R A 1 m Bl Si 82s 4fMinsfaritt, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2, 1886. Tbe Congressional Jiecord cost over $125,000 last year, while the gales from it amounted to only $1, 601.28. Bial's rebellion in the Northwest, it is said, cost Canada $4,700,000, and the casualties were twenty-six men killed and 206 wonnded. Business failures are set down in the United States and Canada for the past week, at 167, againBt 176 last week, and 192 the previous week. It is claimed that tobacco in Vir ginia is selling for less than the cost of fertilizers used upon the lands. It is a crop that speedily exhausts the land. Charles B. Signoh, of Plum Creek, Neb., has passed the examina tion at Annapolis and enters the academy. He is said to be a bright and intelligent boy. The Grand Jury at Hileboro, Mo., have returned indictments against fifty-nine of the late railroad strikers. Only four persons have been arrest ed, the others having escaped. The party of Jeff. Davis is limited to the ex-confederates and the sen sible ones of them know that the "lost cause" is lost. Jeff. Davis is a remembrance rather than a force. A block of auriferous quartz was taken out the other day of the esti mated value of $350,000 in the gal leries of Oscar gold mine, Bonnel Island, on tho west coast of Norway. Mulleb, a German chemist, has fed animals ten weeks with dry and steeped unground Indian corn. Tho former showed an av erage increase in weight of nearly seven pounds more than the latter. Thebe was considerable excite ment in the House of Commons on the afternoon of the 25th ult., in con sequence of a report that Gladstone had tendered his resignation of the government to the Queen. The President has vetoed two senate bills granting pensions to David W. Hamilton and John D. Hall. The President states that he fails to find, in each case, sufficient foundation for the claim. James W. Dawes, Governor of this state, has offered a reward of $200 for the arrest and conviction of the person who murdered Christopher Ruhle, in Douglas county, Neb., on the night of May 14th, 'SG. Dns. Buchkkb and Emmerich have found evidence during their studies in Sicily as to the origen of cholera, that the disease makes its way into the system through the lungs rather than through the alimentary canal. Gcs Johnson and young Dixon, while driving across the prairie near Shelby, Polk Co., Neb., the other day were struck by lightning. Johnson and the horses were instant ly killed and Dixon knocked sense less. Martin Ikons, of Scdalia, Mo., re ceived a notice in some way the other day that a mob intended to visit him for the purpose of notifying him to leave the country, took ad vantage of their visit aud skipped for parts unknown. The funeral services of Mrs. Alice Pendleton took place in New York on the 25th ult., and were conducted by the simple Protestant Episcopal services at ion's church. The body was taken to Woodlawn cemetery for temporary interment. A widow in India is a thing ac cusred. She must do all the family drudgery, never entertain a cheerful thought, even, or dream of marrying again. Thero aro 55,000 widows in Calcutta alone, aud it is supposed there aro 5,000,000 in the country at large. Citizens of Omaha are anxious to have some well known capitalist of New York eome to Omaha and start a paper mill. The company will be able to operate mills, which will sup ply the paper trade of the entire western country, giving employment to 300 or 400 workmen. George Baknuabt, one of the Stato Commissioners, found three glandered horses the other day nine miles west of Humphrey. They be longed to one of the contractors grading the Chicago & Northwestern railroad, which runs through the northern part of this county. Green and Withers, two colored men, were arrested last week in Denver, for the murder of a 6treet car driver. Withers made confes sion and charged the crime on Green. Their object was to rob the cash box, which they failed to secure. The police of Denver believe they have sufficient evidence to hang Green. Curiositv ha at last been quieted by the announcement that President Cleveland will be married at the White House this eveuiner, June 2d. to Mis Francis Fo'aom, Rev. Sunder land of the First Presbyterian chnrch of Washington officiating. Invita tions were limited to near relations, and members of the cabinet and their wives. Capt. Schaack of the Chicago police has discovered the entire pro gram of a plot concocted by the anarchists to blow up the Board of Trade, police stations and various other public buildings, in the city on Jane 14th. The sorest affliction a city ran have is a mayor and officials who will not enforce the laws, promptly and effectively upon the first violation. The truth is that when it is known the law will be vigorously upheld, the criminally in- lined will be found eisewnere, u i State Politics. Judge Wm. Gaslin will bo a can didate for congress in the second dis trict. The McCook Democrat says this is an open secret, and that Jas. Laird will need