Cowrs mades good point in DIUK ADAME AND HIS BAURERS The indiotment, trisl and convice tion of R. 0. Adams, late postmaster of postal funds amoun-icg to $12,000 | & and his ercape from the custody of cluding chapter in the history of the infamous dynasty founded by P. W. Hitchoock and foundered by the po- litics] cyclone of 1876 Dick Adams was a natural born rozue. His advent in Omaha 28 an insurance egent, afforded him full scope for developing his cheek | and indulging in his propentity for etealing. While acting as the agent ofa Baltimore insurance com- pany he embezzled its funds and when the theft was diccovered he was eaved from the penitentiary by his father, who came to his rescue and made good his son's defaleation. Haviug been set adrift by the insurance company Dick Adams drifted into politics. In this ephere he was eminently suscess- ful. The election of the ex-cadetship trader to the United States senate opened the way for Adsmsto distine- tion and renown. Birds of a feather flock together. Adams was installed private secretary to Hitcheoek, who needed just such atadeptat pilferiugto carry on the commercial part of the senstorial busivess. As confidence man and huckster in senatorial favors Adems wes a brilliant sucoess. tabors were very arduousat times, but alwaye well paid for. He was a splen- did hand to draw double pay. En- rolled as clerk in the peneion bureau he elso drew six dollara a day for ser- vices at the capitol, besides other little | ; crumbs that fall from his wmaster's 111876 Adams returned to Nebras- ks {0 supervise the senatorial election. His emivent services on bshalf of the back pay sonator are a matter of his- toric record. They were published at the expente of the state in the legisla- tive investigation into the alleged sen- atorial bribery in January, 1877, This record contains the testimony given by Adams, wherein he admite that he bribed one Flannsgan, private secretary of Superintendent Trwing,cf the B. & M. railroad, by payiog him $600 for certain documents stolen from that company and other docu- ments which Flannsgan bad forged. Aud now wo reach the most re- markable chapter in the caresr of Adems. Eoou after the installment | i of President Hayes in March, 1877, | | Adams §led his application for tro i that was then about to be established by the postmaster-general. This ap- plication was strongly endorsed. Be- sides§ his patron-saint, Hitchcock, Welch, Adsms was backed by Hitch- cock's senatorial chums. Among these tbe redoubtable George Spencer, late of Alsbama, now of tho Black Hi Was most active. Dehind all thess backers wrs the |t ring of mail contractors, who were anxious to secure a postmaster for | ;, Deadwood w them. Sevator ment, and the cditor of Tur Brx, over his own siznature, charged Ad- sms with being a defavlter in the in- snrence business, and pointed fo his record in the bribery of Flanazen. These protest tions were disragarded by Gen. Tyner. Adams was triuwph- antly pulled through by Hiteheock and the mail contractor ring. Adams was iostalled into Deadwood Dostofiice and commenced h's postsl carzeer by blackmailing the merchacts | of Deadwood out 61 several thousand doilars in locating the postoflice. The opening of the Deadwood post- hie speech Mondaynight,when ho said: T don’t know how many democrats fought iu the Union armier, but T do know that not a single republican was found levelling bis musket agaiost the mational government,” W. H. Exoursm is reported as con- tributing generously to the Indiara campaign fund. The laboring men will remember that this contribution is the result of tax rales and foreclored sortgages wrung from the dearly bought earnings of the poor. Rerorts thicken that Germany is wbout to remonetizesilver. Europesn dispatches astert that Germsuy is cous'antly losing gold because she coined it at too high a valuation, and i% now compelled to fall back on sil- ver. Should this prove true, an im- mediate relief will be given to the surplus of coin now in the treasury departmentat Weshington. Our sil- ver coinage is 3} per cent weight for weight ‘more valusble than the tilver coinage of France, Italy or Germay, and will be considerably absorbed by the natiops of the Latin union. Tag Herald thinks that everywhere clee, a3 well as here, nobody pretends to defend or apologise for Gen, Gar- field's record. Very true, simply be- cause there is no call from the people for any dofense of, or agology for a record which has been endorsed sagain and again by the people of his dis- teiot