Atcbision was honored with a
visit yesterday from the Odd Fel
lows of Columbus, Neb. They
came down Wednesday night in a
special car attached to the regular
train, and spent two nights and one
day in our city. Yesterday was
devoted chiefly to visiting the var
ious commercial booms of which
Atchison boasts, and making short
excursions into the country. They
were accompanied by a very excel
lent braBB band which discoursed
music from time to time in front of
the Otis hotiBe, where the party had
headquarters. It is regretted by our
citizens that the party failed to send
notice in advance of their proposed
yisit in order that our people might
have made some preparations for
the entertainment of the party. They
came unheralded Wednesday night,
and yesterday scattered about town
on their own hook. Very few of
our people knew that there was a
visitor in their midst. Atchison

The Globe of Lincoln says that
Lancaster county is 'run" by the B.
& M., and it is "run" by T. M. Mar
quett, attorney for the B. & M. The
Globe suggests that "the republican
primaries be done away with alto-,
gether and that Mr. M. name the
candidates, and for that matter he
might as well name the officers, for
they claim to just as completely
control the election. These are facts
and this is the condition of the Cap
ital City of Nebraska and there is
no use of mincing the matter. Mar
quett controls the couuty. Unless a
man is a railroad man body and
soul, he has no busiuess running for
an office here."
It would seem, from all the indi
cations just now, that the two great
corporations of this State, the U. P.
and the B. & M, are united on one
basis of action, at least, viz: opposi
lion -4.Q legislation adverse to their
interests. Every indication so far,
poiHKto this common understand
ing. Evidently the primaries (the
springs and sources of political
power), have been watched.carefully
tended and closely guarded, all
through the State. If it has not
been made too unanimous, the work
of the corporations at the State con
vention this week may pass through ;
otherwise it may not bf so well.
'We would like to pay our re
spects to the dirty pygmy, who in
the last issue of the Journal, accuses
us of useing brains other than our
own, in the production of the politi
cal articles that have appeared from
time to time in the Era, signed by
lit.. If this pygmean shyster will
furuish us witb his name, and assure
us that he is not an ex-convict or an
escaped lunatic, we will endeavor to
impress it upon his mind that God
Almighty has endowed us with
brains enough to write political
articles, and at the same time take
care of the brainless pygmy who ac
cuses us of plagiarism.'
The above appears in the last Era
over the'signature of Geo. V. Hines.
It will now be in order for the 'dirty
pygmy' to come forward with his
documents. It will not be necessary
for the 'pygmean shyster' to furnish
his name; in fact it will be altogeth
er sufficient and satisfactory if the
aforesaid 'brainless pygmy' will step
to the front and produce the proof.
The wool growing business in this
county has increased amazingly in
the past two years. At the present
time there are nearly 8,100 head of
sheep iu this county, and allowing
an average of four pounds of wool
to each sheep, the clip next spring
will be 32,400 pounds. A woolen
mill to work up this product is one
of the most nrcr.t wants of the
county. Stanton: Register.
We should like to see just such a
report from every county iu Nebras
ka. Those who have ever had a
doubt of the profit of sheep raising
iu Nebraska, ought by this time be
convinced of their error, for certain
ly there is proof enough to the con
trary. When the farmers of eastern
states find their greatest profits in
wool and mutton, with their high
priced hay and grain, and their land
at $75 to $150 an acre, Nebraska
farmers can make it pay abundantly.
Why not? Cover the vast plains
of Nebraska with 6heep, take good
care of them, and Nebraska will be
all right.
From the Lincoln Daily Globe we
clip the following:
"Our esteemed friend, M. K. Tur
uer, of the Columbus Journal, is be
ing urged by his friends to be a
candidate for State Senator from the
Platte-Colfax district. Mr. Turner
is a stalwart aud is good timber
for a senator."
It the custom of confining a Sen
ator's political lease to one term is
to be enforced, then under the rule
Platte county will be entitled to the
privilege of naming the mau, aud
she qertaiuly can find no man better
qualified iu any and every respect,
l ban M. Tv. Turner. But this plan
of changing about from one county
to another is poorly calculated to
add to the usefulness of tho repre
sentative. Forty days in the Senate
can hardly be considered an exten
sive course iu the study of states
manship, and yet, if this plau of al
ternating is carried out, the senator
from this district must expect to
graduate at the expiration of that
time. From a political standpoint it
is perfectly fair, becauso bo under
stood. Schuyler Sun.

