The first charges were signed by several citizens of Colorado, includ- ing Delegate Chaffee, a member of the Territorial Legislature, an ex- Indian agent, and several others. They accused Gov. MecCook of fraudulent practices while Governor of Colorado in connection with cer- n contracts to supply cattle to the | Ute Indians, by which the Govern- | ment is alleged to have lost $30,000; of approving a divorce bill more than eight months after the Legis- | lature had adjourned; that he had | received money for his influence to have an official retained in office, | and that he had been interested in | the profits of discounting vouchers for an Indian contractor, the pay- ment of which depended upon his own approval. | In regard to the cattle contracts, the only question was in regard to the character of the animals furnished The agreement | was to dell American eattle, and | MecCook’s accusers assert that he | and his brother-in-law, who in- | worth only about one-half as much | as the former.

A Wonderful Echo in Colorado | Canon.

When a gun is discharged total silence fol- | lows the report for a moment, then, | with startling suddenness, the echo | is heard, seemingly at a great dis- tance—say five miles to the south— whence it comes back in separate and distinct reverberations, as if leaping from glen to glen. 'Louder and quicker grows the sound, until a) ntly directly opposite, when -i}mulnme of sound is returned ; then once more the echo is heard, like the snapping of a cap, far to the eastward.

Tue Herald advocates the en- couragement of manufactures in Omaha by tax exemption. This was precisely George Francis Train’s recommendation to our City Coun- cil, aud the Herald probably remem- bers how that body treated it. While the BEE has always advoea- ted home manufactures as the surest foundation to commercial prosperity the principle of tax exemptions is contrary to the spirit of justice. Furthermore it would be in direct confliet with our Constitution, which distinetly prohibits such dis- crimination in favor of corpora- tions. The only way Omaha can en- courage home manufactures is by private subscription of bonuses, and by devising the means whereby manufacturers shall have an abundant supply of cheap water and cheap coal. I takes almost as much strategy to obtain possession of the great seal of Arkansas as it did to cabbage the great seal of Nebraska upon & memorable occasion. The great seal of Arkansas hap- pens, as it were, to be in possession of Governor Brooks, who is securely intrenched at the State Capitol. Baxter, the other claimant, being desirous of issuing gubernatorial proclamations is anxious to possess himself of this regal insignia. In order to overcome this de- ficlency he ordered a fac simile of the great seal from a St. Louis en- graverer. The signet reached Little Rock by express Monday, but the crafty Brooks having some- how scented danger in the air, promptly detached one of his staff’ officers, who confiscated the contra- | band article and placed it into the | hands of his master. And now | Brooks has two great seals of State, | while Baxter is disconsolate u\'er! his seal-less condition. —_— OuR New York dispatches couvey the gratifying intelligence that the managersof the Union Pacific pro- pose to take active measures for the | development of the vast mineral re- | sources in Wyoming and Utah. | This in sccordance with a pro- | gramme long since foreshadowed | & that that company would utilize the | inexhaustible cosl beds and iron mines of the Rocky Mountain re- | gion by establishing reduction | works, rolling mills and foundries, | at some convenient point on the line | of the road.

Capital Removal. [Correspendence of the Bxx | Lo~E TREE, May 5, 1574, Great excitement prevails here, owing to Uncle Samuel sending out subpaenas for a large number of our quiet, industrious citizens, to appear before the Grand Jury in Omaha. Deputy Marshal Culbertson, accor panied by our very efficlent Sheri have been out and served the in tations, and, now the general in- quiry is, “what is it for” The Marshal don’t know of course, and , but others ith more judgment think that it is on account of some of our leading farmers having so much wood th once belonged to poor Lo scattered around loosely on their premises. Your correspondent le ter belief, however. Be it what it may, many are scared, and it is rumored that large wood own- ers have threatened that if any of the witnesses hlow on them they can’t liv the county any longer, so you sec we will all be afraid to tell. The worst feature of the whole business, to my mind, is that it takes the men from their farms just in the busiest time, and T earnestly hope for the good of these poor men, (for most of them have little of this world’s filthy lucre,) that District Attorn Neville will let them off as soon possible, and only try to conviet those who have taken all the wood, because they were able to hire men and had teams to haul it, and not the homesteaders who only took a a little, and that from sheer neces- sity. But enough of this, our coun generally is flourishing, not as be- fore the panic, but steadily picking up, and if crops are good we will all | be content. Population is steadily | increasing west, and has reached | upwards of 3,000 in our litil» coun ty, and some have an ilea that that there will be a west end to our | State yet, and not all east. The Grangé excitement is not so 3 N 1l have joined who could raise the stamps, and some who could not, embry politicians furnishing them. You see the leading furmers see politics power in It and every new number in their vein is another vote. Your correspondent thinks, however, that the average Granger will vote to suit himself, and only joins the or. ganization for the benefits that will | acerue socially and pecuniar ‘here is already too many men in the organization who have joined | for political purposes as all know to make it perfectly harmonious, | and now that election approaches | theiraccustomed activities.

