THE JOURNAL-. WEDNESDAY, OCT. 29, 1879. Lincoln is railway. talking of a street Ox the 27th a foot of snow had fallen at London, Ont. The fever is abating at Memphis. On the 24th only one new case and one death reported. Oct of 500 tons of stacked hay a Dakota county farmer saved but four tons from a prairie fire. Five hundred emigrants were ou the road from Montreal on the 23d, destined for the Western States. Several factory operatives from Bradford, and silk weavers from Macclesfield, England, sailed the other day for the United Stales. The funeral of Major T. T. Thorn burg, recently killed in battle with the Ute Indians, took place at Omaha on the 22d with military honors. Ax accidcut on the Pittsburg and Lake Erie railroad the other night, wrecked twelve cars, killed the brakcraan and injured the fireman. Kepuiilicaxs in Nebraska should do their whole duly on the 4th, aud send back to Maine, Ohio and Iowa the glad news of another Republican victory. The body of George Burr, who went up with Prof. Wise in a bal loon, was found last week ou the shore of Lake Michigan near Mil; ler's Station. T. L-Buaxtly, marshal of Whites burg, Ga., recently shot and killed two negro girls. The murder was wanton and unprovoked, and the murderer has escaped. Ox the '2M insf. a portion of Bethany College, Vf. Va., was de stroyed by fire, valued at $30,000. There is no doubt that it was the work of an incendiary. "Walter Goodrich, a young law yer of Chicago, has been missing for some time. He had on his person 42,300. It is believed that he has been unfairly dealt with. "WnEELtx, Woods, Bosse, Sulli van and Mrs. Annie Thomas were arrested the other night at St. Louis for dcaliug in and passing counter feit dollar and half dollars. News from Rawlins under date of the 27th indicates that the most vig orous campaigns ever known in the Rocky Mountain region will be prosecuted unless the Ute trouble is speedily settled. This is a bad year for democracy, as the late elections have shown. Specie resumption has taken place and the times are so good that "the government'' can not be blamed with any public evil. Jack Xolax and Joe Johnson, two of Middletou's men, were re cently captured by Detective Llcw- cllyu and Gen. McLaura, U. S. Marshall of Minnesota. They were committed to jail on a charge of robbing the post office at Bone Creek. W.m Sawyer of Furnas county . this slate, ihc other day, murdered Mrs. Harriet N. Colby, by crushing her-head with a hammer, and stab bing her several times about the body. After committing this hor rible deed he shot and killed him self. Wm Hogg, formerly a citizen of Cadiz, Ohio, but recently a resi dent of Bloomington, 111., last week shot his daughter and son, and then bbot himself. All dead but the son, aud it is thought he may survive. It is believed his failure in business led to the commisjion of the terri ble act. The Omaha Herald, true to its democratic practiccs,.Jias been pub lishing slanderous articles against Judge Cobb. It seems altogether impossible for Dr. Miller to conduct a political campaign on correct prin ciples, and treat his political oppon- j outs with fairness or even accent respect. The Georgia desperadoes are still prosecuting their diabolical work. The other night, near Millcdgevillc they attacked the premises of Luke Robinson and burned his barns, stables and gins. While the build ings were burning the outlaws were plainly seen, a they stood laughing and shouting in the light of the jlatues. The Apaches, in Xcw Mexico, the Siouv and Utes are all out ou the warpath and committing more or less depredations upon the proper ty and lives of the settlers ; and the administration at Washington dis cussing what action shall be taken against them, aud concludo that only precautionary measures should be adapted. "Times" arc certainly gelling better every week, and shortly there will be uo spceies of industry but will indicate the difference. The long night of commercial depression is past ; the better day has dawned arid we predict, for this western country especially, the brightest time in her history. On every hand are heard the peaceful tones of com mercial 4iope, aud every man is gel ling rcadyjtcyjreap his due share of -jfce goo& harvest. TThe same jyiuci pies that entered largely iuto the canvass in