Mr. Newrcuy has again introduced
his famous railroad bill, the one which
undertakes to regulate railroad rates. It
did not become a law two years ago, but
tumbled down a governor. It will likely
cause considerable agitation before the
end of tho session.
Thessaivt is getting rid of field mice
by impregnating them with the bacillus
of a deadly disease, which affects the

Prof. Loefller, one of Koch's students, is
tho discoverer of this bacillus, which has
practically exterminated tho field mouse
of Thessaly, and saved tho crops from
what threatened to bo total destruction.
Banner county is tho latest to report
the discovery of a twenty-inch vein of
coal. What Nebraska needs is more coal
and less talk about coal discovery. If
all the veins "discovered" in the last
twenty years had been utilized Nebraska

tensive coal region, but the opportunity
of a life time has gone unimproved in
this respect.

He was in tho Biles building arranging

open, and stepped off in tho hole. He
fell heavily on the cement floor of the

escaped in the darkness.
The Nebraska State Fair association
has a balance on hand of $13,970.43.
They intend asking the state to appro
priate $30,000 for the purpose of build
ing a convention hall in Lincoln, in or
der that all state organizations can have
the use of it. Is this a square deal?
Are there not other cities in this state
where people can hold meetings and
conventions that are just as desirablo as
Lincoln? That appropriation should
.not be granted. It would not be fair to
the other cities. South Omaha Trib.
Ben. BdttjEB was probably as loyal
and patriotic a man as ever lived in the
United States. He was a little too
smart for his rebel enemies while living
and secured an enmity which tries to
reach him even beyond the grave, which
ought to "bury all resentments." The
Daily American of Nashville, Tennessee,
heads a leading editorial, "The Beast is
Dead," and speaks as follows of Butler.
The Joubnai. prints such a paragraph
only to show the unreasoning hate that
is still cherished by the rebel element
that would like to rule this country
through the solid south and a divided
north:
"Early yesterday morning the angel of
death, acting under the devil's orders,
took him from earth and landed him in
hell. In all this southern country there
are no tears, no sighs, and no regrets.
He lived only too long. We are glad
he has at last been removed from earth,
and even pity the devil the possession he
has secured. He was a truckling dema
gogue, whose selfishness amounted to
pollution. He was an autocrat who used
power to wreak personal revenge. He
was mean and malignant; a hangman
from prejudice; the insulter of women;
a braggadocio; a trickster, and a scoun
drel whose heart was as black as the
smoke from the coals that are now
scorching his soul."
TnERE is a project on foot to bring
New York city and cities and towns
adjacent, under one city government,
with a population of 3,000,000 under
control. What to do with tho great
cities? is the question for the American
patriot. Perhaps none of them in all
the country is governed by tho people
who pay the taxes and foot the bills,
but all domineered by the hoodlum ele
ment. Indeed in most cities the solid,
business men long since became dis
gusted with trying to have municipal
affairs conducted in a fair, common
sense and business-like way, and have
ceased to concern themselves further.
This plan must cease, and some effectual
method be adopted, or the cities will
become like powder-magazines in a con
flagration. Of course, the steady, sober,
common-sense of the common people is
political balance-wheel, but these well
meaning common people should find a
method of ruling the cities, so as to save
them from themselves.
Sebgeant-at-abms Valentine of the
senate has been sent out to Nebraska by
the republican "steering" committee
with tho hope that he may be able to
unlunqte the senatorial snarl in that
state ana bring about the election of a
republican senator. Mr. Valentino was
formerly a member or the house of rep
resentatives and upon his failure to be
re-elected Lib friends, Senators Mander
son and Paddock, succeeded in having
him elected sergeant-at-arms of tho sen
ate. He has an idea that he may havo
more strength in the Nebraska legisla
ture than either Senator Paddock or
John M. Thurston, both of whom are
struggling to get a majority of tho votes
by a combination with the populists.
Washington Dispatch to the Globe
Democrat. A DisPATcn to the daily papers from
Sacramento, California, bearing date of
January 12, says: "The grand jury today
indicted George B. Jeffries, the engineer,
now in jail on suspicion of having killed
Mrs. O. A. Ayers, tho Brighton station
agent. Tho indictment charges him with
the murder of Mrs. Ayers and with
bigamy for having married Mrs. Ayers
when he had a wife at Oakland." Mrs.
Ayers formerly lived at West Point, this
state.
Senator Carlisle has sent his resig
nation to the governor of Kentucky; he
is to enter tho Cleveland cabinet as sec
retary of the treasury. There is no
doubt but his successor will bo a demo
crat, and there has been much talk of
Editor Waterson, but wo imagine he
leads a more useful lifo where ho is.
Carlislo is an able man, is not atliicted
with the current mania, avarice, but is
not a man of good habits.
It is stated that an autopsy on tho
body of General Butler showed that tho
cause of his death was tho bursting of a
small blood vessel in tho brain, caused
by a violent fit of coughing. All the
organs woro in excellent condition and
but for the accidental cause he would
probably havo lived many years. His
brain weighed four ounces more than
that of Daniel Webster, one of the larg
est on record.
The 9-year-old daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Parker of Beatrice died Saturday
morning of malignant diphtheria. The
child was treated by the Christian science
method and the utmost indignation is
felt in the vicinity of tho victim's home
at the neglect and utter indifference to
the contagious nature of the disease.
Tho case will be called to the attention
of the grand jury that will meet next
month.
The Indiana legislature have passed a
bill making it a misdemeanor for em
ployers to threaten employes for belong
ing to labor organizations. Such a thing
ought to le no more necessary than for
the tables to be reversed. Tho truth is
equality before the law ought not rest
upon any sort of accident, whether of
position or means one man is as good
as another, when he behaves himself.
The Omaha Indians aro pretty thrifty
in tho way of getting rent for their lands.
They succeed m getting it broke up and
get paid 50 cents an acre, besides the

