Postmasters' League,
The Lincoln county league of
postmasters of fourth class post-
offices held a meeting at the court
house yesterday afternoon. A con
stitution and by-laws were adopted.
It was decided best to hold but two
regular meetings in each year, one
on the second Thursday in Janu
ary and the other on the second
Thursday in July. A copy of the
resolutions passed at the last meet
ing of the league urging the Ne
braska senators aud representatives
to support the Cumming's bill had
been scut to Senators Allen and
Thurston and Representative Ne
ville. Letters were received from
each one acknowledging the receipt
of the resolutions and the senators
promised to Help tne measure
along, congressman Neville evi
dently thought that the resolutions
were meant to apply to the measure
which he recently introduced and
consequently he wrote that he
would file the copy of the resolu
lions as supporting his bill. The
secretary was instructed to write
him that it was the Cumming's bill
they wished passed and not the Ne
ville bill. The league adjourned to
meet tuc second Thursday in
July.

RUSH & MURRAY
Y. M. C. A. Improvements,
Sec'' McDill, of the internation-J
nl Y. M. C, A., has been here for
several days consulting' with the
board of directors and the local
secretary concerning some impove-
mentB in the rooms that are abso
lutely necessary. He has decided
to devote some of the Dillon fund
which is at the disposal of the Y.
M. C. A., to the improvements in
the bath rooms, Three new porce
lain tubs will be added and the
tank will be moved further back in
order to do away with the extra
neat in the summer. These im
provements will be paid out of the
billon fund but funds will be
needed to refurnish the rooms and
the members of the association
and the citizens will be asked to
contribute towards this part of the
expense. This request for contri
butions ought to meet with a
hearty response as the need is a
pressing and vital one. The
christian members of the commun
ity ought to realize that an Insti
tution which is making an elTort
to look after the young men who
are without homes or any particu
lar family tics is worthy of self
denying support. The only way
that the association can ever be
made the power it ought to be is
for those who arc interested in the
moral welfare of the town to give it
their earnest support.

Tho Union Pacific's Back Taxes.
The compilation of the delinquent
laud taxes of the Union Pacific
railroad was completed in the
county treasurer's oilice yesterday.
The total amount of taxes due is
564.271.06, the interest is $13,742.03
and the advertising is $1,424.70
which makes the total amount
which the. road owes upon its taxes,
$79,437.79. The amount which the
road proposed as pnymcnt for this
claim was $37,300.52, less than halt
the amount which is due. The
highest amount of taxes assessed
in one year was in 1896 when they
amounted to $20,288.60. The 1899
tax amountss to $9,700.16. This
indicates that there is some force
in the road's contention that the
assessments have been cxhorbitaiit
but there is a (mention whether
theirs was any more cxhorbitaiit
than that of other property holder
in tuc county who nave uccu com
pelled to pay their taxes in full.
This statement will be turned over
to the county attorney and he will
then decide what steps to take to
tollow out tlie instructions ot the
commissioners to sr.e the company.
