George W. Brown of Cedar Rapids
arrived in the city Sunday evening after
a five weeks' visit with relatives and
friends at various places in the east,
where he was accompanied by his dau
ghter Clara, who stopped at Omaha to
visit with her sister, Mrs. Chas. Perkins,
and is expected here today. They went
as far east as Washington, D. C, the
trip to Mount Vernon being one of the
most interesting incidents of the jour
ney. Fred. Gottschalk had a little ex
perience Thursday that is unusual with
him. Near Harry Reed's his horses (one
a youngish colt) got gay, and Mr. Gotts
chalk hit him with a stick, which made
him all the more lively, resulting in a
short passage in the ditch at the side of
the road, out of which they jumped,
breaking a wheel of the wagon and
throwing Mr. Gottschalk to the ground,
from which he got up quickly, showing
no injury.

ently in better health than usual until a
few days ago, when a sudden change
appeared, and the friends decided to
take her home, with the above sad re
sult. Mis. Boon's mother, Mrs. Olbe,
had been with her for several weeks.
E. A. Stockslager of Humphrey was
in the city Friday on business. He says
that the speech of CoL E. R. Hntcnina
of Des Moines, recently delivered at
Humphrey, was a model of political
campaigning no abuse of the opposi
tion; a strcng foundation of facts, with
opportunity given to question the state
ment of them; sound argument based
upon the facts. The meeting, also, was
a model one, the audience being respect
fully attentive. There is no doubt bat
some fusion voters saw the issues of the
campaign aa republicans see them.
The republican meeting at Duncan
Thursday evening was held in the
school-house which was crowded with

We are informed that the clubs
being organized by the opponents of the
republicans in this county thia year
outside of the towns are generally called
democratic clubs, and that the demo
cratic county officials are mainly doing
the working with a view to special ben
efits next year, in other words, endeav
oring to secure a favorable answer to the
question, What are my
chances for
J nomination
( election )
to the
office of
- next year? When there
is any smoke in sight, it is not usually
difficult to know which way the wind is
blowing.
la American history Altgeld is a
noted character because in June, 1893,
aa governor of Illinois, he pardoned cer
tain Chicago anarchists, and again in
July 1894, by his bitter, public criticism
of President Cleveland for ordering out
Federal troops to suppress the great
railroad strike in Chicago. The mails
of the United States on the trains were
being obstructed; lives and property of
the city were likewise endangered, and
the action of President Cleveland met
with the hearty approval of the great
body of the American people of all par
ties, excepting anarchists and their sym
pathizers.
Arrangements are being made to
place the telegrams announcing election
returns next Tuesday night on a large
canvas in the street between the Meri
dian hotel and the First National bank.

canvas with a stereopticon lantern with
in two minutes after received, and the
plates will be turned so that they can be
read on either side of the street. Be
tween telegrams, colored pictures will
be exhibited, and the band has been en
gaged to furnish music for the evening.
The expenses will be paid by politicians
of any belief. The returns will be ex
hibited as long as they are received at
the telegraph office.
W. H. Dean of the vicinity of Cres
ton was in the city Saturday, and while
at the court house on business learned
that the certificate of nomination of
Neils Olson for supervisor of district
No. 1, comprising Creston, Sherman and
Grand Prairie townships, had not been
received at the county clerk's office, the
time-limit having expired. Clerk Phil
lips said that he had learned the fact
when he came to make up copy for the
printer for running on the township
tickets. He informed J. D. Stires of the
republican county central committee of
the facts, and that he could not order
the name placed upon the ballot with
out having in hand the certificate of
nomination. Mr. Dean was sure that
the certificate had been duly made out
and started on its destination. It is a
very important matter to the tax-payers
of district No. 1 and also to the county,
because Mr. Olson is one of the very best
men ever occupying that important
office; thoroughly understands its du
ties, and has beyond donbt saved to the
people of Platte county thousands of
dollars in his former discharge of duties
as supervisor. Vote for Olson.
A man who gave his address as W.
H. Harter, Liberty, Kentucky, came here
one day last week, and within a few
hours negotiated for a 240-acre tract of
land at $40 an acre near the city. Mr.
H. drew a sight draft for $550, payable
to himself, and asked the real estate firm
who sold him the land to indorse it for
him, but they were not engaged in that
line of business; then Mr. Harter rented
an. empty store building, engaged the
services of a local auctioneer and gave it
forth that he would keep on hands a
large stock of goods. We have heard
that he borrowed $5.00 from the auc
tioneer, afterwards voluntarily return
ing nearly all of it. Several of the of
ficials had their eye on Mr. Harter by
this time, because he had begun to show
considerable interest in them, enough Co
awaken suspicion, and it occurred to
Sheriff Byrnes that he answered the
description of a man wanted at Falls
City for forgery, and Mr. Harter waa ac
cordingly arrested, and that fact com
municated to Sheriff Hoeaack of Rich
ardson county, who arrived here Satur
day, accompanied by John PowelL a
real estate man. They identified him as
the man wanted at Falls City on two
criminal charges, and it also aonears
that he has been at Red Oak, Iowa, get
ting money under false pretences of
some sort or other. Mr. Harter shook
hands with Mr. "Powell and acted as
though he regarded what he had done
with him, in the light of a laughable
joke. It is osx understanding that he
bad forged a deed on a piece of land,
and then, through Mr. Powell had ne
gotiated a loan on the same, thus leav
ing the money-Ioaner with no security.
A. reward has been advertised for several
by detectives for him. Harter

George W. Turner, under date of
Houston, Texas, Oct. 21, among other
things writes: "San Antonio is about
the nicest town I have seen in the south.
There are a good many northern people
there the town 13 clean and prosperous
looking and the people more sociable
than at any place we have been. Some
of the street are narrow, houses low and
old-fashioned, reminding one of the old
towns in Spain and Italy, especially in
the Mexican quarter. We met several
old-time cowboys that had been with
the Wild West in former years. Dave
Loeb lives there, is married and has a
bright little daughter. He wishes to be
remembered to all his Columbus friends.
All along the road here you can see
effects of the Hood. Just crossed a river
he writes while on the train ou a new
pile bridge, where we could see the
wreckage of an iron bridge that had
gone out. Back from the river though
you can notice nothing out of the way.
We are traveling through the cotton
belt and it is rather nice looking, though
mostly picked. Outside of that there is
not much to attract the eye. Buildings
usually low frame ones, built up on
stilts so the air can circulate under
them, and I reckon that it gets hotter in
the summer time than you can imagine.
The rural people here, as a rule, look
lazy and dirty, and as though they had
no interest in anything outside of them
selves and negroes in abundance ...I
haven't the least idea that I should care
