When starting for home in the after i ru>on. two auto loads tried to see which could make the fastest time out of town, despite the fact that they were breaking the Ten Com mandments laid down for speeding by auto, going down our streets as fast a> the wheels would turn. That’s a i mighty poor way of showing respect to a sister town who sliowed them the courtesy of going out as an escort to the city. The Sunday and Monday morning dailies which came to this office had very little comment editorially on *l»e outcome of the Chicago convent ion. In this they followed the pre cedent of the big papers generally of I waiting till they could see which way i the cat would jump. What we would like to see is a big aaily that would •ome out on the instant and have Its 1 say. without waiting for popular: feeling. r«>rc, ' Yes; we will admit that “war is | and tliat it was somewhat finely illustrated at Chicago—a sort of mov ing picture exposition, but we believe the democratic moving picture show : at Baltimore will bo vivid enough to I knock out any chanee they may have liad to take advantage of the mis takes at Chicago. If the election had come within a ; few weeks of the nomination of Bryan ; at Chicago the first time, there never I has been any doubt expressed but i that lie would have been elected, but j after months of sober reflection, and j facts brought forth, the voters said ' most empatically. “NO.” Had the National election been held on the eve | f the adjournment of tlie Chicago | ^invention, some doubt might have ! tieen expressed as to the outcome but j after montiis of time and due deliber | at ion. you cap count upon the people j doing the right tiling and keeping in | power the party of the people and j the only one that lias ever accom* j pli-hed anything for the benefit and t welfare of the people. — Broken Bow is making an effort to | deflect the proposed Canada-to-the : t«u:f line from its air line course from j Kearney to Carrington, North Da i kota, through Loup City and Old, and | run it through Broken Bow. They] acknowledge that it will only cause the line to go some two hundred miles out of the straight course and that they can secure it they express no doubt. That live city is about the most visionary of any bailiwick in existance, and nothing is too strenu ous for it to tackle. It is a good deal like the farmer’s bull that was continually getting in front of the train near it’s master’s land with the intention of trying conclusions with the iron horse. After driving the pesky critter from the track num bers of times and thus saving it's precious neck, the bull again got in front of the engine too late for the farmer to round it away, with the inevitable result. As the farmer sor rowfully gathered up the remnants of the critter later, he remarked with some warmth, * I admire your nerve, but damn your judgment. SUPERVISORS PROCEEDINGS GEXKBAL FUND.
