R 3 L 5, fh'e Sioux County Journal. Lj. omm oonrrr paper. o Subscription Price, $2.00 - Editor. ' Entered at the Harrison post office as see Olid mat U-r. Thursday, Feb. 12, 1891. i Tlie recent severe storm extended east to New York and was unusually severe all along the route. - A few days ajro the Lincoln Coll issued its annual review of the progress of tliat fity during 1890. The paper is a credit to the city as well as to the publishers, and indicates that Nebraska"s capitol city is making rapid strides of advancement. We have received copies of a number of bills now pending in the legislature, through the courtesy of Senator Wilson, Among them was the one providing for the Australian ballot system at elections. If the session does nothing but make that law it will have done a great work for the purity of elections!. Congressman Dorsey says there will be no free silver coinage bill nor any finan cial legislation during this session of con gress. Mr. Dorsey voted against the sil ver bill last session, because it was against his personal interests, and now just as be retires it is hardly likely that he will change. It is hoped that the free silver coinage bill will be passed by con gress in the near future. . The Herald continues to howl because it did not get the county printing and cites a part of the action of the commis sioners in other counties, one being from Banner county where a sensational com munication had been sent to the H orld Herald to the effect that two of the members'of the board"orthat'""couury would be requested to resign. It is quite likelyTthat'the "members" belong to a gang similar to the one that controlled Sioux county prior to Jan. 9," 1890. Ee epence is also made to Use action of the commissioners of Dawes county, where the matter was reconsidered, but is as si lent asthe grave' as to what followed. The result of the re-consideration was, that a mandamus was issued by the dis trict court compelling the board to stay by the first propositions. The statement that the Herald asked ajre-consideration is not a fact. The ed itor simplyjtled; a setiond tbid, after the board had acted on the matter, and he must have done it simply to create a pre text to howl. the Herald hasa "great deal to" say about The Jochnal being a pet of the board of commissioners, and seems to be befciegedwith a'sudden.fit of morality on account of it. In April 1889, the editor of the Herald addressed, a letter to the present edij o Tub Journal, prior to Wr- coming here. Speaking of tne pros pects for county business for The Jour nal, the editor of the Herald said ; "County patronage it has none, nor can it expect to have, for its course has been one of abuse to all our officials, and Only one commissioner will be elected next fall and modestly speaking the chances of a friend of the Herald being elected aregood." - , , Because The Jocbsal advocated the rights of the people, honest elections an4 pit;opevi4niokakiptt bf the county iffairs, it could not expect any of the county business, but after the Kerald has maligned and villified the officials who have not done one single act that was not in the interest of the county, the ed itor of that paper howls because the commissioners did not give him the pre ference; and not Coiijg that, he tries to make people believe that they should Save done an illegal act by re-considering the'matter. To show how tjbe Herald loves the "dear people" it is only necessary to look up the jecords in the office of the county terk. On March 8, 1888, the Herald put in a bill as follows: "" Jan. 14, 1888 i . i ta W q' Com. Pro 21.33 In cfuimentiny uton the rwluti Js ' passed by the farmers on the 3d iiit. the Herald states tliat most of those signing j the re-sol at ions did so without reading j tbem at all. and sav tliat the "jndigoa-i tion meeting was held very quietly at The Jocrsal olfii-e.'" Tlie editor of the Herald perhaps feels bad because he was not called into tlie farmers meeting. As to its being held at The Journal office, tliat was in keeping with the movement, for tlie farmers well know tliat The Journal advocates the rights and inter ests of tlie farmers, and it will continue on ttie same line. Tlie statement made by the ll.nihl tliat the resolutions were gotten up by some farmers who have tiieir otiice and resideni'e in town, and the insinuation tJiat the signers did not know the con tents of the preamble and resolutions, is a direct slap at the intelligence of the men who particijwted in the movement. The fact is that the men who took the action in question are tlie kind of men who can think and act for themselves and cannot lie led arouud by tlie nose or " worked'' by any one who desires to use them. They know they can expect neither help, sympathy nor fair treat ment at the hands of tlie JJJruW and those who control it No matter what comes up tliat is for the interest of the settlers, no ai'! need be looked for from that source. To illustrate this fact take a look at tlie course pursued by that pa per. When an attempt was being made get up an exhibit from this county for tlie state fair, a gentleman requested uie rieraui xo puuiisn something in re gard to it, but nothing appeared until public meeting was held to arrange for an exhibit and a resolution passed that both the county papers be requested to publish the proceedings. The farmers have taken a good deal of interest in the cultivation of sugar beets, but not one word o encouragement has apeared in the Herald, and'so'on downtlie list; to the question of getting seed for the com ing season. In tliat if there is any re port or rumor that will tend to discour age the"settlers"t!iat'is"just :ihe" kind of news the Hrald is looking 'for, and tlie comments on the action of the farmers are in keeping with the general policy of the outfit that runs the Herald. Per haps when the farmers hold the meeting called for next Tuesday tlie Jlrald will realize that they are aroused in their de fence of their homes and families and that they are not simply letting some one lead them'around.

Arpiarrel between the Sioux City anaiNewlork stockholders caused Hip road to be put into the hands of a re ceiver in December. Last 'week the Sioux City party which has $1,000,000 in the road, effected a contract to buy tiie interest of the New York party. The Sioux City men interested are tlie same who built tlie Sioux City & Northern to a, connection with tlie Great.Northem, in connection with which it is operated. They also control the Northern terminal. company, in which J. J, Hill is heavily interested. The same men by the same deal acquired control of the Pacific Short Line bridge over the Missouri river which is in course of construction, and the transfer was effected today. The ar rangement is to operate tlie Pacific Short Line in conjunction with the Great Northern. 1 J.
