According to the late census. Khode

past few days.
President Taft has started his

j Champ Clark lias made good headway
for tiie democratic nomination for

A tlie present primary law. is out in
favor of a return to tlie primary
system inaugurated by tiie republi
cans ano taken off by the democratic
substitute enacted by tiie Bourbons
at the last session of tlie legislature.
But even if there is a return to tlie
old primary system, there will have
to be some drastic amendments, with
penalties, to prevent voters with
seared consciences and little truth
fulness from helping parties of oppos
ite Doliticai belief to select their
candidates. Here in the Loup City
primaries we know of men who called
for republican tickets, who were
deyd-ln-the-wooi democrats, and vot
ed that ticket at tiie primaries.
Tlie re should be some system devised
bo prevent such work, or tlie proposed
cuange back to tlie former system
will be of no effect in fact—at least
in some voting precincts.
Good Health Resolutions
"Resolution Number One: I will
try to become more intelligent con
cerning my body." says I>octor Jean
Williams in Woman's Home Com
panion for January, “looking with
greater respect upon my physical re
sources and trying to realize more
fully that upon them the force and
success of my life largely depend.
"Resolution Number Two: I will
arrange, if possible, to supply suf
ficient pure air for every breath 1
take, thus better to combat every
source of disease that might attack
me. to improve my chance for long
dfe and to increase my efficiency.
“Resolution Number Three: I will
be kinder to my digestive organs,
avoiding all excess and not asking
them to struggle with food for which
they have repeatedly shown antago
nism.
“Resolution Number Four: I will
treat my brain and nervous system
with grrater consideration, and fifty
slx hours of each week shall be de
voted to sleep.
“Resolution Number Five: I will
try to do in eight 1 tours as muchpiard
work as 1 sliould do in one day.
“Resolution Number Six: I will
devote at least two of the twenty
four hours to such exercise as 1 find
m «st beneficial.
“Resolution Number Seven: I will
five my moral support to every effort,
public or private, in behalf of the
betterment of health conditions, so
becoming a small factor in tbe great
movement for moral and physical
npiift.'’
.
It. was some blizzard. Early last
Sunday morning brought to this sec
tion and to all Nebraska and over the
entire west, one of the severest bliz
zards that has visited us in years.
Commencing about midnight, the
wind reached the velocity of a hurri
cane. tilling the air with a blinding
snow, continuing all day Sunday and
nearly all of Sunday night, easing otf
toward morning, the thermometer
sinking to 20 degrees below. The
storm was of such magnitude and
ferocity that everywhere there was a
chance great drifts of snow resulted,
blockading railroads, and causing a
general suspension of business on all
the main and branch lines. Monday
morning's passenger from Sargent on
the B. & M. came in but a little late,
but when it got to a point about a
mile the other side of Farwell it con
cluded to rest a season after being
introduced to a big cut packed with
snow, where it remained all day Mon
day and Monday night and up to
a o’clock Tuesday morning, when a
snow plow came to the assistance of
the belated train. Before that, how
ever. the passenger engine had suc
cumbed to the weather and froze in
it's tracks and it was II o'clock Tues
dav morning before it was able to
resume it's journey to Lincoln. On
the train were a number of our Loup
City students returning to their
college duties, who undoubtedly can
a tale unfold rivaling the Arabian
Nights, so to speak.
Monday night on the Union Pacific
here came a tale of woe. Two engines
pushing a snow plow had reached
here and after rounding the “Y”, a
broken rail in the yards ditched the
whole thing. A wrecking crew came
up early in the morning and succeed
ed in getting the engines back on the
track a little before noon, allowing
the motor to make its journey to
St. Paul, where a train was scheduled
to meet it and take the passengers
on to the Island.
The trainmen brought in some
grievious tales of the condition on the
main line, especially at Grand Island,
where it was claimed some fifteen
passenger trains were tied up Mon
day, and over the yards some 27 big
mogul engines frozen up and the
roundhouses filled besides—the worst
tie-up in years.
The thermometers Monday morning
registered 20 to 22 degrees below, and
Tuesday morning registered from 28
to 3o degrees below. However, the
absence of wind Tuesday night made
it seem much warmer. Had there
been the high wind of Monday night,
it is not difficult to realize the dis
aster it would have meant to live
stock. We mention a few of our
farmer friends who have lost numbers
of hogs by last Sunday's blizzard:
Marsel Youngquest, D. L. Jacoby and
H. Hauhard, who each lost several
hogs. J ust across the Valley county
line. Harley McCall lost fifteen head
of hogs. Jack John lost eight hogs
and Lem Richardson lost a mare.
E. Holcomb in Ohio
Cortland, Ohio, Dec. 31, 1910.—To
Friends at home in LoupCity: Think
ng that some might like to hear from
ne, 1 will write you.
I left Loup City the 19th, was in
Jmaha twelve hours, and stopped in
?hicago twenty-four hours, where I
was entertained in the 120,000-home
)f .Mrs. Walworth and daughter. In
lue time, we took in the elevated
railroad and visited Marshall Field’s
store, it being the largest one of it's
Kind in the world, twelve stories
ibove the surface and three below.
To say that everything is grand is
inly a feeble way to express it. I will
inly mention a few things I saw. The
[‘aim room was one of grandeur and
beauty and in the center was a fount
ain with a 25-foot base, with palm
drees all around it and large pots of
(lowers in bloom scattered among the
trees. Everything was just grand.
One room was expressly fitted for the
amusement of children. Another
room for people to rest and to meet
their friends, and still another where
you can order a meal for yourself and
friends and can pay several dollars a
plate.
We next visited the Masonic temple
22 stories high, with plenty of offices
that bring in a fine revenue.
We next called at a Chinese restau
rant that cost 1125,000; the furniture
and fixtures all inlaid with pearl. The
most popular dish at present is called
•‘chop suey,” a little of everything
and then some more mixed together.
Some people think it very fine. They
know how to prepare and trim the
dishes and if you wish it will cost you
S5 a plate, but I didn’t have that
kind of an appetite.
We next called at McVicar's. It
was fine. I was next armed with 8
fine lunch and left for my sister's at
this place.
I find great changes since I left
here thirty-three years ago: so many
dead.
It has either rained or snowed every
day since I came, until today. There
is considerable doing here in the line
of pleasure—somewhere to go all the
time. Big funeral this afternoon and
tonight one of Billy Sunday’s con
verts speaks. Some good property
can be bought here for less than cost
I am a star boarder now, nothing^
do, plenty to eat, never miss a mea
nor pay a cent. Very kindly yours,
E. Holcomb.

Dear Sir: “1 ain sending you in this,

The Northwestern. Winter com
menced here a little over a week ago,
but it isn’t like a Nebraska winter.
It snows nights and thaws daytimes,
and usually there isn’t enough wind
to blow the snow off from the trees.
If we had windmills here they would
be on a strike most of the time. Most
of the time one day is so like an
other, week in and week out, that it
is hard to keep track of the days of
the week—Monday is just like Sun
day, Tuesday just like Monday, Wed
nesday just like Tuesday, and so on,
and Saturday just like all the rest of
the days of the week, and this week
just like last week. There's quite a
number of Sherman county people in
this valley, but as they are badly
scattered I don't see any of them
very often, but as far as I know they
are all well, and I know they are not
grumbliDg about the climate. Yours,
E. H. Kittell.
