E. BOSEWATEB. Publisher If Mr. Dillon has taken the trou ble to peruse the Herald's Sunday morning plain talk, he must have come to the inevitable conclusion, thai plain talk isjare and soft soap very abundant in this locality. Accokdiko to the New York Tribune the West Point examina tions have not been as attractive t!iis year as usual because the warm ,-weatherhas kept the pretty girls away. Wasn't the absence of the "'Grecian benders due to the extreme frigidity of the cadets? ' Jt takes the Napoleons to regu late the. Boclieforts, and France is for the Napoleons for that, and for other more important reasons. Herald. Almost any imperial autocrat could regulate the Rocheforts and other anti-monarchical editors; but it takes a Moltke, Kaiser Wilhelm and a Bismarck to regulate the Napoleons. THE Mormon Congressional apos tle is safe for the present session at least. His persuasive eloquence and other substantial inducements seem to have produced a very marked change in the committee of exec tions. A few days ago they were almost unanimous for Cannon's ex pulsion, and now a majority are in clined to the opinion that polygamy might as well be endured in Con gress as in the land of the latter day Saints. President Grant is represented as openly hostile to the civil rights bill. Now, if the mixing of colored and white children in the public schools is the most objectionable feature of the bill, we should be pleased to know why President Grant tolerates colored students at Anapolis and West Point? If the most aristocratic schools In the country are open to colored students, why should the common schools be closed against them ? Twenty acres of Train's Omaha plantation is advertised to be sold on the 13th of June for interest and taxes to cover $3,500. This is less than $200 an acre for Omaha city lots. San Francisco Cltroniclc, For the Information of the Citron, ide and other contemporaries whose sympathies are aroused by Train's black-mailing circulars, we will state tltat the twenty acres were sliced from, the portion of Train's plantation which is the remotest and therefore the least valuable. ThU was done at the request of "his personal friends for his special ac commodation. The assessment may also be low,as is usual in forced ah erift sales. Some of Train's lands would sell readily .at $2,000 per acre. Tiiire are eight woolen mills now -in operation on the Pacific coast They give permanent em- 'ployment to fifteen hundred opera tives. The capital invested in each of these factories varies from $40,000 to $150,000, according to capacity. Now we see no reason why woolen mills should not prove just as remu- Iterative in Nebraska as in Califor nia or Oregon. There are to-day c Tiekrly one hundred thousand sheep grazing in our Valleys. Instead of exporting the raw pro duct.to eastern mills; and exchang ing it for blankets, woolen cloth and J yarns, we might just as readily save the expense of douWe transporta- tioa, and leave the profits of the dealer and manufacturer in our own State 3 Ve desire to call the attention of Omaha tax-payers to the fact that the City Council will be in session as a board of equalization during Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday oftke present week. People who have any complaints to make about tber assessments upon their prop jetty, should avail themselves of this opportunity to present their respective claims and grie vaaees to the only tribunal legally, authorized to make correc tieas ea the tax list. Many of our heaviest tax payers have heretofore made M a practice to ignore the boards ef equalization with a- view of seeuring reductions or remis sions by lobbying wiUi CouncIImen. This sharp practice often proves uajost so the poorer tax payer, and we hajse will hereafter be done away with. -No changes should be made in the tax list after the adjourn meate the Board of Equalization, excepting ia caseswhere clerical mis- takes or omissions occur. If this regulation was rigidly enforced, the Council would waste less time upon jmd escape much ahhoyanpe from people who want their taxes re duced or remitted, upon all sorts of One of the most eminenf physi cians in this city declares that, un less our municipal authorities jhall, without delay, cause the removal of accumulated rubbish and decaying vegetable-matler-from- our streets and alleys, Omaha will be infected with epidemic malarial diseases within ninety days. The Executive Board of the Re publican State Central Committee will meet in this city on Tuesday. The objects of the meeting have al ready been stated by the Bee in general terms. Although the action of the execu tive committee, is at best but pre liminary, here is one subject to which we deem it our duty to il attention. The State Central Committee, as originally constitu ted, was composed of one member from each Senatorial district This arrangement, like our legislative ap portionment, may of course be some what inequitable, but it afforded at least, a partial opportunity to the Republicans in the various sections, to have their representatives in tne committee. The removal of several members of the committee from the districts which had elected them as their representatives naturally raises the question whether these members have not forfeited the right foTmem berahlp This is always the casein legislative and representative bodies, and we should also oonslder it ap plicable in this Instance. While we have no objection to any particular member of the Com mittee, it seems to us that justice and equity demand that the people of each section should be represent ed by men who reside among them and have an opportunity to know their wishes. For instance : No can did person would coatend that Un coln,which is entitled tobne member should be represented by four mem bers and yet such will be the case if the committee Is not reconstructed. For our part we believe such a re construction is imperatively neces sary. Wo want to see every section and every district represented by men who are bona fide residents there ; men thoroughly identified with the wants and interests of their constitu ences, and we hope to see every member present, when the new ap portionment is made, in order that no section shall have Just reasons for complaint STATE JOTTDTOS.

