Both bosses of the legislature adjourn
ed Friday evening to meet Monday at 11
o'clock. There ware some rather inter
esting situations divulged when Repre
santative Tanner of this district called
for the fullest publicity of the testimony
taken by the Lobby committee, xue
committee report was of a nature carry
ing severe censure upon ex-Kepreeents-
tive O. 8. Moran. Tanner disclaimed
having any connection whatever with
Vr. Moran. in the matter. Bewick of
Lincoln testified that Moran had ap
proached him and asked to be engaged
to promote the state fair bill. Bewick
replied that the bill was standing on its
merits. The testimony shows that then
Moran proposed to secure the vote and
services of Tanner for the bill for $100 if
100 were nut up for himself also. He
also proposed to secure Hamilton's sup
port for $10 and said he could get otner
members to support the bill for $5 each.
Mr. Moran said he was in Lincoln taking
hatha for a chronic ailment. He denied
- - - ' a.
that he was in any way authorized to act
for Mr. Tanner, and denied making a
food many of the statements attributed
to him. This is chapter I in a matter
concerning the present representative or
this float district, and an ex-representa
tive from this county. Whether there
will ever be another chapter vouchsafed
the public may be known when either of
these gentlemen come up for nomination
by a reform democratic convention.
Theron Nye, one of the pioneers of
Nebraska, died at his home in Fremont,
last Wednesday night He was born in
New York, July 26, 1828. His early life
was spent on a farm. At twenty-five he
began work in a drug store. After five
years, he went into merchandise business
on his own account; finding himself no
better off at the end of three years, he
came to Nebraska, landing at Fremont
with only a few dollars in his pocket
In 1860, he went into partnership with
his brother-in-law, S. B. Coleon. They
freighted across the plains until the
Union Pacific railroad was finished. In
1866 the grain firmpf Nye k Coleon was
formed, the origin of the mammoth bus
iness now conducted under the name of
Nye & Schneider company, and amount
ing annually to several millions of dol
lars. Mr. Nye was an enterprising citi
zen, and was honored by being elected
as county treasurer four years, county
supervisor three years. He was the first
mayor of Fremont He was well known
by many of the older readers of The
Journal, and highly respected by alL
John Mcrpht, a passenger on Union
Pacific train No. 3, Monday morning en
route from New York to the coast com
mitted suicide by shooting himself twice
in the head with a No. 38 Smith & Wes
son revolver. The shooting was done
while the train was at Chappel, this state,
and death ensued soon after the train
reached Sidney. The shooting was evi
dently done during a fit of temporary
insanity. The deceased seems to have
been an unusual character. Papers,
letters, books, eUx, in his possession
show that he was the assistanfengineer
on the battleship Oregon, and was with
this vessel during all her service in the
Spanish-American war. He accompan
ied the vessel to Manila, where he was
discharged. He immediately entered
the service of the English navy, from
which he was discharged later, and soon
after returned to the United States and
was apparently going west to re-enter
the U. S. naval service. He has a brother
at Williams, Arizona, and a niece and
nephew at college in San Diego, CaL

There is no surer safe guard against all
degrees of mental unsoundness than a
habit of self-control. As men of quick
blood may fall dead in moments of high
excitement so may lesser disturbances
oft repeated, unsettle the rational facul
ties. Machinery that is loosely set tends
to jar itself to pieces, and the agitations
of ungoverned emotion may gradually
produce an "unstable equilibrium" of the
nervous system, and predispose the
brigbest man or woman to be entirely
upset by a sudden crisis of passion,
alarm, loss or ecstasy. For joy, bice
grief, anger, fear or appetite requires the
gentle restraint of reason. The asylums

Under this heading we purpose giving,
from week to week, such information and
speculation as may be of current inter
est Ed. Journal.
The announcement of the appointment
of Colonel William Carey Sanger of New
xork to be assistant secretary of war,
marking the retirement of Mr. Meikle-
john from that position, has elicited con
siderable comment, although it was not
altogether unexpected. Mr. Meiklejohn
has held public office so long and so con
tinuously that it is a novelty for him to
stand as a private citizen. While he had
given it out that he would not be con
tinued in the war office for a second term.
he had hoped to have secured a title to a
seat in the senate by this time, so that
the transition would have been only from
one end of Pennsylvania avenue to the
other. Some of the politicians here are
inclined to regard his early retirement
as an indication that the administration
is not particularly concerned in his cam
paign, otherwise he would have been
retained until the senatorial contest had
reached an outcome. Personal differ
ences with Secretary Boot are supposed
also to have had something to do with
the prompt acceptance of Mr. Meikle
john's resignation. Ever since the open
hag of the legislature it has been asserted
that Mr. Meiklejohn was the administra
tion candidate for senator, and this im
pression has been earefallv nnned hv
his friends and managers as a valuable

