ing dropped a boy who was assist
ing him in the exhibition, aud he
fell sixty feet. Tho boy will not
recover from his injuries.
Two patients from the hospital for
the inpane at Lincoln escaped on the

of the unfortunate inmates.
Ax old German couple from the

The Times says that the Exposi
tion building at Chicago "is infested
by 'mashers' of both sexes and all
grades of civilization. Even the
remotest rural "decstricts" contrib
ute recruits to this gallant army. It
is a grand and extensive pic-uic for
this sort."
The time, let us believe, is in the
near future when railroads will be
built where there is business suf
ficient to justify the investment,
and will be conducted on the basis
of the general welfare coupled with
a reasonable remuneration to the
stockholders.
JosEnt Banks shot and killed
George Graham and wounded Geo.
"W. Green and a man named Ander
son, the other day at Council Bluffs.

could not weather the storm.

ister of the Christian Union church,
was beaten to death the other day
by John Sharp, his son-in-law.
Sharp was beating his wife and
Benjamin interfered. Sharp turned

then kicked him in the stomach.
The Supreme Court on the 9th

cither count the vote or show cause
why the vote shall not be counted.
The north span, 125 feet, of the
bridge across the Kansas river at
Lawrence, gave way the other day
under the weight of a drove of cat
tle, precipitating them into the river,
killing many and wounding others.
Two men in a wagon who jumped
from the falling bridge, struck the
rocks below, and were badly in
jured. A bolt in the Democratic State
convention in New York resulted in
tho nomination of a second ticket.
Tho regulars nominate Lucius Rob
inson for governor, and the Tam
mauy bolters nominate John Kcllcy,

guage, that it was time he should be
removed from office. -

Myron "Wheeler, a son of Maj.
Wheeler of Plattsraouth, Neb., last
wek shot and dangerously wound
ed n man by the name of Mr. Schlo
gal. Young "Wheeler, tho night
before, thought he heard burglars
about the house, aud his father
being absent at Ltncolu, the lad con
cluded he would be ready to meet

approached the house and knocked
atthe door,and MyroOjSupposing birn
to be a burglar, fired at him, (he
fibot takiug effect in the left sbouj-l

Why we especially make mention
of the fact that Thos. H. Cavanaugh,
of Salina, Kausas, exhibited his
herd of Hcrefords, at the State fair
at Lincoln, is that we believe the
stockmen of Nebraska have not
turned their attention particularly to
the many good points contained iu
this class of stock. The reports
from our recent fair agree that
there never has been a better class
of stock exhibited in the state than
at the late fair. To show in what
light the stock of Mr. Cavanaugh
was held at the State fair we learn
that all of his stock on exhibition
were awarded first premiums. It is
stated that Mr.Cavanaugh's attracted
much attention at the fair, on ac
count of their great beauty and
merit.
The 3'eliffh U. P. Scheme.
Oakdale, Sept. 11, 1879.
Ed. Journal: I was somewhat
amused in reading an extract in the
Journal last evening of a letter
from Neligh stating that the U. P.
had hired and were hiring all the
teams and men they could get, to
commence grauiug to Battle Creek.
There is about as much truth in that
as there is in their building from
Columbus. The surveyors have
surveyed up the valley to this place
aud up (he Elkhorn as far as they
can go before cold weather, and, as
the contractor at work at Scully's
bridge told one of our citizens, they
did not intend to come to Antelope
cnunty unless they were obliged to.
Oakdale precinct votes on the third
of October to give the E. V. R. R.
ten thousand dollars to come to this
place, and there is no doubt but the
bonds will carry, if outsiders will
keep away from us. The Neligh
people or a portion of them are do
ing all they can to defeat them, even
sending men to speak in the differ
ent school districts, against the
bonds. It would look a little more
like men if they would let our af
fairs alone, and attend to their own
business.
Yours, &c., II.
If our correspondent thinks that
the Journal meant to convey the
idea that the Union Pacific were
about to construct a line of road
direct from Columbus to Neligh, or
anywhere else, for that matter, just
now or in the very near future, he is
mistaken. If they construct the
road referred to by "II" it will prob
ably be from some point on the
Jackson extension, in a direct line
between Columbus and Neligh. This
we believe, and also further that
Columbus will find herself abund
antly able and exceedingly willing
to make the most of any and every
scheme of railroad that comes this
way, or points in this direction.
That is just the position she is in.
She has not consented to be bound,
hand or foot, and led captive, but
out of that which was, perhaps, in
tended as an injury to her, will be
able to reap lasting benefit.
Concerning any local strife there
may be between Oakdale and Ne
ligh, we have nothing to say, it is
none of our affair. We published
the words of a man whom we re
garded as truthful, and relating to a
subject which is certainly of gen
eral interest.

from thejr mouth and ears. Imme

arrived in the city with a party of
about fifty men from southern Indi

These men are all well-to-do and
some of them arc quite well oil, and
will prove a valuable acquisition to
Nebraska. This evening about fifty
more arrived in the city, and then
proceed to various sections of the
State to prospect and purchase lands.
This is the tirst excursion of the kind
from Indiana, and it will be fol
lowed by several others betwen now
and spring. Nebraska immigration
is now being quite generally agita'cd

right to manage and control her own
affairs without intermeddling on the
part of the Federal Government;
and we hereby denounce all inter

warranted by the constitution, aud
subversive of the fundamental rights
of the people.
