Papers may come and papers may go , but they do not diminish the swtilh which THE TRIBUNE cuts in this journ alistic bailiwick. Every inhabitant of this county has the undoubted right to do as he pleases , so long as he pleases to do nothing that will injure his neighbors. Do not allow yourself to be misled. The B. & M. meat market sells the choicest meats of all kinds and at the very lowest living prices. Make Noble your family grocer and many other blessings will fall to your lot , besides having the best groceries on your table that the market affords. Go and see LUDWICK'S mammoth stock of second hand goods. Furniture , cook stoves , heaters and gasoline stoves , bought and sold. Will also rent goods by the week or month.

"Some go to church to weep , while others go to sleep ; some go their wives to please , conscience , others go to ease ; some go to tell their woes , others go to show their clothes ; some go to hear the preacher , others like the solo screecher ; boys go to reconnoiter. girls go because they oughter.Many go for sage re- flectionpreoious few to help collections. " A Red Willow county school teacher received the following note from an angry parent , the other day , and has handed the same to THE TRIBUNE for publication : "Novimber the 1 1890 when my Boys are Staing away from School I have work for them and when they are home that is non of your Bus iness you haint rening My Shenty not by a dem Side at my home. " The preacher works for the souls of men and generally gets his pay ; the mer chant reaps his reward for toil in profits from day to day ; the banker sits in his office chair with his bundle of cash for rent , and gathers a harvest month by month of vigorous ten per cent ; the dealer in grog stands behind the bar and fills up the schooners high , and jin gles the tin that the boys "blow in" for portions of good old rye ; the lawyers and doctors find work to do that brings in the hard cold cash , and the men who wield the plane or spade find money to buy their hash ; but the editor has a thankless task as the busy months roll jy , and he knows no rest of body or irain while he misses the chance to die. His reward in this world never comes , jutover the silent sea , if justice reigns ic is bound to have an elegant jubilee. Wait for it. C. E. Hastings , life insurance. Our advertisers pretty generally in dulge in a change , this issue. Bead their new announcements. The annual meeting of the McCook club will bo held to-morrow evening in the club rooms at 8 o'clock. We hear it faintly whispered that a new paper of the alliance faith is one of the coming events for Indianola. Remember the entertainment and booth by the girls of the "Circle of Cheerful Doers" in the Morlan building this evening. The first of the week , D. E. Eiken- bcrry opened up a restaurant and lunch stand in the rooms lately vacated by A. G. Bum p. "This is a remarkable year for girls , " is the modest way that Frank Harris announced the birth of a daughter at his house , Monday morning. All ladies who are willing to work in a benevolent cause are cordially invited to meet at Meeker hall , Monday , No vember 17th , 2 'oclock , P. M. It is reported from McCook that several of the boys of this town stood over a grate ij the sidewalk for three hours on Wednesday morning trying to get warm. Wauneta Breeze. Saturday , Mose Erman sold his resi dence property in the northeastern part of the city to a gentleman by the name of Draxel from Beatrice , who will en gage in the real estate'business here. All the proposed amendments to the state constitution were snowed under at the late election by tremendous plurali ties. In counties where the alliance is strongest , there the vote fermnst the amendments was greatest. "The old saw , " says the sorrel-topped weather-cock of the Culbertson What- Is-It , 'as many days old as the moon is when the first snow falls , so many snows will fall during the winter , ' if it proves true will give us plenty of snow. The moon was twenty-four days old. " The oyster supper and social in Meeker hall , Monday evening , by the ladies of the Episcopal church , was largely attended and well patronized. Both gastronomic and social features were sources of unalloyed pleasure , making the affair at once successful and profitable. The social was given in honor of Rector Myers. The ladies of the Geometrical society of the Congregational church have re organized their society and changed the name of the same to "The Dorcas So ciety. " The new officers elected are : Mrs. W. F. Lawson , president ; Mrs. George Hocknell , vice-president ; Mrs. F. M. Kimmell , secretary , Mrs. F. S. Wilcox , treasurer. The next legislature will stand : Sen ate , alliance 17 , republicans 6 , demo crats 8. Alliance majority over both 3. House , alliance 54 , republicans 23 , democrats 23. Alliance _ majority 8. On joint ballot : Alliance 71 , republi cans 29 , democrats 31. It will be seen by this that the alliance will do just about as they please at the state capi tal the coming winter. The mantle of the late lamented Ana nias of the Goosetown Banner has evi dently become the chattel of Mr , Car penter of the Bartley-Long-Felt-Want , as witnesseth : "It is reported that McCook is still voting , as she fell be hind on the first count. LATER They are having war at Indianola over the count. " The "war" referred to in the postscript alludes to one of the most disgraceful and 'cowardly case.s of at tempted bulldozing and intimidation , by an armed mob against two citizens in the discharge of their duty as canvass ers , ever perpetrated in a free and en lightened land. The world is more or less familiar with the valorous deeds of Miltiades and his faithful Greeks on the plains of immortal Marathan. It has long stood in admiration over the courages defense of Thermopylae by Leonidas and his trusty Spartans. It has yielded homage to the Light Brigade the Noble Three Hundred for their unquestioning charge. But it remains for the chivat- ric sons of Goosetown to throw all previous exhibitions of gallantry in the shade and to perform a feat that will go scurrying down the corridors of time ao the most heroic achievmentof the ages. Of course the reader will appreciate that we refer to the capture of the Wil low Grove precinct poll books by a score of well-armed , intrepid Goosetowners from those desperadoes , George Roper and Ed. Ballew , while they were can vassing the county election returns , last Thursday. , Union Central Life. The street sprinkler quits business , to-morrow. * Call on C. E.
