Lee, infant 6on of Tom Daniel, has been very low with bowel complaint the past week, but under the skillful care of Dr. Arnold, is improving. M. Wntkins was thrown from his horse Sunday. Although not seriously hurt he was considerably shaken up, but will soon be around again. We learn from the Colfax connty papers that F. J. Preiss's store at Leigh was closed last week by the sheriff. Mr. Preiss was hi the time in Omaha. John TTise, one of the best men in the connty, has been Rjioken of as a can didate for county judge. John would make a good one, and no mistake. One of the finest-looking, large cows (1:500 lira.) was standing in front of Matty's last Thnrsday. He had bought it of W. H. Lewis. It was part Jersey.

The old settlers meet thiB afternoon at Speice & North's office to effect a per manent organization. Those who came to Platte county before June 1, 1851, are to le considered "old settlers," for the purjioses of this organization. We learn that the Woman's Relief Corps of Baker Post, will be presented with a handsome tlag, donations for the purchaso of which were made by E. D. Fitzpatrick $3, J. W. Judkins &!, J. P. Becker SI, George Lehman SI. William Knights and family came here recently from Nemaha county. One child is very sick with diphtheria, and they have b tn quarantined in the south ern part of ihe city. The authorities are to be commended for their promptness in this matter. The Grand Pacific Hotel, corner of Olive and Tenth streets, is now open for the accommodation of the public, J. W. Judkins, proprietor. The house has been thoroughly overhauled and refitted, and will be conducted in first-class style in every respect. tf I have just received some private funds to loan upon improved farms for three or five years, borrower to have privilege of paying off from 3100 to $500 on loan at end of any year, thus reduc ing principal and interest Call imme diately.

Hauter has purchased Mr. Thomas's stock of tonaorial materials and with that and his own former stock has removed to the Phillips building on Eleventh street, recently occupied by Mr. Fuller. This he will occupy until Gluck's new brick block is completed, when he will remove to the fine room in it. I herewith respectfully inform the inhabitants of Columbus and vicinity that I have taken charge of the office heretofore occupied by Dr. Kempter, where I am prepared to give careful at tention to all operations in surgical and mechanical dentistry, and will endeavor to give satisfaction to all who may favor me with their patronage. E. H. Nau nian. D. D. S. C. B. Whit mover was examined Saturday for a first grade teacher's cer tificate, by Connty Superintendent L. J. Cramer. As Mr. W. is a talented young man, industrious and ambitious, he suc ceeded in his endeavor not very many first grade certificates are applied for, and it is quite an honor for a young man or woman to be justly entitled to receive such a certificate. Mr. Gondring is not a member of the city council's committee on printing; this was a mistake of the writer's in last week's Joubkal. In our very hasty reading of the Telegram's bid we thought Davis had so made it as to take in the full rate for one publication in dairy and weekly. In this it appears that we were mistaken. It was two-thirds. If Davis would come within one-third of the ex act truth, even one-tenth of the time, he might be partially excused in calling other people liars once in five or six years. The child of Mr. McKnight's af flicted with diphtheria was buried yes terday. It is but just to say that the family moved to where they now are without the knowledge of Mayor Ragatz at all, and of course, without his direc tion. No others of them are sick; the funeral was private, and the family re turned at once to the house, which has been thoroughly disinfected since the death. Everything has been done that can be to prevent the spread of the dis ease, since the knowledge of its presence came to the mayor, and for this he is en titled to the hearty thanks of all citizens. Children Cry for Pitcher's Cattorla. Miss Annie Hamer has been selected to teach the primary department of the second ward school, in place of Miss Addie Ransdell, resigned. Miss Clara Wheeler takes charge of the rural school of the district near Mr. Heed's, where Miss Hamer has -been teaching. We suppose that MissBansdeH's resignation was dne to the fact that she had been censured by the board for a rather severe chastisement of one of her pupils. Outside of the matter of punishment (and this, as far as we know, only in the past two years), she has had an enviable reputation as a teacher, and most cer tainly deserved it well. It can no donbt lie truthfully said, too, that hers is not the only case of severe chastise ment on the part of teachers of the city; it may lie the only case where a com plaint on the part of a parent has reached the board, and an investigation pressed. Parents are too loth to enter complaint when the bounds of propriety are overstepped, and, generally speak ing, it is only when they keenly feel the outrage that they will go to the board of education. Even then, some prefer (and as we have lieen informed) have kept their children from school, rather than have the worry and annoyance of making a public matter of it. We are in receipt of a copy of the National City (Calif.) Record of May 7, for which we are indebted to