What philanthropist will donate the ground upon which to erect a pub lic library building? Do not all speak at onco. ADMIKAL Dkwky has very sensibly equcstod that the money contributed to buy a mansion for him be used to build a h.nio fo. veteran soldiers and sailors. TliK proposition made by Torn E. Parmclo to furnish free of charge enough brick for the erection of a building to bo used for the puhiie li brary in Plattsmouth is a good one, and the citizens should see thatenough money is secured to do the rest. Nkmaha county, where the republi cans in former years were so busy lighting among themselves that they bad little timo to look after the work of carrying tho county, now has one of the most wido-.awke republican or ganizations in tho state, and there seems to be an entire absence of fac tionalism. TiiEKK seems to bo a great disagree ment between the U. dorado silver trust and the laboring men over the matter of wages. It would be a good time for Bryan to go west ard deliver one- of his spoeches. lie would find plenty of idle smelter employes for audience, providing he could got them into the hall. The political party which in 1S02 solemnly doclarod the country to be in the midst ol "moral, financial and political ruin," is hunting for an issue upon which to wage tho next cam paign. What's tho matter with the old platform? "Financial ruin" would sound especially good this fall. Such a plank would causo a laugh through out the state, and would make the campaign a very jolly ono. The new superintendent of tho Lin coln insane asylum accused the retir ing head of tho institution of carrying away things that did not belong to him, and especially raised a howl about the abstraction of some choice bulbs from the asj-lum conservatory. Within a week the new superinten dent made arrangements to send some of the bulbs to friends of his own at North Loup It is a nice quarrel over property that is paid for by the state. TllK magnitude! of foreiyn business in the Philippines is shown by the re ceipts for customs. The total receipts from all sources at the ports of Manila and Iloilo during tho lirt-t four months of IS'.K) were $1,414,030. During the same period ."00 vessels entered and 420 cleared from tho port of Manila and fifty-seven vesse's entered and seventy-seven cleared from Iloilo. Thi? in a limo of war when commerce is practically abandoned. South Omaha has a population of over 12,000, and the recount of thG bal lots cast in the last fall's election shows that the free silver republican cast just 33 votes. The popuiists cast just about one-tenth as many as the democrats. In Omaha out of 2o,000 votes the papulistsand silver republi can combined cast less than 1,500. And still these parties come down to the fusion state conventions with dele gates based on the combined voting strength of all the confuion parties. TRUSTS IX KUKOrtC. A staff corresoondeni of the Phila delphia Press furnishes some inter esting information in regard to trusts in England and on the continent, which shows that monopolistic com binations flourish in Europe and par ticularly in England as well as here a fact which should receive the atten tion of taese who characterize the tariff as the ' mother or trusts," says the Eee. The correspondent says that trusts exist in nearly every country in Europe and are quite common in Eng land. There are over 200 in Germany, as enumerated in the newpapers of that country, and a large number in France. There are more in England than the public is aware of. These British trusts are organized on prac tically the same basis as the combina tions i h this country and their methods of business are s'milar. They have the same general purpose that American trusts have and they seek its accomplishment by like means, even employing coercion. A" quota tion is given from a Birmingham paper in which it is stated that many of the victims of the trusts would give half they possessed to escape from an espionage and dominion they detest but cannot shake off without the gravest business risks. The samo paper refers to this S3stem as having been denounced by the highest au thorities as illegal conspiracy, yet it continues and is growing iQ free trade England. The correspondent points out that in addition to the syndicates and trusts and combinations in England there are a number of incorporated companies with immense capital which praeticilly morioprd i zo many branches of business. There are many orgauiz iiions on the continent which combine and sell conjointly through a central bureau in order to dictate prices and deprive individual members of every vestige of indepen dent; ). No member of such a trust ha a right to take or fullill an order whether at wholesale or retail. In that way the coal industry of Ger many is practically under the