JOHN IIANEY INJURED.
An Old Citizf n Xakrs a Very Narrow Es
rape from Dentil.
Last Saturday evening John Haney
started from thiB city for his home on
the road toward Schuyler, having in his
wagon two barrels of salt. His nephew
(James Haney's son) was following with
another team.
When near the residence of Widow
Lawrence, Mr. Haney's team got fright
ened, a clip to one of the singletrees
came loose, thus freeing the tug, which,
in turn, let the neckyoke down, and the
horses, after running quite a distance,
got detached from the wagon and ran
home.
When the young man came up to his
undo he found him lying ou the ground
with a barrel of salt across his kg.
The accident occurred alxmt 8 o'clock.
Word was brought to the city, and Drs.
Evans and Arnold went to the injured
man's assistance and dressed his
wounds; they found his right leg broken
just above the knee, liesides a number
of severe bruises. Chief Taylor accom
panied the doctors down from the city,
and he says that Mr. Haney lay, of
course as comfortably as could be pro
vided, for about three hours, exj-oeed to
the night air, and it was 12 o'clock when
he got to his home.
The rumor that Mr. Haney was drunk
is positively contradicted by Taylor,
who says that he was perfectly sober.
At last accounts Tuesday, just before
going to press, we learned that Mr.
Haney was getting along very nicely,
and it is the hoje of his very many
frinds that he will soon and thoroughly
recover from his accident.
Jnst the Talk.
P. S. Griffin of this vicinity has receiv
ed a letter from his brother John S. of
St. Louis, Mo., a postscript of which
runs as follows:
I notice according to U.S. census that
Xebraska has tho largest percentage of
increase of any state in the Union.
From 432,402 in "1880 you have grown to
1,105,000 in 18JW. This is marvelous and
in the face of it the people of Columbus
ought to bestir themselves, for the town
has not kept pace with the state. Co
lumbus ought to have a population of
8,000 by this time. Your representative
men ought to get together and offer in
ducements to any industry that proposes
to locate in the town. Get up a pamph
let giving a detailed account of soil,
climate and railroad facilities and scat
ter this pamphlet broadcast. Colorado
has a grand display of not only minerals
but cereals at our exposition. Why
could not Xebraska do likewise? Your
leading merchants must wake up. Spend
some time and money in advertising
your town. If you don't do this other
itnd younger towns will run ahead of
vou. " You will be left in the shade.
After midnight, Monday, some one
called at Abts' barn and asked the man
in keeping, Theodore Krescha, to open
the door. He got up, pushed aside a
window curtain, and immediately a shot
was fired from the outside, the ball
passing through the glass and passed
across the palm of the left hand cutting
into the deeper fiesh of the side of the
hand. Dr. Clark was called and dressed
the wound. No clue to the would-1-e as
sassin, and no reason known for the
cowardly deed. The above is the ac
count of the matter as given by the man
himself, but Chief of Police Taylor is
satisfied, from a thorough examination
of the particulars that the man acci
dentally shot himself, as the smoke of
the discharge was on the inside of the
window, the glass was evidently broken
from the inside, and the nature of the
wound itself indicated that it was made
by a pistol in the man's hand, when dis
charged; besides, the pistol in the room
had blood upon it.
Some years ago in our High School,
we lielieve that it was Matie Wadsworth
who questioned the correctness of one
of the propositions of a certain geometry
then (and now) in use here. The propo
sition read "Every chord is less than a
diameter." Prof. Cramer was then teach
er, and he said it was clearly a mistake,
because a chord is a straight lino joining
the extremities of an nrc, and an arc is a
portion of a circumference, and of course
a diameter is a chord. Miss Wadsworth
wrote to the publishers, calling their
attention to the matter, and received
their reply to the effect that it was an
error, and in subsequent editions the
correction would le made. The form in
which it now appears is: "The diameter
is greater than any other chord." Geom
etry is recognized as one of the studies
requiring the exercise of a clear under
standing, a retentive memory, and good
reasoning powers.
Another Convention.
Monday afternoon at the court house
in this city, the democrats of Platte and
Xance county, mot in convention by
their delegates, and after selecting O. E.
Green of Genoa as chairman, and D. F.
Davis of this city as secretary, proceed
ed to business.
George E. Willard, a well-known dem
ocrat of this city, was declared the unan
imous choice of the convention as their
candidate for representative of the 25th
district
The convention selected J. W. Tanner
of Xance and D. F. Davis of Platte as
members of their central committee for
the next two years.
George Willard is a good man, liked
by everybody, but we don't lelieve this
is George's year to be elected to the
legislature.
Rev. James K. Maxfield in entering
upon his pastorate of the M. E. church
in Bellwood for another year, asks the
public generally for snpport that no part
of his time may be needed for secular
employment. He says: "If I am allow
ed to utter anything worth hearing, from
the pulpit, I must have ample time for
preparation, with the best helpers at
hand." This is the lungtuige of the stu
dent, trained after the ordinary methods,
rather than the disciple, thoroughly im
bued with the spirit, and believing that
what is said, is given by the spirit.
