Pierce is in Charge of the Circu- ation of THE DAILY BEE. Wirniy five years Omaha will be a railroad centor of the first magnitude. Faming and emigration have told on Ireland, Her population is over 3,000,000 less than forty years ago. GraIx elevators, according to the president of the Wabash, might bo ap- propriately named “Humphries' spo- cifics.” SeNATOR JoNES declares that should Arthur become president, there will be no change in the policy of the ex- ecutive. Tue quarrel of the physicians over the president was a disgraceful inci- dent at Washington which might well have been omitted, i Waex the Milwaukee road makes Omaha 1ts teminus and the river is bridged by a rival line ‘‘the robbers toll gate” will bo a thing of the past. Tae Troy Times says thatin Chicago it is fashionable to be married early in the morning. This gives the bride a chance to get a divorce before night. ‘VERMONT is about tosuffer from a woman suffrage convention. Ver- mont has Nebraska's cordial sympa- thy with her over the approaching trial, — Nor many years back the Omaha Herald asserted that Omaha was no place for grain elevators and never would be. Now that far-sighted sheet tells us that there is room here MAN AND WOMAN. And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the Ileum: light to rule the night.—Genesis, , xvi, These great lights known as the sun and the moon each revolve in their own orbit. Both are essential to our planetary system but the lesser derives its radiance from the greater light. ing to behold but it never can sup- plant the golden sun in its functions. It is thus with man and woman. Both are the works of a wise Creator——each to rule in their proper sphero, Woman is feminine in spirit as well asin body. Man is masculine in in- tellect as well as in form. They are different yet complementary. Woman is pre-eminently affectionate and emo- tional. Man is superior in clearness of theught and coolness of judgment. Both are essential, and no humanity could exint without both being pres- ent. Wifehood, motherhood, the es- Tho silvery moon is enchant- tablishment, maintenance and devel- opment of home, aro woman's special priviloge. Man, being physically the stronger, is the natural protector and guardian for a dozen grain elevators, with a ca- pacity of half amillion bushels. The same paper tells us that barges will play an important part during six months of the year in transporting grain down the Mississippi, but barges can never be floated down the Missouri river. What, never? Supnose congress votes the necessary means for removing the snags and other obstructions in the Missouri next winter, what is to hinder barges from carrying surplus grain down the Missouri five years hence. This idea, that the three thousand miles of waterway from Fort Benton down to St. Louis can never be utilized by barge navigation, issimply preposter- ous, —— Tur comet still continues to aston- ish the astronomers and the public. Prof, Draper has discovered carbon in the composition of the eccentric vis- itor, an element which the spectrum has hitherto refused to reveal in any other planetary body. The announce- ment is now made that the comet was overtaken by an accident on the eve- ning of the 6th, and dividing into two parts is doveloping a new tail. This statement may bo taken with a grain of allowance when the report of a San Francisco astronomer is consid- ered. According to that observor two comets in close proximity are adorning the heavens, and that it is the companion comet which was scen by eastorn astronomers and which de- luded them into believing that the great and original comet has been aplitting into sections. You could not do better than to hire such a man as Rosewator to “take the stump” with you in joint debate on this question. It would be a good idea for you to offer premiums for such opoonents. —{General Esta- brook before the Woman's Rights Con- wenbion, You could not do better than to bire such a manly man as General Estabrook to “‘take the stump” with you as an expounder of woman's rights. It would be a good idea for you to have the political equality of the sexes championed by a burly two hundred pound six-footer, who, not many years ago, within this metropo- lis of Nebrasks, pounded and knocked @own » woman not half his size, be- standing, and is apt to leave » lasting #nprossiou on the individual that is suddenly brougt te o leyel. of woman and the provider for his family, As the head of the family and the defender of his fireside and his country, man by his inherent force has exercised political power for which women aro by physical functions un- fitted. The deluded would-be-reformers that clamor for the political equality of the sexes, and demand the privilege of voting at political elections for women, seem to forget that political rights carry with them political dutics. The right to vote carries with it the duty to serve on juries, to hold office and take up arms in defense of the country. Women, by their peculiar functional disabilitioes, are disqualified by nature from serving on juries. They are subject to frequent nervous derangements, that totally unfit them from exercising the dispassionate and cool deliberation that is required in the jury box—in cases involving lib- erty, or even life. Married women charged with the cares of family could not conveniently discharge their du- ties, and would very often be unable to exercise the right of suffrage if it were granted them. Even the most masculine women do not pretend that they would submit to military service; and yet all gov- ernments