Shipley,} living a few miles north - f Litchfield, last Thursday brought in to our elevators something over 2<m> bushels of oats, for which he received Dc per bushel. These are republican prices. 1 See? Friend Shiplev took occasion to deposit enough of the republican oats money to insuae another year of Northwestern. Tiianks. The game of foot-ball last Sat urday afternoon at the hall park in this city between the home team and Mason City, was a hotly contested game and very interesting, though rather dis appointing in tne home boys being defeated. However, the third time i the charm, and we surely expect m t' phithe laurels of victory in the next wrestling match with the ubiquitous sphere. "Cyclone" Davis, an importation from Texas, spoke for the democrats at the opera house to a big crowd last evening, the fact of his heavy adver tising and title bringing out hundreds of the curious. He was a very enter taining talker, a good actor and pleased the funny bone of each hearer but said nothing but what all had heard such calamity howlers belch! forth each succeeding campaign. Mr. and Mrs. James Johansen gave a dinner last Sundav to Mr. and Mrs. i J- S. I'edler. Dr. S. A. Allen and W. I). Zimmerman. They had in tended giving the dinner to a number of our most eligible bachelors, but Cupid has been so industriously at; work on the game of hearts of late j that only two were to be summoned for the occasion, so the marriage ! license judge was called in to till up the gap and perchance have sufficient influence in his official capacity to; cure the above named incorrigibles of their failings. We had the pleasure yesterday of j •again meetingGrandmaColiins, widow of the Rev. A. Collins, fine of the early Methodist ministers at Loup City way back 25 or 30 years ago. Grandma Collins was here to attend the 25th anniversary of the formation of the Methodise society and is visit ing her many friends. Mrs. Collins and her deceased husband were friends of the editor's father and mother in early Iowa times when all were young folks, and the friendship thus formed lasted between the two grand old men till the Master called them, and. still exists between the grand motners in Israel, whose silvered hair betokens only a few more days till they, too. shall hear the Master's voice and lie called to join the loved ones gone before.

But for a man to go to a grocery store to have a measure taken for a suit of clothes, what can he expect? Wedding Bells. A quiet little wedding took place Tuesday evening, Oct. 27, 1908, at the residence of the bride's parents in this city, when our young friend. Lou M. Williams, the energetic carrier on II. F. I). No. J. was united in wedlock to Miss Ella X. Foster, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. F. Foster, the ceremony taking place at s o'clock, Rev. J. O. Hawk officiating, only the immediate families being present. The young people rather stole the inarch on their host of friends here, who while expecting cupid's work to culminate in the uniting of their lives at an early date, yet were unprepared for the surprise on the evening mentioned. Howbeit, all will unite with the Northwestern in wishing for them all of the joys of a happy married life and prosperity unlimited. Married, last (Wednesday) evening, at the home of W. C. Wharton in this city, County Judge I’edler officiating, W. H. Simpson and Miss Soplironia Wharton, both of Loup City. Cupid seems bent on giving surprises, this being the second marriage this week of estimable young people of this city in w hich stolen marches were made on their friends. But then, the little winged god does not always have to give advance advertising of the time when lie welds in bonds of wedlock hearts cemented long tie fore. The Northwestern wishes much happiness and prosperity in all ways to both Mr. Simpson and his charming bride. Tiie Loup City Mercantile Co. gives a nice book slate to every school child purchasing a pair of Star Brand shoes. The numerous friends-of Miss Lucy A.

McNulty & Machoski (Advertisement.) For County Attorney To the Republican Read ers of the Loup City Northwestern . The County Attorney's office is an important one for the reason that at any time he may be called upon to avenge a great public wrong or to defend the public treasury. In select ing an attorney for your county, should you not use the same discretion as you would in selecting an attorney for your own private business? If you were hiring a lawyer you would not turn down a competent and trust worthy man because he was not of your political faith. Many of you have honored me by entrusting your private law business to me. If. then, I am competent to look after your own la* business, why would it not be advisable to give me your vote, even though I am not a republican and thus re-elect me as attorney for this county? Hoping you will givethis your care ful consideration. Yours Truly, It. II. Mathew. Mrs. B. K. Schaffer of Curtis, Neb., arrived last week Wednesday ♦ a visit to her parents, Mr. arid Mrs. T. A.
