There is war on hand between theOmaha Bee and the executive commit-tee of the Exposition. The Bee, in oneof its lengthy criticisms, says: "Noth-ing, however, should surprise anybodyemanating from people who imaginethat a red-ho- t midway Haunting in-

decency as its chief attraction, with anattachment of a bric-a-bri- c aggregationof exhibits scattered through half-fille- d

exhibition buildings, constitutes a first-cla- ss

exhibition."

Jaxcart of this year the SchuylerSavings Bank of this city was compelledby reason of a surplus of funds on handand no demand for it, to reduce therate of interest paid to depositors fromfive to four per cent. Since then thesedeposits have still increased, with solittle demand for loans, that anothernotice has been sent out that only threepercent will hereafter be paid on de-

posits. This condition of affairs tellsits own story. It shows that the peo-ple have plenty of money to pnt in thesavings bank and that few of them areborrowers. This is gold standard timestoo, and just the opposite condition ofaffeirs which Ibe fusionists said wouldcome if McKinley was elected. Whathave onr 16 to 1 friends to say to allthis? Schuyler Sun.

At to Supreme Judge.The Joukxaij referred last week to

talk in the state press concerning JohnH. Gondring as a candidate for judge ofthe supreme court this fall on the demo-cratic ticket We suppose that the fol-

lowing paragraph from the party organof this county states the matter as it isheld here by the brethren of the oppo-sition: The Telegram understands,however, that Mr. Gondring is not acandidate for supreme court judge, al-

though his friends throughout thestate would rejoice exceedingly to honorhim with the nomination were it not forthe fact that Platte county is alreadyrepresented on the supreme court benchby Judge J. J. Sullivan of Columbus.But Platte county is entitled to, and

will demand a place on the judicialticket in this district. Whether or notit will be on a fusion or straight democratic ticket remains for the democratic j

convention to decide.

To Welcome Co. K.

At the meeting held last week the fol-

lowing committee on finance was named:EL North, E. J. Niewohner, H. T. Spoerry,John Tannahill, C. A. Newman.

Mayor Fitzpatrick is to represent thiscity on the committee to be sent fromOmaha to San Francisco, to meet theregiment on their arrival there, and ac-

company them to Nebraska.Judge Post and Mayor Fitzpatrick are

the local members on a committee ofreception for the state, selected fromvarious cities.

There is no doubt, whatever, of anenthusiastic reception of the soldiers ofthe First, wherever they may please tomake their appearance in the state. Wethink, however, that if they have theleast suspicion that either Omaha orLincoln is endeavoring to use theirhomecoming as a business and com-

mercial event only, all in the interest ofsuch city, the venture may be a losingone. Let the welcome be unmixed withanything of the sort, and entirely freefrom objection. The men have beenleading a hard life. Discharged at SanFrancisco, they will not be under ordersbut will be acting upon their own feol-ing- s

and good judgment, which natur-ally will bring them to their loved onesby the nearest route.

Fusion for Spoils.

More people than the editors of news-

papers, and tho party politicians whoare trying to hold tho uneasy elementstogether, are noticing how the land lies.The Blair Pilot expresses one phase ofthe situation:

It's a good thing for the pops in Ne-braska that Edgar Howard runs onlythe Papillion Times instead of a statedaily. Howard is demanding of thepops it share of tho state patronage.He isn't particular what the democratsget but he wants that they should getsomething. The pops have it mappedout as follows:

Pop Holcomb, Supreme Judge.Pop Poynter, Next Governor.Pop Allen, Next U. S. Senator.To this proposition Howard says no

and 6ays it in no unmistakable lan-guage. In Nebraska it seems that thepops are certain to swallow up the dem-ocrats, but in national affairs the dem-ocrats recognize no pop party. It is afamily quarrel, extremely interesting toan outsider and is more than apt toforce all patronage out of reach of the"fusion for spoils" party in the nearfuture.

Sharks anil the Ilend 'What.Tho presence of any largo quantity

Of easily obtainable food is always anfil-cie- nt

to secure the undivided attentionof the shark tribe. When "cutting in"whales at sea, I have often been amazedat the incredible numbers of these crea-tures that gather in a short space oftime, attracted by some mysteriousmeans from heaven only knows whatremote distances. It has often occurredto us, when whaling in the neighbor-hood of New Zealand, to get a spermwhale alongside without a sign of ashark below or a bird above. Withinan hour from tho time of our securingthe vast mass of flesh to the ship thewhole area within at least an acre hasbeen alive with a soothing multitude ofsharks, while from every quarter camedrifting silently an incalculable host ofsea birds, converting the blue surfaceof the sea into the semblance of a plainof new fallen snow.

