A. state convention in South Omaha Wednesday, lxing one of the delegates from the county. The plan to erect a large building for public hall and lodge room may not win, but the effort has not cost the town any great sum, and we see no room for the "knocker." The business men of this village got turned down when they asked the railroad company to put a telephone in the depot, that's why we are not asking for a new depot. James I Seckner has been going around feeling like a iioisonod rat, and says lie had about a doen different ailments. His case is easy to diagnose a clear case of grip and there's no fun in it.

A few items for the Journal, if I have to drag them down through the mud, mud, mud. Corn Dlantinc is in a state of i nocuous desuetude for the present, overabundance of precipitation is the cause of the consequence. Contrary to nearly all previous re ports, the apple crop promises to be as good as usual, at least this is what many claim, and there will be some peaches, the same authorties claim, but they are not placing their claims very high.

A person who willfully and sneaking- ly attempts to corrupt a person's good name, is an assassin, as much as were the assassins of our martyred presi dents McKinley, Garfield or Lincoln. Mynard merchants are somewhat handicapped by reason of the teamsters st rike in Omaha -goods coming at random and not at all, in many eases. Edgar Barker is driving a new colt in an attempt to do the breaking act, and we think he will succeed if ap pearances count for anything. Boys, do not shoot the birds.

Carter started for the far west Tuesday. He will visit Wash ington and other states, with a view of locating. lie will be gone about six weeks and will be missed very much.
