Affairs of great local importance are constantly coming before the city coun cil and mayor for .their action. The republican party is noted for doing the pnblic business on straight and fair business principles. Let us make a showing of what can be done in this line. A city government in the great Lincoln's phrase "of the people, by the people and for the people." Tuesday afternoon of last week little Allen Spear of Genoa, so says the Leader, met a very sudden death. A dray loaded with flour was passing the school house, the driver stopping his team to keep the little boys from climb ing on to the dray, and was not aware that they were again attempting to climb aboard. Allen fell under the wheel and was crushed to death. Tuesday afternoon, March 19, at 2 o'clock, at the German Lutheran church. Rev. H.

To the many readers of The Journal who have relatives in Berno, Switzer land, the dispatch from there under date of March 21, will be of special interest: "A vast glacier slide from the Rossboden Alps has destroyed Sampleon street in Berne. For a distance of a mile and a quarter the forests have been swept down and the valley is filled with block ice. Two persons are reported killed." Bargains! Great Bargains in all heavy goods.

Fitzpat- riek. tf Ogalalla was the center of a big storm raging from Saturday night to Monday. Northwestern Nebraska suff ered loss of stock, and all trains were blocked for many hours. Four west bound passenger trains were tied np in Ogalalla. A snow plow with three loco motives attached stuck in a cut one and a halt miles west of Ogalalla. The storm was the worst of the kind experienced in ten years.

A petition has been drawn up and is being signed by interested property holders asking the city council to open Sixteenth street across the B. k M. track. Sixteenth street is the one running east and west in front of the city hall and north of the school house building. Several new houses have been built on this street east of the B. k M. track and naturally the owners want an outlet to the business part of the city. Central City Nonpareil. The assessors of Madison' county have held a meeting and agreed to make assessments on the following valuations: Land, one-fifth of full valuation; 'farm er's driving horses, from $5 to $125; stallions and jacks, $100 to $600; race horses, $25 to $200; cattle, one year and under, $8 to $15; two years old, $15 to $25; thoroughbred cattle, $25 to $80; mules, $5 to $125; sheep, $2 to $5; hogs at fair value of market price on first day of April; grain held for speculation to be assessed. Chronicle. Huffman k RolltnB are preparing to sow 900 acres to alfalfa this spring, mak ing a total of 1100 acres. They consider it the most profitable crop by far that can be raised in Antelope county. It yields well and cattle fed alfalfa put on flesh more rapidly with one-half the amount of corn than those fed prairie hay. Farmers generally are nrged to experiment more extensively with this grass. It is a money maker wherever it can be established, being valuable as feed for hogs as well as cattle. Neligh Leader. Robert Ridgway,Amboy, Ind., claims to have discovered, and tested fonr years before offering to sell, a method of im munizing pigs before birth, through the mother's blood; after birth, through the mother's milk; curing sick hogs by flushing and cleansing the bowels and entire system, and that his methods have been tested on over 20,000 bogs the past year. He says he has sold to over 2,000 of the best farmers and breeders in the United States! This little para graph' is no advertisement for Mr. Ridg way, but only a news item, which may be of interest to hundreds of Journal readers, who believe in investigation. and the prompt adoption of what proves right C. H. Walker of state reputation is very enthusiastic (or was the last time we met him) concerning the effectiveness of the vaccine method of treatment as a preventive of hog cholera. The Surprise Citizen says that recently he took a couple of his pigs that were made cholera proof before birth to Omaha to be tested, to show that they are cholera proof. The experiment is to be conducted under the supervision of the agricultural editor of the Omaha World-Herald. We always knew that Charley was a thinker, and in a practical way, but if he has dug up "out of his inner consciousness," a preventive of hog cholera, it will be worth billions of dollars to the farmers of the country.. The Journal believes it will be found profitable to every large town and city in Nebraska to have a night school, in coojnnction with the ordinary public schools, and that wherever instituted on correct principles, there will be no thought of doing without them. Of course, experience is the great solid teacher of communities, and something can always be learned from what has been done by others. At Omaha, for instance, they have had a night school in operation portions of three years, with a slight increase in attendance. The average ageof pupils the last five months was 17 years. One hundred and nine pupils were more than 21 years old. The oldest pupil enrolled is 68, the youngest 8 years old. The beginning classes are made up chiefly of older per sons who have never had any school advantages, and who have shown a very strong desire to learn, which is the real foundation of the great advancements they have made. The Bee, from which we condense, says that much good has been accomplished; children employed during the day are given a good start, and backward adults are enlightened. The funeral services as conducted Tuesday afternoon of last week at the Baptist church by Rev. Pierce of Genoa, the two caskets side by side containing the mortal remains of Mr. and Mrs. Josiah McFarland, who were instantly killed the previous Saturday, were very impressive throughout. Quotations from the Scripture were read, and a very in teresting sermon delivered from the text, Proverbs 7:19 For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey. Many touching appeals were made to the sons and daughters of the aged couple, who, united in life, had not been separ ated in death, but had gone to Paradise together. The Grand Army comrades of Mr. McFarland who were present, were commended for their loyalty during the Civil war. These caskets do not contain the soul, the true home is in Paradise. Mr. Pierce spoke very feelingly, having been intimately acquainted with Mr. and Mrs. McFarland. The services at the grave were conducted by Baker Post G. A. R. Bugler Miner of the S. of V. sounding "taps" and Rev. Pierce closing with the benediction. Side by side in the walled-up grave lie the mortal remains of two as gentle souls as we have ever known to sojourn here in their tenement of clay. A Bellwood ordinance provides that any person who neglects to repair a sidewalk, "defective to such an extent as to be dangerous for the passing over of men, women or children, and to remain so for a period of twenty-four hours, after being notified of the same by the chairman, marshal or street commis sioner, shall be deemed guilty of a mis demeanor, and upon conviction thereof shall be fined not less than five dollars nor more than one hundred dollars and costs of prosecution for each and every offence, and each day's neglect or failure to repair said defective sidewalk after being notified so to do, shall constitute a separate offence." It is with this, as with all other laws. It is not the sever ity of the enactment so much as the cer tainty of its enforcement that secures desired results. There is not a particle of doubt too, but if there was greater publicity of the laws, there would be much better results. It is a favorite principle o! the statesmen, expressed in various forms, that all wrongs are com mitted in physical, mental or moral darkness. In matters of public concern the only safety is in publicity. Preven tion is very much better than cure. Fifty dollars spent in publicity may effect the saving of five thousand.

