Daffy has decided to "ran for oouaty attorney" as an independent democrat, by petition, Mnot so much be cause of the emoluments of office, as to rebuke the rotten element who plugged and captared the couaty convention," so he aays. In other words, he is acting the.reformer in the "reform" party, so- called, for the good of' that party, pri marily, and for the good of everybody else, secondarily. We are asked to give the dimensions of the famous Moscow bell, said to be the largest in the world. The Interna tional cyclopedia gives them: "Above 21 feet ia bight and diameter, and weigh ing 193 tone. It was 'cast in 1734, but fell down duriag a fire in 1737, was in jured, aad remained sunk in the earth till 1837, when it was raised, and now forms the dome of a chapel made by ex cavating the apace below it." The steeple at the German Luther an church this city, on the northwest corner of Fourteenth and M street, now being erected by the Roth Brothers, is to be seventy-two feet high from the ground, thirty feet from the roof, and to be surmounted by a cross, made of sheet iron. The tower is being covered by dimension shingles. The bell which is to be placed in the tower, is to be 52 inches across and to weigh 1400 pounds. Forty dollars an acre for land, im proved, is not an unusual price nowa days in Nebraska. The tendency is upward right along. One speculator, talking the other day, said: "The farmer works hard all summer; is making lots of money, and in winter time, when work is a little slack, be does his think ing and planning as to what he will do with his extra money, and mostly, he is concluding these times to invest it in more land." The Creston Statesman says that: J. E. Eggleston died July 24, aged 52 years, 5 months and 19 days, and was buried in the old Creston cemetery about four and a half miles southeast of town....

A committee on consti tution and by-laws was appointed, con sisting of Carl Hohen, Will Lehman and Jess Becher, who are to report at the next meeting, Angust 14, when it is ex pected a permanent organization will be made. Two dollars is the initiation fee at present, and there is every prospect of a good clnb. It is desirable that all who wish or expect to join, do so at once, as the number will be limited. Down in Missouri, according to the St. Joseph News, the county judges think it is high time that the jails cease to be simply lodging houses for va grants, and the purpose is to enforce the law, which among other things provides that when a man is sentenced to pay a fine and does not put up the money, he can be made to work at $1 a day break ing rock, which the sheriff is authorized to sell to any town or city, or tnrn over, by order of the county court, to any overseer of the roads, to be used to the best advantage of the public. A good law, if enforced. Grand Island is to have a street fair from August 27 to September 1, and there can be little doubt from the way they are going at it, bnt it will be one of the best of the season in the state. The Columbus City Band is one of about a dozen bands that have been honored by requests for proposals for playing dur ing the "campaign," the bands to receive full pay, and expected to put in eight hours a day.

There is no discount on the Columbus City Band and we hope they will get the work to da Section one of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show trains suffered a severe col lision near Milwaakee Junction, MicIl, shortly before daylight Sunday morning resulting in the smashing of a show em ployes' sleeping car containing some forty sleeping inmates. One of the latter ia dead, and nine others in De troit hospitals saffering more or less from in jaries. The caboose was forced on top of the sleeper, which was filled with sleeping tent and canvas men. All the victims, it is said, will recover ex cept three most seriously injured, and among them all, we note no' Nebraska names. Charles Wooster of the Silver Creek Tunes has for several years been a f u aioaist, costing into the crowd on the silver republican line, bnt he is utterly opposed to the re-election of Gov. Poyn tr, giving, numerous reasons for his course. What between the mid roaders and the thoroughly "sick-at-the-stom-ach" faaionists, Mr. Poynter's services as governor are not likely to be called for after the close of his present term. The situation in brief is about as Mr. Wooster pats it when he says: "If a man wont vote for Pbynter, the only proper thing I or him to do is to vote for Dietrich. There ia no use doing taiaga by halves." 3 XXXXXXXXOOOOOOOOOQOQOOOOOOQQOOQOOQOC Free Buggy !

