AND BEER FlOTE3 FREE
The logan Celebration Might Be
Called a "iKel GnS."

The newspapers of Logan for
years have taken special de-
light in abusing Missouri Valley
about it's saloons, at the same
time claiming Logan to be a
God and morality town. A
large number from Missouri
Valley attended the Fourth of
July celebration in Logan, and
many Of them tell us that beer
was plentier in that town that
day than they have ever seen it
in Missouri Valley. The saloons
of Missouri Valley were locked
tight Oh that day, but We ere
informed that in a dozen diff
fercnt barns in the town of
Logan beer was on tap, and
anybody from a boy of 10
years to a man Of so could buy
all he wanted if he hal the
price. When things OF this
kind happen in the town Of
Logan it is time for the papers
of that town to stop abusing
Missouri Valley on the saloon
question. Here the saloons
are run absolutely according to
law and are closed every legal
holiday, and exactly at 10
O'Clock at night. If Logan
wants to sell liquor they should
find some way to sell it accord
ing to law, and not be known
as law breakers by selling it
contrary to the law. The
Harrison County Temperance
League has its headquarters in
Logan now is the time for it
to protest.
Patrick Maher, a day laborer
living at Atlantic. Iowa, shot

that city on the evening of July
Foul th, while temporarily in

his wife's death he ran into the
yard and placing the revolver
to his breast shot himself, his
death occurring a short time
after. Mrs. Edward Lett, of
this city, was a daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Maher, and she left
yesterday for that city. The
remains of Mrs. Maher were
taken to Council Bluffs for bur
ial, but the remains of Mr..
Maher were buried by the coun-
ty.
