''COYERXOIVS PROCLAMATION.
Extra Session of the Leglflatnrc.
t i - . I ttl
e
Our present issue contains the Gov
ernor' Proclamation convening the
Legislature of 'Nebraska Jn special
ession. We confess to surprise at
the extent of the call. The Governor
In the goodness of his heart has, douht
less. yielded to the endlcssand ceaslcss
Importunities that this, that, and the
.'other subject -matters might be em
braced in the call, and thus become
'actionable under the provisions of the
constitution The Legislature will
do better than ever heretofore, if it
transacts all the business provided for,
even in forty days, and do it well.
. We very much doubt the propriety, or
necessity for an extra session, farther
than to ratify the Fifteenth amend
' ment. We do not think the people
expect, or want It ; or that the exigen
cies demand it. However, the Repre
ecntatlves when convened, will re
flect the will and wishes of their con
stituents, and govern themselves ac
cordingly. .
If the Legislature concludes to pro-
. oeed with the consideration of all the
Items embraced In the call, we beg to
call the attention of members to the
Sixteenth count "To provide for the
transfer of State University funds."
1 this looks to a change of ue, or di
Tendon of funds accruing as provided
In Ration Twentv-one of the "act to
establish the University of Nebraska."
then we for one, enter our protest.
. The Regent's Fund especially, should
be kept sacredly for the purpose de
signed and expressed in the law, and
under no consideration, used for any
other purpose.
THE TOTE OF OUR SENATORS.
We publish to-day the speech of
J Senator Thayer on the adml-sion of
Virginia. We have before published
lhat of Senator TirTox. Our Senators
were divided on this question, as were
xnany other good Republicans, and we
see no cause of complaint as to either
of them. They undoubtedly acted in
accordance witlrtheir honest convic
Hons. Republicans In Nebraska and
elsewhere, also differ on the question
e pamed, and it is not strange that in
Nebraska, each of our Senators find
members of their own party, agreeing
with the one and differing with the
other .
c From a private letter received from
- Senator Tiiton. on thla subject, we
"fxiract the following :
- -On the 10th of April, 1SG9, Congress
paased an act for the submission of a
Constitution of .Virginia to a vote of
- the people, and provided that before
the State could be admitted to the
Union she would have to ratify the
"VFlfUenth amendment to the constitu
tion of the United States, viz : "The
riaht of citizens of the United States to
vote shall not be denied or abridgedby
the United States, or any State, on ac
count of race, color, or prctioxis condi-
won of servitude."
c The President of the Uniied States
gild in his message of Dec. Cth, 18G9:
"In Virginia the election took place
Cth of Julv; 1869: the Uovernor and
I.leuL Governor elected have been In
et&lled; the Legislature, met and did
all required by this resolution, and by
ail the reconstruction acts of Congress,
and abbtained from all doubtful au
thority. I recommend that her Sen
ators and Representatives be prompt
ly admitted to their seats, and that the
State bo fuhy restored to its place In
the family of States."
The House of Representatives pass
ed a Bill at once for the States' admis
sion, she having previously, also, rati
fied the Fourteenth amendmeut of
the Constitution.
. In the Senate, an effort was being
rmade to impose other conditions upon
her before her admission, when about
twenty Republlcaa Senators decided
trltn l'resident urant, mat, in as
much as she had gone as far as the
most radical States, she ought to "be
promptly admitted." And among
these were the lawyers of the Judi
ciary Committee. W ith them I voted
noTf against certain amendments,
and Senator Thayer voted "yea."
We are not disposed to either extol
or condemn In this case, because we
tlo not consider this issue, if any, of
kufUcient Importance to demand such
c a course. As before said, other Sena
I tort an d Rep rese n tat i ves i n Con g ress o f
the Republican party, whose radical
'Ism none doubt, thought and voted on
both 6ldes of the Virginia question.
'It la said by those who differ with
either of our Senators, that they do
cot represent the Republican party in
Nebraska. So far as we have observed,
1 there Is about the same difference with
ether members of the party in Nebras
ka, as with the Senators, and conse
quently no great issue.
