The Sunday law passed by tho Louisiana Legislature is denounced by everybody hut tho polico, who expect to derive a largo reveuuo by blackmail.

The Omaha Bee complains that shippers on the line of the Elkborn Valley road who desire to supply the Omaha hog market are being systematically bull-bozed. One man is reported as not daring to ship to Omaha because the railroad authori ties threatened to break up bis bus iness unless he shipped direct to Chicago. Omaha would, of course, like to see the whole volume of business pour towards itself, and has not had any thing to say against the unjust rail road discrimination which has tried to effect that object. Business en terprises in other portions of the state may start up. flourish for awhile, then be cut short in their prosperous career by that unjust dis crimination of the railroads which has innred to the benefit of Omaha capitalists, yet we bear nothing against this from the great metropol itan dailies, which profess to repre sent the interests of all the com munities in the state. The corropt rings must be broken ; there must be some means found to throw off tho yoke of monopoly misrule; railroads must, somehow and shortly, be taught n'ot to discrim inate against individuals or com munities; it must be made impossible for a railroad company to threaten, with impunity, business destruction to the local dealer who insists on fair play and the recognition of what onght to bo the inalienable rights of freemen. When this good time comes, as it surely shall, other places in the state, outside Omaha and Lincoln, will be able to institute and carry on con tinuously every sort of manufactur ing industry adapted to our resources and needs ; in that good time, packing houses outeide Omaha will not ho driven out of business by the rail road companies, iu order that Omaha packers may have everything their own way. As things are now, it is a grinding shame that any manufacturing or wholesale interest in the state must ask the transportation companies for leave to live, and this iB not confined to the Eikhorn Valley road. Their answer to the contrary has been the death knell of more than one enter prise in Nebraska. We ask the Bee, who is the ardent champion of tho people's rights in general, and whose views reach al most every wido-awako man in the state, to look into this question to the bottom. The real interests of Omaha and Nebraska are not in conflict, but in unison. The evils that hurt one, hurt the other ; the good that comes to the one, comes to the other also, and the remedy which will be effectual for ono, will answer for both. You have facilities, through your local reporters and traveling cor respondents, for gathering tho facts here and there, of which you will find a fearful array, thousands of complaints yet unuoticcd and un satisfied (notwithstanding tho very arduous work of the railroad com mision); after compiling and clasi fying these facte of oppression, these shameless acts of tyrrany, these outrages upon American citizens who had fondly supposed they lived in a land of freedom, draw up a second declaration of iudepondenco, and the people will demand a new order of things. As the leading newspaper of the state, leading in circulation and in influence, it is your duty to fight, not only for Omaha, but for any other community iu the state that may be unjustly assailed. The Oravsid Inlaad Watcrworki. They bad a fire out at Grand Island Wednesday night that demonstrated the utility of their new waterworks. The fire started In an old frame building in the midst of the business part of the city about midnight, with a brisk wind blowing. It was dis covered after it had made enough headway to have the wbolo upper part of the building on fire. The alarm was given and soon three streams of water from the many hy drantsjwere playing on it. The fire was llteral'y drowned out in a short time. The chief importance attached to the affair is dne to the fact that this was the first trial of tho waterworks, which are on a new system devised by Mr. A. A. Richardson of this city. They are not yet complete, but they did most excellent service, throwing the three streams to the bight of 75 leet Tho chief peculiarity is in the source ot supply.

These are connected with a main auction pipe, ten inches in diameter, and pumpiug is doue in the tKuul way. Only hair the pipes were connected the other night, but with pumps throwing at the rato of 1,500,000 gallon per day they could not effect the supply. The great ad vantage of the Richardson system is is its cheapness. The wells at Grand Island were put in at a cost of $1,000, while Lincoln's big well cost 120,000.

