It takes newspapers to make a city

each other last Saturday with all kinds
of jpet names and numerous body blows.

At the meeting of the school board
Monday night, seven bids were filled for
furnishing material Tor heating and ven
tilation pf the new school house. The
I board meet this Tuesday evening to
consider bids for the erection of the
building.;. A-number of bidders are al
ready in the city, and more are expected.
It is thought there will be no-less than
twenty bidders present. So far as we.
can learn, the opinion seems prevalent
that the bids will all exceed the amount
implied in the bonds, and .that either
funds must be drawn from another
.source or- the- plans and specifications
changed, ine -meeting may make some
developments.
The semi-annual statements of the
county treasurers of Nebraska are being
made all around the sky near and far.
We note that our near neighbor, Madi:
son county, has a balance on hand of
$68,051.64, after disbursing 893,565.17.
The collections were 8104,34.45. Among
theBe there were excess of fees from
County Clerk- Heilman $393.68; excess
of fees from County Treasurer Wilde
$766.37; interest from banks $866.12.
Cheyenne county has a balance on hand
of $7,980.06, having received 837,148.50.
The district schools are entitled to $4,-
711.31 of the balance on hand, and the f
treasurer occupies a page and a quarter
of the Sidney Telegraph to set forth the
particulars of account with, the 149 dis- f
tricts.
Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Wells went to
Omaha this week to remain for several
weeks. They have struck a very novel
and convenient plan for seeing the ex
position in its entirety. They have- ar
ranged with Mr. and Mrs. Gates, of
Omaha, to exchange residences for a
Bbort time, each family using the other's
house and household effects. Mr. and I
Mrs. Gates doubtless consent to the ar
rangement for the pleasure of enjoying
what they would term a sojourn in the
country, but we who think Schuyler
quite a city will naturally resent any'
reference to its being less -important
than Omaha. However, we welcome
Mr. and Mrs. Gates if their stay is but
brief, and wish them a pleasant time
while here. Schuyler Quill.
We are informed that about a dozen
pop committeemen met at the Argus
office Saturday of last week and had
what they called a good time. Sheriff
Byrnes had provided a five gallon keg 6f
lemonade and a box of American cigars.
During the afternoon several of the bet
ter class of democrats called in to sample
their goods, exchange viewB and learn
how to conduct meetings of this kind;
and behold how good it was to see
brethren dwell together in unity. They
agreed to meet at Humphrey the 30th of
this month, as they learned that the re
publicans and democrats meet here on
that date, and these aforesaid democrats
claimed it would raise the moral aver
age of the three crowds from 47 to 53
per cent to have the pops here on that
day. Platte County Democrat.
The editor of the Leigh' World took
a drive into the Bobeet and Neboville
country, Platte county) t he"ot he t day, vis
iting IL G. Leuschen, postmaster at"
Boheet, Rudolph "Wurdeman, the cream
ery, etc. He says it was "like a glad
sweet song to tear away from the cease
less rounds of toil, and immure one's
self for a few hours among the golden
fields of grain and herds of lowing kine.
There are many fine farms down that
way and the good people treat you roy
ally." All of which is true not only of
that portion of Platte county, but
measurably so of all parts. In fact
there are many sections ot Nebraska,
where the industry and' intelligence, of
its land-owners have changed the so
called wilderness' to the fields of gold
en .'grain, .the .-beautiful orchards, the
dense, forests, the- rich pastures,, the
prosperous cities of our great -.commonwealth.

trusty horse, evidently,. for he left him
standing untied wa noticed that he
drove up. to a post at the sidewalk. Did J
he think-that the. "suggestion" was
enough to 'keep the horse where he
placed him? We "happened to see that
man 'get into his rig again, and' we
noticed, this time that his horse had no
linds at his eyes if they, were made a
little above and projecting in front, like
the front of a cap, it . wouldn't be so bad
as the blinders. He didn't'say a word
either, to his horse, but he. slapped the
ends of the lines over his own shoulders
as though he was chasing the flies off
himself. The old horse knew what was
meant, however, and speeded his gait
I The driver was not satisfied, and. we
looked to see the horse get a slap from
the lines, but he didn't. The slap went
the same direction as before, with added
vigor; the horse knew was doubtless
thankful that he had a kind master, and
good-nataredly put his energy into his
lege and waa aoon out of sight Our

Exhibit of Live Stock.
One of the memorable features of the
Trans-Mississippi Exposition will be
the exhibition of live stock September
19 to October 20. The $50,000 prize
money offered will certainly bring out a
host of contestants
There are six classes: Cattle, horses,
and mules, hogs, sheep, fat stock and
poultry.
The poultry exhibit will be first Sep
tember 19-30. The fat. stock will be
shown October13 20.
J. B. Dinsmore, commissioner of live
stock, states that the. correspondence
received from intending -exhibitors is
far larger in advance of the date for the
closing of entries than- it was' at the
Columbian Exposition at Chicago. If
Mr.'Dmsmore's .expectations are fulfilled
the exhibition of live. stock at Umaha
will be 'one of. the finest ever given in,
the country.

