Another canal scheme has been sprung which contemplates the tapping ot the J'Jatto river at a instance of thirtv miles from Omaha and constructing a canal eight miies in length by which a fall of fortv feet will be obtained. It is proposed to develop at first but a 2,000 horso power, and to transmit this bv wire a distance ot twentv-nino miles into Omaha. The idea is to mako a small beginning, to develop more power as the city needs it and to be able to utilize the 2,000-horse power within a very few months. Gov.

Washinjrton Ijetter. From our regular correspondent. 1 Attorney General Olney, although said to bo a good lawyer, has none of tho tact in dealing with politicians which is bo necessary for a member of tho cabinet to havo if he wishes to escape becoming unpopular. Tho most influential demo cratic senator or representative is treated with tho coldest and uiost indifferent courtesy if ho calls on Mr. Olney without an endorsement, oral or written, from somebody fortunate onough to enjoy the priceless boon of his acquaintance. Nat urally enough tho democrats do not like this sort of treatment. Within the mem ory of many inen now in public life there was another attorney general from Mas sachusettsMr. Hoar, who was in Gen. Grant's cabinet who had Mr. Olney "s knack of offending his political callers by not treating them as they thought themselves entitled to bo treated, and the result might bo profitably studied by Mr. Olney. Gen. Grant nominated Attorney General Hoar to a vacancy on tho supremo court, and was greatly sur prised when informed that he could tako his choice between withdrawing the nomination or having it unanimously rejected. It was withdrawn. After what had been said about Mr. Cleveland's intentions, by thoso near him, tho appointment of Judge William Lochren, of Minnesota to be commis sioner of pensions, was a very pleasant surprise to republicans, who generally feared the selection of some man who had not been in tho army at all. Judge Lochren was a brave soldier, and if ho is allowed to have his way in conducting the business of tho Pension bureau, the interests of his soldier comrades will bo safe. But, if somo democrats of influ ence know what they are talking about, he isn't to have his own way, but is merely to follow without tho slightest deviation lines laid down by Mr. Cleve land for tho government of that bureau. Well, we shall soon see, as ho assumes office abont tho first of May. As a press muzzier Postmaster Gener al Bissell 'is not a shining success. His order against making public the changes in fourth-class postmasters was issued in the morning and suspended in tho after noon. Reason: a unanimous kick, from democrats as well as from republicans. He has another scheme however, by which he hopes to prevent the bad char acter of some of the applicants for ap pointments as fourth class postmasters - becoming public until after their ap- pointiuent. He requires every senator and representative who endorses a can- . didate to promise that neither the name of: their candidate nor of any other or others there may be shall be made public before the appointment. This rule ex pedites appointments because it makes it impossible for citizens to protest . against objectionable candidates, but it is bound to result in somo very bad appointments. The United States now has two full fledged ambassadors, Bayard to Great Britain, and Eustis to France, both of whom have been confirmed by tho senate. Remonstrances ngfcinst the sending of Max Judd, the St Louis Jew, to Vienna, as U. S. Consul General have been un availing. He has been commissioned and will sail this week, unless the Aus trian government formally protests. Jerseys for the Dairy, by Kathnne, S. Handke. From a 6eries of prize essays published by the American Jersey Cattle Clnb. With the continual decline in the prices of all cereals, more farmers are gradually awaking to the fact that some other held of industry must be opened if they would lift the mortgage from their homes, or enjoy any or the com-' forts and luxuries which wealth alone can buy. Many of these overburdened farmers have, along with their grain-raising, dabbled in dairying; but, from lack of care and an understanding of the laws of inbreeding, their stock has degenera ted until the profits, if profits they may be called, when the cost of keeping is considered, amount to the few necessities of the table. The fact that good butter always com mands a steady price as shown by the market reports of any paper, has led many to inquire more closely into the naturo and possibilities of this particu lar branch of dairying. That there must first be a change in the grade of their stock most farmers are convinced, and to those beginners who cannot afford tho time or means to prove which breed of cattle is best adapted to their needs the experience of open-eyed, truthful men is invaluable. Among the many breeds whose merits havo been discussed and advocated by leading dairymen are the Jerseys. These cattle, natives of the Channel Island of that name, have been introduced into our country by the pro gressive American, who saw in them the possibilities of a grander sphere of use fulness than that of mere ornamenta tion. That they are particularly well fitted for dairy purposes is shown by the quality of their milk and the readiness with which they convert their food into butter-fat It has long been conceded by experienced dairymen and thiB is indeed the Jerseys' strong point that they produce more butter from a given amount of proper food than any other breed; and since economy is one of tho roads to wealth, the man who feeds a dollar's worth of food to a Jersey cow and receives in return two dollars fcr his labor is nearer his goal than tho possessor of inferior stosk, who ofttimes is not repaid for the food they eat, to say nothing of his labor. Then to change these unprofitable nnimals,which yield three or four pounds of butter a week, for thoso requiring no inoro food or care, and which prodnce eight or nine pounds a week, is a question which ought to command his immediate atten tion. The widespread distribution of Jersey cattlo throughout tho United States proves that they are not restricted to any particular climate, and their rapid increase proves that they are not more susceptible to diseaso than any other breed. Consumers of milk in cities are more quick to appreciate the difference in quality betweon Jersey and ordinary milk than we would suppose, and they would willingly pay a better price if they could be guaranteed