ALMA , August 3d , 1881.
The conception of the town of Almn ,
Harlan county , occurred in 1872 , but
the existence was prospective until
April 187D whonns a vigorous , infantile
village it demanded recognition us
ono of the somewhat numerous family
of Nebraska towns. G. D. Uordon
'nursed the town in liia log cabin hotel.
About this time n mandamus CHBO in
the 'couits gave the county sent of
llarlan county to Alma and from the
mewling and puling of n baby bug it
sprang at once into vigorous boyhood.
The railroads made proposals for
adopting the child , deeming it ono of
the most promising of the valley
youngsters , and built nn excellent
house in the southern part of town
and put the child's nnino over the
front door. Soon after the town , by
saving up itsnicklcs in its little bank ,
was able to build a substantial Court
House , ono of the boat in the valley.
The population of Alma is near
ly five hundred , and is growing
steadily. Now buildings nro con
stantly being oroetod and every thing
is indicative of prosperity.
Overbuilding , an error common to
towns that lia 'o temporary railroad
terminuses , never afllictud Alma , but
from its start to the present time , its
merchants have done a paying busi
ness.
ness.A company has 1/ocn formed and an
elevator is to bo built on the double-
quick , to handle the wheat and other
grain that will shortly bo flowing inhere
hero from both north and south. ,
Also a flouring mill is among the
now enterprises. The inoxhaustablo
supply of water furnished by the Re
publican will in the near future fur
nish power for scores , yes , hundreds
of such mills.
Cellars are being dug right and
left , residences going up on all sides.
A church will be erected this year ,
and a now school house in time for
winter use , in addition to the very
excellent school now existing.
An important improvement on ono
of the best corners in town , is a largo
general merchandise store , that is
being erected by Messrs. Smith and
Roberts.
Near the court house wo noted the
bricklayers hard at work on some
thing substantial for Judge Fisher.
There is an excellent opening hero
for a lumber dealer , and another furniture -
nituro house would do a good busi
ness ; in fact tliero is no line of trade
overdone , and Alma has her latchstring -
string out for all.
There are four church organizations
liero , two schools and no saloons.
COUNTRY" .
The land tributary to Alma has all
the advantages and very few disad
vantages. Conspicuous among the
K former is the soil which is very rich
and extremely easy cf cultivation. I
never traveled in a land whnro there
were so few weeds , no lack of running
water and better supplies of timber
than almost any other county iii west
ern Nebraska. The chief feature Of
the present glorions prospect is , how
ever ,
THE cnors.
The wheat crop of Harlan county is
said to average fifteen bushels to the
acre , and an immense increase in the
acreage over any former year.
Oats , not a largo acreage but an ex
cellent quality and an average of
about 40 bushels to the acre. Rye
.andbarley are also goodunillot in abun
dance and extra in quality. All of
these crops are harvested and cared
for.
for.Tho
The corn crop was never more
promising excepting in a few locations
where fields have a southern exposure ,
and the great heat of that notable
Wednesday scorched the tops. The
later corn is uninjured and gives indi
cations of being the best crop the
Republican valley has ever had. In
comparison with the portions of Iowa
and Eastern Nebraska traversed by
your correspondent this season , ho
must give tins vicinity the palm for
big results to the husbandman.
There have been no destructive
Btorms or insects hero and everyone
is hopeful and happy , The rainfall
has boon steady and not in excess ,
but fully sufficient for the require
ments of the healthy growth of vege
tation and proper destruction of insect
lifeMr.
Mr. J , T. Clark , the agricultural
implement dealer , gave us a few ideas
on the methods used by cultivators of
the soil hereabouts , Ono implement ,
the Chicago screw pulverizer , is used
to do all the work of ploughing , eood-
ing and harrowing. ' The Croft iron
wind mill is found to bo about the
only thing that stands the continued
hiuh winds of certain seasons.
I am indebted to Mr. Frank Schaf <
for for an extensive ride over the sur
rounding country , thus gaining mucl
from actual observation.
Mr. Sohaflbr's livery rigs , like hii
farm products and agricultural im
. ploments , are of the very best.
Having now concluded our sketch 01
Alma and its tributary country , it on
ly remains for mo to add that on th <
sixth page a business review of tin
town can bo found , and parties want
ing information on any particular lim
of business can there find the addrus :
of these engaged therein ; but in rca
cstato I want to especially comment
you to that most public-spirited , en
terprising ggntleman , Judge E. A
Fletcher , who , besides his law prac
tice , is devoting a great deal of hi
time to real estate matters.

