THE STATE FAIR. The Nebraska state fair, which was v under the favoring opened yestord circumstances of a clondless sky and a balmy atmosphere, promises to sur- pass any of its predecessors in the ex- tent and great variely of the ex- hibits and the number of visitors, It is a stafe fair to a much greater degree than any other which has here- tofore been held in Nebraska, The representation by connties is lara er in number and extent. Every por- tion of the state has been laid under contribution and the result is yratifying in the highest degree. In the department of stock the entries are particularly numerous. This is ns it should be. No state in the west is w0 well adapted s Nebraska for the rearing and feeding of the higher grades of blooded cows and cattle, are unequaled for cheap summer graz- ing, and an immense corn crop, of which we are always assured, offers preat opportunity for winter feeding. Tt was one of the best results of our last fair that the excellent display of stock fostered an increased interest in the subject of improved breeds and this year’s exhibit is likely to further Our ranges and meadows " | this end to a still greater degree. The individual agricultural exhibits are not as numerous as might be de- sired, and afford good opportunity by which visitors may form an opinion . | a8 to the resources of our stato in the of farm products. To many eastern visitors this display will doubtless be a pleasant surprise. Nobraska, de- spite inaccurate geographies and that old bugbear of the Great American desert, is an agricultural state which yields to none of her sistrs in many particulars and excels especially in corn and cattle. One pleasing feature of the fair is the exhibit made by the territories Jonnected by commercial bands with Omaha and through Omaha with the remainder of the state, any display by which their b | capabilities and resources are brought iuto prominence must possess special interest to our citizens. Our devel- opment to a large degree goes hand in hand with theirs. Omaha's share in the state fair is by no means an inconsiderable part of the exhibition, Our merchants have awakened to the great advan- tages offered them to make known their goods to thousands of customers, and the consequence is a display which nearly doubles that made last year. The idea, adopted in a number of in- stances, of making individual displays in separate buildings, adds greatly to the attractiveness of the fair as well as furnishing an evidence of the thrift and enterprise of the exhibitors. During the week Tur Bek will take pleasure in noting and commenting upon a number of features of the fair, whose discussion would be out of place this time. It congratulates the fmanagers upon the evidence of their by incisions from outside and the im- prisoned pus refieved. With the lungs the case is far differont. A constitution wonkened by ten wecks of pain and suffering must now be de- pended upon, and the physicians can do little but stand byaad let nature do her work. Oxr of the quostions at issue be- tween the readjusters and funders of Virginia is th cording to the Richmond State, one of tRe leading organs of the funders or Bourbons, the facts in the case are as follows “The state of Virginia, in its con- stitution, provided that a capitation tax of one dollar should be collected from each male adult citizen of the commonwealth annually, to be devoted to the maintenance of the public schools. The property owner was com- pelled to pay it becauso it was charged against him and included in his general tax receipt, whilo the non-property owner, against whom no other tax was assessed, could not be forced to pay eyen this small amount, and no means could be devised for its collection, There was at one time a plan adopted by which the children of a person able to pay the tax, but who refused or failed, were deprived of the bene- fits of these institutions; but this de- feated the very object of the schools, which is the improvement of the morals of the people through education, and, bcsi‘Yen, punished the child for the dereliction of the parent, and so it was considered not only a harsh but an unwise measure, ‘In this dilemma the plan of making the payment of the poll tax a prerequisite to voting was hit upon by the legisla- rapitation tax. Ac- ture, and the question was submitted to the people. It was carried, and became a part ot the constitution, and now no person in the common- wealth can cast his vote without first showing his clear right to exercise that privilege by producing the re- ceipt for his capitation tax of the previous year.” The readjusters, on the other hand, say that the capitation tax is a restric- tion upon the freedom of the ballot and opposed to the spirit of universal suffrage and, therefore, ought to be repealed. They claim that it was purposely devised and has been used as & means of suppressing the repub- lican negro vote in the state. —— Tuk advance of street railroad fare from five to ten cents during the state fair is a piece of highway robbery for which our city council is largely re- sponsible. The city of Omaha, through its council, has she right to regulate street railways and restrain them from practicing extortiog upon the public. Tt is clearly the dnty of the council to regulate the toll charged on these roads just as they have lim- ited the toll chargeable by hacks, omnibuses and express wagons, If the street rail- road had evenf been extended to the fair grounds for the public accom- modation, as it should have been long ago—this doubling of the fare would be in part excusable—As it is, the whole system of street car connec- tions to the fair is a disgrace to the earnest work, and the peoplo of Omaha | ¢ity and an imposition upon every upon an’ exhibition and attendance |Man, woman and child that is com- which proves the wisdom of the selec- | Pelled to patronizo the ah:eeb L tion of Nebraska's ‘motropolis as the | line.

