In closing nearly a column notice of
the Wild West and Negro allegorical
shows, the Kearney Hub thus pays its
respects to our fellow-townsman: "Mr.
Cody bad recently made arrangements
to visit Kearney and renew his acquaint
ance with old friends here, bi t unfortu
nately was taken sick upon the appointed
date, and lost the opportunity, for he is !
one of the busiest men in the country
and his 'day off' does not come very
often. We are all interested in his pro
jects, however, for he is as public spirited
as he is large hearted, and his money and
infiueuce will both be expended for the
development of the central portion of tho
state."
Apropos of the seed grain question
the following Chicago dispatch appearing
in the daily papers will prove interest
ing to the people of western Nebraska:
The Board of Trade committee in charge
of soliciting funds to buy grain for the
drouth sufferers in tho west has ap
pointed a sub-committee, consisting of
Messrs. Seaverns, Congdon and Ray
mond, to work among the merchants
of the city at large. Urgent requests
for seed have been coming in much
faster than funds, and the Board of
Trade people say something must be
done. A dozen counties in Nebraska
and as many in Kansas must be helped
out. It is not a request for charity, as
the funds are loaned on mortgages on
the next crop, which promises to be a
good one, considering the present nature
of the soil. President Cable of the Rock
Island has assured- the committee his
road will contribute thirty thousand dol
lars and transport all seed free. Other
roads are expected to do the same."
RAILWAY RESUME.
Wm. Smallwooi now has his air-brake
room fitted up in a very convenient and
comfortable form.
The 628 has gore into the "back" shop
for some light repairs and a new coat of
paint, and Fred Frederickson is running
the 639 instead.
The G36 and the 1456 passed through
this city yesterday and to-day Jon their
way to the Wyoming division. They
had each received an Omaha overhaul
ing. Engine 936 arrived in this city 'last
night on an extra en route for the Wyom
ing division from the Omaha shops
where she had been receiving an over
hauling. 1
Th machinists are highly pleased
with putting in service again of the old
ten-wheel locomotives, as they are more
complex, and it will require more men
to keep them in repair.
Engineer Wood White and wife re
turned Wednesday night from their trip
to the Badger 6tate, and report every
thing flourishing in the locomotive cab
seat industry at Appleton.
The 843 has gone into the shops for an
overhauling, nnd it is said when she is
finished will be fent to the O. S L. H.
J. Clark s casting about for another
engine to take her place, with a prospect
of securing either the 804 or 821, with
the chances in favor of the latter, as sho
will be out of the shops next week, where
she has been undergoing repairs since
the Chappell wreck.
Engines 957 and 1019 will arrive in this
city to-day on their way to the Wyoming
division. It is said this class of engines
will displace tho standard locomotives in
use west of Sidney, ou account of the
segregation of the O. S. L. As the late
congress failed to take any action in re
gard to the indebtedness of the Pacific
railroads, the probabilities are that when
Unrle Sam gets a settlement he- will -find
that he has but two streaks of rust and a
right of way as his share.

"BUFFALO BILL'S" BRIDAL.
On Wednesday evening in responso to
invitation, somb'fif ty of the older friends
of Col. W. F. , nsseraJed at tho
family residence on West Fourth street
to assist their host and hostess in the
twenty-ninth celebrauqq of their wed
ding. Upon th6e 6tn of March, 1S66, in
St. Louis, Mo.this famous frontiersman
whose name has since become a houaer
hold word 'upon two continents, was
joined in marriage; At that time, it is
sate to say, tne young couple did not
realize what was in store for them.
After a brief residence in thestite of the
jayhawkor and the more recently Mary
Yellin,Lease, the happy couple made the
long overland journey to the Ft. Mc
Pherson military reservation, in this
county. The mutations, which they
have witnessed in their residence of over
a quarter of a century in Lincoln county,
if spread upon history's printed pages?,
would prove very interesting reading.
The omnivorous Ogallalab, the crafty
Cheyenne and the pillaging Pawnee, the
long-haired Texan teer, and the toil
calloused agriculturalist have passed bo
fore them in kaleidoscopic changes,
presenting a pleasing panorama of more
than passing interest. From the period
when horned herds of bisons roamed un
checked upon qur prairies to the time
of their displacement by the sturdy
Shorthorn is an interesting epoch in tho
development ot Nebraska. Contempor
aneous with, this transition, and of
which he was a portion, stands almost
alone North Platte's most noted citizen
"Buffalo Bill " He has witnessed the
sly Sioux warrior sneaking about the
military reservations in search of a drink
of fire-water while his squaw was trying
to trade the "bowld sojer-boy" out of a
pair of pantaloons for her personal adorn
ment. But it is not the purpose of the para
grapherto 'dwell upon tho interesting
pictures now stored in the archives of
Nebraska's history.. As mission is to
chronicle the currpt eftnts as they enter
into oft-times the oMjion of the past
Those presentat tho reception mentioned
above were entertained- in the, most
hospitable manner peculiar to Col. Cody
and his wife; The evening was spent in
social games nd conversation, inter
spersed with, music by the Gordon cornet
band, all uniting m causing the affair to
pass off as Pleasantly as tho proverbial
marriage bell. Ata seasonable hour the
guests dispersed tb their' several homes,
all joining-irr- wisKing their host and
hostess many happy returns of the occa
sion, and hoping- that thoy might bo
spared to celebrate their diamond anni
versary
A telegram btas been received by the
county commisBiojoors from General
Mannger Holdredge, of the B. & M ,
stating that his company would not fur

