THE SESSIO.V.
Ti e Extra Session of the Nebraska
State Legislature convenes on Thurs
day, the ICth, and it is expected that
measures of vital importance to the
people will come Lefore it for consider
ation.' These measures are pretty
generally understood Ly the members,
and it is not to Le suppoted that any
thing we might say would materially
affect their action, neither do we feel
inclined, at present, 10 offer many sug
gestions. We have a few wcrds to
say, however, upon the general line of
policy, and do it without "ftar, favor,
or hope of reward" further than the
general good of Nebraska. We ask,
and expect, that the memlers of the
present Legislature will act in the same
spirit, and will Legislate for the good
of the people, ana be neither Icught
cor bullied by any locality or clique.
We all know that justice requires cer
tain measures to be enacted at the com
ing session, and we also believe that
an immense pressure will be brought
to bear to defeat tbe ends of justice;
and what we ask is that every man
stand firmly by the right, regardless cf
the whiuings, threats, or ferco of those
who oppose them. We have heard it
eaid that certain measures must not be
agitated because it would 'divide the
Republican p my." W look upon this
as the sheerest nonsense, and take the
ground that the Republican ptmy can
not be divided or ruptured Ly duing
right. A straight-forward course can
da nothing more than throw off the
scum'of the party those ho are Re
publicans only so far as it is to their
individual interssts to Le so. We be-
lieve the r;.ir:y is riyht, an J have right
views upon the measures to La enacted
at the coming session. It is the few
who desire to control the party that are
so very fearful of a rupture. Let th
party go ahead in their enactment of
just measures and let the re? ponsiLility
rest wi'h those ho oppose tnerri. In
justice will Le far more likely to create
a split in the Republican ranks of Ne
braska than justice. Away with men
that fear to do right because some
body opposes them. We want none
of them, and the politics of Nebraska
will he moreheahhy without them.
Let justice have her sway, and stand
from under, all you who oppose it

The M isonic Fraternity of Nebras

the different localities for the location
of the institution. We see that the
City Council of Nebraska City has of
fered to donate the city park if the Col

the Lodges at Nebraska City will offer
a handsome Lot.us besides. What can
riattsmcuth do? The loca'ion cf this
institution will be cf great benefit to
whatever locality secures it, 03 the

It is of gretit importance to every

is now in Nebraska City, and stated be

the small sum of five hundred dollars
would be f-uhicient to advertise Nebras

in that country. He has already, at
his o.v:i expense, advertised this part
of the country to a considerable extent
Ly writing h Wivt, etc., and has brought

that this letter wriu'ng is the Lest meth

The fear pervades the whole coun
try that the grasshoppers will do an irn

and the southern portion of Nebraska
this season. The eggs are now hatch
ing out by the millions. They are de
posited over the whole face of the coun
try from the lower prat of this county,
clear through to the southern part of
Kansa. It was hoped, and supposed by
many, that the changeable weather
during the winter and early spring
would prevent the eggs hatching; but
this hop 3 haj proven futile. We learn
that they are at work upon the wheat
in Kansas alreadj', and are making
their appearanco in vast numbers in
the southern part of this Slate, and as
far north us Weeping Water. It is
be lieved Ly many that the' will migrate
as soon as they are large enough to fly
well, but we can see little reason for
this theory so long as there Is plenty
fcr them to eat in the locality where
they are hatched. It is to Le hoped
they will seek some other country, and
allow Nebraska another year of plenty

The Omaha Herald cannot miss an
opportunity to fling out its bitter hatred
of all ministers of the Gospel, and re
ligious institutions. In a recent issue
ii says : "At the risk of exposing this
paper to the benignant criticism of some
pulpit regulator of secular affairs, we
bring to public attention the Omaha
Academy of Music." It could not
make a notice of the Academy of Mu
sic in an ordinary manner, but'must
bring in its antipathy to religion by an
attempted sarcasm upon preachers in
general, terming them "pulpit regula
tors of secular affairs." If it does not
like religion, and has such a great dis
guslfor religious people and their wcys.
why don't it discuss theology, and stop
this everlasting endeavor to ridicule ii?
It should be the business of a newspar
per to uphold religion. But if it does
not see fit to do so, it should at least be
manly in its opposition.

The Omaha I braid appears very
much worried about something which
it thinks the radicals are going 10 do at
the coming session of the Legislature.
It does not prete id to say what that
"something" is tljat is to be done, but
tries to beslobber Radicals on the north
o' Piatte by intimatimg that they ought
to oppose the lalanco if tho party.
The following is a fair specimen of its
daily howlings : :
If Omaha end North Platte is to be
favtd the humiliation and inju-tice
sought to be enforced Ly the South'
Platte sectioi.ai radical-1, the Democrat
is minority must unite with such North
Plane radicals a' art not disposed1' iu
submit to the gerrymandering scheme
of D. Butler Co to resist them.
This ihey will do, utu-rly regardless of
party considerations, and we doubt not
they will be met by s i. h men as Frost.

frank and hearty co operation upon
this ground.
"The wicked flee when no man p'ir
sue.h'' would apply ve ry well to the
Herald just now- We have cot heard
of any "injustice sought to bo enforced
arainst Omiha and North riatte."
Will the Herald be so condescending
as to come down a few pegs and ex
plain what this ?reat "injustice" is, be
fore it a3k "Frost, Parmalee, Abbott
and o'hers' to jcin hands with the De
mocracy? If it refers to the districting
of this S:aie, will it enlighten people in
rej-.ird t j the "injustice sought to Le
t !:. .u;. "t:er. We doubt
not the Herald feels l.ke it deserved
some punishment for inciting and jus
tifying the Legislative mob lat winter;
but it need not attempt to engender the
same feeling throughout all p'cr h
Platte. The RadicnU of South riatte
dj noi desire to force any injustice up
on even the Omaha Herald, and assur
edly not upon the North PLitte people
as n mass. But they do ask that some
of the commonest rights of the South
Platte be respected. Does the Herald
object togiving-all portions of the SttUe
their just representation? and if not
will it show wherein any "injustico is
sought to be enforced"' Lefore it again
repeats such wholesale charges and at
tempts to excite prejudice before the
Legislature is iven convened.
