In laying out roads reference
should always be bad to the con
venience of the traveling public, and
not altogether to the whims of the
land owner, for instance: a road

location can be had.

Tho Cleveland Leader, in speak
ing of Prof. Wilber's lecture on

ough and honest investigation. He

deep convictions.
"L." sends us the following as
his figuring of the stock problem:
"1 cow in ten years, aDd her de
scendauts every two years would
produce CO head, and the cow would
make 61 head in ten years. At 3
years old they would produce 47
head and the cow would make 48
head in ten years."
The lecture on the Horrors of
Andersouville Thursday eveniug by
Paul Vandervoort was not very
largely attended. The subject is
such as not to be a source of amuse
ment, the details being too sicken
ing to speak of. The Columbus
audience desires amusement as well
as instruction. The lecture was
good.

house. J. H. Drake, G. A. Hamilton, J.
W. Bishop, J. L. Merriam, Horace
Thompson, A. II. Wilder, C. II.
Bigelow, II. H. Sibley and J. Sprinc

ties to Columbus.

modations, while the fare -will not
exceed emigrant rates. He expects
to return with the party about
March 18th. In the mean time his
address will be New Brighton, Bea
ver county, Pa.
Mr. P.Glickof Tiffin, Ohio,who
has largo cattle interests in Holt
county, Is about to make Columbus
his headquarters, ne will be hero
next week to make arrangements for
a stable to "stow away" his trotters,
of which he has three, and all good
ones. Frank Robs, his trainer is an
"old timer" on the turf, aud when he
gets them set.tled away to business,
it takes a Rams to head him on".
Monitor Lodge K. of H. are
considering the propriety of estab
lishing a lodge of Knights & Ladies
of Honor, called the degree of pro
tection, similar. ia its nature to the
Eastern Star degree In Masonry and
tbe Rebeka degree of Oddfellow
ship. Besides the principles of help
in time of need and trooble, there
is a system of life insurance connec
ted with the order, and there is no
doubt but that the institution of the
degree of protection would greatly
benefit the order in this commun
ity. We hear of a man representing
himself in the northern part of this
county as Walter Craig, the owner
of the Township Farm in Stanton
county. Those who are familiar
with Wat. will be surprised to learn
that he is a man 74 years of age, of
Swedish birth ; one finger partly cut
off; uuder the medium height ; has
a brother's son living near Schuyler,
etc. This man, whoever he is, talks
of grand improvements on tho
Township ; of opening a large farm
in each corner of it, and stocking tho
36 sections heavily with sheep and
cattle, etc.
The ball given by the Hook and
Ladder Co. Monday night was a
decided success in every particular.
There were about sixty maskers iu
various costumes, representing nu
merous characters to the life. We
were not able to obtain a complete
list; of the funny people, and it
would 'scarcely be" proper to dis
criminate by particularizing some of
the brave and gallant knights aud
sbmo of the fair and lovely ladies ;
suffice to say that all were apparent
ly highly pleased with the amuse
ments and that nothing occurred to
mar the harmony of the occasion.
The Co. will realize nearly half a
hundred dollars as proceeds.
. On Monday evening last Mr.
and Mrs. R. H. Henry gave a private
party at their new residence on
Olive street, which was attended by
a number of their relatives and mar
ried acquaintances, the occasion be
ing the tenth anniversary of their
wedding. The party was said to be
very enjoyable, and passed ofTto the
eminent satisfaction of all present ;
refreshments were served, all were
made to feel at home, and from all
reports a good time was had gener
ally. The presents of tinware were
quite numerous, among which was
an elaborate tin trumpet, of which
the worthy Chief of the fire depart
ment seemed to feel very proud.
The general wish of their numerous
friends being that they may live to
Our Ienver Letter.
February 22d, 1880.
Ed. Journal: L do not know as
I cau write anything that will be
new to many of your readers, but
will try aud give them some facts
about the country and climate. I
left Columbus on the 1st inst., arriv
ed in Denver on the 4th, stopping
on my way at Golden. We have
had but two snows as yet, the weath
er for the most part being pleasant,
with very little or no wind. Snow
stays but a day or two, but can see
plenty on the Mountains, and I am
told by old residents that it can be
... t
seen there ail summer. L.ongs
Peak, Pike's Peak and many other
notable peaks and passes can be seen
from here, and they can justly be
comprehended only by being seen.
The mountains here are not thickly
timbered, as I had supposed, but on
the contrary,-are for the most part
auite bare, only occasionally what
look like scrubs are to bo seen, yet
I am told that timber abounds farth
er to the west and south, and I
know this must be the case, as the
native timber is sold for about the
same price as Wisconsin or Michi
gan lumber does with you. Yet
lumber that comes from that country
and which is used exclusively for
finishing brings more than double.
The native lumber is pitch pine, and
the trees which are planted for beau
tifying the public streets and private
lots are cottonwood, with now and
then evergreens and fruit, which in
all cases have to bo irrigated to
thrive. The nights are cold and
chilly ; ono can work out of doors in
shirt sleeves during the day, but
when night comes ho needs vest,
coat and overcoat, and all well but
toned. I am also told that in sum
mer the nights are always cold, with
nono as sultry and hot as we often
experience in Nebraska.
Notable among tho many improve
ments now goiug on are the Wind
sor House, a fivo story hotel, with
gtono front, to contain three hun
dred rooms. This is being built by
an English firm, and commenced
with a capital of $250,000, and it is
now ostimateu mat it win taKe
$50,000 more to completo it as de
signed. There are many other very
fino buildings goiug fast to comple
tion of which I lack time to describe.
Among those which arc to be built
are the Government post office and
a largo union depot.
Notable among the lecturers it has
been my lot to listen to in Denver
woro Brick Pomeroy, formerly of
the LaCrosse Democrat, and Prof.
O. S. Fowler of Phrenological fame
of New York City.
With regards to all,
B. E. Rooers.
Importnat to IBorwe Owner.
We have it from a reliable source
that in the western part of this
county there has a disease called the
Texas itch broke out atnoug horses ;
that several have already died,
through its effects; that it is very
contagious, etc. Our informant says
that he knows of persons who are
determined to enforce the law in
such cases unless those having these
diseased horses are more careful
hereafter in keeping them away
from places of public resort. The
owner of an animal afflicted with a
contagious disease can readily see
that he has no right to put in
jeopardy the property of others, for
he has no right to inflict an injury
upon them, and the law, if appealed
to, will fully protect them. We call
the attention of those interested to
Sections 76 and 77 of the criminal
code of the State, wherein the fine
is laid down at not less tbau $50 nor
more than $500, or imprisonment 10
to 50 days.
We may add for the information
of those who may not be acquainted
with the nature of the disease that
it is similar to the itch in man and
the scab in sheep, aud can probably
be cured by the same remedies as
are applied for those diseases such
as turpentine, coal -oil, tobacco
juice, etc.
Post Office Faa.
A letter from some foreign coun
try, addressed Carl Brantley's, Ko
lombus, America, h going the rounds
iu tho following manucr:
Columbus, O., Feb. 9. Pass it
around, please.
Columbus, Ind., Feb. 13. Tisn't
ours. Here it goes.
Frank, Clerk.
Columbus, Ks., Feb. 19. Give it
up. Next one try it, please.
Birdie McDowLL,Clerk.
Columbus, Neb., Feb. 18. Ouce

