Tho armored cruiser Cincinnati has sailed for Barcelona, having been or dered thoro by tho secretary of tho navy for tho purposo of protecting tho lives nnd property of American citi zona. Gov. Savago said in an interview at Fremont last, week that when his term of office expiros ho will likely move to Otogon, which causes an exchange to remark that if ho does no requisition papers will bo issued for his return.

Such a pol icy would have saved Mrs. (Jougar 1460 in hard cash and tho troublesome no ceasity of proving to a jury of hor poors that sho earned it by tho sweat of her jaw. According to tho Agricultural do partment at Washington tho average wheat and corn yield in Nebraska 1b greater than that of any other stato n tho Union. The averago wintor wheat yield is given at 22 bushels per aero, Missouri is second with an average of 18 busholi and tho averago of tho win ter wheat country is but 13.8 bushels. At a meeting of county c Ulcers in Lincoln last week it was decided to ask the legislature to pass a law inak.nj? the terms of county olllcors -1 years in stead of two. It soonis to bo tho senti ment of those piesent at tho meeting that when an ollicer was elected for only two years ho iunnedlatly common ced scheming for a second term. They also coutouded that a county ollicer could not make any thing during on.y one term. While a comity oflicor may not bo ablo to mak nuvthinsr in h sinrrl.. term and it might also bo alvitablo to extend tho term on account of tho elec tion expenses, yet whon an incimpoteut has been elected -1 years miglu bo to loug to wait to get rid of him. But fow people uudei stand tlit work lug of tho now county road law passed tit tho last sissiuii of tho legislature. P Teething I I Then the baby Is most like- S jf ly nervous, and fretful, and !

Ono-half of all money paid from tho M'Vi-iiil road dis tricts constitutes a county road fund and is divided diially among the com missioiieis to bo ixpdiclo.l hi each commissioner tlistritt for the coustiue. lion and lepair of midges, ctilveits etc. The other half is telurncd to the road district fiom which it is collected to bo ixpotided in that road disltict. It will be Men from the above that each commisiiionei lias an iial amount of money to expend in his district and that one has no advantage over an other only as tho size of the distiiuts vary. There has not been a time in tho last several years when it was lawful to selno for llsli and no one can claim that tho breakirgof tho law in this respect is done innocently. Tho oilicers and aho the person who informed on tho persons arrested and lined last Satur day for violating tho gamo hi at did just right. If tho law is wrong, then it may bo repealed, and if it is enforced on all aliko then there will bo no talk of favoritism. Tho birds and game pro tected by this law are tho farmers' best frionds, living as they do on worms and insects, and not destroying crops, as is believed by nany. That those birds do live on tho worms and insects has been proven by tho oxam nation of thousands of stomachs in tho Agricultural department of the United States. Tho bird stomachs aro sent to tho department by fanners and tho bio logical department, when in the Held A Small Boy's Essay on Newspapers "Newspapers aro sheets of paper on which stull' to road is printed.

In referring to tho A. O. U. V. and their committee in last week's Ciukk, especially in the manner in which it was done, reductions were cast that woro certainly duo to misinformation. The writer has been informed that tho news (?) got into the columns through garrulity and subtlety of the culprit in tho case, from tho apparent desiro to bring tho lodge, and particularly the committee, iu a false light before the community and to screen himself from tho just disapproval of all mentioned. When a fox cannot outi tin ho trios to evade and throw his pursuers oil his track, oven at the expense of some other fox. This ho did. Were tho facts iu this case made public tho accused would hide his face in shame, bad he any of that rare arti cle, which is altogethor too scarco in men of his class. Idstoad of hiding bis disgraco ho has published it with his own tongue and accused others of it. TilK Ciiikk has, doubtless, boon to blamo in publishing anything from so doubtful a sourco, but wo shall hope thit this trick will not catch them asleop again. As to the men men tioned by Tiik Chief, they are ineligi ble to the order utidor any and all pre texts, as long as engaged iu their pres ent business, notwithstanding some who patron zo them, and others not so honorable, aro illegally allowed to re main in the lodge. Tin: Ciiikk should swallow its bittei draught in being so cunningly led into a trap, and tho A. O. U. W. should "cloau up" and give no oxcuso for a repetition of any of these disagreeable and disgraceful occurrences. X. M. To the Northern Lakes.

(Jeogo Whittwor hoard the cattle going pant Ins place duting tho Might, and ilie nixt morning, upon missing one of his own cattle, he start oil out to follow them up. Ho discov ered the tracks of ono of the cattle ie turning and supposing it belonged to him he followed the tra. k to Louts' pasture, wheie he found the animal, but as it piovetl to be one of Boat-.' and as tho pasture fence was down he reported the matter to Mr. Boats hole in town. Mr Boats immediately took steps to discover tho whereabouts of his cattle and dually, on Wetlm-tlay, f 1 veil woid from Etboti that tlieie were some cattle there which might be long to linn. Mr. Koati went to Kiih.ii Wednesday afternoon and nositivelv ideiililied the cattle tl as belonging to him. He notified Sheiitl McAithur to come to I-Mion titmice, winch he .lid.

O'Xeil all of Burr Oak, Kansas. Their trial was hold before Judgo West, and all eutered n plea of guilty, and woro nssesscd a lino of 810 each and costs. The costs amounted to about 85 in each case, making about 815 which each person had to pay. These men had como to this county, with their wives and some of their wives' friends, for tho purposo of camping out. hunt. ing, fishing nnd having a good time generally, little thinking that they were breaking a state law. Tue lino nssesscd was the minimum lino which could have been assessed in cases of this kiud and which under tho circumstances was but light and proper. Tho W0 tine collected is, according to law. put into thu school fund and the persons on whoso complaint tho arrest was made receive from the county general fund an amount ujiinl to half ot the line, or $15. .
