Born, Sept 28, to Mrs. J. M. Gon
dring, a son. This was the fourth child
and first son for John, and as he first
saw the light on the day of the demo
cratic county convention, doubtless
John thinks the coincidence auspicious
for th? future political outlook of the
scion of his house.
Nearly ererybody at the World's
fair who saw John Tannahill's big ear
of corn thought it was manufactured by
using several ears and ingeniously
putting pieces together, and were sur
prised when convinced to the contrary,
and that the immense ear was a genuino
and single product of nature's own
handiwork.

are more profitable than most peo-
imagine, but they will not lay during
e winter without help. Van Schoik's
egg-making food supplies tho material,
and in the proper proportion that is ab
solutely required to make the eggs. It
was gotten up especially for that purpose
and has been in use in the east for ten
years with great success. 3
A. W. Armstrong will commence
the erection this week of his new plan
ing milL The bnilding will be 40x80
feet two stories high, and will be located
three blocks west of the U. P. passenger
depot Mr. Armstrong intends having
the mill in running order in about two
weeks. He has three car loads of ma
chinery to place, and will have a first
class mill when completed.
Ralph O. Bates, calling himself a
Grand Army man, has swindled a goodly
number of the boys in Montana. Thoa.
Wilson, who is looking after such fel
lows here, says that the papers should
describe these frauds, because they
change name, and G. A. R. members
should apply to them the tests of the
order, which, in nearly all cases, will
develop the false pretenses under which
they travel.
Cards of invitation are out to the
marriage of Charles Whitmore Pearsall
of this city and Miss Louise Baker in
Norwalk, Ohio, October 17th, at the res
idence of the bride's parents. Both the
contracting parties are well known here,
Mr. Pearsall, as one of Platte county's
best young men, and Miss Bakor, as a
teacher last year in our public schools
and who made many friends by her
ladylike qualities.
Some one has left us samples of
Isaiah Lightner's corn raised on this
year's breaking of prairie sod. We did
not learn whether the field was an old
feeding-lot for cattle, but certainly the
size of the ears would indicate some
thing of the sort Anyhow, we would
like to receive, for publication, the
processes by which he raises such ears
as these. Those who saw them at the
fair have considerable curiosity on that
score.
Robert Powers, the 15-year-old son
of John Powers, living north of Colum
bus had a serious accident about three
weeks ago that The Journal failed to
chronicle. The boy was driving cattle
and was carrying a broken-handled
three-pronged pitchfork. In some way
he stumbled and all three prongs en
tered his right side three inches below
the arm, and were forced seven inches
into tho body, penetrating the lungs.
Drs. Martyn & Geer were called at once
and now the boy is almost well.
Peter Noonan was nominated last
week as the independent candidate for
state senator. At the convention at
Platte Center, he was called up, made a
little speech in thanks, and declined to
run, but we guess that he must have
changed his mind, when it was there
insisted that the county convention had
no right to receive or to consider his
declination. The logic of the situation,
anyhow, is to vote for Nels Olson of
Creston, one of the staunchest men in
the county, a man who has clear-cut
ideas of public affairs, and who does his
duty fearlessly at all times.
A man by the name of Storm has
either been waylaid or is playing
crooked. He landed here about two
weeks ago and gave out that he desired
to start a horse ranch; his home was
Springfield, HI., where his father lived
and owned "Fleetwood," a very valua
ble horse, he wanted to purchase a sec
tion of land; ho went successively to
Baker's, Gleason's and Luers's liveries
(dividing his patronage, as he said),
running up considerable bills, and not
returning with the last rig, a phaeton
with a bay and a dun horse, belonging
to Luere. The man had plenty of
money on his person, displaying at
least $600, of which the livery men
named and hotel keepers would like to
have their just dues.
This seems to have been an excel
lent year all around for raising peaches.
Jacob Judd living near Platte Center
has a peach orchard from pits planted
nine years ago, (and they were from pits
planted by him a few years before that);
there are a hundred and ten trees, ninety
of which bore fruit this year. The or
chard is protected by forest trees on all
sides, but otherwise its location is not
peculiar, and his trees have had no ex
traordinary care. This .year the ninety
trees that bore fruit, yielded four hun
dred bushels of very fair-sized peaches,
of excellent flavor, as we can testify.
These have been sold readily at $2 per
bushel. One crop of this kind is enough
to pay for even considerable trouble to
raise the fruit Mr. Judd thinks a good
deal is owing to his raising the trees
from the second generation of Nebraska
grown seeds.

