question was as to jurisdiction, that the
assignee had no-greater right than the
original holder, and that suit must le
brought in the proper state court,

Aaron Cue, Saturday, circulated a
petition among the citizens, addressed
to Union Pacific headquarters, to be re
stored to his former pay as flagman at
the Olive street crossing, $40. The
last month he got $25. In the
winter of "86 while shoveling snow for
D. Anderson, the U. P. snow plow struck
him, disabling him and, in consequence,
the fingers of both hands were amputat
ed. He has a family of wife and five
children to support, and no man that we
have heard of refused to sign the peti
tion. Albert Luth as secretary has issued
a call for the connty prohibition conven
tion to be held at the Court Honse, in
this city, Wednesday, Feb. 8, to elect
delegates to the state convention, and
for the transaction of any other busi
ness properly before the convention.
Everybody is invited to attend. Says
the secretary, "We believe in woman
suffrage and therefore invite the ladies.
xeuuw-viiiiens, iet us not license an
evil that is liable at any time to ensnare
and destroy our sons and daughters, but
let us put it away."
One of the greatest levers of pro
gress is emulation a man desires to be
even with or a little ahead of his neigh
bors; a business man likes to have a
little the better of his competitor in
goods and prices or methods of doing
business; the pupil at school is urged to
excel his fellow; any community wishes
to be at the front along with its neigh
bor, or just a little ahead in everything
that goes to make the prosperity of a
town or city. Emulation should take
the place of envy, and time wasted in
talking about what others ought to do,
would help along your own cause.
The teachers of our county are to be
congratulated on the fact that no loss of
life occurred among the children during
the storm on the 12th ult As the dis
mal details continue to come in of
suffering and loss of life on that fateful
afternoon, we are impressed with the
fact that our teachers exercised a degree
of judgment and care that reflects great
credit on them. This storm is not with
out its lessons. One of the most im
portant is to our school directors, that
they should make it a point of con
science to have their school houses well
banked and otherwise properly protect
ed, and above all that a good supply of
fuel be kept on hand during the cold
weather. Ii any of our teachers or pu
pils, or others, desire to contribute sub
stantially to the relief of our neighbors,
less fortunate than ourselves, such con
tributions may be sent to Sup't Cramer,
who will see that they are properly for
warded to pie destination named.

Julius Ernst was in town Monday.
He had passed Sunday night with se
vere rheumatic pains as a companion,
and was very weary of that kind of life.
Co. Supt, Prof. L. J. Cramer, was at
his office in the Court House Saturday
and busily engaged with the duties of
his important charge. Much is expect
ed of him, as the head of the system of
schools in the county, and we believe
that the public will not be disappointed.
Good school work depends, mainly, upon
the securing of good teachers for each
school in the county; in this object, the
superintendent should be assisted by
school boards and patrons. An en
thusiasm for the business of teaching,
added to ability to teach and to infuse
into pupils a desire for learning, are some
of the qualities of a good teacher, and
choice of teachers should be made with ref
erence to the results to be accomplished.
The superintendent tells us that quite a
number of teachers are taking an inter
est in the exhibit of school work that is
to be made at the meeting of the State
Teachers' Association at Fremont. Writ
ten work by pupils, which has become a
very important element of work in our
city schools, is receiving more attention
in the country districts, and Platte
county is expected to furnish for the ex
hibition at Fremont a line of unexcelled
written work. The policy inaugurated
by Supt Tedrow of issuing diplomas to
graduates of country schools will be
continued by Supt. Cramer. It is hoped
to make an arrangement whereby gradu
ates of any of the public schools of
Platte county may thereupon enter the
University at Lincoln. This is a measure
in every way commendable, because the
University is the highest institution of
learning in the state and stands at the
head of our public school system.

The Lincoln board of trade has been
in communication with a steel bnrb wire
factory of Cedar Falls, a company which
is looking for a location for a branch
factory and propose to commence opera
tions with a plant that will turn ont a
car load of wire daily; the Decorah, (la.)
Paper Mill Co. aro also in correspond
ence concerning the transferring of their
factory to Lincoln; the Beading Lock
Manufacturing Co., of Beading, Pa., and
parties from Paris, Ontario, regarding
the establishment of a woolen mill.
These matters have all been presented
to the Lincoln board of trade and the
general opinion is that every one of them
is practical and that a strong effort
should be made to secure them. There
is absolutely no reason that we can think
of why either one of these establish
ments should not do just as well here
as at Lincoln.

A Famous Doctor
Once said that the secret of good health
consisted in keeping the head cool, the
feet warm, aud the bowels open. Had
this eminent physician lived in our day,
and known the merits of Acer's P11U
at an aperient, he would certainly have
recommended them, as so many of his
distinguished successors are doing.
The celebrated Dr. Farnsworth, of
Norwich, Conn., recommends Ayer's
Fill as the best of all remedies for
" Intermittent Fevers."
Dr. I. E. Fowler, of Bridgeport.
Conn., says: "Ayer's Pills are highly
and universally spoken of by the peoplo
about here. I make daily use of them
in my practice."
Dr. May hew, of New Bedford, Mass.,
says : " Having prescribed many thou
sands of Ayer's Pills, in my practice, I
can unhesitatingly pronounce them the
best cathartic in use."
The Massachusetts State Assayer, Dr.
A. A. Hayes, certifies : " I have made a
careful analysis of Ayer's Pills. They
contain the active principles of well
known drugs, isolated from inert mat
ter, which plan is, chemically speaking,
of great importance to their usefulness.
It insures activity, certainty, and uni
formity of effect. Ayer's Pills contain
no metallic or mineral substance, but
the virtues of vegetable remedies in
skillful combination."
