For four years past no grain of any amount was han died at Lrouisville, because we had but one buyer, and as he had elevators at South Uend and Cedar Creek he re- reived his share of grain anyway. To day it is altogether different. On ac count of havinz two railroads and two buyers, the streets are full of teams hauiinz grain from all direc lions, and people who for years found a market in different places close by come now to lrouisville. so mote it be Died Augusta Tank, oldest daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Bluma of College Hill.

The state supreme court Saturday j decided tre Connor vs. Draper case in the latter's favor, affirming the verdict of the lower district court. Mr. D. S. Draper was the agent of Jos. A. Connor at Cedar Creek and this suit gives Mr. Draper about $000, the ver dict he obtained in the district court. Sperry Kuffner has been appointed agent in Plattsmouth for the World- Herald and, as there has been some trouble over securing the list of sub scribers from the former agent, he may miss some of the subscribers for a few days. He desires that all persons wishing the daily and Sunday issues to notify him at once of the street and number where they wish it delivered. Missouri Pacific passenger trains are running regularly now and Express Agent Spencer has been notified to attend them for the Pacific Express Co. The Weekly Jouunal this week will be permanently enlarged. Eight columns are to be added to the old size. Taking into consideration the differ ence in the size of the type and style of make-up, people will observe that hereafter The Journal, will be the la k jest as well as the best weekly in Cass county, onsiueraoie worn has been done for the Weekly recently and it has a much larger num ber of patrons, and all of the best class of farmers, than any other newspaper. Advertisers who desire to ask for the country trade can not place their an nouncements in any other paper which will vield so large returns as in The Weekly Journal. Copy for adver tisements must be at this otlice not later than Wednesday noon to insure its insertion this week. The Children's Day program as printed in The Journal was given at the M. E. church last evening before a large and appreciative audience, and each of the little folks more than creditably performed their parts.

Through train service began yester day through this city between Omaha and Union, the present service consist ing ot an engine ana com di nanon coach, which leaves Omaha at 10 o'clock a. m., reaching this city at 10:55 and Union at 12 o'clock. Leaving Union at 3 o'clock it reaches this city at 4, and Omaha at 5 o'clock. This train is preliminary to the using of this line for through train service as soon as the road is pounded smooth. The engine, a Chicago & Milwaukee coach and two Pullmans arrived at the 9hoos todav to have the damages re ceived at the McCook wreck last week repaired. Don't forget that this week's Weekly Journal will go into more good farm homes than any other news- Daner in Cass county. fSet your ad- vertisements "on the hook" in time. Mr. Charles D. (i rimes is a candi date for the city attorneyship at the hands of a democratic mayor, yet he publicly proclaims his intention of doing what he could for republicans und their newspapers. Mr. (I rimes is yet a young man and may learn in time that he is too young to make a success in politics by attempting to gain office through democratic sources by a compact with the opposition press. las, ao the conclusion is arrived at that altogether the mouth of May has been one of prompt payment, denoting pros perity throughout the slate. While money has been paid in promptly it has also been paid out almost as School apportionment war rants amounting to $320,000 are being paid, and 3300,000 general fund war rants are to be called in as fast as the accountants can compute the interest due.

Gay, the acquitted sus pect, has been stuffing an Omaha Bee reporter with yarns about his mistreat ment while under arrest and com plaining about the Plattsmouth officers not giving bim a chance to hold recep tions in the Riley hotel parlors. Tbe officers showed Mr. Gay all reasonable courtesies, and all of them are also convinced that be is one of tbe robbers of the postoffice. Nebraska people are more prosperous today than ever before in the history of the state, if the state treasurer's of fice is authority. This assertion is based upon the fact that more money has been taken in at that office during May than any previous month. Tbe sum of 9456,000 ma received, nearly all from county treasurers. This large amount was nearly all taken in after tbe mi Sireraf coasties Live net The Homeliest Man in Plattsmouth, As well as the handsomest, and others, are invited to call on any druggist and get free a trial bottle of Kemp's Bal sam for the Throat and Lungs, a rem edy that is selling entirely upon its merits and is guaranteed to relieve and cure all Chronic and Acute Coughs, Asthma, Bronchitis -and Consumption. Large bottles, 50c and $1. Nl2 Did you ever see a presidential nomination fall as flatly on a com munity as that of Harrison on this? WiTn the right man and a plain, outspoken platform the democrats can carry the country this year for president and for congress. Some KuuliHh People Allow a cough to run until it gets be yond the reach of medicine. They of ten say, "Oh, it will wear away," but in most cases it wears mem away. Could they be induced to try the suc cessful medicine called Kemp's Balsam, which is sold as a positive guarantee to cure, they would immediately see the excellent effect after taking the rst dose. Price, 50c and $J. Trial size free. At til druggists. ddtw Redemption Notice. Non resident ilpfonrtant mtimp nntnnrn) trill take notice tnat on tbe 14th dav of July, 1390.
