THE OMAHA DAILY BEE Onr Now Departure—The Sunday Bee. | The advent of the OMana is @ natural sequence to the rapid growth of Omaha and Nebraska. Itis an enter prise which had become a necessity for irst and foremost was the fact that as the leading metropolitan daily of this section, the Bee could no longer withstand the pressure from every quarter for a seven day paper. This de mand was made almost imperative since Sunday trains have become general on all through lines in Towa and Nel Another reason for this departure was the fact that the ble letter: which are the great res of the New York-Sunday Herald, w wired to the Bre Ss y night, but could not be published by us until Monday morning. The Sunday editions of the Chicago Z'ribune and St. Louis Globe-Democrat, containing the Herald cable letters, reach Omaha Monday morn- ing, and thus really deprived us of the fuil benefit of our costly enterprise. The Suspay Ber will give our patrons twenty-four hours the start of Chicago and St. Louis on foreign news. What was true of the cable letters also true of other important and interest- ing news, which will now reach our sub- scribers in and out of the clty one day sooner than it could through Monday’s edition. Last, but not least, is the advantage to be derived by our advertising patrons from an edition that starts out with fully 18,000 circulation, and promises to reach 15,000 within less than ninety days. Our decision to publish a Sunday edi- tion wasreached immediately after bagin- ning the New York Herald special cable service. The changes and projected improvements of other Omuha newspa- pers did not influence our course any more than they did our purchase of a web-perfecting press more than twelve months ago. This fast press was not hought for show or to boom the circula- tion. We had the circulation, and weo needed the press. For the same reason the Ber publishing company entered into a contract on the 15th of March, 1886, for a second perfecting press, which 18 now being built, and is to be shipped from New York under that contract by the last of this month. With two per- fecting presses, capable of turning out 80,000 eight-page papers or 60,000 four- page papers every hour, the Beg will be equipped as completely as any daily west of Chieago, not excepting the great dail- ies of San I S several reasons, F new Rising From the Ranks. The army board for the examination of candidates for promotion from the ranks of the army will meet at Fortress Monroe to-morrow. Nine non-commissioned officers who have successfully passed the preliminary examinations for advance- ment to second licutenants will appear before it. The flnal board will either rat- ify or reverse the findings of the first boards. All candidates who pass will ve- cewve certificates for commussions as soon as vacancies occur for them. Many jarmy oflicers secretly protest aguinst selections from the ranks as tend- ing to lower the tone of the servico, and insist that West Point should be the only ayenue leading to a com- mission, Itis remarked that a number who hold this view once wore the stripes of non-commissioned oflicers and won the bars of a lieutenant by efliclent ser- vice in the ranks. The public who support the army will not agree with the gentlomen. Educated soldiers arc ot course a neecssity, but ed- ucated soldiers can be secured with the added experience of military service if proper inducements are offered faithful and intelligent privates to rise to a com- mission. Such an incentive to studious ambition will do much to elevate the rank and file- It will aiso help to disa- buse the public of the idea which foolish young oflicers and cranky martinets have fostered, that the United States army i an aristocracy within a republic and that brass buttons and epauicttes necessarily carry with them some peculiar social virtue which raises their possessors over the heads of the civilian world, The closer our army is brought into contact and sympathy with the dem- ocracy of which it is the servant and whose interests it is sworn to defend, the more eflicient it is likely to prove when called into action by some social or inter- national crisis in which the beart of the people is vitally interested. There should be no eurtailment of the privilege of rising from the ranks, An intelligent and manly first sergeant with a good common school education is a more valu- able component of army organization than half a dozen younglieutenants fresh from Flirtation Walk, Physical Education For Girls. There has rocently been issued by the Associution of Collegiate Alumnms, com- posed of women representing minc col- leges, u cireular setting forth the views of the association, founded of coursc upon careful study and extended experience, respecting the causes of the low standard of health among women in and after col- lege life, and the remedial conditions tlat are demanded. The common lack of physical training and the disregard of the laws of Lealth among girls are respousi- ble for the low standard