ForSalk. A dwelling-house and

the money is needed. The house is
uew and cost more money tbau is

further particulars inquire at the
Journal office.
The nights are getting frosty,
but plenty of bay can yet be put up,
and it is a good idea to keep every
thing moving aud make all the hay
possiblo while the weather contin
ues fit for it. Those farmers who
have stalks enough for feed will
doubtless find profit in selliug their
hay.
We have always acted upon the
theory that the newspaper is the
proper medium of exchauge of
opinion on matters of public inter
est, and for this reason, the columus
of the Journal have been open for
any and all communications, not of
fensive to good taste aud propriety,
without reference to tho individual
notions of the editor.
Dr. S. A. Bonestcel takes a trip
shortly through tho east, iutendiug
to spend most of his time in the
best hospitals of Montreal, Boston,
New York and Philadelphia. Dr.
B. now has the reputation of being
one of the best surgeons in cen
tral Nebraska, aud his desire to still
farther increases his store of knowl
edge and his skill is certainly com
mendable. We are informed that recently
a car load of hay presses were re
ceived hero on the U. P. for parties
in Schuyler, and that the reason
shipment was made to this point
was that the froight on the car-load
cost $100 less than if sent to Schuy
ler, although the distance to that
point was less. ThiB looks as though
our new railroad waB somewhat of
a competing lino.
The republican atato central
committee have decided to open the
republican campaign in this state on
the 29th day of September, at 7
o'clock p. m. by announcing speak
ers for forty-two different appoint
ments throughout the state on the
same evening. Those announced
for Columbus are Paul Vander
voort and W. Bennett; Schuyler,
Hon. L. W. Colby; David City,
Hon. G, M. Lambertson ; Albion,
Watson Parriah ; Osceola, A. M.
Post.
J. II. Brouelette, recently of the
firm of Oman & Brouelette, of the
Schuyler Marble "Works, intends
locating a marble shop in ColumbuB.
Liu stock has been purchased and is
now on the road, and his shop will
probably be opened next Monday.
Mr. B. has been the workman of his
old firm for the last year, and Jus
work is scattered through all this
region of country. He has had ten
years of experience and will estab
lish here an institution that will be
a credit to the place.
The entertainment given at the
M. E. Church last Wednesday and
Thursday evenings, representing an
"Old New England Home" with
their aunts, uncles, cousins, np to
grand-mother for guests with their
old-fashioned customs, their supper
of baked beans and pork, pumpkin
pies, and the old 6tyled "Singing
School," represented to life, afforded
a wonderful amount of innocent
amusement for all present, and will
loug be remembered. Tho enter
prise on the part of the ladies of the
church proved a financial success.
"Constant Reader" 6ends us a
few words of appreciation of our
efforts in publishing a family news
paper, and, among other things, says
"I haye a family of young folks
whose reading I am yery particular
about, but when I see them open the
Journal I have no fears, for I know
they will find something that will do
them good and give their minds
right thoughts and ideas to feed
upon." What we all need is incent
ives to better deeds, which of course
can only come through better
thoughts. We all attain to self-respect
through self-control and a pro
gressive life, and without apprecia
tion of what is food in ourselves, we
can never know the worth of our
fellows. To be the firm friend of
what is good in the world is, to our
thinking, the higbeit function of
1 manhood or womanhood.
It is with pleasure that we re
port that Mrs. John Carbett, who
suffered so intensely last week from
straugulated hernia, is recovering
so nicely, aud able to sit up in bed.
Tho case was critical iudecd at one
time, and to see this lady recover
when even iu a worse condition
than Mr. Anderson, a strong man
brought down so suddenly to de
part this lite from its effects, is re
markable. Dr. T. E. Mitchel of Co
lumbuB performed the nice surgi
cal operation, and was ably assisted
by Dr. Clark of this place. It shows
the prudence if not the wisdom of
Dr. Clark, our young physician, iu
calling to his timely assistance a
physician and surgeon of the exper
ience of Dr. Mitchel in critical cases
of this kind. Genoa Leader.
