Ed Wilson, a prominent farmer near Boseland, camo near being killed by a cow Saturday. Her horn made an ugly and painful wound in his neck, and had it entered a quarter of an inch further it would have proved fatal. Albert Jdlics, a lumberman ei. -ployed by the Missouri Electric Light Company at St. Louis, was instantly killed by taking hold of a live wire. His burning body lay on the wires for ten minutes before being taken down. At the meeting of the general mana gers of the western roads at Chicago last weeK, it was agreed to advance west bound freight rates to the basis of 75 cents, first-class, between Chicago and Missouri river points, taking effect Jan uary l6t. A FEW minutes before midnight last Tuesday a hre broke out in tho larca cv elevator and mill situated on the"B track at Minden, and owned by N. C. Rogers. About 0,000 bushels of wheat, 1,500 bushels of peas and a quantity of flour was in the mill and all was consum ed. The loss is estimated at $16,000 and insured for $12,000. The origin of the fire is unknown. A movement was initiated at Ashford Saturday to get a concerted action of . Kansas, South Dakota and Nebraska in an appeal to the government for assist ance in irrigation projects, to aid in the construction of canals where canals are available, and to pat down artesian wells where a good water head cannot be obtained." It was urged that all the localities intereited in irrigation should at once hold meetings, adopt resolu tions and petition for assistance. Prominent persons from Scott's Bluff and Banner counties rjarticinated. and judging from the enthusiasm, they mean I I (JumOeBM, - dence they ahonld at once notify us by le-tr .'r postal cirri, giving both their former and thw: pcfnt port-offiiM, the first enable ustnresuiii .. i .1 ... ,. ..- ..j;i:... lit, from :hl-ll. Irrigation ia Nebraska. Nebraska is one of the best states in the Union for mixed agriculture and stock raising. This is a fact conceded by all who are Tensed on the subject. When the elements are just right, the results in agricultural products are sim ply wonderful, but there is scarcely a year but what during some part of the growing season it would be a great ad vantage to the farmer if he could give the crops some water. In very many sections of the great west, irrigation is indispensible to the growth of crops. Water must be supplied, to raise any thing. Nebraska has always produced a portion of a crop, sometimes a big one, without any artificial supply of water, bnt her facilities for production would be greatly multiplied by the successful irrigation of her very fertile soil. Along her natural stroams this can measurably be done by taking from them, but on tho table lands, it must mainly be accomplished by artesian wella It is thought that these wells can be sunk with success almost anywhere in the Missouri river basin, and there is much to encourage the farmers of Ne braska to a thorough test of the matter. In The Jodbnal we have already not ed two instances in Platte county where water rose to within a few feet of the surface, and it is natural to infer that a still lower depth would strike a gusher. The well on the government square at Lincoln is a constant reminder. There is one at Omaha. The one at Fort Ran dall is 000 foet deep and sends a stream forty feet into the air. It has been flowing for years, and there is no abate ment of its energy, says the O'Neill Frontier. The one ait Santee Agency, bolow Nio brara, yields a volume of 15,000 gallons a minute and is 750 feet deep. The one at Yankton has been (lowing for years and furnishes till tho water used by the city for all purposes. It is 650 feet deep. South Dakota, right north of Nebras ka, is greatly interested in irrigation by artesian wells, and there are many of them in the state, especially the Jim river valley. Wit! Nebraska it is only a question of exper-v-tho interest taken by the gen-"-il government will doubtless produce good results. Death and Pensions. Thero is one important fact which is not taken into account by the demo cratic organs that aro making such an outcry over an alleged increase of vast proportions in pension expenditures. That fact is death. Last year 21,000 pensioners were dropped from the rolls lecau8e they had gone over to the silent army. Thus whilo it is true that large additions have been made to the pension rolls under recent republican legislation it is not less true that the hand of death is erasing soldier names by thousands from the rolls. Henceforth it is not un likely that the number of the dead will annually almost equal the number of new pensioners. It will not be long until death will get the upper hand. Lot those who grudge the old veterans the friendly interposition of the richest government upon earth, a gov ernment saved largely through their sacrifices, possess themselves in patience. Not many years at most can pass before their ranks will be decimated with more fearful rapidity than when they joined the charge up to the cannon's mcuth. It is now nearly a third of a century since they left their homes for the camp and all the varied perils of war, and over a quarter of a century since the war was over. At tho age now reached by the surviving veterans the ill-healed wounds of battle and the insidious advances of tho diseases of exposure in camp and on tho tramp, in prison dens and fever swamps, make fearful ravages. Here and there thero tiro exceptions. Here and there may bo mistaken provisions of tho law. But oven at this late day, al though republics may sometimes be ungrateful, the people of this over-rich country are not going to join hands with death in a crusade against the old vet erans of the war for the union. They are not going to reverse their sympathies and enter upon a grudging, cheese-paring policy of pensions in the few years that remain till the last old soldier signs the last pension claim and passes from this world beyond the reach