Nebraska newspapers are disposed to
east reproach upon the organizers of the
Omaha & Northern railroad. The Nor
folk Journal says:
The Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis
and Omaha railroad company seems to
have out. generated the lately incorpor-
ated Omaha company, which had for its
object the construction of road through
the northeastern counties to the north

ing dirt from Wakefield on toward the
unconquered field just as the Sioux City
ard Pacific company headed off the
Omaha, Northern and Black Hills three
years ago, and captured the North Fork
valley. Thirty.five miles of this route
will be built this summer, taking it into
the center of Cedar county, for which
the right-of-way is now being secured.
The contractors are Messrs. Carmichael
& O'Rourke of Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
And the West Point Republican re.
marks:
In glaring contrast to the deplorable
failure of Omaha to build railroad into
this part of the state is the work of Sioux
City in this direction. A few days age
the papers of that city announced that
the Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis and
Omaha would soon build road from
some point in Wayne county on the line
of their road to Yankton. A few day.
later the surveyors were in the field and
the contractor on the ground organizing
grading force, and no doubt ut thil
time are actually at work.
1t appears from the foregoing tha
the road ia to be built to within abou
twenty miles of Yankton and there hal
for the winter.

Another county heard from. The Alb.
erdeen Pioneer says:
The people of Edmunds county have
at last become aroused, and are moving
in the matter OF county organization. A
call signed by over fifty settlers in thir.
teen different townships. has been issued
and a delegate convention will be held
on the 18th inst. when parties will be
nominated for commissioners, and the
governor requested to appoint them.
When the people take such matters into
their own hands they are likely to force
even Gov. Ordway to act promptly. Their
action will take away the responsibility
of which the governor makes an excuse
for delay.
There arc now five on the list of suf.
felers whom the governor denies admis.
sion to the union of Dakota counties
Roberts, Sanborn, Faulk, Edmunds and
Hyde. The "inherent right" doctrine
might be applied to their cases.

The hail that fell at Yankton last night
is reported as being as large as cherries,
and done considerable damage to crops.

They were just about the size of cher.

The crop stood by without symptom of
alarm and not so much as a grass blade
was injured. Take it back, Charley, for

even above that of the capital COM

Drowned in q Pond.

Brookings Press: One of the saddest
accidents it has ever been our duty to
chronicle occurred near Argo on Saturday
last. On the afternoon of that day a
little child of Mr.. and Mrs. r. King,
aged about eighteen months who was
playing about the house, wandered off q
short distance to apond hole and in
some manner fell in and was drowned.
When found the little one was lying on
its face in about eighteen inches Of
water, and life had evidently become ex.
tinct. The death of child il at any
time a sad event, but under such circum.
stances as these it is rendered more
heart rsnding than ordinary, and must
wake a sympathetic cord in every heart.

Deadwood P Pioneer: A letter received
from Territorial Superintendent of Pub

optional with county commissioners
whether all moneys received from liquor

This is good news to Lawrence county
with such great demands upon the

The impression has prevailed that all
such moneys must be converted into the

now have an unexpected $4,000 to use

be spared the disgrace and chagrin which

The Sioux Falls Argus argues that is

chief commercial center of Dakota

upon fallacy. There is not in all the

Something About the Men who

A New York letter to the Troy

Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Pulitzer (all

hard ever stree he took charge 81 the
World and needs brief rest. The
paper is more lively (if not more ele-

still a question, and if Pulitzer has
been able to pay 100000. or even a
small part of it, he has done better

an immense patronage that it eau

mer at Rockaway Beach, which,
though not fashionable, is one
OF the healthiest places in this
vicinity. Reid, though member OF
the Lotus Club and the son in>laW of
a millionaire, ia not fashionable man
and avoids display. He has not yet
bought a country seat, but is trying
round" the best location. Hugh
Hastings owns an establishment at
Long Branch, which he occupies dur
ing the summer, Last season it was
entered by burglars, who carried off a
large amount OF diamonds and jewelry.
This class. however, rarely repeat
their forays, and hence during the
present season Hastings has thus far
escaped. Bowen, of the Independent,
has q country seat at Woodstock,
where he generally gets up Fourth
Of July celebration. Jones, Of the
Times, is old and quiet, He does not
care to leave the city unleGs 10 take
trip to Europe, and this is the first
season it has been omitted. Ills
son, Gilbert, is at Rockaway, where
he meets Reid daily, but through
rivals in journalism they are on good
terms. Gilbert, like his father, ia a
mOney.making man, and it is highly
probable that the latter will bequeath
to him hia interest in the paper.

Of the age Of wiichcrait. The story
that Jews require human blood for
Passover rites is accepted, not only by
the ignorant pOpdlace, but by persons
in authority, as affording a reasonable
theory to explain the murder of
Esther Solymosi. Magistrates appar-
emily think it their duty to begin by
believing that the girl was murdered,
and te use al their power to extOrt
confirmation of the belief from
ignorant and oowardly witnesses.

selves with the story of the boy, Mos
ritz Scharf, the matter would have
been simple, for it is clear that the
absence Of all trace Of the body was
not regarded as a serious obstacle.
Had they p-id the least attention to
the dispositions they had exterted,
they would have seen that the identiS
fication Of the body found in the Thesis
as Esther Solymosi's would have been
fatal to their ewn charge. Accord,
ing to the evidence they ex-
torted from Moritz Scharf,
Esther's throat was cut in the taber-
nacle, and according to their own
theories of the murderer's motives the
shedding of her blood was essential;
yet the body found in the river shows
no signs of violence Notwithstand-
ing this fatal drawback immense pains
have been taken to make it appear
that the body found in the Thesis is
that of the girl said to have been muir
dered 10 the tabernacle, and evidence
has been somehow got together impli-
eating ten persons"
The court in Hungary has been the
scene of one OF the most remarkable
demonstrations of race. hatred ever
witnessed. The rabble howled against
all the witnesses who did net please
them and insulted the Jews. Testi-
mony showing that the pretended
murder was impossible, was received
with diabolical manifestations of rage.
