James W. Dawes, Chairman, Crere, Augnst 12, 1881 ———eeeeeeeeeee Tuy. condition of President Garfield is regarded as extremely alarming if not absolutely hopeless. At midnight the cabinet officers in uttendance at OMAHA AND THE ELKHORN VALLEY, The meeting held on Wednesday evening to discuss the trade relations of our city to Northern Nebraska | marks, we hope, the beginning of an anergetic move on the part of Omaha merchants towards ocoupying the rich and fertile territory of which they have boen heretofore practically de- A railroad up the valley of the Logan and froni thence up the Elkhorn to Wayne mooted and steps looking to a thorough discussion of the plan ought at once to be taken. Such a trans- portation is generally needed, ago the Omaha & Northwestern came into existence under the stimulus of a Iarge state land grant and a subsidy of $150,000 from our citizens, The line was constructed more with a view to economy of funds than to the inter- ests of this city and the country lying north, By avoiding the high ground and seeking the bottoms adjacent to the river the original cost was greatly lessened, but at the same time the richest portions of Washington and Burt counties were left in the cold and the prived. county was Years ‘| road bed itself placed whereits main- tenance has always since been a heavy exponse, If a railroad can be constructed from Omaha northward which taking the high lands above Florence strikes northwesterly into the valley of the Logan and then passes up the Elk- horn to the northern tier of counties the schome will be equally profitable to our city and all Northern Nebraska. There should be no difficulty in rais- ing capital sufficient for such an en- terprise without calling upon the city or county for local aid. There are enough men of means in Omaha to take up the construction of the road to ecarry it through to completion the White House were all of the opinion that the end would be reach- ed within less than twenty-four hours. The sad event that will bring un- speakable grief into every American household can only be averted by what would be regarded almost as a miracle. While thers is life there is hope but in this case hope has almost fled and while we most tervently pray that the bitter cup may be turned away, we cannot repress the fear that the heroic spirit of James A. Garfiela is about to part from its mortal cas- ket. Tae stability of a government de- pends upon the enforcement of its laws.

These men know that under the modern system of railroad construction a com- paratively small sum of ready capital is sufficient to build a great many miles of road when the adjuncts of stock and bonds is taken into consideration. And if such a line is once constructed when its operation on its sale to ex- isting roads would leave a handsome margin of profit in the pockets of its proprietors, Tur BeE urgos upon our merchants the necessity of besterring themselves in this matter of extending their trade into Northern Nebraska, With- in its lovely and fertile valleys lie the richest farming lands of our state hundreds of thousands of acres of which are in a state of only partial cultivation, Other interests antagonistic to Oma- ha are working to seize the trade of this rapidly growing region and to carry it out of the state. The people of northern Nebraska are as loyal to tho staie as those south of the Platte. All things being equal they would prefer to cultivate commercial rela- tions with our city to the exclusion of trade in cities in other states. For many years thoy have been cut off from us throueh the lack of railroad accommodations and our wholesale houses have onlybeen able to retain a foothold on the territory at great ex- pense and inconvenience. The Oma- ha & Elkhorn line will at once mark the commercial nuptials of Nebraska's metropolis and northern Nebraska, The sooner the road is built the bet- ter for all parties concerned. A WAY OUT.

