The many friends here of John and his family will rejoice with them in their return. Their absence has never seemed just right. George Lehman returned Friday from Chicago. They have packed up and shipped here the furniture used in the hotel in which be had an interest. The Park Commissioners have decided that all the World's fair buildings may be left standing until Dec 1st, 1891, and it is generally thought that the fair will be continued next year. Midway is 'aovr being dismantled. Lehman thinks if railroad rates to the fair had been all the season what they were at the wind up, he would have been about $25,000 ahead.

Mr. Henry with hiss the past two weeks. It so near, i not thoaght the end was he seemed to revive in strength, and the last dsy able to sit up. Herbert was born and raised in this city and was a great favorite with his companions, having a kind, cheerful dis position. The past few years he has spent mostly in Omaha, where he had attended college. The remains were broaght here Thurs day, the funeral services were held from the residence of his parents Sanday afternoon, at two o'clock. Rev. Joudon conducted the services in the Episcopal form, the choir consisting of Mesdames Evans and Chambers and Meters. Cor nelius and Schroeder, with Mrs. Hocken- berger as accompanist, furnishing the music The house was crowded with friends, many standing ontaide, to pay their last respects to the dead. , - The pall-bearers were class mates and friends of the deceased, namely, Late Cashing, Ben. Brodfeuhrer, Chas. Welch, Chas. Segelke, Carl Hoeben and Burt Coolidge. The body was bud to rest in the Co Iambus cemetery, aad let us cherish the belief that naf spirit has joined those of hia friends who have preceded him to the Summer Land. The relatives present from abroad were Mr. L. L. Adams of Fiteburg, Wis., and R. D. Adams of Rising, Nebr., father and brother respectively of Mrs. Henry, J. Bex Henry of Fremont, and Mr. and Mrs. a M. Barker of Silver Creek. Be side these, there were several friends of the family. DIED. Bobowiak Sunday hut, after an ill ness of about two months, Martin Boro wiak, aged 68 years. The deceased came to this country from Polish Germany 22 years ago. He leaves a wife and seven children to mourn his loss, three of whom Joseph, Leo and Mrs. J. A. Gutzmer, live in this city. Six children have gone on before him. The remains will be taken Thurs day to Duncan for burial. Rogers Monday afternoon, from a tumor which caused blood poisoning, after an illness of about three months, John Rogers, aged 38 years. The deceased had lived in Nebraska about fifteen years, and moved from Polk county to Columbus about four months ago. He leaves a wife and three young chil dren to mourn his loss. The funeral was held Tuesday morn ing at 10 o'clock from the Catholic church, and the remains interred in the Catholic cemetery. The mayors of more cities than Co lumbus have given considerable thought to the practical phases of the social purity problem, as presented to the ex ecutive departments of cities and towns. It has always appeared to the writer that there is but one course open to the man who accepts the office of chief ex ecutive of a town or city in the state of Nebraska, and who, under the solemn obligations of an oath, enters upon the duties of a guardian of the best interests of the community, and a conservator of the public welfare, and that course is to do his duty fairly, fully, and to the best of his ability, just as the laws of the state and city lay those duties be fore him. Surely, the citizen who will fully, (therefore knowingly and ma liciously), violates the law, is not to be ranked as a good citizen, while thus doing; neither can an official of any grade be considered a good officer while, instead of furthering the interests of good citizenship, he frustrates and de feats the very objects laid down by the law, and which, nnder the obligations of his oath of office, he is sworn to do his best to fulfill. The true, and therefore the only and safe standard for officer and citizen is, "the law" and its enforce ment. There is opportunity in this city for an industry that would pay the proper investor a good dividend on hia money, and would be an excellent thing for the community and that is a canning fac tory. Long before there was any such enterprise begun in Nebraska The Jour nal advocated their practicability -and worth, and now there are in the state ten such industries, viz: at Beatrice, Grand Island, Nebraska City, Kearney, Seward, Tekamah, York, Blair, Edgar and Stanton. A report of the product of these institutions for the year 1898, in corn alone (and not including the last named three) gives 4,648,000 cans; some of these put up corn alone, but others pack peas and tomatoes, and the indus try is one that is destined to grow in Nebraska in much the same way as it grew from the smallest of beginnings years ago in the state of Maryland.

