The state hoard of transportation has passed a resolution urging the railroads to make a reduction in rales for the ship ment, of grain, owing to the large amount to be marketed and the low price. It is hut right that the railroads should transport the grain at as low a rate as possible for at the ruling prices but a small margain is left for the farm ers. The great, trotting colt Atell, was sold at Tern; Haute, Intl., last week for the enormous sum of one hundred and live thousand dollars. This is the high est price ever paid in the world for a horse of any description. The animal is but three years old and has a record of covering a mile at a trotting gait, of two minutes and twelve seconds, the fastest over made, and it, will probably be some time liefore the record is broken.

Of course the line from Alliance east has been in oiieration for some years and is not new to the travel ing public, but from Alliance to Craw ford it is certainly new to people who till VH traveh-d all over Nebraska. There are a few miles of this road which cost a lortune lo build. The grade is so steep that it was necessary to make a curve inui h resembling a mule shoe and this is followed by a reverse curve making a sort of letter S, after which the tunnel is reac hed. The tunnel is something over TOO feet long and is approached by deep cuts and represents a vast amount of la vor, but the road is completed to Craw ford and regular passenger service was put on Oct. fith, and it is the intention of the management to put ou sleepers in the near future. C K. Huntington is agent for the company at Crawford and he is one of the most pleasant and ac commodating railroad men it has lieen our fort une to meet for a long' time.

We hope they will conclude to locate here for they are gentlemen of the highest respectability and would make good citizens and neighbors. THOSE COTTONWOOD RESOLUTIONS. Those Cottonwood resolutions which were published in the Ihrald two -jveeksl ago were written by a would be ''Mud Ringer," but who now becomes a uirt, dinger because he failed to gel the nom ination for treasurer at the people's con vention. This man is no other than L. ,i .Harmon, who was the secretary of the primary held in Cottonwood precinct which chose the delegates to the peoples convention, and who took an active part in tlie said primary; though he positive ly denied this in the demo-republican pri mary when the question came up as to whether he had taken part in any previ ous primary. In the second clause of his resolutions he says: "We have received injustice at their hands (the people's party) by being deprived of representation which we were justly entitled to." (refering to .'ottonwood precinct.) Why don't you speak the truth How as it comes from .i. i. c ,,,, ! lie:irt and Rav: "1 do uie oi-jiiii j'" hereby condemn the action of the peo ple's convention because they did uot give me the nomination lor uea.sto., which I was justly eiilitleu to, 101 j have been nu energetic, untiring oliice seckcr ever since the county was organ- ,zed." In the fifth article of his resolu tions he says; "Wecomlemutiiem (ine K-'ople's party) for calling secret pnma- tbroutihout the coumy. cuo.., :ru oiiiuarv held in Cotloll- u lie" j.-"j'i- " i ... ood precinct was a secrecr, anan ... which but certain individuals were ai- lowed to participate, you must lulnni that you were one of the chosen few, and that you took part in the said pri imry.

Richards as chairman of the republican stato cen tral committee was a happy tribute to the excellent executive ability displayed by that gentleman during the campaign of 1SS8. Iu that fierce political contest Mr. Richards proved himself master of the situation and marshaled his forces in a manner that proved irresistable to democratic, narlv. Mr. Richards not only has the confidence of the republi cans as a party lender, but he has the highest respect of all for the high traits of character possessed by him, and it is to be hoped that when he shall have closed the second year's labor as chair man of the stale central committee, lie will hear the call of his friends to accept a position more honorable than the one ho is now so ably filling, - - i It is often said to be a good plan to trade, hut the exception to the rule comes in about the time of an election. It does not, pay to trade on candidates. For instance, Hike the ticket put up by the people's convention and endorsed ny tl, sti'iiieiit, republican mass convention. It is composed of men against whom not, one word can be said, lliey are cieau, straight, honest men who will commci the business of the olhces ot the coumy in a manner that will be to tlie best interests of the tax payers of Sioux county.
