On last Saturday D. Anderson sold and weighed up to Brown Bros, of Fremont, 125 feeding steers,which will be corn fed the coming winter on Maple creek, Dodge county.

Misses Caroline and Martha Kennedy, who formerly lived at this place, but who have been making an extended visit of several years in Columbus, Nebraska, returned to Cadiz on Thursday of last week, to take up their abode among their former friends and enjoy their native hills once more. Cadiz, (Ohio,) Republican. Someone recently broke several of the large lights of glass in the front of Maennerchor Hall ou 11th street, worth about $15. The man ner in which It wag evidently done precludes the notion of accident. These depredations that do no one any good show a very bad disposi tion on the part of the perpetrator, a disposition which needs only to be intensified to lead to assassination. Iol'x by the Way. Ed. Journal: The Douro, Dur ra or Rice corn of Kansas which has created such n furore from its ability to withstand -evere drought, aud. therefore adapted, to the arid section of Kansas aud Nebraska, I find, upon examination, to be an old ac quaintance, having grown it iu Pen usyhaniti more than forty years ago, uuder the name of African Millet or Guiiien corn, and at that time it was used in some portions of southern Europe as a substitute for wheat, a place which it fills but partially, though it may help to keep famine from the door. It belongs to the same family with sorghum and broom corn, aud therefore, in order to keep it pure, will require to be planted where it will not mix with these. The name Durra h Arabic, evidently bowing its eastern origin aud that it was brought from a coun try not subject to excess of moisture. My friend Heinricb wishes some one to utilize the wild sunflower by heading them and converting the seed into oil. Now, I know not what kind flourish on Shell creek, but I am very sure that no wheat header would top such plants as grow in our section, with any satisfaction wheu sufficiently dry ; besides 1 think he is in error in re gard to the amount of seed or the quantity of oil to be obtained from our native variety; the article he quoted from evidently has reference to the Russian variety, oue head of which I kuow from observation will yield a half pint of seed, or about GO bushels per acre, which if there was sufficient inducement might pay to raise, as it is generally a sine crop. For the winter mod of fowls a por tion mixed with other grain is very beneficial, aud as au oil-producing plant I should think it would yield at least double that of flax ; a more efficient way of utilizing the wild sunflower iu my opinion would be to prevent their goiug to seed aud fertilize the soil by plowing them uuder, and this can "be done very effectually with a sulky plow, so that stalks lott in height cau be buried completely out of sight, and leave the surface as cloar of trash as tho' uone had ever grown. Tho same authority says he has a second crop of wool, and thinks three crops may easily be made in two years, but what advantage if tho threo crops net him no more than two because such proceeding will j require extra winter care to carry the flock through the severe weather. I know that in California this double system of shearing is followed, but their winters are milder than ours, and there i is more particularly for the purpose of getting rid of tho scab, but presume this not to be the o'lject iu his case. Theories are all well enough iu their way, but ''facts are stubborn things" and when these have natural laws to sustain them thev may bo said to be invincible. G. S. T. Hon. T. P. Kennard of Lincoln and J'idge Da pis of Alma spoke at the Court House Tuesday evening to a tair audience of our citizens of both parties, acquitting themselves vory handsomely. Judge Davis showed, to the satisfactiou ot Repub licans at least, the utter absurdity of the great cry for a change," made by the Democratic party. Mr. Ken nard dwelt upon the financial bear ing of the electiou, striking a vein that has not been sufficiently worked by republican speakers, and one which is simply astonishing, when it comes to be seen iu the light iu which Mr. Kennard presents it. "We have beeu engaged, day and night, the past week iu getting ready Treasurer Early's very interesting annual talk to the patrons of his office. We may be allowed to say, in regard to. this serial, which will appear in four issues of the Journal, that, although it looks rather unin viting and even monotonous, yet there are many who will read it with serious faces and downcast looks. There is always a way, however, where there is a will, aud none need det-pair. . . y M. K. Turner, of the Columbus Journal, has been nominated for the office of state senator from the 