CHINCH BUGS.
A number of corn fields in the
county are showing1 signs of firing
much to the surprise of their
owners. George 'Peck , of Ohio
precinct made an investigation
last week to discover why one
portion of his field was fired and
another was not. In every in
stance he found that the tired
portion was blighted by chinch
bugs which were present in large
numbers. It would be a gooi
idea for the farmers whose fields
show evidence of firing to make
a live investigation , especially in
those fields that were former ! )
in small grain.
Our job department has prinlei
112 pages of brief in three weeks
and has more than 100 pages stil
ou the hook
. The Tribune did its utmost to
have Russia and Japan agre
upon peace terms last week , bu
our efforts were unavailing
A Falls City maiden who wear
one of these ' 'For God's sake
Mary sing" faces , returned fron
a three weeks visit one day las
week , and has been busy eve
since relating how many heart
she crushed during her absence
George Abbott in his Verde
speech advocated a limit of $100 ,
000 , upon a persons possesses
sions , all over that to escheat to
the state. J. H. Miles , E. S
Towle and Jas. Slocum don'
agree with Mr. Abbott. San
Mower advocates a limit of $10 ,
000. George Abbott doesn't agre
with Mr. Mower. We all wan
the limit placed high enough tha
it may not interfere with us.
KEEPING THEM OUT
One of Kails City's best citizens
aid to a friend of the writer last
vcek , "I am afraid The Tribune's
igitation of the telephone ques-
ion will keep the farmers out of
own. "
The good citizen was perfectly
toncst in his criticism , and was
( linking only of the best interest
of the town when he gave utter
ance to the above opinion. How
ever , he isn't conversant with
he facts as they exist. The
Tribune will keep no one out of
his city ; they are already out
iml we want them back in.
Ask Will Grush , Mr. Duncan ,
Will Goetz , A. Randolph and
he many other patrons of the
rural telephone companies why it
s that they have shunned Falls
City for the past two years.
Take a directory of these com-
> anics and see how many men
who were formerly customers of
his town , who are now doing !
heir trading elsewhere. No. no ,
ve are not keeping them out ;
he } ' were out before The Tribune
lad an existence. We can get
hem back in very easily by fair )
reatmcnt. |
It isn't pleasant for this paper
o occupy the position of oppos-
ng a local institution , especially
vhen it is composed of some of
he best friends we have. The
greatest good to the greatest
lumber is a safe and just position ,
ml such is the position of The
.Vibune.
If a rural telephone subscriber
esircs to call a physician , he
an call one from Rule and Pres-
on from his own home. If he
wants a Falls City doctor he
mist ride or send for him.
If he desires the market report ,
le can secure it , but not from
"alls City. His corn , wheat or
tock will in all probability be
old to the grain buyer who gives
lim the market. Consequently
le takes his product to Rulogets
i check on the Rule bank , cashes
t and makes his deposit there.
Buys his dry goods and groceries
f the Rule store , and all because
e has telephone connections
vith that city.
This paper has called the sittt-
ition to the attention of the city
ouncil several times and asked
hat the ordinance which keeps
hese farmers out be repealed.
We have failed to secure even a
Kissing notice at the hands of the
gentlemen who compose that
body.
body.We
We have laid the facts as we
know them to exist before the
Merchants , nearly all of whom
ire anxious for the repeal of the | [
ordinance-
These merchants can force the
repeal of this ordinance if they
believe it is of sufficient interest
to make the effort.
So far as the welfare of this
paper is concerned it makes no
difference whether the ordinance
is repealed or not.
To the city however , it makes
a great difference.
In the languageof Boss Tweed ,
" \ \ hat are you going to do about
it. "
The school mantis. God love
them , have departed , leaving us
desolate indeed. Institute week
may b > an event in their year , it
certainly is an event to this city
which always embraces them
with wide spread arms , literally
speaking. If there is any pro
fession which should be well re
munerated for the labor per
formed , it is the profession of
teaching. The salary paid to the
American teacher is a disgrace.
We intrust these young men and
women with the most sacred duty
we have , the preparation of our
children for the labors of life.
We pay them about the same
wc-gesthat we pay a stable boy
for grooming our horses. George
Watkins was right when he said ,
"il wecannotlincrease your salary
we ought at least to make it run
twelve months instead of nine. "
The peace envoys complain
about the hotel accommodations
at Portsmouth. They might
try tipping the waiters.
