seventh Day Adven lists.

As this sect will hold their annual
State camp meeting at Columbus
next week, the following brief sketch
of their faith and history, written by
one of their number may prove in
teresting to the readers of the
JOURNAL.
AS their name indicates, they be-
lieve in the second coming of Christ
and that we may know when it is
near, (Matt. 24:33 and 1st Thes.,
$40 but do not pretend to set the
time, as some others have done.
They observe the 7th day of the
week as the Sabbath, and this prsc-
tice marks them as peculiar people
and separates them not only from
the world, but from the 1st day
churches. They teach that Christ is
Divine Being and existed with the
Father before the creation of the
world and that his is "the only name
given under Heaven or among men
whereby any can be saved" They
hold that the dead are unconscious,
and that all the wicked will finally
be destroyed. In support of these
positions they adduce such texts as
Eccl. g.: 5, 6. NAL, 4: l, and a num-
Der of others in both the old and the
new testaments.
Their history dates from about

WIN. Rowles, son of Thos. c.,
an old time Ohio friend of the
JOURNAL proprietors, was in the
city last week on business connected
with the Norris estate. We learn
from William that his father has
purchased q farm near Topeka, KS,
and that he likes the western coun-
try; also that Barclay, an elder
brother, is a successful farmer near
Topeka, doing all his own work,
and receiving his reward therefor in
physical health and strength, also
some wealth, and considerable hap
piness.

An accident occurred on the U.
p. Tuesday morning west of us, the
full particulars of which we have
not been able to gather. A cattle
train was partially ditched, the en-
gine lying upside down and six or
eight cars thrown from the track,
killing the cattle therein besides one
of the brakemen on the train. 1t is
a surmise among the rumOrs that
discharged workmen had taken a
hand car and placed it on the track
for the purpose of wrecking train.
Punishment could scarcely be too
severe for a deed 80 cOwardly and
cruel.

IN MEA DRY OF MRS. SUSAN T. PRICE.
We shall miss thee, dearest mother,
For We've laid thee III the dust;
When We see our loved ones dying
Oh! how hard to think it just.
AS we watched thee calmly resting
When the monster, Death, came by,
Then. 1T Iseemed Our. hearts weredbreak-
ing,
Twas so hard to let thee die.
Thou art gone from care and sorrow
To the realms of,endless day:
As in silence we are mourning
Still our dear one seems TO say
"Husband, children, friends and others,
Do not grieye nor shed tear,
For with Jesus, blessed Saviour,
am far more happy here.
Cease thy weeping and thy sorrow,
DO not think of me as dead,
For I'm gone to:Him in heaven
Care and pain forever fled.
Tho the grave seems dark and dreary
'Tis but there my body rests,
For my spirit lives with Jesus,
With the ransOmed ones and blest."
Oh! how happy when we're thinking
OF the friends whO'ye gone before,
As We down life's stream are floating,
They will meet us on the shore.
Oh! how joyous then the greeting
In that world Of bliss and love;
Cease thy sorrow and thy grieying
For we all shall meet above.
Mother, dear and precious mother,
Thou art gone from all beneath,
But we know the time is coming
When W., too, shall cease to breathe.
Then, Oh, then, the happy greeting
Waits us on the other shore,
Where Wen walk and talk with Jesus
Ever, and forever more. 20-w-I

-E. NJ. Squire of Madison coun-
ty is talked of as a candidate for the
Office of County School Sup't.
Where there can be no reason for
misconstruing our motive, we beg
leave of the good people OF Madison
county who may read these lines, to
say a word in favor of an old friend.
Mr.. Squire has been for the greater
part of his life actively engaged in
educational work, and makes it a
point to keep fully up with the times
in the best methods of receiving and
impsrting instruction, not adhering
to the old because it is old, neither
accepting the new. simply because
it is new. Mr.. Squire was Sup't in
Madison county for two years, and,
so far as we know, gave universal
satisfaction not only as to the
quantity and the quality of his
work but also as to the cost of the
same to the public whom he served.

Platte County Fair.

