CONCERNING GROUND HOGS
The ground hog my son belongs to
that animal species known to scientists
and natural historians and delvers into
zoological mysteries as the American
Arctomys or Marmot As a weather
prophet the Arctomys trot in the same
class as the igoose bone and corn shuck
but does its prognosticating after the
latter two have one to sleep and com
menced waiting for another winter so
they may again decieve the innocent
and guileless granger into believing we
are goiug to have a good winter for
wheat and rye when Hicks tells us
nit
As we said before the goose bone
tells us what kind of winter W6 are

Last year was one of low imports
yet they are still falling at a remark

the first three weess of January this

Is it any wonder that the deficit
keeps on growing when the last ses

propriated 51000000 and the pres

ditional revenue being provided

The Exposition of 1898 -is not
bounded by the city limits of Omaha

possibly do The fate of the exposi