the use of both eyes to watch his judicial opponent. It seems that Amasa Cobb might be the candidate selected to make the run against Van Wyck. The peo ple should demand a political canvass of the state by Van Wyck, and the man who is to be his opponent for U. S. Senate. If the people of Ne braska wish to see Van Wyck re turned to the U. S. Senate, they must go to work and make an active, aggressive, wide-awake, thorough and unceasing campaign for him. It is evident, and has been evident all along tbat-the politicians who take care of the primaries and the county conventions are, as a rule, not favor able to Van Wyck's re-eiection. Their work will not appear, perhaps, in open opposition to him, but in an insidious effort to break bis strength by the selection of candidates for the house of representatives and senate who would, when in Lincoln, give but feeble aid to Van Wyck's friends, at any time, and, on plausible oppor tunity, would go bodily to the op position. On tho other hand, the mere politicians, looking only to the success of the parly in the coming campaign, must sec where it lies. They know (as everyone thinks) that if the issue was to bo decided directly by the vote of the people, Van Wyck's cndoisemcmt by re election wonld be practically unani mous, and it would be correct, be cause, if there is a public man in Washington representing the peo ple's desiro in government affairs, saying what they would like to say, and doing what they would like to do, that man is the senior senator from Nebraska, who has proven himself a fearless advocate of public interests. The people may not al ways be right, but they aro never wholly wrong, and it would simply be an outrage upon them if politi cians, by hook and by crook, defeat their will. Individual citizens must assert themselves, if they would have their wishes provail with their fellow-citizens ; they must not allow themselves to be deceived by mere professions; protestations of fealty are not enough. Whenever it seems necessary to pledge a nominee to a certain course of action, it looks to tho Journal as though that fact alone was sufficient to beware mak ing such nominations. It is best to have men whose sentiments aud sym pathies are so well known as to need no certificate or pledge. It looks to us, considering all things, that the only course open to securing the re election of Van Wyck is a canvass all along the line, from this time tor ward, 6uch a canvass as will crygtal ize the opposition, at every point where it might possibly all'cct the result. Tke Me Remedy. Tho deeds of violence at Chicago are not to- be without their good effects upon the entire country, which looks to tho cities for the cropping out of eviis which affect the general body politic, and to the same source also for a remedy. In all other matters, so with this, it is a main proposition with the Journal to enforce the laws first, last, aud all along; those who threaten violence to life or property should bo taken care of by the officials as inciting to crime. When this is done, the best thing is done that can be, on the start, and, if officials are vigilant, there need be nothing nioro than beginnings. Political parties must throw them selves on the side of law, and against anarchy ; on the side of preservation and against destruction ; on the side of general prosperity, aud against depression of all good interests. We like well the langnago of Dave Littler the other day at tho meeting of the Republican State Central Com mittee of Illinois, and the Journal is glad that such sentiments are held by the great body of the American people: "There arc certain important ques tions ripe for decision. The time is at hand when the Republican party must express itself through its rep resentatives. I need not tell you what horrors and bloody deeds have come from disobedience of law in this State. The Kepublican party must pass resolutions on the labor question. I say to yon that it must make it clear that the majesty of the law must be upheld. At the next convention it will be asked not only to continue but to increase the mili tia of the State. The next Legisla ture must adopt sufficient legislation to insure to each citizen, high or low capitalist or laborer, the rights of life, liberty, and property. What else is government fcr? It must be con ceded that great crimes have been done in our midst. I charge no official with dereliction of duty. This, however, I will 6ay that had I been the Governor of this State I would have called out all the power of the State to quell these troubles. Applause. This trouble should never have been allowed to gather bead. I believe in the right of every man to strike for shorter hours or larger wages. But neither law nor party can recognize the right of any man or body of men to march under the red flag, dofying, insulting the law. Such an institution ought to be and will be put down." Every word here is solid ; every proposition sound, and the remedy adequate. Let citizens everywhere insist on the