Thursday, March IA, 1907.

That the taxpaying citizens of
Broken Bow have an abiding
faith in the city is evidenced by
their actionat the caucus to nom
mate candidates for city officers
Monday night when it was shown
by the report of Mayor George
that there was a shortage of
funds by about $500 to fully pay
the expenses during the past
year and that the levy for this
year would be inadequate to meet
the expenses the ensuing year on
account of having two steel
bridges and new $500 boiler at
the pumping station to pay for.
Some of the heaviest tax payers,
upon learning of this state of
finances, at once proposed that
the question of levying an adj
ditional S mills be submitted to a
vote at the FORTH coming election,
the only legal manner it could be
done, and the proposition met
with the hearty approval of all,
nearly three hundred citizens
being present.

A Use For Cornstalks.

Since it has become unsafe to
pasture cornstalks it would be
we'll for the farmer to investigate
the question of converting his
cornstalks into alcohol.
1t is claimed that every ton of
cornstalks will make 100 pounds
of alcohol. An acre of corn stalks
will make from five to ten tons
or from 80 to 100 gallons of
alcohol to the acre, which, at 10
cents per gallon it would be
worth from So to S16 an acre, a
very nice sum from what is now
practically wasted.

One Citizens Views.
OF REPuBLICAN:

EDITOR OF REPUBLICAN:
In my opinion you struck the
key note in your last issue in an
article or two concerning the
improvements and cleaning up of
the city. While the Improve
ment Club is a good thing and is
advocating principles that are of
interest to all we'll minded
citizens, yet cannot do it all.
If one should travel over our city
at any time he will see filth and
refuse in great heaps about the
premises. Spring is upon us,
and with the warm days and wet
weather that naturally comes,
these piles of filth are the homes
of disease germs. Then when
fly time comes these germs will
be scattered far and wide, and
good foundation is laid for a run
of typhus or other infectious
disease.
Aside from the health question,
our citizens should have the
pride and energy that is neces-
sary to clean up, and should go
at it at once and see to it that
the premises he resides in are
cleaned and all refuse carted
away. Most of our citizens own
their own homes, and / am sure
that the mere pride Of owning a
piece of property, more especially
your home, is incentive enough
to keep it clean and respectable.
During the past few years it
has been amply demonstrated
that trees and flowers are easily
grown, if few minutes attention
each day during the growing
season are given to them. What
is more restful to the eye than a
pretty and ornamental flower
bed in the front yard, surrounded
| by shade or even fruit trees?
Vines should be planted at the
West and South windows to pro-
'ect the house from the summers
heat. There are several hardy
climbers that do we'll in this soil,
and they are easily propogated.
Many a householder each year
cuts down and thins out vines
that are too TUCK, and as most OF
these climbers will propagate
from cuttings, there is enough
destroyed each year, which, il
properly set out would produce
shade for half of the exposed
windows in the town.
Let us assist the improvement
Club by each one taking a pride
in his own premises and the
street in front and clean up anC
keep clean and let us plant some
flower seeds, thus deriving /;
pleasure and giving one 4;
hundred fold. X. A. M.

Editor Pinch, of the Merna
Postal Card, visited his county
seat town Monday with the
intention, supposedly, of nosing

trough, from which he claims to
have been pushed away. If he
failed to lap up enough to fill
him to the soft palate there will
probably be more bowling or
growling-from the direction of
Merna. In arguing for county
division, recently, he said: at is

The editor of the Barber
County Index (Kansas) does not
mean to mislead anyone. Since
the pass is no more he has taken
out the railroad time cards and
in the same space says: "Trains

appropriately be inserted in the
Burlington schedule in lieu of
the time given for No. AZ.

The French are ahead of, the
people of the United States in
some things. The jury system
heard fourteen men are sworn in
two as substitute jurymen.
These latter sit at the trial, but
have no vote in reaching a
verdict unless one or two of the
twelve regular jurymen become
i'll. This prevents mistrial and
expedites the business of the
court. The United States would
lose nothing by trying similar
method by making it possible for
ten of the twelve men to reach a
verdict in case a member of a
jury becomes i'll or dies.

The prices on real estate
within the limits of the city Of
Broken Bow are actually ballon-
ing, though with bona-fde values
instead of gas, and with no
chances whatever Of a collapse.
Very steadily for the past year
or so the values of town lots have
been advancing and they continue
on the upward tendency. Lots
offered a year ago at 500 are
held at $50 now with prospects
of $25 more being attached by
the time robins nest again. A
spirit of home enterprise is being
manifest and ere snow flies next
winter Broken Bow will show up
as one of the cleanest, tidiest and
progressive cities in Central
Nebraska. With delight we
