Mr. W. P. Jaw.
The influence of a good man ia felt
long years after his departure from
scenes of earth, not only by the record
in printed words that he has left, bat in
the influence upon the living with whom
he came in contact, and in the never
ending impress made upon character and
thus transmitted to future generations.
Many young persons, readers of The
Journal, will remember W. P. Jones,
late of the Normal school at Fremont,
as one of their best teachers, and among
the moat genial of men. He carried
with him always, the halo of intelligence
seeking to. benefit mankind. In the
Evauaton (IlL) Press of the 7th, we no
tice a partial sketch of his life, which
contains a passage worth reproducing.
It will be remembered thet Mr. Jones
was founder and for many years presi
dent of the Northwestern female college
at Evanston, now an annex of the great
university at that place. He was sent,
in 1862, as consul to China by President
Lincoln:
"It was during his residence in the
celestial kingdom that the old Chinese
wall, whioh prohibited intercourse with
other nations, waa broken down and the
portals of the ancient empire opened and
the wealth of early civilization blended
with the progress and thought of
modern times. While in China Mr.
Jones was sent on a special mission .to
Jrekin, which resulted in a settlement of
the difficulty growing out of the opium
war and the destruction of American
property in Canton. Rev. Dr. Tal
mage once said of Mr. Jones work as
consul at Canton: 'No account of his life
in China, and effort to do good to these
people would be complete without a
record of his efforts to have the surplus
of the indemnity paid by China to the
United States repaid to China in the way
that would render to her the greatest
and most permanent advantage.'
"Returning to this country, Mr. Jones
connected himself with the Chicago
press; but longing for his chosen voca
tion, that of a teacher, he assumed the
presidency of the Fremont Normal
school, Fremont, Neb., where, in the
midst of his years of usefulness, he re
ceived the final summons, leaving the
precious memory of a life devoted to the
elevation and betterment of his kind."
In the spirit of his educational work,
Mr. Jones always reminded us of Horace
Mann, the justly celebrated president of
Antioch college and a great moral force
wherever he appeared. We think if Mr.
Jones could have bad his health, he
would have done untold good for the
youth of Nebraska.
Within less than a quarter of a cen
tury the bulk of the nation's wealth has,
by sharp practice, corporate exaction,
combination and monopoly, been concen
trated into the possession ot half a dozen
uncrowned kings. The railroads of the
United States, consolidated into half a
dozen great systems, are practically
owned and controlled by aa many bil
lionaires. Jay Gould owna and controls
the entire telegraph system of the Unit
ed States, and several thousand miles of
railroad. The Standard Oil monopoly,
with its hundreds of millions of capital,
practically controls the entire coal oil
supply of America. Nearly every im
portant industry is monopolized by syn
dicates and trusts. Where American
capital has not monopolized our indus
trial establishments, foreign capital is
rapidly buying up great concerns upon
which our people depend for supplying
necessary commodities. Bee.
The First BUI.
The first bill introduced in the senate
thia session of congress came from Sen
ator Sherman, and it waa aimed at the
trusts. It is identical with the anti
trust bill reported by him last year from
the committee on finance. It declares
all trusts unlawful; gives persona power
to recover in courts whenever articles
are advanced in value by combinations,
and declares the officera of trusts guilty
of misdemeanor.
H the repnblicana in congress will
just keep up thia line of action, the
country will bless theai, and a turn will
come in the tide, so that the men upon
whom rests the prosperity ot the coun
try, the toilers ia field, factory and shop,
will get a goodly share of the wagea
that properly belong to them.
A. W. Hyatt, an old settler in Myrtle
precinct, went to Oregon recently, and
was so well pleased, with the country
that he wrote back to his family to sell
his stock, rent the farm, ahip their house
hold goods and follow him. His orders
were obeyed to the letter, bat by the
time his family reached the new location
ho waa so disgusted with the country,
that they all tamed back and returned
to aster county, leaving orders at the
Oregon depot that whaa their house

