During the severe storm recently
the residence of Andrew Petersen and

and their losses were promptly paid in

the purpose of selecting delegates to the
state, congressional, senatorial and rep
resentative conventions, and also to nom

fore the convention.
- Next week we will give the com
plete record of tho bridgo location, that
is, tho engineer's report and the county
attorney's opinion. We had intended to
do so this week but found them too
lengthy for our limited space Monday.
There is no present probability of a
change, but the Journal is desirous of
keeping a complete record.
Ground has been broke for tho new
brick hotel, corner of North and Thir
teenth streets, and directly north of the
new brick Commercial bank building,
now in process of erection. The new
hotel is to be first-class in every par
ticular known to modern hotel build
ing. At this writing tho plans have
not been fully completed. So soon as
they are we will give our readers a full
account.
Received of the Home Fire Insur
ance Company of Omaha, Nebraska,
through P. W. Henrich, its agent for
Platte county, the sum of one hundred
and twenty-fire dollars in full payment
of tho damage by wind storm to my barn
June 12th, 1888, and I recommend the
Henrich agency to all wanting reliable
insurance at living rates. Didrich
Hollmann, Boheet, Platte countv, Ne
braska, June 22, 18S8.
It has come to my knowledge that
certain persons are reporting that I
started tho report that "the Minneapolis
Harvester Works are busted." I want
to say right here, that these men have
manufactured this Ho out of whole cloth;
perhaps a guilty conscience has prompt
ed them to do so. I do not have to do
so, as every intelligent farmer can see
the advantage the Empire has over all
other Binders. H. Lubker. 22-2t
Mr. Painter, a member of the town
council at Lindsay, is reported as having
been cut and stabbed by men who at the
time were engaged in a row in Adams's
saloon. Painter, hearing the noise, had
gone in to try to restore quiet. Tho
Argus is authority for saying that the
men had him down and might have killed
him, if it had not been for the timely
interference of Mrs. Adams, the saloon
keeper's wife. "She came in and cleaned
out the entire saloon."
- Last Thursday morning Louis
Dahmau and Scott Gardner were en
gaged with jack screws in getting on to
the track at the B. & M. depot, a car
that had been derailed. Dahman was
on the side next the depot platform, he
was caught and pinched, his shoulder
being dislocated and the muscles mang
led, and the collar bono broken from the
breast bone. Drs. Martyn & Schug
were called to look after the injured
man, and on Monday he was reported as
doing as well as could be expected.
Dahman is a young married man, not
long a resident of this city.
The Blair Factory is putting on tho
market a good line of goods. The insti
tution is flourishing, making money for
its proprietors, bringing the town into
good repnte, and we could hope making
other places just a little bit jealous of
the enterprise and ambition that gave
Blair such an institution. From a ro
cent number of tho Pilot wo clip a par
graph: "The canning factory is running
in full blast now putting up peas. The
new machine for shelling peas is said to
be a daisy, with a capacity of shelling
1,000 bushels a day, and doing the work
well. It cost S2,500, and it is said will save
its cost this year, doing for less than
S100 what it would cost more than S2,000
to do by hand. The company will erect
another building 35x132 at once.
The city council held meetings Sat
urday and Monday evenings. The ap
propriation ordinance passed will be
found in today's Joubkaii. A resolution
was adopted requesting the U. P. R. R.
Co. to grade their track to conform with
the 6treet grade. A resolution was pass
ed directing the overseer of streets to
proceed at once and without delay to re
move any and all obstructions on Pine,
Cedar and Walnut streets being in Oida
and Capitol Square additions, also to
put a bridge across " Meridian Ditch."
The city clerk was directed to notify the
O. & R- V. R- R. Co. to put in proper
crossings on the lino of their road where
it crosses the above named streets. The
city engineer was directed to make sur
vey and properly 6take said streets.
Thanks to Rev. A. Henrich for a
copy of " Laura." The copy is in Ger
man and as yet we are not able to read
all of it. A very estimable lady of our
acquaintance avers that she is
in the' habit of skipping the
philosophical portions of a story, and is
always especially attracted to the con
rersational paragraphs. According to
the outward appearance of these Ger
man letters, it would seem that our
good friend, the Dr., has thoroughly in
termingled his philosophy and his facts,
so as to make the story interesting
throughout. We are almost inclined to
study German, so that we may be able
to read this story in the original. We
notice towards the last and this we can
understand: "Sie sind zufrieden und
glucklich ," and if there is any suggestion
that will probably bring a like result to
all, we should all read the book.

