This seems to portend high prices during the coming winter and several heavy wools to control the market. GaxperTa has won a ‘decisive victo- £y by the passage ‘of the bill for the election of deputies by a general tick- et in each department. This change toan clection by departments, which . wllleave the minority in each depart- ment practically unrepresented, is expected to place a strong _and well drilled majority in Gambetta's hands. This is, after all, the real significance of the change. There is now mo ome way in which a general popular vote in favor of any ome man can be " had in Frauce, the President being ~ elected by the Chamber of Deputies and the sitting i joint conven- tion. Thp election of deputies on a jgenetal ticket by departments will en- able great masses of voters to express ‘a “united " preference for one man, Gambetta, by putting his name at the head of their ticket or choosing his candidates. For six years, power has been steadily approaching him and hehas put it aside unti® it should come in such shape as would 1ift him above casual intrigue or political plots. The proposed change in the constita- ent Jaw, which he has loug advocated, will make him, not morely the most powerful mau in the Frenc': Republic, he is that already: but the only man secure in his power and his position. $r. Louss proposes to hold a Mis- sissippi river convention next fall, at which delegates from all the states “bordering on its banks will be invited. We earnestly hope that the meeting will be a success. The Mississippi and Missouri rivers are national property of incalculable benefit to the country atlarge. The barge lmes have de- monstrated that the suceessful naviga- tion of the rivers benefits regions re- mote from their banks. By the cheap- ening of transportation rates down the river, the rates by il from St Louis to Chicago have also been cheapenod and the deepening of the channels of these great natural waterways will add mik lions of dollars to the wealth of our people. Immense sums of money are ‘annually wasted by the government in dredging unnavigable creeks and deepening the channels of brooks which can never become of practical use in transporting freights. The problemof cheaptransportion is rapidly becoming the one great issue of the <dayto western producers and eastern. consumers.

No enemy of Roscoe Conkling could wish him a worse fate than that which has befallen him as the result of his foolish and uncalled for resignation of his seat in the national senate. The unanimous vindication which his pat- Tonage friends s confidently predict- ed has turned to utter rout. The prestige of his past career, the record of his party triumphs, the remem- brance of his genius as a political or- ganizer {have all been swallowed up in the haste of his former friends and political allies to place themselves on the winning side, The rats have deserted the sinking ship. When patronage unbounded was at his disposal no levees were 80 well attended as those of Senmator The praises of no party chief were sounded more loudly and the compliments and adulation of political henchmen were showered upon the virtual dispenser of three thousand offices and the rep- resentative at Washington of the wealthiest and most powerful state in the Union. To-day, Mr. Conkling, who was unanimously re-clected two years ago to his seat in the senate, finds himself compelled to beg for the endorsement of his friends and to cry quarter to his cnemies. Two weeks ago he proudly claimed an unanimous ‘endorsement, now he is content to regain by hook or crook the proud position which he has forfeited, and even to ally him- self with his former opponents in order to purchasea place in the senate. The result of the first two days bal- lotting at Albany must have convinced the ex-senator that his political pres- tige has departed. Humilating as the knowledge must be to him, Mr. Conk- ling can now understand how little of hus political strength was due to his own qualitics as a statesman and howmuch to his powers as a despenser of office. Theearnest and overwhelming support which the state of New York isgiving to the administration which Senator Conkling challenged o p sonal conflict, must be worawood and | gall to the ex-Semator, and to fill his cup of humiliation to the brim, his | most bitter enemy leads public opin- ion against him in the legislature to which hhe as appealed for support. Itisone of the possibilitics that Mr. Conkling may yet be chosen as own successor, but such a victory. would be indeed a barren one. Dem- ocratic support would be gained at the expense of party confidence and, Te- turned to the senate under such aus- pices, his influence in politics would be forever lost. AMERICAN HORSES IN ENG- LAND. The magnificent victory won by the American horse Iroquois at Epsom Downs is an event of international in- terest. Mr. Lorillard’s successful venture will bring him & host of con- gratulations from every American who has at heart the improv. and de- ted States. “Iroquois” is the first American horse that has ever gained a Derby. Several ventures of a like nature have been made heretofore by wealthy horse owners of the United States. In 1878 Mr. Sanford sent Mate, Preakness, Bay Final and Brown Prince across the water, and the Eng- lish journals hailed the event as being of little importance. When, however, Brown Prince and Preakness made a icaps and the latter was purchased by the Duke jof Hamiiton, our English cousins began to awaken to the possi- breeders. In 1878 Mr. Pierre Lorillard senta number of horses from his New Jer- sey stables to Newmarket races. Of these Parole was the most noted. He won easily a number of handicaps while Uncas and Mistake