J r ! :.' m IX . I u 4ltlsfMCl WEDNESDAY, JULYS, 1885. The President has appointed James B. Hays of Wisconsin to be chief justice of the supreme conrt of the 'territory of Idaho. The jury at Chicago in the Mackin perjury case returned a verdict of guilty. The punishment is five years in the penitentiary. Chbis. Dohl, a Norwegian, work ing with the bridge company at Oak land, Neb., was drowned the other evening in Logan Creek, while bathing. Mbs. Dudley was tried the other day in New York for shooting O'Donovan Roesa. The jury acquit ted her after being out five minutes, on the ground of insanity. Plattsmouth will claim the loca tion of the next government building. Isn't it possible to obtain a govern ment building up in the central part of the State? say, at Columbus. Gen. A. B. Upshaw, a prominent journalist of Tennessee, has been ap pointed chief clerk of the bureau of Indian affairs. He is an intimate friend of Commissioner Atkins. Senator Van Wtck is kept pretty busy. He started from Washington Monday, was about a day home at Nebraska City and passed through here Friday evening for Norfolk, where he spoke Saturday. The State Fair, to be held at Lin coln Sept 11th to 18th promises to be one of the very best ever held in the State. Robt. W. Furnas, the present secretary, is actively engaged in for warding the interests of the asso ciation. The President has appointed the following gentlemen as government directors of the Union Pacific : Fran cis Kernan of New York, Edmund Noyes of Ohio, Gen. E. P. Alexander of Georgia, Franklin McVeigh of Illinois, and J. W. Savage of Ne braska. Fort Niobrara, this state, now accommodating four companies of cavalry, will be increased to a size for the accommodation of an entire reg iment. It is claimed that Fort Robi son will also receive its share of the appropriation for the repairs of mili tary posts. While Prof. Shippy and family were rowing the other day on the Des Moines river, at Algona, Iowa, their boat upset, all were thrown into the water and Mrs. Shippy and two children drowned. Shippy was res cued. He was principal of the Al gona schools. J. C, Santee ua made of himself a stench in ihe wctri!t of tlioee who know Lins, by loub!f-U-nliiir, having pretemlod to support Maine last fall and couiir.i torwmd now with nit affidavit that he votfil lor Cleveland. This should certain! make him an "offensive partizm." A lakge crowd of people attended the laying of the corner stone of the new M. E church the other afternoon at Beatrice, Neb The services were conducted by Rev. V. K. Hi-anp, the pastor, agisted by sevt ral other min isters. The church is to be of stone and brick, and will cost about $25,000. C. H. Tanner, a lawyer of Hast ings, assaulted John Crcctb, local editor of the Gazette-Jotirnal, the other evening, while he was seated at the supper table, injuring and bruis ing him badly. The affair grew out of an article that appeared iu the Gazette-Journal relative to one of Tan ner's daily drunks. John McCui.i.ougii. the actor, was one day last week turned oyer to the Blooiuingdale, N. Y., insane asylum. The action in the matter was taken at the iuMnnce of his beet friends, and approved by ihe medical examiners of his ease, v. ho found his mental weakness very great, demanding im mediate attention. At the recent meeting of Ihe del egates at Lincoln, Neb, composing the Pioneer Sieugerbund, Kansas City wa selected as the place for holding the next meeting of the biennial test. The following officers were elected: President, Gus. Or toff, of Kansas City; secretary, H. Fernecke, Lincoln. The Norfolk Neics reads the Omaha Republican one of the severest lessons ever we remember seeing, over its misrepresentations concerning the attitude of Norfolk people, towards the selection of Senator Van Wyck as the orator on the Fourth. It seems very 6trange that the Republican should so falsi I v matter. Gen. Grant's physician ncknowlj edges that the end ot the GeneralV life appears to he approachiug, but When it may occur no oue cad fore- . tell. Iu'orroation has got out from Mt. .McGregor, in some way, that Grant's cancer ha? begun to inflame . the jugular -vein, and death is a ques tion of only a few day. Since con tradicted. Thieves and burglars at the recent great gathecing'of people at Lincoln were plentiful, and plied their calling industriously. The residence of W. C. Mills was burglarized and jewelry of Mrs. Mills carried off valued at $500. A number of other thefts were reported and some of the thieves cap tured, but the chap who succeeded in . getting the $600 worth of jewelry made his escape. The New liepublic at Lincoln is authority for saying that John B. Finch will take part in the Ohio cam paign. John B. will find that be will not be