Toht FLOYD speaks of Ira Cole
as young and beautiful-the-
anarchist.
; THE wood is full of "bully boys
t with vitreous eyes with whom it is
a Leasure to trade Horses" but
there are not offices enough in the
, ' county to accommodate them all ,
P
WITH the eye of faith Ira Cole
peers through the exquisite parting -
ing of his voluminous hirsute heritage -
itage and declares that the day is
.swiftly approaching ' when international -
tional bimetalism will be a glittering -
ing reality. Let her gut , Ira.
MR J. C. MooRE of Tyrone
precinct , who made such a gallant
but unsuccessful canvas for the
county superintendency at the
election two years since , is a candidate -
didate for renomination to that
office at the coming Republican
county convention so we learn
from a private source.
TILE true aristocracy of the
world is generally in rags , lays
some times on straw and dies on
the streets. Riches are a curse to
the race when hoarded to oppress.
Something is radically wrong.
The present must find the way ;
the past is inaclequate-Rev. Dr.
Gun saulus.
J. G. TATE , grand master of the
Nebraska A. 0. U. W. , is enjoying
an ocean trip , and will be absent a
couple of months. At the late
meeting of the supreme lodge he
was elected supreme foreman , and
in the natural order of succession
Mr. Tate will advance to the head
of the order at the next national
meeting.
NOTWITHSTANDING that it is
quite early , the list of candidates
for the nomination for the Judgeship -
ship of the Fourteenth district is
already pretty long. A m o it g
those mentioned from the Republican -
lican ranks are : Norris of Beaver
City , Benson of McCook , Keyes
and Starr of Indianola. From the
populist party , Smith of India-
nola , McClure of Beaver City and
Blackledge of Culbertson , are will-
lug to be slaughtered if need be.
J. A. TULLES of this city has
for the second time been appointed -
ed custodian of the grand lodge.
Mr. Tulleys is a 33rd degree
Mason , and has the confidence of
his brethren. Mr. Tulleys has no
equal as far as efficiency in masonry -
ry goes. He belongs to some fifteen -
teen or twenty different societies
and with a numberless number of
degrees , yet it is said of him that
he never makes a mistake in any
of the lodges but has the work
down to perfection in all of them.
The grand lodge has made no
mistake in this appointmeut.-Red
Cloud Chief.
"NEVER since I have been in the
business" , says Chauncey Depew ,
"has there been such utter demoralization -
alization in freight rates as at the
present time" . Speaking of the
inter-state commerce commission
the gentleman adds that that body
"cannot enforce its rulings and
convict railroad officials for rate
cuttings because of the esprit du
corps among railroad men , which
prevents them from giving evidence -
dence against each other" . Absolute -
solute government control seems
to be the logical conclusion of this
vitally important matter. Pools ,
associations and commissions have
so far all failed.
