The Democrats of "Platte county
owo their defeat, this election, iu
part, to disaffection in their ranks,

On Sunday next, Xov. 17h,
the Right Rcv'd Catholic Bishop
O'Connor will bo here to dedicate

"A By all odds the best place to

He keeps onlythc bcst.qunlilicH of

tinually receiving the very Best
Michigan Cider, which he sells by
the barrel or gallon. Winter apples

Those who have not got their
corn husked, had better be about it,
as we may have cold, wet-weather
and perhaps deep snows, in which
case a great deal of corn will be lost,
because tho severe winds in summer
blew down considerable of it, which
is now flat on the ground.
Rev. Sherman conducted the
religious services at the. Congrega
tional church last Sabbath aud de
livered a very interesting discourse
indeed, on the subject of Faith and
Works, shedding new light upon
that theme, which to the Bible stu
dent, at least, it must be admitted,
had some dark shades.
Those who arc looking to the
future of the Platte county Demo
cracy for their living, would better
make a note of the element that act
ed somewhat independently in this
campaign. Whether or not they
hold the 'balance of power," those
who wish for success cannot afford
to pass them by without consulta
tion. William Milton, a young man
who lived just over the line in Ham
ilton county, was killed lately by
the accidental discharge of a shot
gun. It appears that he had " fired
off" one barrel at a jack-rabbity and
while reloading it the other barrel
went off and he received the charge
of shot iu his face and head, kill
ing him iustautly. Osceola Jiecord.
On Friday last a team became
frightened at the cars-near the depot
and started down Platte street for
the river, with the tongue of the
wagon on tho ground, and the
driver in the wagon. The position
was one of danger, but the driver,
with the coolness of a general, ran
the team into the bank below the
Xebraska House aud by splintering
the tongue to kindling wood, saved
the wagon, horse aud himself.
It is not yet determined where
the riew Congregational church is to
be located. The committee appoint
ed to liud a suitable site is at work,
nnd reports progress. tA subscrip
tion is soon to be circulated and the
citizens generally asked to contrib
ute. It is certainly time the society
had a better-looking aud morecom
modions building than the one now
occupied.
The reason assigned by""closo
observers for the defeat of Gibson
as assessor of this precinct is that
he didn't live in or near tho city;
that Mr. Henry's largo vote for
commissioner was owing to the fact
that he lives iu the city. Iu politics,
we dislike to sec geographical lines
drawn, and such contests are especi
ally disagreeable and unprofitable
iu county affairs.
The first quarterly meeting for
Columbus charge will be held at
the M. E. Church this city, Tuesday,
Wednesday, and Thursday, Decem
ber 3d, 4th nnd 5th, 1878. Preach
ing every evening during the niect
iug. Dr. Slaughter will be present
and conduct tho meetings. All are
cordially invited.
J. O. A. Fleharty.
- Preacher in f"hnrre.
From hero Bishop O'Connor
will go to Stearns Prairie, services
Tuesday at 9J a. m., and St. An
thony's Wednesday, same time; at
St. Bernard's Thursday, same hour.
He will return to Columbus on
Friday aud leave Saturday for
David City, for dedication of the
church and giving confirmation on
Sunday. On Monday at the Lux
emburg sctticmeut, Butler county.
School commenced at the new
St. Francis school-house, Monday,
Xov. 4th, attendance, so far, about
80, with more expected ; the number
will doubtless reach one hundred in
a short time all of them from the
city. The Dormitory is now ready
for occupatiou, and boarders will
be taken hereafter. Whenever there
are a sufficient number of pupils to
justify it, Algebra aud Book-keeping
will be taught.
The "citizen of the whip," who
bet ten dollars with tho citizen of
"law and land" that Clarkson would
be elected, has won his mouey, even
if Butler county don't happen to be
iu this senatorial district, and now
the joke aud laugh como in on the
other side. We would advise dem
ocratic politicians hereafter not to
wager their 11101103 ou the result of
elections with a certain republican
stock dealer, unless they expect to
get scooped.
In the multitude of counsel
there is wisdom, and we suggest to
those of our readers who have any
thing totofler iu tho wny-of legisla
tion that they communicate with
D. C. Lovcland and T. C. Ryan of
this city, representatives, and John
T. Clarkson of Schuyler, senator.
They arc the people's chosen agents
iu the goueral assembly, for the
enactment of laws, and you will do
them a favor b' making known
your wants.
Hon. II. T. Snoerry was in the
city one day last week, after elec
tion, and didn't seem to be in a
good humor towards the Journal.
He thinks we did him injustice in
an article republished froth the
David City HcpuhUcan. We will
do ourselves the justice to say here
that we never thought of Mr. Spocr
ry iu the recent contest, except as
the leader of a forlorn hope, with no
chance of election himself, and very
little power to help his friends on
the ticket. He may think that he
holds the balance of power in this
count (which, no doubt, isJiis am
bition), but man' a man has been
mistaken in his calculations, and so
may Hon. Henry T.
The Democrats of Platte county
would like to be possessed of the
secret of Republican success this
fall. A part of it they can guess,
but for all' the facts they cannot ac
count in this way, and would faiu
have an explanation. A continuous
effort, up to the elections next fall,
will doubtless be made by the Dem
crats of old Platte to regain their
lost ground, and Republicans if they
would continue to succeed must
keep watch on every movement of
their political adversary, and act
accordingly. For once, Republicans
of Platte have applied tho method
of successful campaigning, aud, if
they continue in the same course
there is no apparent reason why
they should ever be less successful.
O. P. Reed and family, returned
from their southern trip on Satur
day last. They had a very pleasant
visit at Pawnee, Marybville and
Crete, at the latter place stopping
with Ben. Collinsworth formerly
of Columbus. O. P. speaksin the
highest terms of the country thro'
which they passed, and brought
with him specimens of excellent
apples raised at Centjreville, Lan
caster Co., by John W. Prey, for 21
years a resident there. .Mn, Prey
says he conld have had fruitAwlve
years ago as well as now. He has
'an apple orchard three years old
that is bearing some. The speci
mens Mr. Reed left with us are
splendid, luscious fruit. In the
southern part of this State apples
are selling at 75 cents a bushel, aud
Xebraska - grown are regarded
equally as good as Michigan. The
corn between Crete and the south
ern Hue is the best Mr. R. ever saw
in the west. Mr. Reed lost one of
his horses ou the trip and paid out
a considerable doctor's .bill his loss
being $175. -'"

