May fifth is "Arbor day" in the
"land of the Dakotas. "
The Omaha World has carefully can
vassed the field and reports prohibition
on the increase everywhere.
Ey-Senator Davis of Virginia , now
worth $20,000,000 , was once a railway
brakeman. It is notable , however , that
in that capacity he never slammed the
car door or called out the names of stac
tions in Chinese.
Our ! of 306 indictments .found by a
Chicago grand jury 200 were against
county officials and 106 against em
ployes. These men may all be honest ,
but it will be surmised that such a vol-
ume of smoke is indicative of fire.
McCook's goblet of joy is overflow
ing with satisfaction. Hereafter the
defunct of the town will be ferried over
the range in "a gold-mounted hearse
with handsome fluted columns and
plate glass sides and dashboard , " which
will enable the guest to view the pro1
cession. Bee.
If a man publiphes a libel in the
state of Nebraska without justification ,
his chances are good to go to the peui-
tentiary. But an army of men can
circulate slanders on an honest man
and as long as they only circulate them
by word of mouth no penalty can be
imposed.
The Cincinnati Enquirer says that
the inter-state law comes particularly
hard on the circus people , and it is ren
ported that the managers will raise a
purse of $10,000 to test the constitu-
tionality of the law. It is proposed to
engage the lion. Allen G. Thurman to
look after their interests.
The Omaha Herald "complains that
.
the signing of the anti gambling bill will
throw 250 men "outof employment"in
that city , and intimates that it will be
bad , very bad , for the business of the
town. The Lincoln bureau of the Omaha
Bee is sad and despondent , because in
Lincoln the same act will deprive fifty
stalwart citizens of their means of liveli-
hood. Upon the whole we had better
run the risk involved and support the
poor fellows at the public expense if
they can find no other work to do. It
will cost the community less in the end.
The introduction of a police force that
could be fairly efficient in the two cities
could perhaps throw a large number of
able burglars out of employment and
yet we should not be porry to lose their
valuable services in building up the busi
ness interests of the capital. Journal.
The farmers of Upper Uriftwood prev
cinct , Hitchcock county , Neb. , have
formed j themselves into an associationj
called ' the Mutual Protection and In-
struction society , articles of incorpora-
; tion of which were received by the seci
retary ; of state for record , recently.
The objects of the association are the
mutual , protection of its members in all
their 1 legal rights and also to dissemi
nate i information relating to agriculture ,
horticulture j , forestry , stock raising and
everything < of interest to farmers. Mer
chants , lawyers , bankers , land and loan
agents , and others "pursuing vocations
not consistent with regular farming" \
are not eligible to membership. The s
names of thirty-one substantial farmers 1

Articles of incorporation of * the

General Manager Holdrege was in

TOWN. 4 , RANGE 30.
That rain , Sunday night , did good.
Sir. Boyd had eight acres broken on his treo
claim.
Mr. Summers is cultivating the Eastcrday
farm , this season.
John McCotter is planting flvo acres to trees
on bis tree claim.
F. Nichols of Adel , Iowa , is assisting Geo.
Coleman on the farm.
Will Smith Is having Ave acres more broke
out on his tree claim.
Wo noticed In the door yard of Wm. Coleman
an apricot in full bloom.
J. W. Corner was in McCook , Monday , after
trees to plant on his farm.
J. W. Corner had the misfortune to loose a
colt on Sabbath morning last.
It appears "Hi" is forcing tho season , as ho
was out picking corn on Monday.
Health is good. Wo don't know of a casoof
sickness in this town. Everybody happy.
M. F. Horroll was elected treasurer of this
school district at annual meeting , last week.
H. Thrailkill went down to McCook , Monday ,
and brought out 14,000 forest trees to plant on
his treo claim.
John Coleman and H. Thrailkill , of Hayes
county , came down to McCook , last week , to
lay in supplies.
We understand Mr. Frame of this town , went
down to Hartley and woke up the county
superintendent.
While in town , Friday , H. Thrailkill had a
sick horse which detained him until Saturday.
The horse got well.
John It. Coleman purchased a span of horses
on Saturday. Thoy are threo and four years
old and said to bo daisies.
We are informed that school in district No.
Co , in this town. , commenced last Monday , but
did not learn tho teacher's name.
M. H. Colo and family visited in Hayes coun-
ty on Sabbath. They renewed old acquaint-
anceship with the family of Thos. Martin.
They returned home , Monday.
That pie plant pie we assisted in hiding
away , last Sabbath , was jnst splendid , but
with all our efforts we could not get away
with inoro than half of it , and wo can't be in-
duced 3 to givo it away in to whero we enjoyed
it.
In the absence of Mrs. Wm. Coleman , who
is : visitingin Iowa , Miss Gertie is loo'cintr after
the poultry. She has taken off over two hund
dred young chicks already , and has about
twenty-flve more hens setting. That boats all
the iucubators there are in the town. Toss up
your bonnets girls.
During the high wind , Saturday afternoon ,
tho out-bouses at our school house , started to
ward North Platte. We noticed tho director
vn
and F. Amend gathering up the pieces , Mon
day , and by night the director had one in place.
It is supposed that soiuo of the lumber was
carried entirely away , in a wagon that came
by that afternoon , as somf of it can't be
found.
When we need rain again , wo will just send
M. H. Colo and family off to Hayes county vis
iting. He stated to us , yesterday , that for the
past two years it had either rained or snowed
every time , without a failure , that he had
eg
gone up there on a visit , and staid over night ,
He went up last Sunday and it rained before
Monday moniug , and then on Tuesday it com
menced before nine o'clock in the morning ,
and kept at it almost incessantly until after
ten > o'clock at night.
What have become of those dry weather
prophets ? Not one to be found. You speak
to one of them and he will say , "I told you we
would gcti-ain. " It is almost eightyears since
we came here and during that time we have
had little or no rain during the month of
March. One time there was no rain from Octou
ber Hth to May ICth , yet fair crops were raised.
At our farm , there has bean no rain to do tho
soil any good since the 28th of July last , and
very little snow during tho winter , yet the old
land i has been in excellent condition for tillage
all spring , especially where it was plowed deep
last season. We favor early and deep plowing.s
rather ; than fall plowing , for corn. Put the
plow down , I mean in old land.

