The result of the special investigation by the doctors of the Philadelphia uni versity veterinary school on the subject of lumpy jaw, common to cattle, has been made public. They find no case on record where the disease was trans mitted to man from eating diseased meat. The conclusion is reached, there fore, that where the lungs, liver and other organs are found not affected, it is probably safe to use the meat, and they see no reason why such meat should not be sold after proper inspection. Some correspondent has stated that Boss K. Hammond of- the Fremont Tribune has congressional aspirations, which leads 8 half dozen democratic papers in that district to declare that it will be a cold day when hie represents that district The Call believes the democratic papers are right. No news paper man with the courage of his Con viction who calls black black and wlute white should or can expect political preferment. In these days it' is the non committal, those who train their sails to accommodate the 'changing political breezes, who are brilliant in generalities and positive in nothing, those are .those whom all parties send, to the front while the fighting forces remain in the ranks. Lincoln Call. The study of human nature is the most profitable schooling men have for practical life, and the following para graph contains a sentiment that, prop erly made a living force, may change the whole course of life for some who read it: There is a capacity in every man and woman, though it may- often lie latent, to draw happiness .from life in its var ious phases; and his or her entire' wel fare depends very largely upon the degree to which this power exists. To lose faith in it is to be blown about at the mercy ot the winds and waves of life, and at last to be carried away by its current; but to feel it and exert it is to guide the helm and conquer tho storm, and bring the boat successfully intoDort. The man who does this is not the mere pleasure seeker." never get a single vote from Texas." .The Hill-Gorman -Brice-Tammany combination is ruling the democratic patty with a rod of iron, in spite of the squirming of the lackers. It owns the democratic national committee, as fully proven last week; it owns the speaker of the house, and it intends to dictate the presidential ticket, and the platform on which the 'democrats will make their na tional campaign this year. The democrats in the last Congress spent a goodly portion of- their time in denouncing the code of rules adopted by the republicans of the house, particular ly that portion of them which. curtailed the privilege of the majority to filibus ter indefinitely, and now they have in corporated in the rules they have prepar ed for the present house precisely the same idea, the only difference being that they delegate the authority to close the debate to the committee on rules, in stead of' to the Speaker. That some auch rule is, and has been necessary, in order to allow tho majority of 'the house to control, every fair minded man famil iar with congressional proceedings will concede, and in following the lead of the republicans the democrats have only done what they always do. They de nounce' everything originated by repub licans, and afterwards adopt the very things denounced, as their own. I farmers think of what they are sous? to doand when to commence it. Wo. Meayes, jr'ai, new house looks lonesome this beautiful weather. The lyceum here of last Wednesday night was a grand success; .as usual many more were present than could bo seated. We are sorry we have not a larger school houses the increased num ber ot scholars deserve one. James and Frank Marshall .have sold their last eighty of school land in,this school section to a farmer living west of Platte Center; they get halt stock and half cash.

Prairie fires have made hay scare among some of our neighbors, that would have had plenty. Almost everybody that farms this year can do more of it with less trouble than they could last year, by reason ot having plenty of feed in their barns.

A i-rrrLE philosophy occasionally is relished by the best of people, and the following bit is worth remembering: "Noble thoughts are apt to lead to noble deeds: evil thoughts to evil deeds; therefore we are in honor bound to suppress evil thoughts prompt ly and so firmly that they cannot again dawn within us.1' Which reminds of tho answer Lorenzo Dow once upon a time made to a man who asked him how he could keep bad thoughts out of his head. The wily preacher said: "You can't keep tho birds cf heaven from flying over your head, but you can pre vent them from making their nests in your hair." Monday afternoon, the U. S. supreme court rendered their decision in the Boyd-Thayer case declaring that all residents of Nebraska at the time the territory was admitted into the Union, became citizens; also that Boyd's taking out his final papers in 1890 carried the "contract" of citizenship back to the date of the original declaration of the governor's father in 1849, and made him a citizen from that time. Thus, prob ably, ends the most celebrated state case in the annals of the west. Bodies of people learn their political lessons, but often they pay very dearly for the schooling. Thayer's appointees will doubtless go pretty quick. The Platte Center Argus pleads for a system of book-keeping of the county expenses that will give tax payers an in sight into what it costs to run each de partment of the county government. In some of the eastern Btates the law re quires the publication in newspapers of the itemized bills paid, as for instance: Jan. 1, '92, To John Smith, Juror $2.50 This is done quarterly, so that all may see how every cent is expended and who is getting the money. Nebraska counties havo had experience enough in money losing and money-waste to induce them to adopt systems and ways of greater check than have ever yet beep in vogue, It should never be possible for a county treasurer, for instance, to be short in his accounts $40,000 and nobody but him self and deputy know it for several years. has the .-.V -.V . :2.'Z.' :?&&rtti.Vtete are abounding "--". : :.

