The | Patron is published at Lincoln, and | 1ts editorial corps consists of Profes- | sors Thompson and Augley, of the | State University, Major Pearman, | the well known Otoe county horti- culturist, Hon. A. K. White. a prominent practical farmer of Lan- caster county, and Mr. Painter, its publisher. Starting out with sucha constellation of recognized ability, Jt is safe to predict a very prosper- ous carcer for this enterprise. OxE swallow does not make sum- mer, and the defection of Boss Hesing from the Republican ranks 18 by no means to ba gonstrued into & wholesale stampede of the Ger- ‘mans into the Bourbon camp. Such, at least, is the impression In Tilinois where Hesing is best known. If the Omaha Herald was not so en- thusiastically devoted to the revival of 1mperialism in France, it might have been better able to study the German character nearer home. German Americans as a class are | among the most intelligent of Amer- ican citizens, and they are generally in the habit of doing their own thinking. They never permit any politician to pull them by the nose, snd they know Hesing to be one of the most unscrupulous of political schemers. The fact that he openly boasts of hisintention to send Wash- ington Hesing, his own son, to Con- gress, in place of Coggressman Far- well, makes it sufficiently clear that the old boss has an ax to grind. | PUBLIC IMFROVEMENTS AND THR | CITY FINANCES. | The position of Councilman | Campbell, touching the spplication | of she ordiary municipal tax levy, | toward defraying ‘he expenses in- curred for permanent public im- our charter to what they thought was perfection itself. | from the various points for their re- | but this year it was very qulet, with | look the matter squarely in the face, and act like business men, in- | stead of merely temporizing for the sake of cheap expediency.

Under the old charter a majority of the property own- ers of any street could, b, petition, secure a grade, and the whole expense for such work | was levied upon the properiy adja- cent to tne grade. This method was | not only properjand equitable, but it | also prevented combinations by which all the tax-payers may be | compelled to contribute to the spe- | cial benefit of any ed loeality. | WirH the thermometer at blood | Deat, it ishut natural for the sweat- | ing political sons ef tof] to over- | whelm President Grant, with ap- | plications for the vacant mission to Russia. | AND now St. Louls wants to| know who is to blame for the | pyrotecnic fizzle on the Fourth of July.

It was interesting to hear the visit- ors compare notesas t ey gathered turn. 1 mever saw so many people in such good bealth and spirits, af- ter such a hard round of visiting and sight-seeng. Nearly all were Toud in their praises of our young State, and two or three old men, in whose hearts the fire of enterprise and ambition had burned low, ven- tured the remark that Nebraska was nowhere to be compared to Tllinois. It was amusing to see the withering glances cast upon them by their traveling companions, and the poor fellows found themselves Iu & feeble ‘minority. Nebraska was hot and dry when I leftit, but Mlinois had nothing to boast of; everything here is suffering from excessive heat and drouth,and strange to say, 85 you go through the grrss countless hosts of grass- hoppers rise up before you; not the ! insectef the plains, but yet they are a positive annoyanee. | Earlville has usually been noted for its fourth of July celebrations, | one exception. Two little boys were | the heroes of the day, and they had | a grand time. They et fir. to their | grand-father’s dwelling with their | fire-crackers. It was a fine resi- dence, and as it was very hot and dry it was instantly enveloped in flames and consumed with all the furniture, Quite an expensive 4th | for grandma. provements, is eminently correct. | Under the provisions of our City | Charter, the City Council can-only | levy & tax, which under Sl an economical administration, | T — | will cover the current and | PERSONALITIES. incidents] expenses of our city government. Nelther the spivit, nor the letter of that charter, would war-ant the conclusion that per- | manent improvements, in the shape | of iron bridges, stone culverts, and costly grading, should be paid out | of the general fund. It is seli-evident that the draft upon the City Treasury for such | improvements would soon drain and exhaust it, and cause a repetition of the financial embarrassment which has been experienced during the pastsixmonths, The demaud for public improvements of & perma- | nsat and substantial character is | imperious and Councilman Camp- | belt ves y properly advocated the is- suance of bonds to meet this de- | ‘mand. The most feasible, as well as the | most economical, plan for meeting | this demand would be to issue a | low-rate, long-time bond. Every- | body will admit that it is much | easier for the taxpayers of Omaha to pay the interest on such an indebtedness than *o be com- pelled to pay the principal. Au | expenditure of $20,000, or $25,000, . for substantial public improvements | daring the present season would, we apprebend, meet the approval of a great majority of our citizens. In fuet, we have very little doubt that the bond question, submitted with | the proper explanations, would carry by an overwhelming vote. The interest on $25,000 at 8 por went would oniy requige’ an addi- tional tax os $2,000 ‘annum, a ‘mere bagatelle with the | henefits to v therefrom. inaugurated a Another excursion leaves Plano, 1llincis. for Nebraska, the 14th of | thismonth.

