It is. Mated that it will require
$50,000 to repair losses at Ft. Pierre.
Gek. Graxt has arrived in Mexi
co. We .suppose work on that pro
posed railroad will now begin in
earnest.
It is stated war bas broken out
between the American and Mexican
residents of 1 Paso, Texas. Six

crops have suffered great damage.
All the Nihilists convicted of
complicity in the murder of the
Czar of .Russia, except Hessy Hell
mann, were hanged at St. Petersburg
on the morning of the 15th.
Bradlaugh has been re-elected a
member of the commons from
Northampton.. The commons will
have to unseat him again or admin
ister the oath to him as he directs.
Mrs. Charlks Ballou, of'Saronac
Michigan, the far-famed fat woman,
died recently. Her weight, when
with sbows,was stated at 570 pounds.
Her weight before death was 400
pounds.
An immense concourse of people
attended the execution of the assas
sins of the late Czar of Russia. There
was no disturbance among the peo
ple. Roussakotr fainted at the last
moment
C. & G. Coor-ER & Go's, engine and
iron works at Mt. Vernon, Ohio,
burned recently. The loss on build

James O'Briak, who figured so
conspicuously in the Chinese letter
attributed to Garfield, pleaded guil
ty to perjury in New York, and was

A strange disease bas carried off
100 Chinamen employed on the
Canadian Pacific Railroad in British
Columbia. They die within fifteen
minutes after being attacked. The
cause of the disease will be inves
tigated. The new Czar seems to be in as
horrible a situation as his martyred
father was during the latter days of
his reign, and as fearful of being
mnrdered as was his father. Threats
have been numerous, and the Nihil
ists seem to be as well informed as
usval of everything that takes place.
At a stock Bale at Waukegan, 111.,
recently, fifty-four head were sold,
averaging 517 per head. One cow

note these little occurrences, keep
them in memory, and improve their
herds as opportunity and the state of
their purses may allow.
EiGHTr-TWO tax-payers of Butler

cent of the face of all Butler county
and Spurk precinct bonds issued to
the Lincoln & N. W. R. R. Co.which
he shall succeed in having the courts
of this State declare null and void ;
to says the Press.
The report 6f good news comes
from Washington to the effect that
Mabone and Alexander Stephens
have fraternized, and they seem to
agree entirely in anticipating some
thing like a political milleuium, and
in believing that they will bring it
about. No good citizen should in
terpose any objection to a political
mulleuinm in that quarter, as it
would unquestionably result to the
interest of the Union, and partic
ularly the material interests of the
.South.

The interest in the summer and
fall elections is commencing to crop
out, and within a month the chances
of the different aspirants for the suf
frage of the sovereign people will
be discussed pro aud con with con
stantly increasing animation. The
all potent argument as to the party
probabilities will be the figures of
the last contest and none will be
more earnestly canvassed than those
of the congressional struggle, aud
this being the fact, the new B. & O.
Red Book congressional edition be
comes almost indispensable. No
publication of political statistics
ever made equals it in extent of in
formation given, or in comprehen
sive arrangemept It shows' not
only the result of the election of
1880, but the result as well of
the election of 1878. The Re
publican, Democratic and Green
back vote for tho two elections is
presented separately and compar
isons made of gains or losses of the
differeutparties. Total votes are
also the subject of comparison, and
this exhaustive showing is made of
every congressional district in the
Union by counties. The book is
one of oue hundred and twelve
pages, is a marvel of typographical 1
beauty, being printed upon an ele
gantly finished paper, and the cover
is one of the most exquisite things
in the way of artistic design issued
for many a year. The Red Book is
a B. & O. publication intended ioi
Bomethiug above the ordinary cir
culation, and to this end is sent only
where requests are made to C. K.
Lord, G. P. A., Baltimore, Md., lor
it by mail and enclosing a three ceut
Btamp. The Red Book will thus be
mailed to all who may write to Mr.
Lord for it, aud certainly those who
receive it will not part with it for
almost any money, so exceedingly
valuable a text book is it for all who
are interested in or care aught for
political statistics.
R. K. Assessment.
Tho people of the state desire
even-handed justice with the corpo
rations. Notwithstanding the in
sanity of some paid talkers, the
people make no other demand, and
it is safe to say they will not be sat
isfied with less than this. While
railroads are earning enormous per
centages upon their investments, it
is very evident to all who have given
the subjectany thought that they are
not bearing their proportionate bur
den of the expenses of government.
The law requires that all property
shall be assessed at its cash value.
The constitution requires the "levy
ing a tax by valuation, so that every
person and corporation snail pay a
tax in proportion to the value of
his, her or its property aud fran
chises." If the property of individ
uals is assessed at one-third its cash
valup, the same rule should be ob
served with reference to corpora
tions. But it will be seen that the
franchises of corporations (which
have never been assessed at all in
thiB state) are very valuable, in some
instances more valuable than the
mere property belonging to them,
aud there are different ways of esti
mating this, for the purpose of taxa
tion, by the net earnings compared
"with the investment, as a matter of
Interest, and by the market price of
stock, as representing the combined
value of both property and franchise!
and bb representing the same in cash.
The attention of the people of
Nebraska has been directed to this
subject, and will be again. Those
who have the matter in charge may
as well take it for granted that their
action will be looked into, and their
motives scrutinized. Let them
weigh it well, doing tbeir whole
duty under the constitution, in strict
compliance with their oath of office,
and in furtherance of Nebraska's
grand motto, Equality before the
law.
In all probability there will be an
extra session of the legislature some
time during the term of the present
incumbents, district the state for
congressional representation. At
the time so many of the state legis
latures were in session last winter,
congress was very strongly urged
to pass the apportionment bill pend
ing before them so that the states
would be saved the expense of hold
ing extra sessions. A number of
the members of the Nebraska legis
lature were in favor of districting
the 6tate into three districts, assum
ing that three would be onr allotted
number of congressmen. Others
thought that such action, in advance
of action by congress, would be ille
gal, or at least questionable. Be
sides this, the apportionment that
6eemed to meet with most favor
placed the statesmen of Omaha, Lin
coln, Nebraska City, Beatrice, etc,
etc., in one district, which did not
suit either of said several parties
interested, and the combination of
adverse circumstances was enough
to defer action altogether. As it is
probable that the law to be enacted
by congress will provide for election
by districts, it is therefore probable
that an extra session of our legisla
ture will be called.

