THK condition of President Gfarfiold ' . ' " trnmi I * is regarded as extremely alarming if not absolutely liopolesi.

While then is life there is hope but in this case hope has almost fled and while wo moat fervently pray that the bitter cup may bo turned away , wo cannot repress the fear that the heroic spirit of James A.

Tlio meeting hold on Wednesday rcning to discuss the tr.ido relations if our city to Northern Nebraska narks , we hope , the bo inning of nn norgotic move on the part of Omaha ncrchantfl towards occupying the rich ml fertile territory of which they ave been heretofore practically do- irivcd. A railroad up the valley of he Logan nnd from thence tip the ilkliorn to Wnyno county was looted nnd steps looking to n liorough discussion of the plan ought t once to bo tnkcn. Such n trans- ortation is generally needed * Years go the Omaha & Northwestern cnmo nto existence under the stimulus of n nrgo stnto land grant nnd n subsidy of 1DO,000 from our citizens. The line 'as constructed moro with n view to conomy of funds thnn lo the inter- sts of this city nnd the country lying orth. By avoiding the high ground nd seeking the bottoms adjncont to Sio river the original cost as greatly lessened , but at 10 sanio time the richest ortiona of Washington nnd Burt ountios were loft in the cold nnd the oad bed itself placed whore its main- cnanco has always since been n heavy xponso. If a railroad cnn bo constructed rom Omaha northward which taking 10 high lands above Florence ntrikcs orthwostorly into the valley of the jogan nnd then passes up the Elk- orn to llio northern tier of counties : io scheme will bo equally profitable o our city and nil Northern Nebraska , 'hero uhould bo no difliculty in rnis- ig capital sufllcicnt for such an 011- orpriso without calling upon the city r county for local aid. There nro nough men of means in Omaha to ako up the construction of the road > carry it through to completion ithout loss or inconvenience. Thcso ten know that under the modem ystom of railroad construction n com- nratively small sum of ready capital is ufliciont to build a great many miles f road when the adjuncts of stock nd bonds is taken into consideration. , ud if such a line is once constructed . hun its operation on its sale to ex- sting roads would leave a handsome nargiu of profit in the pockets of its roprietors. THK BEK urges upon our merchant lie necessity of bestcrring themselves n this matter of extending their rado into Noi them Nebraska. With- n its lovely and fertile valleys lie the ichcst farming lands of our state miidrods of thousands of acres > f which nrc in n state f only partial cultivation.

The people of northern Nebraska nro na loyal to ho staio ns those south of the Platto. \11 things being equal they would ( refer to cultivate commercial rela- lens with our city iy the exclusion of , nulo'iu cities in other states. For nany years they have been cut elF rom us through thu lack of railroad iccommodations and our wholesale louses havu onlybocn able to retain a oothold on the territory at great ex pense nnd inconvenience. The Oma in & Klkhorn line will nt once mark .ho commercial nuptials of Nebraska1 ! ) Metropolis and northern Nebraska. The sooner the road in built tlio bot- ; cr for all parties concerned.

This plan would no doubt meet with the official sanction o Mayor lloyd. With such an ordinance u number of saloon-keepers , who have already paid their license money unti January Ist und who cannot uiTord to put down $1,000 , * in * cash , would b ( able to continue in business. I would rob the law of ono of its most ob jcctionablo features , that of maintain ing a monopoly in the liquor.

It is very much to bo re- trotted to bo sure that the only way ut of the trouble is bonds to a com- oting line , but such is the case and bcintc the CMC the bonds bo forthcoming. .Tlio pco- lo of Lancaster , Saunders nd Dodge will , wo presume , 'com ' it very cheap , if for ono hun- , rcd nnd fifty thousand dollars they ro enabled to shako loose the rail- oad leeches that have fastened them- elves thick and deep upon the very italsof their [ !