of vitality ana energy which characterize so many of them in after lite, and the duty of cor- recting these deficiencies or omissions devolves upon parents, for, as the cireu- lar says: ‘At sixteen it is often too late to undo all the mistakes mads during the most important years of a girl's life.” The evils among school girls which shonld command the eareful attention of parents are enumerated as follows: So- cial dissipation and excitement, which is neither amusement nor reereation; ha- bitual loss of sufficient and healthy sleep ; irregularity and haste in taxing food, the use of confectionery in the evening, and the omission of breakfast; light, heavy and insuflicient clothing, which increases the tendenty to consumption and spinal dis- eases; the lack of sullicient outdoor exer- cise; excessive overwork in study, aud ignorance of the simplest laws of physi- ology and hygicne. There canbe no doubt that as to nincty-seven girls in every hundred living in ecities and be- longing to the class from which college students are drawn, every one of these seven faults, or, as the circular more cor- reotly calls them, evils, are applicable, and with many, doubtiess, some of them have from long habit and indulgence be- come 80 fixed as to be irremovable. In 80 far as the existence of any of these ob- staoles to the developwent of the highest forie of physical womanbood is due to NDAY Beg | | that they will ever be removed. the demands of society and the requirc: ments of fashion, it may as well be owned that there is little ground of hope When- ever womankind shall refuse to longer bow to these demands then will the mil- lenfum be at hand. But some of the enumerated ovils which heset our girls may be remedied without making war upon fashion, or disregarding social dicta, and every fathor and mother of daugh ters should esteem it a most essential part of daly duty--quite as important, indeed, as making provision for the daily food--t0 see that the girls are not per; L mitted to fall under the evils specitied Adequate | which are so easily avoided. Jiours of sleep, prover exeret aularity and right methods in eating, ave matters within the undisputed scope of parental surveillance, and ought to be made an imperative part of the every-day domestic t of the parent, not under any circum- stances to be omitted. If obsi nee of a correct system with respect to these conditions to a sound and healthy body is begun at an early age and strictly ad- hered to, attention to them will become a habit that not even the dissipations of socicty or the demands of fashion will be able to wholly uproot. Addressing the women studying in col- leges, the Association Alumnwm counsel them to bear in mind the fact that the best intellectual results carnot be ob- tained without perfect physical health, that they shall maintain a constant watch over their habits as regards sleep, food, dress, exercise, cte., aud that they should form athletic societies for the pro- motion of wholesome exercise. It is ju- diciously suggested that what is good for women in college must also be good for girls in preparatory schools, aud un- doubtedly the time is at hand when phys- ical training in the senools will go hand in hand with intellectual culture. The views of educators with respect to the physical requirements of students has made very great progress within the past few years, and with such strong and able champions of physical education as Professor Richards, of Yale college, advocating 1t there is no danger that these views will not in time generally prevail. There is no argument applying to the physical culture of men, as a con- dition to their intellectual development, that does not apply with equal force to women, and this fact needs to be im- pressed both upon parents and teachers, to do which appears to be the objeet of the cireular of the Association of Colle- giate Alumn:e Another Bridg: ‘Thers are renewed rumors of another bridge, which is to span the Missouri at Omuha and unite it with the Towa shore. We trust the report may turn out to be well founded. Such a bridge, open to carriages and passengers, and fit to sup- port a cable line service would be a great stimulus to the growth of both Omaha and Council Blufls, It would afford the farmers of western Lowa a ready market for their produets and would bring to the peovle of Omaha cheaper and better garden produce fresh from the truck furmers. It would encourage more fre- quent intercourse between our citizefis and those of Councit Bluffs. In addition, it would doubtless give a boom to cheap residence property in the Blufls and offer many inducements for the building up of homes by those who could live in Council Blufls and still do bnsiness in Omaha. : “The day of cut-throat rivalry between the two cities ought to have passed away. Ench has its own field which it i3 well able to occupy without attempting to build itself up by pulling down the other. The time will come when the good peo- ple of both cities will laugh good- naturedly over the