have hardly time for doing much iu
the way ot furnishing news at this

doing it a great injustice.

Dr. S. V. Moore of York county,
and that county's representative iu
the legislature, was sent by the
commissioners of York county to
represent them at the meeting of
the State Board of Equalization. He
says the Governor and Slate Audi
tor treated him kindly and with
consideration. He says the Gov
ernor pointed out the imperfections
of the law under which the Board
had to do its work, but failed to
give a reason why he had not point
ed them out in his message to the
legislature. He suggests that, from
what ho has learned, the proper way
to meet the wants in this matter an
other year is for county commis
sioners to scud' oue of their number
to Lincoln, to meet in convention a
little before tho time fixed by law
for the assessment of railroad prop
erty, and let that convention ap
point a committee and employ some
one to stay right thoro and present
their case to the State Board of
Equalization and auswer all these
arguments for unjust, uuequal rail
road legislation. Wo get thoso items

liance was organized last January,
and in its progress has far exceedod
tho fondest hopes of its warmest
friends. Since the organization of
the State Alliance no less than 243

the association now claim that it
holds the balance of power between
the political parties of the State.
The aunual meeting of the State
Alliance will be held at Liucoln on
the 7th of September next.
Any information respecting the
action or movements of the State
Alliance can be obtained by subor

The Durango liecord, published
in Colorado, says we want girls who
can get themselves up in good shape
to go to a dance. We want girls
who will go to church and to Bible
class on Sunday, aud that kind who
can draw a congregation of the
other sex. We want girls who can
wait on the table, and who can smile
us into an appetite. We want girls
for sweethearts, so that when we
get an arm shot off, or kicked by a
mule, or thrown from a bucking
horse and laid away for repairs, we
may hear a gentle voice, and see the
glitter of a crystal tear spoken and
dropped in unconscious sympathy.

cheerful under the circumstances,
nothing having occurred to disturb
their enjoyment ou the trip except a
pappoose fell overboard from the
Helena, and the mother jumped
after, intending to rescue it from the
jaws of the mighty Missouri, but the
relentless water claimed them both.

neBs will be Omaha. The capital
stock will be $3,000,000, iu shares of

is to extend it into Nebraska, on the

connect it with Mr. Gould's present
system of roads.
