CTHE COUNTY SEAT OF NANCE. Bome Advantages Possessed by the Thriving Oity of Fullerton. IT8 EXOELLENT WATER POWER. The Fxcursionists From Omaha and Other Places Very Highly Pleased With the Treatment Recelved. Ferertos, Neb., May 22.—(Special to Trs Bee.| -Nance county, of which Fullerton is the county scat, was organized from the reser- vation occupied by the Pawnee Indians from 1854 1o 1576, at which time they were moyed to the Indian territory. It is fifteen by thirty miles in extent, and the Loup river, which runs through its whole length, receives nu- merous tributaries from the north, the chiet of them being the Cedar, on which Fullerton is situated. This is one of the most beautiful streams in Nebraska, Ithas a constant body of water, fed by springs and running over a sontinuous bed of rock. The outlook from $he lofty bluffs above Fullerton is really mag- nificnt, The river,three hundred feet below,, 18 seen curving continually in the most beauti- | ful manner. Its banks are covered with green trecs, and along its shores thousands of tle are feeding. The party of Omaha gentlemen who v! Fullertor. on Wednesday was a representa- tive body of the business men of the It was composed of Messrs, J. H. Millarc Max Meyer, John Swobe, C. B. Yost, C. H. Guiou, C. N. Dietz, G. A. Hoagland, W. V. Morse, and Messrs. Kilpatrick of Kilpatrick, Koch & Co., Johnson of Sloan, Johnson & Co. Weller of the Richardson Drug company, Gyger of Dewey & Stone, W. H. McGuire, P. J. Nichols, M. J. Barlow, W. H. Megquic J. H. Lichtenberger, J. 8. Bfody, J. W. Grif- | fith, Sherman Canfleld, Richard Ber- lin Benson, Williams and Phillips, together with Messrs. Dickinson, Tib- bitts and Barr of the Union Pacific road, Messrs. Peters and Slaughter of the United States service, D. C. Brooks, representing Tue BEe,with Messrs, Sane and Foley of the Union Pacific, who joined the party at Columbus. There were also Super- intendent, George B, Lane of Lincoln, Mr. J. . Stocking of Denison and Joseph Simpson of Sioux City, Ta.; . L. Mcans of Grand Is- land, A. L. Bixby, W. S. Becker and J. M. | Heater of Columbus, and A. E. Cady of St. | Paul, together with Messrs. Wiltse, Critch- field and Brady, the citizens' committee of Fullerton "The purty on reaching Fullerton waPtaken ough the new mill, which has just been sted at a cost of £47,000, 87,000 of which itributed by citizens of Fullerton. The mill is four Storics in height, and con- tains all the latest machinery found in the mills of Minneapolis. It has a caj £ flour, and 200 by water power of the when a two- was built, In 1884 this was sold, and the mill which was Uestroyed in July’ last was built. The Cedar river,within two miles di tance wbove Fullerton, presents four other water powers fully equal to that which has been improved here, ‘There is everywhere the n ian limestone bottom, and the sume deep, rapid and_ continuous current flowing overit. The flume now in use does not utilize one-third of therpower of the river, and of this third the new mill utilizes no more than one-tenth, The flume is 400 feet in length, and is 16 feet wide, and 7 feet in depth. The piles beneath the mill were driven some sixteen feet into the soft rock, and the spaces are filled in with walls of stone which can be taken away without im- pairing the support of the building. The Hlood which carried away the old mill was caused by a cloud burst, and the great vol- ume of water cut through the neck of ground 150 fect in width, carrying away all the im- provements, turning the mill completely over and breaking or warping the machinery, which was mostly new. After a highly enjoyable afternoon spent in visiting the mill and in a_drive along the Dluffs, the party at 8 o'clock last evening as- SO fu - a Lurge Dull, Wilch was beauti- fully decorated for the occasion. Besides the visiting delegation some sixty citizens of Fallerton participated in the banquet, which was most enjoyable throughout. Hon. George D. Meiklejohn, on behalf of the citizens of Fullerton, welcomed the vis- itors mot_only socially but as business men | representing the great interests of trade and munufactu After full justico had been done to the repast, which was certainly a most clegant as well 'as_edible one, the toast- anounced the regular toasts. Hon. 2 Benson, responding to that of “The owth of Nebraska,” said that no man ever blushed with shame ‘when he said, “I hail from the state of Nebraska.” Where we stand tonight was witnin fifteen years in the midst of the Great American desert, which has retreated as does the mirage of the trav- clers. The free homes, the white school houses and the waving fields of grain are now seen on every hand. Mr. Brad Slaughter, in respouding ‘to *The Settlement of Nance County,” after giving a sketch of the occupa- tion and removal of the Indians, said that the chief reason why Nance county 'was noted for the character, intelligence and thrift of its citizens was that no man could obtain a foot- hold in the beginuing without having some money with which to buy the land, which cost Trom $#4 10 £10 an acre,” They were now men well to