Have vou got a ticket in the ajrricu tural society. The beet sugar convention meets id Uncoin toilav and means ureal tiunirs for the state. The hobbies of The Joiknal are be- coining w popular tliat every one want to get on and ride. A war of niali proportions appeai-s to be raging in Wyoming lietweeii the cat ilinen ai;u lUstieiH. a numoer have been killed acconiinjr to reports. If tl; work continues the result niav lie tliat swiety in our ueigiilxiriiig state will 1 .;jjjjey,-hat urilled. The reports from Wahington state that Congressman Brvan will secure some patronage while Messrs. M Keighan and Kern w ill be left nit in ly in the cold. Thev will be constrained to cry: "Water, water everv where but .not a drop to drink"'. The Thaver-Bovil case has been ar- igiied and submitted in the United States supreme court and it in expected that a .decision will be handed down soiutime in .January. The prevailing opinion seems to be that Gov. Thayer will still con tinue to hold down the excutive chair. "Senator Paddock is at the head of the '.Senate committee of agriculture and .forestry and those branches will be well ,looked after by him. He also holds a position on the committee on pensions, public lands and Indian depredations, all of which are of importance to the people .of his state. Representative Townsend, of Colorado, will introduce a bill in the house to tuna iarid lands over Jo the states. This is the move in the great scheme of tla irrigation companies and should be sat idown on hard. If the states can handle .such matters the United States can do so ; still better. 'The reports, indicate tliat the prospect jforllon. G. M. Lambertson, of Lincoln, isecuring the appointment as member o! -the interstate railroad commission to ; succeed Judge Cooley are very good. iMr. Lambertson is well fitted for the place and the interests of Nebraska would be casef Lilly looked after should ihe lie selected. The Marsland Tribune passed quietly out of existence with the issue of last week. It is becoming a well-established ,factthata newspaper is a business in stitution and must lie run on business principles in order to niakt; it a success, .and every little town in a new country vwitb only a few business men will not ! support a paper. The message of President Harrison to icongress was a document in which wis- (dotn, strength and progress were prom inent features. Prominent men all over .the nation have express xl very favorable 'Opinions of the reports' therein contained : and also of he measures recommended ; and if the policy outlined by the chief executive is followed the nation will be ithe gainer.

For a long time the question ofartisiau water in the Hat creek basin lias lieen discussed and the action of the B. &. M. lias solved the iiroblem. Tlieie is no question but that artitian wells tan be obtained any where in that country and that too at a depth of less than 1,000 feet and that is not an unreasonable distance. Senator Manderson is chairman of the Senate committee on printing. In this position he ought to be able to relieve the printing fraternity of the unwar ranted conietition of the government in the matter of printing envelops. No ther business has to meet the govern ment in competition and many thou sands of dollars are annually taken from Ihe legitimate channels of trade thereby. l'he press of Xebi-aska should urge Sena tor Manderson to use every effort to have such cometition done away with.

This is but the foundation. To make the society a success it is necessary that a reat deal of work be done. It is an ag ricultural society and the success of it pends, to a very great extent, on the inners. A lew men cannot make it a success. It is governed by the state aws and one member has no more to ,iy in the matter than another, and it is the duty of all to take hold of the work with a will and carry it to a success. Do not neglect the matter. The county attorney of Dawes county, 'A. N. Harbaugh, is getting after the ! gamblers of that county and the saloon keepers of Chadron have been jerked up : and those of Crawford are expected to be served likewise. It is always the case that in the new counties gambling runs openly for a time and then the authori ties take a hand and enforce the law, but iitseemu that Dawes county has had enough court costs to pay as the out fgrowth of the gambling institutions so ithal some move ought to be made. "'When iron goes up look out for good 1 times" is an axiam which has never t fai led to prove true in the United States. 'The reports are that the steel rail mills will be fcept busy during the next year. 'The amount of orders placed are three t times is great as they were ayear.igo, With such indications it is safe to look t forward to a year (if prosperity, such as Ihannot been witnessed for some time., '.The feeling of security wnich is per iineatiiigall sections of the country wfir . timulat capital to seek new fields for iMTestment mod wben that occurs ti e sreet is always the tralatr.

The Nebraska senators are demonstrat- ng tliat they are alive to their duties. Sen. Manderson has indroduced a bill to create postal savings banks; and to cre ate a branch mint at Omaha; one to di vide Nebraska into three judicial dis tricts and one to provide for the publish- ng of notice of sale of real estate on de- reeof the United States court, in the state and county in which the land is lo- ated. This bill was favorably reported on at the last session, but failed to reach a final hearing. It is one of a great deal of importance and will quite likely be passed by the present congress. Senator Paddock has also introduced a number of bills, the most imjiortant of which is his pure food bill and this he hopes to push rapidly through and get it upon the stat ute liooks at an early date. The indica tions are tliat the present session of con gress will be a lively one. The Experienced Editor. The general reader can easily dis tinguish by reading a newspaper whether the editor is of the green and callow class, or whether he has been through the mill, so to speak. If he is one of the former, his paper will bristle with attacks on this shortcoming or that neg lect; on the idiosyncracy of this one or the eccentricity of that one, and the word "gore" seems to be water-marked on every page. With the experienced editor it is different. He has rid himself of the idea that the reformation of the world is his especial work, and sufficient unto the day are the scars he now bears. He has learned that no man is without faults, and he believes tliat one line of praise is worth more than a column of blame in securing needed reforms. He vents no personal spites, nor engages in petty quarrels, and if he does strike at an abuse it is because it is flagrant and its correction demanded by the best in terests of the. public. There is yet another kind of editor the one who realizes his inability to interest his read ers by legitimate news, and so strives to create sensation by attacking prominent men in their weak points, but this sort of tactics never succeeds outside of the largest cities. In the smaller place , this editor is soon short on cadavers i od character, and is forced to shut up shop. ( ' tnj) tni.jn for J -'j-.', w hich we have re ceived seem to touch about all healthy tastes. Itn fiction embraces folklore, serial. s.'H, mlveiilmv zv tu.lid.iy stories. Frank St ukion, i hrk Ross- I, Will Allen Droiugoole, Mary Catherine Lee are a few of the distinguished Htory-writers. Its general articles cover n wide range. Self-education, Business Success, fiirls Who Think They Can Write, Natural History, Kailway Life, Boys and Girls at the World's Fair, Glimpses of Royalty, How to see (rent Cities, Practical Ad- ice are some of the lines to be written on by eminent secialists. Gladstone, De Lesseps, Vuaiili Veivst- lagui, lyrus W . rield, Andrew ( ar- tiegie. Mrs. Henry M. .Stanley are among the contributors.
