Post, E-q , has returned from the west, where he has been ab sent on legal business. During bis stay he saw George Turner, and other Nebraska friends. He reports that Denver has a population of 60,000, which will probably be increased to 100,000 in two or three years. Lead ville is receiving considerable atten tion by prospectors and speculators. Trees, trees, plant trees, now and again, all you can. Prepare every thing, and take a day or two to put them in. Select good varieties of both forest and fruit tress, and plant them In convenient places. Plant them for their fruit and product; plant them for shade ; plant them for ornament; plant them for wind break, to keep the snow drifts from your houses; plant tbem as harbors for the singing birds of heaven ; plant them for their beauty to the eye ;plant tbem, not only for your own use, but also for the generations which are to come after you. As a matter of money investment it will pay you richly, in the increased worth of your property, if at any time you may wish to dispose of it Plant trees now. Omaha can boast of highwaymen who "hold" men up and go "through" them for "plunder." Three or four instances of this kind have occurred lately. Two printers who were thus waylaid didn't contribute much to this forced donation, one having no valuables, the other but 25 cts. Oma ha needs a good many more police men, more Jight after night, and, what would be more effective with that and every other city, the "bouncing" of all who have no visible means of support. The man who hasn't ac cumulated means sufficient to support himself must either work, beg or steal, aud those of criminal intent, where such is perfectly transparent, should be dealt with accordingly. It is always better, more satisfactory and cheaper to prevent wrong than to undertake to punish it A Flesware Trip. J. RasmusRen has returned front a trip to Denver and other points .of In terest He visited Georgetown, Idaho Springs, and stopped at Plum Creek on his return. He reports Mrs. Marshall Smith's health improving and Mr. Smith working up a fine business in Den ver. The sentiment is that Pueblo, will be a competing point with Denver. Mr. R. says that it was snowing when he arrived there, and also when he left, but in the meantime a dust storm that would beat our Nebraska dust storms. While in Denver he visited his brother-in-law, a clerk in the U. P. freight department, John Leimbert On his way to Georgetown he saw a fine piece of engineering. In a narrow valley, only about 300 feet wide, the ascent is too great to make a direct line, for the railroad, and consequently a curve brings the road down the valley and across the for mer track on a bridge about 50 feet above it, aud then ascends the grade, the distance between the two curves being about H mile. At Plum Creek he stopped over three days with bis former section foreman, Pat Dellahanty. There are abont 21,000 sheep at this point, owned by two firms, Nichol & Hanson having 9,000, and Mr. Taylor about 12,000. Mr. Abel leaves Den ver for Wagon Mound to get 5,000 head to take to Plum Creek. About 4 miles out of Denver on the Denver Short Line the C. B. & Q. men can be seen at work on that road, a distance of sixty miles away. The first passenger train is expected in Denver July 4, 1882. Attempted MalcMe. Andrew Carsterson, a farmer living on section 23, Creston, attempted sui cide on Friday morning last For a week' past he has been afflicted with a strange nervousness which had assumed different phases very dis tressing to his family. He started for his plowing at an early hour; after being absent a Bhort time he returned to the house looking pale and ill. His wife inquired if he felt Bick. He replied, "yes, my breast hurts ;" with the assistance of a neighbor he was placed in bed. He told bis wife to see what hurt him, and upon opening his shirt, she discovered a deep gash in the region of the heart, made with a carving knife ; this, he said, he had carried into the field with him for thiB purpose, and had buried by the side of his R. R. iron, and it was founf. there. Dr. Scudder was called ; he probed the wound six Inches without finding the bottom, but decided it had not reached a vital point; he sewed the wound, and thinks he may recover. He has a wife and five children. A. A ! Lawyer JIalces a, CeaJ Mecara. Enterprise, energy, vim and de termination evidenced in any line of legitimate business, deserve recog nition and commendation, especially when exercised under extraordinary circumstances, calculated t unnerve ordinary natures. For the paBt two years we have had among us, quietly doing his work in his profession, a man who has shown these qualities in a degree to elicit admiration. We refer .to W. S. Geer, recognized how wherever known as an able law yer. In this short time he has built up an enviable practice, and made a record in the supreme court that any attorney might be proud of. In Jan. '80 he was retained .in the esse of Smith & Crittenden v. Chas. Scbmitz and others of Butler county, on the part of the def 'ts. This case had been tried in the district court, and had resulted in a decree which set aside' the deed of Chas. S. to 80 a. of land, worth $1200, and to get this decree reversed, and S's deed declared a valid conveyance by the Sapreme Court, was the task assigned him b) bis clients. Mr. Geer, with E. R. Dean of Butler argued the case in the supreme court in July '80, resulting in a reversal of the judgment of the district court the opinion declaring that there was not "a scintilla of ev idence in the record" showing that Schmitz's deed was founded in fraud, as charged. - i Since that time Mr. Geer has pre sented and argued in the supreme court ten cases, six of which have been decided, and five out of the six determined in favor of his clients. Among "these may be mentioned Dietrich v. L. & N. W. R. R. Co., tried in our own county, and appealed by the R. R. Co., from the award of $600 to D. by commissioners. ' The point involved was whether or not the Company had a right to show that Dietricbs paid only one dollar and a half in 77 for this land, for the purpose of reducing the amount awarded by the commissioners. The District Court admitted the evidence, aud Mr. Geer took his exception, and the jury reduced the award to $150. The supreme court reversed the rul ing of the district court on this point, and granted D. a new trial. ' Among the. four cases not decided is that of Gottschalk v. C. B. & Q. R. R. Co., involving the right of cities of the second class to license railroads to go upon public streets and alleys without compensation to abutting lot owners for damages resulting thereto, an interesting subject to attorneys. Whatever may be the decision of the Supreme Court, we are informed that the case was very ably presented on both Bides, Hon. T. M. Marquet of Lincoln, and Hon. A. M. Post of Columbus, for the R. R. Co., and Mr. Geer for Mrs. Gottschalk. The sub jects involved are important ones to the public at large, and, having read the briefs on both sides, we shall watch with interest for the decision. We do not particularize the other cases because, though interesting, they are more or less of a private nature. 