The Telegraph.
If the operators strike Bball succeed
in fixing public attention long enough
to look fairly into the matter, the
Journal believes that the country
will demand a postal telegraph of
congress at its next session.
When the subject was under dis
cussion last winter, it was well agreed
that the project was practicable, de
sirable, nay necessary to the business
interests of the country, and the views
expressed by Senator Edmunds, we
think, hit the pnblic desire exactly.
He advocated a beginning with lines
between the most important commer
cial points of the country, to extend
to all points as rapidly as the service
would bear, operating the lines on the
6am e general principles as the postal
department is now, that is, at a nom
inal cost, sufficient however to pay
current expenses and ensure good
service. Ho also insisted that the
country should not think of purchas
ing existing lines, but put up their
own, leaving tho present and any
future companies to compete for the
business against the government, if
they could do so in the interest of the
public. Postal facilities' were enlarg
ed so that small packages of mer
chandise could be profitably sent
through the mails, but this did not
abolish the great express companies
that still continue to do business. So,
neither will the fact that the govern
ment enters the business of telegraph
ing, necessarily do away with the
private business, but it will secure
lower prices, better service, less lia
bility to interruption by Btrikes, and
be a big entering wedge to railroad
control.
The Sutton Regis ter "has been in
formed that a part of the Nebraska
delegation in Congress intend to press
the passage of a bill at the next ses
sion, allowing stock men to buy up
large tracts of land in the western
part of the state, of the government,
at a nominal price, and thus turn, the
whole section over to a few men. If
this report is well founded, our ad
vice would be don't do it. The
agitation of this question had the ran
of the press on two or three occasions
heretofore, and the judgment of this
people is undoubtedly against such, a
measure. Even wore it established
beyond doubt that the West End is
totally unfit for agriculture, the policy
of giving the land into the hands of a
few men would be most unwise and
unjust. And the experience of this
year on the upper Republican will go
a long way towards demonstrating
that no such conclusion is, as yet,
warrantable. But even were it abso
lutely true, it is much better that the
country should be occupied by thous
ands of 6tockmen with small herds,
than by a very few with unnaturally
large ones. Such a project, while
meeting the approbation of the few it
would benefit, would be condemned
most emphatically by the body of the
people, as any attempt to pass such a
bill would very soon demonstrate."
Whenever there is a determined
man whose personal or property
rights are interfered with by the prox
imity of a house of ill-fame, there is
no great difficulty in having the nui
sance abated, as has recently been
demonstrated here. The law on the
subject is as follows :
Chapter 25, section 210, of the Com
piled Statutes of Nebraska, says:
"Every bouse or building situated in
this state used and occupied as a
house of ill-fame, or for the purposes
of prostitution shall be held and
deemed a public nuisance; and any
person owning, or having control of
such house or building and knowing
ly leasing or sub-letting the same in
whole or in part for the purpose of
keeping therein a bouse of ill-fame,
or knowingly permit the same to
be used and occupied for sueh
purpose, or using and occupying
the same for such purpose, shall
for every such offence be fined in any
sum not exceeding one hundred dol
lars, or imprisoned in the county jail
not less than thirty days or more than
six months, or both at the discretion
of the court."
Section 211 says: "The use or oc
cupation by the lessee or tenant of
any house or building, or any part
thereof for the purposes prohibited in
the preceding section shall be held by
the courts of this state good cause on
the part of the owner to re-enter at
any time and take possession of such
house or building."
Being ordered to "go" for specific
reasons, satisfactory to the democratic
commanders, the republican party
naturally remembers that it has heard
the order a number of times before,
but the. reasons assigned have, when
collated, a pleasing aspect of ingenui
ty and variety. The New York Trib
une recalls the fact that republicans
were ordered to "go" twenty years
ago because "they were waging an
unconstitutional war; a little later
because they were not prosecuting it
with vigor ; later because the war was
a failure; then because they had
issued an irredeemable currency;
thon because they would not pay the
national debt with it; then because
they were postponing specie resump
tion by their financial policy; then
because they were endangering busi
ness interests by hastening resump
tion ; and so on and so on until now
they must go simply because they are
"rascals." Thus far, when ordered to
go, they have, like the man in the
parable of the vineyard, said "I go
not," and unlike him, they afterwards
repented not and went not Lincoln

