This in not the timber from which the people of - Nebraska dosire to select their Su- preme Judges, Tur interest of Tur Bee in efficient public schools began with its existence, Tho prime object of starting Tur Brx was to defend the act creating a Board of Education against the assaults of the Omaha Republican then acting as the organ of old fossils and aristocrats who wanted to transform our High School into an Acadomy for paying pupils, Tho gitizons of Omaha endorsed the Board of Fducation act, of which the editor of this phonso continues lawyers | country born in (€ wrte Bancroft years befor the outbreak of the 5,000 Germans i of the De the number had in tion th tion of Inde creased to fully 1520 and 15879 on letween the f the en- was Ger 200,000, o gration from Europ , 002,027 natives of the Father.

They have ac- copted our hospitality, but in return they have brought with them many valuable ideas, which have been engratted into our national life. Education has followed and advanced everywhere in their foot- steps; the arts and sciences have ro- ceived the benefit of their support, and the advantage of their uggestions. Many of their customs and manners are slowly rooting themselves among us, and the German love of legitimate pleasure, outdoor exercise and personal enjoy- ment, of singing companies and festal commemorations, are little by little being transplanted into the American charac- ter. In the words of a recent writer, “no finer strain has pervaded our com- posito nationality than that of the Ger- man. He has brought with him the very olements that are cssentinl to sure growth, and that will tend to strongthen our institutions—a clear, strong love of liborly, honosty and courage of convic- tion, coolness of disposition, quictness and nobriety of habit wique, capacity for physical work on the ono hand and deep intellectual attain- mont on the other, GIVE US THE RECORD, Sinco the Omaha Republican is calling loudly for records, will it kindly lot us have the war record of Mr, M.

CGradually, how- over, business adjwsts itself. The freight- orfinds business on shorter lines; the farmer, mot being able to sell his hay, foods it to his cattle, and the men away ot in Chicago, or New York, or London, want hin beef. The old merchant arouscs himself, reduces his profits and opens a branch store at some point where the near appoach of the railroad makes it pos- sible; new enterprises start up, the popu- lation and their work increases, and the road bocomes a real blessing. But it will not b hard this year and next to find men for a thousand miles along the Northern Pacific ready to prove that the building of the road Has been a real mis- fortuno, o has been considerablo dispute as to the manner in which Judge Edgerton’s decision in the Dakota capital quo war- ranto case was made public. It has been maintained that the publication of the decision was premature, and without the consent or knowledge of Judge Edger- ton, Reports obtained currency to the effect that the decision as published was aforgery. All these rumors are now disposed of by the statement of Judge Edgerton himself, who has returned from an extended tour in the West, to a reporter of The Yankton Press and Dakotian, on the 20th ult., that the published decision is authentic in every particular. The Judge says that the de- u{ m publication, which has been the subject of much comment, was by agreo- ment of counsel on both sides. The commissioners who located the capital at Bismarck are so confident of viotory in the Territorial Supreme court | paper was the author, by a vote of just | was Mr. Reese doing during this period? | that one of them offered to wager $10,000 ten to one, From that day to this our interest in the public schools of Omaha hos been unabated Our aim has always been to encourage the building up of free schools that would rank with the best in the country. This much is proper in answor to the silly flings of an eminent divine who carries his church into the schoel board,and secks to defend his own course through long _windedZeditorials in the Republican, The Bre has called attention to the extravagance of the school board, and cited as instances the $1,600 janitor and $1,000 music teacher to teach the teach- ers how toteach, Wo have nover and donot now object to teachers for proper and us ful specialitios. We approve of a teacher for drawing, becauso wo beliove that mathomatical drawing oan be applied in life by both men and women to great ad- vantago, It is useful for carpenters, ma- chinists and all tradesmen, as well as for dross makers and artists, We should not object to a teacher in German, if it could bo properly taught, Did ho shoulder his musket, like thou- sands of other Republicans now in Ne- braska, or did he jcin the home guards? Whilo Judge Savage, as colonel of the Twolith New York cavalry, was fighting gallantly with Goneral Kilpatatrick, what employed the attention of Mr, M. B, Roose? Wo hear a groat deal of our soldicrs voting as they shot. Wo do not believe that service in the late war is essential to office holding. 1f this were so the editor of the Republican, who was sucking his thumb at that oo, would bo forever barrad out, and Yost, who gallantly shed red ink as doputy marshal, would be forced to shut up his political shop at once. But while the issues of the war aro atill held up to ropublicans s party issues and loyality and patriotwsm ave prosonted as endorsoments for office, it may bo woll for tho Republican party in Nebraska to remember James W, Savage fought in the robellion from July, 1861, to tho closo of the war with a regiment whoso valor is emblazoned on the records of the war in a half a dozen southern Weo have nover objected to & teacher in |states, For eloven yoars a practising Blocution, We do not object to singing | lawyer in New York City, ho laid aside in the public achools.