6 Here, as In other pursuits, exper ience helps to success. Mr. Geer came among us with large experience in the practice of successfully pre senting questions pt law to courts of last resort, and the practice that has come to him in the District Courts of Platte, Butler, Colfax, Madison, Pierce, Antelope and Nance counties is evidence, if any were needed, of his ubilityT Every lawyer who comes into our community with ability sufficient to cope with advanced attorneys of the leading citits of the state, adds some thing to Platte county. The Colum bus bar to-day ranks favorably with, any outside of Omaha, and ha6 the reputation among judges of hewing, very close to the line, trying a case for the utmost there is in it, and this fact has lost no instance in Mr. GeerV case. v. City Fiaaaces. Every once in a while we hear talk of bonding tbo city to take up out standing indebtedness, also of trades men's bills against the city being aug mented sixteen to twenty per cent to make them equivalent to the cash in hand. It would seem that this state of things ought not to be, judg ing by the following brief statement : CREDITS. Delinquent tax up to and includ ing '79 $2,984 63 Delinquent tax of '80 1,306 20 " " '81 4,85685 Uncollected dog tax 418 44 Total $6,567 44 indebtedness. Outstanding warrants up to '80 .$2,612 82 Interest on same, say for 3 yrs. atlO per cent 783 84 Warrants, Ac, of '80, '81 2,446 51 Interest on same, say 8 mos. at "per cent 128 55 Total $6.97162 Total assets over liabilities.. $f, 595 40 Now, allow that not more than 20 per cent, of the taxes delinquent for 1879 and preceding years is collecta ble, this would leave $3,595.40 less $2,387.62, still a balance of $1,207.78 all liabilities. Our city fathers, it would seem, have done a great deal better than they have had credit for, and a caudid recognition of their services is due from all fair-minded citizens. Pro bono publico, for the public good, should be the resolute principle of every public servant. Braiaard'a lllaalcul WarM.

Mr. Pierce, I find that it containod so much chaff, that I hardly know where to apply my fan, but I will fan a few points and then pass it over to the jury, the readers of the Journal He says,"! must firmly maintain tin. position taken in my former article," and that position was that he would commence at the very summit of the hill of science by studying Latin and Greek first, when your common good sunse teaches the western people that they want their children to com mence at the base of the hill, where the ascent is very gradual at first by learning the three "R's" first, as he terms them, for these are the aids the boy and girl will need every step they take up the more rugged parts of the hill. He says, "if it is unpractical and impractical to compel a boy who was cut out for a grocer's clerk to study Latin and Greek, it Is equally so to force one who was designed for a painter, poet, novelist, or historian, to agonize over an arithemtic or spell ing book." How, in the name of common sense and all that is reason able, can the poet, novelist or historian write their works without knowing how to spell words, or tho latter record passing events without at least some little knowledge of arithmetic? You might as well try to make west ern people believe that the moon is made of green cheese, as to try to poke down their mental throats such an erroneous idea. Again he says, "the thing of chief importance is dis cipline." Here come in his Latin and Greek, as stated in his former ar ticle, but I would take a different work, one far less "unpractical and impractical," one that has done more to discipline the mind and give useful information than any other book writ ten in the English language, one which has been justly and truly styled by an eminent mathematician of the Empire state, the very corner-stone of all true mathematical knowledge, and that hook is no more nor less than Mental Arithmetic. Further on he says, "my own ex perience as teacher and student leads me to divide the young into three classes, those whe prefer the study of mathematics or natural sciences,those who prefer the study of languages or literature, and those who prefer not to study at all. The last is by far the most numerous class. I hope the boy of whom Mr. Stevens speaks is not found in its ranks." I can assure you, my dear sir, that the boy allud ed to is a sensible lad, who, with but half a chance, will make an honorable mark in the world. If western pepple do not on every occasion speak out their mind, it must not be assumed that they don't know anything. Appearances are often de ceptive, just as some apples are ripe though green. G.

T " RIVET At Postville, Neb., April 10, 1882, Maggie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Rivet, aged 18 rears, (months. She was a bright, intelligent young lady, beloved by all who knew her. To think that one so young and promising should be cut down in the bloom of life is a crushing blow, to the sorrowing family. Her remains were followed to their last resting place by an unusually large con course of sympathizing friends. Communicated . In Memory of Mrs. Amanda Xetchum, Mother of Mrs. B. N. Rice, Died March 22. 1882, 81 Tears Old. Dearest Grandma, how we miss thee Since thou art gone from earth away, To a far more happy region. In the realms of endless day. Here we bee thy face no longer, But the hopes we entertain Serve to make our spirits stronger Better able to endure the paiu Many years thou sojourned with us, Aud with thy ever helping hand Sought to ease our every burden, While yet in this shadowy laud. Tired, aged and also feeble. At last thy pilgrimage is o'er. Thou has gained the courts of glnrr, Passing through death's open dour. The remembrance of a mother, Future years cannot erase: Patient may we bear this trial, Trusting our Redeemer's grace. Yes, we're lonely without thee, Grandma, In vain we check the rising sigh; Still, we hope again to greet thee, Where joys eternal never die. Mrs. M. E. 'Signer. LOCAL NOTICES.
