President Boyd, whese in ¢ term of afe 3 with ccting, then delivered hin anuual addross, in which be eaid that, while in Omaha a Board of Trade could not be made a success- fal business mart, yet this body bad cendered valuable service to the city and state in many ways. He alloded to the growth of the clty during the past year and prophesied a ased expenditure of money in per- manent improvements throogh 1881, He considered it almost a certainty that a larze hotel, which is one of dmaha's greatest needs, would bo built on the ground where the Grand Central stood. The arrangoments for such a hotel woald have been made long before this had it not been for xatious law svits, which, it is be- lieved, will soon bs disposed of. 1t was probablo that water would be flowing through the pipes of the water works company by July Ist. Ho called attention to the fact that an devator of at least 1,000,000 bushels sapacity was a great necessity at the oresent time and reviewed the condi- tion of the pork - packing businers here, the orgenizition of man- iacturing compsnics and the oppor- +unity for new ones, the prosperous condition of the wholisale tride of Omaha and the incressing proportions f the retail trade. The need of wiscr mansgement of sublic affairs waa discussed, and the loficiency and failure in putiic im rovements slready underiaken was alluded to. Omahs is now of importance enough to beindependent in her dealings with railroad companies, and to assert and naintain her rights at all times. A new bridge and the ruoning of the trains on eastern roads into this clty are omong the prospects for the pre- sent year. Mr. C. F. Goodman, chairman of the executive committoe, submitted = brief report of the financial opera ions of the board during the past vear. The sssessments per merabar were but fifty couts a month. The anterial aid ance rendered by this body in the erection of now buildings and improvement of grounds or the state fair was among its most mportaut works. Now responsibil ies to be assumed end mew uroblems to be solved durlng the -oming year would require the co- peration of all tax payers and citie ens. The crection at an early day £ a Chamber of Commerce suitable 10 the digni importance of th rowing city was greatly to bo do sired. Mr. W.C. B. Allen, tho rotiri ecrefary, read an address, in w e reviewed the origin, organiz und aims of the board of trade. The fourth annual rep: ha boa ows substantial progress, und indi ates the mothods used for advancing industrisl enterprises, fransportation acilition ana public and. private i provements. The remarkable prosperity of the city in the past and knowledge of the possessicn of those elements of growth which enter into tte material welfare of 3, commanity guaranteo au increase of progress that will give Omal 100,000 populstion within the next ten yers. Daring the past three yeara the railroad tonnage arriving at Omaha has fully doubled, which is found to b the caso in_almcst every branch of business carried on in the entiro siate; and in this e period fally 10,000 people have found cccupatior and homes in eur city. The conclusion drawn from this is that the expansion of trade is far beyond the present population, ard that the great demand for labor and material of all kiuds, taking into consideration the froo homes and cheap lands of Ne- brazke, will cularze the present tide of immigration snd cettlement far beyond auything berotofore known in the history of the state The subjeot of cheaper transporia tion was_discussed, with the methods of bringing about that end. The time for action, tho secretary believed, had now arrived, and Omaha, from her advanced position as the metropolis and home merket for the products of the soil of the northwest, shounld at onc take the inftiatory steps On motion & vole of thanks was tendered to the president, secretary snd chairman of executive com mittee for their roports, and the same was ordered printed in the annual re- port of the board. The treasorer, C. C. Housel, pre. sented his report, showing the re ceipts for the year to be 8603 50.

