Onu election laws will not bo complete

Odd lino democrats are not at all

Tun Fremont Herald says: "It is for
tunato that senators Babcock, Mattes
and North got into line as straight dem
ocrats, oven if tho conversion did oocur
after they voted lo mako Correll presi

"Canada sees President Harrison's lit

The Globe Democrat of St. Louis is
eminently correct in saying that "there
are obvious and forcible reasons why the

As Gov. Pesnoyek's reply to an adjutant-general

famous already, wo give it in full: "No

thought there was a difference oven
among democratic presidents, ho might
have rejoiced that tho government still

Senator Ghaham, in discussing the

that in his opinion thero was ne-er a

in tho privacy of the democratic national
hejidquarters for tho express purpose of
being introduced in northern states.
Such a measure was never heard of in a
southern stato. The bill was never
thought of until it was hatched up in
Michigan for tho express purpose of dis
rupting the republican party of that
state and it has been introduced for that
purpose in Nebraska.
Down at Omaha tho county commis
sioners are looking after the revenues a
little more closely than has been custo
mary, in fact the people all around the
horizon are asking a great number of
" Bearching questions these limes. County
Judge Eller says that tho fees for mar
riages have never been turned into tho
treasury, and he doesn't propose to start
an innovation. Commissioner Stenberg
says: ;'And we hold that the fees re
ceived for marrying people come under
thi6 provision just the same as probating
'.wills and all other work done by the
'"judge. The county pays him for tho
.time he serves on tho bench and it is
- only by virtue of his official position that
he has the authority to perform mar-
- . riagea. When he goes out of office his
. authority to do this will depart from mm
and we maintain that the fees belong to
'. the office. Another thing, the marriages
are for the most part performed during
- " court hours and ho is taken from the
.- bench to .do the work. Work on the
I 'bench is thus interrupted for the good
of the pocket of the judge. The fees
.. belong to the county and should go to
r " the.county. The judge has no right to
them any more than he has to any other
: .fees irtucn come into tne orace." Tiie
. : number of marriages performed last year
". by the judge was SCO, and estimating at
an average of five dollars, this would be
..- 31,300, a neat littlo sum. If all the
V"- county judges, past and present, and
'; prospective, shall be held to this rule,
irhat a shelling out there would be!
Gov. Hogg of Texas has rebuked tho
spirit of lawlessness at Paris, his very
mildest sentences being: "The public
murder committed at Paris is a disgrace
to the state. Its atrocity, inhumanity
and sickening effect upon tho people at
largo cannot be obscured by reference to
the savage act of the criminal himself in
taking the life of an innocent child." The
most significant part of the governor's
message, so far as the general public is
concerned, is that in this same neigh
borhood, within tho past twelve months
three other men who had committed no
crimes, were hanged. Their presence in
the community, the governor says, was
offensive, or perhaps menacing to the
pleasure and equanimity of the band of
murderers who took their lives. He also
says that thero have been other instances
in Texas where innocent men have been
executed by mobs, and no punishment
has been possible. Tho condition has
grown to this, that if enough men in n
community choose to defy the law, they
go on in their nefarious actions at will.
He hopes tho legislature will not allow
this condition to continue unchallenged.
The Journal has no sickly sentimetality
on this subject, believing that the worst
of earth is too good a place for such
fiends incarnate as tho man who was
burned alivo proved himself to be; but
just such villians as he was, are trained
up by deeds of blood and violence and
cruelty and cowardice such as tho ten
thousand were guilty of who tortured
tho man to death, and tried to drown his
cries of agony by their demoniac yells;
just such lecherous scoundrels as ho was
are being "cultured and developed"
every day in the small towns and great
cities of this country where commerce in
sin is counted a respectable business, or
at tho worst a necessary evil. Commu
nities are like individuals,- -what is in
the blood, will appear, at last, at the
surface. So far as great bodies of men
are concerned, if they lose their respect
for law, thero is no means of governing
them except by brute force alone. Every
good citizen must see that there is but
one safeway: enact good laws, and exact
obedience to them.
Mary and Kate Grabenhorst of Iowa
ought to bo immortalized in verse for
their deed of valor last week, and the
younger (sixteen years old), should have
a double portion of praise. Five miles
from Ogden, a tramp named Joo Ross
secreted himself in Fred. Grabenhorst's
barn, along with two other hard charac
ters, miners of the neighborhood named
Hamilton and Lloyd, their purpose being
to kill Grabenhorst when ho should come
to the barn, then murder tho three
women at tho houso and securo S200 or
S300 supposed to bo in tho house. Gra
benhorst came to tho barn and was shot,
tho shot taking effect in tho arm. Boss
tried to fire again, but his seven-shooter
missed fire, and he then went to clubbing
Grabenhorst over tho head. Ho cried for
help and this brought his wifo and two
daughters, school teachers, rushing to
tho rescue. The older girl grabbed Boss
by tho wrist, while the other, sixteen
years old, took tho revolver from him and
began beating him over tho head with it.
An exciting struggle followed; tho moth
er was thrown clear over a fence, but the
two girls overpowered the tramp and
bound him tight with a rope, and the
youngest girl guarded him while the
other went to neighbors for help. Tho
youngest girl was with difficulty restrain
ed from clubbing Boss to death after she
had conquered him. Tho three men are
in jail, and Ross says that tho other two
planned tho attack and he was compelled
to carry it out. All three, he says, woro
in tho barn from .') in the morning until
7 in tho evening, when tho attack was
made. If more girls were trained ath
letes and "school teachers," tho tramps
would have fewer ictories than they
now do.
Fire broke out in tho f urnnco room
of tho Continental hotel at Centerville,
Iowa, Thursday morning, and it was
with difficulty that tho guests escaped
alive. Those on tho first and second
tloors got out at tho windows. Will
Hale, traveling salesman, jumped from
the third lloor to tho frozen ground, had
three ribs broken and a thumb torn off.
Samuel Lowis of Greely, la., was cre
mated. Mrs. Mclvce, tho landlady, was
on the first lloor but went to tho third,
and tho flames cutting off her escape,
she jumped; being of 2f0 pounds weight
sho fractured nearly every bono in her
body. Sho was picked up unconscious
aiul'died Thursday afternoon. Tho loss
)f tho building was 28,000, insurance
14,(100.
A kon of James Lemon at University
Place. Lincoln, was shot by his older

