Honest voters should beware of
accc pting as true statements calcula
ted to make them feel personally in
jured by candidates. This, and simi
lar work constitutes all that the Val
entine faction liavo to work on.
Mr. Saunders did not form a part
of the exhibition last Thursday at the
Valentine meetings at this place. It
seenm that the "boss" didn't accept
Mr. Saunders's generous offer to ap
pear in person and tell his little story.
Honest voters should cast their
ballots to defeat a candidate that will
continuance in the conduct of a cam
paign contemptible personalites and
"quit work," as it is termed which
means no more nor less than down
right rascality.

George Jeukinson's dray team ran

broke down Will Schroeder's saloon
sign on Olive street, and from thence
they ran south to 11th street, and
turning east were brought up by the
corner of Rusche's harness shop, the
end of the tongue being forced clear
through the side of the building. The
team was not injured.
A little girl of James Cresap,
living a few miles east of the city,

large dog belonging to Mr. C, in
what was intended by the animal as a
friendly caress jumped with its fore
feet upon the child, throwing her
down and breaking a thigh. The
child was about three years old.
Commissioner Hudson informs
us that the repairs on the Platte bridge
at Duncan have been completed and
that the bridge across the river at
this point will be in good repair and
perfectly safe by the end of the week.
Some necessary delay in the matter of
repairing the bridge at this point has
occurred oa account of not being
able to readily secure suitable timbers
for the work.
We have a lot of remnants of wall
paper that will be sold very cheap.

At Lincoln, last Thursday, the
26th tilt., Mr. John Farmer and Miss
Bella Redmond, niece of Mrs. Meagher
of this city, were joined in the bonds
of matrimony. Mrs. Meagher at
tended the wedding.
We are informed by a man who
claims that his information is authen
tic to the effect that fifteen Valen
tine tools are to be sent into the coun
ty to personally canvass every voter
before election day, and that their
motto will be "anything to secure
vote.;' Their instructions have been
given them by their masters. Let the
voters of Platte county give those
hirelings the reception that they de
serve. Mr. Valentine while here the other
day was not so much taken up with
the subject of denying his record and
dodging the main issues in which the
people are interested that he could not
take time for a little side job by mak
ing au arrangement with Mr. Defen
bauch.a German of the county, to aid
him with his pension matter if Mr. B.
would get him some German votes.
Mr. B. went home to commence to
fill his part of the contract.
Invitations were circulated in this
city amoug the devotees of Terp
sichore to attend a dance at Genoa
last Thursday in Willard's new hall.
The 6ize of the hall being mentioned
would give the impression that plenty
of room has not heretofore been one
of the luxuries of a ball in that burg.
However, a spirit of pride in the en
terprise of the town may have prompt
ed the committee to mention in the
invitation that the hall was 45x80 feet.
A letter to Rev. R. B. Wilson, of
this city, from a Methodist brother
up in Holt county, wants to know
about M. K. Turner's personal char
acter, stating that reports are in circu
lation in his locality that Turner is a
very pfofane man, has no respect for
females, is a blackguard and a fre
quenter of saloons. That mu6t be
the work of Turner's friends, because
Val's political tools don't believe in
attacking a man's personal character
you know.
The party of young men of the
city who were up to the bunting
grounds of the northwest about ten
days, returned Saturday last. As a
buuting party we believe the boys
didn't achieve much fame, but a ma
jority of them took the iuitiatory step
in becoming solid citizens by taking
preemption claims of 160 acres of
real estate on Cash Creek, Holt coun
ty. Chas. and Al. Rickly and Chris.
From thus identified themselves with
the interests of .that locality.
Contrast the difference of the op
posing sides in the congressional
struggle in this locality and what is
indicated? Does it not say that Tur
ner's following aro willing to leave
his election to the ballots of honest
voters, whose conclusions have been
formed by appealing to their reason
and love of principle. On the other
hand have Val's tools left a stone un
turned to prejudice the issue, not hes
itating to misrepresent, distort inno
cent facts, and work upou the preju
dices of men to secure their ballots ?
The bottom of the thin excuse
for supporting a candidate for con
gress totally unfit for the trust, and
so acknowledged by all fair-minded
men, on the ground that he was the
regular candidate, has been knocked
out completely to the satisfaction of
any person willing to be convinced.
Valentine's leading political support
is from that class of politicians that
must bo with the dominant party for
either selfish or pecuniary ends, and
they stand now clearly in such light ;
and all good republicans should so
cast their ballots as to rebuke their
actions.
John Walker informs ub that he
expects a visit from his nephew, Hon.
John McHugh, proprietor of the
Howard County Bank, Cresco, Iowa.
Mr. McHugh is said to be a very flu
ent speaker and a gentleman of a large
degree of literary culture. We un
derstand that a number of our prom
inent citizens intend extending to him
an invitation to deliver an address iu
Columbus during his visit. Should
tho effort succeed, there is no doubt
our citizens would be favored with a
most excellent literary repast, and the
speaker complimented with a full
house.
Mr. Turner never rode on a pass
from any railroad company for which
he did not give value received in a le
gitimate way. Can the gentleman
who charged in a speech at Hum
phrey the other evening that Turner
held and rode on a free pass, say as
much? Mr. Turner objects to the
free pass system, because it is an un
just discrimination against individ
uals. It is perfectly evident to the
dullest intellect that if the travelling
public were divided into two equal
parts, one of which paid full fare, (say
four cents a mile,) and the other
nothing, that those who paid were re
ally being taxed for the fellows who
paid nothing, and that if all paid
alike the rate could be lowered to two
cents a mile. Everybody should be
treated alike. If the railroad compa
ny, for instance, gives a free pass to a
member of the legislature, so soon as
it is time for him to attend the session
and not before, it is a valuable thing,
if used by such legislator, and it seems
strange why that proposition cannot
be seen. The question will naturally
arise with a conscientious man, why
didn't this company issue me a free
pass before I became a member of the
legislature, a county commissioner,
a district judge, a judge of the su
preme court, a county treasurer or
clerk or sheriff? Is it because I am
an official now and was not before ?
Am I expected to do something now
for them that I couldn't do before in
an individual capacity? Will my
judgment for or against them on mat
ters that may come up be unbiased ?
Will those I represent believe that
it will, with a free paBB in my pocket?
There is only one proper way to an
swer these questions, and those who
charge M. K. Turner with riding on a
free pass are hereby branded as falsifier,

