The deprestion in the R trade has called forth some loud hints from the government te the Rasslan rallwsy companies that they ought seriously to think of Introducing re- duced tariff of freight for corn and flour. Tae inslienable right of womento be on an equality with man in every re- spect, is likely to become a8 serious an issue in Germsny as it Is just mow In Nebraska, A womsns' rights meeting wae held in Berlin last mouth with the view of forming a Womaus' Rights Loague. Twenty-five strong minded fewmsles were present. The lady who presided, explained that the movement was to abolishall anhealtty aud tuconvient srticles of woman's dress, and to replace them by “a Suslistic form of attire for the lower as well as the upperlimbs.” The sup- porters of the movement desired that 10 more should be heard of long skirte and euch fashionable frippery. Thoy wated to wear tiousers, becauselin alone they had & form of dress, worthy of the human race. Ouly ove person spoke in defance of the old costume, on ths ground that flowing robes are more gracefol than tight fitting gar- mente, but her voice was drowned in » storm of opposition, and the autl- petticaat resolution was carriod almost vosnimously. -_ Mavox Boyn's recommendetion for the submission of the public imgrove- ments bond proportion at the earlfest possible day ought to be acted on by the counell at it's next meeting. An ordinance covering sll the points con- "templsted by the law should be passed and the meyor authorized to call the wpecial election within the lim- ited thme required by the law.

In no section of tho comntry has the services' needed more through overkauling than right here in Oma- ha. For yesra this community and the people of this state have been suf- ferlng delsys and inconvenisncy by resson of shameloss meglect aod mismansgement by the men sharged with postal supersision. Tostead of attending to his duties the chief of the rallway mail service has Gevoted most of his ime to junketing excursions and political bumming. His office work has been performed by routs agente ‘dstailed frow nctive service, while the railway postal clerks - over-workad and unable to do 00 10 the service. Two years ago, when the govern- ment engineors were constructing the sham rip-rap on our river front, this paper predicted that this city would, sconet or later, suffer materially from these rip-rap frauds. - The sbaclute worthlessuess of the rip-rap above tho Smelting works has been demonstrats ed to our scrrow . this spring. Congress during ite last session made another appropriation for river im- provement at this point,—$20,000 we do. The crecks which now carry the greater part of our sewage breed ma, and poople who live ghberhood “of these crecks are exposed to this foul Haundreds of children-in South sir. and North Omshs are carried off every yost by malarial we bulieve. There is also about 10, 000 still anexpended from the appro- priation of 1880, If this money is honestly and cconomically expended this spring and summer we may be able to avert further dissstor on our river front, It in evident, however, disease and our whole populatiou is lisble to be ravaged by epidemice that orginate from defeotive drainage. Quite apart from sanitary considera- tions, scwers are sadly meeded by our hotels, stors-houses and facto- ries. Water works camnot effectively be operated without sewers to carry off surplus water, sud street pave- ‘ments should follow sewersge rather thit we can afford no more costly experimenting. The work ought to be placed suder the sopervislon of au experi- enced engineor who undorstands the peculiar course of the Missouri river. Not an hour shoald be lost. The June rise should be suticapated aud every available means employed to prevent another bresk through the than precede It. It will take years to complete our eutire erage eystem, and no time should be loet in pushing these needed improvements as rapidly as onr means will permit. WHAT MAY WB EX+ECT? The proposition to grant euffrage to womsn in Nebraska has enlisted the active sympathies of quite number of respectable people of both sexes. The adrocates of woman sufirage of the femlae sex demand woman suffrage as su inherent right mpon the gronnd #hat they arc in every respect the equals of the male eex, and by nature endowed with alll the qualitios essentisl in the discharge of politloal fanctions and duties. They proclaim that womsn euffrage will purify our politios and Infuss in- £ our political system all the virginal virtues, temperato tastes and patrlotic fidelity of the highest type of woman- hosd. On the other_hand, the men eulisted in this so-oalled reform move- ment are for the most part shallow- pated sentimentalists, who love to bak In the smiles of women, Eccentric genluses who are always carried away by every “‘lsm” or hen- pecked husbsnds who haven't back- bone enovgh to aseert their manhood. Now with due respect to all thess well meaning