Wnhiiiton letter.
I From our n-gnlnr correspondent.!
Tho President has heard the official
proposition made by tho commis
sioners from tho now provisional govern
ment of Hawaii for tho annexation of
that country to the United States, and
is now, with his usual thoroughness and
care, studying the question, in all its
bearings, in order to mako up his mind
whethor ho will take auy steps towards
annexation, make any recommendations
to congress, or leave the whole matter
for tho incoming administration and
congress. Before tho commissioners
arrived it was thought probable, indeed
it was informally agreed that a treaty by
which the United states took tho repub
lican government of Hawaii under its
protection would bo about the proper
thing for the present, leaving annexa
tion to follow, as it unquestionably
would havo done in a few years. But
when tho ultimatum of tho commission
ersannexation or nothing was receiv
ed tlso situation was changed. Tho
President and all of his cabinet are
favorable to annexation, but as it would
havo to bo preceded by congressional
legislation, and tho life of tho present
administration and congress is so nearly
spent it may be deemed advisable by tho
administration not to begin what would
probably have to bo ended by the new
congress and administration. A decision
will probably bo reached in a few days.
The Hawaiian flag -red, white and blue
stripes, with a red cross in tho corner
is flying from the top of tho hotel at
which tho Hawaiian commissioners aro
quartered. There is nothing foreign
looking about tho members of this com
mission. A determined effort is being made to
secure some silver legislation on a com
promise basis before tho session closes.
Dan Lamont and Don Dickinson are
hero in tho interest of the new adminis
tration, and to submit to the silver men
several propositions for a compromise,
all of them involving a suspension of the
purchase of silver by the government.
They say that if their efforts are not
successful an extra session of congress
will certainly be called.
The bill authorizing the expenditure
of 50,000 in the preparation of an ex
hibit for tho World's Fair, showing the
progress of tho colored race since 18G3,
has been favorably reported to the house,
and the favorable manner in which it is
spoken of by members indicates that it
may pass, but, owing to the crowded
condition of the calendar, action on no
measure is certain.
Probably no single action of the Pres
ident during his entire term has been
more talked about than the nomination
of Judge Howell E. Jackson, of Tennes-
J fee, an able jurist, but an uncompromis
ing uemocrat, io succeea uie jaie justice
Lamar on tho bench of theU. S. Supreme
Court The President had 6tated to a
number of gentlemen bis intention to
nominate a republican, and such was his
intention until the day before he nomi
nated Judge Jackson, and tho cause of
his change of mind was a notification he
received to the effect that twelve repub
lican senators would vote with tho dem
ocrats against the confirmation of any
republican ho might nominate. The.
reason given by most of these republicans
was that an attempt to force the confir
mation of a republican would result in
either tieiug up tLe senate for the Test of
the session, or the adoption of a cloture
rule, nud that they would not take any
chances of either. Contrary to prece
dent Judgo Jackson's nomination has
been referred to a committee. It has
been customary to confirm the nomina
tion of ex-senators without referring
them to committees. Judge Jackson
although a democrat is not a believer in
the doctrine of state rights. Democratic
senators say privately that his confirma
tion depends upon Mr. Cleveland's
wishes. The houso whilo sitting as a
committee of the whole adopted a very
sensible amendment to an appropriation
bill, giving tho owners of American
quarries a chance to compete with for
eigners in furnishing the marble for the
new Congressional Library building, but
when the yea and nay vote was taken in
regular session the party whip was
brought into use and the "protection"
cry raised, consequently the amendment
was rejected by a party vote.
Secretary Foster's report on the condi
tion of tho treasury, and his estimate of
receipts and expenditures for this and
the next fiscal year has put an end to the
talk alout a bankrupt treasury, which
has leen more or less prevalent among
democrats ever since congress met.
The amount of mutilated currency now
leing presented to tho treasury for re
demption averages $1,500,000 a day, being
much larger than for many years. It is
believed that this is largely caused by
tho scare concerning the carrying of tho
germs of contagious diseases in old paper
money.
Tho attempt to mako the Panama canal
investigation a star-chamber affair is not
well received. The people want to know
the whole true inwardness of this busi
ness and if it injures anybody's reputa
tion so much the worse for them.

