Westward, HO!

The marvellous growth in CONNER
cial, industrial and political impor-
lance of that immense region, popu-
larity known as 1.-The West" keeps
the painting statisticiau constantly at
work. Every year fresh wonders are
afforded, Look, for instance, at the
unprecedented growth of Nebraska
and Colorado. The gain in popula-
ton in Nebraska during the past twen-
ty-five years amounts to over l 600
per cent. OF the $4,000, 900 acres of
land in the State, not over 1900. 600
are under cultivation, yet since 1874
the grain product of the young COM
mon wealth has increased from 10, 900,
600 bushels to 100 600. 600 bushels, the
increase of last year over the previous
year being fully one-fifth of that vast
quantity. In fact, the rate of increase
in agricultural and industrial enter
prizes, as well as in population and
internal mprovements, places Ne
braska among the foremost of our
growing States. Then in mineral de-
velopment Colorado, Utah and Ari-
zonia present records quite as marvel
Gus. Ancient CIPHER is dwarfed by
the immensely of the precious metals
they produce, and the rush Of popu-
lation to Leadville and the other
mining camps of Colorado is like that
to California in IA, and TO Australia
a few years later.
But the increase of the West is not
confined to specific localities. 1t
stretches ali the way from the lakes
to the Rocky Mountain heights, and
practically embraces the entire valley
of the Mississippi. In this great val
ley, hemmed in by mountain chains,
and drained by the Father of Waters
and his tributaries, the future mastery
of this continent must centre. AL
ready it begins to overshadow the
once triumphant North, and every
year its political, material and moral
power becomes more and more pro-
nouneed.
In this Western march of the star
of empire our section of the South is
particularly interested. New Orleans
is. as it were, the seaport gate Of the
great valley and on the development
of Western interests her prosperity
depends. -NeW Orleans Daily City

A. ID. Williams, of Hastings. is
member of the State Board of Agri-
culture. We have elsewhere one ex-
tract from his paper rejecting severe
Iy upon the honor of the balance of
the board, and here is another. After
charging the president of the board
with being extremely sectional in the
appointment of committees, Williams
says:
Then, having a majority of the
board, they are very sure to let no one
slip into the presidency who will not
go it blind and perform the behests of
the little knot of manipulators-the
wheel within the wheel-who in fact
run the whole thing. -Four men vir-
tually dictate the action of the board
and, of these, one is a route mail
agent, one a horse jocky, one a real
estate and insurance agent, aud the
other a speculator.
Gov. Furnas is put forward as sort
of figure-head, but has no real power
only TO do their bidding.
When one of its own members
makes such charges 1t Ia time the
State board should move in self VIM

the vote was taken on location OF the