control of a combination and there are many such combinations in France The chemical indu-Hry of Franco, like that of Germany, is almost exclusively controlled by a combination. Perhaps the Luropom trusts are somewhat less oppressive generally than those of the United States, but they are essential! y similar in char acter and object. The significant fact, however, is that monopolistic com binations have long nourished in free England .and hare grown so numerous and co strong there as to be the sub ject of serious public discussion Those who assert that the tariff is responsible for trusts here cannot ig nore the existence of like combina tions in a country where there is no tariff protection and they will find it a rather difficult matter to defend their position . The further fact that some of tho strongest of the Ameri can trusts have no tariff protection in creases the difficulty of sustaining tho assertion that tho tariff is responsible for tho industrial combination. WOKKKI) TllK I. KOI SLA I I IS E. Last winter when the legislature was in session the members of the state house gang pretended that they were overworked, and that substantial in creases in salaries and additional em ployes would be absolutely necessary. siys the Opinion. They took oath be fore a committee that thev must have more help and more pay to enable tkein to properly attend to the busi ness of the state. Everybody knew that this was all a pretense, and that both tlie amount of pa y and the number of em ployes should be reduced. It was amusing to hear the sham reformers talk, and it was still more amusing to see them doing night work. A largo amount of mid nigh tgas was burned by clerks who pretended to bend overtbeir desks and sweat with the arduous labors of their job. Tho gas bill of $500 which was charged up against the legislature for the month of December was partly be cause of tho "night work" of tho dep uties, nnd part of it was just ordinary fraud. After tho legislature had adjourned there was a remarkable change in the capitol building. Night work was abolished by mutual consent, and the "reform" oIlieiHls commenced to take junket trips. When warm weather cime a number of them made weekly fishing trips that lapped over oach other. There has not been a time dur ing tiie present season when at lenst ten of the officials and deputies of the building have not been ot f tho city oh some sort of junketing or pleasure trip. But tho fraud worked well with the legislators, most of whom had their vision half obscured by their own in terest in bills which must run the guantli t oJ the executive office. Econ omy seemed impossible in the face of a howling, hungry mob of ehatn reform office holders. INKWiMATION AND OPINION. Chicago is raising its hands in horror and peeping from behind them at the nude figures of nymphs, heroic in size, which adorn the new fountain just erected on the lake front. They were modeled by young women of the Art Institute, under the guidance of the director, Uorado Taft. Those who are not scandalized on moral grounds, but condemn the figures purely from an artistic standpoint, declare that these figures are evidently copied from models whose waists have been ruined by long wearing of the corset. Gorernor Tyler of Virginia has re ceived a letter from a woman of that state, whose name is withheld, asking permission to take the place of eny life-term convict in the penitentiary. She wants to serve eut such a term faithfully in order that she maj- feel that she has not misspent her life. The governor was so impressed with tne idea that the woman was neither a lunatic nor a crank seeking notoriety that he answered her letter at length, explaining that the laws of the state prevented him from granting her re quest. For the second time in a year the voters of Rhode Island hav9 rejected the draft of a new constitution. The draft rejectod last Tuesday by a rote of two to one provided for a change of the state election from April to No vember, for two-year terms for state efficers, annual sessions of the legis lature and made reading and writing a condition of the elective franchise. A sharp fight for the senatorship has already been started in Virginia, where the term of Thomas S. Martin expires on March 4 next. The legis lature to choose his successor is to lie voted for this year, and as Mr. Mar tin's friends have control of the demo cratic organization machinery in Vir ginia, a strong effort of all his oppon ents is being made to commit nomi nees to bo chosen at the primaries to other candidates. There are several already in tho field, particularly Wil liam A. Jones, conerressman from the First Virginia district, who was re elected last year, and Fitzhugh Lee. Back at Mount Vernon, N. YM a bumptious husband who talked back at his better half