enforcement of every law. A destructive fire occurred in in the Adams block, Chicago, on the evening of the 26th ult. The block is a large brick and stone structure at the corner of Congress street and Washburn avenue. The building was occupied by publishers, book binders, lithographers and furniture, and in a very short time, the inflam mable material ih the bnilding was on fire from top to bottom. The loss of property, including the bnilding, Will reach a Billion dollars, News Ifte. Dr. Mary Walker can Burelv. afford to dress like now, other women. Shaw, a notorious criminal, made his escape from: the - garden of. the Joliet penitentiary. James Dawson's three children were burned to death in the house the other night at Rushville, Ind. It was reported last week that Sibbet, of David City, had been ar rested on a stato warrant for fraud. Ex-Governor Evans in sinking an artesian well in West Denver struck oil at a depth of eleven hundred feet. A -heavy fire was reported the other day at Barnam, Minn. The mill yards and residence of the em ployes were in flames. Considering everything there ib probably a greater risk to life with those who travel in buggies than those who go in the cars. President Cleveland has nomi nated to the senate Alexander H. Baker, receiver of public moneys at Grand Island, Nebraska. Col. Webster, of Merrick county, Neb., was in Washington City last week, and it is reported he is a can didate for the collectorship. Frequent acts of incendiarism in Schenectady, N. Y., led to the arrest of three prominent young men pro fessional in that line of crime. Colorado offers a premium of $2 per hundred for every line of trees mantaiued along ditches, fences aud highways and properly cared for. The evidenco of guilt was still ac cumulating the early part or last week against Maxwell at St. Louis, charged with the murder of Prellcr. It is tho Journal's opinion that Chicago will be by all odds tho greatest city on the American con tinent, and that beforo very many years. The new Washington sewer is said to bo the largest iu tho world. It is large enough for a team of horses and load ot hay to be drawn through the entrance. William Dimm, of Plaitsmouth, Neb., the other day while descending a well was precipitated to the bot tom by the breaking of tho rope, suffering instant death. Henry Cassford, living not far from Table Bock, in Johnson county, Neb., had his barn struck by light ning ouo night last week, burniug the barn and quito an amount of bay and grain. Snake-charmer, Hathway, whilo exhibiting a big anaconda in St. Louis the other da', the eerpant, be ing coiled around his body, was struck savagely on the head. It is thought the man will die. The Omaha Republican and State Journal started the war against Sen ator Van Wyck, and have constantly kept it up, and "in tho name of hu manity" they will justly becbargable with all th6 discord, disorganization, bad feeling, bolting and temporary ruin of the republican party and every othjsr bad thing that may strike the party, following legitimately out of their unjust war against the Senator. The people of Nebraska know whether he is working for or against their interests and will decide the question of his continuance, without personal warfare against him, which seems so blinded as to believo itself productive of all harmony. orrtsponfeme. In this department the people talk, and not the editor. Each writer must hold himself ready to defend his principle and his statements of facts. "In the mul titude of counsel there is wi9dom." Ed. Journal. Kor the Journal. At Home Acala. Mr. Editor: Your correspondent was called to attend an important meeting in Cincinnati, O. He bad had thus a chance to travel through and peep into fivo different states, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky, his former home. Those that heard 4f his journey and know of his scribbling propensity may ex pect to see something of his journey in the Journal. Cincinnati he had not seen for nearly eleven years and it baa great ly changed. Immense buildings have been added, and the city has been greatly enlarged and beautified. In tho lower or business part of it the atmosphere is as dark and smoky as ever, and I am afraid the moral at mosphere is not any better than it ought to bo, and they need not blame some when they call it "Sinsin naughty." Strikes were tho order of the day during my stay, nor is it astonish ing. I learned that poor women are compelled to make pants and shirts for $1 a df.zen, that strong men had to do work for 85 cents a day and board themselves and sup port their families where everything id high. When I compared glaring poverty with pricenly riches as seen there side by side, it hardly seems to require the inflammatory talk or socialists, common ists and anarchists to stir up tho smouldering fire under the ashes. But while, on the other hand, I cannot but condemn tho avarice and grasping of rich employ ers who, to enrich themselves, squeeze every drop out of the poor laborer, I am sorry