What steps are being taken by Red
Cloud in thmattcr of celebrating the
National Hoi iday, the 4th of July. The
time will soon be here and if a celebra
tion is intended it is time to go to work.
From our south side correspondent, we
learn that the folks on tho fouth side of
the nver contemplate "enthusing" on
their own hook. Would it not be well
to join and have a rousing old time. We
have a mammoth eagle (copper plate) in
our office, that is anxious to scream. .
Since the above was in typo a meet
ing has been held and steps taken to
hold a celebration, see notice elsewhere
We took a trip last week down to
the shores of the 'Old Muddy,"' the
eastern part of this state. Getting
aboard the cars at this place at half past
six in the morning, we arrived at Platts
mouth tho same day. Thi3 is a decided
improvement over the old way travel-
mg with teams, requiring six a ays io
make tho trip and the same to return.
Hon. R. B. Windham of Cass coun
ty, a prominent lawyer and member of
the legislature, stopped o?er night in
town and renewed the acquaintance of
the CniEP, last week. He expressed
himself as being highly pleased with the
appearance of our town, and thought
as all others do, that our future prospects
are bright.
Wash a baby clean and dress him up
real pretty and he will resist all advances
with a mobt superlative crossness; but
let him cat molasses, ginger-bread and
fool around the coal-hod for a half hour
and ho will neEtle his dear little dirty
face up to your clean shirt-bosom, and
be just the lovingest, cunningest little
rascal in all the world.
Our sister town of Hastings may well
feel proud of having tho only Header
manufactory in the state. M. T. Lewis
and Co., are it is said by practical farm
ers, making the most complete Header
in the market Mr. Lewis himself being
a farmer is fully competent to make a
machine free from the many objections
seen in others. He has an improved
patent dropper that he uses instead ot
the elevator, whereby he is enabled to
deliver flax, oats or barley, upon the
ground in perfect shape for binding.
This attachment he sells for $15,00 and
to those who purchase Headers of him,
free. His prices are lower than any
other, sad no freight added. Patronise
home manufacturers.
R. S. Ervio, Esq.j of this city, will
deliver a lecture which he has written
with considerable care, in several ef the
cities and towns of this state this sum
mer. The titlo of his lecture is, UA
reply to Ingersoll from the Standpoint of
a Man of the World," and it is intended,
not so much to refute the teaching of
Ingersoll by argument as by appeal to
the passions and sympathies of his hear
ers. Mr. Ervin is a young man possess
ing a geod deal of pluck and energy and
is rather pleasing in his style of delivery.
His manner plainly indicates that he has
given a good deal of attention to rhetoric
and elocution, and not without profit
He will deliver his lecture at Kearney
early in June, and expects to go to Fair
bury and North Platte and other towns
soon. Eastings Journal.
He will lecture at the Court House in
this city to-night
