B In closing up tho saloons on Sunday , H tbo mayor of Omaha is entitled to the m respect and support of all lovers of law Hf and decency. Hj Those Omaha papers who aro fight- H ing the Mayor for closing the saloons Hf on Sunday are simply exceeding the Hl limit of decency , and exhibit an amaz- Hj' ingly low degrde of morality. It is Hf simply infamous that a metropolitan Hj , daily , in this day , would pursuo such a f course. H | There is to be another international Hb yacht race this autumn , and our Eng- 1 lish cousins having plucked up enough BI courage to challenge the winner of the B America's cup. The earl of Dunraven E has sent the challenge and the sport Hj loving people of both counties will look Hj forward to the contest with great inter- Hj est. The cup has been so gallantly de- K fended in the past , that Ameaicans are H | not alarmed at the prospect of another l'- - " * attempt to carry it to England , and there f is no doubt that the challenge will be 1 eagerly accepted. Very likely , too , the 1 duty of keeping the cup here may fall Hf to a New York yacht man. Bj The terrible catastrophe that wreck- H cd all the German and American men of B war in the harbor at Samoa will probably B persuade the president and the emperor B that procrastination is the thief of time B an that they had better settle the dis- H | pute as soon as possible and release their B navies from the obligation of watching B eacu other in so dangerous a locality. ft The English man of war had her steam B UP an was starting away to another B port , or there would have been another B vessel and crew added to 'the list of H | casualties. A harbor with a coral reef K attachment is a poor place m which to B ride out a hurricane. H The secretary of the interior , from H i all appearancesis carefully deliberating H | as to whom he shall select to negotiate HI with the Indians for the opening of the H | Sioux reservation in Dakota. The f ail- H " > ure of the Vilas commission to come to H a definite understanding is still fresh in B mind. The task is certainly a most H delicate one and can be entrusted only to men who are conversant with the In i dian question and who have the confi dence of the Sioux. The apparent slow- Hj ness of Secretary Noble in the matter is Hj galling to the people of Dakota , who are H impatient to rush the negotiations. H I There can be but little question that the HJ secretary of the interior has taken the Hp | proper course and that the opening of H \ the reservation will be brought about as H soon , as expedient. Hi H , Public Printer Benedict went in- H to office with the announced intention H of reforming the public printing office , H and in order to make his administration H seem more pure and more economical , B bitterly attacked the administration of B - his predecessor , the late S. P. Hounds. B But Mr. Benedict turned out to be one B of the most brilliant specimens of bogus B reformer that the late administration B produced. The work of his office is B- behindhand and he has - < hopelessly , man- B aged to use up his appropriation , in a B reckless fashion , in spite of the law which limits the amount to be spent in j each quarter of the fiscal year. On the * whole , it seems that a new broom is * " * ' sadly needed in this office , and that it will have to be wielded with a vigorous hand. Lincoln Journal. A brief period of sober reflection convinces those who fought and bled for the honor , that legislative life is a waste of energy and a strain on one's character. Honest men retire from the ' = * . strife with pleasure , while the disrepu tables cling to it while there is a dollar in sight. The former will not stoop to low trickery and scandalous schemes to ; secure support for measures of public good , but cannot escape the annoyances % which surround legislatures. The latter are at home in the tide of dissipation < and dishonesty and flourish on booty i and bestiality. This condition is charge- r able to the indifference of the better ' - class of citizens. They refuse to take * an active part in the primaries and con- - • ventions and permit these foundations ; * * of official life to be controlled and man- | ' a _ ged by schemers and place hunters. j * = ; " The present administration is dis posed to a friendlier recognition of the somewhat poorly paid services and abil ities of newspaper men than any of its predecessors. Mr. A. B. Ball , editor of . the Tccumseh Kepublican , has been ap pointed register of the land office at Salt . ' Lake City. This is the only land office " * - in Utah , and one of the best in the coun- I l . try. Mr. Ball is a native of Indiana , T and has been an able fighter in the Re publican ranks for a quarter of a cent- L ury. Having a personal acquaintance : with Harrison , his paper at Teeumseh was the first in this section to hoist the J name of the successful candidate to its mast head. Mr. Ball had strong recom mendations from this state , Indiana and Colorado , where he was favorably known \M \ - to leading Bepublicans , and the Journal V , congratulates him upon his appoint- | m ment. Lincoln Journal. ! M The state board of transportation has settled tbo much vexed question as to who shall bo its ' secretaries and stenographer for the next two i years. After a much prolonged and very spirited session of the board recently , J. H. Gilkeson of Saunders , TV. S. Garber of Web- ster and L. W. Gilchrist of Box Butte were elected secretaries and C. H. Holmes of Gage , , „ ; . ' stenographer. The board had agreed that in t electing its secretaries It should take one from c < „ each congressional district and that one should j be a lawyer , one a business man and one a rep- , i - . . resentativofanner. J.B. Gilkeson , who is the e L democratic secretary , is the lawyer , "W. S. J * Garber tho business man and L. TV. Gilchrist the farmer. The selections were well made ( fj > from forty-seven candidates and the action of | fvt ' the board will doubtless pro veto be judicious. a > " > ; : = = r = = = = $ r V-- t KT .

