BELVA ON THE SOth.j CLOCKS AT HALJE > PRIGR. U ONE of the most prolific sources of irritation to the poor , when they con trast their condition with that'of the rich , is the different treatment they re ceive at the hands of the law when tried for alleged violations of it. There is no denying the fact that the rich crimi nal is more sure of escape from punish ment than the poor one , and it is even said that the innocent poor man is in far more danger when arraigned than the rich criminal. It is well known that wealthy criminals are not treated like poor ones. They are put into parlors instead of dungeons , they are fed on the best of the land and their prison life is nearly a matter of inglorious ease- When their cases come on for trial they are postponed from term to term , and they often entirely escape punishment , while they seldom or never get the ex act and impartial justice so promptly meted out to the poor man. Charges are freely made that these things , these improper discriminations are induced by corrup't means , cither directly or in directly. The cause of complaint isin- creasing year by year. The strain is growing and may sometime figure ex tensively in the common social relations of the nation. State Journal. A CALIFORNIA exchange , the Daily San Diegan , evidently drew to an oystei sracker and got the whole bakery when i member of its reportorial staff "caught 3n" to this story. If California pro- * iuccs such precocious uiosquitos , what ) f the genus homo : A Mosquito SanDicffO can boast of the most ntclligcnt mosquito that has been heard of in ; he United States , judging by the following an jcdote related to us to-day by a gentleman in ; his city : It appears that ho is particularly lostile to insects and especially mosquitos , uidto guard against depredations has his bed jovered with the best brand of mosquito net ing. On retiring last night he thoroughly icarched for mosquitos , but one large insect iscaped his eagle eye , and as soon as the lamp md been extinguished , commenced to look for 'ood. This practice was kept up until daylight , ind the mosquito's appetite seemed to be in atiable. When the day dawned , the said gen Ionian , was astonished at the sight which was evealed to him. A small army of mosquitos rerc perched on the outside of the netting and rare being fed all night by the single insect rho had the inside track. Careful observation evealed the fact that the mosquito would fill tself up with blood and then put his bill thro * he netting and feed his less fortunate can- idates. THE latest railroad rumors are that he B. & . M. is about to extend a cou- iccting branch to Ogalalla on the U. P. nd that the U. P. contemplates the ex- eution of its Beatrice branch to Pair- lury. President Adams of the U. P. re- ently made a visit to Norfolk , and it is urmised that this means a further up of the Norfolk branch to- rards the northwest , though nothing definite seems to be known of the plans f the company in that direction. "ournal. THE railroad commissioners are at rork now gathering information about assenger and freight rates , looking up tatistics and making themselves gen- rally familiar with the duties of their ew offices. No one , not posted in rail- ray business , would think that there is uch a mass of documentary information i regard to railway rates as the com- lissioners are finding. Lincoln News.
