Why is heart disease so prevalent among Americans? Ite latest prominent Tictim was Senator Wilson, of Maryland, who died suddenly at Washington last week. It is suggested that if Powdorly is nominated by the K.of L., and endorsed by the Alliance and F. M. B. A's, he will make a formidable candidate for presi dential honors. Thtjksdat the supremo court over ruled the demurrer of the attorneys for Gov. Boyd and set March 10th, on which he must file an answer to Thayer's al legation of non-citizenship. Republicans are enjoying the scrap ping match between the Cleveland and anti-Cleveland democrats knowing that they are fighting for what is certayj to le an empty honor next year's demo cratic nomination. Senator Carlisle is the latest suffer er from that dangerous malady known as presidential fever. Once thoroughly inoculated with the virus of that disease no man was ever known to entirely re cover his teace of mind. Geokoe A. Clark, an expert iron worker of Boston, claims to have dis covered an ore in the Rocky mountains which is new to the world. It is non corrosive, and when united with iron or copper, it increases their tensile strength and fluidity tinder heat. Congratulations from all quarters of the United States to Blaine for "the wise and far-seeing policy inaugurated" and hoping that reciprocity may reach other countries, lesides Brazil, thus materially increasing the commercial prosierity of the United SUitee. Despatches from Mississippi Monday Bay that during the preceding thirty six hours, there had prevailed the severest rain 6torm they had had for years. At Yazoo City all the ware houses are more or less submerged and many families had been driven from their homes. Weeks Bros., were arrested Wednes day at Cheyenne, Wyoming, for work ing the "fake" piano lottery scheme. Scores of letters continue coming through the mails, with $10 enclosures to pay the freight on the supposed gift piano that each of the letter writers sup poses he has drawn. The Fremont Herald says "And if Gov. Boyd should resign, what a debt of gratitude the democratic party would owe him for leading us through a bloody campaign up to an empty barrel! Jim Boyd had better get his life insured right straight off." The Herald is dem ocratic, which accounts for its very lively sense of the situation. Well, well! that organ of free trade and starvation prices and wages, the New York World, wants England to drive out the present form of govern ment in Brazil and take charge of that country in order to stop the reciprocity treaty, which goes into effect April 1, next, between Brazil and tho United States. That's a nice sort of business for a great American newspaper to be engaged in, isn't it? Hon. Jerry Simpson sprung a hoary headed chestnut on the Washington newspaper men when he asserted that the republican party was dead. We have heard that same story at irregular inter vals for many years, but the republican party goes right along advocating all that is best and most patriotic for the country. Many people are sometimes led astray by glittering generalities, as some republicans were last year, but they always return to the republican fold, just as thousands will do next year When the republican party dies its death will be followed by. the funeral of re publican institutions and the people are not ready yet to welcome a dictator. Under the new law, commonly called the Australian ballot law, the tickets will be furnished by the state, or by the local authorities; all the candidates for each office will be placed together on one ticket, and the voter will mark with vidz opposite the name, the person for whom he desires to vote. No one but the voter knows how his ballot is made up. The inarching of companies of men to the polls and voting them as so many irresponsible slaves will not now be practiced. In many ways the law is a good one. Wherever the Australian system proper or anything like it has been instituted, it has given excellent satisfaction, as the best known preven tive of fraud, coercion and bribery. TRUST VERSUS TRUST. Combined Farmer Intend to Work Their 'Way Ont. Legislation is too slow for business, and Iowa, Missouri, Kansas and Nebras ka purpose a method of self-defence that looks well on the start, and may prove very effectual in the outcome. The out h'na r.f wminnicn is for the combined alliances to build eleiatore, warehouse and buildings for cold storage, and to have agents in Kansas City, Omaha, Chi cago, St, Louis and other large cities, to keep the alliances informed of prices, and the demand for products, and then to ship only enough to supply the de mand, so that there will be no fictitious or speculative prices. Frank McGrath, president of the Kan sas alliance, sets forth the scheme thus: "No individual member will sell his grain to option men or bankers," "but when he is obliged to sell grain it will lie taken by