and etste. General Garfield's +posch to his constituents at War- ren, Ohio, in the fall of 1874 was an ecarnest and manly defense of his offi- cial character, which admitted of no veply, and was so satisfactory o the voters of isirict that he was three fimes subsequently triun.shantly re- later tmed $o congroas, nd clected o Foprescn’ the U. 8. wen>~ Jo Flack, that Mo+ - of the democracy and of Genc {ancock, Senator office ccourred at the hight of the Black Hills miniog fever. Deadwood was the only postoffice in the Hills and Adams made hay while the san shone. He managed to be out of postege stamps nearly all the time and compelled the miners to buy their stamps from hi partner at 1he postoffice news stand, who cherged quarter for every three cent stamp. Tu spite of this lucrative business Adams soon be-ame an em- bezzder. For more than a yearbefore ho wes turned out of the oftice he wes known to ba in default, but his inflc- ential backers at Omaha and Wash- on had bis roguery covered up by ccial agents, who made bogus inves: tigations and whitewasbing report Two years ago the editor of Tu Bre made hisoriginal charge against Adams good by placing an afidavit from Judge Peabody into the hands of General Tyner, which showed Adams to be a common swindler acd de- faulter while acting s insurance agent at Omaba, but General Tyner pigeon holed the document with tho remark that this offense was committed before his appointment as postmaster. The inference tobe drawn from that re- mark was that an appointment as postmaster purges a criminal of all past offenses. Now that Adams is a fugitive from justice, his whitewashers backers and accomplices arc very loud in denoune- ing hkim, and their organ, the Omaha Republican, berates him for run- ning away from the United States marshal. Not many months age the same paper was erowing lustily over Senator Saunders’ failure to dis. | lodge Adams, and tendered public thanks to Paddock and Valentine for the noble figat they had made to us. #ain the fallen confidence-man, —_— Tsx Repullican makes a very tame and decidedly lame defense of Valen. | f tine by coutenting itself with repre- | .| senting him as 2 vietim of slander. “Thurman of Oiio, Alexander Stephens ond Luke Poland, chairman of the Credit Mobilier committee, fully ex- onerated General Garfield of all cor- +upt connections with that branch of Taion Pacific reilroad.

It is the water routes which must and fvril' fur;u-': us cheap transportation of cur product o themarkets, t fhe world: _ While we do not forget the vast utility of the railways, neither can we_ignore the fact that legielative councils, na- tional, state and muvicipal, are large- 1y under the control of the railroads to the detriment of all opposing in- terests and influencas. 1If the eame respect had been paid by corgrets to the necessities of river commerce that hasbeen given to the railroads, the great national highwavs of ths west- ern states would regulate the freight tariff of the country. They would be the balance wheel which would regu. late the price of the movement of 2oods and prodace of every descrip- tion, and place an_effeotua] embargo cn those turtful combinations which annually rob the people of millinns. This power can never ke combatted successfully until there is intelligent co-ope-ation among_river men from the heads of navigation on tho grest rivers to the common exit of thelr waters at the Gulf of Mesico. When the antagonism of the railwa is to be expored, or ‘when some grand scheme for the benefit of river traffic is pro- posed, it should be understood at once all along the line, and united effort made to accomplish the purpose in view. There mustbo a mediom for their expression, which is officially re- cognized, and when an important movement is sdvoca‘ed throvgh this medium there should bs a fund from which to draw to pay the expenses of rlacing the argument before the na- tional law-makers. Cuncerted movement is essential to the accomplishment of such a desider- atum, There should be Joca! associa- tions of thore interested—and all are interested—and these should send representatives to annual and semi- annual meetwgs, or conventions, which mey be assembled at the call of the chief officer of the general arsncia- tion where important action is to ha taken. With such aesnciation, and with an official medium of communi- cation with the publio, the power of the river interests to accomplish im- portaht objects would be imm g bly increased, Tivery distinct busi- ness interest, every