KOSEWATER, Publishcr —eeeeee Tue treacherous and disgraceful course pursued by Larson, the pub- lisher of the bogus Scandinavian Republican paper, was handsomely rebuked at the ballot box, in the election of Wm. Doll. Even Lar- son’s most intimate friends, and par- ticularly his own countrymen, irre- spective of party, openly express their contempt at and disgust with Larson’s duplicity. ‘rsie unveiling and inauguration of thegreat Lincoln monument over the tomb of the martyred President which takes place at Springfield, on Thursday, will be an imposing af- fair. Besides President Grant, who will reach Springfield this after- noon, many of the most eminent soldiers and statesmen of the nation, will be there to do reverence to the memory of the immortal emanci- pator, e RED NoseDp MILL who in his brilliant political canvass has devo- ted so much time to Rosewater, will be highly gratified at the striking evidences of his popularty in Doug- las County. In the Sixth Ward, where there are at least one hun- dred and twanty temperance men, the prohibition apostla received just one vote. Miller's totsl vote in the county carefully summarized, will probably reach eight votes. — 'WATER 50NDS DEFEATED. As we write this, we are not in- formed as o just the number of votes for or against water bonds at tne speial city election yesterday, but enough is known to warrant vs insaying that the proposition was defeated. The vote being on gener- al election day, 8 very yote was polled, 50 1t can not be said a full expression wasnot obtajned pvo and con. We hope this will settle thisques- - ilon, so that we will not be troubled with it again for some time to come, at least until we have experienced a revivalof business and this city is able to carry so great an undertak- ing without its being & crushing burden to the tax payers. ‘WE congratulate ourselves upon one fact, viz; that the blican was the only Journal in eity which took ground st this measure at this time, and the le have endorsed our position " fully, and it would have been more over- whelming had it not been for #he excitement of & political canvs ican. Instead of an overwhelming en- dorsement, the vote on the water question is an overwhelming rebuke to our fossil contemporary. Instead of settling the question for some time to come, the popular verdict demonstratesmostemphatically that the people demand a re-submissiou of the water bong question at the earliest opportnnity. With all the old fogies and anti-progresslonists laboring against it, there was over one thousand majority in favor of the water bonds in four wards of the city, and the total majority is with- in a mere fraction of the necessary two-thirds. With such facts before ns, it is decidedly absurd in the Re- publican to talk about popular en- dorsement of its position. — DOUGLAS COUXTY, Douglas county has, we must con. fess, disappointed many staunch Republicans who were but partially familiar with the situation. To us the partial defeat of the county ticket did not cause much suprise. From the very outset it was pain- fully apparent to everybody familiar with the intricacies of campaigning that the Republican Central Com- mittee had virtually doomed the ticket by delaying the nominations to Within six days of the eleotion. Our repeated protestations against this suicidal policy were unheeded and even ridiculed. Other eircum- stances, which we intend to review more fully hereafter, contributed largely to render the result of the contest decidedly dubious. Without efficient organization, without & con- certed plan of action, it is indeed almost a miracle that any Republi- can on the ticket was elected. Those who have successfully sur- vived the plucky and desperate on- slaught of the well drilled and enthusiastic enemy owe their suc- cess largely to the untiring and he- roie efforts of Mr. Sweesey, who, although himself defeated, made a partial victory possible by throwing himself in the breach wherever danger threatened, and whenever his aid was inyvoked. While the fortunes of war were somewhat against us, let us be thankful for I what bas been achioved. CARRY THE NEWS. Nebraska again greets her sister Riates with tidings of a well con- tésted, glorious victory for the Re- publican cause. Again Nebraska has demonstrated her unbounded faith in the principles of the great national party that has, during the past thirteen years, conducted the affairs of the nation. Republicans of Nebraska may again congratu- late themselves upon the emphatic and overwhelming popular verdict in favor of their standard bearers. =Aithough comparatively meagre, the returns so far received indicate conclusively that the people of Ne- braska have endorsed the Republi- can State ticket by an average ma- Jority of at least ten thousand. This | 100, notwithstanding the attempted diversion of Prohibition fanatics and Independent reformers in favor of the Bourbons. While local issues have, in nearly every instance, largely controlled the election of members of the Legislature, the | implicit confidence in the Republi- can parly wasstrikingly manifested by the majorities for the Republican State ticket. This 18 even true of Omaha and Douglas county, where all the interest was concentrated in the contest for legislative positions. Let us, therefore, carry the news and spread it broadcast that Ne- braska is still true to the party that admitted her to statehood, and has never failed to manifest an active interest in her material welfare and progressive prosperity. | | | | VIRTUOUS INDIGNATION. The contest here is close. By the aid of colonized voters from Council Bluffs, and the use of hushels of | money, the ring ticket may have | been saved from a tota] wreck.