The estimated cost of exposition buildings, is $550,GOo. It is paid tii at the sum total ot cost of Kxpois lion buildings of every kind, includ ing those of different states and of concesaionairies, will approxiori le ♦ i.OOO’OOU. The contract for grading the lakes and lagoons of tliu Trans Mississ ippi Exposition has been let und the work will be pushed, the contract re quiring that the woik shall be finish ed not later than June 25. About 80,000 cubic yards will be moved. Estimates already submitted fix the probable cost of putting the Ex position grounds in shape for ail purposes at $500,ObO. The fence mifi<*I<iminit tliM iirntiruiM- neurlv com plated, will he about five miles in extent. Nearly #1,000,000 is in sight, from all sources, for the Exposition. This sum is being constantly added to and it is expected will lie more than double by tbe end of 1897. The railroads in this territory have already subscribed $70,000 for the Exposition. Other railrord subscrip tions will double this urnount. The legislature appropriation •will be available early in July, by which time it is expected the plans for the state building will he com pleted. The government appropriation of (200,000 will be available within ten days. The supervising architect has promised to expedite the plans of the building. Exhibits of peculiar interests to women will he put in charge of tbe managers of the Women’s depart ment. Preliminary plans us submitted by the architects give warrant for the prediction that the architecture of the Trans-Mississippi Exposition will be second only to that of the World’s Fair. The colonnades will be in brilliant colors. It is to be a Pompeiian, rather than a white city. Most of the buildings will be con BirilUlVU IL1IH )VUI. The wealth, resources and advant ages of every county in Nebraska will be fully set forth in the State exhibits, compared with which all former exhibits will be dwarfed into iusigniStauce. The state commis sioners, appointed by the governor, will be charged with this work. For 'those positions most active competi tion is being made by prominent men all over the state. Kditor Brown, of the Times Inde pendent accused us lust week of try. ing to misslead our readers because we referred to the fact that the thir teen election boards of the county and the canvassing borad, aecording to the tiudiegs of the late lnmeuted legislature, hud been found guilty of not counting, and reporting 210 bal lots that were cast in Sherman county in favor of uuiiuendiuent propositions. Urowu, evidently, does not like to venture the legislature for its piece <uf foolishness In heapiug up the ex pense on the tax payers by taking up six weeks of its time in the re count business, aud so h« wishes to dodge the •juestiou by heaping up abuse on his contemporary. Better corns out like a man aud tell your readers what you think of that re conut job. Talk about the Nauru was raws try lug to intsalead its reader* Why, bisea your soul, we could bring up a string of witnesses that would reach from yuwr wfflieli> tha court house s*iuate who he* heard you any that you was a pop for what ui>'ii>'i there n In it, winch fact I'ueiie. •** all fair winded men that you nr* howling pop taw for • hat there te tn if ttf eowrse a sheet that represents bdiera instead of principal te not uttesleading, and of court* a wan that will pnhtwh *uel> a sheet n a il subject to to see others of wtea lending “A Swindle” is tbe name that ap peprs over the office door of a strug gling lawyer in the city of Stratford, Ont. A friend of the unfortunate gentleman suggested the advisability of bis writing out bis first name in f ull, tbinkiug that Aurthur or Andrew Swindle, as tbe ease might be, would sound better and be bettei than the significant “A. Swindle.’’ When the lawyer, with tears in his eyes, whispered to him that his name was Adam, the friend understood and was silent.—Wiaeonsin Blade. According to a new bill which be came a law with the emergency clause a few days ago assessors must make a lot of inquiry of each indi vidual about his occupation and several other subjects that are new to assessors. Now it happens that the assessor go to work here on April 1 and many of them are well over their territory. If they are to get this new information they will have to go over the territory a second time. This would entail a heavy ex pense on the county. Then again the assessors' books have no blanks for reeordlng the required informs tion. Under existing circumstances it would seem impracticable for the law to be enforced this year.—Wccqi ing Water Republican. CUCAK CKKKH SKWS. The small grain m this neighborhood is all sown and we are now looking for refreshing showers. Several famlies are atllfcted with measles and others are expecting them soon. Mr. Heslop 1» very sick at the present writing. Henry Beck proved up on his claim last Tuesday. This is the time of year for people to be poor as the assessor is making his annual visit.

Every Tuesday evening, a tourist sleeping car for Salt Lake City, San Francisco and Los Angles leaves Omaha and Lincoln via the Burlington Route. It is carpeted; upholstered in rattan; has spring seats and backs aud is pro vided with curtains, bedding, towels, soap ets. An experienced excursion conductor and a uniformed I'uiiman porter accompany it through to the Pacific coast While neither as expensively finished nor as line to look at as a sleeper, it is just as good to ride in. Second class tickets are honored and the price of a berth, wide enough aud big enough for two, is very reasonable, For further information see A F Wbkts, B A M Agent.
