Tfl'o Good Appointment.
Two citizens of Lincoln were ap
pointed yesterday by the President
to federal positions. Hon. Charles
"W". Pierce was appointed to be reg
ister of the land office at Lincoln
and Chas. II. Gould, now of the
Lincoln postofiicc, to be receiver of
public moneys at Miles City, Mon
tana. Tho friends of these two
gentlemen will rejoice at their good
fortune. Tho appointments are de
serving and have been worthily be
stowed. Major Picrco is an old resident of
this county, and a valued citizen.
He has served Lancaster county
with fidelity and honor in the Ne
braska legislature, and the appoint
ment is but a just recompense for
his public and party services. Mr.
Gould is likewise an old timer in
the state, a strong party man and
one who has labored faithfully for
the republican cause. "Charley"
was tho long-time friend of the late
Hon. Frank Welch, who never
lived to see his friend justly re
warded for his party services. Lin

Ieatk of Senator Vita Wyck'.s
Children.
The death of the youngest daugh
ter of Senator C. II. Van "Wyck was
followed yesterday morning by the
death of his only remaining child
and greatly beloved daughter,Marie,
aged eight and one-half years. She
was an exceedingly bright aud win
ning child, and the delight and pride
of her parents. The grief of the
mother is heart-rending, and the sen
ator is almost prostrated. They have
the heart-felt sympathies of every
one, aud may lie who "doeth all
tilings well," soothe and comfort
them, lor humau condolence at such
a time is wholly inadequate.
Having buried thfir oldest daugh
ter at Milford, Pa., Mrs. Van Wyck's
borne, it was decided to take the
remains of the other two there tor
burial. A short aud appropriate
funeral service was held at the
parents' home yesterday afternoon,
H'V. Robert Cleland officiating.
When the family and remains reach
ed this city the senator was notified
by Mr. Derura, C, B. & Q. agent,
that, owing to the strict sanitary law
of Iowa the company would be
obliged to refuse him transporta
tion ; after a consultation of friends
the scnatordecided to inter his loved
oues in Wyuka cemetery for the
present. Dr. Bowen very kindly
offered the hospitality of his home,
aud the funeral will take place from
there to-morrow. Neb. City Press.
Elo Wc Harbor Villains V
Last week we made mentiou of
the capture of a horse thief here by
Chief of Police McMahon. Judgo
Riley of Albion was here on that
day in tho interest of his sou-in-law,
who had paid out money for one of
the stolon horses. lie obtained the
money, aud claims that he was made
the victim of a conspiracy, by which
he came near being placed in the
hands of a band of thieves. "We
quote from the Albion Argus of Oct.
21st, and call upon the Judge to
naino the men engaged in the -'flair:
."When he was about leaving lor
home he was approached by a party
whom he had seen several times
during the day, but was a stranger,
and invited to go in one of the sa
loons and have a glass of beer. The
Judge, desirous of sustaining the
good old English custom, aud withal
being of a social disposition and not
wholly adverse to the beverage,
consented. Almost immediately af
ter taking the beer he began to feel
deathly sick and drowsy, and he
became convinced that he had been
drugged. He hastened to the Albion
train and fortunately reached it he
fore he became unconscious. He
remained in a dead stupor for hours,
aud had he been in the hands of
those who planned and perpetrated
the outrage he would undoubtedly
have fared badly financially, as thej
were evidently after the mouey they
knew he had on his person."
Gone.
Go away for news, is illustrated
by several instances this week. It
was well known to our citizens that
I). C. Lovcland had been engaged
with the Uuion Pacific Co., but it
seems to have been generally believ
ed here that, after being discharged,
ho was reinstated in work for the
Company in the west somowhere.
That idea was given forth, but we
cannot find that there is any truth in
it. The Omaha Herald of the ICth
contained the followiug paragraph :
"Something of a sensation was
created in the district court yester
day when through some "informal
ity" in calling the list of indictments,
the name of D. C. Lovcland indicted
for obtaining money under false pre
tenses was proclaimed. District
Attorney Burnham auswered: Con
tinued for arrest, and the next case
was called. Precisely what the
charge is based upon cannot of
course be known uutil trial. D. C.
Lovcland has been employed as a
right-of-way or claim agent by the
Union Pacific railway, which is pre
sumed to have brought the charge
before the grand jury. The sum is
reported to be $1,200. Lovcland
was a member of the legislature of
1S7S-9, as float representative from
Platte and Colfax counties. He was
formerly one of the firm of Lovcland
& Ellis of Columbus."
It is rumored here that Mr. Love
land is at work at Butte City, Mon
tana, at his carpenter trade; that he
has gone to the British possessions ;
and that he has been placed under
arrest. At this writing, wo cannot
ascertain the true stale of affairs con
cerning his whereabouts. We are
very sorry to bo compelled, even as
a matter of news, to refer to the case,
as Mr. Lovclaud is a man of gener
ous impuNcs, and, if he has fallen
into evil ways, all his old friends
will be sorry to hear of it. "We
could hope that there is 6ome re
deeming feature in the prosecution.
Our Precinct Ticket.
The republicans of Columbus pre
cinct, on Monday afternoon last,
met at the Court House, orgauized
a caucus board, held the polls open
until five o'clock, nominating an
excellent ticket, which will be
found elsewhere in to-day's Jour
nal. There was no particular con
test except over the justices, and B.
Millett and "W. M. Cornelius re
ceived the great body of tho votes
cast.
It is no use whatever to say that
Byron Millett will make a most ex
cellent justice, understanding the
law, aud applying it as impartially
as that knowledge and a conscious
integrity of purpose will guide him.
Mr. Cornelius is not known to our
citizens in the capacity of justice,
but he has the legal ability to acquit
himself with all honor in that sta
tion, and doubtless, when elected,
he will take particular pride and
pains in doing so.
Gus. Becher, the assessor, is thor
oughly well-informed as to the
comparative value of property in
the precinct, is patient, agreeable,
affable, (always three good qualities
iu those who serve the public) and
will, as he has done, give general
satisfaction in tho discharge of his
duties.
John Huber and Henry "Woods,
the constables, are men who take a
personal pride in honoring with
faithful service the stations of trust
to which their fellow-citizens have
called them. Not wealthy, in tho
common usage of that word, they
yet have that independent mind
which wealth cannot buy. Their
duty plainly laid down, they are
tho men who will discharge it fear
lessly. "Wcscott, Godfrey and Campbell
are good selections. A road super
visor should bo promptly at hand to
put things to rights ; to do it so well
that it will stay for awhile, and at
such a reasonable price that more
work cau be done on the roads.
Burgess, Shotwcll and Ragatz as
judges of election, will hold the
scales even, giving every mau his
just due, while Minor and Hocken
berger will keep a clear and faithful
record. As wo said before, the
ticket is an excellent one, and will
add strength to tho county ticket for
this precinct.

