Cass C..nnt nlHI the Second J1u1lellll
nl"trletIueh n..tnrh..I.
PLATTSMOUTH , Neb" , Nov. 2.-Spscal.- ( ! )
Cass county and the Second Judicial district
are experiencing one of the most remarkable
political campaigns on recol'll. Up to the
time of the republican convention at Ne-
hawka , September H , democrats Iud shrunk
into themselves , and their prospects for politIcal -
Ical victory this tall were acknowledged to
be extraordinarily slim. But a most aston-
Ihlng change has come over things politIcal -
Ical , and the wild sssertlon of democrats
now Include the whole , county ticket and the
district Judgeship. The change baa been occa.
aloud by the unprecedented bolting of former
foremost republicans and defeated candidates
It Is sweepingly asserted that not one of
the defeated candidates before the republican
convention Is stalllllng squarely up for the
ticket and that all the relIt are fighting
their sucCtooful competitors That state of
arralra has caused the democrats to crawl out
of their bolos and howl with dcllght.
The fiercest fight . however , Is being made
upon the Judicial candidate of the repub.
Means Judge Samuel M. Chapman. The
democrats bought off a few of the leading
populists , and worked a scheme to get the
endorsement of that party for their candidate , -
date , BI1l.1S. \ . Hamsey. They got the cn'
dorseinont but the rank and tile and other
honorable populists have repudiated the action
of a doubtfully appointed committee. The
fight waxes fast and furious In Oloe county
and the skirmishing ! line In CaBS county Is
rapidly concentrating upon this city. Sheriff
lkenb3ry , who was defeated In the convention -
tlon , only getting six votes out of the 190 ,
has bolted the ticket and hu come out
strong against Chapman. ElkenbAry's ,
nephew a banker at Union and [ a I1ret.class i
young , republican , Is running for county
treasurer , and the friends of Judge Chapman
are threatening retaliation on that member
of the lkenbary tamlly. The republican
county attorney , the ' owner of the News , and
his brother , the editor oC that paper , are
spending time and money making a perl'"nal
fight against ! the whole ticket , with the single
exception of the county judgeship while the
paper gins a perfunctory support to the republican -
publican \ nominees. The Tribune Is the only
paper making a square heel and toe fight
for Judge Chapman anti the balance ot the
republican \ ticket , and It was rumored here
today that overturn had been made to Editor
Burton to withdraw his support of Chap
man , but that he refuted to entertain the
offer for a moment.
Church howe the Nemaba ataleaman and
I : Wooley , a former attorney Weeping
Water , were requisitioned by Chapman's en'
emil's to try their hands upon the susceptible
voters of Cass and Oloe counties In an effort
to turn them from the republican ticket.
The fight Is a regular cross I1re.

LINCOLN , Nov. 2.-Speclal-There ( ) Is
another installment of gold mining excitement
In the capital city. For the past ten days
Prof Herbert Bartlett oC the ochre plan at
Indlanola fled WilloW county , has been investigating -
vestigating the fields In the vicinity of Mil-
ford Heretofore fragments of Prof. Dart-
lell'9 conversation have been exceedingly
conservative Indicating that he was Inclined
to proceed cautiously and not commit himself
too tar. Today he made the following report -
port to II committee Interested In lands near
Milford : :
"Gentlemen : Some time since I came here
In accordance with an agreement made with
Mr. Taylor to assumd temporary control ot
your gravel deposits and Inspect and test
the same 'rhls I have now completed and
am therefore rendering this report :
"Ullon my arrival here I found that the
Information received of these vast treasure
vaults had been erroneous. Insteall of a
ledge deposit as one expert had put it . I
found a gravel gold.bearlng claim miles In
extent and much of It fabulously rich , and ,
taking It altogether , It Is equal In extent ,
vaster In depth and richer In value than any
similar deposit In the world. Indeed there
have been but two similar ones known-one
the great middle fibld of Australia from
which the owner cleared $2,000,000 and over ;
the one In iIondnras which I equipped for
1 the late Thomas Parrott was the other , and
lu regard to deposit was similar to this one.
This Honlluras mlna added , millions to the
already princely tortune of Its owner.
Neither oC these n\lnt > ' , named was In point
of value anything ' Uk\u ( this one. The Australian -
tralian gave from $ . \.jG.to ! ] $2,90 per ton The
Honduras was worth about , 10 cents per

