PROGRESS AND ENTERPRISE. Yostorday's Proceedings of the Do~ velopment Covention. AN ORGANIZATION PERFECTED. Name and Objects of the New Asso- ciation—Many Interesting Dise cussions—Entertaining the Delegates. The Great American Desert. The delegates to the Nebraska Dovelop- ment "Association were slow in assembling yesterday, though the committee on organiza- tion went early to work in the anteroom, In the main hall, H. T. Clark resumed the chair. Mr. Correll, of Thayor county, offerod a sugrestion in rogard to answering discredit- able reports about our state. Fromont's declaration, for instance, made ago, hat it never rained in Nebraska," waa meant for Thayer county particularly; butf they could see tho magnificent orops down there now, they would kuow beyond n doubt that there was plenty of rain in Nebraska. The idea of this state constituting the Great American Desert was preposterous, and should at all times be deniod. ‘Tlnt this state was i debt, was another derogatory statoment which had been made concerning Nobrask aud which should be refuted emphatically by this con- vention Mr. Champion S. Chase, roprosenting Chase county, couldn't oredit Mr. Cbrrol statement with regard to General Fremont's declaration, He knew that Fremont had been much maligned because, it i3 alleged, he bad denowinated this country **The Great American Desert.,” During a ride with him in his memorable camvaign I asked him,” suid the speaker, ‘*how it was that this coun- try was down on his_exploration maps us the ‘Great Amerivan Desert.’ He replied that in all oxpeditions there were cranks, as thero are in- all other onterprise It was through @ crank that this crept into his maps. ‘What do you think of this sountry, general, ! I usked, and he replicd: ‘I think 1's country, Again, there is an erroncous helief that the ramfall here is insufficient; but our bounteous crops of tho pust sovoral years is sufficient denial of this, and it would bo idle to dwell upon any refutation. 1 will take Chase county as sample county for the whole state: Number of acres in the county, 576,000; improved acroage, £20,000; wheat, 50,0003 " cora, 125,000; oats, 95,000} flax and other products, 20,0005 valuation, $1,853,000; average value of improved land Dor acre; population in 188 0); in *87, 3,500; in 'S8, 6,3 16'VOLo Ofs 1858, YSt. Joe. with her railroad: right through the southern pa and stealing the trade from Omaha, T a sufficient reason why we should have more railroads—the more the better. Omaha 1s friendly to ull portions of Nebraska, Crawford o Cummg county erroneous idea about the ra ka should be dissipated, In was an unprecedented rainfall, streams wore swollen beyond mal dimensions. To be sure we have had dry seasons, but in *63, 64 and 66 the wheat crop was simply imnicnse, averaging forty bushels to the ucre, “But about securing immigration. The raitroads bave done the most of course. The Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Vailey rail- road 1n 1581 sent out circulars and induced immigration, This raised the price of land up to 2 an acre all along the Blkhorn, When farmers can see the glurious crops of this state that will convinee them of the ex- traordinary merit of our climate and Induce them to visit the state. They will come hore alterward and settle, no fear of that.” K. Valentine of West Point, chairman of the committee on permanent orgamzation, submitted the following report: The nnme of this organization shall be the Nebraska Development_association.

The report was adoptod. Hon. J. C. Watson, of Nebraska City, on behalf of the Missouri Pacific railroad, ox- tended an invitation to the delegates of tho convention to take an excursion on‘the Belt line, enc ing | leaving the Webster street depot at 2 o'clock. The invitation was accented with thanks, The work of perfecting the organization ‘was left in the hands of a board of iifteen, as follows, five members being selected from each congressional district: First Distriot—C. Baker, of Gage: R. B. Windom, Cass; T. Clarke, Dvuglas; H. L. Wood, Otoe P, Kennard, Lancas- t Second District—C. H. Willard, of Thayer; J. C. Alien, Red Willow; Joel Hull, Minden ; Ben 8.