that the laborers for the most part- keep themselves poor by supporting the thousands of saloons, the immense distilleries, the extensive breweries and the different places of amusement. There it is where hard earned wages go, to a great extent. Thousands of those who live from hand to mouth, might own houses and lands, and thus be not at the mercy of cut throats, calling themselves employ ers, but what might have been saved If gome dowa the throat. On my way back I got to Chicago a day or two after the great riot and stayed a few days. The troubles bad changed public opinion very greatly. Men like Most, Spies, Parsons and others bad been looked upon as harmless lunatics, but since the seed sowed has aprang up and prodncod a harvest of blood and death, people begin to see with different eyes, and some of these "harmless lunatics" have all at once become objects of great attention for the authorities, for grand juries and for the public. But as even in this great country they can never bang anyone until they catch him, they are after Par sons and others yet, while they havo Most and Spies not, howevor, hon orable, honest and sturdy "county judge but one who has a similar name and not the same character. Public opinion was in favor of the laboring classes; by these bloody riots it was turned around as upon a pivot And yet, who i3 to blame ? These poor, ignorant Bohemians and Polanders, or those agitators that stirred them up and inflamed their passions? And again, why were these tigers in human form suffered to tell them to rob aud kill, to teach them to prepare dynamite etc? Are not the authorities responsible for the blood of those noble policemen and others ? Old heathen Rome had its strikes. The plebeian laborers struck aud went to a place outside the city intending to build a new town. The patricians deputation and Menenius Agrippa, at the head of it, addressed the plc bians iu about tho following words: "There arose among the different mem bers of tho human body a great troub le. They would not work any lender for the stomach, as it vas idly sitting in their midst only con suming all they earned. So they all struck. But the result was that the stomach, getting nothing to digest, could not send out nourishment, and the whole body aud every member languished." This parablo is strikiug, and yet it does not meet the case. Tho hu man body, Is no just emblem of tho body of human society, as the latter is in an abnormal condition, distracted by hnman solfishness. To restrain this human selfishness is tho object of all law, and therefore laws should be so perfect that small thieves, not only, but big ones also, should be restrained by it. Passing rapidly through the above named states of Iowa, Illinois and Indiana, the eye feasts upon more diversified scenery that hero in Ne braska, yet your writer is convinc ed that the practised eye of the far mer will easily and quickly decide in favor of our own garden state. Such uniform good quality of the soil, such natural drainage is nowhere else to be seen. When Nebraska shall have been settled as long as these her sister states and any of them, she will leave them all behind in the race. If some readers of tho Journal at a distance should be tempted to look upon these state ments as a little smelling of egotisni-woll-now-then-tbey most pardon it. Yours etc., A. II. ' Ed. Journal, Dear Sir: I notice that tiie editor of the Democrat iu his last issue purports to give the price of wheat in the London market from 1SS2 to 1886, which shows the price to be on a continuous decline. Tho editor of tho Democrat then says that this declino in the price of wheat is due to the protection policy of the United States government. Now I can't believe this assertion of friend Davis to be correct, and have always been led to believe that protection of the manufacturing in terests of this nation, elevated rather than depreesed the value of farm products, but would be very glad to havo Mr. Davis give me some light on this subject, through the columns of his paper. I earnestly and sincerely ask for reasons; let us see why this is! Jake. ADDITIONAL LOCAL. niHmark XewMMhlp. Gerhold's bridge was finished, and teams crossing on the 21st. The small grain is in fine condition, and promises a rich harvest. Corn-planting was finished some time ago, in this neighborhood. Lonis Newberg has purchased a supply of farm machluery this spring. Louis Heiden Bold a load of fat hogs, at an average of five dollars a head. Mr. Head, of Temple Hill, Iowa, is visiting with onr esteemed Citizen Mr. John Connelly. Messrs. Williams, Love, and quite a number of others, have to replant their corn, owing to bad seed. T. M. Wilson has purchased a light wagon ; we suppose he intends to canvass the couutry-as a book agent. The visitors at the Academy dur ing the past week, were, Miss Etta Moore, and Messrs. Hasley, Head, and Connelly. Jacob Greien of Columbus was In Birmark on the 17th, viewing the beautiful ncencry which' surrounds us on every hand. L. U.

