At the meeting last week the council discussedtk question of requiring druggists to keep a reg-ister and make a semi-annu- al report of liquor sold

The druggists of this city haveaevsr been required to perform this part of thecondition upon which they receive permits to sellMasters for medicinal and mechanical purposes.Tho saloon men think that the Slocumb lawstrtsHy enforced on them, the authorities shouldhe aaaally strict with the druggists.

About 10 o'clock on Friday night tost twohorsemen went dashing down Sprnce ashard as their horses could carry them. They ap-

peared to be running-- a race, one being abouttwenty feet behind the other. At the corner ofSpruce and Fifth streets in front of Baelling'sstore, the forward horseman came in contactwith a wagon driven by Tom Murphy. Thehorse struck the left hind urheel, which was tornsquarely off, the rider being thrown a'rodormore over the horse's head. Young Murphy'shorse ran away, and the boy was thrown fromthe wagon striking oa his left shoulder, receiv-ing a severe injury. The fellow riding the forward horse was said to beea a fellow called"fiismark." whe formerly lived over on theMedicine, In the darkness he escaped before hecould be arrested. The other horseman also disappeared and could not be identified.

It is rather an unusual thing to shipa harvesting machine by express, butHershey & Co. shipped one to Lexing-ton in that manner last Friday. Therewas urgent need for the harvester andthe parties ordering the same could notwait to have it come by freight. Theweight of the machine was 1,250 poundsand the rate f1.00 per cwt.

The rustling young farmer down inWell precinct, 6. A. Bacon, had a tusslewith Old Sol last week and we regret tosay that O A. was "downed."

Farmers were busy during the weekharvesting rye and barley. Dr. Longleythinks these' two crops on his place willbe up to the average. Mr. Osgood hasthe best rye he ever raised. Wheat as arule will be light, although there aresome exceptionally fine pieces, especiallyon Morrow flats and along the Medicine.Ud to Monday corn was standing thedrought capitally, although there werenumerous predictions that "another daywould finish it." A half dozen otherdays came and still corn was all right.With reasonable rains from this on cornwill be a fine crop. Potatoes need rain.

There is an undoubted falling off ofthe interest felt in the national game ofbase ball. We have not had a game inthis city during the season, and there isapparently no demand for one. This isnot only true of North Platte, the gamehas fallen into decay throughout thestate. The professional clubs are notmaking any money this year, and severalhave stranded on the shores of adversity.This feeling may prevail for a year ortwo when it will revive and become justas strong as ever; but there,will not benear so many professional clubs. Whenthese are driven out the home clubs willbe encouraged and appreciated.

The alarm bell tower is being torndown and will be erected over the Secondvard hose house. The cause leading tothe removal is due to a refusal of the citycouncil to pay rent for the ground onwhich the structure has been standing.The understanding was that there was tobe no rent charged, but a letter askingfor recompense was sent in at the lastmeeting of the council and the clerk wasinstructed to have the tower removed ifthe trustees of the church insisted on pay.The new tower will stand on bents erect-ed in the hose house, the posts beingfirmly anchored in the ground. An effortwill be made to have the tower in a moreartistic shape than the old one, aboutwhich there was so much fault found.Whether the workmen will be able toaccomplish this remains to be seen.

Stewart.Our Wealth.

We publish this week an abstract ofthe assessment of property in this countyfrom wnicn something may be learned byanalyzation. There are three banks in.North Platte, and their combiaed depositsare over sauu.UOO, nearly all of wnich isowned in this county. But under oath,the peoplie have returned only $1,328,very good evidence of how poor we arewhen the assessor is around. But it isnot necessary to enlarge on this item;there are many others fully as glaringthat will be found by an investigation.Of diamonds and jewelry we have 219.What has become of the $250 rings andbreast-pin- s worn by some of our fast railroad men ? In gold and silver plate andplated ware, the assessors have donepretty well they have found $70o worth.There are 24,000 cattle, nearly 13,000 hogs.8,797 horses, 899 sewing machines, 108pianos, aad 165 organs, all of which is avery good showing. Money is the concentrated essence of property, but itescapes taxation almost wholly.

Want Their Premiums.Ed. Tribune: We notice in your pa- -

per an announcement of a county fair thisfall, and it reminds us of the last fair andits dealings, of which we wish to speak .

There was a premium offered for thebest display of products byany one precinct. iMcnois precinct, intent on starting a precinct library andhaving products that could not be beatenin the state, made an exhibit that didcredit to Lincoln county and more tobuild up our reputation as a producingcounty than all the horseracing everdone on the fair ground track, yet theassociation paid the races, or most of.them, and left the grangers without acent and they had to pay their own expenses.

.Nichols precinct won S126.00 in pre- -

miums precinct and invidual premiumsbesides the premium won by Paxton &

Hershey on fat cattle, not included in theabove .

The sugar beet premium was paid byMr. Hupfer and that wa3 only premiumreceived in our precinct.

Now the question naturally arises, doesthe fair association expect farmers totake part in the fair by making an exhibit after such treatment? If they dothey will be very much disappointed.Not one of the persons who won a premium last fall and failed to get it willmake an effort to win a premium thisfall. . Kover.