Itaforo leaving Orleans I visited the
extensive manufactory of wagons and
jungles , owned by .1 J. Churl ton , but

Dniaha has only one institution
of the kind that will compare with
Mr. Charlton's.
Burton's bank shared the fame fate
ns Charlton's factory ami for that Mr.
liurton has our apology , nhich nt

ANOTHER MOHOA.N STORY.
A correspondent of the California
Alta sends the following contribution
o the literature of tho' Morgan mys-
cry :
In thn year 1810 the writer of this
article was detained some three weeks
n the Island of Malta , -while waiting
or a passage to Constantinople. IIo
.hero became acquainted with two
> ersons prominent m Morgan's history.
L'heso were Mr. William AVinthrop ,
our consul at Malta , and a Mr. Muir ,
an Englishman , who kept a book store
m the Strada Ilealla , in Balletta.
Joth of these gentlemen had boon
brmorly engaged in commerce in
Smyrna , in Asia Minor , and know
William Morgan well by the oxhibi-
ion of the first proofshcets of his
> ook-lotters addressed to him for-
norly , by his own account of him-
elf , and many points of cor
roborative evidence. There was
10 doubt of Ilia being the identical
Morgan among the many English and
Americans who know him. His story
vas that ho was abducted , as known ,
rom Rochester , N. Y. , taken across
ho river , and given in the middle ol
t to another party , two of whom were
British oliicors , and put upon a shij
jound to the Levant. Under a sworn
iromise novorto _ return , his 'life was
iparcd. IIo lived a precarious lifo in
Smyrna , was v ry poor , and lived on
; ho charities of the Franks , Botli
Mr. Winthrop and Mr. Mnir saw him
die on Sunday morning on a bench in
Front of a Turkish cafe. The writoi
found the cafe just as described , on ; *
street leadimi to the Jews' buryini
ground , some weeks later ,
On questioning Mr. Winthrop whj
an ovcnt so important " 3 as tc
affect our politics at the time hat
not been published , ho assured the
writer it had been done , and over
whelming proofs of the tacts sent tc.
the United States at that time , am
the writer distinctly remember. ! whoi
a boy reading the same ; but , as Thur
low Weed said at that time , ho wai
"a good enough Morgan" for tin
election. Perhaps no onu cared tc
hear of the living afterward. Neithoi
Winthrop nor Muir were Masons a
the timo. Mr , Winthrop is now ai
advanced ono. Some years since th
writer lived in the eamo hotel will
Judge Gillis , ono of the men tried fo
the abduction , and who was fnmilhirl ;
known as the man who killed Mor
"an. On relating the above facts t
him ho replied that for all the Mason
did to him ho ( Morgan ) might b
living yet , And it seems reasonabl
that the whole absurd story of hi
murder by the Masons should bo un
duratood and forgotten.
OOAT HAIRS- .
Six presidents of the United State

An American Desert.
Twenty years ago the great Ameri
can Desert was the terror of the over
land emigrant. It was impossible t
go around it , for it extended from th
Colorado to the Cascades. All th
routes that led to the land of promis
crossed it , and it was soon covorei
with the bleaching bones of block am
dotted with human graves. It i
about forty mijos from the lower civ
of Humboldt Sink to the Trucke
river at Wadsworth , nnd the nam
"Forty Mile Desert" given to th
stretflh has become known tlio worl

station that it appropriately calls
"Whito Plains. " This i .tbo lowest
point east of the mountains Emht
miles further is Mirage Station , which
might servo as a memorial to tlio un
fortunates who have been 1'otrayed '
from their proper course by t o picture -
