Elmwood's coal mine is to bo worked by Plattstnonth parties. A hkavy rainfall Thursday throughout northern and central California. Tun nomination of Elijah W. Ilalford as major and paymaster in tho l S. army was continued by tho senate on Thursday. Juixse John Makti.w leader of the fusion democracy of Kansas, has been elected U. S. senator by a combination or populists and democrats. Baicky's resolution to impeach Gov. Crotinso for approving tho Jlosher-Out calt bond is hc'mn pretty generally con demned by men of all parties. Monday's joint ballot for U. S. senator stood: Powers, 41 : Paddock, 21 ; Majors, 8; Thurston, ('; Morton, -i; scattering l., anions lite latter being Senator North's voto for Boyd. Satdupay was the day lixed for re ceiving bids for tho survey and marking by suitable monuments, of that portion of tho boundary lino between Nebraska and South Dakota, which lies west of tho Missouri river. Tun first bill on tho general lilo of tho house, recommended for passage, was No. 11, the anti-Pinkerlon bill intro duced by Irwin. Good enough. It seems that Barry and Cornish had a little brush during tho discussion of the bill. Sr.Nvroi: Noi:Tif from tho committee on judiciary reported senate tile No. 11, by Moore, making it a capital offense for any person to cause the death of another whilo attempting to commit a minor offense, with recommendation that it do pass. IIiooixs has introduced a bill to com pel corporations, persons or companies intending to construct or operate rail roads in this stato to complete and oper ato lifty miles of their road every year after the expiration of three years from the date of their purchaso of right of way.

JmxiE Net-son or the United States court at Diilutk has pronounced the Chinese exclusion act unconstitutional. In tho particular case before him. Ah Sin had lived in the United States seven years, and had been sentenced to im prisonment for thirty days and to return to his native country, with no trial by j"ry. We havo not seen a copy of Darner's bill, senate tile No. IS. making it unlaw ful for all batiks to receive deposits until they have placed a good and sutli cient bond in the hands of tho county clerk. The banking committee of the senate recommended the indetinito post ponement of tho bill, but on Darner's motion the bill was placed on tho gen eral file. It is reported on good authority that tho railroads of the United States pay, in round numbers, to their attorneys fourteen millions of dollars annually. This, in part, comes from the passenger traffic but largely from the freight bus incss. It is an indisputable fact that the producer pays the major part of this enormous amount of money, whether the legal talent is turned against him or some corporation. Government owner ship will lop off this 11.000.000 per annum. Wahoo New Er;u Ciiaklie Smith was thrown from a load of hay last Tuesday morning, a short distance north of town, and re ceived injuries that will lay him up for some time. Iii". right wrist was broken, his right hip and leg badly bruised, his left ear w:is nearly f-ovetew from his head, and :i deep gash cut in tho right side of his neck, extending luthin a quarter of an inch of his jugular vein. He was brought to town by a gentleman who was with him, and his wounds were properly dressed.- Wahoo Wasp. The Fort llandall reservation was to havo been thrown open to settlement and the proceeds from sales of tho lands given to tho states of Nebraska and South Dakota. Thero aro about 100,000 acres in tho reservation and tho land is worth S10 tin acre. The bill which ro cently passed the senate, emio up before the house committee on military affairs, and bv a decided vote they refused to report the bill, and thus $1,000,000. which would have gone into tho treasuries of tho two states named, will not so go, anil it is claimed that Congressman Kem either did not have or did not exert any inlluence with tho committee, in favor of Nebraska. TnE twenty-threo cattlemen arrested last April by U. S. troops, got off scot free tho other day at a session of the district court at Cheyenne. Wyoming. Tho sheriff after weeks of effort, could not secure tho required number of satis factory jurors, and so came into court and announced that unless some one proffered $S00 to cover the expenses of securing more veniremen ho limsl ceaso his efforts. Public opinion was in favor of tho cattlemen, and nobody came for ward with the money, but the cattlemen insisted upon a trial and acquittal, and consequently the jury box was tilled up from by-standers, tho men under indict ment were brought up in blocks of four and promptly "tried anil acquitted."' The Chicago News Record remarks, in speak ing of this travesty upon legal proceed ings: "But Wyoming would do well to lay in a newsupply of citizens fromwhich to replenish her juries. A culprit who escapes justice because there aro not enough people in the community to fur--nish twelve impartial jurors cannot.be expected to view the law with, uniform respect," Gcs. Lockxeii, representative from Douglas county, has introduced a bill to make it unlawful for any public official to use blanks or stationery with his name thereon printed at public expense. The Bee remarks that it would be very diffi cult to enforce such a law. So it would, but right-minded men would have their attention called to the fact, and would retain their own self-respect by respect ing tho will of the people as expressed in timr 1ms- Snnnofift von are constant ly, openly violating some well-known law of your state, do you suppose that you thereby gain anything in the respect of your fellow-citizens, who are aware of your disregard of tho law? If -you do, you aro. mistaken. If your specialty has been in the way of magnificent "appro priations" from tho public cribs, bo sure that your fellow-citizens wm reauy re gard you as more reprehensible than the petty'thief who steals a coat to warm his back. The public are beginning to regard quality as of tho first considera tion, in making their estimates of the worth of human character. You are what you aro a miser, whether you worship tho penny or the eagle; a thief, whether you purloin one dollar or a kingdom the spirit counts, and the good citizen obeys the law because he wishes to do the right thing. The loss of James G. Blaine will be felt more and more as tho years pass by. In many ways ho was a typical Ameri can. He came from the ranks, and in strength of intellect and patriotic fervor ho had no superior. In statesmanship ho was, to our thinking, unequalled by any other man in our history as a nation, lie had tho ability to see as with a men tal telescopo tho dangers that were com ing in our direction, aud not only that, but tho forco to combine tho elements to combat tho threatened danger. Indom itable courage, pluck and tho genius to play his part always characterized him. He never failed to measure up to any in