Game called at 5 o'clock. Judge Iiussell, this afternoon ap pointed J. T. Marshall administrator of the estate of Alexander Johnson deceived, of Weeping Water precinct. .V canary bird escaped from the house of Kev. M. A. Hampton last even ing. Anyone capturing the bird and delivering it to Mr. Hampton, will be ronfering n great favor. Tiie B. & M. band will accompany tlie democrats on their lonely journey to the sister town, Weeping Water from here. We beiieye they will reed them im the return trip to cheer them up. Two boy base ball clubs played a fcane yesterday afternoon on "Fitz's for ty." The Light Foot club succeeded in defeating the Sw ift club known as the Cannon Balls, by & -core of 40 to 37. The following geutlemeu jycre 'n st ailed in office at the meeting of En campment No. 3, I. O. O. F. lost night: Sol Levi, C. P.; Jame3 P. Antill, S. W.; L. Davis, J. W.; J. C. Eikeubary, I J. P. Mrs. Twiss, who went to Omaha a few days ago to have her eye doctered, had an operation performed yesterday which proved to bo very painful but she has cams through all right. The doctor has been successful in his treatment. Mr. Lou. Craig, a young man who was for a long time in the employ of the li. fc M. here in their paint shop, is at present working in Lincoln and has gain ed for himself a wide reputation at that place as a first-class painter. He has se cured the contract of painting all their street cars. Mr. Geo. Bocck who was so serious ly injured the other day by falling from a windmill, is not expected to recover for several months it he recovers at all. Upsides having two broken brilw and be ing injured internally he received a deep gash on the side of his head extending from his mouth to his ear. This afternoon the Jetter & Young club, of Omaha, will meet the Platts mouth club on the base ball ground west . r i. - : ti . i . , ui iiic i ucjr are rejjoneu in be a strong cluli aud it is thought a first class frame will be played. A full report of tne game with a complete score will ap pear in the Herald of Monday. Great anticipations are being inter- tamed by some of the loud democrats for their rally which is to be held at ceping Water tonight, and it is hoped by the republicans that their success at this meeting will be a little more marked than it has been at previous meetings, in order that all their hoped may net be dashed to the ground. 'The Hon. J, Ster ling Morton, their great orator, will be on hand and assist the would-be oritors of this vicinity. The democrats here claim that the city will be deserted when their club leaves for Weeping Water, but we are sorry some of them cannot stay to see the improvement it will make. Two ball nines consisting of engin eers and fireman, held down the diamond on the old fair ground yesterday after noon. Judging by the score and the number of excellent plays, it proved to be the event of the season. The hard hitting and the sly base stealing on both sides was what swelled the score. The two nines, with Messrs. Itogers and Dill as captains, were efficiently managed, and they deserve great credit for their work. The only man who raised objections to the game in any way was Mr. Curtis, who complained of a sore arm and a severe headaehe before the game was finished. The score stood 34 to y. in favor of Rogers' nine at the end of the third in ning when the game was called on ac count of darkness. Messrs. ClausBrekenfeld and George Weid man have purchased the hardware business of Mr. J. R. Cox and will take possession about the first of next month. Mr. Cox, we are sorry to learn, has made up his mind to leave the city, and it is his intention to go to Denver, shortly. We arc sorry to lose such a valuable citizen as Mr. Cox, but we wish him and his family every success in their future home. With his prosperity while here, he lias Agisted the city to a considerable extent, .1 i i : ,i r i - it mm nu uiways guinea ior uimsei among the 1'Iattsmoutli people an honorable re' putation. When they leave the city, we extend to them our beet wishes and also in behalf of many of the citizens, a fond farewell. Messrs. Brekcnfeld and Weid man, who are to be the new firm, are both ' f - rMf'i : 1 r "! The Milk In The Cocoanut. The following article from Fred Nye is commended to all working men who have an interest in the future of the la boring classes of America. It contains the proposition, the argument and the logical conclusion, final and irrefutable, upon the great question submitted to the people of the United States. With, not a theory, but the actual condition of the people of Great Britain, under the indus trial system, which the doctrinaires of the free trade party and their English preceptors, insist upon introuuctmg m this country placed before us can there be a question as to the proper cause of the workingmau of America? Can it be pos sible that he would, by any possibility of an experiment,, entail the hard lot of his English brother upon the generations yet to come in tins country? Dues he want his children to sink to the social level of the English slave? If he does, the democratic party stands ready to lead the way and rivet the chains upon their limbs. Mr. Nye's article is especially commended to our neighbors who are thinking of experimenting by a change from the present industrial system to anoiner. j o our way or tuinking it is the strongest presentation of the present question that can be made and from the force of which, there is no escape: ENGLAND. Across the water 13 starving, misgov erned England: She is the 'mother'" country who never had a child that she did not attempt to work to death. Ire land, America, India, Scotland the sys tem has always been the same. England has given birth to many great men. One ot them was Charles Dickens, who wrote an immortal book called 'Oliver Twist." In that story we read of a man of the name of Fagin a thief of the tyrannical sort, who levied outrageous tribute upon the labor and character of everything in nocent that came under his malevolent influence. Unconsciously Charles Dick eus, in the character of Fagin, personal ized his country. Great Britain has been the Fagin of nations for several centuries. bhG Les Jived upon plunder. At home she has nursed uriiigrivcy and starved poverty. She forced Warreo J fastings and his system of brigandage upon India, Mpjnni upon China, free trade and desti tution upou trpmd. With her naval and military might sue jiv.yght to subject jLUc American colonies to impose jupon them the policy of "taxation without representation," "The polojiies threw all the strenght of their life againsf her and conquered. But England hstt pever for getten. When we were fighting ngi.iat rebellion, she helped the rebels. When we were sacrificing everything to free the slave, she reached oyt a friendly hand to the master and overseer, fehe I.as always been against us against liberty. She has always had one cardinal pricipal "the extremity other nations is the opportunity of England." Fagin lived a wretched life and died a horrible and ignominious death. His policy w.'s wrong. It was a constant de nial of the rights of man and the com mands of God. He could not prosper. Th3 greater the energy of iniquity the more complete the ruin. The country which Fagin personified has been equally unsuccessful. It has had temporary per iods of fortune, such ns Fj.gin had when 1 ;n : 1 i- '. t.n.vi uii , ci uuu ins companions wers lucky in their enforced labor of pillage but the irresistible tendency has been to ward a miserable cad, Over one million of the inhabitants of the United Kingdom are paupers.
