Ex-Glerk Gibson
Short $541.05
Court Gives Him Sixty
Days to Make Good.
About a year since, the county in
stituted a suit against Geo. II. Gib
son, ex-county clerk of Sherman
county, for several hundred dollars
of earned fees of the office which he
had failed to account for. The suit
came up for hearing at the following
district court and was carried for
ward to the next court. At that
seseion, it was decided, at the sug
gestion of Judge Hostetler, that an
expert accountant should be secured
to go over the books of the office and
upon his report botli sides should be
appeased, Gibson denying there was
any shortage in his accounts. At the
present term of the district court,
the report of the referee was made
which showed Gibson was short, prin
cipal and interest, $497, which, with
costs to tiie amountof $44.05 made up
a total of $541.05, which the court
entered in judgment against Gibson,
staying execution on the same (>0 days
to enable defendant to make good to
the county. The cost of referee,
amounting to $102 was taxed up to
the county, and there the matter
rests. Had the case gone to a jury
instead of being settled by referee,
the costs would have been enormous
and we feel satisfied the wisdom of
Judge Hostetler will be clearly ap
preciated, even if some at present
feel the cost of referee should have
been taxed to Gibson also. As it is,
the matter has been gone through
with at the minimum expense to
both the county and ex-clerk, and as
Gibson had, through his attorney,
Mr. Thompson of Grand Island,
pledged himself to pay the amount
found by the referee, the county will
be to the good $541.05, instead of
going through an extensive and ex
pensive law suit witli an unknown
quantity in the shape of a jury, and
Gibson may congratulate himself lie
gets o!T on comparatively easy street.
As to tiie Morthwestern’s comments
on the outcome, it will offer none at
this time, being satisfied to allow the
result to speak for itself. If Mr.
Gibson is wise lie will do the same
and -let the matter rest by speedily
‘•Putting it Back” and subsiding
from the role of “Savior of tiie
People.”
Last week the Titnes-Independent
came out with an uncalled for in
sinuation and suggestion to the effect
fiat the republican candidate for
county clerk was a socialist. The
Northwestern washes here to brand
the Times as indulging in what is a
most cowardly as well as uncalled
for assault on Mr. Weare, who is out
as republican nominee for county
clerk, and veiled falsehoods, such as
the Times indulges in, are more con
temptible than direct assertions. Mr.
Weare gives us authority to say that
he is and lias been a republican from
the time he cast ills first vote, and at
no time lias he been a socialist or
with socialistic tendencies. Will the
Times-Independent be fair to Mr.
Weare in its coming issue by giving
him the benefit of this denial?
Upon receipt of the news of the
death of E. H. Ilarriman last Thurs
day afternoon, just 28 minutes after
the demise of the great railioad mag
nate, Agent Collipriest draped the
U. P. depot in mourning habliments;
in commemoration of his chief.
Mr. Walt Weare, republican candi
date for county clerk, was in Loup
City Monday getting acquainted with
the political run of things. Mr.
Weare is an ideal business man and
will prove a most competent countv
clerk.
All reports go to show that the
democratic party in the state is split
to pieces over the county option and
prohibition questions and no chance
to come together. Let us predict
that the democratic party will drop
both questions as though they had
the fervency of a red-hot stove.
Who would have thought that
George H. Gibson would start a
plunderbund all of his own?
The political pot is just starting to
simmer, but it is mostly confined to
tlie governorship so far on botli sides,
although Sullivan, democratic runner
for supreme judge, seems just now to
be causing much trouble in the camp
over his monopolistic tendencies.
Some people seem to try to evade
giving newspapers items concerning
themselves, their comings and goings.
So far as we are concerned, if they
will so courteously inform the report
er they will not be troubled. All we
want is items of interest anyway.
One Loebeok, a n Omaha democrat
proposes to get into the democratic
running for the governorship, and as
an out-and-out county option man at
that. He says he is not afraid of
Hairless Jim or Shallenberger, either.
Go in, Loeby, old boy, and make the
hair fly on Shalle, but you will have
to try some other deal on Baldy.
District court convened here Mon
day noon with Judge Hostetler pre
siding, and as usual with our busi
ness court expedited matters so as to
finish by Wednesday noon. Judge
Hostetler returned from his Alaskan
trip about the middle of August and
expressed himself to the Northwest
ern as considering it one of the
greatest experiences one could have.
As one instance of the country, they
are building a railroad of some 100
miles in length that will cost on an
average of a million dollars a mile,
through mountains and glaciers seem
ingly inaccessible, in order to reach
great copper mines, and this is only
one of many great enterprises. There
are perhaps 50,000 whites and 30,000
Indians there. The valleys are grow
ing wheat and rye and large vege
table gardens here and there furnish
the people with abundant stuff for
table use. The judge traveled as ex
tensively as his seven days’ stay in
Alaska would permit and speaks of
the wonderful growth thus far and
of the glowing prospects of that
great territory.

Something Better”
The Patented Two
Flue Construction, the
facility to heat six griddles
with direct draft damper
open, the quick heating
reservoir and the ease of
heating water in it as
quickly as with a teakettle,
are some of the special
features and qualities of
LAUREL 5TEEL RANGES
that make them what the head line reads.
The Construction of LAUREL Ranges is e:: :e:ne
different from that used in all others. You say, ‘‘Why, tnis cr th
range looks just like a Laurel.” True, but they are not construct
like it. Because of their construction “Laurel” Ranges are bet!
ranges.
We would spell it b-e-s-t if we considered three or mo
degrees of range quality. Recognizing only two Laurel at
contemporary makes—we say “better.” Better steel, better ca.
ings, better nickel plate, better designs, better workmanship, u .
contribute to the making of a better range—The Laurel.
Laurel Ranges will give “better” returns from a give.i
i quantity of fuel and at the same time do better baking.
As “Seeing is believing” an examination of LAUREL
Ranges will convince you that “ Laurel ” features are not to be
found in our advertising only.
