Meeker finally repaired things and they are now ready to greet the inspector with all the compliments of the season. What Objection? No valid reason can be supposed why any democrat cannot become an appli cant for office at present, nor do we know' of any law which prevents demo crats from kicking—what would people do if they couldn’t kick—against any fellow who is to be appointed. Evident ly our McCook friends understand this, because some few of them—very few— are kicking because Frank H. Spearman will probably be the next receiver and Ambrose S. Campbell the next register of the McCook U. S. land office. The public objection to Mr. Spearman is that he was not born a democrat, Mr. Camp bell is not a lawyer, and both are cold hearted fellows. These objections are so silly as to need but little mention. McCook has had a land office twelve years, and the business has been done reasonably well, notwithstanding the fact that no lawyer ever held the position of either register or receiver. Some few will accuse the present register of being a. lawyer, but he can easily disprove this accusion. Our McCook friends have the right to roar, but they should have some better basis for doing it than the objec tions above sighted. It is very evident that the gentlemen above named will be appointed. Mr. Spearman is’ well known in McCook, Mr. Campbell, who is a stranger there, we will guarantee to be a gentleman, a democrat, and in every way qualified to Fulfill the duties of, the office. McCook will be fortunate in securing a citizen as jnergetic as Mr. Campbell. — Hastings Democrat. LIST OF PATENTS Received at the McCook United States land office, August 28th, 1893. Bosen, Nelse P.

The Endeavorers pretty nearly had a picnic out at John Longneckor's, yester day. Bnt the Endeavorers did not mate rialize in considerable numbers, and the few that went joined the Methodist Sun day school picnic in that neighboahood, which was participated in by a number of our citizens. It is said that a Hitchcock county jus tice of the peace uses the following mar riage ceremony: “Do you solemnly swear that you will support the constitution of the United States, the constitution of the state of Nebraska, and perform the duties of man and wife to the best of your ability?” Some blood and a bloody coupling pin discovered back of Strasser’s saloon on Wednesday morning, have given rise to all manner of rumors and conjectures; but there is perhaps very little occasion for alarm. The Tribune is pleased to learn that the T. E. McCracken matter was unduly enlarged upon by the daily newspapers. He is still in Washington, but we under stand that the matter has been fixed up.
