It did not take five years to discover that the Jewel Grasoline Stove was the only safe gasoline stove made, but in 1887, the first year it was introduced in North Platte, FORTY-SI- X were sold, more than was sold of all others combined. We have them with either drop tank or the pneumatic, and in the language of the poet, "no pump to get out of or- der or gas forced through the room,"'but can prove that less gj escapes from it, than any stove made and can show it has many pointsojf -- superiority over all others and prove to you that tne Jewelis . They are all guaranteed to give perfect satisfaction and will consume less gasoline than any stove in the market. Gall and examine the late improved Jewel and be convinced and you will buy no other. RESPECTFULLY, L. STRICKLER. School Notes. Br the Coanty 'Saperiataadeat. Miss Mina Mills is teaching a very suc- cessful term of school in District No. 26. In this district they need school seats, maps and blackboard. At a meeting of the legal voters, they decided to purchase seats and the board was authorized to or- der them in time for the next term of school. In District 27, the school is taught by Miss Cora Shonp, and very good work is being done. The attendance is good, and the interest manifested speaks very fav- orably for the teacher. No maps in the school house, and blackboard very poor. Good seats. Miss Hattie Hostetter is doing; good work in District No. 18. I wish to men- tion of-tfc- M sckool from the-fac- t that it is the present teachers' first experience in the profession and she is doing remarka- bly well. Her appearance in the school room is good, her association with the pupils very pleasant, and her gentle, cour- teous, honest, prudent action, endears her to every pupil in the school. In this dis- trict they have excellent black-boards-sla- te and good seats. WHY I AM A REPUBLICAN. BV R. G. IKGERSOL. "I am opposed to the democratic party, and want to tell you why: Every ordi- nance of secession ever drawn, was done by a democrat. Every man that tried to tear the old flag down, was a democrat. Every enemy this republic has had for twenty-fi- ve years, was a democrat. Every man that starved union soldiers, refusing ,thm a crust in the extremity of death, was a democrat. The man who assassinated Abraham Lincoln, was a democrat. Every man that sympathized with the assasin everyynan that was glad that the noblest president ever elected was dead, was a democrat. Every niah that wanted the privilege of whipping another man to make him' work for noth- ing and pay him with lashes on his naked back, was a democrat. Every man that raised bloodhounds to pursue human be ings, was a democrat. Every man that clutched babies from the breasts of- - shrieking, shuddering, crouching mothers and sold them into slavery, was a demo crat. Every man that impaired the credit of the United States, was a democrat Every man that swore he would never pay the bonds ; every man that swore he never would redeem the greenbacks; every maWgner ot this country's credit; calumniator of his country's honor, was a democrat. Every man that resisted the draft; every man that hid in the bushes and shot union men simply because they were endeavoring to enforce the law? of their country,, was a democrat. Every man that cursed Lincoln because he issu- ed the emancipation proclamation, was a democrat. Even' man who believed that a state could go out of the union nt its pleasure; every man w'ho believed that the grand fabrio of American government could be made to crumble instantly into dust at the touch of treason, was a demo crat. Every man that helped to burn asylums in the city of New York, was a democrat. Every man' who tried to fire New York, was a democrat although he knew thousands would perish, and that the great serpents of flames, leaping from one building to another, would clutch children from their mothers' arms every wretch that did it was a democrat. Recollect.lt! Every man that tried to spread the small pox and yellow fever in the north, was a democrat. Soldiers, every scar that you have on your heroic bodies was given you by a democrat. I am a republican. " The Storm. The results of the storm on Monday night were strewn around the next morn- ing in profusion. Chimneys were blown oil, out houses thrown down and blown away and general havoc made. The large store building belonging to T. E. Wheeler, from which James Holland re- cently moved, was completelj' destroyed except the roof, which lays over on the next lot. The new house being erected by 3Ir. Robinson was badly wrecked, some small buildings being moved from their .foundations, etc. The carriage shed at Kanffman's barn blew down and open- ed the corral in which a band of horses had been put the night before. Fortu nately some of the boys got there in time to run some buggies into the gap so they did not get out. The new ware house of James Holland was badly warped and sprung, while the wind mill at his farm was blown down, tower and all. The force of the wind pulled up the tower posts on G. W. Trefren's wind mill about four inches and the tower is now taking a lean.. Much minor damage was done but the 'above represents the bulk of it. Messrs. Colman, Knox, Eubank and others had barns