Tho abevo is tbo name of a new sonr which we havo Just received from tbo publishers , and for beuuty and sentiment is without doubt the bc8two havo yot soon. Wo give below tbo words of tho first verso I've a darling waiting for me , Pretty bluo oyes bo full of gloo. Tiny red lips aro lisping papa , while from him I'm away so far. When last I left him in bis mother's arms , Sleeping sweetly , fearing no harm , Quickly I stolo from his forehead so fair This little lock of his goldon hair. Chorus A curl from tho Baby's head , yes , a curl from tho Buby's head. It will nover grow old , this trcasuro of Gold- Next my brart I'll wear it till dctid. A curl from my Baby's head , yes , a curl from my Baby's head. It will never grow old. this treasure of gold , This curl from my Baby's head. The second verso is oven better than tbo first , and with tho musio , which is wrltton with a beautiful waltz melody , it makes one of the prettiest songs yot written. Tho title page is adorned with a beautiful lithographic pict ure ot tho author's little baby boy , with long golUen curls. Tho publishers will send tho abovo to any address for 12 2-cent stampB. As the song retails for GO cents in tho musio stores , this is quite a liberal offer. Address all orders to J. C. GROENE & CO. , 30 & 40 Ar cade , Cincinnati , Ohio. THE LAWNS. [ From VIck's Magazine. ] The artistic arrangement of the lawn is to tho owner of every country place , a matter of tho first importance , or should be. Time was when flower beds plentifully besprinkled its green surface , and mado of oven tho smallest plat a very garden of brilliant coloring , at tracting the eyo of every beholder. But the fashions chango horo as well as elsewhere.and behold , now , tho popular taste would point to ward tho larger expanse of green with its mod icum of shrub and tree , while Uiu old tlmo flower bed and its occupants smilo at you through tho garden fence. Care should be taken to have a firm , beautiful sod in tho first place , to which end a thorough preparation is essentiar.and.whether it is to be soded or sown , frequeut top-dressing will insure its continued beauty , especially if cut close and often. As to tho arrangement , a continuous variety in form , color and expression would lend them selves to the eye and hand of the true lover of artistic beauty. Here a certain species of tree , dainty and delicate in nature , yet perfectly hardy , would form a beautiful mass , when grouped , like the dwarf arbor vita ? and Irish juniper , while there are for separate planting the varieties of Norway spruce , white spruce and hemlock , tho larger varieties to be kept within bounds by cutting back , while the dwarfish kinds may follow their will. Congressman Laird. [ From the Lincoln Journal. ] Sergeant at Arms , E. C. Parkinson , of the senate , who has been in Washington , D. C , for a couple of weeks , was in tho city yesterday. It is understood that as soon as he passes the civil service examination ho will be appointed special pension examiner by his erstwhile friend. Corporal Tanner. "In my short stay at the national capital I saw Congressman Laird frequently , and I was very much sur prised at his condition , " said tho sergeant. "Ho is under the doctor's care and in a short time he will be himself again. There is no reason , whatever , to think that his illness will be fatal. He has a good appetite and does considerable work every day. The boys out here ought to encourage him by writing once in a while. It would do him good. A little quiet and care will bring him around. " In a Critical Gondi 'ton. . On Monday evening of this week , Charlie Suiter , a fireman on the TJ. P. out of Omaha , Jormerly a B. & M. employe out of McCook , was seriously injured in a wreck in tho vicini ty of Hammond's ice house , North Omaha. The engine toppled over , Suiter receiving a dislocated shoulder and injury to spine. His condition , says tho Bee , is critical. Cupid Hath Wings. "Faint heart fair lady never won. " Thus saith some Gentile Solomon ; But bravest hearts , since time's beginning , Have lost fair ladies after winning. Kemper Bocock , in The Century Bric-a-Brac. J. A. Snyder , of McCook , purchased the furniture of the Sargent house on Saturday last and the hotel is now under the manage ment of Mr. John Morgan , an able and experi enced hotel man. Harper left Sunday even ing for Kansas City. Several parties mourn his departure County Treasurer Goodrich came up from Lincoln , Saturday evening , re turning again Tuesday evening to complete some real estate deals he has on hand. Courier. Postmaster Pearsonof ; New York , has given out a long statement defining his posi tion. He says noempJoyo of the New York postofllce has been treated with undue severi ty under his regime. He has never , he says , allowed himself , in the performance of his duties , to be swayed by either personal or political bias. Mr. Pearson is evidently very anxious to keep his head on his shoulders. The Connecticut legislature has the power to commute sentences of death. A strong lob by was present the other day when a case in point camo up and the nutmeg lawmakers let the man off from the penalty of his crime. Connecticut needs a revision of her constitu ? ' tion. It is a wonder since her legislature is a criminal court of appeal , that it has time to at tend to anything else. Hon. John M. Thurston is to deliver tho annual address at the commencement of the Iowa state university at Iowa City in June.