Watson of Georgia, in a speech in the house of representatives at Wash ington, gives the following summary of the principles of the farmers' alliance party: "It demanded," he said, "that national banks should be abolished as banks of issue; that the coinage of silver should be made free and unlimited; that alien ownership of our lands should cease; that sepators should be elected by a direct vote of the people; that the government should issue the money to the people who needed it to perfect their exchanges practically free of cost, and that through the subtreasury plan, or some better, the people should have the privilege of the use of that money by giving such security as was in tho commercial world considered good. The people's party demanded a gradua ted income tax and that no man's busi ness should be built up at the expense of anotl r man. These were its princi ples, ad the toiling millions of the land w 3 looking to those nrincioles an thir only means of relief." World's Fair Notes. Theodore Thomas has been confirmed as musical director of the Exposition. Pueblo, Col., is raising money with which to equip and send to Chicago a "cowboy band." Ceylon has sent, through Sir Henry Wood, a request for space upon which to build a tea house. The far-off and heretofore thought wholly barbarous island ot Madagascar will have ap exhibit of its resources and products at the Exposition. .Commissioner McCormick writes from London that Mr. Armstrong will soon arrive in Chicago, his purpose being to present to the authorities of the Expo sition a project to reproduce the Tower of London. The monster Manufacture and Liberal Arts building requires more than 200 car loads of lumber, or 3,000,000 feet, for its flooring alone, and five car loads of nails to fasten it down. TLree electric 'saws are kept running night and day sawing and sizing the flooring. Twenty buildings the size of the Auditorium, or 1,000 houses 25 by 50, could stand on this mammoth floor. XEBUASKA NOTES. The alliance is to build a mill and elevator at York. The B. & M. road employs 6,700 hands and carried 1,875,748 passengers during 1891.

While repairing the water tower at Fairbury, the workmen found a hive of bees which had stored up 100 pounds of honey. Congressman Kern's farm in Custer county is without a tenant. The renter skipped between two days, and Kem is out considerable on some notes he had signed. The four packing houses at South Omaha slaughtered 1,265,219 hogs, 421, 968 cattle and 81,279 sheep, and paid out 928,000,000 during tho year 1891. They employed 3,400 men. The Kearney oat-meal mill commenced manufacturing Thursday. The mill is 40x50 feet, three stories high. Experts claim the machinery equals anything of its kind in the country. A saloon keeper of Boone county, having attacked the constitutionality of the Nebraska liquor law, carried his case to the supreme court, which last week handed down an opinion sustaining the statute. The preliminary examination of Emanuel Fist, deputy treasurer of Adams county, upon a charge of embez zlement of county funds to the amount of $29,000, was begun last week. Some sensational testimony is promised before the case is ended, B. C. Yuemaus, a detective formerly in the employ of the city of Lincoln, tes tified in a suit lately that he had re ceived $100 from the gamblers, but that it was for services he had rendered them before he had been employed by tho city as detective. That was a great sale of Poland-China hogs at the farm of Mre. A. M. Ed wards, near Fremont, last Wednesday. The highest price was for a sow, $225; the average, including young and old, littlo and big, was a little over 850. It was said to be the best herd in the world. The following paragraph going the rounds of the papers, shows how NeT braska fruit pleases other people.

True croup never appears without a warning. The first symptom is hoarseness; then the child appears to havo taxen 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.

It was asserted by members of that party that the treasury was becoming so depleted of cash that it would be necessary to so amend the McKinley law as to bring in a larger in come from customs duties, and to prove this assertion the Ways and Means com mittee adopted a resolution calling upon the Secretary of the Treasury to appear before it and declare the present and prospective condition of the treasury. Secretary Foster being .absent in search of health, Assistant Secretary Spaulding appeared before the committee, and by a short, business-like statement refuted every charge that the democrats had made so conclusively that they are prob ably sorry they adopted the 'resolution. He said that tha actual receipts of the government for the first six months of the present fiscal year were $174,151,000, and the expenditures $167,074,000 and that the estimated expenditures for the entire fiscal year were $336,000,000, or just $24,000,000 less than the estimated receipts $982,000,000. Besides, there is at present on hand'in cash $139,728,000, which added to the estimated surplus which will exist on the. 80th of June next, will give the treasury on that date a total surplus of $l5SJS9SflQO. Nothing very depleted about that treasury, eh? Mr. Mills has blood in his eye and it is bad Texas blood. He is still sore over his defeat, and he does not care a conti nental whe knows it. He intimates, and some of his hot-headed friends declare that he intends to lead a revolt against the Crisp gang when the first tariff bill is reported to the House from the Ways and Means committee.
