OFFICIAL CITY& COUNTY PAPEB.
HASTINGS is now a city of the
first class.
FREE SUGAR goes to the spot.
Do it some more.
TWENTY-FIVE states have
- adopt
ed the Australian ballot system.
It is about time to change the
name to the American , system.
THE national league of republi
can clubs will meet in annual ses
sion at Cincinnati the 21st. Neb
raska is entitled to 19 delegates.
AN EXTRA session of the legis
lature is one of the things we can
look forward to with such Christian
resignation as we can command.
LAST year Colorado grew § 40- ,
000,000 worth of crops. It will be
appreciated what Nebraska can do
in irrigation when it is known that
the North Platte river alone is
claimed to flow as much water in
June as eight of Colorado's largest
rivers whose waters are utilized for
that purpose. .
THE question of irrigation has
come to stay in "Western Nebraska.
The community that first practi
cally settles the matter by build
ing a ditch , will be the wisest and
will enjoy the blessings longest.
McCook should endeavor to act
wisely and promptly. It is a con
dition we confront , not a theory.
THE Denver News claims that
only about half the lands subject
to irrigation in Colorado are under
cultivation ; and yet those acres
produced crops worth $40,000,000 ,
more than the output of all her
rich mines. Contemplate the pos
sibilities of "Western Nebraska ,
when the priceless waters of her
wonderful rivers are spread over
her fertile acres ! Pavored with a
lower altitude , less liable to hail's
devastation , with richer soil , more
splendid results can be expected in
Nebraska. This , together with her
boundless and unapproachable
grazing lands , will place "Western
Nebraska in an enviable position.
Her farmers and stockmen will be
prosperous and contented and
happy.
NEBRASKA has made of Arbor
Day a national day for tree plant
ing in nearly every state in the
union. This state has set the ex
ample that has been a wonderful
impetus to the development and
improvement of the western prair
ies and each year has made a re
cord of tree planting that is a
monument to the public good.This
year should show no decrease in
the observance of Arbor Day. The
people of McCook should add to
the record it has already made in
tree planting. April 22nd is a
date that this year does not fall
too late for tree planting , but if
any are ready let them plant them
now and credit up the total on
Arbor Day. A million trees a
year planted and cared for will
make in fifty years a state supply
ing its own timber for us , besides
the comfort and cheer that comes
from forests of trees' where no
trees grew before.
THE people of Nebraska , have
every reason for feeling encourag
* ' ed .over the prospects for a pros
- perous season. The outlook agri
culturally has never been better ,
and a crop of unusual abundance
may be looked for with confidence.
Prices , too ; are certain to besatis
factory. The world's store of corn
is at a very low ebb , there is not
enough wheat in sight to supply
the wants of the grain consuming
nations , beef is rapidly advancing
in value , and the success of the
administration in opening a way
for the American , hog jn ; JEurope
can hardly fail to cause a sharp
advance in the price of pork It
will take two : oVthree seasons of
plenty to glut the markets of the
world with our products againand
in the meantime the western fann
er ought to recover all his T recent
losses and layjby a ; snug balance
for future-needs. , The turning
point in the fortunes of the agri-
calturalisfe has evidently been
reached. tate Journal. , . , .

THE exportation of American
cattle to Germany grows apace.
Official Hamburg figures show
that the receipts , at that port for
January were 144 ; for February ,
451 ; for March , 811. If the trade
continues to increase in , this ratio
it is safe to predict that no more
corn will be used for fuel in Neb
raska and that very little will be
sold in the future for fifteen cents
