Perhaps it would be a good plan for
some of our people to insure against
fake insurance agents.
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.

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.
