the best hotel in that particular portion.
Senator Stanford's Scheme.
In reading the bill introduced by the
Unitod States senator from California,
we see two very serious defects. The
first is that he makes a separate and de
preciated currency to loan on lands,
putting in an exception clause as fol
lows: "Except interest on the public
debt and in redemption of the national
currency." This is the very essence of
bad financiering, added to injustice to
the farmer. Today with all the adverse
legislation heaped upon us, we can bor
row money upon our real estate from
every foreign lender, money good for
any and every purpose. Now when wo
borrow money from ourselves upon se
curity held good the wide world over, to
offer us a depreciated currency is next
door to an insult. Money we want, not
without security that is good and suffi
cient, but we want no two classes of
money. No poor man's poor money.
Money based upon real estate is just as
good as gold, and no other kind will sat
isfy the farmer, who proposes to come
to the front aud make a vigorous
kick for his recognition financially with
the best, the very liest.
The next defect of a serious character
occurs in the clause "And the word per
son shall include corporation as well as
natural iiersons." Now the farmer
wants no corporation owners of lands
;.i will have none. Our law must have
a proviso for the encouragement of small
farmers. No loan going to other than
actual farmers, and no loan to one per
son upon more than one section, possi
bly much less, certainly never more.
Our farmers nre not political financiers,
but we are getting our business eye
upon this question nnd do not propose
to tako a defective, one-eyed, spavined,
old plug at par. We want an ample
currency based upon the earth, so it
will stand good for every dollar's worth
of production or indebtedness in all
these United States and we want it ex
actly on the same terms the United
States bankers have had it Call it
what you please, politically, morally, re
giously or in any other way, but give us
an even show in the world, financially.
One law, one money, one way of getting
it from the government, for all, and the
farmer im the front rank every time.
Hear us now. Looking Glass.
THE NEXT LEGISLATURE.
8oggf stlons to oar Icbraka SUtenati, Cost
piled from oar State Excause.
The fight against the saloon and
brewing business of the country may
soon assume a new shape inasmuoh as a
move has already been inaugurated to
have the cash received from saloon li
censee go to the general school fund of
the counties instead of to the general
school fund of towns in which the sa
loons are located. In order to do this,
there will of necessity be an amend
ment to the state constitution but the
legislature to meet at Lincoln next week
may see fit to submit this question for
the consideration of the people. The
Tribune has often wondered why the
country districts voted so largely to
perpetuate the saloon when it is known
that not a cent of the money derived
from license goes to the people of the
rural districts, while the people of the
country contribute a share toward the
support of the saloons, they incidentally
contribute a share toward the support of
the towns in which the saloons are loca
ted. If the coming session of the legis
lature submits any question to a vote of
the people this is likely to be one of
them. David City Tribune.

In a census bulletin just received from
Washington, we note the population of
the United States in 90, 62,622250 as
against 50,155,783 in '80 and 38,55871 in
70. Nebraska for 1890, 1,05810; for
1880, 452,402; for 1870, 122,993. The
number of white persons in Alaska is
not included in the sum total of inhabi
tants in the United States, as the census
of that far-distant country has not yet
been taken. New York, Pennsylvania,
Illinois, Ohio and Missouri head the
states; Nebraska, from the 30th in 1880,
comes in as the 26th in order, in 1890.

however, to lower the standard of integ

There are several cases of diphtheria
in town, but so far as we have learned
there are none considered dangerous.
Every precaution is being used to quar
antine the cases by the board of health,
and parents and other members of the
families are not allowed to leave the
house without changing clothing, an
extra suit being kept away from the
premises for that purpose. There is one
case in the family of Otto Underberg,
one each in George and Mont Wheeler's
families, one at Ed. Tramp's, two at
John Creamer's, and Mrs. James Bussey
is also down with the disease. By rigid
quarantine kept up for several days yet
and the free use of disinfectants, it is
hoped and thought that the disease will
not spread any more.

The latest from Lincoln, just before
we go to press is that the independents
have selected Elder of Clay county, as
speaker and Paynter of Boone as pres

that when the two bodies meet con
jointly, an objection will be raised to
deolaring any one elected governor, but
upon motion will defer such announce
ment until the charges, specifications
and evidence have been heard in joint
convention. They claim eight to ten
majority on this program.
Tariff Plctarw.

they dropped to 40,862 tons.
NEBRASKA NOTKS.
The three-year-old son of Chas. Ilager
near Davenport was horribly scalded in
a tub of lioiling water Wednesday, one
lad pushing another into the steaming
water, all the body being immersed ex
cept the head and feet. He died twelve
hours afterward in great agony. The
burned flesh fell from his body in chunks
and the lones were laid bare in places.
Burt May at Fremont shot Joseph
Hicks, both about twelve years of age,
Wednesday night; the bullet struck the
cheek bone and glanced down into the
neck, whence it was cut out by doctors.
They with two other boys had been
playing together, when May and Marr
retired to the house. The other tmys
were walking on stilts on the outside of
the window, and it would seem that May
thought the pistol (32 caliber) was not
loaded, and snapped it to scare the boys,
but with the result of leaving a scar on
his playmate.
James Mclntire, a one-armed collec
tor at Nebraska City, was held up
Wednesday evening and robbed of $65
and valuable papers. He was uncon

