Bid Dispute Over Cheyenne County Official Ads
The Cheyenne County board rejected a bid by Callahan of the Telegraph to publish official ads at legal rates, claiming he offered far below cost. Figures show savings of over 1,050 if accepted, prompting criticism of new commissioners Frame and Crigler for alleged reform moves harming taxpayers. Also notes unrelated items about Senator Pettigrew and a poisoning incident in a Lincoln drug store.

Nebraska Banking Capitol and Prohibition Echoes
A lengthy column critiques medical licensing and praises Nebraska banking strength, noting Nebraska’s higher bank capital and deposits than Iowa. It covers Lincoln drug certs, Omaha ministers urging against Sunday papers, Bly’s world tour, county printing costs, and prohibition law proposals impacting church services.
Oddities and Local Items From Omaha and Nearby
A flood of brief notes covers varied topics from 19th century, including medical curiosities about infusorial catarrh and Jagrippe, a policeman fined in Kansas City, Omaha and Lincoln papers debating state fair details, and jokes about Nebraska figures. Entries reference Il Paso travelers, Pine Ridge Indians, coal prices, a one horse country exchange, and a newborn in Broken Bow. Insights touch on immigration hopes, poetry plans by N. R. Griggs, and curious social ties between two widowers.
