THE "TCB" LAW..
How it Hay Work Mischief.
(Omaha Herald )
Mr. Jacob Wiggins, senior member
of the tirm of W 'ggius & Sous, was in
the city yesterday, on atrip up froui
the Republican valley, in which he is
the chief grain shipper. Ihe tirm have
elevators at Red Cloud, Rloomiugluu
and Rius Spring, all near the Kansas
line, and are ia a position to see how
the "Tub" law regulating railway
rates is regarded. A Herald reporter
who met Mr. Wiggins, learned that the
news of the passage of the bill had
reached the valley shortly before he
left, and that the people were cuusidei
ably exercised over it, while the ship
pers, though not believing it would
injure themselves, could see no good
in it for the producers. The reporter
asked him.
"How has shipping been before this
'regulation' was made'r"
Heretofore we have alwavs been ena
bled to get grain fiom at least half
way to competing points on the Cen
tral Branch railway in Kansas. These
Kansas competing points are fifty
miles away from us, except Burr Oak,
which is thirty miles south."
"How will it work under this law?"
My opinion is, that under the law
the Kansas railroads, (which are Rut
beund by it) will be ab.e to give rates
that will draw grain to them from
more than half ot the distance, if not
from Nebraska itself."
"What will be the effect on Nebras
ka farmers, then?"
"In my opinion wheat will be worth
at least, from live to ten cents per
bushel less than it would have been
without this law."
"Who loses this?"
"The loss falls on the producers. Tin
railroads in this state will not get so
much to haul, but will get a larger
pay for what they do haul. It will not
affect the shippers materially; the
shippers will not be the losers. This
takes away from the farmer and gives
to the railway."
"Will it then affect the raising of
wheat'f"
"Yes, I think it will have a material
effect. The railroad company haye al
ready furnished and delivered 3.000
bushels to homesteaders in the repub
lican valley, who were unable to make
a negotiable note, and the company
are now offering transportation free
on seed grain. Many business men
were obligating tlu mselves to supply
the needs of the farmers, and this will
have an effect to dampen their ardor,
and consequently much less jeed will
be sown."
And this is the effect that the law is
having already.

been his second term there and he has
given, we may say, universal satisfac

It is pitiful to witness the condition
of the sun. The great tire-ball is in
urtenate commotion. His surface is
seamed and scarred in every direction,
with black spots that indicate the dis
turbing elements at work in his chao
tic mass. Occasionally, for a day or
two, the blemishes disappear, and the
glorious king of day shows a face like
a shield of glowing gold, liu. the as
pect quickly changes; spots come rush
ing in all directions and assuming ail
forms. Then appear singly and in
pairs, and again in groups and rows.
Immense groups break up iuto small
ones, and small -ones unite to form
great chasms, into which half a dozen
worlds might be droppe and there
would still be room for more. Some
times the spots are visible to the naked
eye, and at that time a good opera
giass or spy glass will make them easi
ly perceptible. Hundreds of observers
all over the world watch the sun's face
every Clear day. and keep a record of
the number of spots. Sci. Amr.

Having noticed Mr. Tefft's and Mr

from the Enterprise in regard to our

correspondent but lor "Old Cass" give
it a little wider circulation:
Mr. J.:mes Hall as a member of the
committee on ways and means gained
a tine reputation, going in as he did
a plain unpretending farmer, and
coming away recognized as the ablest
aiithwrily upon finance in the House,
is a record of which any man may
weil teel proud. Mr. lia.lt is a man
ot more than average ability- and
shrewdness. The best of it is that
his ubility-is positive. There is none
of the trimuu r dodger time server or
trickster in his maice up. He is
known now in Lincoln and through
out the slate as 'Old Ecot.omy" or
Hie "watch dog of the" stale tii asury"
and :o man leaves Lincoln for whom
u higher regaid is enter. ained for his
sterling honesty than does James
Hali ot Cas.-.
It is to be hoped that .Mr. Hall wiU
be peimit'ed to represent Cass county
in the legislature just as long us he
lives, because l lie taxpayers cannot
do better. ,
Dr. Root has done his duty faith
fully, was with l ellt one of the orig
inal 14 Van Wck men. As a mem
ber of the committee on privileges
aud elections, made it hard and suc
cessful tight for .Mr. Daily. Repub
lican as against Cairigan, democrat
iti the con.esled case from Cheyenne,
county. Dr. Root iu this case made
the ablest speech delivered at any
time during , the sessieu. The Dr.
made also an able aud comprehensive
address upon the local taxation of
-railroads, but the railroad cappers
were to siring for Root aud the other
friends of the only railroad hill pre
sented too the House calculated to ac
complish any real .food
Dr. Root p iu sued a straight-forward
and manly couise, during the ses
sion, gaining the confidence and
respect of all who came in contact
with him. lie never hesitated in sup
port of any measure that he believed
was for the good of the peopie. His
record is a handsome rebnke to those
who for selfish reasons alone sought
to secure his defeat at the last election.

