To the industrious, energetic home-seeker from
the crowded east North Platte and Lincoln county
presents unusual advantages. Thousands of acres
of vacant government land, In close proximity to
those already being brought under irrigation, may
be obtained by consulting the United States land
office in North PIntte. A letter of inquiry to "IT.
8. Register, North Platte, Neb.," relaUve to the
above will be courteously answered. Irrigated
farming is no longer an experiment, but has
reached the point where it is acknowledged ns
pre-eminently the safest in all seasons method
of conducting agricultural and horticultural oper
ations. The salubrious and life-giving climate of
Lincoln county, where malaria is unknown and
whore pulmonary troubles are unthought of, is
another incentive to the location therein of those
who are anxious to enjoy the good things of this
life as long as possible. North Pint to churches

who is eager to betterhls condition and assisting in
the upbuilding and development of a comparatively

will come up for consideration in
committee of the whole, which is
expected to be some time this week.
:n undergo a careful con
sideration and discussion and its
strength in the house will be tested.
It is perfectly" safe to predict its
passage by that body with a good
majority. In the senate the bill
is tying dormant. Senator Hol
brook's committee which lias it in
charge, will not act on it until the
same measure comes over from the
house, when the house bill will be
substituted for it and then be
pushed through that body.
On Friday Senator Caldwell in
troduced a bill to establish a uni
form rate per mile on freight and to
prohibit rebates on freight. It
provides that railroads operating
in. Nebraska, whether owned or
leased, shall charge the same rate
per mile per hundred pounds, ton
or car load on jreignt ot the same
class, and any road charging any
person a greater rate than
charged to any other person per
mile shall forfeit to the consignee
one half of the regular rates there
on. According to this mil no
special contract or rebate shall be
iriven for the purpose of violating
the provisions of the act. Violation
is made a mis&imeanor, punishable
by a fine of not less than $50 nor
more than S100 for each offense, but
the act shall not affect rates or con
tracts made tor treight rates in
case or cnantv. sickiicss or acci

Senate file No. 259, by Watson.
has now been advanced to the
head of the general file, reconi
mended for passage and ordered to
a third reading. It is known as the
Holt county bill and will enable the
state to transfer the cases again
the alleged lynchers of Barrett
Scott from Holt countv to some
other county. It provides that al
criminal cases shall be tried in the
county where the offense was com
mitted, unless it shall appear to
the court on affidavits that
fair and impartial trial cannot be
had therein; in such case the court
may direct the aecttsed to be tried
in some other county upon applica

Washington. Feb. 18. Tho senate
was a center of interest today, as a re
suit of the warm discussion of the fuian
cial question and the personal criticisms
of the president on Saturday. Mr. Vilas
(Dem., Wis.) had a roU of manuscript
and a pilo of books before him, ready to
take un the financial debate where it
was left off at the previous session.
Mr. Stewart (Rep.. Nev.) was the first
to continue the criticisms of the bond
contract. His resolution was called up,
declaring that the government had no
legal authority to bny gold coin in
preference to silver coin for auy cause
whatever. Mr. Stewart spoke of the
humiliating position of the United States
in being held up by the throat by a gold
commission, which had the power to
"coerce and squeeze" the country up to
next October, when the contract expires.
Mr. Gray (Dem., Del.), who is recog
nized as close to the administration,
then took the floor. He expressed sur
prise that the senators from Massachu
setts (Lodge) and Colorado (Wolcott)
had so far gone out of their way to in
dulge in a violent assault upon the ex
ecutive. The president had performed
a duty incumbent on him by law. That
law was su2h that auy evasion of it
would have been a plain dereliction of
duty.
Mr. Gray forcibly urged tho gravity
of thecondition.which compelled speedy
action and an appeal- to those who had
gold.
Senator Gray stated that had it not
been for the bond contract the United
States might have gone to a silver basis
in 24 hours.
Tho committee on appropriations re
ported an amendment to tho sundry
civil appropriation bill for $100,000,000
of certificates of indebteduess of denom
inations of 20 to run for two years and
draw 3 per cent interest, and to bo good
only for the purpose of supplying the
treasury deficiency.