Uluo anu Iowa will lend to influenco the vote in this State on the coming 4th of November. The remembrance of the usurpation of power by the dem ocratic congress, the political mur ders in Southern States, the attempt to subvert the election laws and to starve the government iuto submis sion, aroused the llepublicans of those states to unusual activity, re sulting in such splendid victories. Senator David Davis confided to the Illinois State Journal before the Ohio election that if Ewing was de feated in Ohio Gen. Grant wpuld surely be the Republican candidate for president next year; aud if a caudidate, will be elected, and if elected, will never leave the White IIouso alive. This is what some people call out here iu the west "bull dozing," an idea we thought would never enter the head of such a man as Senator Davis. This little expression however gives us an in sight into 'some of the Senator's votes in the senate. -- The reader is referred to an nrti cle in this issue of the Journal on the subject of the county paying bounty ou wolf scalps. The ques tion is submitted to a vole of the people of the county at the coming election, and those living in the country feel a vital interest in the question, on account of the great damage done to individual property of citizens. Aroters who are liable to the depredations of these wild an imals, have now an opportunity to vote a bounty, which may materially aid in thinning out the wolves in the country places, where the most damage is done by their frequent visitations. The Democrat in its last issue ventured to charge Mr. Early, the Republican candidate for county trcasurcr,wilh want of qualifications to discharge the duties of that office. The facts in Mr. Early's case show what little regard the Democrat, had for truth in making the statement thai Mr. Early was not one-half as competent, trustworthy and reliable as the Democratic nominee. Mr. Early for a long time has assisted Mr. Kummcr in the discharge of the duties of that office, without one complaint from Mr. Kummcr of his incompetency, and with the knowl edge acquired of the duties to be performed during his cervices under Mr. Kummcr, wc venture to make the assertion (hat no other man in the county, except Mr. Kummcr, is as competent to step into the treas urer's office to-day, aud manage iu detail the various duties of that office as Mr. Early; the voters of Platte county doubtless entertain the same opinion, and will endorse his competency by their votes on the 4th of next month. PalcMiuc Till ley. Ed. Journal : Our pleasant little sctllemeut was overshadowed by a heavy gloom last Monday, caused by the first death which ever occur red here, in the person of Miss Lotic M. daughter of W. F. and Har riet E. Hanchctt (formerly of Elgin 111). Aged 15 vears 10 months and 10 days. The obsequies were ob served Wednesday. The Rev D. C Thomas Baptist missionary for Platte County officiated. Miss Han chctt was beloved by all who knew her, and she will be missed very much by her family, neighbors and schoolmates. Your?. J. Oct. 21lh, 1S79. tCoinimmicatcri. McliutCc :ind tlio YolkKhlmi. The German Volkxblall advises the Germans to vote for independ ent candidates, but we venture to say that the Volksblalt is too young to dictate to old German citizens. If it survives the election and gets out of swaddling clothes, it may speak a word to the Germans. As yet its advice is lost upon us, especially iu regard to Mr. Schutlc, who will on the 4th ol November le.el as one who has been ausge-Schutte-d (pouted out) by his owu countrymen, who will in a body vote against him as sure as they arc German?. - Humplicry Item;. Since my last letter to the Journal, one family have arrived here, from Iowa and intend to make them a home in Nebraska ; and two little boys have 4,put in an appear ance," oucat the Iiou&b of Mr. Mc Gehec, aud the other at Olin Try lie's. Mr. Dorr has built a house aud moved into it. Mr. Wanzer has rebuilt his stable and barn-yard which the wind des troyed a few months ago, also built a corn crib; in fact, there have becu several large cribs built, and some farmers have commenced to husk their corn, which promises to be a bountiful yield. A valuable horse belonging to Mr. Pierce, (who is a new coiner here.) suddenly sickened aud died.

