A Cheyenne county man captured a black prairie dog. Fires are being reported occasion ally from Bteam pipes being too close to wood. Cleveland's course on civil service matters is not satisfactory to the democracy. THE'Wahoo Wasp thinks we will soon need 21 columns to print all tbo "Suggestions to Legislators." It is stated that seventy miles of the Cheyenne & Northwestern road will be completed before Christmas. The Knights of Labor are attract ing the attentions of politicians who are studying affairs with reference to 1888. Seward county adopted township organization at the last election, and her representatives will doubtless be ready to help amend the laws. The Newburg woolen mills, N. Y., burned the other moruing. One hundred and thirty persons were thrown out of employment. Proper ty loss $100,000. J. F. Stan key sold bis Calhoun farm to Peter O'Rourke for .$4,000 Flo bought a tract of laud out in Platte county, where he now resides. Blnir Pilot. Pkesihent Ci.kvjci.ani has ap pointed TboinaH F.

It is believed that they are commuting moat of the petty thctls reported to the police. The vote tor congressman in the lirst Nebraska district was divided in this mannerChurch Howe lG.ITW; CS. E. Bigclow 2.S07; John A. Mc Shane 2:1,394; McShane's majority over Howe 7,021 ; McShaue over all 4.154. A large black eagle was presented the other day to George Newer, of Grafton, to stuff. It was over seven feet from tip to tip. Near Fairmouut this bird haB been carrying away chickens, young pigs, etc., for some time past. It is now given forth that Laird is a candidate for U. S. senator to succeed Van "Wyck, and it is said that the members in the next legislature from the Second congressional dis trict are pretty unanimous for Laird, however otherwise they may seem to be. The steamer Bernard Castle, iu the coal trade between Puget Sound and San Francisco, ran on the rocks at Race Rock Liht and stove a large hole in her bottom. She was beach ed aud proved a total loss. The crow was saved. Loss of property $100, 000. Aliuos's waterworks have fur nished no water a la Fremont's well. They would take water from a neigh boring stream except that au oc casional dead hog thrown into the creek is thought to detract from the quality of the water. Fremont Tribune. Prisoners confined in the city jail at Lincoln retused to do manual labor. They were furnished with balls and chains and put on bread and water, awaitiug the time when they may change their minds. Two, who did not join the strike, were given extra good hot dinner for the moral effect it would have on the others. A dffkct has been discovered in the construction of the liarlholdl etattie. There is no way by which a long icicle cxn be removed from the Goddess of Liberty's nose except by shooting it off with a rifle ball. If the statue stood iu the Platte river the gooee hunters would see that the Goddesri' nope was kept clean. Crete Globe. Hon. Ciiari.es Francis Adams, sr., died at his residence in Boston at 8:40 a. m. Nov. 21. He had buffered for five years past from brain 5 rouble, arising from overtaxing his brain in the literary work upon which he whb engaged. He was the third son of John Q'lincy Adwi, aud was horn in Boston. Aug. ('., 1S07. "Wednesday of list week, it is said, 10,000 hogs were received at the Omaha stock yard". That is won derful compared with five years ago, but as compared with what it promises to be five years hence, a small number. There is not a particle of reason to doubt Omaha's future, even without the discovery of a seven-feet vein of good coal, as they now claim. Another railroad is proposed to be constructed from Wichita. Kan., through the couulioa of Harvey, Re no, Rice, Ellsworth, Lincoln, Mitcn ell and Jewell in Kansas to a point on the Burlington & Missouri River road in Nebraska at Red Cloud. The estimate d length is $200 miles. The capital stock is $5,000,000. The incorporators all reside at Wichita, Kas. Men differ radically, and this happens as much upon their estimate of their fellow men as upon anything else. The Papillion 'Times, for in stance, in speaking of the senatorial succession, gives this opinion . "Thayer mve he won't accept an election as United States senator. His record don't give us a chance to place much confidence in his declin ation. "When did the genial governor-elect ever refuse any political plnsn that grew within hirreach Y' I SSBCstIeHn t eL?r;llatr. From all sources, we wish to give, uuucr iuis ueou, tvtiav no iu umirei that may bo of interest to represen tatives and senators elect, and of pos sible benefit to the people of Ne braska. We ask private citizens who have suggestions of amendment to our laws, attorneys who 6ee where justice might be better secured, county officials who realize wherein statutes can be bettered, to 6end us what they have to say. Ed. Jour nal. The editor of the Fremont Herald has been making a personal inves tigation of the workings of township organization in Washington county, and comes to the