being sown on tho sod. After that they
receive a cash rent ranging from SI .50 to
S3 an acre, according to situation. There

FniLMP Kaiser, proprietor of the Lin
dell hotel, Omaha, Ninth and Farnani
streets, has been missing since last
Thursday evening and as he had consid
erable money on his person, it is feared
that he has met with foul play of some
sort The Bee says that lower Farnam,
where he was last 6eeu, is not calculated
to inspire one with any degree of per
sonal safety after nightfall.
The law that will allow a city to sell
property for taxes, and at the same time
refuse to take its own warrants for said
taxes, is an unjust law, and no honest
member of the legislature should longer
tolerate such robbery. Any member
who would vote against the repeal of
such an obnoxious law, only shows him
self to be a paid tool of the money sharks.
South Omaha Tribune.
Justice L. Q. C. Lamar of the U. S.
supreme court, died suddenly at 8 p. m.
Monday, at Macon, Georgia. Bright's
disease with angina pectora was the di
rect cause of his death.
Washington Letter.
From our regular correspondent.
The President has almost, but not
quite, made up his mind that he pos
sesses the authority, without further
Congressional legislation, to withdraw
the privileges now enjoyed by the Cana
dian Pacific Railroad. The matter has
been discussed at several Cabinet meet
ings, and if the President finally con
cludes that Congressional action is un
necessary he will make no recommenda
tion in his message which he will send to
Congress with the information concern
ing this matter which has been gathered
by the executive department of the gov
ernment, but will at about the same time
issue an order possibly a proclamation
withdrawing certain privileges, among
them the carrying of imported merchan
dise through the United States under
consular seals, which puts a large sum of
money in the pockets of the Cenadian
Pacific Railroad people without any cor
responding benefit to this country or its
citizens.
Representative Burrows, of Michigan,
thinks there is something in the charges
which have from time to time been made
against tho whiskey trust, of defrauding
the government out of large sums of
money by the use of poisonous drugs as
adulterants, and of violating the laws in
other ways, and he has introduced a res
olution iu the house providing for an
investigation of tho charges by a special
committee of five, the same committee
also to ascertain and report the names of
all persons connected with the trust. It
is believed that if this resolution be
adopted and the investigation thoroughly
mado it will uncover a great scandal,
involving many men of prominence, not
only in public but also in private life, in
cluding more than one man of high
scientific attainments.
Many members of Congress are kick
ing themselves for having been so gulli
ble as to swallow that silly story about
Senator Hill and boss Croker having
quarreled, and Murphy, Croker and Tam
many having decided to desert Hill and
cast their lots in with Cleveland. Truly
it was a story for the political marines,
and was undoubtedly given out with the
full consent of Hill and Croker. The
object aimed at was in plain view of
those with eyes piercing enough to see
through the hazy vale of mist which
usually surrounds the political move
ments of the democrats named. Having
had its own way in the nomination of U.
S. senator, greatly to the humiliation of
one G. Cleveland, who it should not bo
forgotten, will soon havo tho distribution
of many offices, Tammany concluded
that it would lo a great idea to pretend
that it Jiad quarreled with Hill, tho
maker or Murphy. It would soothe the
wounded dignity of Mr. Cleveland, and
probably prevent his repudiating certain
ante-election promises made to Tam
many, and would not hurt either Hill or
Tammany. It may be set down as cer
tain that whenever Hill chooses to make
a fight of any kind against Mr. Cleveland,
in tho U. S. senate, the vote of Murphy
will 1x3 at his disposal.
The slowness with which tho regular
appropriation bills are being reported to
the house makes many believe that chair
man Holman of tho house appropriation
committee, was in earnest when he said
the other day that unless certain legisla
tion presumably the free coinage of
silver was passed at this session he
would feel justified iu forcing an early
extra session of the next Congress by
causing the failure of some of the appro
priation bills. It would, however, bo a
very dangerous precedent for a chairman
of the house committee ou appropria
tions to deliberately delay appropriation
bills to force an extra session.
Mr. Cleveland is a shrewder politician
than many people are disposed to believo.
An evidence of this was given when he
sent a trusted personal friend to sound
Senator Morgan, of Alabama, to ascertain
whether he would accept the portfolio of
the Secretary of State. Now, Senator
Morgan is, and was all during Mr. Cleve
land's first administration an outspoken
opponent of a number of Mr. Cleveland's
ideas, particularly those on finance. At
the same timo ho is ono of the best post
ed democrats in public life on our for
eign relations, and is as vigorous in his
Americanism as the most ardent repub
lican would ask that the Secretary of
State should be. If Mr. Cleveland could
get him to become his Secretary of State
he would at one and tho same time
secure an ablo and capable adviser on
foreign matters and remove a dangerous
democratic opponent from the senate.
There is a doubt, however, as to whether
Mr. Morgan would be willing to associate
himself with the Cleveland administra
tion, although the honor of being Secre
tary of State is not one to be lightly
refused.

