A correspondent from Stromsburg $:rwards tc Tax Bex » freight bill for charges on a car o osl from Council Bluffe to Stroms- burg, sud makes the following state- ‘ment: “T had » car of coal sent to me from Galra, Henry county, IlL., for distri- bution among the poor families n this place. The valueof the osal combin- od with the freight from Galva, 1L, toOouncil Blufls was $45.00, the U. P. charges on the "corl _frem Council Blufis to Stromsburg were $64.78. How s this for just discrimination?” This 1= only & ssmple of the out- Tages aod extortionate charges under which the pecple of Nebraska are suf- fering at the hauds of the railroad monopolies. It is such outrsgeous plondering of the producers that has THE SOCIALISTIC MOVEMENT IN GERMANY. Avarlety of causes combine to ren- der the German empire the hot bed of the most advanced soclalistic dis- cussion of the present day. Even, Geneva, for so long the centre of aitation on this subjects has ylelded ber clsims to those of Berlin;, and Rochefort, Clemencesu and Beaure- paire of France wield but a feebls in- fluence in the ranks of the brotherhood ~ when compared with the great leaders of German wocialism, Liebkneck, Bebel and Hari- men. In Germany, more than in any other country on the continent, the re- pressive laws of the government, tho practical denial of the rights of public meeting and public discussfon of po- litical affairs by ths working men, joined with the underhand suspension of laws passed for, the benefit of the middle and lower classes hsve silently but steadily fostered the growth of a socialistic body.of thinking men who are makingz their influence powerfully felt, and powerfully dreaded in the Empire. In Germany alone are the soclalistic theorists sufficlently educated and suf- ficiently trained in military affairs to cause well grounded alarm. The uni- versal conscription is yearly giving an army educstion to thousands of sble-bodled citizens who are in- wardly chafing under the politi- cal and social condition of affairs, and who return to thelr homes, after their term of military service is completed, with the full knowledge that a million of their countrymen, equally well trained in the use of arms, hold the same opinions as}their own'and only awalt a favorable opportunity cf show- Ing their strength. That the social democrats are fully organized ia seen from their recent susertiun of power st the polls. At the last gror:)eéll elec- tion. the party cast 600,008 votes, and in} Hamburg, their candidate, Hartmann olled twice zs many votes a8 his two competietors both of whom were openly and avowedly opponents of socialism. The Socialistic revolt in Germany bas been defined as “the revolt of industralism, sgainst mitairism,” the protest of the people agalnst a class of hereditary officials and imperlal bureaucrats whom they have learned to hate more than a foreign foe. The German socislists are endeavoring to do away with what they consider the tyranny of capital, s pow- er which one of their leaders has de- nominsted as the modern incarnation of the slave driver without the slave driver's interest in thelife of his prop- erty. They look upon the vast accu- walation of individual capitel as det- rimental to the best iunterests of the pecple, and believe that the state or ‘manlcipality should be the sole capi- talis: investing its mesus for the commou benefit. They picture for themselves in the near futare a politi- cal and soclal Utopia where self inter- est shall be merged into & desire for the common welfare, where ecach in- dividual shall ase his powers for the benefit of his fellows and where & reign of perfect equality shall result, in which the full development of hu- mau energles shall be the sole object and general advautage the common end. Thists theglowing vision which a late writer in the Ninetzentn Century holds up to the gazé of the world as the ultimate attalnment of German socialism. For the present, the lead- ers are prepared to admit that the realization of hls vision is not possl- ble. Society is not yet ready to at- tain to this lofty conception of its right aud privelege. The thoughtful minds in the party are therefore de- voting their energics to counteract the policy of centralization in the Empire, to contend for indi- vidual liberty and the rights of the working classes, and to insist upon a due respect belng paid to the munici- palities by the government. It would seem that Prince Bismarck is blind to the terrible power which is slowly gathering its colls about the imperial fabric which he has woven, and which at no distant day will threaten the foundstion of the German government. The conscription still goes on; the standing army is increased; rigid laws of terrorism are enscted and while gnarding against a forelgn foe he is only providing the ‘means for domestic revolulion. Not three months az~ a socislistic deputy in the