THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : FEIDAY SEPTEMBER 30 , 1881 BLAIR , The Many Things it Has an the Few it Wants. Beautiful Stretches of Country Thereabouts , Special Corrc ] iomlenco to TIIK HR , BLAIH , September 28. Some people plo are inclined to criticise corrcs ' pondonts by saying that their letter nro pictures in which the glowing nn glittering colors nro displayed while the dark side is hidden fron view. Well , there is , perhaps , som truth in this , but suppose the scene nil sunlight nnd glory , and there i not a cloud in the nky , shall the dark bo put in to please the misanthropic I think not. Truth | should nlono guide the pencil of the wander ing gleaner of items. is ono of those towns of which nothing can bo said that is not to her advant age. At least , nothing of importance. Once she had not a passable hotel and I was blnmod for stating the fact , and now , although she has ono hotel that is kept in first class style , yet she needs n good hotel building just as much as ever. Llair ought , and probably will have , n bridge across the Missouri. And now 1 am forced to stop criticising for want of any shadow of an excuse for criticism , but it is with joy that I take the bright colors , for they alone are needed if Blair is to bo painted. ' EN IIOUTE. As I approached the city traveling north , I passed the best corn-fields that I have BOOH in Nebraska. At least 80 bushels to the acre will bo the product from sonio of the farms in the vicinity of Blair. At one place wo found a prairie fire just started , but the train was stop * pod , and the employes of the road put it out in a few moments thus naving perhaps thousands of dollars. 11EAUTY. The finest stretch of Nebraska scenery traversed by rail that between Omaha and Blair , and where the glories of autumn are spread over the landscape the views is enchanting. Ravines that dart in and out among the blull's liavu now their sides covered with a foilago that presents f every hue of the rainbow. Broad valleys , extending for miles on either hand , with n surplus of cereals and fruits that niako glad the heart of the husbandman. Vast hurds of cattle grazing on the hillsides and in the dells among the blull'a. Fine farm houses , with barns , sheds , sta bles , orchards and gardens. In short a land that ( lows with sorghum and buttermilk the very choicest garden spot of Nebraska where time has brought out all the advantages of the 'country. . TJIE UAILUOAI ) . Since the now management has stepped into the property of the late Omaha & Northwestern railroad they have used up a good share of the alphabet in renaming their road , but they have also used up a great deal of money in making a first-class readout out of the ancient trail , with its ono MB ' old locomotive that was broken down * half the time and attached for debt . the other half. Many readers will remember borrowing that engine - gino from the sheriff to haul an excursion car to Ft. Oalhoun. Now bridges , culverts and miles of entirely now track have been construct ed. The wheezy old suporanuatod locomotive has been sold to the iunx dealer _ nnd half a dozen now ones have taken its place , and " THE DEPOTS my , how they shine ! bran now , > with some architectural ideas used in their construction and the paint is not a dirty rod , In fact , it is a beautiful cream color.

Blair , the offspring of John I. ' Blatr , became a town in 1809 , and at . its birth Guming City and DoSoto sickened and died. It was a case of the survival of the fittest.

Church and N. ] J. Warner. The con vention was harmonious throughout , and the above delegates wore elected by a unanimous vote. Judge Church offered the following resolutions , which were adopted by a rising vote : Whereas , James Abram Oarflpld , the martyred president of the United States , in the first year of his high calling , in the midst of universal hope and encouragement of the nation already inspired by his abilities , his wise statesmanship , his exalted pitri- otiam , and his fair nnd just ad ministration of government af fairs , which had silenced party strife , hushed sectional clamor by his honest efforts , the courage of his convictions and his noble purpose to promote the interests and consider the rights and liberties of the entire people , has been stricken down by the hand of an as sassin , and after long , long weeks of intense nnd lingering pnin nnd Buflbr- ing , has boon removed by death ; there fore , bo it Resolved , by the republicans of Lincoln county in convention assem bled , that ns the representatives of the sentiments nnd interests of the republicans Of tliia county , wo join with patriots und good citizens every where , in expressing our grief nnd sorrow in the presence of _ this , our rent national calamity ; that wo tender - dor the devoted and heroic wife , the iiHliotod children nnd venerable moth- ur of our honored and beloved presi dent , our heartfelt sympathies in the loss of a devoted husband , nflbction- Uo parent , faithful son and wise and onsciontious rulor.

