Her wheep ranges in the central and west- ern portions of the state cannot be ex- eclled. There is a constant demand for the finer arades of wool in eastern mackets, During the last fiscal year 39,000,000 poands of foreign wool ‘eartern manufactur- ers to supply their looms. Every pound of this should have been pro- duced on American sheep ranges. 4 large extension of sheep husbandry in thewest, aud particularly in Nebraska, is iu the highest degree desirable. The profits are heavy snd returns on the original investmeat rapid. Ouc farm- ers should pay more attention to sheep Taising. —_— THe organ of the Nebrasks bour- bons has suddenly discovered a aym pathetic spot in its composition for the poor down-trodden negro. According to the Herald “no otber beings on the earth in human form could be treated s thése nogroes are treated in a freo country, without resentment and re- wolt, sud no better proof is wanted of their total ineapacity for being inde- pendent freemen, in » free country, than is furnished in the fact of their political bondage, unless it be found in their utter inabilitylto followany in- dustrial pursuit that calls for sus- tained and systematic lsbor.” To what section of our “‘free country,” does the Omaha Herald refer. Does it refer to the bulldozed negro down in Mississippl or his disfranchised brother in South Carolina and Ala- bams. Why hasn't this sympathy for the oppressed negro been heard from beforel—at the time of the Hamburg massacre, or, more lately, at the fime of the outrage at MoGhees' switch, If the Herald simply refers to the downtrodden megro of Omaha, we wait to know where, when snd by whom! Wherein has the negro been oppressed, iusulied or subject- el to injury or deprived of any right he hes as a citizen.

Omahs has every reason to be proud of the manner in which her citizens have fulfilled their part in the exhibi- tion. The state at large is equally to e congratulated over the fine showing which Nebraska has made of her agri- cultural, horticultural and stock inter- ests. The attendance hae been very gratifying; the weather, takemr as 8 whole, has been good; the racing hes been the bestaeen in the state. Both exhibitors and visitors feel satisfied, and the management have resped a substantial pecunisry success as the result of their untiring labors. When the fair was first transferred to our city many of our merchants doubted the practicability of making it & success financially. Others were inclined to question the advantages which would accrue to themsslves es exhibitors. Both of these classes have been most agreeably disappuint- ed. The merchants, manufacturers and mechanics of Omaha came nobly to the front and filled every portion of space allotted them to overflowing. Every class was admirably represent- ed. Omaba's exhibit alone would have made a fine The state outside of Omaha was in no way behind the city. Both com- bined made euch a fattering showing, that crowds of Nebraskans were drawn to the grounds, and the finan- cial success of the state fair was sured before the week was half com- pleted. Those who questioned the personal advantage of exhibiting their goods were soon undeccived. Fally fifty thousand visitors crowded the grounds and buildings during the progress of the fair. The value of the advertis- ing thus given to their goods and weres cannot be estimated. Thous- ands of those who were present at the fair as visitors will in the near future be purchasers of the exhibits, which they eaw for the first time. The re- turn to exhibitors in dollars and cents will doubtless be a hundred fold, and Omaha merchants will have no reason to reget their wisdom in contributing in money and exhibits to The lesson of the fair is already learned by many of our most promi- nent business men. Omahs must have » permanent exhibition. Such aa ex- hibition the fair just concluded hes shown Omsha is 2mply able to sup- port. There will be no lack of means to carry it out, of exhibitors to fill all the floor epacs, of to make it financial success. Our ravidly growing city demands such abazasrin which to display her wonderful industrial and commercial advancement. Our merchants need this annusl opportunity to display their wares in friendly competition, A permanent exhibition of the resources of the metropolis of Nebraska would be worth millions of doliars to the #tate in the advertisement which it would give to sirangera of the posti- ilities in store for w tal. Let us byall means have a per- manent exhibi ucoess. visitors a Mz. Ricnarp Graxt Write is ex- pressing the opinions of many eastern parents in his srraignment of the pub- lic schools of New York City. He complains that the education afforded to the children of mechanics and la- borers is in most cases entirely im- practicable when their future callings are taken into consideration, and in- sists that in nine casos out of ten, in- stead of beinga help, the superficial instruction given at the New York grammar schools ie a hindrance totheir future advancement. Mr. Grant is notedly an extremist, yet there an undonbted basis of fact underlying his educationational arti- cles. Much of the free education of day is useless, and neglects thorough- nets in the elementary and practical branches for an undigestsd mass of supsrficial knowiedge of subjects which in the majority of instances can never be practioslly applied by the scholare in after