Opinions of the Delegates, W. 3. Dobbs, agent Fremont, Elkhorn & Missoutt Valley railroad, Stanton—We should wim to advertise our farming lands; our trade oircles, our salo and deliv- ery markets, our resources in gemeral. A pamphlet dwelling on these points, well cir- culated throughout the east, would no doubt, effect good results. Our section of the state will bo found among the most willing to fur- ther any plans of advertisoment in this di rection. Let the railway facilitios be known, Lt the farmer know that ho has direet rail communication with strong and active mar. kuts, Let tho capitalist know that the state affords substantial means for investment that overy acre of land tilled or untillod is y rail. Let all these things be Complie n report and circuiate it broadeast where money i waiting an open- ing for nirculation. A. M.

This can ba rovivel and tho | roads, can accomplish a_gre the line of developiug all our industrie: citizens of Red Cloua are willing to assist in this at any time. A. T, White, elerk Cherry County, tine—I favor tho map as a mediu tising. Hundreds of peoplo, if th the inducements offered, would flock to Ne- braska at onco. Many belicve that the stato is un ided with rail and market accom- modutions. By making a concisie showing of developments in this direction, I am sure iv would be accompanied by a great influx of thrifty people with which this state is blessed. - We have acres of available farm lands. and the state is amply provided with railroads reaching competitive markets and making all territory competitive as to the railroads. ‘This is an important factor in the aking ana development of an' agricultural state. Our products arc in demand, and our home markets are both strong and active, To convey theso points to the public we should prepare instruments of a literary na- ture, and circulate them in all prominent sections of the globe.

The county commissioners met at 10 o’clock to hear a voport from the committee on con- struction, to whorn was referred the commu- nication of Architect Myers and Superinten- dent Coots. They were iu session about five mintes. The report submitted and adopted eads as follows: ‘That not having schedule prices for cement for coment floors, or wood floors, and the architect and superintendent failing to furnish prices for materials for the samo, or what the excessshould be for wood floors, we recommend that the contractor of the county hospital name a man, the board name a man, and these call in another, and to- her the.three shall gev figures showing the difference 1 price of substituting wood floors as suggested by Architect Myers. The contractors and commissioners agreed to select Superintendent Baker, of ¢he Boe building to act as the third or outside man. After adjourning, Messra. Mount, O'Keeffe and Turner went to the hospital with con- tractors Walsh & Ryan to examine the work. Mr. Coots followed half an hour luter.

NOT DAMAGED. Rongland's Property Not Injured by New Mridge. For the past woek the case of George A. Hoagland againt the Omaha and Council Biuffs Bridge company has boon on trial in the district court, and owing to the mature of the contest, together with the large amount involved, has excited unusual interest and comment. The claim put in by Mr. Hoaglana was for £197,500, based uvon & roal or sup- posed injury to his property by reason of the construction of the Douglas stroet bridge. The fightbetwoen the lawyers in the case, Hon. A. J. Poppleton aud General John C. Cowin for plaintiff, and Hon. W. J. Connell for the defendant, was & hot ove from the start to the finish. Mr. Connell took the position that tho plalutft not only Was not injured by the construotion of the bridgo, but that he was an obstructionist, and stood in the way of public improvements, while General Cowin and Mr. Poppleton con: tended that the propoerty of their client had been soriously injured if not absolutely ruined, The urguments were the longest and most carncst that have beon mado in the district ocourt for many @& day. The case was submitted to tho Jury about noon Wednesday, and a verdiot roached in the evening which was returned to the court yesterday. The finding of the Jury is an absolute one in favor of the ae- fendant on all the poiuts, Mr. Connell, response to the Inquiry of a reporter, ro- marked that he regarded the outcome the groatost lagal victory he had ever secured in court. He recognized that he had great odds to contend against and his opponents were two of tho ablest attorneys at tho Omaha bar, “but the case,” said he, *‘is decided right, and the jury, by their action, has given re- newed confidence to our publie spirited mon to take hold of other like enterprises and carry them forward to completior, for the benofit of the eatire stato, us woll as the aity of Omaha.” The motor people were in court again asit- ing to have a check put on the Omaha Street Railway company. Tho orders made when ions were given in the Eleventh and xteenth street cases have not been entered consequently more trouble is being created. 1t scoms that the stroet railway company se- cured a permit from the board of public works recently to build a double track on nton, from Sixteenth to Twentieth streots and while the court also gave them pe sion to build there the Motor company claimed | that thoy aro domg it in such a way as to block them.

