Tho G. A. R wish to express thanks
to the W. R C. and those who assisted
in making a very pleasant evening on the
16th, and to the following persons in
particular for helping in the program:
R. L. Rossiter, Miss Abbio Hurd, Miss
Mary Turner, Mrs. Brindley, G. A.
Schroeder and Mrs. Warren. Over ten
dollars was cleared for tho "boys" in
helping pay expenses.
One of the signs of the times as
regards tho initiation of moro diversified
agriculture in this portion of the state
is fonnd in the fact that one gentleman
at North Loup has undertaken to raise
several acres of vine seeds for a Sioux
City seed firm, and another has just re
ceived a proposition from a prominent
seed firm of Rochester, N. Y., relative to
raising 225 pounds of tomato seeds.
L. A. Wiley, the republican candi
date for councilman for the Second ward,
is the well-known groceryman on Olive
street, and one of the most generous
hearted men in the city. While he
would be economical of the city's money,
he would be in favor of no penny-wise,
pound-foolish policy give every man his
due, all that justly belongs to him. Mr.
Wiley will, when elected, give his best
attention to the office, to which his fel
low-citizens intend electing him.
Julius Krueger, says the Humphrey
Democrat, died at his home in this city,
Tuesday afternoon, March 19, 1895, at
the age of 62 years and 16 days, death
being caused by consumption. Deceas
ed was an old settler of Platte county,
and was a member of the G. A. R post
at Columbus, members of that organiza
tion here performing their last sad
duties to their comrade. The deceased
leaves a family consisting of a wife and
three children. Funeral services were
held Wednesday at the German Baptist
church.

Several farmers hereabouts are feed
ing cottonseed meal to their stock, and
claim that cattle like it and fatten on it
as readily- as corn. It is a great deal
cheaper. We noticed several wagon
loads going out into the country last
Friday. Madison Chronicle.
We find the following going the
round of exchanges, but cannot vouoh
for the truth of it: "
"Wood Houseman went down from
Genoa to Columbus to meet his bride
and get married. The girl, however, did
not see him when his train arrived, and
went forward to Genoa, while Wood
hung around Columbus for two days
before he discovered what had hap
pened. They eventually were married,
however."
O. C. Shannon, the republican can
didate for city clerk, handles the pen of
a ready writer, and it is safe to say
would dispatch business at a lively rate.
During the sessions of the city council,
much of the time is engaged in reading
the minutes, and with one who would
do this rapidly and yet accurately, the
business of the council would be fur
thered considerably. It is probably not
too much to say that no man ever occu
pied the office who made a better clerk
than Mr. Shannon will make.
Thursday afternoon last during the
sand storm the U. P. branch train to
Cedar Rapids was stopped near Belgrade
several hours by a sand drift that was
packed over the tracks like a bed of
mortar. The engine ran through the
mass quite a distance before it was
'stopped, when it was discovered to be
off the track and some little damage
done to its pilot, etc. The wrecking
train was called to the scene of the acci
dent, put things to rights and brought
the damaged engine down Friday morn
ing, and thence to Omaha for repairs.
M. Whitmoyer, the republican can
didate for councilman in the Third ward,
is an expert in the law-making business, f
and has served his ward before in the
city council, giving most excellent satis
faction. It goes without saying that ho
will be a competent, pains-taking coun
cilman, always wide-awake to the inter
ests of the city and to all of them. Such
a man, a largo proporty owner himself,
and in a business that brings him in
constant contact with people of all
classes and conditions, he is fitted by
education and native ability to make
one of the very best conncilmen the city
has ever had.
Let there be no mistake made in
regard to aid for seed and grain. There
is no charity or no donation your fellow-citizens
are to furnish you seed for
sowing and for feeding your work horses,
until you raise a crop of corn or oats.
When you raise a crop, you pay your
loan, and everybody will be glad to see
you prosper, as you never did before.
Let us all do tho best we can. Those of
us who have land more than we need to
work ourselves, let us be as liberal as
possible in seeing that it is utilized for
tho good of tho country. Let us not
leave anything undone that will bring
us prosperity. We can all help a little.
George Spooner, a former citizen of
this city, now of Denver, arrived here
Friday last and will remain several days.
