_ , Misg Cora Foote , of D nning"
who has' been in the C1ty the
\ l past month returned home Tuesday -
day morning to take charge of a I
school near her home.
, The Josephine Gamble Concert
company , which was to have
appeared hrre Wednesday night ,
last week for the benefit of the
. band , was snow bound and failed
to. reach here in time to fill the I
date.
Custer county has become one I
the "goodest" in the state and
the ounty jail , which. has held I
criminals of both high and low
degree , is now vacant and the
boot-heels of none but the jailor
click on its adamant floor.
, The fusionis nominated a
ticket under ra road dictation ,
adopted a platform which lacks
'sincerity , and 'the ' fusion , com-
l 1ittee has ma e alliance with
every orporation interest in he
state 1n a desperate attempt
to win. .
C. B. Cox , for many years in
the employ of the Burlington
railway , returned Tuesday morning -
ing from St. Joe , Mo. , where he I
went two weels ago to have a
cancer in his nose treated. It
/I lIas not entirely healed but he
was assured that he would not
suITer with 'it again very soon.
. The program for the meeting
of the Custer County Medical
associ.\tion which will meet in
Broken Bow on November 13th ,
has been arranged s tnat
citizens will be interested in hearing -
ing the topics and discussions ,
and all are invited to be present
at the meeting.
' ! 'he southward flight.of duc s
has commenced and farmers residing -
ing from 10 to 20 miles west
report a larger flight than for
. several years , while report comes
, from the Platte that there are
larger numbers along the river
and on the ponds adjacent thereto
with plenty of hunters to attend
, to them.
Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Brainerd ,
\ ( ) f Mineral , Ill. , parents of Mrs.
F.1. . Smith , arrived in the city
last Saturday night and will
rema111 for a couple of weeks.
p.rhey are enroute to California
where they will spend the winter
and expect to stop here again on
their return home.
The storm last week caused
great damage to trees in both
citv and country , the fruit trees
especially suffered with broken
limbs , caused by being loaded
heavily with ice and whipped by
the wind. Farmers report the
suffering by unsheltered stocl { t < 1
have been extreme and that their
cries were pitiful.
. The republicans arc conducting
an open campaign , informing th ( ;
people just where they stand nd
what they will do. The fusion.
'ists have adopted "gun shoe'
_ _ _ tactics , relying in corporatiot
\rickery and boodle to pull them
through. 'rhe , people and espec.
ially the farmers can defeat th <
schemers by turning out in ful
t force on election day.
I Rev. Barrett was in the citJ

Jas. Henry , of Elim township ,
was a city visitor Saturday.
It's pretty nearly all over now-
except figuring up the majority
for the republican ticket.
Anyone wishing cakes of all
discriptions can leave orders.at
Hotel Heneau. Fruit cakes a
specialty.
Word q > tnes from North Platte
that Prof. E. A. Garlish , formerly -
ly of this city , is the proud father
of a bouncing baby boy.
Next week the country news-
'papers will be profusely illustrated -
trated with pictures of the successful -
cessful nommces and--roosters.
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Bruce re-
I turned home last night from a
two weels' visit with their son
and family at Naponee , Nebraska.
And many good wives in.
Broken Bow are heard to remark :
"I never saw so many pesky nics
so late in the fall as there are
now. "
Miss Fraucis Langson went to
York last Satut.day ; where she
will remain for an indefinite
length of time. Her mothcr ,
Mrs. Lizzie Langson , will go
there next Saturdav and visit for
-
for a day or so.
Something is wrong-radically
wrong-in this neck 0' woods in
the matrimonial whirl. No
marriage licQnses have been
issucd in the county since Oct ) ber
23rd. We can't expect very much
of an increase in population at
this rate.
Among other things ordered
by the ladies of the Baptist
church to serve for dinner and
supper at the Temple theatre on
election day are 715 spring
chic1ens and other eatables in pn-
portipn. They will have enough ,
however , to satisfy all , no matter
how heartily they eat. Make
alrangements to eat at the
Temple that day.
Quite a number of pranks were
played last night , some of them
still in evidence at noon today ,
the re&ult of celebrating Hal-
lowe'en. One of the ludicrous
scenes t greet citizens this morning -
ing was a wheelbarruw in the
top of a tree. We have heard
of no destruction of prosperty
further than a Stl ip of sidewalk
turned over near tbe Bruce lumber -
ber yard.
The Central Telephone company -
pany has recovered from the shock
given it last week by the sleet
storm. Here in the city a dozen
pole were brolen ofT and about
one' hundred pbones put Lut f
, business , vhi1e all of the twenty-
thre-e country lines , with one
exception , were down in a numbel
of places. As soon as the storm
subsided the company put a force
. of men to work and all phones
. were again connected by evening
yesterday.
You've no doubt heard 01
"some potatoe3 , " but this tim <
the subject is apples , of whic1
twelve car loads have been reo
ceived in Broken Bow the pas1
four weeks , at an average of 50 (
bushels to the car , 6.000 bushel !
in all. Tbis is certainly "som (
apples' . ' and leads one to wonde !
what in the world a town tbh
size will do with so many. In ; :
r couple or tbree months hen e
' we'll wondel
when tbey're scarce ,
r what in Sam Hill became of 'em
II
About two weeks ago Mis !
S Bertha Craig left for Purcell