of any favor of the government. Sioux City Journal. In broad daylight last Tuesday after noon Joseph N. Asier, cashier of the All erton packing company's establishment at the stockyards, Chicago,was "held up" in his office by two men of granger-like appearance and relieved of $3,200 in cash. It had been brought in from the bank a few minutes before to payoff the men. The two strangers suddenly en tered the office and in an instant the cashier was looking down the muzzle of a big revolver. He was commanded to empty the money into a canvas bag which .is held by a second stranger. Eigh' n hundred men were working in 1c poking house, of which the office is i. part, but when the man with the gun said: "I'm nervous and this may go off if you don't hurry," the cashier hurried. A teamster came into the office, but was quickly covered by the second man's re volver. Tho robbers backed out of the door, barred it on the outside and made off in a buggy. No trace of them has been found. Jim Dover lost five head of cattle last week, all inside of 24 hours. The ani mals had eaten their fill of dry corn stalks, which caked in their stomachs, causing death. Dr. Otto TJnderberg, V. S., held a post-mortem examination, and says that was the only cause, as the dry stalks taken into an animal's stom sch in large quantities is indigestible. Dr. TJnderberg suggests that cattle own ers give their animals plenty of sulphur and saltpetre in their salt, plenty of water and keep them up and give them hay or straw in the mornings. Do not let them out in the stalk fields until afternoons, nor on an empty stomach, and there will be no danger of their dy ing from overeating of the dry and indi gestible com stalks. Madison Chroni cle. Tee indictment of Thomas Miller, late of this city, and now with the Q." at Chicago, together with several other -railway officials on a charge of violating the interstate law. sets railway men to thinking! G. M. Lambertson of Lincoln, counsel for Tom Lowery, the grain shipper of that city, is said to have had the most to do with the prosecution. It I is said that Lowery grew rich on re bates before the interstate law waa pass ed, and that since its passage he has brought trait for $100,000 against the " Q.,n alleging that it has given rebates to others and refused them to him. If Mr. Lambertson can show that rebates were given by the "Q." to other grain dealers he can make good use of the evi dence in Lowery 's suit Omaha World-Herald. We imported last year carpet wools to the amount of 81,123,000 pounds. Bat oar carpet mills have an annual capacity of only about 60,000,000 pounds. The other 21423,000 pounds displaced American wool in the manufacture of clothing. And the McKinloy bill will stop that. Meanwhile carpets will not be perma nently dearer. New York Press. E. J. McKinma, living five miles east of Tekamah, committed suicide last Tuesday by placing the muzzle of a double barrel gun over his heart and palled the trigger, killing himself in stantly. He leaves a wife and four small children very destitute. THE NEXT LEGISLATURE. Saggeatloa to ear Nebraska Stateaaea, Coat piled froat ear State Excaaagefl. The farmers have a clean majority of the legislature and they will doubtless see to it that the assessment methods of the state are carefully overhauled and revised. Every dollar's worth of prop erty in the state, publio or private, should be assessed at full value under severe penalties for assessors and assess ed. And has it occurred to members elect that they have a grand opportunity in this to immortalize themselves? A record that the first farmers' legislature of the state had raised the assessed val uation of the state from four hundred to six hundred per cent and reduced taxes from 4 to 6 per cent, to less than 1 per cent would certainly be a feather that every member of the legislature could wear in his cap with glory and honor. Fremont FlaiL One of the much needed reforms to be looked after by the legislature this win ter is the passage of a law governing the handling of the county funds. Give the county treasurer a reasonable salary for himself and also for deputy hire and let the benefit arising from the deposit of the county funds go into the treasury. Give the people a just and equitable law that will put an' end to the office of county treasurer being a bone of con tention. Wahoo New Era. The next legislature will effectually put a quietus upon all chattel mortgage loaning in this state and it may be just as well, as it will merely shorten the length of the victim's string, The real danger is that the real estate and per sonal security legislation may be made so drastic as to drive capital out of the state. David City Press. . The editor of the Polk County Demo crat, says the David City Tribune, asks the question: "How does the Tribune know that the present treasurer of Polk county gets 4 per cent for the use of the surplus money of the county?" The answer is this, because one of the bank ers who usee the money and has some of it on deposit has said that 4 per cent was the amount which he had to pay. The Tribune does not ask that the legislature pass a law prohibiting the county treasurers from depositing in a bank. It simply desires that the county commissioners at their annual meetings may be allowed to designate the bank or bankers in which it may be deposited and decide that part after receiving bids from all the responsible bankers in the county. In this way quite a sum might be saved to the people and the tax pay- era thereby get the benefit of their own money on deposit with banks. This would prevent quite a war in politics at every biennial election when a treasurer is to be elected. . The laws of Nebraska fix the rate of toll to be taken by grist mills, but it is evaded by the pools, as usual. A Co lumbus friend of the farmer suggests that here is work for the next legisla ture. Let the next legislature make any exchange or