The Columbus journal., 1888-05-02

The JOURNAL declares that the white
house must 90. We have heard it re
marked that IL the JOURNAL was SUP
pressed and the W. h. allowed to remain
it would be better for the Demo
crat of the 9th.
And this is the sort of journalism that
disgraces itself and dishOnOrs this com
munity by groveling filings at young
ladies and by senseless attacks on pub
lie officials who do their sworn duty by
their constituents. So far as the jour
NAL is concerned the wish was probably
father to the thought. Come To remem
Der, the JOURNAL has been somewhat in
the way Of not only the houses Of prosti-
tuition, but also the sO-called Democrat
as edited by the present homogeneous
combination.
The Columbus journal., 1888-05-02
A singular circumstance showing I

"A singular circumstance showing the
power of the local press comes to us
from Lusk, Wyo., where our old friend
j. X. Calkins, formerly of this city con-
ducts the Herald. We clip it to show
our people what a paper sent east by
them may accomplish more than they
think. In the case cited Platte county
loses some good citizens, but the Incl
dent illustrates the general principle,
just as we'll. We may say that had it
not been for the words marked COPY
on the wrapper of the Herald, We would
probably not have see this paragraph:
The facts which lead to the visit of
Messrs. D. and P. Streeter to this coun
try to seek homes for themselves and
eight or ten other families, as mentioned
in another column, are worthy of being
put in type. Some weeks ago D. Street
or went to the JOURNAL Office at COlum-
bus, Neb.. to procure some old papers for
his wife to put on shelves. The Herald
exchanges with the JOURNAL, and among
other papers Mr.. Streeter got q copy Of
this great truth promulgator. The pa
pers were taken to his home and duly
cut up and placed on tho cupboard
shelves. A few days afterward one Of the
children picked up q small piece of paper
in the door yard, the father saw it and
noticed thereon the words Free Homes
for the Millions.' He also found the
name of the paper. That was all. He
wrote for a sample copy and on reading
it, he and his brother decided to come
and look at this country. The result
will be the immigration OF ten good
families, who will settle an the beautiful
lands near Lusk. Send papers to your
eastern friends"