foolish bickerings and Jjealousies of the past. By all means let us have the bridge. Take Pain Killer. The railrogue democratic organ of Omaha is suflering from a severe attack of pain in the bowels. Honestdemocrats throughout Nebraska who refuse to fol- low the political dictation of the demo- cratic tin can of corporate monopolies are making their views on the coming canvas very clear. They decline in ad- vance to pledge themselves to train under the shysters and political attorneys of tho allied corporations, even 1f the band does play the tune of “‘Andy Jackson’ and the dizeordant bugles sound the charge of ‘“‘straight democracy.” They are willing to be democrats “first, last and all the time” where such devotion to party does not imply & blind compliance with the wishes of party tricksters and political mountebanks who arve pulling thoe strings in the interests of thewr rail- road masters. Dr. Miller’s substitute has much to learn about the real sentiments of Nebraska democrats. Ho has had sev- eral lessons already n trying to regulate Douglas county and Omaha oit; affairs without the support of his party. He is likely to make a few more interesting discoveries before many more moons wax and wane. The gripes from which he is now doubled up will be allayed by a liberal dose of Paun killer later in the season. E—— Mind Cures and “Ohristian Science.” The Mind Cure and*'Ohristian Science” frenzy has reached the west and attacked with considerable violence a large num- ber of victims in our neighborhood. “‘Authentionted cases” of nuraculous cures of all olasses of complaints are numerous. The faith-filled public is in- formcd that disease has at last found a congueror, that the era of pills, plasters, and paregoric has had its day, and that its place is to be taken by one of prayers, precept and passes. The Influence of mind on mind and the veflex action of mind on matter are to be invoked to sup- plant the phavmacopeia and the surgeon’s knife. The mfluence of mind on mind and of mind on body have long been admitted. Mesmerism, with its singular phenomena, is now conceded to bave & physical basis of facts, which can be demonstrated by seientific investigation. Inagination has always been adwitted to exercise a power- ful influence in arresting disease. Bread pills and water-colored potions, as every physician knows have cured many a pa- tient, The will tolive has saved hundreds from impending death. The body is a curious compound of servant and muster. and the operations of the brain are not limited to the control of voluntary changes in . the tissues. This much may be adwitted, and it is suficient to account for wany of the cures of the Christian Scientists. Butno influence of mind or body can eliminate & matignant palady besond the | teach of medical refnelties. No science, | however named, can step in and preclude the necessity of amputaging a limb where bone and tiss rtéry land nerve, are a mangled mass, Notimfluence ealled into | activity by faith ean restore to health the | consumptive in the kast stages of the dis- enso of raise 1o his feet the pallid vietim of cholera as he writheyin the agonizing cramps of the malady, Hysterical women may be raised to cheerfulness, sufte from imaginary fies can doubtless be convinced of the' fabt that they are well, even diseases dependent on abnor: mal mental conditions may be dissipated by the removal of the conditions. But these are the limits of mind cures and faith cures beyond w likely to pass. So fa or psychical phenomena have been pre- sented by the adherents of the Chris scientists which need the introduction of the supernatural to account for their presence. Two American N Attention in hterary has re- cently been directed to two notable works of fiction, each the production of an American writer and each remarkable for qualities which are chicfly lacking in the other. The ono 1s scholarly and brilliant, the other simple and natural. The first is the product of a college pro- fessor, the other comes from the pen of a writer whose schooling was principally gained on a small Nebraska paper. Dif- fering widely in construction, in method and in motives, the very difference and dissimilarity between Hardy's “Wind of Destiny” and E. W, Howe's “A Moon- light Boy" at onco compel attention and invite comparison. Mr. Hardy is well known as an author who leaped from obseurity to fame by the tion of “‘But Yet a Woman" two go. That powerful sto of woman’s love and woman's sacrifice, sparkling with brilliauts of wit, filled with rare touches of pathos and studded with gems of philosophy, is well known to most readers who have mar! course of the best fiction. His pre: work follows different lines. It is less novel than a monologue. There is neither hero or heroine, plot nor design. The charactors drift aimlessly on the sea of life amid tempestuous waves and a cloud-filled sky. Fate, as blind as that of the old Greek tragedics, impels one to suicide, another to unrequited love, while a single figure reaches a happy