The continued warm weather has
tendency to break down and enervat
the human system. Considerable pick
ness incident upon 100-degrees-belo\v
zero weather is reported.
Through a defect in the mechanisr
of our column rules , we are unable t
observe the commendable custom of in
verting the same in tribute to our hon
ored dead General Grant.
R. A. Cole , Merchant Tailor of Me
Cook , for the season of 1885-6 , has jus
received some of the nicest samples o
cloths ever manufactured for the trade
Shop first door west of the B. & M
Pharmacy.
Arrangements are being made by Wm
Fruin to handle grain , this fall. Hi
will erect a small elevator if the busi
ness warrants it , and' will probably as
sociate a gentleman by the name of Rie
of Illinois with him.
Work was commenced on W. M. An
derson's residence , south of the M. E ,
church , Monday. Mr. Anderson is book
keeper for the Chreago Lumber Yard ,
and will move his family to McCook as
soon as his home is ready for their re
ception.
The exterior appearance of Lytlt
Bros , hardware store has been very ma
terially improved by a few coats of fresl
paint. They are also having some at
tractive signs painted on the side and
front of the building. John Eskerson is
the artist.
Preparations are being made to en
close the Staddleman lots on Main Ave
nue with a barb wire fence. It seems
to us that the party ought to be restrain
ed from building a fence of that nature
right on our main street. It will not
only be dangerous , but unsightly.
This paper has repeatedly rebuked
the miserable practice of throwing re
fuse in the public streets and alleys of
the city. We are at a loss to understand
why anyone will continue in a course
productive of so much discomfort and
one so dangerous and unsightly , in the
face of earnest protest.
The innocent little "type-louse" has
ever been a source , never failing , of
amusement in the printing office , and of
discomfiture to the unsophisticated as
well. The way one of "our girls" was
"taken in , " last week , at the Democrat
office is a caution. The unsophisticated
was as warm as two wet hens , fully.
The Methodist brethren have pur
chased lots immediately south of the
church upon which they will erect a par
sonage in the near future. The design
will be very like Squire Fisher's resi
dence , without the basement. By the
eye of faith we can see Bro. Wheeler and
but we will not anticipate the future.

Our friends up at Hayes Centre are
at logger-heads over the title to the land
upon which the town is built. County
Judge Sears , in behalf of one party , has
opened up the ball , and unpleasant re
sults are likely to follow. Better ar
range the matter amicably if possible ,
it will be more satisfactory to all , and
less expensive.
The Building Association has dispos
ed of the residence on Marshall street ,
built and owned by them , and until late
ly occupied by R. E. Woods and family ,
to 0. Gordis , who has been running the
boarding train for a number of months
past. Consideration , $1,200. Mr.Gor-
flis also purchased a property in South
McCook from H. C. Eider , paying § 540
cash down therefor.
A Grand Army of the Eepublic Post
will be mustered in at Menard's Hall ,
Thursday evening , August 6th , by Past
Department Commander J. C. Bonnell ,
Lincoln , assisted by Assistant Adjutant
Greneral Shirley and Department Com
mander Cole. All old soldiers are re
quested to bring their discharge papers
ir transfer cards without fail. The head
jfficers of the state are expected to be
iere , and a large turn-out is desired.
We are' gratified to mention that our
jentle reference concerning the estab-
ishment of a grain market at this point
las occasioned considerable favorable
eminent. The matter ought to be thor-
lughly canvassed. McCook will need
o husband and foster all her available
esources and territory. The increase
n trade will doubtless more than repay
vhatever outlay may be made. In view
if the encouraging crop prospects , this
uatter should receive prompt attention.
JUSTICE COURT J. C. Lockharfc un
Uerwent a little cooling process in th <
lock-up , Fridayafter which he was triei
before Justice Colvin and fined $5 am
costs ; all for the'privilege of gcttinj
beastly drunk. After his release In
"blew in" another five dollar William
with one of our attorneys , for the fur
ther privilege of ascertaining the legal
ity of the ordinance under which he wa
arrested and fined. The ordinance i
appears is very constitutional. * * Fret
Trebel , who lately came down frou
Benkelman , where he has been for thi
past few months , was lodged iu thi
cooler , Saturday , for being drunk ant
noisy , and in due time was brought be
fore Justice Colvin and fined. The "how
came-you-so" individuals were quite nu
merous , last week.

lent quality at the City Bakery.
The new county jail is finished. It is
a two-story , well built structure , and is
far ahead of many eastern institutions
of this kind. The second story is to be
occupied by a jailer. A strong steel
cell occupies a place on the first floor
for the benefit of hard cases. Contrac
tor Teas deserves much credit for
promptness and taste in the matter. *
* W. C. LaTourette , of McCook , was
arrested last week on the charge of de

Elsewhere in this issue will be found
an account of the death and a sketch of
the life of General Grantwho , passed
from this stage of activity at 8:07 :
o'clock , A. M. , last Thursday. McCook ,
in common with the various cities and
towns of the country , indicated her re
spect and sorrow by the flying of flags
at half mast , draping houses and places
of business in mourning , etc. Senti
ments tender and true respecting the
departed hero are heard on every hand.
The voice of slander and disparagement
finds no utterance.
"Catch-'ein-every-time" fly paper at
the B. & M. Pharmacy.
We would kindly suggest that for a
fortnight at least Bro. Bishop indite the
following petition to the thrown whence
floweth mercy : " 0 , Lord , deliver us
from presumptuous sins ! ' * The amount
of Simon-pure gall our erring brother
must possess to criticise a lecturer of
the attainments of Dr. Hicks of the
University in such a paralyzing manner
is simply incomprehensible. The learn
ed doctor will have to excuse the Cour
ier on the plea of emotional insanity or
dch like.

A force of engineers , under the direc
iion of A. B. Smith of Lincoln , have

A terrible warning as against the use
if drink is that of J. D. Newton , who

> f sheol , the past two days , the result
if over-indulgence in alcoholic drinks ,
[ he sight of a man of the business qual-
fications and qualities of heart of J. D.

stronger temperance sermon than ever

J. F. Megrue has fenced 400 acres
in one pasture , indeed the great amount
of wire fence built in this locality is
simply wonderful , turning thu road on
almost every section.
The business portion \railton is not
built quite as densely as in other large
cities , owing probably to the fact that
many of our business houses arc located
on the respective claims of their pro
prietors. We will brieily notice a num
ber of Vailton's business interests. First
we will mention our general merchan
dise store on the north side ; also the
wind-mill agency of J. P. Squire. On
the south side we find the postoffice ,
'Squire Williams presiding over the
same. Mr. Williams also does consider
able work iu making land surveys , and
a general real estate business. West of
the P. 0. stands the Yailton school
building , while farther down the street
we pass the sorghum factory and repair
shop of John Kolb. Last but not least
we will mention the blacksmith shop
owned by Mr. Matson. We know of our
own personal knowledge that Mr. Mat-
son is one of the most skilled workman
we have ever met. So we bespeak for
him a liberal patronage.
