one was not the ratio of Indian to white
feet. But the tracks made upon the plains
and along the valleys by the aborigines,
either barefcoted or in mOcCasins, have been
cffaced and their trails are forever obliter-
ated. The pillow and the railroad, the village
and he city, the farms and the homes OF
civilization have erased every yestige Of the
savRges. 1t is not possible to reproduce the
imprints that barbarians had made upon
these p~rairies pricr 10 their settlement by
the pioneers. Those im9rints have been
rubbed out by the sharp a~ttrition which
agriculture, and manufacture have
brought to bear upon Nebraska.
They have been made forever illegible
and those who follow the Indians are their
superiors only by SO much as they better
human conditions and environments. lhe
best citizens-those who do NEST for them
selves and their families, within the limits
OF the public good, that is, without eneroach-
ing upon the rights of othere-will be longest
remembered and respected. They write
permanent and indelible autographs upon the
records of the state and are by the immor-
tality Of benignant influences forever inter
woven with the texture of its mental and
material development.
Eut the walking delegates, The broad
cast sewers Of discomfort, who merely find
fault with whatever is and dec!aim In favor
OF the impossible, which can never be, Will
soon be forgotten or only remembered as a
scourge, just as faminos and pestilences are
recalled. Thirty years hence and the deeds
and results Of the indictments who are nov
endcavoring to stir up wrath among the peo-
pie, by a~rTaying class against class, Will be
as invisible in Nebraska as arc now the

Let us suppose, however, party has
$1,000 and can get a five years lease
on 5000 acres at cents per acre, with
privilege to buy at $3.50, one-third
cash, the rest in four or five equal year
ly payments. He would have to buy
two good double tents and some house
hold furniture at cost of about $780,;
three mares, one wagon and harness,
$3.50; two cows, chickens and pigs. $50;
plowshares, etc, 500; rent of land,
$3.50; provisions, 500; $50 goats, 81

ordinary rate of increase and allowing

would be for the first year about $40
after deducting the rent, for the second
about 5000, for the third $500 after

$3.50 for new bucks. The fourth year
would leave about 81 800 after deduct
ing rent and $3.50 for new bucks; the
fifth year, $500; the sixth year, $4,000.
From the seventh year the income
would be over $1,000 and gradually in

to the care given to the management

made of the total income include only

best Judge for himself Yet he should
after the second year have enough for
a comfortable living, and out of the
revenue of the fourth year enough
should be laid by for the fifth to make
a first payment on the land without
being compelled to be stinted in the
fifth years expenses, and from the
sixth and seventh year the income
should enable the breeder to venture
$1,000 or $1,000 each year for the es-
adjustment of a thoroughbred flock of
his own, in which actually the largest
profits would be.
