kimioii K.tiiK Carry the news to
Maxwell, curry the news both fnr and
near thn. Nebraska has a supictne judge
"ttifttV.iows that votes are what counts.
'Vhe pious poet, J. C. H., though of
'rather doubtful color.'t-till he is quite a
rliver fallow, hp Pa'vs L. (4. I Hlil iH'll t
know hi.s God. I'erhapH he wiil ititio
ducu hit own. If he proves to be the
ttimiu ah worshiped, by Kuotts. Khernmit,
Ami Todd, Car. uth and Boon, I am sure
vre'Jl hnv n woithv coon. This animal
jtou nil must remember is the ouejthat i.i
rery bard to kill, but in ure to die at
Louisville. Pray my good fiiends.if
that in the kind of u God he be, then
devil of a God ia he. We can conrat
ulate the people of Nebraska, that in all
tuiuiaa probability thelatn ruling of
Judge Maxwell will be the I fist of its
kind. The new leirinlalure will fix the
)uninea so that there will have to
liviujr man for each vote cmt and some
000 will know ot such person. I'latt
mouth and Omaha will have some trouble
to control the whole state, with the su
preme court with them. I think the
people hive pome right .left.
Now is the time to strike for liberty
equally and fjml tights. No more bul
dozing by our metropolitan cities. We
are able to hold thuu clown and must do
it. Lei them vote bonds on themselves
If thev want to do no. mi l .pav them if
tlievleiip. Farmers have enuUidi to do
to pay their ufu debts.- Let lis take
this tioverumeut out oi" the hands of
robbers and thieves.
The, B- & M., Journal and Omaha Bee
are entitled to no more boodie from the
utate or support from the people; Omaha
and Lincoln should take care of them
d Platt-tn.outh con take charge of the

take care of our guns and let them not
forget it. L. O.
The Methodists of the west side have
organized and hold Sunday School every
Sunday in the brick sclioool house
at Mercertown. Rev. Buckner alao
preaches at the school house every
two weeks at 3 o'clock in the aftcruooon.
It would be a nice arrangement if the
Methodists could get hold of the unfin
ished Presbyterian church and complete
it; it would give them not only a con
venient but r very handsome place of
worship.
