This is about the method of Jacob Ernst and Judge Higgins. The following local was omitted from last week's Journal. Judge I. N. Taylor of Oakdale was in the city Monday. The Judge is about to enlarge the Pen and Plow, and desires to engage the generous busi ness men of Columbus to assist him with a share of their patronage.

Kramer, Spruce street, oppo site the postoffice. As an evidence of the business entcrnrise of fins house, we would refer to their lib erality iu advertisements; being three times as great as any busi ness house in the city. In dull times Kramer tells the people through the medium of tho press what he has to sell, in brisk times he ceases not to herald the glad tid ings over the country through the colums of the Western JSTebr ash-ian, the only thoroughbred newspaper published in North Platte. A most valuable, and it is claim ed the most imporant, number of this Journal ever issued, is the American Agriculturist for April.

Camilla Uro. Her performances on the violin are as graceful as they arc masterly. She glides over the strings with a a touch like that of a fairy, and awakens the cords to most entranc ing melody.
