County Correspondence.
Glespale, Xf.b., (
July .'Jlst, 1877. J
Va). Herald -Not having seen any
thing in your columns from this place
for some time, I drop a few lines toen
lighten you on Glendale matters. The
first and principal item for which Glen
dale is noted, is her school, of w hich
she may justly boast. Two years ago
the district was oyer two hundred dol
lars in debt, yet besides paying out
Syis.OO for teachers the district i3 now
out of debt and has live hundred dol
lars in the treasury. 01 scholar's are
ennumerated, yet it is a fact to be re
gretted that but little over half that
number regularly attend school.
The school last winter was ably con
ducted by J. G. Polk, Esq., undoubted
ly one of the most successful teachers
in the State; to him, not only as a teach
er, but as an active member of the board
is the Glendale school largely indebted
for its present prosperity. The sum
mer term (just closed) was taught by
Mr. W. C. Showaltcr, to the satisfaction
of all concerned. Mr. S. is peculiarly
fitted for tha position of teacher, and
it is to be hoped the district may be
able to secure his services for the win
ter term.
Politics are rather lively considering
the fact that this is only the beginning.
The "sham reformers" already begin to
look despondent.
The farmers are done harvesting.
Wheat about half a crop. Harley fair.
Corn good. Oats almost worthless.
Yours C. .S.
Nearly or quite two years ago Stieight
& Jones, livery men. then in partner
ship here, lost a horse by the hands of
1 m.Mi called Dr. Roberts. Neither man
nor horse were heard from until last
week, when Dick Stieight spotted him
at Omaha, and had him arrested and
brought down here. Roberts claims
he had to cross the Platte and sent the
horse home by another man. Dick wants
to see that other man or have Robert?
produce the horse, and wo guess he'll
have to do it or go to prison.
Justice may be slow but she's sure.

FROM WEEPING WATER AND
VICINITY,
July 31st, 187C.
Mil Eoitok. Since our last we have
visited the country west of Weeping
Water, and found, the farmers busily
engaged in harvesting their grain. The
majority of them will complete it this
week. Small grain in this part of the
countv is rather light. The average
yield of wheat will not be more than
ten bushels per acre. Farmers are
somewhat discouraged; but they ought
not to be when the beautiful fields of
dark, green corn promise to them such
a bountiful reward for their summers
toil. There are some of the finest
farms iu this section of the county that
we have ever beheld since our stay in
Nebraska. Fai niers who have been on
their land only a few years, have it or
namented with large cotton wood groves
while orchards are almost wholly want
ing, but we arc certain thej will have
them as soon as possible; because they
are a set of stirring men.
IX TOWX,
business is dull, merchants occupying
the long monotonous hours by loung
ing on goods boxes, and spinning a few
long yarns, all are hoping soon to see
business revive.
AH THE HEAT,
mercury ranging between SO and !0 in
the shade. Heavy showers of rain
quite frequent ; but after the showers
old Sol shines out as hot a.i ever.
Notwithstanding the heat and rain
we have stopping with us a gentleman
from California, who brings with him
good reports concerning the crops of
that State. Wheat there i threshed
and being shipped to Europe. Pr'n-e 70
cents per bnhel. The gentleman. Mr.
Uuson. says if a man has a farm in Ne
braska, or if he is only making a good
living here by working out by the
month, ho would advise him to remain
here. Either a very high opinion of
Nebraska or a very low one of Califor
nia. Hkfxo.

KEMOYAI-
We omitted last week to speak of i
Judge Sprague's removal to Ashland.
Mr. Sprague has been the law partner
of Hon. Sain Chapman for two years
and removes to his old home in Ash
land on account of owning property
there and other business relations. We
are sorry to lose the Judge. He is a
good citizen and lawyer, and Flatts
tnoutli can ill afford to lose such, but
we suppose he must look after his own
interests just as the Herald or any
one else does. Success to him any way
wherever he goes.