The Defeat for Howe Proves On= ly a Temporary Check- Speaker Shedd Feasted and Flattered by False Friends. The Opening of the House and Senate—The Governor's Message. ditoril Jorrospondence of T Bsx. Liscowy, January 4, 10 p. m.— Considerable surprise is expressed in many quarters at the defeat of Church Howe and the election of a prenounc- ed anti-monopoly spaakerof the house. Up to 10 o'clock this morning the op- position to Howe appeared sadly de. moralizod; while he and his auppori- ers kept up a bold front and created the impression_that he had a walk- away. By half-past 10 o'clock nearly all tho candidates had beon witbdrawn 2xcepting Slocamb and Shedd. About 11 oclock the republican members, i responze to th eall for a gencral caucas, aszemblad at the hall of the house. Ged Slaughter, chief clock of the late house, w.s chosen temporary the roll and sixty odd members re Quite a livel debate occurred between Mr. Kaley and Church Howo. Kaley reminded tlio caucus that “two of the promi- nent candidates for epeaker were ab- ends may not oven know of the existence of the caucus.” Howe thought there was a *“full un- derstanding about this caucus. We aro here as 4 republican caucus, to vote for thso who are here. There arcGLvctes.” Mr. Kaley agreed with Howa that the absentces thould be 2 by the sction of thia cancus, rovided they were advised by the au- therity of the caucus. Mr. Barilett said ‘“the majerity are here and I know of no better time to sciilo the matter than now. Have beca advized by friends aud am ready to abido by the decision.* Mr Hosietter of Merrick, withdrew from the caucus on the ground that it was not a reprosentativo body ard ho would not be bouud by its actions. Ballottivz then commenced. Church Howe was stll confident of success and flushed wich vie- tory by what he supposed was the withdrawal of the opposition While the balloting was progressing the absontces all came in, and the r sult was, on the informal ballot Howe received 20 votes, Slosumb 13, Shedd 23, Bartlott 2, and Shiek 2. The formal ballot was then ordcred, and Mr. Slocumb's name was withdrawn. The result was, Howe received 30 votes and Shedd 41. Mr. Stedd was then declared tho nomince of the cauous. That cooked Howe's goose. Tncidentally it mey not bo nninter- wsting to mentlon that of all tho ro- publican members of tho delegation from Douglas, only two voted agai Church Howe—Bartlett and Bolln. The democrate, not to bo behind hand, got up a caucus of thefr own and went throtizh all the motiovs as hoy had control of both houses. o of them met “in a_body” and resolved to support Mr. Holman, of Dakota county, for speaker firat, last and all the time. Aud they lived up to their pledge like littlo men. Both houses were caled tegethor nt the appolnted hour. ~ Licutenant Gov- ornor Carns called the senate to crder, and that august body, after appoint- ing their committeo on crcdentiale, adjourned until 4 o'clock. The same course was pursuod in the house, Tho cuicome of these preliminaries has already becn telegraphed, and the only interesting incident worth men | toning is the neat littlo speech deliv- cred by Speaker Shedd in taking pos- sension of the gavel. It was by all «ids the mest appropriate address of tho kiud that has been delivered with- in my hearing i pait ten yoars, { from the same chair, snc 1 am sure it will not worry the réaders of Tus Bi too much to” perass it. Mr. Shedd spole as follows: Heorarsk Mesbers oF itk Lia- ssuaren: 1 thank yon for this prac- tic.l < xpreazion of your regord for me, aud the more becauso of tno eminent qualifications of all the candidates for this position. T accept the honor— not as an honor to myself, especially, but 3 a tnbute to Saunders county, which, having no iacorporated city within its limits, has the largest ag: cultural populstion of any county in the state. Thererofore I acoept my ele s o tribute to that labor which, duritg the years wo all oxpect to see, will lift tho great state of Nebrarka to tho highest place among her peora. It I appre. hend the facts aright the scasion now commencing will uot be a mere winter toliday, but a poriod of exrnest work. Ou this legisiature the paople have devolved a great task, which they ex- pect us to perform honestly, faithfully and earnestly; aud with a wise econ- omy of timeand money. The people will not racognize the clnims of any one act of legislation to absorb or monopolizo attention, but will expect tho legislatare to take ad vantage of all that has been found wisest and best In the judgment of the older etatea to aid in the develop- ment of this newer state. But there must be no crippling of the energles of the state by imperfect legislation, for in the cort of the peoplo plwusible _experiments wili be regarded a3 simplo mistakes. Dol voice your thoughts in the hope that overy perfocted pioce of legislation shall be as permancnt as the noble stracture jonder (referring the new wing of the capital) Again, T thank you, and with any imperfections displayed in the dis charge of my dutier, hope your for- bearance will be as wide as the beau tifal paairics of our adopted state [Applase.] ER. MONGPOLY MOVES. Lixcowy, Neb., January b Scarcely had Mr. Stedd been in- dusted into hia eest before the vul- tures, jubbora and cappers were mak- ing him