This is a lively trading point and is making rapid strides in improvements, several new stores and residences having been erected in the past year. A splendid brick school has been built at a cost of $13,000. There are three grain elevators here having a combined capacity of 58,000 bushels and shipping on an average 90 car loads per day during the season. A splendid full roller system flouring mill located here assists in the consumption of the surrounding products.

F J M Smith, postmaster.

FREMONT - The county seat of Dodge county, and is located at the junction of the Union Pacific, Sioux City & Pacific, the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley Ry, and its Hastings & Geneva & Lincoln branches, 47 miles west of Omaha. The site was originally selected for its slight elevation of ground and being at the confluence of the Platte and Elkhorn valleys, the two most picturesque and productive, and now the most densely populated valleys in the state. It has at this writing a population of 8,000, and shows an expenditure for private and public improvements for the past year of $450,000. It is conceded by its strongest rivals, that Fremont contains more fine residences than any other western city of its size. In the center of the city is a beautiful public park, upon the side of which stands the water tower, 130 feet in height, and from which over four miles of water mains are supplied with cold and pure water. The system consists of a series of driven wells from which the water is drawn by a powerful and effective steam pump and forced into the tower, or in case of fire can be soconnected as to give direct pressure to the mains. The principal streets and business places are lighted with electricity and about four miles of horse car track run through theprincipal and resident parts of the city.

Manufactures and Wholesale Houses - Among Fremonts most important manufacturing plants are: Fremont Foundry and Machine Shops, whose pay roll and amounts to nearly $50,000 a year; the Continuous Brick Kiln Co., with capacity of 40,000 per day; the Nebraska Creamery claims to have the best equipped creamery in the country, employs 35 to 40 hands, pays out in Fremont and vicinity nearly all of its expenditures and has a yearly output of over half a million pounds; the Fremont Milling Co have lately made large improvements to their plant, and turn out a produce equal to any; the Fremont Manufacturing Co. and Denny & Lumbard operate two extensive planing mills; the Fremont Carriage Co., though lately organized, is making rapid strides forward and is turning out a large amount of work equal to any in the west; the Fremont Hemp and Twine Co, are extending their plant and employ 35 or 40 hands, the Globe Cornice Works, the Fremont Broom Co, a large number of men, and turn out well known products; The Seeley Elevator Co, having its headquarters here, is perhaps the most important of its kind in the entire west; over 100 grain elevators in Nebraska bear their name, and their buildings and machinery are now well represented in adjoining states. Fremont also has a packing house with a capacity of 1,000 head of hogs daily. Among the most extensive mercantile houses are the Nye & Schneider Co, dealers in grain, lumber, coal and live stock, and owning over twenty elevators in various parts of the state; Huette Son & Co, wholesale hardware, stoves, furnaces and cornice manufacturers, and H J Lee wholesale hardware, wagon and carriage material; Albers & Co., wholesale liquors and cigars, and agents for Anheuser-Busch Brewing Co.

Post Office - More mail is handled at Fremont with corresponding net receipts than at any other office of its class in Nebraska. The carrier system having only been in operation since July 1888, and at present employing but four carriers. The last session of Congress passed an appropriation for the erection of a government building here, and the commissioners have already selected the site.

New Buildings & Public Improvements - The principal buildings completed since our last edition are as follows: Dodge County Court House, a magnificent piece of architecture, at a cost unfurnished of $60,000; Fremont City Hall, a commodious and substantial brick, cost $11,000; two public schools cost $35,000; the Masonic Hall erected by the fraternity mainly for their own use at a cost of $35,000, is not only in its interior as handsome and convenient as any Masonic Hall in the west, but presents an imposing exterior, having a magnificent brown stone front, which is both massive and beautiful. The German American Bank building is another imposing brown stone edifice costing $20,000. The Anheuser-Busch Brewing Association have just erected a handsome frame storage house at a cost of $10,000. The Postoffice block cost $8,500, the Union Block cost $10,000, The Fremont Carriage Works handsome and commodious building occupies a prominent location in the heart of the city. Several costly private residences have also been erected with the past year, one at a cost of over $20,000. Over $40,000 have been expended within the past year in paving. The Fremont Hemp & Twine Co., have just commenced the erection of an extensive twine mill here which, with its machinery, etc., will approximate $35,000 in cost. This will be run in connection with their flax mills here and at Elkhorn and North Bend.