received so cordially as before. Fiscb made bis temperance principles a cloak for doiug Ihe work needed by the democratic party However suc cessful a double-dealing course may be for a time, the American people Jove fair play ud a square Issue. The Omaha Herald is trying to make its democratic 'readers believe that they need not be without hope, even in Nebraska. This is said with special reference to the next election of U. S. Seaator. "Let us look at the figures," says the Herald. "A ma jority of the Nebraska legislature on joint ballot is 67. Ordinarily demo crats have elected about half that number. With a united front, good organization and harmonious action it iB more than possible to go into 6ay thirty of the weaker republican die districts and clean out the faction-torn enemy. We mention this thus early that members of the party may pon der upon it and decide what is their duty in the premises." We call attention of republicans to this scheme, "thus early, that mem bers of the party may ponder upon it and decide what is their duty in the premises." Of course, it is good gen eralship to attack an enemy's weak points, and wc don't wonder at the Herald's talk "thus early." It is the opinion of the Journal, however, that the Herald has uot called atten tion quite early enough for capturing the state from the republicans, who are doubtless occaMonally divided among themselves, but who cau be a unit against democratic supremacy in Nebraska. Seeing that Miss Maggie M. Bow ers (whose tame as a teacher of chil dren has reached beyond the borders of her own county of Booue) has closed her school near Cedar Rapids, it may not be out of place to say that, with her qualities as an instructor of youth in learning to read, write and cipher, she adds the abilities of a dis ciplinarian, not being unused to ex treme measure, in extreme cases. At one of her schools, so our information rons, she wsb sometime annoyed by boys of the ruder sort coming to the school door, knocking and running away. One day, well along in the afternoon, knocks on the door dis tracted the attention of the pupils and attracted the attention of the teacher, who qnietly slipped to the door, and in the very midst of the knocks open ed it, hurriedly caught the offender by the head, shook him and pumraeled him just as a woman and a school teacher would, and, blows ceasing, words of course followed not over gently, when the upturned counte nance of the raBh offender opened midway, and wished to know what in this world he had done to merit snch treatment. Our information is not to that degree of certainty to enable us (o say whether this young man was her best beau, but his subsequent treatment by the accomplished teach er was diflercut, from the knocks at the door. Once in awhile duiing the last twenty years Gen. Grant has been called "a bloody butcher," a general with tio line M-uibilitle?, ai:d uo especial qualification as a gcnerul, except that having command of over whelming number?, he kept pound ing en his enemy until be broke him to pieces. The following shows what was the opinion of ids great opponent Gen. Robt. E. Lee : "Somebody in his pteet cc had ic ttrred to Gen. Giunt as a 'military accident, who had uo distinguishing merit, but had achieved success through a combination of fortuuatc circumstances ' Gen. Lee looked into the critic's r)e steadily, and said: 'Sir, your opinion is a very poor com pliment to me. We all thought Richmond, protected as it was by our spleudid fortification and defended by our army veterans, could not be taken. Yet Grant turned his faco to- our capital, and never turned it away until we surrendered. Now, I have carefully searched the military rec ords of both ancient and modern his tory, and have never found Grant's superior as a general. I doubt if his superior can be found in all history.'" The democratic party, as the cam paigns in Ohio and New York open, has got to go through the fnrnace of discussion. Democratic performance is then going to be compared with democratic promise, and it is going to he remorselessly done because truthfully done. The democratic ad ministration is to be put into the balance and weighed at its worth. That is what the entrance of such leaders as Blaine into the state cam paigns this fall meanB. It means that the stern, hard tests will be applied with an eucrtrv that will break through any tigi-ue of pretense that cau be woven. The election of Gen eral Logau in Illinois put nerve into the republican party everywhere. The appearance of James G. Blaine on Ihe Ohio stump will be a signal that the era of lenieucy has passed and Ihe lime of stern judgment has come. Sioux City Journal. Chicago was the scene of a very foolish strike and riot the other morn