In every move towards & more thorough sdministra- tion and improved methods of prima- ry instruction, Superintendent Lane will have the active sad unqualified support of our citizens. Goverxor Taso, of Denver, bas purchased eight lots in the heart of the clty ata cost of $100,000, which he proposes to donate to the govern- ment in consideration of the erection of & postoffice building at that point. Other wealthy and influential citizens stand resdy to farnish ocapital for building end manufsctaring purposes to the amount of overs million dol- lars. If Omsha’s wealthy citizens, tnstead of Jocking ap their fortunes in baok vaults and real estate, would follow the example of & few of our public spirited merchants of moderate means, the present year would open an era of development which would place our city on a par with any of her western sisters, THE gas question is to be made an fasue in the spring elections at Tole- do. Tt appears that there is & wide- sproad foeling in the community that the price of gas should be lowered, and the man who asks the suffcages of his fellow citizons for the position of mayor is expected to define clearly his sentiments on this important question. —And yet Toledo pays noarly $2.00 a thozsand less for gas Herald knows that It is stating & falsehood when it says: “Now, the railroads recoguize the narrowness of the margin between the price of a murketed commodity and the cost of prodaction. Their tarift s rogulated accordingly.” The tariffa of railroads, according to thelr confessions, sre regulated solely on the basis of what “the traffo will bear,” or, In other words, just how much oan be charged without making it totally nuprofitable for producers to T — Tax legislature of Kaneas is about to take measures to regulato the rail- roads of the state. A resolution has been introduced requesting tho secre- tarios of all the roads doing business in Kansas to furnish & verited state- ment of tariff rates for freight and passenger business from all points where the roads enter the state, or from the starting polnt in the state to all points on the line. Another bill has been introduced in the house es- tablishing & maximum rate of freight and fares, prohibiting in charges or facilities, and for the ap- pointment of a state commissioner of railroads, and to do away with irre- aponsible railroad compa: Tur basis upon which congress will be asked to regulate or take con- trol of the telegrrph lines of the wountry is precisely the same as that upon which the right to regulste the railroads I granted under the con- stitutlon. The power to regulate commeroe among the states gives to the national flegislatare the right to £ix the rates cbarged by the corpora- tions for transmitting telegrams in order to prevent discriminstion and extortion and its power to establish post offices and post rosds. Congress. ‘may alsoconstruct and operate lines of its own, should 1t be deemed advisable mot to purchase the property of the consolidated companice. The best and the safest plan would comtemplate complete government control of the telegraph. The West. orn Unlon owns all the telegraphlc improvements of any value which have been made within the last quarter of a century. By the extension of their present aystem of lines, cheap tele- geaphic communication could be brought within the reach of all. So far as the enormons capitalization of the compauy Is concerned, the govern- ment will not be obliged to pay more than » ressonsble sum for the pur- chase of the property. The fictitiors could easily be separated by appraise- ment from the real capital and the stockholders would receive sufficient sotually invested A Big Bteal. .n;.:-wm matter of our state th past fow yoars has beon & big stesl o — A California young mau of 26 “has recently varrieds wider of THE SENSUS COMPLETED. The euperintendent of the cen- sue has completed his work of enumerstion and places the total population of the United States on the 1st of June last at 50,152,669 inbabitants. Our population in 1870 was 38,558,371, We have, therefore, gained in ten years since then 11,- 594,188 inhabitants. This is an io- crease nearly as grest as the whole populstion fifty years ago. Compared with the great nations of Europe, the United States show a greater populstion than sny, except Rassia, which contains over 72,000, 000 of inhabitants. Against our 50,- 152,669, Germany shows 42,727,360; Austria-Hungary, 37,331,430; France, 36,905,789; Great Britian and Ire land, 34,160,000; Italy, 27,769,47 Spain, 16,526,511 The total popul tion of Europe is given by the “Almanach de Gotha” as 311,763,713, Hence we have even now only about one-sixth as many inhabltants, though our area and that of Europeas awhole are nearly equal. The eastern states during the past decade have incressed only 18 per cent., while the western and southern divisions are credited with & gain of 34 per cent. over the census of 1870, It is now conceded that the appar- ent large incresse in the southern states Is due to the fact that this cen- sus was taken there with more regard to exactness than any preceding one, while that of 1870 was done In & elovenly and careless manner, not reashing a large mass of the popula- tion. There is but one city In the United States or on the American con- tinent that contaius over one million populstion—New York. Thers are three othors that contain over half a million; three others above 300,000; three others above 200,000, and ten others above 100,000.