tho Rev. R. Killip, look place at the
homo of tho bride, and was attended by
a large circle of relatives from oach side,
together with a few of the nearest
neighbors, taxing tho utmost capacity of
the not very large house. The evening,
after an excellent supper, was very
pleasantly spent in social intercourse,
interspersed with music, both voca! and
instrumental, the family being nll of
them possessed of a happy faculty in
that lino. Tho young people have taken
up their abode on the farm occupied by
the bridegroom and his brother Will, on
what is known as tho Jewell place, and
from the reputation of each, there is no
doubt that a fair portion of happiness
and prosperity is befoio them. Thero

In looking over the fall wheat Sunday,
we found whore the plant had been eaten
off to the ground by stock, there remain
ed a vigorous green plant, with a root so
firmly established in tho soil that no
March wind will cause it wither and dry

place of spring wheat, our millers make
better flour, and as a consequence the
farmer has better bread.

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 havo taKen a cold or a
cold may have accompanied the hoarse
ness from tho 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 fow doses of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy will prevent the attack.
Even after a rough cough has appeared
tho disoaso may be prevented by using
this remedy as directed. It has never
been known to fail. 25 cent, 50 cent

case I used Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, and I think with considerable suc
cess, only being in bed a little over two
days, against ten days for the first at
tack. The second attack I am satisfied
would have lieen equally as bad as the
first but for the use of this remedy, as I
had to go to bed in about 6ix hours after
being 'struck' with it, while in the first
caso I was able to attend to business
about two days before getting 'down.' "

You never can be just quite certain
of the weather, even in Nebraska, which
has more fino days in the year than any
other state we know of. Philosophers
say that it is by the changes of things,
the varieties of surroundings and
emotions that human nature is devel
oped. Probably that is the reason we
havo so many great men and noble
women in Nebraska.
There is no danger from whooping
cough when Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy is freely given. It liquefies the
tough, tenacious mucus and aids in its
expectoration. It also lessens the se
verity and frequency of the paroxysms

Castoria is Dr. Samuel Pitcher's prescription for Infants

It is Pleasant. Its guarantee is thirty years' use by
Millions of Mothers. Castoria destroys Worms and allays
feverishuces. Castoria prevents vomiting Sour Curd,
cures Diarrhoea and Wind Colic. Castoria relieves
teething troubles, cures constipation and flatulency.
Castoria assimilates the food, regulates the stomach
and bowels, giving healthy and natural sleep. Cas
toria is the Children's Panacea the Mother's Friend
Castoria.
"Caatorifti on excellent medicine for chil
dren. Mothers haTO repeatedly told me of iti
good affect upon their children."
Db. G. C. Oacooo,
Lowsll, Ikes.
Castoria Is the best remedy for children of
which I am acquainted. I hope the day U not
far distant when mother! will consider the real
interest of their children, and use C&storiA in
stead of the various quack nostrums which aro
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agent down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves."
