This was shown no less by the general disatis- faction expressed on the sireets by citizens, than by the very unanimous vote of the council at their last meet- ing. Any chinge in the present boun- dartes should be made in a manner ‘which will not only equalize the pres- ent voting populatior. In the varions wards but will also make provisicn for the constant groxth of the clty and extension of the line of population toward the city limits. The argument for changing ward boundaries does not vote of the 6th, 4th and 20d wards over thatof the Srd and lst. Itis melther just or right that a ward hav- the oity council with one pollingtwelve bundred o fifteen hundred votes. This inequality which is very notice- able at preseat will become mere and more marked yearly. On this ground i would seem that some division of power. | to 1862, B-'I-flnd-hd-—-l The crowning mistake of the late ad- winistration was the removal of Gen- eral Woodford from the position which he had so highly honored, merely for the gratification of a personal spite against Senator Conkling and his fol- lowing in New York state. This mis- take General Garfield will not repest. On the other hand the new exeou- tiveand his cabinet will find many positions whose ccoupants should be removed In the Interests no less of the people than of the sdministration. Pablic servants who have forgotten that offices are not created solely for the personal aggrandizement of office holders, and who from loug tenure or otherwise, have become Inattentive to the wants and needs of the public, will doubtless be given an opportuni- ty to hand in their resignation or give way to more efficlent sucoessors. —— Wirn the appointment and confirm- ation of the cabinet the grest dramaof office-seeking, which has been on_the hoards since it was known that Gar- field was elected, reached its climax, and by degrees the nation will settle down agaln into the peace which 1t Is fortanate enough to enjoy on an aver- age of about three years out of four. Looking over the feverish scrsmble which, from the four quarters of ‘the mation, centered for many months at Mentor, and later at Washington, one cannot say that the pletare Is admirable from any polnt of view. If the turbulent, jostling aspirants were intent merely on serving their country, the case would be different and we mfght con- gratulate ourselves upon noble army of patriots. But out of all the candi- dates for appolntive offices it ls not probable that a single one was anl- mated by any feeling other than that selfish smbivion. To get ““the other fellow out” and to get himself in—to en{iay elther the emoluments or the political power of the office, has been the motive of every one of them. Not a single ray of unselfishness or pa- triotem of mobility illaminate the darkness of the plotare.—[Republican. This Is the most unkindest cat of ‘What must Phineas W. Hitch- cock think of this uweeping statement of the basis of his aspirations for pub- lie office? Even if “to get the other fellow out and to get himself in” was his sole motive, how cruel that the secret should be exposed by his own organ to the game of a suspleions ~ and mot over partial poblic. How {ll advised to publish the motives that actuated that literary burean in their efforts to folst a_political corpse into the ad- ministration arens, and to boldly an- nounce when the effort was mot a sucoess, that “not a single ray of un- selfishness or patriotism or nobility tllominates the darkness of the pic- tare.” What If the picture was “‘not admirsble from any polnt of view.” What if out of all the candidates for appuintive offices, it s not propable that a single one was actuated by any feeling otber than that of selfish am- bition?” Is it mecessary that the or- gsu which most persistently pushed the clatms of one of the unsuccessfal candidates, should tesr aside the vail in this ruthless and cruel manner? If the Republican deserts Hitchoock, who will remain for him? — Tux railroad organs throughout the country are taking up the cue of Stan- ford and Fink, snd Insisting that cor- porations should be treated by the stato on exactly the sam» basis as in- dividuals. ‘They urge that individual merchants and busines men are granted every liberty in the conduct of their private affairs un!rammelled by all restricting laws, excepting the great law of self-interest and competition, which prevents injury to the public and acts as the balance wheel to avar- foe and extortionate impulses. Even were it for s moment admitted that s corperation and an individual could e placed on the same footing, with a due regard to the interests of the state, it would be an easy matter to show that they mever have been governed by thesame Jaws of trade, and from the very pature of their methods of their methods of transsoting bustness, ‘never canbe. The argument univer- sally used by the railroad consolidat- ora ia that competition smong rallroads asa regulator of freight tarifis has been a fallure. When the slightest semblance of competition begins to show itaelf, pooling arzangements are at once entered into between the roads on the ground that any compe- tition is demoralizing and unjust to the public, and tends to flnctuating rates which-other shippers are called upon to equalize. Pooling is not competition, even if the pool fa - made. by competifig Jines. - Experience has shown that in railroading under the present system of management, com- petiBon does not” compate, nor pub- lished tariffs afford protection to the public. There is absolutely no paral- lel between.the competition of trade and the competition of raflroads and the rallroad managers are fally -aware of the fast. - ——— THE wholesale arrests in Ireland reported by the cable would shame the rule of the Turk. They are a dis- grace and a reproach 1o a goverament which professes to be guided by con- stitutional -principles, and to be founded upon liberty and justice. —— Taz bench and the bar are rallying to the support of Judge Black’s opin- lon, that railways are public high- ways.

