Many Herds Will be Wintered in the Corpflelds of the Platte, dence of The Be. Nob., November 8.—Wes- ka is to-day one immense cattle field, and the business of cattle grazing is prosecuted with greaf profit. The cattle are wintered with very lit- tlo expense and the freight charges for trausporting them to market are much less than from more western fields. At this season of the year cat- tlo are being shipped as fast as cars csn be found to carry them away. North Platte, Ogalalla and Sidney, are the great shipping points on the U. P, iu Nebracka., The midsummer was very | 5 dry and the grass very short and scant, till fall set in. In consequence many cattloare tuo thin for shipment and will be kept over for another year. In a wet season cattle find surface water on the high land, which, with the aid of emall stresmlets running from the hill country to the rivers, supply water for the stock several weeks in summer, but this year the small streams and surface ponds were dry and the cattle have been pastured along the rivers and larger streamsall the season. Now the best grass is found on the high land and the bot- tom landsare almost bare. There are very fow first-claes shippers, the cat- tlo men eay, and there was never much better prospacts for good winter feel. Some stockmen are not sl ping any this year, and some are driy- ivg thelr saleable catile to the corn country to be fed. The shippers from North~ Platte this year are M. C. Ksith, D. W. Walker, H. P. Nichols, A. Richie, Barton & Dillon and Laing Bros., from Ogslalla, Bosler Brcs., Sheidley, E. W. Omsby, and Paxton & Ware; from Sidney, Tuslor Bros., John Adams, Pratt & Ferels, D. Sheedy, D. B. Powers, D. B. Linch, Code, Csin, and Judge Carrigin. A Colorado branch cf the U.

Kennedy, of Kearney, Nebras- ka, is driviag his +hippisg cattle to a, where they will His ranch fs forty wiles north from Sidney The politicians of western Nebras- ka have been working very energet- ically this year, for their political fol- lows in some cases, but mors ofier for lozal pets. The canvass was divested of party strictures and party lines cut uo figure at the plls, Democrats worked for republicans and republi- cans worked for democrats, where they thouzht it better suited their purpose. The Sidacy Telegraph, a democratic paper, worked fcr Snyder, a republican candidate, and the North Platte Republican worked for Samuel Watts, s democrat. Church, the op- ponent of Watts, was defested by sev enty-one votes, though the electoral ticketshowed his district to be regub- licsn by 110 votes. Railroad men tooka great deal of interest in the canvas, but it was a Icsing game for them. Watts, the Liocoln county representative-elect, is one of Nebras ka's pioneers who enjoys the fall con- fideoce of his neighbors acd s per- sopally very popular.
