The hay in Nebraska this year
promises to be an immense crop, but we
think that every pound of it will find
ready sale at fair prices, with a strong
probability of good prices next spring,
as usual. It must be remembered that
Nebraska is more and more each year, a
feeding ground for other states, besides
a large lot of baled hay goes east from
here. In order that there may be more
hay for sale, a great many Nebraska
farmers will this year cut their corn for
fodder, especially where they can secure
1 the extra help necessary to do this.

The old reliable Columbus State

holders held August 1st increased their
capital stock to one hundred thousand

they need help. Such a bank as this is
truly a benefit to the community in
which it is located.
Among the High School young men
who are making themselves useful we
last week failed to include Clarence
Sheldon, who has a position in the Com
mercial bank, which he is filling very
acceptably. There is nothing sits so
nicely on the shoulders of a young man
as enterprise, honest labor, which brings
not only a money reward, but also a
fuller, richer heritage of good character,
good habits and a fair name among men.
A week last Sunday there passed by
this place a man and family going down

The Passenger Department of the
Union Pacific, "The Overland Route,"
has issued a neat little pamphlet, pocket
size, entitled "National Platform Book,"
containing the democratic, republican
and prohibition platforms, together with
tho addresses of acceptance of Grover
Cleveland, Benjamin Harrison and Clin
ton B. Fisk; also tabulated tables show
ing the plurality vote, tho electoral vote
and an analysis of the vote as cast for
Cleveland and Blaine in 1884. This
book is just what is needed at this time
and should be in the hands of every
voter. It plainly sets forth what each
party has to offer and every reader can
draw his own comparisons. Sent to any
address on application. Address, J. S.
Tebbets, Gen'l Passenger Ag't, Union

The Platte Center Argus censures
the democratic central committee for
taking it upon themselves to select del
egates instead of calling a convention
for that purpose, and says:
"We are surprised to see that seven
men have taken it upon themselves to
elect delegates to the state and third
congressional conventions from Platte
county. There are a number of demo
crats that can not fully understand how
the county central committee could take
unto itself such powers. Will some
member of the committee explain this
part of their proceedings?
"The central committee might as well
have nominated the candidates for the
legislature and county attorney while
they were electing the delegations to the
state and congressional conventions. It
appears as if certain members of our
county central committee are courting
defeat."

on the evening of the 2d during which
several horses and cattle were killed by
the electric fluid while out in the pas
tures. Charley Wake and Fred Campbell,
the champion amateur battery of Ne
braska, went up to the north part of the
state last Saturday to help the Spring
view ball boys do up the Long Pine
club in retaliation for several well ad
ministered thrashings received at their
hands. Charley and Fred were palmed
off as hired help from a neighboring
ranch, but when, at the close of the
game, the tally stood 5 to 1 in favor of
Springview, the scales dropped from the
eyes of the Long Pine crowd, so to
speak, and they tumbled to the ranch
racket. In the best of humor, be it said
to their credit, the defeated club joked
our boys about their farming, and finally
presented them with a hoe and pitch
fork as "emblems of morality and work
ing tools of the profession." Genoa

wo learn that the train ran off the track

Quite an excitement was caused in
our vicinity lately by the finding of ob

they put them all on in tho daytime.

Thursday evening took a romp through
the fields, putting grain shocks to flight,

chief to hay and grain stacks, not even
forgetting to scatter the shocks over
again.

havo tho heartfelt sympathy of all in their sad
bereavement. In tho grave they have laid one
that was very near and dear to them. We can
turn our eyes to that bright land which they in
habit. This is no delusion. That land exists
and little Robio is there mingling his with other
angelic voice in strains of music which seem to
be carried to us on tho air.
Thy life's brief day is passed anil gone.
Never shall winter, stern and dread.
Nor fervid heat of summer sun
Disturb thy lonely, quiet bed.
Freed from all tho ills of life.
No heavy sins to lie forgiven.
Rest, thou, from thy mortal strife.
Frail child of earth, high heir of heaven.
