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,

purpose of putting in nomination can

comes from Mr. Frank Bobbins.

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.

Death ot John Goldsworthy.
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.