was placed across ner knee and slippered vigorously and warmly. Tho faculty of doing the right thing at the right time and in the riyht placo in a gift peculiar to tho MX. It is said that Dr. Nanson has re solved to enter the listsas mi antarctic explorer. Letters received in Londtwi from him state that he hopes to havo an expedition organized and ready to start in l!Ml2. Ho is at present en gaged in preparing his plans and will endeavor to shape them so that ho may supplement the work which tho British and German expeditions propose to accomplish. When a horse balks, tho usual plan is to securo a large serviceable whip and Hail tho bide off tho animal. Onco in a thousand times, perhaps, this will make a balky horse work; in the other ninety hundred and ninety-nine cases it is pretty sure to ruin the animal for keeps. Not long ago a I'.eatrice cit izen bought a gen tie family horse, and when he hitched it up one morning it wouldn't go. So he sent into the boue for a novel he was interested in, and sat in tho buggy calmly and comfort ably, s'.oring bis mind with useful knowledge for about three hours. Long before the expiration of that time the horse was dead tired of tho j(b of standing still, and wanted to fctart, but tho citizen said "whoa," in a commanding tone, and whoa it was. Finally tho gentleman put the book down, took up the lines,and said: ''Get up!" And the horse got up, and it has never shown a sign of crankiness since, and probably never will again. Balky horses are generally the best horses, when they can be broken of the unfor tunate vice; it is because thoy are ner vous, high strung animals that they bee une balky. The very worst thing that you can do to a balky horse is to yell at it, and use a whip, and get ex cited. Beatrice Express. The Lincoln Blizzard makes some serious charges against tho manage ment uf the Kearney industrial school. The charges aro right to tho point, and no matter how irresponsible the paper making them, tlie reformers cannot ignoro them honorably. The natural reference is that the delay in answering is caused by there being no answer handy. The Opinion. HOCK lM.rFFS ITKMS. Corn is growing fast, but tho weeds are growing faster. Spring wheat is heading out and looks extra good for this time of year During the rain storm Thursday morning lightning struck a large maple tree that sto.)d within a few feet of Mrs. Bates' house. The next day that tree was cut down for some reason. Joseph Shera set out 2,500 peach treos last spring and they are alive and ding well. When this orchard and Wm. Caldwell's 2,000 peach trers get to bearing, there will be no going to Missouri after peaches from this locality. If tho potato crop is a good one this year, Bock Bluffs can feed a good many people with that vegetable. Wm. Caldwell ha. planted thirty acres, Joseph Shera twelve acres, F Hall six acres, Wm. Sutton four acres and a great ra-in3- from one to three acres. David Allen returned last Thursday from Oklahoma. He brought back hi wife and children, but that is all. Bo fore IXivid went to Oklahoma he had a house to live in, a team to work and a cow to milk. But now he has none of these, nor a dollar with which to buy. This is another verification of the fact that there is no place like Nebraska and that it would be a grand thing for the comfort of some people if they know when they were doing well. ATCHISON ULDHK SIfcillTS. Notice a mean man; he is alwa3's apologizing. A man is not very old if he buys and enjoys ice cream soda. A woman's dress never turns out as she thought it would. n Atchison man complains that his wife not only entertains informally but indefiniteli'. People too good to express a dislike for certain people, give their feelings away by referring to them as "he" or v'he." A young man's troubles are jxvrtly with the people. They won't give him a chance to do business if the old man is around. A woman always likes the hat that some other woman wears better than she likes her own, and blamos the milliner for it. As soon as a man gets a little money saved up some of his folks have trouble, and he has to spend it on a relief expedition to save them. Don't encourage those at the break fast table to tell what thy dreamed the night before. It leads to as much lying as telling fish stories. Most people believe that a man should be permitted to do a reasonable amount of lying about himself, with out calling him down. Society is that place where young people ruin their digestion while look ing for husbands nnd wives with whom they are not happy afterwards. When the boys begin to hang around a house where there are mar riageable girls, the girls' father bo gins to understand his father-in-law better. A large crwd of youag people from this citj went out to a dance near Eight Mile Grove S iturday eveaing.