German Reichetaz boldly avowed that “failing to modify the laws which had been enactsd to crush them for the next six years they must try force.” German soclalism is daily completing its organizaticn and within the next decade is likely to make it- self felt with a power which will fall nothing short of revelation. — TEE trunk lines from the seaboard to the lakes are not overjoyed at the step taken by the New York legisla- ture for the removal of all tolls on the Erie canal, making its use entirely free. A joint resolution to that effect passed the lower house of that body last week, by a yote 76 t029. The resolution contemplates material im- provement on the canal, which, with needed repairs, shall be met by gen- ersl taxstion. This s one of the most radical movements agaiust the encroachments of monopolies yet re- corded, and indicates the rapld crys- tallization of populat sentiment apon that subject. —_— Jav Goun thinks M. Do Lestep's Pansms canal is all wind incloding the stook and shareholders. It evi- dently differs from Gould's stock-job- bing achemes which are PERSONALITIES. Colonel Ingersoll's rallroad retainers are said to exceed $20,000 annually, Riley, ths bug man, has a grievance against De Luc and carried it to Men- tor. < Edison has eet up his lsboratory In New York Oity and hopes to make his light burn at last. Senator Jones, of Florida, is an Irishman, a devont Catholic and s carpenter by trade. Jay Gould is so superistitious he will never travel any distance. unless compelled to, and then never on his’ own rosds. The Boston Journal says that “‘the Princess Louise is fond of music and a good singer,” but it does not give the singer’s name. The Baroness Burdett-Coutts pro- roses to bring her recent purshase over to this country next summer. It will come in free’of duty. Senator Brown, of Georgla, denies that he is & milllonaire, and declares that in all Georgis, there isn't & man who, having paid his debts, is worth a milli . The late Senator Carpenter's law library is ssid to be valued at $40,000. The Milwaukee Sentinel estimstes that he Ioft about $100,000 besides the $50,000 of life insurance. Senator-elect Miller, of Californis, not long ago rose in one of Mr. Moody’s San Francisco meetings aad asked prayers for himself in his en- deavor to lead a Christian life. I Gen.

Judging from what is commonly snid concerning Mr. Jay Gould, the father of his country might as well have spared himself the trouble of a birthday. There is no doubt that Washington meant well, and that he worked hard to cstablish free govern- ment in North Awmerica; but his work has lasted only a century, and Mr. Gould is now on the point of com: pletely and torever destroying it. There was a_time when Mr. Gould, viewed as a financial phenomenon, was comparatively little larger than a man's hand; but he has since dark- ened the whole heavens with his balefal shadow. So long as he was supposed to be merely engaged in makivg s fortune the public cared little about him, but he has now thrown off the mask, and is seen in the act of setzing not only the su- preme power of the ation, but all our powers, our bodies, and to s Iarge extent our souls. Controlling, as he now does, the telegraph system of the coustry, vast lines of rai and two, if not three, of the newspapers belonging to the Associated Press, he has the standing-placs from which he can not merely ruin, but utterly upset, the free” government that Washington and bis assotiates estab- lished. If we muy believe all that is sald of Mr. Gould, healresdy controls ns one kuows precisely how many trunk lines of railways, aod he can at no very distant period control every trunk line in the csuntry. He can depress the stock of this, or ‘bull” the stock of that road, 80 as to make miliions of dollars, and he can do this every week in the year. With the meaus already at his command he can readily and rapidly gain possession of every great line of railroad conneoting the eset with the west and the uorth with the south. Being thus master of the railwsys, he can levy tolls at his pleasare, and re- ceive revenues grester than those of any existing governmen:. With such untold millious in his possession there will be no possible combination of capitalists or patriots that can worst him. To the controlof the telegraph lines Mr. Gould is now eaid to be determin- od to add the control of the Associated and it is popularly bel by the purchase of one more newpsper he will achieve this end. He will thus, to a large extent, control what has been the free press of America, The newspapers will print only such news as ho allows the telegraph wires to carry, and will express his opinions with the Gidelity now exhibited by the Tribune and World. Mr. Gould can thus elect the next_presi- dent, even withcut incurring the ex- penss of buying the nominating con- vent'ons. He can have one of his repre- sentatives