Limt Wediie'diij wasJulj I, and the people fiom H'irioundiiig cotiutrj in large numbers came to Red Cloud to celebrate the natal daj. At sunrise the people wero awakened lv the gun pqiiail who sent forth report aftei icport fiom tho at tiller part of tho piograin. Tins was the signal foi a general fiiHilado of Hi o erncki'is and other explosives, and the day was ushered in in the usual niautiei. Rverjoue shot Hie crackers At ten o'clock, Maishal Gra engineered his parade through the streets, foi lowed b Jus. Peterson's steam engine and little "J iniiiij clones," composed of three wagons. The parade was headed by His Honor, the major, audthocity council, tollowiug tho major, came tho S. of V. band, tho lire department, and a wagon containing H little gnK representing thoBtntcs. This wagon was averj haudtoti'.c feature and attracted much attention. The cnlithumpitina catiio not, and then Jaw. Peterbou's steam engine and iniiiij citizens in car Hugos. The parade went north on Web ster, west on 7th avenue, south on Sow mil street, east on , 'Id avenue, thence to fith avenue and concluded at the court house park, vvheio tho speaking was to take place. Here, Major Roby Intro dticed tho Hon. T. J. Mahony of Omaha, who addressed tho people on the occa sion. His speech was thoroughly pat riotic and full of bound sense and was highly appicciated bj all present. At tho close of tho address dinner was called, and after taking care of tho in tier man, tho crowd ro assembled to hear the toasts of our home people, i o lions. Jiib. Gilliam, C. W. Katcj, J. M.Challln, R. McNitt and R. T. Potter. Rach of thebo gentlemen responded to tho sub jects assigned them in excellent shape, and had wo the room, wo should bo pleased to give each speech, but our spueo forbids, sulllco it to say, how over, that Red Cloud has talent in tho lino of oratory that cannot besuipnsBed. After tho tonstti woro completed it was tho nig mil for a general good time, and tho peo ple danced, laughed and had a general good time. Tho races wero of the prin cipal afternoon umusemeuts and people mndo a grand iubIi to seo thorn. AMlsr.MI.Ml. Thu bicjelo races attracted tho largest ciowd, and the handsome racetrack was linid with interested spectators. Tho wheelmen who wero hero from a dis tanco wuro profuBo with thoir compll ments in regard to tho splendid track that luul boon arranged for them, There weio four entries in tho haif mile race, vi.: A. R. Timmermaii, of Superior, Henry Kirby of Bladon and Frank Cow den and Hugh Miner of thiB city. Tim merman carried away tho gold medal and Kill)' the silvor medal. Hugh Minor's wheel was disabled ut tho open ing of tho second heat and ho was foi cod to withdraw from tho race. Time 1:20. Ben McParland of Red Cloud nnd Willie Thome of Bladen woro tho con tcutftiits for thu bojB quarter mile raco. Thuro won in 40 seconds, Bon coming in ono second later.

A vory interesting gamo of bnso ball botwpon Fai mem Crook team and Red Uloiul, i emitted in a score or ii to a in favor of Red Cloud. This wns disputed howovorand Red Cloud claimed tho vic tory by tw o scores. Oliver Hedge won tho fat innn'B raco. Tho entries weio Oliver Hodgo, Mr. Hil ler, Mcllalo and Mr. Campbell. In tho.)0aid raco tho ontrioe were Messrs Stone, SchalTnit , Spurrier, Rjan and Cronor. Stono was winner. Tho Red Cloud Iiobo teams made a lino showing. No. 2 won first money in 23 Seconds. Distanco 50 jards. In tho potato race thoro wore four con testuntu but wo did not learn tho win noi 'a naino. Upon tho whole Red Cloud had n splendid celebration and tho poople had n good time. Sovoral months ago M, R. Bontley purchased what was known ns thu Stato Inmk ut that time, on the statement that it was clear from all liens, and now comes a claim of $700 for which thu bank has bouu told, and the receiver should bo prompt to settle it, wo should think, as wo believe Mr. B, paid a vory high pi ico foi tho building, and much higher than it could havu been bold for to othus. Mi. llenllej will probably commence suit to compol tho govern mont to pel feet tho title. Wo omitted to mention on account of our absence last week, tho appointment of J. A.

