SHELDON THROUGH
NORFOLK AGAIN
GOVERNOR WENT THROUGH WITH
NORTHWESTERN OFFICIALS.
FROM SPEAKING TRIP UP NORTH
Governor Sheldon, Who Sprinted for
Train on Way North, Has Chance to
See Depot Coming Back-oats Look
Good, Bryans Chances Bad.

Governor Sheldon was in Norfolk
Saturday noon, coming down from a
short speech making trip up the Bone
steel line, He arrived in Norfolk in
the private car of General Superinten.
dent S. NJ. Braden in company with
General Manager F. Walters and other
Northwestern officials who had been
up in the Rosebud country. Governor
Sheldon's acquaintance with most of
the officials dates back to the formal
opening of the new freight depot at
Fremont
Saw Depot First Time.
We'll, they have new depot here"
observed Governor Sheldon as he
alighted for brief walk on the station
platform. When the governor made
the race for the train on his way north
he had had no time to note the depot
structure. He saw it for the first time
Saturday noon.
Bryan viii Lose Nebraska.
With word on politics, Governor
Sheldon said that it did not look even
possible to him that Bryan would carry
the state.
Oats Better Than Bryan's Chances.
THE oats now, remarked the gov
ernor, "do look good am glad to
see them in such condition because
Madison is one of the four best oat
producing counties in the state. On the
whole oats over the state are poorer
than usual. Corn is bumper crop
Governor Sheldon is farmer-not a
Bryan farmer because he was a farmer
before he became a politician while
Bryan reversed this procedure.
Here Last Spring.
Governor Sheldon was in Norfolk
last spring speaking at the bankers
banquet-just a year after the day
that Senator Randall gave an insight
into legislative motives.

Old John Is Dead.

ONeill Democrat: Albert Roster came
to town last week and with tears in
his voice told the Democrat the sad
news. John was the old reliable fam
lily horse. He was one of the finest
specimens of horse flesh in the county,
equally at home on a carriage, on
cutivator or under a saddle. John
was killed by lightning while peace
fully nibbling the luscious blue grass
in the pasture, and his life was only
insured for $50, through the agency Of
Steve McNichols, his demise is sadly
mourned Mr.. Roster and his family
We have hung his harness on the wall
eve should have carried hundred
risk
Yet we thought the lightning would
pass him by
Though Steve to the contrary did
insist.
cannot think ofold John dead
I'd sooner think he'd strayed away,
Tears fill my eyes as | see his stall
Where lies untouched his oats and
hay.
Death has its pangs-it pains me so
To think old John must leave the
the farm
Where he worked the farm for eight
long years,
And the smallest child he would not
harm.
As DER the meadows green | gaze
Where old John met the lightning
bolt
And think of those small fifty plunks
His death gives me an awful jolt.
He has strayed away-he has gone
afar
He will never come back to good
old Holt
Where's been put up against the saw
Since old John had been a little colt
The meadow where John raked the
hay,
Meier blooms so green since that
sad day
And our hearts cry out as oft we

Old Johns not dead-he's just away

with the remains Of the two men
killed, were taken to Valentine. Rela-
tives were notified.

part of the last train, which under
conditions was running at too great a
rate of speed, was assigned as the
cause of the wreck At Cody the last
train was fifteen or twenty minutes
behind the train ahead.

various grades for the coming year
was announced at a teachers meet
ing held in the high school building
at 3 O'Clock this afternoon. At the
same time the principals of the var
ious buildings were announced.
Increase Principals Authority.
The position of principal is posi-
ton of increasing Importance in the
Norfolk schools just now The first
step in this direction was taken by
Superintendent e. ]. BOdwell, who
thought the Norfolk schools faulty

schools in this respect were an eX-
ception, and a rather undesirable eX-
ception Mr. BOdwell thought, among
the schools of the state. The move
ment to increase the authority and
Importance of the principalship, which
he started, will be again emphasized
this year. Superintendent Hunter be-
lieves that the school principals do
much to increase the efficiency of a
school system.