ing. The west division treet car company seut out cars on its Madison street line, but the drivers were com pelled to return to the barns. Fully 1,000 strikers and citizens were assem bled near the barns and when the cars came out they were met with a volley of bricks and stones which shivered the window panes and caus ed other wreckage about the cars. Policemen and deputy sheriffs made arrests but great crowds of excited men thronged Madison street and whether the compauy will attempt to run their cars agaiu or not until quiet is restored is not at present known. "Persons who despair of ever be ing rich make little account of small expensee, thiuking that little added to little will never make any great sum. So is it with those who despair of ever ordering their conduct according to reason, until, one after another, every good purpose is throwu into the sea of vice. The outmost cur: rents of the maelstrom are easy to resist, but, ouco in the strong grasp of the central vortex, resistance is unavailing, and the victim circles more rapidly ontji swallowed out of Eight" John Scukam sends us from Seattle the following scrap clipped, presum ably, from a Washington newspaper. It may cause a look at the map by some one who has been making blun ders similar to that mentioned. . The west (west of us) is a very large coun try, and it is well enough to have it, in mind, as to the principal features : "The extent to which Oregon has claimed the credit for the productions of Washington Territory has been fre quently commented upon. We are used to hearing of the Columbia as an Oregon river, of Oregon salmon, Ore gon lumber, Oregon spars, Oregon mountains, and Oregon fruit and grain. The density of the Ignorance of the people of the East in regard to the geography of the Pacific North west, however, was never so gener ally displayed as it has been in the comments made by the Eastern press on the appointment of Capt. Beecber as Collector of Customs at Port Townsend. His office is invariably spoken of as an Oregon collectorsbip, regardless of the fact that Port Town send is not within a hundred and fifty miles of Oregon, and that the Customs District of Puget Sound is entirely within Washington Territory. What is most astonishing is the fact that this lamentable ignorance is displayed bv such papers as the New York World, Tribune and Times, the Phil adelphia Press, the Chicago Tribune, Ihe Brooklyn Union, and many others which might be supposed to possess more accurate knowledge. The Kan sas City Journal even goes so far as to locate the headquarters of the dis tiictat Portland. At the present rate Puget Souud will soou be spoken of as au Oregon pond, and Mount Rai nier as au Oregon hillock." The G. A. R. and strangers to the uumber of one bundled thousand have taken Portland, Me. The en campment is a grand success. The body met the other morning. Logan was present and made a brief and neat speech. During this meeting a contest came up for the place of hold ing the next session between San Francisco and Nashville; San Fran cisco received 269, and Nashville 178 votes. From recent reports from thirty-eight departments there ap pears now to be 270,000 members. A secret conference of medical men of the executive committee of the International Medical association was held the other day in Chicago. Fifty delegates were reported present. The object of the confereuce was to unite upon some course of action in the event of any general epidemic ap pearing in the United States. James H. Danley of Lincoln, 111., was arrested the other day for alleged swindling to the amount of $40,000 by issuing false notes. His operations have been going on for five years and will reach $80,000. Danley had the confidence of the community and is a church member. lYewf IYoteM. There are 18,602 female students in the American colleges. West Point carried bouds for the construction of water-works by a vote of 100 to 65. One hundred dollars per year has been added to the salary ot the Fre mont post-office. It is well for the people to know that in point of wealth Indiana ranks seventh iu the Union. The greater part of Iron River vil lage, Mich, was but tied the other morning. Loss, $50,000. Recent cholera leports from Mad rid for one day say 1,322 new cases and 602 deaths occurred. The St. Paul and Omaha railway is making arrangements to erect u new passenger depot at Omaha. The bent time yet made between New York and Liverpool is six days, nine hours and fifty minutes. The army of the United States on a war footing (those subject to mil itary duty, on call) numbers 3,750,000 men. Rohinson's ciicus came iu compe tition with the Advent camp-meeting at Norfolk not long ago and captured the crowd. The fire which started the