Never put oil until today what you should have done yesterday. Among men as well as animals, all the tricky ones lave small heads. The Journ.il Is now the only weekly paper published In riattsinouth. Thegosslppor is the dirtiest dog that barks hi the back yard of decency. I) not try to get anybody else to hoi p you keep a secret if you want it kept. Another touch of winter makes the w hole world ring up the coal dealer. It never humbles an honest man to apologize for having made a inlstaxe. Evidently the January thaw got sor ry for the Iceman; likewise for the coal dealer. How much more agreeable It would be If others would only see us as we see ourselves. Truth Is stranger than llctlon and a great deal more scarce In some com munities. Chicken thieves have been working among the hen coops and the people are loading their shot guns. Leap year lias gone far enough to gi ve ns.su ranee that most of the girls want to look before they leap. A pointer to scandal mongers: lie member that evil reports like hornets' nests, are go:d things to leavealone. Some people are too anxious tospread a report. They never even wait to learn of lis truthfulness, or otherwise. Sin wrote a note a dozen times Hitfuru 'twas toller I uste. Tlmii copied It must eiirefnllv. Ami slunoil il "Yours In There are several old maids in Piatt s mouth who arc thinking of petitioning Mayor Morgan to olllclally rtcogni.e the leap year law and pronounce it In operation. ' If the marriageable maidens do not grab them a husband this year, in four years from now It may be out of fash Ion for women to woo. So "strike while the iron's hot," girls.

"Jack-the-Kisser" got after a big, fat woman over at Wahoo the ot her night, and she gave him a terrlilc beat ing, since which time he has ceased ofcrations. AVonder if this is what has happened to our "Jack-the-IIug gcr?" riat tsinouth Is particularly well lo cated for manufactories, and we could get several of them, too, if we could correl a few old croakers every time a person comes here to view the situa- tlonand "talk business" with those who have the future prosperity of our city at heart. Keep your gates closed. A citizen In Columbus, Neb., ran against an open gate one dark night recently and hurt himself, and has brought suit against the city for damages to the extent of six thousand dollars. Residents who arc so careless as to leave their gates swinging over the sldewalksafterdark should be held responsible for such ac cidents, and not the city. A Journal reporter asked an old dem ocratic farmer and pioneer citizen ol Cass county, who was in the city the other day, w ho he was for for presi dent, when he rcplier": "1 am for the democratic nominee, whoever that may be." That was the reply of a relia ble democrat, and Just such an one as should come the lips of every true dem oc rat when asked a similar queston. An exchange tells of a young man who had occasion to use the 'phone few evenings since and laid his lighted cigar ina chair, rung the bell, took dow n the receiver and Just as central answered, a friend came In and was about to sit down on the cigar when the young man exclaimed: "Look out, you'll bum your pants!" lie tried hard to explain, and It Is to be Imped that "central" forgave him, for central was In charge of a young lady. It would do most of us a good deal of good to always keep in mind, or to be now and then reminded of It lest we should forget, that when we leave this old town business will continue just the Mine, and witli the exception of a rew close mends, your name Is never mentioned, and people soon forget that there ever wassuch a person. So don't you never think that Plattsmouth can't get along without you- for she can and will -and don't you forget It "How Interesting a character t study 1st lie man In love!" remarked an old bachelor friend of the Journal the other day, who had perhaps been Jilted something less than a dozen times, "he Is docile, kind, tractable and while a trille foolish, yet on the whole he appears at Ids best. His heart Is In time with nature and lie Is filled with lofty Ideals." Now, girls, when you come across a fellow that lias It this bad, nab before he gets out of the notion. Nine Thousand fcr a Foot. The supreme court has decreed that the Hurlington Ilallmad Co. must pay to Leo Krayenbuhl of Merrick county, ir'.i.ooo for the loss of a foot. A buy in Merrick county tirst tlxed the damage at tH.ooo, hut the district court cut this down to 12,0iK) and recently the supreme court cut out JJ,(KK) more. The plaint ilT had his foot cut oil while on a turntable w hich an employe of the railroad had failed to lock. Krayenbuhl is four years of age and was playing on the turntablo with some otlierchildren. Matthew Coring of this city, Is one of the attorneys for the plaintilT in this case, and while a reduction has been made of one-half from the original judgment, yet still it is a great victory over the railroad company In Nebraska, w here they con trol every department of state gov ernment. A Queer Railrond Accident. Hurlington train No. 12 jumped the track at the entrance to the Ashland on Monday evening last at about 7::iO o'clock, killing Michael J. Graybill, engineer on freight train No. 30, who was engaged in oiling his engine. The engine and mall car passed over the frog in safety, but the mail car Jumped the track, tearing a number of bolts from tho track and struck the engine of No. 30. Some of the bolts struck Engineer firayblll In the face. He lived but a few minutes. Several win dows were smashed in the baggage coach. Tart of the coaches on No. 12 left the track. Although the passen gers received a shaking up, no one was seriously injured. The resistance made by the engine of No. 110 perhaps saved No. 12 from going over a steep embank ment into Salt Creek. When it left the track it was near the embank ment. A wreckingcrcw worked several hours to clear the track. Gravbill leaves a wife and two children, who live at Lincoln. He was an old time engineer on the I!. & M. Leap Year Ball. The leap year ball given by the young ladies of l'lattsmouth on Fri day night last Is pronounced by all who attended as a grand success in every particular. This was guaran teed from the start, when it was gen erally known w ho were at the head of the affair. Everything was carried out in a most magnificent manner, the hall was most elegantly and tastefully decorated for the occasion, and the music furnished by the I'armele Thea tre Orchestra was superbly grand. The program was carried out to the letter, much to the credit of the floor managers. In fact all thecommittces deserve credit fortheir untiring efforts in so successfully performing their parts. All hail to the young of riatts inouth, and may they live (if they don't find some charming young man to please them) to enjoy many more like events. Eighty-Six Questions to Answer. The new schedule to bj used by the deputy assessors for the return of the personal property of the people of their districts has cigity-six questions thereon. The questions civer nearly every thing and readies into all classes or business. It touches your building and loan association stock, money in banks or loaned, all book accounts, Judgments, tons of Ice, nursery stock, all kinds of cycles, dogs owned or harbored, type writers, sewing machines and a host of other things too numerous to men tion. All of the questions on the blank? have to be answered and sworn to, and if your statement is false you can be prosecuted for perjury. When the as sessors call around they will get a dif ferent answer from the ones that they have been getting In yeais past, for If you do not answer up promptly and truthfully the law gives the assessor power to add llfty per cent to the value of the property that he llnds or is able to locate, whether given by you or some one else. All of the property is to be returned at its actual value and assessed at one- fifth of the amount returned. Taken to the Asylum. Mrs. Fiankio I. Kichards, who was brought here last week on account of her demented condition, was examined by the Insanity board and declared a proper subject for the asylum. In ac cordanco with the decision of the board the unfortunate lady was con vcyed to the asylum at Lincoln by Miernr .Mciiriue. Nie is the wife ol J. W. Kichards, of South Hend, and the principal witness, s were Mrs. E Leddy, Mrs. Minnie Hunter and Mrs C. Kichards, of the same place. City Editor Green Weds. Oil. Frank E.

