F. M. Jouxsox, C. M. Grze, Chatrmin, Becretary, How much did Postmaster Yost pay for the exhonoration from that incorruptible organ of the industrial elasses? How much in greenbacks or silver-plate did the Union gobble for that splendid testimonial ? THE way the Union exhibitsits devotion to honest workingmen is by exulting in the discharge of poor postal clerks who have families de- pending on their support. THE Republican now declares in favor of water works, providing the estimated cost shall not exceed $300,- 000; but it opposes the expenditure of $400 for plansand estimates. I7 is to be hoped that the City Council will at once let the contract for the uniform stone curbing on Farnham and Douglas streets. This improvement should by all means be completed before the State Falr. THE leading Republican organs of Paris secem to regard the recent election of & Bonapartist to the National Assembly 8s & very dangerous omen to the Republican cause. STRANGERS visiting Omaha, and even old residents, are frequently puzzled about locatlons in peram- bulating our streets. Mayor Chase and the City Council should see to it that every street corner be pro- vided with a label showing the name of the street THERE is a law that requires county supervisors to provide each eross-road with guide posts, In Douglas county this law seems to have been sadly neglected, and we therefore call the attention of our County Commissioners to this mat- ter. e SeNATOR HITCHCOCK, We under- stand, seeks to evade the responsi- bility of the removal of Bye and Cole, by disclaiming all knowledge of the matter. Does the Senator think he can convince anybody that these 1aen would have been removed without his personal application ? BENATOR THURMAN has con- sented to deliver the address at the Lynchburg, Virginia, agricultural fair. - This address, we presume, may be of more than ordinary sig- nificance in view of the fact that Thurman expects to be the Demo- eratie Centennial candidate for the presidency. No honest laborer or mechanic who has been known to discharge his duties with fideiity to his em- ~ployer has ever received such com- ‘mendations from the Union as did e postmaster who, with a salary ;u,ooo per annum, has speculated on poor ¢lerkssalaries. and defrauded ‘'WHAT HAS BEEN PROVED. In order to evade the disgraceful revelations of postal corruption dis- closed by the recent investigation, Since his return he has found itcon- | venient to ignore the stubborn facts that have been brought to light by that investigation. He declares that he is not aware that Yost.has committed any wrongful act. Now, in order that he may no longer grope mn the dark about a matter that demands his earnest and unbiased attention, we propose to recapitulate what has been proved by competent witnesses during the investigation, and what we are ready to prove in any court of jus- tice : First.—It has been demonstrated and admitted by Yost that he had knowingly and corruptly connived with James M. Pattee, the lottery gambler, in converting his lottery shop into a branch postoffice, where mail matter was stamped, canceled and put up in mail sacks ready for transportation. Becond—It was charged and ad- mitted by Yost that letters directed to him as postmaster, inquiring about the lotterry swindle, were turned over forreplication to Pattee, which made the postmastera lottery capper, and this probably explains why Yost drew prizes in the lot- tery and why he received and ac- cepted silver plate presents from Pattee. Third—It was charged and ad- mitted by Yost that he did exact usurious iuterest from postal clerks by speculatiag on their salary, with money which, according to Hill's testimony, belonged to the Govern- ment. Fourth—It is charged and sub- stantlated by sworn testimony of Sperry, and oorroborated by the pay- rolls of the office, that Yost did de- fraud the Government out of several | hundred dollars, by returning frau- dulent pay-rolls. Fifth—TIt is charged and proved by testimony before Special Agent Hawley, that seventy-five dollars were extorted for a mail contract from James Stephenson under false | representation, out of which sum, according to Lew Hill's testimony, $32.50 was paid to Yost. There are other minor charges which we do not deem worth while to reproduce, believing that any un- biased person would concede that enough has been proved to sink a whole ship load of postmasters. BANK RINGS AND THE STATE TREA- SURY. ‘Whenever a banking institution abandons its legitimate business by