Mr. Tipton voted for Morton's pre
amble which certainly obviated the
necessity of any further conditions
bfclng Imposed, In as much as that
caused Virginia, if admitted, to admit
that she passed the Fifteenth amend
ment "in good faith, as a precedent
condition," and hence any faltering
, en her part would be cause for such
penalty as might be found constitu
tional. At to Senator Tipton, with whom
cotempor&ry has taken issue public
Iji fe have only to say, as a journal
ist representing his immediate home,
that while a knowledge of his radical
ism would have warranted the con
clusion that he might vote against the
Bill &s it came from the Ilouse, there
. is no dissatisfaction with his vote un
der the circumstances, which'he has
fully and satisfactorily explained in
his speech, and iu a former letter, and
the one now published.
Otoe, Sac, Fox and Ion a Indian Treat
ies. The President has, we see. with-j
drawn the Indian Treaties, spoken of
In our columns a few weeks w'uee, un
der the provisions of which the "St.
Louis and Nebraska Trunk," ud the
"Atchbion and Nebraska" Railroad
Companies were to be allowed to pur
chase the lands cf these Indians. We
Lave not changed our opinions here
tofore expressed, in regard to Indian
Treaties. In this instance, however,
re are confident that great delay, and
consequent wrong will be the result to
the moet populous portion of our
KUte. We refer to the building of the
"Trunk" road. We have no hesi
tancy in asserting that the comple
tion of this enterprise, is more needed
to-day, and woald confer greater ben
efits on a greater number of the peo
ple in Nebraska, than any other now
contemplated, and yet, it has encoun
tered more direct and downright.' op
position. It may be, and is delayed,
but it cannot- be defeated. Every
Railroad, leading West from the Mis
souri river, except perhaps the U. P.
is, and will be incomplete, and wil
fail to meet the wants and demands of
the people and our trade, without It
Rut more, and in detail at anothc
time. In the meantime, we say to
the friends A the "Trunk," be in
koou clieer: it is neituer ueaa, nor
hlcepcth.
A few weeks ago a scurrilous and
cowardly article appeared in the Ne
maha Valley Journal as Washington
Correspondence, in which both the
private and judicial character of Judge
O. P. Mason was wantonly assailed
We first thought to pass it by in si
Ienee, and perhaps the less said iu re
lation to it now, the less importance
will attach to it. We feel it a duty
however, as a journalist, and indepen
dent of any personal or partizan
friendships, to say that Judge Mason's
official career has been especially
marked by a degree of ability and pre
cision hitherto not excelled, to say
the least by any other occupant of the
Bench in the State. lie has been par
ticularly vigilant in seeing the laws
faithfully and fearlessly executed
has prosecuted the business of his of
fice with such dispatch that thecoun
ties in his District have been saved
thousands of dollars. We are glad to
see that a number of journals in the
District have spoken out in vindica
Mnn of the Judire. If we cuess the
author of the article in question cor
rectly, we have only to say, if hisju
dip? nl ormine is kent as unspotted as
Judge Masoxi's there will be no com
plaint.

To Correspondents.
We have on hand communications
"Legislation in regard to the Prac
tice ofMedicine," by John Flaneoan
"Select Schools." by Edux "Char
acter," by Jannette IIakding, and
an interesting letter from G. R. Reed
er, Houston, Texas, for which we are
unable to find room this week. They
shall all have attention in due time.
m m
Life Association of America.
The most of our business men are
aware that recently efforts were made,
and ore yet being made to establish a
Branch Board of the Life Association
of America In this place. The prin
cipal feature recommending this over
ordinary Life Insurance Companies,
is that sixty-six per cent of monies
paid In Is loaned out in our own com
munity. It is thought that there Is
to-dar. monev enouerh going out of
our town, and out or our fctate, w
meet a very large share of the bank
ing wants of the community. This
feature is therefore considered impor
tant. It wa3 thought by some that
we might not get the use of the mon
ey. Both the President and Solicitor
for the South Platte Department have
given us their pledge that if we make
up a Board of ten in Brownville, we
6hall have the use of the funds to
loan. The Board at its last meeting,
Thursday last, passed the following
resolution :
Resolved, That in case a Branch
Board of the Life Association of Amer
ica be established in the City of
Brownville, under the efforts now be
ing made, then the people of Nemaha
county shall have back the per cent,
for loan, on complying with the regu
lations of the charter in such cases
made and provided.
That indefatigable and go-ahead
Railroad man, II. Davis, of Canton,
Mo., Is still giving his whole soul to
the Misssissippi and Missouri River
Air Line Railroad. We copy the fol
lowing from the Canton Press.'
