I Sioux City Journal, October 22, 1893: It is said by some of the Dem ocrats of Dakota county that too many candidates on their ticket were chosen from Jackson, and the wise ones say if any defection oc curs in the ranks thnt will be the cause Philo Graves, a former resident of Sioux City, who went to San Diego a few years ago, is in town looking after his property interests. Mr. Graved is buying a little butter nnd shipping it to California, where a roll weighing U pounds is sold for !)0 conts. ... A farmer in- the city from Dakota county says the farm- 'ers are taking advantage of the pres ent fine weather and much corn is being husked. He said a great many cattle are coining in from Sioux City and Omaha markets to be fed, but did not think as many cattle would be fattened this year in Dakota county as last. At present, he said, cattlemen are holding oft for the late market. . . .An attempt has been made by the Combination Bridge company to estimate the probable receipts of the Pacific Short Line bridge. The only basis for an estimate is the receipts of the pon toon bridge. This bridge was a gold mine during the palmy days of Cov ington from 1888 to 1891. Then a dividend was declared at the end of every week. The figures of the Iowa and Nebraska company's for the poorest one of those years show that an average amount of $157.50 a day was collected for tolls. This past month, even when the travel has been light and with nothing at Covington to attract tho nighthawks from hi ax City, about $56 a day has Lc" collected. It is expected thene,, . nidge will beat the palmy days' record. The street car feature is additional, travel on the big struc ture will be safer, und Covington will be on the map again. M. E.