PRO RATA.
This subject has nad some little at
tention bestowed on it ; but its impor
tance and the justice of the case de
mand much more from every citizen of
Nebraska.
In tne "act of Congress" approved
July 1st, l$2, the 1-ith section places
the power of making connections with
the U. P. 11. R. main line, "At such pla
ces and upon such just and equitable
terms as the President of the U.S. may
prescribe."
Now it is a notorious fact that if a
farmer of Cass county ships a car load
of produce or stock to Cheyenne or any
other point on the U. P. R. R. west of
Fort Kearney, and sends that car load
over the H. & M. It. R. to Kearney, in
the hope of its going forward to its
destination, he will be charged as much
by the U. P. R. R. from Kearney to the
point his car is billed to as though he
had shipped it from Omaha, besides
having to pay the H. & M. R. R. for the
transportation over their road. In oth
er words any Railroad south of Platte
River that has a means of connecting
with the U. P. at Kearney is practical
ly shut out of the carrying trade west
by an outrageous discrimination in fa
vor of Omaha and the U. P. R. R. The
same rule holds good as to passengers,
and the unlucky fellow who gets off
the H. & M. train at Kearney and takes
the U. P. for the west will be charged
the same fare by the U. P. as he would
have to pay from Omaha thereby mak
ing the money paid for passage on the
H. & M. a dead loss to traveler and forc
ing passengers to buy their tickets and
take their passage at Omaha. How long
will the populous South Platte coun
try submit to this enormity? How
long will they permit the markets of
the west to be shut off from them by
! this great injustice. We are proud of
j Omaha and have no word of fault to
I find with any fair means used to in-
crease its growth, but in all candor
! shall that growth continue to be at the
j expense of the whole South Platte?
I Will the residents and voters of South
j Platte tamely submit to this injustice,
; or will they move in the matter and
i compel Congress to give them relief
! from this oppressive discrimination
against them.
Iet us go to the popular branch of
: Congress with our appeal for redress
! and let the men of South Platte stir
i this matter in every caucus and in ev
j cry Grange nutil justice is granted our
. rei-:i of CouuUj.

From Ocean to Ocean in 80
Hours !
WHAT IT TEACHES.
OUR CENTENNIAL YEAR.
The accomplishment of the extraor
dinary run from New York to San
Francisco in 80 hours and almost one
third of theenfrfl distance over the Ft.
Wayne tt Pennsylvania Railway, was
a most fitting fulfillment of the prom
ises made by the management of this
great line that in th One Hundredth
year of our existence as a Nation, a
railway for the completeness of its
structure, the perfection of its equip
ment, the most exact experiments for
speed, all modern improvements for
comforts and ingenious combinations
for safetv, on the face of the globe,
should be the Great Ft. Wayne & Penn
sylvania Read. How veil, and tiuly
that promise has been kept, may be
judged by the crowning triumph in the
great race against time of the Janet
v. Palmer special San Francisco Train,
which ran from New York to Chicago
in less than 21 hrs., distance 912 miles.
444 milt s between New York and Pitts
burg, was run by one lornmotire, with
out asinyle stop a feat entirely with
out precedent in the annals of railway
history, and teacher that nothing is im
possible on the Great Ft. Wayne ifc
Pennsylvania Railroad, and that it has
outstripped the progressive railway
rivals, not only of America, but the Old
World. Foreign newspaper correspon
dents, visiting our Centenial, overlook
the great Exposition and ics world of
wonders, and fill their homeward
bound letters with the advanced ideas
of the Pennsylvania &Ft. Wayne Rail
way system, and invariably and unhes
itatingly pronounce it to be the model
railway of the world, and America's
fitting representative of rational en
gineering, shrewd official observations,
and the early adoption of all ideas ad
vancing the interests of its patrons.
Pullman's New Palace Sleeping. Draw
ing Room and Hotel Cars, are run upon
all trains, and the line being miles the
shortest from Chicago to New York,
Philadelphia, Haltimore, and Washing
ton, the advantage of low fares are in
its favor. It mast borne in mind that
the Ft. Wayne & Pennsylvania trains
run direct to all the abovo cities, and
into the Centenial grounds, low fare
tickets may be purchased at the Gener
al Office 33 Clark St- Chicago, or at the
Depot, and information, by mail furnished.

ATTENTION, TEACH ERS.
The Teachers' Institute for this dis
trict will be held at West Point, to

son. Principal of the State Normal
School, Prof. Wightman, of Platts
mouth, I-ro f. Palmer, Editor Neb.
Teacher, Prof. Nicholson, of Peru, and
other abb teachers.
Practical teaching for the common
schools is the main work; but regular
chiss work will be carried on, under
competent instructors, not only in the
common branches in higher English,
but with special reference to the wants

this Institute offers the best opportuni
ties at the least expense. The teachers
