... JUDGE BLACK.
vHon. Samuel W. Black, Judge of
the Second Judicial District, of this
Territory, as we announced in our" last
issue, arrived in the Territory last
week and held his first Court in this
City. "We are pleased to learn the
Judge's determination to bring up and
properly arrange the present confused
state of business in his District, ' and
keep matters in a correct shape. We
are also pleased to know that he will
conform to the law, and become aa ac
tual residence of his District. This
District especially, has heretofore felt
the inconvenience of its Judge residing
out of the Territory, and, as a natural
consequence, business has been poorly
attended to.
Judge Black brings with him a

others with whom he has become ac

that, his labors may "abound in good

cal centre of the county it ia in the centre of pop
ulation and improvement is on the main through
faro leading North and South and East and West.
The town site is nearly level, gently rollin, is sur
rounded by the timbers of the Missouri and Little
Nemaha; good water is of easy access, several fine
Bprings ore on the town site. Good building stone
near at hand stone coal has been found in abund-

Another matter, it is confidently believed that
the day is not far distant when a Railroad will be
constructed along tho river tier of counties in Ne
braska, from the northrcn to the southren boundary.
Tho nature of the country is such that this road must
pass through Jcddorado.
With its position and all these advantages sur
rounding it, the proprietors with many others, feel
assured that it will be for the best interests of the
county to locate the County Seat at Eldorado. Be
lieveing thus and feeling willing to assist the county
we pledgo ourselves and will enter into bond, if
necessary, to donate to tne bounty two hundred
acres of land in town lots, provided the County Seat
is located there within a reasonable length of time.