reformers, wo maintain that woman sufirage will in no way Improve the conditicn of oppressed women, and we shall presently show that tead of purify- Jing our politios woman safirage woutd infase more elements of vice and cor- ruption than our present system is already afilicted wich, Tn another oclumn one of the ad- vooates of woman sufirage propounds the following qoestions: © Will a mother vote for men that will license instientions that will Jaad her sons to Tain? Wil awister vote for a man whoie influcnce Is corruption to brother] Wil a wife vote for mens- ures and laws that will lay tempt tioa in the pathof & husband. Will corrapt politisian with » glass of whisky buy » lady’s yote 1" What a simpletoz our female sul- fragist s in the wioked ways of thin world! Would the woman whose hus- band eells beer and whisky vote for suy man who would raln her hus- baud’s business? Would the woman that goes with her husband and child- ren int> the lager beer garden for rocreatlofl and amasement vote to. have the ‘‘garden” closed! Would the womau that marries the worthless vazabond confined n jail for Arunkenness or worse orimes, hesitate ‘tg vote fof'niy loafer of her acquain tance who prosented her & bottle of porfume! Would a fomale shoplifter and pickpocket vote for a corrupt politician? Would a womsn that sells her body for a dollar vote for the rake who pazonizm her if he wasrunning for office! Would the 25,000 prostitates of Chicago and the 50,000 abandoned women, of New York and the mis- tremes of all the gamb- les and eportinginen gonerally vote the temperauce ticket! Wonld this class comiag in eontact with re. speciable women at the polls purify our politics or would their presence drive respactable women away? ,The diszepatable class of women are 0ot troubled with babies and house- hold cares. They will slways be on hand in fall force to give *heir friends of the other sex a lft. | Thin is mot all. o the cities every | man who wants office wocld seek their river bank. OwiNG to the insuflicient appropria- tions by congress the report of the commissioner of agricaltura for 1879 is as yet not ready for general distri- bution. We arc informed, however, that parties who have forwarded their applications to our congressional dele- gation will recelve the walaable docu- ‘menta st a very craly da; —_— The Chamber of Commerce and the Raliroads. K. X, Times The mercantils intercst is generally regarded as the bulwark of conser- vatism. No body of men is less Tikely o b open to the charge of at- tacking vested lnterests or the legiti- mate rizhts of property or of capital than the chamber of commerce of a creat commercial city. Probably the most venerable body of the kind in the United States is the chamber of commerce of New York, and while it has generally shown s wid o and prigeos- alve apirit _characteristic of the mer- <hants ef this metropolis, it hes aiways malntained the conservatism which is the safeguard of the complicated and interdependent intorests of industry and trade. It is not to be expected than an organization of this kind will be greatly moved by questiors of sentiment, or wil. be called upon to act zeslously on conslcerations of ab:tract justice. * Tts objects are practical, and ithas to do with business affalrs in their actaal operation. 1f it enters upon a crasada, itis likely to be de- fensive rather than sggressive, and animated by the purposs of promoting those grest commercial interests which produce the wealth aud power of the mation. % The part ‘which the New York chamber of commsrce has taken and in otill taking in the agitation of the question of bring the railrond corpor- ations under regulation of law istnde pecalisrly significant by its relation to the mercantile interest. It cannot be actuated by any desiro 10 cripple the railroads, which have become ab- solutely essential to commerce, or any spirit of jealousy of the power or ad- vantages of capital, for it reprerents capitsl and wealth in some of their most impoelng forms. But it stands for the great commursial and indus- trial community which the rail- roade were intended to eerve. Itsees that the cerporations which control the meaus of transportation have it in thelr power to oppress aud Iny nnder coutributicn of ke most despotic kiad the whole business of the coun- try, and that without legal restriction or supervision the only mative strong enough to restrain them in the eelf- interest of the managers, as they can oalculate it. Tt is for their interest that trade sbalifbe active and profits- blo. They cando nothing to inter- fere with this general ecndition by their actions or their arbitrary meth. ods without hurting themselves. But tently with their idea of pro- « commereial prosperity genor. ally, they may for their own profit do a vast deal of injustics in detail and injure persons, places and special in- terests without mercy. They not only may, but they have done 80 in numer- ous well ' authenticated