E<IHur and Publisher TERMS: —tl.00 PBR YEAR, IK PAID IS ADVASCI Entered at the Loup City Postofllce for tram mission through the mails as second class matter. ASHTON IN BRIEF. The editor went to Ashton Iasi Friday afternoon and enjoyed sev eral hours renewing old acquaintance ami making new ones among the many new comers in and around that thriving little village. Ashton is located u. the best farming dis trict in Sherman county. She is surrounded by a class of industrious farmers and is inhabited by enter prising and prosperous merchants and business men. Among the first to great us was E. G. Taylor, who gave us a friendly hand shake as we alighted from the train. Of course Mr. Taylor was not so much of a straDger to us as he frequently comes to the couoty seat and hardly ever failed to make this olflee a call. But there are others whom we used to know but as it had been so long since we bad dropped off at Ashton had almost lust track of them. For instance Mr. Taylor has a brother-in-1 aw. A N. Conklin, by name we believe, although we had almost forgotton the initials. Now that we recall it, Mr. Conklin used to sign his name “Pansy,” for short. He may be more particularly des cribed a* the jolly fat man of Ashton (tlieie are none fatter or jollier.) We found .Mr. Conklin busily engaged in putting up a pen for some thorough-bred chickens for which he paid a handsome price, while Mrs. Conklin and the acommodating clerk, Mr. Wickman, were wailing on the customers at the store Mr. Conklin has an up-to-date stock of goods and we are told has become a heavy land owner in the east part of the county . He is a new subscriber. B. Tuk&czeweaki, for seventeen teats a resident of S terrnau county, and who has a lovely farm, house and barn just east of Ashton was anoth er who gave his name for a new sub scriber. We took occasion also to drop in Oil the euterpnsing harness maker, A BontiDek, who is pleasantly locat ed in a nice brick building ami who is enjoying a good trade. lie not only wanted his name enrolled on our subscription list but stated in a decided way that be believed in ad vertising and emphasized the state ment by giviug us an ad. which will appear next week. U W. Marvel, of the firm of Mar vel & Co. was right busy with his customers when we entered their large store, but he took time to shake hands ai d when the rush was over showed us the interior of his store from cellar to selling. Mr. Marvel is associated with Mr. H. Sraelser in the general merchandise business. They have, by far, the best store building in the county, not even the county seat town bus iness houses excepted. Their store is 40 by 75 feet iu size, with double deck and basement. The basement is full width of the building and about 50 feet long while the uppei deck is conveniently arranged with plenty of floor 9pace on both sides and in the rear. They carry a very large assortment of general mer chaudise. we learueu iiiat asuiuu wno to have a uew Catholic parsonage in the near future. The house is t< cost nearly $2,000.00. Mr Frank Badura and I. M Pol ski, two ex county officials gave us a friendly greeting as we entered their places of business. Mr. Ba dura is another one of the leading merchants of Ashton and I. M. Polskt is at the head of the Bank ol Ashton. They are doin^ a good business. Both ol these gentlemei are ex county treasurers, aDd eael have chosen Ashton as a permaneu1 business location. While Ashton is a very busy towr yet it is not a large place, and so during our short stay we were prtv elaged to see nearly all her citizens Among them were Andrew Gorstka present county supervisor; An tor Kwiatowski, Sum Blumer, justice of the peace and an old pioneer; W II. Sestak, proprietor of the cit; meat marketand a new subscriber t' this paper; John Zink proprietor o the Ashron restaurant; and also ou old friend J. P. Taylor, for year the leading stock buver of the towr Mr. Taylor is the same friendly pet son as when we first know hit many years ago, when we were boy and lie figured as now, prom nently in the up nuilding of th county. Fred Wiekman is anoiln of those pioneers who has stemrac the tide of adversity and is now nea ihe top round of the ladder of pr<>! petit!. Frauk L. Jezewskt aud S Galzewski are two more prominent business men of Ashton, and then again there is Vincent V. Btza who pariicurlariy rt<|uested us to send him a sample copy of this, the of ficial paper of Sherman county, lie is a wagon maker by trade and open ly declared that be was going to stop some of bis foreign papers and support his home paper in the future. But Tmn Jamrog! what of him? Well every body told us, and every thing indicated it, that Tom was one of the busiest men in the burg. Mr. Jamrog lias so enlarged bis hard ware and implement buildings as to hold seveval car loads of goods, and lie has got the goods to