iu aud near this neighborhood lately.
The Journal of last week made
mention of that which befel our

looking temporarily, but just as
good as ever.
Rev. A. Hcurich was thrown from
his vehicle lately and run ovor, but

expected.
Dr. Blair, who is engaged with
Dr. Win. Edwards iu the drug

a dark night lately, stepped off on
one side, there being no railing, and
was precipitated a distance dowu of
fifteen feet.
Dr. Edwards has tended all these
injured men, and they have done
well under his treatment.

By the way, and it is just about as
good an item as I can close this let
ter with, we need another grain
buyer. I don't say this because of
any personal feeling I have in the
matter, butit looks to mo as though
wheat etc., shouldn't go right past
our doors down to Columbus. "Wc
know that a very considerable por
tion of money is left in a placo by
those who sell their wheat, and we
feel that wc ought to have tho ad
vantage of that kind of dealing. Be

A sad accident occurred receutly

broken and the unfortunate girl was

A little daughter of Mr. Ramsey
was enticed on a wagon by a man

He was arrested and takou before

porter. This week Mr. C. Christensen
bought of Albert Borgcrs, who
lives near Timbervillc, $320 worth
of butter in ono lot. This butter
was tho product of about thirty
cows for the past three months, and
it was of good uniform color and in
fine condition. Mr. and Mrs. Ber
gers understand the art of butter
making, and what is still more im
portant, the art of keeping it after
it is made. Thoy have no refriger
ator or patent appliances, but have
kept their butter cool aud in splen
did condition during all the hot
weather. It is unnecessary to say
that a fanner like Mr. Bcrgers
raisos good crops he ha a fine
crop of corn this year. Tho Herald
likes to encourage just such thrift
and enterprise as this. Fremont

Prepare ftr Winter.
This subject, liko a good story,will
stand repeating. And yet iu spite
of our frequent warnings there will
no doubt be much suflering among
stock on account of insufficient shel
ter aud piotcctiou from storms. Our
stock don't happen to be provided
with an extra overcoat or pair ot
blankets, consequently it behooves
us to furnish them with protection
from the cold winter blasts. To do
this is not only humane but it pays.
No animal ever fully matured that
had been tailed through the winter.
It takes good caro to make good
stock, and a great part of tho good
care consists iu good Hheltcr.
Not long since one of our largest
feeders told me that he found it
much more profitable to shelter his
tatting stock and keep them grow
ing during tho winter, aud then
when warm weather and grass come,
begin fattening, by feeding plenty
of corn, than to feed tho com during
cold weather.
Calves and yearlings should not
be allowed to run with tho older
cattle, but should have separate
sheds where tho entrance is only
largo enough for them to go through,
but not large enough for the older
oues to enter. They should have
plenty of oats and good hay before
them at least twice a day, with an
occasional feed of oil-cake. Money
spent in this way brings good re
turns. Tho same treatment should
also bo given colts. Allow all kinds
of stock the range of tho stock field
during tho day, but when night
conios see that they aro properly
sheltered. Nebraska Farmer.

Maksiialltown, Iowa, Oct. 19.
Tho continual rain of the past two
weeks has been a great drawback to
farmers in their fall work. There
is yet a large amount of small grain

been done at all.
Most of tho corn would do to
gather if it wero dry enough to
crib, but will not be for at least a
week or two of good weather.
Crops of all kinds have been very
poor this year, and now wet weath
