In

was m minuted and elected judt;e of
the Fiftli Judicial District, und has
made, for so young a man, an envia

at hand when it was necessary to se
lect another candidate, his friends,
and among them the most intimate ;
friends of Mr. Wehdi, quietly agreed
j upon putting his. name before the
ppens, that with-
owedge upon his
part, he was pretty generally recog

I He will make a strong canvass, and
J as he is utterly unen tangled with the
unpleasantness between the two
great rival railroad companies of the

much to harmonize the party. He
will be elected.
HON. TIIOS. J. MAJOKS,

I Frank Welch, is one of the oldest set

he was elected member of Congress

the admission of an additional mem

and minorit3T report upon it, and is
now pending. He will have the sat-

man of fine social qualities and mark
ed ability, and the Journal believes if
the present Congress has any enn-

it will admit him in time to com
mence business with bta colleague on
the ticket. Judge Valentine, at the
opening of the next House.
HON. AL.BINU3 NANCE,
our standard bearer as candidate for
Governor, is a young mau of great en
ergy and political tact, and has been
a leader among tbe Republicans of
the central partof the State for sever
al years. Ho was elected to the
House of Representatives from Polk
county of '74 and '75, and took p.
leading part in the discussions of that
session. In 1S76 he wa re-elected and
chosen Speaker, and established an
excellent reputation as a presiding of
ficer and a ready narliamsntnrinn
He came to the convention with a
solid phalanx of the "boys' from his
own and all the neighboring counties,
and they made the canvass for him
with an energy that soon put him Be
yond the reach of all other competit
ors for this office. He will make a
good Governor.

the bright galaxy of the yonng men
that are acting in the front of the po

A Striking Contrast.
Nothing can be more ludicrous than
tbespectacle of the Omaha Herald at
tempting to draw a comparison be
tween Judge Valentine and "Major"
J. W. Davis, to the disparagement of
the former.
Valentine came out of the army to
Omaha, went to work setting type for
a living, and studied law. He had
risen from the ranks to a captaincy,
and was breveted major for gallant
meritorious conduct on the field of
battle. He was admitted to the bar.
and in just ten years from the time
that he crossed theJMissouri river, he
took his seat upon the bench in the
2qd judicial district. Davis came to
Nebraska about the same time, not to
work, not earn an honest living by
the labor of his hand and brain but to
act aB a tool of the Credit Mobiler,
having relatives among its managers.
Valentine has been a republican
from his boyhood, has never run any
sideshows or betrayed the party to
which he belonged. . . . Davis has be
longed to all parties. In 1872 he offer
ed his service to the state central com
mittee as a stumper for Grant, and the
republican state ticket for $500. They
did not think him wortii the money
and he engaged himself to stump for
Greeley and the Democratic state
ticket, for how much the Jburnac'can
notsay. He joined the independents
in 1874, and stumped the state as a
candidate forcongress.
Valentine has always had a trade
or profession; and has always earned
! his livinq by the sweat of his brow.
. . . Davis lias no trade or profession.
He toils not nor doeshe spin, yet Sol
omon in all his glory was not arra3ed
like he, when he could get a job from
one of tho three parties, and subsist
on the proceeds of his wind. At oth
times, between jobs he gets seedy and
runs down at the beelsIike any other
tramp
Valen tine hasahostof friends among
the people with whom he has lived
am striven for an honest livelihood,
an(j was pushed by them for the uom-
mation, because of their respect for
his character and their regard for
himself. . . . Davis has none that
anybody ever-heard of. He was put
up by the greenback work and labor
outfit, because he was a windy rhet
orician, who could talk longer and
louder without knowing anything
about hiQ subject, than any other man
they could think of. He has nostand
ing an where as a business man, and
if he has done a lick of work at any
thing since he came to Nebraska, of
the kind that is recognized as legiti
mate and honorable, the Journvl has
never heard of it.
To contrast tiiose two men's records
in Nebraska, is like comparing light
to darkness, and it certainly takes a
long course of crow diet. The only
recommendation that the Herald has
given to Davis for years is in an ar
ticle not long since, solemnly assert
ing that he is not a Democrat. And
this may not, upon second thought,
be considered absolute flattery,, for a
Democrat is better than nothing,
when you take tbe census,- and make
a list of fellows to work out a road
tax. But we venture the assertion
that Davis never worked out his road
tax, even if he has ever attained a
j residence anywhere, sufficient to en
titlehim to thathouor. Stale Journal.
Potato Cheese A Peculiar Prodnct of
Central Germany.
Cheese is made from potatos in
Thuringiaand Saxony, in the follow
ing manner:
After having collected a quantity of
potatoes of good quality, giving the
preference to a largo white kind, they
are boiled in a cauldron, and after be
coming cool they are peeled and re
duced to a pulp, either by means of a
grater or mortar. To five pounds Of
this pulp, whi
ch ought to be as equal
as possible, is added onepound of sour
milk and tbe necessary quantity of
gajt
The whole is kneaded together
cheeses are placed In little baskets,

vessels, where they must remain for
fifteen days. The older these cheeses
are the more their quality improves.
Three kinds are made the first and
most common is made as detailed
above; the second, with four parts' of
potatoes" and two parts at curdled
milk r the third with two parts of po

Curinjr a Drunkard.
According to an article in the Brit
ish Medical Journal, is has been found
by Dr. Reuger that the tincture of
capsicum in ten drop doses is the best
remedj' to counteract that craving for
alcohol which is the curse of all inebri
ates, preventing their return to ration
al conduct. This remedy has been
tested by other physicians, and they
report very favorably in regard to it.
They gave several instances of men
of various ages, who, half-muddled,
hung around low drinking saloons, or
at home, and who, when the liquor
wasshutup, would pick the lock, or
when money was taken from them
would tipple on credit whenever they
had a chance.
The best way to administer this
remedy i3 to commence with five
drops in a little syrup of oraDge peel
before meals, increasing the dose of
capsicum tincture to twelve drops. In
one month mostof them became quite
different merr, changing from half id
iots to men who attend to their busi
ness, and took an interest in all that
was going on in the world, which
they before, being confirmed drunk
ards, did not, according to tbe habits
of the latter class of unfortunates.
3Iiss Osborne's Restored Scalp.
The "New Haven Palladium says:
Miss Lucy A. Osborne, of New Mil
ford, whose scalp, right eaf, and part
of the right cleek were torn off In
September, 1S74, by machinery in
which her hair caught, and who has
since been in a New York hospital, is
now at home. A new scalp has grown
upou her head by the grafting thereon
of minute bits of skin. The pieces
were contributed from the arms of the
hospital surgeons. The toaI number
of pieces used in this operation was
twelve thousand. One of tbe'surgeons
contributed from his person 1,202
pieces, and another gave l,09o. The
appearance of the scalp is now simi-
f lartoa healed wound. Of course there
can be no growth of hair thereon.
The eyes still present a slightly drawn
appearance, The wounds of the cheek
aud ear have been neatly dressed, the
former leaving scarcely a scar. In the
first of the grafting process bits of the
skin the sizeof nickel pieces were em
ployed, but not successfully, and at
the suggestion of an English surgeon
much smaller pieces were substituted
and with excellent results. Miss Os
borne is now 22 years old.
