In Mars.
They tell US there are people up in
Mars
What very happy people they must
be!
For In a habitation mid the stars
From various vexations they'd be
free.
For the chances are that trusts are
quite unknown
And that life insurance seeks no
gruesome gains;
The octopus has left them quite alone
Since they use canals instead OF
railway trains.
From tariff talk no doubt they ara
exempt,
And maybe they escape the prob
lem play;
The campaign orator does not attempt
To steal some other fellows boom

The trolley does not spider-web a

There is no call for lodging moto-

No Wall street sends their value up
or down
They must be very happy up in

A Wise Idea.

Underlying the surface of the
soil in many PORTIONS of Nebraska
reposes untold wealth. 1t may
be anywhere from 500 to 5000
feet down, but its there some
where and it may be here in
Custer county as well as else
where, and as no effort has ever
been made to find anything of
value except drinking water,
Ner Hartley of this city proposes
that a company be organized to
drill down to at least 5000 feet, or
until gusher of artesian water
is located, if nothing of a richer
character is found at a less depth.
If gas, oil, coal or ore is not
found in paying quantities, ar
artesian we'll is pretty sure to
result and this would furnish
power for factory, so the effort
is certainly worth the trying
Those who may feel an in
terest in such an undertaking
should consult Mr.. Hartley il
regard thereto and the result o
manifested interest may prove
valuable to those who engage in
the project and also to Broker
Bow.

Twenty million unfortunates
in Russia and fourteen million
more in China are in danger Of
starvation from famine. In
Russia much of the trouble is due
to crop losses, and other suffer
ing due to the revolutionists.
In China, floods more than any
other cause, is responsible for the
sufferings of the people. In both
countries their sufferings were
endured In silence till they be-
came too terrible and the world
was asked for aid. Prosperous
America was appealed to and
much has been done, but there
remains many afflicted people yet
to care for. Nebraska has helped

CHAs. X. BAssET'T, ASSOCIATE
Thursday, April IS, 1907.

There has been a halt in re-
clam alton and irrigation work.
The bureau discovered that at
the rate the work was being con-
Quoted the funds for the purpose
would be exhausted before the
end of the year, consequently an
order was issued 10 concentrate
work on the jobs most nearly
completed and which are likely
to soon produce revenue to dis
continue further Investigations
and to drop work on projects for
which contracts have not been
let. Lands withdrawn for re-
clamation work will be thrown
open for settlement, but the
government will withhold all
water and reservoir rights. The
new order will prove disappoint-
ing to many settlers who had
felt sanguine of irrigation inn
provements. 1t will also have a
tendency to ease up the labor
market, as thousands of men
employed on big contracts, actual
and prospective, will not have to
engage in other work.

Just now the wspapers of
the state are chronicling the
arrival of new settlers. There
will be more people to help build
up the state, more assessable
property to bear the burden of
taxation and more bright-eyed
youngsters to fill the "little sod
school house." The stouthearted
settlers come, undaunted by false
and libelous reports, to a state
that today gives greater agricul-
tural promise that any other
state in the west.

There Is no forecasting po-
litical upheavals that may occur
between now and the presiden-
tial nomination in 1908. Viewed
from the present indications, it
can be put down as positive
certainty that either Roosevelt or
Roosevelt man will be the selec-
tion of the next National Re-
publican convention. The senti-
ment of the people-a large num-
Der being democrats-is of no
uncertain character. The OPP
ponents of the president, who
call themselves conservatives,
might as we'll accept the situa-
ton. They are far more likely
not to have President Roosevelt
nominated by dropping their
antagonism than by pursuing
the policy some of the trust
barons and railroad magnates
have outlined. President Roose-
welt is honest in his position
that he desires to retire from the
presidency if he can be assured
that the successor will carry out
his workout if he finds that
impossible through the opposi-
ton of the enemies of the present
administration, he can do moth
ing else than make the race
himself-and the people will
stand by him in either instance.
Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1907-04-25

The present is not propitious
for the nomination of conserva-
tive candidates for the presidency
by either of the great political
organizations. These are radical
times and the country demands a
positive character in the White
House. No trimmer will be
elected by the people in 1908.
The man who wins will have to
have some rich, red blood cours-
ing through his veins and the
people seem determined to make
President Roosevelt tackle the
job again.

Pertaining to County Assessors.

The Lincoln correspondent of
the Omaha Bee says that a fact
that is not generally known is
that county assessors are to be
elected this fall in every county
in the state. When the biennial
elections laws were enacted two
years ago, among other terms of
county officers extended was that
of the county assessor, which was
heightened one year. This would
make the selection of these Off
GERS occur IN 1908. All of the
bieEnial election laws, except
this one, were knocked out by the
supreme court, and this one was
not tested. The recent legisla-
ture, however, enacted a law
which requires the assessors t
be elected this fall. This means
that after the November election
the State board of Assessment
will not only have to schoo
ninety new assessors in the pro
visions of the law, but the secre
tary will also have to instruc
the new assessors regarding tn
handling of property under tn,
terms of the terminal tax law
This new law will have to b
tested first by assessors who hav'
had no experience in this line o
work, as the county assessor i
! not eligible for reelection.
Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1907-04-25

In Indiana the clause in the
constitution which says that no
man can twice be placed in
jeopardy of his life, has been
construed by the state supreme
court to mean that a murderer
cannot be placed on trial again
after disagreement by the jury
such as the Thaw case. The
ruling of the Indiana court of last
resort will free criminals unles:
they are convicted at the first
trial. The decision will be Z
great argument in favor of Lynch
law.
