Kit ami Bull Good Railroad Dope > ui few months since, llie North western made comment on railroad miters in connection witli Loup it), wliicii some of the friends were iriciined to look upon as more or less lint air. At tliat time we spoke of iie possihilit) of the extension of noth the B. 4 M. and V. 1*. roads further west, giving us a good outlet u> the coast, daily trains, including Sundays, a possible location of a illusion at this point, and otlier pointers, the whole lieing based on good ground. At that time, Hon. F rank < urrie of Sargent, was in Bos toll, understood ui lie tliere for the purpi'se of placing bonds for the uilding of a -hurt line from Loup 1 ity to Broken Bow, which in case of its tielng built would betaken over by the f rilon Pacitic to give them an outlet from Loup City west. Also at that time a corps of surveyors and engineers for tlie B. A: M. were going over tlie ground between Loup City aiid < airo. making resurveys of the oi • and go«l grounds were liad for • -unwise tiiat in event of tlie ex ■•ii'ioii of the Union Pacitic, tlie li rlington was ready to build from i u. up tlie valley to Loup City to niiect with their road at this place, : . ii.v n to Sargent, whence they would build over to Dunning, inak :n. ! his their mainline and heavy i '.it- route, saving tiie steep grades • ’ w. fii i airo and Iiunning on their t ■-« nt line. That this was not hot «i I b proved in the not very ..-nit future. By tlie Omaha dailies of Sunday we see tiiat tlie Nebraska ■ • ntral s Western, a new proposed re from Broken Bow to Arnold, advertised for graders to start construction of the proposed line <d» I- assured will liegin within days Th. se • next" to what tiiat means, have good evidence tiiat with the construction of that short line, an extension will be made from Broken Bow to Loup City, if indeed " Is not done earlier, giving tlie l'. P. ’tie desired outlet west, which also means vvitlio.it doubt tlie proposed fut-otls of tlie B Jk M. bringing tlie main line to our very doors. Not nly this, but tliere is no reasonable doubt tiiat in event of unr getting •he main line LoupCity will lie made ■he division point lietween Lincoln and Alliance, as tlie distance between tlie two points 1- just right and tliere is no lietter location in tiie state, witii finer grounds titan Loup City •ail produce We still are not at • it•city to give full reasons for tlie faith within us. but should we give rtim facts and pointers in our pos sssiun we feel assured tiie most skeptical would with us claim tiiat within the next two years, at the ■ ■ •side. Loup City will be on the uaiti line of the B. A: m. Black Hills j •te and tiiat the Union Pacitic will) be i inning trains further west. Now a'l it hot air if you please, hut don’t forget tlie prophecy. Political Pot Puttering Some two weeks since, the Times ’••led its readers the information.

We will ; v hnit tiiat so far we have not heard f jKis-itile republican candidates for hose offices, hut are not willing to i- opt the I imes' prophecy of no pposition. However, we are able • his wei k to add a little political in formation which will tend to cause the pel to get action looking toward tie- boiling point. We have assur iii. is from tlie most reliable sources "hat Sheriff Williams is to have a formidable opponent, for his re nomi nation to tlie office lie has tilled so well, in the person of Herman .1. 1 liansen. most well and favorably known throughout tlie county. We :tve it In rumor that Harry Miner a -. out f,.r the office of sheriff. I ii.- above is all the positive infor • iti n we ha.e as to candidates. ■ gh we hear rumors of tlie pos ; ie candidacy for countv superin • ode nt of sUpt.