conclusion, "after a liberal inquiry among those who would be most likely to be informed, that the system has beeu generally satisfactory, and in most respects more efficient and economical, iu the conducting of the county affairs. Especially is this true of bridges and roads. A supervisor in each town ship, whose special duty it is to look after the roads and bridges in each eeparate township is better calculated to ensure their being kept in repair than where this duty is divided among two or three men for the county a large. On bridges whose cost exceeds $200 the work is done out of the common fund of the county, but on amounts less than that each precinct attends to and builds its own bridges." He speaks of the method of collecting taxes, under the law, and says it has been abandoned, aud the collection made by the county treasurer, as of old. Some level-headed senator or rep resentative elect should take this subject in hand and put together a good township law that will stand the te-.t oJ practice; get it up for work and not to make the syetem odiou?, and the people of Nebraska will be delighted with it, aud thank the man who sees to carrying it through Journal. the legislature. Ed. One of the important questions uppermost now in practical state polities is whether or not "overuor elect Thayer is ambitious to bo elected U. S. Senator. The Grand Island Independent pooh-poohs at the notion, while the Grand Island Thnes thinks il the correct thing. Whether either of these journals knows how the General himself views tho matter is questionable. Thorc are those who have honors '-thrust npon,"them in a way, and when the time comes, if the opportunity should offer, and a caucus be willing, Gen. Thayer could not very con sistently stand out. "We imagine that Laird or Thayer will be Van Wyck'a chief opponent. The funeral of Chester A. Arthur took place from his late residence in New York City, on the morning of Nov. 22d, 78G, and the services in all particulars were impressive in their simplicity. President Cleveland and his cabinet members, senate com mittee. Gov. Hill, Judge Miller and hundreds of others. Present at the church were James G. Blaine, John A. Logan, Gen. B. F. Butler, Rev. Henry W. Becher, C. M. De Pew, Senator Evarts, John Jacob Astor, Gen. Schofield and staff, Senator Johu Sherman and ex-President R. B. Hays. Platte CoHBty'n Representative. In the Lincoln correspondence of the Omaha Herald, under date of Nv. 19th, appears the following statement : "The candidates who have come to the front so far for the position of speaker of tho house are Capt. A. V. Cole, of Juniata, D. P. Newcomer, of Webster county, G. G. Bowman, of Platte county, N. V. Harlan, of York county, and W. G. Whitmore of Douglas couuty. The first three of these are anti-Van "Wyck republicans, and the last two are Van "Wyck men." How it happens that Mr. Bowman is classified as au anti-Van "Wyck republican, we cannot &ec. Tho Re publican couuty convention which nominated him pledged the can didates to support Van Wyck, and it is not to be presumed that Mr. Bow man will do otherwise. Late reports have revealed the strange fact that in Kansas the mas culine portion of the population is becoming fearfully unhealthy. Wo men have always been regarded as the weaker vessel, but it is not so in Kansas. A record of oue prominent drug store shows the alarming fact thai four hundred and eighty men during one month were afflicted with diseases which required the use of alcohol, while only ten women during that time were sufferers. A Uriel quarantine should be or dered against that disease-stricken people at once, for if such au epidem ic, or whatever it is, is not speedily arrested, it will soon fill the world with widows and make wars impos sible. Genoa Leader. Citizens of Lincoln have recently gene to work in earnest to secure a site and location for the Methodist University at that city. It is be lieved that a site for the University and $100,000 building fund will secure the location at that place. We regret that the University could not be located at a more central part of the state, but wo have not the power to present that argument in such a manner as to weigh down the in fluence of a site and $100,000 of a building fund. Rev. Dr. William M. Grimes died at Steubenville, Ohio, Nov. 23 '8G, at a quarter past five o'clock a. m., after a brief illness, from obstruction in the gall duct. Dr. Grimes was a good fend useful man, and those who formed his acquaintance during his nineteen or tiveuty years iu the min istry at Cadiz, O, while they live will remember his life and services with that people. The Thayer senatorial movement is just beginning to lift its head. It wasn't quite due. but now will do as well as later. Omaha Repblican. The "Thayer senatorial moTemeBt" has not the sanction of Gen. Thayer, and he authorizes as U state that he is not and will not be a candidate Neither will he interfere as between candidates. So far as the General is concerned he