We are of coarse not authorized to
speak for sure- in the matter, but we
havd good reason 'to believe that B.P-
Duffy ia a candidate, for district' judge,-
subject to a nomination by the .democ-
racy of this judicial district . r
As we see it; there would be no show,
whatever! lor the judge in case of fusion
of the populists and the' democrats, be
cause in that event .there would hardly
be a possibility that the judge could .be-
nominated. ' .
In.case of three candidates in the field,
the -democrat would have a pretty fair.
show of election, all things being equal.

Camp Mekkttt,Sas Fkaxosco, )
July 17, 1898.
Frank -Turner writes that he has npt
seen or heard a -thing of Allen Slem-
mona, who passed through Columbus
with some fourteen recruits for San
Francisco.
The Nebraska recruits are gradually
getting equipped. We have our canvas
i.uniforms, and a sight they are. They
are an ice cream suit, with the exception
of the fit. The object doubtless in mak
ing them is comfort, not style. They
are on the overall style.
CoL Burnett of the Fourth Pennsyl
vania had us go through our drill exer
cises the other day, and when he left,
told Captain Kilian that the work of
his boys was excellent, and that "no
other company of recruits could come
anywhere near his." He had inspected
all the other companies of recruits be
fore enrs.
We are, all. working bard and so is'
.our captain' in spite of the fact that he
has had a sore throat -'and been under
the weather since our arrival here.
. Last evening we received our new
rifles, and they are beauties. In a few
days we will be ready ta take the field,
-and if we don't help Uncle "Sam lick the
Spaniards good' and plenty, it will not
be our fault .
There are. now only, two of our boys
in the hospital, Corporal Van Over of
Auburn and Private Oxier of Falls'City,
the former afflicted with pneumonia, and
th'e latter with typhoid fever, but both
are improving rapidly. They "are not in
the field hospital but are at the -big
French hospital, jnst a block orso from
where we are. cam.ped ' We have been
.very fortunate so far, as our regiment
has lost but two men.
The Chronicle of yesterday announced
"three more deaths at Camp- Merritt,
five deaths the last thirty-six hours, and
making atotal of over twenty'-since the
establishment of. the encampment .on
the wind-swept and .undained sand.
lots. The cold ocean Breezes and' the.
earlier wet weather, together with the
damp 'fogs at. night, have combined in
causing colds, which in-many cases have
developed into affectipns of throats and
lungs. More than half the deaths have
been from .pneumonia."
The San Francisco board of trade
have taken up the matter, and have
petitioned President McKinley, setting
.forth the fact that at Camp Merritt
there have been 6,000 men continuously
encamped upon forty acres for eight
Weeks; that the sand is thoroughly
saturated with 'sewage and drainage;
that a New York regiment just arrived
would not accept quarters there, and
thatif the president will authorize the
expenditure, the board of trade will
undertake in a very short time to make,
ready the PfesidiO'Where there are 1,540
acres available for-good camping quart
era. .
The 106 recruits were asked to name
their preference of company, and among
them, seventy-five selected Co. K., but
as Captain Kilian needs only twenty-live
men to recruit his company, there will
be fifty disappointed ones.
Our boys are all healthy and strong
and camp life seems to agree with them.
All the Columbus boys are well and
hearty, and' Bend' their regards to friends
at home.
We are going to sail for the Philippines
sure but aa'to the, time no one in camp
knows.. As we are recruko.for the First
Neb. volunteer regiment we-will go to
fill up the different companiesto which
we have, been assigned, and in all prob
ability will sail in the-near future.

A special telegram N. Y. World cable
gram via Hong Kong July 21, from
Manila July 18, said, that the China ar
rived Saturday and the- Senator, Colon
and Zealandia'Sunday.
They had a fine trip and the health of
the troops was excellent. Four deaths
occurred. Lieutenant LaZalle, Eight
eenth infantry, regulars, died Jnly 12
and was buried -Sunday afternoon at
Cavite fort with full military honors.
Private Maddoxt Eighteenth infantry,
Bandsman Wise ot the First Colorado,
and Sergeant Geddea of- the First Ne
braska were given a sea burial.
On the Fourth of July the China re
discovered the lost- Wakes island. Its
location has been in dispute heretofore.
A strong landing party under the per
sonal command of Greene went .ashore.
The mapped observation shows its loca
tion to be latitude 19:15 north, and lon
gitude 61:63 east. They found the
island three miles long aod not twenty
five, as reported. Possession was takerr
and the American, flag: hoisted. A rec
ord of possession' was placed in a box
and covered with stone. There is a fine
t harbor hut coral reef outside. There is
no trace of human beings, as the island
has not been inhabited, for sixty years.
Troops on the 'second transports will
probably be landed at Paranaque and
encamp near the first battalion of- Cali
fornians, who went oyer Friday.
The Japanese warship Na&iawa arriv
ed today, bearing, the first news of
Sampson's victory. Admiral Dewey had
all of the 'ships of the fleet notified.
Cheering began immediately and -lasted"
.all the afternoon.- . .' .
There is great rejoicing from Admiral
Dewey down, also ashore among the
troops? . There is a 'feeling of relief at
the return of the Spanish fleet from
Cadiz, though the belief is general that
the victory, would be onrs'should they
arrive. All are ready now for the word
to 'advance on-Manila.