In a conversation with him he said he
never saw such depression in all kinds
of business as the people in the west are
now experiencing. About four weeks
ago lie was in Sacramento, California,
and at one five-cent soup houso there
were 1,500 men waiting to got their
frugal meal, a good many not having the
nickel to pay were set to work chopping
kindling wood. In Denver a good many
unemployed men are "washing up" the
sands of Cherry creek, from which they
get of the precious metal upwards of
fifty cents per day.
J. H. Galley, republican candidate
for councilman of the First ward, has
served his constituents tho past year
with perfect satisfaction, looking after
every interest of the city entrusted to his
care, with close fidelity. He attends to
city affairs just the same as he does his
own, promptly and thoroughly, giving
the same his individual attention, neg
lecting or slighting nothing the least.
Mr. Galley is very thorough in every
thing ho undertakes, and his work on the
council has commended itself to all the
members who have worked with him in
either committee or full council. A vote
for Mr. Galloy, will be a vote for honest,
capablo public work, just such as you
would like to see all the time, by all
officials.
The republican party is a practical
party, believes in common-sense me
thods. The head of tho ticket, W. A.
McAllister, candidate for mayor, has had
ample experience in city legislation, and
understands all the ins and outs of our
city government, from the sweeping of
a street crossing to the looking after the
financial interests of tho city, and no
dollar will be allowed to wander out of
its place. Unlike the democratic party,
the republicans do not trafHc in idols,
their candidates are made of the self
same clay that ordinary mortals are
made of, just the same material; even
onr mayor, while a man well informed in
ever' particular, having lived in Ne
braska all his life and grown up with the
growth of the people of the sate, would
resent any idea of superiority from other
officials. No idols here.
J. S. Freeman was at Fremont Thurs
day in the interest of the Iowa. Lake
Superior and Gulf Railroad Company.
An organization was effected with J. S.
Freeman as president. It is proposed
that the Nebraska company take the
road from where it is built from Bolivar
to Beaumont, Texas, and from there the
line is to run through Nebraska, to
Dakota. It is said the Nebraska divis
ion will not run east of Arlington, nor
west of the Sixth principal meridian. It
is a little strange that the ordinary
means of building railroads are not taken
in thie case. Long before this, the air
would havo been vocal with high-sounding
praises of the new railroad, its far
reaching effects on traffic, and what it
might reasonably be expected to bring
in to tho various cities along its route,
but there has been nothing of this at all.
This is the railroad that The Journal
described at length about fifteen months
ago when Mr. Rundell of Wayne was
here, and set the scheme forth at the
Maennerchor hall. It is intended to
make this railroad a working model of
the Golden rule, from first to last every
thing according to the priaciple of right
between man and man. Can't we help
Mr. Freeman to bnild his road, and help
build it throggh Platte county?

Wo clip the following from the Des
Moines Daily News of March 21st:
Mrs. Nira George, wife of Thomas
George, died this morning at i o'clock at
the family residence, No. 821 West Nine
teenth street, after an illness of about
two weeks, la grippe developing into
pneumonia. Mrs. George was the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Cyrus Moore
and was born at Granville, Licking
county. Ohio, 57 years ago, and lived
thereuntil her marriage in 1857, when
she removed to Cadiz, Ohio, which was
tho family home until 18C4, when they
removed to Eddyville, Iowa. Thoy cnico
to Des Moines in 1867 and havo liwd
here ever since. The husband, two sons
and a daughter survive her, tho children
being Russell and Oscar Georgo and Mrs.
J. A. Dyer. Mrs. George died strong in
the Christian faith. Relatives in Ohio
have been notified and the funeral will
bo held tomorrow at 3 o'clock.
The Omaha Herald of tho 21st says
tho motion for the now trial in the Ryan
will contest has been filed. Besides the
usual run of alleged errors, on account
of which the new trial is asked, especial
exception is taken to instruction No. 9,
relating to the wills of priests made
since tho passage of the Baltimore
decree, a translation of which was pub
lished a few days ago. The jury broke
the will of the priest and it is claimed
this instruction, which has an important
bearing on ecclesiastical law, was largely
instrumental in affecting their decision.
In giving the instruction the court held
that any law, rule, recommendation or
exhortation of any church or other
organization of which the testator may
be a member which limits his freedom of
action or puts him under any control,
moral or religious, in tho bestowal of his
property, constitutes undue influence.
Tho judge referred to the Baltimore
decree and said that if the jury found
this had that influence or was binding
on tho priest the will must bo broken.
