Our friends from various parts of
the country ak us frequently if we
have any news of our railroad pros
pects. The following js published by
the Lincoln Loader, na what Dr. Con
verse said to a reporter at si recent in
terview with him. To a question as
to what about the Trunk road, the
Dr. said :
"Well sir, we are only awaiting the
action of the courts and the people.
There are now 51 miles of road to
build toconnect us with St. Joseph,
and so soon as the courts in Lancas
ter and Seward counties decide that
the railroad company shall have the
bonds voted thorn, the road will be
viirorouslv pushed right ahead, and
that gap closed at a very early day.
Both tills county and Snward have
voted their bonds to the amount of
$100,000, for which we havo done
everything we promised to do ; yet
Seward county has withheld her bonds
and as a consequence suits and in
junctlonsare now pending. Of course
this makes it difficult for us to realize
on our bonds. Besides, if by any hook
or crook in the law Seward county cati
creep out from her responsibility on
these bouds and not be obliged to pay
them, Nebraska city. Nemaha coun
ty, and Brownville, can with "the
same justice, reTune to pu on theirs.
T feel Hatiified that the capitalists of
the road don't feel like investing, and
wont Invest anymore in this Trunk
Road, if the people along the lino are
unheld by the courts to bait us on to
bring a railroad to their vory doors,
and then put their pocket books back
lu their troupers, with none the less
treasure in them. That kind of will-o-the-wisp
encouragement will not
build the Trunk Road, and before
moving further in the'matter we pro
pose to await the Issue of the various
suits now In court."
The above Is as direct news aB we
have. We frequently see gentlemen
from Lincoln, the headquarters of Dr.
Converse, and they all say that the
reasons as given above ia why work is
not going on on the Trunk road. No
oue can reasonably blame Dr. Con
verge or the company he represents
for the position he takes In the prem
ises. We dislike bad faith In any tran
saction. Whou counties or corpora
tions agree to give bonds under cer
tain conditions, they should be de
livered without hesitation if the con
ditions are complied with ; and, if
Dr. Converse agrees to build a railroad
for a certain amount of bonds against
a certain time, it should be required of
him to conform just as strictly with
his part of the stipulations.
We learn from the Nebraska City
Xeivs that the contract for the grading
of the Trqnk road from Nebraska City
to Brownville was let to Hicklin, Pat
terson & Co.. of Nebraska City some
weeks ago, subject to the uncertain re
sults of the above mentioned injunc
tion suits.
"It is slightly curious, as well as
suggestive, that Administration jour
nals manifest no sort of interest in
the revelations now being made con
cerning the remarkable internal man
agement of the District of Columbia.
When Tweed and Tammany were on
trial these journals overflowed with
virtuous elonuence in the Shane of
editorials denouncing the Democracy
and all its belongings, and holding up
the conductof New York City officials
as a specimen of what might be ex
pected in the nation should Demo
cratic principles prevail. St. Louis
Republican.
Slightly curious, or otherwise, It
may be to Democratic journals, but
the truth is that in each of the cases
named It has been the Republican
party that has called the th'ieves and
swindlers to account for their mis
deeds, that has Investigated their
transactions and decreed their punish
ments. The Republican party among
its many virtues can boast of one re
markable virtue that no other party
can boast of, and that is, it purges it
self of rascalsand corruptionisls when
ever any misdemeanors are observed,
and never tries to cover up rascalities
norEcreen transgressors. All the Dem
ocratic leaders and politicians in New
York city long knew of Tweed's
frauds and thieving, but said not a
word only to defend him and aid him
and share with him the plunder he
filched from the people, and his sins
never would have come to the light
but fov the N. Y. Times and other Re
publican journals which made it so
hot for the robbers that secrecy was
no longer possible. And after Tweed
had been exposed and while he stood
up to his chin in his own corruption,
the Democratic party, appreciating
his qualities, elected him to the Senate,
which position he resigned to go to
penitentiary. The Republican party
sends criminals to jail while Democ
racy elects theirs to office ; that isjust
the difference so far as purity of party
is concerned.
On theoutBidoof this papor we-publish
the story of the attempt of detec
tives to arrest tho Younger brothers,
and in connection therewith give a
telegram that Capt. Allen had died of
wounds received in the sanguinary
battle; butfrom the following special
telegram of the 2Gih to the Inter-Ocean
it appears that the gallant officer was
still alive at that date with a fair pros
pect of recovery :
Applkton City, Mo., Maroh 2G.
