When tbo Nebraska Central railroad bond proposition gees before the volets of Douglas county at tbo election to bo hold May 31 , it Vrlll not go single-handed and alone , but will bo accompanied by nt least two ether propo- iltlons. Tbo county commissioners decided upon this matter at tbo session which was bold yesterday afternoon. Quo of lie additional propositions is to tote bonds tor paving country roads. This vao brought before tbo beard by A resolution wllca wa.i adopted by a uimnlmous voto. The resolution provides that at the special flection to bo held on May at the proposition to Issue and sell bonds of the county of Douglas to the amount of $150,000 to aid in tbo portnanunl Improvement of the public highways shall bo submitted. The uiouoy derived from tbo sale of the bond * shall all be expended outside of the corporate limits of Omuha and South Omaha , and no portion of It shall bo expended In grading any high way or in tonstructing or repairing bridges , but shall bo uaod exclusively for permanent curfnio Improvements. Thu bonds ro to bo Issued in denominations of 1,000 each , bear ing date July 1 , IS'J. , duo and payable twenty years after date nud drawing Inter est at the rate of 4 } per cent | > er annum , payable scml-auuunlly , on July 1 and Janu ary 1 of each year , both Interest nad princi pal bring payable at the fiscal agency of Ne braska in the city of Now York. The bonds cannot bo sold for less than par. Each year the county commissioners shall levy a tax to pay thu interest on the bonds , ana cotntnano- Ing tbo tenth year prior to their maturity a tax shall bo levied on all cf the taxable prop erty in Douglas county and continued annu ally thereafter from 'year lo year until a lnklng fund slioll bavo been obtained aufti- clont to pay the bonds whim they mature. Tlicro was no discussion over tbo resolu tion and us soon as the clerk Uad announced tbo vote on the adoption Clmlrmain Timmo was happy , as it was his pel scheme. l Correct tlin Title. Following this was n plan to cure the de fect ui the title to the poor farm or Douglas addition lots. At the special election ttio voters will again contlrtn the sale by tbo bal- lotn wnlcti they will cast. The proposition rocitcs that the locality of the sale of the lots hail been questioned , ow- IngUo the fact that two-thirds of all the votes cast at the election held November 2 , I8SO , wore not in favor of the halo. To cure the defect the commissioners decided to r < j- aubinlt thu question at thu special election to bo hold May 31. It this carries at the polls , then the com.ty commissioner ! ] shall bavo authority to execute quit claim deeds to all purchasers of lots who bought nt the public sale held in April , IbST. In nil cases where tbo lots so sold have been fully paid for according to the terms of that Ifllo , quit claim deeds shall bo executed by the county commissioners Immediately after the adoption of the question _ py tbo legal voters of Douglas county ; and in all cases whuro the lots bavo been paid for in part by ttio purchasers , und a portion of thu purchase price remains duo and unpaid , quitclaim deeds Hhall bo made aim delivered by the county commissioners upon the payment by the purchasers of the amount now remaining duo nnd unpaid , with interest according to the terms of sale nnd the uotcs and mort gages given by such purchasers. If two-thirds of the voters cast their bal lots In favor of tbo proposition , then tbo former sale shall bo legalized and ratified , but , it they do not 1'ien the poor farm muddle rhall remain In tbo same condition as at the present time. Will Dnfrml thoJActlons. Tbo board took action on the claims of the parties who bad repudiated their purchases of poor farm lots. These parties In their petitions askea that the county return the money that tboy paid when they bought the lots at the sale made In April , 1887. The parties wrote that they would sue If the money was not returned. Mr. Berlin said that there would bavo been no trouble about the lots if nti attorney who was hunting for business had not advised bringing suits. Jn homo states Mr. Uotlln stated tbat such action upon the part of an attorney would bo considered pettifogging , but ho did not know what it was considered in Ne braska. Ho intimated tbat tbo son-in-law of .one of tbo members of the district Judicial bench had been Instrumental in causing all of the trouble. A. resolution to reject all of tbo claims was adopted by a unanimous vote. There were a number of new claimants who bobbed up in petitions und asked that the county refund the money that they had paid on the purchase of lots in Douglas addi tion. The claims wore promptly rejected and the claimants told to go abca'd and got the money if they could. Then the commissioners took advantage of the absence of Mr. Paddock , who at this moment is some ulaco out on tha Pacific coast enjoying his annual Junket. When tbo board hold Its meeting last week Dr. Wilcox was retained as nimstant county physician , though it was shown tbat there was nothing for htm lo do , usulo from drawing his salary.