nominated by the republi- cans and one by the democrats, a0 that whatever may bs the result of the election his candidate will be elected. He will likewise pack con- with men who will be thorough- y subservient to him, and can thus effectually prevest any leglslation which might interfere with his plans. There would still remain the supreme court, but no one can suppose that he will long permit it 1o retain its inde. pendence. Even if he cannot secure on of Mr. Stanley Mat- sooner or later contrive to bave any vacsncies that may ocour filled in such s way as to provide against the contingency of declsions hostile to his interests. When the day arrives that shows us Mr. Jay Gould controlling the three branches of the national government, the railroads, telegraphs, and press of the cotatry, he will be the autocra’ of America as truly as Alexander is the sutocrat of Russis, He willsit in his private office and dictate legisla- tion as he pleases, and levy indirect taxes for the benefit of his personal pecket. The people will be entirely helplesss The press will be silent, aud the expression of any opinion hostile to the wish of Mr. Gould will be punished, not by imprisonment, duth‘,e:‘; ;yo&l the ;lol-nt ‘methods pract ai espots, but the switt and -:3 finaucial ruln‘;’l the rash victim. The autocrat will not veed to surround himself by an army; but he will governnone the less du&otiully under the forms of laws. He can crush out any industry in a single day, and reduce whole provinees to beggary, and can reward supporters with a magnificence which no Roman emporor ever”exhib- jted. In that day Mr. Genld will own about fifty million slaves, whote slav- ery will be aa real, if not as apparent, as that of the four millions of south- ern negroes before the rebellion. This is not a pleasant prospest, and to some people it may seem a bad varlety of nightmare. Ne e~ less, if we sre to believe the various that can prevent his suc- cess. Every day it is announced that made by some vast stock o If these rumors are true, nothing but e death of Mr. Gould can hinder | him from gaining a greater power than |hat ever wielded by any msn since Oonstantine. Perhaps, after all, Mr. Jay Gould is not the formidablo person_ he is reprosented fo be. Undoubtedly, he does own & good many miles of rail- road, but it _may not be true that he buys a new trunk line every dsy at 10:30 a. m. Undoubtedly he owns The Tribune and The World, and pos- sibly he Is unfortunate enough to own The Express, but man may indulge in vioes of this sort without hurting anybody but himself. He may own several senafors, but somehow Mr. Stanley Matthews 1s yet unconfirmed. Finally, it msy be trae that 50,000,000 of Americans will allow Mr. Gonld’s foot to rest on_their neck, and then agalu perhaps tkey will not. ) THE RECONSTRUCIED SOUTH. A NEW AND 6ENERAL DEVELOPMFNT OF ART AND INDUSTRY, Edward Atkinson, in the Internatienal Review In the market gardens of Norfolk, Charleston, Savannah and elsewhere, the well-directed work of white and colored laborers alike leaves little to ba desired In comparison with work of alike kind at the north. In the At- lantic Southern states the number of small farms will soon give to these states larger number of conservative citizens than will be found ip any other equal section of the country. To these small farmers especially bave the centralizing and undemocratio tendencles of the bourbens become most_oppressive; they arerapidly or- ganizing to regain local self-govern- ment and their right to elect their own maglstrates, county nfficers; assessors and the like, They resist tho ssme per caplta rosd taxes agd other m cds of legislation that oppress th black, by meaus: of which the b e bons hava attempted to disoriminate against both classes, and, as they have ceased to dread the assertion of social equslity and intercourse on the part of the black eince they have found that no such assertion is made, white and black voters are lesrning to co- operate in defense of the rights which are essential to both races, _On all lo- cal questions the south is dividing in every section, and it will never again submit to the bourbon rule, even on national questions. In the mechanic and manufacturing arts, if comparisons be made with the barbarisms of the anti-war perlod, the progress is almost marvelous. Vil- Iages are springing up; the country store is established; centres of indus- try are forming. ‘the south now bas at Chattanooga the largest linglla ten- nery in the country; the sole leather of Louisville takes a leuding place among the bast, if not the best; wood is being worked in many forms, and the chief supply of the best ash, oak and walnut, for eastern cities, is now found south of Mason and Dixon’s line. Nashville is said to possess the lavg st wagon factory in the country; iron is being made at the lowest cost and of the best quality