The harpooners and officers from theirlofty position on the cutting stage slewscores upon scores by simply droppingtheir keen edged blubber spades uponthe soft crowns of the struggling fish,tho only place where a shark is vulner-able to instant death. The weaponsinks into the creature's brain, he givesa convulsive writho or two, releases hishold and slowly sinks, followed in hisdescent by a knot of his immediatoneighbors, all anxious to provide himwith prompt sepulture within theirown yearning maws.

It would seem us though theAmerican people had had experienceenough to induce them to devise moresensible ways of celebrating the nation'snatal day. The Chicago Tribune's listof casualties this year from 250 cities andtowns, includes: dead, 33; injured, 1,-73-0;

fire losses, $233,070. Injured bycannon crackers, 731; by powder ex-

plosions, 257; by toy cannon, 250; bystray bullets, 60 all due to the cele-bration of July 4. And this is but asimilar record to that of many preced-ing years, a list of people wounded forlife; a fearfully long list of killed. Trya better way.

The address of John M. MacFarlandat the celebration of the Fourth heremet with the approval of most peoplewho heard it. He .declared himselfproud of his native state, Virginia, butno less so of his adopted state whichhad become so famous throughout theworld by the valor, endurance and manlybearing of her soldiers in the Philip-pines. The First Nebraska has donemore to attract attention to the statethan anything else could have done. Inhis speech he dwelt particularly uponthree elements of our civilization neces-sary to the welfare of our governmentand the perpetuity of our free institu-tions, viz: the home, the school and thochurch. A few words against the evilsof trusts closed the brief address whichwas listened to with close attention.

cz&mcA correspondent sends us a criticism

upon the manner of a minister in thepulpit, characterizing it as not beingearnest enough. "The Master said, goye out into the highway and hedges andcompel them to come in that my housemay be filled, for there are many vacantseats that you have to preach to." Ourcorrespondent expresses the hope thatthose seats will not rise np in the judgment against those that might havefilled them. Seats at the churches arenot the only opportunities that are notutilized by the general public, and thelack of earnestness on the part of thepreacher is not the only or the mainreason why the seats are not filled, al-

though more zeal with knowledge mightgreatly add to the number of churchattendants.

John Buss, who lives up the Loupabout 18 miles from the city, had apretty narrow escape from fire on thenight of the Fourth. The children hadbeen having their amusement with firecrcckers late in the evening and it issupposed that some garments near thescreen door of the kitchen had thuscaught fire. At least, after midnight,the folks were wakened by the blazewhich by that time had involved thescreen door, the other door and casings.A few minutes more unnoticed, andthere is little telling what might havebecome of the house and its occupants.

Stand np for Nebraska.Editor Journal: I am not going to

ask pardon from any of your readers indefending Nebraska against any state inthe American Union. The citizens ofNebraska respond to a call for sufferinghumanit as quickly as any people onearth. I do not know whether Mr. W.W. Burgess was one of the unfortunatewho applied for aid or not.

I suppose that tho reason why Cali-

fornia has never sent a committee out tosolicit aid is on account of the intelli-gence and industry of her people. Weuse rope in this state to stake out ourcattle instead of using it to shut off thewind of some unfortunate. God grantthe day has come that tho Nebraskansare proud of our people, proud of ourstate and proud of our noble boys inblue who stand second to none' in thefar away Philippines. I should 'just assoon own a Nebraska blizzard as a Cali-

fornia earthquake. W. W. B., come andtake dinner with me, on your return toold Nebraska. Geo. E. Bakxuu.

Mrs. Sophronia Bhodes.The subject of this sketch was born in

New York state, removed to Michigan,then to Lincoln, Nebraska, where, eightyears ago, her husband, ChristianRhodes, departed this life.

Since that tinio sho has made herhome with her only living child, Mrs.W. D. Askine.

Last fall she begau to be afflicted bysciatic rheumatism and we learn sufferedseverely since the first of the year, con-

fined to the house since the first of May,death resulting by paralysis, Wednesdaymorning, July 5. Short services wereconducted by Rev. Mickel the sameevening at the home in the eastern partof the city. The next morning, the re-

mains were taken to Lincoln, Mr. andMrs. Askine accompanying, and afterfuneral services conducted by ElderNelson of the Seventh-Da- y Adventistchurch, of which Mrs. Rhodes had beena member, the body was laid to rest inWyuka cemetery. She was 65 years oldin May, and her departure will be sin-

cerely mourned by all who were favoredwith her acquaintance.

