Eggs are cheap enough te eat.
Some political economist wishes to
know why it is that the hens lay the
most eggs when eggs are cheapest,
and says that if they could only" be
induced to lay most when eggs are
the highest price, they would make
much more money for their em
ployers. The bunting fruit and vegetable
cans in the burning debris of Con
don's building the other night caused
constant apprehension in the minds
of those who were on the qui vivc for
robbers that the seemingly distant
explosion might be caused by safe
crackers. We have yet to learn of a
single instance of theft or attempted
theft.
Here is the latest and possibly
the very last in the Hue of novel and
interesting election bets :
"An enthusiastic Blaine girl at Oak
land, California, on the day after
Cleveland's inauguration paid an
election bet of one hundred kisses."
From the fact that there is no tragic
final announcement it must be con
cluded that the kisses were decidedly
passive.
Last week Mike Conor, neighbor
to John and James Haney, lost two

before mentioned, and we believe
some stock belonging to James

The Congregational church was
filled Monday evening at the opening
session of the National reform con
vention. It was held under the aus
pices of the movement to secure a
national recognition of God in the
constitution of the United States.
The devotional exercises were con
ducted by Bev. J. Bochaaaa of
Ulysses. Eev. J. W. Little mastered
a choir which furnished good music.
Bev. M. A. Gault, district secretary
of the -associatioa, made the first
address, stating the object ef the
movement and its relatioa to other
reforms. He was followed by Bev.
E. B. Graham, who spoke oa the

Last Wednesday a number of cit
izens met at John Hammond's office
under a call for a meeting of citizens
opposed to gambling rooms, hoases of
prostitution and saloons. E. A. Ger
rard was selected as chairman, John
Hammond as secretary. A strong
platform was adopted embodying
their views and calling for strict and
positive enforcement of the law. The
following ticket was nominated: For
Mayor, J. IS-. Taylor; for City Clerk,
L. A. Clark ; for city treasurer, Capt.
Hammond ; for Councilman 1st ward,
John Elliott ; 2d ward, J. C.Co wdery ;
3d ward, W. J. Thurston. In a letter
addressed to the chairman of the con
vention, under date of March 26th, L.
A. Clark says, after respectfully de
clining the -nomination, with thanks
for the honor, "while I consider my
self an advocate ef law and order
principles, I am vary loth to believe
sach are net the precepts of the pirty
with which I have always affiliated.''
The school board held a special
meeting Thursday evening last aad
wisely decided upon an action which
cannot fail to meet the glad approval
of all. The grounds of every school
house in the city are to be planted to
trees, seeded to grass and generally
improved and beautified. A commit
tee was also appointed to negotiate
for the balance of the half block on
which the west end school house is
located, a lot and a half being already
the. property of the city. Another
important item of the business of the
meeting was the election of Mrs.
Spielmaa as teacher of the Bead
school for the summer term on the
unanimous recommendation of the
patrons "of the school. Now that the
end of the term for which they were
elected to one of the most' important
trusts of all public matters draws
near, it is bat justice to say that the
Columbus school board have dis
charged their duty faithfully and well,
and richly deserve the gratitude of
the entire commnnity.

The Grand Prairie Literary
Society and Alliance met at the
Badenbaugh school house March 21st
85. House called to order by presi
deat D. J. Poe. Minutes of last meet
iag read and approved. Motion car
ried that the constitution be so
amended that officers should serve
eight weeks instead of four. The fol
lowing were duly elected as officers
for the ensuing term : J. S. Freeman,
president, Wm. Mullen, vice-president,
C- W- Freeman, secretary, D.
L. Bruen, assistant secretary, George
Sherto, Treasurer. The debate was
strongly contested and decided in
favor of the negative. The question
for the next debate is, Besolved, that
immigration should be stopped.
Motion carried that D. L. Bruen and
J. S. Freeman act as leaders in the
next debate. Adjourned till Satur
day evening, April 4th, '85. CW.
Freeman, secretary.
The debate at the Grand Prairie
Literary and Alliance meeting recent
ly on the question of prohibiting by
law the use of liquor and tobacco
must have created considerable inter
est, judging by what we hear. Judge
Freeman presented a fearful array of
figures showing the terrible expense
ef liquor and tobacco, while Bruen
relied upon the bible in pleading for
the use of wine. The decision of the
judges was in favor Bruen's side of
the debate. Elsewhere we give some
of John's figures, but have not heard
just what arguments Mr. Bruen made.
These coatests of mental gladiators in
the arena of conflicting views upon
exciting political and social topics
have a tendency to toughea the mea
ts! muscle of the combatant?, and to
whet the swords of their spirits.
Jao. S. Freeman, in a debate at
the Bedenbaugh school house recently
upon the question of prohibiting, by
law, the use of intoxicating liquors
aad tobacco, adduced the following
figures as an estimate of the probable
amount of these commodities used
yearly in Platte county, and the State
of Nebraska:

Number of saloons in county.. 14

For March is an unusually inter
esting number, combining as it does
articles of present interest with those
of permanent value. It opens with a
careful study by Lisle Lester of
Madame Bistori, with a portrait and
several illustrations in character.
Professor Charles A. Joy contributes
an article on a Jersey cattle farm, and
Oscanyan furnishes an extremely in
teresting paper on "The Armenians."
"The Story of Queen Matilda of Den
mark and Count Struenzee" is a val
uable historical contribution, by F.
St. John Brenon, and cSomething
about Children's Books," with its
quaint fac simile illustrations, shows
U4 the juvenile literature loved by
our grandparents when they were
boys and girls. "Pate de Foie Gras,"
by Nugent Robinson will appeal to
the gourmet, and "Staten Island, its
Past and its Present," by J. Barnitz
Bacon, to the local antiquarian, while
the naturalist will be equally inter
ested in "The Origin of our Domesti
cated Animals," by the Bev. M. G.
Welkins. The eminent traveler and
author, David ETer, is represented by
two articles, the one "A Meeting
with Afghan Bobbers," and the other
"From Sebastopool to Kief," both
thrilling and interesting. All these
articles are fully illustrated. The
serial story,uThe death-mark," reaches
its twenty-fiflh chapter, and there are
several short stories and some beauti
ful poems. The miscellany is well
selected and entertaining. Published

Ed. Jocbxai: : It is with a feeling
of sadness I read the death of Frank
North in the Journal. I was not
personally acquainted with him while
I lived in Nebraska, but be made my
house his home most of the time when
he was in this state 4 or 5 years ago
for his health, and although suffering
more or less from asthma he showed
his true goodness and greatness and
we came to love him in fact.
This day after a long spell of dry
weather the welcome rain again
visited us. We have had a good
shower and more is in the atmos
phere. Crops have not suffered much
in this vicinity as yet, as the early
winter rains were heavy and ground
well soaked. Wheat ha3 ruled the
lowest so far since harvest aa it has
ever been in this state, and now also
the orange crop pays the producer
but a very little money, and corn and
potatoes, apples &c, pay better here;
eggs are very low also; beef and
pork are about the only high-priced
articles ; choice beef stakes 15 eta. in
country ; pork and mutton, 12 to 15 ;
wheat about $1.25 per 100 lbs. at mar
ket Port Costa. Blackberries are in
bloom here, apricot, quinces, pears,
peaches, &c Business is dull, or
more so than last year, and most
people are going slow.
Yours truly,
