OUTING SHOES.
It long ago seemed as though
shoes could never be better and
never be cheaper, but they are
better now and cheaper now than
they ever were before. The great
every day favorite is our men’s
and ladies’ shoe. It is as much a
boon to the pocketbook as it is to
the feet. It won’t wear you out
to wear it out. You don’t need to
take care of it; it takes care of
itself. It will give you solid com
fort for the simple reason that a
better shoe for knockabout pur
poses has never been produced.
If prices never appealed to you
before, the price of this shoe will,
for it costs only §2.50. It will
look nicer and wear longer than
any shoe on earth.
The Palladiai) literary society of the
Nebraska university has secured Hon.
Henry Watterson, editor of the Louis
ville Courier-Journal, to deliver his cel
ebrated lecture, “Money and Morals,"
in Lincoln, January 18th.
It again suggests itself to The TRI
BUNE that our board of county commis
sioners should consider the matter of
purchasing land for a county home,
while real estate is low. Red Willow
oounty is rapidly coming to the point
where she can take care of her paupers
more cheaply perhaps in a county home
than by the present expensive manner.
The matter may well receive the thought
and attention of the commissioners at
all events.
The Farmers’ club held a short but
interesting session in the city hall, Sat
urday afternoon, William Weygint in
the chair and R. S. Hileman, secretary.
Besides discussing various topics of
moment to the farmer, the coming
convention in our city, January 18th,
was considered, and the following com
mittee of reception was named to re
neive those who may attend the conven
tion from adjoining counties: Box El
der precinct, Stephen Bolles; Red Wil
low precinct, S. L. Miller; Driftwood
precinct, R. S. Hileman; Coleman pre
cinct, A. C. Modie; Perry precinct,
John Real; Willow Grove precinct,
Wm. Weygint. They hope to enter
tain a goodly number of delegates and
to have an interesting session on the
18th instant.

The days arc now sixteen minutes

A newspaper man may never own
the earth, but, then he has it under
him all the time, which amounts to
about the same thing.
With pork at $(1 to $7 per hundred

announcement that it would be glad to
publish scraps of history and incidents
of the early settlement of Red Willow
county.

the interest lively. The social feature

It has been extremely cold, blowy
and snowy to the north, east and west,
while here the temperature has simply
been agreeable. By comparison, in
winter as well as in summer, it is found
that McCook holds the favorite climate.
While the sun rolls on in splendor
through the broad ethereal dome, while
the weary world is waiting for the cows
to hurry home; just so long as the sil
ver-moonbeams kiss the frosty face of
night, there will be two applications
where one office is in sight.—Col. Bixby.
The public should understand that
the red flag with the black center which
occasionally floats over The Tribune
office is not A BLIZZARD indicator, but
simply announces the change of temper
ature of at least 20 degrees within 12
or 24 hours. It is what is known as
the cold wave flag.
J. M. Henderson announces a public

terms. Don’t forget the date January
18th. _
We have no disposition to neglect
any interest or to mention one person
or enterprise more than another. As a
newspaper it is the intention to know
no sect, sex or class, clique or color.
We want to and will give the city all
the news obtainable. The big and lit
tle are all alike with us. A man is a man
whether he is rich or poor.
Brother Carpenter, late of the West
ern Patriot of Indianola, has vehem
ently averred in season and out of sea
son, that a pass was a bribe. But
Brother Carpenter himself does not
seem insensible to the winsome woo
ibgs of several bribes, as both his child
ren, who have secured a place in the
present legislature as well as himself,
recently traveled to Lincoln from In
dianola on bribes, to enter upon their
duties. Some reformers even find the
flesh to be weak, when passes and bribes
are in sight.

E. Boyer from near Hemingford
called in Tuesday, accompanied by Mr.

low county. Mr. Colling is out here
as a representative of colonies of Ger

county, and several of the south
western counties, who intend to
come heare to live and farm. Mr.
Boyer is taking him over all parts of
the county, that he can see for himself,
and as seeing is believing, there is but
little doubt but that he will find the
county all that has been represented,
as the best one, where cheap lands,
capable of producing the best crops,
and with all natural resources. Mr.
Colling is a man of age and experience,
and says all this county needs to pro
duce prosperity, is farmers who know
how to farm and properly develop it.
He says that no farmer can farm and
run politics at the same time, and his
are not that kind of people.—Alliance

Its Victim To Consumption.
There are three roads which lead
from health to consumption. Over one
of these roads pass all of the great mul
titude of people who die every year of
consumption. Each route begins with
health and happiness and ends with di
sease and death. They are described
as follows: 1st road, a slight cold—
neglected—settles in the head or throat
—chronic catarrh—extends to the lungs
—consumption—death. 2d road, a slight
cold—neglected—cough—settles on the
lungs—cough gradually growing worse
—consumption—death. 3d road, a cold
—neglected—settles in the throat—
hoarseness—short breath—consump
tion—death.
Thousands have just started on one
of these roads, all of whom could be
easily cured by Fe-ru-na, thousands
more are half way to the fatal end of
one of these roads who are still curable
by a course of treatment with Pe-ru-na:
and yet other thousands are near the
end whose last days would be made
more bearable and hope of recovery
more probable by commencing Pe-ru-na
without delay.