tellectual task that he set for himself, or that tho current of events placed upon him. Wo believo thero was a titno when ho longed to bo president because of the good ho thought ho could do in that high office, but after his strength failed him some years ago, we think that, for himself, ho gave up any thought of it. But ho is now at rest, gone to that land whither had preceded him tho great men and patriots who havo honored tho world by living in it. American citizens in all generations will revere his memory, and thank Providence for giving to his coun try the labors and sacrifices of such a noblo nature. Anion;; the Churches. The presbytery of Chicago has taken an advanced position. On a voto of 3G to HO it decided in favor of a revision of tho Confession of Faith according to more liberal and popular opinions. Plymouth church. Brooklyn, has l,Nlfi members. J luring tho last year it raised for all purposes Soo.OOO. Its activities include three clubs, the Athletic, the Earnest and tho Central; two societies, tho Foreign Missionary and Ladies' Society for Home Work. Besides these there are tho Young Men's Union tho Young Women's Guild; tho Plymouth League, tho Bethel and Mayflower mis sions and a penny providence fund. An American woman who has made a most favorable impression in England is liev. Florenco Kellock. Over there tho clerical oliico is still almost entirely a masculine prerogative, and evidently thero was a popular impression that a regularly ordained minister of tho other sex must lie a strange person. When the interviewers discovered MissKellock to be a graceful, bright, intelligent woman, with wavy hair and dainty dress, they were agreeably surprised. Miss Kellock is studying Egyptology and Assyrian archaeology in tho British museum". On her return to this country eho expects to act as co-pastor of the Universalist church in Pasadena, Cal. For thirteen years past she has been pastor of a church in Chicago, and sho lias made tho remarkable record of being absent only once from her pulpit and then on account of tho grip. Miss Kel lock's education was obtained at the Wisconsin state university and at tho University of St. Lawrence. Bev. Carlos Martyn or the Sixth Pres byterian church of Chicago, would have tho church begin work over again and from a differei.t starting point. Begin as Christ did with tho body. Free baths before free bibles;. Soap boforo tracts. Bread befuro prayer meetings. A hungry man is not a li candidate for grace. Make tho church an institution of all. Why should it not rescuo from poverty, from ignorance, from coarse ness, as preparatory to and significant of spiritual salvation? I would have cards, billiards, bowling, baseball overy recreation- put under tho patronago of tho church. Washington Letter. I From onr regular correspondent. If the cholera gets a foothold in tho United States next summer by reason of inadequate quarantine laws, tho Tam uiiinv members of tho house, aided bv a few others of the Kilgoro stripe, will bo responsible for it. Tho quarantine bill, which recently passed the senate without a division is generally admitted to bo a good bill, and entirely free from even tho slightest taint of partisanship. About the only criticism made of tho mejisuro was that it does not actually provide for a complete system of federal quarantine, but as it practically does the samo thing it was not opposed on that account. It was Mipposed that tho house would promptly pass the bill just as it was, in order to avoid delay and possible failure to meet tho emergency that every intel ligent medical man in the country knows is almost at hand, and if orders had not been received from tho Tammany boss to oppose it such would probably have been tho case. As it is, the Tammany immlwrs and a few others held out against, the bill and loaded it with amendments, none of which have im proved it, tho evident object being to defeat quarantine legislation. 'Tis a fearful responsibility, but what cares the Tammany crowd for that, so long sis it gets its own way. Ex-speaker Beed was right when he recently said that when congress did not legislate it was simply because it did not wish to do so, and it is daily becoming more certain that Speaker Crisp and his associate bosses do not wish the house to legislate at this session. They havo almost decided to give tho democrats a chanco to mako themselves solid with the next administration by setting a day to voto on tho bill providing for a sus pension of tho purchase of silver, which has been favorably reported from the oommittoo on banking and currency. Speaker Crisp, who is the controlling spirit of tho committee of rules, does not in reality favor this bill, but he has promised to givo it a chance, and there is now only one thing that stands in the wjiv of a cloture rule being reported, setting a time for voting on the bill, and that is the fear that the Stewart free coinage bill, which was passed by the senate at the last session, may bo offered as a substitute and adopted. If Mr. Crisp really thought that this bill could ever get through tho senate ho would probably not havo promised to give it a chanco to get through the house. The report that Judge Gresham had been or would bo tendered seat in tho coming cabinet was not at all pleasing to a majority of the democrats in congress, although few of them havo publicly ex pressed themselves. It is known that Judge Gresham made a secret visit to n ashington a few days ago, and that he held conferences with Mr. Carlislo and other prominent democrats known to be in the confidence of the President elect. Senator Brico says he knows that Gresh am can bo in the cabinet if he wishes to. Democrats say that the acceptance of ttio treasury portfolio by Mr. Carlisle makes it certain that there will be an administration tariff bill presented to the house of tho fifty-third congress, and that it is to devote his time to the pre paration of that bill that Senator Car lisle's resignation will take effect on the fourth of Febniary. If this bo true, it also indicates that an extra session of congress has been determined upon, be- cause if congress was not to meet until next December there would be no neces sity for hurrying up the preparation of the bill. Republicans do not, of- course, believe in one man legislation, but if one mau is to prepare a tariff bill the most of them would prefer Carlisle to any other democrat; he will make a democratic bill, and that is what republicans want to see, believing that the inevitable re sult wilL be the return of the control of the government to the republican party. Tho republican senators have in caucus agreed to disagree on the silver question, and to leavo every senator to vote as he niay feel disposed. The county treasurer of Adams county who publishes a statement semi-annually, as required by law, reports ''No outstanding warrants." ADDITIONAL LOCAL. Roll of Honor.

