Wall paper 5 cents per double roll H O Truman SAY ELKHORN WILL EXTEND Will lluild Verdicre Branch Into Country Thcro seems to be a possibility that Boyd county Nobraskn between the Niobrara and Missouri rivers will bo tapped by a railway which will bring the livestock of tho district to this city but it is not likely to be the Atkinson Niobrara River railway It is reported from Lynch on unquestioned authority that tho Elkhorn road intends to extend its Verdigre branch as far as Gross a newly platted town Tho promoters of the Atkinson Niobrara S A Hnrris nnd O A Perry who havo been in Sioux City repeatedly to finance their project planned the con struction of a narrow gauge line from Atkinson which is on the main lino of the Elkhorn northeast to the vicinity of Spencor Tho region in Boyd county north of tho Niobrara is thickly settled and there are mnny small towns in existence there all panting for the advent of n railwny in their vicinity Rumored ex tensions of tho Elkhorn have been heard repeatedly but in this case it is given out cold that the rond will be built in timo to handle tho fall crop of grain Sioux City Tribune Before you buy your wall paper see what H C Truman can show you for 5 cents per double roll Stock taken to pasture during tho coining season Enquire of W H Boyd or at The News oSce Tho Pessimist on Steam These views of an ancient economist regarding steam railways is reproduced from the Tilden Citizen the editor hav ing the paper from which it is taken in his possession It is from the East Kent Journal published May 12 1828 and in view of modern developments is somewhat laughable We Englishmen can no longer bo blind to the power of the steamjengine as a carrying power in our island The Stockton and Darlington railway is carrying people at the speed of 15 miles an hour in safety and is building a species of truck to carry goods at tolls that will bring starvation to them which are now in that business Companies are banding their money together for building railways between London and all the chief towns of the kingdom and unless his majestys government can be made to wake up and interfere wide spread panio and unsettled trade will be upon us What we aBk will become of the horse market if this thing is al lowed to go on I Our farmers are al ready on the verge of desperation at the removal of the hop duty and if the new vogue of travel is allowed to spread the horses which have been Britons pride for 14 centuries will be sold for knackers A knacker is a worn out horse sold for its hide and the flesh cut up cooked and sold in the cities as cats meat Commenting on this the Citizen says The editer had he been living today would certainly have been a populist for he goes on to show that horses being no more in demand fodder oats and other crops used for horse feed will have no marketable value and winds up by calling on all Englishmen to rise in their might and compel the administra tion to pass legislation that will kill off the projected railroads aud save Eng lishmen from ruin What makes this quotation particularly interesting read ing today is that England has since then become a complete network of railroads but that Instead of horses bo coming a drag on the market the Brit ish government is now scouring the United States for a 6upply of the ani mals necessary to hold the British Em pire together by completing its military operations in South Africa Bnmp Steamer Ramona Blows Near Vancouver Up SIX OTHERS ARE INJURED Holier ip1mri In Midstream nnil Victim Are llliMTii Into Include Two
