iVO NEVER!
Ah Effectual lYntllHg; of the
Ealwe Report an Keanrdi
the Baltimore aad Ohio.
(.Special Dispatch to the Chicago IVmes.)
Baltimore, Juue 19th. The fast
train interest appears to be in no
danger of subsiding, as the Balti
more and Ohio comes to the front
again Mouday with a second daily
lightning express out of Chicago.
It will leave about eight o'clock iu
the morning, and reach Washington
at noon next day, and Baltimore an
hour later, four hours ahead of any
other morning train out of Chicago.
This effectually nails the report that
the B. & O. had, or was intending
the withdrawal of its fast trains.
Such action was never thought of,
no change whatever having been
made in the fast timo schedule since
it first went into effect. The 5 :15
P. M. train out of Chicago reaches
Washington the next evening, no
other 5.15 P. M. train on competing
lines making the Capital until tho
second morning.

Every tax-payer is interested in
the general welfare of the county,
and should show his interest by
building up every established Insti
tution that increases the value of
property and tho number of tax
payers. Suppose every man here
to-day should secure, by his individ
ual efforts, a new settler aud tax
payer, see what an addition there
would be to our population, and a
consequent decrease of the rate of
taxation ! We concede that this is
one of the most selfish reasons why
a man shonld evidence a public
spirit, a spirit which not only alms
to earn money for its possessor, but
earns it with some sort of reference
to tho welfare of others.
All last week was excellent
corn weather in this region of coun
try, and that important cereal took
advantage of the situation, and lit
erally made hay while tho suu was
shining. Nebraska is counting upon
the greatest crop of corn in all her
history, and we sincerely hope she
may not be disappointed. Good
land and labor make corn ; corn and
grass make cattle; and cattle make
money; and plenty of monoy means
better dwellings, better barns, fen
ced fields, good schools, thriving
communities. Hurrah for the boys
and the men and tho horses that are
now engaged In prospecting for the
true gold which grows on the stal
wart stalk!
