Be publican : Inasmuon as tno success of the win ter wheat crop throughout the North west this year will doubtless lead to a more extensive cultivation of that va riety during the year to come, It may be of Interest to many farmers in this State to know that the experiment has been made of sowing oats and wheat together, with a view of ob taining a winter covering for the wheat. Tho seed, In the proportion of one part of oats to two parts of wheat, were sown in the fall, and the oats sprang up qulokly and were killed by the early frost, the stalks and leaves lying on tho ground all winter, keeping the snow from blow ing away, and preventing the sun from thawing the frozen ground. In the spring tho dead oats make a good top-dressing for the growing wheat. The orop secured on the following season was reported to be excellent, while wheat on adjoining land plant ed in the usual manner waB of no value. KNITUEE, CAEP GOOD GOODS!!

Wo learn that the famous "Pina fore," will be rendered in our city, by home talent, some time this au tumn, conduoted by the highly ac complished and sweet singer, Miss Cora Gates. This will be the occosiou of a rare treat, and an overflowing houBe. In behalf of decency, public In terest and webelieve general public sentiment, The Advertiser de mands that the law relating to the sale and trafflo in intoxicating drinks in our city be either in forced or re pealed. The punishments Inflicted at the late term of oourt, on two of the transgressors has not had the salu tary effect desired, but on the contrary, since court the violations nre more bold and flagrant thau before, and drunken men are seen more frequent ly than In the year previous to the prohibition of saloons. Some persons who have better faoilitios for know ing "tho ropes" than wo have, de clare there is more whisky drank now, than there were when we had licenced saloons. We doubt this however, but we do believe when the majoriti' of tipplers got access to 11. quors they imbibo more freely and cet drunker than they would if the front doors of licensed saloons wore open and they could go in and get n snort and then go on about their business. Those who have been constant readers" of The Advertiser will remember, doubtless, that up to last winter's raid on saloono, ourposition on the liquor trade was for regulation by good laws and educating tho peo ple In a way to render the business, thoso who carried It on, the patrons, and all connected with 4lt, odious; and in this way reduce the patronage of saloons, so that those who would engage in the business could not af ford to pay the high license exacted. Wo had seen prohibition tried, on va rious occasions had fought for it vot ed for it, but always found It in vari ous waj's a failure. And as a general proposition, especially in the West, we still entertain tho same doctrine; holding that au evil which cannot be suppressed must of necessity be con trolled or regulated in the best way and by tho best laws possible to en act. Last winter, at the close of the Finch revivaljthere was, by ono of tho largest and strongest petitions, signed by nearly everybody, a de mand made upon our city council for the suppression of saloons. We, see ing in this evidence that tho people had been educated sufScientely to not want saloons, and that they would not have them, joined the movement, will ing again to test the value of a no-llcenso law instead of "high li cense." The matter Is now undergo ing that test ; and as wo hinted at the beginning of these remarks, It is proving a failure, and strengthening us in our old opicions that absolute prohibition is a failure, in this coun try, even under as.strong and favora ble auspices and backing as it had when inaugurated In Brownville. We regret that this seems to be so. We would prohibit if wo could. If we would adopt other thanprohibltion it ia because wo think something olso better for tho general and ultimate public good. Since prohibition of saloonB here has been tho law, we have been ur gent for the enforcement of tho law. Discipline, and obeyenco of law, and the prevalence of tho will.of tho ma jority, whioh we must presume all law is whore tho people govern, is a deeply rooted prlnciplo with us. And in a case where one half of the com munity violate a law, and the other half, officers and all, winking at the violation, we think that law ought to bo repealed as soon as possible, and something else, that all cau agree to enforce, substituted. We are aware of the many argu ments for prohibition, which, if not mora than half of the them were true, should be sufficient to convince every man of its good, but the people are not convinced ; or, at least, the measures adopted to carry it out are in a great degreo ignored and Inoper ative. We believe in tho practicable and operative. We say, now and dis tinctly, with the 6aloon advocates, if whisky and beer is to be sold in Brownville, letU3 make thesellers pay a license into the school fund for doing so. On the other hand, if tho law can be enforced, law and its executors shall have all. the support The Ad vertiser can give. That which is worth doing Is worth doing well ; and sedate men of money and influence, or either, should be ashamed of child's play which prohibition in Brown ville will prove to be if it is to play out before being tried even one year.

X N Jo a rs I - Marsk Block - iL - A Up to the reception of tho Su prome Court decision regarding tho election of county commissioners this fall, it had been generally understood by agreomentbetween the Republi cans and Democrats that tho entire old Board of Commissioners should bo Indorsed by both parties. Now that the question la settled .that there Is but one commissioner to elect, and that one tho successor Mr. Peery, we suggest that the agreement bo con tinued aB respecting Mr. Peery, and that both parties unite iu making him his own successor. This may seem too. much of a concession for us to make, as Mr. Peery has never been identified with tho Republican party, nevertheless as he is not much of a party man either way, and makes a good, conscientious commissioner, and as it was about concluded to give him a general indorsement, and there being no good renson why that ar rangement should now be changed, we feel that we could support him and be consistent and right. What do you mean, Bro. Tiffany? Advertiser. Just what wo said. Sheridan Post. Then you lied. Wo detect you ev ery time we notice you, Is distorting the truth and prevarication, and just so wo again expose you: The Advertiser this week pub lishes n windy article In relation to the enormous expense, as it puts it, that will bo necessarily incurred In calling an election for the removal of the county seat. Wo said not a word about "enor mous osponse," nor anything that can be so construed, or will be so oon strued. We do not believe tho ex penses of two or three elections, In cluding the erection of thirty-soven thousand dollars' worth of public buildings would be "enormous," should the people prefer a good court house when they conclude to build one; as we believe thoy will. Those figures aro scarcel y up to our idea of the "enormous." Tho following are taken from re cent Suprome Court decisions, and of much interest to the peoplo, especial ly just at this timo: The State, ox. rel. Baldwin ve. Mac Call. Application for mandamus. Writ denie'd. Opinion by Maxwell, Ch. J. 1. Section 55 of tho act concerning counties, approved March 1, 1S79, is a rc-enactment of section 9 of tho act concerning counties and county offi cers, approved February 27, 1873, Gen eral Statutes 233, and la a continua tion of that act. 2. In suoh case the effect of the re peal aud re-enactmeut Is topoutinue the uninterrupted operation of the Btatute. The act approved March 1, 1879, did not therefore, vacate the of fice of county commissioner. Joseph Brown vs. State of Nebras ka. Error from York county. Af firmed. Opinion by Lako, J. The general law relating to the li censing tboealoof intoxicating liqu ors at retail is general and applies to nil persons. No exception Is made In favor of those engaged in the palo of drugs and medicines, they being within Its operation. So it appears that wo have but one county commissioner to eloot this fall that for the 2d district. It ia scarcely creditable to one who has read the ravings of the blath erskite who edits the ring organ of Nemaha county, that it ever expeoted from any of its readers a belief that it had an "understanding."

It Is as follows, page 243, laws of 1S79: Sec. 10. A county treasurer shall be ineligible to office for more than two consecutive terms. This is nil the law there is on the subject. The question Is as to wheth er tho law is intended to apply to treasurers now holding a secoud or third term, as well as to thoso hold ing iu the future. That it was bo in tended there is no question in our mind, but whether the courts would construejit as retroactive Is doubtful. In Pawnee county Mr. Cummins, who has held the office four yeara is asking it again.