fill them. We will venture to say that he has one of the finest lines of goods ever placed in a hardware store in any town the size of Ashton. Theo. Ojendyk, the acoinmodating postmaster and lumber dealer also met us with a smile which made us fed glad that we had taken a day off to see Ashtou Bights and learn Ashton ways. Dr. L. I Bogen, leading druggist and physician of AshtOD. was also one who greeted us with a friendly hand shake. He was deeply absorb ed in a game of chess when we en tered, but he seemed just as glad to se« us as if we wanted a botile of patent medicine or had called with a broken arm. The doctor has not been located at Ashton many years, but nevcr-the less lias established a reputation as physician and surgeon that has secured for him a good prac tice and the confidence of the people. In fact Ashton is all right, her business men are ail right, and her enterprise and push is not to be out done by any of the western towDS. ■ I.... ♦ -W- m -- LINCOLN LETTER Lincoln, Neb., March 23, 1903. Ed. Northwestern: On Friday night the revenue bill came over from the house to the sen at 3 and whs read I he first time, and on Saturday morning it was read the second time ami referred to the com mittee on revenue. From there it will be reported to the senate, Mon day or Tuesday, and will probably be passed by them on Thursday or Friday of this week, with possibly a few minor amendments. There is not much doubt that it will be signed by the governor this week, so prepare to elect a county assessor next year. However, as the law does not con template any change for this year, ami there beit g no emergency clause, it will not become a law in fact until July 1st, which will give ample time to arrange and provide schedules and other matters to begin the new work for the year 1904. Houes roll No. 70, known as the Ramsey Elevator bill, has also passed the house and been read in the sen ate the second time. This is a su perior measure to the Brady bill and will probably be passed by the senate in a few days. It has the emergency clauge and will go into effect at once, so the farmers may begin the build ing of elevators as soon ss they desire. By a clever maneuver, Represent ative Rouse of Hall county got a resolution through the house. Friday afternoon, that the appropriation bills should be the business of that body until they were all passed, meaning the four large ones, provid ing salaries and expenses tor the state and its institutions for the next two years. This probably means the adjournment of the legislature not later than Anril 4th, as it gets out of the way all necessary legislation in time to give the senate an oppcr tunny to pass them without holding over past the sixty day limit. The house does not seem to care about passiog many of the senate's bills. So far, twenty-three bills have been enacted into laws, only three of which were senate files, while there are some 1 forty senate files in the bands of the ' house. The present outlook is that but few more measures will get to the governor for his signature than i are absolutely necessary to care foi ■ the iuteresis of the state. There are a few bills, known as , personal spite measures, still on 'he [ calendar, but with small prospects ol r success, for neither house seems t<: 3 care to take up quarrels or personal ' matters that will provoke a contro versy. And especially is this so it » the senate, as ttiev now have tin - heavy part of the session s work he fore thorn, and the sitting committer j seems determined to recommend only r important measures to their body, i | The senate, on Friday, indefinitely >•' postponed ihe“L*ndlord'a Lien'' bill a measure that lias been before every legislature for tbe past sixteen year*, ami bits been tbe cause of defeating for a second term every man who in troduied it; and well it ougat, as it, by law, forces a chattel mortgage iiu every renter for not,only the crop hut iiis stock and farming utentils as soou as he takes possession of the place. There is always a tendency of the stronger and wealthier people to en croach upon and bind np by taw the unfortunate or poor, hut so far this session they have received no en couragement at the hands of this legislature, and no one has been more watchful and vigorous iu the inter ests of the common classes than Sen ator Wall, who is ever readv, in the committee room or on the floor, to ilt fend and protect them. The measures to re apportion the state into judicial and legislative dis tricts are not meeting with pro nounced success, as they will piovoke considerable debate, and neither body will have time to give them the attention they require. Senator Wall's pure food bills are on special file, having been placed there by the sifting committee, and will probably receive the attention of the senate this week. Noryb. Wlial’s In a Name?