instances, Schemes of groed for the swift e richment of a few men have resulted in imposing an unjust tax upon the commercial community against which it has a right to protest. The chamber of commerce Is doing an important public service in acting as the champion of industry and trade to secure the regalation of the busi- ness of transportation and the preven- tion of its aboses. Its specisl com mittee on railrosd travsportation has done much towurd bringing facts to Jight, evoiing discussions and awsken- ing the public mind tc the need of ro- strictive Tegislation. The need of leg {slation has been amply demonstrated. Every consideration of justice and good poliey demands it,bat the corporations have at thelc eervice the best legal and forensic abllity in the country. They exert cvery influence that money can command, in courts, in legislative bodies, and before the public, to maintain their freedom from control, while the people, whose Intercets are supposed to be reprasented in law- making assemblies, are without or- ganization, and scarcely awake to the pecessities of the sitoation. The chamber of commerse have became the champion of their czuse, and is the source of an inflaency which is making itseif felt more,and more every month. Most of the recent discassion of the railroad question has been drawn cut by its committee. WOMAN'S RIGHTS. Sewarp, Neb., April 11, 1881 To the Editor of Tan Pxs: There is an old adage that there is reason in everything, but I guess the author of that sayicg had never read tho article on woman's rights by Euphrosine Schuyler in Tae Dary Bee of the 9th. T have always been infavor of women’s rights, but not | men’s rights for women; bui sincs reading her article I have changed my opinion. One could readily believe as she states that she has spent half of her life'n a foreign country and from her remarks would sup- pose it had been spent among the Sonth Saa Islanders. As she locates her sojourn in Earope, it must have been in Tarkey or somo other enlightened littls country in the sontheast end of Europo. She saye, “If you waut to find a woman as modest 25 a violet you must go to Earops.” Euphrostne, I fear you are lsboring under a slight mental delusicn, as rezards the reqnirements of thisage. It fsnot violots that the 19th century is sfter, but women with intelligent minds,—noble, true women that can stand up and battle bravely for the right. Mind I say the right,not their rights, and through all not lose one article of their wor— aunhood. Secondly. Shs eays it stunts woman’s constitutlon; they never were mado to reign. How about Queen Victoria and scoros of other queens whose reigns have been marked by peace, pleuty and prosperity, and whose judgment and diplomay have seldom boen equalled In the relgn of the other sex! "hirdly. “If the Lord ever designed women to perform the same daties as men. why did he create two soxcel” How long before the human race would have become extinct had the Lord only created one sex? Yes, the Lord Cetigned womsu to be protect- ed aud nurtured like a delicate plant, and someof these delicate plants take in washing and support eight or nine hildren, and keep a_loving husband in poor whisky and plug tobacco. Bat if said delicate plaut should cast a vote to elect a man to ofice who would refuse to license grog shops, she would be flying di- rectly in the face of Divine Provi- dence's glorious plan of creation. Fourthly. ““Who will take care of the babies when man_and wife go out in publicl” Men and their wives go to churches, balls, lectures, concertsy theatres, aud they go to county fairs, state fairs, world's fairs, and Fourth of July celebrations, and tho baby has lived through it all and done fine- ly; but what is to become of that in- evitable baby while a womsn goes to the polls and votes (a proceeding that would take about as long a8 to buy a paper of pins) 1 Isa question that has got the brillisat iatellect of this en- lightened age at a dead-lock. Fifthly, “A modest wife would ban- ish the thought of keeping up with her husband attending a political lec- tore while a child was slck.” No mother would lesve a sick child. Such reasoning is too silly to attempt to sn- swer. Bt are all the children in the city to be attacked with a spell of slck- nees on the eve of a political lecture! Also “‘a modest wife would banish the thought of going to au election when her ~ cordition was such she should be discrete.” Why under those circumstances, Euphrosine, she would stay away from the polls the same as a man would, if he bad the small.pox. But if one man has the small-pox is that any resson five hun- dred men that haven'tit should not g0 and vote? Sixthly, A woman should lay the tender feclings 1o the hearts of the rising generation; if sho does that she does her share.” Why, certainly, might be qualified to vote upon the ayment of the registry tax of $I Poaavallib nu,;%‘cr of electars ok { to not far from 50,000.

