i S i TvUuii , By F. M. KIMMELL , $1.60 A YEAR IN ADVANCE. RED WILLOW county's aid warrant - rant was sold this week at par. THE legislature has accomplished - ed few things of which Nebraskans need be proud. TilE income tat law may live , but its usefulness has been mortally - ly wounded , and it seems to be destined to be finally dismembered piece-meal. THE intimation by Rev. Dr. I.K. Landing of Boston that Grover was drunk at the celebrated New York dinners , is indignantly and emphatically denied by friends of the president. THE U. S. supreme court very seriously cripples the efficiency of the income tax in a recent decision which favors the corporations in a tllorouglly rank manner , as might be expected. A WOMAN in politics in Cleveland - land , Ohio , clearly demonstrated the adaptability of her sex to circumstances - cumstances in the late campaign. She was It republican and a candidate - date for a nomination to office , but another got there , and she got left. She turned democrat so quick that when the democratic convention sat a few days later she was full- fledged and received the coveted nomination at the glands of that party , only to participate in the general disaster that overtook the whole ticket at election.-Journal , IN France bells are rung when frost is tlireateiied and immediately - ly the people set fire to tar in their vineyards. The dense smoke protects - tects the vines from injury. This system will be adopted iii America soont'r or later. The weather service - vice maintained by our state and national governments will give adequate warning of threatened freezing weather and the smoke will do the rest. ' It would have been worth several millions of dollars - lars to the people of Florida this year had the French plan been fully effective there when the blizzard - zard arrived-Journal. RED A7ILLOW.

Mary Canaga was expected to arrive home shortly , but a letter recently received states that she has taken another school in Iowa , The Red Willow literary closed with a suitable program. It was no part of the program , however , that a rough-Mouthed boy had to have his ears boxed before it was over. BOX ELDER.

Thomas Carlyle says : "The Book of fob is one of the grandest things ever written with a pen ; our first statement , in books , of the problem of the destiny of man , and the way God takes with hint on this earth ; grand in its simplicity , an epic melody , sublime in its sorrow and reconciliation , a choral melody , old as the heart of roan , soft as the summer midnight , wonderful as the world with its seas and stars ; and there is no other thing in the Bible , or out of it , of equal literary merit.

" The drummer fired his half smoked cigar at the enspidor viciously. "Well , " hrr explained , "after I had been gazing at her for an hour or so , I thought I'd try her with a newspaper. She declined itwith thanks and a beautiful - tiful smile. Then I tried her with anew now novel , with the same result Then I sent over some nice fresh fruit , and it came back. Thea I wanted to fix the window for her , and again the thanks and the declination. That lovely smile iswhat bro'-te me up , " sighed the drummer - mer , "and I was sure if I had half a chance I would get acquainted. About 10 minutes after I had made the last offer - fer the train stopped at a station , and she nodded for me to come over. By George , I was sure I had made a 10 strike , and I fairly flew to her. ' ' Will you do me a favor ? ' she asked , with that same enchanting smile , as if I wouldn't have done her a million , " and the drummer sighed again.
