Whether it comes or not, it is advisuble to bo prepared for it. This will apply to Omaha, as well a8 to any other large oity. The best precaution, however, is vaocination, and it should not be we- glected, as the smaull-pox scourge is liable to find its way into all varts of the United States from Canada, where it has beon prevailing to such a fearful extent for soveral months, Tur discharge of the Rock Springs rcon River grand jury seemis to hao resulted from a showing of faots which could have brought about no other vosult.

Both sides pro tend to have knowledge of vast expendi- tures of money by theiv opponents and of impending eleventh hour attacks on the character of candidates, which ave to be sprung with damaging effect on the eve of the election. It is claimed that MeLean has issued a seeret civeul; which was havdly dey on the paper be fore thousands of others intended to block its eflect were rushed from the press by the republican committeemen.

IHe threw his money abroad with a lavish hand and laid in others the foundations for fortunes which he found himself unable to construet and perpetu- ate for himsclf. For several years the best known and most eagerly sought-af- ter railway king in the country, he sank completely out of sight after the comple- tion of tho Union Paci and for ten e 1t only an occasional mention of his namein the public press has kept alive the fading memory of his achieve- ments.

Englishmen who have been courageous enough to pro have been sadly ostra- cised for their independence. The most seandalous feature of Vietoria’s moncy making schemes has been her steadily pursued policy of grabbing for hor family all the profitable sinccures upon .which she could put her hands.

Chicago's are aleeady open, twenty-five in number, and the number is to be increased beforo the 1son closes. Omaha should have at least three good evening schools in her admirable school system.
