Some Interesting News F‘rcm' That Lively Place. “Tow the Crops are Getting Along Other Items of Interest orrespondence of The Brx. ” Brue Smrives, August 13.—Be- tween Superior and Odvll your cor- respondent found a section where THE CROPS have suffored severely from drouth and hot winds, but from Odell to Beatrice prospects are quite favor- able for a fair yield of corn, say about an average of forty bushels to the acre. The heavy rain of Friday night will still further advance the crop, and in fact- this section could get along nicely even if there was no more rain, but much of the corn farther west is past all redemption. Tn the far west, Towever, late advices are still favor- able. HORSES, At Chester 1 saw 158 head of Texas half-broed ponics. They were being peddled out by two be-pistoled and bowie-knife-decorated fellows, who looked savage enough to do all that Texas desperadoes are in the habit of doing. Prices ranged from 8§10 to $35 each, and I should judge by the appearance of the unbroken, raw- boned, shapeless, diminutive creatures what they were dear horses at any Price. PERSONALIA, Frank H. Goddard came to Chester while I was in town and took the wrappings off from the prettiest heat- ang stove that ever burned hard coal. That was a new idea to us—traveling with a full-grown base-burner for a sample. 0. H. Phillips, a veteran mail agent, is the only man who makes the run GruTitie) Kepiblican “Vallky, " euwtets division, when there is work enough for three men. He has to get up at 2 o'clock in the morning and cannot get to bed before 11 at night, and yet he manages somehow to do all the handling of the mail for the whole route in_such a manner that on his division I have not heard of a single complaint about the delivery of Tue Bee. - The magniticent(?) salary of $900 a year is “‘-fim our government ays this man for his work, and he Socl not know what it is to visit his ‘wife and babies at Beatrice more than two or three times a year. Reader, don’t you want to be a mail agent, right off, quick? ODDS AND ENDS, Typhoid fever is quite prevalent now, and in some localities it is al- most epidemic. Apropos of the coming re-union at Lincoln, I wonder if our government has placed a stone to mark the resting-place of 128 brave boys who are buried on the battle-field of Lono Jack, Mis- souri, The confederates have erected a fine monument to their dead who were killed in that, fight, but only a few months ago the long trench in which was placed a solid rank of ‘‘boys in blue” was unmarked by stick or stone. Thirty imiles southeast of Kansas City sleep these apparently forgotten heroes of a desperate battle with Quantrell’s cut-throats. Some of the enterprising citizens of that region so noted for their damnable deeds, des- troy the headstones of the Union boys after they are erected; so at least it was reported to me. It has been suggested that a thousand old veterans could, and it would'be a right Jjolly picnic for them oo, go down to Jlfl{lull county, Missouri, and eon- vince those grave-desecrating, train- robbing, woman-killing gang of jack- als and wolves that the lYniou soldiers ropose to protect the graves of their SM comrades, and that they are not averse to disposing of the robbers that semi-occasionally parade the stroets of Kansas City and bonst of their partnership with her police, A nice little piece of cheek has recently come to light in a town not far from the Big Blue river. An honest, easy yoing miller was being insured by a live five insurance ent, and after writing him down for 1 the mill was worth; he tackled him to take out a policy on his mill dam about afoot of which appeared above the water, He succeeded and that mill-dam is protected from fire by a $3,000 policy. BLUE SPRINGS, Ishould, to do this town justice, give it a full column or more, but unfor- tunately space is precious, This is the largest town between Beatrice and Red Cloud by more than two to one, and it is substantial, thrifty and prosperous. Tt has nota vacant house, and the last store that was built had an average of six appli- cants a day for it while it was being polished off. An excellent mill with a magnificont water privilege, a well established trade with all the surrounding coun- try and special freight rates over the Bt. Joo & Western makes it a trading point of no small importance, There is a lively fight between the B. & M. that runs through the town and the 85 Joe branch of of the U, P, that terminates here, and, as this i f osed to bea U, P, town, the B. & M, is givng it no favors, but concentrates them on Wy- more, an opposition station one and a half miles south. The latter town, it is said, can't get a postoffice and it has uot yet got any material encourage- went from the farmers, and hence it don'tseem to boom with that booming boow with which new towns are wont to boum, and yet Captain Ashley seems to be happy, and he says the city of Wywmore is Luund to be the great anetropolis of Southern Nebraska with machine shops and round lLouses, big mewspapers (a good one is npw edites by the Captain), and tremendous tels; there is & stuuner now build. ing. Well it is all right, and Wymore mfir win in the long run, zu' 1 will bet on Blue Springs. 1 visited the town seven years ago when there was vothing of it buta mill, & country tavern and a store where navy tol the principal staples.

