While Sioux City and Yankton are building Jupj a profitable com merce ou the business of Northern Nebraska and Southern Dakota, a region naturally tributary to Oma ha, the merchants, manufacturers and capitalists of Omaha exhibit the most stolid indifference to the ex tension of railway communication to the north and northwest. This very short-signtea policy nas es tranged the people of Northern Ne braska from Omaha. They very justly charge the slow development of their section as compared with Southwestern aud Central Nebras ka to the indifference of Omaha. Omaha Bee.

An exciting debate took place iu Congress last week, reminding one of the days of 1SG1, when the Dem ocratic majority said that the doc triue of secession must be accepted, or we will shoot down the govern ment. Now the representatives of the same party demand that the ceuulry must accept democratic dic tations or "we will starve out the government." Gen. Garfield made a powerful specch.definiug the position of Re publicans, aud iu the depth of his convictiou said " We have (i. e. the majority) resolved to-day to enter upon a revolution against the con stitution of the United States. Free consent is our theory of law. That is the granite foundation-stone of our whole political structure. Yet in the last congress the democratic leaders announced the policy of coercion, which is inaugurated here to-day. Your methods arc revolu tionary to the core. They arc con trary to the principles of American institutions." Thedebate was participated iu by several gentlemen, among whom was Mr. Muldrew, Mr. Chalmers, Mr. Price, Mr. Hurd and Mr. Frye. It was left for Chalmers and Frye to stir the blood of patriots and the lovers of a free constitutional gov ernmcnt,the reading of which brought vividly to our recollection the exciting" and stirring times 'of 1SCL, but we hopc"the statesmen of tho prcscnt'Iiourwill have wisdom and justice enough in their compo sition to know thatsit will not be in the interest of the people to force obnoxious legislation, and that starving the government into such measures will work no better than when practiced at Andersonvillc. Communicated.' Shall the Judge be Named by Attorney. Editor Journal: As you have always expressed a willingness to publish matter of general interest, the writer asks the privilege of using your space to make a few comments on'the selec tion of judicial officers. Much 1ms beeu said and written for and against an elective judiciary. Rufus Choate, and many other emi nent men have argued that the cuds of justice would be best subserved by appointing judges, aud remove them from the contaminating in fluences of party politics. For my part I believe the people at the ballot box should select the judges who decide their controver sies. But selecting men to such high positions through the machina tions of party politicians is quite another thing. Some of the older States have instituted a movement in the right direction by permitting the bar to make such selections to place before electors for their suf frages, and the experiment has worked well. In choosing a judge or other judicial officer, the object . 4 1 1 1 is iu get a man quiiiineci m legal ability and integrity for the place and who are more capable of judg ing as to the legal attainments of a person proposed than lawyers? They represent the properties, liber ties and lives of our fellow men hi our Courts orjustice and have a di rect interest iu not only having an able judge decide their clients' causes according to law, and one whose integrity is beyond question. A judge is supposed to be placed in his office for the benefit of tho peo ple, and when he is the creature of a few politicians he, like other offi cers, must feel that he is under ob ligations to those who brought him out, and may consider that he has enemies to punish who opposed him or labored for some other man in caucus. The above is only a very trifle to what might be said against the poli cy of making tho selection of our judiciary a political affair. If any of your renders can'show why it is better to choose such officers in a party caucus, than to have the bar select them, I would like to hear from them. Genoa Items.

County Pro- IV ESctl cr be Right than le Sena tor Senator Kiinmel has endeavored to answer the inquiries concerning his vote ou the capitol appropriation bill. Wejiriutcd his document last wtekjso that our readers might know just what justification is attempted by one of those who voted contrary to the wishes of his constituents. With those representatives and senators whose constituents really favor the permanent location of the capital at Lincoln we have no par ticular quarrel on this question there is none, except the stringency of the times, that has compelled the utmost economy in private afiairs, and should teach the tax-levying, and tax-expending power that the people's will should be listened, to rather than the cry of the job-leech, who, iu these times reckons so much expenditure for actual labor aud material, so much for "'grease" in in the shape of money or official influence to "engineer" the appro priation through committees and legislatures and governors, so much for stcalg, and so much for houest profits, which is not thought of 'till the last, and is put iu only be cause it will swell the figures. The people have interests that their agents should heed. That is the one great need of every government men in ollice aud in power who will execute the people's will. It is too true that America has what may be called an office-seeking class, whose main motive is to make money, or seek position as a stepping stone to higher position. In their conduct of an office, whenever any matter comes up for decision, the question with them is, "Ilow much is there in it for me?" or "How will my ac tion affect my chances for the ? the answer in either case being determined not by any considera tion of public iuterests, but wholly and eutirely by private, personal, and merely selfish purposes. The man who would rather be right than be legislator or governor, or congressman or senator or presi dent, is occasionally elected to office, but it is done through some iuscrutable providence whose ways are past finding out by the average politician. A public man is classified by his deeds, aud not by what newspapers may say of him, and in "politics" a man is judged by the company he keeps. Coiiunis.sioner.s ccedinirs. Tuusday, April 1st, 1S79.