It has been known to our citizenB
for sometime that the U. P. officials
would construct their road from
here to Lost Creek station if Colum
bus precinct would donate to the
Co. $25,000 precinct bonds. They
desired, however, to begin work bo
fore the requisito legal time could
be taken to call the election, etc. A
guarantee in the nature of a bond in
the sum of $20,000 and upwards, to
be paid to the Co. in case the pre
cinct bonds ahall not be voted, has
been signed by our citizens and ten
dered to the Company. It is un
derstood all around that this se
cures us the road, and that it will be
in running order within the next
two weeks.
For this consummation both the
Company and this community are
to be congratulated. It has been
due, first aud foremost to the ele
ments, and the natural lay of the
land, and second to the good sense.
sound judgment and tact of both the
high contracting parties. Now let
every man put his shoulder to the
wheel, and give the good old city
such an impetus that it shall be felt
through all her future history.
A. Railroad Yardmaiter ftfar
aered at Laramie.
The body of Yardmaster Graves
of the U. P. railroad, who has charge
of the company's grounds at Lara
mie, was found. between 2 and 3
o'clock yesterday dead in the yard,
at that place, having been shot by
some unknown person. Circum
stances pointed strongly to C. A.
Perionett, freight conductor of the
U. P. railroad, as having been the
guilty party, and he was arrested.
At 10 o'clock this morning the cor
oner's jury was in session, but the
result of their deliberations is not
yet learned.
Perionett is said to be a brother of
conductor Perionett, of this division
of the U. P. There bad been bitter
enmity between himself and Graves
for some time, and he bad been
heard to make fierce threats against
tba latter. A knife aud pistol were
found on bis person after the arrest,
and there were other circumstances,
the details of which are not learned,
which indicate that he is the mur
derer. The people of Laramie have
no donbt of this being the fact. The
men were entirely alone when the
affair occurred, aud the evidence is
entirely circumstantial. Omaha

Dan Condon and H. Thienhardt
have a contract of railroad-building
on a U. P. branch starting from
Green River, W. T., and they were
in towu Saturday looking up hands,
offering $2 per day.

addition of Schuyler will begin in

for the carpenters and builders, and
indirectly als6 for every other busi

Mr. Brandt, of Columbus, was in
town Saturday for the purpose of
engaging teams and laborers to work
on a railroad contract in Pawnee
county. We understand Fritz Lam
mert and several other parties and
teams have hired and will leave for
the seat of operations next week.
All the Platte bridges between
Central City and Plattsmoutb, are
out. lu most instances the work of
re-construction will amount to about
the same as the original enterprise..
At the beginning of the break-up,
Schuyler's citizens virtually said
"good-bye bridge," and were very
much astonished to find it- "still
there" after the great crisis. It now
turns-out that there is more of our
bridge left than there is of many of
the more substantial structures, one e
spanning the Platte.
