late election in Omaha. The Democrats Fobllc Library. Can Wathena afford to have a public library so, why has some effort not been made looking to the establishment of the same. We have scores of young men whose evenings are idly spent, because they have not the means to secure acceptable reading matter, and many who have no taste for anything beyond a ten-cent novel. The establishment of a circulating library in town, would afford every one an opportunity to secure the perusal of good books at a slight expense, and build up and increase the desire for something more solid than the cheap, trashy literature of the day.

And these remarks will apply as well to country neighborhoods, as to Wathena, and other towns and villages. We hope none of our citizens will shrug their shoulders, and say, here's another project to get more of my money." We fully appreciate the efforts of many of our citizens to advance the interests of this town, and we deprecate the spirit manifested by a few persons in opposing everything that tends to promote our mutual prosperity. The cost of a library at the start, not be great, and when once commenced, the expenses equally divided between numerous patrons, will be scarcely felt by any. Public libraries are not appreciated in the est, like bargain by imagining things as pleasant as In a conersation held with uen. U-aig, charge them with foul play.

The Elections. It is'a difficult matter to give the reasons for the great falling off ia the vote of the Radical party, at the recent election in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Negro suffrage doubtless had much to do with it. That there is a decidedly large radical majority in both of these States, none will deny, and many Republicans have probably taken little interest in the elections, while the Democrats have polled their full vote. Ohio elects a Republican Governor by a small majority, while the Democrats have secured a majority in the State Legislature on joint ballot, which gives them a United States Senator in place of Wade.

In Pennsylvania, the Democratic candidate far Judge of the Supreme Court beats bis Republican opponent by about two thousand votes. Here is a lesson to be learned that Kansas Radicals might profit by pondering over. It is true we have no organized opposition in this State, but every Radical should go to the polls on the day of election determined to cast his vote for the proposed amendment to the Constitution which has been defeated in Ohio, not for female suffrage. Negro suffrage is a recognized principle of our party, and it is the duty of every member of that party to vote for it. The justness of giving the colored man the ballot cannot be questioned and as a measure of policy, we con-aider it the only way by which the party can Ve saved from irretrievable destruction, unless library, accessible alike to rich and poor- uan ou JosePn nercnants see anytnmg mm- 1ck for beUer fare lh0 ne 8talionf The Vermont Legislature assembled on necessary to raise this amount or reaay money.
