A jolly booster automobile party
consisting of about.'lOautomobllcs and
TJO men, including the Red Cloud
band, made a tour of Webster and
Franklin counties Wednesday. Tlio
start was made from Red Cloud at
about 8 o'clock. Hero two autos, drlv

car were Ed Amack, I. W. Craryaud
Cbas. Hodges; In Roland's car were
Mr. Thomas, of Republican City, John
T. Kent, of Lincoln, and Hurry

Cowlcs was reached in duo time
wlieie the citizens welcqtned tlio party
warmly. Ulue Hill was reached in
plenty of time for dinner and the
Boosters lined up at the lunch couut:
ers and kept the waiters busy for a
solid hour. From theio the party pro
ceeded west to Bladen, stopping an
hour; from there it proceeded f,to
Campbell, where the usual stop was
made. Hero the party cut acioss
country, 17 inilo, to Rlvcrton, where
arrangements hud been made by the
Rivertnn business men for lunch.
Here a longer stop was made than
usual, many of the cays having hot
boNes from tho long drive over the
hills. At Inavale, the entire popula
tion was out. and altho tho boosters
were getting tiled, the enthusiasm
was us much in evidence as any place
along the line Tho entire trip cover

brate July uh tit Red Cloud.' Printed
matter was freely distributed, besides
the hot air furnished free by tho sev

candidate was in the crowd. It Is
now up to Red Cloud to entertain us
when we go there July -lth, and they
promise to do the job right. So far as

one seems willing for Red Cloud to
do the honois for tho whole of the two
counties, for this year.

The most thrilling incident of the
trip wnswhen Roland's car ran into a

careful inspection of the noses in' the
