The limit of ar Nebraska has steadily pushed westy year by ye followed fr in the tracks of the settler who has daved to break the sod. For o hundred miles west of Kearney the farmers have taken up nearly overy acre of the land which was considered worthless ten years ango and for two hundred miles farther woest the praivie is dotted with the little dug- outs and more pretentious sod-houses of farmer pioneers. Bufitlo county on the 1st of last June contained 14,513 popula- s, Dawson 10 inhahit- 9 farms, snd Lincoln, its hbor, of 5,002 population under cultivation, But two counties along the line of the Union remain to he settled up before the western Timit of the state is reached, viz: Keith and Cheyenne, whose condition has been so phically set forth in the columns of by General Thayer.

The census of 1830 omits from lists the counties of Brown, Cherry, Sheridan and Dawes, whose com- bined population, aceording to the state census daken last June, was 14,740, and which eannot to-day be less than 20,000, Holt county, in 1830, 1eported lation. 1t comes up smilin year of gr 5 with more than 16,000, il to the Wyo- ming line, which five yoars ago contained by census less than 4,000 people, more than 30,000 inhabitants are now making their living, and 7,000 farms are in pro- cess of eultivation, The cold statisties of to-day arve the best reply to the fore- bodings of the wiscacres of the last de- cade, In the south Platte country the progr from frontier to farm has gone on with searcely less vigor. As in the case of the most northern counties, the g t de- velopment is noted in that which had been considered most worthless. The growth of that tier of countics lying direetly south of Dawson, Lincoln and Keith shows an incroase of populs tion from 12,115 to 22,559, while the lower- most counties report an increase of some 8,000 in a total of 20,000 prescnt popula- tion., The rich valley of the Loup, the conn” tios of Sherman, Valley, Loup, Wheelery and Custer, which have remained more or less isolated, and ignored for so long bocause of their isolation, join the proces- sion of their sisters in western Nebraska dovelopment. Five years ago Custer ro- ported 2217 inhabitants, To-day she stands credited with 12,399, In 1880 She man was thinly settled with 2,061, Fiv years later she had more than doubled her population, with Valloy, Loup and Wheeler with the same record. The frontier, as may be seen from these statistics of ou marvellous growth, is being year by year crowdod towa the Wyoming line, Man is nature in changing the face of tho coun- try, Groves and orchards, pastures and ploughed land, farm houses, churches and schools and prosperous towns are rapidly erasing the old time desert from the face of the map. Year by year its extent been contracted. Five years from now, who is pr d to suy that it will exist oxcept in memory ? ———— loss 55 A Blasted Reputatio The sudden death of Ju Cheodorie R. Westbrook, in New York, last weck, marked the end of a judieinl career which has failed to eall forth a single word of oditorial praise from the metropolitan press. No friend of the deceased can read the reminiscences of the dead judge, with which the New York papers are filled, with any emotions cxcept those of shame, His logal ability, his favor as a judge with barand jury, his fine personal presence all receive the prominence due them, but are overshadowed complotely by the single sentence, “Jay Gould's hund bad been Jaid on him and his court was the ercature of his corporations.” Judge Westhrook fivst came into unenviable prominence in ihe civil actions brought against the members of the Tweed ring.

The New York Commercial Adverti sounds anote of distress over the Grant monument fund, as follows: “The growth of the Grant monument fund is now so slow seareely to be growth at all. Fitful contributions of a few dollars are reccived now and then, but practi the eolloction of funds this purpo has ce 1.

'Inl weukness of any system of civil inassuring tenure of ofli being made clearer. Men of hoth p are heginning to that in practica operation, under practical politici th tas very little of a safeguard to the ins and are not much of an obstruc- tion to the on But when the civil ser- vice rules and offensive partisanship con- flict to democratic disadvantage, the government inspector puts in his appeanr- ance on an oflicial visit. Under these distressing circumstances he comes to find “something wrong” and in nine cases out of ten, as duty hound, he fndsit. If the office it is desived (o va- oate is o postoflice, there are a dozen ways in which the inspector can make room for a successor to the incumbent, Failure in complying with some mouldy regulation of 862 or noglect to keep the hinges of the stamp window properly oiled, are generally suflicient n- cing disregatd of superiors in the one ease and want of care for the public ne in the other. But if th fail thero are a numborof equally serious charges which can be made und sustained; any one ot which would “warrant removal.” An inspector’s visittoan Indian ageney can be made still more fruitful of re- sults if so desired by the authorities at at Washington. In this case, the com- plaints of the smallest faction nst the agent are carcfully noted and are rein- forced by the nccusations of the half- breods and expelled squaw men. Stato ments of the jority of the In- dians favorable to tho agent are brushed aside as made under fear of cocr Following out this principle, v. under the interior department made with promptness and dispateh, and civil service reform agitation si- lenced. see ArrnovGH summer has departed it seems that the silly season is not yet over. The most “remarkable snake story of the season”” has just found its way into print. Of course it comes from Georgia, the land of eccentrie sensations; and as the man who vouches for the story is a church mwember no one will doubt it. Two b caught & snake, and on rolling it oyer suw the tail of another snake protruding from its mouth. One of the boys seized the tail of the one snake, the other the 1 of the other snake, and proceeded to relieve his kingship of his dainty dinner. The snuke swallowed by the king snake proved to be a pilot snake, three feet four inches long and five inches in circumfer- ence, while the king snake was four feet and four inches long and four inches in umference. To match this snake sto of the land one of the water is produced simultancously. A sea captain, who land- edin New York a few days ago from Nuovita, reports that his vessel on the fourth day out met a genuine sea serpent 800 feet long. It is not stated whether tla: sen cuptain is o church member, and henee we regard his statement as a “hishy " story from & man bull-sens over, Tudg | that York | | to i down. Onto the Coast, Me.
