A neuko brute in human guiso was
'summarily dealt with by a mob in Ox

from the jail and hanged, which he
..richly deserved, and, if-lynch law is ever

this case.
It is now given out that the supremo

Judge Botkix, of Seward county, Ks.,
was on top at last accounts, and opened
court with a Winchester rille beside him
and two revolvers in his belt. Ho de

It is thought that Sloan, the Wash
ington xjounty murderer, is at last run

has been received, at Fremont that Sloan
was discovered and recognized at Et.
Benton, Mont., where he had enlisted in
the United States army. Ho is now said
to be under arrest' and will soon be at
the scene of his .crimes.
The heavy frosts of December were
very destructive to tho fruit crop in
California, and the trees in the San
Gabriel valley and around Riverside
were badly damaged No accurate esti
mate can be made of the damage, but
pnef authority places the reduction" in
the citron crop at over 50 per cent, and
- some .estimate the loss in dollars to be

The Coaaty Legialatare.
In the selection of chairman, North
made a little speech, to the effect that it
was customary fcr the successful -political
party to name the organizatiori,-and
he 'therefore proposed the. name of Mur
phy for 'Chairman. Byrnes-believed in
the principle of letting well enough
alone, and as the old chairman had given
good satisfaction tfie past year, had pre
sided impartially, and without reference
to poliUcs at all, hefavored Irwin. The
result was that Irwin got all the votes,
except his own and Mr. North's, and Mr.
Murphy will continue to hold a whip
hand on the floor.
Mr. Irwin, in. accepting, thanked the
board in-a very neat speech, closing by
saying that he would endeavor to be
fair and impartial; and that when he
made, mistakes he would be ready to
acknowledge them to the smallest child
in the county, which was morethah
some men would jdo. 'The little speech,
for some reason; met with the 'heartiest
cheers.
A resolution intended to instruct the
people with reference to having' their
lands or lots listed in bnlk, as much as
possible, as the. law directs maybe done
when owners so signify, was referred to ,
committee on judiciary. The. object of
the law is to lessen expense, to owners.
For instance, yon have a section of land
that can be described as one tract. The
custom has heretofore been to make of
it sixteen separate and distinct "3scrip
tions. If the taxes become delinquent,
there were sixteen descriptions instead
of one, and charges on the books ac
cordingly. Treasurer Lynch was granted .a dep
uty. ";-
Henry. T. Spoerry was appointed one
of the committee on soldiers' relief, in
place of A. W. Clark, whose term of
-office had expired. The other members
of the committee are W. J; Irwin and
James Burrows. We believe that it has
not been customary for the members of
this committee to make any charge for
their services. The appointment of
Comrade Spoerry is a commendable one.
John Browner was re-appointed on
brands and marks the chairman re
marking that he believed Mr. Browner
ought to have a life-lease on that office.
It was found, on inquiry, that none of
the banks had yet applied for the use of
the county money, as contemplated by
law.
Tho bids for furnishing supplies for
the county were opened and read
these were for furnishing blank books,,
the contract afterwards being let to the
Pestner Co. of Omaha; for blanks, to D.
F. Davis; for stationery, to Lincoln
Journal. Mr. Wintersteen, representing
the Lincoln Journal, made the state
ment that Festner had" no rocord in the
state as furnishing blank books other
than hotel registers. North made a
little speech saving that he had known
Mr. Festner for a good many years, also
Mr. Tschuck of tho company, who had
been well known throughout the state
before that young man (Wintersteen)
was born,- and when such men put in a
bid to do such' work he was satisfied
they knew what they were doing, and
would give the county as good a job as
the State Journal would or could,; and
he had nothing to say against them, be
cause thoir work was well known.
As tr the newspaper work, the two.
democratic papers, the Telegram and
the Humphrey Democrat, put. in a com
bination bid, .saying in substance .that
former boards had asked the newspapers
forbids, and then, without reference to
who was the lowest, had let the con
tracts, and to test the sincerity of this
board, they would proffer to do the
printing for one-tenth the legal rates.
On road notices and the like, this would
be, say,. one cent a line the first issue
and a half-cent each subsequent issue.
On delinquent tax-list, two cents each
description of land, and one cent each
description of town lots. On supervis
ors' proceedings, .003 "-j cents a line.
The Argus had given a statement in
regard to its circulation, and asked to be
named as one of the official papers at
such reasonable compensation as the
board might name. The Journal's bid
was one-third; the Woehenbatt's one
third. There were no other bids, and
we presume that an equal division of
one. full legal rate among the five papers
nanied would have given satisfaction to
the general public, bnt the board de
termined to let the contract to the two
democratic- newspapers, not, however,
without proffering the same rate to the
other papers bidding, which was re
spectfully -declined by them.
Charles Wake and John Elliott put in
propositions to do janitor work at the
court house, but when Sheriff Kavan
augh and Supr. North got in their
work, the two old men were nowhere in
sight, and the board are to fix the duties
of janitor, and Sheriff Eavanangh is to
do the work for $150 a year, and see
'that a man sleeps in the building be
sides. Kayanangh and North can have
and do have their little differences in.
democratic conventions, but when it
comes, to the distribution of the public
patronage they can hunt together very
effectually.
Treasurer-elect Lynch asked to be
excused from longer serving as expert.
Granted.
H,-J. Arnold becomes the county phy
sician at $50 a. year.
Sheriff Kavanaugh's application for
house rent as jailor at $12.50 a month
was allowed.
There was considerable interest arous
ed. over certain bills. of ex-Sheriff Cald
well, and not a little feeling-was mani
fested, before the discussion was over.
Dr.- Heintz, coroner, was called in -to
answer inquiries as to whether he had
refused to hold certain inquests. He
stated very plainly and decisively that
he had not .refused, and that this was
not the first time, that ex-Sheriff Cald
well had assumed to act as coroner. In
the discussion,' North quoted -a provis
ion of the statutes requiring officials to
present-report of fees, etc., and said that
he had been infqrmedthat theex-aheriff
had not complied with that provision of
thelav. , and that, so far. as he was con
cerned, he was not in 'favor of allowing'
any of his bills until he had 'complied
with the law in this particular;
Resolutions of .respect to the 'memory
of J.P.Becker, deceased.- were offm-ad
'by North and adop'ted.
Board adjourned to March 15th.

