to the city each day. At present

Mr and Mrs. Herbert Watts
are enjoying a visit from his
father and mother , Mr. and Mrs.

ing and will remain for a couple

nis and li ye on a ranch for a

Frank Palmer and J. A. J en-
nings of Loup township , were in
the city one day last week , and ,
1though Mr. Palmer has resided .
there for 18 ) 'ears , this was his' '
second visit to the county seat
during that time , and stated that
he would vote against divJsion
as he was well satisfied as it now
is , not caring to have his taxes
increased as he knows they would
be should the county be divided.
O. P. Olson , who resides near
Callaway , was a business visitor
to Broken Bow last Saturday.
Regardless of the fact that he is
a nearb resident of Callaway , he
is opposed to dividing Custer
county on the line proposed ,
which goes to show that he
knows that such a division would
greatly increase his taxes and he
is burdened with enough at the
present writing.
One of the most important
offices to be filled at the election
is that of assessor. Everybody
who has property is Int rested in
having a man of experience , good
judgment and absolute fairness
to have chargeof the assessments ,
one who has no friends to reward
or enemies to punish. . M. R.
'Foster is just that kind of a man.
He is one of our old residentR and
as deputy assessOl of Victori1L
township bas been so accurate in
Hsting the values of property
that the hoard of equalization
have found it unnecessary to
change his assessments. You
cannot elect i1. man better fitted
for the position or one who will
discharge the duties thereof more
honestly , faithfully or conscien-
tiously. He is not a politician
and you may rest assured that
his deputies will be appointed
with reference to the wishes 01
each township and the fitness of
the applir.ants.

r c. P. 11'00te of Dunning , was a
city visitor Monday.
Republicans , don't split your
ticket. vote it stright.
'fhere are thany honest , sincere
men in favor of county divison ,
men who believe in good government -
ment and that by divison the
whole county will be benefitted.
But look over the le"clers. Is
there a man in the whole bunch ,
from Dick Brega down to Prof.
H. H. Hyatt. who hasn't a selfish -
fish per onal notive in the fight.
Misses Emma Scott , Florence
'rhostensen and Christina Springer -
er entertained the G. 't' . B. club
at the Springer residence Monday
night with a , "pumJ > kin party , "
pumpkins being stnctly in evidence -
dence and arranged in every conceivable -
ceivable shape , the refreshments
being served in pumpkins cut in
halves. 'l'he G. 'r. B. club is a I
new one in the city , composed of I
'
fourteen young ladies , organized'
to spend an evening together
pleasantly every other week.
o G. H. Thorpe , head miller at
the Broken Bow Mill the past
fiften years , met with a severe
accident last Saturday which will
perhaps give him a'lay off for
two or three months. In stepping -
ping over an old well one foot
slipped and fell , breaking his leg.
.Mr. Thorpe is about sixty years
of age and the accident is a
severe one. However , his host of
friends hope he will recover more
specdily than the physician an-
tici atc .
'I'he division meeting at Ans-
lel Mon lay night was very
slimly attended , although Dick
Brega , the division grand stand
artist was advertised as the star
orator. Itvas found necessary
at the time for the meeting to begin -
gin to go out and drum up a
crowd or else tall { to the empty
bcnches. Judge Sullivan of this
cit.r was in attendance and upon
being given an opportunit.y to
speak proceeded to do so and
racked the arguments of the
divisionists so badly they didn't
know where they were at.
The new oven in the City
Bakery , which lIas been in operation -
tion only about a month , caved
in some time during Monday
night on account of not enough
arch ill the top having been
given it at the time of construc-
tion. It is a heavy blow to Mr.
Blair who has been to a g-reat ex-
f.lense in fitting up a new bakery
in the Gleim block , yet he 5lid
not suspend business on account
of the misfortune , but fired up
the old oven on the North side
and is supplying his customers
as usual , while the collapsed oven
is being rebuilt.
Will Prove a Valuable Member.
The present is the age of young
menand recognizing this fact the
republicans have nominated one
of the brightest young men m
the county for supervisor of the
sixth district. Herbert E. Myers
is strictly a Custer couuty product -
duct , and every voter of his district -
trict ought to give him a chance
to show what kind of stuff he is
made oi. Mr. M . vcrs left a Cus-
ter county farm.to obtain an
education in the state university.
He graduated with high honors ,
and was accorded o.Je : of the very
brightest students in that great
institution of learning. He is
splendidly equipped in ev ry way
for entry upon almost any business -
ness or profession , but like a
hard headed , sensible young man ,
he has returned to the farm and
is proud to be known as a farmer
in th ( > best county in the best
state in the union. He has made
good in every position in which
he has been placed and t 1ere is
no rea30n to doubt , that if 'elect-
ed as a member of the board of
supervisors , he will be one of the
most valuable members of that
body , and make a record for
which none will need to be
ashamed. The taxpayers of Cus-
ter county contribute their share I
towards the support of the state. .
university and the only way they
can get value in return for the
same is to get it out of the boys
who are thus enabled to get a
college education. Farmers' boys
all over the state are coming out
of this Institution fitted for all
professions , and particularly for
the profession of farming , the
one great industry of this state ,
and the old methods of farming
ar giving way to the : scientific
farming which requires brain as
well as muscle. 'l'hose who may
b inc1in d to make light of
Herbert Myers , because h.e is a
young man and a college gradn-
te , do not know him. Added to
his natural abilify , he inherits
good business sense , and J1as had
a training and discipline which
will insure success in anything
he undertakes , aud by eiecting
him a member of the board of
supervisors the taxpayers of the
sixth district will be acting . for
their own best interests.