J. H. Me Kinnoti, float rep.. - whom

but he was and is a quiet, clear-headed,
and intelligent member of the
House, always at his post, serking to
promote -he best inteiests of his
county and district. It was to Mr.
McKiunun more than any o-her man
that Ciiss county was enabled by con
solidating with Saunders to secure the
leading positions in the present legis
lature. This alliance if maintained
in the future will enable these coun
ties to dictate terms, Joe. lias the
happy faculty of gaining friends and
keeping them. There is no treachery
in his nature, he has the feelings and
sympathies of a gentleman. He is
more disposed to build up than tear
down. He is open, manly, frank, aud
his sympathies are with the people;
and the man who says that J. H. Mc
Kiunon is not with the people, wheth
er it be against monopolies or politi
cal frauds who seek to mislead the
people, is a villifier and unworthy of
puVdic credence. M,r. McKinnon is a
strong tnau in the otate, aud it is to be
hoped that the day is not far distant
when so worthy a man can and will
be promoted.
The recent warm weather here and

If Tobacco is not Poisonous, Why This!
W. H. Rideing. an able writer, in a
paper on different employments of
Working women, alarms that, "The
women who suffer most from the
character of their occupation are the
cigar makers, who, mingling with men,
boys and chi'dren, toil many hours a
day for five or six dollars a week, liv
ing in an atmosphere surcharged with
fumes that would make the oldest
smoker sick. Part of the work is done
iu factories, but most of it is done iu
the dwellings of the operatives, and in
neither is any attention paid to ven
tilatiou or cleanliness.
Growing girls suffsr in many ways,
and are as much under the influence
of tobacco as a constant smoker. Their
faces are pale, and their eves are dull,
a stupor overcomes them, their nerves
are unsettled, and their lungs are dis
eased iu uearly every case."
I Guess I'm for Temperance.
I-yes, on the whole, I guess
I'm
for Temperance.'
"But, look here," wo said, holding
the youth by ihe button-hole, "it is
something there onght to be no guess
work about."
"But -truly ! I have not thought
enough about the thing to know."
"Did you ever see any good iu intem
perance ?"
"I don't know as I ever did."
"Did you ever see anything bad grow
out of temperance?"
"No, sir."
"Do you ever drink !"
"I do not."
"Do you feel that you would like to
form the habit?"
"Goodness, no."
"Would you like to see that brother
of yours drinking?"
"Of course not!"
"Are you perfectly willing to put
your name on my pledge book V"
"YV hy yes, if it will do tiny good ; but
I dout see what difference it will
make."
"Difference I ail in the world. Will
you be likely to say you 'gU'iSs' you
ire for temperance when yon have
just signed the pledge?"
The youth wrote his name, and
moved briskly down the road; and,
children, if yoit'see any more of those
sort of fellows who "guess" they are
for temperance, get their names down
on a temperance pledge as soon as you
cafi, so they May know for dead sure,
where they stand.
Keep Free of tha Shackles.
Many people think that the ndge,
"Prevention is better than cure," ap
plies to everything except intemper
ance, Imt that, with drink, our philos
ophy is to wait until we discover we
are fond of it, and then, and not ti!l
then, to relinquish it. Foster a bad
habit till we become its slaves, and
then break the shackles. Is it not bet
ter never to let the shackles get on ?
Stand Ready to Help.
"Father," said a son. "will you sign,
:ts a help to me?" '.And I signed," says
the father, "and thus through my boy
was I saved, for, even at that time I
was going the downward road." Keep
y cur eyes open, boys, and girls, too,
for it may be as great a power for
good is even now resting with you, as
war wtih that lad. Unless we look
sharp, we know not at what moment
we mav let a chance for helping anoth
er and that other, mayhap, our own
father slip by unused.