At Lyons, Wednesday, F.O. Eckleen's
large store building, occupied by Nath

valued at $8,000 to $10,000, with an in

surance on the building.
CHSISTMAS AMONG ORANGE GROVES.
Hew i'arlatmas Looks to a Nebraska Maa la
Koatkera California.
For weeks the show windows have
been gay with tempting articles for the
holidays, but for the most part, of a
character quite different from those we
see in our northern cities. No furred
gloves and overshoes; no sleighbells and
warm robes; no mufflers or skates or
coasting sleds, but such things as you
would want to seleot from did Christ
mas coma in June instead of December.
Last-night the churches were filled
with the children and their friends, and
the entertainments were not unlike
oursfon such occasions, except their
Christmas trees bore different fruit, and
instead of the orthodox Santa Clans in
his furred robes and frosted beard,
ushered in by jingling bells, they have
improvised a sort of tropical Santa
Claus. ' The genuine old fellow has been
tried, but where the jingle of sleigh bells
is never heard nor the coat of fur ever
seen, where snow is unknown except as
seen from the distant mountain tops,
and where flowers are blooming in the
streets on Christmas day, he was thought
out of place. But the children looked
rather incredulous upon the new-fangled
St Nick, and -I doubt if the bogus fel
low ever satisfies at least the present
generation of boys and girls, most of
whom were born on the frosty plains of
Nebraska or Iowa or in other northern
states.
At one of the churches they had a
novel admission fee. Neither child,
woman nor man, could gain entrance
without depositing a good sized potato.
The result was a big pile of tubers.
Where the needy people are they were
gathered for, I'm sure is more than I can
tell. There is the least appearance of
poverty in Riverside of any place I ever
saw.
The day has been perfect, even for a
southern California day. As on most of
these midwinter days, a little fire in the
early morning is comfortable. A light
overcoat, if riding, but none if walking.
Later in the day neither is needed. I
write in the afternoon sitting by the
open window with no fire. Ladies on
the street carry sun shades, and if any
wraps they are mostly carried on the
arm. In the ornamented borders along
the fronts of the orange groves are roses
and geraniums in great variety in full
bloom. The plots in front of the cot
tages snuggled in among the loaded
orange trees are bright with flowers.
This morning I passed one yard where
a nook entirely covered with calla lilies
occupied several square yards. Its
wealth of beauty made me exclaim
aloud. Think of a dozen or more of
these beauties in bloom in the front
yard on Christmas day, you who are
carefully nursing a potted calla in your
heated conservatory or by your big base
burner.
My little stove is not exactly adapted
to preparing roast turkey, but I found
in the market enough else to make a
very good bachelor's dinner, of wbioh a
dish of strawberries just from the vines
was not the least enjoyable. They were
not little, poor, puny, unseasonable look
ing, nor insipid from the hot house, but
great, luscious berries that looked as
though they had forgotten it was De
cember instead of Jane.
The streets have been almost deserted
since noon, but now at midafternoon,
the family dinners over, the bright sun
shine, the soft delicious atmosphere and
the perfect roads begin to bring, the
people out Besides, the eastern mails
have just been distributed. This people
almost without exception, have been
transplanted from New England, the
middle states and the great northwest,
within a few years. The social Christ
mas has especially reunited many of the
friends left behind, and messages from
them are today more eagerly than usual
ly sought. The city is not compact like
commercial and manufacturing towns,
but scattered over many square miles of
territory, and nearly everybody rides.
There are no paved streets but the roads
are almost as perfect as the noted as
phaltnm streets of Santa Barbara, and
I oan imagine no more interesting drives
than through these avenues, lined with
the palm, the pepper, the eucalyptus,
with their foliage as green as at mid
summer, for scores of miles between
orange groves, now most gorgeous with
with thin, yellow foliage, and the whole
community seems to bo in carriages this
lovely afternoon. My window looks
down from opposite the post office and
it is interesting to watch the occupants
of tho vehicles as they stop for the day's
mail.
Here comes an odd rig, genuine Eng
lish, with its two high seats, back to
back, the hind one having only a foot
board for the feet, which is turned up
when not occupied. Had it tho liveried
driver and footman, one would think
both rig and occupants had just started
out of Hyde Park, London. Young
John Bull in knoe breeches, hands the
lines to one of the ladies and steps down
for the mail, a man more perfect in
physiquel've seldom seeu.He returuswith
a handful of letters, the large, square
envelopes which indicates that they are
from across the water, and tosses them
to tho ladies. Though this man looks
to be scarcely 30, he has been sent here
to manage the improvement of a tract of
fruit land in which an English syndi
cate has invested over half a million of
English money.
Most of tho equipages are comfortable,
usually with light sunshade top. Sel
dom a close carriage. Many fine horses
but in the hundreds I've seen today not
one vehicle was gaudy or pretentious,
and not one with liveried attendants.
Charles Dudley Warner in a recent Har
per's Monthly did the Kiversiders an in
justice by picturing a snob, driving a
tandem team as the most conspicuous
object on their noted magnolia avenue.
The absence of just that sort of thing is
more conspicuous here than any place of
like wealth I was ever in.
It is all a very pleasant and
interesting sight, but I have to stop and
argue with myself to realize that it is
Christmas day. Ami this is not an ex
ceptional mid-winter day in these south
ern California towns. December h;is
been nearly full of them. Two or three
times heavy rains, some of them contin
uing two or three days, but when they
stopped the sun came out brushed the
drippings from the flowers, and they
only shone the brighter, and the smooth,
deep green leaves of the orauge trees
seemed to have had a rebnrnishing. In
a day or two the roads were dry and the
driving as fine as ever. The foothills
and parts of the valleys not yet reached
by the irrigating ditches that have lain
brown and dry all summer are taking on
a green tinge and the new sown barley
is pushing through tho mellow surface.
This is a true picture of mid-winter in
southern California, in spots at least, and
the question constantly comes up, why
should not a good many more exchange
the storms and bitter cold of the north
for the luxury of living where such con
ditions as these oan be depended upon?
The' answer comes plain and simple
because these conditions which produce
the finest oranges in the world will not
produce the best men and women.
These wonderful developments and en
terprises carried on here in these later
years are the work, almost without ex
ception, of men bred in the rigorous cli
mate of the north. And if continued in
in the future, as they certainly will be,
it will net be by children born and rais
ed here, but by the continued addition
of brain and nerve from the north. We
may abandon the severe conditions of
our northern homes, but by doing so,
I'm quite persuaded that we necessarily
abandon the conditions that produce the
men who move the world.

