It will be pretty difficult to head off
Miss Quick
Jasper cheerfully acknowledges that
he has not yet fully recovered from his
residence in Missouri
Red Cloud is considering the propo
sition of city ownership in the matter of
the electric light plant The popular
trend i9 that way in the caso of many
public utilities and is eminently proper
if such properties are bought and se
cured at a just valuation
One fact has already been fixed to a
certainty as a result of the life insur
ance investigation in New York state
and that is that the old line companies
have been and are charging abnormal
outrageous and excessive premiums
And incidentally we might say that the
probabilities are that the fraternals and
inutuals are not charging enough for
solid and enduring results The old
liners ought to be brought down to a
point where the officers directors and
grafters generally dont have to become
thieves to get rid of the vast surplus
funds which roll in so fast they cannot
in honest methods dispose of it The
fraternals need to be notched up some
what and reasonable surplus funds es
tablished to make good with in emer
g ncy or old age
Existence of Wine Rooms
It is stated that wine rooms exist in
at least part of the saloons ot the city of
McCook contrary to licenses under
which they operate And the question
naturally arises why
Fined 25 With Costs Added
Ben Olcott Jr and Ray Lackey were

and disorderly and remanded to the
city bastile until the fines and costs are

Gentlemen of the Convention
I am not in any temper of mind at the present time or have the power

nominated for the office of justice of the supremo court That court
carries with it the power of life and death the disposition of the property
of any man in the state and it is the most responsible position that can
be tendered or given to any man in the state I appreciate the responsi
bility of this position
I want to say too that if olected which I expect to be I shall know
neither rich or poor neither corporation or individual and that so far as
in me lies 1 will dispense justice with even hand to every man within the
borders of the state
I am told that your committee on resolutijns will report to this con
vention declaring against the issuance of free transportation by the rail
roads in this state -I want to say to you that I am in hearty accord with
that declaration
Further I understand that they have endorsed our president and 1
stand firmly with them on that proposition
Further I understand they will report in favor of a direct primary

I wish to thank the convention for this nomination I want to thank
my friends who made the magnificent fight upon this convention floor for
me I thank you all gentlemen

Fireguards Wanted
It has been suggested to The Tribune
that adequate fireguards should be pro
vided by the authorities about the city
In view of the prairie fire of last fall
which came so near running into the
city during a gale it behooves the
authorities to give this matter attention
before the ground freezes The expense
would not be heavy and the sense of
security would be very valuable and de
sirable

Dr Bushnell Says Money Was Offered
An effort is being made to bring Dr
O Edward Bushnell of Paonia Delta
CDunty Col back to Gosper county
Neb there to support his wife The
physician is resisting extradition before
Governor McDonald of Colorado on
sensational assertions of fact
An attorney from Nebraska whose
name we do not at this moment know
said one of the attorneys engaged bj the
doctor according to Denver News re
ports approached the doctor and said
that for a consideration of 1500 to be
given his wife the caso would be dropped
When the doctor declined the offer the
price was reduced to 1000 and the doc
tor still refused
According to the dispatches an attor
ney of Lincoln who went through Pa
ouia some time ago saw Dr Bushnell
there and notified his wife Efforts were
then begun to bring him back to Ne
braska to answer the charge of wife de
sertion
The attorneys for the doctor say that
Bushnell left his wife on a mutual un
derstanding Since he has built up a
dractice at Paonia he has been sending
money home they say They were
given assurances from Governor Mc
Donald that if they could prove that any
Nebraska attorney had approached the
doctor for a c a s h settlement he would
not honor the requisition Lincoln Star
Zealous in Land-Grabbing-
Washington Oct 9 A novel scheme
of public land grabbing has come to
light in the McCook land district of Ne
braska An enterprising father of a
family having himself acquired title to
a piece of government land conceived an
original method of getting more of the
land for the family His scheme con
sisted in his having his older children
adopt his younger thus making them
heads of families and deligible to make
homestead entries An eieh teen-year-
old boy adopted his twelve-year-old
brother and the younger boy in turn
adopted his nine-year-old sister In
due course of time title of three pieces
of government land was held in the
family The discovery of this novel and
original scheme for homesteadine has
led the secretary of the interior to order
a general investigation of homestead
entries in Nebraska Kansas and Okla
homa It is expected that many cases
of this kind will be unearthed in Kan
sas and Nebraska State Journal-
