"Wc like to 6ee an editor feelhappy, and here is one, evidentlythe Madison Chronicle man, and theoccasion of Iuh hilarity, let him tellit himself: "If you want to see theboas calf of the county call at yeeditor's stable and j'ou can be grat-ified.

The best butter in the New Yorkmarket goes from Iowa, so wo see itstated in sonie of our exchanges.We are assured that first-cla- ss Ne-

braska butler ranks just as high asIowa. Their's is an older settledstate, and doubtless the facilities forhandling butter, the stables, the milkhouses, &., are, on the average, bet-

ter than those of Nebraska, but ourfolks are learning fast, and nothingwill bring them to the front quickerthan to know that the gilt-edge- d

butter made by the Nebraskana whomean business, brings twenty centsa pound the year round. This priceought certainly to beau inducementfor the men of Nebraska to go towork and provide the best of milkhouses and other facilities for mak-ing good butter.

The Omaha Republican of Sat-

urday contained a detailed accountof a horrible accident which hap-pene- d

at North Bend last Fridayevening, to Mrs. Williams. She ranup behind a train standing at thedepot, and called to a gentleman inthe caboose, with whom she hadbusiness, and before he had time toget to her the train moving back-

wards had struck her, knocking herdown with her neck over a rail, andtwo cars pasped before the traincould be stopped. Her head wascompletely Revered from her body,and, strange to say, she received nota bruise, or a scratch any where else,upon her head or body. She wasan excitable woman, and a man bythe name of Robinson had justplayed upon her the scoundrellytrick of selling her a piece of landthat lie had already sold to another,receiving pay from both, which factprobably so occupied her mind thatshe was unconscious of where shewas standing, intent only upon conferring with a man who purposedaidiug her in securing the arrest otthe scoundrel who had defraudedher.

-InvaMlon of the ICiglilx of an

American Citizen lij- - OIH- -ccm ia 4acriiiaiiy.

Several weeks since Mr. ArnoldOchlrich of the firm of OohlrichBros, of this place went to visit thehome of his mother at Elmshorn,Holsteiu, Germany. He had beenthere about, thirty days, when onemorning, before he was yet out olbed, two policemen made their ap- -

pearauce, put him under arrest andtook him betore a police judge, whosaid that ho must go to the fort fora year, work at hard labor for ayear, or pay a fine of 200 marks,about $50. Mr. Oehlrich paid the200 marks, and asked the Judge ifthat was all he wanted from him.On his saying that it was, Mr. O.said that now ho would sec theAmerican Consul at Hamburg aboutthe matter.

Alter he had started for home theJudge sent his marshal to requesthim to call at his otlice before goingto Hamburg. On returning, theJudge iuquired concerning his pass-port, and was informed that Mr. O.was an American citizen. He wentto Hamburg and returned in a fewweeks. Tho day following his re-

turn, the Judge tried to get hispapers from him, and was determin-ed lo send him into the array, butMr. Oehlrich told them to keep theirhands oti him, and he left ou the 1stof July.

We sHppoee that rather than wastehis time prosecuting for false im-

prisonment, Mr. Oehlrich will makehis way to America at the earliestopportunity, but it roust be veryannoying for an American citizen(as much so as any of us, althoughnot boru here), to be treated thus,and Secretary Blaine should make itso Jively for these swindlers thatthey will never dare undertake theirgame again.

-City EteniM.

One of the members of the CityCouncil tells us that a Journal cor-

respondent, in treating of city mat-

ters, should remember that the citydebt is less than $4,000; that war-rants are worth from 80 to 90 cts. onthe dollar; that the publication oftho ordinances in pamphlet form, cannot coat the city $200 all tho print-ing for the year, including everyitem for publication of ordinancesin newspaper, and in pamphlet form,for job-wor- k, everything in thoprinting line, cannot cost more than$150. He suggests, too, that if therewere a good attendance of citizensat the meetings of the Council, anda complete publication of their pro-ceedings by the newspapers, therewould be less occasion for faultfinding.

by the addition of a little girl to hisfamily last Friday night.

P. F. Doody, who has been inColorado for tho last three mouths,writes that he will be among us bythe 1st of August.

Last night our population wasagain increased by the arrival of ayoung miller, the son of Robt. Price,our Platte Center miller.

Dr. Wm. Edwards purchased afarm of two hundred acres from anItalian by the name of Barboro, lastweek, four miles north of town.

Sometime during next mouth, themail for Oakdale aud other officesou the same route will bo suppliedfrom this place instead of from Columbus, as heretofore. X.

A ooI Thine:.J. E. Elliott has iuveuted a com-

bination drive well that promises tomake a big revolution in the bus-

iness of supplying water. Anynumber of wells may he included inthe combination, the tops beingdrawn toward each other iu an easycurve, and enclosed in a large in-

verted funnel, closed below, thestreams joining and forming onecurreut as the water is pulled outby suction.

A trial was made Friday last withthe fire engine, on a well of thiskind, having five supply tubes, andit gave excellent satisfaction.

Heretofore Columbus has startedout on a system of large wells linedwith plank, but this looks as thoughit would be a decidod improvement,and will probably be adopted.

There is every indication that oursection of country has an unlimitedsupply of water, when you go downinto the coarse gravel.and the theoryof this invention is that with thesesupply pipes you form the equiv-alent of a well as large as (perhapslarger than) the area enclosed bythem.

There are several advantages tothe new well, among which are itscost, compared with the other, oue-hslf- or

less; cost of repair, merelynominal ; tho water would be al-

ways pure; comparatively notrouuie to attach uose.