Colonel Green the Hub's city editor, and In spite of this he Is a genial and pleasant gent le man, and we feel assured his good judgment served hlin well In the selection of a life companion. The Democrat wishes them well, and If Colonel Green will give us Ids number we'll place Iiim on our exchange list. Kearney Democrat. TO HAVE A CANNING FACTORY A Very Enthusiastic Meeting of Citizens at the Court House. W. L. Langdon, of Council HlulTs, arrived In l'lattsmouth on Friday last to see what our people would do in the way of establlsbinga firstclass canning factory in this city, and in com pany with Mayor Frank J. Morgan, he visited most of tho business men and others interested in such a move. fter receiving a most favorable ex pression for all It was decided to take immediate steps in that direction, consequently it was understood that a meeting of those interested would be held at the court house that evening; So far as numbers were concerned for such very short notice, it was quite respectable. Mayor Morgan was made chairman, and A. W. Atwood acted as secretary. Mr. Langdon was intro duced to the audience by the chairman, who submitted tils proposition, which was about as follows: If tho citizens would furnish him a'slte upon which to erect a canning factory, with a sidetrack to same, and also furnish him 1,500 acres ofsweet corn this year ho would erect upon such a Bite one two story brick building, 80x100 feet, a two story frame building, 50x100 feet; a corn shed, 00x150 feet, and a brick toiler room, 10x24 feet. The factory will bo equipped with the latest im proved (new) machinery, with 'a capacity of 80,000 cans perday,and will furnish employment to 250 persons during the canning season. The build ings and machinery will cost abouc 75,000. One bushel ;ofcd will plant five acres of ground, and the yield will be about four tons to the acre, for which he will pay $5 per ton. The reason he desires to furnish the seed, Is simply because It Is the kind gener ally used for canning purposes. This corn, as we understand it, is to be contracted for, or guaranteed by the citizens they to enter into a con tract with farmers near the city to furnish it. The proposition all through seemed to be so fair that the following committee was appointed to secure an option on several sites, and report their action at another meeting to be called by Mayor Morgan: 11. 15. Wind ham, A. W. White. C. C. Parmele, ISyron Clark and C. E. Wescott. A canning factory run on. business principles w ill do more good forPlatts- mouth and the farming community in general than any other enterprise that could possibly be established in our midst and the Journal hopes that our citizens will "all pull together" in their efforts to Induce Mr. Langdon to come here. And wo believe if l'latts mouth people will do their duty Mr. Langdon will not be found wanting in doing his. Send In Your Names. Always anxious to help cur city and county along we have been thinking of making up a list of Leap Year bar- gains-ln classes. First class to con tain good looking marriageable young men, green and tender. Second class to contain names of old bachelors, safe and reliable but slightly wilted. Third class second hand goods such as widowers, divorcees and old remnants from last Leap Year eight years ago. Any one wishing to enter the list may send their names to the Journal and state which class they are to be placed In. No restriction on any one in Cass county. Send In your names boys; this may help you to secure a wife. Now a Denver Policeman.