(ladicd BXTho coal ficlds of the Gallatin valley, Montana, are being thoroughly worked and the quality and extent of the veins aro improving constantly. The develop- ments at present embrace two main drifts, one 900 and the other 1100 feet along the vein, making a continuous development in solid coal, the vein nowhere contract- ing to less than 6 feet and at places wid- ening to 18 to 20 feet. Solid masses of | coal are oxposed above and below, and usually along the sides, throughout the waorkings. From 60 to 76 are -now en- gaged in the ming, and the outpu coal daily is from 80 to 100 tons. © working force will soon be largely in- creasod, the demand now being greatly in excens of the supply. The conl bodies and working fncifiti\vnwill warrant an out- put of 1,000 tons a day. The recent visit of Senator Vest and Delegate Maginnis to the Indian reserva- tions in Montana, to negotiate for the purchaso by the Government of portions of their lands, bas directed attention to the enormous area of these roservatiens, Thero are three reservations in the Ter- ritory: The embraces 5,842,048 acres or 9,128.2 square miles; the Blackfeet, 22,006,448 acres or 84,- 4007 square miles, and the Flathead, 1,008,008 acros or 2,607 3 square miles, making a total of 20,669,104 acres or 46,- 186.1 square miles. This vast area is as large as the State of New York, with its five million inhabitants, or 100 to the square mile. Even if 40,000 square miles were withdrawn from these reser- vations it would still leave something over 6,000, an area as large as Connecti- ) feut and Rhode Island together, which maintaing a pulation of one million, owded, to support an Indian population of 18,905, nnfiy about three to the square mile, This would still give 160 acres to v Indian, old and young, malo and fomale, and leav a illion acres to spave. The success of the Congressional committee does not give much hope of the early opening of any large amount of this territory, The Flathead tribe, which controls nearly two-thirds of the whole, informed the comuitteo that they wero perfectly happy and satisfied with ‘their present” condi- tion, and that their lands were not for Jrow reserve and his election will, it is said, bring t the road the support of A..J.

Next year it is pro- posed to push the extension of the road as originally laid out, and to connect with the Greeley, Longmont & Western road and build as far north as Cheyenne. It is thought the local traffic on this road will more than pay good interest on the first cost. Mr. Evarts has returned home delight- ed with the Northern Pacific and the em- pire which is tributary to it. He finds that it commands an unlimited bread- producing area; that it is 600 miles nearer China from New York than any other through road, and that all the Northern harbors are good. This is all good, says The Salt Lake Tribune, but the route is not remarkable in that way. Its chief advantace is that along nearly the whole length of the road there are places for homes, where people can make good liv- ings and still as a mass not become too rich. Throughout most of the route of the Northern Pacific there are not going to be many very rich men and very few very poor men. This is the best feature of that region, for that means thousands of prosperous and contented families and comfortable if not too elegant homes, PR STATE JOTTINGS.