Immigration and Crops. |Correspondence of Tix BEE.) LixcoLy, July 7, 1874. EDITOR OMAHA BEE : Having spent the last month in Saline, Lancaster and Seward | counties, I find the improvements | have been more rapid than ever before; many new farms bave been opened, snd more breaking done than the three previous years. Railroad lanas, which have been plenty, is now searce, little remains ‘o be disposed of. Immigration has been continually pouring in, and generally of a better class, finaucially, who are able to improve their farms, with all the modern comtorts of a “estern life. Mosre acres of wheat have been putin this year than ever before; it and but | i thie main erop for the farmers,and | ‘Woman’s horn is exalted at Flint | more time and interest is devoted to | months, will draw interest city, Instead of | player, holders on each | erwise masc Mich., by s female coruet | collecting goud seed and sowing it; | [tiepavment. e | many new experiments have been ,m.d}.' which will doubtless prove | profitable. | The bottom lands will not prove 50 successful this year, owing to the Deavy rains in May,which drowned out the wheat and scalded it, hence making it very uneven, and in | many places a failure. The up or table lands will prove most successful, as the ground soon dried out. and the wheat was more even,and had a chance to grow tall- | er and fill much better. | Having oceasion to examine many flelds of wheat, of the several kinds | planted in Nebraska, I will give a brief statement of increase of yield. On examining closely I found one graiu to produce from five to fifteen talks, one I noticed with twenty one, one twenty-seven, and one thirty-one, all with average Leads, and the average shock would cou- | tain about thirty grains. The best wheat I have scen this season was | south of Pleasant Hill, Saline county, and had only one bushel to | the acre, The stalks were large, even and good heads. TItisa mis- | taken ideato putso much small grain to the acre, it can be too thick like corn, and when it is the grain will not be so plump, and with such large heads. The Lest and most sugcessfu) farmers prepare their soil well, snd drill their wheat; it will do better to plant deep. 3 There will not be an average erop of ogts this year. The fore part of the season was toa wet, and then the continued dry weather will cut short the orop, which is very short | and scalded. Uplands produced bet- | ter for all kinds of grain. The corn crop Is a good aver- age for the first of July, and gen- | erally looks well. On the table | langs, it s mueh cleancr, and ap- pears more thrifty, as it has been | | better cultivated. During the wet | | season, the low lands or levei lands | could mot be plowed, hence the weeds got & good start, and as | | many farmers are very greedy, they will undertake to do more than they are able, hence neglect the crops | when they need attention. The crop of potatoes planted is wmmense, Which has been troupled much with bugs and in many places they have been ruined. Otherwise, | if seasonable, the crop will be im- mense, i ‘There has not been a time in the E;st tour years when eorn and oats ve been as scarce as At present. | Very few farmers have any, and | those who have none are not able to | buy.

As many | as 1,300,000 bricks are being used in | constructing the walls, which will be surmounted by an iron roof. The | length of the wharf is 500 feet, and | breadth #50 feet. ‘The depth of ti water alongside being 23 feet at low tide, will allow the largest vessels to | approach without difficulty.

President Grant might have made a much worse appointment than than that of ex-Governor Jewell, of | Connecticut, to be Postmaster Gen- | eral.