also gained good positions. None of the American stud, as it was called, when subse- quently reinforced by Mr. J. R. Keene's string, were considered as at all formidable competitors for the great international race the Derby, which founded a century ago on Epsom Downs, is the greatest sporting event of the year in England. This season, however. when Mr. Lorillards, Iroquics and M. Keene's, Don Fulano obtained second and third places in the Two Thousand Guineas race at New Market the sporting journals of London ad- mitted that should the American horses run at €he Derby the question of the relative merits of English and Ameriean thoroughbreds would be thoroughly tested. Twenty thousand people crowdad the race cource at Epsom Downs on Wednesday to witness the trial. Pacliament had adjourned, many of the shops in London we closed. Nineteen thousand spectators arrived by rail from one station. The Prince of Wales, the Duke and Duches of Counaught aud alarge party of frienls were present. Fifteen horses started and JTroquois, the first Ameri- can horse that hasever obtaineda place at Derby, after a magnificent contest passed first under the string. Tt is stated that his fortunate owners won $2,000;000 on the cvent. Aside from all pecuniary benefits which have accrued to Mr. Lorillard the United States will reap a substan- tial reward from this victory. dt settles the question whether our American stables can be worthy com- petitors of the best bred and best trained English thoroughbreds. Eng- land has, heretofore, led the world in blooded horse flesh, America now asserts her claim to be classsd with England.

Wayne County Review: On Mon- day last, THE OMAmA Datwy Bee took another important step forward, by putting on an entire new dress, a new and handsome head, and lengthening its columns 5o as to give nearly one- third more reading matter. We know that it is fashionable in certain circles to constantly jeer at Rosewater, and and speak sneeringly of the journal which he controls, but no one can deny that Tue Bes to-day is the leading ~Ews-paper of Nebraska, and that it wields a powerful in- fluence in the affairs of the state. While Tue BEE, in ovr opinion, makes many mistakes, and is a little given to_the pernicious habit of bolting nominations which it can not control, it is in mo sense a “trimmer,” and can always be found one side or the other of the great questions of the day, fighting manfully for that which it belicves to be right. The stand which it has taken on the side of the people in the war against corporate monopolies, is more_than enough to atone for its past political sins and heresies, and we trust that it may continue to lead the press of Ne- braska in the good fight, until the producer shall enjoy equal rights with the transporter, and the power of rail- road monopolies to control venal legis- latures shall be abolished forover. Seaator Fair. The Hour. It is a curious circumstance that all four of the Bonanza people are Irish- wen by birth—three Roman Catholics, while Fair is so much of 3 Protestant as to be_called an Orangeman. It is remarkable, by the way, how many of the mine owners and mine superinten- dents are Irishmen. In more than two-thirds of the mines on the Pacific Coast the superintendent or his first- assistant _hails from the land of O'Connell and Parnell, and they are generally faithful if not ultra-pious Roman ~ Catholics. - The wholesale houses on the Pacific coast afe in the hands of the Jews. ~Americans are the politicians, tho lawyers, tho rail- men and the speculators. Al- though the best-known millionaires are Americans, it is, nevertheless, true that moro than half of the wealth of the Pacific Coast is in_the hands of Trish Roman Catholics and Jews. The Trish spend thejr money freely and do not make good speculators, but they more than make ugn far it by their aptitude for ical mining, James G. Fair was born in'Clougher Tyrone County, Ireland, in Decem- ber, 1831, He came to this country in 1843, attended school at Geneva, Tllinois, where some of his family still live. He was an original '49er. In that year he was at work on Long Bar, Feather River, California. He did not find it profitable, so he turned Ius attention to quarts mining. His first essay was at Angeles, Calaveras County. Ho soon ranked high asa good judge of mines and as an opera- for. Tn1835he became superinten- dent of the Ophir mine, and in. 1857 the Hale and Norcross mine came un- der his direction. It was the latter which gave Fair his start in the world. Soon after he madea lucky guess. Ho surmised that certain ground might contaip 3 rm-t deal of rich ore. With the help of Flood he gecured the claim, since grown so fanugus throughout tho world as the Consola- ted Virginia and California mines. Senator Fair ownes seventy aoras of | ¢ land in San Francisco and is the owner of a residence in Menlo Park, which is said to have cost 1,000,000, Ho has a wife and four children. ~Liv s0 mugh underground in an unnatu atmosphore, he has been troubled with rheumatism and_throat diseases, and once took a trip toJapan for his health. Fair is notas rich as cither Mackay or Flood, for his possessions represent actual money taken from the mines rather than profits made on the Stock Exchange. Senator Fair is a democrat in politics, but he is on the pleasantest personal terms with his sociate, Senator Jones, who is a re- publican. Land and Labor in Russia. New Sork Times. Tt is not generally known that the emancipation popularly aseribed to Alexander 1T, was roally devised by his father, Nicholas, in arder to coun- terpoise the nobility by ocreating a strong middle class, the want of which is Russia's _greatest calamity. The great agrarian