To natronize home industries and

Although the meeting of the club for
last Saturday evening was called fori
I mainly the business of organizing, some
thing else was accomplished, and the
general -business of 'the campaign was
forwarded.
The meeting was presided .over by
Hon. W. A. McAllister, C. J.. Garlow,
Esq., acting as secretary. .
After the organization, speeches were
indulged inby Mr.Standisb;.and.H.T.
Spoerry.
Mr. Standiah was a-whig and voted
for Harrison in 1840. He now' is a re
publican and supports Harrison the;
grandson, for the same office. He very
modestly gave the third -party'advocateS
a lesson in practical .wisdom, and closed
by comparing the ' characters of the
presidential candidates, the. virtues of
the republican' standard bearers stand
ing out in bold relief.
Mr. Spoerry paid his respects to the
prohibitionists as a. political party, and
compared the records of the republican
and democratic parties, calling particu
lar attention to the condition of the treas
ury and of the country generally at the
close of Buchanan's democratic adminis
tration, when the republicans came in
to power, how. the treasury had been
emptied and the munitions of. war stol
en by the southern democrats, and bow;
under republicans the rebellion wasjrat
down, the government preserved, the
national credit preserved, etc In com
paring the two candidates he referred to
the fact that while Harrison, the repub
lican, had shouldered his musket and
served his country faithfully, Cleveland
had employed a substitute and allowed
him to die in a poor house.
G. W. Barnhart stated that he had
had a conversation with the state com
mittee and they had' promised to send
speakers to Platte county, naming Got.
Thayer, Attorney-General Leese, Gen.
Van Wyck, J. G. Tate and Patrick
Egan among the number.
The enjoyment of the evening was
made more complete by two excellent
campaign songs from the republican
glee-club, Mr. Morrison and daughters
and Geo. Whaley.
It is understood that the proffer of
the drum-corps will be very gladly ac
cepted by the club, their services having
been tendered free, after they are pro-,
vided with uniforms. .
The regular meetings of the .club
promise to be very interesting; the prac
tice of a former campaign here may
furnish a good suggestion. At every
meeting let two members of the club be
appointed to speak two weeks from
that date. We had, in that way, some
excellent addresses by all classes of
citizens, and much good political work
was done. The professional political
orator is apt to be abusive of the oppo
sition, while the average citizen is in
clined to act upon the method "come,
let us reason together."
A Yoathfal Adventurer.
Last week Sheriff Bloedorn, in re
sponse to a telegram, arrested a lad
eleven years old, who gave his name as
Johnson, said his parents had both died
throe weeks ago of diptheria, and that
he was on his road to Omaha, whither
bwas going on horseback. The boy
bee down and confessed the truth
hithe the sheriff told him enough to con
tion. ihim that he had got to the end of
tlon is,
His name was Wm. Walker; he had
taken $30 of his father's money, with
which he bought the horse, and he was
making a wrong start in the world for
himself. If he only will do so, he can
make the episode valuable as a lesson, a
warning to avoid the wrong in the fu
ture. A wise lad will, as much as pos
sible, profit by the sad experience of
others rather than be overcome of eviL
A very dark, threatening cloud
loomed up in the west Monday evening
about ten and began work as though a
huge coffee-mill were grinding ice.
There was a light fall of rain and hail at
the Bluffs north of the city, increasing
southward. At R. Young's the hail
stones were as large as walnuts; one of
them penetrated two thicknesses of
shingles and lodged between the sheet
ing boards; slats of the wind mill were
broken off and two ckickens killed. At
B. Ellis's the roof shingles were some
what splintered, window shutters split
up a little, corn blades split and water
melons pierced. In the city the stones
were large and made considerable rattle
on the roofs but did no damage to speak
of because they fell perpendicularly. If
the hail had been accompanied by a
strong wind, the destruction, no doubt,
would have been considerable.
Sunday evening next, Sept. 16th, at
8 o'clock, a number of the best speakers
among the most prosperous young
business men of Omaha will speak in
the Episcopal church, this city, on sub
jects pertaining to religion. It is really
a rare treat offered to the men of this
city, of which they should avail them
selves. All are most cordially invited
but more especially does the rector of
the church hope to see the young menof
the town turn out in goodly numbers.
Not one of the speakers will be a clergy
man. It is intended to be a meeting of
laymen addressing laymen, and the
happiest and brightest of Omaha's
business-men-speakers have been select
ed to do the talking.
The following is going the rounds
of the papers and is probably as good a
sample of wit as any from the recogniz
ed wits of the nation; it is said to be the
production of a school-boy at Kearney
and handed in as a composition to his
teacher: "The human body is made up
of the head, the thorax and the abdo
men. The head contains the brains,
when there is any. The thorax contains
the heart, lungs and diaf ram. The ab
domen contains the bowels, of which
there are five. A, E, L O, U, and some
times W and Y."
A teachers' meeting was held last
Saturday afternoon at the superintend
ent's room in the High School, at which
tbei-ubject of school work was .discuss
ed generally, grades and promotions
particularly. The.. schools start out
with very good prospects ahead; .the
Jou&KAi. hopes they will have fine sail
ing and a favorable voyage, striking no
breakers.

The following, from the Lindsay
Sentinel, is doing pretty well for a dem
ocratic newspaper: "J. G. Reeder, of the
nrm oi Sullivan & Reeder, attorneys at
law, of Columbus, and Harry Newman,
deputy sheriff were in town over night
last Thursday, leaving .for Columbus
Friday morning. Mr. Reeder is the re
publican party's candidate for eountv
attorney. Laying politics aside, he is as
good a man as the connty could nlace in
that office."

It looked like'old times to saa n iwr
car Friday doing duty as a baggage car
on a passenger train, and it was full to
the roof. It strikes us that if- the rail
roads would give excursions rates all the
time,, or say, one cent a mile, straight,
they would make money by it. The in
creased, amount of travel 'would' more
than compensate for. the dleorease in

Are We all Asleep?
Do we not realize tho improvements
our city is making, and can we not see
how city lots are going up every day?
We do not realize the benefits of the
8150,000 of improvements we are getting
as there yet is probably 890,000 of
them not completed. Now is the time
to buy, for if we Wait till spring eastern
parties will see tho advantage of invest
ing in our -city and lots will at once
double in value, and we will wonder
why we didn't catch on. I have many
very choice bargains in residences and
city lots, and if yon wish to make money
easy, honestly and judiciously call and
see me. 1 L. W. Weaver.
