publican bosses couldnt stand llice in the treasurers office and he had to go Perhaps the country people will have something to say in the future If Miss lirown has any influence with republicau politicians she will do her self a favor by using it to prevent the insane attacks being made upon her opponent W F Morgareidge Do not censure prosecuting attorney Walcott for allowing the county to get beaten in the Slavin case Clarke had it all his own way of course since he worked up the trouble for his client We havent a thing against Miss Brown but we must remark that a stranger will of necessity have to judge her by the company she keeps Once again we remark that We are sorry for her Some of the boys at Cody say that Tom Kelley electioneers half breeds squawmen and Rosebud residents with as much energy as he does a Cherry county citizen Tom is a hustler but instead of getting into deep water he had better pull for the Shore A M Morrissey has been a resident of Nebraska for eight yeais and no man can say that during that time he has not been a sober earnest and up right man and a perfect gentleman Can anyone say as much for his oppo nent in the race for count attorney The war revenue is still on but they celebrated with great pomp the declara tion of peace both at Omaha and Chi cago and the president of this great country was the central figure at each place The Dingly bill must be upheld even if a stamp must be placed on the workingmans dinner pail every time he uses it Germany has for a long time opposed the importation of American meats into her domain and republican papers roundly denounce Germanys exclu sion laws How they can consistently do so when the bill places a prohibitive tariff upon German pro ducts is a mystery which an honest consistent or thinking man cannot solve John Shore demo pop candidate for representative has been a resident of Nebraska and Cherry county for a good many years and needs no introduction to the old settlers and stockmen of this county By reason of his long resi dence here he understands the needs of the people of this part of the state and he lias the courage and honesty to stand up for his convictions Many stockmen who are not populists or democrats are supuorting as thoy say Honest John Shore Keya Paha Call Last weeks Republican contained a half column article roasting the fusion candidate and next county superinten dent W F Morgareidge The article was well timed It was well known that Morgareidge was going into the country early Saturday morning to re main a week or two The Republican is usually in the post office on Friday but on this occasion it was not mailed until Saturdav forenoon after Morgar eidge had left town We do not know the circumstances except from the Re publicans point of view and if it is no nearer correct on this than on the Slavin case we will unhesitatingly de ny the story As it is we can make no reply because no one but Morgareidge can give the information we wish Even if the diarge made is true it proves neither that Morgareidge is a rascal nor a blockhead We remember distinctly a time when four attorneys a canvassing board Bro Barker the writer and scores of others did not know that a body of voters could not be disfranchised on account of the ig norance or negligence of any one man or set of men And vet ro Barker would not accuse Ed Clarke nor hiin self of being ignoramuses Butterine butterine butterine How sick bur xepublican friends are of the silly story about butterine which they sprung on the pops The records dis close the fact that from August 189 i to March 1895 the republicans fed the old soldiers the men who saved the union and the men oi whom the repub licans have made tools ever since 2400 pounds of what the g o p now calls wagon dope 350 pounds per month And they fed the unfortunate boys who were in the reform school in 94 about 7500 pounds of the dope the made the poor blind jeoplc at Nebraska City eat 3558 pounds of the stuff and the insane at Norfolk were stuffed with 3448 pounds ot the grease Ye gods and little fishes what a boomerang that story was P S Chadron Journal please copy A vote for Shore and Mulz is a vote for Senator Allen Dont forget that The Xext County Superin tendent Wayne Neb October 15 98 To Whom it May Concern Mr W F Morgareidge was a student in the Nebraska Normal College for a full year of fifty weeks and completed the Professional Teachers Course As a studsnt he was industrious apt ener getic and thorough and stood at the head of the graduating class lie did some substitute teaching un der my observation and in this line his work was as satisfactory as it was as a student Ilis daily work and all his examina tions were of high grade Ilis standing was such that he was elected president of his class which is an honor only be stowed upon the leaders of classes He was admired by faculty students and citizens for his manliness on all occa sions as well as his ability lie went away from here with the entire confi dence of all who knew him Very truly J M Pile President L B Doud and the other officers of the National Live Stock Bank and of the Chicago Cattle Loan Company say there has been more money put out to cattle feeders in the last four weeks than ever before at this season or dur ing a similar period They think that the indications for the usual amount of stock feeding are fairly good Six weeks ago it looked as if there would be a considerable shortage Some of the fed Avestern range cattle are bringing remarkably good prices but iii every such instance they are good stock and have had the very best care and feed The other day a car load of sixteen South Dakota dehorned range steers that had been fed in Iowa were sold on the Chicago market for S5G5 per hundred pounds They were all branded and were Hereford white faces- National Stockman From advance sheets of the four teenth annual report of the Bureau of Animal Industry we learn that inspec tion of meat for inter state commerce was instituted in 1891 and now there are 128 abattoirs ill 33 cities where the bureau inspects all meat slaughtered The number of live animals inspected in 1897 was as follows Cattle 8250 025 sheep 8044355 calves 448983 hogs 25565741 total 42310107 Of these the following numbers were re jected Cattle 25146 sheep 11260 calves 2653 hogs 53145 total con demned 92304 While this is a little more than two tenths of one per cent it is unpleasant to contemplate eating even that much diseased meat In addition to the above figures there were post mortem inspections of 26580 689 animals and 46265 part of car casses were condemned Besides there were killed by city inspectors 641 cattle 1527 sheep 40 calves and 2081 hogs that had been rejected in the stock yards by officers of the Bureau The National Live Stock Association Bulletin gives the following interesting items In the mountain ranges the cattle have found good feed in the high pas tures where tinber is plentiful but some sections report a scarcity of hay and will market their cattle when fin ished rather than carry them through the winter The greatly discussed shortage of range cattle has manifested itself be yond doubt principally in the north ern and western sections where ship ments will show a falling off from last years record of from 10 to 15 per cent The heaviest decrease is in aged cattle three years old and over of which class there is an actual famine in some sec tions Young cattle are also not as plentiful in the range sections as last year but the territory covered by Kan sas Nebraska and South Dakota report a large increase hardly enough how ever to make up for the decrease in the west and north The percentage of range cattle that will go for feeders this year is consider ably less than usual owing to the good feed that has prevailed on the rnge and the strong demand for beef cattle In Arizona conditions have averaged rather better than usual and the cattle to be moved this fall will mostly go West to the coast the movement East being lighter then usual for the year New Mexico will have fewer cattle to send out then last year and the move ment will be late owing to the good condition of the ranges and the conse quent improvement in the cattle Texas will have fewer cattle to move than last fall but conditions are most favorable The crop of corn and cotton seed has been unusually large and efforts are being made to have a larger number of the cattle fed at home The movement of cattle from Mon tana Wyoming and Colorado promises to be the heaviest in October Ship ments from Idaho will be light but the cattle are in good condition The cattle coming from the Indian Territory aud Oklahoma are In good conditio i and the movement will be nearly if not quite as largo as last season It is expected that while the- number of cattle on dry feed for the winter will be lessthan last year the quality will average better another factor towards maintaining the good
