And shield our glorious Flag from Shamo.

TriE Nebraska Chautauqua Assem
bly at Crete , June 27th to July 4th ,
promises to be the greatest meeting
ever held in the state. An excellent
propram has been made and everything
done necessary to make it a success.
The Oklahoma investigations are
proceeding , but so far nothing has been
found to positively criminate any United
States deputy marshals in taking up
land prior to the date fixed by the pres
ident. The investigation , however , is
not yet completed.
The street sprinklersOf Lincoln have
gone to law. One fellow procured li
cense for some sixteen miles of streets
a part of which covered the territory
claimed by another , which has led to
tho legal proceedings. The constitu
tionality of the ordinance is being
tested.
To sit behind a three-minute horse
hour after hour , would seem to be pret
ty fast traveling. The steamer City of
Paris , which made such a wonderful
run recently , averaged on some days
21 miles an hour , nearly a 2:40 : gait
the twenty-four hour through. And
yet steamship builders are not satisfied.
They want a 2:30 : gait.
The committee on trusts appointed
by the New York legislature has report
ed that a trust is harmless as long as it
remains a trust , but that as soon as it ,
becomes a "corner" it is objectionable
and ought to be suppressed by legisla
tion. This work evidently exhausted
the committee , for no legislation was
outlined nor any remedies suggested.
The people of Genoa , Italy , are al
ready beginning preparations for the
celebration in 1892 of the completion of
the fourth century since the discovery
of America by their fellow-townsman ,
Mr. Columbus. They propose to cele
brate the event in a unique manner , and
one that is appropriate as well. The
Municipal Council has been directed to
confer with the National Government
and to secure the construction at Genoa
of a first-class ironclad. This it is pro
posed to have ready for launching Oct
ober 8 , 1S92 , that being the-day of the
month when Columbus landed at Sai. -
Salvador. The vessel is to christened
tho Cristoforo Colombo , and will l.e
constructed in the best possible manner.
Articles nf incorporation of one of
the largest companies ever formed in
the state , were filed in the office of Sec
retary of State last week. The capital
stock is $1,000,000 , divided into shares
of $100 each , and its object is to found
a beet sugar factory in Lincoln county ,
about thirty mile ? south of North
Platte. Nearly ali the capital is for
eign and conies from England and Nova
Scotia. It has been found from analy
sis that some of the finest quality of
sugar beets have been raised in this vi
cinity. The official analysis was sent
to London , from thence to Germany
and France. It was-proclaimed by all
to bp the best percentage of sugar in
beets ever heard of , being nearly 17 per
cent. , 5 per cent , above the average of
Germany , Erance or England. Reports
state that that quantityjOLbeets should
easily produce from Pft SOO pounds
or sugar per ton. IM reqtmg great
excitement in the ollmj airy. tt is es
timated that from | Hwp20 | | tons of
beets can be raised pjgglpi The price
paid for beets deliver r be factory
will be about $4.00Mpfcjs rate the
farmer will make froj lf o $100 per
