Fire at Hay Springs last week de stroyed a large livery stable , harness , buggies , saddles , etc. , and ten head of horses. A. Schatzthauer of Woodlake has one old style and one Omaha hay press , both in good condition , for sale on a year's time. Jack Cron n is driving 650 head of calves and 360 cows , all native stock and about half of them whitefaces , from the "C Bar" ranch to his place. We understand that Lord & Ben nett have purchased a large bunch of cows from Richards & Comstock , and - C. H. Cornell has also invested in 400 head. Everybody should vote for the best man , regardless of politics , but good partisans never have any trouble in finding that the best men are on their ticket. It seems to us that there is more mone3r in patent medicine locals at 50 cents per inch than there is in tax lists at 2 cents a line. And more justice and honor. A special train of 14 cars of cattle belonging to Messrs. Stetter , O'Brien and Spratt , left here Monday night for Omaha. Messrs. Neiss , Ludwig and Gillette went along to keep the otner boys straight. A week or two ago a man by the name of Olney struck this town , rep resenting himself as special agent for an insurance company. He neither advertised his company ) nor showed to anyone his credentials , but some of our good people were fooled into giv ing up some of their hard money for a worthless snide. Whitman Sun. Frank Reese was arrested yester day and brought before the county judge , charged with having commit ted statutory rape upon the person of 14-year old Anna Peterson , who lives on the river south of town. The pris oner asked to have the case contin ued thirty days , and in default of $3,000 bonds is now in the custody of the sheriff. At the republican caucus Monday evening J. M. Clarkson was nominat ed for assessor , Frank Sageser and Abijah Morey lor justices of the peace , Will Taylor and Frank Gokey for constables , George Camm and tiIf John Berman for road overseers. Ifc Messrs. Clarke , Yeast , Sherman , Tay lor , Towle , Walcott , Lewis , Tucker , t Hooton and Lawson were elected del of egates to the county convention. T The village board made a test of the Niagara water meter the other yiol yiq day and give us the following figures : olp 1 foot equals 7 * gallons ; without noz p zle an inch hose ran 1 foot of water in ti 1 minute and 58 seconds ; with cactus si sprinkler 1 minute 40 seconds ; with j vi nozzle 2 minutes 30 seconds. These meters can be established if bought of the board for $8.80. The price of ! . water is 15 cents per thousand.gallons di so with these figures consumers may ' ascertain about how much their city , c ( water will cost them. la If ever Bro. Bates of the Longpine ra " Journal applies for admission to the , E. V. E. A. we're going to blackball ti him , for the following reasons : He ni wears a collar two inches higher than ' Julian's or Efner's , he has a carpet ( ? ) . on his sanctum " floor , and works on w Sundays" , which charges will convict aj him of being unprofessional and prove s that his admission to the association pl will have a tendency to corrupt the h ( morals of the brethren ' ' ed P.

Our votei s will have the opportuni ty of voting this fall for a free silver Republican on the county ticket that being Mrs. Crawford's politics. It is this that gives rise to the report that the fusionists went outside their party for a catdidate. We desire to express our gratitude and appreciation of kind services ren- de ed us , and for the many expressions of sympathy during the sickness and death of our beloved wife and sister.

S' S'n S'i rt Valentine is one of the most subs n tantial towns of the northwest and we doubt it if any town west of Norfolk can show finer store rooms or larger and better stocks of goods. A In the fine large store room over the Republican office and owned by Mr. Barker , we met our younge friend W. F. Morgareidge , who has recently purchased a stock of merchandise an launched out a business'in Valen- { tine. He seems to be having a splen did trade there and we predict will do well there. We enjoyed our visit 0 in Ainsworth and Valentine , both , of which are good towns and are blest with live , progessive newspapers. Gordan Journal. Xotice to Non-Resident. Scott T.
