oaa cuun matter.
The Aurora creamery cointiny has re
cently changed its name to the South
Platte creamery company, which takes
in four counties south of the Platte
river. The factory at Aurora is turning
out over 2,000 pounds of butter daily
the largest amount in its history.
Thubsday, July 9, 1891.
Lincoln is after the national encamp
ment of the G. A. R. in 1892. Tliere is
ho reason why it should not succeed io
the effort and the entire state should do
all possible to help Lincoln win in the
race.
" The Herald cries "We move that an-
ptber expert accountant be sent for,
TBS JoCrKal moves that the Herald
publish the results of the work of the
expert that was employed. That paper
claims to print the news.
Editor-Attorney Walker asserts that
bonley gave Mrs. Shay ten dollars to
leave) but he gives no reason for such an
act, nor does he gives any proof thereof.
He knows the charge is false. It rill
take more than Walker's word to make
fwople believe it
. From measurements and counts made
In the beet fields at Norfolk it is esti
mated that if the beets only average one
jfound each, the yield would be twenty
tons per acre. At the average price paid
at Grand Island last yearj f4.W per ton,
the crop would bring the grower the
neat sum of 90 per acre
a uestructive uroutn is prevailing in
Ihdiatla. The grass is said to be as dry
as tinder and constant alarms of fire
along the railroads keep the farmers
busy. Three fires occrtrfed in one vicin
lty in one day and the entire neighbor
hood had to turn out and fl ht it to save
their crops and buildings:
A terrible cyclone visited Baton
bouge, La., on Die 6th inst. demolishing
the penitentiary and killing and man
f;ling many people. It Is estimated that
rom thirty to forty were killed, while
the number of wounded is hot known.
The track of the storm in other places is
marked by killed and wounded.
.. There are six hundred bands employed
in the beet fields at Norfolk and a demand
for five hundrd more. An industry
which gives employment to that number
'ft UL . .
oi persons insures prosperity to any
place. A poor man's capital is his labor,
and any one who will create a market
for labor is a benefactor to the poor
( , ftdltor Walker charges Conley with
doing things which, if true, would be
grounds for disbarment It would be a
' good plan for the attorneys to organize
a bar association and then such matters
could be tried in court, and relieve At
torney Walker of trying his professional
competitors in the columns of his paper,
. with himself as judge,' jury, witnesses
and all. .
A few weeks ago County Superintend
ent Southworth ordered bis Herald stop
ped and as result the mud-batteries of
that paper have frequently been trained
on him. Brfcfetitly Editor Walker in
kind of work to be considered
as a clud with which to prevent others
;fcom following Mr. Souluworth's exam
ple. Such a course will not be apt to
keep up a circulation.
, In speaking of the offset on the short
age of trie ex-coanty officials in which
County Attorney Conley wrote to At-
. torney General Hastings,' Editor Walker
pays, "That is the kind of an attorney
Conley is. He gives an opinion and
then looks up the law and authority
afterwards." The records of the courts
indicate that Conley looks op the law
before he goes into a case, as be does not
fake positions for which there is no law,
neither does he file petitions which "do
, pot state facts sufficient to constitute a
cause of action. '-V-. - -
A farmer was fined 100 and costs in
the district court of Otoe county a few
days ago for furnishing liquor to a
habitual drunkard. It is singular that
men will furnish liquor to those to
whom the dealers refuse to sell. When
a man becomes so addicted to the liquor
habit that lie is refused drink by those
licensed to sell, a third party is doing an
injustice to the drinker and to the saloon
keeper and is also violating the law by
purchasing liquor for him.
The republican state convention of
Iowa passed a resolution endorsing the
city of Omaha as the most suitable
place for holding the next national re-
nuhliean convention. The claims of
Omaha for the convention are meeting
with a great deal of favor all over the
west There is a general demand by the
west tliat the convention be held west of
the Mississippi and Omalia is the only
Dlace caimble of entertaining tle vast
crowd.
It is reported that as soon as the state
board gets through with the Hastings
insane asylum investigation, it will take
up the affairs of the asylum at Norfolk,
on charges recently made. Tliat is the
proper thing to do. When cliarges are
made against an official in the proper
manner, an investigation should be
made and the cliarges sifted to the bot
tom. If the charees are found to be
true the official should be punished, and
if they prove false the vindication is to
the credit of the official,
The World-Herald attempted to create
a sensation a few days ago by proclaim
ing that Gov. Thayer had been pocketing
certain fees which came into his hands.
As soon as the Governor s attention was
called to the matter he promptly showed
that the charge was false, that paper
must be pretty hard up for sensational
stuff with which to fill its columns when
it has to resdrt id sv.ch extremes as that
Such petty assaults upon the chief exe
cutive of the state have no effect except
to show the narrowness of the party
making them.
The assertion of Walker id regard to
County Attorney Conley getting $7.50 in
the mandamus case is calculated to mis
lead the readers of his paper. There was
more than one mandamus case. The
case in regard to the assessment of im
provements on goternment land has
cost the county nothing, The manda
mus case in which the expenses were al
lowed was the ode iri regard to the
claims held by the Bank of Harrison.
Such base attempts to deceive his read
ers are highly commendable on the part
of Editor Walker.
.,, Walker howls because the records
shpr that the commissioners met as a
hoard . of equalization and also as a
board of county commissioners on the
same day at different times during the
reoant session. Mr. Walkef knows, or
ought to know, as he professes to pos
' fees profound legal knowledge, that un
der thejaw.tbsy cannot do otherwise.

