While the first train of railroad
cars to Brownville, Monday of last
week, was returning to Nebraska
City the excursionists organized a
meeting to express some sentiment
itid opinion with regard to their trip
to Brownville. Mayor Tuxbury, of
Nebraska City, was made chairman.
Messrs. Calhoun, Patterson, Woods,
Majors and Sloan, were appointed a
committee to draft resolutions, and
sported the following, which were
unanimously adopted :

Mr. Howe, the other day, offered
a resolution for the adjournment of
the House on the thirtieth int., but
when the gentleman from Nemaha
consulted an almanac, kindly furn
ished him '13 a brother member, he
made the wonderful discovery that
February has not 30 day? in it. There
was a general laugh by the honorable
members at Howe's expense, but it
ought not to have been, for tltey
should not expect Mr. Howe to know
everything.
Dr. Converse, Superintendent of
the M. P. railroad, was in the city
on Saturday last, for the purpose of
receiving the Peru bonds voted to aid
in extending the M. P. road to Peru.
Col. Majors, Marshal Daily' and quite
a number of the citizens of Peru also
came down ort that business, but a
majority of tho Board of County
Commissioners, by whom the bonds
would have to be delivered, failed to
be pre.-ent, and of course Dr. Con
verge was disappointed in getting his
bonds. Mr. Shook was the only Com
missioner present.
Wje ask the pardon of our' read
ers this week for paying so much at
tention to the editor of the Granger
and Mr. Howe, his employer. He
attacks us severely in his last week's
paper and directly contradicts state
ments made by us, and in self-defense
we hurl the lie back into Mr.
Geo. B. Moore's teeth. We not only
brand him with deliberate falsehood
but are able to prove it by testimony
respectable and responsible. When
we make an assertion unqualified and
positive we want it understood that
we always stand on tenable ground.

will be charged at the door, and noth
ing more after you enter 50 cents
pays for all. unless, perhaps, if the
young folks conclude to dance awhile,
something will be charged those who
participate, in order to pay expenses.
The receipts of the occasion will be
applied towards buying an organ for
the Division room. Everybody is iu
vited, old and young.
We learn through Dr. T. W.
Leeper, of Aspinwall, that Mr. Frank
Bother, of that place, met with a very
hevere accident one day last week.
Quite a number of persons were in
the store of Mr. Weisenreider who
were under the influence of liquor,
and were very carelessly handling a
loaded revolver. Mr. Kother, fearing
some accident, got possession of the
revolver for the purpose of drawing
the loads. While in the act of doing
this, one chamber was accidentally
discharged, the contents passing
through the palm of his hand, inflict
ing a very severe wonud. Dr. Leep
er says Mr. Bother is getting along
finely, and that the u-e of his hand
will not be materially impaired.
The Doctor says there is considera
ble eipkness in that locality.

Moore ought to be paid for doing

to pay him himself, and we object to
him paying money out of the public
treasury for that purpose.
Frank Mclninch called on Tues
day and renewed his Subscription.
From remarks he made regarding the

The American Newspappr Ad
vertising Agency of Geo. P. Howell
& Co., New York, id the only estab
lishment of the kind in the United
States which keeps itself persistently
before the people by advertising in
newspapers. They evidently receive
their reward, for we have it from a re
liable source that advertising orders
issued by them for their customer
have exceeded three thousand dollars
a day since the commencement of the
year, and this is not a very good year
for advertising cither. GCwl
We are reliably informed that
the two independent H'a at the capi
tal intend to vote against the removal
of the capital. We are overpowered
with J03' to think that these gentle
men are going to vote on that ques
tion in accordance with the Adver
tiser's advice, and we tell them that
the indignation of their constituents
would be extremely awful shou d
they sutler themselves to be bam
boozled or bought off to do otherwise
and we hope therefore they will be
faithful to the end, and not be over
come with temptation.
Mr. J. W. Brush has shown us a
letter from John Creason, who used
to live in this county, but now of Hall
county, this State, near Grand Island.
Mr. C.easun say.s many of the people
of his prec'uet are suffering for food
and clothing, oud must have aid or
many will absolutely perih. He does
not want help, now, himself, but ap
peal? to the charities of the people in
behalf of his destitute neighbors
Thes sufl'erers should apply to some
relief organization for speedy help,
or avail themselves of the ap
propriation which will oertaiuly soon
be made by the State.
The editor of the Granger last
week devotes nearly all of that part
of his paper that is not printed in
Chicago, to Church Howe and the
Advertiser, and not in a single in
stance does he truthfully refer to us.
In other words he lies right straight
along fiom one end of his editorial
pages to the oilier. Facts bear us out
in the remarks we made in regard to
Mr. Howe and we are able to show
them whenever we feel so disposed.
The editor of the Granger ought to
know by this time that we do not
shoot fit random, and that If we do
sometimes shoot ot a small mark, we
generally hit the thing we shoot at.

GOOD RESOLUTIONS.
At a recent meeting of Rising Star
Grange, Wm. Bridge, master, the fol
lowing resolutions were unanimously
adopted :
Whereas, Good and neat public
highways are conveniences that every
citizen should highly appreciate; and
that well kept and convenient roads
are marks of the industry, thrift and
intelligence of the community iu
Which ouch roads are located ; and
Wiiereag, It is a very common
practice of farmers, for the purpose of
scouring their plows, to indiscrimi
nately plow up the roads, and thus
leave them in a very unsuitable con
dition for travel, and also of throwing
hedge trimmings in the public way,
which often result in injury to man
and beast, and especially to children
passing on the road. Now, therefore,
be it
Jiesohed. By the members of Ris
ing Star Grange, that said practices
are untidy and unfarmer-like, and
that we condemn the same, and call
upon the supervisors of the county to
enforce the law against obstructing
the public highways.

The Advertiser should be care
ful how it opposes a "hill" or express
es H view of its own, tar it may be
converted into a "fling" at the "in
corruptables," and flings hit some
times, and hurt too. They are the
only ones who have a right to cry
"corruption," and present bills.
"Freethinkers" should not ob
ject, if they would be consistent, to

We wish to say that the merits
bf the Advertiser are duly appre
ciated in this locality.
In traveling over the countyMn
many places we find feed scarce and
stock poor. In this community there
seems to be plenty to 'go through' all
right.
To all good moral men and wo
men, who wish to get a home, we say
come and settle with us, and we wjll
try to make you happy. We bid you
welcome.
That was quitd ft joke on Mr.
Stokes' boys when they took the girls

got their necks untied, ran away, and

Jno Stevenson, Reub. Kite, E. J.
Randhli, W. H. Tucker and Hiram

hundred acres of fall wheat. It looks
well as yet, for all the severe 'cold,
and promises to make a good crop.
We have survived the .grasshop
pers and dry weather and feel happy.
Y"et there Is one class of our citizens
that deserves sympathy, viz: the
young ladies. Why? Because they
can't "cetch" Hi Swarlz. O! ye fair
ones, "go for" him. Hi is a good fel
low. We ha' a g'Sod neighborhood
organized into school district No. 3S.
We have from seven to nine months
of school each year. Mr. J. B. Piper
is teaching our winter term- He is
an able teacher, and has the faculty of
caining the love of the pupils. I
think Mr. Pierson will give us credit
for a good house, good teacher and
good school.
Let croakers cry "hard times,"
those who lack "push" whine about
low prices, and the inactive complain
of Providence, nevertheless, we hear