One of tne most brilliant functions of the season was the entertaining at whist at the 'Jowlc home, north of Elmwood. The thoughts and corner sat on of the truest s t imuoiinnt. th. whole evening was of the science which the lea ling tables were demon st rating, there being ten tables, each witli Its goal for the "llrst." Several musical numbers were given by the Misses lowle and Mrs, Lelbo of Fro 1114)1) t During the Intervals of tho evening the guests were served to punch and nablseoes, and at the usual hour dainty reiresnuienis were served.

That was a cool bluff sprung bv the attorneys of George L. Farley in the libel case now pending in tho district court, wherein Sheriff McUrldo is plaintiff and Mr. Furley is defendant. Mr. Farley camo Into court and Hied n motion asking that .Sheriff Mcllrlde be suspended from performing his duties in serving papers for the ensuing March term of court, and requested that all of the sheriff's business for that term be transacted by the coroner. unaouoteaiy mis was Intended as a Joke. Surely the intelligent attor neys who are lined up for the defense had no Idea that Judye Jessen would consldcrsueh a motion for a minute. The Judge very promptly set down on the motion without argument bv the attorneys. If your evidence Is as clear that the sheriff has been robbing the county In making erroneous charges, as you claimed it to be during the campaign don't try to side step, Mr. Farley, for tho voters of tho county might draw the conclusion that after all your oxpasure was simply for politi cal purposes. It stands jou very much In hand, Mr. Farley, if you really as pire to the position held by Mr. Rose water, to be very much in earnest when you make charges of this kind. If you are right you are sure to win. If you have bcon mistaken well, that couldn't be, hocauso you have ex amined tho records. Louisville Cour ier. Two to One. M. T.

COUNCIL IN CONSULTATION. Public Buildings Must Be Provided With Fire Escapes. The city council met In regular ses sion last Monday evening and if the Instructions of that body are obeyed, the next few months will witness a number of improvements in the way of lire escapes made on public build ings. A report of the tiro and water committee was presented and adopted, and City Clerk Soennlchscn Instructed to notify the owners of such buildings make these necessary improvements, and the managers of the 1'arniele Theatre were requested to place a tire proof drop curtain on the stane of that Institution, as recommended by said committee. The committee recommended that fire escapes be placed on the west side of the high school building from the third floor and also that the tower be removed, as they considered It unsafe. The other buildings mentioned in the committee report are the Perkins House, Plattsmouth House, Odd Fel lows' hall. A. O. W. ball, Coate's building, Hotel Hiley, Parmele Thea tre and Columbian school building. The newly-elected foremen, assistant foreman and captain of the lire de partment were confirmed. The re port of Foreman fitendyke, of the hook and ladder cart, referred to some facili ties which arc needed, was turned over to the proper committee. City Attorney II. 1). Travis' report called attention to the unsafe condi tion of some old electric wiring which has been in use for lo, these many years, which was referred to the proper committee. The otTer of nr. C. A.

Tho Adams Express Company, the Western Union and Postal Telegraph companies, through their local agents, protested against paying their respec tive occupat ion tax levied by the city. The same was referred to the judiciary committee. The fire and water commilteo was Instructed to ascertain tho condition of tho new building that XV. XV. Cwates was erecting In tho rear of his build ings on Main street, and In case he was not constructing the same In ac cordance with the ordinance on lire- proof buildings, to stdp the work.

The following from the Louisville Courier, edited by our friend Lee May- held, contains some things to which we fail lo find any serious objection. During the civil war we answered to the appellation of "major," simply be cause we served in the u,"th O. V. 1. in Uncapacity ordrum major. This title remained with us up to about sixteen or seventeen years ago, when In com pany with fifty or sixty newspaper men of the Third Missouri congression al district, then represented by Gov ernor Dockery, met In St. Joseph to organize an association. It is unneces sary to remark that some of the lioys got pretty well "organl.ed"durlrig the day. After dinner we proceeded to Lake Contrary by carriages and 'busses (tills Incident occurring some time be fore the railroad was built to that pol nt ) the scene of more fun. Here we were christened "colonel" by being dumped out of a skl!T Into the lake and nearly drowned. .So you perceive, Hro. May Held, there was some reason for calling us major, some caw.o for Mm an- peiiatlon of colonel, but none on earth for "Uncle Hilly," and here we wish to draw the line, because our oldest broth er answers to that cognomen: Uncle liillv l!.'it.u iiw, of the l'lattsmouth Journal, Is noth ing it not a democrat.