The. oonveatioa was called to order
promptly at 2 o'clock Wednesday after
noon at Fitzpatrick's hall by G. J. Garlow
as chairman of the central coauaittee
In the absence of secretary J. N. Heater,
the chairman called upon 0. W. Pearsall
to read the published calL
W. A. McAllister was selected aateav
porary chairman, and J.E.Sallack as
temporary secretary.
A committee on credentials was ap
pointed consisting of Reeder, Clark and
Hoare. They reported the following as
entitled to seats in the convention, and
the report was adopted:
Columbus City First ward E. PohL
J. a Hatfield, Ole Johnson, Frank Cole
man, W. M. Cornelius.
Second ward John Hoffman, J. D.
Stires, John Pollock, Hugh Hughes,
J. A. Barber, D. M. Doty.
Third ward M. Whitmoyer, a W.

J. G. Reeder, J. A. Griffin, J. N. Heater.

R. P. Scofield, J. H. Randall
Bismark A. Weisshand.
Sherman Ed. Leuschen, H. G. Leu
schen, Theo. Wenk.
Granville V. G. Lyford by R. P. Drake
as proxy, G. W. Conrad, G. W. Clark.

vey, E. A. Stockslager.

Monroe J. E. Sallack, L. Anderson,
Bert Priest, Dan. Zieglerv
Creston Nels" Olson, A. Iverson,
Joliet David Thomas, R. E. Jones.
Burrows Evan Evans.
Shell Creek William Connor.
F. P. Johnson and C. D. Owens were
added to the list to serve for Butler
township, and, after the organization,
Mr. Pohl as delegate from the First ward,
Columbus, authorized M. K. Turner to
serve as his proxy.
On motion of Whitmoyer, the tempo
rary organization was made permanent
Garlow moved that the convention pro
ceed to elect delegates to the state con
vention; seconded by Reeder and carried.
Cornelius moved that the selection be
made by ballot, and that the ten receiv
ing tho highest number pf votes be de
clared the delegates.
Stires moved to amend by striking out
"by ballot" and that each township and
ward name oue delegate. Seconded.
Stires supported his motion in a speech
in which he said that the people of the
different townships know whom they
want; they know the men they can rely
upon, and he believed their wish should
be regarded.
Cornelius called attention to the fact
that there were some eighteen or more
townships and wards, represented in the
convention by from one to seven dele
gates each, and it would hardly be fair
for the smallest to name one and the lar
gest no more, besides there were ten to
be chosen, whereas the amendment pro
vides eighteen or more.
Stires rejoined that he was not satisfied
to let it go in that way. It is just be
cause of this hurried way the people tol
erate in doing their political work at the
primaries and conventions that the pres
ent misfit occupies the presidential chair
of this country. However, as there was
substantial objection to the proposition,
with the consent of his second, he would
withdraw it Drake offered .an amend
ment that the delegation from each town
ship and ward name a committeeman,
and that these should select a list of ten
delegates to present to this convention.
Carried. The committee duly named
were Cornelius, Hoffman, Garlow, Olson,
Scofield, Weisshand, Leuschen, Connors,
Clark, Warner, Johnson, Hoare, Evans,
Zeigler, Jones, and the names presented
to the convention were: O. C. Shannon,
J. G. Reeder, A. Weisshand, Frank Ken
yon, L. Anderson, J. G. Pollock, E. A.
Stockslager, Henry Ragatz, C. W. Pear
sall. The county central committee was
then named by the several delegations:
Columbus, First ward, H. T. Spoerry;
Second ward, J. E. Hoffman; Third ward,
M. Whitmoyer; Columbus township,
R. P. Scofield; Creston, S. J. Wheeler;
Bismark, Aug. Weisshand; Sherman, Ed.
Leuschen; Shell Creek, A. Ives; Gran
ville, R. B. Drake; Humphrey, W. H. H
lian; Butler, F. P. Johnson; Loup, Fred.
Gerber; Lost Creek, C. Chapin; Bur
rows, Evan Evans; Monroe, Wm. IIoll-
ingshead; Joliet, George Mahood;
S. Painter; Woodville, J. Apgar.
Cornelius, Hoffman and Drake were se
lected as a committee to present to the
convention for its approval, delegates to
the senatorial convention, which they
did as follows, their selection being ap
proved: F. M.Cookingham, M. K.Turner,
A. V.Ives, C. D. Owens, H. Alexander,
R.P. Scofield, Wm. Hollingshead, H.
Hughes, J. D Stires, C. Chapin.
Garlow moved that the convention pro
ceed to the nomination of the county
ticket by ballot, and in the order of the
call. Carried.
The nominations then proceeded but
all made were by acclamation, and unan
imously, as follows: for clerk, W. E.
Kent; sheriff, H.O.Rohdehorst; coroner,
Dr. Harry Arnold: surveyor, J. T. Mor
ris; for superintendent of public schools
the nomination of J. N. Taylor, already
made by petition, was endorsed; county
judge, W. A. Hampton.
The central committee was authorized
to place upon the ticket a candidate for
treasurer, and also to fill any vacancies
that might occur.

