Ed. and Pnb. Some of Broken Bow's capitalists are now at work trying to finance a railroad from Loup City through Broken Bow. Georgetown and to con nect with the Union Pacific some where in Wyoming. Five years hence may see the undertaking accom plished.—Arcadia Champion. Only a few more pay days for the I members in the present legislative! session and then the wise solons! will dig fast to get home. There is] no good reason why they could not] get through tills week, if it were not ] for the few everlasting talking ma- ] chines each legislature is sure to be : bored with. There will be a citizens' primary at the hose house. Friday afternoon, March 22. at 2 o'clock p. m., for the purpose of putting in nomination can didates for town trustees as follows: Two for two years and one for one year. The call is signed by the clerk. Fisher, and the request for publication comes from Mr. Frank Bobbins. j' —■■■■■! I ■■ Clark Perkins of the St. Paul Republican has taken editorial con trol of the Aurora Republican. Clark is one of the brightest young republi can editors in the state and will un doubtedly give the readers of the Republican their monev's worth and then some. He still retains his in terest in tiie St. Paul Republican. The people are getting their pay from the big railroad corporation's and with compound interest for giv ing them land, bonuses, bonds, and in i fact building the roads, by the action of these corporations in their efforts l in tiie past and present to avoid their j just proportion of taxation and in their excessive charges for transpor tation of freight and humanity. Every country printer in the state, i whose senatorial representative in the i legislature voted against the change j in tiie tiallot law, should inform its! readers that such senator was helping | save to the big printers of the state! i graft oi several hundreds of dollars ; yearly and a consequent useless ex pense of nearly a thousand dollars bv : keeping the ballot in the nonsensical single column shape. Only one of the platform pledges of the republican party had been enact ed into law up to the beginning of this week, and fifty of the legislative i pay days passed. At that rate it would keep the members in Lincoln t till Christmas to keep the partv pledges and then perhaps have to kill Hamer of Buffalo. Wilson of Custer! and a few' other of the seeming rail road tools in order to get through by that time and make good. Poor old Omaha is alwavs in it when it comes to trouble. The latest is horrid tales of desecration of one of; their cemeteries, where it is claimed 1 the managers re-sell lots al-eady sold.! removing the bodies, making room for ; new dead, and throwing the bones of > former bodies in piles and burning the coffins, etc. Investigations are ordered. Those fellows, if reports are true should be given a little fore taste of hell here on eartli as a re minder of what they will get here after. with compound interest. The attorney general has decided that any charge by a railroad com pany in excess of a 2-eent fare between points in Nebraska is unlawful, even if the intermediate line is not wholly within the state. For instance, be tween Lexington and Sidney the U. P. crosses a corner of Colorado, and the versatile, non-advertising, road tried to make a fare of 3 cents per mile because of that tact. Per haps the corporation needed the dif ference to assist in pure hating more baby carts for its branch roads. During the present stssion. the house passed a bill offered by Rep resentative E. A. Brown, legalizing the printing of the ballots in two columns, but we see by Thursday's dailies that the senate killed the bill. There are but lew papers io the state that can print the ballots in one long column, hence have to print in two columns and then cut and paste, making an aggregate cost of several hundreds of dollars to the state on certain years. But some wise senator, we think it was one of t he Omaha men. that being one of the towns that can print the ballots in one column, fought the change in the form and killed the bill. The Omaha printers •ould afford to pay that senator handsomely for saving to them a pretty little graft. Rockville Items. Harry Mumey is laid up with la grippe this week. Mrs. Geo.

On last Thursday evening in this city occurred the death of Mr. John Goldsworthy, father of Mrs. E. A. Brown, at the age of 66 years, 8 months and 26 days, from a compli cation of bronchitis and la grippe. He had been ill for only a few days, and his death came suddenly and almost without warning, but withal with scarcely a struggle and passed peacefully away, the family in an ad joining room not knowing when the death angel came with the summons, although only a few minutes previous he had talked with them and had gone to his room to rest. He leaves one son, who is in California, and five daughters. Mrs. E. A. Brown..Mrs. N. T. Iiaddow. Mrs. B. W. Parkhurst, Mrs. Annie Mav all of this eitv. and Mrs. A. C. Throckmorton of Greeley county, all the daughters iieing pres ent at the last sad rites, the son being too far away to come. Just three years ago to' the day and hour, the wife of deceased passed away, an un usual incident. Mr. Goldsworthy was born jn South Wales J une 111.' 1840. He early in life engaged in mining in that country and nearly all his active life was so engaged. He was married to Miss Eliza Daddow at Pontsbury. Eng., on the 12th of August. 1867. To them were born five girls and two sons, one of the latter dying at the age of two years. With his wife and one baby girl, now Mrs. E. A. Brown, he came to this country in 18651, settling in ttie copper mining districts of Wisconsin and Michigan, returning to Wales three years later, but re turning to this country again in 1885 and locating in Sherman county. Later they moved to Colorado, where he engaged in gold mining for a few years, and again returning to Sherman county to end their days. He was a man of few words, quiet and un assuming. and made friends of all those with whom he came in contact. The funeral was held at the M. E. church Sunday morning, a very large attendance present and the body was taken to the Verdurette cemetery for burial. Along R. R.No 1 rriios. Parsley shelled corn yesterday.
