Attendance at the world's fair is increasing in an encouraging degree, and it will grow still more when the railroads" lower their rates. Half-rates would undoubtedly add to the revenues of the roads.. Hating expressed the opinion that no good things can be expected of the republican or democratic parties the Era should now state what actions of the populist party, so far as it has cone, commends it to the voters of the country. The tjsrtv has been in exislenee in Ne braska for three years aud has been in position to do some good for the people, but has it done it.- - Tv the German elections last week the social democrats made ' large gains and it is believed that the 1 several parties antagonistic to the armv bill will have sufficient strength to defeat it. The growth of .socialism in the empire is much dreaded by the emperor and if it extends to the army he will nave to resort to war in order to win by mpjiTis of military elorv all those whoara not yH- attacked by sociafc , wuc ideas. r. : Chief Justice Fuller last Sat urday overruled the decision of the 'federal circuit court which issued ?4he injunction restraining the direc- . tors of the world s fair iroin open ' ings the gates on Sunday. He de cides for the United States court of appeals and remands the case to the circuit court for the reversal of its r'action. The decision settles the " matter finallv as the onlv anneal is w w l a the supreme court which does no '"meet until October, and bv that 4time the fair will be ended. At - torney General Olney says he doubt less will be confronted with a prop- osition to take legal steps to recover the 81,500,000 paid by the govern ment on the condition that the fair would be closed on the Sabbath. Notwithstanding that most of the arable land in possession of the government open to citizen occupa tion has already been taken up there yet remain nearly a billion acres which have not been disposed of. To be exact the total number is 966, 116, 283 acres, of which about 369, 529,600 are located in Alaska and 586,586,783 in the states and 'terri tories. These are the figures af forded by the Drovers' Journal in a ate editorial. Certain portions of this large area are well suited for settlement, a good porlion of it is reclaimable either by irrigation or drainage, while other portions of it are inaccessible mountain regions. A large portion of this is that yet unsurveyed in the arctic cold region of Alaska. Of these public lands, exclusive of the military and Indian reservations that may be within their borders, Montana alone has 74,533,143 acres, New Mexico and Arizona 54,720,951 and 54,608.531 acres, respectively, and California has over 50.000,000. Colorado has nearlv 42,000,000, and Nevada something over that number. Wy oming has more public lands than California. JSorth Dakota has about 21,000,000, and Nebraska 10,799, 332 acres unreclaimed. South Dakota has 5,000,000 acres, and Utah and Idaho vacant space rang ing from 34,000,000 to 38,000,000 acres. Minnesota. Oklahoma and Arkansas have at least 5,000,000 each, Florida nearly 3,000,000 and Louisiana over 1,000,000. With the exception of. Oregon, which -has" not so large an unoccupied area as Califoria none of the other has an proximatelv similar vast areas. But most of them have more or less un occupied territorv. Mississippi has 978,418 acres, Michigan 774,232, and Kansas, Missouri Wisconsin and Alabama areas between these figures.