blown away and stove-u- p. We have heard of no one being hurt. Broken Boio Timet. When Thurman was a boy of 10 tie had faith in a scraD book. But his mother said : "Allen, I don't think you will heed that: you will find after a little that you will be depending on your scrap book al together and your memory will suffer. Scran books are easily lost, but waen you thin once' fastened in vour mild no one can s-e- t it awav from you." So the boy fixed up his mind with scrap v,v fanilidm and let. the books eo. w Whn ha cams to the law. as he says, he could remeaber the testimony of fifty witnesses, though the cases lasted s week On a verv lenethv case his V MWw U notes would be embraced in two foolscap pages. NO. 23. PAZTON NEWS. From the Pilot. Mrs. George Hartman was quite sick a few days ago. We are' glad to say she is up again. O. V. Coulter's little son was taken very sick last week. Dr. Harris was called and at last account the little fellow was much better. James Coulter caught about one hun- dred fine fish last Sunday in the water holes in the Sooth Platte. We are under obligations to him for a fine string of red horse. Frank Cahill picketed out two fine brood sows, one of the hot days last week, while he came to Jown to do seme trad- ing. Frank forgot to tio them under a shade tree and when he returned from town he found both of his fine porkers dead. We have been informed by one of the officials of the road that some parties- - are stealing coal from the trains that pass through here at night, one conductor re- porting several tons taken from one car one night last week. Paxton is getting a bad name by these depredations and it is time that the citizens should take the matter in hand and put a stop to it This is the out croppings, or result, of the start made during the cold weather last-winte- r, when, to keep families from freezing, men were forced to take coal from trains. Now there is no call for such action and a man who would board a train now and steal coal, would steal from your grainary or smoke house if he had an opportunity. This may seem to some to be putting it strong, but we fail to see any difference between stealing from a railroad car, and stealine from a homesteader's corn crib. We do not know who is doing this thieving, but one thing we do know, and that is, that if the better class of citizens of Paxton and vicinity do not put a stop to it they will not do their dut3r, and will be held respon- sible for the unlawful acts, of those who are thus engaged. Citizens of Paxton and vicinity, we have called your atten- tion to these facts, hoping that you will act at once. Will you ? For Vice-Preside- nt. Buffalo Bill is probably the best known man in New York City. Wherever he goes he is recognized and pointed out by the crowds. His long, waving hair and white sombrero assist materially in the identification. Yesterday afternoon Col. Willhrtff'canfe up on a" yacht from Eras- - tina with Col. Ochiltree and a party of ladies who had been taking a glance at the Wild West. The company landed at East Twenty-fourt- h and was driven across the city in an omnibus. All along the route on the. east side children recognized the gallant scout and cheered him lustily. Some of them ran after the vehicle for entire blocks and shouted as they ran. Heads were popped out of windows-prett- y girls paused to exchange glances, and workingmen with their tin buckets in hand nudged each other and said "That's him!" as the omnibus rolled by. It was an ovation all along the line. And Col. Cody bore it all with that quiet, gen tle modesty which is so becoming to him. What a candidate for Vice-Preside- nt he would make to help out a chilly ticket. New York World. Arrangements have been completed for a brick yard just west of town and work will be commenced at once. One hundred thousand brick have already been contracted One hundred de grees in the shade with frequent showers is pushing the corn skyward at such a rate that the farmers will have to rustle if they succeed in getting through their fields twice with their plows C. "W. Price, of North Platte, is spending the week in our city in the interest of the I. O . O. F. Insurance Co., and also for the purpose of instructing the Gandy Lodge in the new work of confering degrees. This is the way the Pioneer rolls them in . We have been advertising for a photographer as our readers know, and now we are to have two. There is a com- plete outfit on the way here, from North Platte, while we are writing this, and will be in full blast by Saturday. Gandy Pioneer. Two gentlemen started for Europe lost week with rather uncommon projects in their heads for spending the summer. Mr. Thayer, of Hartford, setting out from Glasgow, will make a tour of Europe on his bic3cle. He has projected a zigzag route in order to take in the chief continental attractions. The other novelty seeker is a smart Boston reporter, who has his eye on the little stream north of the Alps that becomes the mighty Danube: He expects to launch a row-bo- at on the river in Bavaria, and float down stream 2,000 miles to the Black Sea, taking in the capitals of four nations, whose chief cities are built on the banks of the blue Dannbe. General Sheridan before his illness