their object of apecial devo- tion. He was beso: by pretended friends who expressed unbounded joy over his clovation, aud fe ears with flattery. Tho pol managers of the monopoly resorted to their uanal tactics whea they ars beat- cn. Thurston and Lis aides did not dare to bring dicect preasnre upon Mr Shedd, but they exerted their infla- ence indirectly through euch men as Governor Nonce, who is as much a U. P. man as Thurston,and throngh Dis trict Attorney Reese and Judge Post, who are active alltes of his exceliency. They desired to imgrees the speaker with the grave respousibilities that rested upon him in making up tis committees with im- portiality, that is to say they wanted him to be jast as liberal toward the railroads and_the jobbers s he is to- ward the people. Ihad & _few min- utes’ interyiew with Mr. Shedd, and he assured me that he was an inde- pendent man, indebted to no_faction and desired to do his duty with strict fairness and impartlality. I have no n | after he was out of congress than Seu. doubt Mr, Shedd’s intentions are ex- | cellent in the main, but I fear he will lose sight of the fact that he caunot yield to the indirect pressure of the monopoly _represeiitatives and wire pollers, withont betzaywg the sacrad trast reposed in him by his constitu- ents. Mr, Shedd is & new man in pub. | liclife,and he may commit the blunder of allowing pretended friends, | who are sctinz a8 cappers for monopolies acd for senatorial candidates of the monopoly, to bar- cer away important positions on the committees under his very mnose, while ho simply labors tnder” the de- lusion that he is making an inipartial distribution. I admire Mr. Shedd's independence, and hope he will not identify himself with factions while in the epeaker's chair, or commit the serious blunder of classing the pro- ducers of the state; who demand cf this legislature & striot compliancs with its sworn duty in dealing wits corporate monopolies aud senatori candidates of monopoli-s, as 8 p.liti- | al faction, Mr. Shedd is a young ‘man with more than_ordinary talents, aud he has a very bright fature before him if he discards the polioy of trim- ‘mers and fence riders, who protend to beindependent, but always fall over on the sido of eapitaland eorporations. For bis sake as well as for this sako of taxpagers of Nebracka, I hopo he will orgaviz) his committees for wholesomo | legislation in the interest of the peo- ple. ER REGINNING WORK.

E R A RVSURRECTION STORY. An Omaha Man’s Coolness in Dealing With Curious Corpse. Killed, Revived Again. and Killed Me W. M. Erctt, fmy of Omahs, but now residing st Dillon Station, the terminus of the Utsh Northern, #50 miles above Ogden, came in on Monday evening's traia to stay fow days. A reporter of Tug Ber, fn conversation with him, learn- cd that Omaha has several represent- atives in Dillon, among others Mr. Robert Byrne, a brother of the late Jobn E. Byrno, of this city. Con- cerniug this gentleman, Mr. Knott tells a story which will bear repotition for ita flavor of frontier experience. Mr. Bytne ia a carpenter by trade, and has 8 shop in Dillon. About throo weeks ago a chinaman omployed in o restaurant at Dillon, and who was a confirmed oplum eator, dropped dead, as way supposed, on the floof of the restaurant, The proprictof notificd his countrymen who came in one huodred and ffty strong, to look at ihe body, but declined to take it off hia hands or con‘ribute toward a buriai fund. At length the proprie- tor, thrown on his resources, off:red Byrne $10 to take the bedy to hiz ehop and take care of it, and §26 moro to make a coffia and give the bedy a dscent faterment. Mr. Byrao accordingly tock the torpse away, made the coffin and placad the body nd was just putting the lid on to nsil it down, 1 up ross inaman i his o fin snd bogn jabbering heathen Chince ot hin:, Although comewhat eurprisad the pro tem underzaker sent again for the Chinsman, this was the oveniug of tho camo day, snd they opened their hearts so far as to concribute the money to buy a quart of whisky for their . companion, and then leit him in Byraes care. Tio night was very cold and_the undertzker built 3 fire, sat beside it { and drank the whisky with kis corpse, and then Iaid down ona pile of shav. ings and went (0 sleep, leaving John il pright on the bench. As od, tho fire went out, and John got cold and and colder, u til at leagth he fell oyer oa_the floor ard soon frozo stiff, a ‘btiff” suro enough, this time, Byrne was eaved by the liquor he had takenand by his bed of shavings, avd when he ancke and found John dead again he evinced no surprise, but coolly proceeded with the work where ho had left off the day before, John was neilc up and “planted” in good style, and he received his well co own former if it was for his interest & 80,—if ho did_thus he _is welcome to all the credit due him for such cow- ardly support.

Cor. 16th and Mr. Knott vouches for the truth of this story, which wo re- gard as cqual to soms of Mark Traiu's interesting adventures Balcombe va. Hitcheock. o tho Editor of Tur Bre: P.W. Hitcheock ucdoubtedly thinks ho has aunihilated me with his column of attempted sarcasm in yestordsy's Republican, and as it is a low pot- house kind of sarcasm, such as gen- crally emanatea from loafers, T shall Dot answer it.