Besides-the vote given in the table
of tho official canvass, found else
where, we make the following ad
ditions : Jas. Baird had one vote
forgov. In Woodvillo precinct ; Fr
J. Mead, one for Licnt. Gov. in
Pleasant Valley; Benj. J.. Palmer,
one iu tho same precinct for Scc'y
of State ; Juo. Wise, one in Sherman
for representative, aud S. L. Barrett,
one vote for representative. It will
be noticed by the table that Ger
hold's vote was heaviest in Butler
precinct, where very special work
was put iu shortly before, and on
election day; next in his own pre
cinct, Bismark, then in Columbus.
While wo believe it is a fact that
heretofore the Republicans of Platte
have never elected a commissioner,
except when two Democrats wore
running, it is believed by some that
Wiso's majority would have been
greater, if 3dr. Gerhold had been out
of the field. We are not prepared
to say so much, however: .
It is pretty difficult, perhaps im
possible, exactly to answer the ques
tion from the table, Is Platte county
Republican, and how much? for
the reason that a number of Demo
crats who wished to teach the party
generals a bit of practical wisdom,
voted the "clean" Republican ticket.
It is a little singular, however, that
for Auditor and Treasurer, concern
ing whom there was no special
effort, one way or the other, the
votes in all the precincts run exactly
parallel, and of course, the majori
ties in the county are tho same
fourteen republican. The voto on
Congressman contingent shows
about the same state of facts ; and
that on Att'y Gen. and also Com. ot
Lands, &c, very nearly the same.
Judging by the returns alone, it
would seem that Platte county is,
politically, republican, by about
fourteen.
We have neglected to mention
the public meeting held on the even
ing of the 24th nit., to consider the
practicability of erecting a Sisters'
Hospital in Columbus. Dr. Bone
steel acted as chairman, and W. X.
Hensloy as secretary. Quite a num
ber of business men were present
and approved of the movement. The
Mother Superioress of the Sisters of
the Poor of St. Francis, of Olpc,
Germany, was present, accompanied
by a'u otljer Sister. After exchang
ing views it was determined to go
forward with the work. A com
mittee of citizens for the purpose of
raising funds, was appointed, con
sisting of J. G. Iliggins, L. Gcrrard,
T. C. Ryan, J. P. Becker and C. A.
Spcice. Two Sisters aro expected
this week to begin the work of so
liciting, also to begin hospital work,
in a small way, at once. The gener
al public is pretty well acquainted
with the objects and methods ofw
these hospitals, which have the un
qualified approval of intelligent
men of every religious-persuasion.
Those patients who are able to do
so are expected-to pay the rcasona-
blc expense of their care and medi
cal treatment, but all comers arc
cared for, irrespective of race, con
dition or religion. The Sisters re
ceive no salary, but are supported
by charitable coutiibutions, their
whole thought and life being de-,
voted to the care of the sick. It
will be seen at a glance why such an
institution will bo of benefit to Co
lumbus, and to Central Nebraska,
and we shall not be at all surprised
to sec within the next year, a Sister
Hospital, iu full operation here, and
receiving the hearty co-opcralion'of
the public.
Messrs. Schaup & Glade, of
Polk county, living about four miles
directly southeast from this city
havo been making' valuable im
provements on, (heir premises. Mr.
McCauley, the carpenter employed,
lias put' up a beautiful dwelling
house, at a cost of $1,800 or $2,000.
Mr. McCauley is a first-class work
man, and finished this building iu
good style and taste. They have
also erected what will be known as
the " Platie Valley Mill." It is sup
plied with water from Clear Greek,
which never freeze!?, and if at any
time more water is required, it is
so arranged that it can be supplied
from tho Platte river. The mill
wright work was done "by J. R.
Reynold?, and the entire machinery,
with two run of stone, is set to
work by power from a Turbine
wheel, and was set in motion last
Friday with the happiest results.-as
every department moved as .smooths
Iy as the workings of a good clock',
and performing excellent work.
This mill will be of incalculable
value tothc. South Platte farmers,
and will, doubtless, reccivo their
patronage, provided- they ;db "good
work and. conduct their busine.-s
fairly and honestly and according
to law.