necessarily rest upon bay- onets. What would this government amount to it it were not able to put down riots and rebellions, and defend itself by force of arms against foreign invasion7 What would American cit- izonship amount to if the republic could not punish outrages upon Amer- ican citizens wherever and by whom- soever committed? It is to manhood, ready at all times to lprinqm arms in defense of the na- tional flag, that the republic looks as the balwark of freedom and the guar- dian of liberty—and it is not only just, but absolutely necessary that man should exercise sovereign politi- cal powers and responsibilities, The ballot box must be in the same hands that carry the cartridge box. But the fact that our laws discriminate in favor of man by depriving women of the elective franchise does in no way prevent hor from the pursuit of happiness. A true woman will feel just as happy and contented with her father, brother and husband in charge of the ballot box as if she hadahandin it herself, It is the height of presump- tion for women to assert that they cannot trust this government in the hands of fathers, brothers and hus- bands who have made this republic respocted and feared by all the na- tions of thoearth. Men have founded the free wstitutions of Amer- icn. Men have established this ropublic by the force of arms, and thoy have prescrved it for future gen- erations, by fighting for the Union. All the talk about the consent of the governed is bosh. The confeder- ates never gave consent to the aboli- tion of slavery, or the perpotuation of the Union, but they were compelled to consent when their armies surren- dered, The southern women never have given their consent and they probably never will—but they are not likely to set up a govern- ment of their own until they are able to ficht down the loyal men of this coutry, The great mass of men and womon will continue in their natural relations to each other and those who seok to subvert tho existing order might as well undertake to dispense with tho sun and lot the moon take it place. ——— A GOOD INDICATION. One of the best indications of the general prosperity of Nebraska is the universal contentment of new settlers and the small number of departures from claims to other states and terri- toriea. Our farmers have never been better satisfiod with the resources of the state than at present, and are too buaily engaged o harvesting and pre- paring to harvest bounteous crops to pay much attention to delualve storios of riches lands and botter times in other sections of the country. Every portion of the state sends its 'mdolehulovw\hloodm, and pearly every town and ite basts & eosvesponding growid village §iah f 14 did not gives Indications of & substantial im- ghwle & provement and growth, which has for, improvement inthesurrounding farms, The chronic grumbler scems to have retired to the background, and gives way to other more industrious and therefore more successful and content- ed citizons, Nebraska farmers are the backbone of the commonwealth. With their succoss is bound up the prosperity of every enterprise and industry in state, Their misfortunes mean stag- nant towns, depressed business inter- ests, and unemploved labor. Every cheering report from our worthy agri- culturists is good news to every mer- chant, mechanic and laborer in the state. Tt is therefore a genuine satis- faction to learn that a prosperous sea- son for our farmers seems assured in every section of the state, Southern Nebraska will retain her reputation for fertilo soil, intelligent agriculturists and splendid crops. Along the valley of the Re- publican nothing but cheering indications of a good harvost is heard. Northern Nebraska will astonish even her friends, if we mistake not, at the close of this season’s harvest, and un- occupied claims will be as scarce on her fertile valleys next year as they are in the valleys of the Blue and Ne- maha, Universal contentment and universal prosperity go hand in hand, and Nebraska at present can boast of both. Tae publishers of Scribner's Month- ly announce soveral important addi- tions to the magazine. Richard Grant White, who has written upon “Words and Their Uses,” the uses covering pretty much every use that words can be put to, is going to write of ymusic, upon which he has been more or less an authority for ycars. He is an amateur performer of some note. The Seribner folks have done a great deal for the fine arts and they will be valuable in supplementing Theodore Thomas on Doctor Dam- rosch. Ir has been said that Wall street is heartless. That little subscription of $250,000 raised by New York morchants and bankers for Mrs. Gar- field gives the Lie to the assertion. It was the act of nature’s own noblemen and America can well afford to point to it with pride, Mr. Gourp has contributed $5,000 to the presidential fund which will be given by New York merchants to Mrs. Garfield. This charity of the rail- road king will be entered on the cred- it side of his moral ledger. OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. The German-Chinese commercial treaty signed at Peking In March last, is now being considered by the Ger- man Bundersrath, 1t is a revision of the treaty of 1861 and , exceedingly favorable to Germany. {n 1861 there were in China 15,670 coasting and outward bound vessels with a capacity of 6,900,000 tons; of these 8276 were English, 8692 American and 2248 German. But in 1879, when the ar- rivals and sailings of vessels in China were 21,490 (14,000,000 tons) there were only 1907 German against 10,609 English ships; America, with 