A bill baa been iatroduced in congress
far a re-apportionment under
the eleventh census. It provides
far six uingwawmin from Nebraska. Tbe
Isalalaiiiis will likely be called upon to
darkle tbe state into sis districts. In this
the cowTonience of tbe people should be
Italy coesadered. Tbe state is occupied
by three great railroads which cross from
swat to west and tbe districts should be
to arranged that they will extend along
. inch lines. in tbe various districts, other
wise it. will work a hardship on the peo
ple, oapociallT in the west part of toe
state where there are no roads running
Bortaaad south.
The contest on the governor and other
state officers is grinding away. Testi
soar has thus tar been in relation to the
election m Omaha. One witness si
thai Bovd came to tbe roll in his
rings, got oat of his vehicle and beat a

V tbe coming legislature does not
an election law which will put a stop to
any each methods aa seem to "have been
assented in Omaha on November 4tb, it
Mil fall far short of having done its du
ty. A free ballot and an honest count is
far more important than even a reduc
won of railroad and interest rates. Let
the An tralian ballot system be adopted,
Wall rn sans the official seal should be
fsneM od the outside of the ballot.
The Baebville Standard calls attention
to the fact of tbe hardship worked upon
farmers of that locality by the high rates
ex in ileal cnargea ana cues bcbsb wncre
a fsi assi borrowed $3,000 to invest in
cattle and ia three months the interest

maa as bar rates of interest and all tbe
wary laws which can be enacted will

tbsce awl roes to a bank and rata money
U a high rate of interest, be expects to
pay it aod few men are going to kick
about it afterwards. We are informed
that ia a neiirhboring town money ia

Moo it in for some way to be devised
whereby mousy will b more plentiful.
In the last issue of the Jferofc, the ed
iter sate trimaelf up as a judge and pas
tas upon the ballots used at tbe election
OB) which Conlsy'a name was written,
and decides that they are illegal, and
Botee the fact that they were gotten up
by Coaler and ms friends and that tbe
editor of TU Jocks al printed tbem. If
they were Ulaoml why does not tbe gang
of which the iJcraHL is the mouth-piece
broossd to prosecute those who got up

'aame line that the howling baa been done
hi the past To a strioger who baa read
the coitions of the Herald the idea
would be conveyed that Cooley, Barker,
Beidy, Urove, Green, the editor of TBI
'toon!, and few others, were veritable
flesids incarnate, having cloven hoofs,
,honsi and tail, who were guilty of all
the crimes ia the calendar. But tbe

knows that none of the charges made can

There is still a large amount of GOVE&XMEJfT LAND open to entry in
Map of the
Sioux County, Nebraska.
Sioux county is in the northwest corner of the great state of Nebraska, and is
about thirty miles east and west by seventy miles north and south. It comprise
rich valley, fine rolling table land and valuable timber land. The county contains
1,800,000 acres of land. Something near one-third of this area lias been Hied on by
settlers, a large number of whom have mada final proof and have deeiled farms.
The remainder is still open to settlement. Of course there is a portion of this
that is not suitable for farming purposes, a part being timber land and is there
fore valuable, and other tracts, too rough for cultivation, produce tle most nutri
tious of grasses and are excellent for stock raising purposes.
This locality lias an advantage which no other portion of Nebraska possessed,
Fuel, Posts and House Logs are FREE!
This, alone; makes it possible for a mnn to improve a piece of land With
much smaller outlay of cash than be could have done in other parts of the state.
