Some dogs in this city are getting
too mucli.of the children's bread. They
don't stay under the table content
with th e crumbs, but jump rijiht up
upon the family board and seize upon
the childrens laf. They need their
nozzles rapped, with the sharp com
mand, ''Get down, you brute." I
don't know anything about the bank
loaf. Mic political loaf, the loaf of this
business cabal or that social junto,
but the loaf of morialty and decency,
public and private I have a large and
life interest in. one that reaches away
on "Ovc the River," and I'm going
to shoot, bve and bve. right where
seme of these dogs are gnawing away
upon the childred's loaf with their
nasty, harpy touch, and if they don't
"git from thar" they'll get hit. Per
haps some nasty fellows can work out
this riddle. M. C. Butler.

The railroad bonds in Kearney
county were carried by XU votes over
an I above the required two-thirds
necessary to make legil. Hastings
on the east and Iloldregc on the west
did their best to defeat the bonus,
coming over into Keatncy county and
poisoning the minds of the foreign
element especially against them.
Such comsummate cheek we never
befoie heard of one county manifest
ing toward another. On Thursday
this city will carry bonds to the
amount of 55,000, after which it
will be understood that work will im
mediately begin upon the road, and
thus Kearney will have a southern
outlet. Kearney Journal.
The dedication of Asbury Chapel
took place Sunday. The usual cere
monies were gone through with. This
Chapel was planned, erected and paid
for through the efforts of Rev. G. S.
Davis, pastor of the M. E church of
this city. It is a beautiful piece of
architecture and the south end of our
prosperous city should place the
honor of its erection where it belongs.
If the M. E. church had a few more
such workers as Rev. Davis we would
look forward to the erection of a fine
brick edifice up town.
