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: ""

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.

tlie Diost irouit and beneficed is Ayer's

their medicinal virtues ior a long time, and
are easy to take.
" I can recommend Ayer's Pills alwve all
others, having Jong proved their value as a
cathartic for myself and family." J. X. Hess,
Leithsville, Pa.
" In 185, by the advice of a friend. I began
the use of Ayer's Pills as a remedy for bil
iousness, constipation, high fevers, and
colds. Tlit-y served me better than any

them in attacks of that sort ever sine."

Sioux City party which has $1,000,000 in

They also control the Northern terminal.

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

Line in conjunction with the Great
Northern. 1 J. Hill backs the former fi