The bad and sickuing details of
crime that have come to us the past
two wpeks through our exchanges,
from all parts of the civilized world,
tend to weaken faith in poor hu
manity. We don't remember in any
equal time noticing biich a terrific
array of crimes, some of them of a
horrible, unnatural and revolting
nature, obtaining property by false
pretences, stealing, robbery, arson,
wife beating, incest, suicide, bur
glary, murder. It is a sad picture
to contemplate; many kind acts and
good offices hayo been performed
among the better class of humanity,
but they hav.o not, the past two
weeks, been so carefully noted and
reported.
It appears to us that now Is a good
time for all men who love the hu
man race to put forth an extra effort
to teach their fellows correct moral
principles and aid them to put them
iuto practice under all circumstan
ces of life. If there is any mystery in
imparting this instruction the good
men of the land should work it out
and adopt measures to apply it to
this class of humanity. Criminals
are seldom found in the place where
moral and religious instruction is
imparted. Then it ought to be im
parted in some kind of missionary
work. Who will undertake it?

"Let un legislate."
Ed. Journal, Dear Sir: I have
had the gratifying satisfaction to
listen to and talk with a number of
the influential business men of Co
lumbus at di fie rent times for the last
three weeks, and heard their mutter
ings, both loud and deep, against the
railroad corporations for their ex
tortionate charges on freight, cursing
the rings and monopolies to the
lowest depths. I say gratified, for
it is gratifying to see that the people
are being waked up. It will long be
remembered that over a year ago
we, the citizens of Platte county,
voted to a certain R. R. Co. one
hundred thousand dollars, to build
a competing Hue of road to Colum
bus. We had suffered a monopoly
road a long time, and there was a
strong indication then that the
Anaconda would spread out coils
around us and squelch us out of
existence, if we did not do some
thing to curtail its destroying pow
er; the decision was that we would
give the money and get another
road. Our theory was of an old and
tried remedy, viz: to kill poiflon you
must give poison. We knew that if
the right poison was given in the
proper do6e, at the proper time, to
the proper patient, that it would
have the desired result. We. gave
the medicine and.watched the result,
but by some manipulation that we
could not see into, the wrong one
got the doses, aud has destroyed all
our hopes. In place of taming and
bringing into subjection one Ana
conda, we have two, and of course
are in a two-fold worse predicament.
Now the question ie, What shall we
do to be saved? Some pray for the
thing to sink. Some to repudiate,
and others, to withdraw all support
from the one, and give to the other,
aud by that means kill one. The
onlv feasible plan that I have heard
offered was Legislation. Legislation
would do if it can be brought about ;
if we employ the right Physician.
Let us try. I, for one, can not blame
the R. R. companies for making all
Lthev can, it is human nature, we
all do it, and it is all rignt, n uone
legitimately. Our grain .buyers,
stock dealers and bankers extort at
every opportunity, and so will all
parties, rings and commuuities, it
permitted. Our bankers and money
lenders had to be legislated into the
traces. Our railroads must be ; then,
after that, we. have it in our own
power to break the grain buyers
ring and straighten up things gen
erally. Let us leginlate. I, lor one,
dare vote for any man who has the
nerve to stand up and proclaim to
the public that he will aud dare to
advance the cause and vindicate the
rights of the people. Ler him be
Republican, Democrat, Greenbaeker
or what not. Let us agitate this
questiou, and elect men who are noi
afraid to act for the best Interests nt
the whole people. Corporations are
like individuals: they will take all.
they can, and pinch for more. It is
natural, but it should and must be
curtailed sometimes, and by those
who suffer. The const itution of the
State of Nebraska happily provides
a remedy. Sec. 3, article 11:, reads:
"No railroad corporation or telegraph-company
shall consolidate its
stock, property, franchise, or earn
ings, in whole or in part, with any
other railroad corporation or tele
graph company owning a parallel or
competing Hue; and iu.no case shall
any consolidation take place except
upon public notice of at least sixty
days to all stockholders, in such
manner as maybe provided by law."
Sec. 7. The legislature shall pass
laws to correct abuses, and prevent
unjust discrimination and extortion'
in all charges of express, telegraph
and railroad companies in thiR state,
and enforce such laws by adequate
penalties, to the extent if necessary
for that purpose, of forfeiture of
their property and franchise."
The last two clauses of sec. 4 say :
"And the legislature may from
time to time pas9 laws establishing
reasonable maximum rates of charg
es for the transportation of passen
gers and freight on the different
railroads in this state. The liability
of railroad corporations as common
carriers shall never be limited."
Let us legislate. We all knew
that there was or could be no assur
ance that we would have a compet
ing line of road, even though we
gave the bonds to build it, although
the promises were very fair. We
should and did do all we could to
assist improvement ; we have got the
road, now let us proceed and make
it available, and act like men capa
ble of doing business. John.
