Kearaer w opposed to having this city desig nated as the. place for holding United States court, claiaiag that as we have the land office we should be content. North Platte does not want the earth, bat it does believe that this is the most convenient point for the people of western Ne braska to attaad United States court. It is easy of access and has a central location. In addition to the large number who receive the Ceatury Magazine through lbs mail, K. W. Hammoadv eapplies about thirty-five copies to regular readers each month, besides disposing of a large rather of Barper'6 and Scribners. This is an ijaJamaian that our people read a good class of literaaa; In this connection The Tribune woald stale that those wishing to have their mag arises boaad can leave them at this office and we will harethaaa bound for $1.25 par volume, six numbers enaeti toting a volume.

The gentlemen thk oraankation are all interested iu the welfare of the town and they should know' that "what is good for the town is also good for them individ ually. The board of trade should awaken from its lithargic sleep and do a little rustling. In or der to bring business to our town wo must show the advantages we possess. Let us act in unity and good will result. A correspondent of the State Journal, writing from Logan, gives the following account of the forgeries of B. H. Mitchell: "The forged county warrants of B. H. Mitchell, ex-county clerk and judge, are accumulating very day nntil about $900 have turned' np and there is no guessing where the ead may be. The bank of Arnold is the heaviest loser so far as known, with the First National of North Platte and the Logan County bank a good second and third. Honaker Bros., money loanors of Gandy, and Hupfer of North Platte are also out large amounts on snide chat tel mortgages, while his bondsmen are also out on money paid into his hands as district court clerk and squandered for drink and gambling. The board of county commissioners have offered a reward of $100 for his return and conviction on any one of tho "many forgeries, while the banks and his bondsmen are raising a purse to odd to the reward, which will make the amount in the neighborhood of $300. He mortgaged not only a large amount of ficticious property but also his wife's team, as well as her house and lots in Gan dy, and after the mortgage was acknowledged forged her name thereto. His offico fees were sufficient to make him more than a comfortable living, but "Strong drink hath destroyed many." A gentleman in North Platte tells how ho has been known to carry off at the gaming tables there in one night six hundred dollars, but he doesn't say who carried oil the same money the next night. He did not stop when his term of office as county clerk expired, but supplied him self with blank warrants and has been forging the name of the present clerk, C. C. Beckwith. A large number of the warrants have found pur chasers amongst the brokers of Lincoln. His of fice has been declared vacant, and next week an election will be ordered to fill his place as county judges also to vote bonds to complete the court house." A new time card will go into effect to-morrow but we understand no material changes will be made, the desired end being to make closer connections with the Iowa roads at Council Bluffs. Mr. Allum, of the Roller Mill, returned Wednesday from a trip up the road in the interest ofhis firm. The Hoar made by this mill is in good demand all along the V. P. west of the city. Mr. Moody, the evangelist, arrived in Hastings Thursday and will bold a series of meetings in that city. Mr. Moody's tame extends over the civilized world and his, success as an evangelist has become a part of the religious history of the present day. Grand Island with its usual push and vigor, is making bids for the Democratic state convention. The Tribune would like to see her get it. A gentleman who made a trip over theB. fcM. Denver line last week in forms us that the people of Culbertson are confident that a branch will be built from that point to North Platte. Just at present the air is full of railroad rumors, some of which are bound to matarialize. The strike on the B. & M. or some other cause delayed the mails so that our Wallace and Wellfleet correspondence came to hand just before we went to press yesterday evening, too late for publication this week. Gt). R Golvin has entered suit agaiaat Jno. Keith, J. Jft . Bickal, W. H. Dudley nd Wm. Alger for malicious proeeeertion and false imprisonment, placisf the damages at ten thousand dollar.

Five or six inches of snow would be welcomed bv farmers. The ground is quite dry, and moisture from this source would be a great benefit. Oysters served in any style at Hin man House Lunch Room. The storm of Thursday caused a tem porary let-up on building operations, but the work will be pushed all the more rapidly when fair weather sets in. In his recent lecture tour, Bill Nye came as far west as Nebraska, and gave a lecture at Hastings. Bill is acquiring quite a reputation as a platform orator. The G. A. R. memorial meeting at Odd Fellows Hall this evening in memory of late Comrade Anthony Ries, will be public, and all friends are invited te attend. The interior of the Palace clothing store has been freshened in appearance by a liberal coat of kalsomine. This is preparatory to the stacks of goods to be received in a couple weeks. - With the exception of the-Catholic entertainment, we believe there is nothing as yet billed for the opera house this month. Theatrical companies do no,t seem to be coming our way. v . - " McEvoy has repapered, painted and re-arranged the shelving in his store, giving everything a much more artistic appearance." Mac proposes to have as fine looking store room as there is in West Nebraska. Business men generally are of the the opinion that before this month passes by business will look up considerably and by the first of April trade will bo good. It is hoped such predictions will provo true. PBOFLaV AND SVSNTa XrsVE. R. Griffin spent Thursday with relative in. Kearney. Lester Eells spent the early part of the week in Nebraska's metropolis transact ing bqsiness. J. H. Holiday a B. & M. contractor from lhe North Loan.

