Political Announcements FOR COUNTY TREASURER I hereby announce myself as a candidate for the office of County Treasurer on the demo cratic ticket, subject to the action of the electors at the primaries. O. F. Putkrson. “The noble works of God.” general ly have something more pronounced above the shoulders than a wart haired over. Gibson of the dinky is developing into a pronounced humorist. Last week lie dubbed his chief man Friday as “one of the noble works of God.” Gibby is too funny for anything. It seems to be an open question whether the city council or its clerk is running municipal matters in Loup City. Even one of the council men at its last meeting expressed his desire to know just which was it. At the head of these columns will be found the announcement of O. F. Peterson asking for the democratic nomination at the primaries for the otlice of county treasurer. About the most uncivil thing you can sug gest about Otto is his democratic proclivities. lie will prove a strong and swift runner for the nomination. Six candidates for supreme judge under the new non-partisan ; udiciary act have already declared themselves ready to be hit and petitions are now being circulated in Omaha and else where that they may be placed on the official ballot. Judges Iiarnes, Fawcett and Dean are the three judges who retire this year and all are candidates for re-election. Judge E. R. Duffie of Omaha. Judge Francis Hamer of Kearney and John O. Yeiser of Omaha are the other can didates so far announced. The Northwestern had the pleas ure(?) of being represented at the meeting of the city council Tuesday evening and sat in perplexed wonder ment as to really determine which was the head and front of that or ganization. Under the law of com pensation, it seemed to be a fact that the old adage of “He who knows the least talks the most,” was truly in honor at the sitting as the honorable board and its attorney were almost silent spectators while “one of tiie noble I works of God”(hic!) gave the law(!) unto them. It was truly re freshing and worth going miles not to witness. Since he has been governor, Shall enberger has drawn $600 of state money to pay for railroad mileage. Let’s see—in this part of the coun try $1 takes a passenger 50 miles, $10 pays one's fare 500 miles, 8600 w ill cover the expense of transporting a mortal 30,000 miles. Golly, Shelly is quite a traveler, isn't lie? Sixty-two times from one end of the state to the other, or once around the world with a trip from Chicago to San Francisco thrown in'. And it has taken him only four months to make this record! In the words of Uncle Rube as a speeding auto tossed him and his old nag Nell over the hedge row into the neighbor’s potato orchard, "that’s going some.” We almost forgot to state that these new mileage books are good when pre sented by your wife, children and other friends.—Holdrege Citizen. Candidates for the various county offlces are coming to tlie altar of sac rifice. Among-those who are under stood to be like the immortal Barkis’, “willin ,” are mentioned, Louis Rein and Otto Petersen, dems, both of Loup City, for treasurer, but no one so far is offered on the right political side. For sherifi. the Times brings out the names of James Hurvta of Bristol, I* red Dunkerof Scliaupps and Henry Beck of Harrison, dems, for Sheriff Williams’ shoes. Tom Lay of Rockville is mentioned to us by a friend for another try for the county clerkship on the republican side, and the Times hoists the name of S. S. Polski, dem, of Ashton for the same place. E. H. Kittel of Rockville and Emerson Smith of Loup City, demo pops, are mentioned in connection with Peter Rowe, socialist leader, for the county judgship, while many of L ncle Joe Pedler’s friends are urging him to “walk in” to the place. L. H. Currier or Rockville and J. F. Nicko son of Loup City, fus-dems. are both recipients of favorablly mentioned lor county superintendent of schools, but with modern Damon-Pythias con sistency each insist “You first, my dear Alphonse.” Mrs.MaryA K. Hen drickson is also a candidate for that office.. So far, the campaign gives promise of being one of the most hot ly contested in Sherman county for years. The little town of Chapman, Neb., shows what a joyous furore can be aroused when the fires of factional ism get well started. The town has two able-bodied factions which de vote much time to hating and spite fully using each other. Finally, this sPHng, each faction elected a village board, and each board organized and proceeded to transact public business. Now the county attorney threatens to begin suit unless the two boards bet together and abolish ore of the organizations. Altogether Chapman is having a stirring Jtime which be emulated by other towns that rather block growtli and ruin busi ness than tolerate the spirit of peace and fellow consideration.