tion of law should be dealt with ' 'impar
tially , " or the ordinance repealed.
The Social Club dance , postponed

disturbed the dance by pounding on the
side of the building , and concluding
from the terrific noise produced , they
must have used large chunks of wood.
This may be fun for the boys , but there
are healthier things that arc funny , and
they had better look after them. Anoth
er dance next Wednesday evening.

terms and entire satisfaction given.

28-tf. McCook , Nebraska.
It is with feelings of regret that we
record the removal of our townsman ,
J. E. Cochran , and family , to McCook.
Neb. They have been residents of
Oberlin for about four years. Mrs.
Cochran is a lady in every sense of the
word , and will be missed in Oberlin so
ciety very much , as she is a lady of
high literary attainments and held the
respect , love and esteem that culture
and an amiable disposition always beget.
Mr. C. is a high-minded , energetic , pub
lic spirited Christian gentleman , which
characteristics , together with his pro
fessional attainments , secured for him
in 1882 the strongest vote for County
Attorney , in proportion to the number
polled , ever cast for a candidate in
Decatur county , which position he re
signed to follow his profession in his
new home. We commend them to the
good people of McCook. Oberlin Eye.
