Political nettators hnvo , for Uiroo years or
moro sought to Injure the crodlt ot Netiriwlta
by gross misrepresentation of the tnortcaifO
doht of her land owners. The thctna has af
forded the populist stump orator nnd orlltor
an olTccllvo mean ? of catcning ttio former
vote nnd has been carried to such length n- >
to demand the intention of the republican
proas.

pontedly shown from the records of every

The cultnluiitiuK ooltit was roaultcd when
It was assorted positively nnd often that the
mortgage Indebu-itticsi resting on the farm
lands In Nebraska was not lft < s than $150.-
OOO.UOO. That was in March , 18SO.
As a partial result of all this
agitation , and olllclal investigation
was ordered and It , is known beyond question
orqulbolo that- nine months after the bold
{ Assertion that our fnrms wore mortiragnd for
f I.WUOWl , ( ) ) ) , iho actual amount ot indebted
ness covorine Nabrusim lands , Including
' 'town property , was less than J'l,000,0l ) > 0 , and
Judging from the increase slice ascertained
the u mount of Uils debt in Alnrch , ISS'.i ' , was
not moro timn $87.000.000. At this latter
[ , date no statistics were ofllctally compiled Oy
means of which the amount of debt could bo
determined. Hut wo now ECO that the
llguros advanced by dtstrcss-duntors were us
'shown ibove , almost twice iu larco as the
'truo ones.
Statistics are n dry muss , and it scorns
strange sometimes that wo should bo ever
lastingly followinc the example of the unique
mud Immortal Oliver Twist , by calling for
"raoro. " Still in llcures thta-o nro facts.
nnd a llttlo patience , perseverance and
honesty of purpose In stuaying tbo tables

bids for navlng with ( Jolor.ido sandstone the

alley from N to O streets , between Twenty-
sixlli street and Railroad avenue , ana U

Both contracts will bo awarded Monday
evening , October , ! ii , und it is the intention
lo have the work pushed and the ; pavement ,

Chairman Wood will advertmo far bids la
a few days for tbo piving of TJ street from
Twenty-fourth to Twonty-sovoath streets ,
with vilriilcd brick on u sand base. Graders
are now at work lowering the grade on that
street. To bring the street to grade will re
quire considerable of a cut from Twonty-

the Twenty-fifth street intersection a cut , of
six feet is necessary to bring llio street to
grudo nt thut point.
The paving of L street and the alleys will
probably complete the Imnrovomonts In tuis

The great si/.o of Iho oncino can bo
niclurcti from thu folUnvinc Uosci'iption :
Total weight of the machine alone ia
M5,00n pounds , or sovonty-two and ono-
Itivlf tuns. When complete with thu ton-
dur and ready for Bervico , combined
woighl ot all is 1124,1100 pounds , or lit !
ton . Th'iro htis never boon a loconio *
tlvo constructed on four drivers which
is us huiivy as this one , thuro boiny
15.000 pounds over each pair of drivers.
The driving wheels are thb-largest
ever built for locomotives in this coun
try and are 7 foot , or 84 Inches , in diiun-
cler. The boiler pressure ia 200 pounds
and the compound principle is of the
two-cylindor type. The liOO-pound pros-
sti'-o has ulreudy been maintained with
surprising ease on the tritila.
ltlmi'4t l.ouniniitlvo Cylinder on Kecnril.
The cylinders are respectively 1J ! ) and
31 inches in diameter and the high
pressure cylinder being of cou so tlio
situtllor , and the low pressure of the
biggest locomotive cylinder over con
structed. The pistons of both cylinders
have a 28-inch stroke and ; imong the
many advantages possessed by tlio' en
gine is ono enabling the engineer to
start the train with stoain from the low-
pressure cylinder. The high pressure
cylinder is on the loft side of the ma
chine nii'l steam generated passes
through it , exhausts into the low pres
sure cylinder nnd is then blown oil.
The boiler is 5 fcot in diameter and 27
fcot long. The ilro-box is as largo in
proportion , being 0 feet long and 40
inches wide , inside grate measurement.
Tlio height to the top of the cab is 14
feet : to the top of the stuck , 15 foot ; the
distance from the bottom of the boiler
to the r.iil is 0 } foot , so that a m.in ever
six feet tall could walk under the boiler.
In the construction of locomotives the
slide valves are usually placed bu top of
the cylinder. In this engine they are
between them , and are piston valves 12 }
inches in diameter. The forward wheels
are 42 inches in diameter , and iu'o steel
tire'd , with wrought iron centers.
The locomotive is such a striking ma
chine in so many ways that it is dillicult
to tell wherein lies the most interesting
point. The running board is 'of
wrought iron , is the same height on
tlio engine that it is on the tender , is
built in a most peculiar fashion , and'in
the front begins below the cylinders ,
forming an apron in front of them.
This point is expected to accomplish
line results by protecting the cylinders ,
rods and crossheads from the cold
winds and the resistance offered by
rushing through the atmosphere 'at
high speed , and preserve tlio power ol
the steam for a longer time than it
could bo when tlio cylinder heads were
exposed to the air. Tlio locomotive
has a pressed steel front in place of the
usual cttstiron front , which Is strength
ened by ono central support. Another
feature is the placing of the injector
pipe and the bund rail on ono bntcuot.
Tlio new application of Iho brakes is
another departure from the uniform
style. The brake cylinder Is under the
cib : and at the back of it , while the
brakes are suspended in front of ouch oi
the four driving wheels. In the region
of the piston valvas there is another de
parture. The whole crosshend , instead
of being supported by an upper and
lower bar , hangs from an uppot
guide , This saves space nnd gives the
rods freer action.
Another udviuitnat of the brontt run
ning board is Unit it makes a wide way
for the engineer or liremuu logo mount
the engine- while running , if necessary.
The sanding arrangement is- worked
with compressed air by covered valves ,
The cvllndor cocks are also worked b\
compressed air , and the engineer hut
full power to start his train by a slmpk
twist of his wrist instead of taking r
long , hard pull at the lever. This , Idot
is entirely now.
There is another great advantage
The engine trucks have a sllding-sldc
motion of one and ono-httlf Inches , in
well as a central motion , and. whili
under high speed , can gostraigh
around a curve while tho-whcojs , an
conforming to the irr.ogularity , power
ful springs bringing the oiigi ire "into tin
direct lines as soon as straight road i
a. roachod. Tills will , itis estimated
save a tremendous amount of wc r < un <
tear on the m ichlnory and enable tin
onglno to round curves at
10 speed , reducing the danger- such
performance to a minimum ,

mont of holler iron. Tim engine was
rebuilt mid made as good as now , but
mi engineer could bo found to run it
ir.oro than ono trip. It was soon
whispered nbotit that that it was
iinnntod ; that iho heartless fireman
had an unpleasant habit of ap
pearing on the tender with pick
and shovel and insisting on Hrlng up.
Ono night an engineer and his liroman
deserted the locomotive while out on a
run and the conductor attempted to
bring the train in. He was not nfrald
of ghosts , not ho ! Hut ho sidetracked
at Iho lirst opportunity and waited
until daylight before completing the
run. Ho told mo tint the ghost was no
joke , thut every time the furnace door
was thrown open the headless appara-
lion entered the cab bearing a shadowy
Keoop ot coal. For a month the engine
laid in the shop. Then an engineer ,
who was compelled to either lake it outer
or lese his place , mounted it. lluforo ho
had run a dozen miles it went through a
culvert , wrecked the train and killed
nine people. It wan never rebuilt. "