—Beatrice Express. Additional Locals Mrs. Mary Gardner sends the Northwestern to her grandson, Ches ter Hiser, at Coeur de Alene, Idaho. The Misses Catherine and Weibke Pageler of Cedar Bluffs, this state, arrived in this city last evening on a two weeks’ visit with their brothers, Ben and Jack Pageler. Three suspects have been arrested for the bank robbery at Cairo about ten days since. Judge Wall of this city lias been employed in their defense. And they could get no better. W. II. Keller of Rockville township gave us a pleasant financial call this morning. He like all the good far mers of Sherman county feels good over the plenteous moisture of the past week or more. J. B. Flint of Kearney was a pleas ant caller at this otlice today. He arrived here last Saturday to attend the Decoration Day exercises and visit his many friends, returning home tomorrow. Mr. and Mrs. V. C. Browning will this week take possession of a suite of rooms in one of Mrs. Gardner’s cot tages and do light housekeeping. Mr. Browning is the new meat cutter recently employed by Bennett. The stakes for the coming Nebras ka State Fair. September (5 to 10, closed with all eight races tilling satisfactorily. Not less than ten horses were named in any one of the events and the management con cluded to let them all go. Six of them are for 51000 purses. The entries in the last races were ex tremely gratifying. The Lincoln base ball team closed its first series of games at home Thursday and on Friday morning left for I)es Moines for a four game bout. From there they go to Sioux City, returning home by way of Omaha, playing four games at each place. They will reach home June 9th and will engage Sioux City. Des Moines and Omaha four games each at Antelope Park. According to the Genoa Times there is another contest on between the business men and retired farmers of Fullerton. The business men in sist that the main street of the city should be sprinkled at public expense and that all the taxpayers should contribute. The retired farmers say they don't care whether the streets are sprinkled or not: that if the busi ness men want the dust settled they should dig down into their pockets and pay for the work. The quarrel has created much hard feeling and the retired farmers threaten to pat ronize catalogue houses in the future if the council pays the sprinkling bill out of the city funds. The business men answer the threat hurled at them by declaring that they will oppose the candidacy of a bunch of retired agriculturists who are crazy to till the several offices in the court house. A few weeks ago it was whiskey that divided the people of Fullerton into hostile factions: now it's a water issue that confronts them. District $. $.

A TRAP FOR EAVESDROPPERS. Simple Device Well Calculated to In sure Privacy. The eavesdropper, ere applying his ear, applied his eye. Through the keyhole another eye looked coldy into his. He started back, pale with fright. He tiptoed off hurriedly. “I'll lose my job,’’ he muttered. Meanwhile his mistress, the widow, sat with the young and gallant cap tain in the room from whose door the eavesdropper had retreated. A ciga rette smoldered between her slim fin gers and her dimpled elbows were on the table, among the litter of foie gras sandwiches, cold partridge and champagne. The young captain pointed to the door. A hand mirror, its silver-gilt, back towards him, hung from the door knob. “Why did you put that there?” he asked. “It 13 a trap for peepers,” replied the widow. “Suppose my butler or cook stole to the door and put his eye to the keyhole. His eye would meet another eye. Believing himself discovered, he would trot silently away.” The Philosopher of Folly. “A girl will never forgive a man whom she has jilted,” says the Philo sopher of Folly, “if he makes a suc cess in life.” ROAD NOTICE To whom it may concern: The commissioner appointed to view and report on the vacation of a road- commencing at the south line of section fourteen (14). town ship fourteen (14). range fourteen (14) and running thence in a northwesterly direction to the northeast corner of the Atasti n cemetery and terminating at that point, same being a part of road No. '360. has reported in favor of the vacation thereof, and all remonstrance or objections thereto must be tiled In the office of the county clerk of Sherman county, Ne braska, on or before noon of the loth day of July, A.
