A. J. Campbell returned Thursday last from Oklahoma, where he has been for several weeks looking after his landed interests. He says they have had an abundance of rain, and vegetation there is far in advance of that in Nebraska. Prof. Taylor of the State Horticul tural society reports the fruit crop all right in the vicinity of Lincoln, except peaches. Of course we don't live much on Nebraska peaches, though J. J.

The young men expressed themselves as highly pleased with the way in which Columbus young people entertained them. Gus. G. Becher was in town yester day on his way to Hebron to attend the nuptials of a friend. In answer to the query if he was a candidate for secretary of state he replied in the negative, but admitted that he would like to serve a few terms as land commissioner. The North Platte country will give him a monster delegation if he asks for it. Lincoln Journal. The sub-district missionary conven tion will be held in the Methodist church, tomorrow (Thursday), afternoon and evening. Addresses, papers and dis cussions will be the order of the meet ings. Pastors and others of Clarks, Silver Creek, Columbus and Richland will be present. The meeting will be continued at Richland Friday and Fri day evening. All are invited. Occasionally the "jiner" gets mixed as to the society he is in, and no wonder, if he meets with three or four different ones a week. They nearly all have their preferences, too, and one can readily tell, by the inadvertant use of "post" or "lodge," of a man's propensities to stick by his colors even in a "camp," which should, for the time being at least, be the recipient of all his loyal obedience. C. J. Rundell of Wayne was in the city Tuesday of last week in the interest of the Gulf & Inter-State R. R. Co., and gave The Journal office a pleasant call. The contract of surveying and grading the 2400 miles of road has been let to C. J. Jones of Perry, Oklahoma, and grad ing has been in progress the past three weeks, 100 teams and men being at work. As Yankton and Wichita are two of the cities on the route of the road, Colum bus is strictly in line, if we are only able to hold our advantage of position. .t'Anra fouereu -'r.

Judge Kelly of Norfolk had business in the city Monday. , - Rev. and Mis. Bross went to Sihrsr Creek yesterday morning. C. A. Randall of Newmans Grove was in the city Monday on business. John Moffett of Platte Center was in Columbus Saturday on business. Ed. North came np from Omaha Saturday remaining until Sunday after noon. C. E. Rickly of Ruahville, Nebr., ar rived in town Sunday and remained several days. N. H. Parks of the Greely Herald on' Friday purchased the Telegram of this city, and took immediate possession. Judge Parks is a veteran in newspaper work, a practical printer, and will, no doubt, make a worthy successor to D. F. Davis, who has for several years been the proprietor of the Telegram. There are many ways in which newspaper pro prietors can and do work together for the good of the community, and we have no doubt that The Journal and the Telegram will, as heretofore along these lines, pull together for all the best in terests of Columbus and Platte county. The retiring proprietor of the Telegram, Mr. Davis, has given us, in work and ex pense, a ranch better newspaper than he has received remuneration for, and dur ing the life of the Daily Telegram struggled" heroically against odds, but furnished a journal that will long be remembered. The city of Indianapolis had a suit against a brewers' association under an ordinance of the city providing that all breweries and distilleries depots or offices must pay $1,000 before they can operate. It was contested. The con tention on the part of the association WAB that the ordinance was a discrimi nation in favor of local dealers and a hindrance to interstate commerce. Chief Justice Howard of the supreme court of Indiana, in a decision on the ISth of March, held that these companies were subject to the laws of the state and to the same police regulations as if their liquors had been produced in the state. It would be advisable, doubtless, for Nebraska cities and towns to look up this matter, and at least do justice to home interests. No discrimination in favor of outsiders. Henry T. Spoerry, the retiring mem ber of the city council from the First ward, has done conscientious work from the start. We believe that he did not lose any time from his duties (except, perhaps, for a brief while, when he was absent from the city); he certainly took an active, lively interest in all that came before the council for consideration; and, having his time wholly at his own disposal, very much of it was given for the benefit of this city. On some sub jects he was not in line with the council, but after making strenuous contests for his views, when voted down, he always submitted with good grace, and con tinued to work along just the same as usual. Clarence Newman, the retiring mem ber of the council from the Third ward, made one of the most efficient members of that body, the legislature of our city. Chairman of the committee on finance, he gained the sobriquet "Watch dog of the Treasury," which he well deserved, and in an honorable sense. The office of councilman is one, more of honor than of emolument, and where credit is due we believe credit ought to be given, for faithful work done in the service of the public. Mr. Newman's knowledge of public affairs, gamed by official service in other offices in the county, has been available during his term for the benefit of the tax-payers of the city. The Richland correspondent of the Schuyler Sun says: Alice Plumb com menced the summer term of school in the Binder district Monday; Richland post-office is now a money-order office; a 6port went hunting and after crawling a half mile on his hands and knees, suc ceeded in sending two rifle balls through a decoy goose; a young man on the plat form at the depot pressed a Hag staff against the side of the coaches as they passed by, making a scratch across the side of the cars. Two days after a U. P. detective put in an appearance, and the young man settled at SCO. John E. Hoffman, the retiring coun cilman of the Second ward, has made a most carefnl, painstaking official. We never could see that he had any fault but one in the discharge of his dnties and that is that he is altogether too modest for his merit, but even this was not allowed to interfere when matters of importance came up. When he address ed the council, his remarks were always to the point, and we do not recall an in stance where his vote was not cast for the best interests of his constituents. The following program will be ren dered at the ''Pink Social," given by the Y. P. S. C. E. of the Congregational church at the residence of C. H.

Mr. McKelvey was born at Berlin, Wisconsin, April 7, 1857 and, died on the thirty-seventh anniversary of his birth day. He was married October 4, 1863, to Miss Nelia Matthews of this city. For eight or ten years past he had i been a resident of Fnllerton, and came here March 1st to attend the funeral of Mr. Matthews, Mis. McKelvey's grand father. On Sunday saorning followiag, March 4, while going to the drug store for medicine, Mr. McKelvey was most brutally and cowardly assaulted by one Jack Egan, knocked down and kicked after down, and from these injuries he never recovered. A post-mortem ex amination was held, the result of which is with the physicians. The funeral services were held st the Methodist church, Rev. Bross preaching the sermon, Rev. Elliott leading iu prayer. The beautiful ritual of the Odd Fellows was observed both at the church and the cemetery, many members of that order and of the Knights of Pythias being present. The deceased leaves his widow and two little daughters, Hazel and Mar garite, aged respectively eight and four years to mourn the loss of a loving hus band and father. Roll ef Hraor.