Secretary Noble and Commissioner

Secretary Proctor's family had a nar
row escape Saturday afternoon. They
had just left a large double sleigh to go
into a store, when the horses in some
manner became frightened and ran
away, smashing the sleigh to pieces and
badly injuring the driver. The runaway
team was recognized by many peoplo as
Secretary Proctor's and a rumor was
soon flying around town that the sec
retary, Mrs. Proctor and their two boys
had been killed. There was the wildest
excitement until it was learned to
untrue.

For The Jocbnal.
Religion.
"Tis reUgion that can icivo
Bweeteat pleManrea while wo live;
Tis religion can supply
Bweeteet pleasures when we die."
A lady said to Mr. Wesley: "If you
knew that you wero to die tomorrow
night at twelve o'clock, how would yon
spend the intervening time?" "Just as
I intend to now," he replied; "I should
preach nt Gloucester this evening, at
Tukesberry tomorrow, meet tho so
cieties in the evening, then repair to
the house of my friend who expects to
entertain me, converse and pray with
the family ns usual, retire to my room
at ten o'clock, commend myself to my
heavenly father, lio down to rest, and
wake up in glory."
Similar to that were tho foelings of
Dr. Watts. He Baid: "I bless god that I
can lio down with comfort at night, not
being anxious whether I wake in this
world or another."
And Talmage says: "There is no life
on earth so happy as a really Christian
life." And we know that is so, and that
we can all enjoy this glorious religion if
we will. Not because we are worthy,
but because "God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten son. that
whosoever believes in him should not
perish, but have everlasting life."

A Charm ini; Memory.
No improvements have been so mark
ed, so signally perfect in attainment in
the last few years, as the numerous lux
uries which have been introduced in i
trans continental travel. Instead of liar- j
rowing recollections the tourist now hasi
left to him when his journey is complet
ed, a charming memory of perfect train

is something far in advance of anything

in the third place, in 1S90, where it will remain ten
years r.nd tlin move up to second place in 1900,
where it will rest for one hundred years.
There i another "9" which has also come to stay.
It is unlike th-i flgure 9 in our dates in the respect
that it has already moved up to first place, where
it will permanently remain. U is called the "No.
i" High Arm Wheeler & Wih-on Sewing Machine.
The "No. 9 was endorsed for flrt place by tho
experts of Europe at the Paris Exposition of 1889,
where, after a severe contest with the leading ma
chines of the world, it was awarded the only
Grand Trize given to family sewing machines, all
others on exhibit having received lower awards
of gold medals, etc The Freuch Government
r.bo recognized Ussupcriority by the decoration of
J.I r. Nathaniel Wheeler, President of the company,
with the Cross of the Legion of Honor.
The "No. 9" is not an old machine improved
upon, but is un entirely new machine, aud tho
Cirand Prize at Paris was awarded it as the grand

dren. Mothers havo rejieatcdly told me of IU
good effect upon their children."
Da. G. C. Osoooo.
IiOtrell, Mass.
' Castoria is tho best remedy for children of
which I am acquainted. I hope the day Is cot
far distant when mothers will consider the real
Interest of their children, and use Castoria in
stead of the various quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and oilier hurtful
ageuts down their throata, thereby sending
them to premature graves."
