There was a Delegate Railroad Con-
vention heldin w. II. Hoover's Office
on last Saturday, to consider the pro-
posed aid to the Trunk Railroad, the
minutes Of which are printed else
where. There was but one opinion
expressed, and that was in favor of a
donation by the county to the Compa-
nv. The delegation pledged their
several precincts in favor ola donation
Of $ls2, 900, by large majOrities. They
represented the opposition as triaing.
A general anxiety for the early con-
struction Of a road up the river, pre-
vaded the minds Of all present, Col.

company, said the Directors had done

now depended upon the action Of
Richardson and Nemaha counties,
and that with all they had done and
could do, unless they could receive
the aid from these two counties which
they now seek 20 obtain, It was doubt
aulifthe road could be built. If the

make them pay dearly for al addis

and farmers who are to receive the

The sale of State Lands and Lots in
Lincoln will commence at the Capital
on the Sd of June. Many persons
from all parts of the country are maxi
ing preparations to be present. The
Capital will be crowded with men who
have an eye to business, and we ex-
pect that the property of the State will
command its full value. W. hope to
be present as a mere locker on, and
witness the grand scramble for corner
lots. As editors are VIGOROUSLY without
funds, it would be impossible to sell to
men Of that class. No, we can't buy;
but we can, by going, see the chances
to make money, which is the next best
