stock buyers at Monroe have been com
pelled to haul water in wagons, because

every burg have its rights and privileges.

The following fable from Platte

a fable, and applies to something else
than hotels: "With the sweet. balmy

a long-felt want' in Columbus. We only
have six with two more in sight."

Osuka Cap tare Prizes.
Several of thePythian delegation from
Omaha returned yesterday with prizes
captured at the Columbus, Neb., en
campment. Omaha was awarded second
money, $150, for best drilled company,
and Lily division No. 8. of this city, took
first prize, $50, for largest drilled com

R. H. Henry says that in some parts
of Dakota, (where he has lately been),
they have not had rain since last August
and that small grain, in consequence, is
very short. In some places, the rains
have been sufficient and crops look well."
Dakota has a good many artesian wells
and some intelligent citizens are advo
cating that the general government make
a lanje appropriation for sinking artesian
wells in the territories for the purpose
of rendering the public lands available
for agriculture.
Quite a nnmber of democratic pa
pers are berating Gen. Lmderson for
drawing a pension wliile holding a lu
crative office in the gift of the state of
Nebraska. With only one exception
that we know of (the Fremont Herald),
tho democratic press fciiled to say any
thing about Gen. Black (one of their
partisans), who drew a pension of 5100
a month at the same timo he was gettinjr
?6,000 a year as commissioner of pen
sions. Consistency is a jewel, snre

Gerrard is a man of good inventive

E. A. Gerrard in the Looking Glass
of the Fourth, delivered a very excellent
address, commemorative of die virtues
of th forefathers and indicative of the
sort of men needed in these times, "men
large enough so that poverty cannot
hide them nor riches add luster to their
names, mtn who shall stand as a bul
wark against the hordes of sin, man of
purpose, men of action, men of nerve,
men that will do and dare for the rights
of this nation, not on the battte Held,
thank God, but in the small matters of
self government of home and home sur

and Omaha. Mrs. Powers will visit with

The Columbus Telegram informs
tho third party people that tho non
partisan prohibition movement in this
state is only a scheme to hoodwink them,
and that is the child of the republican
party. The Telegram cannot boast of
ever having made a guess that came
within several miles of the truth, and
this last is about as close as any. It will
be remembered that during tho cam
paign last fall the Democrat, which was
the ancestor of the Telegram, gravely in
formed the temperance people that the
republican party of the state had no in
tention of submitting the prohibitory
amendment, bnt was simply trying to
hoodwink them. The Telegram should
hire a new guesser. Central City Non
pareil. While coming into town the other
day, on this side of the river a gentleman
saw a loving couple (evidently not mar
ried, and it was quite evident they had
seen each other before, too), strolling
along on the sandy road. As they look
ed too happy to be disturbed, even the
horses seemed loth to intrude on their
happiness, the driver would have stopped
awhile, when just at the critical moment,
as our hero was going to claim the kiss,
the wagon, which had hitherto been
going along in a bed of sand, slipped
into a rnt and of course spoiled it all.
They both turned with a start, and the
driver with duo consideration for the
disturbed parties said "curse the
wagon,' it somewhat relieved the em
barrassment, but the driver still curses
the wagon, when he thinks of "what
might have been to the happy couple.
It is presumed that the kiss, when it
did come, was ripe and sweet, and a
little more relishable because of the
squeak of the whecL
P. T. Heckman of Omaha has been
visiting with J. D. Brewer. He is a me
chanical genius, and The Joukxal would
like to see his talents in use in this city.
A worker in wood and iron, he could
establish here an enterprise that would
not only be a paying investment for
himself but of very great benefit to this
community. Every industry that will
add to the number of persons engaged
in useful occupations giving them con
stant employment at fair wages, will
help to make this community what
Providence sefems to have designed it
should be, a manufacturing center in the
midst of a flourishing agricultural re
gion. Let us do all we can to put every
acre within a radius of twenty miles
under thorough cultivation, and encour
age every manufacturing plant, that
offers, under competent management
and favorable terms, to. use raw mate
rials here raised or that would here find
good market for their products. For
every man of us, each in his own way,
there is abundant work that will be ben
eficial in a financial way to each of us, as
well as to the general public The total

Convenient Market. Good Soil. Pure Water
aad Excellent Climate
Are advantages to be considered when
looking up a home, busiijess location,
farm, etc. West "Virginia, Maryland and
the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia, affords
these with many more advantages. No
section of the United States offers su
perior opportunities, and persons seek
ing a new home should examine these
states before deciding upon a location
elsewhere- Improved farm lands adapt
ed to stock raising, dairying, grain, grass,
and fruit growing can be obtained at
low prices and upon easy terms. Thriv
ing towns invite the merchant, mechanic
and business man. Abundance of coal,

for manufactures.

The 113th anniversary or Independ
ence Day was fitly celebrated in Colum
bus, by a great host of people, mostly,
of course, from Platte and ad
Joining counties, but many from other

Pythias followed by the Omaha band,
G. A. R, Columbus Knights, Fire De

Gen. Cowin, orator of the day. Thon

Tho forty-two states were represented
by young ladies, and after the wagon
containing these young beauties came
the finest trade display ever put on
wheels in Nebraska, as we verily believe.
One gentleman who had seen many such
ia the large cities, said he had never
seen it equaled in quality. The wagons
were handsomely gotten up, indeed, and
represented Abts & Calto. oil; Louis
Schreiber. wagon maker and blacksmith;
Friedhof .t Co., dry goods; The Thnrs

business streets and the display made
by tradesmen was complimented by all
beholders.
At the speaker's stand in the pirk,
the further eereiaes took place, Rev.
Powers opening with prayer, Maynard
I Turd reading the declaration in the
vary spirit of independence. Mayor
North thpn introduced Gen. Cowin of
Omaha who, as orator, delivered from
manuscript, a very flue address, mainly
directed toward the dangers to free gov
eminent from trusts" and from the cor
rnption of legislators, jnrors, etc.
The races txk place on Eleventh

race in 4(5 seconds.
The display of fire works m the open

evening was very good and witnessed by
a large crowd of people.

Columbus, as said the correspondent
of the Omaha Republican, ''filled her
pledges loyally and royally."
The number of Knights in attendance
was not nearly so large as some antici
pated and as the committee w.ero led to
believe by promises made and accommo
dations asked for.
The fair grounds were fixed up in fine
style; tents were numerous and accom
modations of all kinds most excellent.
Wood and water in abundance, and the
grounds brilliantly lighted by electricity.
The program as announced was car
ried ont as nearly as possible, and the
gathering may bo called a success when
it is taken into consideration the facts
of the limited number of uniformed
divisions in the state and this the first
stajj&eccampuient, and also that the
ifaysTUevoted to it included the Fonrth
of July, which fact probably was the
strongest factor against the encamp
ment, most members of the order being
business men and averse to leaving
home during the Fonrth.
The Columbus Knights- feel especially
thankfnl to Omaha, Lincoln and Hebron
divisions for their presence, at great ex
pense and sacrifice of time, and will not
soon forget their brethren of these
divisions.
The prizes awarded were for best
drilled division: Hebron No. 21), first;
Omaha No. 12. second; Marshall No. 10
of Lincoln, third; Capt. Berger of Lin
coln received the prize as the Iest
captain in the Nebraska brigade.
So far as we can learn, in every im
portant particular Columbus did her
