We greoted them cor- dially as b:comes neighboring sisters, We are fri:nds now, and so may we ys remain. The dawn of a now ora of peace and proeperity for both clties s, we trust, foreshadowed by this communion via the icy bridge, which will, no doubt, ore long be sup- plemented by & permunent stracture with such tolls as to make communi- cation practically frec. A return of the friondly raid will be a matter of course, and it remeins to be seen whether Omaha or Council Bluffs is ahead in the matter of fine horse flesh, nobby cutters and the crowd that can in & pinch hitch something to some kiod of aslider.
