Farrell of this city under arrest on a warrant from Fremont county, Iowa, charging the young man with having committed forgery and for which he has been sought by the Iowa authori ties for the past several months. The chief of police some time ago received a request from the sheriff of Fremont county to look up the young man who was reported to be located in this part of Nebraska and after an investigation Chief Jones found a man answering the discription and name who was employed in the shops at this place, and at once got in touch with the sheriff of Fremont county, at Sidney, Iowa, and who yes terday afternoon drove over and with Mr. Jones arrested the young man and departed with him for Iowa. The young man who was alleged to have committed the crimes, did not make any protest and accompanied the sheriff back to Iowa without trou ble or protest. The sheriff of the Iowa county stated that the forgeries would total several hundred dollars and had been circulated in the form of checks in several of the towns in Fremont in the court house are very popular nowadays and County Clerk George Styles is busily engaged in carrying wood in to feed the flames in his pri vate office, while in the office of the clerk of the district court where the court sessions are being held, the at torneys have volunteered to supply the heat necessary to keep the wheels of justice from freezing. As one of the officials put it, it is too bad that this is not a campaign year as some of the political fences "could well be used for kindling and heat, thereby being put to practical uses.

It asks 'in the end for a permanent injunc tion against the collection of the tax ! based upon the present valuation, I which was fixed by the board this year at the same amount as fixed last year. It is alleged by the company that its property is valued at 120 per cent of its actual value and that farm lands are valued at 60 per cent of their actual value which imposes an unjust burden upon the railroad and is in violation of the state and fed eral constitutions. It is alleged the state board took into consideration credits and investments of the rail road which have nothing to do with the taxable value of the property of the company. The Burlington property in Ne braska was valued by the board at J137.589.7S2, or 48,081 per mile. 301 COUPLES GET LICENSES IN BLUFFS June may be the month of blush ing Drides, Dut it doesn t mean a thing to Justice of Peace, A.