the alliance. The same thing will follow with cattle. We will have agents in Kansas City and St. Louis, who will keep the district alliance post al im to the market and demand. Upon this information the demand will be supplied and no more, at a rat fixed, the price to be determined by the alli ance. No option wheat will be on the market, therefore no speculating on grain lefore the harvest. The four states in this trust will practically control the wheat and cattle markets or. tlie uniieu States. The hardest thing we have to deal with is fixing the price. We mean to ascertain the exact cost of the product and ad. I a reasonable profit to it. The new Fch. uie is modelled in detail aftt r the wiiLkv trust. Of course, you will saj our principles will not admit of it, but we have decided that we must tight the devil with fire." Certainly, tho evils of the present sys tem of things are that many farmers are compelled to dispose of products before they ought, and at ruinously low prices; the prices, not only of raw materials, but also of manufactured products, are mainly dictated by speculative and not natural and normal interests; trans portation gets altogether too large a share of what ought to be the producer's profit. Any scheme of self-defence that will correct these wrongs will be hailed with delight by the hosts of producers, and all people who love to see fair play. The MtCubbin Tragedy. To what has already appeared in The Journal, we add the following from the Gibbon Reporter, published at McCub bins's former place of residence; the time first referred to, is the day of the tragedy: "Messrs. Baker and Halloway arrived on the scene about 4 o'clock on Saturday afternoon and Mr. Baker immediately ordered an undertaker to prepare the bodies for burial. He purchased a lot in the Leigh cemetery and with 821 found on Yobe's person ho was decently buried. Caskets were ordered by Leigh Lodge I. O. O. F. for McCubbins and wife and tho bodies wero prepared for burial and held for the arrival of Mrs. Garish, when they were to be taken to Indiana for burial. The following letter was found on the person of Yobe and will explain itself: Feu. 14, 1811- Dear i have been a steading over about yon leaving I dont want yon to leave until your six month is up then it will be long enough to wait you said if you staid there would be something hap pen dont hurt no one but me and your self I would rather die with you, than for you to go away if you go away I dont think you care for me as 1 do you if you go away i wont get to hear from you any more. No name was signed to the letter, neither was there tin envelope. It is the general supposition that Mrs. McCub bins wrote it. At about that date Mc Cubbins and his wife and hired man bad some trouble and he discharged him and Mrs. Mc said she would go, too. Me. gave her $50 and told her to go, but the children cried and legged her so hard to stay that he also asked her not to leave. In conversation with the girl, in support of the theory that the liaison was of long standing, she said that, "when Pa was gone away from home Ma would put us to bed and then go into Frank's room and lock the door and stay all night" In conversation with the neighbors Mr. Halloway learned that Mrs. McCub bins had repeatedly endeavored to give the children away, as she said she did not want any of his children. Mr. Mc Cubbins was painfully aware of her in fidelity. ,13 an addition to his family was expected shortly, of which he knew m thin,; until visible evidence informed him. The case is a sad one and no one should condemn." The New County. We haven't heard much of late con cerning the new county, proposed to be formed out of the southern portion of Madison and tho northern portion of Platte. Madison seems to be most anxious not to nave tne new county formed, and the Reporter says: "If there are any number of the citizens of Platte county who want to be cut off from their county proper, they may find a remedy by being joined to Madison conntv. but Madison countv does not want any division. A new county formed out of the remnants of these two counties is a myth. The Humphrey folks are, of course, willing to make the effort at the cost of the tax-payers who must foot the bill, if a sufficient number of legal voters sign the petition. Let it be understood first and last that Madi son county does not want any new county and does not favor any such a visionary scheme, one that would bank rupt all three counties if the people living in them permitted 6uch a scheme to be successful. No division! Remem ber that, gentlemen." And again, referring to the bill in the legislature, by "which Humphrey hopes to make itself the county seat of a county to be formed out of one tier of town ships off of Madison county, and two off of Platte county, by a majority of all the votes cast in both counties, or in other words it is a scheme