George B. Smith. In looking over it we fine these references to former Columbus friends: "On Saturday, May 2d, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Deford was the scene of a very pleasant informal gathering. It happened in the manuer of a bona fide surprise on Mrs. Stenger, mother of Mrs. Deford, in honor of her sixtieth birth day. Between thirty and forty of her neighbors and well-wishers dropped in during the afternoon and evening, as fancy or convenience dictated; all en joying the animated conversation, as well as the light refreshments which Mrs. Deford had so deftly smuggled into the house. Various presents also found their way in, to remain as "loving wit nesses," a constant reminder to Mrs. Stenger of the many friends she has made in National .City." Lorenzo 1). Clark last week closed a sale for seventy acres of land which will bring to this county three wealthy fam ilies from Helena, Montana. Before leaving they made arrangements to plant the whole seventy acres to lemons. The same paper also contains an ac count of nn interview with some of the officers of the "Itata," the insurgent ves sel from Chili. The St. Paul Fire and Marine Ins. Co. is now prepared to insure crops against loss by hail through J. D. Stires, agent. The honorable and prompt set tlement of all losses by this company, wherever it has accepted risks, with a capital and surplus of nearly one and a quarter million dollars and total assets of nearly two millions are ample guar antee that it will continue to deserve your iatronage. It has paid losses in Boone county alone the Kist two years to the amount of $2,4G0.50 and given en tire satisfaction. Every farmer can af ford to insure, but few can afford to lose this crop. Get a policy of J. D. Stires, agent, office over State Bank, Columbus. Suggestion is one of the most power ful principles in human action, and out of this comes the great value of com panionship of every kind, association, reading, etc. Suggestion, attention and recollection of what you have seen, heard, felt or read, then a will to shun the evil and cling to the good, and here comes the practical value of the news paper. Casualties happen that with a little more attention, or precaution of some sort, might have been avoided and precious lives saved. A record is made of them, and the suggestions become valuable beyond calculation, to hun dreds and thousands of people. Henry Ragatz & Co. began the re moval of their large grocery stock at three o'clock Monday morning, and hav ing only a short distance to move and a goodly number of helpers, the work was comploted by eight o'clock, a. m., and everything soon ready for businees again, as usual. This firm has, by strict atten tion to business, careful buying of stock and fair treatment, gained favor with their customers, and the handsome new quarters shortly to be prepared for them, will enable them to still more satisfacto rily transact their increasing business. Give them a call when in need of any thing in their line. In a letter from our old friend J. J. Judd, he adds after the bustuesa part of it: "We still live in the sunny south (Luella, Ga.,) and think we will till this fall; then will go for the north. I think sometimes we will come to the old home in Nebraska. I am disappointed in this state; will have a short crop of fruit this year; again the peach crop nearly a fail ure; it has been very dry till now. We had six weeks of dry weather, but cotton and corn are looking good. Corn is worth SI. 25 now, and Irish potatoes $2.25 a bushel." Come back, there is plenty of room and a very hearty wel come. Hon. Guy C. Barnum, one of the old settlers of Platte connty, a farmer, and a man of far more than ordinary good judgment, is spoken of for sheriff of Platte count'. We have not learned whether he is or is not the preferred candidate of the alliance men of this section of the county, but if Mr. Barnum should determine to enter the race for the nomination, he will make it lively for some one. F. A. Gatz and family came down from O'Neill, Holt county, Friday, and visited with relatives till Monday, re turning home that day. Mr. G. has prospered considerably in this world's goods since he left Columbus. He is engaged in the meat and ice business, and just now, in addition? is erecting a hotel, for rent. He thought Columbus had improved a great deal since he was here last. The Platte connty politicians who are figuring just now must not loose sight of the fact that there is a man among them who don't make much noise, who hasn't feathered his own nest by office, who has hosts of very warm friends in the county, and who will, when the time comes, be able to show them as clean a pair of heels as there'll be on the race track. The following combination was con sidered quite a puzzle by your fore fathers, but the smallest boy in Miss Bice's room would have little trouble in reading it: Stand Take 2' Taking Throw My PERSONAL. R. H. Henry went to Omaha Monday. Tom Cain of Genoa is in town this week. W. E. Walton of Genoa was in town Saturday. Ed. Polley of Seward was visiting here Friday. Hon. Loran Clark of Albion Sundayed in Columbus. J. M. Macfarland of Omaha was in the city Saturday. Dr. R. A. Kempter left Friday for Al ma, Wisconsin. Hon. B. R. Cowdery or Lincoln is in the city this week. S. O. Raymond and George Turner went to Fnllerton Friday. Miss Addie Ransdell