Rev. and Mrs. Worley and Mr. and
Mrs. L. J. Baker went to Bellwood Mon
day evening to hear the lecture of Rev.
James Worley, on the Chinese. Mr.
Baker gives a very glowing description
of the lecture, and says that he would
not have missed it for a very great deal.
It is probable that Mr. Worley will
lecture in this city shortly, and if he
does everybody at all interested in the
peculiar customs, laws, superstitions,
etc., of this strange people, should bear
him.
F.X-GOV. LARRABKK.
An Able, Candid Man Delivers hit Senti
ment on the Question of Prohibition.
Ex-Gov. Larrabee of the great state of
Iowa is justly regarded as one of the
able men of tho country. On the ques
tion of transportation, he stands at the
head of those state executives who have
sought to enforce the just views of the
jieoplo in regard to freight rates on rail
roads. He is, evidently, a plain, fair
minded, sincere man, and for these
reasons he had a large audience to greet
him last Thursday evening at the opera
house, where he spoke under the aus
pices of the non-partisan league.
At 8 o'clock the meeting was oiened
by prayer by Rev. Worley, after which
J. X. Heater introduced the speaker.
He referred to the fact that the re
sponsibility, in good part, of the future
welfare of a state or community, depend
ed upon tho character of the early set
tlers. In this respect Xebraska has the
advantage of many of the elder states of
the union liecause, iu a sense, she has
a picked class of people, and therefore
as a commonwealth, greater facilities
and advantages. To have good results
it is necessary to have a solid founda
tion to build upon. Material and intel
lectual progress are not the only things
to consider the moral element is chief.
As Lecky says "moral strength is what
makes a great people." The church, the
school, the home are tho three great ed
ucators. In the progress of civilization
every community has new problems for
settlement, and when an evil is permit
ted to grow it is always at groat cost to
the community. Our wisest statesmen,
from the beginning, saw that slavery
would bring us trouble, and it did, an
immense cost of life and treasure. Xow.
we have in tho liquor traffic a greater
evil than slavery. That had what might
be called compensating incidents. This
has none. Nobody is bettered by it.
Farming is necessary to raise wheat,
corn, cattle, hogs, etc.; tho merchant is
necefesary to supply us with needed arti
cles of consumption; mechanics are
needed to build our homes, etc.; doctors
and lawyers are necessary, but wo can
disqense with the traffic in intoxicating
liquors. Xot a man or family would be
injured if the sale of intoxicating liquors
should cease. Xone of this audience
dreamed forty years ago that they would
live to see slavery abolished in this
country, but it did take place. So it is
with the traffic in liquors. Ho had not
expected to see the traffic cease in Iowa.
He had, with others, lielieved in and
worked for a license law aimed at re
ducing the traffic to the minimum, but
with no hope of doing away with it al
together. He had changed his mind,
and declared to his audience that if they
could have the information that ho had
had in tho last ten years, they would
doubtless be of his opinion. He declar
ed his faith in the honesty, ability and
integrity of purpose of the great mass of
people the rank and file of tho political
parties are right, and can be thoroughly
trusted. He cited an example at the
outset of the Rebellion, saying that
many officers who had lieen educated at
West Point, and had liecome prominent,
proved traitors to the government and
entered the service of tho Confederacy,
but history does not record a single in
stance of a private turning traitor at the
lieginning of the Rebellion.
He then gave a history, somewhat in
detail, of the legal contest in Towa
against tho liquor traffic. As to the en
forcement of the law, he says that be
tween 3,000 and 4,000 saloons have been
closed. He was sure that there is not
one-tenth tho liquor Bold as before, and
ho believed not one-twentieth; he had
talked with railroad superintendents
who said they didn't ship now one car
load where they had formerly carried a
train, or one barrel of whiskey where
formerly it had leen a car load. He
turned his attention to the assertion
that prohibition hurts business, and ask
ed How? Grass still grows in Iowa,
corn, wheat, pigs, cattle, boys and girls.
The men and boys do lietter work with
out tho liquor. Does your boy tako
better care of your horses by reason of
drinking liquor? Is there a man in the
room who prefers his boy to use intoxi
cating liquors? There is a growing dis
position among all claeses who employ
help not to engage those who are addict
ed to drink. The great railroad compa
nies have begun in this, and tho tenden
cy is such that before long the young
man wuo wisnes to succecu in imBint-ts
muBt lie 6ober minded. Thero aro a
hundred wavs in which prohibition has
lieen a benefit to Iowa, and, like all other
good things, they don't come by chance.
When communities allow wise men and
women to mark out their policies it is
not by chance that they prosper. The
law of the Almighty is unerring. Yon
mav think you can cheat him, but you
can't. Suppose 4,000 saloons have an
average income of ono, two, three, or
five thousand dollars a year, you nave
fonr million to twenty million dollars
gono for naught under heaven of any
value. It will not hurt business to put
this vast sum in legitimate trade.
