Plattsmouth's growth Is of tbat

The anti-monopolists are calling con

It is not as it should be.
There is a lamentable slaughter of
the king's english in the editorial col
umns of the Journal; evidently our
neighbor's text book has been seized by
au irate creditor for payment of rent.
One of the improvements this city
demands at once is the improvement of
Fifth s tree:, and the guttering of the
creek at Fifth and Slain. A work of
necessity that has long been postponed,
What Tub IIebald said yesterday
in regard to building a court house, is
worthy more than passing notice. The
people of Cass county should act in this
matter upon pure business principles.
Mb. Blaine's new boot will soon be

world-wide interest.
When die new telegraph law iii this

Ir has been suggested to The Her
ALU by one of our prominent business
men, that the Board of Trade, at some
early day enjoy au excursion to Kansas
City, the Chicago of the west ; a trip if
taken that would give all participating
an insight into what can be done by a
city that is brim full of energy and
vitality.
The Sutton Register and Beatrice
Express are wasting lots of wind over
Senator Van Wyck and the Otoe lands
The Omaha Republican couldn't stand
it to see these fellows Express their
ideas about the matter, and Register
ahead of it, so in order to get into the
ring and still be on the fence, it rather
insinuatingly challenges the State
Journal to aim and fire, while it "re
serves" until the facts become known
The State Journal can "straddle" toe
the Register and Express had better
fight it out alone.
In suixming up the seven years
record of Commissioner Raum, the
Inter -Ocean proudly says that he has
not only collected nearly a billion dol
lars for the government without the
loss of a cent, but under his careful
and economical management the cost
of collection wc smaller than It ever
was before under this or any other
government. Civil service reformers
can find plenty of food for reflection in
General Raum's record, although one
of his chief characteristics, of which
he was never ashamed, is his loyalty to
his party and his adherence to the po
litical machine.
ENGLISH IMMIGRATION.
There i3 a movement on the part of
English capitalists and workmen,
which will attract very general atten
tion. It is a very comprehensive
scheme of emigration, with a view to
the settlement of the fertile agricul
tural and grazing lands of Texas and
the northwest. It is said that twenty
five millions of capital are already
pledged on this subject. If so, the
present year will be the most remark
able in the history of this country in
the matter of immigration. It will be
noticeable in these respects the coun
try from which it comes, the capital
iavolved and the class of immigrants
brought over. England has no hith
erto furnished a large quota of immi-
grants. The policy of her capitalists
has been to draw our breadstuffs there
and use their labor in manufacture, so
that trade conditions might be main
tained. It has been a hard struggle of
late to keep up this condition of affairs.
No doubt this difficulty has had more
to do with the plans of emigration
than lack of opportnnity to use funds
in speculating in American railway
securities. Besides, the English have
become impressed that land, in this
country, represents a good investment.
No doubt there will be bad results in
more or less cases because of experi
ence, but the general outcome will be
favorable both to the immigrants and
the country. At all events the pros
pect is that some of the surplus popu
lation of England will flow to this
country, and capital as well. Council

HE NATIONAL MINING EXF091- j
TIUN.
Great Preparations Being Bade to la-
sore Its Success.
Correspondence of the Plattsmouth Herald,
Denveb, Col., April 30. 1888.
It ja stating nothing new to say that
Denver is growing rapidly and pros
pering as few other cities have ever
grown and prospered. The man who
tells you that it is " dull in Denver.?
may have found it a dull place for
him, but he certainly did not find manu
factories stopped, building retarded, or
business embarrassed. within the
past few months Denver has witnessed
the completion ot a three hundred and
fifty thousand dollar court house, a
two hundred and fifty thousand dollar
city hall, and a handsome theater, that
would ba considered a very important
affair, were it not so much eclipsed by
the Tabor GrandJOpera House.
Real estate dealers report numerous
sales and a constant increase in values
and even have sufficient c onfidence to
put new additions upon the market at
auction.
It is now within less than three
months of the time for opening the
National Mining Exposition, which
will throw open its doors with impos
ing ceremonies, on the 17th of July.
An immense amount of quiet work
has been done during the winter in
preparation for that event, and the
Exposition promises to be a success in
every particular, and an affair that the
whole West may well be proud of
Assignments of space will be made to
exhibitors on the first of June, and a
great number of applications have al
readv been received. The whole of
the ground floor of the main building
will be taken up by the display of ores
and minerals, mining machinery, and
state collections, and large annexes
will be built to hold other machinery
and miscellaneous, bulky articles. The
manufacturers and merchants of all
parts of the country, including Den
ver where they are much more eager
than last year are making heavy de
mands for space.
The State Horticultural Society of
Colorado will make au exhibit under
the auspices of the Exposition Asso
ciation, beginning July 23d, and last
ing till the close of the exposition
They promise a display of fruits and
flowers calculated to open the eyes of
eastern visitors as to the agricultural
capacity of the great plains.
The National Encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic begins
July 24th, and a large attendance is
expected. Colorado, Nebraska and
Kansas are looked to for an army of
over twenty thousand veterans, while
the trans-Mississippi States promise
immense delegations. This, with the
general convocation of the Grand
Chapter of Royal Arch Masons, and
the Knights Templar Encampment at
San Francisco, will turn the tide of
travel strongly to the westward.
The spacieus grounds will be hand
somely ornamented with trees, plants
and flowers, including some gigantic
specimens of cactus from New Mexico
and Old Mexico.
The Exposition could not be under
a better management. Its president,
ex-Senator Tabor, has been misrepre
sented through a portion of the press
recently, but he is also widely known
in his true relations to Colorado and
the mining industry. He is a man of
wide information and great business
capacity, hard-working, quiet, modest
and unassuming. He has helped hun
dreds of people to carry on honest and
profitable enterprises, and by his lib
eral investments in magnificent new
buildings and various kinds of busi
ness in Denver, has dene more than
any other man in recent years to build
up the city.
Hon. "W. A. A. Loveland, vice-president,
is also one of the best known
men in the State, a successful business
man and a prudent and careful mana
ger. Mr. T. C. Henry, ' chairman of the
executive committee, was the former
energetic and successful manager of
the Kansas City Fair, and has removed
to Denver in order to give his personal
attention to the affairs of the Exposi
tion in which he is largely interested.
His practical knowledge will be found
of great value.
The Secretary, Mr. T. M. Nichol, of
national reputation as Secretary of the
Honest Money League,and afterward as
private Secretary of President Garfield,
is an energetic man of wide experience
and liberal views, and the assistant
secretary, Mr. F. H. Wilson, has shown
great ability as a successful organizer.
Mr. Nichols has recently sold his inter
est in the firm of Nichol, Hatch & Co.,
in New York, and the connection with
other eastern men made heavy invest
ments in Denver. lie has also come
here to reside in order to be able to
giver his full attention to his exposition
duties and other Denver interests.
One by one the states and territories
are announcing their intention to be re
presented at the exposition, and even
distant Vermont will be on hand with
manufactures and a fine display of or
namental marble and granite. Among
the attractions which will probably be
secured are the mineral cabinet belong
ing to the Dominion of Canada, and
also the magnificent mineral collection
of the United States of Mexico. .
