Stand by your town. Not a dollar invested there but some good comes of it. There is no family like one's own family, there is no wife like one's own wlfo; thoro should be no town like one's own town' where wo llvo. educate our children, on whose street our babies play, and where wo may some day sloop. Let tho newspapers stand by the town, and lot tho bus! nese men stand by. the newsjiapcrs, and let us make our homo as famous as possible. Wo sometimes wonder if tho people of Nebraska really appreciate the fact that the Nebraska State Fair is con sidered tho best exhibition of its kind given by any state in tho I'uion. It is not ono of the largest, but it is certain ly one of tho best. Tho Iowa Home stead, ono of tho foremost agricultural papors in tho country and which has a representative present at every state fair held in tho United States, says: "While tho Nobrnska State Fair is not ouo of the largest, I havo always con sidered it ono of the best of tho state fairs from an educational pointof view for the farmers and stoekralsers." This indicates that the people of thi state have right at their door the best fair in the United States and thoso who havo never attended a session of the state fair should go tills year and see for themselves what Is considered by ouUI!erhthi best in tho country.

May Shorten Time of State League. Proposition llclnfc Considered lo Have Nebraska Organization Stoii Willi September 1. UAsilNttS, sob., Aug. HI (Special Telegram) As it precaution against possible llnancial troubles, the direct ors of tho Nebraska Base Ball league may uo asked to present to the local managers a proposition to shorten tho schedule to ond on September 1, in stead of on .September 10. It is believed here that all teams are able to go through to the llnlsh under tho present schedule, but the lliiances of all the clubs arc getting low and if the last ton days tiro knocked oil' it will leave tho league in bettor shape to resume next year Koports received here indicate that with possibly one exception all towns now m the league will reorganize for next year. Bod Cloud has been disappointed in its patronage, but if that or any othor town drops out Beatrice stands ready to take tho franchise Sunday Omaha Bee. Tho above is about as near tho truth as Dr. Cook was near to tho north pole. Straugo how some people allow their personal feelings to sidetrack the truth. As u matter of fuct tho last duy thut we played Hustings during their chuutuuquu wo received SUl.OO as our share of tho gate receipts. The last game here during our Chautauqua wo paid the Grand Island team SlSS.iil as their share of tho gate recoipts. We are willing to compare our attendance record for tho season with any city on the circuit. Hastings with about twice tho population of Bed Cloud has a much smaller attendance at tho ball games than we do. If any team drops out of tho league wo believe that it will bo tho Hastings team. Just bo cause wo havo captured nearly nil the games from that team is uo reason why Hastings should slton the south wide fence and pout. Come oil' the perch Hastings, when you send in tho news tell tho truth. A TRUTHFUL ASSERTION- The worst habit that boys can fall into is that of touting around on tho streets at night. It is then they cast their lot in slippery places when nt any moment they are likely to fall from grace. All gootl and noble les sons taught by their mothers are there counteracted anil nullified. They learn nothing that is good but every r thing bad. Tho boys who spend tliolr ovenings in tho sacred precincts of homo, with good books for their com panions are tho future hope of this republic; they will fill our legislative and congressional hall, and sit in judgment upon men itntl measures, while Hie boys who run tho stteets will 1111 our penitentiaries, almshous es and luntitiu asylums.