The school board are asking for suitable ground for school-house site. See the conditions under which they are working, and if you have land that would be suitable, you will 'be a public benefactor if you make them an offer that will compensate you well, and at the same time enable the board to give that part of the city school facilities that will undoubtedly be to their advantage in many ways. Pinkeye has been somewhat preva lent among horses lately. Among the symptoms are: they don't care to eat; they get blind like; eyes sore. A horse owner who gives us the foregoing "signs" of the ailment, says that the an imals should not be given grain, except ground; if worked at all, not overheated working while sick is what kills. One year the ailment was so prevalent that in many cities of the United States, oxen were substituted for horses as draft animals, and there was great inconven ience for several months. The value of right music-teaching in schools cannot well be overestimated, whether you consider the effect on the individual pupil or upon the school ss a social community, temporarily and statedly together for discipline and learning. Both a science and an art, its proper study and practice become of untold value in general culture, and too much emphasis cannot be given to its use as an essential part of the school course. When there is a concerted, de termined effort on the part of citizens to develop the natural resources of a country, the effect of their work can readily be seen, and so it is, only in a far higher degree and to a much greater ex tent when the inner kingdoms are de veloped as they should be. Music often assures the presence of unsuspected powers; latent abilities; harmonizes all the inner forces; helps bring them to perfection, and keeps them in healthy action. A late number of Scribner says: "It is what girls and boys get into their souls by music that counts. Germany is, of modern countries, that in which this is handled as a form of spiritual gymnastics, and there the whole topic receives the order of attention which it deserves.'' Dodge county, by her county clerk, is advertising forbids for seventy Dodge county bonds for $1,000 each, interest not to exceed 5 per cent per annum pay able semi-annually and to run 20 years, and to be optional after 10 years from date.

One of these is .that it is one of many instances showing the wonderful change that has some over the country in the last four years; when school-districts, cities or coaaties are compelled to borrow money, and go into the mar ket for it, how much better they can do! Another is that of the four to five thou sand people who read Thk Joubkai. there are several who may wish to make an ia vestment of this sort.

Miss Edna Richardson began pro ceedings in the district court Saturday againt County Superintendent C. W. Crum, to prevent him from revoking or annulling a teacher's certificate granted by him in June of last year. In the petition it is set forth that the superintendent threatened to revoke the certificate because the plaintiff did not attend the county teachers' institute and for no other reason. It is further alleged that plaintiffs reason for not at tending the institute was that she was fatigued and broken in health. District Judge Cones has granted a temporary injunction restraining the county superintendent from revoking the certificate on the grounds men tioned. We clip the foregoing from a recent copy of the Madison Chronicle. It doubtless required considerable courage on the part of the teacher to do even- so much in defence of her rights. Under the law, there is (as doubtless there ought to be), more than a little discretion, given to the super intendent, and' this is one of the very good reasons why voters should be ex ceedingly careful whom they elect to such offices. Our Nebraska statutes, no doubt, do give the superintendent authority to annul a certificate for the reason given above, but the letter of the law is some times the biggest club that a bully in office can use. Tan Jot7BNAi is not acquainted with either of the parties to this suit, but we are of the opinion, and there are numer ous others like-minded, that Nebraska statutes. concerning school matters need considerable amendment. In the meantime, a little of the poet Pope's theory may stand us in stead: "For forms of goremsaeat let fools contest. What's best administered ia best." Select the best persons available for official and other responsible positions, and support them vigorously in their judicious efforts for the public good. An interesting letter dated July 1 from Archibald J. Sampson, United States envoy and minister to Ecuador, S. A., was received Saturday. Mr. Sampson has been in that far-away country the past three years and writes many interesting anecdotes. We quote from the letter dated July 1: "The Fourth will be' a 'bur day' with yon.

There is net much to say in regard to the work of woman in this country. Her work is to work like the hardest worked horse, carrying on her back a load of over 100 pounds for ten miles or more at a stretch, if of the lower class. If of the higher class, her life mission is to go to church very often, read nothing, and spend her time in idleness Tou msy guess how backward the press of this country is when in this city of 80,000 in habitants they can only support one daily paper, and no weekly.

Miss Jennie E. Jackson, a deacoaess from the Methodist Hospital and Dea coness' Home of Omaha, was in the city Sunday, and occupying the Methodist pulpit at the morning and evening ser vices, read the scripture lessons, and gave a detailed statement of the manner of work done by the institution. It was organized in 1891, four workers. Now they have twenty-six workers with six physicians in regular attendance. They have four wards in the building; thirty four beds. They have had 915 patients during the past year, 390 of them abso lutely free. If two persons apply at once at the hospital for treatment, one of them well able to pay, and the other too poor to pay, the latter is taken in rather than the former (if there is not spare room for both) because the one with means can. find entrance elsewhere. The hospital is non-sectarian in every respect. It is the desire to erect in Bemia park, where a site of 2 acres has been secured a hospital building which will accommodate at least 150 patients at one time, and $53,000 have already been raised for that purpose. The estimated cost of the new structure -is $80,000, and to this sum was added by contributions at the Methodist church Sunday morning $72.50; evening $24 and on Monday from citizens enough to make the total $107.00, fifty-seven of it beiag cash dowa.
