Nebraska Farmers Interested.

The Omaha Bees Washington dis
patches recently told of the introduce
tion in the senate by Senator Thurston
of a letter from NJ. c. Harrington of
North Platte on the subject of Il tariff
imposed on hay. Mr.. Harrington
writes that paper on the topic as fol-
lows:
/ observe that nothing is ever said in the
great daily or weekly papers in this state re-
gardlng the Importance or value OF the I'M
mense hay crop that grows every year IN
Nebraska. Many appear to lose sight of the
fact That this is one of the greatest hay pro-
ducng states in the union and thousands of
year, remaining prey to the terrible prairie
fires. If the people of Nebraska only knew
it they could make the hay crop of Nebraska
what the cotton crop is to Louisiana.
During the year 1850 we shipped from Lin
coin county to Chicago, Detroit and even rs
far east as Buffalo and Pittsburg. loo cars
of our prairie hay. We got into those markets
on account of the drOuth in the central states
and Canada, which reduced the quantity
raised there. also the amount imported from
Canada. The railroads have made reason
ably low rates on hay from western Nebraska
to Chicago, and last year we demonstrated
that our upland prairie hay was better than
that raised i'll Iowa Kansas. Minnesota or
Illinois. We were right in competition with
hay from all those states in the Chicago
markets last year and all the commission
merchants quoted our hay at from 30 cents to
81 !, ton higher than any hay on the market.
1t was great pleasure to the writer in
December. 1885. to see samples of Nebraska
upland prairie hay on the tables of the com
mission men in the board of trade quoted and
selling at higher price than the product OF
the states before mentioned. What we want
is a higher tariff that will eventually shut
out all Canadian hay from the great cities of
the east and let the farmers and land owners,
laborng men and merchants. all equally in
tereSted, share i'll the profit from the Ne
braska product If we have II sure market
every year thousands of acres OF hay land
now neglected will he developed and the hay
will bring in an immense revenue.
Please give the hay question Il little atten
tion in your great paper and urge congress in
the matter OF protection.

Great Mental Eeats.

Hortensius, the great Roman lawyer
and orator, had a memory of extraor-
binary scope and tenacity. After COM
posing a speech or oration he could
repeat it word for word, exactly as
ne had prepared it. On one occasion
he went to an auction, where the busi-
ness was carried On during the entire
day, and at evening, for a wager, he
wrote down a list of the articles that
had been sold and the prices, together
with the names of the purchasers, in
the order in which the purchases had
been made.

POLICE ROUNDUP OF CROOKS.

A cat may look at q king, but a crook may not
look at q circus parade In New York. lest no
be led into temptation to steal ono Of tho
animals, or anything else lying around loose.
This point was decided long ago by Inspector
Byrnes, and the police have insisted upon it since,

when doing nothing wrong they should be let
alone to enjoy themselves as they 500 at.
Wednesday night was chosen as a favorable OPP
portunity to assert the old doctrine. and, In

new Rogues' Gallery and tho Bertillon tape

c~leverest Hawkshaws and scattered them along
the line Of the parade. with orders to pick up
every crook at sight and bring him in.
The result was that q full score Of crooks and
alleged crooks were dragged to Mulberry street
and locked up in the basement cells OF. Police
Headquarters. They were caught singly o.. In
