: hat make the circuit are he
ind as good races can be expected

There was a ripple of excitement
the streets in front of Quigley a

ivening when one of our citiv.ens tri
: o use another for a paint brus
Uity marshall Hilsinger put a stop
vorking on that line not wholly in ;
: ordance with schedule rates a
rules and the mixing was deferred n
til Friday morning when with a roi
n the hand , of one , the other didr
stop to debate the question. \
heard that if it were not for the t
man trying to take advantage , th
the little man could do him up.
The races at the Lone Tree Ranc
were not as well attended as the
would have been had the weathe
been more favorable jnst previous t
the races though they wcie as adver
tised. We would like to give the pai
tJculars more complete and if the ;
arrive in time for this issue you wil
tind them in another column.
The famous General Gage who sign
ed the-Sulu treaty was here a littl
over a week ago inspecting the Pos
at Ft. Niobrara. He expressed him
self as being very much pleased wit ]
the appearance in general and was o
the opinion that the fort would bi
more extensively used in the future
the conditions being more favorabli
than he had expected from What .hi
had previously learned.
The editor got aboard the cars a
this place last Frida } ' morning an <
went down the road to vtst our ueieh
bore "Longpirie reached , and / me
the always smiling county attorn
2y editor of the Longpine Journal
Luke Bates with whom we chattet
For a few moments. Then on to Bas
sett where Robt. Good's Eagle soar
) ut once each week spreading thf
lews to the people of Rock county
Bob.was at the depot and took im
Mediate charge , escorting his success
) r on the VAL.ENTIXE DEMOCRAT u
the Eagle's perch where we were en
tertained for a while and then madt
i tour of the town. The banker , Mr ,
Srayton. we found to be a .pleasant ,
Denial and good hearted man who ha *
jeen doing business there for severai
fears. Mr. . Smith , the sheriff , was a
Necessary acquaintance which we
nade as soon as possible. Bob sug
rested going down to .Nexvport where
; here was a meeting of.the A. O. U
IV. so we put in the time pretty well
risking several prominent business
nen. Mr. Mead of the Bassett Lead
er .was at home and has a pleasant
) ! ace to dp business. W. T. Phillips ,
former editor of the Eagle , was al
: he Eagle's perch , an elderly gentle
nan. Miss Delgetta and Gillett , for
nerly of Valentine are each conduci
ng millinery stores at Bassett. Fin
illy Bob's credit being good we , tr.ied
'liven" good with a square m'eal at
: he 'popular hotel. Mr. Stockwell ,
.he.druggist , formerly clerk forAl-
Yed Lewis at this place is doing well
ind has a nice neat drug store. The
rounty clerk , Mr. Hllberg was a
: chool mate of D. E Sherman's bach
: ast and they haven't met in 20 3'ears
: lu > ugh living almost within a stones
.brow ol each othet. We found the
Jo.Treas. andJudire to be agreeable
rentlemen. At Newport we steered
or the oflice of editor Wiltse whom
re found husil3 * engaged running oil
lis papers with the assistance ofJay
lawk Johnson : there was a nice ilnll
it the pavillion of the A.'O. U. W. j >
(5 ladies in white robes assited bv 1:1
oung men in which they were heart-
ly applauded as the abbreviation's of
he orderwere represented in their
Irill. Train was late so after a nice
isit with 13ro. Wiltseve were invit-
: d to dine at the editor's expense.
3ack"up to Ainsworth where we found
he immortal Ueinert and hisassisant
3urleigh of the Star-Journal who
ladn't done jubilating over Reinert
ind Whittecre's walk out of the Fus-
on convention. Robert .llartin , an
ild timer and faithful to the end was
here and accuses Reinert oE writing
he article to the State Journal , in
rhich so much was claimed by the
mtef'as to deceive the middle of the
oaders themselves. Reiuert will ac-
.ept a position at any land oHice
ilong the line it is rumored provided
here's nothing bigger in sight. Bro.
liles was busily engaged getting out
ome programs and course of study
or their county superintendent , Miss
Daniels whom we had the pleasure of
neeting. Miss D. is a candidate for
e-election we learned and we judge
rom what we hear that the people of
3rown county are well pleased with
ler efilcient work and will cast their
) allots for a deserving person. Mrs ,
ililc.a' father and mother being awaj
m a visit she was in charge of their
estaurant where we again got our
: eet under the table loaded with the
roqd things to eat that editors ancJ
winters so much appreciate. Miss
Sowers is a valuable assistant in
3ro. Miles office and makes her home
vith the family. All of the editors ,
> rinters and other people seemed tc
) e cheerful andwecanbetter * under-
tand now , how a printer may be in
luced to go on the bum. The trii :
ias impressed us that at some future
.irnc we may be again with the gooci
learted boys along the Hue.