Henry Rickert, who was one of the candidates for supervisor in Bismark township at the late election, has en tered a contest before Judge Hensley of the county court, setting forth in his claim to the office that, the whole num ber of votes cast for the office was 125; that the incumbent, Wilhelm Schreiber, received 65, and the contestant 58, and that upon this apparent majority of 7, the certificate was issued to him. Rickert alleges that John Mohnke, sr., John Loseke, John Naunburg, Ranken Serfken, Edward Boe, Anton Krofka, Mahias Kramar, Samuel Reinke, Martin Mayer, Jochoim Brunnig, Mat Vol tz and Christ. Yeiter were accompanied to the voting booth by August Range, one of the judges of the election, and were assisted in the preparation of their bal lots by him without the said electors having been first duly sworn or exam ined under oath as to their disability or 'their inability to prepare their own bal lots, and that each and all of the said electors thus assisted voted for the in cumbent. He alleges that Runge did not certify on the outside of the ballots or any of them, that the same were marked with his assistance; that all said voters, thus assisted, intended, when they entered the voting booth, to vote for the ' con? testant, and requested the judge assist ing them, to mark their ballots for the contestant, but that the judge wrong fully and corruptly, instead of marking the ballots to carry out the intentions of the voters, marked them for the incum bent, and that the ballots thus cast were sufficient to change the result of the election, and were cast by said electors in the belief that they were voting for contestant. That Schreiber electioneered all day within less than 100 feet of the balloting place, and with the intention to bribe and influence the electors .of said town ship, gave and furnished whisky and cigars to the electors of the township during the timo the polls were opened on the day. That he conspired with August Runge and procured him to at tend the polling place early in the morning, and that Schreiber furnished Runge with whisky and cigars, and that he entered into an agreement with Schreiber to use his influence for his election, and that he did so. The Beaaties aad Wander ef the Werid'a Fair. Mr. Charles F. Catlin of Omaha, sec retary of the Western Art Association, will give his superb entertainment en titled, "The- Beauties and Wonders of the World's Fair," illustrated by a mag nificent collection of seventy-five stere opticon views each twenty feet square, with an interesting and instructive de scriptive lecture at the Columbus opera house, Wednesday evening, Dec. 6. The Omaha press speak in the highest terms of Mr. Catlin and his' splendid en tertainment. The subject is one of universal interest at this time and cannot fail to attract a large audience here, as it has done elsewhere. To those who were so fortunate as to visit the World's Fair, this will have a peculiar interest and attraction while to the many who were deprived of that great privilege it will convey a clearer and a more perfect idea of its grandeur and magnificence than they can possibly receive in any other way. No person old or young should fail to improve this opportunity of spending a delightful evening among the "Beauties and Wonders of the World's Fair."

TOEORUAMZK THE UNIOXFACIFIC. iportant Coafcrrnce of Parties in Interest,, in New York. Everything concerning the great line of road on which our city is located has a strong interest for us at all times, and more particularly so just now. Owing to the great indebtedness of the company and the fact that the govern ment talks of foreclosing its lien, soino have' been -apprehensive that the inter ests of- the road would suffer, and with them, that all business along the lino of the great system would feol the depress ing influence. Tup Journal has sincerely hoped that these Jeare would not be realized; that, somehow, all interests could be united in a common purpose, mutually advanta geous, and still hold the great system intact, to the advantage of all the cities and towns along its route. We' are glad to note that last Wednes day, at New York city a conference was begun, its purpose being the formation of a committee to financially reorganize the IJ, P. system with nearly 3,000 miles of road, and over $300,000,000 securities. The senate committee on Pacific rail roads was represented by Senator Brice; the estate of Ames by Executor Carr; the holdings of the Gould-Sage-Dillon party were by Louis Fitzgerald; the European security holders by Adolf Boiesvain; the Oregon Railway and Navigation company interests by M. H. T. Higginson of Boston, and the Union Pacific, Denver & Gulf, by Gen. Dodge. It' Is' stated that the exchange of views proceeded in a very friendly and busi ness ''like manner, and that the selection of aicommittee of reorganization from among their number would be made: If . ithis shall take place, and tho legiti mate" business of this great system of railroads proceed without serious inter ruption! bow much better it will be for al). concerned, and especially for the bus iriesflnferests of the' people along the liheChan to have the concern bound, baridfand foot, and tied up in a court of chancery! ' 'It'-means a good deal, one way or the other, to this city. '.- District 44 aad Viciaity. .We have a double wedding on the tapis in this vicinity, which will proba bly come bffthfs week. Miss Nellie Young and' sisters, Winnie and Ruby, and master Ray visited Mr. and Mrs. B. V. Stevenson of Colfax Sun day, at their cosy new home. The busy season of 1893. is past, and the farmers can congratulate themselves on having grain enough to feed their stock and then have some to spare; while none of them have made money out of their crops, yet not one of them will be put on the block, while it is nothing unusual to learn of merchants and' business men in' other pursuits going to the wall nearly every week. Now is the timo to put away your farm implements, and this is just the time to examine each one" carefully to see what repairs are necessary, and have the same put in good order before stowing away, and it may be that after the rush and jam incident to corn husking, your wagon box may have got out of repair; Bowjs the time to look it over and put it in a good and tight condition, before cora shelling comes around, for if -there is any one leak worse than another to a fanaar it ia tr InavA a trail tt rIa11a1 tcora from his premises to the place he Burkata his grain.