Detective Allen has been reported
worse, but a gentleman who helped
to dress his wounds to-day has just
arrived here, and saj's he had a sink
ing spell on Tuesday night, but Is now
doing well. It is known hero now
that his name is not Allen, but Lull,
formerly of the police force of Chicago.
Another gentleman, now here, who
was at Lee's Summit yesterday, in
Jackson Couuty, says thataman who
knows the. Younger boys told him
that he saw them near- that place on
Tuesday, in a wagou goung north.
Then two of them were sitting up, and
one of them lying down, which, if
true, adds further proof that James
Younger was wounded. Allen Lull
now says he is sure he bhot at both
men.
The Inter Ocean cava :
With five exception, every Demo
crat in tho House voted against Mr.
McCrary's bill to regulate commerce
by railways. This Is not at all surpris
ing to us, but It is a fact which the
demagogues who have been trying to
drive the Farmers' movement into
the Democratic party through the
channel of Liberalism, or -by means
of the new party dodge, would do well
to explain.

The farmers and producing classes
of the West and South, have for moro
than two years past, been agitating
the question of cheap railroad, river
and canal transportation. The high
rates of transportations and cxporia
tions hitherto charged by the great
carrying lines of the country, have
been such as to reuder unremunera-
tive agricultural and producing labors
of the South and West. Farmers
found that after having paid the high
freight tariffs' charged by railroads for
carrying their grain and produce to
the market, that llje margin left for
them was barely sufficient to pay the
cost of their production. In order to
correct this evil, produce uniformity
of freight charges, and reduce to a fair
and equitable scale, these onerous
charges' of transportation, the farmers
of the country banded themselves to
gether in an organization known as
the Patrons of Husbandry, and by
petitions to Congress, have asked that
the sovereign power of the nation be
exorcised for the purposo of correcting
the evils now incident to the carrying
trade of the nation, and for its better
and more uniform regulation. On
Thursday of last week a bill for this
purposo parsed the House of Repre
sentatives by a vole of 121 yeas to 116
nays. "The bill enacts that all rail
road Hues carrying freight and pass
engers between different States,
whether owned by one or various cor
porations, shall be regarded as em
ployed in commerce among the sever
al States and shall be liable for any
violation of this act. They are for
bidden to charge more than a fair and
reasonable rate for the transportation
of freight or passengers, which rates
to be ascertained and fixed by a board
of railroad commissioners, to be ap
pointed by the President, with tho
advice and consent of the Senate.
They are to be disinterested persons,
andnotto haveany interests in sit cks,
bonds or property of. any railroad or
any transportation company. This
board of railroad commissioners i3 to
institute a thorough investigation and
inquiry into rates and toll and com
pensation charged for transporting
freights and passengers over each of
such lines of railroad, and as soon as
practicable, after such investigation
and Inquiry to prepare for the owners
and operators of each of such lines, a
separate schedule of reasonable maxi
mum rates of charges for transporta
tion of passengers and freight over
said lines of railroad. The schedule
is to he duly authenticated by the
board of commissioners, and be print
ed and kept posted up in each of the
offices and depots of such railroad
companies, corporations or persons."
For more than two years the Re
publican delegation in Congress has
been urging some measure of a like
character; and ills to the Republic
an members of the West that the
present bill owe3 its paspage in the
House. An analysis of the vote
shows that every Republican member
west of Ohio voted solid for the bill,
while every Democrat in the House,
with the exception of five, voted
jgainnt the passage of the bill. True
to their old and erroneous idea's upon
the doctrine of State rights, they op
pose any and all schemes that may
advance from a national point of view
tlie great farming and producing in
terests of the West. It would seem,
therefore, to us. a matter of wisdom,
and practical good sense, that farm
ers, grangers, and the laboring and
producing classes generally, of the
West, should unite their efforts with
the Republican party in brinuing to
final consummation this much need
ed, just and beneficent measure.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
The Washington c rrespondenttothe
(Democratic) Omaha Herald, says :
"State Senator Barton left for home
several days since having left the
impression here of a complete and ac
complished gentleman May he
.come back soon." Lowell Register.