The "Old New England Home"
at the M. E. Church ou Wednesday
and Thursday evouinga of last week
was quite entertaining. William
Terrill acted grand-pa to perfection ;
with his white locks he looked as if
he bad been out iu the cold aud
fro9t. Grand-ma Means was repre
sented by Miss Mary Turner and
was the center of attraction ; her an
tiquated dress and motherly voice
showed clearly that she meant to
run things in the family to suit her
notion? of proper house-keeping.
Mrs. Callison represented aunt
Matilda, at the old fashioned spinning-wheel
and showed us how our
mothers used to perform that labor.
Miss Lou Shannon figured as Mir
anda Means aud Miss Rose Rickly
represented Jemima Perkins from
the "old country." Miss Lizzie
Davis acted as aunt Jerusha, aud
Miss Josie Callison as Elizabeth
Meaus or "little Betsey." Aarou
and Solomon wero represented by
Callison aud RadolDh with his huge
tuning fork who conducted the an
cient singing master to life. Mr.
Reed acted as Bud. The supper
table was set aud arranged in an
cient style with the principal lux
uries of that day, including tho iu
di6pensible "Jonney Cake" and ac
companiments, beans and pork.
The old fire-place was a goodimi
tatiou, and carried us back to our
boyhood days. Tho "Singing Skule"
and other pieces were well rendered.
Altoether, the entertainment was
an enjoyable affair, and a financial
success. F.
REPUBLICAN RALLY.
Speech or Colonel IlHffinM.
It is designed to open the Repub
lican campaign in this county on
Saturday evening next at the Court
House, and everybody is invited to
attend. Let there be no formality
whatever. Tho spontaneous mo
tions of republicans towards success
are worth more than all formal
programmes.
Col. A. P. Huggins, who has been
through the southern Ku Klux mill,
will be present and give some
account of how republicans, union
ists, patriots, whose only crime is
that they love their country, were
treated in the south after tho war.
Turn out aud hear him, ye liberty
loving democrats, and know for
yourselves from the lips of a living
witness how men are proscribed and
beaten and killed merely for being
what all of us in the north profess to
be, union-loving citizens.
Let every man turn out, the
speakers with their speeches, the
sufferers with their experience, the
songsters with their songs, and let
us have from this on such a ringing,
rollicking, lively and telling cam
paign as PKtte county never saw
before. We can start the ball now,
and let us keep it rolling until Platte
county shall have been entirely re
generated and redeemed.
As Gen. Grant says, It will not do
to be beaten now. We are right, and
we know it. Our political oppon
ents' are wrong, and they ought to
bo made aware of it before this cam
paign ends. If it was ever neces
sary to shoot rebellion down, it is
now necessary to vote it down.
Turn out and do your duty, as
republicans and patriots. By order,
Committeeman Columbus precinct.
LORD'S LATEST.
The B. & O. Red Rook- 1 1- Val
c as a, Text-Book lor Politi
cal Reference and It Exceed
It ftt Beauty ana Work of Typ
ographical Art.
From the Chicago Tribune.
The Baltimore & Ohio, since Lord
assumed sway of the Passenger
Department, has most emphatically
come to the front in taking, and at
the same time elegant advertising
matter. Recognizing the elevation
of taste in matters of advertising
character, and the demand as well
for something of more value than
the mere setting forth of the advan
tages of the road, the B. & O. has
just issued what it terms the "Red
Book." It is beyond all comparison
the cleverest thing of the kind ever
issued by a railroad company, and
not only this, but a specimen of typ
pographical art it is a perfect gem.
The cover, designed and engraved
by the American Bank Note Com
pany, and the book itself from, the
press of Knight & Leonard, of this
city, very many persons will keep it
for its beauty alone. But while the
artistic has been the aim in the ex
ternal appearence, the contents of
the little work will be found of
the utmost value from now until tho
close of the present political strug
gle. Without pretentions, and sim
ly setting forth facts, the B. & O.
HedBook it beyond all comparison
the handiest and most compaet pol
itical text-book of the campaign.
Compiled, results reached and ar
ranged by au old journalist of many
years' experience in political statis
tics, the states are so placed, and tho
detail so carefully attended to, that
at a glaucu one comprehends the sit
uation iu eadi state. First, the vote
of each party in 1S7G is given, with
the total vote of the state, the
majority aud electoral vote. Next
comes the details of the latest election
of state officers, followed by the
political complexion of the legisla
ture, with the fact noted that a
United States Senator is to be elected
this wints?, if such be the case.
