A free poople should never allow themsolves to become indifferent to the of their freedom, and no have good reasons to cherish and he proud of the event which made them self-governing us tho American people, The declaration of independonce was the bravest and most glorious act in the world's history. It struck despotism a fatal blow, and the power of kings emporors dates from the hour in which tho bell in Independence hall announced that the had been signed. It was the work of the groeatest body of heroes and statesmen any country ever pro- duced. We of tod who are enjoyi the rich blessings which have from that act, and who ave justly proud of this great country, its mighty achieve- ments, and its intluence in the affairs of the worid, cannot afford to become careless respecting the event which marked the opening of the most wonder- ful epoch in the history of mankind, nor allow ourselves to grow indifferent to the example of the great charactars who laid the foundations of the republic. Duty, gratitude and patriotism unite in demanding that we keep in mind the origin of our freedom and frequently renew acquaintance with the lives and teachings of the illustrious men who, pledging their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor to the purpose of establishing popular government, cour- ageously challenzed the power of Great Britain, It should at least bo practicable once a year for all the people to appropriately celebrate Independence day, and it can- not be doubted that the effect of doing 50 would be to strengthen our love of country. The towns are the home of the truest patriotism. In the cities the conditions are loss favorable to the cultivation of the sentiment, which grows best and strongest where the struggle of lifo is not so sevore and exacting as in citi and where men are in more intimate in- tercourse with nature. When the union was assailed the promptest respouse to the Il for defenders came from the towns, and throughout the conflict it was not the cities that furnished most of the recruits to till up the deploted ranksof the union armies. There is earnest patriotism in the cities, but the best quality of pat- riotism, that which can ba depended upon in all circumstances, is in the towns. It is to be hoped the peopie of the Nebraska towns which have pre- parod to celebrate the coming Fourth will find the fullest possible enjoyment in the occasion and will h: no caus to regrot having performed a patriotic duty.

The fuct that justice is not so well ad- ministered in the United Statesasin England is conceded by all well informed persons, but a public acknowledgment of it from the *American bench is extremely rare. This has been done by a no less distinguished jurist than Associate Jus- tice Bradley, in the address with which he opened the new federal court of ap- ponl in New York city, and the responsi- bility he plasyd largely upon the Amer- ican bur. Having pointed out that lynch law is due solely to a failure to administor justice in the courts, Justice Bradley said there is only one wey to remedy the evil, and that s for the courts to be more firm and prompt in administering justice. Weo might profit by the example of England, he said, where we do not see, as with us, such endless controversies raised out of a partioular case and carried through all the courts. This is not the fault of the courts alone. There is ground for condemning tho bar, said Justice Brad- loy, for insisting upon minuto points nnd refusing to accopt the decisions of the court of first instance, and seoking an appeal to the court of t resort in ovory case on every trivial question. Ho thought the bar, in justice to itself, should seek to reform in this regard. The barristers of Iing- land would feel a blush of shame to carry casos before the courts of appe that are constantly pushed and ur, before the courts of appeal in this coun- try, for the reason that ‘‘there is in them a love of justice, created either by their education or thelr surcoundings, that makes them more regardful of the honor of the court and their own. He said this evil can be reformed through bar associations aud other influonces, and ought to be. Mr. Wayno Muc- Vongh made an address in defenso of the bar, but admitted that the pro- fessiont is today below the standard of 0 yours ago, and ulso that there is a different and much better practice in England, In line with this was a rebuke of the bar recently administored by the New York court of appeals, which a short time ago threatened to disbar law, who delayed just and legal senton murder by trivial appeals. In d a motion for a rehoaring of a case the court said: “The forms of law should not be used to subvert inal law of the state, Attorneys and counselors admitted to practice in the courts of this state aro undor a duty to aid in the administration of justice, and they annot consistently with this duty engagod in vexatious proceedings merely for the purpose of undermining the final judgments of the courts and defeating the behests of the law. It ought to be a subjoct of inquiry, therefore, whother thoy can thus become the allies of the oriminal olasses and the foes of orga- nized socloty without exposing thom- solves to the disciplinary powers of tho supreme court.” This is vigorous lan- guage, indicating a’keep appreciation of the evil to which it refors, Obyiously the administration of jus- tice 1n the United Stutes has become soriously impaired to draw condem: tions from such high sources and the American bar has little to be proud of in view of such criticisms, for what is truo of the bar in New York will apply ™ s for ying - | yors are not wholly to blame. everywhere. Unquestionably the law- Judges very gonerally are not so caroful as they should be to protect their courts against the tricks and expedients of attorneys. It is gratifying to note an awakening in and that it has manifested itself in places so elevated as to insure for it nd extended influence. MUNICIPAL REFORM, At its lnst mecting the Sundown club municipal As might have been expected the suggestion for bringing about a reform in our muniei- as varied and this matter, discussed reform. government o as the number of speakers. were willing to admit that reform fis necessary and all believed it possible, but th advocated his specific and as is usual in such matters there was no crystalization of sentiment upon any practical method. One gentleman favored a centraliza- tion of the municipal authority. An- other urged all citizens to attend the caucuses and help to nominate good men. Another favored universal mug- wumpery ns the best method of correct- ing the evil. He was a democrat and so a8 a gentleman who agreed with him and insisted upon absolutely divoreing the caucus from municipal politic An- other man would make a property quali- fication essential to the municipal fran- chise. He was opposed by an office- holder, who favored giving every man a voice in the city government. An over- enthusiastic member proposed that the club form a new party and go out into the battle for non-partisan, self-respect- ing, intelligent municipal ofMcers. The hobby of one speaker was municipal ownership of all franchises, and that of another higher salarios. They were not all wrong and not all right, A city cannot hops to be suc- cossfully the responsi- bility of conducting its affairs is divided among numerous co-ordinate branches. The tendency to skift responsibility and the opportunity to profit by the care- lessness of other branches of the gov- ernment induces an indifference which is costly to the city if not corrupting in influence upon the officials. If the city could select a good mayor, pay him a remunorative salary and con- fide the business affairs of tho corpora- tion soiely to his judgment, with certain roasonable strictions, the results wouid be very much better to all con- cerned. But how can a suitable man be selected to perform such delicate, im- portant and responsible duties? The caucusis here to remain. Whether it baa formal meeting of adherents to certain party principles, or a star-cham- ber meeting of political managers, in one way or the other the caucus will be influential in directing the proceedings of tho political conventions long as municipal officers olected by the people. All of abolishing it is a waste of for vate it by giving it character. Let the best citizens participate in its proceed- ings and give direction to its counsels. The chief difficulty now is that good cit- izens are too much inclined to evade theiv political duties unless selfishly in- terested in the forthcoming conventions and elections. “Mugwumpery” has never accom- plished anything of value in municipal politics. Your mugwump is usually o hobby-rider. If he nnot carry his pet scheme through the caucus and convention he loses interest in both. The mugwump lacks the staying quali- ties and the give-and-take principle necessary to success. Citizens' move- ments are spasmodic. They sometimes succeed, but they fail to materialize when the succeeding election occurs. The independent voter and mugwump are usually satisfied with a single triumph. He thinks he has possession of the fort when he has simply carried a single redoubt. 3 City ownership of the natural monop- olies of lighting the city, furnishing it with water and providing transporta- tion would perhaps improve the charac ter of our municipal officials, because it would take the power to influence rates and the actions of officials out of the hands of greedy corporations. On the other hand 11 a new city it is almost im- practicable to assume control of these concerns. Privato cnterprise meets emergencies move promptly and successfully than publie. A city grow. ing rapidly cannot wait for a vote of the people or a new levy of taxes to extend public benefits which are immediately demanded. It has its hands full of pav- i ading, sowering and similar pub- lic work. Only after these absolute- ly essential public improvements have been provided for can a city like Omuha, for instance, take upon its shoulders the management of this quasi public business, necessary to the comfort and convenience of its citizens, Tntil then private corporations will far botter serve the people. The city should resorve to itsolf the right to regulato charges and order reasonablo extensions, It should also provide for future owner ship and for a percentage of the prolits in part romuneration for valuable fran- chise Farther thun this a youug ecity can seldom hope to go. It would be contrary to the genius An institutions to confine the wmunicipal franchise to property owners. The wan who owns no real estato contributes Lis labor and skill to the commonwealth. e is as much interested in good government, volice and five protection and other in- cidonts of existence in a ocity as his wealthy neighbor, His vote should count for as much.