Harvey Kirliey.
Harvey Richey, son of the late Thos.
Richey, died at the residence of his
mother, in Cadiz, on Tuesday evening,
July 3d, aged about thirty-eight years,
of consumption. He was a young man
of most lovable character, loved by all
who knew him. Honorable and upright,
and in all respects what a young man
ought to be. The ending of such a life
so early is one of the saddest problems
we meet. Cadiz, (O.) Sentinel.
Harvey Richey died at the home of
his mother, at this place, on Tuesday
night, July 3d, after a long illness, of
consumption. He was a printer by trade,
and had worked in lioth the printing of
fices of this place, as well as in various
other towns and cities throughout the
country. Harvey was a splendid fellow,
genial and companionable, and liked by
everybody who knew him. He made a
long and brave struggle against disease,
bnt had to yield at last to the inevitable.
He was good-hearted and true, spent
his entire life for the welfare of loved
ones, and by them will be held in kind
est remembrance. He has gone to his
reward in a home where there is no more
sickness. Cadiz Republican.
Eighteen years ago Harvey came from
Ohio to take a position on the Journal
which he held for two years. While
here he acquired title to a piece of land
on Shell Creek, which he held a number
of years. He will be romembered by
some of tho older citizens as a very
genial young man, attending strictly to
his own affairs, and, so long as strength
remained, ready for duty. Afflicted
with an incurable disease, he realized
that his death therefrom was but a
question of time (and likely not to. be
long delayed), his struggle was manly,
and his life devoted to his widowed
mother. His memory will ever be kind
ly cherished by all who knew him.
The crowd on Thirteenth street and
in Franklin Squaro on the Fourth was
the largest in the history of Columbus.
Young America will long remember the
the Fourth of July of '88 in Columbus.
Tho program was carried out to the let
ter. Plug hats took a back seat during
tho foot ball game. The old horse pa
rade was a good one. The Columbus
martial band did splendidly. Fitzpat
rick's nine looked well in the parade,
and "knocked the spotB" off the Loup
Valley nine 6 to 13 in five innings. Mar
shal Huber's management of the parade
and games deserves credit. Jesse
Becher, as master of ceremonies, cannot
be beat. Clarence Sheldon read the
Declaration to over one thousand people
and did it well. Little Minnie Becker's
declamation was exceedingly well ren
dered. Willie Coolidge deserves great
credit; he is a good speaker. Byron
Millett's presentation speech to the boys
was appreciated by their parents. The
vote of thanks to E. D. Fitzpatrick, Dr.
Stillman and S. L. Downing was receiv
ed with loud cheers. The awards were:
slow horse race Johnnie Huber, pig race
Chas. Jones, foot ball West End school,
race of 15 years old boys H. Keating,
race of 11 years old boys James Graves,
frog race Geo. Drennin, sack race Fred
Blaser, flag race Fred Novel, greased