other day iu a skating riul; at Trenton, Ont., destroyed a block of stores, the Inoo ronctiincr $?? (). The appointment of a young lady, Miss Isabella Oates, to the post of vaccination officer at Loudon has cre ated quite a sensation. A child playing with matches caused the destiuction oi 232 house iu the Hungarian village of Nemedi, and made bankrupt the whole pop ulation. The whole uumber of visitors to Ihe New Orleans exposition was 1, 158,840. The Centennial exposition at Philadelphia was attended by 7, 910,966: Small-pox still prevails in Wash ington township, Harrison county, Iowa, aud the quarantine which had becu raised without permission has been again closed. James Windle, superintendent of the Case Manufacturing Company, 'at Columbus, Ohio, died the other day from the effects of morphine taken with suicidal intent. The Box Butte country is the last newly discovered Eden iu the ex treme western part of the state that holds out to the landless good soil, good walerand free homes. Small-pox has been reported to the war department at Washington from Ft. Davis, Texas. It has brokeu out in a viruleut form, and there are no facilities for taking care of the sick. Strawberries, on which paris green had been blown from a neigh boring potato, field, have occasioned several cases of serious illness in and near Easton, Pa., within a week past. Locusts by millions have made their appearance in Long Island, Staten Island. New Jersey is also infeeted, and in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, the nuisance ia said to be intolerable. Abel D. Evans, of Des Moines, la., a student at Cornell, was struck on the head the other 'day by a plauk, aud knocked from the bridge at Liv ermore Falls to the rocks below aud instantly killed. The jury iu the conspiracy case against Riddle and Reiber, Poun Bank officials at Pittsburg, acquitted the accused and declared the coats should be paid by the prosecutors, directors Cavett aud Carroll.. H. A. Myers of Baltimore, Md., convicted of beating his wire, re ceived twenty lashes the other day at the hands of the sheriff. Since the conviction of Pyers aud Myers there is much lets. wife-beating iu Mary land. At a parish church in Surry, Eug land, the other day, a widuuer of eighty-four was married to a widow of eighty-seven. The bridegroom was attended by a grandson, and the bride by a couple of great-granddaughters. Rev. D. S. D. Ferguson wast con secrated the other morning bishop of the Protestant Episcopal church at Grace church, N. Y. He is the first colored member of Ihe American house of bishops. He will soou go to Cape Palmer, where he will remain permanently. 'a'alilac Care ofThe Bedy. The Christian Index, Ihe leading organ of the Baptist church in ihe south, published in Atlanta, fcJav,.in its issue of Dec. 4, 1884, has tho .fol lowing editorial : Too many peoplo seem to think that a religious newspaper should bo con fined to the discussiou of moral and religious subjects only, forgetting that religion has to do both with the bodies and souls of men, "Prove all things, hold fast that which is good," has as much to do with the practical side of life as it has with the moral side. Our readers will bear testimoy that in all questions discussed in the Index, the practical has been duly set forth. In this paragraph, therefore, we only seek to present an article worthy of commendation. After subjecting it to the above test we have tried Swift's Specific and found it good good as a blood purifier, good as a health tonic. In this opinion we are sustained by some of the best men in the church. Rev. Jesse H. Camp bell, the Nestor of the Baptist de nomination in Georgia, says : "It is my deliberate judgment that Swift's Specific is the grandest blood purifier ever discovered. Its effects are won derful, and I consider them almost miraculous. There is no medicine comparable to it." Dr. H. C. Horna dy, one of the best known ministers in our church, says : "Swift's Specific is one of the best blood purifiers in existence." These brethren speak advisedly. But few preparations can bring for ward such endorsement. The Index desires only to endorse these statement-:. We have witnessed the ben eficial effects of this medicine, not only in our own houcho(dt, hut in several other oases where seemingly all other remedies bad failed. It is purely a vegetable compound, scien tifically prepared, and perfectly harm less in its composition. It renews the blood and builds up broken dowu y6ttms gives tone and vigor to the constitution, as well as restores the bloom of health to the suffering. Therefore, we do not deem it' incon sistent with tho duties of a religious journal to say this much in its bohalf. Treati-c on blood and skin diseases mailed free.