Wo all agroe that the co-ordinate boards of recent years are An improvement upon the old method of leaving to the city council. Yet this systom hus evils which now lead us to favor a cen- tralization of municipal power. What we need in Omaha abov ything clse is intelligence, honesty and business ability in public ofices.

Ho'v I hated tho sight, smoll and tasto of boan soup over aftor and could | scarcoly reconcile mysolf to beans oven on | the sacred soil of Virginia during the war But the sailing vessel had tts charms as woll 83 its hardships. Thero was pootry in every | motion and music in evory broezo that wafted | through tho salls. With all its sails spread, | its masts bending and creaking under tho suraln, whilo dashing through tho surging waves, the sailing vossel was an inspiring ght. The hardy and nimblo Jack tars sing- ing thoir wiord, monotonous songs whilo climbing tho masts, swinging back and forth in tho rigging, or pulling at the guys, excite as much, if not groater, vleasuro than the uni- formod band that rogalos the ocean steames passenger with operatic airs Even now as wo are passing up tho chan- nel in sight of “the Needlos” and the vor- dure-clad cliffs of the British coast, the numorous fishing smacks and packet sail ships that stud tho grayish skylino with thoir aried cauvas givo the sea an air of romanco that is entirely lacking in our ocean stoamors. Tho tourist who, ltko mysolf, makes his first trip trom America to Europe, may bs par- doned for indulging in commonplaces. It may not bo eutirely out of place, however, to con- vey somo of my improssions. At the vors outset I was forcibly struck with what scoms to mo tho sharp contrast botwoen Amorican and Kuropean ways. On entering tho Ham- burg packet company's docks at Hoboken wo wera at once transplanted upon Gorman soil. The porters, mail agonts and boat oficials wore the uniforms and caps of German d sign. Porfect order provailed, but tho hand- ling and transfer of baggage and assignmont of passengors was decidedly slow and method- ical. Two uniformed portors watking delib- orately,carried o small trunk less thau fifty yards from tho deok to the stoamer, whilo a third uniformed portor, presumably of higher rank, watked behind thom to sunorviso the job. In an American railroad denot ono big- gageman wonld havo shoulderod that trunic, carried a valiso in one hand and mado tho transfor in half the timo it took thoso threo German porters to handlo one light ieco of baggago. The difforence in methods evie dently is the koynote of the markod diffor enco in oarning in America and abroad. Our workmen aro better paid, but ono man in America does more work in a wivon time than two men do abroad. At least this is my first impression and my observations board have verified it to some extent. - O the other hand thero s also & mar differenco i favor of doliberate Buropean methods that must bo concedod by all Americans. Thero is great comfort in tho assuraaco that tho stoamship sorvice fs in the hands of mon who aro drilled to perfoc- tion in attonding to the wants of tho pas- senger and the most scrupulous caro for his luggage. The modern steamers aro modelled exprassly to combine the qualities of safoty and speod with luxury and convenionco.