Loos out for your horses! On
Wednesday evening last three horses
were stolen from this vicinity. Mr.
W. E. McNeal at Nursery Hill, lost
two and Mr. C. W. Baldwin, a farmer
living seven miles northwest of this
town, lost one which was taken from
the picket rope near his residence,
another horse left in its place. The
thieves are supposed to be well posted
concerning the horses in the neigh
borhood. There is considerable ex
citement in town concerning it, and
if the rascals are caught it will be a
sorry job for them. Syracuse Journal.
The newspapers of Omaha are ask
ing Mayor Chase some pretty pointed
questions. Among other tbings,quite
too numerous for an 0U6ide barbarian
to mention, they seem exceedingly
desirons to know whether the Mayor,
when be was a candidate for election,
entered into an agreement with the
I gamblers to be easy with them, if
they Bhould vote and work- for his
election; whether, after election, he
violated his agreement long enough
to compel them to pay him for official
protection ; and whether, as the Her
ald expresses it, after an enforced
idleness of three weeks or there
abouts, these gamblors raised a purse
of $500 and presented it to the alleged
mayor, with the promise of an addi
tional $50 a month as long as he kept
his official clawB off. It is safe to say
that the mayor will have too much
"alleged" dignity to condescend to
answer these impertinent questions of
his friend Dr. Miller. Judging from
the appearance of the situation at this
distance we should say that the news
papers have & prima facie case against
the mayor.
Buffalo county only has five del
egates to the republican state conven
tion, this year. Last year she had
either 10 or 11. If we recollect right
ly, the "kickers" were told by the
monopoly wing that they were a
good riddance, that their votes were
not needed, and the party was better
off without them. Judge Savidge
should go as a delegate to the coming
republican state convention and tell
the party that his action last fall re
duced the party membership in Buffa
lo -county more thau one-half, and
inform them that he was mistaken
when he stated in the last republican
state convention that tho opposition
claimants for seats only represented a
few "sore headB" and "disappointed
candidates." Next year Buffalo coun
ty will have about 3 delgates to the
republican state convention. Kear

There is as yet no satisfactory re
sponse to the inquiry, "Why was Boss
Stout awarded the capital contract at
figures $41,000 above those of R. D.
Silver?" The excuses are lame. Tho
board that awarded the contract has
the privilege of the floor.
The above, from the Beatrice Ex
press, expresses pretty accurately the
state of public feeling, except that it
should contain a peremptory order to
step to the front and explain the situ
ation. This should be done imme
diately, too, because the county con
ventions are already beginning to be
held, and the gentlemen engaged in
this business will be sure to hear
from the "rural precincts," some
pretty plain expressions of opinion, if
this apparent jobbery is not clearly
explained and justified.
It is reported that Mr. Gannett and
Mr. Fifield intend to resign their po
sitions as regents of the university,
and that Mr. Holmes does not desire
a re election. Tho loss of Gannett
and Holmes would leave Mr. Gere
the only member of the board. The
termB of Merritt, Persinger and
Hoi moo will e-rpire tbia year.and if h
resignations spoken of are made there
will be five members of the board to
elect next fall. So far as Mr. Persin
ger is concerned, we are authorized
to state he is not a candidate for re
election. He has served faithfully for
six years, and having done what ho
believes his whole duty, desires to
retire. Central City Nonpareil.
It is said that Mr. Silver, who it
will be remembered was the unsuc
cessful bidder (though $41,000 lees)
on the State Capitol job, will contest
the matter in the courts. It may be
worth his while, and it certainly will
be some satisfaction to the tax payers
of the state to know whether there is
any law or justice, for letting contracts
to the highest bidder, all other things
being equal. One of the important
questions for the supreme court or
somebody else to solve is whether the
taxpayers of Nebraska have any rights
at all that "Boss" Stout and his gang
must respect.
Mb. Dobson, one of the committee
men who went to the northwestern
part of the Btate to view lands for the
soldiers' colony, brought home with
him a stalk of corn cut in the Nio
brara valley that will compare very
favorably with the best corn in this
section of the country. The same
gentleman says he saw a wheat field
that would certainly turn off forty
bushels to the acre. He further Bays
that whether the colony forniB or not,
he is ready to pack up and move north
before the summer is over. Stale

