OFFICIAL CITY& COUNTY PAPER.
THE Gulbertson Republican en
ters its seventh year with prospects
fully merited by Mr. Eisley , its
energetic publisher.
JUDGE J. E. COCHIIAN of McCook
was a pleasant caller at this office
on Tuesday. The Judge has made
an excellent Judge during his term
of office and is a friend of the
farmer. Bonkelrnan Republican.
THE expression of the Indepen
dent press of the Eleventh district
is highly complimentary to Judge
1 Cochran and shows that there is
a strong sentiment among the new
party people in favor of the Judge.
THERE is a possibility that the
brethren of the Valley press will
not "excurt" to the mountains as
resolved at a recent meeting of the
association. The managers of the
mountain roads can't see it in that
light.
WITH the defective caulking of
last fall to combat , and the evident
lack of confidence in party leaders
resulting from the treacherous
mismanagement of last fall's cam-
paigH , the political prospect is not
altogether inviting.
THERE is not another man in the
eleventh judicial district who would
bring to the district bench more
of the honor , dignity and qualifi
cation that should belong to it than
Hon. J. E. Cochran. He has been
tried and has never failed to respond
spend to the calls of right and
justice. Benkelmau Bee ( Ind. j
NEW YORK begins to lay claim
to being the money center of the
world. "Wheii the Barings broke
down under their load of Argen-
tine bonds and London was in a
panic , "Wall street gave no sign of
distress and helped out the finan
ces of Great Britain by sending
over $50,000,000 or § 60.000,000
of gold as it was wanted , without
in the least disarranging its own
money market. Journal.
IN Brooklyn'Wednesdaya bronze
statute of HenrvWard Beecher was
*
unveiled. It is a mark of respect
and honor which the city pays to
the memory of its greatest man.
it is well that posterity in this way
J
tries to keep in touch , as it weie ,
with the graces and power of the
illustrious dead. Henry Ward
Beecher was , perhaps , the greatest
pulpit orator of modern times , and
by his force and ability created for
himself a fame that may be more
enduring than the bronze figure
that has been erected to commemo
rate his name. In the world of
thought he was a leader and his
ide.as of reform and progress have
become imbedded in the literature
of his country.
JUDGE COCHRAN was up from
McCook on Saturday last to talk
with his many friends concerning
his prospects for endorsement by
the Independent people. He re
turned well pleased with the out
look , as every one in this vicinity
is willing to concede that the Judge
has done as much for the laboring
people as the laws of our state
would allow , and nearly every one
is free to acknowledge that this
has been done from none but hon
est motives. One of our leading
independents expressed himself as
very strong in favor of the Judge
rather than any new person for
this place that he has yet learn
ed of , and he further declared that
he knew that speaking thus , he
was expressing the sentiment of a
good majority of his fellows.

SENATOR MANDEIISON is credited
with saying in New York that Ne
braska would cast her vote in the
next national Kepublican conven
tion for Harrison. He added that
Elaine had always been strong in
this stale and had many followers ,
but as the Maine man was not con
sidered among the "possibilities , "
there was no use of comparing the
strength of the two men.
THE writing telegraph company
of New York made a practical test
of their machine for transmitting
words in the hand writing of the
sender of the dispatch , the other
day , with complete success. It
will send the dispatch as rapidly
as the sender can write it , as the
pen connects with the instrument
and the pen at the other end of the
line automatically reproduces every
stroke. In the test twenty-five
words a minute were sent. One of
the uses of the new process will be
to send the latest news to the press.
A little time can be saved by hav
ing the message complete as copy
when taken from the instrument.
Journal.
THE Nebraska method of assess
ing property is always an impene
trable mystery to the stranger
within our gates. It is the cause
of much misunderstanding , and
there is no doubt that our credit
suffers through our blundering
and unequal system. The agent
who is looking for a * cite for the
new government building at Be-
ati ice is greatly perplexed to find
that property charged with an as
sessment of § 2,500 cannot be
bought for less than $20,000. A
man from the east begins to sus
pect at once that the owner is ' at
tempting to play a gouge game on
iim , and there is a hesitancy in
naking the purchase and a good
leal of misunderstanding all
iround. It is generally admitted
; hat it would be better for all in-
erests to raise the standard of val-
mtion. It has not been possible
to bring this about as yet , but ii
the tax percentage could be limit
ed by Jaw to a very low figure it is
possible that the assessments
would be forced up to the point of
actual value in spite of the disin
clination of the county and muni
cipal boards to pay as much into
the state trensury in taxes as their
neighbors. The plan seems en
tirely feasible , and it could be
easily tried by reducing the limit
of the levy gradually from time to
time until a just and equitable
point was reached. Bee.