Covoysus, April 1L—Enstern pa- rted a flood of the Platte country. This is sn'error end creates a wrong lmpression of this estimable scction of cur stata. Such, however, would bo an impossibility; as the Platte bottoms have a gradval rise from the first bench to the rolling prairie lands. The swmall strips of low land or Erst bottoms that have been inundated recsived not water fromthe even flywing course of a swollen rlvér. but by ice gorges forming every few miles in the river, water was backed upon the land. Of course ico gorges are sometlmés formed whero streams narrow and confinod within high banke. When one thus formed breaks the rush incl- dent sarrlos largo quantities of ice, bridgos, logs and any other material mct in its coursa down the stream and ont upon the low flat land from which it often removes buildings aud de- stroys hay, grain, stock and other property. Losses of note in the Platte valley have been confined t) county bridges and railroad property. The loss to life aud private property has been very liwited in reslity, and much exagerat- €d lo reports. Many people were scared who were not hurt or even in danger. The cattls are reporting suffering very much. Those provided with any shelter huve ouly straw rcofed sheds most of which are weather worn and leakivg.

Batween Norih Bend and Columbus twenty per cent. of last year's corn remains to be pioked and the fields in which work is not obstructed by snow banke have so deep mud'that teams and wagons can not enter them. The towns have not done the usual amount ot business this win- ter, very littlo of abything having been hauled to market by the farmers since last Christmas. The roads have been impassible half ths winter, and there is yet no sign of improving. The result is that the farmers wlil plant avd sow now and leave the haul- ing of grain and hogs to market till the last of May and Juns, when the bustls and hum will make the count- ers ring and illuminate the faces of collecting agents with a emile once more, Wild geese and ducks are very plenty and gamesters are happy.

A large amount of wintor wheat was sown last fall, and from close observa- tion and from the best reports, nise- tenths of it Is winter killed. A large amount of spring wheat bas been sown and more to be pat in yet. The past has been a very severe winter and a hard one for poor people. There was but little work to be had here and. persons preforred to stay on thefr claims rather than to go away to fihd work, ss it takes money to travel. T know of many that have lived during the winter principally on corn meal and water, and several havo told me that they knew not where the next meal was coming from. Not. withstanding these facts, the papera | say there is no desitation. of our gencrous eitizeus given all thoy can spare. Free transportation has been asked of the railroad, but as yet we have got nosatisfaction. Every presact joiti- ing have had aid but this..

Those who have had the proceeds feom farms sold in the states to fall back on cau stand it well enough, but the man _that had only the team and no money left, after getting here, and some minus the tonm, are the ones that have to stand the battle. Now, these sre the facts, aud it is not going to hurt ¢he credit of the state or the railroads to let it be known. Tmmigration is pouring in every day, and this will pass into his- tory, probably never to_oceur again, More injury has been done the state by the exaguerated storles of the loss of cattle and sheep.

Tae country has had a chockorad carreer. In tho fifth centaty it was taken by the Vandals, and a century later it passed Into the hands of the Grecks, whers it re- mained antil the Mohammedans over- ran it a the seventh contury. Iu the thirteenth century {t achieved its in- dependence. Frauco made an attompt to take it in 1270, but failud. In the sixteenth century, it was made tribul tary to Spain, but shortly afterwards the Turke conquered it. - The Moors, however, enforced the right of electiog their own Bay, but were com- palled to payatributetoTurkey. Since that time, however, its history has not been particularly interesting, cx- cept for the sovero punishment the Tunislavs have received from the Beitish, French and Hollauders for their acts cf pieacy.
