Figuring Out 100 sons-in.Law.

A Few years ago, IN the town Of Lit
Teton, N. H., lived a man named Ben
Fiske, who was the typical New Eng
lander. One day a visitor at his house
asked him II he had a large family.
NO." he replied. II have only three
girls, but | have 100 sonsinlaw."
How is that?" asked the stranger,
astonished.
We'll, stranger. 1t Is this way. My
oldest girl married a pretty good sort
of a man He counts one. The other
two girls married good for nothing
men They are nothing but ciphers.
AS 1 and two ciphers make 100. you've

The New Court House.

The people of Blue Hill and Cowlcs
are particularly bitter against the
proposition for II new court house
not because they do not believe the
county needs one, but because each
has for years nursed hopes that the
county seat might some day be re
moved from Red Cloud and one or the
other of those towns might stand a
chance of securing it..
Last Saturday night a meeting was
held in Cowles, at which it was de-
cided that if the people of Red Cloud
want a new court house they must
build it themselves. On their part,
the people of Cowles agree to build a
substantial court house, provided the
county seat is moved to their town.
Blue Hill puts up the same kind OF a
talk. Why shouldn't they? They have
have nothing To lose and everything
to gain-and talk is cheap.
The county court house belongs lust
AS much to the people of Cowles. Blue
Hill, Rosemont, Bladen, Guide Rock
and lnavale as it does to Red Cloud.
They have just as many eases in
court, as many deeds, mortgages, etc,
on record, and furnish their share of
attendance at the sessions of court.
Therefore they are as deeply interest
ed in having Il safe, substantial build
ing in which to keep the records and
hold court as are the citizens of Red
Cloud. Some day, when there is n big
crowd in attendance like those which
were seen at the Barker trial, the
barn-like structure which disfgures
the court house park will collapse, re-
sulting in great loss of life. Should
fire once get a start among the rotten
timbcrs it would burn like finder, and
the valuable records in the old shack
would be destroyed-and they could
never be replaced.
There is no more justice in asking
the people of Red Cloud to build the
new court house than there would be
in asking one county to build a prison
in which to confine the criminals from
the remainder of the state.
We need a new court house and we
are going to have one, and Blue Hill
and Cowles may as well get in the
band wagon. Their offers to build a
new court house show that they know
the county needs one, and, as neither
of them stands a ghost of a show of
getting the county seat, they should
.'come in out of the wet"

General Freight Agent g. w. Luce
said that the company has 100 cars of
relief and commercial freight in the

cars fast enough to make room for
those constantly being sent in by the
government. While relief freight is
given preference, merchants can get
their consignments by calling for them.
Thus far there has been little demand
for commercial freight.
