WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 21. IBM.
Mbs. Mxea Bbadweli proprietoress
of the Chicago Legal Newa, died at
Chicago Wednesday. She was the first
woman in the United States to be ad
mitted to the bar.
OxEof the dormitories at the Rosebud
Indian agency in South Dakota was
burned Wednesday, loss $50,000. The
building accommodated 200 children,
some of whom narrowly escaped.
It is said that Charles Osborn estab
lished the Philanthropist, a weekly
paper, at Mt. Pleasant, Ohio, in 1816, and
that it was the first paper published
which declared for immediate and un
conditional emancipation.
The executive committee of the Tax
payers league of South Omaha has
arranged a scaling down of the list of
paid officials that will, if adopted by the
city council, decrease the running ex
penses several thousand dollars a year.
The post-office at New York city turnB
into the treasury of the government
$4,000,000 more than its expenses every
year, and it is said that the ton largest
offices in the country furnish one-third
of the entire revenue from the service.
The Paris police say that the man
giving his name as Breton is Emile
Henry, a French-Spaniard, whose father
was a member of the commune and sen
tenced to death, and a brother of For
tune Henry, now undergoing a term of
imprisonment at Clairvaux for inciting
to murder.
Leon Breton, the anarchist waiter
who threw a bomb into a cafe in Paris,
came near being lynched. The news
papers demand that the government
adopt the most vigorous measures
against the anarchists. Twenty-five peo
ple were injured but none killed by the
explosion.
The Blair Courier is authority for
saying that Jim Hill is to connect his
lines of road with Omaha in the early
spring, running from South Sioux City
by the river side from that place, taking
in Blair on the way down. If this is
true, it will be a great thing for Omaha
and this part of Nebraska.
Two Diller (Nebr.,) boys have applied
for a patent on a machine which com
bines in one implement all the essential
tools used upon a farm, including a
seeder, disc plow, corn planter, lister,
drill and cultivator, mowing machine and
hay rake. The entire machine will not
weigh to exceed 700 pounds.
Dr. Merriweather of Paragould,
Arkansas, administered the newly-tested
antidote to morphine, permanganate of
potassium, to a would-be suicide one day
last week. His pulse was 40 and respira
tion 10, when the doctor began on him,
but in a few moments after injecting the
antidote into his arm he revived and is
now well.
Geronimo, the famous Apache chief,
has become a justice of the peace in
Alabama, and presides with dignity and
fairness. He permits no foolishness
from the lawyers, and administers justice
with an even hand. Who knows but the
erstwhile chieftain of a lawless band may
yet take a seat in the congress of the
nation, and prove himself a public bene
factor instead of a public scourge. St.
Paul Globe.
The Fremont Tribune rises to remark
that there is no use for republicans to
underestimate Congressman Bryan's
strength as a candidate for the U. S.
Benate from this state, which is true.
Mr. Bryan is ambitious, energetic, wide
awake, and is a man who would be ac
ceptable to a considerable number of
democrats and populists in the last
mentioned fact lies his peculiar strength
as an opponent to republicans.
The storm of the thirteenth was a
caution in many parts of the United
States. At New York the wind howled
at sixty miles an hour. At Boston, the
Bame speed of wind, with snow, and not
such a storm for years; a three-masted
schooner went ashore off Cochituate, the
crew of eight men taking to the rigging,
and being rescued by the life-saving
crew. Haverhill was buried under two
feet of snow, with drifts in places ten
feet deep.
The cave-in of a coal mine at Ply
mouth, Pa., Tuesday of last week buried
alive thirteen miners. Eleven widows
and thirty-six children were thus thrown
on the world's charity, losing their bread
winners. Two rescuing parties sent
down into the mine were compelled to
return, and all hope of rescuing the men
was abandoned. This is the greatest
disaster that has occurred in the anthra
cite regions eince 1885, when twenty-two
men perished by a similar cave-in at
Nanticoke.
The little disagreement between Mr.
Cooley and Judge Clingman over school
moneys has caused a good deal of lively
thinking among the people of this town.
They say that, if the handling df our city
and school funds are of sufficient im
portance to precipitate a bank fight
every spring, and to tempt school officers
to loan it for the interest it brings, why
not the proper authorities designate de
positories, and let the public have the
benefit, the same as the county? There
is considerable sense in this suggestion,
and it may be worth consideration on
the part of both the school district and
city officers. David City Press,
United States Circuit Judge' Caldwell
of St Louis differs widely from Judge
Dundy. His views are nearer in accord
with those of people in general:
'If receivers should apply for leave to
reduce the existing scale of wages, before
acting on their petition I would require
them to give notice of the application to
the officers or representatives of the sev
eral organizations to be affected by the
proposed change of the time and place
of hearing, and would also require them
to grant such officers and representatives
leave of absence and furnish them trans
portation to the place of hearing and
subsistence while in attendance, and I
would hear both sides in person, or by
attorneys, if they wanted attorneys to
appear for them.
SAME AS RECEIVERS.
The employes on a road in the hands
of a receiver are the employes of the
court, and as much in its service as the
receivers themselves, and as much en
titled to be heard upon any proposed
order of the court which would affect
the whole body of employes. If, after a
full hearing and consideration, I found
that it was necessary, equitable and just
to reduce the scale of wages, I would
give the employes ample time to deter
mine whether they would accept or reject
the new scale. If they rejected it they
would not be enjoined from quitting the
service of the courts, either singly or in
a body. In other words, I would not
enjoin from striking, but if they made
their election to strike, I would make it
plain to them that they must not, after
quitting the service of the court, inter
fere with the property or the men em
ployed to take their places. A United