old homestead in Montgomery county
there is a Catharine pear that must bo
sixty-five to seventy years old, but does
not seem much more than half grown.
Aud here upon our present premises
there are two Catiline, two Windsor and
one Catharine tree, which arc estimated
to be 150 years old. Fifty years ago
they seemed to be nearly a large as
now; and we were told by a previous
ownerjyf the ground an old man when
we purchased it that his grandfather,
who cuma from Germany, plauted the
"trees, with others of tiie same name
(which we removed) when he was by
no means an old man. Hence, by get
ting at the ages of the mnn's ancestors,
we pretty closely approximate the age
of the trees. One of the Catillacs died
last summer, and the other will not sur
vive it more than a year or two. though
it still bears very well. The Windsors
also give signs of decay; but the Cathe

- Bally Eay, of Lialvllle.
Mrs. Sarah Ray arrived in Buffalo the
other day from Loadvi'.Ie, on her way
to New York, whither she has gone for
the purpose of locating her (laughter
Cora, in a school, aud arranging for
the future care of a liule Mexican gkl
whom s:e tial iu charge. Mrs. Ray
has a history, which, if pu!li-hcd, would
read like a romance. She has dug in
mines, fought in wars with Indians side
by side wit.i her husband, scoured the
plains on horseback as a scout, and be
came an exp.-rt in the business; helped
found the city of Leadville, being the
tirst white woman wiio ever dared ven
ture there, mapped out roads, built
houses, took iu wa-hing from the Lead
ville miners, and is to-day in possession
of a f t tunc that pavs her au iucome of
$30,000 a year.
A reporter paid her a call as she sat
iu a central pabica car waiting for the
train, to start. He found her occupy
ing a seat facing her daughter Cora,
and around her was piled numerous
bundles of luggage. She expressed
herself as gln.d to grant an .interview,
and pleasantly said: "Sit down there
by Corn and I will talk with you." Cora
is a handsome girl of about 17 summers,
and as she assented to tho proposition
the reporter did not deliberate, but
readily took a seat by her side.
Mrs. Ray commenced by saying, with
a hearty laugh: "Now I'm not going
to tell yon how old I am, for 1 may want
to get married again when I get to
New York."
Then sho went on to say that she
came from the north of Ireland to New
York city when she was 15, and mar
ried a book-keeper named Joseph Ord
way. Her husband , died a year later,
and she went to Leavenworth, Kan.,
from thence to Denver, and finally in
1870, toLcadville. In Denver she mar
ried a miner named Frank Ray, but he
died soon after.
She told how iu Leadvillo fche braveu
the dangers and storms of winter be
fore there were buildiugs there to in
habit ; how Cora had to be kept wrap
ped up in heavy blankets to keep her
from, freezing, while she pursued her
task of building a hut; how, when the
place became settled she saw the land
she had taken up turn into a fortune,
etc. She owns building in Leadville
that rent for $-2,000 a mouth.
Her career lias been a peculiarly
evontful and exciting one, and one that
would bear a more extended notice than
can well be given in a single issue of
daily paper. She grew eloquent as
6he related her adventures, and her
yes sparkled as she. said:
"I saw my old man once sit on a
bors-j and shoot seven Indians without
stopping. And, I've done something
like it myself. Yung man." she add-
ed, with a quiet twiuklo ia her eye,
"I've shot more Indians than you've
got lingers and loes. You wouldn't
think, to look at n:e, would you. that
Ie gone out on the mountain side, up
to mv waist in snow, and staked out
tho streets of Leads die? But its gospel
truth."
She said she didn't know how long
he would stay in New York. Her
property in Leadville was attended to
by agents, and she felt perfectly con
tent to stay away jut :t' b'lig she
felt disposed.
She is now fifty years old,' weighs
about one hundred and forty pounds,
and is nigged and chipper. As she
bade the repoit.-rg-od day she remark
ed that she w.-.s happy, and was going
to try sud m:;kc others o during her
remaining ears.
Bsbks.
Ti-.e vrrker .vho called herself riiil
da" in the columns of I,i Frn.tcc. has
been d scribing the variations f the
baby-ty pe in the chief nations of Eu
rope. "Tiie lirst in her scrips is natural
ly 'Le Bebe Pari-iieu.'" who. whether
male or female, is coquettish, graceful,
diplomatic and generous from the very
cradle. Though it loves bon-bons, it
will readily sacrifice its son to the poor."
Its nose is always directed upward,
sniffing the air. As its nurse isr usually
a Burgon-1 ian, it receives along with its
milk a few drops of the generous "wina
of the country. If a hoy, it shows an
early instinct for kissing pretty little
girls. The. English "baby" is a very
different creature. It has" "muscles of
steel," though its always shut up in a
nursery with a gnu r rruante. "It
springs out of its bed every morning;
into its col 1:i'!i." As the Burgundy
dmnk by the mirse conditions the Pax-
isian baby, similarly the English baby
"reproduce- in ius countenance tho
beetstukos ca'cn by- my lord and my
lady." Its voiee "resembles the soft
piping of an exotic l.ird," and its eyes
are "great and transmarine," whatever
the latter quality may mean. It gives
few kisses, and it gets as few. It wears
earring of gold, but its clothes are so
constructed as to allow it freedom of
movement and physical development.
The German "kind"' is heavy, slilT,
and stilled with clothes. Sometimes a
future Werther may be discerned in it.
It quickly wearies of other children,
because it always wants to play at sol
diers, and it howls if it is not tno gen
al." The Russian infant is "the aristo
crat among tho babies." It looks as if
it were made of delicate porcelain; its
tone of voice freezes the bearer; it sel
dom plays, lecause it is too aristocratic
to be familiar with children whom it
does not know. It "sees its mother"
even, less frequently than tho English
baby does. Its favorite toy is a whip,
aud it screams because it is not allowed
to knout the servants. Tho Italian ba
by is a "little lire-devil, 'a Bacchus
who will never keep his shirt on his
body." When it shouts, the listener
might take it to ba declaiming verses
from Tasso.

