Campbell, Register, A westekn Nebraska veteran says that in his opinion windmill and pump irrigation is destined to play an important part in the re demption of large areas in the semi-humid belt. While we are working on ditch plans and talk ing about storage reservoirs it should not be forgotten that tens of thousands of farmers in western Nebraska have it in their own power to support their families in all kinds of years by arranging to have the winds pump water out onto a few favorably located acres. Five acres well cultivated and reg ularly watered will keep the farm er from want. The natural rain fall will give him enough grain on the remainder of his farm in aver age years to furnish him a fine profit.—State Journal. Prof. W. E. Andrews, the Re publican candidate for congress, has a splendid opportunity this time to defeat his antagonist, W. A. McKeighan. Times are won derfully changed and with the un faithfulness of the Democratic party to its constituency and the inactivity in congress, there is not anything but success for republi cans this fall. Prof. Andrews is the equal of his opponent in every way, and espousing the cause of republicanism earnestly, he surely has the advantage over his adver sary.—Red Cloud Chief. The idea that this is a majority ruled government is but an amus - ing popular fallacy, and must cause the comparatively small mi nority that manipulates our gov ernmental affairs, great and small, many an excusable smile. Like the immortal Phineas T. the poli ticians have learned that the American people love to be hum bugged. and the wish is gratified. Knipple always leads in fruits and vegetables. He carries the freshest and largest assortment the market affords. Flour and Feed of all kinds at McCook Commission Co.’s.
