Cody Offm Relici to City.
Colonel Cody, with his accustomed
genorosity, will tender to the city of
North Platto as a necleusfor a museum,
his entire collection of Indian relics,
which is one of the finest in 'tho west,
part of which is stored at Cody, Wvo.,
and part at tho Scout's Rest ranch.
Not only will the gift Include these
Indian relics, but also many articles
which the Colonel collected during his
trips abroad Located in what, was
once tho great hunting ground of tho
Sinnx and othor Indian tribes, it is nar-
tlcularly fitting that North Platto
should have a museum of Indian relics.
It is probable that with the Cody col
lection to start with, many donations
would be made by pioneers of tho west
who have relics in their possession
Mounted buffalo, elk and deer could
also be obtained, and wo believe that
within a few years North Platto would
haye a collection of relics of tho pioneer
days that would surpass any to be
found in tho country, and one that
would bo become more valunble nB the
years pass.
Whore Colonel Cody's proposed gift
shall be stored, is a quostlon that is
up to tho people for solution. It may
bo possible than an arinex to tho south
might be built to tho public library by
a vacation of tho alley this, howeyor,
is only a suggestion, it may not be
worthy of much consideration. Tho
matter however, should be taken up at
once by our citizens.

North Platte to Kansas City.
The Tribuno is creditably informed
that when the Gibbon-Hastings cut-off
is placed in service a solid passenger
train will run from North Platto to
Kansas City, and that the train crew
will run through to that city. The
engine crew district will be from North
Platto to Hastings. It is also probable
that solid Kansas City freight train's
will be made up at North Platto; in
othor words theio will be a North
Platte-Kassas City passongar district,
and a North Platte-Hastings freight
district. The opening of the Gibbon
cut-off will largely increase business in
and out of North Platte, ns much west
ern traffic now routed via Denver to
Kansas City will come through North
Platte and over the Gibbon line.
Bazaar and Supper.
The Rcbekahs will hold a bazaar and
supper nt the Odd Fellows' hall noxt

Notice to Ditch Owners.
To all ditch owners taking water
of the Worth Platte river:
I desiro to call your attention to the
fact that if any of the ditches which
have not yet consummated contracts
with the United States government for
water out of the Pathfinder Reservoir
in times of scarcity of water in the
North Platte river, dint they must
make their applications within a short
time or it will be forever too late. This
is a matter of immense importance to
te irrigation interests along tho North
Platto river. The secretary has com
municated with the secretary of the
interior at Washington, D. C., in re
gard to the extension of time for pur
chase of reservoir water from the
Pathfinder Reservoir in pursuance of
the resolution adopted by the Nebraska
State Irrigation Association, Oct. 24,
1912, asking for an extension
if time for a; period of one
yetlr from January 1, 1913. In,, a
letter from the secretary under date-of
December G, 1912, the secretary sayp:
"It is presumed that tho association
represents the corporations or individ
ual's referred to, but this does not
clearly appear, nor the more important
fact whether these persons in consider
ation of such extension will obligate
themselves to take prompt action. It
would seem therefore, that it is unwise
to make any general agreement which
may prevent tho consumntion of plans
tor the use ot the stored water by
those who may be prepared to do so
and to tie un tho use ot tho water al
ready stored at largo expense by ,the
government. Each association or in
dividual who may desire to obtain this
water should immediately nresent a
statement or proposition indicating
clearly ndefinito date when they or he
will be prepared to discuss details, sso
that those who are now on tho point of
concluding arrangements will not bc;in
terferred with. In other words,' the
time hos now arrived when each ap
plication for stored water should be
dealt with on its merits." ' '
If any ditch owners whether irriga
tion districts or individuals expect to
contract with tho government for water
out, of the Pathfinder Resprvior, please
communicate with the undersigned
immediately so that application blanks
can be obtained and filled out nnd sent
to the secretary of the interior.
Respectfully submitted,
" J. G. Beeleu,
President, Nebraska State Irrigation
Association. -

of purchasing a lot in Cody nddition.
Pay $10 down, and 5 per month and by
March 1st, you will only have $25 or
$30 in the lot, and it is certainly a very
conservative figure, to say tho lot will
be worth more than what you paid for
it at that time. Phone Temple to show

The claim of Omaha scribes that
Omaha high school is winner of the
state inter-scholastic football champion
ship of 1912 is stoutly contradicted by
North Platto, which piled up an un
broken string of victories during the
recent gridiron campaign and won
most of its games by overwhelming
scores. The North Platte chaps are
asking whether or not their nock of
thewoods is a part of Nebraska and if
Omaha la tho entire commonwealth.
Buttheroisno occasion for a fussi If
North Platte were to challenge the
Omaha lads for a post-season game on
a neutral gridiron, as, for instance, the
state university field, surely Omaha
would not dodge the iiaue. v.
