Some day Valentine merchants will
wake to the fact that a good road to
the Table is a necessity to their wel
fare , also that a good road to Sparks
and Norden will add hundreds of
dollars annually to their profits.
Cherrj7 county was awarded the
silver medal and diploma at the
Trans-Mississippi Exposition for ex-
iiibit of educational work , and Supt.
Morgareidge has had the diploma
neatly framed. This is a great com-
plime'nt to the schools of this western
frontier county , and should be an in
centive to every teacher and student
in the county to do still better work
in the future
The editor is in receipt of an invi
tation to attend the Sth annual ban
quet of the Jacksonian Club at Omaha
on the evening of January 7. and put
his nether extremities under the ma
hogany with the Hon. Adlai Steven
son. Gov. Altgeld , and other distin
guished democrats , but since none of
these gentlemen are subscribers to
this great journal , and Omaha is 300
miles awar " , and it will cost $3.50 to
get a plate"at the feast , and he don't
happen to have a pass over the rail
road , the editor has concluded that
(
his simple democratic tastes will not
allow him to be present. These
blowouts savor too much of the aris
tocratic to suit this paper and we be
lieve the six or eight thousand dollars
which will of necessitj- spent by
those who attend this banquet could
be used to much greater advantage
to benefit the democratic party.

Through an oversight this paper
some time ago failed to give credit tea
a few items taken from the Whitman
Sun , and despite the fact that \ve
wrote the editor a nice letter of
apology upon discovering our mistake
he and hi6 Pullman correspondent are
almost crazy over our "plagiarism. ' '
As the articles were almost senseless
without the ci edit mark , it seems to
us that they should use ordinar\-
judgment in" the matter and save
their ravings for some real plagiarist