— Herald. The virtuous indignation of the Herald over these alleged corrup- | tions is decidedly refreshing. 1t re- minds us forcibly o the burglar that cried “stop thief” in order to cseape. The charge that anybody had colonized Iowa voters in Omaha is simply preposterous, unless, indeed, the ediior of the Herald knows of such rascally trans- actions among his own followers. When the Democratic organ talks about Lushels of money, it evident- 1y refers to the grand gift distribu- tion made by the Pemocrats. It is 8 well known fact that Democratic oandidates and the Democratic Cen- tral Commijttee expended five dol- lars where Republicans expended one. We shall only cite one instance to illustrate the unblushingboldness to whieh the Douglas County Dem- ocracy carried on the nefarious work of bribery. In order to capture the Bohemian vote a check for one hun- dred dollars signed by Chns Hart- man, treasurer of the Democratic County Central Committee, and payable to W. Kucera, owner of the Bohemian hall, was deposit- ed with & prominent grocer on Thirteenth street, to be delivered to gaid Kucera when the polls closed. Now this checkiwas seen and ex- amiued by sevi prominent Re- publicans, and doubtless ppid to-day by the Omaha National Bank. What does the Herald think of that? Do men earn one hundred dollars per day for riding around in carriages? What does your incor- ruptible Democracy think of it? Is it not about time for the Herald to direct its moral lectures to its own leaders? —_— THE most forcible illustraion of the direct consequences of an odious postal appolatment comes to us from Toledo, Ohio. Last spring Congress- man Sherwood replaced a compe- tent and popular postmaster in To- ledo by a personal friend who was notoriously eorrupt. The Republicans of Toledo revol- ted against the change, ana a very bitter postal war ensued, which fin- ally terminated by an overwhelm- ing popular verdict against Sher- wood in the Republican primaries. The Toledo delegation followed Sherwood mto the Congressional district convention and there caused ‘his defeat for renomination, and now the telegraph announces that the Republican nominee in the To- ledo district, which is overwhelm- ingly Republican, has been defeated by over one thousand majority. This may be very gratifying fo Sherwood, who is henceforth & po- litical dead duck, to use the John- sonian term, but it furnishes another evidence of the demoralizing effect of corrupt federal officials upon the party. ———— NOTWITHSTANDING the almost superhuman efforts of the so-called Towa anti-monopolists, who are nothing more nor less than Demo- eratic wolves in sheep’s clothing, Towa is still overwhelmingly Re- publican. e———— A secret_organization has been formed in New Orleans, known as the “Hives,” nhmhrh wm chmw;er and to the White . ey Rave noniindtal pendidatos ayor and other city officers, and resolved in favor of the li- ation of the State debt, and ple ng members of u::) society to p‘\l-oze against any tax principal or intercst.” “The organization cisims to control 5,000 votes. — General Phil Sheridan seems to bave pretty sound views on the disease called Presidential mania. | Somebody asked him recently if he would not like to be a candidate, | and recelved this reply : I do not | from Nebraska City. JOHNSON COUNTY: Tesumseh—The Farmers — Rail | roads—Buildings, Etc. Correspondence of the BEE. TECUMSEH, JoHNSON Co., October 10th, 1874. EDITOR BEE : Johnson county will be almost uan eutire failure of corn, notwithstand- ing the stand of corn in the spring was unusually good and prospects were never better than for this year; but the excessive hot weather in July, with hot winds from the south- west, laid waste all their prospcets for this season. The oats crop was fair, but little sowed, hence feed will be short and many of the farmers will be com- pelled to buy. The grass was also unusually short, but all witl oe saved that is possible. The yield of wheat was very good and of excellent quality, which is generally very plenty in the county, but the high tariff by rail to market compels the buyers in market to pay less for it than on any other road in the State. The A. & N. railroad has monopolized the trade in this locality, it being the only one in the county, and is indeed an extortion on the people which has become a county talk, as they have had but little accommodation about them and take advantage of their inde- pendence. As an illustration they charge thirty dollars more on & car from Tecumseh to Atchison than from Lincoln, the latter being fifty miles farther from Atchison, the terminus of the road. The citizens now have some hopes of & competing line via the Trunk & Brownville and Fort Kearney, since work has begun on the road Messrs. Fate & Johnson have the contract of lay- ing the iron to the Johnson county line, which, I learn, will be comple- ted by the first of March, 1875, and am qu informed by good authority, that the county seat, Tecumseh, will give Dr_Converse all that he could reasonably ask. There yet remains one-half of a township in the east- ern part of the county, or about three and a half miles that would have to be built where they would Tequire bonds, which is already gra- ded and ready for the ties and iron. The work on the trunk road is being pushed forward as rapid as possible, as plenty of help can be had at very low rates; and as soon as finished work will be un on the B.