in many places, and Pittsburg feels the necessity of conatructing new lines of rallroad to reach the southern mines, in order to maintain her place. Norfolk con- tests the palm with Baltimore in the canning of oysters, literally employ- ing thousands of persons In that in- dustry. In Richmond, wwo_carpet- baggers, who carried full sized trunks and stayed, employed some hun-ireds of women in the mavufacture of cigar- ettes that are mostly made from to- bacco of the finest quality, grown n places and on l:nds which ten years since, no one knew to be fit for grow- ing any tobacco even of the coarsest kind, ~ Elsewhere, in every direction, arts and industries that are old to us, but new to the south, are_starting into vigorous life atd creating mew conditions which will not permit sec- tioral antagonism any longer. —_— * The Empire State. From Densus Statis.fcs. The exact population of New York state by the census of 1880 is b,082,- 982. New York's gain in population in the ten years from 1870 to 1880 was 700,223; an increase greater thau the entire present population of any one of these twelve statea: Colorado, Con- necticut, Delaware, Florida, Maine, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginla., All twelve of these states combined do 1ot contaln as many people as New York. They fall nearly s million short. Add to the total of the twelve the population of either Arkansas, California, Louisians, Msryland or Minnesota, and New York is ahead of all thirteen together, New York state has more inhabi- tants than all New Englaud. It has more inbabitants than all New Eng- with California thrown in. Re-inforce the population of Ohio, Including all the officeholders, with the united populations of New Hamp- shire, Rhode Island, Delaware, Florida, Coloradn, Nebraska, Nevada and Oregon, and you have almost ex- actly the population of New York. Of New York's populstion of five millions, 2,713,021, ¢ ewhat more than one-half, live in cities and towns of over 10,000 population. The re- maining two aud a quarter millions may be properly called countrymen. There are in the state thirty-nine cltles and towns of over 10,000 pop- alation.

Daxa, Neb., Feb. 224, 1881. To the Editor ef The York Tidal W In looking over last week’s ‘“‘Re- publican” I saw an artlcle that claims sttention. It was well written and the boys set it up in good shape; here 18 an extract from the article: “The ebjects of the Alliance are worthy every farmer's and business man’s attention, but it wousd be the height of folly to_commit the organ- ization to men who would bring a caree on the best cause under the sun.” 3 Now would any one suppose fora minute, that just because Allen Root has written a fow articles for Tar Omana Bee in favor of the Alliance movement that the ‘‘organization has been committed” to bis care? It is considared by all Intelligent people that it Is purely a farmers movement and has been and is committed to the it, and doee the editor of The Repub- lican ailow himself to think that the farmers and business men of this cnn-o:i t::b-t mhl = beneath the ive & er lon] of i the man than that and so should su edi- tor when he engages himaelf in taking $1.50 from s farmer in payment for & shoet that he claims s printed in be- half of the farmers.

In the same article he says those two partles aro ‘hopelessly | busted.” Then we have nothing to foar from them of leading the farmers estray, yet with poor grace he the farmers to -%‘:ht shy” of ‘““fool friends.” Now! why don’t he come out like a man of might and make this Alliance movement s republican move- ment and a republican success? This in the reason he does not. He dare not; he knows that the representa- tive men, or in other words the lead- ers of the republican party almost 0 a man (the editor of THE OmamA Bre excepted) ate sold out body and soul to the railroan men, and farther, he knows that- should any ‘“paid tool” or “whippal.;&n" of these “‘rep- resentative men” advocate openly and fearlessly the Alliance, that they would immedistely set down on him and crush him out of his political ex- istence, Knowing all this he will do pothing only ridicale the Alliance movement, and say that he will wait, and see see what- the representative men are going tajdo, *“walt for them to make amove My brother farmers they are not going to make a move in the right direction; we have got to make the move, Tt strikes me very foroibly that the reason this aforesald editor calls especial attention to Allen Root, s simply because he s one of Nebraska's bold and fearless farmers, and onme of those kind of men that means buai- nees, and enough of just such farmera will make the Alliance a success, not,/by taking of it but by helping by ' Now I hope the farmers of this ‘oounty will not allow this hue and cry sbout the Alliance being a political draw-off, &s., to retard the movement, It 1s nothing of the kind.