On Saturday evening last Mr.
Wm Eimers, who. receutlyTlocated
in tliis city in the dry-goods and
grocery business, was tendered a
serenade by the members of the
brass band, the band "boys" recog
niziug in him an experienced musi
cian, and one who will strengthen
their organization by becoming a
member. After playing a lively
quickstep outside at his dwelling
house, the gentleman made his ap
pearance aud invited the "boys" to
his elegantly-furnished rooms above,
where refreshments were served by
his estimable lady. Two hours
were very pleasantly spent in con
versing, interspersed with music,
both vocal and instrumental, Mr.
Eimers eldest son being a very fair
performer at the piano, after which
the members of the band" retired,"
all agreeing that they had 'passed a
very pleasant evening with 3fr.
Eimers and his f8milv.
Important Decision., .
"Byron Millett, Esq., who "was in"
atteudance at the late session of the
Supreme Court, gives us the follow
ing syllabus of a decision rendered
by. Chief Justice Maxwell,, in tho
case of Sessions & Carson, v. Irwin,
opinion tiled Oct. 18th :
Appraisers selected by a sheriff' to
appraise real estate levied upon by
him, act judicially iu making the
appraisement, and it is their duty to
ascertain tho actual amount due
upon liens and incumbrances upon
such real estate.
And they must specifically enum
erate the liens and encumbrances
which they fiud subsisting against
such real estate.
Tax deeds arc not liens or incum
brances within the meaning of the
statute. A party claiming under
such deeds holds adversely, aud
must rely upon his title.

This gentleman, who is one of the
greatest workers in the temperance
cause that ever appeared before
A'tne'rican audiences, will arrive in
Columbus Monday next and begin
his labors on Tuesday, spending
some eijjht or ten days with us. He
never fails to enlist with him the
temperance friends of every shade
and degree of opinion, and to engage
them in earnest work- against -the
common enemy. We have read of
his successes at Lincoln, Omaha and
oilier places in the State, and know
that the friends of the temperance
cause in Columbus will be glad to
hear him. Let every friend turn
out to the meetings.

The Liver is the imperial organ of
the whole human system, as it con-,
trols the life, health and happiness
of man. Wheu it is disturbed in its
proper action, all kinds of ailments
arc the natural result. The diges
tion of food, the movements of the
heart and blood, the action of the
brain and nervous system, are all
immediately connected with the
workings of the Liver. It has been
successfully proved that Green's
August Flower is unequalled in
curing all persons afflicted with
Dyspepsia or Liver Complaint, and
all the uamerons symptoms that
result from an unhealthy condition of
the Liver and Stomach. Sampie
bodies to try, 10 cents. Positively
sold in nl! town3 on the Western
Continent. Thrco doses will prove
that it h just what you want. Sold
