George for treasurer of Custer i county the republican convention I made no mistake. Mr. George I has made one of tlJe beBt treasur- rs the county lJas ever had. By the help of efficient assistants he has not only kept bis books up in oed shape but he bas collected the personal taxes closer tban has been one before in Custer county without resorting to the ecution of distrcss warrants , His system costs more for clerk hire but it saved the expense of sheriff fees and thus made a saving - . ing to the individual tax'payer. . He systemetized his methods of : collecting the tax deliquent and by sending out repeated personal I notices almost the entire list for I last year has been colllected and and only two or three executions were necessary to 'protect ' 'the ' county's interest. We predict for Mr. George an increased majority - jority in the coming election. - - - - - - Olllver.1n" stew. Adjutant General Culver is again on the anxious leat. For a long time he waited anxiously to hear from tbe 'War department that the ; Nebraska National Gunrd could by participating this summer in tbe army maneuvers for tlJis department at gpvern- ment expense , secure recognition unller thrt Dick bill that would enable it to have an encampment next year , the eX1gense of which Ute government will pay. Now that lJe has secured a favorable answer on that point he is again in something of a stew because the army authorities arc liable to call out the guards without sut1 cient warning to enable its officers to provile suitable quar- master and commissary supplies. He is now bombarding the War ( lepartment w1th gentle but significant - nificant reminders 'that the members - bers of thc Nebraslca National Guard do not live in barracks and that it is 1f . ing to take reason- a 1 e warn111g to enable them to break away from their occupa. tions and fall in fully armed and eluipped for camp duty. and scientific maneuveri'ng.-Bec. l'roterhon Wlnl ! b ) ' UUO Itor Cont.

VlsllJle to All , From all parts of tlJe laud come expressions from natlOnal leaders of the Republican party and leaders - ers of political thought declaring not only their opposition to Tariff revision , but expre ! sing the view that it would be certain to eventuate - uate in injury irreparable to our industrial and commercial in- terests. It would unsettle busi- ness , close the factories , and throw labor out of employment , b ) ' thus diminishing the purchasing - ing capacity of the home market would adversely affect every farmer in the land. Prices of that which the farmer produces would decline and there would be little demand for his product at a ny price. A period of stagnation - nation would ensue in comparison - son with which thd hard times I and monetar.y . stringency o { 1893 would be prosperity. Tbe utter inutility and unprofitableness of Tariff revision ought to be manifest - fest to every person who is a clear thinker. Its deleterious effects are plainly visible to all who heed the light of past experience - perience and are familiar with the fundamentals of economics. . I -Waterloo Couner. . No POlmll8t In the EI1 t. . .It appears from the following that the Nebraska Independent bas been sending out circulars to the managers of the once populist - list party soliciting tbeir aid in securing subscribers to tbe Independent - pendent , with the view of reorganizing - organizing the populist move- ment. One of the circulars reached Eltweed Pomeroy , one of the National Committeeman in New Jersey. The following is Mr. Pomeroy's reply : Editor Independent : Your circular letter of May 28 receiv- ed. There is not any of the populist - ulist party left in New JerseYi it was never 'very large , but I do not believe that a meeting called at present would , bring togetlJer ten men , and there is no use trying - ing to revive it at present ; it would be impossible. The socialist - I list party has absorbed tbe radicals - cals and the democratic p rty tbe conservatives of the old populist - ulist party , and a few have gone republican. Of course I would be very glad to see itrevived , but one man cannot male a public movement. I think the same is true of all the states east of the Alleghanies and probably also of many of them west. It would I be almost impossible to get sub- scripttons for your paper in the i east , as that kind of a paper does l not .circulate . here. Er. TWHHD PmmROY. I East Orange , N. J. . The confession is a plain state-I. ment of facts. It is not only true I of the eastern states , but as he . . . . suggests 1t 1S probably true of many states in the west. 'l'he only places that the populist - list party trys to maintain an organization are in counties where tlJe democratic party has but a small following. In such ; countics the populisi organizations - tions are being kept up with the - hope of getti'ng the spoils. > Not COITt'ct 'l'he Sunday Bee had' statement - ment from its Lincoln Correspondent - pendent to the effect that the equalization report of Custer and. Howard counties had not been , reo , ceived by Auditor 'Veston an that as a punishment the said counties would be charged t11 full legal limit of 9 mills. 'Ve know nothing' of the facts 10 reference - ference to Howard county but the statement is not correct in reference - ence to Custer. The report had been completed and forwarded to the A 1ditor by Custer count ) . un- j der a special delivery stamp last , . , . _ . . - - - - , - " . , ' - ' , . _ . - . week. On sceing the report it1 the Bee , Deputy CJerk Pigman w nt to Lincoln on Montlay to look the matter up. He found that the report had been received and that there was no disposition upon the part of the board to add to Custer's assessment because it was not in there by the tenth of the 111onthas 1110st of the other counties were in after that date. In fact the auditor complimented Mr. Pigman for holding the report - port back to get it absolutely correct instead of sending it in as it came from the assessors booksas they frequentl. } ' are in- accurate. lIe states there was no prejudice against C.uster as the report was received , by' him in ample time for the meeting of the state board of equalization. c. . . . . . . ' " w v. 'Ve have heard no kick on coal bills the past few days. Over twenty 'phones were burned - ed out during the electrical storm last Thursday night. Four parties were baptized last Sunday at the old Olive ranch , a few miles down the Loup. Rev. Cadwell of the Lodi Baptist church officiated. That rumbling , roaring , cracking - ing sound , which keeps people awake these nights , is but the grating of the corn as it leaps heavenward during this tip-top coyn-growing weather. Mrs. Thos. Norbury gave a music l to her many friends , at her home in the east part of town on 'rllUrsda ' night of last week. The evetl1ng was enjoyed hugely by all who were present. From the number of binders that have been pullcd out of this town this season , and from the amount of twine that is going out every day. one would .natur- ally judge tbat thcre is some' grain throughout the country. The Methodist ladies gave a lawn social at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Brittan on Frida ) ' night last. Ice cream and cake were served and a good program .was carried ' ou t. It was an en- joya ble ev'ening to all who' were present. Tbe merry-go-round d1d a land office business last Saturday night. From the nUtnber , of churcb people present one felt that he was attending a camp meeting. It's fun for ybung and old , for the jell ) ' and the mel- ancholy-and best of all it's some place to go. The foot race. which was to have taken place in this city last Saturday between At. Philpot of Arnold , and Armand Powell of Callaway , failed , to materialize. Upon the arrival of Philpot , Powell was seized with a severe case of heart failure , and surrendered - rendered his forfeit. As Philpot was very anxious for a race , a purse was raised and a race was matclJed between him and Sam McDonaid , a farmer boy who happened to be in town. One hundred yards was the distance , and the start was to be made at shot of a revolver. 'rhe race was won by Philpot , who got a start -of about ten feet before the gun went off , but who won by only about two feet. 'rhe friends of McDonald immediately matclJ- ed him for another race wtth a scoring start , and he won it by a good big margin. Several dollars - lars changed hands as a conse- quence. . , TO cUJtlt A. COl. " IN ONJ DA 1. ' Take I.natlve Dromo Qalnlnl1 Talllet. . All .1 rUK 1818 rofuud tbe UlOu y It It tllll. 10 cure , E , W.
