WEEKLY TRIBUNE , F. M. & E. M. KIMMELL , Editors and Publishers. OMAHA has secured the State Fair for the following five years , and the Lincolnitcs think the Omahas want the earth. KEROSENE has sent many a mortal to heaven. Politically it has consigned Mr. Payne to an entirely different temperature. THE act of June 15 , 1880 , instead of henefitting the settler , will throw more land into the hands of speculators than any existing apt . WE have .the second number of the Gosper County Citizen hefore us. The Citizen is a neat , well edited paper , but needs a proof reader immediately. JAY HUBBELL looms up in the polit ical horizon of Michigan like a quid of * tobacco oir a French-plattc mirror It is hoped he will be permitted to remain in the horizon. ROBERT HARRIS , Vice. President of the Erie railway , has been elected Pres ident of , the Northern Pacific and has accepted. He was formerly connected with the C. , B. & Q. . MIKE CUDDIUIE and wifn were lynch ed by vigilants at Ouray , Colo. , Sunday morning , for the brutal murder of an adopted daughter. This is the first in stance of a female being lynched in the Centennial State. IT is claimed that the American hog i § receiving more attention in foreign journals than the Kings and Queens. He deserves it , too. In his extreme modesty , he is oblivious of the honor conferred upon him. THE wreck of the steamer Columbus is said to have resulted from the care lessness of the pilot. It appears he left his post to go and warm himself in a time when the ship was in a dangerous place. Such recklessness should be duly punished. CONGRESSMAN GREENLIEP of the Empire State suggests the following cduplet as pretty clearly defining Per W's position on the 29th day of August : You can and you can't ; You will and you won't ; You'll be damned If you do ; You'll bo dan\ncd if you don't. THE Denver & New Orleans railroad company filed a complaint in the United States court to-day against the Union Pacific railway company for $1,000.000 damage , claiming that the latter road refuses to exchange passengers and freight and has entered into a compact with the Denver & Rio Grande to break it down. SENATOR LOGAN introduced a bill to provide for an extension of benefits to all persons already granted or hereafter may be granted to "soldiers , sailors and members of the marine corps who serv ed in the late war , " and upon the death of such persons to their widows or minor children under the laws and reg ulations that now govern such cases , except it shall not be necessary that such widows or minor children prove the death or the result of any disability contracted in the service. THE House Committee on Public Lands held a meeting at which all members but two were present , and unanimously agreed to report to the House the bill to declare the forfeit of lands granted to the Texas Pacific rail road. The bill agreed upon by the committee contains besides the provis ion declaring the forfeiture of lands granted to aid in the construction of the railroad , a clause validating all acts of the Department of the Interior , its offi cers and local land officers in permitting homestead entries selections "or pur chases of laud granted to the company and on issuing the patents certificates and lists thereon , and confirming .the rights ajid titles to parties or persons holding patents or claiming the right to title under such certificates or lists of lands. 1 ; WASHINGTON LETTER. WASHINGTON , D.'C. , Jan. 22,1884. The Republicans of the Senate have again nominated and elected Mr. Ed rnunds President pro tern of that bed notwithstanding that his resignation was accepted in the early part of the present session. The intention was to place Mr. Anthony in the chair , but his health has compelled him to decline th'e honor ; hence the decision to again thrust it upon Mr. Edmunds. The lat ter is , of course , an able presiding offi cer , but I doubt whether he would not greatly prefer his old place on the floor , where he always led in the debates and made things uncomfortable for his op poncnts by his sharp and incisive re marks. As a presiding officer , Judge Davis , of Illinois , who retired last spring , was not exactly a model , but his "go as you please" style was , on the whole , rather popular , especially his determination to adjourn in season to permit him to sit down to his dinner at six o'clock. Several long sessions of the Senate , carried ten minutes , fifteen minutes , or a half hour past six , annoy ed him grievously. As the hands of the clock neared the hour for his dinner he could not conceal his anxiety to get away. Senator Edmunds has a vein of humor , and on such occasions did not scruple to parry the chairman. One day when a bill , which had been for weeks under consideration , was about to come to a vote , and six o'clook was near , the Vermont Senator , purely in a spirit of mischief , , suggested the propriety of having the bill read , as many changes had been made in it which required scrutiny. Mr. Davis was dreadfully provoked. Tossing his head on one side , and casting a piteous , appealing glance at hc clock and then at Mr. Edmunds , he protested , with all the earnestness possible , in a voice that came direct from a yearning stomach , "Oh , but it'sa very voluminous bill , and it will take the clerk a long time to read it. " The beseeching voice touched Mr. Edmunds ; he relented , the bill was passed , and Mr. Davis trotted off in temperate haste to the National ho tel to get his dinner , half an hour later. THE clergymen of Indianapolis have formally recommended that funeral ser vices shall be performed on secular days , in private dwellings , aud not in the houses of worship ; that the friends shall take leave of the dead in private ; that the remains shall not be exhibited to the public , and that , with a view to reducing the burden of expense , the services shall be one day and the buria ! privately performed on the next. May the clergymen of Indianapolis live to ittend many funerals and never go to bheir own. AT Philadelphia the father of Bertha 0. Clear , secretely married a lew days since toJ. B. Garrison , the "living skel- jton , " has filed a bill in equity praying ; hat the marriage be declared null and v vI I ! r lompetcnt to enter into any contract. A CROSS-EYED man , with a revolver , ihe Commercial-Advertiser says , is the ; error of western camps. It was just such a man that suggested the idea vhich gave us the gatling gun and the uitraillcuse. THE family of Henry Kendall , num- icring seven , substituted "Rough on lats" for baking powder in making tiscuits , Sunday , and at least two of he "seven will go up higher. TIIK United States Senate consists f seventy-sis members , whose aggrev * ; ate wealth is said to be $180,000,000 , aaking it the richest deliberative body i the world. THE sentences of Polin of Platts- louth and Hart of Grand Island has een commuted to imprisonment for ; fe by Governor Dawes. THE jury in the Nutt case brought ai aiN i a verdict of not guilt } ' on the ground N ill f temporary insanity. raw th EVERY member of the Utah Legis- P .8 < iture is a Mormon. dc ni A YORK girl attempted to expedite a fire with kerosene , but she had to run out and roll in the snow to cool off. THE Beatrice Express has added a new cylinder press and steam power to its machinery and will soon issue a daily paper. THE coal excitement at Oinio , Jewell county , Kansas , has become a carbon- acious reality. At the depth of 155 feet a three foot vein of the blacknlia- mend has been struck , which is pro nounced far superior to any yet discov ered in the west and equal to any from the well known mines of Pennsylvania. Oberlin Herald. IMPORTANT. A lady was disappointed the flrst time she used DeLnnd's Chemical Baking Powder. Her baking' was yellow. The trouble was , she did not allow for the extra strength , which makes only about one-lwlf the qnantitv necessary. She learned her mistake and now declares Ifrto be the best she ever used.