. Lincoln, Marsh 9..190L
Nebraska bow has poiatets from three
states on the senatorial qaestion. At
the last moment the Oregoa legielatare
dropped the leading, caadidates and
elected a dark horse. Moataaa did the
Line. Delaware had a few repablicana
who held out against the corporation
boss who was tryiag to bay his way into
the senate, and the legislature ad joarned
withoat electing.
Ji the present legislature felt incliaed
to put the state to the expanse it might
provide a oommittee to investigate the
defect fusion administration. The dis
closures would hit nearly every "reform
er'' who has held office. Meserve could
be made to tell about the interest on the
school money, and about the price of bis
bond. Porter could be questioaed about
bis illegal fees. Cornell could be asked
to explain how he saddled his relatives
on the state, and allowed them to double
up on salaries and fees. Wolfe would
have much embarrassment in telling
about the school land desk. The board
of purchase and supplies could explain
the purchase of the worthless clothing
and the 12,000 pounds of rotten butter
for the Hastings asylum. The printing
board would have a chance to tell about
the purchase of worthless stationery.
The real price paid for the new carpets
and wall paper might be ascertained.
The public could get a lesson in "reform"
which would last for many years, but the
investigation would cost a good deal of
money.
The recent report of the "hold-up"
committee of the legislature puts in a
most unfavorable light O. S. Moran, a
former "reform" member of the legisla
ture. It seems that he had started a
sort of bucket shop to control the price
of legislative votes on corporation bills.
It will be remembered that this is the
same Moran .who was a member of the
notorious "Mntz sniffling committee"
appointed by the fusion legislature of
1897 to besmirch the characters of
republican officials.
v Under the present conditions the out
look for the election of senators is not
promising, audit is quite possible that a
movement may be made for all the can
didates now in the race to retire and let
the legislature pick up some new mate
rial. The folly of attempting to force
the election of any man against the pro
test of any part of the rank and file of
the party is now apparent In case the
most objectionable candidate does not
soon retire, it is probable they will all
have to -get out before an election can
be had.

Recently the Union Pacific put sur
veyors to work to run a line between
Stromsburg and Central City. The dis
tance between the two points is a little
more than twenty miles. With this gap
closed it would be possible for the com
pany to give good service from Lincoln,
connecting with the main line at Central
City. No official statement has been
made that the line will be built, but it
ia said that the company is distributing
ties along the line south of Valley and
that it will relay the track on this part
of the system this year. Some railroad
men say enough ties have been unloaded
along the line from Valley to Stroms
burg to relay the track aad to place ties
on the twenty miles of new road. The
building of thia line would be a great
benefit to the company, because by asing
it in time of congestion of traffic on the
east end it would practically afford
double track between Central City and
Valley. The distance would be practi
cally the same, although easier grades
would be found on the old, or main line.

in one of the dictionaries. Mr. Spoerry
says it means "Soloman's Seal" in Eng

"Scan de Solomon" in French; "8tgillnm
Solomonis" ia Latin, four languages in
which it is abbreviated "as", aad it is
intended as a mark legalising a paper.

Something more of less interesting
to Columbus readers of The Journal
will be found in another plaoe, quoted
from the Lincoln Journal. There are
some indications that what there is talk
ed of may be contemplated, and for the
reasons set forth emergency conditions
of weather, traffic and travel. The fact
yet remains, as it always has been, that
local traffic of railroads should be en
couraged and stimulated, by every means
in the power of transportation compan
ies, and this is evidently the prime pur
pose of the present management. Years
ago, when houses were very scarce on
these prairies, and the nutrient grasses
were not being utilized for feeding sheep,
cattle and horses, The JotjbnaIi begged
of the Union Pacific railroad company to
put itself with the hardy settlers and
frankly tell them that for a short term of
years they would bring them their coal
and lumber at such rates as would
encourage men to settle and improve
this vast extent of rich soil, looking
mainly to the future local traffic for the
return of their investment together with
interest compounded annually. The
policy was not adopted by the then man
agers of the road, but in spite of all, the
hardy settlers of this country have vir
tually ceased to erect for dwelling
houses, school-houses, or even as shelters
for stock, the familiar sod walls and
roofs of the sixties, and we suppose that
nobody now thinks it necessary to burn
corn for fuel. Probably, the best paying
portions of the great railways of Iowa,
Kansas and Nebraska today, all things
considered, are the local lines known as
feeders. As with individuals, so with
railroad corporations, there is always
room for improvement, and it is usual
that the progress be in the direction in
dicated by past good endeavor.
Washington Hardy of Leigh, is in
the city this week visiting his son, C. C.
Journal readers will remember that he
was the man who fell eighty-five feet to
the bottom of a well on the farm of
Herman Johannes, north of Loseke's.
That was on the 13th day of June, 1892,
and he was brought to St Mary's hos
pital, where he was cared for until he
was able to walk, and was discharged
January 24, 1893. He is to this day very
gratefnl to the Sisters at the hospital
for their kindly attentions while he was
there. Mr. Hardy, in reply to some
questions, tells us that at the time of
the accident, he weighed about a hun
dred and sixty-five pounds; that he had
his hand on the curbing when the strap
broke; that he went down like a pile
driver, the bucket being driven five
inches into the ground; his left arm
was broke; his feet turned upside down
and both ankles broke; his left leg was
broken, and right knee put out of joint;
he tied the rope let down for his rescue,
with his right hand, his heart stopping
its pulsations twice while he was doing
the tying. He is now 65 years old,
weighs 204 pounds, and finds a wonder
ful satisfaction in life.
I wish to call the attention of the
public to what was done by the board of
health of the city of London at the time
the grip was epidemic there a few years
ago. It seems that they placed bulletins
in publio places telling the people that
when taken with the grip they should
drink freely of lemon juice diluted with
water, or strong lemonade. This should
be taken hot If this was done in the
beginning they would need no other
medicine. In the meantime take every
precaution against taking cold. One
thing is certain hot lemon juice or lem
onade is a great remedy for influenza and
colds. Brooklyn Eagle.
