IMMIGRATION
The Quarterly Session Of the
State Board.
The Proposed New Work on the
Resources of Nebraska.

The State Board of Immigration
composed of Col. NOteware, Su-
perintendent, Hon. J. d. Neigh, of
West Point, and J. ]. Roberts, Esq,
of Falls City, Richardson county
is now holding its regular quarterly
session at the office of the State Su-
perintendent in this city.
Thus far the members have been
carefully looking over the reports of
the various county commissioners
of immigration.
They all show evidences of re-
markable prosperity, and prove tnat
no other State in the country has
brighter prospects than Nebraska.
Everywhere the State is being ra-
pidly settled up, and those portions,
where two years ago. not a white
man could be found, are now well
populated and turned into rich far
ming districts. Extensive crops
have been put in, and the pro-
liabilities are that Nebraska will be
blessed with a most abundant har-
vest.
The members of the Board have
in contemplation the publication of
a larger work on the resources of
Nebraska, giving to each county
three or four pages. 1t is proposed
to induce each county to defray the
expense of the number Of pages de-
voted to it.
There are now sixty-twO organized
counties in this State, and they will
all probably unhesitatingly agree to
contribute to the work, which will
be a well written and carefully COM
piled volume of over two hundred
pages.

TREAT OR TRAVEL.
A Bad Nan in . Saloon.

Patrick Rockbud Is the keeper OF
q saloon near the Omaha and North
western depot. He is . bad man in
q saloon, as he occasionally has the
hardihood to partake of his own
liquors. That's what got him into
difficulty Monday. A man named
Smith-everybOdy knows Smith
came into the saloon, thirsty as q
race-horse, and ordered two glasses
of lager. The beer was set out to
him, when ROckbud, seeing that q
couple of his customers were sitting
in the saloon eyeing the inviting
beer and waiting for somebody to
treat them, suggested that Smith
give them a drink. Smith couldn't
sec it, as he didn't have the honor
of the acquaintance of the two
Micawbers. Handing ROckbud .
two dollar bill, he waited for his
change, but waited in vain. When
Smith wouldn't treat, he went for
him, grabbed him by the throat,
and handled him just as if he were
in earnest. Smith really thought
that he was i'm earnest, too; and as
soon as he could release himself
from the clutches of his assailant,
he ran out of the building and es-
capped. Coming to the Police Court
he swore out a complaint agains,
Rockbud for assault and battery,
and the warrant of arrest was placed
In the hands of policemen Benedict
and Byrne, who went Up to arrest
him. They received a red-hot wei
come, as ROckbud was right on hi
muscle. He was so balky, that they
had to bind him with ropes, puthin
in an express wagon, and take hin
to Jail. The crusaders did not &C
complish this, however, before they
had received numerous kicks
scratches and bites from the obstrep
erOus ROckbud.
Upon being brought before tn
Police Court yesterday he wa
fined $40 and costs for keeping
disorderly house, and his licens'
was revoked: Being unable to settl'
the bill, he was escorted to jail.

Resisting an oMesr.

Peter johnson and William ].
Standing are the names Of two fell
laws who got into trouble Monday
evening by too often emptying the
flowing bowl. The inebriated bum
mers took up too much room on
Farnham street; and thus attracted
the attention Of policeman Mans
field, who tackled them, and was
about to take them to the "cooler."
They wouldn't have it that way,
and began kicking up a lively resis-
tance, SO much so that the officer
called upon Councilman Sutphen
for assistance. The Councilman
came promptly forward only to be
kicked and scratched by the unruly
pair. However, they were 500 Sc
cured and lodged in Jail. Yesterday
morning they paid $1,000 and costs
each at the Police Court.