Senator Paddock, from the commit
tee to audit and control the contingent
expenses of the senate, to whom was re
ferred the following resolution, reported
it without amendment, and it was con
sidered by unanimous consent, and
agreed to: "Resolved, That the com
mittee on organization, conduct and ex
penditures of the executive department
be, and it is hereby authorized to em
ploy a clerk, who shall be paid the usual
per diem salary of a committee clerk."
We find among petitions presented in
the senate, two by Mr. Paddock, of Ne
braskans, resident in Oklahoma, praying
for the organization of a territorial form
of government therein; of citizens of
Otoe county, Neb., praying that an ap
propriation of 9100,000 be made for im
proving the Missouri river, opposite
Nebraska City.
WashiagtoR Letter.
From oar regular correspondent.
Postmaster General Wannmaker pro
poses to use all of the influence at his
command to assist Senator Paddock in
getting his bill passed, which provides
for relieving the railway mail service
from the operation of the civil service
law. The bill which has already been
introduced in the senate, stands a good
show of passing, and some people think
that Senator Vance's bill for the repeal
of the entire civil service law may also
be passed. Speaking of the civil service
law Senator Paddock says: "I look upon
the system as a humbug, which in its
operation perverts the main idea of a
republican form of government.' Sena
tor Vance says on the same subject: "It
is losing strength in both parties, be
cause it has given no results that are
creditable.'
The first week of its existence congress
did little else but organize, and there is
little probability that it will get fairly-
down to business until after the Christ
mas recess. Very little can be done in
the house before all the committees are
appointed, but Speaker Reed announcing
some of them before the holidays has
done well better than the most of his
predecessors.
The biggest sort of a sensation was
created at the capitol last Thursday by
the announcement that C. E. Silcott,
cashier of the sergeant-at-arras office of
the house of representatives, had ab
sconded with something like 975,000. It
was particularly embarrassing to Mr.
Leedom, the retiring sergeant-at-arms,
who was just preparing to turn the office
over to his newly-elected successor, Mr.
Holmes. The money taken was thesal
aries of members of the house, and just
who will have to lose it is not yet set
tled, owing to the slip-shod way this
office has conducted its business for
years. A committee of the house, as
sisted by several expert accountants
from the treasury department, are en
gaged in making a thorough investiga
tion of the sergeant-at-arms office, and
their report, which k expected early this
week, is anxiously looked for. Mr. Sil
cott was brought here from Ohio by Mr.
Leedom six years ago, and since that
time it ia estimated that at least 930,
000,000 have passed through his hands.
He owes his downfall to fast women and
fast horses, a combination that rarely
tails to ruin any man who follows them
for any length ot time.
A vigorous attempt ia to be made to
get congress to take up and decide the
question of the Columbus World's Ex
position before Christmas. H it ia to be
held ia 1892, time ia getting precious.

posed to holding an Exposition to cele

Secretary Noble has given permission
to 35 Sionx Indian chiefs to visit Wash
ington. They went to talk to the presi
dent about the sale of their lands, which
they have recently agreed to. They are
expected here this week.
The committee on rules, which may
virtually be said to control all legisla
tion, consists of Sneaker Reed, Repre
sentatives McKinley and Cannon, and
ex-Speakers Carlisle and Randall.
Secretary Windom's annual report to
congress would have made his reputa
tion as one of the ablest financiers in the
country, if he had not been so rated be
fore. It is a document that the ablest
of his predecessors would have been jus
tified in feeling proud of. Its crowning
feature is the original and ingenious
. . .
system it proposes as a solution ot tho
never ending controversy between the
friends of gold and silver as a basis for
currency. Everybody is talking about
it, and doubtless those congressmen who
pride themselves on their financial
knowledge are burning tho midnight oil
studying it Whether it will be adopted
is a question that cannot be answered
off-handed. No public man who values
his reputation would commit himself for
or against such an important measure
without long and careful stndy. The
president in his message, .merely calls
the attention of congress to it, and then
adds that he may at a later day send in
n special message on the subject.
Oconee.
Corn husking is nearly over and the
busy hum of the sheller is heard in the
land.
Our enterprising grain dealers, Dack
k Wilson have the Oconee elavator full
of corn to the top and the drive ways
standing full of loaded wagons. They
cannot get cars fast enough to supply
their trade.
Had Gerrard and Decker waited a
short time, the war of words and blows
over the use of a moving outfit under
Gerrard's old drug store might have been
averted, as the trucks are now broken
down and the building stands on the
prairie between Oconee and Monroe.
Should it remain so located long enough
no doubt some senator-elect together

The surprise birthday party on Mrs.
A. L. Dack was a brilliant success. We

er corn sheller for his own shelling only.
Dan says he can make money at raising
corn at fifteen cents a bushel and hogs
at 93 a hundred, and he has tried it long
enough to know.

Louis Rose, of Maple Creek precinct,

Mr. Rose tells ns that nearly all of his

Probably no one thing has caused
such a general revival of trade at David
Dowty's drug store as their giving away
to their customers of so many free trial
bottles of Dr. King's New Discovery for
consumption. Their trade is simply
enormous in this very valuable article
from the fact that it always cures and
never disappoints. Coughs, colds,
asthma, bronchitis, croup, and all throat
and lung diseases qickly cured. You
can test it before buying by getting a
trial bottle free, large size 91. Every

Parents should be careful that their
children do not contract colds during
the fall or winter months. Such colds
weaken the lungB and air passages, mak
ing the child much more likely to con
tract other colds during the winter. It
is this succession of colds that causes
catarrh and bronchitis or paves the way
for consumption. Should a cold be con
tracted, loose no time bnt cure it as
quickly aa possible. A fifty cent bottle
of Chamberlain's Cough remedy will
cure any cold in a few dayITu leave
the respiratory organa strong and
healthy. For sale by all druggists.
