To-day's Quest ion.

Where your fall clothes are
coming from! That's the 4 ques-
ton. A hundred places invite
you, each in its own way. They
nearly all assume that you can
choose from variety Of gar
ments. what will satisfy you
both as to fitness and wear.
They assume that you will so
choose, pay your meney, and
wear out t he clothes.
One house offers you the great
est variety to choose from the
mostly highly developed system
ofmakiug, inspecting, aud mark
ing from which you may reason-
ably expect the best work and
the highest security that Il he ma
terials are what they are sold
for and the most liberal terms
in selling, viz, that you ha We the
right to return everything unin-
jured, if on examination at home
you repent of your choice.
For such advantages you ex-
pect to find perhaps prices high
er. You are not perhaps, good
enough judge to be certain but
the prices are said to be low, if
not the lowest of all. s uppose,
they are the higher you will
return the clothes, if you find
they have cost too much.
Buy then to-day a 500 bus
mess suit, and a $40 vsrcoat
and look at like cloths else
where. 1t is not SO diff Hcult as
you think to judge of cloth hing, if
you 60 the right way alb out it.

Gen. Hancock and the TarIfr.
A LETTER FROM THE DEMOCRATIC
CANDIDATE DEFINING HIS VIEWS.
GOVERNORS ISLAND, N. Y, I
Oct. IL, 1880. {

GOVERNORS ISLAND, N. Y,
Oct. IL, 1880.
MY DEAR GOVERNOR have re-
ceived your favor Of the llth inst.
In my letter OF acceptance 1 ex-
pressed my full sympathy with our
American industries. 1 thought l
spoke plainly enough to satisfy our
New Jersey friends regarding my
tariff views.
l am too sound an American to
advocate any departure from the
general features OF policy that has
been largely instrumental in build
ing up our industries and keeping
Americans from the competition of
the underpaid labor of Europe.
If we intend to remain honest and
pay the public debt, as good people
of all parties do, and if we mean to
administer the functions of govern
ment, then we must raise revenue in
some way or other. With a reuni
ted and harmonious country we shall
certainly in time pay off the public
debt; but the necessity of raising
money for. The administration Of the
Government will continue as long
as human nature lasts. All parties
agree that the best way for us tt
raise revenue is largely by the tai
iff. So far as we are concerned
therefore, all talk about "fret
trade" is folly.
But the tariff question will probs
bly, be treated with justice to all oul
interests aud people by some sucl
bill as Eaton's. / believe that {
commission of intelligent experts
representing both the Government
and American industries, will suf
gest tariff measures that will relieve
us of any crudities and inconsistel
cies existing in our present laws amt
confirm to us a system which will b.
iudicious, just, harmonious, and inc
dentally protective as we'll as stabl
in its effects. am very truly yours

we're to be seen for the the first time
since and few days before the Indiana

whether they visited Indiana or not, but

that they were certainly absent, from the

The Nebraska State Democratic
Central Committee held a meeting
at Omaha on the 9th. The Commit
tee was pretty fully represented.
The time for holding the State Con-
vention, after a tolerably sharp dis
cussion, was fixed on Wednesday
March 3lst 1880. The place Of hold
ing the convention was the next
thing in order for the Committee to
consider, and on motion of Hon. j.
f. North of this city, and through
his persistant recommendation OF
first-class accommodations OF hotels
and hall that would accommodate
$50 people, the vote was ordered and
resulted in favor of Columbus as the
place. Every statement made before
the committee by Mr.. North, the
delegates to the State Convention
will find strictly true, and for the
same reasons the JOURNAL has here
rofore urged upon the Republican
State Central Committee to hold the
Republican State Convention at this
city. Our hotels will furaish as
good accommodations as any in the
State, and the hall, the place Of
meeting, will! furnish every conven-
Ience for the delegates.

