"a GOOD many people have been
laughing in their sleeves at the in
dependent members being obliged
to stay here after the limit of their
compensation expires" Represen-
tative Ruggles remarked yesterday,
''but the laugh is a little prema-
ture. The alliance out in my coun-
ty has made up purse Of $50 to
pay me my per diem, and I am
going along just the same as ever
with instructions to stay as long as
there is any necessity for me
here 1t is probable that other
alliances have taken like steps, SO
that their representatives can ''stay

blows.-Journal, April LIST.

The Keith County News makes
the direct charge against Repre-
sentative Purnell, author Of the IL
rigation bill, that he purposely
permitted its defeat in the inter
est of a ''ditch'' company at North
Platte, after pledgiDg the people
Of Ogalalla that he would notify
them if the bill was in danger.
The inference is that he was
bought off from the support Of his
own bill, and the News makes a
pretty strong case against him
The indications have been strong
that the bill was being ''monkeyed''
with; there is now no doubt Of it;
and if it is true that Purnell be-
trayed the trust reposed in him by
western Nebraska he is just as
odious a traitor as the absconding
Senator Taylor.

NOTICE TO TEACHERS.

There is to be instruction given
in Botany at our coming summer
Institute, and in order that our
teachers and students may be pre-
pared to profit thereby, I would
suggest that you begin the work
by gathering the different varieties
of leaves as they develop,and when
practicable the stem and blossom
as we'll as the leaves of trees.
Those of you who have access to
the North Western School Journal
will find in the March number
Chancellor Bessey's directions for
pressing plants. I have attained
very good results by pressing the
plants in several thicknesses of
newspaper. that being always con-
venient. Usea weight heavy enough
to keep the plants unwrinkled while
drying. Press and preserve spec
linens of the different flowers as
they appear. Let the specimens
be as complete as possible, i. g., the
root, stem, leaves, flowers and fruit.
Bring your prepared specimens to
the Institute and from them we
will derive our lessons. These les
sons are not only preliminary to
the study of the book, but of special
assistance in its study, giving us
the ching before the word"
Do not let the painstaking care
required deter you from the under
taking. I feel like promising you
not only an enthusiastic interest in
Botany, but a self-development
that will aid you materially in
other studies and labors.
Beginning with the first Satur-
day in May I will be at tie brick
school house in McCook every Sat-
urday, Except the third Of the
month, and shall be ready to see
directors on school business or
teachers in regard to their studies.

The McCook tribune., 1891-04-03

The charges of bribery in the
election of United States Senators
have of late years come to be mat
ters of such frequent occurrence
that they have ceased to excite
surprise, aud, humiliating as the
admission may seem, these scand-
ais no longer appear to shock the
moral sense of the people. It is
now a recognized law Of politics
that the longest pole knocks the
persimmon," and the protest
against this corrupt rule has, un-
happily, become enfeebled with
its continued practice. In these
latter times the attainment of which
was a distinguished honor in the
days of Webster and Clay depends
upon the financial ability of the as
pirant to purchase a seat in the
Senate. The presence in that body
of the millionaires who constitute
the bulk Of its accessions during
the last twenty years indicates the
venal level to which the highest
Legislative body in the land has de-
scended. The personnel Of the
United States Senate to-day furn-
ishes ample justification of the
alarm which is beginning to pos
sess the people and which is awak-
ening sentiment in favor of elect
ing the members of the upper
house of congress by popular vote.
The late Senatorial scandal at Sac
ramento is only one of the many
incidents of a like character in 9TH
er states which show the urgent
necessity for a thorough purifca-
ton of American politics, and
which reveal, alas, the long step
downward which the country has
taken since the days Of the fathers
of the Republic, when integrity,
competency, and pure and undefil-
ed patriotism constituted the quail
ifications for public service.