Then comes the result iu each con
gressional district with foot-notes
so clear aud concise that the sit
uation in different districts is at
once apparent. Finally the popu
lation of tho state in 1870 is noted,
followed by the vote for president
in 1872, with ratio of votes that year
to the population of two years
before. This is mado the basis of
calculation of the total vote of each
state this year, tho figures given of
population, 1880, being from the
latest obtainable information from
the CenstiB Bureau. As these sta
tistics cover every state in the
Union, and the book' so Indexed as
to permit of instant reference, the
great value of the little work may
readily be appreciated. It is not ou
sale nor will it be distributed with
out regard to use. All wishing a
copy have but to drop a note or
postal to C. K. Lord, Baltimore,
Md., and it will be promptly mailed
to the address given.
lotting from Humphrey.
Editor Journal: Seeiug com
munications fr.om most all sections
of the county in your valuable paper
frequently, I thought it would hard
ly be consistent to leave this vicinity
unheard from.
"Humphrey" is the name given to
a beautiful and prosperous, although
newly-laid-out town, about ten miles
north of Platte Centre on the U. P.
railroad, and among its business
establishments are a hotel, drug
store, lumber yard, three grain ware
houses, a saloon (we regret to say) a
general merchandise store, a black
smith shop, and a butcher shop ; sev
eral other buildings are in course of
erection.
That town offers excellent facili
ties to any one looking for a busi
ness location.
As we are informed, Wm. Eimefs
shipped the first wheat over the
new road since its construction, pay
ing (as we are informed) G2 cents
per bushel, when the Journal quo
ted wheat of the same quality at GO
cents at Columbus. We mention
this aB a matter of news and not as
an advertisement, Mr. Editor.
The country surrounding Hum
phry consists of as beautiful a section
of lands as Nebraska, the garden of
the west, possesses.
Tho school in District No. 41,
which is under the superintendence
ofT. W. Henrich began its labors
on the 1st, and is well attended.
The crops in this vicinity are good,
with the exception of corn, which
will probably notaverago more than
half a crop.
Farmers all seem to be busily en
gaged ; some haying, some plowing
aud others threshing.
As electiqn approaches, we sup
pose the voice of candidates for the
office of commissioner is heard, al
though no other county office falls
vacant.
Judging from the number of mar
riage notices appearing in last week's
Journal we imagine tho words,
"Will you have me?" were oft re
peated. So say we all of us, but more es
pecially An Observer.
The Railroad Situation.
Mr. Editor : To use the expres
sion that the peoplo of Columbus
aud Platte county "are squealing,"
is only to vulgarly express tho truth.
It is only false pride for us to try to
hide the fact, that we have been be
trayed and deceived in the A. & N.
R. R. matter. Wo must make a
united effort, and raise a breeze, that
will come to the ears of the mag
nates who control the B. & M. R. R.
and compel them to fulfill the prom
ises that were made when we voted
the $100,000 bonds. It is a lying
attempt to evade the promises made,
and an insult to the intelligence of
the people of this county to say that
they (the B. & M. R. R.) had no
benefit of the bonds. There is no
question that they received the full
benefit of said bonds, less the amount
paid for assistance in getting them
carried, however much or little that
may have been. Do the people of
this county know that the B. & M.
R. R. is building up a railroad party
or ring here more dangerous than
than the U. P. R. R. ever had? con
structing it by means of passes aud
freight discriminations to citizens
who would repel with scorn the
idea that they had 6old themselves
for such favors, but such is the case,
and they bavo received less pay than
did poor Lovcland and Kinney, who
were ostracised for their "sin."" The
B. & M. company refuse to fulfill
tho common requirements of justice
in regard to goods they damage in
transportation, that are owned by
those they cannot or care not to use.
Do the people of this county know
that it costs more to ship a bushel of
wheat or ton of coal than it did be
fore our 1100,000 competing lino
came in? Mr. Editor, keep these
facts before the people and perhaps
we may find a remedy.
Oxk who will Have to Help
Pay the Bonds.
