TOO BUSY TO TALK
Farmers Around Hutchinson Getting In
Bumper Crop.

Farmers Around Hutchinson Getting In
Bumper Crop.
Farmers in the vicinity. Of Hutchinson
are too busy taking care Of their bumper
crop to pay any attention now to politics.
So says Will Sivright Of Hutchinson
former state senator, who was a guest at
the Nicollet hotel today.
There is little or no politics being
talked down our way" he said. People
are too busy. The crop around Hutchin-
son is a big one and everybody seems to
be more than busy at the present time
handling it. Gubernatorial talk? None OF
it as yet at Hutchinson. When we all
get less busy we may begin to talk poll
tics. AS far as I'm concerned, I'm not in
politics any longer. I'm one of the few
who knew enough to get out Of 1t before
I was licked I'm fully occupied selling
farm machinery"

NEBRASKA LOOKS GOOD.
JUDGE BOYD GLAD TO GET BACK
TO THE STATE.
NO SUCH COUNTRY IN THE WEST

Nebraska Day at the Exposition Was
the Biggest Day in Portland-The
Judge Comes Back to Earth and Sen.
tences Horse Thief.
Judge Boyd of Neigh was in town
on his way home from Center where
he has been holding a term of district
court this week. The principal fea.
ture of the term was the sentencing
of a horse thief named Zimmerman
who pleaded guilty to the charge, to
serve term of three years in the pen.
itentiary.
Judge Boyd returned Sunday morn
ing from a trip to Portland and the
coast country. He says Nebraska
looked very good to him when he got
back. He passed through no such ag.
ricultural country as this state on any
part of his trip, and he is glad he has
not been sentenced to remain in the
west. Even the famed Columbia and
Willamette valleys, where the dust
stands six inches deep in the road at
this time of the year, and where the
vegetation Is parched and dusty, are
not to be compared to the hills and
valleys of Nebraska, where the fields
and meadows have the rich color OF
luxuriant vegetation. Those great val
leys of the west look fine, it is true,
but this is largely because the tourist
has passed through several hundred
miles of absolute desert in getting
there, and he welcomes them as the
desert traveller does an oasis. The
comparison is made with the country
through which he has passed rather
than with the country which he left
on this side of the desert.
The judge was at the exposition on
Nebraska day, and to the credit Of the
state it may be said that the crowd on
that day was the largest that there
had been on the grounds on any state
day. Lots of Nebraskans have visited
the coast this year and many from this
state live in Oregon and Washington,
some of whom would be glad to get
back.
At Spokane the judge saw A. f.
Barnes and Geo. Latimer, who are en-.
joying big law practice and are pros
porous and contented. Mr.. Latimer
sends his regards to his old friends in
Norfolk.