tho better article. That tho owner of Jersey products could readily create a demand for his articles is unquestionable. Why, then, should he not? Now that the patrons of many cheese-factories are being paid according to the amount of fat found in their milk, there is an added reason why he should not hesitate to improve his stock. Many people will tell you that the high records mado by somo Jersey cows aro exceptions; but it is not to theso special cases, winch you, from lack of means, perhaps cannot afford to imitate, but to the record of the general Jersey wo would havo you turn for con vincing proof that she might bo your home's salvation. It is a mistake among amateur dairymen that they seek to combine tho qualities of a beef and but ler producer. This invariably results in a beef-producer; but if he persists iu hia object, lot him not tamper with tho Jersey, whose mission is strictly that of butter-making. There is much for the beginner to learn concerning tho proper food and care of tho Jersey, and there is no better means than through tho columns of some good dairy paper, rich with the experience and counsel of men who have made these cattle a grand success. Their beauty, their gentleness, and, abovo all, the superior quality of their milk, justify them in their claims to the title of "dairy queens," and make them a desirable object in the eyes of tho con templative buyer. To possess a Jersey is to be inspired to nobleness, and to care for one is to be educated to gentle ness and an appreciation of beauty. ADDITIONAL LOCAL. WHKUE IS YOUK BOY? A Journal Correspondent Tells What he Saw. Editor Journal: Twice, within the ten days I havo been in this town, I have seen boys under fourteen drunk; not playing drunk, nor merely tipsy, but ".sure enough drunk." Tho two boys I saw in that condition Sunday afternoon wero so drunk they couldn't stand, and would havo been in danger of being run over by trains (as they were near the railroad track), had not two other boys been atching them. I learned that ono of the latter had got the wisky for them. It seems that some people send their children to tho saloons and drug stores to get liquor, and of course if they can got it for their parents they can get it for other boys. I learned who the boys were who were drunk and went to the father of one of them. His boy drunk? Oh no! that was impossible, he was only ten years old and besides ho hated the sight and tasto of whisky. But tho name and description fitted his boy. It is incredible that the people'of this town are so indifferent or blind to their own interests. Ed. Hoagland tried to interest them in a boy who, (poor, neg lected waif) is half demented from his wretched habits. But ho couldn't even bo sent to tho Reform school, because the legislature didn't make an appro priation for the support of that institu tion. So these cases of moral leprosy are allowed to walk your streets. When the people of this place reap what they are now sowing, some will wonder why they are so afflicted. When some of their boys have been killed or crippled while drunk; when somo have committed murder; ethers suicide; when others have become in mates of penitentiaries and insane asy lums; when their daughters have been insulted and wronged in ways almost innumerable; when taxes are increased to support poor houses, penitentiaries, reform schools, jails, asylums for the in sane, for orphans and for the feeble minded, they will wonder at the wicked ness of tho world. But they will have forgotten how cold and indifferent they were to the warnings and entreaties of theso "enthusiasts" "cranks" and fanatics like Hoagland and Yours trulv, R R. Bor. Our correspondent had probably not learned that the waif he speaks of was provided for at the last meeting of the city council, and probably, by this time, through the philanthropy of Col. Hoag land, combined with the duty of the city council in the premises, has been pro vided with a homo by this time. As for the remainder of the communication we have no comment to mako except on the one sentence: "It is incredible that tho people of this town are so indifferent or blind to their own interests." We have noticed that tho people here are just about as they are elsewhere in this part of tho world. Human nature is much tho same all around. Each individual, by doing, as well as he knows how, the duty that lies nearest at hand, and by trying to keen himself onen and suscon- I tible to all good influences, so that he ; may mako the most of himself and his . conditions. does well. Some men can j. act upon these principles, who are totally t unfitted for talking to men and boys who do not even try to do right It u tikey to say, "Where there is a will, there is a way," (und this is doubtless true as & general proposition), bat the presence and power of evil in the world and among men has always been the serious problem of life, and also a stambliag block to many, but no man in his right senses and with his eyes open, walks willingly to ruin over a precipice the fall is always the result of some mistake, blunder or wrong intent. People cannot do more than help others help themselves. This every ono owes to his fellow-beings. Communities owe it to their own welfare to guard their youth, their weak and their ignorant against the wiles and the machin ations of the wicked. Blessed the community, as well as blessed the indi vidual that chooses the right Ed. JoURNAIi. District Court. J. E. Ainsworth v John Fisher, et al sale confirmed and deed ordered.

Farmer" Club. At the last meeting Mr. Mayes brought with him a bee-hive and used it as an object lesson. He thinks the big top frames most desirable on account of their strength, and convenience in examining the condition of the colony. R. W. Young read a paper on apple culture, in which he said not to dig the holes too deep for young apple trees. If the roots or branches have been bruised in lifting, cut the injured parts off with a sharp knife, making a smooth cut. Place tho tree in the hole, standing slightly to the south that the body of the tree may be protected from the hot sun; then put the top soil carefully among the roots and do not fill np any higher on the tree than it was before. Cut off the points of tho branches to stop top growth, and throw the strength into the roots. Mulch well bnt not too close to the tree. He recommends but little pruning during the growth of the tree, and that in the center of the top to keep it open to receive the sunlight. The lower branches bear the first fruit.