Death of Guy C. Banram. The death of this pioneer occurred at the residence south of the Loup Monday morning, March 25, 2 o'clock. The funeral is to be at 10 o'clock today (Wed nesday), from the residence, the Masons having charge. He was born at Monkton, Vermont, April 5, 1825, coming of good Revolu tionary stock. At 17 years of age he came west with his parents; to Nauvoo, HI., in 1844 where they lived on a farm three years; to "Winter Quarters," Neb., for a while, then removed to Iowa, where he remained till 1860, when he came to Neebraska again taking a pre-emption of 160 acres south of the Loup which has really been his home ever since. Here his father died in 1861, and his mother in 1877. Mr. Barnum was married to Miss Mi- randa J. Fuller December 24, 1845, at Nauvoo, I1L She died March 17, 1895. Six children were born to them, four of whom are living: Guy G. Barnum, jr., Shoshone, Idaho; George E. Barnum; Mrs. W. B. Doddridge, Paola, Kansas; Mrs. G. W. Barnhart, Ft. Worth, Texas. Mrs. John Lisco died about three years ago, and another daughter Kara eigh teen years ago. Mr. Barnum was a member of the Territorial legislature in 1866; of the Senate in 1869, being the only democratic member of that body. He was county commissioner for this county six years, beginning in 1870. During the active years of his life, while the wife of his youth, the mother of his children, was with him, he prospered and flourished in business and in affairs generally, his land holdings reaching to eleven hun dred acres, and his ranch becoming a model one for farming and stock-raising. Mr. Barnum was always sympathetic, helping all in need who called upon him for help; outspoken and plain; very de cided in his views; an ardent advocate for what be regarded as for the public good. Let us hope that after the storms of this life, he lives free from turmoil and trouble, in the Summer Land. Carpet ! Carpets!
