C. Chamberlain, Thomas Burton, John Mathew son. Committee, Last week we stated on authority of the Lincoln Star that tbe assessment of Sherman county was passed apon by the state board of equalization and pro nounced satisfactory. Later the coun ty clerk received word from the state board that the assessment had been raised 10 per cent. We stand corrected. The Populist county convention met here Monday Owing to so much other matters of interest preceding it, we can only give it abreviated notice George Lee was made chairman and Editor Brown was made secretary. Representa tive E. H. Kittell received the unani mous re-nomination for that office. H. M. Mathew was nominated for county attorney. T. S. Nightingale was made chairman of the county central com mittee Messrs. Emry, Long, Kittell, Gowin, Brammer, Godfrey, Christian sen and Hendrickson are delegates to the state convention; Messrs. Minshull, McDowell. Slote, Badura, Neilson and Brammer to the congressional, and Messrs. Emry, Brown, Peters.WincbeJl, Chapman and Angier to the senatorial conventions. Delgates were present from ten townships. E. A. Draper was appoined senatorial committeeman for this county. We would have been glad to give the proceedings in detail, but space positively forbids. Over in low a last week occurred a newspaper change that is of much in terest to the editor of this paper. The Tingley Vindicator, a bright paper in a lively town in Ringgold county, Inis been purchased by the editor’s younger brother, W. E. Burleigh, from D. W. Watsabsugh, who learned the art prer servatjve under our guidance way back in the 80s, who has made a success of the business, but who has been com-: l»elled to sell on acpount of ill health. In doing so, he has disposed of the j ar per to our brother, who is accounted one of the best equipped country new s paper men in the state. The brother mentioned was for years connected with us in the publishing of the Mt. Ayr Journal, in the same county, and afterwards publshed the Ilazelton Ex press,, In Soutnern Kansas, later on dis posing of that paper and of late years being connected with the Semi-Weekly New’s in his old home at Mt, Ayr, Brother Ed has the make-up of a first class newspaper man and has been tried and not found wanting in all de partment of newspaper life. We pre dict for him success in his new venture, which occurs where he is best known and most thoroughly appreciated 1 Shortest Session on Record. The shortest session of District Court in the history of Sherman county was held here last Tuesday. Court con vened at 9 a.m., heard half a dozen cases and adjourned sine die at 12 o'clock. Motions in the Houser road case, also in the Ilowe road c:ise, both being injunction cases, were heard and cases put over to the October term. The two divorce cases w ere not called, parties not present, so four more hearts w ill beat as two for sixty days, longer. A Serious Accident. A serious accident happened last Thursday to Geo McFadden's 17-year -old son. Kay, near their home a few miles west of Loup City. The boy was riding a horse from a neighboring farm, when in some unaccountable manner he was thrown from the horse and hurt about the head, the injury rendering him unable later to give any account of how it accurred. When first seen after the accident, he was leading the animal, which was dragging itself along with a badly wrenched back,while the l»oy w as unable to give any account of himself or the accident. It is sup posed that he was riding along when the horse must have stepped in a hole, stumbled, throwing itself and the boy to the ground, resulting as aforesaid Dr. Jones was called and made the boy as easy as possible, and he will recover eventually, but is seemingly unable to account foj the accident.