George Hodel has seeded an other wise useless slough with flax, timo thy, and clover for pasture ; he has purchased 2,700 bushels of corn of C. J. Moore. Ptoato bugs are appearing in large' numbers tnis year, and promise to destroy the potato crop, unless some effective measures are taken to check their ravages. W. H. Swartley met with a tempo rary loss the other day ; bis valuable mare slipped into a badger's bole, and got pretty badly hurt. This is an nnfortnnate accident especially as this is tbe tine for patttag in tae crops. Rev.

Giles, was killed by lightning on Saturday night, 22 d inBt,; this is quite a heavy loss, an Mr. Giles paid $750 for the horse ; we learn that it was insured for 1300. About the most forlorn man in these parts is a certain J. P. who, besides dispensing law to all ap plicants, essays to do the housework for a number of young men, who work tha farm; iu his despair he wrote a letter to a friend, which came to the notice of your corres pondent, an extractor which although it may not be of interest to the gen eral reader, yet nhonld it come to tho notice of a person in Denver may hasten their return: "Wife wanted to visit friends in Denver, so I pro posed to do the cooking, thinking I would be sure of a variety, and my mind went back to childhood' happy days, how wo relished a Sunday diuncr of baked beans and pumkin pie, after sitting three hours on hard benches at church. So I thought to nrej-aro an old fashioned, New England dinner for Sunday; I filled a lnrL' bake pan with beaus, pnt about five pounds of pork on top, put in sonm water, and set them in a roaring hot oven. After a little, smoke began coming out of the oven ; I opeued the door and out came the beans; the oven was full and some on fire; I raked them out, and filled all my spare dishes with beans, and my clean floor was all spoiled for Sunday. I pat down, aud how I wished wife was here; 6ho'd say "never mind," but my mother never did. Shant take any more beans; wish wife would come on next train. Think a woman should always be around when thero are beans to bake." T. D. X. A .Tlot UemarkableCoNC. During tho summer of 1884, suf fering from blood poisoning, the re sult of a gun-shot wound received during the "laic unpleasantness," my Htf.-ntit.t: was called to the remedy of S. S. S. through the public press, and I wrote to the proprietors of that medicine, describing my case, which I repeat for the benefit of other sufferers. The ball struck the elbow joint and went through. It com pletely crushed all the articolative Eurfaro of the humeral so that both condylos and say four inches of the shaft of the bone were removed by the snrgeon. It also severed the ulnar uerve. The operation left the arm much shortened and limber, but it was vrry useful. Some time in the fall of 1879 it commenced to swell and inflame below the elbow, and soon after i suppurated and dis charged horribly offensive matter. The sore spread until the entire fore arm was a putrid mass, encroaching both on the back and palm of the hand. I was warned by the surgeons that thip might happen in after life from uervo and blood poverty below the elbow. My condition may be imagined at that time. The wound was so offensive that I could hardly remain in a close room. I tried many remedies, external and internal, but to no avail. In June, 1884, 1 saw the advertisement of Swift's Specific in the city papors, and I wrote im mediately to tho house in Atlanta, receiving tho following as a reply: "We fear onr S. S. S. will do you no good except as a tonic." The very frankness of the reply induced me to try it. I was a good patient and rigidly followed the directions. The first bottle nearly drove me crazy with pymptoms I cannot describe, but it (and I feel a lump in my throat as I writo it) entirely removed the frightful smell which had tormented roe and all who came in contact with me for so long a time. As I con tinued the use of the medicine, say in a month or six weekp, marked im provement was apparent, until, as the winter set in, it bad so healed that I conld and did wear a sleeve on my underclothing, which I had not done In three years before. The nicer was very obstinate, and it was not until the middlo of 1885 that it was en tirely well. All redness and sore ness has disappeared. Hair is grow ing on the arm as before, and I ascribe all this to Swift's Specific. an ordinance: Levying a tax on property in the city of Columbus, Nebraska, for general revenue purposes, and for the maintenance of leaierworics m saia ciiy, ana jor paying interest upon bonds for the construction of waterworks.