There is a well on the farm of J. S.
Conrad a short distance from Fremont
that is attracting consideablo attention
among the people in that vicinity. The
well in question is a bored one with a
diameter of about a foot and is about
142 feet deep, and the strange part of it
is that it spouts cold air in place of
water, the air rushing out at times with
a noise like escaping steam. The atmos

the strongest when the weather is cold
and by means of it it can usually be told
a day ahead when there will be a cold

From oar regular correspondent.
The president is not worrying himself
about the cyclone of bills which have
been introduced in the house by the
democrats, lie Knows, as do tne au
thors of these bills, that there is not
even a slight probability that any bill
repealing or hampering the proper ad
ministration of any law enacted by the
Fifty-first. congress will become a law.
during the life .of the Fifty-second con
gress; ana there is no doubt that he, in
common with other republicans, has
been amused to see the antics of the
leaderless majority in the' bouse.- The
president is going right ahead preparinjr
his proclamation of retaliation, a warn
ing which has. been given the countries
interested, against those countries which
.have neglected to negotiate reciprocity
agreements with us, just as though, Rep
resentative Andrew bad not introduced
a bill. repealing the .clause of the reei-.
procity'law phich -gives the president'
this authority.9 The proclamation will
be issued onthe ,15th of March, and will
restore the", duty which existed before
the McKinley tariff law went into effect,
upon sugar, molasses, ooffee, tea and
hides from those countries.
The fact is regarded as significant by
the Cleveland democrats that .Senator
Hill-has already become a crony of Sen
ator Gorman's. It' has -convinced them
'of the truth of the rumored combination
between these two men to control the
democratic presidential .nomination:
And it effectually disposes'of the .'silly
billy talk about Gorman boinglqfB
land's friend. In tart.there are not
three democratic senators who can be
really called friends of. Cleveland, and
yet 'they may all be compelled, by cir
cumstances' to swallow their dislike and
support him for president But "if
trickery can prevent' Cleveland's nomi
natiod, Hill and Gorman will succebu-in
doing.it . -. . . . .. ' -."There
art,' said a member of "the-
house committee, on patents, iots of in
equalities in our law system. If a thief
is detected 'stealing my 'pocket '.booky
containing only a few dollars. I can have
the satisfaction of seeing him sent to
prison.for.it; but 'if an irresponsible
thief financially irresponsible I mean
steals my idea, represented in a patent
ed invention, no matter how valuable it
may be, my only'redreas is to sue him
for damages, knowing beforehand, that
the judgment will not be worth the
paper.it is'.written on. .This ought to be
changed and I am glad to see a growing
sentiment in favbr.of making the patent'
thief amenable to the same daw as the
other thieves. I -hope to see it done at
the present sessionir
ThU big democratic majority in the
house is already beginning to flounder
around helplessly for lack of a co'm'pe-
tent' leader. Mil's has'waahed hie hands
of the whole business and gone home to'
work for the senatorship, an'd before he
left he made no secret of his disgust .at
the outlook for his party. Crisp is .still
confined to. his room, and there is too
much rivalry between such men -am
Springer and Holman to admit of either
of .them being accepted as 'leader. .-The
only thing that '"the democrats' are cer
tain of ia that they are opposed to 'ap
propriations for any purpose. Many of
them are clamoring for, a caucus, but the.
older heads fear to call one until they
know- the intentions of tho new members
a Utile better. Springer's positive
statement, that no free silver bill wili.be
passed by the "house has raised, a ram

silver are resenting it as an unwarrant

That the soil of Nebraska is well ad
apted to the raising of tobacco is no
longer a question, but a well established
fact, and if the formers would take to
the cuHivtion of this weed, they would
find it very, profitable, and the state'
would soon realize a revenue of many
thousands of dollars annually from this
industry alone..
The. Tobacco Growers' Guide says':
"One ounce of seed will sow a bed sixty
feet long and five 'feet wide, and, with
good care, this will furnish 20,000 plants
which will plant a three-acre 'field ' It'
is an excellent fault to have plenty of
plants when setting commences, so most
dealers count not less than an ounce of
'seed for every two acres planted. Some
even buy more.than this. A perfectly
safe estimate .would be two ounces for
every three.acresof ground."
The -First -National bank of this city
will furnish seed, free, to .all who wish
to try the culture of this tobacco plant.
They will also furnish books and pam
plets treating on the. raising, caring and
handling of tobacco.

We want every mother to know that
croup can be prevented. True croup
never appears without a warning. The
first symptom is hoarseness; then the
child appears to have taten a cold or a
cold may have accompanied the hoarse
ness from the start. After that a pe
culiar rough cough is developed, which
is followed by the croup. The time to
act is when the child first becomes
hoarse; a few doses of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy will prevent the attack.
Even after a rough cough has appoared
the disease may bo prevented by using
this remedy as directed. It has never
been known to fail. 25 cent, 50 cent
