TN the beginning of the century there
WM ft most bitter prejudice among a large
dMa of Georgians agailist the oaLabliih
mont of a aupremu court. The small
number of judge and tim moagro salaries
ailowed thorn mark the deference to this
prejudice on tIm part of those who finally
succeeded in having the court created in
1845. It is a curious fact that the hostLi.
fly shown to tim establishment of the
court began with the Virginians in Georgia -
gia , who wcro.Lho most influential public
men in the stale , and who virtually gow-
ornod it in the early part of the lrosollt
century. They had carried with thont to
Georgia a contempt for the "law's delay"
s exhibited in the Court of Appeals of
Virginia.
A bill is now pending before the Georgia -
gia legislature for the relief of the su.
promo court of that state. IL is proposed
t4) ilicreaso tim number of judges te five
and furnish each judge with a stenographic -
graphic clerk. Like Nebraska , thu supreme -
, . promo court of Georgia has only three
judges , but the Georgia court litis a vast
deal more work. There is io pecuniary
limit in Georgia and the docket of its
high9st court has contained cases involving -
- - , ing as little money as one dillar and a
quarter. There is naturally an abuti.
deuce of work. About 600 casosaro , ad.
judiated each year. Thu decision is required -
quired by the atato constitution to be
niado at the term to which the writ of
error is brought , with liberty to the judges
t4i withhold it , whoa necessary , until the
next ; term after tliucaso is aruod. Iii
other words all cases must be decided
ed within twelve months after they are
carried to the appellate court. For this
amount of work , done with this "consti.
tutional the judges receive a sal-
all of $3,000 each.

rIIM4flY IDUCATIOZ
Our iUl1l0 schools will reopen Mon.
lay , a'id we deem it proper to urge upon
the superintendetit. ad bosrd of educa-
ti.ta the primary importance of the
primary schools. In Omaha , as else.
' hero , the relative Proportion of those
rho coniploto their elementary educatioti
' 7 graduating in the hgli school form a
very rmsll fraction of those who receive
tlitir education at. the public expense.
l'ully fifty per cent of the pupils in the
public schools do not pass beyond the
, .rimftry grndei. In other word. , out of
100 boys and girls who enter to the
4mary schools only about 50 go any
( tirther up tIi educational grade. About
thirty rulianco as far M the grsmmsr
schools while not inoro than three of the
original 100 who began at the bottom of
the ladder over roach tim top ti' enter
the high schools. The important fact
which these statitica demonstato , is ,
that about nite-haif tim children
who go to the public schools
f this city enter upon their
ifo-work with no more cihication thaii
Iiiny can pick up at tim primary schuol ,
wliilo the roin'iIiing 25 per cent leave
ichool when , or perhals before they
have gone through a secondary course.
The iiioral of these facts is so plain that
thor can bo no disputing it. Since twice
am many pupils attend the primary schools
its go to any otliordopartmont , and about
one-half of them go nowhere else , the
primary schools doscrvo and deniand the
argoat share of attention and their
.flicioncy should be raised to the highest
ittahiablo standard of excellence.
Juirr as we are entering the month with
the regulation "r" in it the report comes
all the way from Chesapeake bay that a
fatal deacase has broken out among the
Oy8tors , This is sad news but we suspect
the report has merely boon sent abroad
to afford excuse to oyster dashers for
dinps'eitig of last years stab crop.
1FEs21 ; oi TMB Misso c/hi.
The recent decision of Chi f Justice
Senor , of Vyoniing1 in the case of the
United States vs. Alexander Swan ot al ,
enjoining squatters and cattle men from
fencing unsold public lands , is a most
important one to the west. During the
Iaat few years stockinen on the Plains
have fenced in thousands of acres of pub-
lie lands. Tim evil spread to all grazing
districts and increased to such an extent
that the poorer cattlemen and actual sot-
tiers were forced to seek redress in the
courts. Tlio concentration of the cattle
interest in the liatids of a few non-roi-
dent syndicates added to the pbwer of
the usurpers , who , last spring , defied the
interior deirnrtineut by refusing to take
down their fences , in southern Icaiisaa
wheu ordered. to do so. " &uJ. out the
Iniitaty to take theindown"thoy answer-
oiL but a siiiill : biu1 of determined nien ,
wli had been cut off from vator couvses
by the aqluittons , tore dowi the fetices
and liavu since unjoyod equal rights on
thio public lands in that region.
Outside the raiichnienof Wyoming , the
decision meets with unquallied approval
and Pniisc. 'Fhie Cheyenne Sun , speak.
lug of its efFect on the territory , says
"It will remove the barriers heretofore
erected in the face of immigration , and
vilL accomplish more in the work of do-
voinpitig and sotthiiig up the territory
thnncouldbo broughf'about in any other
way. The roinos'nl of these fences really
will work good to all cattle nien , because
It will Iut all on the same lovol. Every
man can thou take his own road uiiless ,
perchance , tim actual settler intervenes
All of the streams will not have been
closed to range cattle , and , in winter ,
when the storms cause them to driftthcre
will not be M tininy fences to bar their
progress and cause them to huddle iii
herds anti perish in tim pitiless storm. "
The defence set up by the stockinon ,
stripped of its legal phraseology , was that
tin , land was wortidess for other than
grazing purposes and that no attempt had
been iiiado to homestead or Pro.oniPt. lilly
portion of thto tracts involved. Yet it
was ahiowzi that the fences 1)lovntod the
free passage of stock and debarred others
Luau those occupying the inclosod tracts
from the benefits of the land. The dcci.
siosi 15 lU accord with two decisions ol
the United States Supreme Court , and
tllO statutes of March 3 , 1807 , which pro

