THERE’S A DIFFERENCE There is a very material differ ence between being thrifty and being penurious. Full fledged thrift is a realization of the larg est possible returns from ones in come. It is practical, beneficial. Those making use of it find that our bank account plan en courages REAL THRIFT. Why not come in and get acquainted with this plan—get a better idea % of just what its use will do for you? Loip City State Bank Lmp City, ItbnsJu. FELIX MAKOWSKI POOL HALL Handles Cigars.

Office Phone. Red 21 Residence, - Black 21 J. W. BURLEIGH.Editor and Pub. J. R. GARDINER Man&gar. The Ord Quiz, in re producing the Northwestern’s article on the extension of the U. P. from here to Long Pine, division station on the Northwestern road in Brown county can’t see “just why the U. P. would hook onto the Loup City branch, which winds about through the hills of Sherman county.” Now don’t be ill-natured, my dear Alphonse, but your geographical knowledge of the U. P. survey through Sherman coun must certainly be limited very limited. Instead of the road “winding about through the hills,” it does not wind about, go through, over or under any hill, but the entire line comes up the valley from St. Paul almost on a dead level and no grade. From Loup City up through Myra valley the lay of the land is almost ideal, with least resistence on grade propositions. To go by way of Ord would be to miss the Mvra valley route maped out by the surveyor, which is one of the principal reasons for the proposed route from Loup City north. And there may be much more to this than our lively neighbor to the north would have you believe. There is a pretty row now on between Commis sioner Hall of the State Railway Commission and Chief Engineer Gerber. The latter accuses Hall in fervid language of discrediting his work, and Hall or ders Gerber to quit his job. Gerber refuses to quit “by request,” and it is up to the other two commis sioners to settle the matter. Editor Clark Perkins of Aurora Republican,who used to be secretaryof the com mission alludes to Hall as a common scold who does not get along well with the other commissioners, has done no constructive work, but contents himself with criticism of his colleagues and annoyance of his sub ordinates, all of which, if true, show him to be a fit subject to retire to private life. Of course, it had to come to that. “General” Kelley of "Coxey’s army” fame has started from San Fran cisco with an army of unemployed numbering some 1,172 officers and privates and growing in numbers daily, bound across the country for Washington. The Californians are hurrying them across the eastern bor der, to dump them on other states, even chartering special trains to “pass them along.” Fine, isn’t it? According to the program, the army will form in two divisions when it reaches Kansas, one swarm going by way of Kansas City and the other by way of Omaha. And only one year of the democratic administration gone into history. Phew! Ord does not believe in snail pace in some things, at least. Petitions are in circulation for an election on three bond propositions—$18000 for water bonds, $5000 for electric lighting bonds and $7000 for city hall, and the Quiz thinks it a mistake to pile all three on at once. Cert! Why not do as Loup City did on her school house elections—make the agony long drawn out, as it were? Defeat can then come by de grees and you get accustomed to the hurt. Clyde Barnard of Table Rock, who has been hang ing around Lincoln, the capitol and the legisla tures for the past twenty years at least in different ca pacities, as employe in the senate or house or by the republican state committee, and always a candidate for something, this time wants to be secretary of state. For heaven's sake, give him something to quiet him— Oslerize the old skate, if no other way. The State Savings Bank at Superior closed its doors last Friday and is in the hands of the state banking board. It was allied with the First National of that city, which went under a few weeks ago, ow to the supposed rascality of its cashier, A. C. Felt, who now claims to be in San Francisco b^oke and wants to come back and face the music, or at least a letter to that effect has been received signed by his name. However, the letter sounds fishy. Dr. Thomas, who was thrown over the transom at the Kearney Normal,by the powers who had a more favored fellow for the place, now wants vindication by being elected governor. He tried the vindication idea on the state teachers’ association, but it didn’t work. Isn’t it funny how full of vindication-puss deposed of ficials generally are? This week Saturday petitions containing 40,000 signatures will be filed with Secretary of State Waite asking submission of equal suffrage to a referendum vote next fall. • Wilcox, the boy who tried to kill his employer, and wife near Kearney a few weeks ago, was sent to the the reform school by Judge Hostetler. The boy was not altogether bright. . / SIFEIVISOtS’ PROCEEDINGS March 3, 1914. County board of supervisors met this day pursuant to adjournment of January 14th. with all members pres ent: J. H.
