The Fremont Herald thinks it About
right: The Columbus police had a

probably be a little ahy of Columbus for

William Daily & Co. are a new firm
of live-stock, commission merchants at
South Omaha. William Daily, well
known all over Nebraska as the former
United States marshal, senator from
Nemaha county, eta, is the manager.
He has been a noted stock-raiser, ship
per and dealer for years, and is thor
oughly well posted. R. Elliott, their
salesman, is evidently a man very well
adapted to the business.
Advices have been received by the
encampment committee in this city
from Maj. Gen. James B. Carnahan, that
he will positively be here in July. Gen.
Carnahan is an ex-TJ. S. army officer,
who fought his way to the front during
the late war, and "won his spurs" by
merit. He now has under his command
in the Uniform Bank, Knights of
Pythias, a far greater body of men than
is contained in the present standing
army of this government.
Now is a good time to invest in well
bred young cattle. Thk Journal be
lieves that we have seen the lowest
depths of the cattle business, owing to
the great unloading of the range cattle
upon the market. The actual raising of
calves on the ranges has fallen off at
least 60 per cent within the past three
years, and this will begin to be frit on
the industry from now forward, that
every indication is for better prospects
with those who raise cattle on the farms
of the country.
It will pay any person who is willing
to spend $4.00 for a gate to examine the
one at E. A. Gerrard's residence in the
western part of the city. It can be readi
ly opened and closed by the driver,
without getting out of his vehicle or
down off his load of hay and raises over
obstacles without additional power. Mr.
Gerrard is a man of good inventive
genius, as has been shown by several of
bis achievements in that line, and need
ing a gate of this kind for himself, he
put his wits to work, and has the best
we have seen for the purpose. 48tf
We hear that Miss Laura Welker is
to be editor of the new paper at St.
Edward. She is a young lady of ability,
and with a great deal more than the
usual ambition to excel in the art of
printing. It seems as though St. Ed
ward ought to sustain a newspaper, of
small expense at least. The main reve
nue of the local newspaper is the adver
tising patronage, and where this is lack
ing, for any reason, the newspaper ought
to quit or mova There is, absolutely,
no business sense in a newspaper work
ing for a public, unless it makes a de
cent living.
It has always been the policy of
Thk Journal not to interfere in private
individual or family matters. There
are none but what have their little dif
ficulties, trials, troubles and differences,,
but it is no part of good sense to inter
fere to the detriment of both individ
ual and pnblic'good. The marriage re
lation is the most sacred of civil con
tracts. Reciprocal rights and duties
should be thoroughly understood and
respected, and no outsiders permitted to
interfere. Good sense, sound judgment,
forbearance and patience are the essen
tials in every relation of life.
The Schuyler Sun says: that Win.
Draper and family returned last week
from their visit to Salt Lake, Utah,
where he has been for his health, which
was but little benefited; that Henry
Schutte is building himself a large
house, 32x36, 18 feet studding, on his
farm of 480 acres on Taylor creek; that
the teachers of Colfax are to have a
basket picnic May 25, where every fa
cility will be given for teachers "to fill
themselves with theory and cold chick
en, with logic and laziness;" that Thad
deus Draper, son of Wax, who has been
in the west some time, returned to
Schuyler last week.
There is a general outcry in Nebras
ka against the tramp nuisance, and a
universal demand that they be met ev
erywhere with work. The professional
tramp endeavors to make people believe
that he is anxious to work, bat h isnt;
he obtains favor under false prr senses,
because there isnt anything in the world
that he'd rather not have than work.
Work would be a panjahment to him, as
it would also be the proper remedy for
all his ills, if he could muster resolution
enough to apply it to himself. Let him
have work, then, wherever he makes his'
appearance in Nebraska. That's the way
to quarantine against him. As an in
vestment it will pay. Next to him, are
the people who have no visible means of
support. An exchange remark
are some in every town who exist ia
way, bat no one knows how, aad it is a
PEXSONAL.

on his way to Genoa, where his commis

farm, will get along with them admira
bly. We expect to hear a good report
from Ed's work among the Indians.

Supt Cramer's paper on the Qualifi
cations of County Superintendents, read
before the state association at Hastings,
has attracted a good deal of attention
and awakened discussion in educational
circles. The County School Council,
published at Chicago, publishes the pa
per and gives it'the following hearty
endorsement: "The paper was good from
first to last We cordially endorse it,
and wish we could give it to readers
entire. It was somewhat out of the
usual line, and abounded in humor and
quaint allusions that held the attention
throughout" The paper takes up the
three phases of the question, viz: the
qualifications, manner of election, and
length of term of office. The superin
tendent's office is chiefly advisory in
character. The district is a corporation
having full power to transact all its
business. The superintendent is sup
posed to be capable of giving advice of a
professional character, just as a lawyer
or physician gives advice to his client or
patient on matters requiring professional
and technical knowledge. The superin
tendent should be a person of sufficient
experience and mental endowment to
meet their wants. He should be elected
by the school officers of the county, and
his term should not be less than four
years, the officers having power of re
moval for cause. It is impossible to
give here more than a hint at the general
character of the paper, but we are glad
glad to note that Mr. Cramer's marked
ability as. a close thinker and a clear
writer are recognized and appreciated.

I wish to announce to the public that
I am still alive and can extract as many
teeth per minute as any dentist in-the
state of Nebraska. My work in all
branches of dentistry cannot be sur
passed, and for the next one thousand
days I will make an especial effort to
please one and all. Have you an aching
tooth, a sore tooth, or a tooth that needs
filling or fixing in any manner, come at
once and be relieved of your trouble.
Have your teeth cleaned, and have them
examined every six months. If you
want a set of artificial teeth, teeth with
plate, a gold bridge, a gold crown, a
porcelain crown, a fine gold filling or any
other work in the dental line, remember
I will not be excelled. Prices below any
possible competition, for the same class
of work. Yon will save time, trouble and
money by attending to your teeth in
time. An ounce of preventive is worth
a pound of cure. Positively, you will
never have a better opportunity, if you
should wait a lifetime. I will be in my
office, day and night You will always
find me ready for business.