GOULD. Die Beginning of a Wall Street Career that I * Liliely to bo Watched with Interest. proni the New York Sun , Among the defendants in the first luit arising from the corner in Hanni- al & St. Joseph common stock is 3oorge J. Gould. Ho ia sued as n nombcr of the firm of W. E. Connor t Co. , brokers for A. L. Hopkins , vho is short of COO shares of the cor- lorod stock. His position as a do- ondant is noteworthy , because ho s the oldest son ot Air. Jay 3ould and because ho is probably .ho youngest man who has over boon party to a transaction of the magni tude of the Hannibal and St. Joseph ornor. Hjs connection with it , how- jver , is to a largo extent purely acoi- lontal , as his position in the street yas not defined until two weeks ago , ind after the cornering pool had got voll about its business. At that time 10 became a member of the firm of W. E. Connor & Co. , and ns such bo- amo a broker for Mr. Hopkins , whoso iccount had previously boon given to member of the firm. Young Mr. Gould is undoubtedly .ho youngest man wlio Iras , or hus hud 'or many yours , a recognized position .n the street. Ho had barely at tained Jiia majority when his father made him n partner in n firm of which the other members were his own con fidential broken , W. E. Connor , and liis-private secretary , G..P , Morosini. Mr. Jay Gould contributed to the capital of the firm , in behalf of his son , the sum of $500- 000. The capital invested by the at her partners is not stated , but from their position and the fortunes it is presumed they have accumulated by their connection with Mr. Gould , it is ustimated that they contributed about 9250,000 each , making the capital of the firm § 1,000,000. This ia an un usual capital for a eimplo brokerage house , in which membership in the stool ; exchange and the attendant credit supply to n great extent the capital that would bo required in or dinary commercial business , it is understood that the now firm does not intend to transact a general busi ness that is , to take accounts aa commission linns do but that its business will bo confined to orders from Mr , Gould. In spite of the exclusive business which the firm will do , the junior partner , Mr , George J. Gould , is a portion in whom the atrcbt naturally takes a very considerable interest , The street knows little of him , but believes' that it is likely to know much , In personal appearance ho is prepossessing , hardly moro than n boy in looks , but moro than a boy in bus- ness. Ho is of about the average lioight , alondcr , yet muscular , His complexion is swarthy , his 'mir and promising mustache nro black , and his oyeu , like ilia father's , nro dark nnd penetrating. Like hi father , ho is quiet nnd reticent ; bu in the company of his friends ho i full of life nnd boyish spirits. 11 has been educated privately nnd thor oughly nnd , aa to business experience has traveled extensively with his father or both through this country nn abroad , nnd has spoilt the last tvr years in his father's oflicc. HOOPER. What Has Been Douo There in Six Years. The Thing That it Yet Re quires. Corrcipotulcnccof TIIR DPK , HOOPEH , Nob. , Sept. 29. Hoopoi is located on the bank of the bcauti ful Elkhorn river , thirteen miles north of Fremont , and is now some six years old , with about 350 well-to do people. The universal complain ot high water lost spring was heart hero , but. no particular damage to the town was done , ns it is situntct on the "second bench" of the tortilo and picturesque Elkhorn valloy. Ovoi seventy car loads of lumber have boon sold from the yards of Hooper for building purposes in the country , aside from the town improvements. This is prima facia evidence that the 'armors of this valley nro getting xbovo board or rather under board , instead of under sod shelter. At present there nra but live or six stores nnd the necessary shoos , but there is plenty of room for moro. From 6,000 to 0,000 pounds of freight is laid down hero daily , and a monthly record of 100 cars of grain shipped tor the past summer. Largo quantities of grain are shipped from this point to Denver nnd other west ern markets. Hooper has also a neat iittlo brick church nnd ono of the fin est largo brick school houses ono usually meets , located upon the sum mit of the bluff immediately south of .own , overlooking the entire country 'or miles around and surrounded with a young grove which makes the place very attractive. A brick yard hero has made and told over seven hundred thousand jrick the past summer. Many "aro shipped away. An nmatour brass band lately orgaiv zed , attended the public services held icro on the 2 < ! th itist. ; undertho lead ership of Rol Davis , they did them- elves -honor by completely "h'llin ho bill. " WANT.- ) . * Hooper wants 11 good hotel and .1 ) ank. There is no doubt that among ho people that do business hero theri s moro ready wealth than is usually ound in towns of this size , owing to ho vast region of available farming ands now under n high state of culti vation in this vicinity. KAILUOAl ) acilitios are ample for the S.C. . & P. , laying a now depot and freight house , mvo drawn upwards of fifty-five car oads of fat stock from here to eastern markets this summer. Among the iixty-two registered scholars nttond- ng the schooj here is Miss Daisy Van 3uran ngod eight , formerly of Omaha , n care of Mies Agnes McDonald , irocoptor , who was awarded first prize ast Friday for drawing the bestmap of isia , among s'ovontcon competitors , rho faculty report the school dvancing rapidly. The post oflico las a registered letter and nonoy order department in charge f L. E. Peyton , Deputy , and report' d doing an increasing business. There s good water power all along the Elk- lorn river , nnd building a flouring mil in this town would tic a remunor- tivo investment. CROI'8. Corn is now full } ' matured and is ar better than usually found else- chore in the State , though not up to ast years standard but will "pan out" No. I quality. Wheat , ns usual , for liia year will not avoraco much ot a rep , but moro than enough for homo use. Oats nnd rye arc grown quite xtensivoly and fully the average yield VUH harvested this season. The crop f hay that has boon put up in this alloy in simply immense. Along the ino of road between Fremont and loonor nro several bundled acres in tnck , apparently enough to supply ntiro Kansas. In short , there is a great deal that s good here and hereabouts , and TUB JEK finds many udmireis among the oading public. For business review sue advertising olumns. ROVBU.