The third camp meeting for the promotion of Christian Holiness, as experienced and taught by the Wes leys and their co-adjutors, will be held near Bennett, on the Midland Paclfio railroad, twenty miles east of Lincoln, beginning July 1, 1874, and to continue seven days. Saturday morning, about six o'clock, Mr. Robert Ashworth, an old citizen of Nebraska City, saw a skiff coming down the Missouri river and supposing he could safely land it, got beyond his depth, and before aid could reach him he sank. The most unremitting efforts were made to recover the body, but with out success. The following counties in this State return as exempt under the law, by reason of tree planting, three hundred and fifty-four thou sand dollars in round numbers; Cass, Butler, Jefferson, Johnson, Lancaster, Pawnee, Saline, Seward, Thayer, York and "Washington. In the'whole State the total exemption will not be less than one million of dollars, which shows about twenty thousand acres planted in forest and orchards in the State the past years. There has been one hundred and twenty-eight convicts, during the four years the penitentiary has been in use. Of these only forty-one acknowledged their guilt All the others, according to their story, were Innocent men, who were wrongfully confined.

STATE G&AHGE POINTS. A meeting of the Gage county Association P. of H. will be held at Beatrice next Friday. The Grangers are making pre parations to have a grand 4th of July celebration at Stanton. B The Grange in South Western Nebraska is reported in a most flourishing condition. The Loup City Grange held an interesting meeting, Saturday, June 6th. A German Grange in Lancas ter county publishes a set of resolu tions in the Journal bitterly denun ciatory of the crusade. The Grangers of Nemaha county have decided to purchase goods wherever they can do so, to the best advantage, regardless of the orders ot the County Council. Preparations are in progress under the supervision of the Jeffer son county patrons, to make a most imposing celebration, on the anni versary of American indepen dence. The Saunders county Grange celebration on July 4th will be held at Bissel's Grove instead of Miller's Grove as heretofore reported. The change was made by the committee of arrangements. The prospect for the co-operative store in Omaha, for the benefit ofDoutrlas and Sarpy county gran gers, is, as yet, uncertain. There is a very marked division of senti ment among patrons on this sub ject. All Patrons of Husbandry in Merrick county are invited to meet with Midland Grange, No. 465, at the court house in Lone Tree, Sat-' urday, June 13th, at 2 o'clock p. m., to take steps towards properly cele brating our National birthday. J. H. Painter, the pioneer Ne braska Granger, formerly from Har lan county, now of Lincoln Is mak ing arrangements to publish a weekly paper devoted exclusively to the Patrons. It will.be known as the Nebraska Patron tt.o Pmniw f!nrmtv Council re- solved not to have a fourth of July celebration under the auspices of 1. -onrra Vvilt in llTlitft With til 6 citizens of Pawnee city and county for the purpose or ceieoraung mo .W' -aithniit distinction of race, color or previous condition. The Brownville Advertiser re ports that the Grangers meeting at Grand Prairie school-house, last week, after adjournment, resolved itself into a political caucus. An mum oir mooHTicrwaa lipid and reSO- lutions were adopted to put a ticket In tne neiu ior tne uciooer eiecuuu, irrespective of Democracy or Repub licanism, and a committee of two from each precinct was appointed as a central committee. This commit tee will meet Saturday the 20th inst, to fix upon a time and place for holding a county convention, and apportioning delegates- to the different precincts. The name adopted for the new party, is "The Farmers' and Laborers' Indepen dent Party." NEBRASKA CE0P NOTES. Crops of all kinds are looking well. Sutton (Clay Co.) Times. Wheat growing finely. Howard County Advocate. The prospects for an abundant crop was never better. Pawnee JRcpublican. The grape crop along the Blue promises a remarkable yield. Crete Jhst. The wheat crop is now more than a foot high, and the late' rains have started it growing in splendid style. Lincoln Journal. The refreshing showers of the week will add thousands of bushels of grain to the graneries of our coun ty. Burtonian. The farmers report that the show ers of last week was of incalculable value to the crops. They are more hopeful and cheerful. Cloumbus Journal. The refreshing aud copious rains of Saturday and. Monday are hav ing a'decided effect in giving grain and other