Blalne was born in Wash- ington county, Pa., January 31, 1830, Ho tanght in the south for some time and settled In Maine about the year 1551 Ho engaged in journalism, and was oditor of The Kennebec Journal from 1852 to 1858, and of The Port- lsnd Daily Advertiser from 1858 Maine legislatare, serving froms 1857 ber of oongress by the republicans, » position which he has since filled. He was spesker of the house several years, Willism Windom, the new secretary of the treasury, is another Ohio man, having been bora in B Imont county, that state, na, 10, x;m, and 1‘; now very nearly 54 years of age. He re- e:lrv’-d an mdeLIu education, and was. admitted to the bar in 1850. Two years afterward he was elected prese- cuting attorney of Know county. In 1853 he mnv;{m Minnesota, and In 1858 he was elected & representative in congress. From that time to this he has been 8 member of one or the other branch of the National legisla- ture. In the XXXVIth congress he served on the committer on pub- le lands, in the XXXVIItl on the committee of public expendi- tures, and in the XXX VIIIth he was ohalrman of the commitee on Indisn affairs and of the special committee which visited the Indian tribes of the west in 1865. He was again at the head of the committee on Indians* in the XXX IXth congress and waschair- man of the special committee on the commissioner of Indlan affairs. He served on the committee on the death of President Lincoln, and in 1866 was a delegate to tho_Philadelohia loyal- Iate’ convention. Trelve years of con- tinuous 'service in the house had brought him prominently before the eves of the people of Minnesota, and on the death of United States Sena tor ‘Norton in 1870, Mr. Win- dom was appointed hfs suc- ceasor. Ho was subsequently elected for the term ending in 1877, and re- elected, serving as chalrman of the committee on enrolled bills, transpor- tation, and member of the committee on appropriations. He is regarded as pre-eminently a practical man, and thoroughly "conversant with the in- ternal commerce of the country, its transportation by lake, river, canal, snd rail, and theagricultural interests and resources of the country. At the last republican national conven- tion he was prominently mentioned in_connection with the presidency, and the delegates from Minnesota were instruoted to vote for him. Personally, Mr. Windom Is robust in health, prepossessing in appear- ance, and genlal and hospitable to a degree that makes him very popular, Robert Todd Lincoln, the only sur- viving ohild of Abrabam Lincoln, is 87 years of age. He was born in 1843, at Springfield, Illinols. He fitted for college at Phillips’ academy, Exeter, N. H. He entered Harvard ocollege, 'gdludng in the summer .of 1864. war wae still In progress, and young Lincoln entered the army, taking a place on the staff of Gen. Grant, with the rank of captain. He served in Virginia through the remainder of the war, and was present at the surrender of Ap- pomaitex, He then entered the Har- vard law achosl at Csmbridge, and pursued thestudy of law. Complet- ing his law studies, he came to Chica- g0, and shortly afterward, was ad- mitted to the Illinols bar. In 1872 he became the law partner of Edward 8. Isham, with whom he has remain- ed ever since. Politicaly he has ways been a staunch and rather rigid republicsn, He has taken but little B in politics, having no inclinations n that direction. He_took no active part in politles until last fall, when as between men, he favored Gen. Grant as the republi- can candidate for the presidency. He was a member of the state convention at Springfield, and was appointed & delegate to the national convention. but gave up the place in favor of Ste- phen A. Douglas, jr. He was a proes- idential elector on the state ticket in the last campaign. He was married in 1869 to a daagh- ter of Senater Harlan, aud is the father of three children. Mr. Lincoln is regarded ss a young man of great vigor, ability and exe— cutivef capacity; remarkable, like his ther, for his sound common sense and good judgment, unaffected and modest to & fault, indefatigably industrious, laborious and energetic in all that he undertakes.

