A few facts worthy of every man s

careful consideration:
The majority of people insure
their property against lose or dam
age by fire or lightning, and yet the
chances Of loss are only about one
tenth as great as the possibility OF
loss among stock and yet how very
few insure their stock. Every other
day we hear OF some man who has
lost some stock by means of accident
or common sickness among cattle or
some form OF epidimic; consider
the heavy losses the people of Union
county have sustained during the
last year from disease among swine.
There is hardly a farmer OF our &C
Quaintance but has lost sufficient to
pay during the next five years the
premium on policy covering every
animal he possesses. The system
upon which | am insuring stock is
the same as that upon which life
insurance is conducted so that it is
almost impossible for the company
to fail. Some men who have been
insured not more than a month have
already recovered payment for their
losses. l am prepared to insure you
at any time. Come and see me in
my Office in Hoffman's block.

The Ponca papers have had con-
siderable to say recently in regard
to the building of a railroad bridge
across the Missouri river South of
this city and the probable building
of north and south railroad strik-
ing this point for southern outlet.
This is most feasible route and
there is perhaps more in the scheme
than the people generally believe. 1t
is fact, though perhaps not gener-
ally known that the Great Southern
or Tower City line which was sur
veyed and the right-of-way secured
two years ago through this county
to Richland crossing the Sioux near
Westiieid andrunning to Sioux City
ON the Iowa side of that river, has
| fallen into the hands of the Milwau
kee company, and the probability is
| that it will have some connection
with this bridge business, from the
fact that the right-of-away deeds
from Lester Stewards farm, about a
mile west Of Richland,to Sioux City
via Richland, have been abandoned
and not recorded, while the deeds
for the balance Of the line north
have all been recorded and remain
intact. This would indicate that
intention is to extend the line direct
across the bottom to Elk Point and
on south to the river to the proposed
bridge. When all this is accom-
plished. Elk Point will be the natur-
al point for railroad shops that will
employ 200 men, and our people
may as well begin to prepare for 4
boom that will startle the natives
Our prospects are certainly bright
ior seasoa Of great prosperity.
