Don't forget the day of election, and

A new counterfeit S5 national bank
note has been put into circulation. It
is on the Commercial National Bank of
Providence, B. L, series of 1882, bank
number 20,650. The paper is thick and
stiff and is two pieces pasted together,
no distributed fiber or parallel silk
threads. We have little need to remem
ber these facts, but we know many of
our readers have occasion to do so.
Ada M. Bittenbender, Nebraska's
lady lawyer who has acquired quite a

ganized to publish the book, dramatize
the story, and place it before the general

The great canned-goods center of
the world is Baltimore, and it all started
from one man's work on an ordinary
cook stove a few years ago. While Co
lumbus may be a long time in reaching
the present proportions of the city of

the ditch, giving us both irrigation and
power, and Columbus and vicinity will
be of considerable importance in this
western country.
What to do with the extra horses,
has been quite a question with many of
our farmers. To keep them over
another winter, seems like a waste of
feed as the prospect for a better, or so
good a price in the spring is very slim.
There is no local market to speak of,
but we notice that a commission firm at
South Omaha, reports sales of spring
colts at 812; yearlings and 2-year-olds
321; Wyoming wild horses $25, and so
on. It might be well for those who are
overstocked to see what they can do
with the commission men.
A. M. Jennings fell upon a novel
but very effectual way of irrigating gar
den vegetables on a small scale. He
used it on a few tomatoes and cabbage.
Punching holes in the bottoms of fruit
cans, he sunk them alongside the plants
and filled them with water. The result
was very satisfactory, but A. M. thinks
it would be just a trifle hotter to punch
the holes a little up the side of the can
so as to be free from the falling dirt.
Dig the ditch and get water in abund
ance, not only for garden "sass" but for
field crops. Vote the bonds.
Mrs. Annie N. Smith, wife of W. B.
Smith, a farmer living northwest of
Oconee, died at her home last Wednes
day evening after an illness of only a
few weeks. Mrs. Smith was the oldest
daughter of John M. Kelley, one of the
early settlers of the county. Mrs. Smith
was well known in this city and in her
own community as a woman possessing
unusual cheerfulness of character and
was beloved by all. The funeral ser
vices were held held here Saturday at
the Episcopal church, this city, Bev.
Goodale officiating, and the remains
placed to rest in the Columbus cemetery.
During the recent potato-digging
campaign we heard of a cunning lad who
devised a new method of getting the
tubers out of the ground. We give the
plan, and let it go for what it may prove
to be worth. He has a dog that we will
call Bover, because that is not his name.
The boy would start the soil near a hill
of potatoes and say, "Come here, Bover,
and earn your winter's grub," where
upon the obedient dog would scrape
very vigorously until the potatoes would
be all out. Whether the suggestion will
work a revolution in the harvesting of
tubers remains for the future to deter
mine. The current political gossip is that
the relations between Secretary Morton
(Nebraska's representative in the cabi
net), and President Cleveland are
"strained"; whether this is true or not,
if the power and irrigation bonds are
voted and we get the canal, our business
relations with each other and the rest
of the world, need not be strained, so
far as we are concerned. The farmers
along the ditch can raise immense crops
of specialties and have at home a ready
market, because as soon as they are
ready with their crops, this community,
through the cheap and certain power,
will have abundant mouths to feed, be
cause cheap power will help to give us
many more manufacturing interests
than we now have.
A. L. Bixby gave his appointed lec
ture at the opera house Friday evening
to a good house for Columbus, whose
people do not take kindly to lectures.
Bixby brought all his wit him and if he
hadn't, everybody would have laughed
at everything he Baid just the same,
because it was Bixby who said it. He
introduced his lecture proper by giving
a sketch of his life up to the time when
he moved to Columbus. His picture
showed a life full of all the woes neces
sary for the make up of common mortals,
from the boy herding sheep to the quack
doctor practicing without money or
medicine. But the subject "A Country
Editor" was graphically described
through Bixby's personal experiences.
He said he went into partnership with
one man in Iowa, who bad perfect confi
dence in him, and the man confidenced
him. Everybody makes their mistakes
and he said the present administration
was no exception.