hoped to occupy by the 1st of July the cottage he has been building at Nonquitt. It was to be finished by that time. He and hk family have been greatly interest ed in the construction of this little sum-- , mer retreats The embargo placed upon the convivial departments of various undergraduated institutions at Harvard, where the festive bowl made gladsome the 'students of leisure, has induced the Yale faculty to pass a law absolutely forbidding the use of intoxicating liquor in any shape what- ever in any society organization of the Diversity. .Uionn oaa. Cflifctf In. AoxMutrsolieite aad preaft atteatiaK'afcN to all baaiBees entraated to its care. Iatereet paid on time deposits. Made at the Very Lowest Bates of Interest. Eldeo T. W. Evans, the great Shaker, in celebrating his eightieth birthday, says that he will live ten years more, and will in that time see his theories realized to wit: State ownership of land, the hold- ing of public office by celibates alose, equal jauffrage, and the ownership and education of children by the State. Judge Albion W. Tjrgee, of May-vill- e. has recently patented a metal fence post It consists of a tapering tube an- chored by a rod with a sheet-meta- l arrow head on the lower end, the arrow head having a screw twist to it. The post is further braced by short rods that radiate out, bird claw fashion, front a ring around the post at the surface of'the ground. It is intended for wire, iesces. The report is current that .the U. P-wi- lj soon build its Wood River extension up the South Loup from Kearney to Cal-awa- y, and probably through Logan sad McPherson counties. This is good news' for the South Loup country as they havev been without a road and consequently handicapped in 'the development of the country. We hope the report is true. AUelmo Sun. The Rappel (Paris) says that the - gang-whic- h lately issued false French bank' notes is composed of wealthy Russians and Austrians. They possess ships and crews, and all the necessary apparatus. The notes are engraved at sea, and the plates are thrown overboard into the water. The ships are put into ports, where accomplices receive the notes, scatter them, and give back those unused. Then the whole establishment travels to another port. We do not expect to boom any one rep- resentative of Cheyenne county, but will say that Henry St. Raynor, who has de- cided, on the solicitation of his friends, to make the race if the nomination is ten- dered him, is just the man for that posi- tion and we know of no one who would more ably represent Cheyenne county and this district than Mr. Raynor. His legal ability and knowledge of the wants of the people, will give qualifications possessed by but few others in the coun- ty. Kimball Observer. A telegram from Springfield, Mo., speaks of am old ex-resid- Frank James, passing through en route to attend the conclave at Cincinnati, stating that "he exhibits in his manner a polish that is foreign tothat exhibited by hist years ago.'r It is pleasing to knew that Mr. James has quit polishing his pistols, and is devoting his attention to his manners. Texas appears to have transformed him into a Turveydrop. There is a fortune of $25,000 in one of the New York banks awaiting the order of John Anthony Barnes, who in 1868 left his father's home in Boston, and, casting his fortunes to a circus, severed all ties with family and friends and passed out of sight. Since that time he has been heard from on two occasions, but has not once visited the home of hi3 childhood. The fortune is port of on estate left by Gus-tav- us B. Sandford, grateful for the start given him in life by Alexander Barnes, a plasterer, father of the wandering heir. Germany now has more empresses, probably, than any other country. They are Augusta, dowager empress, widow of William 1; Victoria, dowager empress, widow of Frederick III; and Victoria, empress, wife of Emperor William II. The new empress is the daughter of the Duke of Schleswig-Holstei- n, and was born in 1860. She is said to be rather dull and of the phlegmatic German type. Her distinctive Teutonism is a recom- mendation to the present Emperor, as he is anxious that his "English blood" shall disappear from the family. Mrs. OLeary's Famous Cow kicked over a lamp, and Chicago, the bustling young metropolis of the West, was laid in ruins. This is a striking il- lustration of the old saying that "great results have small beginnings." The ne- glected cold, the backing cough of to-da- y, may, a few months hence, develop into that direst of destroyers, consumption. Be warned in time . Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, if taken in the first stages of this dread disease, is a certain cure. It is also a sovereign remedy for asthma, bronchitis, sore throat, chronic nasal catarrh, and all diseases of the res-psrato- ry organs. The cleansing, antiseptic and healing qualities of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy are unequaled. NOTICE. The last of the semi-month- ly Land Ex- cursions to Kansas and Nebraska points by the Union Pacific, "The Overland Route" will leave Missouri River June 20th. Eastern Lines will sell tickets for these excursions, and parties should avail, themselves of the opportunity now offered.