:1 : brother. Hecently W ill Osborne
[ ) deputy county clerk , leased UII
; bnck resi ence vacated by Josepl
,
Huddart m the south-west par
'i of the city. Last Sunday Mr
Osborne left for Purcell , India !
Territory. These facts c earl :
indicate that when the person
named return to the ci ty it wil
be on tbe same train and tha
while the deputy clerk will sti ]
be Mr. Osborne the name of th
lady will not be Craig. Mr. O

C County Clerk Pigman's o ce is I
one of tile busy places this week , I , '
the ballots aud other accessories
necessary to conduct the election
next Tuesday being assembled
so they can be sent out to the
various precincts tomorrow and
Saturday.
l obert French , grand custodian -
dian , of Kearney , accompained
by other grand lodge officers ,
are in the city for the purpose
of dedicating the new Masonic
temple tonght. In addition to
the regular dedicatory ceremony
of the order an elaborate pro-
grain. has been prepared for the I
occaslOU.
Republicans in Brolen Bow
should not fail to make an X in
the qu'are on the' ballot at the
right. of I.J. Cushman's name for
Supervisor. During the time he
has served as a member of the
hoard he has proven himself
worthy and ever alert to the best
interests of this district. Do not
get side-tracked ou this pro-
position.
Early last spring the ltepubli-
can c nlmeJlced hoosting for improvement -
provement and. the betterment
of BroleQ Bow , and every week
since then articles have apoeared
in these columns along th t line
and it was indeed gratifying that
prominent citizens became imbued -
bued with the idea and formulated -
lated an organization to work in
a oractical way and bring these
things to pass , and as oqr esteemed - I
teemed contemporaries , the !
Beacon and the Chief , have' '
signi fie heir willingness to hel p ,
the RnpUJlI.ICAN feels that its
labors have not been in vain.
Again , as w111tei : approaches ,
this part of the state is cursed
with abomnible kerosene. A lamp
fiUed to the brim will give a fair
light until the oU is about half
burned , and then all the trim-
ing and coaxing that can be done
is useless-the lamp cannot be
made to 'give a decent light. , In
case the Standard Oil people
come forth with the usual expIations -
tions , it may be stated that the
I trouble is not with the w1cks and
I burners. It is due simply and
solely to the Stan lard Oil cOJn-
pany furnishing oil to patrons
that wi11 not burn decently and
charg-ing them a high price for
it. It costs money to run col-
J ges.
Vote on the Amendment.
As the republican , democrat
and populist state conventions
each adopted resolutions endorsing -
ing the electio.J of a railroad
cemmission , the tickets have
been printed so that a straight
Vote on either of those ballots
will be counted for the amend-
ment. In fact all tickets voted
by ei ther of these parties will be
valid for the amendment unless
an X is laced in the square opposite -
posite "Against Amendment. "
As the socialists and prohibitionists -
ists did not endorse tha amendment -
ment they will be required to
vote For or Against the amendment -
ment to Have their'votes CQU nteTI
onthat question.
