Reer Drinking at I nlversittes.
A conespouauw ui tne. sprtnguei.i
i Republican, writing from Germany,
J gives the following account of the beer
drinking habits of the professors and
students of the German universities:
I don't wish to overdraw the pic
ture or paint it in false colors. I w ish
it merely understand that the Germans
as a race, are very fond of beer. Many
of the old Heidelberg professors drink
of an evening, thirty or' forty glasses
in addition to what they have taken
during the day. They do no manual
labor" they drink not from ' thirst, but
because they are accustomed to it;
they take pride in boasting of the
great number of glasses they have
swallowed at one sitting.
j I have le-iitd of German students
j that have tii 11:1k seventy two to sev
1 eity-three glasses of an evening, and
j German beer glasses are not wine
: glasses in ni-.-, either. The student
1 who has arrived "to such perfection
that he can s'ow away seventy glasses 1
i and over is a pel o.; the university, I
1 antl especially with the prole-worn. He

wreral ot the American student
in the university are hard at wot it f.,i
the championship, and two or time
who have reached thirty or forty
glasses at one setting tell me that sev
' -
enty glasses look a long way ahead of
them yei. in nearly an the shop win-
j dowsof Heidelberg there is a promin-
ent display of photographs of the vari
ous student corps, classes and societies,
arranged and grouped about in every
position imaginable. Many of the
groups are taken in the grounds of the
famous old castle, showing-the grand
old ruins in the back grounds, and ev
ery student is represented with a mug
of beer deposited on a table within his
reach. If two or three or more stu
dents have their photographs taken in
a group, that they may distribute them
among their intimate friends and
brother students, to be remembered by
in after years, the inevitable beer-mugs
are sure to be prominent' features in
the pictures. The beer-mug is their
trademark." '
The surplus revenue of the post
office department next year is esti
mated at orer 3.000,000. The last
year of democratic" rule, 18J0, the de
ficit xvas $10,000,000. It is as well to
keep then landmarks in rhtnd : about
this lime, as the democrats uy they
are going to get possession in- ld4 in
order to "rs-forrn'Mhings.
A Sample Free Trade Argument.
'1 he Omaha Herald, seeing the signs
of the limes, has concluded that it had
hi tter get in shape to re-afllrm its as-
si rtion of i90 thatdemocr:icy is not
a free-trade party, because free trade
is impracticable," and Mr. .1. Sterling
Morton has determined not to argue
the tariff question with the Republi
can; but tt little paper down at Platts
month, which has not yet received
news from headquarters, is still peg'
ging a way at the subject with all the
energy that Filosophor Peri v Infused
into its diminutive carcass. In its
hist issue it learrauges and plagair-
ies a Chicago Tribune article with the
following result:
There is a panic in the .steel rail
manufacting business in America just
now. :md a number of the works have
closed. The fact is, the excessive tar
iff of $ h , ton has had th effect of
so stimulating this species of maun
fad lire that there is an excessive sup
ply on hands bevond the demand of
the trade, and the pric has biiiMenly
dropped from 3-W to 312 a ton., and
the smaller lit in? aro obliged to close
their works, throwing thousands of
mechanics ami laborers out of employ
in nt, to wait until the present stock
is used up. or sell at the reduced price
that the present market affords with
the risk of loss. The fjict is
these
in urn lactones nave tieen making it
proiit of about 10 per cent out of the
business, until now there Is a halt in
the business of rail-oad building, and
they are brought face to face with the
fact that (heir plot cot ion does not
protect."
Theie has been a eousiderable agi
latioii in the sieel and iron market
caused to some extent, uy over pro
duction, to some extent by the fact
steel rail prodiiceis have in the past
two years placed too high prices on
their products, and to some extent by
the fear of the possible control of tar
iff legislation by tin- free trade demo
cratic party. IJut the Journal over
estimates the misfortunes of the situa
tion. Very few mills have quit woik
and it is expected that they will short
ly resume. However, these fats are
of little value so far as the considera
tion of the tariff question is concerned
excepting as tliey show that our pro
tected manufacturers cannot exact
too high figures from the market with
out suffering; for it is a matter of fact
(which the Journal forgets to men-
tion(, that more steel have been im
ported from England in 18J (notwith
standing American over-production)
than have been imported timing the
name length of time during any year
within the last decade.
Another matter which dees uot bear
particularly upor. the tariff question,
but about which it is well enough to
bj truthful, is the matter of railroad
construction. The Journnal says
"that there is a halt in the business of
railroad building." The fact is that
thus far in lt82 about ,000 miles of
new railroad have been bdilt, an am
ount much larger than has been con
structed in any oue year heretofore.
The current number of the Railway
Gazette begins an editorial article with
this sentence: "There is a great deal
of talk heard about the enormous raiir
road construction of the present year,
which is alleged to l e so mu?h In ex
cess of the real needs of th? country,
and which it is thought will have an
injurious effect upon all railroad prop
erties." The Journal, like ihe average
free-trade advocate, never attempts to
deal with matters of fact without deal
ing in matters of fancy.
Now let us look at the argument.
The Journal says that the manufactu
rers have been making a profit of 100
per cent. It also says that a reduction
from SjO to 42 a ton has compelled a
great many of these manufacturers to
stop work. I one hundred per
cent of 12? The original Journal ar
ticle, as it appeared in the Chicago
Tribune, contained the proof that the
larger tirm3 could not afford to sell
steel rails at 812, and that they had
put the price at 842 (below cost ) to find
a market.
The Join rial quotes the tariff oti stel
mils at 32i per ton. In a port ion of
it article which we did .ot copy j al,u l"e umaha Herald, it cleat ly tie
above, it shows that the price of steei , veloped upon them to -show ni." this
. .;i. in I.iveniool is 2T, tier ton. and I terrible republican iniouity at Plaits-
J .? " " -- ' s I
that the freight from Liverpool to
New York is 2.oO per too. This
would make the price of English rails
in New York (without the tariff; ex
actly S27.50 per ton. I
If there were ever a case where a

