A National Event.

Tic holding of the Worlds Fair in a
city scarcely fifty years old will be re-
,narkable event, but whether it will real
ly benefit this nation as much as the dis
covery of the Restorative Nervine by DR..
franklin Miles is doubtful. This is just
what the American people need to cure
their excessive nervousness, dyspepsia,
headache; dizziness, sleeplessness, neu'
ralgia, nervous debility, dullness, confu'
sion of mind, etc. 1t acts like charm.

l wish to call your attention to the
publication in one OF the parish papers
of two letters, the substance of both Of
which was previously placed before
this club. The fate of these commu-
nlca,ions might have been left With us
had not the writers seen tit to place
them before tho world, and in their
Puritanical predictions sought the
sympathy of the disaHected Of our
State. 1t has been thought by some
that reply should he made from this

taken upon myself the task of reply

We expect to convince either of the
error of their course, but to show to
the world that we do not fear them or
their followers. Democracy needs no
defence at our hands, but when geutle-
men cast aspersions upon certain neigh
burs who are known to be true and
tried Democrats, it is high time that
we take some notice of these things.
One of the writers insinuates that your
club was organized in the interest Of
a certain candidate, Or the negro, l
can't tell which. In either case, how
ever, We shall spew it up and cast it

THE TRUE STATUS.

The Natl0Dai LcOnOtniet, pun
lisbed at Washington, and the organ
in chief of the National Alliance, in
review of the political situation in
Louisiana has the following to say oi
the Alliance and anti.lotteryites OF
our State which we consider author
itative
"The membership in Louisiana,
generally, seem to constrne the CON-
pact to mean that they are bound t"
the Democratic party on strictly
Democratic platform only 80 far ~

of the State are concerned, aud that
they eau lay aside their Democratic
harness and apply the Alliance yard
stick in the shape of the Ocala de-

seems to he conceded by the Anti
Lottery League, with which the com
pact was made, hut it is violently
comhatted by what seems to be the
b ,lance and the controlling Influence
of the Democratic party of tue State >
The above clearly and surcinctl,,

CLOSING EXERCISES.

The closing exercises Of the public
schools held in the Lutheran church,
last Friday evening, formed one of the
brightest and most interesting enter
tainments of that character ever given
in this city. Long before the opening,
standing room on the lower steps was
at a premium, and many failed to gain
admittance. The program was render
ed in a meritorious manner throughout,
commencing with opening exercises by
the school. Little Edwin Cochran re-
cited "The Little Claim Holders" very
pleasingly. "Mamma's Help" was given
in an acceptable manner by Amy Cries.
well. "The Rescue was rendered by
Master Walter Shaw with his usual ef-
fectiveness. The wand drill by eight
little girls was one of the prettiest feat
ures of the program. Bertha Boyle
has an established reputation, and her
recitation Of "The Relief OF Lucknow"
was up to her usual standard of excel.
lence. Eva Reizenstein exhibited con-
siderable talent IN her violin solo,
turkish March," Roy Smith strength
ened his popularity by rendering the
"Cause of Education" with most comical
effect. A very cute thing was the trio
by Jessie Huddleston, ALA and Vida
Hagar, in costume. Frank Golfers
recitation of "The Painted Baby" elicit
ed the most enthusiastic applause, and
it was all deserved. A duet by Belle
and Lille spry was we'll received.
Mamie Chaplin has a graceful, pretty
way of saying things, and her recitation
Of "The Merrythought" was of that
order. The concert recltations and
choruses by the school were all given
in a sprightly, satisfactory style. Mrs.
f. G. Nettleton, county superintendent,
and Prof. Vim. Valentine, city superin-
tendent, closed the exercises with short
addresses, full of interest and excel

we have of irrigation and the water sup

Red Willow which affords an abundant
supply of water has been damned just
below the railroad crossing, and a flood
ditch has been constructed which car

to 90 over the dam. The main ditch is
cut for about a mile and a half and the
work is moving along steadily. Anum-

different points along the channel for
storing water and in ease the Willow
cannot supply the demand MIR. Holland
has a plan for tapping the underAow,

4 GREAT DAY.

That Decoration Day holds an exalted
place in the hearts of the people is an
nually attested by the unanimous way
they lay aside for the nonce their sew
eral business and professional affairs,
and turn out Ell masse to decorate the
veterans graves with choicest flowers,
and to engage in appropriate exercises
in their sacred memory. Last Saturday
was no exception to the rule,-on the
contrary the exercises were of unusual
interest ami the outpouring of people
more general.
The exercises at the opera hall con-
sisted of patriotic music by the band,
singing Of appropriate songs by the
school children, prayer by Post Chap
lain Berry, reading of orders by Adju-
tant Wilcox, and closing with an elo-
quent Grafton BETTING the occasion by
Rev. p. S. Mather. The hall was not
adequate to the concourse of people.
The parade then formed and the COL
umn proceeded to Longvlew cemetery
in the following order: McCook Band;
Sons of Veterans; a white pony bearing
floral offerings on a handsome black
velvet robe in which the letters &c. A.
R." had been worked in gold; thirteen
boys mounted on ponies to represent
the original states; Goddess of Liberty
and children representing all the states;
j. K. Barnes Post, veterans, and W. r.
c., in carriages; fire department.; citi-
zens in carriages etc. The procession
vas perhaps the longest ever seen in
McCook. At the cemetery the exer-
cises were impressive. There we're rec
itations,. vocal and instrumental music,
the graves of the departed heroes we're
lavishly bedecked with flowers, a grand
salute was fred by the Sons of Veter-
ans, and after a short address by Com
mander Welles they disbanded.
The weather was propitious; the at
tendance large; the exercises replete
with patriotism and interest; and withal
it was a highly creditable celebration
of a grand day.

The buffalos arrived in McCook, last
Friday evening, and are quietly grazing
on school section Is, about two miles
northeast of the city, which Mr.. Hook
nell has offered for their pasturage and
which has been fenced for their accom-
mediation. They number about 80 head,
and comprise the largest herd on earth.
The early days of the week the herd
grazed we the vacant land adjoining
the city on the north and scores of peo-
pie took advantage of the opportuni-
ty to inspect the 80 or DO thousand
dollars worth of bison in the Buffalo
Jones herd. No doubt section 16 will
be the objective noint of many a pill
grimage from citizens and visitors, this
summer, to see the noble animal that
once held undisputed possession of this
entire section of country.

There is a vacant chair and sadness
in the home of Mr.. and Mrs. j. H.
Ludwick. On Sunday morning, death
came to the relief of their daughter
Bernice, who had been a terrible suf-
terer for a number of days from a NAL
ady, the sequence of an attack of scar
let fever, which has bafled the physi-
clans and caused the little sufferer ex-
cruciating pain. Little Bernice would
have completed her fourth year in a
few days. The funeral occurred on
Monday afternoon. All hearts sympa-
thize with the bereaved parents in the
sorrow which has come into their lives.