Those "Weighty lambs"

Mr.. EDITOR Your correspond
ent "Dot" referring to our heavy
lambs as "lambs of this spring." and
as Mr.. III. j. Hudson in the same
issue of your valuable paper calls
me "to the front" in regard to them,
| will rise and explain. Believing
with my friend j. N. Meyer, who
has handled sheep from his child
hood up, that it is best to have lambs
come in winter, when the farmer can
give time and attention to their case,
we had calculated to have our lambs
born in February, but we were
thwarted in our design by some of
them coming in January, and even,
if | recOllect Alright, in the latter
part of December. By little extra
care, such rs penning the lambs with
the ewes in warm place for a few
days. we suffered no more loss than
is usual, even at more favorable
times. We have no distinct breed
of sheep; they are only mixture of
different common breeds, some hav-
ing a little Cotswold and some a
little Merino blood in them, sup
pose, but we are trying to grade
them up. The heavy lambs we have
were nothing extra at birth, and |
don't believe that there were any
fourteen Founders among them, but
L cannot tell for sure as we did not
weigh them then. Seeing them
grow so fast. however, we weighed
two on Jan. 18th. one weighed then
"a lbs. and one 25 lbs. On Feb. 7th,
we weighed them again, and the
first one had gained IL lbs, weigh
ing 80 lbs., and the other one turned
the scales at 80 lbs. having gained
s lbs. When | wrote the statement
quoted by Mr.. Hudson, they weigh
ed from 80 to 40 lbs. This morning,
March 18th, we weighed three of
them, one weighing 49,, one 80,
and one 5l lbs. Our sheep have
been fed barley, and lately corn,
with all the hay they would eat at
the stack, the little fellows beginning
soon to partake of the hay and grain
with the rest. Respectfully,
A. HEINRICH.

Last Tuesday week between one
aud two o'clock in the afternoon,
flames were seen by the neighbors
issuing from the premises of Patrick
Foley on Shell creek, One-half mile
northwest of Henry Carrig's. Henry
and an employee were on the ground
in a very short time, rendering
prompt and effective aid, and, with
the assistance of others, saving con-
siderable property that would 9TH
wise have been destroyed. A boy
six years old, with match had set
fire 10 some straw in a dry-goOds
box and the flames quickly commu-
nicated to the sheds, stable, granar-
les, hog pen, hay-stacks, &c. The
boys little sister, only one year his
senior, pulled him away from the
flames, went to the stable (the straw
roof and sides of which were already
on fire. liberated two horses, and
then ran TO Il g hog pen and with an
AK knocked soards enough of the
side to save the porkers from roast
ing. Just at this time Mr.. Carrig
came up. He is very enthusiastic in
his praises Of the young girl. The
neighbors worked heroically, and
succeeded in saving the dwelling
house and its contents, and all but
$50 bushels out of crib of corn
containing 1000 bushels; this was
done by cutting through the crib
after it was on fire. The loss was
cattle shed, stable, about 20 tons of
hay, a mower, harness, &C., amount
ing probably to $3.50. At one time
the dwelling house was in great
danger, and the we'll would not
supply water as fast as needed, but
a team was sent in great hurry to
Henry Carrig's for supply with
which the house was saved. 1t is
only justice to say that Mr.. and Mrs.
Foley were absent at Platte Centre
during the fire, and had left the
youngsters in charge of an elderly
Polish woman.

The u. p. railroad is as free from
accidents as any we know Of but
occasionally one will happen OH their
long line. Sunday morning last,
four miles west of Jackson, the
eastern-bound emigrant train, ex-
cept the engine and one car, was
thrown from the track by broken
rail. We could not learn of any
injury to passengers. Seven cars
were ditched. Considering the fact
that iron breaks very readily in cold
weather, it is a wonder that more
accidents do not happen in this way.
If the road-bed is not perfectly true,
and one tie sinks, rail is sure to be
broken, because of frost in the iron.

This is the way it is often done.
A man i'm debt to his grocer for a
years supply of the necessaries of
life, will go to grocer who gives
no credit, and invest his five, ten or
fifteen dollars cash in groceries, and
Immediately thereafter step into his
old purchasing place, and get twice
the sum on stick" We heard of
one instance Monday, but we know
that it is only sample of many that
occur,-and it is thoroughly mean,
too. There is nothing that will de-
stroy a mans credit so soon as to
have a thing of this kind known
of him, and there is no business es-
tablishment in the world that can
bear the strain of constant credit
and inconstant collections.
