We clip from the Lincoln State
Journal the article which follows,
written specially for that city, aud
while we personally know of none
in this city to whom its charitable
features would apply, yet it is possi
ble that such cases exist, and if so,
we recommend the articlo to our
citizens who arc able and willing to
relieve distress wherever found :
"For much of the poverty of which
we read, and that we see around us,
there is no necessity not in this
country at least. For several years
past labor has been abundant, and
wages have been sure. There has
been no cry of hard times, no
mourning over unproductive fields
and empty bins, no complaining of
a scarcity of money, aud no feeling
of doubt and uncertainty as to the
future or the present prosperity of
the country. The times have been
as good as one could wish, and the
general wealth of the country has
increased wonderfully. Thc.-e are
some of the reasons why the cry of
poverty, which is feebly heard in
this aud other cities, sounds strauge
ly incongruous. So long as labor
is abundant, as it is iu thi state,
aud wages good those who suffer
no bodily ills, the well and stroug,
have no cause to complain of pov
erty and waut. Unfortunately, how
ever, there are those who are feeble
in body, men, womeu and children
who have been deprived by disease
or accident of the power to earn
their bread, and it is of these that
the Journal would speak, and for
whom it would ask sympathy and
assistance. The bitter cold weather
of the past few days should awaken
a feeling of interest in this matter
and make humanitarians of us all.
There may be very little real des
titution in this city, and, again, there
may be more than will ever come to
light. It is not strange that people
should try to hide their poverty;
this is, at best, a cold and uncharita
ble world, and it is often that the
really deserving arc neglected aud
sympathy and assistance are fre
quently misapplied. To search out
the really destitute, the poor and
suffering of the city, should be the
purpose of those of our people, and
they are many, who are abundantly
able to give.
There is an organization of noble
women iu this city devoted to char
itable purposes, and wc have no
doubt it is even now at work re
lieving such as are known to be iu
want. This should be encouraged,
not by mere words alone, but by
contributions from the well filled
purses of those who are wealthy and
prosperous. A few dollars each
from the many who arc able to give
in this city, might relieve a great
deal of suffering this winter, ami the
same could not be better distributed
than through this organization of
Christian workers. There is anoth
er way of meeting the wants of
those who are in distress, and that
is by individual effort. The city of
Lincoln is favored in the respect of
having few needy people, but the
cold winter, which may be long and
severe, will no doubt bring to light
many cases of real distress, and
those should be looked after at once,
whether by the charity of individu
als or through the effort of a society
devoted to this aim. If we have any
poor iu our midst who are unable to
provide for themselves this winter,
they should be taken care of. It is
a d ii ty that the city owes to itself;
it is only common humanity to re
lieve the destitute, and whatever be
the number of that class iu (his city
this winter, there should be no lack
of sympathy and assistance from
those who have plenty themselves
and something to spare."
It is stated that a bill will be early
introduced into the next congress
to abolish what is known as the
mint furnace of the treasury de
partment, aud transfer that which
pertains to coinage to the treasury
of the United States where it prop
erly belongs. While congress is
providing for the coinage, it might
with propriety anticipate the green
back question, and give it a thor
ough investigation, and get ready
by proper legislation to provide on
the part of the government a paper
currency, in the shape of green
backs, which the peop'e very much
need and will iu a fow years imper
atively demand. It should not be
delayed until the expiration of the
present banking system, and then be
compelled to engage in the work
while a fearful financial crisis bro't
about by a variety of causes, mostly
by the conflict of interested opin
ions as to what system would be
the best. The people will demand
that the government shall issue and
be responsible for all paper money
put in circulation, and if any num
ber of citizens desire to engage iu
the busiuess of banking let them
have the pleusure of banking on
government money in the shape of
greenbacks for which the govern
ment is responsible.
Mr. During, a German surgeon
living in Williamsburg, reported at
headquarters last week in New York
that his wife aud five children had
disappeared unaccountably immedi
ately upon their arrival in this coun
try. Mr6. During had with her
nearly .$7,000 ; aud her husband be
lieves she had been enticed away by
a man who had accompanied her as
a friend. Mr. During had estab
lished himself in busiuess here aud
6cut for his .family. She sold the
property and arrived in New York
on the 2d of September, accompa
nied by a man named Herman Bar
ber, a friend of the family, but
Duriug did not know of their arri
val until a short time since. He has
employed a detective.
A dispatch from Leadville to
Elgin, III., says Stephen S. Taylor of
the latter place died at Leadville on

Leadville. He had been at Lead
ville about a week looking after his
interests.
What an enormous expense to
the people is the figure-head of the
government in England, known as
the royal family, aud of what earth
ly use are they, so far as the legiti
mate functions of government are
concerned ! The queeu has applied
to Gladstone to have him ask Par
liament for a grant of 1200,000, to
enable the Prince of Wales to pay
some of his more presi'ig debts,
and add $50,000 to his sul.iry. He
already has au allowance of $200,000
a year as salary, besides au annual
income of $350,000 from property iu
Cornwall; the Princess has an al
lowance of $50,000. In the face of
all this $600,000 a year for the sup
port of this branch of the royal
family the august Queen begs " tho
powers that he" to como down with
another $200,000. Gladstone is re
ported as firmly refusing to ask
Parliament, and suggesting that it
would be much more becoming in
the Queen to help her sou out of
her own enormous income, which is
some $3,000,000 a year.
The contract signed yesterday by
the Baltimore fc Ohio, Beading &
New Jersey Central railroads-completes
another through line between
Chicago and New York. The Bal
timore & Ohio have been for a num
ber of years past restrained from
making eastern connections at Phil
adelphia with the Reading road
which connects near Trenton on the
Delaware with the New Jersey Cen
tral. A favorable decisiou having
removed these obstacles, the Balti
more & Ohio will now be enabled to
use the magnificent road bed and
terminal facilities of the latter road
giving them through connections
from Chicago to tho foot of Liberty
street in New York. The new line
though somewhat longer than tho
other routes will make equally rapid
time and will compete for first-class
and emigrant traffic with the Erie,
Pennsylvania aud New York Cen
tral. It is intimated that a break iu
passenger rates will speedily result
from the increased competition.

Humors at Paris on the 20th say
that another Nihilist conspiracy,
even more terrible and more care
fully orgauized than any of the plots
heretofore discovered, is afloat there,
which may, if executed, cost the
Czar and many innocent people their
live3. The Czar has lost much of his
popularity sinco his morganatic
marriage. A later dispatch from
Paris to the London Telegraph says
that there is an unconfirmed report
of another attempt on the life of the
Czar, and that he has been fatally
wounded.
The large works of the St. Louis
Silver Co. at Chittenden, a 6hort
distance from the city, were des

A bold outrage was committed
in the vicinity of La Platte in Sarpy
county on a Bohemian; when re
turning from Omaha with his team
and wife, he was overtaken by a
man who was permitted to ride iu
his wagon, who, while thus accom
modated, dealt a deadly blow on the
Bohemian, and knocked him from
the wagon, and then drove off with
the wife and team. Whether the
man killed the woman is not known,
and his whereabouts are not known
A mutual arrangement has been
concluded between the Baltimore &
Ohio, the Philadelphia & Reading
and the New Jersey Central rail
roads for the use of each others
tracks, by which all three of the
roads expect to be benefitted by the
traffic, and it is claimed that the
route to Chicago and the west will
be as short and as expeditious as by
several of the other trunk lines.