To tho Register1!! question, '.'what
doeB it mean." we answer: Peake.
the Herald's Washington correspond
ent was sorry to see Barton leave
Washington, and he wants Barton to
"come back soon" so that they can
take another drink together. We as
sure Prof. Williams that Peake's
prayer is not of more important sig
nificance. Another thing, the Regis
ter's readers will thank It for the
parenthetlo allusion to the politics of
the Omaha Herald. No one would
eversuspicioned that such a nice, vir
tuous, sweet-scented sheet as the
Herald was Democratic, if thoy
hadn't found it out in some way.
"Residents of tho Western part of
the State will have no fault to find
with Senator Hitchcock an-'d. Governor
Furnas for q'uietly'applying for arms,
as they did." Beatrice Erprcss.
Yes. and the Express will, before it
is much older, realize that it has been
doing injustlco towards Governor
Furnas in regard to the swamp land
matter. What the Advertiser, has
f
had to eay in definition, explanation
and defense of the Governor's actions
about swamp lands, was by his direct
authority and knowledge, while the
Express speaks, (or has spoken) from
Incen tires received from his enemy
the Omaha Herald, and Pcakc, its
Washington correspondent. Time
will tell whether the Governor has
lied or been lied about, by various
newspapers and their correspondents.
When the Express becomes so "cor
nered" that It will be compelled to
see the facts, It will be generous
enough to publish them ; for even if
It has a candidate for U. S. Senator,
just imported across the Platte, it
knows it can notmake much for him
by withholding justice from the Gov
ernor. A party of colonists, numbering 148
perrsons, arrived in Omaha from

HIGH SCHOOL EXAMINATION.
Mrs. Ebrlgnt'a Department.
On Thursday afternoon of last week,
took place the examination of Mrs.
Ebright's department of the Brown
ville High School. 'We were not pres
ent at the commencement of the ex
ercises, but fortunately arrived n ti,De
to"4 Sear "her "baby ohiBS," (as she
navely' calls it.) review a portion of
their reading lemons, and a review of
their card and memorized arithmetic.
So far as their advancement in the
branches above indicated are concern
ed, we are fain to acknowledge them
mos wonderful babies.
The examination of grado A opened
with arithmetic and tho expression of
numbers and figureB in words. Each
echolar was able, without a moment's
hesitation'to answer any question pro
pounded by their teacher. As far as
the class had gone, each pupil had
committed to memory and fixed in
delibly on the mind every portion qf
the studies that had occupied the
term. A confidential talk with the
class on matters of natural philosophy,
including light, air, and electricity
was of the most interesting character.
Some of the fundamental principles
of light and air were fully explained
and thoroughly understood by this
class. We were delighted with the
exercises of hor A and B reading
classes, the pronunciation, the proper
accent and the rise and fall of the
voice, in all its modulations and flex
ability had been trained as to be al
most perfect, while their oral recita
tions exhibited a skill and beauty in
elocution, that would have done credit
to persons of older years nnd more ex
tended training. Mrs. Ebright pos
sesses in an eminent degree the facul
ty of imparting facts and information
to her scholars, and inspiring in them
confidence in their ability to com
prehend and communicate what they
learn. Her system is full of encour
agement, thorough to the last degree,
and ruled by order as exact as Euclid.
Aniongyoungand diffident pupils she
is. certainly the wizest and greatest
captain we have ever met in a school
room and if this eminent lady has
an equal in the ordering and training
of the young mind, it has not been
our good fortune heretofore to meet
such an educator.

Peru, Neb.
The Grange Advocate of Atchison
county, Mo., is opposed to having a
free school in Rockport. That paper
certainly does not correctly represent
tliesentiment of the granger on the
free school S3'stem. The grangers of
Nebraska, and the Republican party
everywhere, favor free schools and the
educating of the poor as well as the
rich, and there is no doubt that such
doctrineB are held by the Republican
grangers of Atchison county. Thoy
should haul their Advocate over the
male and give It some Idea of the pro
gress of American institutions.
Thora is quite, a large number of
colored people in St. Joseph Mo ,
nearly all Republicans, and they ask
the party to give one of their number
a respeotable office at the approaching
municipal elction. They held a meet
ing a few evenings ago and selected
James Trent as a candidate for City
Register, and appointed a committpe
to confer with the chairman of Repub
lican central committee.
