Falsi- Report Corrected. Some time ago an article was publish ed in the Omaha lire in regard to some money collected at South Omaha for Montrose precinct having been misaji propriated. W. E. Jones was the only man from Sioux county who had any thing to do with the matter and the fol lowing letter shows that his actions were all straight: Soith Omaha, NrjJ., June 5. 1801. W. E. Jos in, Esq., Montrose, Nebr. Leah Silt: Yours of May 27th read and in reply will say that I bent to be distributed to Montrose precinct $2,00. You did not collect anything from me here, but told mo you would rather I would send it instead to the clerk of Sioux county. Am sorry to hear that the pajier made such a mistake in regard to it, as you did all you could to help them out. You can show this to The JouiNALand they cau mention it in their next issue. Hoping you will have u rood crop tlu's year, I remain, Yours truly, W. G. SiiANli, Mayor. Last week W. It. Smith moved into his new house on his homestead. J. V.

That is a good riddame, as such animals do a treat deal of damage. , wi.ir not. nxm.nirB for a county fair on next Saturday? If a fair is going to be held this fall it is time some move was maile.

Prof. Barbour, late of Grennell, Iowa, college, but now connected with the state university of Nebraska, ar rived in Harrison the first of the week and yesterday, accompanied by .0. E.

The young peoples' society of chris tian endeavor will hold its 10th annual international convention at Minneapolis, Minn., from July Jth to 12, 1891, for which occasion the F. E. & M.

For further information call on or address any agent of the F. E. & M. V. railway. The practice of dumping manure in heaps around the outskirts of the town is not a good one and the village board should have it stopped. Chairman Afniiie of the hoard sugcresls that some of the manure could be used to good ad vantage in filling up the old well north east of towii. As it is the hole is dan iremns and should be covered, Idled or n - fenced before accident Occurs. Secretary Furnas of the state board of agriculture, writes that he wants two logs from this section to be used as col umns in the forestry building at the world's fair at Chicago, one pine and one ha wants the finest that can be found. They must be 25 feet long, not less than 10 nor more than 20 inches in diameter at the base and taper nicely to the top, with tho bark on. They must be cut in tho winter so that the hn-k-um nnt. neel on", and all that is asked is that they be secured and placed and he will attend to the freight. Tho columns will be label led from whence they come. We hope people will keep an eye out for nice trees of that class so that they may be secured at the proier time. Gov. Fur nas also expresses the hope that Sioux county will be at the state fair with her "Sunday clothes on." The creamery subject is looked up on by almost every one as a good plan and there is no question but what a suf ficient number of cows can be secured to start one in'ood shape. There is al ways a market for the product of the dairy if it is put in the right shape, but it is poor pay for the farmers and their wives to mako butter and have to sell it for 8 or 10 cents a pound. It is also poor pay for the merchants, as one of them remarked that ho had about 600 pounds of butter on hand for which he paid 10, 13 and 13 cents a pound, and he would gladly sell the lot for 8 cents a pound. With a good, cash market for milk tho farmers would, soon have the cash to pay for what they buy and that would do away with a great deal of the credit ImsinosH of tho merchants and would relieve them of the necessity of handling all kinds of butwr, PERSONAL.