A Popular Cyclopedia.
A Cyclopedia which presents concise and
readable biographical sketches together with
choice and characteristic selections from the p
writings of eminent authors of all ages and
all nations , surely ought to bo in great popu
lar demand if its cost were not prohibitory.
Such a work is Alden's Cyclopedia of Univerj
sal Literature , Volume VI , of which , nowpubw
lished ; , contains 479 pages , largo type , beauti0j
fully printed and bound , and includes within ai
it tho names of eighty-two eminent authors , a
among which are : Dana , Dante , Darwin. Jefn
ferson | Davis , Daudet , Sir Humphrey Davy , a
DeFoo ( of Itobinson Crusoe fame ) . Demosp
thenes , DeQuincey , Descartes , Dickens , Dodp
dridge , Disraeli and Douglas. It would seem a
hardly possible to plan any literary work
more ] eminently readable and interesting , if
the compiling and editing were well done e1
and tho nearly universal verdict seems to be "
that this IS very well done indeed. And the E
price ! Only the Literary Revolution could tr
have accomplished such a wonder 50 cents a 01
volume for these beautiful cloth-bcund-books "
60 cents for half-Morocco. The publisher ct
effers a sample volume to any one with priv- 20
"
ilege of return if not satisfactory. Anyone
interested in high class literature ought to pi
send for Mr. Alden's (54 page catalogue of P.
Standard Hooks , which is free to any appliP
cant. Address. John B. Amiex , Publisher ,

BANKSVILLE.
Some miscreants seem to have taken a con
tract to destroy this country by prairie fire.
Miss Flora Bell was over from her school
visiting her many friends on Saturday and
Sunday. j
The hitherto hard-hearted heavens were at

day evening.
Wallie Cieager , son of Pete Creaser , has

A. Olmsted's family was called upon to
mourn the loss of their little babe , on last
Saturday. The funeral took place from tho
school house on Sunday , Rev. Kennedy
preaching the funeral sermon. Thus the
grim harvester does his work , taking the roses
as well as the thorns.
As to the articles written by us under the
bead of Banksvillc , we will say that we make
it a point to chronicle any news wo may bo so
fortunate as to find , without regard to locali
ty , in fact our territory has no specific boundl
ary lines. There is nothing small about us &
but our salary , hence we have not felt com
pelled to place a very small environment
around our place of selecting news.
Lem. Cross and Eugene Marshal suffered se
vere losses in tho fire on Friday. W. H. Ben
jamin also lost about § 300 worth of property ,
while severalother parties lost all or a part
of their property. This blow comes with dis
astrous effect on most of our citizens , as there
are ) very fow of us who arc Vanderbilts , hence
not , able to sustain these severe losses. Wo
do ( not think it would be advisable for the °
parties ; who started the fires to make their aprj
pearance , in this community , unless they want 2tf
free pass to glory.
The correspondent from Pleasant Prairie is
evidently a stranger in this community , as
the question in regnrd to the location of
Eanksyille would seem to indicate , so we will in
try to enlighten him. Banksvillc is situated
pr
on the Southwest Ji of Section 23 , Township 1 , f0
Range 30 , about 99 rods from the southwest
co
corner , Cl rods from the southeast corner and
" rods from the south line of said H section. - . ,
The ' population was never very large , and at
