The Prospects.
The editor of Tin: Joi iism. arrived
nome last Monday from I
eastern part of the stale.
alist-nre he made it his stiecial business
peopU- of the fr.-e land, free fuel,
to te
line climate, good soil and pure water to
lie found in Sioux count v and also of the
cheap himlierand coal obtainable in this
section of the country.
The fact that there is still over eight
hundred thousand acres of government
land in Sioux county yet oien to home
stead was a surprise to many, hut those
who have no land and have been paying
the high rents asked by land ow ners are
taking much interest in the matter and
scening all tlie information tliey can
with a view to coming here to get a
home. The advantages in the cheapness
of fuel, luinlier, etc., are at once recog-
niwd by those who know of the high
price of such things in the eastern part
of the state in the early days of settle
ment and all know that cheiip fuel and
lumber are two great advantages in any
locality.
Another thing which is attracting a
good deal of attention is the fact that
tome cheap deeded land can be had in
Sioux county and a number contemplate
coining hero to purchase land and im
prove it and thus make a valuable piece
of projierty out of it. They have seen
the development of the east part of the
state and have seen land advance from
no market value to from fc.r to "i0 per
ac'-e and they are sitisficd that the same
will prove true of northwest Nebraska
as soon as the government land is taken
up.

In the south part of the state a piece
of land which would not sell for forty
cents per acre a few years ago, sold a
few weeks since for $17.50 and there
were no improvements on it except that
a fence surrounded it, and land which
only a few years ago was passed in scorn
by the settlers is now selling at $2" per
aero with an excellent prosjiect of going
still higher. From what could be
learned it is likely that from fifty to one
hundred families will come from Seward

Mrs. Harrison could not have left a
more loving memento to the women of
America than the work she did for them

an orchid raised in the White House. It
lovingly dedicated to the mothers,
wives, and daughters of America; and