The reports as to the condition of
Secretary Blaine are to the effect ibat
the great statesman is rapidly nearing
the close of bis earthly career. His re
signation is said to have been written
some days ago and he has been arrang
ing the details of his affairs preparatory
to departure from this life. As the
great man lingers his approaching death
will be regretted by all, regardless of
party or nationality, and so long as
there is life, the hope will be entertained
that he will again rally and resume his
place as one of the foremost men of the
age.
Editor walker tills the greater por
tion of the last issue of the Herald with
a lot of trash against the county com'
missioners, the county attorney, county
superintendent, Attorneys Holmes and
Sullivan and the county officials in gen
eral, and, of bourse; The Journal comes
in for its share. The f ict is that Walker
has "got it in" for all against whom lie
opens his mud-batteries. In June, 1889,
he was informed that he could not use
the columns of The Journal to vent his
personal spite! After the election in the
fall of 1889 be wanted to be deputy
county county clerk and because he was
not appointed be took offense at County
Clerk Lindeman. Because Judge Barker
was appointed deputy county clerk
Walker became jealous and hence he has
devoted a good deal of attention to the
Judge. In the fall of 1890 when H. T.
Conley was nominated for county attor
ney Walker's jealousy was again aroused
and so he proceeds to "wade into" Con
ley as a regular thing, t Again, Attor
neys Conley and Holmes are getting
their full share of the law cases and
Walker attempt to build up his own
law practice by trying to tear down the
standing of bis competitors,. , While the
fact that County Superinteadent South'
worth had the audacity, to order the
Herald stopped is grounds .sufficient for
Walker to make attacks on him. The
action of the commissioners in employ
ing aa expert accountant whose t report
shows that Walkec,drew more than be
was entitled to .while county attorney
affords a reason' for . him, to Attempt to
ttake it hot for ihsm, an beca
when Hall failed to proaequte Opts) and
Talker instituted a new case and workj
fd up the base, to have QpJUvaa retained!
to help prosecute the ones in the district
court again aroused Walker's ire. ltn'
der the editorial management of George
Walker the Mission of the IZaraMiaaiav
Ttie RAM. opened its station at Hot
Springs on July 30. inai gives u.

that it will develop as one oi w frail

to create a market for the products of
tlie soil of the surrounding country.
A fearful railroad accident occurred
at Ravenna, Ohio, on tlie morning u.
July 3d. Twenty-one lives were lost
and twenty-four people maimed and in
jured. It was caused by a fast freight
running into the rear or a Heavy laueu
passenger train. Fire followed the
crash and added to the horrors of U
catastrophe. It is claimed that tlie flag
man did not signal tlie freight train in
time for it to be stopped.
