The New Com However much TWEEN
tycent pieces may be necessary for use
in the Eastern States, their circulation in
Nevada will work harm rather than good
for they will have to be thrown out of
circulation, or, like the dime, accepted
for five cents more than their value. To
make this coinage useful in Nevada, ii
will be necessary to issue five-cent pieces
and the sooner our people get down TO
that ininitesimal coin the better Our
dealers in furnishing goods sell box Of
collars for twenty Ave cents that cost
them probably twenty-five and halt
cents. A customer throwing down a
twenty-cent piece in ppym-nt for box,
would be apt to get away with the goods,
but it is not right, and he will have to
pay for it in something else. We see no
reason why the same coin which passes
current In San Francisco should not be
circulated here. A dime is the price OF
an article and the purchaser throws a
half dollar down: in change he gets 35
cents, thus losing five cents on the pur-
chase. Let the decimal currency be
adopted in all the States, or keep out OF
circulation these twenty-cept pieces, for
their use will prove detrimental to both
seller and purchaser. Figure up the
money made by business men for the
iacS OF hve-cent pieces, and the amount
would astonish the brightest financier;
especially has thisreference to those who
sell goods in small quantities, as peanut
and candy dealers. Although silver.

TIE EUROPEAN SITUATION.

On us, as Americans. there is grain
Of comfort in the thought that, though
casually troubled by domestic dissens-
ions, there Ia no real or permanent cause
for alarm. Yet made up as we are OF
such homogeneous materials, the extra
ordinary attitude OF the great European
powers can not but DO of interest to us,
if in no closer relative position than that
Of bystanders or lookers-on. Prussia.
France, England, Russia and Austria are
all arming and concentrating, to an I'M
precedented degree, and the famous
"balancc OF power" that has been the aim
Of European diplomats since 1915. is now
likely to preponderate to the strongest
side. Sadowa in 1866 and Sedan in 1870
gave to the Germans. as a nation, and
the Prussians. as people. the foremost
rank in Continental Europe. The rapid
recovery Of France from her financial
position. consequent upon the disastrous
campaign Of 1870, have excited the fears
and suspicious OF the Pfussian Govern
ment, and nothing but subtle diplomacy
and the interference of England and
Russia have averted an open rupture
II has been suggested by the thinking
minds that the keeping Of an immense
standing army by rival nations is but a
poor way OF preserving peaceful equi-
librium; and so ii Is, for If Prussia has
100, 900 armed men aud France LOO
900, the position Of the two countries to-
ward each other is as IL to IL, not TAX
ing into consideration the enormous
amount of dead labor and capital as rep
resented in this great force. As peo'
pie, we have reason to be thankful that
we can devote our energies to the more
peaceful and salutary work of develop
ing and furthtring the great and grow
ing interests and industries of our coun-
try. The past in our interest may serve
as a criterion of the future, and IA We

contingencies may arise will be bravely
met and dealt with in q manner calcu
lated to insure respect and safety to tn

IT uow seems to be 10 order for oil
the papers Of the state to be express
ing their views upon the various ques-
lions to be acted upon by the coming
constitutional Convention. II is, prob
sbly, through the medium OF the
press that the members of that body
can be the best able to judge Of the
wishes and opinions Of the people. Tor
the reason that 10 these days the news
papers are sure to advocate Whatever
the popular sentiment demands.
Of course, the great interests Of
Western Nebraska consists in increased
representation and more District
Courts. These two things have been
q standing cause Of complaint Tor
years, and have been thoroughly dis
cusred. But there are some matters
which may appear to be Ct minor im
portance, and yet have . great bearing
upon the general interests Of the
State.
The new Consultation should pro
vide for u session Of the Legislature
lex. winter. either by calling the pres
ent Legislature together, or BY order
ing a new election the coming fall.
The last would be preferable for many
reasons net necessary to enumerate
here. The question Of annual or b.
cupial sessions can best be left to the
Legislature, itself. Il is seldom that
the attractions of q legislative career
IRE sufficient to protract . session to
su inordiuste length.
We think it would be the grossest
Lind of injustice, We might say 10
gratitude, to Gust the present State
officials after serving nj year, when
they were elected for two years. They
have one and all been tried and found
worthy, and should be allowed to serve
out ,h,h full time. The State officials
should receive q salary adequate to the
nature of their services and the digni.
Of the position they occupy. Surely,
the laburer is worthy Of his hire.
The Constitution should provide
some method by which it can be more
easily revised or amended. The dis
tineui>hing fan!t Of the present Con
stituticn is that the slightest changs
ar amendment requires as much cir
cu~mlocution as the formation Of new
