Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1907-09-26
Flimsy Opposition to
Judge Humphrey
They Would Have Voters Believe Some
thing Wholly Untrue
Last and All the Time.

Two years ago this fall A. r.
Humphrey was elected county
Judge, assuming the duties of
Office in January, 1906. Prior to
that time he was a practicing at
torney and in pursuit of that
profession was employed by the
Union Pacific railroad company.
Since assuming the duties of the
Office to which he was elected his
every act has been in accord with
the laws and he has performed
those duties in such a highly
satisfactory manner that the par
titan opposition could find moth
ing faulty with his administra-
ton, hence insinuated that Judge
Humphrey was using railroad
pass.
Knowing Judge Humphrey to be
honorable and that the accusa-
tion was without foundation the
editor of the REPUBLICAN wrote
him as follows:
Broken Bow, Nebr.,
Sept, %, 1907.
Hon. A. h. HUMPHREY,
Broken Bow, Nebr.
DEAR SIR:
The opposition press of the
county charge that you are a
railroad attorney and at the
same time serving as county
Judge. Believing the charge
false and uttered maliciously, will
you advise US of the facts by
ans wering the following ques-
tions:
FIRsT-Are you an attorney
for any railroad company at this
time?
SEcoND-Do you use free trans
portation when travelling on any
railroad? Yours resp'y,
CHAs. x. BAssETT.
To the above Judge Humphrey
replied:
Broken Bow, Sept. "a, '07
c. K. BAssETT,
Editor REPUBLICAN,
Broken Bow, Nebraska.
Dear Sir:
Answering your inquiry, I state
first, am not an attorney for
any railroad at this time, nor
have been at any time since
January l, 1906. Second, / am
not using free transportation on
any railroad, nor have l used it
since January l, 1906.
Very Truly,
A. h. HUMPHREY.
Those acquainted with Judge
Humphrey will not, after reading
his reply, believe that he has
used transportation furnished by
any railroad company, either as
whole or part compensation for
services-or free passes.
His word is good and truthful
at all times and as he fatty and
emphatically says he is not now,
and has not since entering upon
the duties of county judge, used
any free transportation, the in
situations and accusations on
that point fall fiat.

1t is estimated that Hartman.

1t is estimated that Hartman =,
the railroad magnate, would
have had the north pole by this
if he had not been halted in his
mad acquisition by President
Roose is administration.
Peary and Wellman failed, but
Hartman might have succeeded.
If he would head an expedition
and never come back-it would
beat an Immunity" bath.

One of the results of the high
prices of grain is to force the sale
of live stock before il is ready to
be placed on the markets. Corn,
oats and barley are too high to be
profitably fed to beef cattle and,
as a result the people are not
only getting a poorer quality Of
meats-but are forced to pay a
higher price.

The arrest of some of the mar

on statutory charges is having a
rather depressing effect on some

An unfavorable spring is no
proof that crops will be short in
the United States. The harvests
of this year show that the rally
ing power is great after a
perverse spring, and much of
the credit must be due to the
scientific skill of American
farmers.

A Splendid Showing.

Custer College opened last week
for the fall term with an en-
rollment of forty-one students,
which will undoubtedly be in
creased to seventy-fve during the
coming month, and it is con-
tdently believed, by President
Cornett, based upon commnnica-

in attendance at the winter term
Will be over one hundred. This
is indeed a splendid showing g,
considering the fact that the
college was established only a
year ago.

WHY so TIMID?

Yorkville business property has al
ways been a good investment.
Take the history Of the Loan and
Savings Bank block.
When Mr.. w. B. Moore bought 1t
from Mr.. S. L. Miller, many people
thought that Mr.. Miller had made
good sale and that Mr.. Moore had
got stuck. Later Mr.. Moore sold to
Mr.. Stroup at a big advance and there
were those who thought Mr.. Stroup
had been picked up.
You can't buy Mr.. Stroup's proper
ty today for so per cent advance on
what he paid for it.
There is the same kind Of story In
connection with the property now
owned by Mr.. A. Rose.
While Mr.. O'Leary and Mr.. kuy-
kendall were dickering over this prop
erty, Mr.. w. L. Williams stepped In
and bought 1t at an advance over the
previous figures Of either. Then In a
few weeks, Mr.. Rose paid Mr.. Will
liams a profit Of several hundred dol
lars, and in less than year Mr.. Rose
refused to take 100 per cent profit.
His property is more valuable TO-
day than it has ever been before III
the history of the town.
Those lots of mine are dirt cheap
now. and purchasers at present
prices are sure of making money,
even though they invest as matter
of pure speculation.
