Those who know the full history of

any wonder they oppose the present
proposition? I'lattsmouth ought to
have lights, but the great majority of
our citizens would rather grope their

than saddle upon themselves the re
sults of any such propositions. The
citizens of I'lattsmouth have been in
darkness for over two years, but they
now have their eyes wide open when
it comes to light proposition from any
of those who have been the means of
getting the city into its present
troubles. When the city gets out of
its present light trouble then it will
be time to entertain new propositions,
not before. And the Journal hopes
the city will not jump Into any more
such holes.
YOUNGER DAYS RE-CALLED.
Fiftieth Wedding Anniversary of Mr. and
Mrs. Ivan S. White,
On Friday, Feb. li), 1004, many old
time, and some young friends, of Mr.
Ivan S. White and his worthy wife
visited them in their comfortable
home three miles south of Rock Rluffs,
to celebrate the marriage of Miss Ann
Smith to Mr. Ivan S. White, which
event occurred Feb. li), 18'i4, In Galla
tin, Davis county, Missouri.
Two years later Mr. and Mrs. White
moved to Nebraska Territory and set
tled on, and Improved a farm, that
they still own and cultivate, that Is
only one mile distant from their pres
ent residence.
Dame nature has greatly favored
this couple with health, plenty of
energy and business push. They are
still on the sunny side of "0, and have
not yet planned to take a rest. Mr.
White can straddle a pony and round
up a bunch of cattle like a cow-boy;
and Mrs. White attends to her house
hold cares as she did In younger days,
and we doubt, not she could make gar
den if It was necessary to do so.
They love their farms, and enjoy
farm life, and nothing would Induce
them to leave the house that Is so
dear to them.
Mr. and Mrs. White had learned
some days previous that their friends
were intending to give them a "round
up," so w hen the crowd "let down" on
them, they had on their most gra
cious smiles.
We must not use any "high falutln"
adjectives to describe the dinner that
was served on this occasion. What
Nebraska could not supply in edibles
to make this a feast, California and
the tropics furnished -so there!
The entertainment of the afternoon
was of the natureof a inusiealc. Mr.
George Mutz, of Murray, sang several
songs, and Mrs. Dr. Gilmore, Mrs. Jas.
Holmes and Miss l'earl White each
gave several performances on the
piano. Miss Pauline Oldham gave a
recital of one of James Whitcomb
Riley's most pathetic compositions for
the special benetit of the bride and
groom of fifty years ago.
The friends and relatives of Mr. and
Mrs. White had selected some presents
to he given to them as tokens of es
teem, and Mr. Ami Todd of I'latts
mouth, was selected 10 make the pre
sentation speech. To Mr. White was
given a gold headed cane with his
name engraved thereon, and a gold
watch chain; to Mrs. White was given
a large gold ring, a gold thimble and
other valuable presents, and to both
were given a line gold bronzed clock
to measure time.
The recipients of these tokens of
friendship were so deeply touched by
these manifestations of affection for
them that they were unable to audi
bly express their thanks.
Mrs. Melissa Hyatt, their only
daughter, who resides at Sidney, la.,
sent her regrets at not being able to
be present on account of sickness in
her family. Mark, the only son, and
his wife were present, and took an ac
tive interest in making the guests
comfortable. Mark llveson an adjoin
ing farm and assists his father In tak
ing care of the line herds of cat tie that
are to be seen in the feed lots and
llelds. To Mr. and Mrs. Will Royal
great credit is due for helping to
make this anniversary a success.
Many kind words were spoken asthc
guests were departing for their homes,
all uniting In the wish that the last
days of Mr. and Mrs. White will be
their best days.
Now, Ain't This So?
When a hog gets an earof corn every
other hog will trot along behind and
Kiiieal and beg and Is ready for a bite;
but just let the hog get his head fast
in a crack, and every son of a sow will
jump on hint and tear hlm to pirns.
Just so with men. As long as a man
Is prosperous and has plenty of money
he can't keep friends dlT with a base
lull bat. The moment he Is unfortu
nate and his wealth Is all gone, he is
not only snubbed at by his former
friends, but they begin to do hlm all
the harm possible. When a man starts
down grade the world stops aside and
greases the track.
If you are a Judge of a irood smoke,
try the "Acorns" .1 cent cigar and you
w ill smoke no other.
OVER A HALF CENTURY SINCE
Reminlscenses of the "Queen City of the
West" Fifty Years Ago.
On the 12th day of May, 1849, my
brother and myself arrived in Cincin
nati from New Orleans by steamboat.