crops a most luxuriant growth. Seward Jieporter. Cultivating corn is now in order. Wheat never looked better at this season of the year, and good crops are anticipated. Grand Island In dependent. The late rains .brought potato vines out of the ground, and potato bugs which have anxiously awaited their arrival, are now feasting to their heart's content West Foint Hepublican. Colonel Patterson, who has just turned from the Republican, reports crops in that valley as abundant and most promising. He says that all along the valloy they could not be better. The "Great American Desert !" eh lLowel Register. Elegant rains have been vouch safed us so far this spring, and ma terially aided the farmers in break ing the prairie sod. Large Jots of breaking are everywhere seen, and the growing crops are looking splen did. Loup City (Sherman County) News. Corn looks well throughout the county and the farmers have teams busy cultivating it. Most of the farmers have ploughed their corn over once and are going through it the second time. We predict for Saunders county the largest crop this yearshe has ever raised, if the prospects keep as Tfavorable for a few wetks longer. Ashland Times. James T. Kennedy brought us, one day last week, two or three stalks of corn that measured sixteen inches in height, and says that he lias forty acres that will average as good, Wo have had two or three good showers since, aud splendid growing weather, and we would be safe in saying that the whole field will to-day average two feet tall. Sarpy Sentinel. Larger area sown to spring wheat than last year, probably one-third more. The crops at this time give promise of a good yield. Oats promise well. Very little fall wheat sown, not enough worth reporting. Not so large a breadth planted in corn as in some years past. The cold, backward spring has .made com planting unusually late, and it is yet too early to make any esti mate of what the crop will be. Notwithstanding the high price of seed potatoes, at least the usual quantum of land has been devoted to that edible. The late rains are highly favorable, and unless the bug, which has already made its appearance in many fields, proves very destructive, the early planting gives promise of an abundant yield. Small fruit, sucbj as grapes, plums and gooseberries, promise a good yield, and every peach tree large enough to bloom is literally loaded down with peaches. Beatrice ( Qagc Co.) Express. Rain has been the order for the past week. Vegetation is growing rapidly. If nothing happens out of tiie common course of events crops will be excellent. Old potato grow ers tell us that they never saw bet ter prospects for an abundant potato crop than there is in this part of the State now. No bugs have made their appearance yet, and we notice that large patcnes are aireauy in blossom. For all kinds of crops rain and sunshine have come just in the amount necessary to produce abun dant growth. Hastings (Adams Co,) Jorrnal. Crops are looking unusually well for this time of year, In this part of the State. Wheat looks especially promising, and there is every indi cation of more than an average crop. Unless some unseen event transpires to prevent, Antelope county will produce two bushels of wheat where she has produced one before. This fact is mainly owing, of course, to the increased breadth of land sown. Corn has grown finely the past week, as has vegetation of all kinds. Taken upon the whole, and the farmers have never had bet ter prospects than those which beem upon them, from out of what ap pears to be azure sky. We sincerely wish that their fondest hopes may Ih realized. Oakdale (Antelope Co.) Journal. Never, probably, since the settle ment of our county, have the crops of all kinds, at this season of the year, been in better condition or promised a richer harvest There has been at least twice the amount of wheat sown in the county this season as in any previous one, and should the season continue as favor able as it is at present, the harvest will be immense and the granaries of our farmers filled to overflowing. An unusually large amount of corn has also been planted, which is everywhere doing finely, and the most of it ready for the cultivator. Owing to the scarcity, and conse quently high price ot potatoes last season, a larger quantity of them have been planted this year, than usual, and Use all other crops look splendid, and promise an unprece dentedly large yield. Not a destroy ing bug, worm, or insect. of any kind, has put in an appearance, and a more hopeful and happy set of mortals than our farmers, would be hard to find. Lone Tree (Merrick Co.)