where the two fractions could be forced to become such a county, by a majority of the votes of the other parts of the counties. This means another disturbing element in well organized counties, and a scheme to burden the tax-payers with a load that they will find injurious to the value of property, and unsettle county matters generally." And yet again: "If Humphrey wants to be a county seat let her get it at the expense of her own tax-payers." NEBRASKA NOTES. Sheriff Mallon of Fremont returned Wednesday from Canada, having in charge Firestone, wanted at Fremont as a "crook." On Monday, fire destroyed the print. ing establishment of Gibson, Miller Richardson at Omaha, loss $200,000, in surance 140,000. Broatch's wagon stock house, adjoining, was damaged 820,000; insured. The fire was caused by a boy smoking a cigarette in the press room. G. H. Cook, in durance vile at Fre mont, is supposed to be the man who swindled Rev. Isaiah A. Bradnck or Omaha out of $5,000. His first grace at table is 6aid to have been "good enough to eat along with the other delicacies of the season, and when it came to family wnmhin he was absolutely sublime in his improvised devotion." Last summer Bernard Jonas went over on the farm of Frank Charvat, both of Shell Creek precinct, and without cause assaulted the old man, who was at work in a corn field, beating and kicking him shamefully. A damage suit resulted and in Judge Allen's court Charvat re ceived a verdict of $200. This was the first case on record in this county where in a plaintiff received a judgment for damage for personal injuries. The de fense could not realize it and appealed. The district court sustained Judge Al len's good sense and went him one better placing the damage at $275. This will probably set a precedent and may be a warning to other fellows who believe in pugilism. Schuyler Quill. Washington better. Front our regular correspondent. A bill allowing the widow of Admiral Porter a pension of $2,500 a year passed the house and senate. The senate paid senator Blair, who was nominated by the president to be United States minister to China, a handsome compliment in unanimously confirming the nomination within less than an hour after it was received. Here's a pointer for republican mem bers of the Farmers' Alliance: Gov. Tillman, of South Carolina, who is visit ing here, says that the Farmers' Alliance in his state was formed for the purpose of controlling the democratic party in that state, and that upon national ques tions it will always support the demo cratic ticket. This isn't very new, but it is worth thinking over, by those gen tlemen who are sanguine enough to figure upon electoral votes from the south for an Alliance national ticket next year. Some surprise was recently created by ex-senator Mahone, in a newspaper in terview, booming senator Gorman for the democratic presidential nomination, but the cause is now apparent, and it is creating considerable indignation among the labor organizations and others, who had been promised last summer that a new government printing office building would certainly.be provided for at this sessiou, and now the whole matter has been coolly postponed until next De cember. Hero are the facts: A commit tee of eminent gentlemen, including the lato secretary Windom, acting under in structions from congress, selected as the most available of the sites offered one that is in the neighborhood of the pres ent printing office. Everybody seemed satisfied except ex-senator Mahone, who has a site which he wants to sell the government for $250,000. He began ac tive operations to hang the matter up, and he succeeded in getting the aid of senators Gorman, Cameron and Butler, the latter making an ungentlemanly and personally abusive speech in order to get a resolution adopted by the senate postponing the purchase of the site. If any accident causing the loss of life or property occurs in the present man trap used as a government printing office these gentlemen must shoulder the re sponsibility. After one of the most determined leg islative fights of the session, the senate bill allowing tonnage subsidies to Amer ican vessels engaged in foreign trade, was defeated, and the senate bill author izing the postmaster general to contract with steamship lines for carrying the mails to foreign countries was passed by the house. The president and Mr. Blaine were anxious that both of these bills should be passed, considering them valuable adjuncts to the success of re ciprocity. The senate adopted a resolution in structing the committee on printing to investigate the printing of public docu ments with a -view to reducing the cost of same. Senator-elect Kyle, of South Dakota, is in town. He says he will not enter the democratic caucus, but that he will act with that party on the tariff and financial questions, providing that party sticks to free coinage.

