McCOOK RED WILLOW COUNTY NEBRASKA THURSDAY EVENING JULY 28 1910
Wright Wrong- Again
Fred Wright the young man who
was convicted in district court over
a year since for numerous forgeries
is again wanted by several McCook
merchants not for forgery this time
but for obtaining goods under false
representations
Wrights first offense consisted in
a number of forgeries of checks in this
city For this he was convicted and
one of the several counts was sent
to the penitentiary at Lincoln for five
years Five other counts were for a
while held against him but were at
a recent term of court taken off the
docket and quashed
Wrights latest offense is receiving
goods under false pretenses Issuing
his own personal checks and in most
instances receiving small balances in
cash in payment of bills owing by
him to local merchants We are ad
vised that some ten or fifteen indivi
uals in the city are losers in various
amounts none of them fortunately
in considerable sums
After Wright had served about a
year under his five year sentence
he was on petition of friends in this
city released by Governor Shallen
berger on parole
Last Saturday he failed to report
to his sponsors disappearing from the
city and presumably is still at large
Shortly after his disappearance
became known that several McCook
merchants held his personal checks
in various small amounts and that
no money was to his account in th
bank
Wright had receievd some money
from England during this summer
and the fact that he was a liberal
buyer and paid for his goods gave
him a credit among those he dealt
with
This last act places Wright among
those who would rather be a crook
than not a fact The Tribune regrets
the more on account of those who
have done heroic work to give him an
opportunity to make good

The End In Sight
Tho health officers of tho city have
every reason to boliovo that tho end of
the scarlet fovor opidemic is in sight
It has boon a strenuous period and the
tho oxtremo warm weather has made
tho task doubly difficult With a few
notable exceptions tho citizens have
responded to ovory order of the authori
ties and for their cooperation in this
respect tho officers aro deoply grateful
Very fow now cases have developed this
week and quarantines aro being raissd
daily
The one proposition which has up to
this time baflled those in charge of tho
situation was tho source of the infec
tion Limited as the infected territory
has been to tho residonce portion of tho
city proper tho authorities felt that tho
search for the source of infoction was
the all important problem bofore thorn
Tho water supply was suspocted and
invesigatedthe sower system was thor
oughly cleansed tho streets and alleys
wero cleaned as never before and the
source of infection remained undiscov
eredJ
It is however confidently believed
that the real trouble at least tho prob
ablo source of the later infections was
discovered on Tuesday afternoon by the
cit s health officers when they made
a personal inspection of the Carter dai
ry located several miles east of the city
and found a member of the Carter fam
ily a young man who assists with tho
milking infected with scarlet fever and
in the desqumating stage of the disease
The authorities at once took charge of
the matter and will see to it that no
milk from tho Carter dairy or from cows
now thereon is imported nto the city
until the entire plant has been thor
oughly disinfected and cleansed It is
possible that recent exposures have oc
curred from this source All such caes
should develop within the next ten
days but uutil this period has olapsed
the matter is in doubt It is important
therefor that all cases of sickness be
promptly reported to the health officers
in order that proper inspections may be
made If the citizens will continue to
cooperate with the health officers it is
confidently believed that tho end of the
epidemic is near The health officers
can direct and advise but results can
be accomplished only by and throjgh
the unselfish and hearty cooKjration of
the people themselves

Work Progresses on Catholic Church

definite has been given out as to the
