We notice some of our exchanges are at
tempting to poke fun at Columbus, on account
of the projKised street car line. The trouble
comes in right here: Columbus posesses just a
little more enterprise than those cities whose sole
business it is to hurl their slurs at her. Misery
is a great lover of company.
The Leigh Advocate is very correct
Columbus was never in better shape
than she is at present Her business
men are solid and prosperous; her pub
lic interests are being looked after with
a unanimity of sentiment that is making
everything; in the way of public enter
prises, there is not one possessed by
any city in Nebraska, (outside of Om
aha and Lincoln), that Columbus
does not have, and now is to be added
the street car line. Articles of incorpo
ration for this enterprise were filed some
time since, the right of way granted by
our citizens, giving until September 1st,
1888 to operate one mile of tho road.
Only a few days have elapsed, and all
the stock has been subscribed, the books
closed, and the stockholders declare
that the road will be constructed and
operated at once. The difference lnjtween
Columbus and somo of these towns that
traduce her is that Columbus acts in
stead of talks, while her traducers re
verse that good method and talk instead
of acting, and many of them are con
tent to let it be all talk for themselves
and talk against other places. When
ever a man or a community is continu
ally belittling another, speaking slight
ingly of every good thing done or at
tempted, to tho unprejudiced observer
it is proof positive of envy. Columbus
is satisfied to go along on the road she
marked out long ago, one step at a time
and that step sure; envious of no other
community's welfare, glad of her own;
in readiness to adopt any measure that
the needs of the times demand or that
will add to the business, to the comfort
or to the safety of the city. The Advo
cate is correct, and the enterprise that
counts in these times is that which
does the rcork, without boasting, and
emulates the worthy deed, wherever or
by whomsoever done.

Death to Prairie Dojrs!
Editor Journal, Columbus Neb.
Dear Sir: It was my fortune in pur
chasing land here in Platte county to
have a few prairie dogs thrown in, as a
nuisance, and it has ever since been my
wish to get rid of them. I tried various
kinds of poison, shooting, drowning, etc..
but nil failed until quite recently I
learned that Bi' Sulphide of Carbon
would destroy them. It is a liquid, can
be purchased at the drug stores at a
cost of from 10 to 15 cents a pound by
the quantity. I bought from three dif
ferent parties; the best and cheapest I
got from Edward B, Taylor of Cleve
land, Ohio. It is sure death to prairie
dogs, gophers, squirrels, etc Mode of
applying it: take a piece of cotton the
6ize of a hen egp, saturate it with about
J an ounce of the Bi Sulphide of Car
bon, throw it into the hole of the animal,
cover the top of hole with ground, so
that the cotton is loose in the hole. A
gas is formed, and the dogs are killed.
I have destroyed my dogs on about 80
acres at a cost of 830.00, and increased
the value of the land 8500.00, One
ponnd will do for 25 holes.
This medicine is quickly applied and
6 sure death. No humbug about it
Very respectfully thy friend,
Isaiah Liqhtneb,
Matson, Platte county, Neb.

Quite a number of Columbus' well

very enjoyably; it was a sort of a sur

Schroeder, Brodfuehrer and others.
Chinch bn's are again appealing in

wo soon get rain the wheat crop in this
vicinity will be an entire failure; fields,
where a few days ago no bugs wero to
be seen now contain yellow spots show
ing that the bugs are tit work in them.
Since we wrote the above tho rain has
come and made, the hearts of the farm

and followed by such a hot sun, in a few
days its effects will not bo apparent.

Save the Baby.
Many young btibies have eruptions
and sore throat, sometimes baffling tho
most skillful physicians. Frequently
children suffer from some inherited
malady, and only tho radical treatment
of an absolute and powerful blood puri
fier can effect a cure; again the ailment
may lie from contagion. At any rate,
the safest plan is to at once eradicate all
poison from the blood, no matter what
the cause. So wisely did Mr. C. C. Key,
one of the most cultured men and in
telligent farmers of Alcora connty, Miss.
Ho writes the following pointed testi
mony of his experience:
Corinth, Miss., Feb. 10, 1887.
Gentlemen Last November my baby,
not then a year old, had a bad breaking
out on bis hands and body, accompanied
by a very sore throat. I gave him some
S. S. S., which I happened to have.
When the family physician came, and
learned what I was giving the child, ho
told me to continue it, as it was tho best
thing tho baby could take. Tho doctor
proved wise, for in a short while tho
eruption disappeared, and the throat got
completely well.
