I'KOOKKHH OP THE EXPOSITION.
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

readers what you think of that re

“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.

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,