A Ilrakemnn Fallw Rctvreea
tMoCantand liax the Life
Crushed Oat of Him.
Saturday night last, about half past
10 o'clock, Pat Morgan, a brnkemnn
in the Norfolk branch of the D. P.,
accidentally met his death at Hum
phrey in this county, by lulling be
tween two car6 while the train was in
motion. The full particulars of the
sad affair we did uot get, but learn
that the unfortunate man wa9 a son
in-law to Jno. Walker, Esq., of this
county, and that the remains have
been sent to his parents in Iowa.
It is 6afe to say that the voters of
this county have had enough of elec
tions carried by resorting to practices
that arc beneath the sanction of a can
didate asking tor the trust of the peo
ple, and that the time has passed when
any man or any man's tools could
carry an election with beer and mon
ey. Honest voters begin to see that
honor and honesty actually disqualify
a candidate for a political race under
this practice, will resent it; and men
who have been influenced by auy kind
of pecuniary consideration have learn
ed how little reliance to place on
promises made to secure voles.
Attention Vetera.
The regular republican and anti
mouoyoly tickets printed at this of
fice for Platte couuty have only a
blank iorm on them iu regard to the
constitutional amendment, and unless
the word tor, or the word against, is
written before "Proposed Amend
ment to the constitution relating to
the rights of Suffrage," the ballot will
fail to count either way. If in favor,
write the word For, if opposed write
the word Against, If neither is writ
ten and the ticket voted just as it is
printed it will be a blank vote count
ing nothing on either side.
T. H. Saunders is either "cranky"
on the subject of a mortgage given to
Valentine, or he has beeu duped by
gross misrepresentations to state it
mildly of Val. aud his strikers. M.
K. Turner never heard of the matter
until charged by Saunders with say
ing that Val. held a mortgage on his
farm for services in procuring his
(Saunders) pension. The following
letter 6hows pretty conclusively that
the whole affair was a set-up job to
get Mr. Sauuders'a affidavit, and make
Mr. Turner appear to have descended
to the level of Val. and his tools in
campaign work:
Columbus, Neb., Oct. 16th, 1882.
Hon. E. K. Valentine, Dear Sir:
I at once sent to Saunders' home in
Polk county aud also for an affidavit
of county clerk to show no such mort
gage had ever been given or filed for
record. Sauuders happened iu to-day
and as per your request, I at once tel
egraphed you bis affidavit. Also
telegraphed copy to J. Y. Arthur,
Oakdale. Herein you will find the
original affidavit. Saunders also says
if you want him at any point to tell
this in person, telegraph for him. He
(Sauuders) told Turner this on. the
streets to-day. Turner by force put
the dollar into Sauuders' pocket to
day, whereupon S. told Turner he
would give him credit for the same on
an old account he had owed him for
two years. "Yours truly,
John W. Eaklt.
The dollar paid Mr. Turner was re
tained on account of Saunders im
portuning to that effect, and saying
that it was to reimburse him (Tur
ner) for postage, &c, and that if he
(Saunders) was entitled to any bal
ance to apply it on a notice in the
Journal. A notice of Mr. Saunders
success in securing back pension
from 1SG5 appeared iu the Journal
Feb. 15th, 1S82, and subsequently the
space of the paper was taken up on
his behalf. When a knowledge of
the use this simple fact was being put
to by Mr. Saunders became known to
Mr. Turner he forced a dollar into
Saunders' pocket with the remark
that it had been a very dirty dollar on
his part and he didn't want it.
Three or four disciples of John
Early are being sent over the county
to make speeches and work especially
for Valentine, tho railroad candidate
for congress. Theeo fellows preach
Valentine, and him only. They were
never known to contribute by speech
or otherwise anything for the support
of the Republican ticket, which shows
that they are working for the boss and
not for principle. We are told that
especially in their confidential state
ments they not only traduce and
malign Turner but his supporters as
well. As for instance, without any
knowledge, proof or excuse they say
that $10,000 was paid to some of Tur
ner's supporters to help carry the A.
& N. bonds. How ridiculous and
silly this appears to a man of sense.
Just as though the managers of that
company were foolish enough to pay
a large sum to anybody when, as a
matter of fact known to all, we all
wanted the road worse than they
wanted to build it, and only a few
years before voted $200,000 for the
same road. This was well known to
the A. & N. Co., and they even failed
to pay all the expenses of the cam
paign which was claimed by 6ome
they ought to pay. The people of the
town and in the country wanted this
road as bad as these fellows say they
want Valentine elected to congress,
but nobody worked so hard or stoop
ed so low for the bonds as they are
doing for Valentine. Among the
leading and hardest workers for the
bonds were Judge Higgins, Mr. Bar
num, Mr. Hensley, Mr. Stauffer, Mr.
Haney, Mr. Kayanaugh (now deceas
ed), and Mr. Browner. In fact you
can scarcely find a good, leading citi
zen in the couuty who was not in favor
of the bonds, and the vote shows that
not many were opposed to them.
While we did not realize all we ex
pected in all respects, yet the result
is we have roads through the county,
can go and come in any direction by
rail and get good coal for $6 per ton.
Not so bad after all. Like kill-sheep
dogs that do not kill sheep near home
these workers go from home to slan
der their neighbors and circulate
falsehoods. But if tbey can mislead
any one with such silly and inconsis
tent stuff it will only be some one who
has not sense enongb to entitle him to
a vote.
By request we publish the follow
ing item from tho Terre Haute, (Ind.)
Eveniug Gazette:
Mrs. Bertha Schweitzer has become
alarmed about her son Louis. The
young man studied law here iu Mr. N.
U. BtitTs office and left here about a
year aud a hail ago intending to pros
pect in various towns iu the west be
fore settling down to the practice of
nis profession. Up until last June he
wrote home regularly every two
weeks. The last letter was sent from
Columbus, Nebraska, in which place
be stayed a few hours and said he
would send his address at his next
stopping place. Since that time she
has heard nothing whatever from him
and is alarmed lest something should
have happened to him.

