ABOUT THE CITY. The Democratis at wo edition that is prom and which undoub! dism upon a boom ed for Monday next dly will be one of tising medioms ever put ess for the direct benefit of Lincoln. e Democrat prom an cight page paper that will be the direct product of three weeks' hurd work on the part of the speciul men engaged in the g:ruund for the ick the dorn it. arge number of Lincoln citi- sterday attending ., n large ority of the membcers of both houses 2 in sttendance, Business at the capitol Iulildmfi nside from supreme court, was very !gm. There was aripple of e © ?v sterday over the q culars sent out calling for a citizens’ meeting in the evening. 'he movement was 80 traneparent on its face and in whose di interest it was worked that tha prevailing opinion was that it would not work. The city of Lincoln has be- come too large to be fenced in by a and parceled out under an alleged citi- zens' meeting. It is stated that the grounds and resi- dence owned by *‘Lord Jones,” the dence being the identical one built years ago by Governor Butler, has been sold tothe' B, & M. railroad company for a handsome consideration. This property was lurmerlg outside the city, but the rapid growth of Lincoln has changed it to very desirable inside property. County Treasurer Campbell, " of county, was in the city yesterday trans- acting business at the capital. Mr, Camp- bell has recently visited Wichita, Kan., and he states that Nebraska towns have no idea of agreat big boom in compari- son with that place, where ground sells at $2,000 a front foot. ‘The K. P. boys of Apollo division are busy at work perfecting themselves in the drill and on May 1 they propose to attend the Kansas grand lodge at _Atchi- son and make it lively for the Kansas diyisions and the grand prize. Secretary of State Laws is at home and an duty again after his business visit to McCook and western Nebraska. ‘The real estate dealers are pushing tho boom with renewed energy and the con- stant arrival of men of means from the east makes investments active and the range of prices constantly increasing. —_— Stanton and The President. We ?uo!c the following anecdote from: 'Recolections of Secretary Stanton,” by aclerk of the war department, in the March Century: “When Mr. Stanley of North Carolina, was appointed military governor of his state, the secretary of war caused to be filled out one of the blank forms used for notifying military nominees of their appointment to office by the president, and when he had signed it and caused the seal of the de- partment of war to be attached to it, he concluded that it would be well to have the signature of the president affixed to the instrument, He sent the commission to the white house with the request that the president would sign and return it immediately. Mr. Lincoln took the docu- ment and read it over carefully, and then began turning and twisting it about, as though in search of something. At last he handed it to the bearer and said, ironically: “‘Did Mr. Stanton say where 1L was to put my ature?’ *‘No, sir,’ replied the astonished clerk. “ ‘Can you tell me,’ asked the presi- dent, ‘whereabouts on this paper I am to put my signature?’ The clerk looked at the commission andsaw the ample signa- ture of Mr. Stanton immediately at the foot of the body of the instrument with the counter-signature of the adjutant- general to the left. He saw also a neat, snug-looking white space beneath the sign-manual of the secretary of war which Mr. Lincoln might have ~occupied to advantage had he seen fit, but the clerk was politic and replied: ‘I don’t see any place provided for your signature, Mr. President,’ and was proceedinggto explain how the omission obviously came about when the president interrupted him and said in a dignified tone the paper back to the secretary of war, with my compliments, and say that the president will pnmpt'ly sign any proper commission that may be sent to him for Governor Stanley or anybody else.’ ared with etrict rogard to Purl bt ratnma, DE. l'riflmkmx?flmfidfi 7o AmmOninLdmeAlum or Phosphates.