port. The book is a story ot suflering, but there is left after all less impression story or character th of the author. It lacks sharpne line and breadth of light to cont the depth of shadow. Still it is strong, 1, forceful. Dhe key on which it d—a minor ong, it is true—is well sustained. There ‘are pictures of landscape, full of rich and artistic color- ing, brilliant epigrams, maxims and apothegms, and touches of character an- alysis which render the volume a book that will be read with profit and remem- bered with pleasure. N Mr. Ed Howe's ““A Moonlight Boy” will add to the reputation which he gained by the vublication of his “Story of a Country Towu.’”y As Mr. Hardy's forte seems to lie in the dircetion of sub- Jective fiction, Mr. Howe's undoubtedly si in that of objective. He is a master of homely pathos, finding his material in lowly and out of the way places, and nowhere so touching and fas- cinating as when he narrates *‘the short and simple annals of the poor.” Tn his latest volume Mr. Howe gives his read- ers a series of remarkable ch ter sketches in Kansas and humorous situa- tions in a New York newspaper oflice. The volume teems with quaint portraits and shows an insight into human nature and a gift of imagination and sustained strength, which prove the author to be a most successful writer of fiction. Like Corot and Millet, whose paintings dealt largely with peasant life. and whose art- 15t hands by a few deft touches filled in the homely dresses, strong-lined faces and rough surroundings of field and country hfe, Mr. Howe pictures the work-a-day world of our common peo- ple. There is no attempt to analyze emo- tions or to dissect character: They are sketched in bold lines, and the reader recognizes them promptly and feels their presence. The charm of the author is his fidelity to nature, and his power of touching the fountains of feeling com- mon to all. These combine to give a genuinely poetical atmosphere to his writings. Cuuren Howe assures the temperance people that they must take his record as the guarantee of what he will do in the future for the cause of prohibition, Church introduced a prohibition bill nearly four years ago, to divert attention from railroad regulation and several Jobs he had in hand, At the last session Church introduced a bill to make gam bling a felony, but when the Omaha gan{ blers contributed about $1,000 in cool cash he lost interest (and principle) in the measure, Church has a record with as many streaks in ic as Jacob's lambs, which astonished his father-in-law so much. His bills to improve the public morals are gotten up for revenue only. POLITIOAL POINTS, Ex-Governor Gear, of 0w, has kindly ex- pressed a willingness 1o 0 to congress.

We are all workingmen, That is, all who are pseful to the world and to man- kind, including ourselves and families, We all desire to better our condition. Permit one who has boen a constant laborer for nearly half a century to say a few words that come from a heart that is a home for good intentions, if nothing more. If you will unite not to defy laws and to consolidate against you all who be- lieve in law and order; if you will unite to vote for men who believe in new laws, and who know what laws can be made that will not be unconstitutional, you can soon benefit the country and yoursclves. The moment you unite to advance the interests of one body of men above an- other--the moment you begin a war upon the lawful rights of any citizen or cor- poration—that moment’ you draw upon yourselves the enmity of all who believe in law but who do not deny the right to peaceably assemble and organize and speak for a redress of grievances or the right to make new laws. The vote of workingmen united to the support of any person or party in sym- pathy with ihe great cause” of mun against monopoly is suflicient to anuihi- late all bad, unjust laws, or laws that have been outgrown, and to make new aws that are up with the times Instead of standing to curse, to throw stones, to mutilate ears, wagons, houscs and business, why not accept imposed conditions till you can bring organized strength to bear to the making of new laws, taking care the while that you de- mand no more than by your words and actions you can prevail upon the body public to give. Beneficial laws are not driven through by force. Riots and bloody revolutions result in the killing, wounding and im- poverishment of more or less of the par- ticipators. After them, reason is called in, and good results follow reason and reasonable demand, These strikes that stop travel and busi- ness, to the incommoding and ruination of innocent parties, embitter thousands while only scores are pleased. Arrogunt assumption und demands that war against the actual rights of others are ot ths politic weapons that bring success, The right to quit work when the service contract has expired oue that belongs to every person. The vight to rob a berson of wages, or of property, or of the fruits of a long- cared-for business that has grown from care, attention