PAIsT of the senate executive session
on Wednesday was consumed in the
discussion Of tho nomination of Judge
VIM. u. Woods, OF Georgia, To the SUI
prcmo court. The nomination was
brought before tho senate on a favora-
BILE report from the judiciary committee,
but Immediately encountered opposit-
ion on the ground that this appoint
ment should have been given 10 n SOUTH
oFn man, and Judge Woods nominal
ton, although credited 10 Georgia, was
really additional and an excessive APP
pointmont 10 the supreme bench from
Ohio, Of which state he is u native. 1t
was also commended that Judge Wood Is
an extreme partisan, and that his APP
pointmont is Objectionable on that
ground. On tho other hand, 1t was
argued that he has been n citizen and
actual resident OF Alabama and Georgia
throughout the past fifteen years, and
that he has performed his duties rs
circuit judge for Il southern circuit
which have been satisfactory TO
tho bar and the people of tho states
therein embraced, and memorials have
been received from the bar associations
of principal southern cities, strongly
urging his confirmation for the supreme
court. Attention was also directed to
the factthat Chief Justice Waite and
Justice Swaync, although appointed
from Ohio, are natives respectively OF
Connecticut and Virginia. At the
close Of the debate u vote was taken on
the question of confirmation, and there
were only eight votes recorded against
IL. \ motion TO reconsider the
confirmation was entered, how
ever, and when after some further dis
custom, IN attempt was made TO end
the matter 10y bringing this motion TO a
final vote, tho call forycas and noes
disclosed the absence OF a quorum, and
the senate therefore adjourned, leaving
the case suspended on the motion 10 re-
consider.

Because Ga,gic'd Tread The TIo,c-Path

Cessna Is demanding popular support for
Garfield because in his youth he tread the
banks Of the raging canawl" with upturn-
ed breeches and bare and spreading toes
We would like to submit some civil inqui-
ries to Cessna. Did he run the mule or the
finances of the machine? Ifthe finances,
we will bet our bottom dollar that he spent
the most of the proceeds in contributions to
Sunday Schools and that the institution
busted" as a result OF his pious inclina-
tions. Let Cessna produce the books of the
boat or forever after hold his peace. Pious
inclinations and eminent respectability Is
the plea of avoidance put in by brotherGar-
field to shield him from popular wrath for
his robbcries Of the public treasury. He be-
longs TO the Oily Cannon class Of Christ
ians and the Schuyler Coitax class Of politi-
clans. lie is so decidedly nice that butter
won't melt in his mouth, and as 4 matter of
course the money Of the people could not
get into his breeches pockets except by some
blunler; it never went there by his consent,

Hoe to be Weather,cise.

John II. Tice, the weather prophet OF 1t.
Louis, gives the following directions TO
those who aspire TO be weatherwise:
As everybody is interested in the weather
so each one should qualify himself or her
self to read the sky, and to interpret the
meaning Of the winds, sky and clouds.
An intensely blue and serene sky indi-
Gates heavy rains and severe storms III from
twelve to forty-eght hours. \ gray, hazy
sky indicates Il continuous dry and general
IL hot weather.
4 southeast wind indicates the existence
of low barometer. if not storm center IN
the northwest The aspect of the sky and
cloud, will tell whether it means mischief
or not. An almost immediate cessation OF
rain NAV be expected as soon rs the north
west wind sets in. II matters not what the
aspects of the sky are when the west wind
sets in. fair weather will ensue from H. and
continue from three to four days. The pas
SAGE of a storm centre from the gull ana
southeastward Of our locality Is partial
exception only so far that il clears oil more
tardily.
There are really but two primary kinds
of clouds, namely (i), those that float at Il
great height above the earth's surface, and
l2dl those that float low. Those that hoat
high say from six to nine miles, are Of a
fbrous and gauzy structure; they are hence
called cirrus. that is. hair OF tuit clouds
The clouds that form in the lower strata OF
the atmosphere, say from one to three miles
above the earth, are Irregular in structure,
and of more or less noduiar form. They
are called the cumulus, that j., the heap or
pile cloud.
While the cirrus remairs nebular IN
structure and inli.tinctly defined against
the sky no rain need be expected. Under
the low barometer, however, they develope
by accrction, become smooth and compact
in structure and much enlarged in volume.
They now sink lower and become sharply
defined against the blue sky. Rain may be
now expected, especially if they unite with
tic cumulus forming the nimbus or ram
cloud. If the cirrus. instead Of forming
the nimbus, rcasccnd., it dissiPatcs, and nc
rain need be expected until it lowers again
which generally is in twcnty-iour hours.

T,co Sides to the Picture.

4 Western correspondent Of the Chicago
Tribune describes in glowing language the
wonderful fertility Of the farming lands Of
Nebraska. The soil is free from stone, We
are told, often to depth Of fifty feet. IL
retains moisture for very long time, no
matter hOW long and severe the drought.
The farmer has none Of the disadvantages
Of climate rocks, hills and timber 10 con-
tend with common 10 other States and the
writer asks Why people will content them
selves With working hard 10 ekeOu Ewing
on the stony soil, Of the far East when, with
half the time and labor, they might live in
comfort in Nebraska. This Is one side ~
the tapestry; now let W turn 20 the other.
Nebraska Is the great focus Of those deyasta-
ting storms that yearly spread destruction
far and wide. Nebraska has 40 timber Of
consequence, except on the Platte River.
Nebraska has no other water course Of con-
sequence and ha- to depend on wells. Ne
braska l. subject 10 be oyerTun with locusts.
Finally. all lumber for building and fencing,
where fencing is done, Is brought from long
distances and sells at long prices. Fuel il
scarce; the nearest coal is in Wyoming; the
nearest firewoOd on the Platte, and last year,
outside the line Of railroads, Nebraska far
mers were burning their corn for fuel.
