BURLEIGH. Ed. and Pub. Roosevelt’s plurality in Nebraska is only 84,833. Gov. Mickey wins by 9,153, in spite of the bitter fight; made on him. It is claimed Senator Spooner of Wisconsin is slated for attorney general. A Roosevelt critic describes the president as a “steam engine in breeches.” To be exact, the electoral vote now stands: Roosevelt 336, Parker 140, with Maryland to hear from. Roosevelt carried every county in Nebraska. How is this for the old, former pop-ridden and Bryan strong hold? The Republican state central com mittee are to be commended for washing their dirty linen after the campaign closed. Even the national prohibition par ty has its interncine war and a Kil kenny cat tight is now going on in national committee over misappro priation of funds. Oh, fudge! Here’s a sample pop whine from the St. Paul Phono graph Press, well named, isn’t it: “Can you dodge one-third your tax es? That is what the railroads are doing.” When, how, where? Is the Republican party responsi ble for the Burlington’s fight against their tax assessment? If so, are the pops to be given credit for the U. P. and Northwestern’s acquiescence and voluntariness in paying their assessment? Did you ever read a pop paper that was not whining over some thing and giving forth pessimistic editoiial utterances as its princi pal stock in trade? On the oth er hand, are not Republicans al ways and forever looking on the roseate side of life’s picture and adding bright, optimistic tint9? Which makes one happier, optimism or pessimism? Bury old Grannv Grunt. Tom Tibbies, in answering the question, “What will Bryan do?” says he will live and die in the dem cratic party; that if there were only four left—Cleveland, Hill and Par ker as three, Bryan would be the fourth, etc., and a lot more ol roast for the cross of gold man. Tomy rot! From Biyan,g antics of late, it may be assured he will be fonnu where he can gull the unsophistica ted out of the most money and gain the most notoriety for himself. The populist press found a sugar teat to nurse their disarranged, dis ordered and distorted visions upon right after election in the refusal of the Burlington to pay its assessed taxation. They must of necessity have a rag to chew after their in glorious defeat, and we are glad the Burlington furnished the consola tion, as the greater the height the harder the bump when they reach terre firrna, as will be their case in the Burlington's defeat. The popo pres3 die hard, but their foundation has scarely a foothold left or a peg to hang upon. County treasurers all over the state, with very few exceptions, are refusing the partial tender of taxes offered by the B. & M in payment for their taxes. A few, we only know of one, treasurers have accept ed the amount offered, and credited as part payment We understand the Union Pacific and Northwestern will pay their taxes without protest, allov. ing the Burlington to go it alone in its fight on the assessment. The Burlington will find it has an up-hill route to travel and will pay in the end every dollar of its just taxes like common mortals. Otlewski-Szydzik. A pretty wedding occurred Mon day morning of this week at the Catholic church, being the marriage of Miss Sophia Otlewski, second daughter of Frank Otlewski, one of our most prominent Polish citizens, to Mr. Andrew Szydzik. The cere mony was conducted by Father Radka, the Polish priest of Ashton. The bride was gowned in cream dotted crepe de chien insert, with lace and carried a bouquet of bride’s roses. She was attended by the Misses Katie Dietz and Victoria Szydzik. The groom was support ed by Messrs. R. Ivowalewski and Anton Szydzik. Following the cer emony an elaborate dinner was served at the home of the bride’s parents north of the city, followed by a dance, to which Rome two hun dred guests were invited and a royal time was had. The home of the happy ;>air will be 3 miles south east of Loup City. Bad Fire at Dannebrog—Clerk Burned to Death. Last night, Thursday, about 11:30 o’clock, the hardware store of M. A. Madsen was discovered to be on fire. The building is situat ed between Hald <fc Winchester’s store and the lumber yard. The firemen w’ere soon on hand and soon had a stream of water playing on the building. The tire had gotten such a start that that they could not save the building, and they turned their attention to saving the adjoining property. Some idea of the effectiveness of their work can be drawn from the fact that the lumber yard building was but two feet from the burning building and they saved the lumber yard. This speaks well for the tire department of that thriving little city. The origin of the fire is not known, but it is supposed the new tinner em ployed by Madsen, who slept in the building, went home under the in fluence of liquor and overturned the lamp. At least he was burned to death in the building. Little is known of him except that his name is Niels Christensen and that he came trom Denmark last spring with Mark Holm. He was about thirty years of age. The building was valued at #1,500 and the stock at $3,000, partly covered by insur ance.—St. Paul Phonograph and Press. There will be a social gathering at the Baptist church on Tuesday evening Nov. 29th, 04, the object of which will be ss a welcome to Bro. Wold, the pas tor of the church, and as a means of getting better aquainted with Bro. and his family, and better aquainted with our selves. Ihe gathering will also partake of the nature of a donation party. Those feeling so inclined can bring any offering they may wish to' make for the benefit of Bro. Wold. The entertainment will consist of reci tations, songs and a general good time, but the main object will be the social part, and let all come with that object in view. All are cordially invited to come and enjoy themselves.