do, intelligent and of the best, class of citizens of the state, Largely devoted to stock raising and the heavy industries, thoy now wish for help to develop the water power, in which is seen a cortain_and large roturn for capital and skill. Hon. C. C. Brady in response to the toast *“I'ne Resources of Nance County,” said that if his hearers would doublé’ the figures given in a pamphlet issued two years ago, the result would be truthful. Wo 'have 279,000 acres of as fine land us the sun shines upon. Our products the past year would frefght o train fifty miles in_length. *Ne- braska as o Manufacturing State,” was re- sponded to by Thomas Kilpatrick'of Omaha, who suid that he was a merchant, and that merchandising _and manufacturing were closely allied. Nebraska has the reputation of being the best state in the union, and that estimato is just, judging either by her corn or by her people.’ Men with natural advant- ajes to assist them can always command assistance, and the citizens of Fullerton in tho rearing of this fine new mill illustrate | that fact. Hon. J. N. Peters, in response to | the toast “The Water Power of the Lower | Cedar,” suid that home nunufucture was a | thing' of great importance, We pro- duce raw materials that should = be manufactured at home. To build up communitics the laboring man must huye st 1t costs for | 100-horse. power’ b obraska fully | $10,000 a year. Mr. Poters went into statis- | ties, which showed that there is here at Ful- | lerton §270,000 worth of horse power now go- | ing to waste every year. “'The Future of | Fullerton” was responded to in an admirable speech by Mr. Chuuncey Wiltse, Ho em- phasized” what Mr. Meikeljohn had said, in regand to the presence of somany of 'the leading capitalists and business men of Omaha, and spoke of the obligations of Ful- lerton to the Union Pacific railroad company. Wo sat here by ourselves, ho said, and sa our mill go to destruction. A committee went | o Omalhii to consult with the ofticers of the railroad, and we shall never forget the re- coption ' accorded to us. Mr. Tib. bitts extended the same friendship und aid which wehad received from the lamented Warrack. We fully appreciate the attentions we have received. “Here where we sit tonight was the favorite war ground of the savag from whose presence we are ouly eleven years romoved. He had recently conversed With a prominent citizen of Hastings, who said that if that city had the water power of Codar river it would have 50,00 people within five years, Referring to a visit with Mr. Nichols years ago Mr. Wiltse quoted that wontloman s suying that the time would s0on come when the clatter of machinery would be heard all along the Cedar, moved by water power that would cost nothing. Fuller- tou will s0on become a thriving city, made so by sgriculture snd the improvement of its water power. Mr. Wiltse's uddress was admirable throughout, and was received at many points with great apglause. On “Tho Edutational Interests of Nebraska” Hon George B. Lane spoke cloquently and with full Informatien. After a speech by Hon. James Tauner on “Our Mill Company,” in ited | which the speaker thanked the Union Paciflo | | by his | ago. | Ford of Beatrice, for paving the newly cr company and the business men of Omaha for the great favors extended by them, Mr. A. L. Bixby of Columbus kept the tables “‘in a rope’ uaint and telling rehearsal of his “Reminiscenses of life in Nebraska. Mr. Sampson of Sioux City in reply to the toast, **Western Finances,” predicted that the weat will soon control the finances of the country; their financial resources are rising rapidly to the front in the United States, Mr. Kilpatrick rising, said: ““We have here to- night representatives of the thi ding manufacturing interests of the tates, grist mills, slaughtering and lum| Mr, W.

He spoke of the “magnificent prospects” for manufac- tures of all kinds, and predicted the estab- lishment, of a great shoe factory at no distant day. Mr.J. H. Millard, in response to a warm and prolonged call, said that their thanks were due to the good people of Fulle ton, instead of them thanking us. There is nothing which the Union Pacific could do which it hus not done, or will not do, Presi- dent Adams and his subordinates are warm friends of this state. Mr. Ames, the largest holder of Union Pacific stack, is the largest owner of improved property perhaps in Omaha, Hom.J. M. Guthrie said: *I am not surprised at what has been said about your county and town. We think a great deal of Saunders county, but here is another ful wood. Tam pléased beyond mensure with everything that I have seen. Mr. A, E Cady of St. Paul said that the scene _of tc night _was a transformation scene to’ him, whien hie thought of what it was twelve ye This gathering is a public benefaction Speaking of the resources of St Paul, he stated that last year 2,400 loaded cars were shipped from that place.” Of all the admira- ble specches, T have had to content, mysclf with the above brief references. They occu- pied fully three hours and were received with great enthusiasm, D.C. B. Registered Pharmacists.