entering the more enticing arena of politics, you may look for corrup- tion in its most dangerous form. Experience dearly bought has re- peatedly demonstrated that the greatest menace to official integrity springs from combinations of greedy capitalists with unserupulous politi- cians. Such combinations are gen- erally known as bank rings, and of all the rings that attempt to control politics, these are by all odds the most formidable. Money-making being the prineis pal object of the bank ring masters, itis but natural that they should always spin and weave their nets | around the keepers of public funds. Thus we find them usually taking the liveliest interest in the election of city, county, and State treasur- ers. Just now, as we gradually ap- proach the State election, the State treasury seems to have become the object of their most ardent solicita- tions. This great commonwealth allows the State Treasurer the magnificent salary of four hundred dollars per annum, and this would hardly make the State Treasurership a sugar plum if it were not for the incidental in- conie from the judicious use of the people’s money. The opportuniesafforded for legit- imate speculation by our loose laws, are in themselves asufficient attrac- tion. Even an honest State Treas- urer can keep an impecunious bank on a yery profitable footing. If, however, the ‘Lreasury is captured by an unscrupulous and corrupt bank ring, there is a magnificent opportunity for warrant shaving and usurious speculations. Against this danger the BEE de- sires to warn the Republican State Convention. We are reliably in- formed that three or four bank rings are already organizing their forces, with a view to forcing their own tools upon the Convention. These schemers should and must be de- feated. No man directly or remotely connected with a bank ring sheuld be a safe man to trust with the peo- ple’s money. The people cannot, and will not, put their money Into the safe keep- ing of a man pledged from the very outset to capitalists or speculators, who expeet to manipulate it for their personal benefit. Nor can the Republican party afford tonominate and support any man for Treasurer who is known to be a pliant tool of a bank ring. We may have to speak more definitely on this subject before the Convention meets; meantime we would advise the ringmasters and their tools to go slow. Ex-POSTMASTER GRIFFEN swears that Yost was to receive $1,800 per annum asassistant postmaster. The pay-roils show that he drew $2,000 per annum. Griffen swears that Yost made out the pay-rolls and certified them as correct, therefore it 1s self-evident that Yost robbed the Government of $200 per an- num in that transaction, notwith- standing that Griffen divided his own salary with him. Sena- tor Hitchcock not only endorses this rascality but he causes the removal of the men who dared to uncoverit. —— OHIO votes on her new constitu- tion to-day. It is expected that the the Government by returning frsudulent pay-rolls, vote will be very close, with proba- bilities against its adoption, Senator Hitcheock departed on a | pleasure trip to the mountains. | THE REPUBLICAN VALLEY. Political Conventions and Proxies —Crops and Grasshoppers— Destitation and Relief. Correspondeuce of the BEE. LowELL. KEARNEY COUNTY, | NEBRASKA, August 17. | EpITOR BEE: During my late visit to Omaha and the east partof the State, I ‘was exceedingly gratified to find a | disposition among the people to do | equal and impartial justice to the West in the distrioution of the | offices at the coming election. In : fact I think the east partof the | State is disposed to give more than : belongs to us. We feel grateful for your generous offers, but shall not demand the lion’s share. Such 1 generosity will tend to cause good feeling and harmony in the Repub_ lican Convention, and put deserv- ing and worthy men into office. 