The Journal at this late date gleefully prints the remark of somebody that Mc Clintic was a horse doctor. E. A. Stopher is a strong man for rep resentative. He and P. S. Barnes In the house will give Cass an able and honora ble representation. R. S. Wilkenson, chairman of the re publican county central committee is in the city today, accompanied by C. D. Clapp of Elmwood. The Journal sticks to the Doreey World-Herald fake notwithstanding Dorsey han proved that he never sent the telegram which it prints. Friend McClintic comes out in a very sensible card in last nights Journal, but it will not avail him much if the crowd down here can hoodoo biru off the tick et. He was a necessity at the county convention, but that necessity no longer exists. L. D. Richards will unquestionably be elected the next governor of Nebraska, and all tie cowardly excuses weak-kneed republicans can give for voting against him, will avail nothing. We personally know prominent democrats in Omaha who will vte for Richards, and they have dollars at stake on prohibition where others have cents. Cottonseed oil is being used to manu facture and cheapen the price of lard. Its use in that direction has rown so that immense fortunes have been made out of the product which greatly cheapen the genuine article with which it comes into direct competition. Congress passed the lard bill at its last session in the interest of pure lard and in the in terest directly and absolutely of every farmer in Nebraska. Yet the democratic party opposed this measure with great force a"nd came near defeating it. Why don't the windy Bryan explain this fact. District Court A motion for a new trial in the case of Baier vs. the M. P. was argued befoie Judge Field this morning. His decisic n was not given.

I It was lenrned last eve ning from au thentic sources that two Omaha prohibi tionists were in Lincoln bust evening making preparations to lay before the supreme court this morning un applica tion for an order of injunction which will be tho means of preventing hundreds and perhaps thousands from voting in Omaha. These gentlemen claim that large numbers of foreign born men have recently taken out naturalization papers at the instance of the "personal libeity league" with the apparent purpose of voting against the prohibitory amend ment, and that the expense of obtaining these papers was paid by the league out of a fund raised for the purpose. The prohibitionists claim that this method of securing voters is illegal nd will ask thn supreme court to restrain all whose papers were so obtained from voting and to restrain election officers from receiving votes for such. They claim, also, that in case the supreme court fails to act and the amendment fails they will contest the election on the ground of "the illegal ity of these votes. The girls of the Presbyterian church will give a Hallow e'eri entertainment at the church Friday evening, Oct. 31st Games Supper 10c. 4t Cotner University Notes Bethany Heights, Lincoln, Neb. (Jet. 27, 1890: Desiring to keep the readers of the Herald pretty well posted with the happenings of Bethany Heights, and for the benefit derived to myself from correspondence, I take the pleasure to write again. Although somewhat 6low of speech perhaps these items as related by myself will be of some interest to at least a few of the reader?. President Dungan is with us again hay ing been absent for nearly three weeks in Des Moines, Iowa, where his family i He brought with him two of his boys but expects to move the rest of his family here as soon as his house is ready to go into, which will be in asftort time. The social given by the Delphian and the Athenian societies last Friday night was a success. There was a joint prjgram given in the chapel by the two societies after which the audience went to the dormitory and feasted on oyster soup and cake to their hearts content. There was present about a hundred students from the State University and a goodly num ber from the Weslyan University. Eyery body seemed to enjoy themselves hugely Saturday afternoon the Cotner boys picked up a nine and went over and played the Weslyan's a game of ball. The score stood fourteen to eleycu in favor of the Weslyan's, but I think the Cotner's did well considering it was their first game and not having practiced any. Prof. Aylsworth preached yesterday morning and evening in the chapel of the university. In the morning he chose text from Philipians 14th chap. Cth verse, in the eyening from Mathew 19th chap. 27th and 38th verses. Prof Ayls worth is vice-president of the institution and Dean of the bible department; he is a good speaker, a splendid good man and is well liked by all who know him. Speaking of cheap people, "Whiskers" of the Journal evidently had himself in mind. A. W. Wright came home yesterday from an extended campaign tour through out the state. He speaks enthusiastically of the outlook for republican success. Dr. B. L Paine, prohibition nominee for governor will deliyer ak address on the amendment at Rockwood hall to morrow eyening, Oct. 20th, to which every one is invited to attend. Eight ten wheeler road engines have been bought by the B, & M, and will come in abeut the first of January, This will be the first engine of the kind on the line. The largest now are eight wheelers. Will Streight went hunting the other davjand as a result of the days work he brought home ne little half grown rab bit. He figured up and discovered that the rabbit had cost him just six dollars and as he could have purchased a larger one for ten cents he will buy his rabbits hereafter on the score of economy.

EE AD And Then Buy A Heme 111 South Paik. Do not be caught jn the delusion ol . many thousands in postponing a home until they can have an expensive one This idea is the devil's trap that catches ' men and women innumerable, who wiU neyer have any at all. The laborer may have, at the close of the clay, to walk er ride farther than is rioirahlc to reach it but when he yets to his destination in ho teutide he will find something, worthy ot being called by that glorious and impassioned, and heaven descended word, "Home." Young married man, as soon as u can buy such a place, even if you have to put on it a mortgage reaching .from base to capstone. The much abused mortgage which is ruin to the reckless man. to one prudent and provident is the brginning of a competency and a fortune, for the reason he will not be Rat ified until he Las paid it off, ond all the household are put on strictest economy until then. Deny yourself all superflui ties and all luxuries until you can suy: "Everything in this honse is mine thaiilr God! every timber, eyery brick everr foot of plumbing, every doorsill." Dt not have children born in a bearding house, and do not yourself bt buried fromonc. Have a place wh re your children can shout and sing aid romp and not be overhaulded for the racket Hnye a kitchen where you can do some thing toward the reformation of evil cookery and the lessening of this nation of despeptics. As Napoleon lost one of his great battles by an attacked of indi gestion, so many men have euch a daily wrestle with the food swallowed that they have no strength left for the battle of life; and though your wife may know how to play all musical instruments and rival a prima dona, she is not well edu cated unless she can boil an Irish potatoe and broil a mutton chop, bince tne die sometimes decides the fate of families and nations. Have a setting room with at least one easy chair, even though you have to take turns at sifting in it, and books out o the public library, or of your own pur chase for the making of your family in telligent, and checker boards and guess ing mntches, with an occassional blind man's bluff, which is of all games mj fayorite.J Rouse up your bomea with al styles of innocent amusement, and gath er up in your children's lives a restrvbr of exuberance that will pour down r freshing streams when life gets parched and the dark days' come and the lights go out and the laughter is smothered in to a sob.
