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.

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. Instead of haviug
a big well, as at Lincoln, thirty-six
two-inch pipc6 am driven dowu to
the depth of filly feet over an area
scarcely a big a a common resi
dence lot. 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.

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

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.

fast asleep. The little one had gone
a distance of nearly three miles, fol

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.