To the Editor of the Hern'd : Omana, Sept. 12,—In your lame apology in Sunday morning’s Herald for your refusal to publish my com- munication in reply to your tirade of abuse upon the “Doane law" and my- self personally, you say that I “‘invit- ed the discussion.” You flatter your- self, doctor. T invited no discussion with you, for I well know that discus- sion in yeur vocabulary means cnly mud-slinging and personal abuse, I simply resuested you to publish the railroa law, which you were continually maligning and mis- representing in the ‘‘Herald,” that your readers might see how little foundation the law itself afforded for your unfavorable diatribes. T made this request, believing at the time that you would not be permitted to comply with it. 1 was not at all dis- appointed, when in the placo of pub- lishing a short law of four sections, you launched out in a column of edi- torial slush and abuse, which I doubt not you consider ‘‘discus- sion” of the merits of the law. A large portion of your article was de- voted to an endeavor to hold me up to ridicule for a mis-reference by me, as you pretended, to the page upon which the law could be found. In exposing the ridiculous figure you cut in the rolo of a critic, and the utter lack of excuse for your making such an_‘“‘amusing exposure” of your ignor- ance, I referred te the fact that the seasion laws of 1881 were printed and bound in the basement of the ‘‘Her- ald” oftice, so that they were easily accessible to you, and that a very lit- tle trouble would have saved you from thehumiliating attitude'of “‘fallinginto the pit you had dug for another.” 1 also took occasion in that connection to correct another error you commit- ted in your effort to cast a slur upon my action as a legislator, and the manner in which I employed my time 1 the senate. You flattered yourself that T gave much time to abuse of the editor of the Herald on the floor of senate. Be assured, doctor, I had much more important mat- ters to attend to than the ed- itor of the Herald while in the senate. The only matter I could re- call in which the editor of the Herald could have been personally interested which engaged any considerable por- tion of my time was the investigation into the last letting of the contracts for the state printing and binding, in which it appeared that, after all com- petition had been withdrawn, the co: tracts were awarded to the three in- dividuals who were understood to be the representatives of the three news- papers claiming to be the organs par excellence of the democratic, republican and greenback parties of the state— an arrangement worthy of the palmy days of Tweed and the ‘‘New York Ring.” There would have been no special cause of complaint in this ap- portionment, however, if the accom- panying feature of a wholesale steal from the treasury of the state had not also been borrowed from the ‘‘New York Ring.” The advance in prices for the work under the new contracts ranged from fifty to one thousand per cent over ‘the previous contract ! I did denounce this as a disgraceful swindle on the floorof the senate, and, truth to say, not a senator could raise his voice in_vindication of it. I alluded to these facts in my article, which you refused to publish, and you whine about ‘‘personal abuse,” and say I accuse you of ‘‘being a pub- lic swindler.” I did not so accuse you. I stated the facts simply, and you seem to have been very ready to make the application. Now all this is just as relevant to the discussion of the railroad law as the abuse and slurs you cast upon me in the column and over, which gou devoted, like the ink-fish, to the beclouding and con- cealing your real purpose, which was the refusal to publish the “Doane Law” as requested, while making a show of compliance, It isnot the de- sign of the railroad companies, their agents or servants to let the people know what the law really is, but to assail it by misrepresentation and falsification, and expect the people to accept their assertions in place of giv- ing them an_opportunity to read its provigions for themselves. If the {erald, in performing this role, would agsumo its true character as the sub- sidized organ of the Union Pa- cific railway company its readers could appreciate the reason of 1ts positions upon all questions affecting railroad interests, and guage their value accordingly. But to masquer- ade before the people of the state as a democratic organ, and thus endeavor to commit the democratic party of this state to your odious monopoly princi- ples, under the falss pretence of rep- resentjng democratic sentiment, is a deceptionyou have no right to prac- tie Here at home, the position you occupy with the Unwon Pa. cific railrond, as an enforced pensioner of its bounty, is well under- stood and deceives nof one. But in other portions of the state the Her- ald may still be accepted, by those who are ignorant of its true relations to the railroads, as an organ of domo- cratic opinion, 1t is not surprising that undersuch an incubus the democratic party has staggered from defeat in one year to a worse one the next, until it has be- come buried under & mountain of ma- jorities, from which it can only to emerge by doughing off its digexmpd monopoly organs and again taking its true position as the champion of the rights of the people as against mo nopolies.