THK IKE has no disposition to lay stone in the way of Lincoln in any fibrt to secure fair treatment nt the ands of the 33. & M. nnd Union Pa- ific by the construction of a compo- ing line. Our position simply is nnd has been onsistent opposition to the further oting of subsidies to railway corpo rations. If there over was nny ox- use for voting bonds to cncourngo mill oad building in Nebraska that line has passed nway. Money is bundant , and wherever capitalists an build a railroad with reasonable respect of n fair traffic they are cady and anxious to build. It is Imply absurd to claim that 8150,000 ro needed to induce the Chicago Northwestern to extend its no from Fremont to Lincoln , 'hnt ccrporation is building u nd rods of miles of branch roads in owa and Wisconsin without n dollar f subsidy nnd it can nnd will build lie Lincoln nnd Fremont stub at any line without a dollar of bonds if its lanngcrs have a dcsiro to reach out i that direction. It would bo foolish nd criminal for the farmers of Saun- ors and Dodge county to vote mort ages on their homesteads , to Biibai- ize this railroad when any man of ommon xonsc can see that the money vill bo pocketed by n construction ing , organized for that purpose. It s the province of nil fearless and out- pokon papers to warn people against 11 such schemes nnd this is nil THE 3ti : : has done in the premises. ANOTHKII river improvement con- cation has just boon called by the It. Louis Merchant's ' Erchango to bo lold in that city on October 2Cth. [ his convention scums to be cs- > ecially dcsipnod for urging the im- tmroinont of the Mississippi riv er nnd its navigable tributaries. ) no of tho' objects sought to bo ac- loinpliuhod by this convention is con- : ort of action on the part of the west uid south in congress. Eighteen utales nnd thrco territories are diroct- y interested in the improvement of p .ha Mississippi and its navigable trib- itarics , and if the representatives of f .hu west nnd south in congress pull I ouothur there is no doubt they can jot all thu necessary appropriations from the national government that may bo needed to miiko the Mis souri nnd Mississippi rivers navigable 'rom the gulf of Mexico to the Rockies. Leading engineers hare already taken n "ory active interest in Lhe proposed improvement of our in land water routes , and it only requires concerted notion on the part of the ropresontatic's of the states and forri- tbrics in the Mississippi nnd Missouri basins. ' { , vt , No paper in this uountry lias done more to ferret out nnd expose the in famous frauds perpetrated upon the govornmunt by the star route ring than the Now York Times. In this good work no labor , pains or oxpo'nso hnvo been spared to present reliable , Hpocifio statements covering the var ious star route contracts and the tlis- honest methods whereby vast funus of . money were squandered nnd stolen under the pretext of public necessity. In this instance ns in its vxpotmro of the Tweed ring the Times him buon no respecter of persons or station ' hut has fearlessly published the iiamo of every man connected with thi'su dis reputable transaction . Tun attempt of Sessions , the state senator , who stands indicted for bribery , to soouro n re-nomination on thu republican ticket for the next logislnturo is n sad commentary on the low grade of morals in Now York politics , The only man in Nebraska that would match Sessions is Church Tlowo. AR TO thu authority of the vice- president to assume the office as acting president by his own act , ox-Gov. lion- dricks recently said with obvious truth ; "While it would be a bold tiding to do , I can fancy cases in which it would bo justifiable and proper. Suppose - pose the president was notoriously dis abled from performing his public duties , the business of the government was entirely obstructed , the public interests injured , and the cabinet i. usurping powers that do not belong to them , ought the \ ice-president , to whom the constitution looks to to prevent just such evils , to rcmnin passive nnd do nothing. " Industrial Training iu Schools- ( IcuUnit Lender. The opinion is becoming prevalent that something should bo done for industrial training iu schools The subject has recently received the at tention of n Boston committee , nnd they hnvo reached the conclusion that industrial training , that is to say the training of the the hand nnd eye , and thereby the mind as well , is an inval uable clement of education , nnd deserves - serves recognition nnd support such ns is now given to so-called literary education. The committee nro of the opinion ( that such training will inter est many who do not care for purely literary studies , and also that it will develop faculties left uninstructed by other studies. They conclude that such training should , to n limited ex tent , fonn h part of the public school system. The subject is nlso receiving moro or less attention in New York and Philadelphia , as well as from societies nnd individuals elsewhere , and it is possible , that nt some time in { the future , if public attention is fully drawn to the subject , industrial education will form a component cart of the public school curriculum , There can bo no good reason why it should not , and there are many solid advantages in its favor. The Boston committee point out in their report that tlio United States is far behind other nations m this much needed reform. They present statis- ics , showing that Australia has 1,037 schools for technical instruction , 4- , 290 teachers nnd 07713 pupils' , be sides schools of forestry , mining and agriculture. Bavaria has 1,071 indus trial schools for girls , with Ij837 teachers and 71,035 pupils , a polytech nic school at Munich , 3G technological schools and 4 of agriculture. In Germany there are 34 schools of architecture. 