been visiting his frienda in Sioux City
for a week and now he ia going baca to
grass on his farm in Nebraska, said
an old friend of Samuel Perrin, as he
helped the old veteran into his over
coat and scoured his suitoe.no at the
Chicago house preparatory to taking a
train for bis home. "Call it a farm u
you want," retorted "Uncle Sam" via
orously, "but I'm here to say that it's
just a ranch. Why it takes to acres
to keep a goose ou that place of niiue,
Mr Perrin stopped at the Chicago house
where he waa visited by a number ol
frienda ot old days when he was a well
known Sioux Gityun. He is now loon
ted on a ranch ueur Mumper, Uarduu
oounty, Neb. Although 77 years of
age be lives alone on the ranch ana is
his own cook and housekeeper .lie is
looking forward with pleasure to a vis
it from his sou, who is to spend next
summer with him. Mr Perrin served
iu the twentieth Iowa iufautry during
the civil war "I came to this stut 73
years ago," suid Mr Perrin, who in
known to a largo number of Hioux
Cityuns as "Umle Sam." "There
wasu't much to brag about iu the state
at that time. We made the trip from
Iudiana down the Ohio river and up
tl e MiHBisuppi and lauded at Clinton
I lived in Iowa ever since that time
until three years ago when I went on
the ranch. . "flay 1 had a gloat time

After all there is no place like Sioux

short session of congress. Letters
from citizcns on the South Sioux City
side have been seut to the nenator ask
ing him to disinter the bill and push it
through in the hope that the govern
ment would purchase the structure,
which now is owned by the Combina
tion Bridgo company. Mr Brown in
troduced the measure at the request of
South Sioux Citians two years ago up
on requests from residents of that side
of the river. Members of the Sioux
City, Crystal Lake & Homer Railroad
company are vitally interested in the
movement This oompany, whioh has
obtained control of what waa known as
the Foye line, has holdings in the park
at Crystal Lake, which it hopes to
popularize aa a summer resort. A free
bridge means a reduction in car fare
from Sioux City, whioh would be an
appreciable advantage in promoting
traffio to the lake. Charles J Ray, of
the Crystal Lake distillery, is one of
the enthusiastic advocates of the free
bridge. However, he is not sanguine
that the senator would be successful
in obtaining passage of the measure
even were it brought out of committee.
"There is no doubt about the oonven
ience ind help a free bridge would
mean to both Sioux and South Hioux
City," said Mr Ray. "On this side of
the river such a movement would mean
a vast stride foreward were it success
ful. I do not know how many perxons
have taken the matter up with the
senator. The movement while con
certed, is individual in its nature.
The letters from Mr Brown's constitu
ents are all personal." E A Burgees,
attorney for the Combination Bridge
company, said : "Personally I cannot
see where the government would take
up such a proposition. It would be
revolutionary were it to pass. How
ever, if the government wants to buy
the bulge the company is wil ing to
sell for half what it cost "
