There seems to bo a misunderstand
ing on the part of some who
thinks this grand reunion is only a
reunion of the G. A. R. Such is not
the case. It is held under G. A. R.
auspices but it is a rcuuion of all ex-
soldiers , eailors and marines and all
their wives , mothers , sisters , cousins ,
aunts and friends generally. All are
invited. The committee desires to call
especial attention to the fact that
a book has been opened at Wymans's
store , in Creighton Block , for the reg
istration of all persons who expect to
go to Central City during the week ,
and it is requested'that such persons
register as soon as possible , so that
ample preparations-may bo'mado for
the comfortable transportation and
care of everyone. Recister as soon
as you can , to-day or Monday.---

'HE ' FLORENCE DOT-OFF.
Gen. Bishop of the Omaha
and St. Paul Line to be
Here-Next Week.
Track Laying Proceeds a Mile
a Day.
There is a report , which apparently
comes from a reliable source , that
! on. Bishop will arrive in Omaha next
week , to look over the ground and de
cide as to building the Florence cut
off. This cut-off , if" it is made , will
begin about five mile * out of this city ,
and be six miles long. The work on
the proposed new line is very heavy
in places , but will save some heavy
grades now used , and will shorten the
SL Paul track between Sioux City and
Omaha some five miles. The surveys
for this line were made last spring. If
built it will net bo ready for use be
fore next spring.
There is now but about fifty-two
mils of track yet to complete the
St. Panl and Omaha line. The iron
for the north end has all arrived at
Sioux City excepting about fifteen car
loads. Most of it has been crossed
over to the Nebraska aide. At this
end the iron is arriving faster than it
can bo used. At the present rate the
track will alllDO d9wn .within the n'cxf
two weeks.
The tsioux City Journal says : The
track hying on the northern end of
the Omaha line , was fifteen miles out
from the Ponca road Thursday , and is
going down at the rate of nearly a
milo a day. The track laying from
the south end ha" passed Lyons.
Nearly all track remaining to bo laid
on the line is in the valleys of Middle
creek and the Logan , and will present
no difficulties.
The transfer boat from PlattsmouUi
is expected at this city about the 25th
hist.

THE FERRY FIGHT ,
Captain Porter Marshals His
Facts Against the U. P.
Statements ,
And Saya He is Good for Five
Years to Come.
'otho Editor of THE BBS.
In your issue of Monday evening
you give an interview with Superin-
; endant Havens of the TJ. P. rall-
joad , in which ho is very modest
but ' 'ho ' would
about going into print ,
say that the steps taken by the U. P.
had been occasioned by unfair treat-
m3nt from the ferrymen. He stated
that some time ago the company had
some circulars and handbills printed
and put up which were torn down.
They hlso had sign-boards put up at
louncil Blnfis which he says were
torn down and placed in a position to
direct travel to the boat instead of the
transfer. "
This is a plain accusation that the
ferrymen tore down his posters and
juide boards. The ferryman , the
writer of this , has lived in Nebraska
twenty-four years , , has never been cc-
used of , tried for , or convicted of ,
any prison crimes. This quasi charge
of Superintendent Havens' is base and
cowardly. The ferryman will say that
he never saw one of his posters till
the forenoon of the day the article
appeared , and that day his runner ,
Hank Man , refused to let him see one ,
but an emigrant gave him one. , .
As to Mr. Havens' sign boards , ho
_ nerer.directly or indirectly , by him-
"self or by proxy , touched or disturbed
ono of his guide boards ; neither does
he know of anyoiio who did , although
ho had hcarH that a guide board down
Broadway ( C. B. ) moro than a mile
from the basinets part of town had
been torn down.
Superintendent Havens' ' guide
boarda were a fraud , being painted
"ferry , " with a & r pointing to the
transfer , and I haii supposed that some
stranger , wishing to cross at the ferry ,
had been misled by this fraudulent
guide board , and when retracing his
steps had torn it dowiij as ho or any
other citizen should do. No supec-
visorshould permit BUch guide board
to stand on a public mad. Mr. Ha
vens has a guide board on Seventh
street , pointing to the ferry , within a
few hundred feet of where I live , urn'
it has never been disturbed , but ]
Bhall ask the city to abate it. Sliper
intondent Havens accuses mo of send
ing runners and taking travel ht any
price , The U ; P ; was lirst to send
out runncrj nd to cut rates. I never
have hid but ono runner and him only
a week. I found him too much of a
gentleman to compete with U. P. run
ners.