San Francisco, Fob. 18. The tug
Sea King came into port with the Ocean

schooner was an object of much inter
est as it lav resting on its beam ends on
a mud bank off the end of the sea wall.
It was just turning ebbtide when tho
derelict was shoved upon tho bank.
There her masts were underwater, with
only tho points of them showing above
the waves. It is thought that the bodies
of some of the sailors will be found in
the cabin, as it is believed that the
schooner suddenly capsized in a squall,
winch struck the vessel without any
warning. Somo of the friends of the
men have hones that the crew of the
schooner have been rescued.
In the House.
Washington, Feb. 18. This was sus
pension day in the liouso today. Under
the rule, if a second reading was or
dered, any bill could bo placed upon its
passage after o0 minutes' debate. A
bill was passed granting to the state of
Alabama for public use the Mount Ver
non barracks military reservation. Tho
speaker then recognized Mr. Mallory
(Dem., Fla.) to move the passage of tho
bill to promote the efficiency of the rev
enue cutter service, under suspension of
the rales.
The revenue cutter service bill was
defeated, failing to secure tho necessary
two-thirds vote.
The house passed a bill to raise the
rate of pension to Mexican war veterans
to 12 a month, and also the bill to
equalize the duties and salaries of in
spectors of boilers.
Dr. Senner. Confirmation Uncertain.
Washington, Feb. IS. The friends
of Dr. Seuuer, who has been nominated
for commissioner of immigration at New
York, are becoming somewhat uneasy
over the prospects of his confirmation.
The nomination was sent in on tho 14th
of January. The complaints take tho
shape of criticisms rather than of
charges, and are based, for the mot
part, on tho fact that Dr. Senner is not
a native of the United States and has
been naturalized only eight or nine
years.
Cholera In Argentine.
Washington, Feb. 18: The presence
of cholera in Argentine has been form
ally recognized by the Argentine gov
ernment according to United States
Consul Baker at Buenos Ayres, who has
reported the fact to the statu depart
ment, adding that he believes that the
disease is really the usual cholera
mobus, which appears every year.
La Ilourgogne Arrives.
New York, Feb. IS. The French lino
steamer La Bonrgogne, from Havre,
Feb. 1), was due here yesterday morning.
She had not been .sighted up to v.lio a.
m., but there is no anxiety in conso-
quence of her nonappearance. When
sho left Havre the La Gaseogno was then
nearly a week overdue here, and tho
probability is that Captain Gelfray, of
the La Bourgogne, was instructed to
keen a trooa watch lor the missimr
steamship. This Rung the case, he
would, no doubt, tak a zigzag course
in the hope of overtaking the La Gas-
cocue. and thus consume extra time in
reaching port.
The La Bonrgogne has arrived.
Minneapolis, Feb. 18. Tho state
sprang a surprise in tho Hayward mur
der trial today when it withdrew all op
position to the introduction of Maggie
Wachter's testimony. Miss Wachter is
the stenographer of BUxt's attorney.
who was to testifv that Blixt had stated
to his attorney in her presence that it
wiiH with Adry Hayward and uot with
Harry that he had conspired to murder
Miss Giug. The court had hold that it
was a communication between client
and attorney, and was, therefore, inad
missible. Tho court was unwilling to admit tho
testimony without the consent of Blixt
and-.the murderer was brought from the
jail and questioned personally by Judge
Smith. He had no objection, ho said,
and Miss Wachter was called. It then
developed that she w:is ill and could not
be present today. The sudden change
of front on the part of the state is said
to bo due to its ability to impeach Miss
Wachter's evidence absolutely. Blixt's
attorney will go on the stand and con
tradict it, and it is also understood that
the state has ascertained from a con
fidant of 3Iiss Wachter the truo inward
ness of the evidence.
Thomas Waterman was called to tes
tify as to Harry Hayward's movements
on Dec. 3, the day of the murder. Ho
contradicted Adry Hayward in several
important particulars as to time. Three
boarders at Harry Hayward's boarding
place testified that he was in tho dining
room as late as 7:10 that evening, which
brings it dangerously closo to the time
when Liveryman Wilson claims to have
seen him (hive with Miss Ging half a
mile awav. The defense expects to es
tablish a complete alibi for the defend
ant from 1 until 10:30 p. m., the day of
the murder.

London, Feb. 18. Tho British steamer
Ganges, Captain Roberts, which sailed
from New Orleans Jan. 6 for Havre, ar

that the peace envoys appointed by tho
two countries meet at Port Arthur or
some place near Tien Tsin in order to
suit the convenience of Li Hung Chtuig,
one of the Chinese envoys. The Chineso
government has requested Mr. John W.
Foster, who was selected to assist the
Chinese envoys in the peace negotia
tions, to meet Li Hung Chang at Tien

hai, will probably leave there for Tien

Philadelphia Tolicc Fail to Find
Ycrke's Murderer.
Philadeu'Hia, Feb. 18. Up to noon
nothing had been heard of Actor J. B.
Gentry, who last night murdered Miss
Madge Yorke at Zeiss' hotel. The po
lice of this city are guarding every depot
in the city closely and if the murderer
has not- already made his escape from
town, it will be almost impossible for
him to do so. Dotective Geyer is of tho
opinion that Gentry caught the JO
o'clock train on the Pennsylvania road
for New York last night. The revolver
with which the murder was committed
was found today in a snow bank at
Eighth and Locust, which is but half a
block from tho hotel where the crime
was committed. Three chambers were
empty, showing that Gentry had fired
three shots at tho unfortuuate actress.
only onn of which took effect. Two
bullets went wide of their mark and
were lonnu ouneci in tne wiui. auq
third struck Miss Yorke in the center of
the forehead and passed through her
head, coming out just back of her right
ear. Miss Clark, who was a close friend
of the dead actress, and who was in tho
room at the time of the shooting, can
give no reason for the murder, as she
had never heard of any quarrel between
tho lovers.
