The Story of
Our States
BY JONATHAN BRACE
XXXVlI.-NEBRASKA
~ THE Indian
MIgs,ss@sSaM the Platte
NssS@sN river was Ne
NzR@5#SN braSka, mean
W$ SHSW ing shallow
Y SaEsssN water. and
~ from this
came the name of the state. A
nickname for the state is the
Blackwater State.
Of the early Spanish eXplora-
tons little is known, except that
Coronado probably reached the
great plain of this region in l54l.
More than one hundred and
twenty-five years later Father
Marquette noted the Platte river
on his trip up the Missouri. In
: the beginning of the Nineteenth
century the Lewis and Clark ex-
pedition sk.rted the boundaries
of the present state and in 1903.
Manuel Lisa established the
first known settlement which was
a fur trading post at Bellevue.
This was just after the Louisiana
Purchase had brought Nebraska
into United States territory.
Omaha was established as a
post of the American Fur COM
pany in 1925 and Nebraska City
the following year.
With the California gold rush
in 1S49 many pioneers passed
through Nebraska and some
stopped and settled there al
though there was law forbid
ding settlements among the In
dianS. The real colonization
boom. however, started with the
passing of the KanSas-Nebraska
act in 1854, which arranged that
these two sections should become
free or slave states at the die
tate Of their inhabitants. The
Nebraska territory was then or-
gapized and reached from the
fortieth to the fortynin1h paral-
lei. In 1851, the region north
of 43 was made into Dakota
territory. The Idaho territory
was also created, which re-
duced Nebraska to its present
size of 1880 square miles. ex-
cept for slight addition in the
Northwest which was made in
1852.
In 1867 Nebraska was admit
ted as the 37th state over the
presidents veto. 1t has eight
presidential electors.

produced quite large quantity of
rich silver ore, have never been

have a large body of ore that is
already opened up and ready to
commence shipping. Returns from a
test shipment sent out in january
were received the first of February,
showing $50 OF. of silver. Messrs.

being President. Trustee and Fiscal
Manager; and Mr.. Hardness, Superin-
tendent, Secretary and Treasurer.

tons of this class of ore can be
shipped per month at a net profit OF
at least $4,000 per ton. Col Burgess

MEN
Business is business, but men are men,
Working and loving and dreaming;
Toiling with hammer, or brush or pen.
Roistering, planning and scheming.
Business is business, but he's fool
Whose business has grown to
smother
His faith in men and the Golden Rule,
His love for friend and brother.
Business is business, but life is life,
Though we're all in the game to
win it,
Let's rest sometimes from the heat
and strife
And try to be friends for minute.
Let's seek to be comrades now and
then
And slip from our golden tether;
Business is business, but men are men,
And we're all good pals together.
