D. 1884 , the eighteenth year of the state , and of the Inde pendence of the United States the one hundred and ninth. By the Governor. Attest : JAMES W. DAWES. EDWARD P. KOGGEN , Secretary of State. THE Oberlin Eye lias been purchased by Mr. Borin , a former journalist of lied Cloud. Editor Hand will proceed j to Ludel to make a warn county-scat fight in Bawlins county. | ' SITTING BULL and half a dozen other i- Indians are now being exhibited in the H east by an enterprising showman , who IT obtained permission of .Secretary Teller j | of the interior department to take the | ! famous chieftan on a tour through the I . country for "educational purposes. " IN electing General Manager Thoinai J. Potter the first vice president of the C. B. & Q. railroad the directors have put a first class man into a positior which he will adorn. POSTMASTER-GENERAL GllESIIAM , having declined the secretaryship oi the treasury , will be appointed Unitec States circuit judge at Chicago , to suc ceed Judge Drummond , and will probably - ably enter upon the discharge of his duties on the 1st of October. No FOREIGNER can vote in Nebraska unless he takes out his declaration pa pers thirty days before the election , The time for doing this expires on the 5th of October. Those who desire to exercise the privilege of voting for the next president should not fail to take out their papers at once. MR. JAMES W. DOI-AN has been nominated by the republicans of the 30th senatorial dis trict. Dolun's record in the past legislature was that of a pliant tool of the monopolies. He is nnunsafcman to trust with tueconceriiE of this state , and should never be returned to the legislature. Keep him at home. Omului Bee. Bee.We We arc sorry for you llosey but we are afraid we cannot accommodate' you in this matter. Mr. Dolan was unani mously nominated , and will be elected by a handsome majority ! THE Illinois state fair proved a finan cial failure. It was a six-days fair , and the state board will have to meet a de ficit of $10,000. Nebraska ought to congratulate herself on the fact that her fair was a success , and that a surplus is found in the treasury. It is certainly gratifying to know that Nebraska people ple patronize their state fair more lib erally than those of the great state of Illinois support theirs. THE funny editor of Harper's Month ly has cribbed the old story about the first Napoleon to whom an inventor of a bullet-proof armor came , and who fled forever from the imperial presence when the Little Corporal told him to put it on and stand up while he sent for a firing party to test it. The fellow who cribbed this old story now substi tutes the Duke of Wellington for Na poleon. The next thing will be , we suppose , an account of how the Iron Duke seized the flag and held the bridge at Loui. THE English government is trying a novel experiment in life insurance. Pol icies for sums not over $125 are now granted at any post office savings bank without any medical examination. If , however , an insured should die before the second annual premium becomes payable , the amount of the first premi um , and no more , will be paid to his representative ; should the insured die after the payment of the second , but before the third premium becomes due , the representatives will be paid only half the amount of the policy. In case of death from accident , however , the full amount is paid. After the pay incut of the third premium the policy is entitled to full benefit. Bee. Ix the Blaine libel suit the court sat on the 13th inst. to hear arguments on the motion made by the defendant ask ing for a ruling of the court as to whether Mr. Blainc should be compell ed to answer the interrogatories filed by the defendant. The judge stated in advance that interrogatories had long jcen prohibited in the United States courts , and though he personally would ike to sec the rule changed , he would not take the liberty to set it aside , thereupon the counsel for Mr. Blainc , Senator Harrison , volunteered the statc- ucnt that no argument in favor of the ulc would be offered by his side , but hat Mr. Blainc would answer the inler- ogatorics without any rule. So that cock won't fight , and the valiant Shoc- nakcr will have to think of some other lovicc to raise a sensation. Journal. THE ravages of cholera continue with ; nvful fatality in the city of Naples , since the 20th of August over two thousand deaths have occurred. The scenes in the stricken city are heart rending , and the superstitions of the people lead them to commit leeds that are a disgrace to this enlight- Jiied age. King Humbert , however , continues to bravely do his duty by rc- naining in the city and personally vis- ting the hospitals and patients without my fear of his own safety. He occu- ) ics his time in distributing aid and vords of comfort and encouragement , [ lis example has done much to allay the lopular excitement and it has induced > lhcrs to remain at their posts and pcr- 'onn their duty. The heroism of King iiumbcrt excites the admiration of the vorldj and it is truly said that'-'it is the nest welcome real picture Europe lias ookcd on for years. " Bee. BirAtJKWdOD. " September Oth , 1684. EDITOR TRIUUNE : Crossing the divide , to day , from the Willow to the Hltickwood , 1 suv that which left an impression on my niim never to be effaced. I had entered a canon when from a pocket Just ahead of modashe < n calf closed pursued by two powerful wolves .A few bounds more and both had fastened 01 to the calf. The poor creature sprang nbou trying to tare loose from those cruel fangs and as it fell and rose it sent forth a pltifu cry. I was about to dash forward , but check cd my horse as there came an answering call and u moment after , a small yellow Texas COM sprang into view. She seemed to take In tin situation at a glance. Never slacking hei speed , but with lowered head and those lout sharp horns well pointed , uttering a loud bcl low as she came on , that , live as long as I may I shall ever think meant , "Courage my child I am coining. " The bleeding calf was down but it heard , struggled to its feet and strov to reach its mother. During these years upoi the border I thought I had seen wild cattl run , but never have I witnessed such an exhi bition of speed us this wiry little cow made She fairly liew over the ground , sweeping th space that divided her from her calf almos at a bound. Like a thunderbolt she struck the wolves tearing loose their holds sending one full 200 feet into the air , where he spli asunder and fell to the earth with a sickl > thud. The other struck the earth about30 < yards away , as though hurled from the cloud and went pitch poling over the knolls , filling the air with a cloud of dust and hair. A lej. could be described from out the xvhirlinginuss The momentum of the cow was so grcat-tha she struck the walls of the canon with sue ! force as to bury her from my view , only tin end of her tail protended. I rushed forward seized on to this appendage and pulled will all my force. 'Txvcre vain : her eyes were al ready gla/.cd and sunk in their sockets. The buzzards were Hitting about searching for car vasscs. The winds swept fitfully iidown the gulch , and a mournful feeling surged up ii my breast furrowing my thoughts as 1 rode away. URSA MINOII. Uiackwoou , Sept. 10th , 1881. County settling up fast. The largest liaj crop ever cut is now in stack. Some late arrivals are yet putting up hay. Stove Hail cy and lamily have moved here from the Wil low. The Hailey boys arc preparing to fence quite a tract of their land : posts already cut Grandpa Bailey and wife , owning propertj in McCook , will make their homo there.-5 Many buildings going up on stream and di vide. Curtis sold out his ranch and about 50 head of cattle to John Hughes. Will sooi make his home in Hastings. Round-tip boys , had quite a skirmish with the fire fiend 01 Tuesday last. A pipe lit , irinatch dropped in to the grass and it took the united ctl'orts of all the cowboys , fighting with saddle blankets to put it out , and then not until the fire hud run three-fourths of a mile. Wednesday ; fire came sweeping down from the Pluttc country. Was on head of Willow and Black wood when last heard from. Stockmen were turning cattle in toward the creek and prepar ing to fight it out. The face of the fire was about 40 miles in extent. LATER. Wiiu changing , the cowboys were enabled to put out the fiaincs. W. D. Culbertson , Sept. 12,1884. Near this office , just at dark hist night , i stockman and his hand fell out and leaping to the ground were soon rolling in the dirt ii line shape. Gaining their feet the cowinai drew a knife and but for fleetness of foot we would have to chronicle the death of a cow boy. W. _ _ Commissioners' Proceedings.