RANGER. | —_— Alma Matters. | Corrempondence of Tue Ban Arna, August 16, A large acreage of wheat has just been harvested and has produced an cxcellent crop, Most of the grain has been stacked, Corn looks well snd promises to produce | much more than usual. Potatoes are excellent, both in quantity and qual- lity. Every one has a good garden. Bocause of the good crops, the farm- er’s countenance beams with a com- placent smile. The business men also are confident of a prosperous t. s when the farmer is successful every one else prospers. The bridges at Orleans, Republican City and this place are to be put in very soon.

A number of new buildings have been erccted in Alma during the past year, Treno, Russian Vastness. St Petershury letter to The London Times, It would hardly seem possibls for a sentimental traveler —supposing a person answering that description to exist in our days—to arrive for the first time at St. Petersburg, at this moment without a mixture of feelings in which sadness predominated, He is aware that he has crossed the fron- tier of a large state, the largest of all compact states, and, perhaps, only second to that of the United {(ingdnm of Great Britain and Ireland, with all its colonies and possessions; so big a atate that from the frontier station at Vierzbolow, or Wirballen, to the St. Petersburg terminus there s a distance of 560 miles, far exceeding that between London and Edinburgh, and yet this first journey of two nights and two days only brings one to the capital, which lies in a cor- ner of the empire. A glance at the map will satisfy us that the surface of the smaller hlfi of this empire—Eu- ropean Russia—is considerably larger than that of all the other states of Eu- rope put together; while the other half —Biberia, with the rest of the Asiatic provinces—is not far from covering one-third of the Asiatic con- tinent; and that a recent traveler, the Rev. Henry Linsdell, in his five months’ journey from London to the mouth of the Amoor, all across the czar's dominions, went over 2,600 miles by rail, 5,700 miles by steam, and 8,000 miles by horses, or, alto- jether 11,600 miles almost in a straight ine, So far, then, asa man may take pride in the mere bigness of his coun- try, a Russian has ample reason to be E:uud, But a state, like a man, ma; none the happier for all that, X lofty stature, to be sure, epables a man to look over the heads of a crowd an unquestionable advantage, and mere height imparts a dignity and command which the undersized full, appreciate. But a six foot giant, u{ once saw, doubling hilnnuff up and drawling in his legs to get into a la- ;I,y broughan is a ludicrous sight. ery tall men are seldom well-propor- tioned or robust, and in war they offer too easy a target to the wicked breech loaders of modern construction. In the same manner Russia is made un- wieldy by her very bulk. She has to struggle with her prodigious length and width, and to do it at greater dis- advantage than other large states. In the western continent, for instance, in the United States, Brazil and the republice of South America, man was powerfully aided by nature in his figilt against enor- mous distances by the length of navi- pable water-courses, the Mississippi and Missouri, the St. Lawrence, the Platte, Parana and Uruguay, the Amazon, the San Francisco, etc., even before he could help himself by his railways; whereas in thuiu the north- ern streams both of Europe and Asia, the Nieman, the Dwina, the Obi, the Yenisei, the Lena, etc., empty them- selves either in the Winte and Arctic seas, choked with ice for six or eight months inthe year, or in the Baltic, 80 frozen in the winter months, and for a long time placed beyond reach of the czar's sway; and the southern streams, the Volga, the Don ete., ended either in the Caspian or the sea of Azoff and the Euxine, both closed for centuries against Russian enter- prise and expansion, With respect to railways, it was Russia’s misfortune to go late to work about their construction, and even what she has achieved between 1he Orimean and Turkish® wars 1854~ 1876—scarcely amou nts now to 14,000 miles, to which, after the peace ot Berlin, she is barely adding 700 miles early — iking