Tbe LMe OElccrs orXemlia Coun
ty. A man cliosen by ibe electors of a
"county, to transact certain i" prescribe J du
ties for the people, who does tie tame
'impartially, in a good businesslike 'man
ner, and wnh strict integrity, simply per
forms his sworn duty and executes tbe
trust as. all good men are bound to do.
But as tbu line of conducting official
Lnriness Las long since ceased to bi tbe
regular rule, tre take pleasure in com
mending all such as in our opinion Lave
heartily endeavored to so perform their
official duties as to meet the approbation
of their fellow citizens. William H.
Hoover has now performed the duties re
quired of him as District and County
Cierk for the past six years. He has
been faithful and attentive. He is a man
of financial ability cf the first order. He
is systematic and regular in all his hab
its and thoroughly understand? his busi
ness. His duties were, in part, to keep
tb records of the District Court, of the
Commisioner's Court, anJ all real es
tate records. And these records, bocks
and papers are cow a monument to his
systematic, faithful and honest business
habits, and as he delivers to his succes
sor the records and papers of the Coun
ty Commissioner's Court, and the Real
Estate Records, all will award him the
welcome applaudit well done.' He
will still ret as Clerk of the District
Court for this county.
Judge Fairbrother has for the last two
years presided S8 Probate Judge. It is
the misfortune of this oSce to require
the most work for the poorest pay of any
en tbe list, though this was partially
remedied by the last legislature. As
the law gave the judge jurisdiction of
all probate business ft is essentially an
affair of grate responsibilities. The ti
. tie to real estate became more or less in
Tolved in many of the decisions and or
ders of this court. The official transac
tion of this court cocsequensiy assumes
an importance, second only to that of the
District Court, and we are glad to say
that it is usually conceded by the lawyers-
iu iuvcc icji autc id juuc luai Hie tf
ords cf this court hare been kept wkh
uncommon care and ability, and that their
value as legal evidence cf the transac
tions therein recorded is unsurpassable.
That in matters relating to the sale of Re
al Estate, every paper, decision, and or
der cf the Court, prescribed by law, and
necessary to convey good title, are all in
proper form and carefully recorded and
completely indexed. Such records are
cnes greatest praise.
Jcnas Hacker has held the office of
County Treasurer for five years. He
has been constant, in season and out cf
season. His balance sheets give evidence
of good business talents. His honesty
and faithfulness are above suspicion.
He thoroughly understands every branch
of his business, and the funds cf the
State, County, Precincts, and School
Distrirts, have always been on hand
when called for to tbe last farthing. He
has been gentlemanly, courteous and
obliging.
The Sheriff. W. G. Glasgow, and the
County Commissioner, S. W. Kennedy,
have been officers in whom the citizens
of the county have had the utmost confi
dence. They are men of ability in their
calling, and make good officers. The
county will find more for them to do here
after. We learn from Conrad Harms, of
Douglas Precinct, in this county that the
cattle are dying in that vicinity with the
Dry Murrain. He reports that William
.Watson has lost six out of thirty head ;
that Walter Nichols has lost four out of
twelve head, and that Bernard Otens has
lost two cut of sixteen head. He also
mentioned others that have lost cattle.
They die in two or three hours after the
first symptoms of the disease are obserr
ed. On opening, immediately after dy
ing, the lungs, liver, heart and intestines
are spotted.
Soon after they are taken with dispas,
their legs become rigid, and they tumble
end shake with pain and soon die. No
pyrglive medicines can be made to op
erate. The horse doctors seem to think
there is "na cure after the disease has
made its appearance.
Since writing the above we hear of
xaacy others loosing cattle with the same
disease, among others, taat R. A. Stew
art, near Shertran, has lost five head.
We take the following from a treatise
upon the subject: The diseasa was ush
ered in with ihiverinjr, followed bv ex
treme heat, great thirst, difficulty cf
breathing, total lors of appetite, and ru
mination, together with extreme de
bility; a thick, foetid mucus discharge
from the mouth and uostril's soon sue-
ceded, ai also frequent bloody, and
f X ...
id digestion from the bowels, and the
cattle afflicted die of recorer feet weea the
fifth and ninth day afteK they hare been
taken with the disease.
As to the treatment of this disease all
authors recommend bbeding in ih&ear,
ly stages, afterwards sedatives and ton
ics, according to circc nsiancej. The an
imal infected to be. at once separated
from the hearty, and to be placed in open
and airy sheds.