The constant demand of the traveling 'public to the far West for a comfortable and at the same time an economical mode of traveling, has led to the estab lishment of what is known as Pullman Colonist Sleepers. These cars are built on the same gen eral plan as the regular first-class Pull man Sleeper, the only difference being is that they are not upholstered. They are furnished complete with good comfortable hair mattresses, warm blankets, snow white linen, curtains, plenty of towels, combs, brushes, etc., which secnre to the occupant of a berth as much privacy as is to be had in first class sleepers. There are also separate toilet rooms for ladies and gentlemen, and smoking is absolutely prohibited. For full information send for Pullman Colonist Sleeper Leaflet. E. L.

Last Wednesday Carl Reinke moved his household goods to the city, via the school house. Ue will probably spend the remainder of his life in your city. He was a good farmer, and will make a worthy townsman in his declining years. Captain Brown, the old-time grange organizer of Colfax county, passed here Thursday on his way to the city. The captain said he encountered one mile of road east of here that had not been traveled since the great snow, and which nearly stranded his little snow cutter. Now put your rubber boots in order and 6ee ihat your boat i properly calked. A man who has accumulated a good hare of this world's goods by farming in Nebraska, tells us we will have grass three weeks earlier this yean than last; he claims it is in the right condition to spring up with a vigorous growth as soon as this blanket of snow and ice is removed. From Galva, 111., we learn that Mrs. Al. Dack of Oconee arrived at the for mer place last week and with her family is now in the full enjoyment of the measles. Mr. Dack is happy in the em ploy of the Hayse works and will make his home in Galva. Now since Mr. and Mrs. J. IL Reed have moved from our midst, we miss their real value. They had the true spirit of friends and neighlwra, and we frequently went to them for counsel, which was well worth heediug. That they may soon regain lost health and speedily return to their old home among us is the wish of your humble scribe.

'How fast time flies!" Spring is not far off. One fine day, for two that are stormy. Mike Conners took a load of hogs to Columbus Saturday. Little Mandy Marshall was taken down Friday evening with a severe sore throat. The farmers of this district are now ready to commence their spring work, but they don't. John Marshall was visiting his sister, Mrs. Abart, near Schuyler part of last week. George Lewis, while hauling hay from south of the Wells' farm Thursday, had the misfortune of his load stopping while the tongue and whipple-trees went on. The Marshall Bros, have purchased three hundred bushels of corn from Mr. Binder for which they paid 45 cents per bushel. John Hoagland (Texas Jack) has been stopping with Mr. Grover the two past weeks. He tells us this is his favorite road while the overland route is impas sible. The lyceutn of Feb. 25th was post poned until the 4th of this month, at which time it was a grand success. The program was lengthy and well carried out, opened with a song by the circle and followed by several declamations. After recess there was a tableau, follow ed by a dialogue, after which the paper was read. The debate was carried over until the 18th owing to the absence of the two chief disputants. One of our close observers and an old settler of this district, tells us that ow ing to the deep snow, we will see Platte river spreading over more ground this spring than for several years. The river was lower last fall and fore part of the winter than it had been for some time, but for the past month the water has been raising and running over the ice. June Bco. Microcosm. The winter still continues to be open. One of the esteemed young men of our neighborhood contemplates matrimony in the near future of this month. Arnold Abts accompanied by Miss Arnie and Miss Hitch of Columbus, made a pleasant call on Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Reed Sunday afternoon. Otis Clark was busy hauling corn to the city last week, for which he received a good price. Mrs. Michael Erb was very sick last week, but under Dr. Willy's skilful care, is improving. Henry Loseke, who lives north of Shell Creek pays 35 a ton for hay in the stack and hauls it ten miles to feed. A stack of hay at the Hogan sale brought at the rate of $10.75 per ton. Those that have hay and other feed should be very saving of it, as there will be a very great scarcity; also very high price. Johnnie Griffin went to Schuyler Tuesday morning. He has secured a place on a farm near there. Mr. James Salmon of Columbus paid Mr. and Mrs. Jene Nichols a visit Thurs day. We understand that Dick Jenkinson of your city will work the old Wolfel farm the coming season. Tommie Johnson was able to be in the city Saturday. James Griffin will assist J. H. Reed & Son on their farm this coming year. Owing to the severe weather, and .the depth of the "beautiful," the Beed Al liance have been unable to hold their regular meetings for the past six weeks.
