K ii.tii v While the farmors havo been moio or less delayed by tho heavy rains in putting in tlioir crops, they aro not complaining., Thoy know tho greater tho raiufall the greater tho crops. The peoplo of Hastings aro making an effort to secure the state reunion of the G. A. R. and we can see no reason why they should not get it. Hastings U the most central point in the stato and its people always come to the front and make a merry time on all occa sions. We hope the Post kero will do all they can for the people of that town. In the spring the begging pastor gets new energy and vim, and ho does some heavy talking when tho choir has sung tho hymn. "Brethren, sisters," ho ox claimcth, "you will suffer shool's pains, if you don't cough up more freoly, from tho hoards within your jeans. Have you thought about tbe heathen on the far off Ganges shore? They are short on guns and bibles, have no credit at the store.

Thon tho mortgago on this building is two decades in arrears, acd the way tho int'rest's growing moves this clergyman to toars. And my wages aron't forthcoming, and your pastor's going broke, ovon now my suit of broadcloth and my timopioce is in soak. Como, my friends, bo up and giving, you've samoloons to burn; while tho lamp koepB up its smoking vilest sinners may return." Walt Mason. Incidents oi Every D.iy Lilt Which Vciy Few People Stop to Think About on Account of Their Littleness The pn liabilities aro that (oino n( the young people of tho town will pe tition tho now mayor and council to carpet tho .stcpsaud porch of the school house and other public places. Itifthi present con lition they aro very incon venient to sit on those damp evenings. The voting people certainly dosorvo some consideration from the new coun cil. Wo would reeoinnieud that they either carpet these places or pass a cur few oidiuauce. And wouldn't a cur few ordinance bo a hot thing in this town. We (inclining nil of us reform ers) don't caro what happens to tho young folks, just so tho older ones can't put in their time inn saloon. Take care of tho old 'uns. Tho young 'tins can take care of themselves. -For feelings that are hard, ami ways that aro vain these reform ideas at o pecul iar. We should think that these re form ideas should boitauglittho young people instead of trying to push them down tno throat of old people. Prob ably if this was done the next genera tion would havo less to tight about. Tho present factional light is enough to mako ono mau's (tog hato his neigh bor's cat because it drinks milk. You want to go away from homo to got tho nows. Thnt's",an old saying but some times its so. Last Sunday a non-resident temperanco lecturer, wo under stand asserted that .'IJ, 000 gallons of whiskey was consumed! in Red Cloud in a year Wo don't know whoro tho ligurcs como from but maybo they aro all right. Thoy woro given by a per son who Is of tho continued belief that "Thou shalt not lie." But wo think tho gentleman was just a little misin formed. In fact wo think ho is just a little inclined to gossip. That is, re peat some things which lie hears which ho hadn't ought to.- iW.OOO gallons of whiskey means Jl.'.'OO.OOO drinks. About s.ooo di inks for every day in tho year This ni"ans about $100 per day for each saloon man on bis whiskey trade alone Now what is the use of some iioii-icsidentc(iiniiig bereand try ing t-i stntl such a tory as that down our people. Wo know better Why is it that the IliM meeting of a new council always draws a good crowd? It may seem strange yet it is a fact. Did you over notice how many of our boys and men aro wearing "striped suits" these days They seem to bo quite tho fad. The "soda water" sea son is now on in full blast. Tho boys pnckclbook will becomo lighter as a consequence. To the People. Having returned to thiscityaftor an absence of nearly four years, I havo decided to put in a stock of hardware, stoves and house furnishings.
