Peter Phillips haa again brought
suit in district court against Lewis
Hahn, thia time for $L568.74. The Platte
Valley State Bank began business in
Bell wood, in the early 90s with a capital
of $30,000, half of which waa paid up.
Mr. Hahn owned five shares of the stock
valued at $100 each and waa elected a
director of the bank which office he held
at the time the bank waa cloeed on Jan
uary 28, 1902. The closure of the bank
waa due to the fraudulent work of the
Goulds who were the principal officers.
Many thousand dollars were on deposit
in the bank and only about five per cent
on the dollar waa paid to 'depositors.
Among the depositors waa Peter Phillips
who alleges he had about $L900 depos
ited there when the bank failed. He also
claims that had Hahn not signed the
published statement of the condition of
the bank shortly prior to its foreclosure,
be would not have deposited his money
there. It also appears that Hahn waa
tbe only one of the directors who signed
that particular statement. Phillips re
cently sued Hahn for about $1,900 and
received judgment for $300, and now he
comes with a suit of $1,568.74. It is very
difficult to predict the end, and it would
seem Mr. Hahn will have to stand for
tbe whole amount lost by depositors.
Tbe Fremont Tribune in its mention
of canal news prints the following which
we know will be read with interest by
the loyal friends of Mr. Babcock, who
are earnest in their enthusiasm of bis
energy and good judgment: "A rumor
drifts here from Columbus that some of
the men there who had money invested
in the Loup river scheme are blaming
H. E. Babcock for the failure of Colum-
bua to receive preference. Thia
preposterouo to the Fremont eanal
who do not conceive how Columbus
could have had a more persistent cham
pion than Mr. Babcock" Again the
Tribune says: "Fremont makes ite apol
ogise to Columbus snd iisswni that city
of ite moat diaringuished conaideratioa.
There beiug, at present st least, no una
of two great power canals in thia section
of Nehrankn aad Fremont having tha
better advantages waa under obligarioaa
to win in the spirited contest with ite
sinter city. But Fremont bega to ac
knowledge tha service Columbue haa
performed for it. When that place pre
sented complete surveys in New York in
ite bid for money to finance the enter-
Fremont wan forced to get a better
to meet the competition.
When the surveying was the more thor
oughly dona the greater advantage of
the Fremont project barama apparent.
It oast thia city $7,500 additional money
bnt it waa worth many times that. Co

Saturday morning for
Seventeen members of tbe Albion
High school, including Prof. Kindler,
came to Columbus last Friday to attend
the basket ball game played that evening
between the girls of the Albion and
Columbus High schools. The final score
of the game was 15 to a in favor of
Columbus. Although the result of the
game looks rather one-aided, both teams
worked hard to the end. At the close of
the first half, the score stood 4 to 4 and
everything indicated that Albion would
win but a change of one or two players
