It is a serious question in the minds of
1 many whether Nebraska would not be
, better off with ino irrigation law than
with the Akers' law.
T1ti ; report of Bank Examiner Cline
on the Trenton lank failure would indicate -
dicate that Charles H. Peck is no slouch
when it comes to looting a bank in
first-class , artistte style.
The Illinois legislature has passed a
law making it a misdemeanor for a
woman to wear a high hat at the thea-
tre. If it will now pass a measure making -
ing ; it felonious for a man to go out and
take two or three drinks between acts ,
no one can say that an injustice has
been done either sex. A man has no
more right to go forth and acquire a bad
breath and bring it back with him than
a woman has to obscure the view of
others by wearing a church steeple on
her shapely head.
Or the mania for gambling an ex-
chauge says : "A man is nothing short
.of an ineffable fool to begin bucking the
tiger. It sends more men to hellsocial-
1y , morally and financially than all other
evils combined. Men lose their minds
over a chance to win at Monte Carlo.
A boy is a fool to begin. It grows like
the drink habit and there is no Kecley
cure to straighten him up. Saw wood ,
dig ditches , shovel dirt , anything to
earn an honest penny , but be not tempted -
ed to take a chance on getting something -
thing for nothing. The other fellow is
i always smarter than you are. You are
sure to be betting on somebody else's
game Don't be a sucker. Don't be an
inspired idiot. Don't gamble. "
E. F. Test says that the farmers of
Iowa and Nebraska should plaint liberally -
ly in grain and corn this year. "The
indications are , " says he , "that the
months of June , July and August will be
hot , steauny and sultry , just the reverse
of last , year. The planet Venus will
travel with the earth through space
around the sun during these months ,
passing the earth on the 19th of Septem-
ber. After that clay we must expect
frost. Certain periods of March and
April vrill be mild and warm , but there
is danger to the fruit crop about the 15th
to the 17th of May. Altogether the
season will be similar to the summer of
1884 , then Venus and the earth were
traveling around the sun together.
Venus is a marine world-that is , coy-
ered with water , and when in proximity
to the earth in summer , we can always
expect a hot , sultry , wet season during
the summer month , . "
bUX bLUCIi.
Wednesday , February 6th , was a
rustling day.
E. M. Brewer will start forlowa , soon ,
to make his home.
There is a good deal of sickness among
'children at the present time.
There was a woodchopping , Saturday ,
for the minister and the church.
James Pinkerton is the happy papa of
a bouncing girl baby since February
the first.
Justice of the Peace Kiughorn is kept
btisy making out applications for aid ,
now a-days.
Rev. Vivian has carried on one of the
most successful protracted meetings ever
held in the Red Willow valley , there being -
ing upwards of eighty uniting with the
church.
There has been a great many stories
going around about parties receiving aid
who are able to get along without it , and
of other parties whose parents have said
they did not want their sons to receive
aid , as they were able to keep them.
This report is false , for the parents
have never said anything of the kind.
It is very unjust to circulate such reports.
There is not a family on the divide but
will have to have help , either food ,
clothing , or feed and seed to put in a
crop , and we would deem it a favor for
such parties to remain silent. There is
enough for all without the hog act.
There's Always a Reason.
It is an easy thing to account for the
wonderful growth of the DAILY STATE
JOURNAL recently. Its price has been reduced -
duced to 5o cents per month without
Sunday , or 65 cents with Sunday. T11R
JOURNAL has alwas been reliable and
honest , printing the news without fear
or favor. The people of Nebraska realize -
ize that they need a paper published at
the capital , and when the price of TsE
JOURNAL was reduced the subscription
"list grew at a phenominal rate. THE
JOURNAL is a Nebraska paper through
andthrougb.

men , has returned to his Illinois home.
Mary Voss havi g finished her winter

Iowa , whither the family went last fall.
Winter still continues but no great
amount of snow has fallen at this
writing , although more or less falls every
day.
Mr. Harbican has sold a portion of the
farm known as the Squires place. Mr.
H. may look further west , but is undecided -
cided at present.
There has been some loss of stock on
the creek , although the animals seemed
to be in fair condition. George Cooper
and S. A. Speer have each lost a horse.
The weather has been too severely
cold for successful revival work at the
sod church , ] just west , although fairly
well attended when not too cold to turn
out.
Andrew and William Fauss have
reached their southern destinnatioh in
good order , losing no stock enroute.
We hope the boys r will be prospered and
have an all-around good time while
there.
The Vailton school closed on the 5th
with an evening entertainment consisting -
ing of recitations , dialogues , talieaux ? ,
singing , etc. , all of which passed off
pleasantly with the very best of order.
We were assisted by- Maud and Will
Hunter of district No. r6 and sonic of
ourex pupils and older members of the
home district.
We hear considerable relief talk , but
as a matter of fact district 29 has sent
out more relief than it has received , although -
though none are more worthy than our
own citizens. No applications for coal
were handed the committee ; indeed one
ex soldicr just east of us declined to take
coal sent 'y the Grand Army post , preferring -
ferring to work up wood on the creek.
Miss Edith Coleman , who left for Los
Angeles , California , Tuesday , came here
thirteen years ago when a mere child.
The past three years she devoted
most of the time to school teaching.
On last Sabbath at the close of the
Sunday school at the Coleman school
house , while the closing hymn in the
Sunday school quarterly was being sung ,
"May Jesus Be With You Till We Meet
in Our Home Above , " the school gathered -
ered around her and bid her good bye.
There was not a dry eye in the house.
John M. Bulger of Correll precinct ,
Hitchcock county , killed himself , last
Sunday aweek. He had $300 in the
Trenton bank failure , and the supposed
loss caused him to commit the terrible
act.
Indianola is figuring on investing $6-
000 fn waterworks , and a petition for
signers to get the sense of the voters on
calling a bond election is being circulated -
ed in Indianolaand Red Willow prec.
Peter McDonald from Driftwood precinct -
cinct is said to be down in Missouri at
his old and scheme again. County Clerk
Filbert of Hitchcock county has telegraphed -
graphed that he is a fraud.
The county commissioners will meet
again on the 20th. There were not
signers enough to call an election to
vote bonds to secure feed and seed.
J. A. Cass , the lumberman , attended
the commissioners' meeting at Indianola
on Monday , hating some claims for due
allowance.
T. J. Cress had sonic claims before the
commissioners at their session , Monday ,
in Indianola.
