A mutual drainage district was ors
ganized at Auburn last Saturday, corns
posing all tho owners of land on tho
Nemaha bottom from Auburn to tho
mouth of tho Nemaha river. Each
owner signed an agreement to pay one
dollar per aero for the purpose of
straightening the river. It is estima
ted that this will make about $u por
rod of ditch to bo cut. The following
committee was appointed to oversee
T. J. Crummol, Ben T. Skeen and
Harry Hoover.
Work Is to begin Immediately all
along the river with the expectation of
haying it completed before tho ground
freer.es.
The water in following the channel
of the stream lias to now Rome sixty
three miles from Auburn to its mouth

river in twelvo hours or less. The as
Bossmont of ono dollar per acre will
raise S050 per mile and this amount
will cut off all tho long bends in tho
river. Tho farmers along the rivor
will do much of tho work to bo dono
on their respective farms. A shallow
channel will bo cut in many places and
left for the high water wuen it comes
to finish.

compassing my dofeat by tholr efforts
to manipulato conventions. I did not
ask for nor look for n nomination from
either convention, for whllo thoro wero
many to compllmont mo on my courso

thero were several who would sacrlfico
anything rather than boo mo eleoted.

trary to my oath for party sake, I know

almost tearful vail of a number who
feared that my candidacy might hurt
tho party and allowed tho matter to
go dofaut. I havo regrets over the
fuct that another campaign nnd
another leglative session are likoly
to be spent in chewing tho dirty party
rags of tho paat, und that I will not bo
in the position to help wrongs by
enacting and nmending laws in juitice
to the weole people, and to be one to
stand in the way of those who holp