left Monday for her home in Warnersville. R. A. Taylor of Silver Creek was in town Thnrsday on business. G. W. Hnlst of Rapid City, a D., is visiting relatives in the city. J. W. Tanner of the Fullerton Post was a Columbus visitor Saturday. Willis E. Cook was in town Monday to make final proof on his homestead. John I. Paynter of Omaha has been visiting with his daughter,. Mrs. O. L. Baker. W. S. Howell, traveling agent for the Chicago &. Milwaukee Railway was in the city Monday. Miss Clara Weaver, one of Platte county's bright young lady teachers, spent Sunday at home. James Haney returned yesterday from a trip into Greeley connty. He says the country is dry up there. W. H. Patterson of Guthrie Center, Iowa, who is visiting friends at Creston, was in the city Friday and gave us a pleasant call. Prof. P. W. Hess, principal of the pub lic schools of Platte Center, was in the city Saturday, and gave this office a pleasant call on business. Mrs. O. II. Archer left Sunday for Carlton, Wyo., her future residence; she will have good wishes of a host of friends for the future welfare of herself and husband. C. E. Rickly and Fred. Hoyt, his brother-in-law and partner, have sold out their interests at Rushville and were in the city last week, en route to Utah, where they expect to locate. T. C. Thurston, special executive agent of the N. Y. Central Life Insurance Co., and Charles Bal lance, agent for Nebras ka, were in the city Thursday. Mr. Thurston is a cousin of John M., and evidently has some of the family quali ties of his illustrious kinsman. Win. Terrell returned Thursday from a sojourn of several monthB in the west. He returned by way of Denver. We learn from him that D. A. Lord is looking well, also Dr. Elmer Sheets, the latter of whom has sold his restaurant and is practicing medicine exclusively now; Joe. Elliott has made some suc cessful deals in real estate recently; Lute Jewell is a detective; Wra. Rout son, who had been in the mountains with a mining company, has returned to Denver and is in the laundry business; Alvin Coan is conductor on a cable car line; Marshall Smith has' sold his gro cery, and is now a soliciting agent; Frank Smith, who owns a farm in Cal ifornia, had recently written for Mrs. Drake, to take care of his wife, who six weeks ago was very ill; Byron Millett is located at Portland and has recently in vested in some lots in Olympia. Of former Columbus people at Tacouut, he mentions M. H. White and George Wan del as in partnership, having two har ness stores, both doing a good business, and Dave Mowery is helping Wandel in one of them; Dr. Schug has a clerical position in a treasurer's office, and is also practicing medicine, and getting along nicely; Ed. Palm, a former car penter here lives there; also the Wal graf brothers, formerly in business here, John is foreman for a company engaged in erecting buildings and is doing very well; at La Connor, a town of about five hundred inhabitants, they have an en terprising community, some general merchandise stores carrying stocks of thirty to fifty thousand dollars, and one of their chief business men is reputed to be worth half a million. Maynard Hurd is located here, and though a young lawyer, he gaiued notoriety almost im mediately upon his arrival by the man ner in which he conducted a case in court, and has been by his own energy and ability, steadily gaining in prestige and business ever since; Mrs. Annie Paulsen (nee Lnth) lives here, married about six weeks ago to Mr. Nela Paul sen, a good business man of the city; Miss Mary Brownlow, a former teacher in this county, also lives at La Connor. Asa Clotber is at Mt. Vernon, Washing ton, where he has a brother, Henry, a prominent citizen. Mr. Terrell thinks it a great country around the sound, but too wet for him; as near as he could learn it is about nine months of the twelve wet, raining or drizzling or cloudy and getting ready to rain, and the other three months summer; it has the finest timber he ever saw it is not an uncommon thing to have trees that will furnish a piece of timber a hundred feet long and twenty inches square; it is too cold to grow corn, or vegetables so tender as cucumbers; the breezes off the ocean are cool, and striking the moun tains the moisture is precipitated in rain; at La Connor the rainfall is sixty-eight inches a year, and at some other places on the sound much more. That is an agricultural country. On many pieces of land they have raised 100 to 150 bushels of oats, for which last year they received 65 cents a bushel. Such land is worth $100 to $300 an acre. Near Tacoma and Seattle there are a good many hop fields, and that product is re garded as profitable. The alliance and the democratic elements are beginning to form tickets for the coming campaign, but we haven't heard of any republican slate as yet, We think we can see indications, here, there and yonder, that there are some democrats and some so-called alliance men, probable candidates, that are pretty "thick" for political opponents having separate, distinct, different and inharmonious objects. It has not been a very uncommon thing in Platte county politics to see men of differing political creeds "work" their several parties for their own individual benefit It nay be don tbia year. It is being don today. Joka DMea Satariay. The great dialect comedian is to be here next Saturday evening, May 