Ilride fleeting.A called meeting of the citizens of

Columbus was held on Saturday lastat the Town Hall.

Col. John Rickly was called to thechair and David Anderson electedsecretary.

About all the business interests ofthe city were represented, and theobject of the meeting as stated bytho chairman was to take some actiouand devise the necessary means, torepair tho Platte river bridge, elevenspans of which were washed awaylast March, by the Ice and water,and also to inquire into the reasonof the great delay in constructingthe Loup Fork bridge, and urge itsimmodiate completion.

Mr. Robinson, the contractor, be-

ing present gave his reason for thetedious manner work on the Louphas been delayed, and promised tohave his contract fulfilled in aboutseven or eight days, when we mayagain expect to have our formertrade from south and west of theLoup renewed.

Remarks were made by Mr. Beck-er, Mr. Kramer, John Wiggins andothers, concerning the proper courseto pursue in rebuilding the Platteriver bridge, and on motion of J. E.North, it was resolved that a com-mittee of three be appointed, consist-ing of John Rickly, John Wigginsand G. A.Schroeder for the purposeof investigating the condition offunds available for the speedy re-

pairing of Loup aud Platte bridges,and to consult with the countycommissioners in regard to the earlycompletion of said bridges. Also toexamine the contract made for driv-ing piles, and putting on the capsfor the Loup bridge and to see ifwork has been done according tocontract.

On motion of Mr. Becker, this--meeting adjourned to meet agaiu atcall of committee as above designat-ed. D. Andebson, Sec'y.

KefuadiRg; Hondo or Not.EniTon iIoukkal: As the city

council havo uot, as I am aware,complied with Subdivision 31, Sec-

tion 09, Chap. 23, Laws of Nebraska,18S1, page, 1SG, which providesthat

"The council or trustees shall"cause to be published, semi-annual-"- ly,

a statement of the receipts of"the corporation aud sources there-"o- f,

and an itemized account of ex-

penditures, with a statement of the"financial condition of the city or"village," the exact amount of ourcity debt cannot be ascertained, butis supposed to be little less than fivethousand dollars. The ten thou-

sand dollars in bonds proposed tobe voted by a few parties includedthe debts of the city incurred thepresent year, as well as its out-

standing debt incurred during pre-vious years. Now if we assume that$5000.00 in cash is necessary to liqui-date such outstanding debt, the fol-

lowing estimate will show that thecity in ten years, when the bondsfall due, would lose $3,351 37 pro-vided our municipal affairs could bomanaged on the same basis as theywere during Mr. Becker's adminis-tration, aud tho city pay at the rateof $1500.00 per year on its old debt.STATEMENT WITH KKFKltKNCK TO IiONDS.

Let us grant, for the sake of ar-gument in favor of the funding pro-cess, that the bonds can be negotia-ted at par, that it will cost nothingto nogotiate them or call an electioutherefor, how stands the matterthen? $5,000.00 drawing 7 percent,interest in ten years, would equal$8,500.00 principal and interest, thusleaving a difference against bondsbetween that sum and $5093.00,which equals $2807.00.

Again, it will bo seen at the endof three years on the above hypoth-esis we would have no city debt ifwe didn't vote bouds. On the otherhand, our bonded debt then, including accrued interest, woulcy"amount to $1)050 00. But it may bfe

urgod that the interest will have tobe paid annually. Grant it. Theprincipal, $5000.00, cannot be paidfor ten years. It has been assertedby good authority that there is morethan eiiouirb taves lnvmd for fliioand previous years, which might beapplied towards paying oil' tho olddebt. It is very hard for the citvto he sued ou its outstanding orders,but tho judgments which have boonrendered thereon are trifling inamount, and they have all been paidup, I. believe. Who are likely tosue the city again ? When such isthe case, some way may be contriv-ed by which the matter can be met.It is not best to cross a bridge tillwe reach it. Furthermore, citywarrants have not the qualities ofnegotiable paper, their considerationcan always be enquired into. Someof our outstanding paper may havebeen illegally issued, but if we votebonds to pay it oil; whon paid;urmoney is virtually lost.

It was stated to the writer by a fmember of the city council, that onf XMonday, July 25th, a resolution wasi

introduced before our city fathersfor tho purpose of ascertaining thonature of the city's title to FrankfortSquare, whether it could be dividedinto lots and sold by the city, butwas voted down, there beiii"' a tievote, the Mayor voting in the nega- - rtive. It would soem that the sub-- (

jeet is worthy of consideration, forif that proporty could be sold, its atproceeds applied towards paying ofl'our obligations, and the amount oftaxable property increased, the in-

terests of our little commonwealth atwould be much bettor subserved,for aB it stands fenced iu, it is of nouse only for growing weeds, and "payiug the overseer of streets out ofcity funds for harvesting them. &

According to Lexicographers agambler is one who plays for moneyor other stakes, and this vice is notconfined to cards, billiards, pool and atsuch games, but takes iu horse rac-

ing and kindred matters which how-

ever innocent in themselves whenkept in proper bounds, yet seem tolack the'excitemeut so much soughtafter, unless there is a pecuuiary tho

value attached to their successor failure. Of the evil resulting tofrom an indulgence in the first of M.these games, this community has buttoo recently had a sorrowful expe-rience, but let those who wouldpunish the violators of law in theserespects, see to it that their handsare clean before they commence inthrowiug stones, for under the morallaw siu is the same whether the anddegree be large or small. Wo mayendeavor to hide the deformity ofthe thing nuder the name of driving-parks- ,
