'Word comes from Lincoln that the bills introduced from primary l w is likely to fail on account of t.le . opposition of the politi.cians. T.1e past we k has been the coldest weatber experienced in this locality for many years. 'fbe g.roultd is coverld : witb about a foot of snow and the thereniom- cter dropped to 38 below , Sunday nig-ht. We have had no wind nd the sleighing is the best this part of tbecountry ever had. 'Ve b cl more snow 1n 1881 , but it drifted too badly for sleiforhing. The weather at this writing. - . Wednesday , has greatly moderated - ed , the therct110meter regbtering from 10 to 15 above. Geo. W. Berge , the late fusion candidate. has de\'eloped a fine scheme to get free advertisement for himself. Not withstanding he is a defeated candidate. for . office he has drafted a bill for the legislature which. he has had pub- li hed by the newspapers as his proposed anti-pass bill. An anti- pass bill would no doubt be popular - ular with the public and especially - ally well pleasing to the railroad companies and the proposed bill of Mr. Berge has other good qualities that would commend itself - self to the public , had it the stamp of sincerity accompaningits pub- lication. 'It provides for the state I paying the transportation of state officials in cases of official duty , cuts _ the rate to 2f cents a mile and the rate for children under twelye years of age at one c nt a mile. It provides that em- ployes of the railroad companies shall be permitted to ride on a pass. The bill further provides that mileage bools shall be sold for two cents a mile and they shall be good on any railroad iu the state. . , Had Mr. Berge had as great a : cl sire to serve the public a good t > > 'n as he se ms to have had to g . .tis name in the papers he . ' " would have quitely looked up an influential 'friend , in the legisla- ture' and got him to introduce bis bill , t hen it would ba ve bad some sh . . . , of becoming a law , as the pro\'isio s would be very satisfac. tory to the railroads of the state and there would be no opposition f m tbat source. It is a question wheth r a member of the legislature - ture could be induced" by love or money , to play God father for the bill. The very bestthat can re- BUlt now from the formati' is a tittle free arlveti5ing for Mr. ' Berge. " D'urUngtuD E'tobru rl llnllotlu.

This bill , when introduced , provided for the re-a9.scssing of real estate this year , then every four years thereafter. The a thor of the bill claimed that many mistakes were made in pladng values on real estate lqst year , which he thought could be remediecl this year in a re-assessment. A majority - jority of the House did not favor any re.assessment of real estate , and that .iection of the bill ' " as stric1en out. A particular point in the bill as passed provides tllat the books of the township asseiS- ment be made up in the office of the county asse.ssor , the deputy assessors forwarding tbe schl d- ules made out each day , to the county assessor. enate File No. 14 , by Jennings of Thayer , has passed the senate. This bill authorizes scbool dis- trictshaving 150 pupils to build a schoolhouse costing$5tOOO. On a motion by Foster , of Douglas county , Speaker Rouse , has appointed a committee to draft a reasonable freight rate bill to be presented to the House. It is hoped that the committee will succeed in introduCing a measure that will promise the people of Nebraska. some reI ief trom the exorbitant freight rates that now exist , and that the bill will pass and become a law. The , press of Nebraska is almost - most unanimous in favor of the primary system , of nominating c udidates for office , but the politicians - ticians ar opposed to any sech measure becoming a law. Sever- nl primary bills have been introduced - duced , but it is doubtful if any will pass. The friends of the Couuty Op. tion bill were given a hearing be. fore the judiciary committee last Thursday afternoon in the senate chamber. The friends of tHe measure were ably represented bJ men of prominence in religiou and educational circles through , out the state. The hill has beet favorably reported by the commit. tee an placed on general file , n will probably be brought befor { the Senate tbis week. There is iJ possible chance of the bill bein passed in the Senate , but as tc the kind of treatment it will re ceive in the House , it is too ear1 I to say.

J . . , oC' oC'M comwittec , 111 an interview 'With the writer , says : "The Kansas I prison t wine factory has been in I operation fou'r- years , The first year , on account of mismanaKc.- J11cnt and ignorance no profit was made , although t O loss was sus- tained. 'l'he last three years has bcen a success and has saved to the farmcrs of the state and to the institution over . 5200,000. The profits to the plant have been 568,000 in cash , which they now have on hand. Twine has been sold direct to the farmers for 8 cents and 9 cents per lb , a saving of over 5150,000 to the farmers of the state over the twine trust prices. 545,000 is invested in the plant and 5150,000 in a revolving or operating funcI which they now have on hand in either ra" , material - terial , or twin , or cash. When theseason for twine selling.comef , they will convert this twine into cash and invest it again in raw material , so the state can lose nothing , but the 545,000 invested in the plant. But as the profils have alread.v reached $68,000 the plant is clear and $23,000 to the f.ood. It is a good , first-class business proposition for the state , besides the hundreds of thousands of dollars it will save to the farmers - mers of the state. " . ChI nIl' ' \Io&cy Fur Farm Loon ! ! . . - Among Monday's visitors to Broken Bow were Messrs. F. H. Ertel and'O. . 'F. Ingalls of Chica. go , who represent the investment journal of "Bonds and Mortgages" of tbat city. For some time , im- rortant inquiries bave reached their office from large private investors - vestors in Illinois , Michigan and Wisconsin , regarding the relia- bility' ' and superior merit of the farm mortgages of this county. Large sums will likely find their way into Custer county on the strength of the visit of tbese gentlemen. who' express their surprise 'at the diversified resources - ces and crops of this section , which they assert is 5ur to redound - dound to liberal investments in Custer county farm loans on the part' of some of the largest and most discriminating eastern in- vestors.
