C. K. Allen, the former express
agent at Sidney, has been taken into
custody on the charge of complicity
in the recent express office robbery.
As he was a well-known citizen, and
has held important positions of
trust, and a man of excellent repu
tation, it is not likely that he has
been arrested without pretty strong
evidenco against him. It is likely
that one or two other men, living
in Sidney, will be arrested. It will
be remembered that $125,000, mostly
in bullion, was removed from the
office while agent Allen was at din
ner, but most of it, except about
$13,000, was recovered, it being
found in-a coal pile under the office.
It was a very bold deed, and the
parties came very nearly getting
away with the whole plunder.
Further developments are awaited
with a great deal of iutereBt. Oma

The citizens of Omaha last week
were somewhat excited by reading
certain comments in the Sioux City
Journal and St. Paul Pioneer, rela
tive to negotiations reported in
progress between the managers of
the Sioux City, St. Paul and Omaha
line, for the Sioux City and Pacific.
Tho citizens of Columbus feel a like
interest in every item of news con
nected with a line of railroad that
shall connect us with Sioux City and
the north, which sooner or Inter is
sure to be built. We clip :
"The Sioux City Journal made
the announcement that the managers
of the Sioux City, St. Paul and
Omaha line were negotiating for
the Sioux City & Pacific, known as
the Blair line, which is a Hue of
road running on the east side of the
Missouri from Sioux City to Coun
cil Bluffs, with a branch extending
from Omaha along the valley of the
Platte, cutting the Union Pacific at
Fremont and thence running in a
northwesterly direction to Stanton,
Nebraska."
We learn from the Norfolk Jour
nal that the counties of Antelopt',
Madison, Pierce, Wayne, Stanton
and Cuming have formed an associa
tion to be called "The Elkhorn Val
ley Immigration Association." Their
plan of operation is to employ a
general agent to canvass in the east,
and to distribute published pamph
lets, posters and circulars containing
descriptions of the lands, etc., in the
counties embraced within the asso
ciation. Expenses of the association
to be borne by the several counties.
For new and sparsely settled conn
ties we pronounce the plan a good
one, and can cheerfully recommend
it to all localities similarly situated.
The Association has completed an
organization by the election of the
following officers: C. P. Mathew
son, of Norfolk, president; I. N.
Taylor, of Oakdale, first vice presi
dent j J. H. Brown, of Pierce, second
vice president; R. B.Crawford, of
La Porte, recording secretary ; J. W.
C. Jones, of Norfolk, corresponding
secretary; J. W. Pollock, of West
Point, treasurer; J. T. Eberly, of
Stanton, general agent An execu
tive committee, consisting of the
chairman of the board of county
commissioners and the county clerk
of each county, was appointed.
That Homestead IlHsiaeus.
A hue and cry has been raised all
over Nebraska and Kausas concern
ing a certain bill before congress, in
regard to additional eighty acres to
be granted to homesteaders who had
taken only eighty acres ; it appears
that a firm somewhere in Kausas
was quietly engineering the matter"
iu congress and makitig contracts
with probable beneficiary home
steaders to pay them $50 each for
securing the passage of the bill, and
also the additional eighty acres for
the applicant. Sub-agents had been
appointed or were being appointed
all over these two States, and it was
probable that a large sum of money
would have been gobbled up had
not the press got wind of the sly
chaps, and ventilated the thing.
Senator Paddock, always true to the
best interests of the Stale, und the
public welfare, as well, on the 10th
of February last reported back to
the Committee on Public Lands, the
bill amended, which we print bolow.
The amendments provide that crops,
or forest or fruit trees can be cultiva
ted, and that assignment or transfer
prior to the issuance of patent shall
benull and void. Of course the fur
ther services (?) of the Kansas busi
ness (?) Co. iu the lnterosts (?)of
the dear people will be dispensed
with by this bill, and Senator Pad
dock is entitled to the thanks of his
constituency and the country gen
erally for his prompt and efficient
action in the matter:
a bill to equalize homesteads.
Be it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Con
gress assembled, That every person
entitled, under the provisions of
section twenty-two hundred and
eighty-nine, chapter, five, Revised
Statutes of the United States, to
enter a homestead, who may have
heretofore entered, under the home
stead laws, a quantity of land less
than one hundred and sixty acres,
shall be permitted to enter so much
land as, when added to the quantity
previously entered, shall not exceed
one hundred and sixty acres ; Pro
vided, That when such additional
entry cannot be made of lands con
tiguous to the original entry of the
applicant, he may select lands else
where, but he shall not be entitled
to a patent therefor without satisfac
tory proof to the General Land
Office of the planting and continu
ous cultivation of crops or forest or
fruit trees on an area of the same
equal to one acre for each forty acres
thereof during a period of three
years; and all assignments and
transfers of the right hereby secur
ed, and all contracts to assign or
transfer such right made prior to
the issue of the patent, shall be null
and void : And provided further,
That any person who has entered less
than one hundred and sixty acres,
may, if he so elect, surrender his
original entry to the United States
for cancellation, and thereupon be
entitled to enter lands under the
homestead laws the same as if the
surrendered entry had not been
made.

A motion was made to sustain the
two-thirds rule in the national con
vention, -which was adopted by a

presidency.
Also resolutions of thanks were
passed to the citizens of Columbus
for their hospitable entertainment
and courtesies to delegates.
The convention made the follow
ing appointments: J. S. Morton;

IV'ewmaa's Or ore.
Prairie fires have recently been
raging south of Newman's grove.
Considerable damago was done on
the divide between here and the
head of Looking-glass. The fire
originated down the creek from
burning a straw stack.
E. M. Squires's stable, grain bin
and hog pen, with all his feed, seed
oats, some harness, saddle and a
good many small toolB, &"c., were
burned on the 26th ult. The fire
originated from burning a straw
stack on his own place. A Budden
change of wind soon pnt the fire
beyond control.
Sickness still continues to a con
siderable extent. There are several
cases of measles in the'neighborhood.
Farmers are vigorously pushing
forward their spring's work, but are
a little behind, owing partly to the
large amount of plowing to do this
spring. It was so dry last fall that
the usual amount of plowing was
not done. There will bemuch.more
ground cultivated than last year.
They are getting more favorable to
corn, and the proportion of that
crop will much exceed any previous
year. Our people feel much inter
ested in the Columbus packing house
enterprise, aud are preparing for
that market.
Emigration is slowly moving this
way, some stopping in this vicinity
aud some passing on westerly. Sev
eral prairie schooners passed, on the
1st, bound for the Niobrara.
A fine rain Friday will very much
facilitate farming.
Bishop ANDEnsoN.of M. Echurch
refused last week, at Boston, to
ordain Miss Oliver, to the ministry.
The delegates to the general confer
ence were instructed to use their
influence to abolish all distinctions
of sex in regard to ordinations.
