THE Fremont Tribune gives it to
Covington, Neb., in this wise:
The little town of Covington OPP
posite Sioux City, has eighteen bus
mess houses. Sixteen of these are
saloons, one a coal yard and the 9TH
er q grocery. There is some excuse
for a grocery in that place but none
whatever for a coal yard. The town
is too near hell to need any coal.
f. c. Suffer, ESQ.,, a former resi-
dent of this city, but for the past
two years local editor of the Brook
ings Press, has recently purchased
an interest in that paper, and it is
now published by Hopp e. Suffer.

Justice oBrien's decision in the eth Regiment con-
test sayo great JOY to the active members Of the reg
mont yesterday, but II seems probable that notwith
standing their temporary setback, the veterans will
stil continue tho fight. They admit that Justice
o'Brien went over substantially tho same ground in
his decision refusing 10 continue the injunction that
had been secured IS will have 10 be gone over when
tho case comes TO actual trial. but they think that
with fuller hearing of the facts there win be DIFF
ierent result Thoy also express qualification with
Justice o'Brien's remarks TO the general effect thar
tho regiment Is bound IN honor, not in law, TO pro
vide quarters for the veterans Tho latter assert that
the agreement made at the tms whom funds were being
raised 20 build the armOry Is binding, and Richard L.
sveczy, one Of the attorneys for the organization,
said that the action would DO pushed until fnal dc
eislon was obtained fixing The rights Of tho veterans
Locke - Winchester, formerly colonel Of the veterans,
declined TO discuss tho matter yesterday, except to
say that he hoped tho trouble could DO smoothod over
General Henry L. Tremaln, the present colonel is
now In Chicago
Colonel Emmons Clark, speaking IN behalf OF the
active members Of the regiment, said there was no
occasion for any hard feelings, and he had no doubt
that tho would sun be permitted 10 use their
10 tho board OF officers. There arc, however, four
different veteran organizations OF the 7th Regiment OF
kind and another, and the idea that any OF them
could occupy rooms In the armory regardless OF the
wishes Of the regiment was simply prepOsterOus.
The case may come 10 trial In June.
