We published short time ago the state
ment that Frenchman by the name of Victor
vifquain, Of Crete, Nebraska, was organizing
a party to make an excursion in the old world
next summer. County clerk Sloan addressed
him upon this subject, and received the fol-
lowing information:
II will take you from Omaha to London,
Paris, Geneva, Lyons, Marseilles, Rome. Al
giers, Gibraltar and back to New York and
Omaha for $3.50 in gold. l will pay for every

The Herald Is getting tired of that Frank
Davis discussion. We should think it would
be. 1t has as yet not proved that the jail was
not as filthy as We claim ed it was. And the
opinion of the people of Saline county is that
the Jail was as filthy as represented. So con-
WINGED was Long that he was guilty as
charged and that he was not capable for the
task of keeping the Jail in clean condition. he
threw up the sponge and let the contract out
to Mr.. Russell. Now with reference to the
Herald's boast that DR.. Jenney would not
risk his reputation As physician that Frank
Davis tnow dead was in good health when
placed in our Jail. Here is the Doctors state
mcnt:
have oftentimes stated to the editors of the
JOURNAL and many others that when Frank
Davis went into the county jail he was q
strong, hearty n an /; aud that he was brought
into the last stages Of consumption by beng
confined in hat miserable PRISON. Such was
and Is nv opinion. j. w. JEyyEY.
We suppose the next move Of the Herald.
now, Will be to black guard DR.. Jenuey Such
will be the command OF Long. who contrib
utes printing In pay therefor.
We notice by the Eastern press that Hon.
Schuyler Colfax, who Is to lecture In Salina on
the evening Of the 9Th, is drawing immense
audiences everywhere, rain or shine. Here
are some OF the press notices