Brag and bluster are not good
foundation stones for a newspaper es
tablishment. It is with that like every
thing else there is a certain amcant of
solid, steady, hearty attention to the es
sential work of the business to be done,
(not talked about, not always going to
be), that is indeepensabla There are a
very few people who may be temporarily
misled by brag and bluster, fuss and
feathers, but they are the kind who are
not desirable as patrons, year after year.
No newspaper can well afford, either,
to be the mouth-piece of special inter
ests and cliques as opposed to the gen
eral good of a community. If there is
any institution that should guard a com
munity against the approach of dangers,
it is a newspaper, and without this fac
ulty in active operation, the local news
paper dwindles to a sheet for the ex
change of gossip.
A WHITE FLOWER.
With deep sympathy these lines are fraternally
inscribed to J. U. Higgins and family in their
recent tiereavement:
Child of the Summer-Land
Lent for a day
Sfar of tho morning hills
Whither away?
l'ale as a lily leaf
Born on the ware.
Lift her with loving hands
Down to her grate.
Frail as a drooping gem
Blown with a breath,
Hiieed on thy ether wing
Blossom of death;
White gleams thy little boat
Out o'er the sea
Lead us with little hands
Resting with thee.
Shining the golden hair
Touched with a mint
Lovelier than flowers are
Cheeks we have kissed.
Hwoet as a dewy rose.
Fairer than dreams.
Gone to the Hi lent Land
Light of its titreams.
Only to follow her
Holding her hand
Oh! but to learn of her
Higher commands.
Spirit of snmmer morns
Bears thee away
New songs are waiting the
Child of a day.
(flowing is heav'n's wall,
Waving with bloom
Beaching the grieving hearts,
Cov'ring the tomb.
Oh! but to follow her
(iath'ring the sheaves.
Deep wisdom learn of her
Mornings and eves.
Bright was our dream of thee
Dream that is flown
Nearer is heav'n today
Uhelt'ring our own.
Hweet sliall thy welcome be.
Spirit of flow'rs.
Home to that summer sea
Angel of ours.
Thou, on the starry wate
Death's mjwt'ry riien.
Peace rocks our moaning sleep
Herald of heaven.
Sing low one chanting song
lef t to the years,
Lightly one blooming leaf
Laid on our tears.
Mary B. Finch.

"Wheat is bringing 60 cents per
bushel in Columbus and 65 in Schuyler.
This place has been for a number of
years the best wheat market in central
Nebraska" The above is from the
Schuyler Herald of the Fourth of July.
On that day 58 cents was being paid for
wheat here, and our dealers inform us
that precisely the same figure was paid
by Schuyler. Colnmbns has two, very
excellent flour mills that use a large
quantity of wheat; there is no combina
tion between them to bear prices down;
they buy on the market, and their cash
is as good as Schuyler's. The Journal
challenges, not a comparison of news
paper brag and blow, but a comparison
of the record of prices paid at Schuyler
and Columbus. We feel confident that
Columbus will be found most favorable
to the farmer.
The Animal County Teachers' Institute
Will be held this year at the High
School building, beginning on the 13th
day of August, and continuing two
weeks. Experienced conductors will be
present during the session, and all sub

receive special attention. The new
course of study for the country schools
and the manner of operating the same
will be explained, so that all teachers
may know what is expected of them.
An examination for certificates will be
held at the close of the institute. Even
ing entertainments of an educational
character will be held during the ses
sion. All teachers of the county are ex
pected to be present.

The way to have no tramps is to com
pel all able-bodied persons who "tramp"
to work for the public for their board.
Thus cities and towns will be benefited,
the tramps themselves will be very much
benefited (albeit against their will), in
realizing the fact that justice requires
every man to do his Bhare in the work
of the world, and possibly with a little
taste of enforced industry they may fall
in love with a busy life and, through hope
of improvement, become something other
than tramps. Anyhow, if they under
stand that a town will work them, they
will "not work the town."

Corn is growing fine now.
Small grain is headed out and will

gave a picnic to their young friends in
this neighborhood. It was quite a large
gathering and everybody enjoyed them
selves very much. Mr. Jenni and his
family do nothing by halvos; anyone who
pays them a visit on his well-managed
little farm will soon be convinced of it.
As this intonse hot weather has dried
