Rev. E. L. Sherman returned
Monday from the Slate Congrega
tional Association which convened

thinks, are Roman Catholicism,
communism and paganism.
Miss Reed, daughter of Bcnj.
Reed, of 111., passed through the

her father and family expect to re
turn to Nebraska in the spring, and
again take up their residence in
Stanton county.
The law of Nebraska contem
plates that the protection (by firing)
of one's premises from the ravages
of possible prairie fires, shall be
done thoughtfully, by design, and
with the aid of his neighbors. At
least, we put that construction upon
the provisions of the statute which
requires two days notice of au in
tention to start such a fire.
Geo. F. Howell, Eq., former
clerk at the Pawnee Reservation,
latterly of Mt. Ephraim, New Jer
sey, spent a part of last week, in
company with our townsman, A. N.
Burgess, in looking up a location
west of us. We should be glad to
6ce Mr. Howell locate permanently
in this State, as he is a young man
of ability aud enterprise, and would
be an acquisition to any community.

will find that, whether or not, he
holds the balance of power in Platte
county, he is nowhere in the 51st
representative district. We give
Mr. S. credit for being aware of
this fact.

that M. Mahcr has also lost by the

little paragraph may save scores of
dollars.
-e-
F. Peculiar Burgess is a little
more peculiar than usual. Iu last
week's Era he imagines he sees a
huge blood -sucker, fastened on to
some vitals, and that this sucker of
blood and vitals is going to depop
ulate the country unless somebody
chokes it. Is it a case of diseased
imagination consequent upon a se
vere attack of bile, or is it a slippery
chute from unsuccessful Republican
politics into the Democratic slough
of despond?
A TJniou caucus was held in

Mr. and Mrs. Marshall Smith,
of this city, appropriately kept and
celebrated the tenth anniversary of
their marriage, on last Monday
evening. The large company pres
cut was composed of their frieiuls
and neighbors and the presents nu
merous; some valuable, others
unique and expressive of the occa
sion. The refreshments were ex
cellent, and the occasion ono of
pleasure and enjoyment and will
long be remembered by their many
friends.
Andrew Matthis thinks the best
fire-guard that can be made is, after
you have cut your grass for hay, to
take the mower and go round your
premises, making about six swaths
wide, let it stand two or three days
until thoroughly dry, and then burn
it, while the surrounding grass is still
so green that the fire will nol spread.
Mr. Matthis has followed this plan
for six years, aud iu that time has
not lost anything by prairie fire, at
his home place.
G. W. Galley lost by prairie
fire last week about one hundred
and eighty-seven ions of hay. Wil
liam Mead and sons lost by the same
about thirty-seven tons. The lire
which caused this damage was set
out by Charles Distlchorst, r.ml we
learn that for the past two years he
put out fires which burnt the timber
ofG. W. aud Samuel Galley, Phil.
Goodwin and Mrs. Barrow, and es
caped prosecution, but this year
complaint was made against him',
and a hearing had on last Monday
which resulted in the court biuding
him over in the sum of :?200.
As the election approaches it
becomes more and more evident
that the nominees of the Republican
paity of Platte county will be elect
ed. This is owing to the judipious
nominations themselves; lo the
conduct of the campaign by Re
publicans, aud also, as a good Dem
ocrat lately expressed it to us, to
the prevalence of bad counsels in
the Democratic ranks. It is well
known in Pintle county politics that
much depends upon personal solici
tation, and the character of the can
didates. o
Two years ago, when T. C. Ryan
was a candidate for representative,
the Era, the Democratic paper of
this place, had this to say of him:
J,Mr. Ryan is a man of high moral
character, of fine address and whose
abilities are acknowledged by all
who know him. The Republicans
arc to be commended for presenting
to the people of this county for their
suffrages a candidate whose business
standing as a business man, as a
scholar, and as a polished social
gentleman, is of the highest order:?
That was true, then, and is yet, aud,
being from a Democratic source
certainly worthy of Democratic
credence,

An intelligent man who is engag
ed in buying beef cattle, travels
from place to place on that business
and notices the different establish
ments that he visits through the
country, ought to know, and does
know a good meat market, when he
sees it. W. Meyers, who is well
known in this community, is a gen
tleman of this kind, and he declares
that in his travels he has not found
a market so well kept and so well
supplied, anywhere this side of
Omaha, as that kept by Messrs.
Shotwell Ss Randall of this place.
These gentlemen have but lately
established themselves in the busi
ness here, and this is certainly a

Our Richland Letter.
Richland, Oct. 26, 78.
Dear Joukxal: I have terrible
disasters to chronicle around us,
which happened on Sunday last, the
20th inst. About 10:30 a. m., a fire
started from Bell's woodpile on the
Theinhnrdt farm, ran through the
trees aud started north to Gus
Kluck's farm, burning up the hay
and large woodpile there, it then
went on and burnt up n. Kluck's
granary, stable, hay and machinery,
leaving only the house, (Mr. Kluck
was unfortunately absent in Schuy
ler at the time), the fire then weut
on to the creek, burning out several
more, and when the wiud changed
to the north, it came back, burned
out machincry,graiu, granary, stable,
corral and one horse belonging to
J. McDonald, also considerable
grain for Arthur Spurrell, all the
small grain for Captain Brown, and
narrowly missed burning out Geo.
Lawrence. A lire from tho west,
burnt grain, two calves and a buggy
for E. C. Barnes, also all of Mr. L.
Burns's feed, stabling, &c, leaving
the house and some wheat stacks,
the corrals, part of hay, and most of
the grain stacks belonging to M.
.Burke. Captain F. Barnholdt, had
a narrow escape, his safety depended
on a broken match which enabled
him to set a back fire, aud assisted
by N. B. Woods lit successfully
fought the danger. Your corres
pondent escaped damage by the gal
lant exertions of Captain Bornholdt
and N. B. Woods, and Mr. CKohlcr
did some service
gentlemen also
The two former
did considerable
work in saving the houso of Gus
Kluck, as did also C. F. Brown.
Much sympathy is felt for Captain
Brown's loss, as ho was so active iu
helping his neighbors. No ordinary
fire-break seemed of any use against
so strong a wind, and it is reported
the fire jumped fron 50 to GO feet. 1
would say I learnt that dry earth is
a capital thing to put out fire, and
a good shovel full goe3 a long way.
The day will long he remembered,
and much distress will necessarily
ensue here.
I notice an article in your paper
of this week in which a heavy tax
payer complains of a dance being
held iu the school liotisc aud while
his rematks may be correct, I think
it somewhat inconsistent that the
gentleman gave his two eldest
daughters permission to attend said
dunce.
R. McKonzic has threshed this
week, averaging to the acre, of oats
4.5 bushels, of wheat from 20 to 25,
of flax from 16 to 17 and from one-
half au acre he had 140 bushels of
