Ed. and Pnb ANNOUNCEMENTS Fer Ceunty Attorney I hereby ennounce myself es s candidate for the Republican nomination to the office of County Attorney at the primary eleetion to be held on April 17th 11*12. and I respectfully re quest your rote and your active support if you approve of my candldacv HEUUEET S. NlllHTlMll ALE. Only ten weeks before the prima ries -April 19. And then we will all know about it. It is asserted that the primary ballot tiiis coming April will contain over 200 names of candidates and will be at least eight feet long. Great Caesar! But just think of the printer and tiie work it will make him. Bro. Beushausen of the Times lias tilled as a democratic candidate for elector in this Big Sixth district. We reallv know of no democrat we had rather vote for. or who will take greatest pleasure than he in casting his vote for the Aunty Democracy favorite. Editor H. G. Taylor of the Centra. City Nonpareil has come out as a candidate for railway commissioner, subject to the republican primary vote. He is a red-hot, or hotter, La Follette man and should get the vote: of those who aim their votes that way. Besides he is an editor and that helps some. A gentleman by the name of Clyde Wright, delivered a Socialist speech at Society Hall here Monday evening of this week. He was here some months since and we understand is ; well versed in his political attitude. Titose who attended the meeting speak very highly of the lecture, even if they did not take an? stock in the doctrine propounded. There are at least live candidates who have tilled for land commissioner besides our own W. S. Waite. But there's not one of the live for whom Wilbur will Waite and as we know him to be a good sprinter and the best man up for that office, we ex pect to see them all wait till after ; Waite waltes on the public in that office at least two terms. The Grand Island Independent is feminst S. C. Bassett of Gibbon for land commissioner and does not mince words in the matter. It will be re membered Mr. Bassett was out ind ! out against capital removal at the last session of the legislature, and tliat may have some bearing on the Inde pendent's attitude. The paper pro phetically says Mr. Bassett will need all the votes he can get and the some at least in that vicinity. It really does take a little extra nerve on the part of Mr. Bassett to come up for anything from Buffalo and Hall coun ties.and expect anything from them at least. _ The Northwestern has not so far expressed Itself for any candidate for president, but has been a some what close observer of just how the newspapers of the state seem to stand in regard thereto, and we have noticed that among the papers more especial ly booming the Wisconsin statesman there are altogether too many with democratic positives and leaning that are taking upon themselves the re sponsibility of advising republicans to support him. As a general thing it is the wisest for republicans to do just the opposite the advice of po litical enemies. it looks as though La Follette would get out of the race for the presidency at an early day, if he has not already quietly done so. There seems to have been and is being a tie-up be tween the La Follette and Roosevelt forces, to the effect that Teddy is to have the Wisconsin' man's strength, the latter to go out ot the running his health having so failed of late Uiat tliat to remain in and make the strenuous fight he would have to make and which his nature would demand, would result in a physical breakdown. Of course all this is in he air. and us small fry away from Uie center of the conflict and not in touch wiUi the real president makers can only judge by the comments, facts and rumors prevailing over the political situation. At the head of our edltojial col umns appears the name of Mr. Her bert S. Nightingale, as candidate for county attorney, subject to the re sult of the republican vote at the coming primaries. April 19. Mr. Nightingale, is the the son of our well known attorney, &. J. Nightin gale, and since his graduation last year from the law department of the State University, through which he paused with honor to himself, his par ents, his friends and to his home town and county, he has associated himself with his father in the prac tice of law, under the firm name of R. J. Nightingale & Son, and has al ready established a reputation as being a worthy follower in his father's footsteps as a thorough student of law, and laying the foundation as one of the best equipped lawyers in central Nebraska, as years and experience come to him. Should our young friend secure the nomination and subsequent election as loojs probable at this time, we believe he will prove and efficient and capable defender of the county’s legal rights. We wish him well in his laudable ambition. Bargain Sale leschInsky’s Until February 24 An Explanation Two weeks since, the Northwestern in speaking of the organization of a commercial club in this city, spoke of the necessity of putting the strong est men forward as leaders of the movement. Some parties have hon estly, it seems, because Bro. Beush ausen of the Times was made tem porary chairman, thought we were taking a poke at our brother editor, when that was furthest from our mind in speaking of the matter. We have but the kindliest feelings for Bro. Beusliausen. and would not in tentionally have had such an idea filter through any mind. The mak ing of the tempory chairman has no special relation to the final organi zation. nor do we wish to be under stood as taking a fiing at our editor ial brother because he was so placed. In order to make this clear to others, as it is to that gentleman himself, we make this public explanation. We can see that the article is liable to that interpretation, and in j ustice to both Bro Beusliausen and ourself make the above denial of any such intent on our part. Commercial Club Organized Last Friday evening, at Sweetland's store, was called the second meeting for the organization of a Commercial Club in this city. The meeting was called to order by Temporary Chair man C. F. Beusliausen. and minutes of first meeting read by Secretary Waite, which were adopted. Some discussion ensued over preliminary matters concerning proposed organi zation. The committee appointed at last meeting to look up constitutions and by-laws of various commercial clube, made