statistics a "glorious future really has come in Nebraska, and notwithstanding the daily raids of bunco steerers and bogus agents of improved machinery. there Is a fine business outlook and the ing.
 The history of modern Nebraska dates from the opening of the Union Pacific railway, after the close of the civil war Omaha, then a noisy wagon train village, perched on the mud banks of the Missouri where passengers bound east and west over the Union Pacific line had to wait sometimes two days for the wind to change so that they could cross the tre- mendous rolling tide of mud and sand in the crealdng steamboats which did duty at the ferry.
 Now great bridges span the river All the trunk lines have their own trusses of steel across the yeiowzMissourl, and out around Kearney. where buffaloes used to stop the trains for day or two and ln dians ditched the "freights" and lex presses" and scalped crews and stray pas Kearney are the finest ranches in the world. It takes a man day to ride around one of them on a fleet bronco.
 Tremendous crops cover the ground a s far as the eye can reach where a few years ago the Sioux and Comanche h. dians chased buffaloes and college pro- fessors hunting fossils. Nebraska alone has resources and area enough to pay the national debt if she were to work her wand of prosperity to the limit.