J, Brennan & Co. against Omaha, for $14.000, claimed by them asa balance due for work done on the city hall foundation, placed on trial Wednesday, has been brought to a sudden termination for the present. Afterthe jury had been em- pannelled and the lawyers made their state ments of the case, City Attorney Webster called on the court to 1ssuo an order oxcluding all testi- mony from tho jury. The grouads for such a motion are in substance that the petition of plaintiff failed to state facts, and Judge Doane sustained it. The jury then was with- drawa and plaintiffs were given until next Thursday to amend their petition and argue the case on a demurrer. ~ As contractors for the city I3rennan & Co. roceived 838,000 and 4 the city claims that this was the full amount due them, but tho company denied the ciaim and comnienced action for §14,000, Edward Walburn, the boy arrested with Sarah Wadburn, for adultery, was found guilty.

An Amicable Adjustment. The grievance committeo of the Brothar. hood of Locomotive Enginears aad the o olals of the Union Pacific met av a late hour yesterday aftornoon and took up the matter of wagoes of the engincers and firemen at the transfer, ' The company, some time ago, gave notice that it desirod to equalize the wages of the engineors in the yards at the transfor and in this city. At the transfer who engineers are paid $3.85 por day, while the, scalo in this ocity is from &3 16 §3.00. At the meeting yosterday a scttlement was effected, in which both sides made slight concessions, The engineers acvepted a §3.50 scalo for the ongineers at the transfor, and §2.15 for the Aremen. Thoy then request 10 &3 soale paid now en- gineers in the Omaha yards be wiped out, and the scale bo made £3,.50 for all, which the oficials of the comp: conceded, Tho wagns of the enzinoers on the bridge run were placed at £3.55 and those of the firemen at §2.25 by cousent of both parties, tho bridge men to do switching whon necossary. Another important mattor that was agroed upon was tho privilego of atlowing tho trains on the Kansas City, St. Joo & Council Bluffs to be conveyed into Omaha over the Union Pacific bridge by locomotives and crews of that company. Owing to the feeling of the brotherhood men toward the engineers aud firemen on the Kansas City road, which is a branch of the Burlington system, the Union Pacific was compelled to haul the Kansas City trains with its bwn en- gines, the brotherhood men notifying tho Unfon Pacific company that they would not allow the non-union engineers to operate in union ei This was reviewed oxten- sively yosterday, and the brotherhood men finally gave their consent to the ruuning of the locomotives and solid trains over the bridge.

INCREASED $i4,000. 1he Assesscd Valuation of the First Ward Increased This Year, Henry Ehrenpfort, the well-known asses- sor of the First wund, says that the report which the commissiongrs nave given to the nowspaners, that, the assessment of that ward was, in round number, $119,000 less than that of last year is unfounded. On tho contrary, he shows that the assessment is at least $14,000 in_excess of that of last year. He says that the commissioners have lost sight of the fact that in the ward there is real estate belonging to the Union Pa- cific, which is exempt from taxation which he has assossed at £53,100, the return for which, as he is nbliged to do, has been forwarded to the state auditor at Lincoln, Deducting this amount from the alleged difference of $119,000 would still leave a de- ficiv of $50,000 in round numbers. This, he claims, is more than accounted for by the fact that last year the property of the Puil- man Palace Car company was assessed in the [irst ward at #0,150. Since that time, the proverty has been removed to the Third wurd. De- ducting from these two sums the alleged ce- ficit of $119,000 it may seem that so far from a decroase in the assessment there has been really an increase of ovor 14,000, A singular feature is the ract that in the Third ward the assessor has failed to assess the Pullman property at all. The question, of course, of assossing the same is in the courts, but Mr. Enrenpfort assessed it pend- ng the decision in favor of the county,whic if be had failed to, might possibly invalidate the levy in event of the sait being deter- P ears Soap Fair white hands: Brightclear complexion Soft healthful skin.
