mi this Issue the Journal ar
rives at maturity, and enters
upon the twenty-second year of its
xistence. Duringall these years this
tiaper has with exception of brief
intervals regularly and faithfully
chronicled the news and happenings
in Plutsmouth and Cass county, and
.ias in no small measure contributed
o the welfare and advancement of
lie people ot town and country and to
the com Ku t and enlighten ineut of its
readers, quite a number of whom have
een continuously on its subscription
ti.tt since toe first issue -patient and
steadfast friends. In many house-
.olds in Cuss county the Journal has
Oeen a regular and welcome visitor for
years, where it is considered a reliable
ource of information and as a counsel
lor and friend.
During the past twenty-one years
seveial hands haveguided its editorial
helm, and to the credit of the paper it
can be truthfuhy said that its editorial
course has iuvailably been consistent,
tiotiest. fair and impartial. In season
and out of season the paper has stead
fastly preached the doctrines of
democracy, and has never oeen found
wanting iu support of party men and
measures. It has been a party organ
in the strictest sense, which in a large
uieasure accounts for lack of progress
in a business way.
The country newspaper is indeed
fortunate that readies maturity with
out being overwhelmed by disaster
and misfortune, and the Journal has
been no exception to the general rule,
its career lias been marked with many
ups and downs, but somehow or other
it has always triumphed over its
vicissitudes and alighted on its feet
again, smiling aud ready for business
at the old stand. Its existence has
been threatened many times, but its
resources have always been sufficient
to meet the emergency, which gives
assurance that its liht will continue
to shine.
Probably no one is better qualified
toconsider the entire history of the
Journal in all its details than is the
writer hereof, aud when he loos back
ward Tor twenty-one years it is with
no small degree of pleasure that he is
ci.abled to say ti. at the past year of
the Journal's history has been less
marked by newspaper "grief than
.ias any previous year, and that the
general standing of the paper was
never better, its condition more
Healthy, than at present.
At the beginning of this new year
t:ie Journal extends greetings and
h.st wishes to all its readers, and
hopes that the year now before us will
bring prosperity, advancement and
happiness to all.

From the Ledger.
We have no d'-iire to alarm the
