For July, the following customers
of Stevenson's separator in Grand
Prairie were paid the respective sums
named, for cream furnished during the
month, it making an average of about
$3 a month for each cow:
Henry Hellbaeh $M 7
I At JXBUUBoU 4
J Xl aOUD(bh9u Of "
! UcnpU bo v
X j M"B0B 19
The business done at the separator
for the month amounted to about $900,
while that of the creamery here was
$8500. These are goodly sums of money
distributed among farmers money
from abroad, brought here to make im
provements on Platte county farms.
What our country needs is more fac
tories to work up our raw products, and
thus give us a full equivalent for our
work. The farmers who patronize the
separator are getting interested in the
money-making features of it They are
buying more pasture, selling their
steers, and considering the many ways
in which they can increase their busi
ness. A steady income of $60 to $100
cash a month for this one item of the
farm is a good nucleus for provident
ideas.
John Wiggins, in his sojourn over
the country, struck the farm of Law
rence Kujawa one day last week, four
miles west of the city. He found there
a sight for old eyes a veritable apple
orchard with trees heavily laden with
good fruit His oldest apple tree is
twenty-three years old. Most of his
trees were purchased of Mr. Kinnan of
Polk county, and he says he must get
more of him. One tree, set out in W,
the body of which is an inch and a half
in diameter, is bearing thirty-eight ap
ples; another very young tree has on it
five apples; besides these, Mr. K. has
pear and plum trees in thrifty condition.
He has apples to spare, bringing some to
town for sale. His fruit trees, it seems.
didnt bear until he chopped down a line
of cottonwood trees on the west aide
that had been plaoed there for protec
tion. The worst thing he has had to
contend against is the hot son, shown by
a blight on the south half of the bodies
of the trees. He now lets the suckers
that come grow up as a protection to
the trunks of the trees. It is no wonder
that Wiggins was enthusiastic over the
sight of a good apple orchard.

It seems that the state agent of this
concern is still at work, at least we are
told that they have such an agent We
called at Ed. J. Niewohner's place Fri
day to ascertain from him something of
their transactions here. Mr. N. was
their local agent"here until he found out
that they were not all right aQd then he
quit them, instanter. He says they beat
him out of $150. There were some
thirty persons here who were promised
loans, but not a single loan has been
made in the state, so far as heard from;
and the company has taken out proba
bly $25,000. About $500 of that sum
has been paid in here, by men who can
illy afford to lose it out of their earn
ings. Mr: Niewohner tells us that, after
he became satisfied of their meanness,
he wrote them that if they could not or
would not comply with the law and their
promise to certificate holders, he should
withhold the last payments and return
them to certificate holders. Not hear
ing from them, he did return the money.
The counsel of The Joubnai. still holds
good: Have nothing to do with outside
loan and building associations, unless
you fciiotp they are all right ' Something
less than a hundred of our citizens .are

committee on resolutions and made their
report which was adopted unanimous
ly, without debate. The report re-affirmed
the Cincinnati platform, con
demned Boyd for vetoing the Newberry
bill and endorsed alliance principles
generally.
The first proposition of more than or
dinary interest was that of Dodds to bar
from nomination any man who did not
vote the independent ticket last fail,
but after considerable debate it was de
cided to modify this by having all ap
plicants for nomination sign the declara
tion of principles.
For co. clerk, J.C. Swartsley was nom
inated as against Fred. Jewell, by a vote
of GO to 49.
For treasurer, John E. Dack of Monroe
was nominated as against C. C. Carrig,
by a vote of 68 to 40.
For sheriff, John P. Johnson of Wal
ker was selected on the fourth ballot,
the vote standing: Johnson 60, Thoma
zin 31, Lisco 19.
For county supt, the vote was 59 for
P. W. Hess and 43 for E. J. Couch, and
the former was declared the nominee.
For county judge, the candidates were
Wooeley, Gibbon and Brindley. On the
third ballot John Gibbon was nomina
ted, the vote standing 63 for him and 36
for Brindley.
For clerk of the district court, there
were numerous candidates Carr, Wil
son, Schmoker, Kearville and Burrows.
On the third ballot Carr's vote stood 69
to Kearville's 40, and Carr thanked the
convention.
For surveyor, A. C. Pickett was nomi
nated by acclamation.
Saunders was put on the tail of the
ticket for coroner, he receiving 48 votes
to 25 for Bixby and 21 for Okay.
The delegates chosen to the state con
vention were R. B. Thompson, J. O.
Blodgett C. B. Campbell, C. J. Carrig,
Pat Fahey, E, J. Couch, Evan Evans, M.

whose remarks were very enthusiastical
ly received by the convention.
Tbe Columbus Cornet Band added
greatly to the enjoymeat'of delegates,
by their splendid music.
The opera house was decorated with
flags and appropriate mottoes.
It is safe to say that the independent
party will cut quite a figure in the com

unusual strenght, except for the num

stand back of it

quietly, humbly and unpretendingly on
their farms, men st whose feet some of
the eastern swells might be glad to sit
and learn practical sound common sense
and the first principles of true wisdom.
- Now Mr. Editor, the writer, not pre
tending nor claiming to be a learned
man, is always anxious to be a learning
man. Hence his questions, which may
also interest others.
''I.' la electricity ah element existing,
say in the universe, in unlimited quan
tity? 2. Is electric power manufactured or
employed by men for mechanical pur
poses, for lighting, for motion, etc.,
identical with that in the air, showing
itself in lightning, for instance?
3. Is it created, as it were, in those
institutions from which it is obtained
for such purposes, or is it the product
of combinations of different elements, or
isit the same as natural electricity (so
to speak) and only drawn to our earth
from that existing in the universe?
' 4. Has'the employment of so much
'electricity in our day anything to do
with -the- unusually- frequent' and de
structive thunder storms visiting us in
.our time, and seemingly in all countries?
. - 5. I will add a question to inventors.
It is well known that ice is manufac
tured artificially in large quantities who
will make a fortune by inventing a pro
cess and apparatus to manufacture it in
small quantities for private parties, for
hotels, "business men and families, an
apparatus obtainable even by the poor
man?
