Cass County, and favors it. We are
glad to sea this spirit from Lincoln.

The Bee has over two columns on the
feeling of the. State Press about rail
xoad matters. It heads them "Voice of
Chelate Press, Thunder Claps from
Various Quarters, Senatorial and Con
gressional Aspirators, Tho L P. Bridge
and the ftate of Omaha." - Many of
them are very severe on both Omaha
and the course of a portion of the Press
thfc-re. Mr. Kosewater has shown good
newipaper sense la Lis 1 treatment Of
this bUfcUU'SS.
Xo attempt at voting bonds, or ask
ing precinct aid wili bo made. The
proposition is something like this: The
stock books of the M. P. Railway Co.
will be sent here, and all interested can"
subscribe for such an amount of stock
as they are willing to take, in money,
or in work, com, hay, or wood, or part
money, and the rest in any of the above
things that can be used. If sullicient
stock is thus subscribed, a contract will
be entered into at once to complete the
road from here to Xeb. City.
If this plan can be accomplished,
and we see nothing to hinder it, we
may exiect to see tae dirt Hying on the
Trunk Road this spring. It would be
useless for the IIi:nALi to go over the
ground we have so often before, show
ing that this road will benefit the
whole county, the whole eastern part
of tha state for that matter. We be
lieve it to be as the Omaha Republican
has said "the back bone of the Rail
Road system of Nebraska."
Without any prejudice against any
other Company or Road, and with no
hard feelings towards any existing
Rail Road Co.. we think the state and
county needs this line, no matter by
what Company it happens to be built.

We deprecate any feeliag in our com

any unjust charges"agaiust the B. & M.

If Cass county thiuks she can better
herself by aiding the building of more
railroads through her borders, she has
the right. If the pro-rata bill benefits
the whole State we have the right to

we tramped down to the "mine," and
as by this time word bad spread that a
great geologist had come to examine
the wonderful mine, we were followed
by all the boys in town, and for some
distance around ia the country.
The "mine" is simply a drift in the
point of bluffs' just north of town,
aboui a quarter of a mile above the
main street. It opens just where the
bluffs approach the river closest, the
same as at our point here. The mouth
is about 100 feet from the water and
about 20 feet above water level. It
has been opened by a miner named
Win. Black, who says he was busted,
and robbed in the Black Hills, and
coming down here, accidentally dis
covered this outcropping. '

The IIeiiali and wife went np in
Washington county last week and
made a most agreeable visit with old
friends at Blair.
The town has improved a great deal
In th past a years. It is simply as
tonishing; new handsome houses have
gone up. nice shade trees have been
planted out all over the streets, (they
have had sense enough to shut up stock
und beautify the town), the side walks
are set out from the fences 3 or 4 feet
and look neat and clean, no rot and
mould against the fence (or just room
enough for weeds to grow and not
enough to keep tlieui down ss we have
here.)
They have three new church build
ings, two built since we lived there,
and a large new brick steam flouring
mill just put up the past summer.

heart of a fine county and has a good
future before it.
The Timts under Lnntry prosjers
and thrives, the Pilot just fairly under
way. is gaining strength, they light like
blazes, those papers do. but we suppose
we must endure that until the news
paper luillenium conies.
To attempt to enumerate all the kind
friends we saw, how gladly we were
welcomed would be impossible. What
a pleasant thing it is to go back to one's
old home, after all the little petty feuds
of newspaperdoui. or rivalries of busi
ness have been laid aside and forgotten.
Each party turns only the pleasant side
out and the really good qualities of

of friendship shines midimmed thenmd

Few of the readers of the Hekald
are aware of the number and bitter
ness of the epithets that Br. Miller al
ways uses in au attack. Let us give
you a few examples in the R. R. war:
"Incorporated commercial cut-throats
public plunderers, nndserieak thieoea."
Of JulgB Crouuse, our Representative,
he s peats as a "clumsy demagogue,"
and again adv ises our Senators "to cut
tho jugulars of the throat-cutters who
would inflict a blow on Omaha."
We might fill much more space with
this style of adjectives, which he has
applied to either our Representatives,
R. R. ouiciais, or the people.
He says they aro "impersonal," don't
mean anything. Sec. Then what folly
to fill a paper with them, and what in
fluenco can they have. If he means
tbera, then are they tho bitterest and
most burning words of contempt that
the language is capable of producing,
applied to his neighbors, and his con
freres. This and this only can be our excuse
for retorting in the same vein. Many
think we are severe; we hope we are,
he needs it. It is the only language
h seems to understand.
Our Western exchanges arc filled
with well-written articles to prove the
falseness of his iositioiis; for ail of
which he cares not a pinch of snuff.
What use to waste logic on a man who
is never logical; what need to urge ar
gument to a man that never agrues.
Take the epithets, inueudoes, interrog
atories from almost any column of his
editorials, and there Is nothing but
-gibberish,"" Indeed, left.' 1

without fear and trembling, but then
his used to it. We pushed Allen,
who weighs 200 in before us, calcu
lating that if anything fell, it would
hit hiiu first, and we could crawl out
under his lee, somewheres. and irct

didn't want him Irehind, choking up
the entrance, if the hole should shrink

have to almost squeeze? through, and
Allen has to go edgeways, as there is
a small chance for bay windows there.
Twenty feet of this andwc come to rock,
and the drift is widened and deepened
so that we can stand m. A little fur
ther and we strike what they call the
coal. Sometimes walking and some
time crawling, we go on for nearly
100 feet from the mouth. Black is
just drilling fur another eharge.
The Professor and Black hold can

learnedly of "seeps," and "veins," and
"coming in," and "sub-strata while

Mr. Fred. Dorrington of this city, is
now in Minnesota, looking np th. mer
its of a new seed wheat, of which he
expects to have several car-loads here
for sale next week. It is Fife Wheat,
comes from too extreme northern
boundary of Minn., and produces there
4 bushels to the acre.
On our soil, and from the benefits of
a change of seed, it should yield much
more. It will have to be sold at about
5 '.23 per bushel, whii'h makes it cost
about to seed an acre.
This wheat brings the first price in
Chicago markets.

seed wheat will have to speak q"iiick.
