It should have been said last
week that no inconsiderable part of
the order at the Fair Ground was
due to the general good humor of
John Huber, and also to his deter
mination when "forbearance ceased
to be a virtue."
Mr. C. S. Webster brought us
Friday another sample of his early
variety of potatoes. They have
grown wonderfully in two weeks,
measuring in circumference 8)4 and

Devore, the Taylor Bros, and Mr.
Flemming.
John Stauffer, Esq., of this city,
laid on our table Saturday a cluster
of beautiful Catalpa flowers taken
from one of his trees in this city.
This furnishes the evidence that the
Catalpa will live and flourish in Ne
braska soil and climate. One of his
trees grew twelve feet last year.
The Fourth at Otto Miller's a few
miles north of the city, was celebrated
in a very sensible and pleasant man
ner, by music and dancing and feast
ing, until midnight. When the clock
struck .twelve all were surprised, the
time had passed so pleasantly, "ruurc
were about twenty couples present,
and all voted it "a splendid time."
A. W. Clark tells us of a brother
farmer who is trying an experiment
this season for wheat, sowing nine
barrels of salt to twenty acres, leav
ing portions of the same ground
without the addition of salt. He
claims that there is "not a bug," and
that the salted land will yield 6 or
7 bu. more to the acre than the other,
similarly treated.
Patriotic people to the number of
three hundred assembled at the

house was decorated with flags, and
everybody was gay, even the older
folks had an amusiuf race about sun
down.
Our exchange are all making
suggestions now m to the proper
thing to do when ton see a tornado
coming. Dave Brumbaugh, who
wades the rivei hen be comes to
town instead of going round by the
bridge, says he brieves that if a man
can get his feet iquarely planted in
the quicksand, in the Loup, he will
stick, tornado cr no tornado. Sher
man County 2V.
Dave has stock a chord that will
find an affirmative response all along
the line.
The David City Republican say6
reports have been numerously cur
rent there "that Wm. Tillman, for
merly in busincBS with Albert Wilde,
had been shot and killed in Glenwood,
la." The information is hearsay.
Wm. Dougherty has opened a
carriage and wagon shop, in connec
tion with Mr. Naylor on 13th st. near
Tiffany's old barn. He always did
first-class work and asks his old
friends and the public generally to
call and see him. 11 2
The Genoa Leader says of the 4th
there: "Hon. John G. Biggins, of
Columbus, was the orator cf the day,
and favored the crowd with one of
bis happiest speeches. All who heard
the oration unite in pronouncing it a
brilliant and most practical speech;
one that the people will do well to
heed, aud profit.thereby."
Those who think to make a hog
tight fence exclusively of wire had
better take a second thought about it.
The experience of some of bis neigh
bors afar off may teach him. Henry
Rickert has a good fence for cattle
and hogs, a wire within three iuches
of the ground, thre'e, six-inch fence
boards, then auother wire, with posts
every eight feet.
Central Baptist Church.
The original Tennessee Jubilee and
Plantation Singers gave one of their
concerts at the Central Baptist Church,
April, 14, 1882, and gave entire sat
isfaction to a large audience. They
attempt nothing artistic, but to re
produce the simple melodies of the
plantation, and this they do exceed
ingly well.
E. O. Taylor, Pastor,
Chicago.
Beware of all kinds of traeeling
tricksters that you don't know. Don't
sign papers of any kind for them.
Buy of reliable home dealers. There
are too many tricksters, scamps and
swindlers peddling machinery, lightning-rods,
trees, &c, and it is best to
have nothing at all to do with them.
Platte county men, notwithstanding
the warning paragraphs of her news
papers, have lost thousands of dollars
by these gentry.
D. L. Bruen was in the city Fri
day, of course on business (be is one
of the business farmers of Platte
county), and says that he never in all
his life saw corn grow any better than
it is doing just now it is fairly jump
ing along. In speaking on farm
matters, he gave a very decided opin
ion in favor of fall plowing, for corn
as well as small grain, and says he
would fall-plow every acre when he
had the time and the ground was
moist enough.
Mrs . Margaret W. Campbell will
delivor a lecture upon the proposed
amendment to the State Constitution,
in the Opera House to-morrow
(Thursday) evening, beginning at
8 o'clock. She is reported as an able
advocate of impartial suffrage, and is
sent out by the American Woman's
Suffrage Association. The lecture is
free, and everybody is invited to
como out and hear a woman give
reasons why women should be al
lowed to vote.
