The mooted question upon onr
streets at present is the price at
which saloon licenses may be placed
for the coming year. You can hear
all sorts of expressions, but in almost
every instance the expression seems
for a price at least doubling that of
the past few years, namely, 81200 to
81500. This does not come alone from
the temperance element, but is the
almost unanimous talk of the license
element. On the other hand an ex
pression is ascribed to at least two of
the saloonkeepers to the effect that
if the license Is raised to what they
deem an excessive rate they will quit
the business. As the trustees are the
sole arbiter of what the license rate
shall be, it is up to them to decide,
which decision will naturally hinge
upon the concensus of opinion ex
pressed by the voters.

While the Unity club was in session

Last Sunday, north of Arcadia,

principals in an exciting" runaway,
which, however terminated without
injury to either gentlemen, but
demolished their buggy and caused
them to get a farmer to bring them
and their wreck back to Loup City in
the evening. The boys had driven
up north of Arcadia to see certain
parties, when Duffy’s saddle horse,
which they were driving, became
frightened at a passing object and
started to run. Wes jumped out and
caught the animal by the bits, succeed
ing in tearing the bridle off, and the
horse left'free from bit got mad action
on himself and split the air for the
north pole. Duffy concluding it safer

animal ran some two miles further,
ending his career at the farm of a
Mr. Jenkins, where he got mixed up
in a wire fence, reduced the buggy to
kindling wood, and concluded he had
had enough. All in all the boys had
a tine time, tliough Wes had to order

place the one too badly used to be
patched up.
