m 9 The McCook Tribune is a g. o.
19 p. paper , but we're glad to note
1 I m 8 editorial utterances are con-
1 eiderably out of time with the
I "yellow-dog" element of that party.
B 1 Editor Kimmell gets up a crisp
• 1 local paper , and then , too , he sort
HI o' hews to the line , even though
I the chips may hit a political neigh-
I bor in the eye. Holdrege Pro-
I I gvees.
I I If W. E. Annin of the State
Journal does not succeed raising
B fl a first-class rumpus in the ranks
B ° f the Republicans of Nebraska it
B fl will not be his fault. He is devot-
B m * n every revolution in his wheol-
B B house to that undesirable end.
B il And the distribution of patronage
B H seems to be the only issue involved.
H I Shall patronage be paramount to
H I principle ? Nit.
H I The Omaha Bee finds that
H 1 "there is nothing oppressive in the
H m present law defining the require-
H m ments of a legal newspaper. On
H I ie con rary , the law is , if any-
H thing , lax in the protection it af-
_ m fords the public for whose benefit
Hj m publications of legal notices are
Hj m made. The people are entitled to
HI S the widest possible publicity in all
H ! B matters where public notice of ju-
Hfl dicial or administrative proceed-
HjK * n&8 are enj ° ined > anl the law
| B should be framed solely with that
BBj object in view" . While the InK -
K dianola Reporter thinks the law
BB ; aforesaid was "conceived in sin and
HBj born in iniquity" . But Colonel
H * Rosewater expresses the opinion of
BB' almost every publisher in the state.

B | * > "Republicanism means justice
HB in politics. Republicanism stands
HK for an honest expression of the will
B ; of the people at the polls. Repub-
HB licanism means progress in civili-
HS zation. Republicanism means an
Bj honest dollar for the rich and poor
HB alike and a chance to earn it in an
H honest way" . This definition of
K Republicanism given by R&pre-
n ! seutative Jenkins will be approved
Ul by every Nebraska Republican as
Hp telling what Republicanism ought
H | to mean. Unfortunately for the
Hk P'H'ty ' it has been burdened by a
Hj lot of ingrates who have not been
Bf seeking honesty in politics and
HII who have used the party to procure
HP public offices for them , only to be-
MSlf tray the trust and injure their ben-
Rpj efactors. Republicanism will again
Hj. be triumphant if the party follows
Kf honest leadership and honors only
HEf men who deserve honor and show
HEf their appreciation of it by faithful
Bf and conscientious discharge of
BB J duty. Bee.

The Reporter , in its last issue ,
seemed to take the ground that a
saloon was not a very bad thing ,
insomuch as it has helped our
school finances. I presume he ar
gues that liquor will be sold any
way , and why not get pay for it ?
This seems to be a pretty bad arg
ument for a Sunday school super
intendent. I suppose he expects
to die some time ; then why not put
himself up as a target and let the
boys shoot at him for a dollar a
shot ; it might help his family. No ,
Brother Phillips , don't license a
wrong , that won't make it right ; a
business that is right and honest

Many cases ot "Gnppe" have lately been
cured by One Minute Cough Cure. This prep
aration seems especially adapted to the cure
of this disease. It acts quickly thus prevent
ing serious complications and bad effects in
which this disease often leaves the patient.
A. McMillen.
The efforts of Annin to cause
dissension in the Republican dele
gation ac Washington should be
distinctly discouraged. As United
States Senator John M. Thurston
has well defined and hitherto clear
ly recognized prerogatives , and
those who know him best know
that he has the courage and good
sense to discharge all the duties
and privileges of his high and hon
orable position. Annin's crusade
is not only senseless but against
good party policy. These are times
when the ranks should be closed
up and not disorganized , especially
by internecine warfare.

closed on last Friday a week. A (

a varied program by the pupils '
were enjoyed by quite a few of the
patrons and friends of the sur
rounding community.
Owing to the very changeble {
condition of the weather but little (
if any spring work has so far been
done. Horses are in fairly good
condition and when the weather
permits everyone will be busy
with the usual routine of work at
{
this time of the year.
A certain lad of the neighbor
hood who some time ago made ar
rangements to furnish a house

Early in the week the ice in the '
pond was nearly thick enough for

warm shower on Tuesday that has I
been followed by agreeable weather - ,
er which seems to be a token of [
coming spring. I
William Pate has put up the a
sixth windmill during the time he 1
has lived here. The others have !
been destroyed by the wind. Five i
years ago we had an April fool {
joke played on us , as the mill went 1
down on the first of that month , I
and it proved to be a big and ex- \
pensive joke , too.
The revival meetings at Box El
der are still continuing and increas
ing in interest and converts. When
we stop to think how fast the years
are rolling by very few of us are
satisfied with the way we have liv
ed. Few have made the moral re
forms they meant to make and still
fewer have done the best they
could or knew. It is hoped that ! |
those who have taken this import
ant step in life and when they have
fairly entered upon a new career
will really turn over a new leaf.
It is surprising what a "wee bit of a thing"