EDITOR BEE.
Among the happiest men in Ne
braska to-day are the farmers of
Merrick County. And well may they
rejoice, for crops never looked bet
ter. 1t has been estimated that the
acreage Of wheat in this county this
wear is at least three times greater
than that of last year. Our farmers
have been on the qui riue for the
much dreaded grasshoppers and pO-
tato bug, but as yet have not put
in an appearance.
Our town has had several very
valuable acquisitions this spring in
the shape of new dwelling houses.
new stores, etc. A fine steam grist
mill is i'm process of erection at this
place, and will be in running order
before harvest. This, in connection
with the mill in the west end of the
county, will afford ample facilities
for manufacturing all the flour ne
cessary for home consumption.
Although two weeks notice had
| been given in our county paper, that
a meeting would be held on Satur-
day last, for the purpose of taking
| into consideration the prOpriety of
voting precinct bonds, to aid in con-
structing a bridge across the Platte
river, south of this village, yet only
one mantle originator Of this
school boy scheme-was present.
The cOntOrted cOuntenance of the
individual in question, as he gaZed
upon the vacant seats, and thought
of the total humiliation of his pet
scheme, must have been indeed
frightful. Peace to his ashes. The
scheme was doubtless intedded to
defeat the M. P. R. r. project, but
was entirely "twO thin" Our citi'
zens have strong hopes of securing
this road, and think the day not fal
distant when we will have a direct
connection with st. Louis, and all
southeastern points.
Tie Merrick county agricultural
society held q meeting q few days
since, and made the necessary ar.
engagements for holding o county
fair at Lone Tree some time mex
September.
The grangers of this county have
not yet accomplished any one O
the many objects for which that or
Plantation is notorious, but have
been rather luke-warm. We un'
derstand, however, that they in
tend to make up for lost time by
holding q grand celebration at thi.
place on the Fourth Of July. A!
the perspiration that moistens thu
brow Of the honest granger does no
ooze out through the pores of Oul
skin, we of course know nothing
whatever, of the programme of ex'
ercise, but surmise that they will b,
of a nature sufficiently imposing t.
strike terror to the hearts of the ex
acting merchants, and to face
flag of truce from the ''middlemen.'
That they may either soon reach tn,
desired goal, and settle down t.
their labOrs as Of yOre, and finally
"give US a rest" will ever be thu
prayer Of CAsABIANCA.

Departure of Irs. Van Colt.
How the Bee Stands in her e.
timation.

This talented ladyand earnest and
eloquent revivalist, closed a most
successful series of meetings in this
c.tyMonday evening, and left for the
Pacific coast this morning, accom-
panied by Mr.. Hulse, who is a rela-
tive of hers. The Rev. Clark
Wright also went out as far as Kear-
ney Junction.
While at the depota BEE reporter
had the honor of an introduction to
Mrs. Van Colt, by the Rev. Clark
Wright. At first the reporter was
somewhat backward about coming
forward, as he anticipated being
sshauled over the Goals" for being q
newspaper man. He had an idea
| that Mrs. Van Colt considered all
the Omaha newspaper men, with
the exception of George w. Frost,
unconvertible heather, on account
of their having at various times
playfully alluded to the re-
vival tent as the Methodist
circus. However, the timid re-
porter was introduced, and he did
not regret it. He found Mrs. Van
Colt q most agreeable and entertain
ing lady. She was much pleased
with her success in Omaha, and she
was lavish in her praises of the city
and her people, and expressed bel
surprise that such good order
had been maintained at the
tent meetings. She left thu
city with pleasant recollections
and hoped to stop here a day o
two on her return from the west
where she goes to endeavor to rais'
an $l8, 900 debt on a church.
The BEE seemed to her favOrit'
newspaper in Omaha, and she ex'
pressed herself very much pleased
with its report of her first Sun
days services here. ~ felt" sait
she, "when I read it, that l coul'
take that reporter by the hand, ant
Z personally thank him."
The reporter doomed up talle
han ever, and remarked (aside) t
. the Rev. Clark Wright, "That show
how the BEE stands in religious cir
cles. The Herald is nowhere"
The Rev. Clark Wright confirme'
the remark by an affirmative nod
and as the train moved of the re
porter said "GOod morning." an
landed on the platform, regrettin
that Mrs. Van Colt had OverlOOke
him during her meetings, and b
. was sorry that he had never inter
: viewed her before, as he learne
during his conversation with bel
] that she would have liked yer
much to have had him call upon hel
+ Mrs. Van Colt has many war;
q friends in Omaha, who all wish he
success wherever she goes, and the
hope that she will not break dow

n voluntarily undertakes for til

Monday night some devil, or fel-
lowfull of the devil, threw a couple of
stones or other missiles against the
side of the building enclosing the
pulpit. ''The devil seems to have
nothing else to do" said Mrs. Van
Colt.

turbed the meeting by yelling out,

exclamation of "Thank Colon

able amusement.
The BEE was the first paper in
the State to publish a statement of
the homesteads taken up i'm Central
Nebraska-the Hon. Joseph Fox,
receiver of the Grand Island Land
Office, furnishing rs the figures. The
statement, with our concluding re-
marks, was afterwards published i'm
the Grand Island Times. Yesterday
mornings Herald contains the
same, and gives credit for it to the
Times. A commendable exhibit of
enterprise and cheek, certainly!
The same burglar who attempt

Ish's house, which is near by, by
cutting off a slat ON the outside of

doctor discovered i'm the morning
what had been done, and only re-
GREETED that he had not been awak-
ened and thus given an opportunity
to use the seyen-shooter that was