Mrs. Ries took her son Tony to Omaha Tuesday evening to have his eyes treated, fears being entertained that he was grad ually losing his sight R. D.Thomson went downto Plum Creek Monday Morning, where he will likely take contracts to put up a number of large ouildings daring the summer. We understand that Louis Burke will shortly move to this city and make this his home. He .and his esjjnajble wif will-be gladly welcomed friend? by tbeir many Judge Church was in our city last Thursday circulating a petition to have the U. S. court located at North Platte. The petition was signed by a number of our citizens. Under the new districting several towns are competing for its loca tion, but we hope our neighbor may be successful Ugalalla Jtcflector. MissEfnie A. Dougherty, sister of Mrs. James Ray, and well known in this city as a teacher, was married at her fathers house in Secorro, N. M., on Feby 22d, to Mr. Joseph A. Bent jr., of Lincoln, this State. The couple will make the latter place theirhome. The building association held its regular monthly meeting in the court house hist Saturday evening. Two loans were made of 1,000 each, the premium offered being forty per cent. That would make the annual interest just ten per cent on the amount received by the borrowers. The meeting called by Mayor Ham mond to convene at the court house last Saturday to discuss city extension matters, was not called to order for want of a quorum of the council. Tho members probably wanted more time to consider what the- had' already heard on the subject.

The information giving rise to our statement was received from W. S. Peniston, chief clerk in the land office, and from Mr. Patterson. Mrs . J . F. Hinman returned from New York on Friday of last week, and we are informed the medical treatment she received while away has resulted quite beneficially. Rufus Br ices, who had been suffering with rheumatism for a couple weeks, was taken to Omaha the early part of the week for treatment. It is hoped he will soon return completely restored. Miss Kate Bentley, who sprained her ankle at the last Apollo Club dance, is improving much more slowly than she and her many friends desire, being at present unable to walk without assistance. J. W.

A half dozen couples of Mr. H. S. Keith's friends gave him a little surprise on Wednesday evpning, the day before , having been the anniversary of his advent into this world of -pleasure and sorrow. The guests were entertained at progressive euchre until midnight During the even ing light refreshments were served. The attendants passed the hours pleasautly and on departing wished the genial H. S. many returns of his anniversaiy. In the summer of 1885 a small band of buffalo numbering about 40 passed through this county. Several of them were killed, some calves caught, and the balance were driven southwest out of the county. This little band were the last wild buffalo that will ever be on Keith county soil, nothing is left but their old trails and now and then a horn or some bones to tell that they ever existed, where but a few years ago, tens of thousands of them existed and grew fat on the rich grass of these prairies. Paxton Pilot. On Wednesday we evidently caught some of the raw wind that had covered the eastern part of the State" for a few days previous, judging from the State Journal Topics xnavT. He says: Pat riotic citizens will observe that, the wind of the past few days has the Nebraska signature engraved on its label. There is but one Nebraska and the zephyr is its prophet. Considering the raw winds of the past few days it is a pleasure to turn to the Bible and find that the day cometh which shall burn as stubble." The second election for the location of the county seat in Perkins county took place on Tuesdav last. Grant people had been in the habit of casting so many illegal votes that Madrid decided to watch them and prevent, if possible, a repetition of the same. A row resulted, the com mittee being handled and some of the members pounded in a rough manner. Up to yesferday morning no news of the result of the election had been received. There is hot blood in both Madrid and Grant, and the war is itf progress. In view of the fact that there are quite a number of farmers short of seed wheat, and especially from the fact that much of the wheat raised here isr of an inferior flour making quality, steps "were taken early this week to secure several car loads of Dakota wheat for seed pur poses. A society of subscribers was formed who raised the and tne wheat will soon plan is to sell the seed to farmers at cost, to be paid for after next harvest. This will be a good thing for all parties con cerned, insuring the sowing of a. much larger breadth of grain, at the same "time making it easy for farmers to get seed of a superior quality.

Streitz, of Omaha, father of- the druggist, stopped over Sunday to visit his son, being on his way from California . He was a former freighter over the plains when it took eight months to make a trip to Montana and return; now if he con sumes six weeks in a journey to Califor nia he considers it a waste of time.

Grimes leaves for Washington to-day for the purpose of presenting North Platte's advantages as a point for holding United States court Mr. Grimes will undoubtedly do his level best for the town. He will be absent about two weeks. Among the hard working "boosters" in the late county-seat contest in Perkins county was C. C. Williams, until recently an attorney of this city. Being a resident of Grant, he quite naturally advocated the rights of that place. Nebraska is remarkable for two things u she has 3,751,556 acres of school land and is the second stato in the union in regard to sweet potato culture, the average production being 117 bushels to the acre. A resident of the First ward sends in the following: "Some person is cutting off large limbs from the trees along First street Come, do not mar the beauty of those trees. It took money to put them there not only money but hard work and patience." A few hours spent in Ogallala Mon day convinced the writer that the resi dents are of the progressive stripe. A school house costing $7,000 is receiving the finishing touches and as soon as the weather will permit work will be com menced on a court house which when completed will cost $18,000. A Card.
