a very creditable examination
beforo tho stato board and was
awardod a certificate to practice.
Tho democratic convention

attended by domocrats from all
parts of tho state yiio have tho
welfare of tho party at heart.
It was a large, enthusiastic and
harmonious gathering. Tho pro
ceedings of tho convention will

r
The Alliance Guido -seems, to
have iv great deal lo say about'
tho "enormous sum of money"
tho Interstate ToAvnsito Com
pany is spending ' in behalf of
Hemingford. Let's see, Bro.
Puradis, didn't you have this sub
ject on your mind 'early in tho
campaign? Now don't got gay.
Mrs. Ernest Kroesiug, of Run
ning Water precinct, was brought
before the Commissioners of In
sanity on Monday, alleged to be
of unsound mind but after a full
investigation, the commissioners
consisting of Cleric Eholps, At
torney Gilman and Dr. Miller,
refused to sustain the charges,
and sho was released from
custody.
'From all that has been said
about the disappearance or elope
ment of Mrs. C. A fBencdict of
Box Butte, only theso facts seem
to bo clear, that she deserted
her husband and two small chil
dren and went to Grand Island,
Whatever may have been her
motive, a mother who will wil
fully and heartlessly desert her
young children, whether, it bo
voluntary or at tho solicitation
of a paramour, is deserving of
the strongest condemnation and
tho man who is responsible fpr
desertion, of a horse whipping
at tho hands of tho deserved
husband.
For tho benefit of tho farmers,
who are principally the tax layers,
of this county wo ' would with
great pleasuro point to the fact
that Box Butto county is tlio only
county in tho groat statu of Neb
raska that lias no bonds or any
indobte'dnosB of any description
hanging over its head Tind can
thorforo with pride, sand erect
and look over tho drooping heads,
of hor heavily bonded, Bister coun
ties. Whilo wo do not rejoice
over the calamaties bf our bister
counties wo would and do con
gratulato tho good citizons of our
county ' who have so ' ndmlrablv r
stood by us by tho welfare df
our county in the late county set
contest, which is again agitated by
the Alliance hankers, politicnbs
and lumbermen. Is it not suf
ficient evidence, to all tax paying
citizens, that any project propqaod
by the threo classes of men men
tioned abovo is detrimental to the
masses of our people. , Tho bank
ers in hopes of getting a big Blice
out of the sales of bonds; tho
politicians in kopos of obtaining
tho balance of power and iho
lumber man of Alliance grasping
at the sale of the lumlior for the
proposed now court house tax
payor stop think, tramp mon
opoly under your feet, f.ud should
the abovo mentioned people of Al
liance ask you to sign the petition
for relocation of tho county seat,
rofuse,defy and remonstrate against
such actions and give us you
aid by signing our remonstrance
which is boing circulated all ovor
tho county with no othor induce
ments whatever save tho wolfaro
of Box Butto county nt heart
which moots daily with unexpect
ed favor and signatures aud at
this present writing, Its support
ers are nuiubarod far above of a
half thousand patriots of Box
Butto county. Let tho good work
go on, your reward will be reaped
by low tax receipts for many years
to come. Our court houso here
in Jlemingford is a- structure
that would be a credit to many a
far eastern county, ailiplo room
and large enough for many years.
Stand by youf rights protect your
own interest, by vetoing that
ruinous petition of tho Alliance
bankers, politicians and lumber
men, and prosperity is ours.
Died At tho residence of Mr.
A. Sherwood, in Hemingford on
.Saturday, April 25, 1890, after a
lingering illness, Naucsy E.
Schlumpf; widow of tho late
Wirner Schluinpf, aged 51 years.

Tho Box Butto county Teachers

ciation for tho year at Alliance
last Saturday. Tho Juj?h school
room was filled with teachers and
patrons wlib aro interested in the
euueatton pi tuo rising generation,
and wo welcome such lo all our
meetings. Tho Prtnsy tong by
tho children, tho solos rendered by
Caro Cornoll, Miss Sloso and Mr.
BaluugLfc and tho selection by tliri
jylandolin Club were chbico ami
all approciatod tho rare talent did
plnyed. The paper by W. R. Siders and
Miss Ina Marshall were very prac
tical and every living teacher gain
ed many- helpful ideas aud is

his worlc from hearing those
papors.
Miss Mann eloed a very suc
cessful term ot school in district
No. 2.3LlfatAvoiik. Saturday even
ing the 25th inst, a publiq enter
tainment was given the school and
it was a very rare treat. Tho chil
dren one and all displayed markod
ability and with the careful train
ing they rceofved did credit to
themselves teacher worthy of older
children. Thoro is talent in Box
Butte county and if tho teachers.
seek for it, it can bo brought to
light to tho bettermont of the
people.
Tho chief function of oducation
is simply to din-ct tho attention
along proper lines and boo to it
that the attention sustains itself
when certain of tho more impor
tant and vital facts are brought
up for consideration. You readily
seo readily see that the great dif
ference botweon tho oducated man
is found In tho fact that the former
has great capacity for close, steady,
sustained, concentrated, attention,
Tho importance of taining tho
attention can scraoely be ovorcsti
lffdtod. Dr. N. O. Krohn.
