A vote for McAllister for the senate
iB a vote for a man who has had two
terms of honorable service in the gen
eral assembly, once as a member of the
house and again as a senator. He uses
good judgment in his personal matters,
has served the public faithfully and will
do so again. A republican among re
publicans, he is more apt to succeed
with legislation than a democrat

thanks to the waterworks and the fire

match in the hands of a little girl four
years old, who, doubtless would have
perished but for her elder sister who
rescued her just in time to save her
from the flames.
The Rising Independent of Oct 5th
has this little paragraph. A rush on
Rising will certainly run the price of po
tatoes higher than this quotation: "Po
tatoes are bringing 20 cents per bushel
in this market this season. Last year
the price ranged from 40 to 50 cents.
The high prices paid then were creatid
by the failure of the crop in Michigan
and ether potato countries, while this
year the crop has been large every
where.'' Judge Hudson is now located at the
Court House, in one of the new rooms
provided by the county fathers, where he
will be glad to receive his friends and
those who may have business to transact
As illustrating one of the important
functions of the Judge's office, the first
business he was called upon to transact
upon entering his new office was the is
suance of a marriage license. The Judge
is very genial, and especially so with the
young swains who come for license.
The correspondence in regard io the
ways and means of securing needed
amendments', to the township law has
resulted in a meeting to be held in this
city some time during the latter part of
next month, November, at which dele
gates will be present representing every
county in the state working under town
ship organization. Now if individual
supervisors will go to work and note
down all improvements they can think
of and hand the list to their delegate,
they will be doing the public an excel
lent service.
Michael. Maher, nominated by the
democracy for senator of this district
and Mr. J. C Swartsley for representa
tive, are both successful farmers, both
successful farmers, both have had much
to do with county affairs, the former as
.commissioner, the latter as supervisor,
and both are universally esteemed as
good citizens. Outside of the political
votes they will cast (against a republican
for U..8. senator, for instance, and the
like), we know of no particalar objection
against them. The' men are good bat
their politics is bad.

We find the following paragraph in
the Lincoln Journal of Saturday last.
We presume it has reference to a young
man, a former resident of this city: "De
tective Pound left yesterday over the
Union Pacific for Helena, Montana,
armed with, a requisition from . Gov.
Thayer for the arrest of Ed. Goetzinger,
who is charged by a Mr. Barry with em
bezzling the sum of $150. It is alleged
that Barry had commissioned Goetzinger
to sell, a soda fountain, which he did,
and then spent the money. When called
upon to make returns of the sale he
could. not do so, but gave his promise
that as soon as he could make a turn of
some matters and raise the money he
would account for the sale with interest.

There was a destructive fire started
near Ian-view school house last week.
Mr. S. Mahood lost four haystacks, oth
ers lost grain and Mr. Adams lost grain
and hogs, and Mr. Scholles'a grain and
house was barely saved by his and the
neighbors noble exertions, -and so was
the property of others.
Mr. A. Henrich has rented his farm to
Mr. Wm. Royalty of Smith county, Kan?
sas. Many parts' of the state have
suffered severely from drouth and -so
have parts of Nebraska, but Platte coun
ty is ahead every time. -
Lost Creek' township is making great
and commendable efforts to get good
roads, especially toward Platte .Center.
It a town wants to prosper let the roads
leading to it be in good condition and
the farmers who have to plor all earthly
prosperity for everybody out of the
ground will take pleasure'in coming and
J
feeding thd storehouses, pantries, cel
lars, stomachs and purses of their city
cousins.
There is talk of great cattle feeding
establishments all around and onr good
corn crop will find an excellent market,
better than ever, thank Godi .
Mr. A. Henrich will soon have a great
sale of everything and that. will be a
chance for everybody to get .eggs with
two yolks of every kind, sort,, name, age,
sex and description at low prices, low
interest and long, long time. Look out
for his bills!
Mr. Joe Joseph is building a snug
little' house good bye to the last sod
house in this neighborhood t May Joe
prosper in the new house and be happy!
Plowing goes very hard, but jou had
better plow 'fire lines long, deep and
broad wherever there is the least danger
of fire. An ounce of preventive is better
than a thousand pounds of cure in this
case.
' Several pleasant weddings have taken
place but the writer will not mention
names that the blooming young wives
may not blush for which surely there is
no cause or reason whatever. May they
all and every one have a car load of joy!

Galloway calves; 20 head' of high grade
Short Horn calves; 50 head of high grade
Short Horn yearlings, being mixed steers
and heifers; 120 head of high grade
Short Horn cows. These are a fine lot of
cows and are with calf by the two Gallo
way balls, to be sold. This, stock has
been Icept by me for several years and is
admitted by those having seen them to
be the finest lot of cattle seen together
in this section of country. The hornless
breeds of cattle must supersede the
horned breeds. This is a rare opportu

per cent, interest; a reasonable discount
will be allowed on cash payments.