and honest dealing does not belong to any person, and it is the duty as well as the pleasure of the gen- oral public to demand the punishment of each aud every one who robs another or who injures another, Organize to use the ballot. no monopoly, no usurer, etc., can stand against that God-given weapon. It is noiseless, but most terribly eficcuve. No man INTHE FIELD OF LITERATURE Oarnagie’s “Triumphant Democracy; or, Tifty Years’ March of the Republic.' “LAND QUESTION" IN AMERICA. An Able Treatise by a Japanese- English Scholar—Notes on Other Now Publi- cations, Carnagie’s Telumphant Democrac, We have received from Charles Serib- nor's Sons, publishers, New York, one of the most interesting books of the day. It is Andrew Carnegic's “Trinvmphant De mocr L or Fifty Years' March of the Republie.!” This book is full of ‘‘mea from beginning to end. The ext which havebeen publiched by the lead- ing newspapers have given the people a very good idea of what the volume con tains. Mr. Carnegie's cpening chapter is entitled ““The Republic.”” It begins with the striking sentence: ‘“The old nations of the earth creep on at a snail's pace; tho Republio thunders past with the rush of the express.”” The United States, the growth of a single century, liag, says Mr. Carnegie, reached the fore- most rank nations, and is destined soon to out-dis- tance all others in the race. In the succeeding chapters he diseusses the American people, cities and towns, conditions of life, occupations, educa- tion, religion, pauperi agriculture, manufactures, mining, trade and com merce, railways and waterways, art and musie, literature, the federal constitu- tion, foreign affairs, the government's non-political work anda the national balance sheet. He has written his story of the republic in an intelligent und at tractive style, and a vein of eloquence runs entirely through it. There is not a dry page in the book. The facts, figures, and statistios are ed in clegant hiter- ary garb, inv the attention and courtship of the reader. In the hands of some writers the material used by Mr. Carnagie would have been presented in a dry and uninteresting manner, and would have attracted little or no atten- tion and less comment. Mr. Carnagie has demonstrated that in the matter of moulding dry statisties into a beautitul literary plcture, he is an artist of high degre An by among g y person who reads “Triumphant mocriey will exclaim at the finish: am proud that [am an Amerlean)’ Mr. Carna a Scotchman by birth, but an American by adoption, He is proud of his adopted country, and his adopted count proud of him. His dedication of “Triumphant Democ: racy"” is as follows: To the Beloved Republic under whose equal laws T am made the peer of any man, althouxh denied volitieal eqt ¥ by my native land iente this book | ( with an Intensity of gratitude and admivaiion which the ve born citizen can neither feel nor understand. ‘L1 ant Democracy, s th author says, may truly be re s abo ‘‘the tribute of a i - ful and grateful adopted son to the coun- try which has removed the stigma of y 1 his native land saw pr per to impress upon him, in the estima- tion of its great laws as well as in hi own estimation (much the more impo tant consideration,) the peer of any human being who draws the breath of life, be he pope, kaiser, yriest or king— hencoforth the subject of noman, but a freo man, a citzen!” That Mr. Carnagie, who is one of the greatest manufacturers in this countr; should jind time amid all his various bu ness duties to write such a work as this, as well asto do other literary labor, is what surprises us, IHe s indeed a man of wonderful resources.

C. Weld, and “In nee," by Charles Du Hays, is the double title of an instructive volume just issued by the O, Judd Publishing company of New York. The work of M, Du Hays, published in 1868, has been of invaluable service to the draft horse production of this coun- try. Stimulateda by it, many have be- come breeders, and many fine horses have been imported. The breed shows itself admirably adapted to this conti- nent and to the needs of our agriculturo and street traflic Edition after edition of “The Percheron Horse'’ has been printed, and the present one is preceded by a brief history of the introduction of the breed into this country, Ghe form)a tion of the American ercheron Horse Breeders' assoc headquarters at Chi with the French Pe gother with the publi book, of which several volumes have al- r"\d? been issued, marks an spoch in the history of the b .

Though proverbially “tho noblest of animals,” the horse becomes of value to man only as he is subdued, trained, and edueated. Under proper treatment and management he becomes tractable, inj telligent, seryiceable, and devoted to his master. The nuthor of this volume has established a world-wide reputation for truning and oducating horses, Long practice and experience have 1 methods to such a o of pe tion as to not only challenge the admiration, but to command the r d and gratitude, of all lovers of horses.