is content with bis po sition of governor, and willing that the race for senator shall be a free-for-all for all candidates for that po sition. The Senator for this year of our Lord will hardly come from the north side of the Platte. Two years hence will be a more opportune time for a senatorial movement for a north-side man. G. I. Independent. Cfesri art Oaamlm. Quite a bit of sensational writing has been done over the coal-find at Omaha. The following from the Bee of Monday is probably the troth of the matter, so far as known : "Another hole is to be bored to test the width of the coal vein and a diamond drill will be used to remove a cone of the black mineral. Then we shall know positively how val uable the find really is. If the vein proves half as wide as now seems probable it will be a fortune. If it turns out to be seven feet, or six feet, il will be one of the richest in the west. Coal is there. Of that there is now no doubt. In a few weeks we shall know whether it is as abundant as all hope and as many believe." Herman Buckcnsderfeu, on Fri day of last week, at a point eighty miles below Ontario, Oregon, where ho was with a surveying party, w hile going into camp, and while unload ing a wagon a man named SimenBon accidentally discharged a rifle, the hall passing through Herman's body. Twenty-four hours later be was a corpse. His father is Chief Engineer of the Uniou Pacific road and was at the time ou a visit cast. Heruiiu was a promising engineer, and was a levclmau of a surveying party that left Omaha last August. Henry County (Ga.) Weekly (Dem.): "The grand old democratic party has beeu defeated by mug wump Cleveland's milk-and-cider policy. Get your sackcloth and ashes ready, aud let us go into pro foundest mourning over the folly of a president who has never had the good of his party at heart. He has proven himself a man of great back bone and less sense than any of his predecessors." It is said that $4,000,000 worth of potatoes are imported into the U. S. yearly. This is because tho great west cannot reach the great cities by cheap transportation. If the govern ment owned the railroads and were running them at nominal cost, as could readily be done, potatoes in New York, Philadelphia, etc., would be much cheaper, and the farmers and consumers everywhere would be very greatly benefitted. News Iftea. Erastus Brooks died at 8 o'clock on the morning of the 25th of Nov. at bis home on Staten Island. Another big bank is to be estab lished at Omaha to be known as the Union Stock Yards Bank of South Omaha. Late news frcin Constantinople reports severe shocks of earthquake were felt last week in Smyrna, Tcbesme and the island ot Chios. Great alarm prevailed last week at Rosario, on account of the spread of the cholera. There were seventy two new cases and fifty deaths re ported. Ed. Shannon, was sentenced the other day in the district court at Nebraska City for robbery and sent to tho penitentiary for three years at hard labor. Mr8. Joseph Hazeltink was lost in the storm near Sanborn, Dak., during the night and when fouud was so badly frozen that her recov ery is doubtful. The widow of the famous Con federate General Pickett, who led the charge at tho battle of Gettysburg, has been appointed to a clerkship In the Interior Department at Wash ington. Two children named Meisal were frozen to death in the storm while looking for lost stock, ten miles north of Mandao, Dak. Two young men, brothers named Sims, were frozen to death in the storm while returning from work. The depth reached at the salt works at Lincoln last week was 1160 feet, but no coal yet. It is said that formatious exactly similar to those fouud above the Omaha coal find are now being passed at Lincoln. Fears were entertaiued last week that the schooner Owasco had gone dowu in Lake Erie with a crew of nine persons. She cleared the other day from Fairport, Ohio, with a car go of GOO tons of coal for Detroit. It is stated that the Berlin police the other day seized 8,000 Socialist pamphlets. They found that 7,000 bad already been distributed. Five workmen who were employed to circulate the pamphlets have been expelled from the city. An officer with a warraut aud requisition from Kansas, arrived the other day and arrested L. H. Case, a farmer living near Norfolk, Neb., charged with forging a deed for 320 acres of land in Cherokee county, Kas., four years ago. The officer left with his prisouer. A young mau, while bunting in North Park, Col., attempted to set a bear trap and both bis bands were caught and were held fast. After a week of indescribable agony he thought to release himself by gnaw ing through bis wrists. He bled to death after be had gnawed off one hand. The wife of S. T. Bolz, of Lyon, Neb., disappeared from iter home. Her husband, as a matter of course, believes she leit under suspicious circumstances. John Shafeb, on trial in the dis trict court at Minden the other day foY the killing of Constable Smith on the 8th of Nov., was found guilty as