The primary farce in some pre

county it cost as high as $5 per vote
in some townships. It is estimated
that the primaries this year will cost
the taxpayers of Nebraska more than

The writer is grandpa again, for the

editor of the Meeteetse (Wyo.) Index,
presented her husband with the third
boy. That’s ail right, and we feel
proud enough over our extended title
of grandpa, but what we kick about
is our information bureau. When
the first hoy came, vvegot a telegram.
Wiien the second boy came, we re
ceived a latter stating the auspicious
event. This time we had to get the
news fiom the Index, published by
the boy’s papa. If our son-in-law
were not a giant in stature and
weighed but little less than a ton,
lie would be called to account. But
then his excuse would be that the
arrival was on publication day, and
being an editor, the writer sees a
very good excuse.

OBITUARIES
Geo. W, Dinsdale
Tills community was inexpressibly
shocked lost Saturday by the news of
the death of Mr. Geo. W. Dinsdale,
which occurred that morning about
i>:30, by a fall from a haystack at his
home near Palmer, death beingalmost
instantaneous. He was on top of the
stack, which was being topped off,
when in avoiding the sweep of the
stacker he lost his balance, falling to
the ground on his head and shoulders,
crushing the upper bones of his chest
as well as breaking his neck. The
funeral occurred from the home at
Palmer Tuesday, awaiting the arrival
of his daughter who was visiting on
the Pacific Coast, Rev. Taylor of the
Plpiscopal diocese celebrating the rites
of the church, followed by a sermon
from Rev. John Henderson of Central
City, former Methodist minister at
Palmer. George W. Dinsdale was
born in Gayle, Yorkshire, England,
in April, 1850. He was married to
Anna P. Greenwood in 1881, and in
1882, with his wife came to this coun
try, first settling in the vicinity of
Omaha, and about 27 years ago com
ing to near Fullerton, thence to Pal
mer, where the family has since
resided. P'our children have been
born to this union—Robert, Thomas,
Elizabeth and George, who with the
wife and mother still survive him.
Mr. Dinsdale was one of the most
extensive stock feeders and shippers
of the state. Loup City being one of
his principal feeding points, and was
considered one of the biggest land
owners of this portion of the state,
owning some 3,000 acres in Sherman
county, and a number of thousands
of acres elsewhere. He sold one lot
of land recently for $44,000. He has
been engaged in feeding from this
point for the past seven years, and
was one of the most satisfactory busi
ness men to deal with ever known
here, and counted his friends by the
number of those whom he met in
social or business relations. The
Northwestern, in common with our
entire people, regret the untimely
demise of this good man.
Fred Thode
On Tuesday morning of this week.
August 31st, 1909, at 5 o’clock, oc
curred the death of Mr. Fred Thode.
at the home of his son, Mr. Peter
Thode, some four miles north of
Loup City, of paralysis, aged 69 years,
2 months and 21 days. Mr. Thode
was stricken with paralysis perhaps
a year and a half ago and has been
for the past few months a confirmed
invalid. Ilis wonderful constitution
had battled successfully with the
Grim Destroyer for a long time, and
all-that loving lands could do to re
lieve his sufferings, but tired nature
at last sucummbed on Tuesday morn
ing and lie passed to his reward. Mr.
Thode was born in Germany and was
one of Sherman county’s oldest
settlers. The fuueral occurred yes
terday (Wednesday) afternoon from
the residence, under the auspices of
the Germania Verein: interment in
Evergreen cemetery. The family
have the sympathy of their host of
friends in their bereavement. We
were promised a complete data of the
life of Mr. Thode, but have failed to
receive it in time for this week's
issue, and will try and give the same
next week.
Mrs. Julius Aboliinski
Mrs. Julius Abolinski, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Dembowski of Oak
Creek, died early last Friday morn
ing, August 27th, at the home of her
parents where she had been taken the
day previous after a prolonged illness.
The funeral was held from St. Joseph’s
church Saturday, with interment in
the Catholic cemetery. She leaves
a husband and small son, besides her
parents and several brothers and
sisters who have the heartfelt sym
pathy of all in their irreparable loss.
Word was received here Tuesday of
the death at Cheyenne of Mr. Jack
Parsons of typhoid fever on the day
previous. Mrs. Parsons was formerly
a Miss Knapp of this county, sister
of Mrs. Geo. Peterson and L. E. Knapp
of Logan township. It will be re
membered Mr. Peterson and two of

Letter from Far West
The following letter is received
from H. M. Walker and family, for
merly of this city, and who moved to
Washington last spring:
Medical Lake, Wash , A ug. 27,1909
Dear Editor: As has long been
promised I will write you a letter
concerning our new home. We live
about an hour’s ride on the electric
from the center of the beautiful city
of Spokane. We are located on a
dairy farm. In our immediate neigh
borhood there is not so many trees
although there has been a good many,
but farther west there are great num
bers of pine trees. Wheat is raised
extensively here and from our door
way we can see a combined harvester
at work. Twenty-five horses are re
quired to pull it. This is also a fruit
district combined with dairying.
This is a beautiful country, but if it
were not for the pines it would not
be so delightful. In taking a ride
in the country in summer it seems as
though nature had Conned her most
beautiful robe purposely for the oc
casion. But there is one thing that
mars the beauty of the country and
that is what they call “scab rock.”
In the pastures and wheat fields
there are spots that are perfectly
barren and covered with large rocks.
Medical Lake is a suburb of Spokane,
where thousands of people from the
city come every summer, ine lase
is quite large and as its name in
dicates is used for medical purposes.
It is said that the waters of the lake
will entirely cure rheumatism, but
the majority of the people come out
for enjoyment. Small steamboats
sail on the lake, besides a few sail
boats and many rowboats. Fish can
not live in the lake. The lake is
almost the shape of a horseshoe and
on the island in the center is located
the State Insane Asylum, also the
Home for the Feeble-minded is locat
ed there. I noticed in your paper
that Rev. Hawk and family are to
move to Washington. 1 hope that
we may see them soon. Give my love
to all my schoolmates and teacher.
Yours sincerely, Ella Walkek.
It is the tallest corn story of the
season and is being told among the
traveling men over the state. It is
said to have been in a letter written
home by an eastern visitor: “Most
of the Nebraska streets are paved,
grains of corn being used for cobble
stones, while the cobs are hollowed
out for sewer pipes. The husk, when
taken oil whole and stood on end,
makes a nice tent for the children to
play in. It sounds queer to hear the
feed man tell the driver to take a
dozen grains of horse feed over to
Jackson’s livery stable. If it were
not for the soft, deep soil here I
don’t see how they would grow up as
high in the air as a Methodist church
steeple. However, when the ears get
too heavy, their weight presses the
stalk down in the ground on an
average of 92 feet and thus brings
she ear near enough to the ground to
be chopped off with an as.”—North
I’latte Telegraph.

Do you like to wash cream cans?
If you do not, bring your cream to
the creamery where your cans will be '
washed and thoroughly sterilized, i
This is the only way to properly clean
a cream can. as it kills all bacteria.
Also bear in mind that if it hadn’t,
been for us. you would have been