Ab the result of the work of the
"temperance" advocates in Iowa may
be interesting to Nebraska readers, in
more ways than one, we give the,
ameadment as voted upon and car
ried. Of course this action will
strengthen the confidence of the pro
hibitionists in contiguous states, and
another strong effort may be looked
for: "No person shall manufacture
for sale, or sell, or keep for sale, as a
beverage, any intoxicating liquors
whatever, including ale, wine and
beer. The general assembly shall by
law prescribe regulations for the en
enforcement of the prohibition herein
contained, and shall provide suitable
penalties for the violation of the pro
visions hereof."
The enterprising business men of
Schuyler are not slow to see any
advantages that may accrue to their
town by the establishment of far
reaching ventures. Recently a com
mittee visited this city with a view
to ascertaining facts with reference
to pork-packing, and the Sun makes
these, among other, remarks on the
situation: "The Columbus packing
company was organized last Fall.
The capital stock is $50,000. Work
on the buildings was begun in Oc
tober and packing began about the
middle of December and continued
until March. In that time between
six and seven thousand hogs were
packed. Arrangements are now
being made to increase that number
during the coming season to twenty
five thousand head. The packing
housc-inw i. . cregt nep to the
business interests of Columbus, tub
establishment could pay a price for
hogs most shippers could not meet
and this attracted farmers from a
great distance. Colfax county con
tributed liberally to the ColumbUB
packing house supply last winter and
unless a similar institution is started
here the contributions will be on a
still more liberal scale another season.
But a town meeting or a ward caucus
won't start a packing house. When
ever a few men of capital and energy
will take hold of the enterprise it
will ifaove and not till then. Res
olutions and salt barrel oratory won't
help it. We have enough of capital
and enough energy in Schuyler to
set the institution right on its feet if
the men possessing these requisites
will but come to the front, and at this
writing we have every reason to be
lieve that they will."
Death.
We were much surprised at the
announcement of the death of Martha
Kennedy, wife of Martin S. Kennedy,
of Cadiz, Ohio, on the 3d of July, '82.
But a short time since we enjoyed
her society and hospitality at her own
home, when she was in the very best
of health and spirits. She was sud
denly and unexpectedly stricken
down by spinal disease. She was an
unexceptionable woman and must re
ceive her reward.
A number of members of the Al
liauce (none but actual operative
farmers can be members), will be a
little surprised at the resolutions
adopted at the county alliance. Al
ready different constructions are be
ing placed upon the resolutions, and
to some ardent republicans (aud per
haps democrats) an explanation will
be in order. Do they mean that for
mer party tics are to be abandoned,
and all former political loves buried
in the alliance? Do they mean that
the alliance in this county and gener
ally is to be a separate, distinct polit
ical organization, membership in
which would be exclusive of aud in
consistent with membership in any
other political organization? If so,
we assure the gentlemen who voted
for those resolutions that there are
numbers of their organization, as
firmly fixed in the faith of their gen
eral principle as any, who will not
follow such leading.

Explanatory.
Loyalton, Cal., June 28, '82.
Editor Journal : Pleaso allow me
to correct a few of the mistakes that
occurred in my letter as printed in
the Journal of the 21st.
In the first place there are no "tulip
beds" here, but plenty of tulies, a kind
of worthless flag or rush. But the
most astounding assertion is that the
red clever has a stately blue blossom
and the root is U3ed as food ! What I
referred to was the wild potato grow
ing here, aud a portion of that clause
was left out entirely. Then, again, it
was to the lady of the manor that I
recommended my hungry friends, not
to the lord. While my humble sug
gestion in regard to the old school of
etiquette was directed to the new
school, not to the men.
The fault was doubtless due to my
careless writing.
Yours truly,
Susie M. West.

Ah to the Small-Pox.
The inmates of the hospital were
five grown-up people, six sisters and
five children, besides those taken
sick. The well have been removed
to a small house at the rear of the
hoapital. The names of the sick so
far, are Willie Boyle, Geo. McAnany,
Rudolph Caboska, Francis Persal,
Willie Conway, Lena Stonton, Edie
Boyle and one of the sisters. The
deaths have been Edie Boyle, Wed
nesday, July 5tb, and Willie Conway,
July Uth, 8:30.
To the Journal it looks as though
there had been some strange pro
ceedings going on. We are credibly
informed that the church authorities
at the Monastery, within a few feet
of the hospital pest-house, contrary
to the orders or the Mayor, had in
vited members to come there at 2
o'clock in the morning, and had sent
word to their Polish adherents to
come into church; also that during
one of the public days of the church
not long since, two of the inmates of
the hospital, children, were put into
the procession and mixed with the
crowd. While it is true that these two
children were not afflicted with the
small-pox, it is yet true that, accord
ing to all our American ideas of the
contageous character of this disease,
whoever allowed this thing is severely
reprehensible. It strikes us that the
Father Superior at the Monastery
has been dealt with all too leniently
in this matter, being allowed to go
back and forth, in hospilal and out,
t.ot altogether just as he pleased, but
pretty much as he would, believing
that the small-pox was not a partic
ularly dangerous disease, and that
there was no call for the civil au
thorities beiug so strict aeainst tlm
probability of its spread.