The Methodists had a very enjoy-able time Friday night at the church re-

joicing over the fact that the mortgageupon the church property had been paid,and that the congregation were nearlyfree of debt, the only item now being abalance of $92 on the salary of Rev.Mickel. Once out of debt, the determin-ation is to "pay as you go," which, it hasbeen found by experience, is altogetherthe best way. Those who made brief re-

marks Friday evening were: Mrs. Wm.Spiece, Mrs. O.D. Butler, Revs. Tyndall,Mickel and Rogers and Messrs. Ives,Crauu, Spoerry, Liudstrum and Koon.A letter from Rev. John St. Clair ofMadison, who built the church, doing aconsiderable portion of the work withhis own hands, formed an interestingpart of the proceedings. All the work-men (except himself) got their pay everySaturday night while the church wasbeing built. Reference was made toseveral exciting incidents while ho waspastor in charge. The burning of themortgage was a welcome feature of theprogram. Plenty of delicious ice creamand cake was served to tho crowd present, and it was close to midnight beforesome of the folks got home.

Last week, just as we were closingforms for the press, Mr. Albert's son wasbrought in from a pond near the Loup,and there were some particulars of in-

terest that were not, at that hour ofwriting, available to the reporter. Theother boy with him was Ralph Stilesand they had gone down to the river tosee young Albert's 6et line. When hewent into the water, he sank like a shot,and was not conscious until 2 o'clockthe next morning, the sinking wasabout 3 in the afternoon. John Wiggins,who rescued the boy, was about an hourlate in starting on his trip south of theriver. Mr. Wiggins says it seemed apeculiar thing that the exact spot wherehe went down was located and that notime was lost getting him out of thewater. Dr. Baker tells us that if Mr.Wiggins and George Hengler, whohelped him, had not done what they didso as to relieve young Albert of the accumulated slime, there would have beenno use to bring him to a doctor, butthat done and breathing begun, therewas good prospect of recovery. A Jour-nal reader, speaking of this matter, isvery high in his praise of Mr. Wigginsand Mr. Hengler for their good senseand good judgment shown in the emer-gency.

C. W. Ziegler in the last 'NebraskaFarmer makes report of the result ofDr. J. H. Snoddy's treatment of the hogcholera, on the herd of Gerrard & Zeig-le- r,

near Monroe. He says: There were285 head. Dr. Snoddy arrived June 15.Before that about 50 head had died, andthere were as many as 150 head sick;counted out 18 head, very sick, and putin pens as they were beyond the stage ofthe disease that Dr. Snoddy claimed tocure, and he told me so at the time.They were pronounced by him ac hope-less. These were seen by your repre-sentative, who did not think they couldpull through. The final results are asfollows: After a very stubborn fightwith the disease, on account of the verywet weather we have had, we lost eighthead out of the pens of the 18 hopelesslot and six head out of the herd. Inpercentages, we saved 55 per cent of thehopeless lot 98 per cent of those consid-ered curable by the doctor, and 95 percent of the entire herd. The diseasewas a violent form of swine plague andcholera. There were nineteen old broodsows that had had the cholera two yearsago, and strange, but true, over one-ha- lt

of them had it again this time, and someof them were very sick. I am wellpleased with the treatment and in thefuture will not dread hog cholera as Ihave in the past I regard the remedy acomplete success when it is properlyused, and I shall keep it on hand con-tinuously in the future.

The Glorious Bay.There couldn't well have been selected

better weather than went to make upthe morning, noon and evening, in factall day long was fine. Tho number ofpeople in the city was sufficient for theenjoyment of the occasion in rationalmanner.

The parade attracted the attention ofeverybody for a brief space, and wasmeritorious in all its make-u- p, thedifferent companies of the fire depart-ment, and the J. I. Case thresher withthe traction engine occupying the mostspace, and taking the largest place inthe public eye. The bevy of youngMisses who represented the states of theUnion enlivened the parade with patri-otic and other popular songs. Thebands which made the welkin ring werethe Duncan, Columbus Cornet and theDrum Corps.

The city council was in evidence, aportion of them with Mayor Fitzpatrickin a carriage with J. M. MacFarland,orator of the day. Numerous businessestablishments were represented- - bymore or less elaborate methods of dis-play, and altogether there was a respect-able showing for the time takeu to getit up. At the Park, Miss Pauline Eliasrendered the Declaration of Indepen-dence in her usual very satisfactorymanner, and those who heard Mr. Mac-Farlan-

speech, prouounced it excell-

ent. J

The rgnmos were interesting to thecontestants, and the firoworks at nightwere enjoyed by a multitude of peopie.

One the State.The official proceedings of the county

board of supervisors show that Liscooffered a resolution directing the countyattorney to make demand upon J. W.Lynch, ex-coun-ty treasurer and hisbondsmen for the balance due the coun-ty or state, and in case of refusal, tocommence action to recover the amountdue, and inasmuch as the amount duegoes to the state it is therefore thesense of the board that the attorneygeneral should assist in the case,and the county attorney be direct-ed to secure his assistance.

Carrig offered an amendment that acommittee of three be appointed to con-fer with the bondsmen relative to thesettlement of the balance due, and re-

port to the next meeting of the board.Roll called for vote on amendment,