A fire starting from the head of Shell Creek, in Boono co. ran up through Antelope to Oakdale, and in places to the Elkhorn, inflicting terrible losses. It is thought to have been put out by a man known here by the name of the Wild Irishman. Report says he is on the wing, and the indignant people, who suf fered from the fire, in pursuit for the purpose of administering summary justice. .o Crcston Items. Dear Jourxal : Now that the A. 8c N. R. R. is a certainty, and the county election will soon bo a thing of the past except in its effects, will you not give a little of your thought and attention to another class of your readers? Why cannot there be a housekeepers' and useful in formation column added to your already valuable paper? I am sure it would add greatly to its interest and usefulness. Of course there are many suggestions of this character to be found in other papers, but the ladies of Platte county will take more kindly to advice if obtained from their own county paper, more especially as many of them found in such departments are only available to those living in large cities aud far beyond the reach of the average homesteaders. Could there not be a sort of bureau of exchange estab lished bv which a large number of young housekeepers as well as older ones might be informed of the little economies and inventions which others have practiced successfully, iu other matters besides cookery? From the display and excellence of the fare, especially of the pumpkin pies at the festival held on Friday evening last at the East school-house, there is no doubt that the ladies of Crcstou will be able to add their share of information, especially upon the formation of the last named delicacy. If all the precincts arc as much interested iu the bouuty clause at the coming election as this ouc is, there can be no question of its be coming a law. Wolves arc growing exceedingly bold, even in daylight coming close to the houses. Mr. C. llcitsman miw a grey one as high as his dininir-tablc, committing depre dations upon his hogs; he could scarcely scare him away, he was so fearless. Messrs. Anson & Steel tell of their coming to their hosr vards after the little pigs, it bciug a well known fact that they will cat them ; they chased them away, hut for a time it seemed impossible to get rid of the unwelcome visitors, as they would gel back to the pens as soon as the men and dogs were there. One came upon Mr. Andcrnian's farm about 0 a. in. aud seized a chicken within a rod of several members of the family aud carried it off through the grove, deaf to the shouts of the witnesses who at first supposed it was a dog. Mr. Eddy found one playing with his dog one morning by his stable door. Mr. Jackson had a pet lamb grazing with the cattle in sight of the door; to their horror it was seized bv a cayote and before they could reach it its cutrails were torn out. Of course all who arc engaged in sheep husbandry arc deeply interested iu the matter, as they have to be con stantly on the alert to prevent dep redations on their Hocks. In goinjc north fQi slough grass last winter a pack could be seen a short distance from us disporting themselves on the snow like puppies; when com ing home they tollowed so closely that when the lop of the load slipped oil' they ran under the wagon for protection, escaped at the hide and made off. Wc carried a gun the next trip but they smelt the powder and kept a respectful distance. It is a daily occurrence to hear some neighbor tell that a wolf, skunk or other vermin have nearly depopu lated their chicken yard ; many who used to carry from 50 to 100 fowls arc reduced to 5 or 10. Mrs. E. Gra ham has lost this summer over 100 young ducks; of. course these facts are well known to all in the precinct and no one will fail to vote bounty ami of course we are not the only ones who suffer Irom this cause. Your-; trulv, n. n. October 20, 1S70. -e- - ConIliiij on State Right-. Here is Senator Uonkliug's sum ming up (in his Brooklyn speech) of what the dogma of slate rights has done: "State rights brought on Ihc war with Mexico, to get more territory to plant with slavery. "State rights Hung down the Mis souri Compromise to spread slavery, and wrung from the court the Drcd Scott decision. 'Stutc rights sent the army into Kansas, and by war, murder aud outrage attempted to force slavery upon her and upon other coming states. "State rights hunted slaves in peaceful communities with artillery and dragoons. 'State rights dispersed legislatures with the army of the nation. "State rights plundered the treas ury and prostrated the credit of the country. "State rights scattered our ships iu distant seas, stripped northern arsc uuls of arms and sent them to the south, and put our armies under traitors who surrendered litem; and all this was to so arrange that the government might be easily mur dered in its bed. "State rights waged the rebellion, with its mighty, murderous sacrifice of life and treasure. "State rights murdered Lincoln, and tried lo murder his chief offi cers of state. "State rights now maim and mur der national officials in the discharge of their duty. "State rights since the war have perpetrated nameless horrors, mak ing free government by majorities impossible iu several states, and subjecting lo worse than slavery a race which the uation and all its cit izcus arc bound before God and mau to protect. "State rights just of late have grasped at still higher usurpations. "When before the war or since, till recently, dared any parly say that the government should be strangled aud starved unless, at the price of its existence, the president would give dp his duty and his oath ? ''Who before ever dared to say that the revenues paid by the people should still be collected, but arrested and embargoed while the govern ment and laws should perish ? "The vote of this stale this year must utter the judgmeut of the state on all these things. O. JtcjmbUcaii. COLUMBUS MARKETS.