Issue. W, Y. Sun, The manifest disposition of th publio to abate some of the moat ob- vions and most grievous abuses of rallway management has awakened the ers to a full sense of the frailty of the tenure by which they hold thelr self-assumed power to tax according to their pleasure the busi- ness of this country, In the conduct of which they are only one of the *Sie Jowot, of th . Jowett, of the Frle, early em- ed the verviees 3" TS or Curtis to anawer Judge Black and the chamber of commerce. Then the Central Pacific road responded through its president, Gov. Stanford, ina publication whose absurd assamp: tions of railway superlority over the state, the laws and the public in‘erests muat have done fi:. cause it was in- toserve a deadly injury. The i has boen 10 & condl: tion little short of volcanle, and the lesser organs of monopoly, main- tained from the private purses of the maguates, or by tributes under vari- duces an array of most delustve figures to sbow that the people have suffered nothing whatever from the extortion of the railroads; that the latter are not monopolies, and that the owners of those properties are bubllc benefac- tora who have built up the country at thelr private expense, and enriched all other nlau;n:lldtndlnazh%u {m- verishing t] ves. igures g:h.lbidn; the earnings of the whole mass of railways in the United States, and the relation of those earn- ings to the original investment, as- sumed and returned, are well calen- Isted to mislead and muddle the in- quiring mind. So also with the ap- palling proportion of bankruptey. Bat Mr. Fink is careful not to recog- nize the fact that the public contro- versy is not with all or even a con- th | siderable proportion of the roads, but with the great roads, with the mono- polizing roads—in fact, with the trunk lines which he serves, and which in their efforts to qrush honest open com- petition have destroyed their rivals and produced that widespread bank. raptoy of which he complains. or does he tell his reader that the profit on the capital of those same trunk lines, of which he makes still another delusive - exhibit, is reduced by thelr eternal frelght wars, and that what is unjustly exacted from the pa- tient public goes te make up the de- fiotencles ocoasioned by these tremen- dous conflicts. Nor does he say how much of the legitimate profitsof ratlroading, which any honest system belong to the shareholder, is absorbed by inside Credit Mobllier rings, fast freights, express companies, and similar swindles. If Mr. Fink will collate some au- thentic statistics on these points he will meke himself very interesting. We might then be able to learn how itis that in the midst of the bank- ruptcy of many companles, which he s0 pltifally deplores, the private for- tunes of men who build here and wreck there growinto the hundreds of millions, while the small shareholder 18 wiped out on the one hand, and the small shipper Is strangled on the other. EARLY DAYS IN NEBRASKA. By E. A. Davis. (Soventh Paper.) ‘Thelmmigrant was made disheartened at the loss of his horses, and was really Inabad fix. He ws neither able to stay or go away. It was a sad blow financially too, for the horses were valued at $160 each, and would have readily sold them for that money, as they were large, able farm horses, pertectly sound und gentle to handle. Thelr owner intended to use them to break prairle with Instead of oxen, and would not have parted with them for double thelr valae. When he found we dld not recover them, and thinking it uscless to waste time In looking further for them, he hired some one to ¢ake his wagon and family to Omahs, and that is the last Tever saw orheard of him. Had we been as wiso then as In after months wo conld no doubt have found both the thieves and the horses without much trouble or without going & great dis- tance. From thst ilme on, the theft of horses and cattle became common in Nebraska, There was little of it done In the immediate _vicinlty of Fonta- nelle, but we could hear complaints in different directions, and many persons passed through our town looking for stolen or strayed stock. In October of thb same year I bought a handsome black pony from a Mr. Brainard who kept a store a* Fon- tanelle, One day In the latter part of e month, & gent'eman who had built a cabln on Logan creek, about twenty miles distan,, came into the settlement to do some trading at my fathers store, and invited me to go home with him, and shoot ducks for » couple of days, whioh, he said, were plenty in the immediate vicinity of his house. I acoepted the offer, and by five o’clock we were ready to start. I tled my pony behind the wagon, threw in a roll of blankets and a supply of maunition, and we set off.” He h; ox team, but they were remarkably good walkers, and being headed fo home made fair time. The night was a besutiful one; the moon was full, b it was almost as light as y. The