charged and a sentence of death will follow. This is said to be the promptest capital offence trial and conviction in the history of the state. Anna Anderson and two or three other young girls at Omaha one day last week were foolishly engaged in flourishing two old revolvers fouud in their rooms, and while aiming them at each other one of the revolv ers was discharged, the bail passing through the bead of Miss Anna An derson, who lingered a short time when her spirit took its flight. Kuhne & Riddler8 store and post office at Silver Creek, Neb., was robbed about 3 o'clock one morniug of last week by blowing open the safe. $250 in money and postage stamps were stolen, also several registered letters, packages aud money orders of unknown value. The robbers were shot at and one supposed to be wounded, but all es caped. H. M. Hoxie, genera manager ol the Gould Southwestern system, died at 2:30 on the morning of Nov. 23, at his rooms in the Metropolitan Hotel, N. Y. For many years he had been a sufferer from kidney disease. The cause of his death was exhaus tion in consequence of au operation performed not long ago by remov ing stones from his bladder. His body was embalmed aud taken to Des Moiues, Iowa, for interment Mr. Hoxie has been an active, indus trious hard worker. He was a broth er of Hon. M. B. Hoxie ol Schuler. AlUlITWXAL LOCAL. ."t'ehoville. That's all right, Mr. Steuger, we will lake a cigar. We are not exactly pleased with tho "beautiliil rnow." Quite a number of cattle have died here lately, apparently from the effects of eating corn stalks. Louis Sanders, the youug man who was hurt at Jenny Bros' ham, is im proving much more rapidly than was expected. "We all wondered what was the cause of the peculiar look ou the face of Mr. Adolph Miller last Friday, but now wc wonder no longer; it is a boy, aud he is doing well. Some talk in the neighborhood of scarlet fever. Two of Mr. Little man's children died of this dreaded disease last week, and several other children in the community are ill. John Miller, who got bis hand dis abled in a horse-power some time ago, has come back from his visit to Omaha. He has socured a good position iu Omaha, and will go there again soon, and may success attend his efforts. Our champion checker player, Sidney Payne, sprained his wrist so severely, that he is unable to work ; he is therefore on the hunt, tor com batants iu his favorite game. He can be seen any day, clad iu felt boots, and fur overcoat "going about like a roaring liou, seeking whom he may devour." H. Losekc, II. Johaunes, J. Brug ger aud others have lost more or less stock this tall. This disease has beeu gaining grouud during the last few years, and threatens to rival hog cholera in the mischief it causes to our taimers. There is considerable doubt as to the exact cause of the deaths, and we should like to hear some one give his views iu the columns of your valuable paper, with regard to the reason and the remedy. Last Saturday, a carpenter uauied Louis Sanders, working at the top of the bin barn at Jenny Bros' ranch, was observed by a fellow worntnau, to be iookiug ghastly pale. The latter asked Mr. Saunders what was tho matter; he replied that he was not feeling well. "You had belter go dowu then," was the remark. Mr. Saunders started down the ladder, but had gone only a few steps when be fell, striking his head and neck against a barrel as he struck the grouud. He was at once takeu into the house, and a doctor sent for. The young man is now iu a critical coudition, suffering from concussion of the brain. The dis tance fallen is said to have been about twenty feet. There seems to be something unlucky about this barn, as this is the third man who has been injured. in its construction. About two weeks ago two of the workmen were hurt by a falling timber, one being badly bruised, and the other having his leg broken. B. X. Shell Creek lie A kind of throat trouble prevails amoug the children, but it don't seem to be serious. The new town up Shell Creek is attracting some attention although thus far there is more of it on paper than on the ground. There is some talk of a family feud in the neighborhood, some en gaged iu propagating tilk about it might remember that "those living in glass houses ought not to throw stouee." The late storm has beeu a buster. Lots of farmers have lost pigs and some of them cattle, and alas for the corn after such a long and beautiful fall! Some "fellows" have al way- time enough. If the Indian summer should la-it till the first of April they woqld say : tomorrow I calcu late to (to at my corn if it don't storm ! But these fellows are always caught sooner or later.

The Columbus Democrat and the Platte Cen'er Ar'yits have a little quarrel telling each other that neither of them is any better than they ought to be. One "Worrik" gives it to oue "Davis" and vice versa. No wonder the great repub lican victories all over the country have ruffled their tempers not a little. Now Mr. Journal "divide aud rule !"
