BAH. LAMB.

Possibly when Lamb of Kirwin, ceases
to rant exclusively, and begins to reason
some, he will find less occasion to storm
at things he does not understand. His
acting the imp of hades because we assert
that we are not of the Van Wyck stripe of
Republicans is case in point. He does
not stop to enquire why we are not that
kind of Republican. He just assumes
that the reason is because of our admira-
ton of corporations and our hatred of
anti-monopolists.
Lambs facility for misunderstanding
reminds us of the inamarato who
fastened to his best girl with the news
that his resignation as an employe of the
street railway was in the hands of the
company; that he had fallen heir to seven
hundred thousand dollars, and asked her
to name the happy day, intimating that
it could not be placed too early. In re-
ply, she answered him-her dearest, of
course-that it was not necessary tc be
in rush, because six months time would
be required to get his feet warmed
through. 1t looks like it would require
at least this long for Lambs head to get
cleared for the reception of clear-cut
thought.
AS far as Vanwyck's anti-monopoly
views are such as, being realized, would
conduce to the welfare of the people, we
approve of them. Our objections to Van
Wyck's RepubGcanism is that he, like
John A. Anderson, is Republican for
Office, and, beyond that, a Van Wyck
man. II Van Wyck and Anderson have
progressed so far as to lose track of the
welfare of everybody but anti-monopo-
lists, let them go to those people for their
elevation to Office. This is fair, Lamb,
and you know it, if you know any thing.
When you throw out your rotten gibber-
ish at us, Lamb, about our fancy for cor
porations. you would, were you capable,
insult a man whose life is one of
arduous labor-one who has never come
nearer to manifesting fealty to corpora
tions than you do, every time you push
that railroad pass of yours at con-
ductor!

It is our aim to secure
Between this and Jan. I, 1887,
A settlement with every one who is In
debted at the World Office on subscrip-
ton.
Those who recognize the relation are
requested earnestly to lose no time in call
ing on us or writing to ascertain the
amount of Indebtedness, and investiga-
ting our clubbing offers for the coming
year. Those who shall not have attended
to this by the first of December WILL
Pc SENT A STATEMENT OF AC-
COUNT.
Our readers are prosperous. We are
in urgent need of money. We wish to
make all these collections without the
employment of a professional collector.
The settlements can thus be- made with
mutual pleasure and profit to all con-
cerned.

Destroyed by Fire.

Monday evening, Is inst, the house of
NJ 81. johnson, in Glencoe township, in
this county, was destroyed by fire. It
was combination of dugout and frame
house. Including books, clothing and
other property inside the building, Mr..
W. F. Cross informs us that the loss was
about $500. The property was insured
in the Niagara Company for $500 or $780,
Mr.. johnson is unmarried. He is un.
able to account for the origin Of the fire.
He had built no fire in the house since
the morning before the fire. At noon on
that Monday he took cold dinner, and
did not suppose there was any fire in the
house. In the evening, we believe he
took supper at the house of neighbor,
and then went home, hitched horse to
his buggy, drove into Ellis, about five
miles northeast, and. on returning, saw
his house SO far advanced in being burnt
down as to render him unable to save
anything from within its walls.

like he will be proof against a coal famine

THANKSGIVING DAY TOPICS.

Quiet prevailed.
The post-offce was closed portion Of
the day.
Some OF the merchants did not keep
their stores open full time.
The public schools were in vacation
during the day, but were again in session
the next day.
Owing perhaps to the Baptist festival,
private dinners and "open houses were
less numerous than they usually are here
on Thanksgiving days.
The q. 8. land Office force rested as
much as possible under the strain of be-
ing compelled to attend to some business
which had been-whether intentionally
or not, our reporter did not learn-set for
this day.
THE BAPTIST FESTIVAL.
The dinner given by the Baptists in
Opera Hall lasted about two hours, and
was we'll patronized. The supper lasted
about two hours, and was patronized
even more literally than the dinner. The
total receipts were $4,000. The net profit
was the handsome sum of $74.0O. Quite
an attendance from Happy Hollow,
Ogallah and other points was noticeable.
THEY GIVE THANKS.
Feeling highly gratified by the gene
rous patronage extended to us yesterday,
we desire to express our thanks to those
who favored us with their presence; and
we feel that especial thanks are due the
friends who SO kindly and cheerfully as
sisted us at the hail.