It did not take five years to discover that the

Jewel Grasoline Stovewas the only safe gasoline stove made, but in 1887, the first year it was

introduced in North Platte, FORTY-SI- X were sold, more than was sold

of all others combined. We have them with either drop tank or the

pneumatic, and in the language of the poet, "no pump to get out of or-

der or gas forced through the room,"'but can prove that less gj escapesfrom it,than any stove made and can show it has many pointsojf --superiority

over all others and prove to you that tne Jewelis .

They are all guaranteed to give perfect satisfaction and will consumeless gasoline than any stove in the market. Gall and examine the lateimproved Jewel and be convinced and you will buy no other.

School Notes.Br the Coanty 'Saperiataadeat.

Miss Mina Mills is teaching a very suc-

cessful term of school in District No. 26.In this district they need school seats,maps and blackboard. At a meeting ofthe legal voters, they decided to purchaseseats and the board was authorized to or-

der them in time for the next term ofschool.

In District 27, the school is taught byMiss Cora Shonp, and very good work isbeing done. The attendance is good, andthe interest manifested speaks very fav-

orably for the teacher. No maps in theschool house, and blackboard very poor.Good seats.

Miss Hattie Hostetter is doing; goodwork in District No. 18. I wish to men-

tion of-tfc-M sckool from the-fac-t that it isthe present teachers' first experience inthe profession and she is doing remarka-bly well. Her appearance in the schoolroom is good, her association with thepupils very pleasant, and her gentle, cour-

teous, honest, prudent action, endears herto every pupil in the school. In this dis-

trict they have excellent black-boards-sla- te

and good seats.

WHY I AM A REPUBLICAN.BV R. G. IKGERSOL.

"I am opposed to the democratic party,and want to tell you why: Every ordi-

nance of secession ever drawn, was doneby a democrat. Every man that tried totear the old flag down, was a democrat.Every enemy this republic has had fortwenty-fi- ve years, was a democrat.Every man that starved union soldiers,refusing ,thm a crust in the extremity ofdeath, was a democrat. The man whoassassinated Abraham Lincoln, was ademocrat. Every man that sympathizedwith the assasin everyynan that was gladthat the noblest president ever electedwas dead, was a democrat. Every niahthat wanted the privilege of whippinganother man to make him' work for noth-

ing and pay him with lashes on his nakedback, was a democrat. Every man thatraised bloodhounds to pursue human beings, was a democrat. Every man thatclutched babies from the breasts of- -

shrieking, shuddering, crouching mothersand sold them into slavery, was a democrat. Every man that impaired the creditof the United States, was a democratEvery man that swore he would neverpay the bonds ; every man that swore henever would redeem the greenbacks;every maWgner ot this country's credit;calumniator of his country's honor, was ademocrat. Every man that resisted thedraft; every man that hid in the bushesand shot union men simply because theywere endeavoring to enforce the law? oftheir country,, was a democrat. Everyman that cursed Lincoln because he issu-

ed the emancipation proclamation, was ademocrat. Even' man who believed thata state could go out of the union nt itspleasure; every man w'ho believed thatthe grand fabrio of American governmentcould be made to crumble instantly intodust at the touch of treason, was a democrat. Every man that helped to burnasylums in the city of New York, was ademocrat. Every man' who tried to fireNew York, was a democrat although heknew thousands would perish, and thatthe great serpents of flames, leaping fromone building to another, would clutchchildren from their mothers' arms everywretch that did it was a democrat.Recollect.lt! Every man that tried tospread the small pox and yellow fever inthe north, was a democrat. Soldiers,every scar that you have on your heroicbodies was given you by a democrat. Iam a republican. "

The Storm.The results of the storm on Monday

PAZTON NEWS.From the Pilot.