reform plannedby Gen. Melikoff just before his downfall, may becalled a supplement, or, rather, a ovision, of the work of 186l The 55,000,000 souls then inhabiting Russia proper (i. ¢.; exclusive of Fin- land, Poland, and the Caucasus) com- prised 1,000,000 nobles, 6i0,000 coclesiastics, 4,000,000 burgesscs, 23, 000,000 serfs, and 26,000,000 free peasants. Of the trading class| nearly all were grossly illiter- ate, and many quite as igno- rant and brutal as the peasants them- selves, a fact which quickened the zeal of Alenander II. for the elevation of the latter. Both the freedmen and the freo peasants were encouraged to buy or lease land, and most of them did so. It was a fatal step. On the rich Sonthern soil a few throve almost inspite of themsclves, but in the swampy West, the stony North, and the parched East matters went steadily from bad to worse. The money raised for land or rent burdened the small farmers with an_ever-increasing Iaad of debt, soon argumented by that of over-taxation. In 1366, when the lond question first became a national problem in Russia, the yield of the “Podushni Podat” (poll tax) was 30,600,000 rubles (822,950,000.) In 1867 it was 35,- 000 rubles; in 1868, 41,075, in 1869, 41,707,000; in 1870, 42,513, 000; in 1871, 42,966,000; in 1872, 43, 356,000, an increase of very nearly 50 per cent, in fact, in the taxes of an almost stationary population. Then came protests, agitations, and that ex- cited talk of reform which is the rec- ognized official substitute for reform itself. But, while this passed away, the growing distress remained. The fmei“:srh, “accustomed from infancy to be cared for by their "owners, were quite helpless when suddenly forced to rely on themselves alone. Their farms, worth barely 35 cents an acre, though frequently purchased at 81, seldom, if ever, sufficed to keep them. Successive bad harvests, epidemics, floods, exorbitant usury, paralyzed what little energy the poor creatures had. Many forsook their holdings and flocked to the towns in quest of work. -~ Others most unheard of stap for a Russian—emigrated out- scription of 1877 have depressed agri- culture to such an extent that the government, having tried in vain to stimulate foreign ~ immigration by tempting offers of free land and stock, lately been forced to prohibit grain exportation altogether. Gen. Melikoff's sweeping remedy of a comj sale of land, to take cf- fect before January, 1883, may re- lieve the peasants from the late riots at Kieff and Elizavetgrad. But who can warrant the permaneacy of the cure? Were every acreof the Russian ln:ilwr‘bo klufurnd wmmw, tlln pse of a few years would probably find matters e bad as cver.

Reform, to be effectual, must deal not with the farms, but with the farmers. Economy, foresight, self-helpfulness cannot well be expected of men accus- tomed to live from hand to mouth, and imbibing with their mother's milk the creed that what was_good enough for their fathers is good enough for them. One day in au ordinary Rus- sian village is an ample reply to all rose-colored thoories. Half-clad vaga- tumble-down shanties, sullow, unwholesome-looking men scratcliug the earth with wooden plows, acres of uncleared thicket or oozy morass, rough roads worn into gaping ruts, clumsy carts creoping to market at two miles an hour, begging priests filling their sacks with the gifts of starving peasants, men dying of fover or cholera from sheer lack of medical aid - such facts cannot be an- nihilated by an official formula or an imperial signature; and as Pitt said when taunted with his youth, “The cure must be left to tim SLOCUMB'S TODDY. Vast Reservairs of That Refresh- ing Beverage Stored Among thg Sand Hills, The Bee Man Browses on the Banks of Sacrmento Lake. Buffalo Counties—Kear- ney Items, Corrospondaence of The Bee. Kearsey, Neb., May 30.— It isnot very geuerally known that Nebraska has a few very beautiful lakes. Some years ago in company with a_govern- ment surveying party I visited a num- ber of small lakes forming a chain parallel to the North Platte river, thirty miles to the north of it. These are among the sand hills, and it is the opinion of many that underground connection is susfained between the lakes. They areilly fed by springs, and recive no streams, The head source of Blue Creek is through the sand from the foot of this chain. Occasional lakes are found among the hills in ather parts or northern Nebraska and small lakes and lagoons abound in the low_bottoms of the of any size on the high prairie of braska is a real curiosity.- Such, hos ever, is found on the divide between the Platte and Republican rivers in Phelps county, Sacramento lake, it is called, covers at the present timg about one thousand acres of land and is eight or nino foet deep. covers only about four hundred acres and is about five feet deep. Two small sail boats have been provided for pleasure excursions. Daring the extreme drouth of last season it became muarly dry, but a great quantity of snow fell in the Sac- ramento Valley last winter and exces- sive rging thus far dyring the seesc has swelled it to unheard of prapas tions. It is situated in the center of a large area of almost level table land, but little lower than tho surround. ing country. It has neither outlet nor inlet and contains but few if any fish, the testimony o near resi- dents differing on this point. THE TOWN OF SACRAMENTO about a mile from the lake, is little more than one year but it is a thriving littlo business place, and has I ather inland towns in ate. For this much he character, business of its merghants, dware store, and two houses of general merchandise aré all serving a splendid patronage, one loads of goods since the highwater trouble.

