How Do You Wear It?
Religion? Yes? Every Sunday you
In a certain churth and a certain pew,
With a solemn lace and with earnest eyes
Hear the preacher tell about paradise—
And you think great thoughts while the
anthems roll.
And you feel a grace in your inward soul.
Religion? Yes? Is it something that
Goes with long frock coat and with high silk
hat?
On the six week days is your conscience mute?
Uo you put it on with your Sunday suit?
Of course one knows that on Sabbath day
He must put the wiles of the world away,
And must view all folk with a kindly scan.
And must have some thought of his brother
'man—
For t'e stores are closed, and the banks are
shut;
j It is through the week the coupons are cut:
l It is througu the week that we grub for pelf
And the man who works has to think of self—
But religion? Ah, when the day is here
Do you put it on with your Sunday gear?
Do you take it down from a wardrobe hook.
From a sheltered place in a quiet nook? 1
Do you keep it nice, while the week goes
through.
Till on Sunday morn it looks neat and new,
And no one who sees you wolld ever guess
You would wear such a garb to your busi
. ness ?
Has it neither wrinkle, nor speck of dust,
Nor a hidden patch, nor a trace of rust?
Do you keep it spick, and serene, and fair—
Do you put it on with your Sunday wear?
Do you keep it free trom your Monday scowl.
From your Tuesday rush and your Wednes
day growl.
From your Thursday sneer and your Friday
frown.
And the Saturday scheme that you work
down town?
Your religion? Yes? Can t you make it mix 1
With the Sabbath day and the other six?
Do you you carry it through the dust and mire.
Or assume its grace neath the high church
spire?
On the six week days is your conscience
mute—
Do you put it on frith your Sunday suit?
— W. D. Nesbit in Chicago Tribune.
From all sections of Slier man coun
ty, and in fact from every where eoire
reports of excellent crop prospects.
Gamblers in wheat on the Chicago
board of trade last Thursday pushed
wheat above the dollar notch again.
Bro. Cooley has leased his Arcadia
Champion to J. A. Burgett and taken
up other work for a time. Cooley is
a live newspaper man and Burgett
will have to get a hustle on him
get up as newsy a paper as Cooley
published.
Owing to the big strike of tele
graphic operators at San Francisco
and the possibility of the infection
spreading over the entire county,
President Roosevelt has been asked
to investigate the matter and lias
taken steps to do so.
How many causalities will we have
to report in this section from the
dangerous use of fireworks today.
Many towns have issued orders
against their firing within corpo
ration limits. Speed the day when
we may have sane Fourths, which
means entire abolition of the deadly
tilings.
If you want to avoid the 3-cent
railroad fare at present between Ne
braska and Iowa, as at present worked
by the railroads, you want to buy a
ticket to Omaha, take the street cars
over to Council Bluffs aud from there
purchase your ticket to Iowa points,
otherwise you will pay 3 cents per
mile the entire distance. A trick Df
of the roads, see?
A far reaching decision on the liq
uor traffic was handed down by the
Indiana state supreme court, that
bady declaring that the sale of in
toxicants is lawful and therefore con
stitutional unless declared unlawful
by the state itself. The court also
affirmed the right of a city to limit
the liquor traffic to prescribed dis
tricts such as the business portion of
the town.
Gov. Hughes of New York is seem
ingly bound to discredit his own
administration by ill-favored ex
ecutive acts. A short time since he
vetoed the 2-cent passenger rate l»,w
in his state and now caps his presi
dential prospects by vetoing a ll.w
granting state pensions to civil war
veterans. He begins to assume the
proportions of a Grover Cleveland
in the eyes of the people.
Late telegraphic reports have it
that the eastern roads will accept
the 2-cent rate and put it into eff<ct
on interstate travel as well as la ail
state rates. The fact is patent that
the 2-cent passenger rate has come to
stay, and it is only a question of time
till such is the case from seaboard to
seaboard, and from Canada to the
gulf, and the sooner the railronds

Last week we mentioned several
Loup City business men who had
gone on a trip down into Colorado,
speculatively inclined. This week
nearly all have returned, and by the
way, we believe all have invested to
a greater or less extent in land in the
Montezuma valley. A copy of the
Journal published at the town of
Montezuma contains over three col
umns of items concerning our travel
ers and of the investments they made
while there. The biggest deal was
the purchase by E. G. Taylor, A. P.
Culley, C. Bradley and W. D. Zim
merman, in company with local in
vestors, of the Gollaway ranch of 187
acres, 55 acres of which is in a solid
bearing orchard, the price paid being
*15,000. August Jaeschke bought a
quarter section, Richard Baker pur
chased a half section for *6,000, E. G.
Taylor became the owner of a quar
ter section at *4,500, Messrs. Culley
and Bradley jointly secured a tine
tract of land, and B. J. Swanson pur
chased an 80-acre well cultivated
tract adjoining the town, and as the
paper says with the intention of mov
ing thereon at an early day, and the
paper speaks of still an additional
tract of 120 acris just north of
Montezuma purchased by the bankers
of the party, at the handsome sum of
*4,000 The paper also mentions the
fact that the sons of Dick Baker will
go there to improve their father’s
holdings. The above is about the
biggest collection of deals made by
Loup City business men away from
home this season, and Montezuma
may congratulate itself on the fact
that the bunch represents some of
the cream of the financial interests
of this city and county.