With two exceptions no city in the United can boast of so great a per centage of increase!n pop- ulation, manufactares or taxable wealth, What the aext decade will bring to our people dopends aione upon the enterprise, public spirit and unit- ed efforta of its people. Tae published statistics of Oregon show thatitsares 895,274 milos, twelve times grester than that of Massachu setiaand twice the size of New York. Laborlog under heavy disadvantages it progress has still been marked. The torritorial governmont waa pat in opo- ration in 1849 and ten years later Oregon joined the sisterhood of states. To 1850t had but 13,204 nhabitants Ta 1860 this number had increased to 52,465, 1870 to 90,933, and ia 1880 t0176,704. This growth, though rap- id fn Itself, must be regarded s com- paratively slow. Since the firat settler went to the Pacific Northwest more than forty yoars have elapsed. In much shorter time, as s wall known, the most populoms com- monwealths have sprang up in other parts of the county. The distance ot Oregon and Wash- Ington from railroad communication, and their isolation from the great coutees of populstion, aro chiefly re- sponsible for their slow growth. If this portion of the Union, with ita ad- mirable climate, rich soil, and varied capabilities, had boen as accessible sx Kaness, Nebraska and Towa, it is only reasonable to believe that their popu- lation, instead of being less than three hundred thousand, would now be counted by millions Within a few months the Northern Facific road will open up & direct lino of commu- nication with the east, and put an end to the isolation which has hitherto been the chief drawback to this por- tlon of the Union. When this is done we may confidently expect to see Ozegon taking her place beside the ‘most populous states in the west. CONNUBIAL SIPS. A sixtyyoar-cld Dubuquer has taken unto himself a wife of fifteen. A. J. Hemstreet and Delilah Ste: art were married in Indlanapolis & fow days ago. He is 78 years old snd o is 42. Some time in February, Litts, the ima donoa, will wed Harry L. leveland, the tenor of the Slayton ‘conoert company. The coming bride of Governor- elect Plaisted, of Maine, is Miss Ma- bel Hill, of Exeter, in ths: state, She fs 20 years old, while Mr. Plais- tod in 52 years old. J. W. Kling, of Ringgoid county, Tilinots, has sued Miss Bello Thorpe for bresch of promise of marriage, asking for $31 for money sdvanced and $2000 for damaged affections. One of the Austrian Prince Ru- dolph's wedding gifts is to be the mar- riage ring of Maria Theresa. It is to be presented to him by the cloister of St. Elizabeth, at Klageufurt to which it wan bequeathed by the great em- press’ daughter, the Archduchess Maria Ana. On the 5th Jacob Dhabalt cbtained » disoree from his wife in the circuit court st Indianols. Towa. Lydia O. Banks secured a divorce immedistely afterwards from her husband.

Camilla Urso hes been tiddling in Atlanta. The sudience liked Urso she was obliged to repeat. Miss Clara Morrls is renewing her former triomphs in Miss Multon at the Unlon Square matinee. Gounod’s ““Tribut de Zamora” will probably be ready for production at 50 | the Grand Opers, Parls, in February.

Modjeska is likely to ap- in ‘“La Priocess Gaorges,” a play which was forbidden in London not so very long ago. Mansger Mapleson's London seat will begin April 30, and Mme Nileson will undoubtedly be the prima donna. Mr. Maas, late of Carl Rossa's com- pany, has been engaged. Edwin Booth is said to possess a portrait of his first wife, which is kept entwined with flowers by his present wife, and under it is written, “From Mary on earth to Mary in heaven.” The present Mrs. Booth is the daugh- ter of Mr. J.

Seotch plaid hosiery is -atylish for children. New tablecloths and napkina are In bright colors. Jacqueminot roses are still searco and expentive. The balayeuse is faller and more conspicuous this season. The princess style of dress I still preferred for evening dress New fichus are very large, and aro worn with tho immense corsaga bow. Very fine linen handkerchiefs have the initial in hematitch In one corner. New ornaments for the hair are silver fans, arrows, daggers and pen- dants. - The colored Sevres glass Is used for toilet srticles and for small pieces on dinner tsbles. White plush hoods, bordered with awan's down, are worn by Iadies when sleighing on the park. Vermont women can now hold the offico of town clerk, if they can secure enough votes to elect "em. Handsome fichan for street wear are of the new striped muil, scol- loped and embrotdered on the edge. Brunettes aro fashionsble this season. Tho girl who is so recklessly unfortunate as to insist on remaining a blonde might as well b out of the world. Sets comprising fichu, handkerchlef and eoarf are of silk mull, with ap- plique of flowers in natural colors, cat from foulard and chain-stitched with fine gold thread. Pretty collars are made of fine em- broidered handkerchiefs, two corners of which form the turn over collar, and the other two aro knotted to form the bow on the throat. Philadelphia girls are quick tr lers. Oneof them who went sleig] ing the other night made twelve miles in one lap.—Philadelphia Ohronicle. It was the go-as-you-please style. Some of the New York girls must look ike small hussars in their red jacketa braided with gold. Collar, cuffs and jackets fairly glitter with metal, and the effect is decidedly military. Lockets of rich, heavy s plain gold or enamel, with ini motto engraved in pearls or diamonds, are worn, and there are brooches in lighter atyle for fastening on the lace or tulle bows now g0 fashionablo in the way of cravats. Gold-dusted and powdered lecks appearedin American ball-rooms; d towering puffs and carls, adorned with glittering_stars, crescents and bandesux of brilliants or jets, effectu- ally complote the antique styles of dress now the rage in Paris. Crinoline, when worn at all, is very small. The bustle, however, contin- 108 in favor. Those made of fine steel and lace net or pique are most desira- ble, as they are light, and really form a support for the skirts worn. For wearing with long trained ovening dresses thay sro an absoluto necessity. A correspondent tells a story about a Baltimoregirl whosomother trans- ferred her from a brunette to & blonde In order to marry herto a young man, only to see her die within a year after her wedding, of an erup- tion brought on by tho substances used in coloring her hair. *Unhappily married!

