As the statement was both unaut and uatrue in this ired: ‘We modestly confess that we are not conversant with the customs pre- valent at the “refined” court of St. James, (Garfeld), but from our plebian stand-poiot it strikes us that soch » disolaimer is decidedly indeli- cate, i not~ sbeolutely rude; more especially when it is borne in mind that it is & ‘reflection on the so- cial standing of a8 gentleman who is in every respect the peer of the charm- ing and accomplished danghter of our senator, and has always enjoyed the estoom of ouf best eitisens. | Of course we must admit that refinement in Nebraska has ot reached the per- foction that is found in the circle for which Mr. Brooks is the spokesman, and in which jast now he cuts such » conspl cuons figare. — Rarwax extension in the south west in prooseding with remarkable rapidity, and the line which s to con+ nect the new Eldorado with the United States by » band of iron, is being The Mexioan roads will be in connce- tion with the Atchison, Topeks and the Guli of Mexico, across the coun- try to the Pacific, but recestly the system has been greatly extended, so that pow it covers u large ares of ‘couutry aad touches many important points. Tne Mexican schemes insti- tuted by the eastern capitalists are ta be independent of the md&:h it ] the rovds will operated :'fl.fl. termd, an3, fin fact, will be operateb as ove gigantic organ- Szation. Thres franchises have been geanted to the company from the Mexican gov- ernment, the first of which gave per- mission to build from the City of Mexico to Leon on the north. An ex.ended franchise was then obtained %0 aperate » line from Leon to Kl Paso del Norte, where junction is made | with the Atchison road, forming » through line from the Missourl river st Atchison and Kansas City to the Oity of Mexico. Another franchise has been acquired for a cross country line from Tampico, on the Gulf of Mexico, to San Blas, on the Pacific coast, snd a con- cemlon to operate a line from ‘Gusymas on the Gulf of Californiato » junction with the Santa Fein New Mexico. All these concessions are exempt from taxation, including every- #hing pertaining to the road, for & pe- riod of fifty years, together with fit- teen years' exemption from import duties on the materisl necessary for the construction of the roads. All fhis - is supplemented by a snbsidy of $8,500 for each kilomster of the rosd ecomstructed. \The line between Mexico and Leon must be completed to Lrapusto by the end of the coming year, and ov to Leon ‘within the next year. The authority to operate for ninety-nine years has been granted. At the end of that time, the lines in good condition and free of debts, will be purchased by the povernnent. the cost of constructing the road and telegraph lines from Merxico to Leon is estimated at £5, 400,000. Tae matn object of the change in our charterand in our school law, sbolishing ward boundaries aod re- quiriog the election of board of edu- eation avd six councilmen at large was to improve the standard of the candidstes. Kxperience has tanght us that jobbers and wire pullers who are netortously incompetent, can pack 3 primary in their owa ward and then pull through a elty election without very much trouble wheress, if these men were compelled to run the geuntlet of the four thousand voters of thecity; they would be left. Now, i this reform is to be effcc- tive it must be begun with ‘the coming ity government. The spectacle of the president of » board of educstion packinga ward pri- mary and iostractipg the delegates to have him nominated ‘at large for the new board is simply disgracefal. No ‘man ought to be elected to the bosrd of education who is scrsmbling for the offie. Thereis no money in it for an honest msn, and! scheming mea who want to make use of the position for political ends or for folsting their pets and relatives upon our public schoels, should mever be elected to the the position. It would be far better for the republican -conven- tion and the democratic convention to make no nominations f6r the board of education, but let our best citizens in mass convention, regirdless of party, nominate six first-clase men. In the maiter of councilmed at latge, the Bominations of candidates in the re- spective wards should slmply be re- garded by the ccnvention &s & recom- mendation. It would have beens great deal better if esch ward/had or four first-class men object is to get good business men, whose Integrity is above suspicion, and it doesn’t matter where they. live a8 long as they ate representative men, in whose hands the matorial in- terests of this city sre safe. The only questions that should be asked are, *Jo he honest!” *‘Js he competent!” — LITERARY NOTES.

Tae Iudian of poetry is a different character from tne Indian of tact. Romance has woven many s chain of flowera over the dirty and bratal sav- age, who is known in all his igaorance aud vice only to those who have come in contact with the various tribes on the prairies and the plains. The su- thor of “Plonghed Under” has evi- dently had little experience With Tndian life, except what he bas gained from his reading. The flowery lan- gusge in which vhe set speeches of the varlous braves are recorded smacks strongly of Cooper or the dime novel. The fault of the work, lies in the biassed i which the views of tained. e book differ io this ree- pect from “the Fool's Errand,” whose greatest power arose from its feeming Impartiality. While this s 20, it cannot be denied thatas a litersry plece of work the volume before us’ possesses many ex- cellencies. The ground traversed by the author has not yet become hack- neyéd. There sre many charming pieces of description, some excellent dialogues, numerous selling satirical hits and the story is continuous and interesting throughout. We cannot, however, endorse it as a tair and im- partial presentation of the practical working of the Indian policy of the government. Many of its inferences are based upon isolated facts. A general tendency cannot be formulated from rare case of injastice on the part of the Interior department towards the Indisn tribes. N one in studying so intri- cate and diffcult a problem can close es towards the rapid advances in izstion which have beeu made by mass of the Ame- Iodians as the wards the rican of the government. And at the present. moment when nine-tenths of the tribes are quietly and contentedly pursuing the vocations of pesce 1t is rather an unfortm ime to de- nonnce as & failure and an outrage the policy which has made sucha state of affsirs possible. The book, however, is likely to have a wide circulation. It is written in & epirit of candor and behind it is an bonest purpose to expose what the suthor believes to be mighty wrongs, Many of the facts upon which the argument of the story is based havé bteen drawn from actual life. The style s smooth and many of the situstions exciting and pictured with excellent effect. The fact that the authorresides inOmaha as the min- ister over one of our largest churchee, will make the volume doubly interest- ing to many of our readers. THE STAR OF HOPE.