1f tbe Convention enforces the re- commendation of the Central Com- mittee, in requiring delegates in all cases to be excluded, unless resi- dents of the county they represent, quite a number of the frontier coun- ties will be disfranchised. The peo- ple are poor, and very few can afford to bear the expense of a trip to Lin- coln. For instance, if the people of Hitcheock or Dundy county, regu- larly assemble to appoint Mr. Buch, Byfield, or some other good man who is going to_the Convention as delegate from Red Willow county, to vote by proxy for them, what is wrong in this? On the contrary unless this is permitted, some of these counties will not be represen- ted. Last week I visited the Republi- can Valley on business, Things are bad enough, but not so desponding as generaliy represented. I took par- ticular pains to see, observe, inquire, and obtain all the information I could, on & casual and flying visit. Some are leaving, but most of the people are firmly resolved to stick to the country, and ridicule those who do not. Wheat and oats are about half a crop, and nearly, if not quite enough to supply the aemand. ‘With few exceptions, the grasshop- pers and drought have destroyed the corn_crop; vegetables and potatoes are very light, and in some locali- ties a fadure, At present the wheat is being hauled to Gibbon to be ground. Mr. Sashley has a fine flour mill in process of erection at Beaver City in Furnas county, and Messrs. Vallintineand Sheppardson another at Riverton, in Franklin county. These mills will soon he completed, obviating the negessity of hauling whent so far to be ground. The people are putting up all the hay they conveniently can. Many will manage to winter their cattle and horses, but the dilemma is what to do with the hogs without corn. There will be destitution and suffering in many instances which must and will be alleviated. The State can ill afford to loose these noblepioneers, Gen. Vifquain’snoble example will be followed by others, but private munificence is not sufe ficient ; the State must proffer her aid. Those who bestow their boun- ties should see that they fall upon the needy and deserving. Fortu- nately aead beats and loafers are comparatively few in these parts. I rode down the Platte Valley this forenoon and was rejoiced to find the crops of all kinds quite good— even the corn will be a fair crop. Mr. Wilkinson informed me that he would have a good crop of small grain, and twelve hundred bushels of corn. Business is dull and we begin visably to see the great dam- age to our erops. ‘We will cheerfully bear our losses and plow our ground and prepare for another year, when we expect better things. Ex-Governor Paddock is in town, superintending the distribution of forty (40) sacks of flour, he has gen- erously donated the sufferers of the valley, -Among the honorable, no- ble and worthy gentlemen I formed the acquaintance of n Omaha years ago, Governor Paddock occupies & prominent position—Nebraska has few better men than he. Have known him some seven years, and never saw, knew or heard of the least thing derogatory to him as a gentleman in the fullest and high- est acceptation of the term. It does our hearts good to greet such a man to our rude homes. He has many warm and fast friends in this part of theState. Who is the next man of wealth to contribute to help allevi- ate the suffering of our worthy pio- neers, ‘W, Gasuix, JR. OTOE COUNTY. Correspondence of the BxE. SYRACUSE, OTOE County, August 17. EDITOR BEE: Dry weather has affected this county about equal to those adjacent on the west. The corn will be better than in western counties, but a short yield for this loeality. The eastern part of the county will have very little wheat in compari- son to that of the west; average per acre about equal, but fewer acres sowed this year. The past ten days several rains have favered western Otoe, Cass and Lancaster counties, ‘which has somewhat revived vege- tation, but the eastern part of this county has had no rain for several weeks and vegetation of all kinds is about gone, and in many _places the small forest trees which have grown miscellane- ously, are dying The grass s re- markably short and very poor. Few gardens which were cultivated in the early part of the scason are . Potatoes are searce, and are selling at good prices, with slim prospects for any for winter, unless shipped here. Prospects are better further west, where the late rains have benefitted all kinds of vegeta- tion. Potatoes appear to grow, corn filling, some grass growing, and young orchards, which have been stripped of the leaves are putting out new leaves and shoots like spring, and it is feared that the young and tender branches will be killed in winter. The farmers are busy threshing wheat and oats—the yield is gener- ally about two-thirds of an average crop; some are yet stacking. Hay is being cut whenever it can be found 1 payingquantities, and will be unusually good, but short; and dry weather hae favored the farm- ers, which they are generally mak- ing good use of. 