Ed. Journal: I see in the Colum

thing it is when little shavers consider
themselves smart. "Skimmer," I sup
pose is just fresh from the shop. By
his name I should judge he is an ex
milk peddler and now being out of a
job has turned his talent in another
direction, All righ', keep it up. It will
do you good, probably, aud me no
harm. But how far above the aver
age human being "J. J. M." must con
sider himself and probably some of
those who are not acquainted with
.him thinks that he is somebody. But
alas ! deception thou art great. My
dear madam, please at your earliest
convenience relieve your mind of any
thing that I may have said or done
that is not straightforward, and you
will undoubtedly greatly oblige the
people of Platte county. If not, you
certaiuly will Niels Olson.
P. S. Please send that inspiration

The Ladies' Missionary Society held
their annual supper in the church on
the evening of the 25th ult. It was
largely attended and very successful
in every way. After the refreshments
were served, several ladies and gen
tlemen entertained the company with
instructive missionary intelligence.
To the regret of all it was announced
that this would be the last opportunity
to hear a missionary speech from Dr.
Scudder, who has lived here over two
years. He has so thoroughly identi
fied himself with all the interests of
the place that he will be sadly missed.
He leaves for India in a few weeks ;
his wife and children remain here.
While all the people feel a personal
grief at his departure, all acknowledge
that they have been benefitted by his
short residence here and will be bet
ter christians and citizens for his con
sistent life among us. A.
