sees fit to modify it's proposition.
The general impression in WASH
ington is that our proposition will
include the withdrawal of Spanish
authority from the PHILIPPINE
Islands, but opinion differs as to
the disposition it will propose to
make of the islands, other than
Luzon, which it is p Practically GER
tain we shall keep. Some, think
an independent government under
our protection, will be prepared
for the rest of the isl lands; others,
that we shall take the whole of
them at once, and still others, that
Spain may be allowed to keep all
except Luzon, if she will guaran-
tee them good government and
grant us liberal trade concessions.

MORE FROM HOLLY GROVE.

We will begin this weeks news by saying that we feel thankful for the few days of good weather which has been good on those who yet have cotton in the fields, and are trying to have it picked. Fur ther down the Mississippi river the farmers have such great a. mounts to pick yet, they have con- cluded that it will be best to let the cotton stay in the fields until good weather comes in the spring and in place of growing another crop of 4 cent cotton. They will just pick the crop they now have on hands, thereby saving the ex- pense of making one crop of cotton. What do you think of it, Bro. Bill' Of taking two years to gather the crop, made Tn one. There are thousands of acres of cotton to-day that have not had a bale picked out of 1t, that did have from one to one and one half bales to the acre on it; can't get hands to pick it. Some one lost big money on such a crops for they had to pay for having the crop made, and then to lose it all,
 -as say, some body has lost money, and good deal of it. As II. G. has said in past communi- cation to the ARGUS, that the sooner the price goes down to 2 cents, the better 1t will be for the southern farmers, for I am sure it will never go back to 8 cents which IS as low price as the southern farmers can raise cottcn for and make anything now. The only thing to cause decrease, is for it to go to ? cents per pound, so then the merchant can t fur- nish any one to make 2 cent cot-

LOST m A CORN FIELD.
Searched Through Forty-eight Square
Miles for Stray Child.

Eastern people have but a faint idea
Of the vastness Of Nebraska cornfields,
and ii is more than likely that com
paratlvely few Nebraskans realize that
the States cornfelds are often to be
measured by square miles instead Of
acres.
In 1888 Nebraska had bumper corn
crop Fairfield, Clay county, was set in
the midst Of the finest corn land in
the State On the west side of the
town was a corn field fully ten miles
long by six wide, broken here and
there by narrow roadways that mark
ed section lines One evening word
was sent uptown that the three-year
old boy of a family named Jackson
was lost in the field.
A hasty search OF the outer limits
OF the field failed to reveal the boy
and darkness soon came, followed by
heavy rain. BY O'Clock twenty men
and boys, with half as many lanterns
and a dozen torches, gathered about
the Jackson home to begin a systemat.
ic search for the lost child. Each man
was assigned to the task OF covering
four rows Of corn. and then. 200
abreast, the little army started cut Ia
the darkness, mud and rain. HON
after hour they marched across that
mammoth field. but without finding
any trace of the little fellow
Reports from the house were to the
effect that the mother was rapidly
sinking, and that the recovery of the
baby would be her only salvation. This
spurred the tired searchers to renew
ed efforts. and for another two hours
the search was prolonged
A few OF the searchers dropped FROM
sheer exhaustion. but the ranks were
closed up. The first four miles Of ne
n-lu were thoroughly covered by mid
night but the child was not found At
midnight hasty lunch was partaken
OF by the searchers. and after a few
moments rest the search of the wesG
half of the great field was begun.
About 2 O'Clock in the morning the
rapid firing of revolver attracted the
attention of the searchers.
"Hello!" came a voice from out OF
the darkness. seemingly a mile away.
Hello there" was the answer sent
back
For moment all was silent. and
then came a shout that set the search
ers to cheering like mad The voice
from the darkness said:
We've found the boy.
