M. O'Herne, recently of Omaha,
has purchased quite a large tract of
land of Mr. Gerrard, south of tho
Loupe and adjoining lauds, we

O'Herne, we learn, intends to go
into stock raising largely as one
half of his lands produce the best

We learn that James F. King of
Waterford, Penu., is talkingof estab

Columbus. Wo beliove this would
be a good point for that iudustry.
Corn is cheap, and there would
bo a good market for'the products
viz: starch, syrup and glucose. It
is said that this business pays well
where corn costs 75 cts. a bushel.
There was a horse in town Sat
urday which had been afflicted with
the Texas itch. It looked fearfully
poor. It would be well for farmers,
in tho western part of tho county,
especially (whero this disease was
brought in from Texas), to keep
careful watch over their horses, and
begin romidios in time. It seems to
act upon horses muoh as scab does
upon sheep, but more violently.
The same remedies are used.
Care should always be exercised
to keep the air (whioh is a great
portion of our daily food), pure. A
complaint comes to ns from the
western part of tho county concern
ing the pollution of the atmosphere
iu the neighborhood from the decay
of several carcasses. It would take
but a short time to place them in the
ground where all doleteriouB gases
would be converted into food for
plants. It would seem that the hot
day 9 are upon us, and more than
usual care should be taken to pre
vent disease.
The local events of the week
have been the Republican State
Convention, and tho call upon our
militia company to go to Omaha.
For the first, Columbus is mainly,if
not wholly, indebted to Hon. L.
Gerrard, to whom, with II. P. Smith,
is also due tho admirable arrange
ment of the Opera Houso, for the
accommodation of the convention.
Tho only objection wo have heard
to the action of the committee was
that citizens had made preparations
to entertain a goodly number and
were not called upon, the hotels
being ample for the purpose. The
fact that the convention proceeded
without adjournment to transact its
business, holding an all-night ses
sion, doubtiess had something to do
with this, and it was the committee's
duty to provide for probable con
tingencies. It will not hurt Columbus to
read what is said of her treatment
of her guosts last Wednesday. Mr.
Brooks of the Omaha Republican
had this to say in the first dispatch
to his paper: "The citizens of Co
lumbus deserve great credit foi- the
excellence of the arrangements made
for the convention. There is no
lack of hotel accommodations, al
though the attendance is very large.
The hall has a capacity of only a
hundred besides the delegates, but
the preparations have been made
with great care. The convention is
now assembling, and we never saw
a more orderly and perfect arrange
ment. The seats for the different
counties are all alphabetically ar
ranged and distinctly indicated.
The accommodations for the press
are ample, and everything proceeds
without ajar."

Tho Journal's history of local
events would by no means be com
plete with the omission of the events
connecting Columbus with the labor
strike at Omaha lust week.
On Friday afternoon at about 2
o'clock Capt. Lawson of Company I,
Kummer Guards, received a tele
gram from the Adjutant General,
ordering him to get his company in
instant readiness for departure to
Omaha.
Within thirty minutes, under the
active movements of Capt. Lawson,
Lieut. Early and Sergeants Hlnes,
Lockner, Bower and Routson, forty
men were ready to take the train for
Omaha, fully equipped to do any
soldierly duty that they might be
called upon to perform. Besides the
regular members of the company,
there were fourtoeu volunteer? for
the special occasion.
At about 4 o'clock Gov. Nance
arrived iu the city from Osceola by
way of Silver Creek, and imme
diately began using the telegraph,
to ascertain the exact situation of
affairs, and the probability of the
need of troops from this point.
It was near 7 o'clock when the
party left by special U. P. train for
Omaha, In company with Governor
Nance, whero they arrived, unan
nounced, within two hours and a
half. No preparations having been
made for them, it was quite a while
before they found the Smelting
Works, whose property they were
to guard.
The situation at Omaha was about
this; workmen at the Smelting
works had been receiving $1.30 a
day, and, considering their wages
too low for the kind of work, they
had demanded an increase. Failing
to receive it, they had quit work,
and were guarding the establish
ment to prevent others from work
ing. Undor coyer of darkness, two car
loads of negroes who bad beenbro't
from Kansas, (a portion of them
being provided at Council Bluffs
with fire-arms for defence, in case of
attack), were run into the works in
spite of the guard, some personal
encounters taking place, but no
serious outbreak, and this act re
sulted iu great excitement the next
day amoug the strikors and working
men generally, and there was a gen
eral apprehonsion of trouble. All
the workmen in tho manufactures,
Including the U. P. shops, quit work,
aud joiued tho parade on Friday
afternoon.
The first telegram appears to havo
been from J. H. Millard to Gov.
Nance, ou Friday morning that a
riot was imminent and asking that
President Hayes bo telegraphed for,
for the use of two companies at Ft.
Omaha.
The next was from the Smelting
Works asking for immodiato pro
tection. The next from Goo. H. Guy, sher
iff of Douglas county, saying that he
had consulted with Alexander and
Mayor Chase, and thought the Gov.
had bettor aoud the company from
Columbus.
The good people of Omaha and
the State will not only justify the
Governor in his action, but will
thank him for the promptness and
efficiency which, perhaps, saved the
property and the lives of many.
When law is set aside; when tho
public welfare is lost sight of; when
tho ship of state drifts aimlessly in a
Btorm, the sport of tho elemonts,
nothing is safe. Then it is that citi
zens rejoice to see an official do his
duty, see the right and maintain it.
A meeting of the workingmen was
called at the instance of Gov. Nance,
at which addresses were made by
himself and others, and in which he
gave them to understand very plain
ly what the law is, aud what bis
duty would be. He acknowledged
tho right of any man to quit work,
but he can not be upheld iu au at
tempt to keep an other from taking
his place, at the same or even lower
wages.
The See of Monday informs us
that the strike was brought to a
peaceful and honorable close Sun
day afternoon. Mutual concessions
were made by both parties, and so
closed this excitement.
It is only justice to say that Capt.
Lawoon's Co. was highly compli
mented by tho Governor and Adju
tant General for their promptness
in responding to a call of duty, and
for their conduct during their brief
service, and we may add that no
citizen of Columbus, acquainted
with the military record of Capt.
Lawson, and with the general repu
tation of the members of his compa
ny for intelligence and a consecien
tious disoharge of duty, feared for
the eood name of the city. We are
glad to record their return on Mon
day morning, safe and sound. -The
occasion has given opportunity to
show the stnff of which they are
made, and it only remains to hope
that they may always be as success
ful in aiding in the preservation of
public order.