A contin- uation of the recent heavy rains may prevent com ground being worked and otherwiso injure all kinds of grain This section of country yiclded ten bushels of wheat per acre last year, while elsewhere many pieces were not worth cutting. The consequent faith in this as wheat land has nearly doub- led theacreago of wheat sown last year, THE CROP PROSPECT IN BUFFALO county was never better. There will bo noarly the usual acreage of corn, but al ot yot planted. Tho in crease in wheat acreage is about equal to the amount of - new ground broken last year. KEARNEY, THE METROPOLIS of the county, has a very good trade. This town was laid out in 1872 and as steadily grown since. It now claims 2,000 people and mew dwellings = appear each weck. A canal project is on foat, which if successful will insure to Kearney o bright futre. The Platte riveris to be tapped fourteen miles above by a canal leading to the bench land one mile north of the city. The water there conducted is.to bo used for mill and factory power. More good flouring mills will will find ample em- ployment, and the immense quantity of wool grown along the Loup, Repub- lican and Platte rivers will sustain extensive woolen mills. Paper mills are also contemplated. Men of ener- gvand means are interested in tho matter. Some Kearney firms are doing a small wholesale busifiéss, and the city is putting on airs. The street com- missioner is grading the streets and putting in stone crossings. _The stone is shipped from Lincoln by Boss Stout. When the canal is completed water- works are expected. 1 F. W.

The Doctor furnishes the best table of the valley, and his Sunday dinners are simply eu. perb. The reputation and smsing of the house as a traveling men’s resart is assured in his hands. Tt has rained continuously for the past three days. The Platte river is bank full and many small streams are wrestling with the bridges. The bridge over the Loup river directly north from hero, is reported to have gone out on Saturday last. The rain has extended as far west as Willow Tsland, and ds reported quite general both north and south of this place. Jav. A Flinty Female Dispatch to Cincinnati Enquirer. LooaNseort, Ind., May 29.—Six- teen miles west of this city, on the State-line division of the Pan-Handle railrond,’ is _situated the village of Idaville. Near this place is located a cemotery, and in this silent city of the dead a discovery has just been made which can indeed be characterized as_strange and sensa. tional. A few days ago a man named Samuel Wilion desired to remove the remains of lLis wife, who had died six yoars ago, and those of lis father, whose death took place thirteen years since. Accordingly, he procured help, and the work of excavating be gan. - The grave in which the fathe: Temains lay was first opened, when it was fmgdm nothing but the bare skeleton remained. Then the wife's grave which was less than two feet distant was excavated. Upon reach- larger streams in the state; but a lake | 8 It usually | ing the bottom the startling discovery was made that the body was petrified. The arms and limbs, however, had withstood the effect of whatever cle- ment in the earth had caused the pet- rification_to occur, and nothing re- mained of them but bones. The trunk of the body was as hard as flist, and upon Leing taken from the grave was found to weigh about 300 pounds, while the woman during her life weighed about 140 pounds. The case has caused a good deal of interest to be manifested in the matter, and, a’- though the wise men - the’ neighbor- hood have put their heuds together in counsel, they can study out no satis- factory reason why the woman's body should thus be turned tu stone and the other remains, located so near, should be in no way affected by the petrifying influence. Another strange feature of the case is the fact of the arms and limbs turning to dust while the ramainder of the body hardened into stone. The woman whose remains are thus attracting so much attention was once a resident of Harrison Township, this county, and it was there she and Mr. Wilson were married. She wasa daughter of John Small, a respected old farmer, and herself and husband took up their residence near Idaville about the year 1867. This case of petrification isthe only one ever known in this section of Indiana, and, asa natural consequence, a large number of people have taken the pains to see the strange sight.
