The Democracy Of NamahaC County,
by its owner or spokesman, we scarce
" know which, generously offer the
entire vote Of the party to whomsOever
may bolt the action Of the Republican
Convention. This may not be very
complimentary to the individual Dem
ocrat, yet it is in keeping with the
past action Of the party, This offer to
wholesale the vote Of every man who
claims to be q Democrat, may be very
convenient for Calhoun, jameson and
Plasters, because they run the ma
chine; but It must certainly be humil-
itating 20 many others we could mem
ton, who will have to walk up and
deliver the ballot which confirms the
sale. Still we ought not to find fault,
if they don't. We pity the men and
deplore the system which demands
such sRbserveney from its followers.
One reason why jameson left the old
anti-slavery standard, was because
such men would think and act for
themselves, and cared little for lead
ers, butfollOwed them when rightand
deposedt hem when obstinately wrong.
It remains to be seen whether this
bargain can be fully cOnsummated or
not. The Democracy of Brownville

+. III. ID. HUNT, Of Hillsdale, has
left in this Office a large ear of yellow
dent corn, containing eighteen rows
of solid corn, running fourteen inches
from the butt to the top. This is only
a fair sample Of the large c~ornields
which are to be found all through
Nebraska. The acreage planted this
year is large, and the yield is believed
to be much larger than ever before.
The number of bushels of corn which
Nemaha, johnson, Gage, Pawnee and
Richardson Counties will have for
transportation, is now estimated at
over 1000, 900. Most of it is now be-
yOnd the harm of frost, and there is
none that wants more than two
weeks Of fair weather. How much Of
his immense yield is Brownville pre-
pared to handler She can handle as
much Of it as she viii, but preparation
is necessary. BY activity early COM
'henced, and a generous policy to-
wards the producer, the grain grown
this summer viii find Brownsville its
best market. Our merchants should
see to it that such a wise policy is
adopted as will attract a large bulk of
the grain to this depot for shipment.
The present storage, though ample
for ali past requirements, will not be-
gin to be sufficient forthe wants of the
coming year.

Last week you called the attention
Of your readers to the published list
Of Text Books, selected BY the State
superintendent, for use throughout
the State.
We believe chat Mr.. Beals acts from
no unworthy motive. We give no ere
dence to reports of money paid BY
publishers and received by MI. Beals.
But Il is not improbable That other
prrties have endeavored to sell the
school interests Of the State, to differ
ent publishing houses. Be this as it
may, we leave those persons to the
tender mercy Of the publishers.
Next year the people will elect a
State Superintendent to serve for four
years. AT our coming election the
people viii elect County Superinten-
dents to serve two years. We learn
that Mr.. BeaIs, in making up his list,
has consulted neither Teachers nor
County superintendent. Thisis not
right. Our Teachers are the proper
persons to select text books. We no
Of no better way to settle the book
question than this,-let each Board Of
Directors consult with their several
Teachers; let the Teachers, If thought
best, consult with County Superinten-
dents and then introduce the books
which they consider best adapted to
their wants. These books can be tested
during the coming school year. After
the election Of the State Superinten-
dent, who is TO serve four years, q
recommendation can be made that
will meet the wants and wishes Of our
schools, teachers and parents through
out the State.
We doubt If State uniformity can be
secured in any way. The law imposes
no penalty for refusing to obey the
dictations Of the State Superintend-
ent. We say to directors, get the best
books you can. DonOt look for cheap
ness, but for decided merit. Consult
your teachers; and, since they have
the work to do, give them books that
they can best work with. A good
teacher viii not make a failure with
any book. But there is a great differ
ence in books. We do not believe
that any neman, however learned he
may be, can properly select books for
schools he has never seen, and whose
teachers be has never consulted.
We understand that new books were
put into your city schools during the
last school year. We are informed
that those books were well received,
and that children, parents, and teach
ers alike are pleased with them. We
feel free to say that it is due to Prof.
to let his work stand, and if not
complete, to completed it. This course
we have reason to think viii save
money and prevent trouble.
We work for no publishing house.
We have no selfish end to secure. We
do not want our people to be compelled
to purchase new books when they
don't want them. Let all school dis
tricts choose the books best adapted to
the wants of their schools. We mean
no d~isrespect to MI. Beals. We re-
gard his action as uncalled for at this
time; therefore we say to all con-
cerned, do the best you can for your
schools, and all will be well.
