and has the appearance of business.
We have learned sinco that little
doubt exhts in tlie minds of the orig
inators of the project that the peti
tion for n proposition for precinct aid
will be so" numerously signed as to
bring i to a voteivrtd leave no doti bt
of its ultimate triumph. All honor
to the public spirit that originated
it, and the reverse to a few we wot of,
so bigotetl and prejudiced as not to
see its great benefits.
"Comparisons are odious." 'tis Said.
yetnotruth.no proposition, or idea
can be so well conveyed a bv the ve
hicle of comparison ; all things are
good, better or hesT, onlv by compari
son. Thh Is too aptly illustrated ev
ery day lobe doubted. Comparative
merit is the standard of nil rewards,
be they as to individuals or communities.-
Thus we speak of the great
and unprecedented growth nnd de
velopment of Chicago as compared to
St. Louis nnd other cities; as to Its
enterprise in overcoming obstacles,
etc.; here is comparison. The new
city competes with nnd outstrips the
old. And this fact of young and en
terprising communities passing their
older, ami ought-to-be more enterpris
ing, competitors in tho race for
wealth and population, is illustrated
in thousands of instances, to the odi
um of the latter.
Rquarelv, then. Is our city, by pres
ent apathy, willing to abide the odi
um that a tow years hence will attach
to her position comparatively; is its
spine already so curved with age, its
nose so bestraddled witli the sppeks
of old fogyism, its limlis so shaky
with paralysis, as to concede, without
inward contempt, tho raco ere it is
begun? We have repeatedlv called
attention to facts of a manufacturing
kind established in numerous neigh
boring cities; fostered and aided by
those cities until able to go alone ;
and have also called attention to sev
eral home institutions, which less aid
would develop to first-class munufuc
tories than it would cost to coax and
foster others from a distance.
True we have some natural advan
tages, which may make us in spile of
ourselves; yet in this age of team
ami lightning these count little as
against the energy and pluck thai
builds cities in the most improbable
places, and makes the natural desert
to blo-som n" the roe.
Oh! that our citizens could but see
our city as others see it. beautiful,
healthful, well bleated, yet droning
upon hope, while all about is activity
to outstrip in the race for population
and wealth. The picture is not over
drawn ; for history, so far back that
the memory of man runneth not toj
the contrary, establishes life fact that
ei tie- depend more upon the energy
of its citizens for success than upon
natural advantage; and that where
both are combined most happy and
prosperous is the result. We have
the last, and will close our apnea! for
an active demopstnitinti ' "of the first
by the truism that "there is danger
in delay."
Afterthought has suggested (heap
pal to our citizens to do something
tangible. Let our business men meet
and fomi a company ami subscribe
stock to furl Tier home tnanuracture;
on the strength of such a move we
feel assured the precinct will double
its capital by voting aid.
We make I hi propo-ition because
we know of persons already in our
city, ftruggling agatn-t fearful odds
to -'nbl sh them-clves as m-iuufactu-rers
of articles of ever3'-day-need, who
could and would branch out if they
had the means, and for the- use of
which they could amply secure the
company in manufactured stock. We
need but particularize one establish

The Convention was largely attend-fj
ed by delegates from IheHtates of Ne
braska, Kansas, California, Nevada,
and the Territories of Colorado, Utah.
Wyoming, Dacotah, New Mexico,
-Montana and Idaho, and h vast
amount of valuable information was
imparted and derived upon the sub
ject of irrigating that portion of the
National domain unsurpasahly rich
in all save water. Ftom the address
es, essays, and discussions before us.
we see that many interesting -factsl
were presented relative to the .fertil
izing properties of water when appli
ed to the soil, and the feasible a ud fa
vorable surroundings tending to the
irrigation of that portion of our own
State, and those f other States and
Territories named and only known ns
arid plains. Practical experiments
have shown the soil and other sur
roundings of the arid portions of our
country to be even superior when aid
ed by irrigation r to many of our pres
ent famous agricultural regions. Dal
ly developments only confirm the
opiuiou of those who have given
thought and attention to the subject,
that the "Great Americuu Desert"'is4
fast approaching the&time when it
shall all "bloom and -blossom us the
rose.' 'dgt"'-A"
Gov. Furnas, in keeping wifh his
life-long devotion to the agricultural
interests of the Great West, has done
himself honor, and the State he rep
resents an incalculable benefit, by bis
attendance and participation in this
all important Convention, of which
we will have more to say hereafter.

My Dear Friends :
It is a fact, though a fact ban! to be

Why ? Is Bible instruction less
valuable or lees needed in winterthuu

or is labor for their conversion less a
duty ? Do the world, the flesh, and
the devil, cease to alluie and destroy?
Do sickness und dtath cease their