Omaha's perity may be, and no doubt is, crippled by the | rascality of ita railroads, but it is | nothing to compare with the rascality |of the B. & M. lere. We have vir- | tually one road and it diverges to the four points of the compass; it squeezes vur people at will, and our people are tired of it. 1t is very much to be re- gretted to be sure that the only way out of the trouble is bonds to a com- peting lino, but such is the case and it being the case the bonds will be forthcoming. The peo- ple of Lancaster, = Saunders and Dodge will, we presume, deem it very cheap, if for one hun- dred and fifty thousand dollars they are enabled to shake loose the raii- road leeches that have fastened th selves thick and deep upon the very vitals of their prosperity. If the bonds were merely a subsidy tosecure another road which, when construct- ed, would be another B, & M. or U, P., we would understand Tur Bee's sympathy; but as the bonds tv be voted contemplate a railroad which can’t be bulldozed by citherjthe B. & M. or U. P., we are at a loss to un- derstand why Tur Ber should shed crocodile tears. —Lincoln Democrat, Tue Bek has no disposition to lay a stone in the way of Lincoln in any effort to secure fair treatment at the hands of the B. & M. and Union Pa- cific by the construction of a compe- ting line. Our position simply is and has been consistent opposition to the further voting of subsidies to railway corpo- rations. If there ever was any ex- cuse for voting bonds to encourage railioad building in Nebraska that time hae passed away. Money is abundant, and wherever capitalists can build a railroad with reasonable prospect of a fair traffic they are teady and anxious to build. It is simply absurd to claim that $150,000 are needed to induce the Chicago & Northwestern to extend its line from * Fremont to Lincoln. That ccrporation is building hundreds of miles of branch roads in Towa and Wisconsin without a dollar of subsidy and it can and will build the Lincoln and Fremont stub at any tume without a dollar of bonds if its managers have a desire to reach out in that direction. It would be foolish and criminal for the farmers of Saun- ders and Dodge county to vote mort- gagos on their homesteads, to subsi- dize this railrond when any man of common sense can see that the money will be pocketed by a coustruction ring, organized for that purpose. 1t is the province of all fearless anid out- spoken papers to warn people against all such schemes and this is all Tue Bek has done in the premises. ANOTHER river improvement con- vention has just been called by the 8t. Louis Merchant’s Exchange to be held in that city on October 26th. This convention seems to be es- pecially desiened for urging the im- provement of the Mlssissippi riv- er and its navigable tributaries. One of the objects sought to be ac- complished by this convention is con- cert of action on the part of the west Eighteen states and three territories are direct- ly interested in the improvement of the Mississippi and its navigable trib- utaries, and if the representatives of the west and south in congress pull towether there is no doubt they can got all the necessary appropriations from the national government that may be needed to make the Mis- souri and Mississippi rivers nwvigable from the gulf of Mexico to the Rockies. Leading engineers have already taken a very active interest in the proposed improvement of our in- land water routes, and it only requires concerted action on the part of the representatics of the states and {erri- tories in the Mississippi and Missouri basins, and south in congress. No paper in this country has done more to ferret out and expose the ' in- famous frauds pecpetrated upon the government by the star route ring than the New York Times. In this good work nolabor, pains or expunse have been spared to present reliable, spacific statements covering the va ious star route contracts and the dis- honest methods whereby vast sums of money were squandered and stolen under the pretext of public necessity.

Cleveland Leader, The opinion is becoming prevalent that something should be done for industrial training in schools The subject has recontly received the at- tention of a Boston committee, and they have reached the conclusion that industrial training, that is to say the training of the the hand and eye, and thercby the mind as well, is an inval- serves recognition and support such education.

The time is at hand when this question should receive the careful attention of every farmer. The present year's experience with seed corn has taught the most careful some new ideas respecting the care of seed. For some unaccountable reason, much seed that was picked early, and well cared for, did not grow; while some corn saved at husking time grew well. It is universally conceded that corn icked early, and hung up by the husks, makes the strongest seed. This is true if the corn is thoroughly dried, and well protected during the winter. We have known many in- stances where seed had been hung up by the husks and failed to grow, w*xich could b easily traced tos cause, Sometimes it is taken from a pile that had been picked the day provious, sthich is a mistake, for new corn soon heats enough to destroy the germ. Corn is often hung up too thick in a poorly ventilated place and sours enough to. injure its vitality, The last corn the writer hung up by the shuck was neariy ruined by several cloudy and fogey days following the time 1t was picked. “There are a great many causes that work injury to the vitality of corn that is picked green, which makes that manner of saving seed corn of donbiful expediency We have savod-our seed at picking time for several years past, and always seoured cxcollont seed.

Sup- pose the president was notoriously di abled from performing his public duties, the business of the government was entirely obstructed, the public interests injured, and the cabinet much better vaviety of corn, and con- sequontly, can improve the quality greatly and thereby increase the crop. Itis a sad fact that most farmers are very carcless in the matter of seeds; they only aim to plant about an average quality, wnich, by deter- iorating ten or filteen per cent. every year, soon runs out, 1 there is any crop that will justify the farmer in making choice’ scle¢ tions of its seed, its King corn, as it takes comparatively little seed, and that should be the best in the field which can only be found at husking time, In selocting sced we always choose the ears that have the greatest num- ber of rows, regardless of length.

We reject all ears with less than eighteen rows, and when we find a nice ear with twenty- four rows or upwards, we prize it as a jewel. Of course an ear of this size will not bring its kind very correctly, but it will produce much larger corn than a sixteen rowed ear will. OCCIDENTAL JOTTINGS.