Fleets of “Lividias” en Paper. “Manserra, Ssunders Co., March 24, To the Editor of The Bee. Tam pleased with your fesrless and persistent championship of the rights of the people of all trades and profes- sions that are affected by the tyranny and extortion of the railroad monopo- lies, and with your efforts in stirring them up, the peopls, to look about for remedies for their protection that they may be sble to live and enjoy- the pro- fita of their toil as well s others. The transportation problem is the coming qaestion of the land—a ques- tion, in comparison with which, all other questions affecting the materisl interests of the country dwindle into comparative insignificance. The present attitude of these rail- road corporations to the lodustrial in- terests of the people and the body politic is truly alarming. In their overshadowing influence they threaten not only to absorb the honest earnings of the people, but to crush their lib- ertics as well. When the business in- terests of the whole country, in legis- lature as well s oat of I , are in the hands and under the control of a fow railroad magnates, it is cortainly high time the people were arousing fromtheirlethargyaad providingmeans for their relief. These creatare cor- porations, that owe their existence and privileges to the people, must bo put under legislative control; but as the creature has grown and develo into & boa-zonstrictor, and is now, by its coils around its_victim—the conn- try—crushing the life out of it, noth- ing but national legislation can meet the case and secure control of the creature that now defiea it. But the rellel from this quarter is evicently going to be slow, because of the power that is to be grappled with. National regalation cf railroad traffic is needed, and must be had. Bat this of itaelf will not sscure complete re- lief and adequate remuneration for toll. We must bring into competition with railroads, for che carrying teade, watar trapaporiation. Thia will, when t into al operation, *‘regu- Fit the fraight taclf of the ountey.” and will pat an effectusl embargo up- on those. hurtful combinations which annually rob the people of millions. Competition is death to extortion, and will secure to the prodacing, con- i classes equal share with the common_carri: of the benefits derived from the prus- perity of the country. The star of our hope, in ths lice of | competion by water navigation, arvee in Seotland, on “:. Clyde, vewr w, when steam t, m‘-‘" ‘was launched upon the fi., | vessel that was built for the Rus- sian naval service, but constracted ou au! jentirely different prizeiple from | angbhing heretofore known to ocesuic ‘architectore, drawing only seven fect and about as wide as three acription of It can be seen in Harper's Weekly of August 2lst. There is nothing, then, to prevent vessels of this construction or draft of water entering the Mississippi snd ss- conding the channel as far as St. Louis, receiving cargoes and tranemit ting them to forelgn markets. Here then is the star of hope to the great valley of the Misslssippi, that » kind Providence has caused to arise about the horizon on the transportation question to give cheer and hope to honeat toil. Then let an_effort bo made immediately to organize a joint stock company on the part of the business men of Omahs, Kanaas City, and St. Louis to raise the jrequlsite fands for the buildirg of merchant vessels on the plan of the Livadia and demonstrate to the world the practicability of carrying on foreign commerce directly from the interior of this great country. An all-wise Creatornever gave un.r coun- such a magnificent eystem of water ::’mmnn .o%“u is furnished by the Mississippi and its tributarier, reach- ing out into a region for extent, forti- lity snd variety of products unequaled on the face of the earth, to lie com- patively unused; but intended it to be the great medium of (nternational commerce and for the shipment of surplus products to foreign markets. From this great and _productive valley the world is to get its principal supplies of corn, cattle, cotton, wheat, rk and other products of the soil {Z then,a line of marine trausports can penetrate into the interior as far aa St. Louls and receive cargoes tor foreign markets it will ot only mark an entire revolution in the travsporta- tion operations of the land, but will furnish the balance wheel, which would regulate the price of the move- ment of goods and products of every description, snd infuse a stimulus in- to business of all kinds never before felt in thin rhgion, Factori ‘Dranches of industry will start up by magic, and cities will be built up here, that will equal if not excell those of the seaboard, introducing markets for our produce, such as are enjoyed there. ‘How ominous and full of prophecy the signs of the times in reference to the future prosperity of this country and its commercial rolations with the nations of the earth! Already through American enterprize and wide-awakeiem, cur grovisions, goods and wares are introduced and in de- mand in all the markets of Europe. And such has been the demand, not only 1n Europe, but in other parts of the world for these things that our exports now far exce.d our importe. From the indications abroad the de- 'mands for these thiogs are only in their _infancy. All those old and densely populated nattons of eastern Asia are being awakened up to a new life by the civilizing influence of the bible, that has penetrated into their innermost _parts, ratsiog and lifting them up into a higher civilization, increasing their wealth, and creating wants, which, in thelr previous condi- tion, was not felt. Demands will then go forth for products of artissn industry and other articles of con- sumption, not farnished st home, to satisfy their geowing _civilization. And to what nation would they more ‘Daturally look for their supplies than to us,who werothe principal agents in this new awakening ! Tn a recent interview, reported by telogram to The Inter-Ocean, between Gen. Grantand President Garfield, the General said, ‘“‘tnat in his visit to the east he had studied the affairs of Ohi- na and Japsn with interest and solic- itude.

Omaha and Kansas City are deeply interested in the success of this new deparrure, for, being the converg- ing points fox numerous railroads,they wouid become the canters for the ship- weat of grain and other products to St. Lous and for the distribution of articles received thercfrom on retura trips Large elevators would be erec:- «d fur the handling cf grain and stor- ing thereof during the winter months.