During the epriug term daily lentracUon and prentice in the different breaches of dairying ia given the iadiea of the second near by the instractor ia household At a reception to Rev. Dr. Sew ard, in New Britain, Conn., recently, reminiscences were in order. It was said that Dr. Seward insisted, when appointed pastor, in 1836, that he should not be. called upon for more than two public service each Sunday ; that one member of the church shortly afterwards paryed that the pastor would receive grace to preach in the morning and after noon and, "if his strength held out, he might continue in the evening." Dr. Seward told of receiving a bush el of turnips once for marrying a couple, and some years later the bridegroom appeared and passed out a 10 bill, saying that "his wife had turned out so well that be felt justified in the expenditure." A man once came into church late, and started, with tqueaky boots, to walk the whole length of a side gallery, when an exchange pastor stopped suddenly in his prayer, opened bis eycB, and, pointing a long finger at the disturber, said: "You sit down right where you are." Be then re sumed his prayer. Chicago Herald. It is said that a change in senti ment evidenced by the Omaha Her ald is due to the fact that, instead of Geo. L. Miller alias M. L. George) being at the helm, it is now an active Irishman. This would account for the following paragraph : "It in still to be said that, with the exception of the inexcusable assault upon Lord Salisbury, Mr. Blaine's address upon the Irish question in Portland was one of the best and broadest expressions that has been given by any man of intelligent American opinion upon the subject." The truth is, it is high time for editors to emphasize the (act that superior intelligence U to bo accord ed its place in the world. Many newspapers have engaged in the im possible task of making much out of mean men. The turn of the lane U evidently in sight, when the Omaha Herald can utter even a single word in commendation of Blaine. The remark is often made by mar ried ladies, "If my husband should die, how could I settle up his busi ness. I know nothing of his books, and in factj know nothing of the gen eral principles of business." Men in sure their lives for the benefit of their wives and families. This shows good judgment, but its good results are overbalanced through the neg lect in assisting them to accomplish the ways -of business. Parents, an awful responsibility bangs over you, aud an indebteduess of immense proportions is owed, by you to your daughters. That in debtedness would be paid by your giving them a good practical business education. Without this, you leave the fair ones in the hands of the wolves, Lincoln Monthly. John Kersch and family, of Steam's Prairie, were visiting at the home of Mr. Headman, about five miles south of town, last Sunday, and while there their little threo-ycar-old daughter wandered away from the house. Sho was not missed for a long time, but when it was discovered that sho wan not on the premises a wild and exciting search was immediately instituted. The child was finally found by Mr. W. II. Lewis, in a slough near his place, fast asleep. The little one had gone a distance of nearly three miles, fol lowing the railroad track and crocta two bridges, one over a stream, aud how the little one escaped falling through tho trestle work seems ' al most miraculous.

"Iu the mul titude of counsel there is wisdom." Ed. Journal. Hew NcaeelN Can be Referred. A great many people Bcem to take extreme delight in finding fault with our country schools, and are ever on tho alert for reform. For the benefit of such, who are ever ready to make themselves popular by attacks on our schools, I havo a few suggestions to offer. 1st. Don't try to get your legisla tors to pass innumerable bills. There are things that legislators can not do ; they can not make people temperate, virtuous or industrious. They can have no power to say what we shall eat, drink or wear, neither what we shall think. For the benefit of said reformer., I would advise a short course in law as a sure cure for their ailins. 2d. Don't he preaching about re form ho much, but ijuyin iu your own school district. Tho people who make the loudest noise ibuut public schools are thot-e who never visit one, and who know nothing about them only from hearsay. See that your school board employ a good teacher, visit the school, give the teacher some of your plans for improvement. Look at the methods employed, encourage the children. Tell your neighbors to visit the school. If you aro a farmer, give the teacher a few ideas in regard to farming, gardening or botany. Belp the teacher to fix up the school room to make it attractive. Ask your own children about the work they are doing in school. Some of our coun try schools are almost worthless on account of the indifference of many of the said reformers, and no school can be made to tower very far above the average culture of the people who surround it. 3d. See that your neighbors elect the best men in the district for mem bers of the school board. If you take no interest in the annual school meet ing yon are to blame for incompetent ottcers. If you are wild for reform, run for the office yourself. Try to keep, a good teacher when you get one';tfier a fair salary, aad the chances are that yon will get a mart, wide-awake teacher. Don't expect to reform a school without good text books. Good books are next to good teachers. Don't imagine that chang ing text books for the better would be ruinous to the school. Notice the Chinese, who have had a uniform series ot text books for the last 3,000 years. Are their schools better than ours? Whenever you think that school books are worthless, go to work and get up something better. Don't get. the idea that the older the text books the better they are, and that modern books are trash. Don't for once imagine that you or the teacher or legislators can wholly overcome the lawa of descent and make children brilliaut scholars, or industrious, temperate, frugal, law loving citizens. You may possibly think that it is the duty of the state to teach every boy a trade, and then to find him employment. Or you be lieve in confihiug the studies in school to reading, writing, arithmetic and geography. You will find the common sense of the people stronger than your conservatism, and nothing can stem the tide that has set iu for free and higher education. Lewis B. Leavv. ADDITIONAL LOCAL.
