The Columbus Journal with com
mendable enterprise, calls the attention
of land owners to the fact that interest
at the rate of 20 per cent is allowed on
land sold for taxes. The Journal
thinks this too high, and as land security
is taken by lenders on the smallest inter
est and no prior claim gets ahead of
taxes, we think five per cent is enough,
especially as the land cannot escape,

It seems toTn Jocbxax. that the
revenue tariff advocates loose eight alto
gether of eeveral of the vary plaJaeet and
most important oonsiderationa on the
question, viz: The building up of a
home market, the increase of work to do
for our own population, and the increase
of wages, in the manufacturing indus
tries especially, thus not nsnaaajrating
that all men go onto firms to make a
living. Diversified industries ia one of
the results of a protective policy with
reciprocity features. Those of yon who
are really interested in knowing the
facts on the subject should obtain the
documents issued by the American Pro
tective Tariff League, which oontain a
mass of information on all phases of the
subject No. 2 of these documents
comprises a Urge number of the official
hearings before the Ways and Means
committee, and is valuable to all desir

A happy New Year to all readers of

1894 will doubtless find important
changes for us alL Necessity, said long
ago to be "the mother of .invention,"
and spoken with reference to the ad
vances made in the application of scienoe
to the mechanical world, ia about to
turn her attention to matters mental
and spiritual. The law of gravitation
has been fully set forth; the worship of
mammon has been almost universal and
unstinted. Now must come a different
order of things, or mankind lose the true
secret of life, which is not living only,
but right living, the instant result of
right thinking, the instant result again
of right motives. This, doubtless, is the
burden of the christian's prayer: Thy
kingdom come, thy will be done on earth
as it is in heaven.'' It is the direction
in which we are traveling that counts.

The Nebraska association of sheriffs
had a session in Lincoln last week;
Sheriff Kavanaugh was present, and was
appointed one of the committee on griev
ances. Of course, all classes of people
have such things as these, but what do
our sheriffs want more? They are sup
posed to be peace-officers. Do they
desire to see more people come into court?
More rows kicked up, so that they will
have more business? Or do they want
their fees raised these hard times? What
is the matter, gentlemen, that you must
take valuable time and spend hard earn
ed money going to and from Lincoln to
have an opportunity to talk over your
grievances? If there is really anything
for the good of the general publio that
you have in mind, let the people know
what it is, but why go about "grieving,"
when you could so readily resign, and
see your places filled by just as good
men, to say the least, at the same price?
Several years ago Bev.' William Pit
tenger wrote a book called "Daring and
Suffering,'' giving a very graphic descrip
tion of the raid made by 22 Union sol
diers of the 2d, 21st and 23d Ohio regi
ments, acting under the orders of Gen.
O. M. Mitchel, in which a train of cars
was captured in Georgia, in 1862, from
the enemy's camp, surrounded by 10,000
armed rebel soldiers. W. J. Knight, the
engineer of the expedition, the first to
board the train and the last to leave it,
will be here Jan. 4th to portray, in thrill
ing language, and many life-aixe oil
paintings, the capture of the train, the
escape, cutting the telegraph wires, tear
ing up track and burning bridges, the
pursuit by rebels, the hanging of seven,
plot to capture the jailer, capture of the
guards, the pursuit by blood-hounds,
eta, the whole forming one of the most
daring adventures in the annals of war.
A letter received from W. B. Backus
is quite interesting. He says his health
is good, prospects excellent, appetite
ravenous. If the sun shines ths dogs
bark themselves hoarse for joy. He
mentions the following former residents
of Platte county, who are now there, and
says they are all well: Mr. and Mrs. M.
P. Hurd, Mary Brownlow, Annie Paul
eon (nee Luth), Miss Ella Luth, John
Fucha, formerly from Humphrey, now a
member of legislature, Joseph Coleman,
Ada Morrison, (nee Smith), and Mrs.
Waldron. The Puget Sound Mail saya,
in reference to a Hunting party: "We
are informed that Mr. Backus, the law
yer who recently arrived from Colambns,
Nebraska, and has been a guest of M. P.
Hurd the past week, had the honor of
killing the first deer, even if he waa a
tenderfoot.''

His Jailer's life.
Last Thursday evening at about 530,
as Thomas Gentleman, the jailor at the
county's lock-up was about to give them
"feed" for the evening, a thing unusual
happened.
The iron cure, which stands in the
middle of the jail, has two cells which
both open into a little hallway along the
side of the cage.
- One of these contains Debaney, the
man charged with the murder of his
wife in Nance county. The other is just
now occupied by another of Nance
county's criminals, John Boler, charged
with snooting a man, and the man Pier
eon, who burglarized and robbed a jew
elry store in Humphrey the other night.
Pierson confessed to Gentleman that
he and Boler had planned all day how
they-would "do him up" and get out of
"durance vile."
When Gentleman opened the outer
door of the cage, instead of finding all
as it should be, he was struck over the
head and face with a chair leg handled
by Pierson, and dropped to the floor.
It seems that Boler, being rather cow
ardly, was not so quick as the agreed
pun called for, and Debaney, fearing
that his jailor waa about to be murdered,
got a poker and went at Boler with it.
Gentleman recovered oonsciousness, got
on to his feet, and called upon Debaney
to keep at his work, aaying: "Dont be
afraid, Debaney, you and me can get
away with them." And they did, put
ting them back into their cells all right.
It is an old trick of prisoners, this of
waylaying the man who feeds them, and
escaping, from the dull and dreary walls
of their living entombment It shows
that they have a very lively sense of the
value of liberty, if they do not take the
bast means of keeping and using that
liberty by cultivating a "constant and
perpetual disposition to render every
man his due."