We congratulate Sutherland unon procuring Mr. Frank Carpenter re cently of Hershey as their U. P. agent at that place. Bfi is a gen tleman in every sense of the word accommodating and pleasant in all his business matters as well as at all other times. There are others the people of Hershey had much rather see go than Frank. His wife is a lady of high social standing and we are informed that she makes many friends where ever she goes. We well venture the assertion that Mr. and Mrs. Carpenter are as well' if not better satisfied with their present location than they were with their former one. Richard Brown accompanied by Master Ray Stuart visited relatives in North Platte a few days recently. It is so hot that it is almost im possible for man or beast to work at times. School has closed for this year and the teacher has gone to her home near Wescott, Custer County. Mrs. M. H. Douglas of the Platte has been a guest of Mrs. Brown a part of this week. T. W". Anderson is hauling stone from North Platte for the founda tion of his new house. The people who took in the show Saturday last don't seem inclined to divulge any of the wonders seen or secrets learned. Pat. The greater part of government " -land in central and western Ne braska having been entered, the consolidation of the Grand Island and Broken Bow land districts with l the Lincoln district will probably " take place in the near future. It is f also rumored that the North Platte and McCook districts will be thrown . together, but this change will prob- . .ably not be made in the immediate 'future. When the latter consoli " dation is made it is likely the offices in this city will be retained and those at McCook discontinued. It was expected that the registers and receivers of the Nebraska land offices would be appointed last we'ek, i but the president failed to reach them. It is announced, however," " that these appointments will be made within the next ten days. If Bishop Merrill's authority is good the Methodists of the world will boycott the world's Columbian Exposition because of the Sunday . opening feature. He says the gen veral commission of the denomi- nation will issue a manifesto Thurs day next withdrawing the Metho dist exhibits from the fair within the week, and Asking the 5,000,000 members of the church to keep caway from the White City week days as well as Sundays. The order to be issued, he declares, is noth ing short of a complete boycott of "the exposition. And the Bishop predicts that other christian denom inations will follow the example set by the followers of Wesley, and that the enterprise will suffer finan cially from the detections. Bishop llemll is chairman of the commit ' tee under whose authority the Methodist church exhibits were placed within the fair. The thraat of free trade is heard seldow now. This is well. There has not been the faintest prospect at any time since the election last November for passing of tariff-for revenue-only bill by the congress which meets this year. A few wild democratic papers have been preach ing free trade and a few equally wild republican papers have been calling attention to these vaporiugs and have been holding them up as horrible examples of democratic de signs. So far as this foolish talk has found credence at all it has been damaging. It lias created alarm ana aaaea a new element or disturbance to the business situation But no reasonable being now imag ines that any extended and radica change will be made by the fifty third congress in the tariff. The democrats dare not bring ab'ontanv thing like free trade. Globe Democrat. The cattle markets supplied from the South Dakota ranges may look for increased shipments from lha rut section soon. The annual round up has just started out from Fort Pierre. Nearlv a thousand cattle owners and cowboys comprise the -outfit, and the round up will take -V 1 rV 1 1 1 I I P i 1 in an rue catue country wesc or uie river outside or the iilack Hills range. It is said that stock of al kinds in that region is in especially good condition this year. Heretofore in this country rea panics have been started by busl ness suspensions, but just now bus- mess suspension are caused by an artificial panic. Quite a difference. What was cause in 1873 is purely effect m 1893. As the president has discovered '-that it is the Sherman law which is producing all the mischief, the : 150 democrats majority in congress ought to make short work of it. They have a clear coast: the people will hold the party to a strict ac countability. Republicans have for so many years given them prc9 perity that they will be disposed to make comparisons and will judge . by the results. There will have to be a better substitute for the Slier man bill than a law giving "wild cat banking" free swing or there is trouble ahead for Grover and his -friends. To manv it looks like a step toward the single gold stand- ard, and without doubt that is what many of those who favor it intend it shall be. The single gold stand erd means death to debtors and a reckless scramble for creditors. The people don't want it and they will not have it. Inter Ocean. State Superintendent Goudy is in receipt of a personal letter from one who is perfectly qualified to i'udge as to the comparative excel ence of the Nebraska school exhibit at the world's fair. The writer says that while the display, which is now in place, is not as large as some of the older states, and is not as diversified, 4n point of merit and excellence it compares favorably with any of them and speaks vol umes for the excellence of the schools of Nebraska. . The. recent fire-scorched town of . 'Fargo is not only to be rebuilt, but the municipal government is to be " :xemodeled. Prohibition, which has 'proved itself a blight, is to be dis carded and Jiigh license is to be sub stituted. At a monster public meet-. .jing, heldlast Saturday, which was attended by nearly every citizen in argo; 'resolutions were adopted di recting the mayor and council to issue permits for the sale of liquor on the payment of $1,000 annually. -Bee. Mvrte Leaves . Mrs. D. O, Schrambling returned to her home in JLddyvilIe last Mou dav after spending several weeks with her parents. Quite a few of the people of this place attended the circus at North Platte Saturday. Mrs. Null has a niece from the east visiting her at present. Mr. uraotree is expecting ins daughter home soon. She has been teaching school at Alden, Iowa. Mrs. Elliott has been quite sick of late. Mrs. Banks children, of Gandy, are visiting their grandmother Mrs W. Combs.. A family by the name of Gold are farming on Mr Baley's place We are glad to see vacant claims taken up again. The Myrtle school taught by Miss tombs, will close Friday next Mr. Gambrel transacted business in Gandy Monday. U. G. Wiberg is building an ad dition to his house.

William Winter's little bov, who uas oeen sick ror sometime is re ported convalescent. Henry Brown stopped with his parents a few days recently while on his wa3T from the ranch to Mc- Pherson on business connected with the county commissioners. From 6 to 10 o'clock Saturday aiorning last the roads were lined with teams loaded down with live stock and headed for North Platte to take in the great show. James McKee returned on Friday from a week or ten days trip to his farm near Willard, Nebr. N. p. Spurrier lost four fine thouroughbred sows recently. He paid 15.00 each for them when small pigs. No cause assigned. H. P. Selser of Hershey wants to wap" his new house in said city for a team of horses. We have had considerable wind the past week. The sand from the hills made things gritty in this locality. Remember the annual scuooi meeting at the school house next Monday afternoon at 1 o clock sharp western time. All invited especially the ladies who are more interested in the schools, we think, than the men. G. E. Sullivan took two loads of hay to North Platte Friday to feed Hershey Happenings. Elmer Weir returned home last. week from York, where he had been attending college during the past season. Mrs. Sprague and daughter, of Lodge Pole, visited a few days with her husband, who is employed here for the present. Morris VanTyle, of Gothenburg, was hand shaking with his many friends Sunday. While here he was the guest of H. P. Selser. night Mr. Spear, the who took the place of T penter, shook the dust of off his feet Saturday and operator A. Car- Hershey left for Chicago. Mr. Roberts has taken the position.