Educational -Twenty thousand dollars, or nearly $2.50 per capita of its population, is yearly expended for the support of the city school system. There are four capacious brick buildings heated by steam, two of which have been nearly doubled in capacity during the present year; one more wooden structure has also been built, making in the six buildings a seating capacity for 2,000 pupils. All of the schools are nearly filled. The school board is liberal in its appropriations and has provided the rooms with all modern apparatus and one of the best corps of teachers to be found in the country. The growth of the Fremont Business College during its first year, just closed, has been most phenomenal. It was due largely to the fact that President Hamlin is widely and most favorably known throughout the northwest and has made a great record as a business educator. Other features of the institution which have added greatly to its popularity are the carpeted rooms, inside blinds, lace curtains, model furniture, and unrivalled equipment. The business offices and their belongings are most original and complete. The department of telegraphy is conducted by a Western Union expert, the department of languages and academic branches is in charge of a Michigan university graduate. Everything is done in a rational manner and upon business principles, and pupils who enter there learn many valuable lessons outside the books, and carry thence thought and aspirations, which will surely lead to grand results in the business world of the future. A strip of some ten feet wide running the entire length of the main room or hall has been partitioned off into various compartments which have been fitted up with every interior convenience and expensive office fronts; these represent in every detail two banks; a home bank with $1,000,000 in its own paper money, and an exchange bank representing the manner in which drafts etc., are handled at the other end; there is also a railroad ticket and freight office with all the paraphernalia of such, including tickets to all points; a telegraph office, a wholesale house with cards representing every commodity; a commission house etc., in fact the student is put through an actual business training here in every possible way. In connection with this college is a complete phonographic institute which afford a thorough training in phonography and typewriting, composition and a general preparation for active life. In addition to the above there is the Fremont Normal College, which was established about three years ago, and has from the first been favored with surprising success.

Churches - The St James Episcopal and the Congregational churches have magnificient edifices. The Methodist Episcopal, Presbyterian, Danish Lutheran, German Lutheran, German Evangelical, Church of Christ, Seventh Day Adventist, and Roman Catholic denominations are all established in handsome homes, and have large attendances..

Societies - Masonic: Fremont Lodge No 15 A F & A M, Signet Chapter No 8 R A & M, Hiram Council No 7 R & S M, Mount Tabor Commandery No 9 K T, Emmet Lodge of Perfection No 5 A A S R.. Odd Fellows: Centennial Lodge No 59, Apollo Encampment No 22, Fremont Canton No 4. K of P: Triumph Lodge No 32, Fremont Division No 21 U R, Damascus Division No 30 U R,; Miscellaneous: Modern Woodman, K of H, A O U W, American Legion of Honor, Royal Arcanum and Grand Army of Republic are all represented here by prosperous bodies. Among the social features of the city is the Fremont Club, with a membership of 125, of which the president is L D Richards and the secretary if John Thomson. The rooms are fitted up with all of the modern applicances, and this merchants club is considered one of the finest in the state. The Women’s Christian Temperance Union is a very large and prosperous organization here, owning an elegant frame building opposite the city park, which is equipped with an ample library and has an auditorium that seats 800 people. The Y M C A has new and elegant quarters; a fine library is being gathered and a fully equipped gymnasiun is well patronized.

Newspapers - Fremonts press representation is by three daily papers, HERALD, TRIBUNE and FAIL(each issuing weeklies) and the Platte River ZEITUNG(German weekly). But few cities of the population of Fremont are more creditably represented in the journalistic field. The HERALD has been under the editorial and business management of N W Smails for the past 12 years, during which time it has been regarded as the standard democratic paper of eastern Nebraska. The TRIBUNE with Frank Hammond as business manager and Ross L Hammond as editor, deals out to its readers the principles of true republicanism. The FLAIL is a daily and weekly published by The Flail Publishing Co. It has been recently removed from North Bend and is having a large and increasing circulation. The Platte River ZEITUNG is a German democratic weekly and has a good circulation of Dodge and adjoining counties.

NORTH BEND - is situated in southwestern part of Dodge county, 16 miles west of Fremont, the county seat, and 63 miles west of Omaha via Union Pacific Ry, on which it is a local point, although trains on F E & MV RR may be taken by driving three miles. The population, according to unofficial reports of 1890 census is 1,000. The Platte river is bridged at this point and makes the town easy of access from Saunders county on the south, and a profitable county on the south, and a profitable trade is thereby done with the rich agricultural district in that direction as well as with that portion of Dodge county in which the town is located. Large shipments of grain, cattle and hogs are made from this point, and this section of the state, on both sides of the river, is a highly prosperous one. North Bend has two elevators, a flouring mill of 100 barrels capacity just erected at a cost of $10,000, two banks each with $50,000 capital, two good hotels, two live newspapers, a commodious brick opera house, and a score of substantial business houses besides many lesser ones. The religious denominations represented are Methodist, Episcopal, Presbyterian and the Congregational and Christian churches. Bonds have recently been voted for the erection of a new city hall.