We must say to all concerned that
this people will neither sanction nor
tolerate any such work, and the soon
er it ceases the better for all concern
ed. The Sisters are deserving of all
praise for their falthfnl. fniiisro
and kindly ministrations to the afflicted.
Sapreaie Ceart.
We copy from Northwestern Law
Reporter of Julv 1st, which will be
of more or less interest to our readers.
In the cane of Gerhold v. Wyss,
from Platte couuty, the court held
that "a man formally married to a
woman who, because of her insanity,
which he discovered soon afterwards,
was incapable of entering into the
marriage contract, and continuing
thereafter voluntarily to co habit
with her as his wife, is under a legal
obligation to support her; and, hav
ing furnished such support, he canuot,
upon a decree of separation on the
ground of the invalidity of the mar
riage, make the same a charge against
her separate estate.
In Friedhoff & Co. v. Smith," a
parol lease for two years, although
void by the statute, yet if the tenant
enter into possession may be valid as
a lease for one year."
Care.
No matter how good the season,
unless the crops are harvested and
cared for the labor is wholly or par
tially thrown away. Improper stack
ing of grain and hay, as well as im
proper shelter after threshing have
been prolific causes, of loss, here as
elsewhere.
Everybody recognizes the necessity
of care in stacking grain, but not so
readily as to hay, and now that the
hay crop is becoming valuable for
shipment, to the amount of tens of
thousands of dollars to each county
in the Platto valley, it is well to rec
ognizo the fact that care is money.
The following suggestions from the
Schuyler Sun we know to be timely
in more counties than Colfax:
"As tho season for putting up hay
approaches, there are some sugges
tions that become timely. The pro
portion of hay that is spoiled each
year through ignorance or neglect, is
astonishing. One of the principal
causes of bay spoiling is neglect in
stacking. The custom of sweeping
up the bay for a base prevails to a
considerable extent, and when this is
done the bottom of the stack can be
relied upon to spoil if left standing
any great length of time. Mr. Clark
son, who has had occasion to investi
gate this subject extensively, says that
in order to keep the hay in good,
saleable condition until Spring, the
stack should be built on the bottom,
solidly and carefully, and not less
than sixteen feet high. Too much care
cannot be taken in topping out the
stack so that it will shed water prop
erly. There are many here who ex
pect to realize a good profit from the
hay crop, and upon such these sug
gestions should not be lost, as those
buying to bale and ship cannot use
hay that is in the least damaged. Last
winter when hay was high, the dam
aged portion of tho stack conld be
disposed of to good advantage, but an
ordinary season it would be a total
loss."
The Foarth at Wattuvllle.
Quite a crowd of people assembled
in Mr. Nicholson's grove at Watts
ville, on the fourth. They came from
all directions, far and near. Mr. J.
Ferree brought the glorious old flag
of the stars and stripes poised high
upon his wagon, and quite a number
of vehicles well loaded with people
and big baskets followed him from
the west, while others came from the
east, north, and south.
Rov. A. J. Wright from St. Ed
wards had been requested to address
the meeting, which he did in his
usual earnest and feeling way. He
was followed by Rev. Mr. Osborn
from Massachusetts, a brother to our
fellow-citizen Osborn. He said a
good deal in praise of Nebraska, of
its splendid looking crops, aB well as
of the people composing the crowd,
among whom he did not see nor
smell any whiskey.
Rev. A. Henricb being called npon
responded in a few remarks. It being
a Sunday School pic-nic as well as
Fourth of July celebration, be main
tained that the Sunday School work
had a good deal to do with support
ing and preserving our liberties for
future generations. Somo little
amusement waB produced, by the re
lation of an incident of a bunch of
sheep running after a big white
poodle. He advised the people not
to run after a poodle.
Then followed the discussion of the
substantial piled in great abundance
on a long table, as well as spread on
the grass, where a number of families
dined by themselves.
For the amusement of young and
old a swing had been provided and
some youngsters tried their best to
get hold of the silver dollar stuck
on top of the greased pole, and one
little fellow finally succeeded and got
it, under the cheers of the crowd.
Altogether it was an occasion of
enjoyment and pleasure, and the
Wattsville people deserve credit for
the arrangements made and provided.
