Uiittee of the buard of tntile upon the
question of forming a joint Block roni
pany with Ihe invent.ir for the manu
facture of the Thompson flevaled
chalis. removes whnlever doubts rnuy
have nrisen in the mind of any citizen
as to the feasibility of the undertake
ing aul Its ultimate result. The
Herald believes it is a golden oppor
tunity for i'lattsinoulli, for the city lis
u city and for every individual prop
erty holder therein, who is interested
in the fu'.ure growth and prosperity
of riattsmouth. This committee,
named from the membership of the
board are business men of the eiiy
who poHscsi the confidence of till, aud
tlu-ir report i hIxivu qucbtioti. They
have examined nil the juijhtm from
the patenlM up, all correspondence
and all tli" onlcru :tlre:ili- in for Iho
t haiiH, and they know whereof they
kii'ak; the are unanimous in recom
mending the project ax woith the at
tention and cordial support of the
citizen unl the cnpitalitM.
The ijticHtiuu now that J'hitttuuoiith
has to net tic for itself i, will it sie.o
the opporl unity for bnilding' ti its
elf, or will the project go by default ?
It is a question fraught with unusual
interest, and tlemumls immediate at
tention. It li useless for us to urjo
thU matter upon the public; every
one reeoiMiizi-! the need I'latUmouth
has for nianulact uriiiic institutions.

aud live in the city, increasing ttade
iu all departments and giving- a jitr-
maueucy to every department of trade
that no city without ma nnluct uriii";

The llf.KALU hopes to note the laet

stock has been subscribed for the

Olirer Goldsmith's Beautiful Cmneily
" She Stoops to Conquer."
Dr. Oliver Goldsmith, the author of
this admirable comedy, has left one of
the few, the immortal names that are
not born to die." His well earned
reputation will be as extended and
lasting as that of the language he has
enriched and adorned, and oue of his
best plays She Stoops to Conquer
will bear unstinted praise for many
years to come. In this piece he gives
us characters such as live and move
upon the stage of life.
It was Goldsmith privilege to live
when literature was adornwd by such
a galaxy of glorious names, that has
never been equalled in any time, and
to surpass a' most every one was the
fortunate !oi of the author of "She
Stoops to Conquer.". The leading
characters have always been taken
with avidity by the great comedians
of both hemispheres. The action and
steady go of this piece never lacks en
thusiasm, and from first to last has in
cidents that can only be seen to be ap
preciated. The Herald desires to call the at
tention of the public to the fact that
us job department has a Hue or ma-
terial for poster and show printing
work that is not excelled if equaled in
the state. In every kind of poster
work from full sheet work down to
the simplest dodger, this office has
the material to turn out a quality of
work that is duplicated with difficulty.
In the line of sale bills our work is
first class and attractive; parties de
siring work of any kind in this line,
either plain or colors, on auy color or
quality of paper, will find that with
our variety aud attractive type faces
we furnish work that not only gives
satisfaction but brings the advertiser
the best results.
Grand Inland's new opera house
will be seated with Architect Thomp
son's uew chairs, aud they will prove
there, as here, entirely satisfactory.
Stock men are shipping a number of
cars cf hogs daily from this point, and
prices this week have ruled about as
quotedlast week.
Now comes the lobby homeward
with the declaration to friends that
they have been for tLe successful man
first, last, aud all the time.

The hotel business of Plattsmouth
has kept pace completely with her oih
rapid strides toward metropolitan im
portance. Only a few ye trs ago Mr.
Gregory, the proprietor of the old
Saunders house, claimed he was un
able to make any money by keeping a
firstclass hotel, as the town would not
support it. No v we have the Perkins
house, with more than double the
room, kept in nice shape, and liberally
patronized ; the City .hotel with almost
the former capacity of the Sauuders
is nicely arranged and very profitably
managed by Mr. Goos, the proprietor.
Sheriff Hyers had quite a tussle Fri
day taking a woman out of the court
house; it seems her son had been
charged with stealing a gun of Henry
Mertens, he being a perfect insignia
of abject poverty, the judge's heart
melted toward him sa he was only
fined SI, and compelled to restore the
gun. While he was hunting up the Si
his inother cam&in and was so loud
and abusive in her denunciation of
the court that she had" to be removed.
She rtsisted strenuously, but it was
no use, the dignity of the court had to
be sustained.

