We arc iu receipt of a commun
ication signed J. M. Robinson, con

have another newspaper. It was
rumored last week that we were to
have another Democratic paper there
is also strong talk of a German pa
per printed entirely at home. If
these three cuterprises come to a
successful issue, it ought to make
times lively six- newspapers.
Hon.'G. W. Collins of Pawnee
City spent the Sabbath in Columbus.
He spoke to the Garfield and Arthur
club at Schuyler Saturday evening.
Mr. Collins will be a candidate for
Lieut. Governor, before the Repub
lican State Convention next Wed

To succeed John AValker as Co.
Commissioner we hear the following
suggested as possible caudidates, on
the Republican side : Olcson, Mun
son, French, Irwin and Truetnan.
As this is the most important office
for the general Jiitcresfs of the
couuty, the best selection should be
made, and so harmoniously mado,
too, that we shall be able "to elect
our candidate by a handsome ma
jority. Last. Sunday while Win. Law
rence and Henry Morris wore out
driving, one of tho buggy wheelR
went into a hole, landing Win. and
the lines on terra jirma, leaving
Henry to jump out at his leisure and
as good opportunity should offer a
sort of HobHon's choice, however,
at best. The Iiorso kept on at a
good gait for awhile, and was finally
brouglif'to bay,' without injury to
man, horse or buggy.
Henry Woods recently received
a letter from his brother, who now
lives at Ellensburg, Washington
Ty. Under date of July 20th, he
was writing of cold weather and
ocean breezes. He has got himself
1G0 acres of land, built himself a
hotm thereon, aud is now wonder
iug whether ho will strike a gold
bonanza on his place. It seems
there is a gold mine near by, in
which two nuggets were recently
found, one worth .$200, the oth
er $300.
Charles Disfelhorat, living a
short distance east of the city, left at
the Journal office Thursday a splen
did sample of Rose potatoes. They
wero beauties. His method of rais
ing them consisted of sticking the
seed into the prepared ground with
very light cover and then placing
over them about a foot of straw, and
thus prepared they were left to
grow without further cultivation.
This method, if it produces such
potatoes as Charlie's, will be worth
hundreds and thousands of dollars
.to the farmers of Platte county.
Complaints are still entered at
these headquarters concerning the
Platte river bridge. The specifica
tious arc that every here and there
a board is off from the upper floor,
and in some of these places the under
floor is rotten; that the planks in
many places arc loose; that from
the approach on the north end, to
the ground, there is a direct fall of
several inches, enough to occasion
the breaking of the axle of a farm
wagon tho other day. In this con
nection attention is'callcd to a talk
with commissioner Walker In an
other column.

he will soon put a traveler upon the
road -to sell everything in his line, in

dable, and worthy of imitation by

his stock here by the addition of
two car loads of goods. Those who

Sour .Hill-.
Crf.ston, Aug. 21st, 'SO.
Mr. Editor : Will you please tell
in your next issue, if sour milk is
I have a child that is ravenous for
it, will eat, two and three cup full,
if not denied, and some of my neigh
bor's children show the same crav
ing, but we are ignorant of its
effects. Please enlighten us ou the
subject in your columns, and oblige
Constant Readers.
The writer of the above very
properly regards the newspapers as
a medium of exchange of opinions.
The writer hereof is not a physician,
but, haviug consulted one on this
subject, we give his answer briefly,
that sour milk is not injurious; that
the child craved some acid, and that
sour milk being at hand he took it.
Tho probability is that if apples,
orauges, lomons or something of the
sort equally as palatable were fur
uished the children would not crave
the sour milk. We once know a
very aged man who made a rule of
drinking about a quart of buttermilk
a day, and claimed that it had pre
served him pouud and healthy.
Another man of our acquaintance
used clabber aa a drink, and thrived
upon it. This we regard as a good
test in all things. Too little atten
tion is paid to matters of living;
health is the first consideration.
C A. Speice, Esq., and family
returned last week from a visit to
St. Joseph, Mo. Mr. S. was highly
pleased with the city, its people,
business, its appearance, &c, not
withstanding that it had been suff
eriug a long time for rain, together
with thecountry for 15 milesarouml,
and that the dust on the road's in the
outskirts of the city was several
inches deep. Wells were failing and
cisterns wcro'boing filled from the
river. The county court houe, Mr.
Speice thinks, is the finest structure
of the kind he has ever seen. It is
large, very substantial, on high
ground, aud make a splendid ap
pearance. The city had just iiniOic d
laying 10 or 18 miles of pipe tor
their now water works, and were
testing it.
:
Commissioner John Walker was
in town Saturday and iu allusion to
what he read in the Journal of the
18th concerning the Platte river
bridge not being properly finished,
he says this season of the year is the
most busy time, but in a short time
the Commissioners will sec to the
wants of the county at large. The
Board will soon order one or two
car loads of cottonwood plan!;, and
then they will give the Platte bridge
a general overhauling in the line of
planking. John says he would al
ways recommend cottonwood plank
for flooring, as it will last twice as
long as pine. He expresses the sen
timent that it augurs well for Co
lumbus to sco teams coming 20 miles
from the south to sell thoir produce
here.
