The most ignorant may reasonably
and very properly ask for enlighten
ment through the columns of a news
paper, but only those who are well in
formed and understand what they arc
talking or writing about should
undertake to teach, or attempt to fur
nish the information thus asked for.
If the "calamity shrickcrs" of the
independent party would properly ob
serve the above rule many of those
who are foisting themselves upon the
public as political teachers would, in
stead of trving to teach, be asking
for information. There would be
less cry of wolf, olf, " wherr there
is no wolf.
Il is not dented that there arc some
political wolves in the community, but
they arc trying to disguise them.eves
in sheep's clothing; and their irantic
efforts to alarm and deceive the hon
est voters may be styled a "howling"
effort, but cannot be called a uhovrl
ing success;'' for it i difficult if not
impossible, to conceal the democratic
hoofs and horns under so transparent
a covering as the independent "crazy
quilt" which is being patched up for
that purpose. H.
F. A. Good ot Cowlc5. passed
through Bed Cloud Monday on hit

Paul, who was accidently shot, as do-
"ins well and likely to return home
this week or next. In pulling a pun
from the wagon it was discharged,
and two-thirds of the usele of his
arm was torn away. lis stood it
bravely, but would have bled to death
in a few minutes had not Mr. Good
and the boys bandaged it quickly.
It was over an hour before the wound
was dressed in McCook. A close call
but the arm is likely to be saved.

A Little too Brccz'.
Kditou Ciiikf: Day in and day
out you can hear loud-mouthed
individuals talk about -more money
needed" and that the country is going
to the dogs, because of mismanage
ment by the republicans. &c, and a
whole lut of silly trash of a simi
lar kind. Now, these selfsame
blowhards hate but very little
conception of the machinery and
ability tint it takes tjo run as vast a
government as the United States, and"
if any one should ak them any tiling
about it, it would be impossible for
them to make an intelligent answer.
Vet. you can hear them talk about the
fin?nccs of the government, something
that has caused the hair of our greatest
and most profound statesmen to turn
gray in trying to solve, but these agita
tors tell you. that it is a siuifle mat
ter to deal with, and all that is needed
is simply fifty dollars -p-e-r c-a-i t-a
&c. Their papers talk it. and in fact,
all of that useless kiud of agitators,
whose talk does more injury to the
great cause of humanity than all the
rest of the ills that flesh is heir to.
The trailers and hangers on to the In
denpendent party are principally men
whd have nothing at stake, and are im
bued with the idea that they are about
to become rich by a miracle or by the
aid of the brains of others, who have
succeeded in accumulating wealth,
while they have been crying thief and
robber, and have been too shiftless to
earn a living. Pick up thcic men one
by one. examine them, Mr. Editor,
carefully, and I will guarantee that
you will find the above statement the
rule rather than the exception, one
thing is certain, that you will find
that the bone and siuew of our
country "are not in it. As a usual
thing you will find them at work try
ing to make an honest living, paying
their debts a.s fast as possible, and
surely and certainly wiping them out
dollar by dollar, and ultimately will
become well-to-doj while the ther fel
lows and growlers are loafing around
and saying that he i getting his
money dishonestly, because they have
not the ambition or desire to labor
sufficient! to get enough to live ou.
and would rather make a loud noise in
order to make people think there is
"something rotten in Denmark" when
the cause of their poverty nine times

To morrow the Independent- will
hold their conventional Cowlcs. We
notice that the fellow who have hung
on to the old parties for office arc now
hanging on to the Independent kite
with the hope of flopping into office
by that route. If the way the straw
bio is any indication of what is to
come several of them will be very
much disappointed when the ides of
November roll around. We don't im
agine that the independents will have
a walk-a-way. A great many people
are becomintr tired ff the thcoriea
advocated by their leaders, and are
stepping down and out. It is said
that the ring" has the ticket' fixed
for nominating at Cowles, tomorrow,
and if it pans o at that way. the tick
et will be dropped like hot .cakes. A
great many of the more conservative
independents kick on having a ticket
set up for them to vote, by ringMcrs.
