work of organizing the company and
buying land must be begun soon.
Should the lactory be built it would
mean the employment of from fifty to
seventy-five men and the employment
of more in the fields of Platte cennty.

of W. T. Rickly today noon, at 12 :30,
removing from their midst the spirit
of the dearly beloved wife and moth

her sudden illness and death comes as
a shock to her acquaintances as she

nervous headaches. This morning
coon after arising she was found un
conscious by her daughters, where she
had fallen on the lloor. From that

A new wholesale grocery store has
been organized to start in Omaha, in
which one of our Columbus citizens
will be a member cf the firm. J E.
Erekine, who has been a resident of
this city fcr several years, will be a
member of the new company, together
with Jos. Selleck traveling for Allen
Bros, of Omaha, and Messrs Rappke,
Katz and Wcodman all of Omaha.
The new comrany have meney and
business influence with them and their
friends who are acquainted with the
situation assure them that they have
an encouraging future before them.
Mr. Selleck was at one time- a resi
dent of Columbus aad is a salesman
in this district, his family residing in
Albion. Mr. Erskine will not leave
his present firm, McCord. Erady Co.,
until the first of January when he
may decide to remove to Omaha, al
though the family may not lave until
later in the spring. Mr. Erskine i?
considered one of the best salesmen on
the road in Nebraska, and there is no
more popular man in the state than
he. His record among talesmen in the
United States classed among the best
for which he has repeatedly receivea
public recognition. Mr. Erskine's re
moval from Columbus will mean a
great loss to the Methodist church, as
the assistance both he and Mrs. Ers
kine have given in the choir and
numerous other ways have been of
untold value to th- church, crd their
places will be difficult to fill.