The Tecumseh Chieftain remarks
that the people of Nebraska like
Conkling less and Blaine more as
time progresses, and calls the Lincoln
Journal's recent utterance on the sub
ject a billions attack. The contest of
'80 in this state cannot be repeated in
all its phases, and it is hardly worth
while to talk about it. Our brethren
are apparently trying to cross the
bridge before they get to it, which is
never good policy the important
thing to know is that the stream has a
good strong bridge.
The Lincoln Journal man says the
chief curse of this state is mis-government
in counties. Are compari
sons so odious that the Journal never
refers to any mis-government by state
officials? Couldn't the Journal give
us a line or two, occasionally, on
economy in state affairs? Jt would
be, we know, refreshing to the read
ers of that paper to see a little more
plainness of speech on matters which
appear to others so crooked.

Health Notes.
Whatever wo set out to do it is
always best to determine clearly what
it is we wish to accomplish. Know
what you want and then want what
you know. When health is our ob
ject it is well for us to have in our
minds an ideal of a healthy man or
woman. Let us attempt to draw the
outlines of this ideal. Here is in a
few strokes our Apollo Belvidere.
A solid, erect figure; symmetrical
proportions ; intelligent countenance ;
an open, honest look; rounded (not
angular) features ; the expression in
dicating firmness without severity,
and friendliness without frivolity ;
ruddy lips; white teeth; deep chest;
full waist ; the gait as well as the look
must be manly normal and honest;
the step firm, with an absence of all
tripping or twisting. The grip of the
hand must be firm and warm; any
muscular movement must show an
absence of hesitation, trembling or
weakness ; breathing and pulse must
be slow, steady and firm. All action
physiological, muscular, mental and
emotional well balanced and regu
lated. And last but not least, the
will must Bit supreme and ever bold
undisputed sway.
Better read that ideal once more
and ponder the meaning of each
"stroke."
Any esseutial departure from this
apollo indicates something wrong.
If the good Journal man will give us
space, we will try to describe some of
the abnormal variations from this
normal picture, together with some of
the causes which produce abnormi
ties. This picture is, as it were, the
shadow of what we all might be, but
alas are not. The variation from the
normal are indeed infinite. What a
fearful degeneration of the human
species do we witness around us every
day. Hardly' a family that is all
sound. The wise will look out, first
and above everything else, for sound,
solid, robust health, this being funda
mental to every other enjoyment or
acquirement.

Wytt Storts started one week ago
last Friday with team and buggy for
the Boston settlement, on the Loup,
distant about fifty miles, taking as a
companion a gentleman who lately
arrived from the "Hub," and who
wished to reach the settlement above
mentioned. The Boston settlement is
southeast of Hawkins' ranch, but
Storts and companion were directed
southwest, and Btruck out through
the sand-hills. When somu distance
from the ranch their buggy broke
down, and they were obliged to aban
don it and take to the horses. There
was no human habitation in the hills,
and they wandered on two days and
nights before they reached a ranch
on the Calamus, being all this time
without food. They were pretty well
fatigued and only too gladly availed
themselves of the hospitality of the
ranch. Assistance and guides were
procured, and they were two days
finding the buggy. Wytt came back
to O'Neill Saturday. The little dog
Keno, belonging to Fritz & Co., was
with them, but gave out and laid
down, and as nothing has been beard
of him sinoo, it is probable that he
succumbed to the inevitable. Storts
and companion may congratulate
themselves that they succeeded in
finding their way out of tho hills. It
was certainly an adventure which but
few of us would run a great distance
to meet.
A Steam Wheel.
Plattsmouth Herald.
This morning the Herald went up
and interviewed Frank Morrison's
Bteam wheel, which is no small won
der, and worth a description far more
extended than the Herald c&n give.
The invention does away with a sta
tionary engine, applying the steam
directly to the balance wheel, and if
any think thero is no power in the
motive power thus made, they should
see the invention in motion. Frank
wants to secure a place down town
to put it on exhibition, and it is well
worth seeing. Everybody, who so
far has witnessed it work, believes
there is big money in the invention.
The amount of the confederate

No people in the world have wel

railroad managers have chilled this
cordiality, and changed it to distrust,
they can blame nothing but their
shortsightedness. Buffalo Express.

Immediately cured and full vigor restored. This distressing affllction-which ren
ders life a burden and marriage impossible, is the penalty paid by tl- victim for
improper indulgence. Young people are apt to oominit excesses froi not being