& I. & K. Rallroad, and doubtless the cars will run to Tecumseh by March 1st, 1875. The citizens of the county do not ap®ear much discouraged on account of the fallure of the crop, looking forward with eagerness when fhey will have a better season than this. Qceasionally there is a_farmer who is desirous of leaving Nebraska and no longer trying his success st farm- ing m the desolated grasshapper country, Daily I see those prairie schooners making their way from the south-west, or south-west Ne- braska and Kansas, most of whom say they intend returning again in the spring. Some indeed look as though they had gone througha campaign of distress, and were scarcely able to get away from the forsaken country. Some, their teams and stock look well, and they appear very little discouraged. Tecumseh appears to . be lively, and the merchants say they do not see but little difference in the trade this fall and previous years. Many in the county will be close rum this winter, but no fears are entertained ofany one suffering for want of provisions and feed, as there is plenty of wheat in the county, and in fact, a surplus, which is being held for hetter prices, ADD. — INDUSTRIAL POINTS. The silk factories of New Jersey employ 7,000 girls. The Tailors’ Uulon of New York have under consideration the pro- priety of building a hall. The Coal Miners’ Union in_the north of England has entered vigor- ously into the work of co-operation. The German railways employ about 100,000 persons, and their av- erage yearly pay is 833 thalers, or about $211. “The iron-workers at the Lancas- ter 7 Manufacturing Company’s works are on a strike. Reduction of wages the cause. The Austrian printers havej two successful co-operative printing offi- ces at Vienna. Over two thousand printers are interested. Eight hundred paper miils in the United States give employment to 20,000 people, and produce $70,000,- 000 worth of paper per annum. The women employed in tailoring in New York have been discussing for some time past the organiza‘ion of a protective association. M- Godin, the founder of the fa- mous family store at Guise, France, divides the " profits of his large es- tablishment to capital, invention and labor. The Cleveland trades unions main- tain an industrial council, composed of three delegates from every branch in the city. Twenty branches are re- presented. The Iron Moulders’ International Union, at its recent Richmond con- vention, reported 67 branches of lo- cal unions existing in 17 States and the British provinces. They num- ber about 7,000 raen. Reports from Minnesota etate that there is a large excess of Scandina- vian labor there, emigration haying been forced by the misrepresenta- tions of agents. Unskilled labor. ers’ wages are not over $1.25, and living is high, Wages in Australia range, for skilled trades, at from 12 pence to 15 pence per hour, or from $11 to $17 per week. For unskilled labor itis$8. Men In the gold and other mines work eight hours, and other occupations ten, per day. Co-operative farming, bankin and mining are being experiment; upon in Great Britain on a small scale, Until within a few years the ownership and working of lands and mines, or the business of bank. ing, could not be undertaken, under law, by co-operative assoclation.

A company has | been organized, 1,000,000 cap- | ital, to construct improved dwel- lings. In England there are a few in- stances of successful co-operative production. The Paisley Manufac- turing Society (cotton), the Hebden Bridge Fustian Society, the Eccles Quilt Manufacturing_Society and the Lurgan (Ireland) Damask Man- ufacturing Society are the best ex- amples of smail operations well managed. The reduction of wages is strongly marked in England and Wales, and very largely resisted by the opera- tives, who claim thaf in most in- stances it is unnecessary. The coal mining interest proposes a reduction of 10 to 20 per cent., the cotton spin- ners of from 5 to 10, and the iron- workers generally about 12 per cent. The average wages in the Masea- chusetts cotton factories is stated as follows: Skilled mechanics em- ployed on wood, and iron workers, $15 27 and $14 30 per week; engi- neers, $14 30; laborers, $8 75. Fac- tory operatives ~proper—Dressers, $14 00; mule spinners, $1175; gird- ers, $980; picket feeders, $825; strippers, $7 70, The benefits of arbitration have xecently been exhibited in striking cases in England. A strike of about 40,000 miners and related occupa- 11018, over