31 vessels, having fallen far in the rear. By the provisions of the new treaty soveral new Chinese ports and rivers are opened to German trade. Tonnage dues are diminished, in 8o far as the tonnago which hitherto had to be paid for every four months; henceforth is to be paid only twice a year. China agrees to an improved lighting of the Chincso coasts and riyers, and the re- moval of all obstacles to shipping, no tonnage dues to be paid by German vessels entering a port for repairs, freedom from import dues for mate- rials of vessols repairing, and free- dom from import dues of raw ma- terials, machinery and tools used tor German docks, the erection of freo (bonded) warehouses, reduction in the export dutics on Chinese coals. It also grants permission to foreigners to work the Chinese coal mines, and promisesan effactiye protection against piracy oa the coasts of China, and protection of the lives and property of Goerman subjects in the interior of the Chinese empire. The treaty is s striking evidence] of the high esti- mation in which the German empire is held by the Celestial empire. The applications of electrio light scoms to bo numberless. Experi- ments in the applications of electric lighting to coal mines have latcly been mado in England and with vala- able results, The Pleasly pits, near Mansfield, were chosen for the pur- pose. ' They aro about 1,600 feot deep. The Swan system of lights was used. It seems to resemble Fdison's inven- tion in some respect, and consists of » filament of carbon in a small and exhausted rocoiver. It is essential that the light used in coal mines be kept free from contact with the sur- rounding air. The Swan lamp ls so constructed that, in case of fracture, the carbon will be lustantly consumed before the flame could be communica- ted to the outer alr. The new light was found t0 be admirably saited to the requiremonts of the workess. The eloctrio Mght would very much dimin- oway with the danger of explosions of fire-kamp. 1f Edison's subdivision of the light waessandully applied, of comme be & mere question of time W%hen all thecoal mines will bo illaminated by electricity, and the efficiency of the workers thereby much promoted. Austria’s rapid road to ruin is chief- ly caused by its inordinate thirst for military glory, for which it never had the means to pay. Since 1879 there has not been a single year in which her revenue has come up the expendi- tures. The accumulated deficits from 1851 to 1888 amountod to $650,000,- 000, and is still going. The deficits between 1870 and 1877 have amounted to nearly $85,000,000. Her debt has grown from £625.000,000 in 1848 to $1,955,000,- 000 in 1880. The most unsatisfactory outcome of all this is that, notwith- standing these enormous expenditures on her army, she has, during this period of waste and extravagance, lost her Italian provinces and been badly whipped by Prussia She still keeps up hershow of military grandeur, and is reorganizing the army with a view to having its war footing amount to 1,064,025 rank and file, with 31,808 ofticers, and 188,107 horses. Gambetta is now seriously consid- ering whethor the French senate is at present constituted is not unrepub- lican in its character. He is led to this view by its rejection of his elec- toral scheme after its laboriously achieved passage through the chamber of deputies. In a republic the popu- lar will, as expressed at regularly re- curring elections, ought to be su- preme; but it can not be 8o in France under the present constitution, any more than it can be in Great Britain 80 long as the House of Lords re- mains. Hence, in the latter country the liberals are constantly working to- words the abolition of their upper house, composed of lords, who hold their seats by hereditary grace, and of bishops who hold theirs by grace of appointment. Gambetta is determined to make a thorough fight for the thorough amendment of the senate, using all his energies towards the abolition of the life senatorship, as utterly incom patible with the full expression of the popular will. This change can, of course, be accomplished only by a constitutional convention; and it is strange that a large number of those who call themselves republicans op- pose Gambetta’s proposition to change the contitution of the senate. It would seem that the French ought to have a little difficulty in pro- viding for a senate that would as fairly represent the people as the Chamber of Deputies, for France does not labor under the difficulty which still sticks to our country, where we must nlecfng:o senators from every state, no ter how small or large it may be. e French departments and colonies could elect senators either by a direct vote of the people or else by an intermediate body—as with us—without such gross inequali- ties of representation as exist in our senate. Tho chief use of such an upper house in a parliamentary body is, of course, to place, when needed, a check on the legislation of the lower house without annulling it perman- ently. Hence the senators are elected for a longer time than the representa- tives, and by their small number are surrounded with a greater dignity. There seems little prospect of a re- newal of the commercial treaty be- tween * England and France. The chief point of difference is the substi- tution which the new French tariff makes of specific for ad valorem du- ties. The English strenuously object to this, as the change would bear so heavily on their low-priced woolens and cottons, and on all cheap goods, as to be practically prohibitory. France insists that the specific duties