A.J. Leach of Antclope'connty
advertises that ho has 25,000 cut
lings of the Laurel Leaf and Gray
willow to give away to the farmers
of that county. The Laurel Leaf,
to our notion, is the most thrifty
looking tree that grows iu Nebras
ka. In conversation Saturday with
Chas. Reinke, lie told us that he had
loet, this fall and winter, sixteen
head of cattle, worth at least four
hundred dollars. Heretofore ho has
always had good success with his
cattle, but this year is a big excep
tion to tho rule.
Those who insure their proper

Henry Lcusche tells U9 that
there has brcu very little stealing
done this winter from his timber
land. There have been a few meu,
however, who were seen and are
known by Mr. Lcusche to have
taken wood. He is of opinion that
they will return it, and thus avoid
trouble.
M. Kramer of the N. Y Cheap
Cash Store returned Friday from
North Platte, where a branch store
was recently opened. He goes east,
the last of this week to lay in an
immense stock of goods, his inten
tion being to have for sale here the
very largest stock ever offered in
Columbus.
The Band dance comes off Fii
day evening of this week at the
Opera House. Attend it and get
"limbered up" for the Hookies'
dance. The boy6 are owing con
siderable on their new instruments,
ami a little encouragement just now
will be duly appreciated by the
members of the band.
L. Auderson and E. G. Piatt,
executor and executrix of the last
will of Lester W. Piatt, deceased,
have filed their second account,
which will be heard at the County
Judge's office, Monday, March 3d,
10 a. m. Those of our readers who
are interested will take notice and
govern themselves accordingly.
Dr. C B. Stillman,who has been
attending him, informs us that Wm.
Lisco is improving. He has been
very sick for three weeks of typhoid
pucumonia. Mr. Lisco is a well
known and highly - respected old
settler of this county, whoso many
friends will be glad to hear of his
complete recovery from disease.
Before auy business man "ut
ters" those pieces of paper in the
"similitude" of U. S. bank notes,
sold here the past week by a "trav
eling" roan, would it not be well
enough to read the IT. S. law and
then inquire why the name "United
States' appears on them; the god
dess of liberty, date of issue, and
other little matters that make them
appear somewhat like U. S- bills?
In this part of Nebraska we
have had very light rain or snow
fall during the fall and winter. The
ground has been exceedingly dry.
But Monday morning's drooping
clouds and drizzly weather notifies
hs that we may expect our customa
ry spring moisture, weather which
will be hailed with delight by the
farmer, as, after a few such days,
the plows can begin to move, and
the spring work go briskly forward.
A side track, for stock, long
enough to hold fifteen cars, is talked
of. Of latter years, iu fact during
S. H. H. Clark's administration, Co
lumbus has not asked for shipping
facilities without obtaining them,
when in his power. Of course, the
interests of the Company and of
business men are mutual, but it is
always a satisfaction to know an
official who is capable of recogniz
ing and acting upon that sound
business principle.
The public meeting of the Red
Ribbon Club on Sunday evening at
the Opera House was well attended,
and interesting remarks were made
by Rev. Sherman, Jas. McDonald,
Wm. Burgess, E. A. Gerrard, and
Mrs. J. H. Reed. We are informed
that Mayor Speice, who was preseut
was called on by Mr. Gerrard to
give his views on the prohibition
question, to which he responded
that if an evening should be ap
pointed for discussion and he could
be present, he'would give his views,
if desired. A committee of arrange
ments was appointed.
The peddlar who has for sever
al days been working on the streets
at his swindling games, pretty uear
ly got into a scrimmage Saturday
on 11th street. A word of advice
may not be unheeded by him. The
people of Columbus are very in
dulgent of such as he, if they don't
approve of his interestedly-benevolent
ways, they rather admire his
rattling talk, but if he goes much
further west with his games, or even
continues here with them, forbear
ance will cease to be a virtue. It
may be well enough to say that his
victims come from those who don't
read the newspapers.
Capt. II. S. Lovcjoy, of Oakdale,
and Dr. J. I. Leas, of Neligh City,
were iu town Friday and called at
the Journal office. These gentle
men are prominent citizens of
Antelope County aud were justly
severe in their denuueiatious of
mis - representative Trowbridge's
vote for the capital appropriation
steal. We do not believe that there
are five sane voters in that county
who disagree with the Capt. aud the
Dr. upon that point, aud our friends
in that locality will please accept
our kindly sympathy and commiser
ation iu the hour of their humilia
tion, shame, aud betrayal by Trow
bridge who, by his vote on this
question, belied his constituents and
traitorized their interests.
The audience that listened with
edification and thorough apprecia
tion to the dramatic recitations of
Mrs. Laura E. Dainty at the Opera
House on Friday evening last was
small. Home entertainments of
different kinds have been quite nu
merous during the. winter, with a
pretty complete programme of an
nouncements for the next few weeks,
and to this fact, probably, more
than to any othur, may be attributed
the small attendance; but we think
we are fully justified in saying to
all lovers of this class of entertain
ment who were not there that they
missed a rare treat. The programme
was sufficiently varied to completely
test the culture and ability of the
lady iu her profession, and iu our
opinion her leputation for being
among the best of dramatic reciters
was fully sustained, and we hope
this will not be her last visit to
Columbus.
Elsewhere will be found the
proceedings of a meeting held'in the
city Saturday evening for the pur
pose of asking the legislature to
make an appropriation in further
ance of immigration. We regard
the subject as of the utmost import
ance to the State. For our vacant
lands wc want men who will turn
them into sources of wealth for
themselves, and of greater prosper
ity for the State. Nebraska with
her three hundred and fifteen thous
and souls, is large enough to sustain
in happiness ten millions. Let
every man constitute himself a com
mittee of one for the purpose of in
ducing relatives, friends and ac
quaintances to make this State their
home, but this can only be when the
Stale provides the way for spread
ing broadcast maps and descriptions
of the several counties? Instead of
appropriating $100,000 on an addi
tion to the capitol building, if our
legislators would devote that much
and secure its judicious expenditure
in the interests of immigration, they
would receive the hearty tbauks of
every intelligent voter in the State.
The key-note of our young gover
nor's inaugural message was immi
gration, and let that be the subject
uppermost in the minds of the peo
ple until the productive plains of
Nebraska support at least two rail
lion souls. Cut down expenditures ;
reduce the taxes; make every spe
cies of property secure ; make every
human life, as nearly as possible,
safe from all harm ; execute the laws
faithfully; punish every crime; tell
the world what we are and what we
have, to the end that the tcus aud
hundreds of thousands of the sons
of toil in eastern lands may come
among us to secure independence,
if not fortunes, and homes for them
selves and their little ones. Let it
be spread abroad, too, that the
straight-jacket of opinions is not
worn by Nebraska communities, and
that a man is free to do bis own
thinking as the Nebraska zephyr is
to blow. In short, let all our ad
vantages be set forth to the world,
and let us build up here a model
community in every respect.
Iloapltal.
The following, which appeared in
a recent number of tho Era and is
from tho pen of one deeply interest
ed in the project, we publish by
request :
"It will be borne in mind that a
meeting of our citizens was held in
the Opera House some time no to
take into consideration the feasibil
ity of establishing a Sister's Hospital
in Columbus. At that meeting a
committee of five was appointed to
act in the premises.
We learn from the members of
that committee that the Sisters are
already assured of the donation of
suitable grounds for tho hospital
building, aud that the Sisters are
now collecting funds iu Lincoln,
Omaha aud other parts of the State
for the erection of such building,
and it only needs the hearty support
ot our own citizens to hasten the
good work aud make the project a
success.
As yet wc are unable to state the
size and cost of the hospital building
as that will depend on the amount
of funds collected for the purpose.
Of course the institution will be
non-sectarian in its character and
management, being open for the
reception of patients of every class
irrespective ot creed and nationali
tythe inmates being free to receive
the ministrations ot such religious
teachers as they may desire; and
while it will be properly a charita
ble institution, moderate aud reas
onable compensation will be expect
ed from patients whose means will
warrant the same, yet the indigent
will receive equal care and consid
eration without pay and without
price. We are warranted in stating
that the county can make very sat
isfactory arrangements with the in
stitution for the care of our county
poor this alone is a matter of much
importance to our tax payers.
A board of directors is to be
chosen to co-operate with the Sis
ters iu the general management and
control of the institution.
Subscription lists will soon be
circulated and it is hoped that our
citizens will liberally respond."