report. The Or<i» com mercial club constitutions and by laws seemed to have struck the com mittee as just about what they would recommend as a total, and chairman Beusliausen on request read same to those presen. As it seemed the first thing in order was to find the senti < ment as to wheter we want a com mercial club and as to whether those present were in favor and were ready to become members of such and or ganization, a rising vote was asked and thesentiment in favor was un animous. On motion, the temporary organization was then made perman ent. Mr. Oscar Swanson was then elected vice pre-ident and Dr. Long acre treasurer. A committee of five was on motion appointed to correct the constitution and by-laws above read and make them suitable for our Loup City club. The com mittee wascomposed of It. H. Mathew R. P. Starr, J. W. Burleigh, S. E. Gallaway and S. A. Allen, the com mittee to have same ready to report at next meeting. A committee com posed of A. E. Chase, J. S. Pedler and A. B. Outhouse, was appointed to solicit for membership. On motion the quarterly dues were made $1 per quarter. The membership fee wass placed at $25, payable $5 each year. The next meeting was called for Society Hall this week Friday evening, at which committee reports will be received and further organi zation carried forward, after which adjournment was taken. Gov. Aldrich, who has been under stood an active La Follette leader in Nebraska, came out last week strong for Roosevelt for president. Frank Harrison for La Follette and Yeiser. who is the Nebraska boomer for Roosevelt, got their headgear to gether last week and it is confidently reported joined forces, the result to be the withdrawal of La Follette from the race an account of ill-health and the substitution of Roosevelt in the alleetions of the Wisconsin man. The further fact that many Taft men over the country are ready to ac cept Teddy, willingly, in case Taft does not show up strong, gives vivid color to the claim that at the coming republican national convention there may be a landslide to the former pres ident which will carry the convention off its feet, and land him as the republican candidate for president, willy nilly. The fur ther fact that Roosevelt preserves a clam-like silence over it all, goes to show to the uninitiated, at least, a befief that Roosevelt will take and really wants the nomination and re election. As to whether he would be wise in so doing, and whether the country would be wise in again plac ing him in the presidential chair, is a very debatable question. The young ladies of the Christian Endeavor society of the Presbyterian church will hold an exchange at the meat market of Lee Bros., this com ing Saturday, from II o’clock till even ing, or till all i^sold.

CO., Loup Cilv Neb, County School Notes From the Superintendent's Office. The superinteudent is pleased to note more Rood reports with regard f to attendance and punctuality. Good ' records in these lines are necessary, if pupils are to do good work. Teach ers are requested to be very careful in making the monthly reports. Every report should be very complete, as all the information asked for is of defi nite value. The examination stand ings need not be given, as they are of no use to the superintendent. Last week the superintendent be gan the visitation of schools. The rules governing the eighth grade examination, and other dates will be sent to the teachers of the county by circular letter in the near future. There is a great deal of food for thought in this brief declaration of principle. The teacher may. have a right to dance and play cards even though many of the best influences of the community are opposed: but is she doing the best thing for her school? Is she fulfilling her mission by following her inclination in the matter? Have a purpose in life, and having it, throw it into work, such strength of mind and might as God has given you. Education is leading human souls to what is best and making what is best of them. The training which makes men happy in themselves also makes them most serviceable to others The next regular teachers’ exam ination will beheld March 15th and I6tli. Candidates may begin to write at 8 a. m. each day and every one who takes the examination should be present by that time. Those holding permits, or third grade, or special certificates, should take this exam ination. Teacher, have you a course of study? We have a number of copies in the otlice and will send one to teachers upon request. There are many teachers in the county who have not yet notified the Superintendent of the commence ment of their schools. The blank cards for that purpose will be sent to teachers upon request. Assistant State Superintendent, Miss Anna V. Day, was a visitor to this county last week. She is plan ing on visiting as many as possible of the counties of the state, meeting with the ^hool people. She is gather ing data from all parts of the state, showing conditions as they are, and offering suggestions which, if carried out, will give the boys and girls of the schools of tliisstata much better school surroundings. With the county superintendent, Miss Day visited two rural schools. State Superin tendent, James R. Del/.ell is making special efforts for the betterment of rural schools. There is no grander calling than that of the teacher, with its immortal results. It comes close to the pocket books, but it should come closer to the hearts of our civilized Tace. Mrs. Will Crissand Mrs. Will Retten meyer visited a few days last week with their sister, Mrs. Miller, at Omaha. The editor had charge of I the conduct of the two Wills during their absence, and is pleased to re port advancement and especially good behavior during their enforced bach elorhood. We received a pleasant call yester day from Mr. J. C. Gallaway, who has become thoroughly Sherman countyized and does not regret com ing back here from many years' resi dence in the pivotal political state of the Union. Of course he became a reader of this great family paper. No one can complain that the Northwestern has not given suffi cient warning of the advance in sub scription rates. $1 per year now and until March 1st, after that date 81.50 per year. Get in before March first. We have given nearly three months’ notice of the advance. That's surely long enough, isn't it? City Club Houses.