contrast to other arge countrics,—as to the United States of North America, for instance, which boasts of a net of railway lines of 95,000 miles, with an average an- nual addition of 10,000 miles, This backwardness of Russia in her en- deavors to annihilate space by rapid and easy means of locomotion cannot be without graveconsequences for her commercial and social, as well as financial and political, interests, It is lost ground Iur her in her battle of life; in the mcessant struggle against that geographical position which from the beginning doomed her to seclu- | sion from the civilized 'world— a strug- gle the evidence of which may be read in every page of the country’s history, | and may be followed in every shift of its governmont's policy, —— FARMERS AND MECHANICS, If you wish to avoid great danger aud trouble, besides a no swall biil of expense, at this scason of the year, | you should take prompt steps to keep discase from {uul’ household. The systein should be cleansed, blood puri- fied, stomach and bowels regulated, and prevent and cure discasps arising from spring malaria, We know of nothing that will so perfectly and surely do this as Electric Bitters, and at the trifing cost of fifty cents & bot- .~ Exchange. Bold By Lsh & McMahon, m THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: The Star Ronte Abnses. The attention of the postoffice de- partment has been turned lately to a peculiar phase in the star route service, which may be saill to be r sponsgible for much of the rascality | that has been developed in connection with this service, The many thous- | living in other reduced hundred contractors, states, who sub-let at ¢ rates. Every day, congressmen, sen ators and influential partisans are calling upon the postmaster general to inquire why these roules cannot be held sby, contractors in their own states, and why the sub-contractors themselves cannot have control of the service which they now This question has been and star routes are all held by a few ‘ | | | perform | put to the | department so frequent that Second | # Assistant Postmaster General Eliner has turned his attention to it, with the hope of forming some plan by | which people can be induced to take hold of the routes of their own states. The competition for the star routes has been in the past confined to a cer ain number of heavy contractors, whose influence has enabled them to get control of thousands of routes and whose carefully matured scheme of straw bidding has “frozen out” men who may at times have made efforts to secure them. The question arises with the postoffice authorities, why cannot the sub-contractors take these con- tracts at somewhere near the figure he now accepts and save the government from $200 to 81,000 per year on e of these routes?; Of course postoftice department vite bids from any state or locality. the cannot in- particalar At present the only feasible plans seems to be a more|; extensive systein of advertising. It is suggested that a system of newspa- per advertising in all the w dailies, not only at the t routes, but in ev line, would effect much in this way. Many men who can earn a thousand dollars a year at farm labor will gladly take hold of the government mail service for from £3,000 to £5,000a year. Tt is not glaimed that this reasoning is applicable to the great routes of the western and southwestern plains, but to the numerous small one throughout the castern, western and southern states, The govern- ment stand ready to encourage these lettings to small contractors, but it cannot diseviminate, and whatever is done must be done by the people of the state themselves.

Aurelia lowa Independent, John Brennan, in admitting that he is “‘not of the right stuff’ to make a revolutionist,” admits himself to be | lacking in the clement of bravery tha characterizes the men who must and shall bring the Irishman from under English tyranny. es the kind of “‘revo- lution” in this case.

Bring your countrymen away; let old England have the Green Isle. True, there are many fond recollections clustering around its memory that’ will cause a pang and tear at separation, but these are naught compared to a little home on the green sod of Nebraska.