'men Mr. Ltcriln seconded the motion to adopt the resolution , remarking that ho had never voter ! contrary to law , out tnauy times had voted against bis ocst friends. Chairman Timmo said that be had no apol ogy to oiler. There was no necessity for the county physician having an assistant and that was wtiv ho voted to depose Dr. Wilcox. The resolution was adopted. For county advertising there was but ono bid and that was from Tin : lice Publishing company. This bid was opened and referred 10 tbo committee on Judiciary. M. D. Roche , secretary of tbo Soldiers Roliot association , asked for rooms in the tourt house. Mr. Utoiiborg stated that Hoc ho had taken possession of a room in the Basement without any authority from any person. Ho should have made the request Irst und then have taken possession after- Mifdd. The request was referred.

Nfbrn kn , Property , Will llritp a IlounllCnl Itur- \tst-Onn of the Mint I'roRrr l\o Western Towns K cr Mnrlrit. Of nil the western towns which nro making rapid strides into prominence and now endeavoring to attract atten tion of men socking profitable Invest ments , excellent business opportunities or healthy homes , there is none with such a wealth of natural resources na the "Niagara of the Plain1),1' thu city of Gothunbu"g , Nob. , which under the developing efforts of the Gothenburg Water Power and Investment company is destined to become a great distrib uting tnd manufacturing center. Or iginally a trading pluco on the Union Pacific railroad , settled by Swedes und Germans , it has within a few years be come a place of 1,000 people , with a number of business blocks , line homes , three banks , two Hour mills , ono elevator , public schools , etc Only a short time ago the Gothenburg Water Power and improvement com pany , composed of conservative business men"of high standing , such as L. Kvor- inghum , provident of the Columbia Na tional bank of Chicago , ox-Governor Tlmyor of Nebraska , K. L. Pillsbury , U. S. senator of Massachusetts , has ex pended 8000,000 in permanent improve ments and constructing the water power at this place. This is only the beginning - ginning of developing the city , whoso former growth was wholly duo to the rich agricultural country surrounding it. Located in the most fertile county of Dawi-on in central Nebraska , 250 milca west of Omaha , Gothenburg commands the trade of the rich country for a radius ol forty miles. It has a climnto unsurpassed and com mands first rank for hcathfulness. Its immense water power is ono of the most important factors on which to base an estimate of the future growth and importance of that city. Gothenburg has two sources of supply , one from the main Platte river , fed by the North Platte , extending into the Rocky mountains , and from the South Platte , llnding its ri o in the mountains of Colorado. The water power of Gothenburg is furnished by a canal from the Platte river. This canal is ten miles in length , and by it the water ib brought into the depressions on the blulTs within and near the city limits , forming lakes of great capacity. This extensive water power will make the place at an early day a great milling and manufacturing center , as a largo portion of the wheat of the northwest can bo laid down at the mills of Gothen burg as cheaply aa at Minneapolis. The enormous advantages 01 the place will invite manufacturers ol paper , cot ton , woolen gooils , of starch , o it meal , all grain products and manufactured goods of all descriptions , to locate at Gothenburg , Neb. , whore they can uioro profitably manufacture th.m any other other place within a radious of 000 miles. And they will come as the industries of the country are continually moving west , and as it is only natural for them to center at such an "advantageous point like Gothenburg. Its products ot raw material warrants the location of varied manufacturing in dustries in its locality. It ha ? , in fact , nearly every attraction for rustling business men and. laborers desiring homes in a healthful and rap idly growing country. it will become a great distributing point , by reason of extensive railro.ids now looking toward building to this coming manufacturin < r city. With the saving of raw ma'orial in many lines and freight in others , and a great country lying bpyond us on the west to supply , and with equal advan tages of the territory on the east , and the benelit of unlimited water power and railroad facilities there is no good reason why Gothenburg , Neb. , should not become the great manufacturing city of the west. This means a large increase in population and a consequent increase in real estate values , and early investors will reap largo profits in a short time. The Gothenburg Water Power and Improvement company has just com pleted at a great cost a canal ( with largo reservoirs flooding hundreds of acres ) , which has a capacity of U.oOO liorso power , making one of the finest water power stations in the United States , having a fall at the fetation of 5ii : foot , It has town lots and country lands which it wholly controls , and these are otforod at very low prices for a limited term to parties who wish to locate at once. Already extensive factories arc now under contract to move from the east which employ hundreds of skilled mechanics , which wil Inatur.tily add ono or more thousands to the population of Gothenburg , and many others are con sidering the question of moving their plants at once to Gothenburg. It is ottering special inducements in the form of free gift of power for a term of years to worthy manufacturing in dustries which will locate tlioro in 1802.