trail was plain, and we lald down in the wagon on hay and blankets and let the cat- tle travel at thelr own gait. The road was almost level, being most of the way on a divide, with scarcely a_hill until Logan creek was reached. How long we lay there talking, undistarbed bv the loud yelpings of the coyotes, which were then ous, I do not know. Finally we went to sleep, and gwoke to find the cattle standing still and the wagon stopped. Gelting out, we found the pony gone, The rope, which wasa new inch rope, had been untled and_the pony stolen, How long the act had been committed wercould mot tg]l. It may have been before we went to - sleep—perhaps after. At all events no pony was in sight. We walked back a mile or more, but could see nothing of the animal; then returning to the wagon we drove on toward Logan creek. The next day we scoured the coun- tryback to Fontanelle, but to no urpose. Then I_rode over to the Peviee ‘village, and made a trip up to he Omsba reservation at Black gl.rd Hills. But the pony was gone be- yond recovery. The reader will perhaps remember that st about the time of which I write some twenty or thirty horse- thieves had been caught and hung in Towa by indignant vigilance commit- tees. Thes:, scoundrels :.d. power- fal organization, extending through Ohlo, Indiaus, Hilnois, Iows, i sourl, Nebraska and Kansas, to Indian territory. This organization bad its regular officers, pass-words, grips, etc., and defied the law with im- panity. The shrewdest detectives were for a long time baffled and uns- ble to srrest any of the gamg. So well were they organized, 80 bold and de- fiant did they become, that the people were forced to organizeand arm them- selves in self-defense. Hundreds of horses and cattle were stolen; emi- grants were murdered and their teams stolen, and all manner of depredations committed. Not only this, but the country was flooded with counterfelt ‘money, both paper and silver, but no- body could tell who “shoved the queer.” This wey an alarming state of aff. aire, and e’allod for vigorous measures. The law with its vexatios dolays was too slow. Besldes, if the erimtnals had money to buy lawyers and juries, they invarlably escaped conviction when caught. One of the most dan- gerous elements of the ‘‘Brotherhood of ,” was that they were pledged by & most sacred and binding oath to contribute money for the lib- eration of any of their fellow-thieves and_counterfeiters who fell into the hands of the law. Numbers of sus. pected persons were arrested, but they invariably proved an alibt, er that they were respectable tradesmcn or farmers, or escaped on some other . Conviction was impossible, every horse-thisf and counterfeiter caught., 3 . A committee did not go together in suspected parties, and they were shad- owed night and day. Often those se- cret detectives wluld stay every night, &l s of men eved to be bad citizens, and when the drop fell, when they canght them in_thelr deviltry, there was no court, no judge, no jury. Exeontlon was suaden, qui- et, swift and sure. The public did not know who done the hanging. But when the people passed along the road and sawa man swinging to s rope labelled ‘Horse Thief," they made no inquiries, but went about thelr busi- ness and let the wretch hang, In fact, it was dangerous show sympathy open- ly, beoanse the sympathizer was in danger of being *shadowed” and strung upalso. But Towa was rld of horse thieves in & ehort time, and the dangerous or- ganization in that atate broken up. It was found that many persons who were supposed to be honest, hard working farmers, mechanios and store- keepers belonged to the gang of thieves and counterfeiters In Towa. Aud this was why detection and con- viction was impossible, and justice baffled for 80 long time. Legg, and his hired () men, at Fontanelle, began to be suspected of crookedness. Severalsuspicious things had transpired which caused psoéanh to be on their , and it was finally hinted that wass bad man and would bear watcl About thie time B. W. Legg, who was alwaya flush with ‘money, took a trlp to Ohlo, and while there was ar— rested and ’twenty-one - indiotments found against him for horse-stealing. He was s member and leader of the Brotherhood, and while he directed affairs and ocoaslonally ‘made a trip” off, for the most part he remained at l:gmr? in the qalet seclusion the place forded. There 1s no doubt that Legg and his accomplices stole the emigrant’s hors- es already recited, as well as the pony spoken off, and that at the time we wero hunting for those animals they wore hid In ane of the ravines near town, or on their way to the Missourl river. T never ki+w what became of Legg and his Fonwnelle property. It is evident now that the numerous thefts of horses snd stock fn that, and other portions of Nebrask, was the work of Legg and his gang, and for which the Indians were blamed and consured. {To be continued.)
