If anybody asks you, why Prof.
W. E. Andrews of Hastings will
be the next republican candidate
for congress from the Fifth Neb
raska district.
The friends of Hon. J. C. Allen,
present secretary of state, will not
rest until he is the republican nom
inee for congress in the Fifth dis
trict.—Hastings Democrat.
Communities should be more
careful about granting valuable
franchises without adequate con
sideration and protection to the
people. This, and the voting of
bonds, have already been carried
too fair in many Nebraska counties
and cities.
The United States government
undertakes to make coast sruveys,
geological surveys, and geodetic
surveys, as well as surveys of
several other kinds. The western
farmer is uot demanding too much
when he askes the federal author
ities to make a map and survey
showing the region where irriga
tion is possible and practicable.—
Omaha Bee.
Before this administration closes
its record, if the government does
not own all the railroads in the
United States, it will probably at
least have ’em all in the hands of
receivers appointed by the federal
courts, which is the next tliiug to
government ownership. That will
make it handy in raising the treas
ury deficiency, according to the
suggestions of Grover, by “taxing
the income of certain corporations.”
There will be no difficulty in
arriving at the incomes of roads in
the receivers’ hands.—Journal.
