Major Suter proposes to begin the work insections, beginning at the mouth of the river and working upwards. For the sum named, proper security to the banks, he thinks, could be assured, and a permanent ‘improvement made in confining the channel within set bounds. Several river conventions are soon to meet for the dis- cussion of this important question. Incidentally the conventions should take into consideration tions to navigation which now imperil property and lives on the river.

Tt| subsequently died as did also four other horses kept in the same stable, The plaintiff alleges that the de- fendant had a horse die of this same disease prior to the trade, and that he, the defendant, knew the horse traded to him to be affected, and that was his reason for trading. The plaintiff now sues to recover the value of horses lost, and the expense of doctoring them, in all over $1,000. The partics both live in Colfax county, where the people are mostly Scotch, as is also the defendant. The plaintiff is Ger- man, as are also many of the Plate county people.

Thurston, of Omaha, will deliver harangues to the people thus assembled. B. K, Smith, a member of the last legisiature, and Loran Clark, member of aformer one, are advortised to be on hand. We presume they will tell how sweet and profitable it is to be a railroad politi- cian and advise everybody to join and circle in the ring. They ay inadvertantly say the railroad is now built into Columbus because the company calculated tit less expensive to build the road into Columbus than to reconstruct the Loup river bride, and that the $25,000 bonds voted was desived simply as a testimonial of their iendly feeling. The pride of the citizen will be slightly on learning that they have been guilty of such high handed generosity as donat- ing the munificient sum of $25,000 honds as a token of affection to men who scarcely know whether they have contributed $25,000 or $50,000 at a single specified time to a specified object ~ The people may be reminded of similar tokens sent in advance by one sovereign when approaching an- other in the good old Bible times, However the most refreshened mem- ory will hardly alight upon a king who with the donation in hand can org himself into a stock company and inflate that peculiar animalknown as stock capital to ten times its nor- mal size, and utilize this as a basis for levying upon the producing industries of other lands, for the development of which it purports to have been ap- plied.