States court can very readily find the
means to effectually protect the property
in its possession and the persons in its
employ. I have in one or two instances
pursued the policy I have indicated,
and the differences were satisfactorily
adjusted."
Possibly there is no depth of human
depravity, but what a still lower depth
can be reached. This is doubtless the
philosophy of that advice which begs of
men to guard against their besetting sin,
to avoid occasions, times, even the
thought, which is sound wisdom. There
is no other way that is safe. A dispatch
comes from Leamington, Ontario saying:
"Joseph and John Munger and Adolph
Jones are under arrest charged with
having taken part in a wholesale scheme
of debauching respectable young girls of
this town. Hubert Devore, a prominent
citizen, 08 years old, and others have left
town suddenly for the purpose, it is
alleged, of avoiding arrest. Investiga
tion has disclosed the fact that Devore,
who practices mesmerism, would entice
a dozen or more school girls to his store,
when they would be supplied with candy,
and that instead of going to school they
would visit the Mungers' house for hours
at a time. The investigation has divulg
ed disgusting details."
The March number of The Forum
(which, by the way, will begin Volume
XVII.) will contain the sharpest and, it
is believed, the most helpful discussion
of the Income Tax that has anywhere
appeared. The Hon. Uriel S. Hall,
member of congress from Missouri, who
had made himself a great authority on
this subject, will write in favor of it;
and Mr. David A. Wells against it. The
Bame number of The Forum will contain
the first of a series of articles on differ
ent systems of Socialism or Communism
that are favored by different groups of
agitators in the United States; Mr. Ed
ward Bellamy will explain definitely the
programme of the Nationalists, and Pro
fessor William G. Sumner of Yale Uni
versity will criticise this programme
showing its impracticability. Another
striking article that will appear in this
number, will be a searching inquiry into
the causes of Railroad failures in 1893,
by Mr. Simon Sterne.
We don't know where David Lubin of
Sacramento, California, gets means for
his missionary work, but he is doing the
country a service in sending out pamph
lets in advocacy of this doctrine: "The
margin of profit of the primary industry
(agriculture) is the source for the sup
port of the secondary industry (manu
facture). The volume of the former
determines the latter." Whether you
believe his text or not, he has some very
interesting arguments to sustain it. We
are in receipt of No. 2 of his pamphlets.
The mild weather lately has caused
several avalanches in Switzerland. Three
chamois hunters who were trying to scale
the Spitzfluh were overwhelmed, two of
them losing their lives. Some Turlo
hotel servants who were sent to inspect
a small hotel at the summit of the moun
tain at Saentio have not returned. A
searching party, organized to rescue
them, found their way blocked by an
enormous avalanche, under which the
missing men are supposed to be buried.
ADDITIOSAL LOCAL.
City CoBBril.
Council met in adjourned session Feb.
16, all present except Mayor Schupbach,
President Gray in the chair. Minutes of
last meeting read and approved.
A communication from a host of busi
ness men and occupation-tax payers was
read asking the council to take such
measures as they might deem advisable
to protect the business men of the city
against parties from abroad coming into
the city and selling goods of doubtful
character to the detriment of the com
munity. A number of the signers being present,
they were called upon to speak their sen
timents to the council.
J. A. Barber said that they wished
such ordinances as we have enforced, and
if necessary to protect our own business
men, the ordinance should be amended
so as to make the auctioneer's license
S25 a day for doing general auctioneer
ing business, and $10 a day for each
separate line of goods. The tax at
Omaha, Lincoln and Sioux City is $50 a
day. Such parties have taken out of the
city thousands of dollars a year, to the
detriment of the community as well as
of regular business men who by their
occupation tax and other contributions
support the city government.
Messrs. Greisen, Gray, Swartsley and
Fitzpatrick spoke to the question, as
well as Councilman Welch, Galley, Gray,
Newman, Spoerry and Hoffman.
On motion of Galley the subject was
referred to the committee on judiciary
to consult with the city attorney and
report by ordinance or otherwise.
On motion of Galley it was unani
mously declared as the sense of the
council that the mayor issue no licenses
to auctioneers selling dry goods, cloth
ing, boots and shoes, hats and caps, or
gents' furnishing goods for leas than
$10 per day, as provided by section 2 of
the occupation tax ordinance.
On motion of Galley the council unan
imously adopted the plans and specifica
tions presented by the water commis
sioner for extension of the water supply
of the city.
Adjourned to Saturday night
The council met pursuant to adjourn
ment, all present, Mayor Schupbach
presiding. The minutes of the last meet
ing were read and approved.
The committee on judiciary reported,
recommending the adoption of an ordi
nance submitted, which amends the
present ordinance by making the license
begin and end with the fiscal year.
The regular routine was then gone
through with, and the ordinance duly
adopted.
Gray explained the effect of the new
ordinance that it cuts off the right after
six months, to grant a license for one
half year. Parties desiring to do busi
ness in the city, must take out a license
by the year or else by the day.
City Attorney Whitmoyer, being called
on for his views, said that the laws must
bear equally on all, they muBt not dis
criminate, must be consistent; the tax
must not be excessive or prohibitive;
such had been the decision of the
supreme court. As to classifications of
auctioneers, there could be nothing
higher than a general auctioneer; under
such a license he would have authority
to sell anything that maybe sold, wheth
er merchandise or other goods. He said
the change proposed was, he believed, a
good one.
On motion of Councilman Gray, the
committee on Public Property and
Waterworks was unanimously directed
to confer with the city attorney and take
the proper steps necessary to place the
proposition for voting bonds for the im
provement of the waterworks, and report
by ordinance at the next meeting of the
council.