Footmen I crossed for ten cents , as
required by thb coiinty commission
ers and by the statelaw , and for the
information of Supt. Havens and \h
traveling public , see General Statutes
of Nebraska , page 389 , section 14 :
"It shall bo unlawful for any per
Son 6r persona ) ferry or transfer com
pany engaged in ferrying or transfer
ring persons across any river in this
state , or any river forming the boun
dary line thereof , to "charge , demander
or receive from any tootman or fee !
passenger moro than ten cents for
any such ferriage or transfer across
any of Said riversi"
Section 15. "If any person or per
sous or company engaged in the busi
ness aforesaid shall denjand , charge 01
teceivo" t greater eum tuau ten cenis
for such transfer , auch
person or per
sons or company shall incur a penalty
of ten dollars for such offienao , which
penalty may bo collected by civil oo
tion beft-ru a justice of the peace
whenever service of process can be
made ; oiie-half of the said penalty
shall bo for the use of the plaintiff 7a 7f
aiiy such action , and the other half [ f
shall bo paid to the county treasurer
and constitute a pare of the school ' 1
fund of said county. "
Supt. Havens intimates that Porter
is reinforced by the Undine , I think
Supt. Havens can tell who IB working
with the Ondtne. If he knows any
thing about it , ho knowsPorter is not
in with that steamer. Ho also says
"they have c'omo into our territory to
cmy off our trade , and we propose
now to carry the war into Africa.
The longest pole knocks the per
"
simmons.
Supt. Hivons makes a great flourish
about a poor man who is trying to
earn a living for his family by rUn-
ningaferry ; that the trade of the
great corporation is about to bo carried
away , and now he f rc osCa to carry
the War into his native country. Mr. dg
Havens threatens me with his long
pole in the persimmons hunLHo
may have heard of a great man that
once went round shedding tears that
there wefo no more worlds to con-
quere. He may be going round with
a very long polo and hnd a very light
crop of persimmons. Mr. Havens is
a largo fish in very shallow water ,
making a great commotion. This is
the first railroad that I over knew to
claim the ferry business. The B. &
M. R. R. at Plattamouth had a sign
painted and posted on their transfer
boats "No Ferry. "
I hope our merchants may reap the
advantage of the U. P. incendiarism
while they are trying to render ray
ferry property worthless , and get their
goods over'tho rivec at $2 per car.
Tuesday morning's Herald hadncard
his master bark the night.beforo and
know he vras wanted te throw dirt , so
ho raises bp canine howl , andby ( plain
couclusion " jitters the base and willful
falsehood : That Porter , in the night ,
converted a = TJ. P. fraud to his own
use. If the U. P. transfer hai BO
much the advantage and love of the
people why does it lead with runners
and in cutting rates , and keep all the
time trying to steal the name "ferry. "
Why not assume to bo what they are
a transfer.
Last April U. P. runners followed I
emigrants clear over to the east bank
of the river to boat " '
my , by-false "rep 'f
rescntations frightened the women
and chilcfre'n , and by promise of loir ,
rates took. th.em back to the transfer
and then'disregarded the rates prom
"
ised. O"he/rman , whoso" statement I
obtained on this side , "next morning ,
whom Lgffered to cross for § 1 60/they
took backt5the transfer and charced
him § 1.80. , - - _
When -I * 8tafced off my ground at
the foot of Farnham street the U. P. ,
at once torp up my .stakes' - andthrew
in a switch. When I come to put up
my Nebraskamast _ the U. P. warned
mo oft TE wentlo the division super
intendent n number of times to have
him plank their Farnham street cress-
ing , but he never would do so , and
when I would" throw in Binders and.
dirt to cross''ho , would throw .it out.
I petitioned the city council to require L |
the company ( oplank their crosslng" , |
but the petition was referred and
nsver reported. Last May I peti
tioned again. The petition was TO-
f erred to the committee on streets and
grade ? . Councilman Stephensgn-got
City Attorney Manderson to write a
scorching report-against- ferry , a
matter not under consideration. , The
U. P. has not planked the crossing
yet. _ , . ; , - - . , - - - ,
A few nights after the 'Key West'l
went down my ferry boat waa tied to
. .
-
-r
I .w - *
tb.B bank with two bow Hnea , one
stern line and a traveller line. In the
night some one threw off all four
lines and sent the boat adrift. I do
make insinuation * date
not wish to any
to who did It , but it was certainly ono
who wished to destroy the ferry.
The U. P. has harrassed and an
noyed me at every , turn with the
Incm of incendiary
meanest and lowest manner
diary competition I ever met in my
life. With no regard for the truth
themselves they hire meu of that class
tu uC , the work ,
In running this ferry I have scrupu-
louslw refrained from any false state
ment"or act against the U. P. com-
panvj knowing that sooner or later
they would attempt to crueh me out ,
and now to excflse themselves tot try
ing to tender vaWeles's and destroy
my ferry property , they get Up' these
falie statements , not one of which as
regards myself is true.
If the people will give me a small
ihare of the business at one-quarter
: he old rates of the transfer I will
assure them that for the next five
fears ferriage will be held at present
- ates , if this great African warrior so
wills it. JAS. R. POKTER.