GREAT CRY AND LITTLE WOOL.
Pursuant to a call a largo and
widely located number of oUr citizens
assembled in the cofinty judgo's room
Wednesday evening, the court room
being occupied by the District court.
After some little delay S. G. Diehl was
chosen chairman of the-meeting and J.
W. Elhngham secretary. Mr. Dieh
briefly stated tho object of tho convoca
tion. C. F. Iddings was then called upon
and said that as he understood thesitua
tion the meeting was for the purpose of
planning a method to secure seed for
those who were unable to purchase; as
for those who were able to buy he knew
there would be no trouble, and that he
intended to ship in a number of cars of
grain to supply such demand just as
soon as the railroad companies, had
decided upon just what rate of freight
they would charge therefor. Had those
present paid close attention to this "tip
coming from so sagacious a business man
as the speaker it would have shut off
considerable of tho after debate which
followed.
E. W. Crane then moved that tho
county central relief committee bo
authorized to select three men to goejist
as a soliciting committee to procure such
seed grain. Mr. Iddings amended by
leaving the number optional with the
committee, after which he faded away
into the darkness of the night, his presc
ience proving to him that tho meeting
would be largely barren of practical "re
suits. R. D. Thomson, as county cora-mis.-.ioner
and ex efficio member of the
county central relief committee here
interjected the thought that if the mat
ter was to be handled by the latter
organization, it would have to take its
rniriilfir nrrlfirt anrl nnnlionnfa fnr conrl
O " 7 "i'f
would have to sign blank No. 7, one of
tno regular iorm prescribed by the state
relief commission. This was a new idea
to many present, and aroused much
opposition. After a great deal of ramb
ling desultory discussion,the motion and
amendment were decisively voted down.
A motion was then made that the
county commissioners be requested to
send ten representative citizens from
Lincoln county as a seed soliciting com
mittee, and to devise ways and means to
provide for their expenses, the commis
sioners to have Ihe charge of tho distri
bution of such collections. This was
adopted, Rev. Foulk offering a motion
which was but a repetition of a portion cf
tho former, although it was also carried.
Some of those present seemed to have
a wrong concepiion of the purpose of the
assembly, appearing to confuse it with
ihe regularly created county central
committee. This was an error which
waB readily detected by a majority of
those present. Its purpose was entirely
outside of the relief bureau, and it was
to devise means for Lincoln county to act
independently of tbo state commis-ion
in this matter, something which is being
done by every one of the drouth-stricken
counties in Nebraska. Tho fooling gen
erally obtains, and more or less justly,
that if the matter of seed collection and
distribution were left to tho red-tape
methods of the state commission, that
the season would advance so far that
many counties of Nebraska would be
able to put m but a trifling crop. The
principal champions, at tho meeting, of
leaving tho matter in the hands of the
regular county relief committee had to
acknowledge this fact, during tho dis
cussion, when they admitted that they
had repeatedly asked for the establish
ment of six sub-stations iu Lincoln
county oy tno state reiiet commission
and could not get them. Subsequent
inrormation warrants tho belief that it
is extremely doubtful if this latter orga
nization will have ny funds for tho pur
chase of seed grain, or paying the freight
thereon; as the lower house of the legis
lature has passed a bill by a vote of 51
to 4.0 appropriating 8200,000 for this pur
pose, but without the emergency clause,
which makes tho. net effective after July
1st, 1895 about time to put in a crop of
buckwheat or turnips.
Tho talk at the meeting of the people
not being able to got a low freight rate
or freo transportation upon seed grain
without it having to go through the
hands of the state' relief commission,
was the rankest rot. Let tbo legislature
adjourn without providing any further
means for tho state relief commission
with which to do business, and you will
at once see a different aspect como over
the situation. Railway managers are
but human, and it is to their interest to
get pay for a necessary service if the ex
igencies of the situation when no other
means are provided do not practically
force them to free transportation. It is
to tho local traffic to which railway
officials look for furnishing dividends, as
cut throat competition frequently com
pels them to carry what is known as
through business at a very narrow mar
gin, if not an actual loss. It is, therefore,
good business policy for tho railway
management to ship seed free into a
locality, if by so doing it will have thirty
or more times the amount to haul out.
Another reason for such a course is that
the companies, who are tho heaviest tax
payers in the county, would thus relieve
themselves of a large burden of taxation
to support needy persons. Mr. Iddings
in bis brief remarks stated that this
-could be presented to tho railways in
such a manner that they would give
their consent, and that the companies
were onlv waiting for the properly au
thorized ' persons to procure the seed,
and then have tho request made by the
people's representatives.

As the matter stands it only remains
for tho county coaiinissioners to got
hustling solicitors in the field and secure
the seed, and tho matter of shipment is
an after detail. A number of the pre
cincts are alreJidy moving in this direc
tion, and to all such responsible solocit
ors the commissioners are furnishing
credentials. Such precincts are exhibit
ing their onergy and good judgment.
One fact developed by the meeting,
creditable to tho county central relief
committee, was tins: that tho organi
zation is pulling old Agricola through
tho winter season in fairly good shape,
ami while the old fellow is not fat, and
perhaps his clothes do not fit him so
smoothly as they did last fall, yet theio
is a great deal of vim and vigor about
his rugged frame, and tho capability for
many a hard struggle with the often
adverse battles of this life.
