The Missouri Pacific Honda In Otoe Will
He Fought.
The Missouri Pacific bonds, voted
hero a few years ago, were sold for
cash and ttas money used to buy right
of way by private individuals which
right of way was turned over to the
Missouri Pacific. Is is now claimed
that these bonds are of no value and
should not be paid, and a case from
Otoe county now in tho supreme court
will probably settle the matter. A
correspondent in the Nebraska City
Press 6ays.
In tho supreme court on Tuesday the
case of J. Sterling Morton and others
against the county commissioners of
Otoe county was argued and submit
ted. This is the action brought in
the district court of this county some
time ago by tho plaintiffs to enjoin the
collection of the tax levied to pay the
principal and iuterestof the Missouri
Pacific railway bonds, upon which a
hearing was had before Judge Chap
man, who refused to grant tho injunc
tion and the application dismissed for
want of equity.
. From that finding of tho court the
case was taken to the supreme court
and it is contended thero that the
bonds aro void, whoever may own
them, because they were not issued in
aid of works of internal improvement,
but to reimburse private citizens for
monies expended and obligations as
sumed for the benefit of a private cor
poration, and because furtber. the
bonds were voted and issued by a pre
cinct Dot organized legally.
"In reply thereto the county com
missioners contend that the bonds
show on their face the purpose for
which they were issued, and after
allowing the same to be hypothecated
and pass into the hands of innocent
purchasers, and paying interest there
on for ten years, the plaintiff should
not be permitted to maintain that the
same are illegal and void that in com
pliance with the law then in force the
bonds were legally voted by the citi
zens of Nebraska City precinct and
issued for the purposes intended, and
that Nebraska City precinct was or
ganized according to law. An early
decision is anticipated in the matter
n tho supreme court. It is believed
by your correspondent that the deci
sion of Juage Chapman will be re
versed."
Dangers of the Orip
The ereatest danger from La
Grippe is of its resulting in pneumonia.
If reasonable care is used, however.
and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
taken, all danger will be avoided.
Among the tens of thousands who
have used this remedy for L;i Grippe,
we have yet to learn of a single case
having resulted in pneumonia, which
shows conclusively that this remedy is
a certain preventive of that dread
disease. It will effect a permanent
euro in less time than any other
treatment. The 2-3 and- L(i cent sizes

A. T. Wood Appointed.
Louisvillk, Ky., March 3. A. T.
Wood of Mount Sterling will succeed
J. S. C. Blackburn in tho United
States senate by appointment of Gov
ernor Bradley, to be announced prob
ably tomorrow. Tho appointment
was decided upon after the governor
had offered tho honor to St. John
Boyle of this city, who refused it.
Boyle was the republican caucus nomi
nee at the last session of the legisla
ture and his action indicates that he
hopes to bo elected to serve the full
term by the special session of too
legislature, which Governor Bradley
will call within a few days.

Find Monkey Wrench In a Tree.
Decatur, Neb., March 3. There
was recently cut down on one of the
town, lots of Mr. James Ashley, a
wealthy land owner of this place, a
very large cottonwood tree, measur
ing at tho butt five feet through. It
was cut up into stove wood lengths,
and in the center of the butt was
found a well preserved monkey
wrench. The tree is forty years old,
if a day.
Mr. Canfield, cashier of the City
bank, unravels the strange mystery.
Ilo is a pioneer settler of this place
and was one of three men who could
claim tho honor of being the proud
possessor of a complete kit of carpen
tor tools. A Mr. Thompson built i
house on this lot, and shortly after its
completion Mr. Canfield and his
famiiv moved in. To the left of the
house were some switches miniature
cottonwooJ trees. His only little girl
borrowed the tool one day and in the
evening it was missing. A search
was instituted, but tho monkey
wrench was never seen afterward.
The supposition is the little girl hung
the wrench in the crotch of one of
these trees and it grow there.

Crawford's pickles at Zuckweiler &