Tie has our best uishos, R vimdTii vnsii . On tho morning of the Kith Tin Ciiiii editor boarded the 10 I'.O II. A M. train for the cast, and at tip. in. niiived in Craig, Missouri, where ho staod over Stinilii. A gieut deal has been said about Mifourl Intel, and that it was tho garden of the world, Ac , while a great deal of the stor is worth of credence, et oven Missouri hat her adversities Dining tho month of Mil she had vet littlo rainfall, and as a con seqiienco her cropii are not what the would have bt'Pti had copious rainfalls been tho case, Oats, wheat and part of tho fruit crop'i aro short, still corn is splendid and there is quite a largo aero ago of small grain. Missouri has her drawbacks however, and when Nebras ka is short on crops, that state, as well as others, aro similarly nireotod. From Missouri we went north to Omaha, and thence to Chicago via the llurlingtou route returning the following Friday. Passing tlnoiigh Iowa ami Illinois, where wo could obseivo the growing crops. All along tho Burlington line, crops laikcd very nicely, jet thoro lias been u dearth of rain, uud the com crop and othei crops aro backward. Coin as a usual thing is not up with tho Ne braska article, oven if our spring wns a little drouth. Times are very dull in the states named and people there have that tineas, restless fever as badly as they have it in other places, and the only wa that we can see to obviate it, is to settle down and bo sntislled to let well enough alone, for thuro will iiIvwijh bo dissatisfied people, mid if Nebrns kans take tho fever it will only bo tho worse for them as theio is no iuiinediato reined'. The only thing to do Is to abide by tho consequences at hand and bo prepared to lloat on tho top wav e w hen prosperity again I louts over our land. There is no better state than Nebraska, and no hotter crops, noil or people than hero abide. Rvini'.vli. rou mi. Wi.i k.TIio week has been hot and dry but the general rains immediately preceding had left the ground in excellunt condition nnd all crops have niadu very satisfactorj growth. Light rains of a half inch or less provailed over the stato generally, except in thu central and outhrastorn section whore none fell until Monday night nnd Tuesday morning, but as wo go to press, light rains prevail over the state generally. In tho extreme north western and northeastern comities near ly an inch fell during tho week. Thoro has been more Unit) thu normal amount of sunshine, mid in some localities, hot south winds have causid thu corn leaves tocutl somewhat. Small grain contin ues to nhow general improvement. Wheat harvest is well advanced in tho southeast section. Tho straw is short, in pome cases oven too short to bind and tho ield is light, but the grain general ly is of good quality. Ovor most of the western part of thu stato tho small grain will bo nearly a total failure. Chich bugs aro becoming vory numerous nnd aro beginning to attack corn. The corn ovorywhoro is in excellent condition. It has mndo a remarkable growth during the wook and is now farther advanced than usual at this b;ubou. Much of it has been cultivated for the last time. Tame hay is a light crop but wild hay is improving and pastures uru everywhere in good condition. There has been a largo acreage of millet bown which is coming up nicely. In Webster county, corn hati mndo a wonderful growth dur ing tho week. Di.nno Si.mi.mm.I).

Thu judge demanded proofs of the attornov'b asbertlnns nnd said that if they woro truo ho would mako suiious trouble for somo ono.

Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder World'tPstrlllgheitMtdslendUlploms. Srrmvisoii QorwrioN. Mr. Editor, (ile ipo allow mo to mako n reply in your paper to the gentleman who has not tho courage to sign his naino to tho artlclo repljing to my Btatoiuontn mado in tho Nation, In thu first place, he naid hid table was taken direct from tho tax list and no guss work. If there is nny mis takiv in mj table of Webster county you must hold the editor of the Argus re sponsible for that as, Mr. Warren pub- IHhcd that identical table last spring as utriiocopj of tho tax list iib It wiib thop, and I suppose it's the sumo to-day, for tho very purpose jou aro publishing it now. I simplj cut it out nnd saved it and jou can seo it in the Nation olllco jtt. Next, I ask jou why did jou not publish tho statement of Nuckolls coun ty iilno? That wan in tho Nation. It looks as though it must have bcon against jou. Nsxt, you tell us thntour valuation increaseii svery jear and na turally brings our per cent down. Tho faots are, that the Inst four jvura the valuation has been from $,'100,000 to $400,000 less than it wan in 1800. I would like to call jour attention, too, to tho fact that we huvo built two steel bihlgen across tho Republican river that overjbody speaks well of, and paid cash, each in each j ear's levy, besides tho low er valuation, and no bond afterclapp. Please boar in mind, too, tlint jourtouu ty levy from 1880 to 188." is far heavior on jour own statement than any jear since, and jou bring in township tax in order to fool the people, but I would liko to know what tho town tax Iiiib to do hero; that is, a tax that isat tliepooplo's own option. It is their own municipal business. If they aro humanowltli their poor brutes and wish to spend a fuvv dol lars each car to save horse llesh and hard pulling for their horses, they can. While we paid as high us $8 on tho 9100 valuation ami never received u cent's woith in tho rural districts for roudsor culverts. Your can't oven tlnd a high way road overseer that got fifty conta on the dollar for his fees under tho old bjb torn, so where wero wo at? You might just us well say wo should eat only mush uud milk and wear $,'1 suits of clothing in order to save money; that's what many had to do when taxed wore from ( to fS per $100 valuation. Look up thu report of Line township; it only levied linills tax for lBO.'l for town ex penses, and who dares to put tuoro onto them? Here is no coward, it's Jack Kindscher from Heaver crook. Tun Cm i r duct- not seo any reason tor personal abuse of tho major and city council because tho standplpo wna not tilled last week. Whatever may bo tho personal feeling between tho monibon of tho council on any subject in not of impoi tanco in the enso ut bar, us tho lawj era would say, an thoy had no part in thu matter, more than to appoint tho water commissioner somo weoks ugo. Our estimable contemporary, Tho Bolt, siijb on tho matter: "That tho question hinges on who shrill run tho council," etc. and "whnt the council ought to do is to resign mid call an election to select now olllcials," or worda to Hint olToct.' Wo enn not possibly beo tho bearing or tho relation that tho llro cf last week has to do with Xho council's resigning. New olllcera could do no bettor than the pieaent ones, and a new water commis sioner could also mako mistakes, henco we come to the conclusion that our con temporary is talking through its cylinder Wo surmiBo that tho criticism comos from n dosiro to lilt the members of city legislature n "Bolt" rather than to criti cise them justly. Tin; Ciiit.r doos not uphold the "llioticulllng" that hit been going on in tho council but it believes in giving tho devil ids duo. 'Iho coun cil in no more to blumo for thestandpipo not being full than is theC.arof Russia. It is one of those peculiar casos whore it is "be d -- d if jou do nnd bod dif jou don't" alTairs. TiikCiiiki' behovoa tlict evory mombor of tho present coun cil is as intelligent and as honest, and come ns near doing their duty as any council that Rod Cloud bus ovor hud during our our residence hero notwith standing somo unwarranted criticisms that huvo boon heaped upon them by Bomo of Red Cloud's critics.
