KEEP your eye on the Parson

Wednesday evening of this week
Deputy Marshal Tomilson and
Deputy Collector Ballew arrested
g. W. Arbogast on Dry creek, six
miles north of BARLEY, and with
him secured a moonshining outfit,
still, worm a~ndsoforth, in q sod
house near the creek. Zane Teeter
was subsequently arrested, and on
yesterday morning the pair were
taken into Omaha to tell the Judge
all about it. That section of the
county is gaining quite a n%otoriety
in the illicit liquor business lately.

v. z. ANDREWS.

THE little giant from Hast
ings, Prof. Andrews, will undoubt-
eddy be the Republican nominee
again in the Fifth congressional
district, and there is little doubt
that he will be elected, no matter
whether McKeighan or some other
person will be pitted against him."
I-Kearney Hub.
The above is like a dash of
summer rain to the thirsty earth.
It comes from an honest heart
that dares to stand up and demand
the right thing to be done.
Everything pertaining to the
past proclaims that W. E. Andrews
is the logical nominee. The pres
emit only emphasizes the previous
conclusion, while intensifying the
demand by a rationale Of combined
facts that in clear and unmistaka-
BILE tones confirm the logic of
events that if needed will place
Prof. Andrews in the old position
he SO ably held, with honor to
himself and credit to his constitu-
ency. Coming events cast their
shadows BEFORE" and today the
general concensus Of opinion as
evidenced by an outspoken demand
of more than three-fourths of the
solid Republican electors in the
Fifth congressional district clearly
indicates that Prof. Andrews is
not only the choice of the people,
but that he is recognized as the
only legitimate standard bearer
that shall lead the unified Repub-
lican hosts to triumphant victory
next November.
With a clean, unsullied record
as a man, an invincible disposition
calculated to wrest victory, even
from adverse surroundings, and a
firm belief in the uprightness Of
the cause for which he has here
tofore and will again wage aggres-
sive warfare, with these to bring
him in touch with the masses of
the Republican party, victory, as
the ripening fruit that only awaits
the hand of the husbandman to
pluck and enjoy its fullest fruition,
is simply a matter Of months and
Republican determination Curtis
Courier.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1894-05-18

The railroads have granted a
rate Of one and one third fare for
the round trip to the meeting of
the republican league, in Lincoln,
June 18th. The certificate plan
will be used, and purchasers Of
tickets are therefore advised to
take receipts from their local
agents. After they are Endorsed
by the secretary Of the state league
at Lincoln, these certificates entitle
their holders to purchase return
tickets at one-third Of the regular
fare.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1894-05-18

The Indianola Courier pretends
that Andrews was defeated with
everything in his favor; while the
plain unvarn1shed fact is that be
ran ahead of the state ticket, and
that there we're elemeuts against
him whose support he was proper
ly entitled to. These facts should
be known by the Courier. They
are recognized by the people.

The latter-daY politician, |!

The latter-day politician, like
the latter-day saint, is a distinct
specie Of the human race. The
rank and file of them know, or care
very lite, about the science of gov
eminent SO long as they can hold
office or name those who do, and
all their energies seem to be direc-
ted toward the attainment Of that
end.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1894-05-18

The management of the Great
Northern railroad does not seem
to be paying much attention to the
old maxim which advises a man to
be sure he is right and then go
ahead. The company has been
fussing with its men for several
months, and when the time comes
for a show down the managers
are obliged to get down in the
dust and admit that they didn't
know what they were doing. A
railroad that is only blufing at its
men when it asks them to take q
reduction deserves to be beaten
out Of it's boots.

No. lit was in this year that the
companion charity to the Sick BABY

started. 1t was designed to give pres

children of the city. Many of these
youngsters had never heard of Santa

for people to venture into the place after

His father and brother have been