14th district, composed of Platte and Colfax counties. Mr. Turner is nn old resident of Nebraska aud one of tho best men in the state for the position. The district, politically, is one of the doubtful ones of the state but we firmly believe that 3Ir. Tur ner will reccivo the election. Lin coln Globe. In a business letter from George Spooner at Lincoln be says that the Journal building is being rushed forward ; Quick's three-story build ing is nearly finished ; the wing to the Capitol iB ready for the third windows ; the depot is under "full blast." Lincoln is taking some pretty tall steps this year, and is as lively a town as there is in the west. .. Barker & Croxon.of Silver creek had on exhibition at the State Fair 47 head of sheep, mostly Cotswolds. Among the lot however, were two Leicestershires, 6even Shropshire downs and two Southdowns. These parties keep about 4,000 head of sheep, and those on exhibition were in good condition, and beautiful beep, especially the Cotswolds. Campaign Ztleetiajrs. The State Central Committee have made the following announcements for Columbus: Hon. E. K. Valentine and Gen. John C. Cotviu, Tuesday, October 12th, 7p.ro. Hon. Church Howe, Col. E. F. Smythe and Hon. D.G. Hull, Satur day, Oct. 16th, at 7 p. m. TJial Mmclliii;; Committee. To all whom it may concern : I have learned that democrats are no incensed at my remarks at the Court House Satutday evening, that my own recoid i now their point of attack, by a f-mellin committee at Columbus, wiili its olfactories among the quondam Kti Klux of Dixie It any uumber oi good peisotip wish a reminiscence ot my dt itiocratic ciations thev shall hear me us asso. tullv as the choose, at any time or place theymay select. The son and the nephew of Gov. Nicholls attended the same school, aud were members of the same class with myself. I havo for yearn been acquainted with the States Atty. Gen., elect, ot Louisiana. But the northern democracy are responsible for the electiou of Tweed to tho U S. Senate after his indictment aud .lis crimes were no torious, also of John Morrissey after he had served out a term iu the pen iteutiary for burglary. The chair man of a committee of the demo cratic legislature of Ohio, which abolished the homes for soldiers' orphans, served two years in the Michigan penitentiary. At present ono of their leading campaign ora tors of Ohio served ten years in the penitentiary. Also one of their members of congress is now uuder an indictment for bigamy, has lour living wives. Now, until a parallel to this can be furnished against the republican party, the democrats will ouly gel themselves into new dilemma by any attempt asrainst my record. Very respectfully, E. A. Fulford. - Announcement for Commissioner. PosTvij.i.K, Sept. 31st, 80. Mr. Eiutos:: In your last issue I noticed that the Platte county Re publican convention is to meet shortly at Columbus, aud it seems that Shell creek is well-blessed with office-seekers on the democratic s'do for the coming election, especially i for the office of county commissioner, i but I have not yet learned of any republican iu this community Beck ing that or any other office ; this is not because wp havo not got any men who aru capable of filling offices but for the simple reason that they are no office seekers ; but at the same time they are excellent officers. Among the number of republicans whom it is thought and confidently felt will make an .excellent commis sioner, namely Mr. Joseph Rivet. Mr. Rivet is a well known farmer, and one who is very much respected by all his acquaintances. Ho is a gentleman of intelligence and hon esty, aud is a stalwart republican in the bargain, and one who will not swerve an inch from the right. We, as republicans, have no objections to our democratic neighbors run ning, but at the same time think they will get defeated, especially if Mr. Rivet gets the nomination on the Republican side, which, w hope he will. Rex. Alfred Ntciiiier. Mr. Alfred Stenger, son of 3Iartin and Caroline Stenger, departed this life Tuesday morning, Sept. 21, at 7 o'clock p. ui., after an illness of 18 j days. His sickness was typhoid feve.t and pnumonia. 31 r. Stenger's death is to be greatly regretted by his many friends and acquaintances. He was a young man of firm aud desicivo integrity, strictly honorable iu his dealings with all meu, whoth er acquaintance or strauger. Mr. Stengei' had beeu a resident of this county for the last seven years, and in so short a time, through his hon orable and upright career, made mauy true friends, who do most sincerely sympathize with the be reaved family iu this sudden afflic tion. Although dead aud passed from our midst, he has left a name that will ever be remembered by his persoual friends. J. H. Barrow. Head!
