THE COURIER. r L OBSERVATIONS. 8 OC''"i Continued from Page 1. of his shoulder straps for six months and being deprived of them forever. There is a satisfaction in the knowl edge that no official whose place de pends on the consent of the people will dare, for many years to come, to grant Captain Loverirg any position outside of the strict military succes sion to commissions and homes. Men like Captain Lovering belong in the German army, where it is allowed to an officer to run a citizen or a private through with his sword if he feels himself insulted or his commands dis regarded. Such a man belongs in the army of tho half-urazy German, who prates of "divine right" and suppresses free speech in the papers and by in dividuals. MUalCAb.

".EiV l'''l I Firvds it Easy TO gather up handsome, useful and lasting presents from our stock of Clothing, Hats, and Furnishing Goods, for Men, Boys and Chi'dren. We wish to disabuse the minds of the good women of Lincoln regarding the matter of it being so hard to buy a present for a gentleman. There are the substantial gifts for father or brother in the way of suits, overcoats, ulsters, mackintoshes, hat and caps. There are all of those little things that go to make up the dainty part of a man's wardrobe, such as collars, cuffs, suspenders, handkerchiefs, neck-wear, gloves and mittens, bath robes, house coats, and the like, any one of which would be an ac ceptable present for father or brother as well as for Freddie, "who is only a friend" but who has been so thoughtful in the past that it would seem almost cruel not to rembember him. We show, this season, by far the best assorted stock of Furnishing Goods iu the state. Our stock of Hats and Caps is beautiful. Our cloth ing unexcelled. It will pay you, therefore, to call at our store when on your Xmas shopping expedition.