Cincinnati was the mccca of the Ger
mans, who claimed a large population.
It was then a city of ir0,000 inhabi
tants and was called the "Queen City
of the West."
On our arrival we found the city in
deep mourning and business sus
pended. To find employment was out
of the question. Doctors, nurses and
help to attend the sick and dying were
needed, as hardly a house escaped the
disease. Churches were open day and
night and people flocked there con
tinually, praying God to take the des
stroying angel away. From one board
ing house seven corpses were taken one
Sunday morning for burial. Reing
young and healthy and not afraid, and
for want of something to do, I volun
teered to nurse the sick and attend
the dying. The sights I saw I cannot
describe with my pen. Doctors could
not attend to one-half of the people
alllictcd. Every household had a sup
ply of cholera medicine, and all we
could do was to follow the directions.
In one room we could see a priest bend
ing over a dying person, administering
the last rites of the church. In an
other room we could see a Sister of
Mercy bending over a sick person,
speaking words of consolation. As
soon as a person was dead, the death
had to be reported to the health office,
and soon after a colli n was brought to
the house and the corpse placed In the
same. No preparation was made as
regards clothing, anything on hand
was used on the corpse, the coffin
closed and hauled away by the au
thorities. A wagon of some kind
stood In waiting and the corpse was
taken to the cemetery for burial. The
smell of the sick and dying was some
thing terrible, and the doctorsadvised
every nurse to have a llask of brandy
In his pocket and take a swallow every
time he had to bend over the sick or
dying. .
I n the fall of the same year the cele
brated singer, Jennie Llnd, gave
several concerts In that city, and I had
the pleasure of hearing her sing. I
also was present at the grand recep
tion of Louis Kossouth, the Hungarian
patriot, received from the citizens of
Cincinnati. He remained several days
and made speeches. I also met Gott
fried Klnkcl, the father-in-law of Carl
Schurz. Klnkel took part in the revo
lution In Germany and had to llee for
his life In 1H4S.
Having a population of 20,000 people
It was expected to find all kinds and
classes of people. Among them we
found a great many anarchists and
revolutionists who were driven out of
Germany in 1S48, and who flocked to
Cincinnati, the mecca of the Germans.
They were greatly disliked by most of
the citizens, but they were unable to
prevent their coming. They called
themselves "frelgelsters," or unbe
lievers. We called them "Snauts
baerte," the translation in German
for mustache. They denounced re
ligion of any form, especially were they
hostile towards the Catholic church.
They had their halls In which to meet
every night to discuss and preach their
belief; but the most they did was to
drink beer, especially on Sundays. On
these days they brought their women
and children with them. Of course
they would do a great deal of speaking
which consisted of denouncing God
and religion, and when one would
make a sarcastic hit, all would jump
up and w ith a glass of beer in their
hand, shout a "Vlval hoch." About
this time the American government
Intended to build the Washington
monument, at Washington, D. C.and
the European countries donated mar
ble slabs toward the building of the
same. So did the Fop: it Rome, who
sent six line and large marble slabs to
In; used for the monument. He also
sent Archbishop lledinl with them to
present them to the American people.
They reached New York and were
stored In a ware house to lie shipped
to Washington. The warehouse was
broker. Into and the marble slabs des
troyed. Hishop lledinl visited Wash
ington and all the principal cities of
the I'nited States, Including Cincin
nati. While In Cincinnati he was the
honored guest of Archbishop 1'urccll.
While there the anarchism formed a
plot to mob him and drive hlm out of
the city on a certain day. Of course
this was kept secret, but the police got
wind of It, and on the morning of the
assault, a large force of police were
stationed on the cross roads. As luck
would have It, I was on my way to
work and saw, from the distance, the
procession of some two hundred men,
dressed In linen Jaeketsand pants with
a Kossuth hat to match. They ar
rived within live blocks of the cathed
rat. marching four abreast on a straight
road. When they reached the cross
streets where the police were waiting
for them, the latter with their clubs,
fell onto the anarchists, knocking
them right and left. The anarchists
w ltli their canes fought for aw hile and
stood their ground. Rlood was seen
In every direction and their white
uniforms were covered) so wero their
faces I never saw such a fight. The
police were too much for the "tfwants
barte" and they finally broke, running
as fast as they could out of reach of
the policemen's clubs. They arrived
at their hall in a very delapidated and
bloody state, bemoaning their bad
luck. This taught them a lesson and
they let Bishop Redlnl alone after
that.