We get very ' 1'hlgh ' { value from a
stratum of deeply IrQnl4talnCll send five feet
Crom the surface 11 I j'
1"AUUl..oCSly RICH
"These tests hav ' been carefully made
and conservatively judged , , and viewing this
deposit from a lifetime of experience , I
pronounce It ot fabulous value. Shafts and
test holes have been sunk and value estab-
bshed and nothing now remains to do but
to adopt some plans or insane whereby this
gold can be gotten out cheaply and gmlckly
There has been spme talk oC mills rockers ,
etc. . but If either of these was adopted ' the
day ot Judgment would be here before the
last of this body would be treated In the
light oC experience , both of my own and
others equally varied water la the only
means of reclaiming this enormous vahle.
"In considering tire two systems , the cost
of Installln ! the plants would be fully $10,001)
for the mill , Its capacity : fifteen tons per day
and outside oC the fuel , the labor would
amount to $10 per lay. The rockers would
oC themselves coat but little but to make
any impression on this body , an army oC
men would bil a necOIlty ! aid the cost very
' -
- - -
great. On the other hand litter water has
been gotten , this entire mass can be treated
for a price not to exceed 25 cents per ton ,
and two giants would take up from hair an
acre to an acre per day ,
"lIow shall wo get this water ? 'l1hs
Blue river Is near , but the water Is so low
In the channel that to get It Is an Impossibility -
bility , and It a pump were resorted to the
mill Interests along the rIver would demand -
maml all the water and so this puts It out
of the question ,
WILL USE ARTESIAN \\'ATEH.
"So wo come back to the only recourse
left-artesIan wells. With two wells located
just across the water shed apex sloping to-
ward the Dlue. Two eight-Inch wells would
reach this entire gold producing deposit and
after this was out would be a I1rst.class
commercllll Investment , as this will solve the
problem for the Nebraska farmers. Arte-
alan wells lire no longer an experiment The
mesozolo rock no matter where It Is found
alwayu gives water In abundance A water
level run In this country during the loca-
tion of the Union Pacific railroad this rock
at 700 to 800 feet below the surtace The
boring to this depth will bo of but little ex-
pense as compared with any other means
of providing the same , and will be as nothing
compared to what water usually costs to
work gravel mines.
"It Is a fair test to measure ourselves by
others , and from this standpoInt we arc
fairly sure of success At Beaver Crossing
are fifty wells , all flowing and doing good
work. This la less than fifteen miles from
MIHord. At Niobrara City Is one elght.lnch !
well that Is 650 feet deep , has a natural '
flow under nlnet.llve pounds , Is eighty , feet
high and Is used to run a roller mill by day
BlIII an electric light by night. New York
Ohio , Illinois Canada and the Dakotas are
all In line In artesian wells and the prosperity .
perity of this semi-arid section , as well ds
the gold output ot this locality , depends upon
these wells. Finally permit me to congratulate -
gratulate the owners of this property upon
their rare good fortune In securing this
prize. "

PiATTSMOUTH , Neb . Nov . 2.-Speclal. ( )
-Tho farmers of Cass county are engaged In
. , . . . ,
snucKlI1g corn , winch IS reported as Jreing
very fine.
The small grain yielded from 10 to 25
cent better than the owneru expected , J , C.
Cummins , ex-county treasurer of this county
who Is located on a farm near this city , this
year had In about forty acres of small
grain , from which he expected to get about
fifteen busbehl of wheat and twenty bushels
of oats but when he threshed last week
his wheat made twenty-one and II half
bushels tu the acre and the oats went a
traction over thirty-two. ,
The farmers throughout this country have .
hit upon a plan In the last few years that
inns proven a great benefit In many ways
As a representative agriculturist said today
In answer to the question : "Why \10 so
many farmers do their fall ploughing as
soon as the crop Is off , sow It to fall wheat
and then plow It up and put 11\ corn In the
spring
"Well you see there are a good many
reasonD for this. In the first place , seed
wheat Is cheap and It thus used answers as
moro or less of a fertilizer and when we
do our CIIII plowing these dry falls and have
no snow during the winter this wheat holds
the Boll from being carried off by the winter
winds but should we have plenty of snow
which tall wheat requires to keep It from
what wo call 'wlnter kill ; then wo lire pure
of a good stand ot wheat , which we can let
stand or plow ' under as we IIkeo. ( 01the
other hand , should our tall wheat 'wlnter
kill ; allli we need some wheat , we go nhaul
and put In spring wheat. To illustrate the
different circumstances : There was one year
that \ I hall In nearly se\"enty.llve acres In
tall plowing all of which I put In fall wheat
as soon as convenient. In the spring I had
as fine a stand of tall wheat as I ever saw ,
but 1 had an overstock ot small grain In
my bins and was compelled to plow It UII.
'rhe very next fall , ot course I was shorten
on small grain and sowed something ! like
fifty acres. But we were cut short on snow
and I had not over one.tourth of II stand of
wheat and I wall compelled to pul In spring
wheat. In both cases the seed wheat was
cheap , and I lost It . but lI1y ground was
bettered , "
The apple business here has taken a peculiar -
liar turn In the last two weeks. Two or
three weeks ago apples could be had on any
terms and In any quantities at almost any "
prlct But now It Is almost an Impossibility
to get them at any price. They are selling
at the rate of about $1.2 [ ; per bushel , but there
seems to be none to be gotten , as they were
all shipped out. There was over 100 cars
shipped from this county east and about
sixty cars shipped west.