This is good weather to write, by a

It is too early yet to ascertain the

this date it is known that only a small

cracking and drying out where the sur

Dr. Heintz has had completed an out

Have you? secured your farm help, and

member, with all the best implements,

the end of the season you cannot even

are liable to get at that time.
While on horseback and driving some
cattle last Friday, Henry Kruger was
thrown to the ground and received in
juries that will lay him up for some
time. The top of the ground was made
slippery from recent thawing, and in
trying to head off a steer, the horse he
was riding slipped and fell upon Mr. K.
His friends, thinking his leg was broken,
immediately sent for a doctor. In the
meantime the sufferer was taken to his
home, when it was discovered that no
bones were broken, and we think he was
very fortunate to escape with bruises

Henry Lubker hands us the following
from the Farm Implement News, which
6eems to him worthy of thought these
times, when there is so much cry of an
honest dollar:
"As has been continually the case
Bince silver was demonetized in 1873, the
prices of silver and of grain still decline
together, wheat at 55c, rye at 43c, corn
at 35c and oats at 27c in Chicago are
prices that beggar the producers, and
the assertion by the subsidized organs
of the money power that such prices so
ruinous to agriculture are the result of
unprecedented production is met by the'
fact that, in this country at any rate, the
area of wheat for 1893 was considerably
less than usual, and the average yield
but little over eleven bushels to the
acre; of rye the yield was 13 bushels; of
corn 22, and of oats 23. These are
the figures after the short crop of 1892,
and with considerably less increase in
prices than in population.
Does this show unprecedented over
production? An honest dollar is the
one that most fairly represents the value
of staple commodities. That is what
dollars were originally made for. Is the
gold dollar, now, an honest dollar?"
Over-production is a word very often
flippantly used by gamblers on the board
of trade; under-consumption is a fast or
condition that comes nearer explaining
the present situation, as well as former
times like these. The ability to buy is
guaged by the work done and the pay
received therefor. Where everybody
works to get a corner on the circulating
medium and hold it, the times will be
close, and the biggest corner is made
when there is but the one basis of the
currency, viz., gold. The Journal does
not believe in a depreciated currency,
neither does it believe in an appreciated
currency. Our different classifications
of the circulating medium should be
equally good, and no discrimination
should be made between them. The
dime of the poor man should be worth
its full face, the same as the eagle.

A revivalist at David City indulged
himself in some personal remarks when,
at 10 o'clock during a lull in services, a
dozen or more people quietly left the
room. Rev. Calfee told them that "anv

hours' service in God's house would
never be content to remain in heaven
forever and ever," and the newspaper
suggests that possibly heaven will not be
so tiresome as the preacher, or God Al
mighty so critical. Those "roasted" were
