Mm. John Deegan died at the family

She waa born in Ireland, and at about

one brother, living in St Joseph, Ma,

good health during the twenty-eeven

Columbue waa represented at the
Democratic Editors' Association meeting
nt Lincoln last week by Edgar Howard
of the Telegram, who read a paper on
democratic heroes, "paying n high trib
ute to the men who hare eteadfastly
upheld true democracy aad laid aside all
thought of eelf-advancement in the work
of eupporting democracy in its true
sense;" sko by J. H. Johannes of the
Biene, who read a paper on "Our German
Belatione," which was "received with
every evidence of appro vaU aad it aho wed
the reader to be an editor whose advo
cacy of democracy waa exerting n splen
did influence." So eaya the Lincoln cor
respondent of the Omaha World-Herald.
The association decided to maintain ite
distinctively democratic coloring, which
excludes the populist editors. We notice
that Will M. Maupin of the Commoner
waa present, aad took an active part in
the proeesdinga, alao that at the close of
the meeting the editors went to the resi
dence of W.J. Bryan, and were enter
tained at dinner.
Aocordiag to the Fremont Tribune,
there ia another way of looking at a
project: The people of Platte county
behind the Nebraska Central canal seem
to be in earnest about running their
artificial water channel down into Dodge
oounty. They express a purpose to util
ize the old waterway of the Rawhide
creek, tune aaving the coat of excavation.
They may hare a clear idea of what they
want to do, bnt it aurely ie no clearer
than the ideas which resulted, in great
expense in money and wear and tear of
friendahipa and much goose grease
applied to the wheels of justice, in divert
ing the watere of the -Bawhide into the
Platte by meana of cut-off ditches. If
the Platte county people will guarantee
to keep their water out of the Bawhide
in wet aeaeona aad furnish the stream
with moisture only in dry aeaeona, to be
need for irrigation purposes, they will
meet with n much more cordial reception
down thie way than ia otherwiee likely.
A stream that can be need for drainage
in wet aaasons and for irrigation in
periods of drouth would not be eo bad.
Peruana the eitisena of Dodge county
who have had about aa much of ditch
mattera aa they want, would be willing
to reopen the question with this under
standing." It seems that the Nebraska Tele
phone company ia kaviag to meet the
question of rates in more places than
one where it is doing busiaess, mainly
beoaueeof the fact that fanning commu
nities are awakening to the truth that
no claaasa of eitisena can be more great
ly benefited than themeelvea by a tele
phone system, provided that it does not
cost them too much. The question is
now being agitated for the country trib
utary to Colnmbae, aad the urgency of
the matter is such that we believe the
faraierawill readily find n eolation,
either with the oompaay now doing bue
ineea in the city or another, to be foraied.
