One of our Platte county thresh

Our cannon is seldom brought
into requisition, and we trust that
wo shall never have occasion to use
it except in seasons of public re
joicings, to scud over the hills, and
across the broad prairies, and up
and down the fertile valleys of Ne
braska, glad tidings to those who
dwell thereon. Ping out, faithful
old gun, and with your voice of
thunder tell of the onward inarch
of commerce; tell of the Providence
which favors the brave, and of the
good, sound judgment of the men
who recognized their opportunity
and failed not to take advantage of
it; tell of the fashioning of the nine
mile link in our chain of commerce
that connects us with the growing
west and the prosperous north, and
that will eventually send our pro
ducts to the Black Hills and bring
cheaper lumber from the pineries of
the north; tell of there-union thus
made with old friends, tried and
true.
Thursday, June 10th, has been set

and enliven the occasion.

On Friday last the saloon-keepers
of the city and a few others
received through the post-office a
circular, of which the following is
a copy :
"session laws 1875, p. 12, sec. 27.
'If any person or persons shall
sutler any game or games whatso
ever to be played for gain upon or
by means of any gaming, device, or
machine of any denomination or
name, iu his or their house, or any
out-house, booth, arbor or erection,
of which he, she or they may have
the care or possession, the person or
persons so ofiending shall each pay
a fine of not less than fifty nor more
than one hundred dollars.'
'A word to tho wise is sufficient.'

It would appear from this that
there is a determination somewhere
to enforce the laws against gam
bling. If done within the strict
limits of law, it will meet with the
approbation of all good citizens.
Elder A. J. Cudney, who is
holding a series of religious tent
meetings near the Presbyterian
church, has, so far, had good au
diences, and his hearers seem to take
a lively interest in his subjects,
which he handles in a masterly way.
A box at the entrance of the tent in
which questions relating to biblical
matters may be deposited by attend
ants, and answered by the Elder, is
a very good featuro of his meetings,
and calculated to cieate a still deep
er interest in many to understand
the readings of the Great Book. His
meetings will be continued the re
mainder oflhis week and probably
a part of next. Drop in and hear
the Elder, for we are sure you will
be well repaid.
The train due here last evening
at S:15 did not arrive until after 11
o'clock. Between Columbus and
Lost Creek the rear portion of the
train became detached four times,
owing to a short coupling pin. The
eugiue and forward cars ran two
miles the first time before discover
ing their loss ; and all this time the
conductor and passengers were
swearing in italics. Madison
Chronicle.
At Council meeting Monday
evening, several petitions for side
walks were referred to the appro
priate committee. Tho bonds of
druggists Stillman, Dowty, AVeaver
it Co., and Heintz wero approved,
and a druggist's permit to sell liquors
ordered. Street work iu various
parts of the city was ordered. The
three ordinances, heretofore referred
to in the Jouicxal, were passed.
The meeting was adjourned to next
Saturday evening, when the annual
estimate for levy of taxes will be
made.
Tho Jouun'al had something to
say recently of F. Brodfeuhrer's
irrepressible tendency to convert
every occasion into a means of jok
ing. He took occasion last week to
secure the insertion of a first-class,
two-line sell on one of his neighbors,
and of course the Journal ia com
pelled to acknowledge the corn, and
we are also compelled to issue the
following proclamation to all Jour
nal reporters and newsgatherers,
and to all others who may venture
to give us information at second or
third hand from Brodfeuhrer, "Put
not your trust in him. He is a b-a-d
man, because he will buy you for
nothing and sell you at a good deal
less."
Attention, Farmers!