Sheriff Hherlttr Htarta For Kalian With a Forger and Shortly Afterward An Order For the l'rimnr'a Keturn I. Secnrrtl Coroner Sattler' Timely Wake-up. The forgery case of li. S. Witters, tho fruit tree man of Weeping Water, took on a new phase Saturday evening. In the complaint Witters is charged with performing the crime of forgery in Kansas during the last spring. His wife was in tho city Saturday and em ployed Matthew Gering to defend him in the matter. She claimed to be able to prove that her husband had not been in Kansas for two years, and so her attorney drew up a writ of habeas corpus to prevent Witters being taken to Kansas. The papers were made out and everything fixed up in prope style, but when they went to serve the papers the sheiiff nor prisoner were not to be. found. Sheriff Wheeler had expected Sheriff Murray of Nemaha county, Kansas, to come after Witters, but he did not show up and a team and buggy were secured and they started for Kansas overland, K. W. Hyers go ing along to do the driving. Attorney Gering went before Judtje Ramsey and secured an order request ing the sheriff to bring the prisoner into court Saturday, July . and arm ing Coroner Sattler with the order started him aTter Witters. It was ex pected that the sheriff and prisoner would board the night Missouri Pacific train at some point below here, and Sattler bought a ticket to Mynard and from Mynard to Murray and so on un til the station of Wyoming was reached. At this station Wheeler was in rejdiness to board the train, but took the precaution to look through to see whether or not anyone was on his track. After surveying the situation and seeing no familiar faces he took his prisoner into the car. The train then started and in sodoinggave a quick jerk, arousing a gentleman whom tho sheriff had noticed sleeping with his hat over his face. This proved to be no one but the wily coro ner from EMattsmouth, and after rub bing his eyes a moment recalled the object of his journey. Looking around he spied a man with handcuffs on and near him sat Sheriff Wheeler. The coroner drew the papers and then Wheeler knew it was all up with him. The party went to Nebraska City and laid over there, arriving here yester day noon . Wheeler says that if the train had not made the quick start he would have landed his prisoner over the Kansas line and Cjroner Sattler would have had an opportunity to view the landscape in the Sunflower state. FIRST CAMP MEETING IN AMERICA It Was Held at Ruaavllle, Kentucky a Centory Ago. "Jhe effect of the McGee brothers' preaching especially of John McGee at a Presbyterian quarterly meeting on the banks of Red River, in Ken tucky, was 60 startling, and seemed so clearly to indicate that it was tke re suit of Divine agency or some mysteri ous foree possessed by the preacher, that the news of the occurence spread rapidly in all directions throughout that part of the st ite, and attracted unbounded interest." writes Clifford Howard in the July Ladies' Home Journal . "If it did not at once awaken a responsive religious feeling, it at least excited curiosity, and when it was learned that the McGee brothers were to hold a meeting at Russville, Ky., a ewly settled town in Logan county, near the Muddy river, persona from nil parts of the adjoining country, ir respective of their religious beliefs or church allegiance, prepared to attend. It soon became evident that -the feur walls of a country meeting-house would not suffice to hold the large numbers that were making ready to go to Russ ville.

Those com- ing from a distance were preparod to camp; it would Vie no hardship to them to remain out of doors. The recent experience at Rod River had proved this. It was not expectod by those who were coming that the lodcrlng ac commodations at the village of Ruh I villo would be bufliciont by any means. Why, therefore attempt to house the people? Prepare a camping ground, and let the meeting bo n 'camp' meet ing. This, then, was the origin of camp-meeting; and tho first oue held in America was on the batiks of the Muddy river, near Russville, Ky., in the month of August, 1'J! one hun dred years ago. Not that religious worship had never before been held in the open air,but the special feature of camping out and the nature of the servicos made tho camp-meeting a dis tinctive institution, and characterized this particular gathering on Muddy river as the first of its kind.''

If Mr. Havemeyer had said that keen and losing compe tition in business led to the forma tion of trusts he would be right, for the tariff has nothing to do with the formation of trusts."