25 of mining , 17 of forestry , 108 of commerce , 146 of agriculture , 10 veterinary and 86 other technical schools. Denmark has 49 ' ' farmers' high schools , " with 3,135 students , of whom 1,003 are females. In Holland thcro are 11 navigation schools and 32 industrial nnd drawing schools. In Switzerland 4,373 females are employed in schools teaching ncodlowork. The subject has likewise been a matter of oflicial investigation in Franco , nnd a commission reported strongly in favor of industrial schools. Much in this direction has nlso been accomplished in Austria and Russia. The committee say that unless we imitate thcao several examples the time may como when this country will have to depend wholly on foreign artisans. They would not have in dustrial training carried to the extent of teaching the actual trades , but simply far enough to enable n work man to vary his industrial pursuits when occasion may render it necessary. The committee furnish examples to show that the training may be so 8r adapted as to commence in the prima ry departments of schools , nnd bo carried oil through superior grades , oven forming a part of the hih school system. As to whether the proposed training t would interfere with other studies , they quote an authority on 8t the t "half-timo system in education , who says , "Thcro is n special mutual 1i influence.between i the school nnd the factory which improves the quality ol the work done in each. " In conclu sion the committee invoke the aid ol associated charities to create a public sentiment in this direction , behoving that the introduction into the public schools of simple nnd fundamental industrial training will provo to bo a public benefit. Seed Corn. .The time is at hand when this question should receive the careful attention of every farmer. The present year's experience with seed corn has taught the most careful some now ideas respecting the care of seed. For some unaccountable reason , much seed that was picked early , and well cared for , did not grow ; while some corn saved at husking time grow well. It is universally conceded that corn picked early , and hung up by the husks , makts the strongest seed. This is true if the corn is thoroughly dried , and well protected during the winter. Wo have known many in stances where send hud boon hung up by the husks and failed to grow , which could , bo easily traced too. cause , Sometimes it is taken from a pile that had boon picked tha day previous , jthich is n mistake , for now corn 09011 heats oifough to destroy1 , the germ. Corn is often hung up too thick in n poorly ventilated place and sours enough to injure its vitality. Tlie last corn the writer hung"up by 'tho shuck was nearly ruined by several cloudy nnd foggy days following the time it was picked/ There are n great nmny caused that work injury to the vitality of corn that is picked green , which makes that manner of saving sued corn of doubtful expediency Wv hftv.o fiavod'ourHeed nt picking time for several years pastnnd always secured excellent Heed.Vo usually put it in the gairet qf the kitclion i , hut it collated mice HO badly wo put ; it lust fall on the top rf tha centre of uji ordinary crib covered with boards. i In selecting \\o are careful to only take ears that \\ill shell readily , which indicates that they ripened early. It is very attentive work some Boasrjna to get good seed of choice coin by this mode. Our reason for saving seed at pick , ing time is ; \Vu are able to secure much bolter variety of corn , and con sequently , can improve the quality greatly nnd thereby increase the crop. , It is a sad fact that most farmers uro vury caruloss in the matter of seeds ; they only aim to plant about an aveiago quality , wnich , by deter iorating ton or fifteen per cent , every year , soon runs out. If there is any crop that will justify the farmer in making choice selec tions of itsBeed. it-is King corn , as 3it itd takes comparatively little seed , and that should bo the best in the tield which can only bo found at husking timo. In selecting si-ed wo always cheese the cars that have the greatest num ber of rows , regardles3 of length. The number of lows of grain wdioatp the ypnojy and , isojoj thojcpKi ; Hip season , soil ami cultivation make the length of Jthe ear , We variety of yellow dent , which we enlarge - largo or reduce nt pleasure. Wo rniso n Inrgo vnriety of deep grained corn that ripens early , and have succeeded ns our seed saved lost fall nt husking nnd grow well proves. Wo reject all cars with less than eighteen rows , nnd when wo find n nice oar with twenty- 'our rows or upwards , wo prize it ns n jewel. Of course nn car of this si7,0 ivill not bring itn kind very correctly , but it will produce much larger corn : hati a sixteen rowed ear will. OCCIDENTAL JOTTINGS. CALIFORNIA.