Their opportunity | to be sure have mostly been confined | | to the East, and in this they will | have to look out for more dissatis- | faction. The removal of the Capi- | tal from Lincoln will be an issue in the coming election, for where it is, and as it is, the State isin no way | benefitted, honest thinking men gent believe that it should be on the U. ,not farther | east than Columbus, and removed | from the presence of the old cor- Merrick | it is the | s to the lat- | Colorado at the time the contract | was made. The Committee conelud@that, as the official journals of the Legisla: ture represent the divorce bill re- ferred to in the second charge as having been signed before the ad- journment of the Legislature, the | | charge that he signed it eight | months after is not prc »d. | It appears that a gentleman who | | held & United States office in Color- | | ado, and who was threatened with | | removal, requested Gov. MeCook to | come to Washington and use his | influence for his retention, and paid to the Governor, probably to cover | the expenses of the journey and his stay in this city, $1,000, It is un- derstood that no corrupt motive has been provided on the part either of McCook or the man In Whose inter- | est he acted. - | _ In regard to the charge that Gov. | MeCook shared in the profits of “shaving” the vouchers of Indian | contractors, the payment of which | depended upon his approval, the | facts seem to be these: An Indian | Agent in McCook’s superintendency | verbal contractfor goods amounting | t0$5,000. When the bill was pre- sented to Gov. MzCook he refused to approve it without investigati | on account of the irregulari But the comtractor was greatly in need of the money, and offered to sell it for fifty cents on adollar. Mr. Thompson, McCook's brother-in-law and private secretary, went to the bank with the con- tractor, and by promisiug to securo the approval of the voucher, nego- tiated its sale and furnished a part of the money to buy it. The bill was ufterwand approved and the money not allowed at_the department for two years, The banker, who is a partner of Delegate Chaffbe, swears that Thompson told him that the profits on the voucher were to be divided between Gov, McCook, the | banker, and himself. Both Thom- son and MeCook swear that the latter mever had any interest in it,and did not know that Thomp- son had until long afterward, and that then, on Thompson’s account, he paid to the banker $500 as his share of the profits out of his own pocket and reprimanded Thompson for his part in the affair. The whole contest has grown out of the personal relations between McCook snd Delegate Chaffee, whose particular friend Elbert, now Governor of the Territory, will be removed if MeCook is confirmed. The President is on McCook’s side and will not withdraw his name. — Ohio on the Veto, (Cleveland Herald, May 2] The weekly Ohio newspapers do not criticise the veto: A majority of them think the veto wise; the minority think that the President, | | if he erred, did so on the right side. Almost unanimously the weekly | Ohio press believes that the finan- cial question had best be let alone, to work out itsown problem. Henoe the veto can do no harm. So far as it is an entering wedge for the disruption of the Republi- can party, we see no symptoms of that in Ohio. We do not aver that | the Republican party is as strong as ever in Ohio, A man would be knave or fool who should claim that there are no signs of weakness in the party. All we say is, that the party will suffer no detriment in | Ohio through the veto, There are other causes that may knock jt jnto a cocked hat, but the veto will not add one element to such causes, Asarule the Ohio weekly press takes very little interest in the veto wmatter. Why, we cannot say. But from that fact we argue that the country does not feel great financial ringency, and that the rural dis- tricts are moving on as usual in manufacturing, and _mechanieal centers have received a check— especially where such industries are connected with coal and iron. The oil trade is also very much depress- ed, but that is traced to causes out- side of financial panies or embar- rassments. Over productioh is what's the matter with the oil busi- ness, but its depression in localities where oil business is a permanent feature added to the coal and iron depression, all_combined have a very sensible effect on the country. On another point, besides the let- ting the financial question work it- self out, the Ohio weekly pressis almost unanimous. It is that there should be no contraction of the cur- rency. In all this financial eiscus- sion the contractionists of the great financial centres have been able to place their opponents in a false po- | rushed into the ring and separated his combative brothers by persua- sively chewing their ears.
