The Northwestern PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY AT THE COUNTY SKAT OEO. E. HEN SC HOT EH. Editor ond Pnblliher TEHMS: —*1.00 PER TEAR, IF PAID IN ADVANCE Entered at the Loup City Postofflee for trans mission through the mails as second claws matter. No, Pete, we was’nt on the floor of that convention. The Times-Independent savs that our “attack on R. J. Nightingale was all uncalled for.” Of course it isnt to he expected that Mr. Night ingale would call for any thing of the kind. Some three weeks ago the Times Independent brought out the names of Yf. R. Mellor for state honors that of candidate for State Auditor, and R. J. Nightingale for County Attorney. Birdsofafeatherroosttigbt together. ' 11 —— The m{inner in which the machine part of tbe Loup City delegation to tbe republican county convention pulled tbe wool over the ejes of the rural district delegates in the select ion of a pop republican central com mittee chairman, was simply a cau tion. It will probably take another sixty days to adjust the matter. Meanwhile we will suggest a remedy. The Loup City delegation to the Republican convention was almost a unit against this paper being repre sented as a delegate to the congress ional convention, simply because we would'nt go wilh tbe gaDg in a tie up for certain candidates. We have never yet had tbe honor of being a delegate to the congressional con vention nor do we wish to have when it becomes necessary to sacrifice honest convictions to get it. Now that the republican conven tion has placed W. It Mellor at the head of the republican county cen tral committee it might be neeessa rv to subscribe for the Times Inde pendent in order to see tbe republic an county convention call, should it appear before next convention time, as Mr. Mellor has been doing all his business for several years past with that paper. Surely he will not take all his paying work to that paper and then bring this work, which ha9 always been publi shed at the expense of the editor and as a compliment to the republican party, to the Northwestern office. Read ers of tbe Times has often seen $ 10.00 to lr».0O legal notices in that paper over Mr. Mellor’s signature that is no longer than a convention call. Republicans, what do you think about it? Do you call this a good straight, clean organization? There are still a few of our readers who do not seem to understand why the Times comes earlier in the week than the Northwertern. If they will compare the date of the two pa pers it will explain itself. The fact is that the Times is published on Thursday and this paper is printed on Friday. The Times made the chaDge from Friday to Thursday some time ago. We have not seen fit to make such a change as it ofted occurs that the latest news of the week is of the most importance, but although we are supposed to be 24 hours later than the Times, yet w* will endeavor always to be on time and to give the latest news possible.

"Don't watch the clock,” was Mr. Edison's advice to a young man who recently asked him how to succeed. Profoundly significant is that old Joke about the laborer who left his pickax hanging in the air at the stroke of noon. A hanging pickax is the fittest emblem for a confirmed clock-watcher —and the pickax hangs always in the air, never digs out a patch for him to advance upon. - ... - - ---— Dslo of State convention at Lin coln, June 18th. Date of L’onpressional convention ut Crawford, June 12th. Dov« and Diver. It seems a long cry from "dove” to "diver,” and yet the two words are one and the same in etymology. Dove was originally a name given to sea gulls (the divers), and only later came to be restricted to its present sense. Even now one of the guillemots (a kind of auk) is called the Greenland dove. Ixion and booby aptly describe the awkwardness and clumsiness of the great northern diver and gannet. City** Mew Kftllrt'ii'l. Damascus, tho oldest city in the world, will scon have in its streets the tracks of a railroad, on which the most modern methods will prevail. For more than 4,000 years the city got along without means of transportation, al though it was enterprising enough to And a place In the Bible and the world's history. Wheat has wrought a change in Damascus now. Its annua! output of the cereal is 10,000,000 bush els. A boom town in the West was never more lively than this relic of the dead past. Oldest Postmitster K<*lgn«. Frank J. Schrleber, who Is believed to be the oldest postmaster in the United States, recently resigned. He has decided that forty-three years' continuous service for Uncle Sam Is enough. He was appointed postmaster of Cruger, Woodford county, Illinois, during President Buchanan's adminis tration. Proposed Memorial to McKinley. The late president was to have laid the corner stone of the Ohio college of government—one of the buildings of the group of toe American university at Washington—and it is probable that the honor will now devolve upon Presi dent Roosevelt. The building will be of marble and will cost $250,000. The suggestion has been made that it shall be a memorial to President McKinley, and that it shall he known as the Mc Kinley memorial Ohio college of gov ernment. PUCKER UP AND WHISTLE. Doctor* Declare the Erai-tlee I* Pro* motlvv of Good Health Another prescription for promoting the health of the general public has 1 een given out by German and bwe <»it;h doctors, who declare that nothing tends more to a robust physical frama than the practice of whistling. But they insist upon a systematic and con stant effort on the part of the benefi ciary. Drill schools have been formed where one of the chief exercises con, sists in lying flat., back downward, on a table and simply breathing and ex pelling air from the lungs with regu larity and vigor. Dumb-bells and In dian clubs have been discarded by the advanced health culturists in those in stitutions. As a method of prolonging life and strengthening the human frame against sickness whistling is said to be beyond compare. Develop ment of chest and neck muscles is one of the special advantages claimed for the exercise. Long, deep breathing is an essential for a good whistler, as It is not permissible to draw In the breath except during the intervals of the pound production. Besides the good that accrues to the performer s general health, there is an advantage in know ing how to whistle well. It is recog nized as a certain form of musical art and as such Is capable of giving pleas ure to the listener.—Chicago Chronicle. ESTIMATE OF EXPENSES.
