Tho Lincoln Daily Globe of the
30th ult., has this mention: "Our
esteemed friend M. K. Turner, of
the Columdus Journal ie being
urged by his friends to be a candi
date for State Senator from the
Platte-Colfax d'.fatrict. Mr. Turner
is a stalwart and is good timber for
a Senator.'' "Wo thank the Globe
and our friends for the favorable
mention, but desire to say that at
present we arc not a candidate for
Senator or any other office.
J. E. North would like to know
why it is that he pays moro now for

last year. Then the freight on a car

other route. "We can't answer him.
It seems to be generally understood
that all tho railroad companies of
Nebraska now want of the people is
not to legislate on freights. It is
rumored that the Atchison & Santa
Fe, the C. B. & Q and tho U. P. are
about to comolidatt,
Xho Xex! Itcli.
Some time ago a number of hor
ses affected with this highly couta
gions disease were brought into this
county, and caused consternation in
the western portion of Flatte aud iu
Nance couuty, because it has proved
to' be very troublesome to get rid of
keep in check. Tho poor j
or even
auimal suffers torment, gets thin
and poor, become ore and scabby,
and if not relieved dies a miserable
dcuth. Doubtless the disease is
what is known among horse-men as
the munge, similar to the itch amoug
mon and the scab in sheep, all caused
by au inpect nearly iuvisible to tho
naked eye, which burrows in the
flesh and breeds very rapidly, and
which must be destroyed before a
radical cure can be effected. Those
who have horses will appreciate
every fact published. H. II. Ames
of this city haslhad under his charge
for Bome time a horso affected by
the c'omplaiut,and has treated it
with remedies recommended by dif
ferent authors: for destroying the
icarus of tho itch, scab and mange,
but until recently he did not suc
ceed in fiudiug the remedy which he
came upon iu Jounings's work upon
the horse. He has made three ap
plications of the remedy at a cost of
$1.50, putting the animal Into new,
clean quarters each time. This is
absolutely necessary, as the small
insect will cling to manger, feed
box, &c. The remedy used is acetic
acid.
..
The City Council have estimat
ed that $200 may be needed by them
for printing during the year. Of
course there Is nothing that will
compel them to spend the entire
amount if less will do, and that a
great deal less will do, the Journal
is very sure of. unless the amount
of printing shall be wonderfully
increased by the present Council,
which wc apprehend will not be the
case. The Council have asked for
bids for doing such work as is re
quired to be done iu a newspaper.
While they are upon this subject
we desire to suggest that it would
perhaps be well enough to make a
revision of the laws now in force
and publish them in pamphlet form
for the benefit of members of the
city government and others inter
ested. This work need. not cost
more than $15 to $40, according to
the amount of matter, and would
certainly be worth that, as a con
venient form for reference. If the
revision of the laws can not be con
strued to be a part of the official
duties of the City Att'y, for which
he receives a salary of $300, some of
our attorneys could doubtless be
employed at a reasonable rate to do
that service.
The Era of the 29th ult, con
tained an article writteu by Geo. V.
Hinos, and beginning with this par
agraph :
"Our gentlemanly and courteous
friend tho editor of the Journal, in
a late issue of his paper, seemed to
have been in great distress oyer a
statement that had been made by an
ardent democrat to tho effect that
the democratic party "had furnished
a large portion ot tho men who put
down the rebellion."
All that the Jourmal ever said on
the subject was contained in the
following, from our columns of
June 2d ; "An ardent Democrat of
this city asserts that more volun
teers, were furnished to the Federal
army, during the Rebellion, from the
slave states, than from the free
states." The assumption of Mr.
Ilines that the Democratic party, as
a party, furnished more union sol
diers from its ranks to put down the
slaveholders' rebellion, than the Re
publican party did, is only sur
passed by the declaration of the "ar
dent Democrat" above roferred to.
"We are under personal obliga
tions to Hon. J. C. McBride of the
Nebraska Fanner for a ride to the
stock range of McBride & Druse,
situated near the city of Lincoln,
where these cuterprising gentlemen
have a number of thoroughbred cat
tlo consisting of Galloways, Here
fords, Guernseys, Jerseys aud Dur
hams. Besides the thoroughbreds,
they have a tine lot of good "grades."
They are working up a good busi
ness in fine stock of different kinds,
as well as conducting the best agri
cultural magazine in the west, a
credit to its proprietors and to the
State.
On Saturday last, while the
procession of Barnum's show was
passing down Ilth street, some ono
entered the office of Jaeggi & Schup
bach and took from their money
drawer $3.50 in small change. -Mr.
Schupbach was out of tho oflice ouly
about three minutes; fortunately,
before going out ho had taken $50 in
bills from the drawer, and placed it
in the safe, or tho" thief would have
bad a bigger haul.

Creston a s Summer Kcsorti
Mr. Editor : It is probable thRt i
of tho 15 millions of people in the J
United States, vary few know what
a deservedly popular summer resort
Creston,' Nebraska, ie becoming.
Since about tho middle of June
seekers after health, rest and pleas-
ure have been coming, and wo hear
of elill others hoping to reach thib
favored locality. First Mr. G. W.
K.bler household was made glad by
the arrival ot his father-lu-law Mr.
Cornwrll from Indiana, who enjoy
ed his short stay very much. Next
came our esteemed fellow-citizen
Mr. Wm. Jackson, who had been
absent from his family on business
in Nov; Jersey for six months past.
He surprised us all, as no oue was
expecting him till Christmas; after
a two weeks visit ho returned to his
business. Mrs. Hattie Riker,'of
Newark, N. J., came out with Mr.
Jackson to visit her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. John Drako, and sisters
Mrs. Andcrman and Jackson. Mrs.
Riker is delighted with tho country
and is still enjoying her visit. This
week her husband Mr. R. P. Riker
arrived from Newark to meet her.
Just before Mr. Jackson went east
again Mr. "Wm. Van Ness, another
eon-in-l&w of Mr. Drake, arrived
from Newark. He took in our puro
air, and enjoyed tho fishing and
hunting, and returned homo feeling
stronger and with a much better
color. I tell you, Mr. Editor, this is
tho country in which to get a good
healthy color, and a rich bloom put
on pale faces. Two weeks ago Miss
Sara B. Mason of Davenport, Iowa,
arrived to spend the summer with
her aunt, Mia. W. N. McCandlish,
and this week that household was
again delighted by the arrival of
Mr. and Mrs. John T. Bell and chil
dren of Omaha. Mrs. B. is a sister
of Mr. McCandlish. The legal fra
ternity know Mr. B. very well as the
law reporter of 2d Judicial District.
A few dayp ago Dr. Chamberlain,
who is a brother of the India Mis
sionary of that name, reached Cres
ton to visit our new settler. Dr. Jno
Scudder. I think still others have
been hero, but this is a pretty good
showing for a mouth's arrivals at
this new not watering but breath
ing place.
Of course' harvest is engaging
everybody, and all the machinery is
busy from the self-bindor to tho
good old fashioned cradle.
