Gov. Thayer and numerous other
state dignataries have signified their
intention of coming to Red Cloud
durii" the firemen's tournament.
We thould he pleased to call the
altaation of the street and alley com
mittee to tho fact that the several
jompiog-off places at the various
street crossings should he fixed to
make life worth Uc living, especially
when one is huggy riding. What the
streets need are to he left severely
alone or fixed right when they are
fixed. These jumping-off places
around crossings are a decided out
rage and should he remedied. Per
flaps country roads built that way
are all right, hut it is supposed that
streets and crossings in a city are
somewhat more level than the range
of rocky mountains recently excava
ted in various parts of the city. It
puts a fellow in mind of a corduroy
road, the ups and downs are so fre
quent. What can you expect of other peo
ple in the matter of loaning money at
asurious rates, when professed chris
tian people set the example? People
who are professed christians should be
careful and live up to the devine in
junction, formulated against usury
and not be caught in the seat with
"sinners and scaffers" or words to
that effect. It is a bad example to
get before the world, and especiallv
the sinful part. We arc aware that
the temptation i grnat, yet it should
9 overcome, fui Uaury is usury who-rh- j
or made by christian or gentile, ami
there's no excuse that can be manu
factured that will make it anything
else but usury. No one can serve two
Masters at the same time, and espec
ially in this case, for if we recollect
arjght, devine history relates cases
where usury fiends and money mon
.gets were thrown out of the temple
tfcat had been dedicated to Christian
ity. If there are any of these peo
ple in Red Cloud let them stand op
a4 be counted.

As a prominent newspaper man
once said, we can often clip as good
an article as we can write, so we turn
ed our sheares loose on the Pawnee
Republican and this is the result:
"Nine-tenths of the unhappy mar
riages are the result of green human
calves being allowed to run at large
in society pastures without any yoke
on them. They marry and have
children before they do moustaches.
They are fathers of twins before they
are proprietors of two pairs of pants,
and the little girls they marry are
old women before they are twenty
years old. Occasionally one of these
gosling marriages turns out to be all
right; but it is a clear case of luck.
If there was a law against young ga
loots sparking and marrying before
they have cut all their teeth we sup
pose the little cusses would evade it
in some way, But there ought to be
a sentiment against it. It is time
enough for these bantams to think of
finding a pullet when they have rais
ed money enough to buy a bundle of
lath to build a hen house. But they
sec a girl tha. looks cunning, and they
are afraid there are not going to be
enough to go around, and then they
begin to spark real spry, and before
they are aware of the sanctity of the
marriage relations, tbey are hitched
tor life, and before they own a cook
stove or bedstead they have to get up
in the night and go for a doctor, so
frightened that they nearly run them
selves out of breath and abuse the
doctor because he doesn't run too.
And when the doctor gets there, there
i not enough linen in the house to
wrap up the "baby." Wymore Un
