Sneaking of the new congressional
apportionmentthe republican congress
will be influenced by partisan motives
If raiVing the representation will insure
a larger republican majority then the
alio will bo raised and visa versa
There is no use worrying further about
the matter The Pupil I ion Times
Every man is in favor of electing
United States senators by a popular
vote until bj some chance he gets to
the senate and then his mind under
goes a change A great main7 men af
ter getting in an office would not seri
ously oppose amendments providing
for elections te be held once in twenty
years unless in the oven t of deafh of an
ollice holder Such is human nature

When Windy V Allen delivers his
valedictory in lhe United Statessenates
avo will bet dollars to doughnuts that
the following number of the Congress
ional lleilord will come mighty near
resembling a full grown bail of hay
Fremont Tridune
These Congrc ssional Hecords will be
valuable lliis 3 enr rs hay iVway up
but we scarcely think ons big senator
will do any thing of the kind as he
would thus create competition for tha
Nebraska farmer We do beleive our
however that our bif senator will
knock a few bales of hay out of the ad
ministrations policy and a lew more
out of some of the giant trusts that are
trying to rob the people of the fruits of
honest labor We hoe he1 will hit
them hard enough to glut the bailed
hay market The Atkinson- Plain

We have publ ished the Bulletin for
three years andeleven months and have
received on subscription almost every
thing that can boused iy a large fam
ily including all kinds of vegetables
and meats generally used aud have
not registered a kickjbnt a few days
ago one of our subscribers brought in a
small quarter of horse moat to apply
on subscription and we object We
were led to believe that the mHit was
from a young steer and a roast was
prepared from the same but it proved
unsatisfactory then a steak was pre
pare J but it also proved unsatisfactory
and upon dote investigation we found
the same to be horse flesh and the
whole business proved unsatisfactory
No we dont mind tough vegetables
and some other tin ngs received on sub
scription which are not first class but
we draw the line at horse meat We
are net constituted properly to relish
the sain e and would prefer to keep up
steam on vegetable diet rather than eat
horse meat Crawford Bulletin

I have for several years had in con
templation the establishment of a
weekly newspaper and this seems an
opportune time for undertaking it
Intending to devote my life to the
study and discussion of public ques
tions I have clnsen this method be
cause it will best accomplish the pur
pose which I have in view Through
such a paper I shall be able to keep in
pteh with social economical and
iticalproblems The paper wll at
the same timo if successful provide
aV income sufficient for my pecuniary
needs and this kind of work will allow
me more time with my family than 1
have been able to enjoy for several
j ears past
