o'clock this morning, Uids on the Issue
were opened about nipt wecka ago, but the
two recolvid at that time were held until
last night. fwlicn aontei-riiore were received.
The complicated form of contract In
volving the deferred time of IhsuIiik the
bonds and the taking up of them and the
Intcrcat Involved, whether belonging to the
county or lo the purchaser, made It ad
visable to deter the awarding on the bonds
until tne varloua blda could be gone Into
tare.ully. The,, five bids f r llie wholj
Issue are aa fallows: . .,
' Slate of Nebraska, par.
K. M. Kolllne at Bon. Chicago, premium

On the face of the bid It would appear
that the Rolling -offer was the beat, but
this may not prove to be the cam; on
account of the nat'lre, tit the bid. Whllo
the' Rollins' firm bid' s!' premium of $7,777,
all. tne bonds must be Iwued at once, and
be' bid being "flat- -IHo company would
get the benefit of. the accrued Interest.
On th .'Blhor- hnd. Uolgcr- and associ
ated firm arnj Halsey, while offering
lowtr premiums, leave It optional with the
county aa to whether all tho bonds shall
be Issued at once , or at 'future dates. As
all the inonev wflT Hot be needed for two
or three years, . the . oounty could iwve
money by Issuing bonds 'from time to time
as needed, clipping Its own coupons and
saving the Interest, which would otherwise
go to the purchaser.
The bid of the state Of Nebraska at par
gives the county the privilege -of Issuing
th bonds when It chooses. : .
The McDonald bid la w,;par proposal, but
this firm wishes to deduct the fees of, Its
attorney for looking up the status of the
county and the legality pf the. bonds. This
proposal Is therefore tha poorest of the
lot. : , '

Objects to Increase.
Tho Nebraska Telephone company has
filetl an objection to that part of the
order of the railway commission requir
ing it to Increase Its toll rates between
Tecuniseh and Sterling. TecuniS'h and
Vesta and Tecuniseh and Crab Orchard
from S to 10 cents to exchange subscribers.
The company alleges that the commission
has no power to require It to increase
rates, that the accent rate Is open to sub
scrlbers and the rate Is therefore not ill'
criminatory against a different toll rate
charged to the, public who are non-sub
scribers. The 6-ient rate Is said not to be
remunerative and will result In the loss of
farm subscribers. The comparty also ob
Jects to that part of the commlsslon'e order
reducing the- rate to nonsubscrlbers frtfn
15 to 10 cents between Tecuniseh and Vesta
and Tecumsch and Crab Orchard. The com
pany asks for a rehearing. It wants per
mission to charge the regular toll of 13
cents between Crab Orchard- and Sterling
to apply to every person except members
of the Crab Orchard and Sterling cx
changes.

It Is talked on the streets today that the

Railway company had about been agreed

company stock will go In at a rate of being
worth four and one-half to one of the
Citizens. More than a year sgo these two
companies began to talk merger, but noth
ing came of It at that time. Since then the
Citizens' company, which seemed to have
the Inside track In getting favorable ac
tion, secured several streets for the use of
Its lines. Now It Is said the merger is
a tertalnty.