Durinj; tho month of January, wo havo had good roads smd but littlo snow, whilo stock aro doing as wetl as wo over knew them to do at this season of the year; taking tho month all through, it has been very pleasant winter weather. Tuesday and Wednesday of last week, M. Shcedy caused to be shelled and de livered about 1,2(H) bushels of corn, for which he received US conts; tho corn was delivered at Kichland. Monday of hist week, while in tho stalk field near tho north line, ten head of horses belonging to Joe. l)nnnin, stam peded, running south one-half mile, and through a wire fence. Tho stampede wtis lirst caused by tho appearance of two prairie wolves, prompted by u bron cho maro and led by old Frank, a horse li hands high. The stampeders ran four miles further south and then scattered. It took Joe all day to gather them up again, and, excepting a few skin scratch es by tho wire, the animals seemed to be none tho worse for tho race, but terribly frightened. Annie Griffin, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P. JS. (iriflin, litis been quite sick, with some complaint resembling jaundice. Last Thursday morning. Henry Kru ger was csilled to the bedbido "of his father in Wisconsin, who is lying sick unto death. Mr. K. will remain there for a time indefinitely. Tho boys from this vicinity, who are in college at Fremont, now read The Columhus JouiiNAii once a week, which gives them the local news. And now comes a letter from our Tom Grillln to his parents bearing the sad news of the breaking of Tom's right arm whilo in a steamboat collision near east St. Louis. Tom was employed on one of the lioats in. the capacity of roust about or captain; the accident happened on tho i!7th of December. Tom has sinco been promoted. Wo learn now that the faithful Mr. Arnie, who was employed by Mr. J. U. Heed while farming on his beautiful section near the city a few years ago, has been employed for tho coming sea son to work Tor C II. Sheldon upon his extensive farm three miles north of tho city. Mr. Mueller, who nliout a year ago laid down the lace, ribbon and yard stick, bought 80 acres of land in section 11 and begau permanent improvements thereon, has convinced ns that we guessed wrong when we said a dry goods merchant would make a failure in farm ing. The animals are comfortably hous ed, cared for and well fed, while the fences, buildings and implements are kept intact and as neat as a now pin, and no cockleburrs are allowed to grow on his land. John Dishner drove into the city a fine bunch of steers a week ago last Saturday, and his teams were also haul ing grain into Richland last week. Mr. D. generally exercises good judgment as to when to sell farm produce, as he al ways gets the top market. Tho failure of the Capital National bank had no effect whatever on Thomas Flynn's sand bank, and there need be no worry on the part of those interested in the latter. The population of Columbus is about 3,500, and we would say at least one-half are troubled with some affec tion of tho throat and lungs, as those complaints are, according to statistics, more numerous than others. Wo would advise all our readers not to neglect the opportunity to call on their druggist and get a bottle of Kemp's Balsam for the throat and lungs. Trial size free. Large bottleB, 50c and SI.

Resolutions adopted by the Farmers' Club in session at Mr. J. E. Nichols, Jan. 27th, 1K93. Resolved, That it is with smcero sorrow we record the death of an esteemed member, Mrs. J. C. Swartsley, who bade adieu to pain and suffering, and went to lie with the Sayiour, who said "Come unto mo and I will give you rest." Although through tho closing years of her life, a complication of diseases made her it constant sufferer, sho never lost her interest in those about her, having only smiles and sympathy for all. The good accomplished by her quiet life is best known among the angels, where the true records tire kept. Resolved, That we extend onr heartfelt sympathy to tho bereaved family and friends, commending them to the caro of 'Hun who doeth all things wisely. Platte County's Treasury.

The first symptom is hoarseness; then the child appears to havo 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 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.