An exchange notes that there are 15,000 families in Al without s Bible. Maybe it's best they should be eo. Col. Ingersoll has a Bible and has read it carefully. See the result. Few. O few aro the ministers Who have girt on the gospel sword, That reckon a call to s smaller church And 2 call from the Lord. ‘We've noticedthis fact quite often, With fee ing of keenest pain, And we ask just now for some preacher To please arise and explain. The best church-goers of Yuba are addicted to the habit of walking out of the sacred edifice while services are progressing; and the way a local paper rofers to the matter Intimates that the ““worst” church-goes there play poker during the sermon, and call “keno” instead of “‘amen.” A man in British Columbia recent- Iy substituted a greasy looking copy of “Gulliver's Travels” for the Bible in one of the provincial courts, and many witnesses were sworn upon it before its character was discovered. A Jow opened the book to swear up- on the Old.Testament part, when a Indicrous engraving _revealed the trick. Tt is thought that the substi- tution may give rise to some nice points as to the legality of the testi- mony. When Col. Tom Scott and his party were in Galveston they were standing on the pavement in front of the Cot- ton Exchange, when a gentleman on the opposite side of the stroot asked a friend who they were. The friend didn't know, but one of the party having a white cravat, he jumped at & rash conclusion, saying: *‘They are preachers.” “What are they doing herel” “Oh, they meet regularly onos a year to swap sermons,” said the poorly-informpd drieffd, . ___, BEDUOCATIONAL. % There_are 66,000 schools and col- MORE POPULA Reliable” REMEMBER That Every REAL Singer Sewing Ma- chine has this Trade Mark cast into the Iron Stand and em- bedded in the Arm of the Machine, Jas, K, Ish. leges 1n India, with an attendance of 1,900,000 boys and girls.

The Ragged School Union, of Lon- don, England, expends about $130,- 000 a yesr in endeavoring to elovate the lowest and poorest classes. It has 30,500 children in Sunday schools, 6489 in day schools and 9267 in night schools, It maintains seventy-five ragged churches, manages eighty-two lending libraries and seventy-five penny banks, besides superintending mothers’ meetings, men’s clubs, bands of hope and a variety of children’s meetings. The annual reports of the president and treasurer of Harvard college for the year ending Sept. 30, 1880, show that the institution is in its usual flourishing condition. The number of students from outside New Eng- land has increased, except in the law school, where the extension of the time required for a degree and the raising of the examinations have temporarily reduced the number. The divinity echool has been further en- dowed with $140,000, and the medical school is doing well and is to have a new building. At the recentmeeting of the Massa- chusetts teachers it was apparently agreed that not enoogh attention was given to the study of history in Am- erlcan school In Worcester, how- ever, the study has recently beon ta- ken up with great fervor—teachers, pupils and the librarian of the public library workiog in harmony. Mr. ‘Walton, state agent of the board of education, declared that in teaching arithmetic the elementary and the scientific should be kept separate, and children thoroughly taught first tho fundamental facts. r. Walton might have added that arithmetic can hardly be taught successfully by any one who has not a positive gift for it. The mechanical hammering of certain mysteriously worded rules and com- Dbinati f numbers into the brain of the small boy is not tesching arithmetic. Thero is too much say- ing of “That is so” by teachers, and not enough clear and_intelligent ex- gllnlkian of “Why it is so.” Mr. Jomins, of Worcester, advocates dis- pensing with obsolete tables of cloth- ‘measure.—[New York Tribuno.
