B. IIelveen so far is the boss wheat raiser that we have- heard of this season. Ho had nino acres of fall wheat which averaged a little over 30, bushels to the acre. Tho wheat is known as tho Tin key wheat and is very plump and fino. We would suggest that it would not be a bad idea for storo keeper's to keep their wares in a proper condition. Tho othar night in the south end of town a lady ran a pitchfork tine in her foot. It might have made a severe wound. The sidewalk is no place for pitchforks to bo laying around loose, after dark es pecially. Hon. James Laikd, was m tho city on Thursday, looking after his canvass for congressional honors. JjWU uciegaiea have been elected in the following conn ties: Adams 9, Hamilton 8, Thayer 7, Saline 11, Red Willow 4, Hitchcock 2, making a total of 41 delegates. Sever al other counties have yet to select del egates, of which Mr Laird's frcinds ex poctlo secure enough delegates to nom inate him. Ouu worth v friond, Henry J. Mnuror one of tho old settlers of this county has 05.000 trcos set out. on his place and y nil jTowmir r.icolv. "llicy arc mostly made up of elm, Russian mull berrv, and ash. He also has nearly six hundred evergreens. All are growing fine. This shows what can bo done in growing trees in Nebraska. Let our farmers take hold of this matter and set out groves. Manager Drake of tno Nebraska Telephone company, was in the city last Friday looking over the field in TCgard to locating a telephone ex change. It seems to make a telephone o Rimncss in Red Cloud that we should have toll lines from Riverton and lna-.i vale to Red Cloud, thence to Guulo Rock, Cowlcs, Blue Hill, Wells, and Hastings. This, we thin k, will soon bo donc,-and we hope it will. It has been determined to hold the county fair this season in the best manner possible, and next year the people mav look for a genuine old east ern fair run with western enterprise. This fall our farmer? and'others should come forward aukl patronize tho com ing fair in a generous manner so that a good large fund can be raised for the use of the association for the extension of the association next season. C. W. Kaley, special commissioner for this county, wants tho farmers to bring in their grain that they propose to donate for tho New Orleans exposi tion.

Our reader should peruse Dela- forguo A Sellers' new advertisement in to-day's paper. The boys start out well- J. N. Bent has 27 acres of bmom corn that will yield at least nino tons It is among the best fields that we have observed. Look out for pickpockets on show day, and all sorts of tricks to decieve people. Thero will bo many and wo hope few chosen. Mil, A. (Yiie. was in Kansas this week trying to sreuro treatment for heart disrate which he has been effected with for a number of years. Tun Chief thinks that tho indesmm inatfj ball throwing on the streets should be stopped before some one is badly in jured. It is a bad practice. Some of our express messengers will no doubt liavo to movo toOxtord.when the chance of trains is made. The Chief is sorry to looae the boys. Mu. W. H.

Mr. Cure is a stanch democrat and was much elated and pleased over tho raising of a democratic tlag pole in that county. Prof. IIassos oFColorado Imivorsitv delivered a lecture on Japan in tho Presbyterian church at Red Cloud last week." It was a first-rato lecture, good matter in good style and not one trick of the trade about it. We would respectfully call tho atten tion of the citizens of Cowlcs to Peak & Latta's new" advertisement in anoth er column of to-day's Chief. They give prices to the people that ill be hard to duplicate by any houso in the county. The Grand Arniy of the Republic will hold a grand reuniou at Fremont, on September I to 6.

Ho is making !ig reductions in his stock and wants to give inc people at uowics and vicin ity tho benefit of it. The little baby of Mr. and Mrs. M. S. Marsh, departed this life on Saturday night after a very painful illness of sev eral wcoks duration. It was hurried on Monday. The bereaved parents have the sympathy of the community in their sore aflliction. The following gentlemen arc the probable candidates for iloat represent atives: Hugh Stevonson, of lnavalc and J. L. Ka ley, of Red Cloud, either of whom would be a credit to the dis trict if elected. D. P. Newcomer will probably represent the 39th district in the legislature. .

Just imagine tho city of Red Cloud reaching to Inavale, and you will have somo idea of it. It is busy beautiful town. The weather wa? warm while we were there, but we found comfort aud cool weather farther north in Isanti county. It is perfection there for a summer resort. One will find their small farms finely cultivated, and fenced containing from 5 to 10 acres of wheat and oats, 3 or 4, of corn uid an acre or two of potatoes, and the re mainder in hay, no pastures, the cattle on in tho road, small pretty 8 hordes, and large old fashioned homes. But what interested me most was the mall tract of real original forest of large trees and bushes and ferns of all kinds growing underneath the rasberries wero ju-a in their perfection, growing beside the road, and tho vines around the edge of tho wood3 and in every available space small fruits of all kind grow wild there, then the country is dotted here and there with small lake filled with fish. And the sum mor weath er is just right, never warm enough to be uncomfortable for a person who is not exercising:. And last but not least ! of the attractions, there are bears there when I did not have that pleasnre. There arc no snakes in that country. About one month of midsummer is as long as I would want to stay there. The winters arc long and cold, and the snow is deop. A week was all we could- spare for that pleasant summer resort, and wo are now at Hutchinson, which has many attractions that I will mention in rav next.

Farmers on tho creek all feel happy Threshing i? all done and a good yield of jjood quality. Some of the farmer) are in trouble they don't know whatthy will do with their corn, where thev will crib it. It is calculated it will average 10 bushel? to the acre. Some say it will go still higher. Our cheese factory i doing well. It is said that they have used tons of wa ter this season and have made it into cheese. If that be the case Mr. Cham berlin had letter dispense with tho cows. I am glad that the water was not taken from this creek, or none has been detected, They have a new code of laws down at Inavale. Dame Rumor has it that a justice acted as court, and as con stable arrested an orphan for larcenv. finci him, thou held his valiso for the fino, and has it &3 yet, for the boy has left the state. N E Harvey is a bachelor as yot, and we don't know but lie will be for some time.

The farmers hero arc mostly ongaged j in stock raising, and in the butter anu cheese business. The beautiful Nebraska sunflower is beginning to wave in the breor.es, and to follow the sun in his western trip.. by turning her elegant yellow face sun-ward, as long as ho is above the horizon. Corn promises an aounuact crop. From what we have seen in travelling over one of tho northern counties of Weil, wo will wakn up aintln. wcfk too bi'sy to wnln muck.