They had just the loveliest sleighing;
in Philadelphia, says au exchange., and
y oung Keepitup was out enjoying it all
one afternoon. When ho drove into
the stable, oh! but the man was mad.
He roared when he looked at the horse,
ami danced around, and, as Undo
Remus says, " he cust, he did."
"Look "at that boss!" he wailed.
"Look at that boss! Ain't a dry hair on
him. an' he's nigh ready to drop. That's
a pretty lookin way to bring in a boss.
Nice man, von are to let a good horso
to!"
Younsr Keepitup was fairly astonished-
'"Man alive!" he yelled, picturing
his amazement iu his voice, "and what
did 3-ou expect when 1 hired himP
When a horse is costing me an even
65 an hour, he's got to keep moving,
you understand. When I'm paying out
more than 8 cents every minute, I can't
afford to let no horsi "lean up against
an ice-box while he figures out t!ie oat
crop of the United States for 1880. I
did my level bent to keep my whip arm
warmT aud then I couldn't get more
than $4.25 au hour out of him. I didn't
hire tho horse to rest him. Now,
if you had only charged 15 cents
an hour. 1 would have nad the horse fed
every thirty minutes, while I was out,
and I would rocked him to 6lecp in my
arms, wrapped him up in blankets, and
laid him in the sleigti an I hauled him
back to the tallo myself. That is
the difference, yousoe, Mr. Silkcracker.
Here's your money, and I want the

It is reported that Florida has closed a
contract for draining Lake Okeechobee,
under which name is included a .small
lake and very large swamp that between
them occupv great space to no possible
purpose. The ground to be t;uis re

Connecticut and Massachusetts com

produce all tho sugar the l.'uUed States
can use; but whatever its prospects
may be, the prominent fa -t is that the
state is to p.y for tho work, instead of