Too Nnmeroan.
Saturday evening a tramp entered
several houses about 9 o'clock, daringly
demanding money. From descriptions
given, it was evidently one fellow who
did it all.
At Julius Rasmuseen's Mrs. Basmus
sen and daughter Anna were in the
sitting room; they heard some one ap
proaching but thought it was Mr. R,
until they were confronted by a man
with a handkerchief tied over his face
below tho eyes and who threatinglyheld
a paring knife raised and demanded
money, and was given a small amount.
At George Bradshaw's the fellow de
manded money of Mrs. Bradshaw; she
told him she had none, whereupon he
called her a liar and just then some one
rapped at the door and the fellow
skipped.
At George Willard's a screen was re
moved and at O. T. Boen's the house was
entered but at either place nothing was
taken.
At Chris. From's, they heard a man
walk around the house, rip a window
screen, and by that time Chris, had
grabbed a chair and slung it through
the sash, but of course the man was
gone, quicker than he came.
Mrs. Gabler was frightened by an un
usual noise and went to the store.
These bold attempts were made be
tween eight and eleven o'clock Saturday
night, and the police have been on the
trail of them ever since.
One of tho boys down from here
says that the reunion of Dodge county
veterans at Fremont Friday was an en
tire success. Although the day was one
of our worst for wind and dust, there
was a largo crowd out; the wind was
howling over the river bluffs south of
the city, bringing with it acres of Saun
ders county dirt. Everybody was there
to have a good time and they had it.
Comrades Lewis, Ellis, Taonal
zier, Miner and Adams hoi
sons of eterans drum cori
Brimblecom, Galley, Tschudy
kins were met at the depot by
mont drum corps and escorted to the
park where arrangements had been
made for speaking and holding the re
union. However, the wind was so high
that after electing the officers for ensu
ing year they left the park and marched
to Love's opera house, headed by Co
lumbus drum corps. The opera house
was packed full from footlights to gal
lery, and the exercises were good.
Music was furnished by the Doraey
brass band and Fremont glee club, in
addition to which as deserving of special
mention was the vocal solo rendered by
Miss Haas. The speakers were John M.
Thurston, W. V. Allen and A. S.
Churchill. The speeches were all good,
Alfen dwelling a little too long talking
about himself. The exercises ended
with a camp-fire in the evening, which
was too late for the Columbus delega
tion to attend, as they came home on
the fast mail.
The Central City Nonpareil makes
a comparative statement between the
commissioner system of running county
matters and the township organization
system, but it leaves out of the calcula
tion two important things, viz: that
Nebraska's township organization sys
tem was framed by politicians who did
so on a popular demand, bnt with the
motive of making it odious in practice;
second, the relative educational value of
the two systems, which is greatly in
favor of township organization, in many
respects. The supervisor comes to the
meetings of the county board, and if he
is a bright, active, forceful, wide-awake
man (as he ought to be), he learns a very
great deal in regard to the workings of
the various county offices; becomes ac
quainted with public business generally;
finds out who of the county officials is
thorough and conscientious in the dis
charge of his duties, and which of them
is like that sort of hired man on the
farm who makes a close estimate of the
least degree of effort that he can put
forth and yet hold down his job; in
short, these men from each township
learn a great deal, and some of it gets to
the ordinary citizens of the townships.
It is very safe to say that since township
organization (even of the defective sort
under existing statutes) those counties
that adopted it have increased wonder
fully in their interest in public matters
of all sorts, and if the exact truth could
be ascertained, the benefits have not
been fairly estimated.
Farm for Sale.
There is no better time than the
present to purchase Nebraska land, be
cause it is just as rich as ever it was, and
is much cheaper this year than it is
likely to be soon again. An investment
now is just the thing for those who have
the spare money. By calling at or ad
dressing The Journal office, we can in
form you of an excellent 400-acre farm
that can be purchased now at a very
reasonable price, and terms. 12sep-tf

The board met Monday afternoon at
4 in the secretary's office, present, Hen
ry, Taylor, Schupbach, Lehman, Turner
and Sup't Williams, Galley being absent
from the city.
After reading and approval of min
utes, the superintendent made his first
monthly report showing the state of the
schools. The number of pupils enrolled
is 633. Some of the departments are
quite full, Mr. Battel's room having
been crowded with additional desks and
still not room enough for the attend
ance, which averaged 60 pupils during
the month. In one day he hears twelve
classes, an average of 30 minutes, and in
one of these he has 43 pupils. In the
discussion of this subject afterwards it
was found that there was a difference
of opinion but all were agreed on di
recting the committee on schools and
teachers to see what could be done in
the way of procuring a suitable room
and a competent teacher, and report to
the board at their earliest convenience.
Bonds of the district, fourteen in
number, $500 each, which might have
been let run to their limit, 15 July, 1904,
and paid some months ago, were pre
sented to the board, canceled. They
were ordered for the present to be placed
on file. The other three of the ten
thousand issue were paid last spring.
Bills were allowed to the amount of
3598.73, the bulk of them being for coal
for the season.
SUte Beading Circle.
This organization has been started
and is having quite a run. It will in
clude local circles under the director
ship of county superintendents. A set
of books are selected at the beginning of
each year, and the first list is on School
Management; Folk Lore; History of
England, which are furnished at nom
inal cost. Examination on these will be
made at the end of the year and dip
lorn as issued, if found worthy.
It is designed to organize a pupils'
reading circle also. Sup't Botbleitner
has a few words to say on the subject:
The reading circle seeks to interest
teachers in a carefully prepared course
of reading, to the end that they may be
better prepared to do the important
work of the school room. That the
reading of these books has proved of
inestimable benefit to the teachers of
the state is established by the united
testimony of those well qualified to
judge.
Like every other intellectual work, the
circle must appeal directly to the in
dividual. This must be largely an in
dividual work. It cannot be done by
proxy. You must read and master it.
It appeals directly to the teachers of the
district schools, because they can do the
work alone just as well as the teachers
of the graded schools. Get your books
and go to work, even if there is not
another reader within ten miles of you.
It is the cheapest school you can pos
sibly enter.
A good book is always worth more
than it costs. This office hopes that the
membership of the class of "94 will at
least number one hundred in Platte
county.
The pleasure and inspiration which
come from comradeship in study, keep
many otherwise solitary readers from
dropping out by the way.
Yours fraternally,
M. M. BOTHLEITNER, Co. Sup't.

the good things done at the meeting was,
that word be sent to the directors of the
canal company that they would all vote
for- the bonds. There are twenty-five
votes south of the river against the
bonds. If the matter is well explained
to them, they may be turned yet. Di
rectors should look to this.

The Fourth Artesian.
Eugene Bacon, the mascot well man,
struck his fourth artesian well in Platte
county on Wednesday last on the John
Williams farm at Postville, seven miles
from Platte Center, 25 feet from the
dwelling. The well is 95 feet deep, the
water fills a 2-inch pipe and is gushing
up outside, so that it will be necessary
in time to put down a larger pipe. It
throws out the best and clearest of
water. Hugh Hughes has done a nice
thing for his nephews and nieces in thus
developing the natural resources of the
farm.
We Sweep the World.

higher in the estimation of the public, in
all especial points, than the Chicago,

only line west of Chicago which runs