ship. Freeman, in a little speech, called the
attention of the convention to some
business matters. Platto county had
been assessed SCO as their portion of a
state fund, etc. A collection resulted in
$18.80; a second collection for hall rent
gave $&20.
There seemed to be something under
cover as to tho order in which candi
dates should be placed in nomination,
whether to begin at the head of tho list,
as in tho published call, or at tho foot,
and there was considerable sparring
thereabout, which resulted in beginning
the shearing of tho sheep at the tail.
Perhaps some of those who voted for
that motion and didn't know why, can
now tell.
Dr. E. N. Smart of Humphrey was
nominated by acclamation for coroner,
and made what tho convention evidently
regarded as a happy speech.
Fred. Gottschalk of Columbus was
unanimously nominated by acclamation
for surveyor, somo one wanting to know
if he was an independent
C. A. Brindley and E. B. Daniels were
named for superintendent of schools,
but both declined. Mr. Way, then, in a
very neat speech, placed in nomination
J. N. Taylor, who had already been nom
inated by petition, and that nomination
endorsed by the republicans. Jud.
Wilson of Woodville was named and he
was declared the nominee of tho con
vention by acclamation. Tho first sen
tence of his speech was: "Gentlemen,
you have surprised me most wonderful."
"The nomination of John Gibbon of
Joliet was next made for county jndge,
not, howover, until after Brindley had
declined to allow his name to go before
the convention, and John Walker and
Mr. Morgan of Humphrey had had a
tussle of words concerning the political
proclivities and general qualities of Mr.
Robison of Humphrey, who had been
named for the office.
J. O. Blodgett then, in a short but
solid Bpeech, placed in nomination for
sheriff R. Y. Lisco, a well-known gentle
man of Columbus township, who accept
ed in a short, modest and appropriate
speech.
For treasurer, the names of R. E.
Wiley, William J. Welch, W. A. Way,
Leander Gerrard and L. Groteleuschen
were mentioned, after which a recess
was taken. Upon calling to order, Mr.
Stevens said that he had consulted with
friends in Columbus, who assured him
that Mr. Gerrard would not accept the
nomination. Way and Wiley having
emphatically declined, Mr. Welch of
Monroe was selected.
Shelp nominated Louis Groteleuschen
of Bismark for county clerk and re
marked that with him as a candidate, he
thought the backbone of the democratic
party in Bismark and Sherman town
ships would be broken. The nomina
tion was made and thus ended the main
work of the convention. The central
committee was authorized to fill all va-
oanejaa that might occur ia the tisket