The Columbian children's day exercises at the school house Sunday evening were excellent, reflecting great credit on the committee of arrangements. The house was tastefully decorated with bunting, the stars and stripes and beautiful flowers. The programme consisted of songs and recitations which were well rendered. A concert recita tion by ten little girls entitled "Ten Little Sunflowers," was appreciated by all. An essay, "The origin and object of children's day," by Jennie Weir was well written and delivered. '"Three days in the life of Columbus'5 by Willie'Baley very forcibly por trayed the trials and dangers he endured to discover this fair land and the ungratefully reward for all his suffering by placing him in chains. A recitation by Laura Sis son was an excellent one and well delivered. "Burial of Moses" by Jennie Mason was another excellent recitation and one that called forth much praise. Many others were of equal merit and worthy of special mention, but space forbids. J. II. Somerset Snap Shots. The heaviest rain for months fell Wednesday evening and crops, grass etc, are growing very fast. School closed here Friday June, 9 th. An enioyable entertainment was given at night. Children's Day was observed by the Somerset and Ash Grove Sun day schools on June 11th. A pleas ant time is reported. Miss Mary Dixon left for Well fleet Monday for a few days visit before returning home. Mr. Smale made a flying trip to Chicago last week returning with his two -daughters on Saturday evening.

Mrs. Julia Jolliff, and daughter Miss Edith met with quite an acci dent Thursday morning while re turning from George Millers. Their team ran off with them upsetting the buggy and throwing them out. Mrs. Jolliff suffered a severe injury to her sight side, but how bad can not yet be determined. The buggy op. was somewhat broken. 0, 1 O.

Betti ami wiser conclusions prevailed It is remembered that at best, A very small proportion of the people, will, or can, go to Chicago, aid that those thus-deprived should Bptbe cut off from the great object lesson and annual recreative occasion of a state fair. To meet the lemergencv and keep step with the Columbian" year de mands, extraordinary arrangements have been perfected and all efforts are being made to render the Ne braska state fair and exposition to be held at Lincoln, September 8 to 15 next, the grandest entertainment of the kind ever held in the west. In the agricultural product line. the great factor, county collective exnibits, has been thrown open to the world. Kansas. Colorado. Tna. Missouri and Dakota, promise to be represented. Uther apecial attractions will be unusually fine and instructive, The speed ring feature will be larger than ever. The secretary reports that already more entries "are on file than at any fair before, even up to fair week. Six hundred dollars is tho capital prize this year for best county col lective exhibit, with five other atiuor ones, none less than one hundred dollars. The canal across the isthmus of Corinth was opened Saturday by appropriate exercises. The history of the canal is one to appeal pow erful to the imaginttion ot the nis- torical student, savs the jouraw. Begun by the Emperor Nero in the first century of the cnnsuau era work was soon stopped by an up rising in Gaul, and for eighteen hanared years not a stone was turned on-the isthmus to make a pathway for commerce. Ten years ago the work was resumed and now uie canal has-been finished on the lines originally laid out by the Roman engineers. The cost has been 14, 000,000. Ships pass through in an hour and cut off by one day the length of the journey from the western Mediterranean ports to Athens and Constantinople. An eastern . paper reports one "strike" which will meet the ap proval of everybody. In a large shirt factory every girl went out on a strike until the boss should agree "to use no more vulgar or profane language" in their presence. Ballard's Snow Liniment.

If we are not misinformed, the demo cratic editors and statesmen are leading in this demand for justice. Your average democrat, it must be understood, is not opposed to pen sions as pensions. He only wants to see that too many of the men who helped put down the rebellion do. not get them. Journal.

Like a majority of the wonderful gold deposits now reported, the South Pass beds are 150 miles awav trom a rauroaa, ana it will cost an immense amount of deprivation for the prospectors to reach them. An A.I experienced miner savs ot the new discovery: "I have mined and milled for forty years, and I unhes itatingly pronounce the Wyoming mines the richest m gold of any in the United States. There- is gold. enough in these camps to pay the national debt a hundred times over." But it may be well to wait for later returns before making a rush "for the new Eldorado. If there -is fHi much gold as that,"even the late ar rivals will stand a good chance to pick up a fortune . Ex. The fact that the Iowa democrats have decided to make no nomination for senator at their state convention shows that they want Boies to run for the governorship again. His re-election to the governorship, of course, would not stand in the way of his choice for the senate. Boies is undoubtedly the strongest demo crat in Iowa, and if he declines the nomination for governor this year it will be an indication that he thinks democratic chances hopeless.
