Proper Proceedings.

Federal Supreme Court Announces tho
Proper Proceedings.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 80. The United
States supreme court, through Justice
Gray, announced the new bankruptcy
rules which it was authorized to frame
and promulgate under the national
bankruptcy act of July /, 1898. The
rules have been awaited with much in
:erest, as number of courts declined to
proceed with bankruptcy cases until the
supreme court announced the new
rules.
Justice Gray announced that the new
rules would take effect on Monday, Jan.
2, 1899, and that all other proceedings
heretofore taken substantially in con-
for1nity with the act and to the regula-
tons of 1867 as far as practicable, would
be upheld. The blank forms to accom-
pany the rules, he said, would not be
ready for distribution for some time,
owing to proof revision, etc.

FOUNDER
a Brief sketch ss e. III. Cornelf'
Career since 1 $50.

Every western Town has its pioneer,
or old settler, or something OF thai
sort. but it is not all of them that still
retain as a resident and business man
the person who laid out the town.
The founders are often mere specula-
tors who dispose Of their property as
soon rs possible and emlgrate. This
is not the case in Valentine, aud 1t Is
the purpose of this article to give a
short sketch Of the towns founder,
G.. Fl. Cornell, president OF The Bank
of Valentine.
ar. Cornell came to this section OF
the country in c. injection with the
lost leadership at Fl. Niobrara and as
sisted in establishing the post in April,
1880. at that time the end OF the
railroad was at Neigh, 100 miles east
of here. He remained at the post I'M
til the sping of 1888, when he pur-
chased the -enptions of James
| Ray and Dave Mears, (the latter IS now
| IN Chadron). and proceeded t." lay "u
a townsite. He sought the old building
now standing on Main street near tit
depot and engaged in the m%ercantil.
business under the firm name oi
rhacher, (J. M Cornell & Co. Du'-
lug the same = ear he assisted in organ
izing Cherry county, and in the fall
was elected treasurer, and was re
! elected IN 1885, serving four years.
In 1884 he established The Bahk u,
Valentine, and it is now n OF the
most stable institutions of It's kind iIl
the northwest. During his last term
as treasurer, in 1886, he retired from
the mercantile business.
1t seems, however, that Mr.. Cornell
even in those DAYS was a we'll known
man, and il. 1888 he WAS hono,ed with
the republican nomination fol state
senator. and was elected. The 18th
district was then the second largest III
the state, and MI. Cornell had the
houor of representing more people
than any other senator in the legisla-
ture at that time. Shortly after the
ADJOURNMENT of the legislature, i'll
1889, he was appointed by President
Harrlsen to succeed s. F. Burtch as
register of the local land office, and il
that position he remained until relleV-
I'd by the present register, &. Il
Glover, in 1894.
During all this time, and in all thes'
various positions, Senator Cornell ha,
never iess faith in Valentine and is a>
much an enthusiast on the subject o.
the towns future now as he was Whe'
he owned all the property here.