Mrs. George Hartman was quite sick afew days ago. We are' glad to say she isup again.

O. V. Coulter's little son was takenvery sick last week. Dr. Harris wascalled and at last account the little fellowwas much better.

James Coulter caught about one hun-

dred fine fish last Sunday in the waterholes in the Sooth Platte. We are underobligations to him for a fine string of redhorse.

Frank Cahill picketed out two finebrood sows, one of the hot days last week,while he came toJown to do seme trad-ing. Frank forgot to tio them under ashade tree and when he returned fromtown he found both of his fine porkersdead.

We have been informed by one of theofficials of the road that some parties-- arestealing coal from the trains that passthrough here at night, one conductor re-

porting several tons taken from one carone night last week. Paxton is getting abad name by these depredations and it istime that the citizens should take thematter in hand and put a stop to it Thisis the out croppings, or result, of thestart made during the cold weather last-winte- r,

when, to keep families fromfreezing, men were forced to take coalfrom trains. Now there is no call forsuch action and a man who would boarda train now and steal coal, would stealfrom your grainary or smoke house if hehad an opportunity. This may seem tosome to be putting it strong, but we failto see any difference between stealingfrom a railroad car, and stealine from ahomesteader's corn crib. We do notknow who is doing this thieving, but onething we do know, and that is, that if thebetter class of citizens of Paxton andvicinity do not put a stop to it they willnot do their dut3r, and will be held respon-sible for the unlawful acts, of those whoare thus engaged. Citizens of Paxtonand vicinity, we have called your atten-

tion to these facts, hoping that you willact at once. Will you ?

Buffalo Bill is probably the best knownman in New York City. Wherever hegoes he is recognized and pointed out bythe crowds. His long, waving hair andwhite sombrero assist materially in theidentification. Yesterday afternoon Col.Willhrtff'canfe up on a" yacht from Eras- -tina with Col. Ochiltree and a party ofladies who had been taking a glance atthe Wild West. The company landed atEast Twenty-fourt- h and was driven acrossthe city in an omnibus. All along theroute on the. east side children recognizedthe gallant scout and cheered him lustily.Some of them ran after the vehicle forentire blocks and shouted as they ran.Heads were popped out of windows-prett-y

girls paused to exchange glances,and workingmen with their tin bucketsin hand nudged each other and said"That's him!" as the omnibus rolled by.It was an ovation all along the line. AndCol. Cody bore it all with that quiet, gentle modesty which is so becoming to him.What a candidate for Vice-Preside- nt hewould make to help out a chilly ticket.New York World.

The ships are put into ports,where accomplices receive the notes,scatter them, and give back those unused.Then the whole establishment travels toanother port.

We do not expect to boom any one rep-

resentative of Cheyenne county, but willsay that Henry St. Raynor, who has de-

cided, on the solicitation of his friends, tomake the race if the nomination is ten-

dered him, is just the man for that posi-

tion and we know of no one who wouldmore ably represent Cheyenne countyand this district than Mr. Raynor. Hislegal ability and knowledge of the wantsof the people, will give qualificationspossessed by but few others in the coun-

A telegram from Springfield, Mo.,speaks of am old ex-resid- FrankJames, passing through en route to attendthe conclave at Cincinnati, stating that"he exhibits in his manner a polish thatis foreign tothat exhibited by hist yearsago.'r It is pleasing to knew that Mr.James has quit polishing his pistols, andis devoting his attention to his manners.Texas appears to have transformed himinto a Turveydrop.

Germany now has more empresses,probably, than any other country. Theyare Augusta, dowager empress, widow ofWilliam 1; Victoria, dowager empress,widow of Frederick III; and Victoria,empress, wife of Emperor William II.The new empress is the daughter of theDuke of Schleswig-Holstei- n, and wasborn in 1860. She is said to be ratherdull and of the phlegmatic German type.Her distinctive Teutonism is a recom-mendation to the present Emperor, as heis anxious that his "English blood" shalldisappear from the family.