Oa Monday 1 ulkhe f unsly o. bkou-
nmU had Prof. - DritaiitiioHu arresieil
for assault and b.itt', occasioned
by a good aud well de erve I chas
tieinent that a boy of the Skounial
family received from the principal.
Tho case was up for trial at tho cost
mill, uud attracted a good deal of at
tention, almost all Iho leaclmr. or Ihe
city being present, aud active in sym
pathy with tho principal. Tho case
was prosecuted by S. P. Vanatta, aud
Sullivau & Wooley appearoJ for the
defense. The trial, us a whole, beg
gars description, aud word descrip
tive of the event a.e wholly without
the bounds of the dictiouary. The
counsel for prosecution aud the de
fendant were the greater part of the
timeout of humor, and the uproar oc
casioned by the two angry meu was
loud uud prolonged, aud the excite
ment iu the room would rise to 111
Fahrenheit, when Vh" head centre of
the cost mill would shriek out iu for
cible if not olegant language to "dry
nil" when order sufficient so one
could hear a brick wall fall, would
be observed for Hie lime being. The
case was conducted iu the highefct
art of pettifogging; its equal has ncl-
doin, if ever, beeu excelled ou the
American continent; counsel for the
prosecution, to all appearames, saw
Ihe advantage he might make through
the anger of the defense, and it was
very ireeiy useu, tne ueieuuaui,
not possibly realizing that he wa9
putting a club in tho enemy's hand.
This fiasco, and uucalled for trial
terminated, by this particular null of
justice grinding out a fine of tivo dol
lars and costs for Ihe defense, who ap
peals the case to the district court:
The evidence adduced iu brief is
this: Last Friday after school was
dismissed, an uproar arose on the
playground, and a light was iu prog
ress. The principal went out on the
grounds, and captured the belligtr-
auts, takiug the Skounial boy into
his room, tsking a haeel switch the
size of a man's little linger aud whip
ped the boy across the shoulicrs, the
janitor of the building witnessing the
punishment. The switch broke, and
the pieces were present ut the trial.
The boy's back was alo exhibited, a
number of red lines were visible
across the shoulders and a bruise up
one elbow, which looked like Lie re
sult of a coasting fall was ail. The
marks on the back were not serious
in appearance, and were not so re
garded by testimony; counsel for
the pros'jctitiou, during au elaborate
dissertation of a medical nature, rub
bing his hand over ihe injured place
with iinpuuiiy.
It is a perlectly sale asrcniou to
say that hundreds of more severe
punishments are administered iu
public schools daily, and passed as
only necessary discipline iu schools,
but the hue and costs were imposed as
above stated.
It will be perceived that wo are
not in active sympathy with the pros-
ecu;ion. and to the coutray, we be
lieve it uucaded for; that it will only
result iu injury, that it is a blow at
proper discipline in public schools,
and that it works to the disadvantage
of the public by destroying law aud
good govern men t in the schoo's.
without which, any school were bet
ter uutaught. If pupils will persist
in breaking rules to the injury of the
schools, the people expect them to be
punished; teachers of experience
know this, and the unanimity with
which the teachers uphold Professor
Drummoud is to be commended; and
the higher court will, if we mistake
not, set aside the verdict of the cost
mill.

The sheriff of Wahoo made a raid
on Stove Creek Tuesday in search of it
horse thief. After some very strate
gic movements he succeeded iu arrest
ing a boy by the name of -Frank Wil
liams ; notwithstanding Frank ottered
to furnish positive proof that lie was
in Elmwood precinct at the time the
horse was stolen, and during the whole
of that week, he was taken io AV.ih m
and lodged iu jail. The next morning
the sheriff brought forward two men
to identify the horse thief. They at
first recognized Frank who is only
fifteen to be the desperado of twenty-
five, but on a second and more search
ing gaze, concluded he lo.iked t.-o
youug. Uu the strength ot tins intel
ligent conclusion his Highness, the
sheriff of Saunders (county of W:ilio )
turned Frank loose to get home tht
best way he could; he returned home
Thursday via Weeping Water, swear
ing vengeance on that fell'i.v if he
ever gets to be x sheriff.
Elmwood Alliance is soon to ho!. I
regular nieeling agaiu. A e hear o.'
several alliances throughout the coun
ty going to do likewise. Some of t he-
members are under the impression
that they have forfeited their charter
by not holding regular meetings dur
ing the busy season. We have the of
ficial report of each meeting of our
state alliance, and nothing to that ef
fect is in any consti'ution adopted by
that body. Wre hope members of each
sub-alliance throughout the county
will improve some of ttiese longer ev-
eaings in discussing questions per
taining to their interests as farmers,
and that farmers in neighborhoods
where there i3 no alliance, will organ
ize one. 1J lank applications lor char

ing for a farm in the vicinity of the
Bend. He is well pleased with this

R. G. McFarlaud has been appointed

After going a short distance he fell