E. C. Hock., Clerk.
And it takes its way to Columbus,
Nev. If Mr. Brandey's lives in any
Eolumbus in the United States that
letter will smell 'him out yet.
At the meeting of the City
Council on Saturday evening an or
dinance was passed giving the Lin
coln & Northwestern R. R. Co. the
right of way on 13th street as far
west as the block east of Becker's
grocery and south of John Huber's;
also an outlet north on II. street;
or any street east of that; besides
this they are privileged to use the
alley south of Becker's, as far west
as N. streot. Thoy have 30 feet of
13th streot, as far as they go, and arc
to purchase all the property over
which the' run, and pay any dama
ges that may accrue to adjacent
property. As comparatively few
peoplo know the streets by name,
we will state that those running east
and west arc numbered from the
southern limit of the city and those
running north and south are lettered
from the eastern limit. Thirteenth
is the street on which aro located
the Engine House, Marshall Smith's
block, &c. ; "II" is two streets east
of the Court House; "N" is the
street running north and south be
tween Gluck's new buildiug and
Greisen's store. The depot grounds
will probably be across the street
cast from Becker's grocery, south of
John Huber's residence, north of and
across tho U. P. track from Charles
Schroeder'8 Foundry. We believo
that the action of the Council in this
connection will receive the entire
approbation of this community. The
problem of finding a place nearest to
the U. P. depot yet readily accessi
ble and least damaging to property,
we believe has been satisfactorily
solved.

"We have on our table tho life
and travels of General Grant, writ
ten by Hon. J. T. Headley, author
of Napoleon aud his Marshals aud
Washington and his Generals. The
book is well written, profusely il
lustrated and contains 251 pages of
incidents and facts in tho life of
Gen. Grant, and 599 pages give full
and details of his travels. The book
is printed in very nico clear type
and well bound. It should be read
by every American citizen and ev
ery Platte county family can procure
a copy by applying to C. L. McClure
at Doland's drug-store.
The story of a change in the A.
& N. management, says the Atchi
son Globe, looks improbably, for
several reasons. It has never paid
until the past two years, and their
extension gives it facilities for mak
ing money never before enjoyed.
This year's business, during the first
of the dull months, was more than
double that of last year. This fact
we get from Col.Towne himself, and
there is every reason to believe that
this increase will be continued dur
ing the year. Lincoln Journal.

For the Journal.
Mb. Editor: Since you publish
ed the statement of the National
Live Stock Journal in regard to the
sale of that $10,000 yearling heifer
of the Airdrie blood, I find a still
more remarkable account of an ani
mal of that strain of blood in the
American Agriculturist for Janu
ary, No.3G; that journal says: "The
10th Duchess of Airdrie, owned by
Hon. Mat. Cochrane, is ono of the
most remarkablo cows on record.
She has just given birth to her ninth
calf, 8lh Duchess of Hillhurst.' Of
tho 10th Duchess and her daughters
Mr. Cochrane has sold several ani
mals at the price named. 4th Duke
of Hillhurst, $7,000; 5th Duke of
Hillhurst (2 months old) $8,000;
Duchess 5th (8 months old) $18,000;
Duchess 2d (cow) $21,000 ; Duchess
3d (heifer) $23,600; Gth Duchess of
Hillhurst (heifer) $12,000; 3d Duch
ess of H. (heifer) $21,500 a total of
$131,600 for the eight animals. The
10th Duchess, Airdrio Duchess 4th,
and the 7th Duke and 7th and 5th
Duchesses are still in Mr. Coch
rane's possession, valued at$HG,000.
Grand total from the 10th Duchess
of Airdrio $247,600. Not a small
sum for one cow."
I am of course interested in such
facts as the strains of blood men
tioned in both cases are united in
our own thoroughbred bull, Baron
Oxford 13435, as his warranted ped
igree shows.
As a curiosity, Mr. Editor, you
will allow me to state in conclusion
that we have this year's lambs
weighing from 35 to 40 lbs.
Yours respectfully,