Bear in mind that the Platte
County Fair will be held Oct. 4th-
7th, during the time when the wea-
ther, As a rule, is so delightfully."-
pleasant in Nebraska.
Make arrang, ments to bring your
family, at least a portion of the time.
The good wife, your helpmeet, needs
to see the hosts of articles exhibited
at fair,-the fruits, the fiowe ers, the
vegetables, the needle work, and the
ten thousands things OF use and
beauty which attract the attention
of the ladies.
The children need q time of re-
creation and sightseeing and the
"old man." too, needs to have his
ideas shaken up little, his social
qualities given an opportunity for
exercise, and his opinions exchanged
with his fellow farmers on matters
of great value to him. Even in a
pecunialy way it pays the farmer to
attend the fair. 1t tends to heigh-
ten his ambition to strengthen his
pride in and his love for his calling
to increase his knowledge of the
soil, the grains, the vegetables, the
profitable farm products of all kinds
including the domesticated animals
and fowls that bring gold to the
farmers purse, which in its turn
builds the house and furnishes it,
sends the children to school, buys
books and musical instruments and
in all ways Gudiciously managedD
assists in running the machinery of
our life on this lively old planet of
ours, and makes existence more than
duty, makes it an intellectual ex-
ercise and a delight.

1916, since which time they have
slowly but steadily increased in
numbers and influence. About 30
years ago, Elder James White COM
menced the publication of the Id
rent Reriev and Sabbath Herald,
paying for the first two or three
editions with money which be earn
ed by chopping cord wood at fifty
cents per day in a short time pub
lication association was formed with
Elder White as President, and the
work has grown till now twelve
power presses are employed in this
country, and two in Europe. They
now publish three papers in English
aud four in other languages, besides
millions Of pages of tracts and books.
Through their tract societies and
missionary workers these publics-
tions are sent to every part of the
world. They have organized con-
ferences in nearly all the states and
several of the territories. The Ne
brasks conference was organized
three years ago, and comprizes twen-
ty-six organized churches and sever
al new and unorgauized companies.
Their camp meetings are said to
be quiet and orderly, and the preach
ing for the most part plain and prac-
tical. Their meetings at this place
will commence Sept. 2lst and con-
tinue to the 9th.

We learn that w. A. Davis,
formerly of this county, now Of
Nance, is a candidate for nomination
for Sheriff of that county before the
Republican convention. At the
election two years ago he received
220 out of the 800 votes cast, but in
some shape, in the county-seat con-
test was, we believe, counted out.
Without undertaking to say what
was right or wrong in that matter
(for we are not fully advised in the
premises) we beg leave to say that
our old friend Davis is a straight,
staunch Republican, an intelligent,
wide-awake man, and one who,
while be would do his whole duty,
in any case, as a sheriff, would yet
have heart to feel for those unfOr-
tunstes whose property might haye
to be sold under his hammer, and
he would do the best possible for
their interests.

F. J. Brown, Esq of the firm of
Brown & Hippach OF Fullerton, was
in the city yesterday on business.
He finds it very convenient to come
down in the morning, do almost a
days work in trading and return
home the same evening. Mr.. Brown
tells US that their first term of Dis
trict Court lasted about three hours.
Fullerton is proud, as she has good
reason to be of the new university
there under the management of Rev.
Fleharty. 1t is always credit to a
community that she favors intellec-
tual benefits and educati onal insti-
tutions, and we are glad to know
that the town of Fullerton appre-
ciates the value of the one recently
located there.

day last week, while the pump boys
were going over to the Island to put
up windmill. They were using a

been sent forward with the wind
mill. Some part of the wagon gave
way, soaring the horses, who took
q short run forward, turned round
and came back to the men who
caught them. No damage done,

out of the item is a warning to all

-"It is a waste of time and words

Judge Maxwell in the supreme court.
He will succeed himself and he
ought to. He has labored faithfully
and brought forth good works. He
has steadily risen to position where
he commands the respect and conf
dence alike of litigants and attorneys.
His reelection is due to him and to
the people of this state whom he has
served for the last nine years. Vas,

ccrned in the make up of the su-