'While writing un- der the shade of a time-worn tree, the grasshoppers are afloat in the air; they are are so anno) itis difficult to write, I trust their of final dej is near at han | now being sold to feed hogs at sixty- ‘I'he farmers have one consola- tion this year, with all their adver- sity, of having the best wheatraised for ‘some years past; and now Bouthern Nebraska has more than double the wheat ever before raised. Stock will suffer in some places for feed, but there will be no shortage of wheat for bread and money, and farmers will feed wheat instead of corn, as it will be cheaper. The river counties in Towa and Missouri_have good corn ecrops, which will average from sixty to eighty bushels to the acre, which is five and seventy cents per bushel. The county in Iowa adjacent to Nebraska City has more hogs and cattle than ever before, and which will consume nearly all the corn raised in_that location. There are rumors through Nebrasks that corn is plenty in northwest Missouri at fifteen cents per bushel, but is now being engaged from sixty toseventy- five cents per bushel, hence corn | will be at round figures during the | coming year. Abp. HOKNEY FOR THE LADIES. Sashes of several colors are new. | There is quite an exhibition of Swiss jewelry, this season. The Detroit “hired girl ring” now demands three beaux nights each week. Tt costs three thousand dollars to dress a fashionable woman at Sara- toga. As soon asa young woman gets some steady employment she stops fainting away at the sight of a mouse. Colored silk stockings are all_the rage among the femaleswells They come very high (in price) sixdollars per pair. Chinese jewelry and ornaments for the person of all kinds will be very fashionable next winter—say those who know. Young lady, recommend your particular enemy to go to Wiscasset. They have hand-organ serenades there, They are now wearing the Ruba- gas hat caught directly up in front with a large bow of bright colored ribbon or velvet. Grenadine walking dresses, with alternate stripes of silks and beads lengthwise, aro among the hand- somest of the season. White mull, striped with black velvet, forms a very beautiful dress for evening wear, and is extremely stylish withal. ‘Women sometimes get high, but Mr. Roster tops them all. She has chmbed to the summit of Popocata- peti, the greatest altitude ever at- tained by a woman. Tsabella of Spain, Countess Gir- genti, Prince Alphonse, “three young infantas,” and several dukes, have left Paris to take sea baths at Houlgatte, on the Norman coast.

Double-faced sashes are some- thing new, They are lined on both sides and, upon’ turning, one can have a new color to edify the na- tives with, They are, of course, imported. _ A lady correspondent at the sea- s annoyed because the evening re of gendemen and the dress of waiters is precisely the same, and by way of distinction, she sugeests that the latter wear green neckties.

They are of black kid, sal- loped at the ankle, and have moder- ate high heels, When you see a young man who parts his hair in the middle stand- ing over a slumbering babe, and trying to explain why it is that wind on the stomach makes the sleeping infant smile, you begin to feel a respect for him that you never felt before, A Cuban lady atSaratoga, famous for her wealth and very elaborate toilets, wears a necklace of Ameri- can twenty dollar gold pieces,valued at $500. Whenever she wears this peculiar ornament the fellows “nudge” one another and whisper, “She hasmoney !"’ Writing on prevailing fashions from Saratoga, Eli Perkins says: “The agony now is big fans—fans that require muscle to wield them, and $25 to buy. When such a fan moves it starts slowly, but 1t soon scares up an inciplentsimoon. They tell all sorts of stories here —how a young lady got caught in an elevator with one and could not get out, how they got turned around edge ways in the halls, and jam off the plastering and break in doors, and how they trip around under gentlemen’s legs in the round dances like a green adjutant's sword at a military ball. Speaking of elevators, this morn- ing an innocent Vermonter went up in the United States Hotel elevator five stories. When he came to go down, the elevator was on the ground floor, coming up. He stum- bled over a lady’s fan, and went down to meet it. When he struck, his friend rushed around with water and fans and camphor. “I'm not hurt much,” hesaid; “but some of you had better pour some cam- phor on that elevator ! —_— Train’s Latest Prophesy. * * » * Presidency and Dictatorship T sur- rendered long ago—and Creed, Bi- ble, God, no longer interest me.