transfer to be held as toll and give the farmer redress and damage any time within two years from the transaction. This would make it harder to evade the law. Then let it be made a conspiracy to rob to go into a pool to raise the price of any article, and a com mon action by parties be held as prima facie evidence of such conspiracy. Monroe Looking Glass. So far as the Tribune has been able to learn, there is law enough on our statute books in relation to the much talked question of assessments. It seems that the last session of the legislature passed a law requiring that each and every as sessor should return property at its full value and a penalty was fixed for its violation. There does not seem to have been but one county, however, which complied with the law. One of the worst advertisements which the state has had daring the entire period of its existence is the publication of the fact that assessors return land at $6 per acre and no one abroad who has not been in Nebraska is apt to consider the fact that such land is worth five times that amount. Furthermore taxes on the face of the returns appear to be in the neigh borhood of 10 per cent, when in fact they only amount to about 2 per cent on the valuation. The statesman who will do something to bring about a change in this particular, will be considered a pub lic benefactor. David City Tribune. For the incoming farmer legislature to appropriate $100,000 for the relief of our distressed people in the western drouth stricken counties, would be the proper thing to do. Ulysses Dispatch. . We give, below, an abstract of a letter from a gentleman at Central City, in regard-to a phase of legislation that is of more man usual interest to the cities and towns of the state. There is no doubt but publio opinion in the rural districts is just about as indicated by the paragraph: Two matters are apparently settled by the recent election first, the license policy will be indefinitely continued; second, the people have decided that class legislation must be blotted oat in Nebraska. Things to be attended to this winter the amending of the Slo cum law. As the law now stands the license fees all go into the treasuries of the cities and towns, while the expense of the prosecution of saloon criminals is paid by the county at large. This is the worst kind of legislation. It discrimin ates directly in favor of the people of the towns, and directly against the farming community. The fair thing to do would be to amend the license law that all money derived from saloon license should go into county treasuries where it inures equally to tho benefit of all the people, so that those who bear the burdens of government shall participate also in its benefits. Suppose that money waa equally divided between all the schools of the county in proportion to school population instead of a few schools in the towns? Then all the peo ple in Nebraska would be benefited equally, and one more piece of class leg islation would be knocked out. Such a law would distribute about a million of dollars among the country schools of the state, which now goes into the school fund of the towns and cities. Is thero any reason on earth why the farmer should voluntarily give a million of dol lars to the cities and towns? The towns of Nebraska are not infants, that they need to be protected at the expense of the country. The independent party of this state has received no favors from the cities. In fact Omaha has used the most vile and disgraceful tactics to de feat Gov. Powers and the independent ticket I don't want the farmers to de mand anything that is not justly due them; but I do want them to have every right to which they are justly entitled. The proposed law would be just and it would be tremendously popular. It would tend to cement and strengthen the iudopendont party, and there is not an independent voter in the state who would not favor the measure." Hicrocona. Cold wave and a hot fire. John McGill is able to be out again, after a sovere attack of typhoid fever. Farmers' club met at the residence of A. C. Picket, last Friday, and had a very interesting meeting, also a good dinner was served. Johnnie Pittman, who has been sick for several weeks with pneumonia, has not yet fully recovered. Will Lockhart is breaking his team of colts. A. W. Clark was a Columbus visitor Saturday. A surprise party was to be held at the residence of J. H.

Several young men were enlisted the first of the month and the teacher, Mr. Ward, was correspondingly happy. While on the way to school last Wed nesday morning- Bena Boneman discov ered a team and buggy standing in Louie Schreiber's corn field, which fact was reported to Mr. Schreiber and the horses taken into the stable. Attached to the whip-socket in the buggy was a postal card bearing the following inscription in lead pencil: "Any one finding this team may know they belong at Ceresca, Saun ders Co., Nebr." There was nothing in the buggy to furnish any clue as to who the driver was, as no signature was on the card. Later. The rig proved to be a stolen one and the owner came for it Friday evening. Now is the time while the weather is growing colder, to examine that pit which contains about one bushel and a half of seed potatoes (all we have) and see that the pigs have not rooted air holes in the covering. Heap on four inches more of dirt, and as the freezing gets harder put a liberal supply of stable manure over the whole; you can't afford to loose those potatoes this winter. A neighbor farmer came to us Thurs day morning and said he had made ar rangements to sell his fat hogs today, but they did not come home last night, all of which shows, when our corn cribs are empty, it is uncertain what day we can sell. Bob Johnson, brother to our Tom, re turned from Schuyler Wednesday. He has been stopping since October. Sboats and lean hogs are seen running at large in every direction, all on the list of root hog or die.