Another Incident while In Cincin
nati came under my observation. It
was during the Know-Nothing excite
ment in 1853. Cincinnati was full of
them. . Their object was to drive all
foreigners out of the country, and
were especially hostile towards Catho
lics. They formed a political party
and tried to elect a president. They
were bitterly opposed by ti demo
crats who stood by the foreigners, de
termined to beat the outfit, and, I
will say, I became ademocrat and have
stood by that party up to this date.
An old saying is "a friend in need Is a
trlend Indeed." The feeling on both
sides was very bitter, and it was an
every day occurrence tohear that some
of the most respectable people were
openly Insulted and maltreated on the
public streets and for no other reasons
than that they were Germans or Irish.
At one time messengers from the
Catholic cathedral were sent in every
direction to Catholics to come to the
Uishop's church to prevent the Know
Nothings from burning the same. A
large force of people armed to the
teeth, stood near the church awaiting
the coming of the Know-Nothings.
Rut they failed to come, seeing so
many Irish and "Dutch," (as they
called us Germans). Another threat
was made to burn St. Mary's church
on 13th street, across the Miami canal.
Night came and so did seven hundred
Irish Catholics, who came from the
cathedral. They surrounded the
church, determined to shed their last
drop of blood in defense of the ch urch.
It was no secret that an understand
ing was agreed to, that If the Know
Nothings burned any of tho churches
the city would be set on fire, the same
as the Russians did with the city of
Moscow, when Napoleon Invaded Rus
sia, and was sent post haste back to
France, leaving thousands of his poor
soldiers to freeze to death or by drown
ing In the river Resezina. But thank
God, thlsdid nothappen In Cincinnati,
for the churches were not molested.
The Germans across the canal had
formed a military company Which was
in command of General Moore. They
had In their possession a small govern
ment cannon. The Know-Nothingsor-dered
General Moore to deliver the
same over to them at a certain date.
The General sent word to them to
come and take It. Sure enough on the
day ordered to deliver up thccannon,a
large force of Know-Nothings appeared
at the canal, trying to cross the bridge
but were prevented from doing so by
the Germans and democrats from the
other side of the canal.
They cursed and damned the Dutch
and others, and swore they would cross
the bridge. Rut the other side held
their ground. Excitement ran high.
The streets were paved with hard,
round stones, called bullheads. These
were torn up and carried to the roofs
of the two-story ware-houses, the
roofs being flat and covered with
tar and gravel. Even the women
carried the rocks to the roof. Resides
could be seen dozens of large, iron ket
tles In which tar was heated to a
boiling heat. This was done In case
the Know-Nothings should force their
way across the canal, they would lie
received by bucketsful of boiling tar
and rock9. Rut the Know-Nothings
found out to their surprise they were
outnumbered, and, cussing the Dutch,
retired in disgust.

A GOOD WOMAM PASSES AWAY
Death of Mrs. Clara 6. Johnson, a Most
Estimable Lady.
Mrs. Clara R. Johnson, wife ofClias.
S. Johnson, died Friday evening Feb.
1!), 1!H(4. This announcement was a
surprise to many citizens of l'laUs-
mouth, who had scarcely learned of
her illness, which was of but short du
ration. Rut'a few days previous she
attended the funeral of Sister Craig,'
and took an active part in the funeral
services both at the home of the de
ceased and at the grave. It was here
that she contracted a cold that soon
ended In her death.
Mrs. Johnson was born at Milan,
Illinois, a small village near Rock Is
land, January.'!!, ise,, where she spent
her childhood. And it was here that
she was united in marriage w ith Mr.
Johnson in lsl. she had been a resi
dent of I'lattsmouth for the past six
teen years, where she was loved for
her many excellent qualities, and
manifestations of kindness to all who
knew her. "To know her was to love
her." This has been uttered many
times on various occasions, but on this
one it is true to the letter. Her every
acts were a true denntion of this fact.
No one stood higher in social life, and
it was her every thought to do that
which would most benelit those sur
rounding her. In her death the great
ly bereaved husband has the deepest
sympathy of the entire community.
She also leaves a little daughter, Mil
dred, nine years of age, who is hardly
old enough to realize the great loss of
a dear mother.
The funeral occurred at the late
home of the deceased Sunday after
noon, after which the remains were
conveyed to the R. - M. depot for
shipment to Roek Island, followed by
a large number of sympathetic friends
and neighbors.
Mr. Johnson Is a noble citizen, and
the Journal can do no more than others
In this, the hour of his great auiielion,
and that Is to offer our nmst heartfelt
sympathy.
