Unity In Eaweatlalaw The Journal's suggestions as to the policy of the Bepublican party in the coming state campaign have elicit ed that sort of attention which is most gratifying, and we are confident that the policy will commend itself favorably to the great body of the party in Nebraska. Recognizing distinct and different elements of party strength, and providing for unity on national issues, the enuncia tion of principles will be sincerely made, mutual concessions as to can didates will beget confidence, and the results will show the wisdom of a policy of union on essentials. Above all other political parties ever organized, and having, under Provi dence, been allowed a noble career of usefulness, the Republican party is composed of an independent, intelli gent and progressive membership. Thoroughly imbued with that com mendable conservatism which holds fast to what is good, they are not un mindful of the fact that the world does move. Political events seem to ns to indicate plainly the direction in which things are moving, and party managers should wisely consider, not only the element that justly points with pride to past achievements, but also the fast-increasing element which looks forward with fond anticipations to the things that are to be. If the party wishes to maintain its ascend ancy and prolong its career of use fulness, it must still keep its stand upon the foundation rock of "equality before the law," and seek to develop the idea of justice to all interests, by the enactment of such laws as will meet new opportunities to do wrong with a new check in the interest of the public peace and welfare. Looking toward the future (as well as remembering the past) let us, if possible, add to party incentives such a "zeal, with knowledge," as will keep the grand host who preserved the Union,in such solid phalanx as to perpetuate it for all time. The nomination of Hon. Leander Gerrard for Governor, whose whole life is in consonauce with the sturdy, progressive career of the Republican party, would be a fitting pledge t progress, which would be respouded to with alacrity by Nebraska's thous ands of freemen. We last week saw a thirty acre field of wheat on Ben Font's farm in Lincoln precinct that was ahead of anything in the wheat line that we have ever seen in this stale. Mr. Pont tells us that the land had been seeded to tame graeB for a number of years and used for a pasture. That he last fall turned the heavy timothy sod under, and this spring sowed the ground to wheat. This shows Mr. Pont to be a very practical farmer. If more of the farmers would use their land in this manner, we would have less complaints of a short crop of small grain. Mr. Font's farm, which is situated two miles south of Buehville, consists of one hundred and sixty acres. He has twenty acres of thrifty young timber of hiB own planting, and he has an abun dance of timothy which he has just finished cutting. Schuyler Herald. Ruin and desolation mark the course of last week's storm near Kankakee, 111. Its course was to wards the southwest to a point near Clifton and Ashkum, the storm mow ed a swath three to five miles wide, destroying every kind of vegetation. Cereals were cut down as though with a sickle, aud in many instances driven into the earth by the hail. Houses were unroofed and stock killed. Adam Fritz, in Pilot Town ship, was struck by lightning and killed. Miss Kate Shannon, in Essex Township, was seriously prostrated by lightning. At Dixon, 111., the storm was very destructive. Great damage has been done to crops of all kinds, especially fruit, which will be a complete failure. Various buildings were blown down, through out the country. Gen. Crook has received ordors from division headquarters at Chi cago, to send the Ninth infantry, stationed in the department of the Platte, to the department of Arizona, not later tnan the 20th inst.

Brhl r Omaha lost week was rapidly on gaged iu putting down the cedar block pavement on Farnam street and intend putting dowu a large amount of it in the city. Tbe blocks of cedar used are six inches long and not smaller than four or larger than eight inches in diameter are placed in a bed of concrete are filled with sand aud tbe bed is thus made perfectly tight, then a thin coat of tar is spread over the whole to give it solidity and strength. John Warner, who hired a ball bedroom in New York about two months ago for himself and son, was found the other morning in his bed dead, and his son shot through tbe temple. It was evident that the father shot tbe son and then shot himself. They were comparatively strangers, and no particulars known about them. Isaac I. Webster, first lieutenant irit artillery, U. S. A., stationed at Black Point Praideo, Cal., died sud denly on the ih inst. Lieut. Web ster was appointed to the military academy irom Nebraska io 1961, and gradaated in 1865.

A bold but unsuccessful attempt was made tho other night to wreck the Union Pacific's Grand Island passenger train near Clarke, by-placing a car coupling-pin on the track at a switch-frog, and, had not the train been brought to a sudden stand still, it would have been ditched, and many of the ninety passengers aboard might have been killed. The wicked person who fastened the ob struction, may yet be detected and meet with due punishment. The Republican partv should at tract to its ticket all good men of all parties. It should let by-gones rest in their quiet graves and from this time on be earnest.and progressive in the interests of the people. It should nominate for its standard bearers, men who will honor the party by their ability and integrity as men and office holders. Wahoo Independent. The Knights of Pythias conclave was formally inaugurated one day last week at Toronto, Ont., by a grand street parade. There were three thousand uniformed Knights in line.

The board convened at 9 o'clock a. m. with Supervisor North in the chair. Boll called aud all present but Doody, Klernan. North, Olson of Walker, Olson of Creston and Schure. The special committee on unlicensed saloons presented the following opinion from the coun ty attorney: To the County Board: One Beinhold Brandt has established and now conducts a Sunday beer garden within the connty and convenient and comfortably adjacent to the corporate limits of the city of Columbus. He makes public avowal, and gives strong assurance of his purpose to continue the business indefinitely. In other words he has deliberately violated the criminal law ofthe State and proposes to con tinue in its violation. The duty and measure of power of your body in the premises, is the ques tion on which I understand my opinion is desired. The County Board is a creature of the Statute. It must discharge such duties, and it possesses and can exercise such powers only as the statute expresslv gives, or such as are plainly incidental thereto. The question under consideration relates to the enforcement of the penal statute, and this case,so as far tbe powers and du ties of the Board are concerned, cannot and does not differ from any other that might arise under the criminal coda. The enforcement of the criminal law by tbe institution and prosecution of criminal actions is nowhere either di rectly or by implication imposed as a duty upon the County Board. The power to institute and prosecute oruinary criminal actions is nowhere ex pressly or by just construction conferred upon the County Board, and therefore does not exist. The Board has power to employ an attorney, but not for tbe purpose of aiding it in eyery wild scheme of reform in which it might choose to embark. The power can only be exercised when the Board is acting within the sphere of its delegated authority. It would, in a legal sense, be a misappropriation of public funds to pay an attorney for doing that which the Board has no authority to employ him to do. This in my judg. ment is the cold law applicable to the question submitted to me. However, considering the peculiar character of this case, the public ignominy it entail, and the languid interests taken in the matter by the authorities at whose threshold the business is conducted, its suppression by the action of the County Board would be, perhaps, a venial usurpation more honored than condemned. Tbe employment of coun sel for that purpose would not be with ou t precedent in this county. Respectfully submitted J. J. Sullivan, Co. Att'y. Motion by Supr. Newman, that opiu inion of County Attorney be accepted. Carried. Motion by Supr. Truman that the County Attorney be directed, in accord ance with his opinion to proceed and prosecute Beinhold Brandt.

Clark, a member of tbe South Georgia Methodist Conference, writes from Tatnall county, Ga.: "One year ago I was taken with rheumatism, and became almost helpless tor over three mouths. All tbe remedies used seemed to fail until I commenced tho use of Swift's Specific. I bavo taken five bottles, and am perfectly sound and well again. I would have writteu sooner, but waited to aeo if tbe cure was permanent. And now I unhesi tatingly recommend S. S. S. as a Bafe and reliable remedy for rheumatism. I have all confidence in its virtue." It Never Fall. I have had blood poison ever since October, 1885, and obtained no relief from any treatment (and I tried several) until I commenced taking Swift's Specific. In one mouth I felt as well as I ever bad.