life. The great object of our free school system is to diffuse that knowledgo awong the rising gen. eration which will fit them to become good, useful and enlightened citizens, which will prepare them to take their purt in winning their own way in life, in rearing and supporting their fami- lies without cost to the state and thus in diminishing pauperism and crime in the community. A sound, thorough and practical education such as all classes, poor and rich require, should be furnished in the public schools, No one class should be priviloged bey- ond another. The professions have their own schools in which strictly professional men are trained. Their functions shoald not bo nsurped by achools supported by the state. Nor should the higher education, from which a majority of our people by their ciroumstances are excladed, bo included in the course of instraction given iz our public schools, and the masses be taxed to maintsin teachers and studies from which the majority fail to derive any bemefit. While we do not agree with Mr. White in his wholesale denunciation of the American free achool system, there is undoubtedly ample room for improve- ment. Such improvement in educa- tional methods we believe is constant- ly taking place. Experience, the greateat of all teachers, is impressing its wholesome lessons on our educators and is yearly exposing the mistakes and rectifying the errors which neces- +arily attend the onward march of the free schools in the United States. — New Jensey has s mammoth white elephant on its hands in the case of the Stevens battery, which is adver- tised tobe sold on Sept. 27¢h, by the master in chancery. In 1843 Robert Stevens, s Hobaken millionaire, con- ceived the, ides of constracting a mamoth war vessel, capable of re ing every attack, and he began work on the steam battery. After his death, his brother, Edwin Stevens, cortinued labor on it, and when he died he bequesthed $1,500,000 to complete it. Less than §100,000 of | ‘that they were destroyed by the Es- ehowing. |" yeaps, In an unfiniched stats, Edwin Stevens st his desth willed the battery o the state of New Jersey, and his heirs have since brought suit to recover the property. The courtsof New Jersey having refused to enderse their claim the battery is now to be sold. Uver 2,500,000 have already bean expend- ed on its construction and the remt of the property on which it stands is worth $25,000 a year. The United States govern- ment would not sllow its sale in time of war in foreign states, and now in time of peace it will probably only Dring a tithe of its cost of construction.

A BUILDING IN CHEYENNE WHICH HA WALLS OF GOLD. Cheyenne Lesder. There is & certain brick building in Oheyenne, not a thousand miles from The Leader offics, which is sl- most worth its welght in gold.” The ‘bricks in its walls are at least impreg- nsted with the precious metal to a valnsble extent. The discovery was. made accidentaily by a gentleman who has 2n offios near by, He fre- auently noticed shining yellow parti- cles in the bricks, and, imsgining that the calors were gold, he took out a brick from the wal for the purpose of ascertaining the facts. This brick he first pulverized and then pnned ont the colors. He conld not get rid of all the dirt, and concluded to rend theretiduum to an sseaver in Den- ver. Inafewdays the assay certifl cate arrived, and showed that there was 38 cents worth of gold in the brick. The gantleman then took out two other bricks in different parta of the hnilding and pulvarized snd pan- ned them as he did the first. The same a-saver gave his certificate as follaws: Sampla No, 1, gold, 47 cents; samp'e No. 2, gold, 24 conts. With remarkahle sedfdbyy the gen; tleman proceeded tn learn whenos came tha bricks. After considerable inquiry it was learned that the bricks were mad> in a yard that was former- ly situsted on Crow cresk, nesr Chey- enne. but which is now obliterated, Further investigation, smong the old- est tesidents, divoleed the fact that placer mining was at onc time arcied on along Orow creek, bit the minefs thooght that the pay wasn't big enough, and they therefore abandoned their claims. Tt was near these claims that the brickyard, mentioned above, was_started, and that explains how gold dust got into the bricks, All the facts in tonnection with the new disouvery of gold are now known to the genileman who learned the above detiil=d facts. Beioga man of modarate means ho cannot purchase the building for cash; and the owner will_not sell ctherwise. He has of- fered to part down and the balance in six months,butthe ownet eaya ‘‘cash.” Henco the genjlemanisina quan- dary. He does not care tolet any moneyed men into ihe secret, for fear he will lose the chance of wetting the the building. His calculation isto buy the sxme,and tear it down for the purp-se of tunning the bricks throngh agold mill. He has overaged the value of the brickyst 80 cents each, aud, the building z»emg ety large, he finds that at that rate he can afford to reze the structure, get cut the gold, put up a new building, and haves good round sum ofmoney left. Hence he i3 in a fever of speculation and is worrying himself sick over the mat- tar. ~ He still retaina the secret, and has told it to but person, his counsel and that being the writer, accounts for the strange discovery being given to the world, with permission only the names and locations remaining se- oret.
