The re- ceipts were larger by £12,000 than iast year, and will reach a total of nearl ,000. An idea of the attendance can be obtaied from the fact that the Kock Island road carvied 185,000 people to and from the city and tho fair grounds, 1n addition to 37,000 excursion- ists from ajong thoir line, making 172,000 peo- ple they haudied.

This line is twenty-two miles long and was constructed in 1851 and was operated until March 6, 1880. It made ex- nses and a few hundred dollars profit dur- ng the first six months, but ever since it has been run at a loss, The net losses have run from $5,000 to $18,000 a jear, or a total of &0,000 during the seven that it has been operated. Inasmuch roud is paralleled by the Burlngton, Ceds Rapids & Northern, every station oun the one being also on the other, the Milwaukes company thinks that no public injury will follow the taking up of the road. They say they are going to do it, as they are tired of opéruting the branch at a steady loss, A Disgruutica Pronibitionist. CrarLes Crry, la,. Sept. 6.—[Special Tele- gram to Tie Bee. |—The attitude taken by B, B\ Wright, president of the state temper- (@ugo alliancey toward the republican party is occasioning much comment. Since bis de- feat as a delegate to the stato ‘eonvention Lo has been bitter in his opposition to Dr. K. Wiibur, of Rockford, us representative, Wright holds the view that the state should upproprinte large sums of money for the pur- se of prosecuting violators of the liquor Jaw: also that a constabulary shouid be appointed, whose duty it should be to appre- hend those who conduct the sale of liquor. Wifbur is a strong prohibitiomst, but docs not agree with Mr. Wright on these meas- ures. Itis generally thought that Wright himself will be a candidate against Wiibur. Another Heartless Desortion.

The county clerk says that no such contract ex- ists .between the county and Rich, and vefore the board of supervisors can lease the prisoners to any one bids will have to be advertised for in this county as prescribed by law. There are other citizens, among them mill owners, charcoal contractors, and farmers, who would like to lease county prisoners, and, if bids are advertised for, Rich will not have it all his own way. 'the efforts of Sullivan and his friends to _have a miscar- riage of the sentence have hud the effect of turning citizens against him who were at first only in favor of a fine. They are now determined that the fine shall be carried out, and in the event of the slugger being leased out the farmers will do some bidding. One of them said to-day that he could afford to pay.as much for a lease as anyone, and. if he secured the contract the ‘Beanville slug- ger and tae heavy hitter srom Baltimor would have to drive a mule and stand their band at plowing. The charcoal contractors are also tickled at the chance of hiring the champion to propel a wheclbarrow, and the lumbermen are anxious to try the big fel- low’s skill at loading cars. There will bo lively music when Rich makes an attempt to secure a lease. - e The Santa Fe Convention. SANTA F'E, N.

Detweiler, of Omahn, presented the report of the siato traveling socretary. Notwithstanding that it was an excellent report, the recommenda- tions ot the committee elicited much discus- sion.

The attorneys for the state think t whopper too big for an honest horse trader and will prosecute him to-morrow. Bostwick's Na Announced. gram to Tue Be y an evening newspaper published at H threw a bombshell in the congressional cam p this evening by anuouncing the name of H. Bostwick, of this city, as acandidato for congress. Mr. Bostwiek returned from the east last Monday and in a published inter- view stated emphatically that he would not be a candidate. He has been chairman of the congressional central committes for se eral years, The announcement of his can- dicacy, although ostensibly made without his knowlelge or consent by a newspaper that stands so closely to him and his friends, will have a tendency to complicate matters cousiderably in this county. In urging his nomination the Daily Nebraskan says: ‘“Jim Laird’s unfinished work in con- gress makes the selection of his successor a question of considerable moment to many in the district who wish to have as nearly as possible the plans he had formed, and the projects he had ‘undertaken gathered up by his successor and carried out, if possible, as he would have done. Hastings, reasonably wellassured of the passage of its public building bili #f Jim Laiwrd had liveg, is deeply interested in the final success of that meastire. Who can best take up this unfin- ished work? We can not hope to find a man possesséd of the same genius and in- fluence as Mr. Laird, but the next best thing would be to select one closely ailied to our deceased congressman and thorougnly con - versant and familiar with his wishés and purposes. From the time Mr. Lurd eu- tered congress Mr., Bostwick has been at the head of the central committee and directed the movements of each campaign with sig- nal success. He knows intimatelv every part of the district and is the best koown man in it. As a political organizer he has not a superior if an equal in the state of Ne- braska, and, being s man of usual ability, especially fitted and adapted for public ser- vice, what better selection could be made at this time!" z The congressional central committee will meet in this city oo Monday next for the purpose of calling & convention to place in nowination a candidate to succeed the late James Laird.”"*1v_is probable that the con- vention will baheld at the same time that the atate conyeplion is held. ~Governor Thayer's annojjatgment that he will not eall ecial olectip, removes all necessity for y av lhlflr Fort IRo' inson.
