The Long Pine Journal rises to

day la6t week. He was brought to
town to get his broken planter mend

nicely. If seeds are put in early and
properly cultivated afterward, no jus-'
tifiable complaint can ever'be brought
against the Nebraska soil for. not
doing its full part.
The phrase "printer's deviP owes
its origin to the fact that the first
errand boy employed by William
Ca'xton, the first printer, the sou of a
gentleman of- French descent named
De Villc, or Deville and the name
thus came to-be applied to printers'
apprentices. In this' office the boys
call. him '-Satan." We believe that in
1885 it' is time, to abolish -all such
"opprobrious;names, and in the future
direct that our youthful help be called
by his rigtit name,' Leander 'McFar

Facts concerning Nebraska are
sometimes so utterly impossible of
belief by eastern people who don't
know what Nebraska is, that ludi
crous things sometimes take place.
A story in poiut. A young man of
moderate means left his home in the
east to try bis fortune in tho west.
He was engaged to a young lady of
good family, and was to return in a
year or two to claim his intended
wife. He took a homestead of 160
acres, in Nebraska, and made 6uch
good use of his few hundred dollars
that in two years he bad a good team
of horse9, a few cows and pigs, a
little house, seventy acres of corn,
&c, &c. Returning to his old home
(not having, in the meantime, written
of his acquisitions) he happened to
speak of his affairs, when the father
of his intended bride spoke up and
told him that he could never consent
to the marriage of a daughter of his
with such a notorious liar, as he had
evidently become since he went to
Nebraska, and the young man was
compelled to return without bis in

The coming Ssengerfest, to be held
in Lincoln on June 23, 24, 25, 26, and
27, 1885, will undoubtedly be one of
the grandest events ever known in
the history of Nebraska. Out of all
the cities in the four great states of
Missouri, Iowa, Kansas and Ne
braska, Lincoln was chosen as the
place of assembly for this year's
affair.
It will be a very carnival of music
and song, and the programme will be
of such a varied and interesting na
ture as will be thoroughly enjoyed
by all classes, young and old. Mem
bers will be present from tho singing
societies of the four states named, the
aggregate numbering abont 1500.
Some of the township boards will
sit as a board of equalization the week
preceding the next session of the
county board of supervisors (which
begins Tuesday, Jnne 2d), and the
latter sit then as a board of equaliza
tion. We understand that equaliza
tion as between individual property
owners must be attended to before
the town board, and that equalization
as between different towns only is
made by the connty board of super
visors. If yon have any grievances
or think you have, follow them clear
along the line.
"Being unable to meet his fine, be
languishes in the baa tile," is an ex
pression used by the Grand Islaud
Independent in regard to a tramp
there who lately attempted to outrage
a young woman, and stole $25 from
her. If the authorities of every town
in the state will provide work for all
such criminals and for vagrants, and
see that they work out their fines,
crimes and vagrancy will decrease,
and eastern dead-beats will not find
here a feathered nest.
An exchange is trying its band
on the selection or manufacture of
spring poetry. This is the result of
scissors or mental effort:
Now break your backs
And cripple your knees,
And plant, your potatoes,
Cucnmbers and peas
For the gluttonous slug
And the festive bug
Will laugh at such luxuries.
Another
The June-bug has a gaudy wing,
The lightning-bug the flame;
The bed-bug has no wings at all.

benefit from Electric Bitters, I feel it
my duty to let suffering humanity