If our steel manufacturers lose mon
ey aud stop business, with rails at 42
per ton, how long would they last in
competition with English rails at 327.
r0 per ton ? Peihaps the Journal man
desires to kill off steel rail manufactu
ring in America, and give England a
monopoly of the business. If so, his
free trade doctrine is, as fie demon
strates, the very weapon to be used.
The above article was-clipped from
the Omaha Republican of Dec. 6tb,aud
shows that others who pretend to read
the Journal's articles on the we trade
question, have noticed how that pro
found editor plagiarizes from the New
York Sun. Chicago Tribune and other
free trade organs.

Our Surveyor General.
Before the memory of the late grand
Jury is entirely obliterated, it woi.1-1
lie well for republicans to impreas up
on the minds of their democratic
friends that the surveyor general of
Nebraska has been thoroughly investi
gated, and that the refusal by a large
majority of the members of the grand
jury to indict is equivalent to an en
dorsement of him as an honest repub
lican oflice-holde,r. This vindicates
republicanism no less than it does .Mr.
George S. Smith, the surveyor general.
It is about a year since the Omaha
Herald which has from time to time
for political reasons done as much
slandering of good men as the next
one began its howl against what is
termed the ".Surveyor's Ring of Platts
mouth." The people had by that jour
nal been given to .understand that in
connection with the office of surveyor
general great and glaring frauds had
been committed. When Mr. Morton
started out on the stump, among oth
er strange devices his banner bore the
Herald's old inscription, "Down with
the Surveyor's Ring of liattsinouth."

State Fair Offlt-ers.
The Farmer wishes t'j speak a kind
word in behalf of the present orticers
of the State Board of Agriculture, that
they are entirely comiietent is evedent
from tiie success of last year, and the
perfect harmony iu which they worked
is one of the things to recommensl
them. It is no boy's play to take the
place of one of these ofheers during
the state fair, and as each one of them
have been tried and found efficient,
seems to be no reason for a change.
Past experience has proven the folly
of giving up tried and true officers for
inexperienced ones. Our StaU Board