We appreciate the anxiety of all
parties interested in the success of the
M. & M. R. A. L. Railroad to hear of
the progress mado in the work and the
prospect of its early completion, and
we have hitherto enveavored to keep
our readers and the public fully posted
upon every movement. And we are
now happy to announce that negotia
tions for the Iron have been so far
cotnpletod as to give aassurance that
an abundant supply will be forthcom
ing as soon as required for the com
pleted grade.
We have been permitted to see a let
ter from responsible parties in New
York announcing their readiness to
furnish all needful supplies, and the
good news has so stimulated the con
tractors that they have at once re
sumed active operations, though pre
viously intending to await the advent
of Spring.
All ti:at is now needed is the hearty
co-operatjon of the friends of the en
terprise, aud especially the towns to
be most benefitted by its completion,
to give appropriate "aid and comfort"
to those who have assumed the chief
responsibility in the matter. As a
matter of fact it is worthy of note that
the energetic President of the compa
ny, II. Davis, has himself from his
own private means footed the bills in
curred for engineering, and other con
tingent expenses, because local and
muuicipal subscriptions could not be
made available until a considerable
portion of the work was completed.
Mr. Davis is deserving or ail praise
for his unflagging zeal and euergy,
and at this stage of the work it cer
tainly would be but right aud just that
Canton and Lairranxe should take
hold with increased zeal and determi
nation and thus haeten the completion'
of this long delayed, yet really Impor
tant and deserved worK.
The Quincy Whig in publishing the
proceedings of the late meeting of the
Board of Directors of the Q.f M. & P.
R. R,, of which Mr. Church gave au
accouut . in our last issue, notices our
aid as follows :
We learn from Mr. Church, of
Brownville, Xeb., that on the 20th of
last month, that city voted to take
$00,000 additional stock in this road,
swelling the subscription of Nemaha
county, Nebraska, to $278,000! Hur
rah for Brownville and her enterpri
sing citizens, who take such a lively
interest in the building of our road.
May their example be followed by all
friaads of the road.
AYe were favored the past week with
a visit from Rev. J. E. Chcbcii, of
Michigan. Mr. C. is the father of J.
8. Churcit, former editor of the Ad
vertiser. He U v eil pleased with Ne
braska, Brownville aad surroundings,
and we hope he may c?ludo to lo
cate among u.
Number of School Districts In Ne
maha County.
Dr. McGrew, County Superinten
dent of schools in this county has,' In
compliance with the school law, num
bered the districts In numerical order
throughout the county, and kindly
furnished ui with the new arrange
ment for publication. They were for
merly numbered only as sub-distriets
in each precinct. We now give the
new number and the old one. Thus
it will be understood what is now the
official number of each district, and
by which It will hereafter be known.

From report and Mr. Fisher's recom

GOOD FOR BKOWXYILLE.
On the 29th ult. the city of Brown
ille voted on a proposition for the
city to subscribe $60,000 to the capi
tal stock of the Brownville. Fort
tearney & Pacific Railroad, which
resulted iu a unanimous vote in favor
of the proposition. We sometimes
hear of a crooa thing, but seldom do
we hear of every body being right ;
out every body is certainly ngnt on
he question of railroads, in Brown
vine. It is true that where there is
inharmony and discord, but little is
accomplished, as Brownville hereto
fore has realized in reference to rail
road matters. We are sure that hence
forth the people of that city will real-
ze that "in union there is strength,"
and that harmony, wisdom and una
nimity of action will mark all their
enterprises. If this shall be so, they
will not only get the road under con
sideration, but other railroads, and
Brownville will ultimately transcend
the expectations of her most sanguine
admirers. Tecuniseh Lmeftam.

This is decidedly the most Important invention
of modern times. Its simplicity and wonderful
adaptation both for HO USE and CAR WINDOWS is
penectly astonishing: accomplishing everything
mat can possioiy oenesireu, anu yet being c it kaikk
than any other window fast. For house windows it
dispenses with weights and pulleys, operating
equally well on top and bottom sashes, allowing
either to be raised or lowered as much or little as
wished to secure ventilation, and yet be secnrely
locked at every point, from the intruder or burular,
ana win never set out or order, it has the peculiar
element of locking itselfin whatever position you
leave it. For steiim or horsd car wihdows they are
finished in a variety of styles, maelng an elegant
nnish fort lie ear windows and the only arrangement