23. , Everybody has heard of him, but not many Columbus or Platte county people have seen him. If yon dont bear htm, you will miss a rare treat. An excursion train will be run between Humphrey and Columbus, reaching here a half hour before the entertainment opens and leaving a half hoar after it closes, at one and one-third regular fare one way, for the round trip, from the several stations, leaving Humphrey at 6:45 p. m., Platte Center 7:10, Oconee 7:25, arriving in Columbus 7:45. The play Wanted the Earth, needs to be seen as rendered by Dillon as the star performer, to be appreciated. Am te SMrwalkn, Etc. A little paragraph in last week's Journal has roused two men to the ex pression of at least a portion of their views. Numbf.rOxe. Ed. Journal, Dear Sir; "Enclosed clipping from a Columbus paper, please hand to the very witty writer of the rather slanderous little article in your last Journal, regarding my sidewalk, and ask him to put this in his pipe, and smoke it. By the way, I regard these everlasting broken wooden walks as a nuisance and my cinder walk far superior to any of them. True, it costs me already a trifle more than a wooden one would, and will cost me more yet before it is quite finished, but then it will alwajB be in good repair, accidents as the one men tioned in the clipping will be impossible and the walk will look neater than the common ones." Very respectfully yours, Lropolu Jooi. "Little Eva Loshbangh while walk ing along on south Olive street yester day caught her foot in a break in the walk and nearly broke it. The Telegram has repeatedly mentioned the subject of defective sidewalks but it seems that there are still many that need repairing and all such should be attended to at once, before some one has cause to bring a suit for damages on account of a broken leg or arm." Number Two. Ed. Journal: I want to say that I never was instructed to put down a board sidewalk. If they want a better sidewalk let them say so. I think mine is lietter than the sidewalk in block 96, built by the city, and also in lietter shape for people who use sidewalks than the same walk further along up town near your own office, where there is a pair of scales and an electric light pole. My walk is up to grade, but I want to put a little more onto it, so that when thoroughly packed it will be just right. Some people can see some things, but can't see others. Do yon know that there is a place in the city where a por tion of the street is planted to trees and another portion of it used as a potato patch? One man, laughing, wants to know if Uncle John Elliott, street com missioner, is to have a share in those potatoes. Wm. Dietrich. The Journal is very sorry to think that either of these men should take the least umbrage at what was said. The Journal has a cement sidewalk which cost about three times what a plank one wonld have cost, but is practically per petual, so far as wear is concerned. Even in our poverty, we would be strongly inclined to do the same thing again, especially if we had another busi ness house to provide for. We much prefer the solid sidewalk, even for resi dence property, where it is to be placed permanently, and don't cost too much. In conclusion, gentlemen, one of you (Mr. Jaeggi), has given us some infor mation (mental pabulum), which by feeding upon (thinking over), people generally can profit thereby, and the city have better sidewalks in every re spect than boards. The Journal is al ways in favor of new-fangled things when they sre clearly an improvement upon the old-fangled. Memorial Pay. Saturday, May 30th, is Memorial Day for this year. Baker Post No. 9 has been making preparations for the occasion, and has been ably seconded by the Women's Relief Corps, who for the first time take part here, in the services. The full program has not yet been completed, but will be announced in our next issue. The Post, with W. R. C, Sons and Daughters of Veterans, and all old sol diers of the late war, will meet at G. A. R. hall at 1 o'clock and proceed to the opera house where the exercises will be held, Col. M. Whitmoyer delivering an oration; Mrs. O. D. Butler, an essay upon the services, sacrifices and heroism of the women in the late war; tribute to the unknown dead by RL Rossiter; songs and recitations provided by the W.R.C. Weknow that Baker Post would lie exceedingly well pleased if the hundreds of soldiers in this section of the state could be present and participate. TliMA anil the nuhlic ironerallv are v wvi;fillv invitjwl in atTAml ""' """ "" T. Platte county politicians must con- sider that the campaign immediately in fpnnt will linva oavapal nnnililinna tVtltttr. ent from any of its predecessors, and the elements are now at work on plans, Right here is where the great body of the people have missed it, time and again. They let the other fellows, the schemers, do all the planning, and when the conventions open everything is cut, dried and ready to kindle, and, generally speaking, the feast goes on without ques tion. The proper thing is to do some planning yourself. Consider whether yon desire such and such a man for this or that office, and if you do not, select a man you believe to be good and availa ble, and seek to have him nominated. If you can, possibly, upset the plans of those you know that work against the public interest. Do some planning your- aelf. C. I. S. C. Program.