profession, every guild has such orcanization and such _of publicatione which exersise the potent influence of “printer’s ink” in their behalf, It is high time that all who are interest od, direc 1y or indirectly, should take more intelligent sction than ever be- fore. This is imperative, if we would accomplish what we want, snd what we must have before the western riv ers can be made what they ought to be—regulators of the freight aud tar- iff of this great western country. We trust, therefote, that delegates end representative men will attend the tiver imorovement convention here on the 234 of September next from sll parts of the Missouri river velley. ——— ‘Tit'es Out of Flace, St Louls Clobe-Democtat, Amacng the incidentel eerviers which Gambetta hes rendered to so- ciety a_ high Flnce should be given to the daring feat recently achizved to him of violently wrenching the e off the name of a French Bishop, who is alto a deputy, snd speaking fof him as Depu'y Freppe!, instead of calling him Monseicneur Ttis neeuless to say that a part of French socieiy, meluding o great de-1 of the best socicty, nearly went in‘o hysterics over the outrage, and his trested Gambetta as if he had just been ommated for congress. Gam- his tide ceems to staud it , and it is quite certain that cvor he has occasicn to mention the B'shop of Angers, who i3 also ths deputy from Brest, tn the c will call him, not Monseignenr the bishop, but Mohsieur the deputy. The mattet is 2 slight one, but not without eignificance. ~ It is stated as a t that the title of Mon ueut, or My Lord, is ene which the Kishopsof fiancs agreed to assume some 200 years ago, with no better authority than their desire to exalt themselves; but even if the title had been conferred by any batterauthority it would still Bs erfet ly prop:r, avd not at all discourreots, to insist that op who sppefi-ed as a deputy in a pational ledislative bedy by virtue of a popular election, left his episcopal titls with his episcopal authority at the door. Inthe French chamber there are admirale, and genera's, and conats and chevaliers, but they are thire not as admirals and coants, but as deputies, and a national legislacive body wl recognized any highor title atnong ita members than that of its memberelip would be inviting contempt. It would be a mistake to suppose that the disregard of titles of France is any evidence that democracy is dis- courteous. On the contrary, that es- sentially democratic pecple bas shown the truest courtesy in the gradusl adoption of a change in the other di- rection. We do not know how Leng it has been the custom to cell waiters in France ‘garcon,” “boy,” bu: re- ceutly well-bred people huye begun to adlress the waiters 55 “‘monsienr” or “sir,” and we cannot but think the change will be as salutary for those who adopt 1t as for the waiters them- selves. Ihere is no better way to wake gentlemen out of any class of people than to treat them as gentle- men, and the people of the United Stetes who have done so much to se- cure and enforce the equality of all citizens, might well take a lesson 1n politeness and democracy from the French, Partly through good nature, parily through lLiziness and partly through suobbishnees we are the most title- ridden democrscy that ever existed. The presid-nt or governcr is his ex cellency, though he is no more excel- lent than anybody else, and the mayor is his honor, and every five-dollar Dackwoods legislator is honorable, and they are all very high and mighty. The infection has spread into prizate life, and every other man is eitker a knight or & sir, or an eminent some. thing, and citizens otherwise sane and sober will walk through the strects in procession holding superfluous ewords in ridicalous attitudes in vindication of their right to ape the bearers of titles of nobility. Melia, where nobility has Lecome so cheap that my lord marquis blacks by barges and other | yoor boots and my lord count drives zels, down to a mar- | our hack. There the titles at least are as genuine as any such sham can bs, but here all our titles of honor are bogus in their pature, and knowa to 50 by thote who wear them snd by those who give them. It is not a great matter hers, nor anywhere, what a man is called, but it would be a re- 1isf if those who are disusted with title mongering would improve the ocersion to administer to American £nobbery a few snubs as timely and as telling s the innovation which has calied down on Gambetta the wrath of clorical and conservative suobbery in Frang — Confed.