Preventive treatment consists in a care
ful supervision of the cattle; the immedi
ate removal of the animal at tbe very out
set of the disease ; the fumigation and
cleansing of the building, and the immed
iate burial of all dead bodies with the
hides uuren.oved.
We hope the farmers v. ill "iep us
posted on the progress of tLe disease.
-and if cures are: efiectedr give-full par
ticulars of the : treatment that we may
publish them for the benefit of all con
cerned. We were in attendance upon L ses-.

A Trip to RIcnardson and Sontliern
roriluns or Neznalia Counties
Ma. Edito. The article in the rfd
vtriiser oi the .l4rih inst., headed -Our
Schools indicates something of the ar
dent interest which you and your prede
cessors have heretofore taken in matters
which concerns the welfare of the pub
lie and especially so far as relates to the
subject of education and social improv
menu. A recent trip to Falls City af
forded the writer an opportunity to note
some of the evidences of enterprise, im
provement and. thrift with which our
section of the State may truly be said to
abound. On the broad stretch of Prai
rie between the Liule Nemaha and the
Muddy, where two years ago the travel
er looked in vain for any sign of civiliz
ed life, and nothing could be seen but a
monotonous, expanse of prairie land, tum
bled ocd rolling like the billows of thp
ocean, may now be seen ridges dotted
with farms, and farmers busy with thir
hf rds and crops, or carefully gathering
a-enud their bimeste?ds provision for
winter comfort.
The spirit of improvement is no less
apparent in the towns. Falls City has
cast off the antique and dilapidated ap
pearance she formerly wore, and begins
to present something of tbe neat and
comely aspect so much in keepiug with
her pleasant landscape surroundings.
Two fine Church edifices are bMng
built there. One by the Methodist Epis
copal Church which is nearly finished.
The other by the Episcopalians. The
latter is designed for a Church and Sem
inary. Dr. Hanna has just completed a
fine residence, and also a large store
building, with an upper story to be occu
pied as a Masonic FLall. The new dwel
lings of the HonyE. S. Dundy, Ishatn
Reavis A. Schcenheit, Win. H. Mann,
and others, evince that those gentlemen
have a due appreciation of the value of
substantial architecture and its most ap
propriate use in furnishing tasteful and
comfortable homes.
Presuming upon our local knowledge
and topographical .kill as sufficient to
master all tae difficulties of finding and
following the road to St. Droin, little
pains was taken to make assurance dou
bly sure by inquiry. It was soon found,
however, that the spirit of improvement
had sadly perverted the points of the com
pas. and so confused the ways )f travel,
as to bewilder and confound ihe most wa
ry. However, by dilligent inquiry, and
constant travel, we at last managed to
wind into the labyrinth of bluffs and ra
vines which environs the precmcis of St.
Deroin. We were here struck with the
improved appearance of the village not
only the regulariy and order of the
buildings, but also with the appearance
and bearing of the people an appear
ance that betokens thrift, industry, and
good neighborhood, evinced by a lively
public spirit, especially as regards their
educational interest.
Hillsdale came next on the route. This
i i
is a new town, about tnree miles above
St. Deroin. laid out but a utile over one
year ago, but hai gathered the elements
of a good society ai.d is a thrifty village.
A smgle fact speaks volumes for the in
telligence, public spirit and good Amer
ican character of tbe people, viz. They
have built during the past season, a com
modious, comfortable, convenient and iast-
ful School House. One which may well
serve as a pattern for older and larger
places, until they build as good or a bet
ter one. More credit is due the people
of Hillsdale, because with much less
means than other districts of the same
needs, it has bad skill and energy to
find the ways and means, for the want
if which many of our school districts are
or might as well be, without a School
House. v '
The people of Hillsdale are much in
need of a Post Oflice. They petitioned
the Depertment at Washington sometime
ago but it seems there is some rule or law
which forbids. It is to be hoped our Rep
rsentative in Congress will look into
this matter.
We found the spirit of improvement,
morally and intellectually alive at As
pinwall. but bound and in fetters. The
propritors of the town for some inexpli
cable reason, see fit to suppress every
thing like public improvement, bv keep
ing the real estate locked up, eo that
title to lots cannot b-j procured. We
were auured that this difikuky hid not
caiy pre rented .bujldin gwtlUos
and business houses.butalso that a School
House and Churches would have been
LVilt there, before this time, had the
rVbple been able to procure lots upon
which to build them. - - :
