Its liabilities are $400,000. Real Estate speculation two years ago, was the real cause, as they got too much on their hands and could not sell. The Free Press was not satisfied with publishing a lie about Showalter being a renegade democrot. but they published another as foul a one, last week about Thompson trying to compell men who had borrowed money of him, to vote for him. A paper that will publish such lies without any foundation or authority which they can prodnce, should not be relied upon for any statement regarding a republican candidate.

The Free Press is arain trying to prejudice the voters again-t Thompson by publishing a duwnrigtit falsehood in saying that Thompson is trying to compell those who have borrowed money from him to vote icr him, or. he will make it hot for them'. The Free Press cannot produce the authority for such a statement, but it is in keeping with their policy in this campaign. Next Tuesday is election day, and every republican voter should be at polls, and vote a straight ticket, as we well know that the opposing -party will vote tlieir ticket straight. Republican party have as capable and good, or better representative men in every respect, on their ticket as have the Democrats.

For that reason we say "don't The Dude Editor of the Colby Free Press, who not very long ego got the grard bounce from the Government printing office at Washington, by the Harrison administration, think we write silly editorials.

Wilson, Williams -burg, Kings County, New irork The Color of Eyes. Extensive researches into the heredity of eye colors have led M. Alphonse de Candolle ta consider it certain that women have a larger proportion of brown eyes than men; that where both pai'ents have eyes of the same color the chances are eighty-eight to twelve that the children who reach the age of ten years (when tho colors of eyes are fixed) III have eves of the same color; and that where the parents have eyes of different colors the chances are forty-five in favor of brown as against blue or gray for the children. He claims that brown eyes are more favorable to health and longevity than the blonde types. Arkansaw Traveler.

If you don't want the county affairs run by the Democrats, vote the straight republican ticket, and see that your neighbor does the same. Vote for Alex. Sho valter, the capable, honest and hardworking homesteader of Hale township, for Sheriff. He is the homesteaders friend, and is in every way competent to fill the office. His opponent on the Democrat ticket is not a fi-iend to the homesteader, only as he wants our vote.

He is the aristocraS butcher of Colbv, who arrested and prosecuted a homesteader -for selling dressed beef on the streets of Colby, as is shown by the records of the Justice or police Judge's books in Colbv. He is also the man who was untireino- in his ef-forts to get certain ordanances passed prohibiting the homesteader from peddling any kind of farm produce upon the streets of Colby. Is he the man for the homesteaders of this county to put in office? Do you want such a man to draw a fat salery or fees in this county? Besides this he is a man with his "'thousands" anu does not need the office. While Showalter is virtually a poor Hard working homesteader and needs the benefit of the office. He has stood by and helped to improve Thomas County, while Tom Feehen makes his money; by having money and trying to 'corner" the meat trade of Colbv, and debar the farmer trom selling things that come in campeti-tion with his trade.

Which will you vote for, lay aside party lines, and which is the man that should have the office Take Yorir Own Medicine. The Editors of the Free Press, of Colby, dont like to take their own kind of medicine. In their issue of three weeks ago, they insinuated that The Gazette was subsidized by Banker Thompson, to work for him. The Gazette in its following1 issue denied their false insinuation, and re taliated by saying thatthe Free Press had been subsidized to the extent of $200 by the democrat leaders of this county, which is the undeniable fact. The dude editors of the Free Press in their last issue, gets very wroth at us for making the above fact known and fairly paws the air, aud says it could pay us back in our own coin ten fold, if it chose to "stoop so low." The editors of that sheet must have very suddenly gotten pious or very "honorable." Don't insinuate or keep your readers wondering what you know about the azlite or its editors affairs.

Speak up'; give our rec- ord if you choose. We defy you or vour Democratic backers to show up any crookedness or boodle or anything dishonorable connected with The Gazette or its editor. You are not to "honorable" to publish what you know to be untruths about certain Republican candidates, don't be so modest in our case. Bscause we checkmated you, you howl. Our advise to you, as we would give it to little boys, is; if you don't want to -ret vour lingers burnt, non't monkey wi th fire.

Why don't the Colby Free Press howl because a banker, Lauterbach is on the Democrat ticket in Colby for township treasurer? Or why don't they howl because L. L. French is cn the Republican ticket for this same, office? What does either of these men want of that office, unless, it is to get to use the public money? It is all right in the Free Press' views that a Colby banker wants to use the public money, but because Thompson is running for omiaission-tr a nd might make his bank a de-pository for part of the County mon-ev, it's a terrible thing, and "should not be allowed'' so the Free Press says. "Oh! consistency thou art a iewel." Mr. Halford, the President's private secretary, gone to Fortress Modi-oo for a few days before actively resuming; his arderous duties.

Editor-as last week was an un usually 2-ood week to sleen we over slept ourselves and consequently not report. Mr. James Johnson of Crete Neb. was visiting his three sons of South eastern part of Sherman county last week. Mr.

Johnson has four sons in Sherman county, three on one section. The late rains are wonderfully in creasing the acerage of small grain in this vicinity. The acerage of rye and wheat this fall, will far exceed that of auy season since the settling of this country'. We unders.and that. "Here and There" is to have a "paper;" not a news paper, but a paper to open up the public highways now closed by wire fences.

We think this the riodit move in the right direction, as the public highways are for the benefit of the public, and should not be ob structed for the personal convenience of private individuals, Social dances are becoming quite popular now-a-days.
