DISHONEST PRAcrlSES.

Dishonesty is almost as common as
its opposite. Tha. giving is better
than receiving is 90 exploded idea With
many. They are willing TO receive
continually, while they are unwilling
to give even that which honor requires
from tnSm. snd which the law will
compel Men take advantage Of all
manner of opportunities and pretexts
to avoid payment of their Debts. If
they can get out of the place leaving
behind their debts they are in m st
cases only too glad to do it, or If they
can get up a quarrel with their credi-
tor they will make it an excuse for not
paying him. The petty tnaneuvsrs Of
the individual who owes and doesn't
pay are innumerable. and in every
case. are contemplate. Some of the
poorest payers are among the best col
lectors, aud are merciless when after
another who is obligated to them.
Some men are brazen. faced about it,
and declare outright they will not pay.
Others are pleasant and oily tongued'
and have excuses to offer and postpone
ments to ask. Still third kind .skolk;
turning down corners, crossing the
streets and resorting to all such artifoes
to keep out Of speaking distance with
those to whom they are indebted. The,
fair and square man, who doesn't wait
to be run after. and who pays as though
it were matter of busintss md ddty,
If not OF actual pleasure. ~ hard to be
found. but when he is found is appre-
cia.ed accordingly. Every town has .
few such. bnt. be it said with sorrow.
the number Of the other kind is in On
immense majority. In this nineteenth
century we have schools and instruction
OF every imaginable kind. except those
having for their leading object the in-
cuieation upon the youthful mind Of
business honor and honesty. Someone
will do his race genuine service who
will inangurate course of instruction

into our midst that vile Mongolian civiltzaf
tion whose Introduction Into the one State OF

Resolced, That it should be our aim to pF-

cnuELrY TO ANIMALS.

Injuries Inflicted by Barbea Wire
fence
Omaha Republican.
The Republican Is informed upon
authority that the veterinary surgeons,
Drs. Ayres and Chambers, have recent
ly had under their care q very valuable
horse which was most cruelty and out
rageously wounded and lacerated by
coming in contact with a barbed wire
fence in this county. One cut alone
extended from his neck along his side
TO his tail, and he had numerous other
wounds from six to eighteen inches in
various parts Of his body and legs. The
surgeons were actually compelled TO
take about i've hundred stitches in
sewing up these cuts. Messrs. Ayres
and Chambers, rs our informant states,
have had about forty horses wounded
in this way, but not quite so severely,
by barbed wire fences during the last
half year.
1t seems as IL this kind OF fence Is n
barbarous invention, and 1t is very
likely that Dr.. Miller, president Of the
Nebraska society for the prevention Of
cruelty to animals, will bring the mat
ter before the society for consideration
and action.
