Someone recently broke several

precludes the notion of accident.
These depredations that do no one
any good show a very bad disposi

disposition which needs only to be
intensified to lead to assassination.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

Stengei' had beeu a resident of this
county for the last seven years, and
in so short a time, through his hon