Tho Republicans of Nebraska City
met in mass convention on the 21st

TB31PERAWCE NOTES.
The crusade has just broke out in
Atchison Kansas.
At Bucyrus, Ohio, there is a strong
opposition to the movement and
trouble is anticipated.
At different points in northern
Ohio the movement is meeting with
considerable success.
A boys temperance association has
been formed at Detroit calld 'The De
troit Juvenil's band of Hope.'
At Dayton, Ohio, tho crusaders are
said to be encouraged by dosing four
saloons, after prayingonly four weeks.
There are but 302 more left in that city
for them to besiege.
The crusaders ofTecumseh have
been on the war-path for about ten
days, but with no visible effect on sa
loons. The ladies say they do not in
tend to become easily weary.
At one time, in Jefferson ville, Ind.,
pepper was sprinkled on the pave
ment in front of a saloon ; the ladies
commenced to pray on the pavement,
aud before they got through all went
to sneezing. It was an awful time.
Tho Board of Aldermen, Cincinnati,
unanimously passed a resolution re
questing the Mayor to enforce thp
city ordinance pr venting the annoy
ance of saloon keepers by women
praying. The Mayor will probably
issue a proclamation.
A man by the name of Mosher wa3
arrested in Lincoln the other day for
assaulting one of the lady crusaders
by violently putting his hands upon
her and striking her, while she was
on a visit to a saloon, with other la
dies. He was tried and bound over to
the district court in the sum of $200.
At Anapolis, Md,, a large number
of ladies and gentlemen visited the
legislature to induce legislative action
adverse to the liquor traffic. When
the Invadqra went into the House the
legislators generally dispersed with
an unfavorable impression towards
such movements of the temperance
advocates.
A war has broken out among the
saloon keepers at Ackley Iowa. One
of them was arrested for selling liq
uor without authority, and thinking
the others did not pide with him ns
they should he filed complaints
against all the others. The result is
that saloon business there is done for
the presen.t
An exchange sums up the results
of the womaus crusade in Ohio, up to
the first of March as follows: Forty
four towna and cities in tho States re
port 214 saloons closed, 74 druggists
pledged not to sell liquor, 489 saloons
still open, and 13 druggists refusing
to sign. Probably 30,000 people have
signed the pledge.
At Fort Scott, while the ladies were
holding services in front of a saloon,
a German named Schuster, mounted
a dry goods box and harangued the
crowd, insulting the ladies and mak
ing use of much profane and obscene
language. He was arrested by the
police for disturbing the peace. A
card signed by a large number of lead
ing Germans of that city has been
published in the Jfonitor, denouncing
8 "coster's oonduot and d)ruoatiiigr
the unpleasant occurrence.
The question of sentencing habit
ual drunkards to Imprisonment for
long terms is now being agitated in
Montreal, in view of the fact that the
jail records there show that the same
persona ore imprisoned over and over
again for short torms. This system
has been tried in Rhode Itdand,
where a person having been
drunk three separate times within
six weeks may be sent to the State
farm for six month, and for the sec
ond offense may be sent for one year.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer re
marks: "A well regulated license
system would do more in one week
to squeloh 800 out of the 1,300 saloons
of Cleveland than the daily visitation
of 10.000 women to them with prayer
and song. The strong arm of the law
has terrors for those who mock and
scoffat the prayers of women. Aud
to the license system the State of Ohio
must eventually come. The traffic
in the sale of liquors in our many
growing cities cannot be controlled
otherwise."
MEMORIAL

can convetious, which assembled to

The Nemaha Granger has been cru
elly treated by the farmers. Dr. Hol
laday, the owner of the papei, was
suspected of a design to carry it over
to Democrdcy again, when the Gran
gers met and formally withdrew their
patronage from it.
Sensible to the last. Politics and
agriculture don't seem to mix well,
and the holy ambition of forming a
coalition between the Democrats and
the Grangers, in order to use up the
Republican party, seems to be the
least appreciated of any plan. At
least the Grangers of Nemaha county
think so. Beatrice Express.
The St. Joseph Herald pay the fol
lowing compliment to the State Nor
mal School: "With regard to this
popular institution, we are pleased to
learn that during tho year over three
hundred pupils have deen enrolled in
all departments : the course of study
has been extend, the organization
and gradation carried to a higher
point; the facility has been enlarged;
tuition has been removed making the