a praposed readjustment of pitsmen’s wages, was under con- sideration, when, by the efforts of the officers of the Miners’ Uuion and others, the employers were in- duced to consent to arbitration. The Bolton strike hasbeen submitted to the arbitration of Mr. Russell, Judge of the Manchester county court. A strike was recently proposed in South Wales among the tin-plate workers manufacturing_expressly for the Amprican market. The price per box (requiring four sets of hands, among whom the amount Is divided) now paid is nine and three- fourths pence, and that asked by the men was one shilling. Mr. Ru- pert Kettle was called to arbitrate, and decided that the old rates should remain until trade improved, The plates shipped here arg ysually of an inferior quality, The Machinists' and Blacksrths' Union of Cleveland, Ohio, have per- fected @ system of purchasing sups plies, by which a large reduction of prices to their members is effected, They have established a store of their own, at which articles are sold at cost, including expense of store, to members, while to others the or- dinary market rates are asked. The Petersberough District Unjon of English Agricultural Laborers, besides aiding “locked-out”” labor- ers directly, has orggnized purchnses direct gnd in large amounts, Meat and coal supplies are thus purchas- ed, making a saving of the latter to the amount of from $1 to $1.50 per ton. They are now agitating the establishment of a wholesalg store for the sale of supplies at cost. = Ben- efit clubs are also formed. The work of erecting new work- men’s dwellings in London proceeds with celerity and sucoess. One as- sociation, the Artisans', Laborers’ and General Building’ Company, have constructed several thousand buildings, unitary and separate. A large park, named after the Earl of Shaftesbury, nas been laid in con- nection with one of their efforts, They now have another park of eighty acres laid out. The ground has been taken for over 1,004 dwell- ings already. The streets will be planted with trees, every dwelling wiil have back and front garden land, and the center of the park will belaid out as a public garden, —— Biography of H. Kains Jackson. (From the Milwaukes Journal of Commerce.) H. Kains Jackson was born at ths sources of the river Nile about 3,500 years before the time of Angus Smith. Of his earlier years there is no well preserved record. Like the SpringfieldRepublican’s figures, it is Bhrouded in Mystery, Itisrelats edof him that, on ane oceasion when his mother had chastised him for stealing another little hoy's peg- top, in order to facilitate his calcula- tions on the sand, and ordered him supperless to bed, ho expostulated He didn’t care, he said, for this par- t'2alar mstance of hardship, but he considered the example mischievous not to say dangerous. Suppose all mothers should send their naughty little boys to bed without supper| It would inevitably affeot the world’s demand for coreals, disturb the equilibrium of trade, and bring the calculations of philosophers to naught. He contended that this was more naughty than to ‘“salt down" another boy’s peg-top. His mother was struck with the comprehensiveness of this argument gave him another spanking for his impertinence,and went and told the neighbors. It eventually formed the text of an editorial in the Zhebes Ezpectorator and Comical Adviser, a leading commercial paper of the time, and was in that manner hand. ed down to this day. H. Kams Jackson appeers to be only another name for. The philoso- pher who charged a Persian king, for some brokerage service he ren. dered, one grain of wheat for the first square on the chess board, two grains on the second, four grains on the third, sixteen on the fourth, and 50 on, geometrically, The amount proved so great as to exhaust the visible supply of the world at that time, and is only approximated by the aggregate short sales of Milwau- kee scalpers for a year. The king mad. “lay’down on his contract, called young Jackson an “unneces. sary middle man" and told him he had tolled lie. Bo he remained, in spite of this brilliant “corner”’ on the wheat market, & comparatively poor man. H. KainsJackson became eminent as 3 statisticlan at a_comparatively early perfod. There is evidence that Pharaoh had been studying some of his productions in the Zgyp- tian Produce Ezchange Weekly when he had his memaorable dream. That distinguished *bull” operator, Joseph, was certainly in the coun- sels of H. Kains Jackson. He caused Mr. Jackson’s figures to be cabled down into Cana-an. They were published with editorial com- n.ents bp the BethEl Peor Tribune, the majority of the stock of which was held by a_prominent Egyptian speculator. It will be remembered that the Israelites who sold short on the strength of this information were very hard pressed to fill their Beptember “deliveries,” and settle thelr “differences.” They had to carry their drachmac, or spondulics, or whatever the currency ot that duy was, up Into Egypt and plank them down in Joseph's back office, — LADY equestrian prize contests should be held at a discount at fairs, The exercise is too trying, and too many go home from the contest to Eane———— 1| EZRA MILLARD, |J.