Mr. Wm. Steinbaugh is quite sick
with rheumatism. Dr. Okey is attend
ing him and may succeed in making him
O. K. pretty soon. Many seem to suffer
from that not very agreeable trouble.
Mrs. J. S. Henrich is having the house
finished that her deceased husband
planned and began but could not finish,
being stricken down by the cruel hand
of death in his young years. Sad to
thing of it!
Rev. Mr. Benthank is quite feeble.

A gentleman had to pay a note of about
$260. The paper was in a private house
but a banker was to receive the money
for the holder of the note who was ab
sent from home. So when the man
called with the money the lady of the
house entrusted him with the note to
take to the bank and pay it there. Here
was confidence in a stranger which in
this case was not misplaced. Perhaps
not one in a thousand would make the
venture, and how many or how few
would honor such confidence?
A German family from Lorraine, rel
atives of Mr. Schumacher, has just
arrived at Platte Center and moved into
Mr. J. Moffat's house. They seem to be
very respectable people and have a num
ber of sturdy sons and daughters; very
sensibly they want to work out for a
while until acquainted with men and
things, and then will buy land. Those
politicians that want to stop immigra
tion and keep such people out of our
country must indeed be "know-nothing."
The writer a few days ago received,
from a family that moved to Colorado
perhaps six or eight years ago, a money
order for a small debt they owed a man
who died about four years ago, the
money to be given to his widow if found,
else to the missionary treasury. An
other little remnant of houesty and con
fidence iu "a wicked world."
If the assembly of sages (?) in Lincoln
would make a law to compel reckless
debtors and men who let others pay
their notes to work in the work-house
for the support of their families and to
pay their debts, there might many such
an evil doer have the fear of the law if
not of the Lord before his eyes, and
many a kind creditor and note-endorser
be saved the bitter reward of his kind
ness. Mr. S. Alexander says that his land,
rented on shares, brought him about
3.50 per acre; a yield of S7 on an av
erage is a good one, and yet some got a
deal more.
Very interesting union meetings are

church, conducted by the pastor, Rev.
W. D. Elwell, and tho Methodist minis

A quarterly meeting of the Baptist

and Omaha.

Editor Journal: The writer of this,
believing in prohibition, would not say a
word against the little paper bearing the
above name for its advocacy of that prin
ciple, nor for its trying to boom the littlo
hamlet from whence it issues, and which
it would no doubt serve a great deal
better if its press-work was done say in
The Journal establishment, so that it
would lie readable, but wheu the little
sheet wants to induce four townships to
help build a bridge that would cost them
each several thousands of dollars and be
of no benefit except to the little, mush
room town of Monroe it is only making
itself a laughing stock.
Again, uncle Gerrard is greatly mis
taken in his "yard stick" paragraph. Of
course it does not make a bit of differ
ence of what material the yard stick is
that a merchant uses for measuring dry
goods, but during the war we have seen
what a vast difference it made ip paying
for anything in what kind of money such
payment wus made. There was a time
when a barrel of flour cost 12.50 in
greenbacks, while a 5 gold piece would
procure tho same article.
As the writer, so can brother Allen now
seo without sjiecs, the difference between
the material of a yard stick and that of
a piece of money of nominally equal
value.
Another point. Uncle Gerrard is sure
ly cute enough to see that a little con
trary wind is better for the sailor than a
dead calm, and he will therefore still
consider the writer of this as his
Friend.

We want every mother to know that
croup can be prevented. True croup
never appears without a warning. The
first symptom iB hoarseness; then the
child appears to have taken 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 tho croup. The time to
act is when tho child first becomes
hoarse; a few doses of Chamberlain's
Congh Remedy will prevent the attack.
Even after a rough cough has appeared
the disease may be prevented by using
this remedy as directed. It has never