Bishop Newman's lecture was a strong plea for private and public morality, honor and honesty in government that should give the nation power to carry out its mission, to give to man the high est individuality and the bringing of all nations to one common platform, that of civil and religious liberty. Norfolk Journal. With his experiment in the raising of mustard on his farm near Brainard, Mr. James Bell has had good results, not withstanding a considerable loss in the yield on account of hail. From what could be called about half a crop the receipts amount to $10 per acre. He harvested eleven hundred bushels of this novel crop. David City Banner. The Brainard Tribune tells of a young farmer who had saved $65 of his sum mer's wages, and going to David City, had been easily led to drinking, then gambling, until his last cent was used up, together with his pocket-bjxk, gloves, overcoat and even shoes. The welfare of every community demands that the weak and ignorant be protected against the wiles of the vicious. A telegram was received on last Thurs day from DeKalb, 111., announcing the sudden death of N. D. Anderson, a prom inent farmer living seven miles northeast of St. Edward. While attending the World's Fair, Mr. Anderson caught a severe cold, which brought on pneumo nia, resulting in death, after but three or four days sickness. His body came to St. Edward on Saturday last; the funeral was neiu at me jjuiueran cuurcli near Mr. Anderson's residence on last Mon day. Sun. At David City they organized a public library under the state law authorizing a yearly tax levy for that purpose. We BaSH HatSpCap i s&rJOUJrJQt are not informed ns to the number of such libraries iu the state, but we do know that Nebraska men and women are not living up to their opportunities in this respect. David City is one of tho exceptions to this state of affairs her public library being in a flourishing con dition, recently having added, says the News, three hundred volumes. Wo be lievo its patrons are only limited by tho bonndaries of Butler county. Tho trial of Fred. Sargent for tho mur der of his wifo in this county hist sum mer, is now being conducted before tho district court in this city, Judge Jack son presiding. Tho prisoner created a littlo excitement last Saturday by attempting to cut his throat, or a play of that kind, with nn old case knife. He only succeeded in scratching his throat a trille. If he really wanted to end his existence a good razor should havo been furnished him before the connty was put to the expense of a trial. One hundred and twenty-five men were examined be fore a jury was secured. Madison Chronicle. A Washington telegram to the World Herald of Omaha says that there had been flagrant mismanagement of the Indian school at Genoa, Nobr., while the same was in charge of Superintendent Backns; that Special Agent Shelby, in charge pending the appointment of a superintendent, reports the school in bad condition, and that removals have been made and more will follow when the new superintendent is appointed. The Genoa Leader, quoting the above, adds: "Rats: If the school 'is in bad condition it can be laid only to the door of those who have been appointed to take place of those removed. Backus resigned several months ago at which timo the manage ment of the school was practically taken out of his .hands, although he remained superintendent in name owing to the democrats being unable to find any one competent to relieve him. That the school is in bad condition and getting worse everyday is patent to all, but it is not Backus' fault but that of a corps of incompetents from Iowa and Missouri appointed to duties of which they have no conception."
