Men of the world hold that it is im
possible to do a disinterested action , ex
cept from an interested motive ; for the
sake of admiration , if for no grosser ,
more tangible gain. Doubtless they are
also convinced that , when the sun is
throwing his effulgent light from the
sky , he is only standing there to be
staled at. Anon.

The dance given in the Opera Hall ,
on last Thursday evening , by the railroad
boys , we are pleased to state , was a most
eiijoyable one. from a social standpoint
and equally successful in a financial way.
Despite the inclemency of the weather ,
the Hall'was comfortably filled at the
appointed hour , and all went along as
' merrily as marriage bells" until the
party reluctantly withdiew between 2
and 3 o'clock. We congratulate the
boys on the success of their first social
affair in McCook. and we hope to chron
icle others before the winter is over.
J. M. Beehtel , Esq. , of I'eoria , Illinois ,
a prominent official of the C. B. & Q. ,
was in town , last week , in the interest of
Eastern Emigration to this point. He

surrounding country , and arranged with
Thos. Golfer to advertise him at this
point as a Real Estate 'Broker. 100- ,
000 large bills descriptive of the coun
try with a new map plate of Southern
Nobm < ka and Northern Kansas , show

an unusually large emigration to Mc
Cook , during the coming season.
We have before us- , sent us from
Pennsylvania , a copy of the Febrtia.y ,

CONGRESS has the pre-emption , tim-
jer-culture and desert land acts under
Consideration , and the chances are that
: hese acts will all be repealed at this
session. By reason of the conflicting
reports concerning these biJJs we are
jnable to give the exact status of the
; ame. But all wishing to use the pre-
jmption or timber-culture right had
better be on the alert and take advan
tage of the same , as the probabilities
ire largely in favor of their repeal , and
the same will likely go into effect
immediately.

RED WILLOW COUNTY.
EDITOR TIUBUXK Dear Sir : There
are those who may read your valuable
paper , who have not the means of know-
in IT the present outlook and condition
of our county und the west poition of
this state relative to prospects , etc. ,
from an agricultural point of view.
For the benefit of such we will sub
mit a fe.w facts in relation thereto :
To the casual observer it might seem
that th < ; present protracted and severe
cold S ] ell , with the quite unusual depth
of snow , might be looked upon as rather
detrimental than otherwise ; but upon
reflection it will be readily admitted
that it is a well known , fact that all
severe win crs are and ever have been
followed by the very best tesults in the
growing of cereals and all kinds of farm
produce. And not only this , the length
and severity of the present and past
winter , together with the increase of
rainfall , are prima facie evidence of
that change ofclimate so long expected
and so sure to conic to all new coun
tries ; but to us so long in coming , as
to discourage many hundreds of men
who have been lit re and gone , some to
return-even worse off than those who ]
remained to st < in the storms of finan
cial distress caused by the great and i
( in those days ) insurmountable pbsta- '
cles and difficulties that are to-day ,
thanks to the Great Giver of all < : oed '
and perfect gifts , numbered among the
things of the pa.-t buried in oblivion
by the bright , glorious and happy pros
pects of our future prosperity never
more to return.
Red Willow county is the recipient
of an impetus born of and akin to those
motives , principles and determinations
that will take an hundred fold more to
baffle or discourage than in the days
gone by. And wur present population
is here to stay and they will stay. In
looking over the' condition of old set
tlers , many of whom came here with
but very little capital , are to-day in
comfortable circumstances , with plenty .
of everything necessary to life and
happiness around them : Horses , cattle ,
tie , hogs , poultry , grain of all kinds
and vegetables. The universally large
yield of crops of all kinds , the past sea
son , gives us an amount equal to any' '
demand likely to be made upon us by
the emigration soon to commence
pouring in. and a very large emigra
tion is expected. And right here lt l
me answer in a general way letters re
ceived by me , almost daily , relative to
prices of grain , hay and other produce ,
from paitics who contemplate coming
West :
We quote corn and rye at 20c. to
25c. ; wheat. 40c. to SOc. : oats and bar
ley , 35c. to 50c. ; hog-,4c. to 5c. Good
work horses high and scarce. Farm
machinery can be bought here as cheap
as any where west of the Mississippi ,
considering the difference in freights.
Now that there is a reasonable assur
ance of reaping that which we sow and
at the same time get ting a good yield
of No. 1 grain we think wo can offer
substantial inducement1 * to those east
of here who rent land and but just ob
tain a livelihood thereby. It is safe tp
say they can live as well here as they
do there and their land will.be growing
in value just in proportion as they beau
tify and improve it.
We do not pen this with a view > f
unduly influencing any to come here ,
but simply to enlighten those who arc
led to believe that this is a barren uil-
derness by stories to that effect put in
circulation in the cast by the e who are
interested in retarding the march of
emigration hither. There is yet a
large amount of government land sub
ject to entry in western Nebraska , and
the sooner this land is utilizer' ' the better
for all concerred. Respectfully.