liids fair to be a produciug one within

Several large deposits of chemically
fturo sulphate of soda exist some twelve
uuiijes west of Laratnio. These deposits
arc knowui as thio "soda lakes , " which
torus is inisnonior , however , for they are
tiot lakes , but beds. The doposite covers
an era of ZIuGIC Luau ioo acres , being a
solid bed ofcrystahizecl suhphato of soda
uibout nine feet thick , suptlied from the
bottoni by springs , wlioso water hold thu
salts iii solution. The water rising to the
surface rapidly evaporates , and the salts
with which it is imjregnuitcd readily crjra-
talizes into the foruti mentioned. Upon
removing any of the material the
water rises from the bottom , fills
the ox'nvntion made , and thio salts
crystahiziiig replace , in a few days , the
unaterial removed. Hence tIm deposit is
practicably inexhaustible , and it now
contains nbout 50.000,000 cubic feet of
chemically pure crystalized sulphate of
soda ready to be utilized. The Union
Pacific is now putting up works by menus
of whiichi it , is Irolsed to convert the
sulphate of sodainto the caustic soda of

ropresotita between $40,000 and $50,000.
Time output of the works now being
erected vili be from twenty-five to fort )
touis of caustic sodui per week , and it will

figures , added to cost. of transportation

reader some idea of the advantage of the
1ti.mtltict over that of foreign manufacture.
The works will conmuienco operation
this fall. The luraneli railroad to the
works will be completed soon so that

These fuits iiimd fiures , condensed
from a detailed review in a recent umutim-
her of the Laruitnie Boomerang. make an
excellent shmowiag of the steady growth

TWO LADS' ADVENTUREI.
At the Lafumyette excursion house this
afternoon while thousands of families
were enjoying , the bicycle tournmmniemmt
and Japanese fireworks , there were two
young nba , or rather boys , atnong the
throng who had forsaken luxuriant Irnimmes ,
influences by a atranco spirit of adven.
Lure. Wearuimg the wimite apron and short
coumt of waiters and serving beer to tIme
thirsty Jeiseymen , wore Harry Owinu
aimd Hanmiltoim Crankahaw , both Sons of
wealthmy aimd highmly esteemed families in
Atlanta , Ga.
There was , indeed , something in the
appearance of time boys which indicated
timat they wore moore or les out of their
element. Their hands were white and
delicate , their skins smooth amid soft , and
thmeir features chmaractcrized by refine-
inent. Time story of Crankshaw is as fol.
low :
"My father and mother know that I
nun here , but Gwinn'a do not know whore
ho is. Ve wore tired of home and its
restraints ; yet neither of us is specii4ly
wild , neither of us drink. We ran
away from Atlanta last spring. When
we get out of mnoumoy we have to work at
anything we can get to do , as you see
now. We have been through alt the
principal citie8 in the south , sometimes
living like princes , at other times waiting
iii saloons. '
Barry Gwinn is said to , be the son of
a woaltlmy clergyman. Ho is about five
feet live iumchues high , of unediunm weight ,
has reddish hair and blue eyes , a fair
compiection , without froc4lev. Hamil-
t.oum Cramikahaw in said to be tIme son of a
business muman of Atlanta worth nearly
half a tiuilhion. Ho is about five feet
uiltie inches higim , of light weight , line
dark hair and eyes amid a anmootim , fair
cuunlmioxioum.