shall be adhered to. In the chamber of deputies on Saturday M. Tirard, minister of commerce, said that Eng- land could not prevail upon France to alter her decision, and ‘‘this difficulty had now stopped the negotiations.” Bome of Sir Charles Dilkes' recent statements in the house of commous indicate that the English government have so far yielded a8 to consider sys- tems of classification for these cheap goods such as would allow a continu- ance of trade in them, ovep under @ specific duty. This amounts practically to the abandonment of the stand for ad val- orem rates, though the government is by no wmeans prepared to admit as much. No doubt the French commis- sivners rely much upon the necessity which the English are undor of con- cluding some kind of a treaty, and that very soon. The new general tar- iff law was promulgated May 1. The presont duty expires six months from that date—November 1. If no new treaty is concluded by that time, Eng- lish imports will be taxed according to the provisions of the general law, whick would make the duties some 26 per cent. higher than under & treaty. The advantage of position, therefore, reste with the French, and they mean 0 hold it, as ls shown by M. Tirard's remark, apropos of the bill authoris- lng the government to prolong existing ftweatics three months with powers which are likely ties, that ‘4t woald be wnadvisable to encourege resisiance by granting oo long s delay." The uncerteinties of to conclude new tres- | from the [:ha present situation must have a bad effect on English trade, as it would bo manifestly unwise for English manu- facturers to make contracts which might become ruinously unprofitable in a few months by the failure of the treaty negotiations. All this tends to spread and ripen in England the dis- position to demand retaliatory duties. HONEY FOR 1HE LADIES. Cuffs are cleft. Waists are short. Spanish gidles magnify, Poppy buds for bouquets, Satin sashes predominate, Walking jackets are raw-edged. Jabot neck cloths are in vogue, Bright gilt shoes for full dress. Pufted bretelled finish cotton suits, Seal-browns are trimmed with ecru. Thereis no limit to pearl trimming. Double cords are worn round the waist. False skirts have not been exterminated, The hair is worn low with a gypsy or bonnet, Crayats of white mull are used with linen collars, Navy blue Dunstable straw makes a pretty street hat. Martha Washington's kerchief is utilized this hot weather. Bands of ribbon are worn on the arm with short sleeves, Low cut kid sleeves have enormous bows of ribbon at the instep, Basques are round in front, but the faney has full sway on the back. Black cloth boots with foxing of patent leather are worn with silk costumes. Driving hats, fashioned from Chinese straw, are trimmed with mull and an oc- casional plume. The best families take no jewelry and few dresses to the sea side. Their rank is known only by their carriage. A limp girl with two shades of yellow in her dress 15 described by London Truth as wearing mustard color and yolk of egg. A Paris physician was given $5,000 to remove a wart from a women’s nose, and she was only tolerable good looking at that, The gypsy belt is pointed in front at top mufbmum, with the sides run into paniers, which connect* with heavy back draperies, London Cuckoo, speakine of small walsts, says that many pretty girls who used to look like drinking cups now look like wine glasses. More than 4,000 cakes of toiletsoap were stolen from the Fifth Avenue hotel last year by lady gues! nd 2,800 towels went after the soap. Who's a thief? Dark women look best in light shades, which supply a pleasing contrast to the face; or in yellow shades, which shed a violet hue favorable to brunettes.

This would be a good protector for some of our American ladies against police- men who lead them across the street. In San Francisco a h#ndsome Italian woman of eighty, with silver halr, is a pro- fessional beggar. She owns three houses, for which ehe receives in rents $180 a month. At night she sits in a comfortable room, sipping wino with o maseuline bug- gar who, during the dwytime, plays a mus- ical instrument on the streets. Two Madis n avenue sisters, one a dark brunette and the other a light blonde, are described by the Cincinnati Enquirer's fashion correspondent as so anxious about harmony in colors that each has a part of their parlor furnished and decorated with special reference to her own complexion. When receiving callers each stays as much as possible on her own side of the room, The same writer says; ‘‘A young novice ot & convent retired the other day from the institution, refusing to become a downright nun because she had concluded that the black habit was unbecoming to her. If she can hear of a religious order whose garb is light blue, she will doubtless join it devoutly. ‘“When we are married, Lucy” said the hoor man’s son to the rich man's daughter, ‘our honeymoon shall be passed abroad. ‘We will drive in the Bois, promenade the Prada, gaze down into the blue waters of the Adriatic from: the Rialto and enjoy the Neapolitan sunsets, strolling along the Chiaja.” ‘‘How delicious,” she murmured; John, dear, have you money enough to do all this, for pa says I mustn't expect anything until he dies.” John's counte. nance underwent such a change that she couldn’t help asking him if he felt sick. “No, dar] " he answered faintly, “Tam as only thinking that per- haps we had better postpone our marriage until after the funeral.” MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC, Blanche Correlli will star in Madame Favart this séasou.