Immigration.
Pursuant to printed notices cir
culated among the citizens of Platte
county, a mass meeting was held at
the Town Hall in Columbus, Neb.,
Saturday evening, Feb. 8th, 1879, to
memorialize the legislature to make
au appropriation out of the State
funds to be used to the best advan
tage in securing immigration to this
State.
John Hammond was chosen chair
man of the meeting, aud John
Schram, secretary.
James E. North, being called up
on, stated the object of the meeting
aud offered the following resolution
which was unanimously adopted.
Resolved, That our representatives
in the legislature be and arc hereby
requested to use their influence to
secure au appropriation of a suffi
cient sum of money from the State
funds- to secure the printing and
distribution throughout the eastern
Slates, of such documents as will
advertise the resources of Nebraska
and give such information as will
induce emigrants to conic to this
State to settle.
On motion, the secretary was in
structed to forward a copy of the
proceedings of this meeting to our
representatives at Lincoln, also to
request publication in the Columbus
Journal and Era. Adjourned.
John Hammond, Ch'n.
John Schram, Scc'y.

adjustments in our losses aud heart
ily recommend the Insurance Com

Messrs. Becher & Beynolds also
acted with great energy in securing
to us the amount duo from the In

Bi-carbonate of soda is said to
be an excellent thing for burns.
Place it thick on the affected part,
tie a cloth over it, put a little water
on that to dissolve the soda. Where
it is properly applied, no 6car will
bo left, even though the flesh has
been burned to a blister. This rem
edy is very valuable because nearly
evcrv household has it at hand.
Thanks to Mrs. Mary B. Finch,
the poetess, for a late copy of the

Gov. Hubbard's message. There is
nothing comparable with the news
paper for catching the very spirit of
a people, and if the entire north
could get an occasional glimpse of
the ardeut, impulsive, aud yet with
al generous south, the country would
be more harmonious.

The Liver is the imperial organ of
the whole human system, as it con
trols the life, health aud happiness
of man. When it is disturbed iu its
proper action, all kinds of ailments
are tho natural result. The diges
tion of food, the movements of the
heart aud blood, the action of the
brain and nervous system, are all
immediately connected with tho
workings of the Liver. It has been
successfully proved that Green's
August Flower is unequalled in
curing all persons afflicted with
Dyspepsia or Liver Complaint, and
all the numerous symptoms that
result from an unhealthy condition of
the Liver and Stomach. Sample
bottles to try, 10 cents. Positively
sold in all town3 on the Western
Continent. Three doses will prove
that it is just what you want. Sold
