Long Pine is jubilant over the pros
pects of having the United States fish
hatchery located there. All the people
in northwest Nebraska would be glad to
see the hope of the citizens of Long
Pine realized,
Notwithstanding the efforts to keep it
from the public, the fact is tliat cholera
is causing a great many deaths in
Europe every day. If an epidemic is es
caped the countries of the old world
may consider themselves fortunate.
The deiuand for a cheaper rate to the
worlds fair has been listened. tQ by the
roads and ft rate of one and a fourth for the
round trip has been made, That will
help a great many people to see the big
how. The new rate will go into ef

H is reported that a pop gathering was
held near Stromsburg on July 4th at
which the stars and stripes were not
permitted to be unfurled... If the report
is correct it certainly shows that the
great reform party has. no patriotism or
love of country in its make-up and no
party will amount to much which is
ashamed of or disrespectful to Old
Glory,
From what can be learned it is the
desire of the silver mine owners to learn
the fate of the white metal as soon as
possible. If it is to be money they will
make a big stake and if it is to be mer
chandise they will arrange to operate
the mines at a reasonable profit. It is
more the uncertainty of the thing than
anything else that is worrying them.
The pop convention of Ohio, a few
days ago in convention assembled, un
animously passed a resolution calling on
congress to impeach President Cleve
lapd as a traitor. It would be a hard
matter to And an executive who would
be satisfactory to the populists. It is
strange that when conventions of that
party do such things as referred to above
the men who claim to be fairminded of
the party will acquiesce.
From all over the land the reports are
that the financial situation has passed
its worst stages and the conditions are
pow a good deal improved and the pre
dictions of those who are in a position to
judge are that within six weeks the
flurry will be entirely past and there
will be plenty of money for all legeti
tnate business purposes. The confidence
Of the people is already restored to a
very great extent and that is a long

Mosher, the bank wrecker, was sen
eonced on last Saturday by Judge
Dundy to serve a term of five years at
hard labor in the United States peniten
tiary at Sioux Falls, South Dakota. The
sentence is the shortest time allowed by
law for the crimes to which Mosher con
fessed. It was generally thought he
would not get off so easily, f all bank
wreckers were certain tltut they would
wear stripped clothes for live years they
Would be more careful.
If those who want the volume of the
circulating medium doubled, claiming
that it would help them when they have
nothing which they could exchange for
money if the country was flooded with
It, will give some tangible reason for
their demand they would come nearer
being entitled to a hearing than they are
jjr simply howling for nioiu money to be
issued. Let all the money be issued
that is necessary so long an it Is good
money, but poor money would be a
(Jetriment to all classes.
President Cleveland has been suffering
from rheumatism for some time past,
but the reports are that he has so far
recovered as to be able to go Ashing so
the public mind is now at ease. Press
eevMspondents seem to be given to a
food deal of exaggeration on suoh mat

for the best, especially when the flnaij'

The Chadron Journal has again chang

management success in the future.
When tlte affairs of the banks which
have failed within the past few weeks
have been investigated one of two things
liare been found. Either the banks are
able to pay depositors in full or the of
ficials or some one connected with the
toink has not been honest. Financial
slrinsenev seems to work the reverse of
chanty in that it exposes a multitude
of sins.
Tlie army officers who were recently
appointed as Indian agents do not appear
to appreciate the task set for them and
are making an attempt to get the presi
dent to change his order and let them
out. It has been supposed that such
positions were very desirable by the
number of fellows who wanted them,
but it may be that the army officers are
better acquainted with the work of the
oflice than are other people.
Proceedings have been commenced by
the attorneys for the state in the late
impeachment farce to compel the com
mittee to pay them what is left of the
appropriation. It is brought by Doane
who was one of the attorneys who gave
the opinion on which the suits were
brought. It would seem that after
having proven that his opinion was
wrong he would subside and not make
such a display of gall as the suit above
referred to demostrates that he possess
Last week a negro was lynched by a
mob at Bard well, Ky., and ii now
it seems to be pretty well estab
lissed that he was not guilty of the
crime for which his life was taken. Two
girls were murdered and suspicion fell
on the negro in question and he was ar
rested. The sheriff tried to prevent the
njob from doing violence to the prisoner
but was overpowered and the man hung.
Mob law should only be resorted to in
cases where the laws are perverted or
fail to meet the demands of justice and
then every particle of doubt as to the
guilt of the accused should be removed
before such terrible punishment is
meted out.
The publishers of the Cosmopolitan
have created a sensation in magizine cir
cles by reducing the price of that popu
lar periodical to $1.50 a year, or just
one-half its former price, and that too
with no reduction in the quality of edi
torial or mechanical excellence which
has always been of the highest order.
The management of the magizine has
for some time been increasing the circu
lation of the Cotmopolitan as rapidly as
possible and it has reached a point where
it can be produced at a profit at the re
duced price, which will make it within
the reach of all. The action of the pub
lishers of the Cosmopolitan means that
much more first-class literature will be
read by the masses and that means ele
vation of the people and the broadening
of their views and it all tends to make
the world better and therefore happier.
A terrible storm passed over the
counties of Cherokee, Beuna Vista,
Pocahontas and Calhoun, in Iowa on the
night of July 6th dealing destruction
and death to all the towns and people in
its path, At Pomeroy the destruction
of the town was almost complete. It
is said that a hundred were killed and
several hundred injured. At other
towns the results were nearly as bad.
The financial loss will run up into the
hundreds of thousands of dollars, and
the suffering which will be inevitable is
appalling to even think, of. The scenes
at .the improvised hospitals are said to
have been heartrending. Hail accompa
nied the storm, the hailstones weighing
from one to three pounds, splitting roofs
and killing stock, so great was the force
with which they fell. It is said to have
been the worst storm ever experienced
in Iowa, An appeal has been made to the
governor of that state for assistanoe and
everything possible is being done to re
lieve the unfortunates.
On last Monday a fire occurred on. the
fair grounds at Chicago which destroyed
one building and caused the death of
about forty firemen and guards. The
distressing scene was witnessed by many
thousands of people who were powerless
to render any assistance. The favorable
winds were all that prevented the de
struction of the entire white city. Had
such a thing occurred the lose of life
would have been the most terrible ever
known. It Is said that the mayor of
Chicago has decided that the protection
of the exposition buildings will be taken
in charge by the city of Chicago in the
hope of mora safety. The Ore was first
discovered in the tower of the building
and the firemen rushed up there to ex
tingulsh it, when to their horrpr they
saw that all below them was aflame.
A number jumped a tHetance of ninety
feet to the roof below and were mangled
to death.

alflcut iMto. It tboni, ia a paann
way, that there has been a steady im
provement in the condition of '! Whor
ing population. That is to . ' -'-of
living has gradually decreased and the
rate of wages lias gradually increased.
The working man receives more for his
services at present than he lias ever re
ceived before, and the articles that he
mainly buys are to be iiad at lower fig
ures tlian he has ever before obtained
them. This effectually disposes of the
molanchoiy talk about alleged misfor
tunes of the industrial classes. They are
earning twice as much as they did fifty
j ears ago, and it does not require so much
by at least one-fourth to purchase what
they need. It is true that they are not
now satisfied to live as they lived at that
time, and that the gain is accordingly
not represented in actual money or prop
erty, but the fact remains that they have
profited in the measure staled, and that
there has been a corresponding addition
to their comfort and happiness. They
are better housed, fed and clothed than
the laborers of any other country.
Their chances of employment have been
materially enlarged, and the poorest
among them have not been deprived of
the opportunity to better their condition
by industry and economy.
