Arthur to the presdency of the United States is a possibility which is viewed with grave concern by the American people. There is a gencral feeling that he lacks the necessary qualifications for the duties and responsibilities of the posi- tion. His political experience has been decidedly limited, having been chiefly gained in the manipulation of loeal politics in New York. Asan office holder, Mr. Arthur's position as collector of the port of New York afforded him little opportunity for taking any extended view of publie policy, of shaping public sentiment, or of leaving his impress upon the national mind, Tt was in view of these facts that his nomina- tion at Chicago was considered more as a sap thrown to conciliate the fac- tion of the party with which he had been identified as any recognition of his peculiar fitness for the position. During his term as vice-president Mr. Arthur performed the routine duties of his position with ordinary ability, His refusal, however, to unite with the republicans in forcing the election of a president pro tem of As matters now stand in case of Presi- dent Garfield's death and his own removal by death or otherwise, jhere would no one be author- ized to act as president until of his recovery very incouraging. The chief consulting physician, Dr. Agnew, expresses the opinion that another day will determine whether the pres- ident has passed the critical period of danger. Tax plot at Albany deepens. Tue physicians’ bulletins are al- most as contradictory as election re- turns, CH1cAGO 18 becoming hotter than the grain over her discussion of the grain heating question in barges. NEBRASKA stood eleventh in 1880 in the list of wheat growing states, producing 13,846,742 bushels. Kansas is credited with 17,324,141, Peruars Mr, Conkling is right in not expressing symyathy over the at- tempted assassination of the presi- dent, He doesn't want to play the hypocrite. e 8ixce the government came in ope- ration there haye been 211 United States senators who have voluntarily resigned their seats. Of these 17 came from Massachusetts. | — Ir a strong constitution, an indom- itable will, the ablest medical attend- ance, and the best of nursing count for anything, there are strong hopes of the president’s recovery. SURGEON GENERAL BArNEs who is in attendance on President Garfield, in conjunction with Dr. Bliss and oth- er emirient physicians, was one of the group at President Lincoln’s bed side. He is sixty-four years old and on the ©ve of being retired from active ser- vice. Hohas been surgeon-general since 1804, when he succocoded Dr, Hammond, and his great work has been the preparation of the surgical history of the war, which has been chiefly in the hands of his subordi- nates. ——— WE have wanted to say something about the weather, and intended to approach the subject in cold blood, but the open pores through which we departed at the rate of five pounds per second admonish us that life is short, and may be shorter. We have lost heart before the theme as com- Pletely as Bob Acres lost courage be- fore the pistols. Had we attempted this subject six months ago we are confident that we would have been successful,but alas,we procrastinated, and the opportunity to be cool, the golden opportunity to wear our cloths and keep our flesh intact, is a dream, a vision of the past. O, for a dash of Christmas, — Ir anybody can command patience enough to listen to the jeremiads of the women sufiragists now in session in this city, they would be horrified over the terrible condition of the fe- male sex in Nebraska. It is simply an election could be ordered as pro- vided by law. Mr. Arthur's conduct in the Albany contest also laid him open to grave criticism as exhibiting a lack of the dignity connected with his position, The country must, however, face the probability of Mr. Arthur's ele- vation to the presidency. It may be said ‘in his favor that he professes himaself as lacking confidence in his own qualifiations for the office. This is a cheering sign, and may indicate that in case the drended emergency does arise which makes ‘the step nec- ossary, Mr, Arthur will riseabovethat apirit of factionalism which heretofore marked his political career and en- deavor to carry out the principles and policy of his lamented predecessor. Under such circumstances Mr, Arthur would be afforded an cpportunity for the display of whatever political abili- ties ho may possess. As president the country will certainly afford him as much consideration for honest en- deavor and honest mistakes as they have heretofore done to other and more distinguished statesmen, A GIANT COMBINATION. The endeavor of Jay Gould to divert trade to St. Louis does not have for its ultimate object the furthering of barge line transportation down the Mississippi to the gulf. We have no doubt that with St. Louis as a great grain shipping centre the river route will receive a far greater share of the public attention and also of the public patronage than it has hitherto had. All of Mr. Gould’s movements, how- ever, warrant the conclusion that he is massing his forces and laying his plans with the object of obtaining the bulk of the ecastward bound grain traflic of the west, which he proposes to transport over his Wabash system to the Atlantic seaboard, A little study of Mr. Gould’s recent operations will show the strong foun- dation for such a view. A few years ago Mr. Gould was a large owner of stock in the Towa pool lines. The Wabash road was a broken down cor- poration with its stock at the bottom of tho list, and its road bed and equipments equal to the worst. Withdrawing from & majority of his other enterprises Mr. Gould threw his energies into the reconstruction of the Wabash system. New extensions were thrown out in every direction, minor roads necessary to the development of his plans were purchased and consoli- dated, the road itself was almost remade, and a fine equipment took the place of its former wretched engines and cars, In a few months St. Louis, Toledo, Chicago and Omaha were connected by iron bands, and Wabash stock rose over one hun- dred per cent. in the lists, But the Wabash was without an outlet on the Atlantic seaboard. The energies of the railroad king were now devoted to obtaining a through eastern con- neetion. The New Jersey Central, a magnificently . built and equipped road running from New York to Scranton, Pennsylvania, forced to compete fiot only with his castern rivals but also with the river route to the gulf. TIn order to obtain the buik of far western grain ship- ments he will be compelled to lay down produce in New York at a rate only greater by four cents than that at which it can be loaded on ocean steamers at New Orleans. This will mean a general reduction in grain rates from the west, and a correspond- ing increase in the profits of western farmers, If this happy result is at- tained, Mr, Gouldin his own selfish struggle for power and wealth will for once have conferred a benefit on the people whom he has so remorselessly plundered. WHAT NEXT? In view of the fact that the senate of the United States failed to elect a president pro tem at its late session, the question is asked what would be the course of proceduro should Pres- ident Garfield and vice-Presicent Arthur both die or be disabled from serving. In such an emergency it would become the duty of Secretacy Blaine to summon the senate. This would force an immediate break of the menatorial dead-lock in New York. The senate being a tie a8 between republicans and democrats David Davis would be elected presi- dent pro tempore of the senate, and he would become acting president of the United States until a general elec- tion could be held under the following law: “‘SecrioN 147. Whenever the office of president and vice-president both become vacant, the secretary of state shall forthwith cause a notification thereof to be made to the executive of every state, and shall also cause the same to be published in at least one ot the newspapers printed in each te. “Sec. 148, The notification shall specify that electors of a president and vice president of the United States shall be appointed or chosen i the several states as follows: First—If there shall be the space of two months yet to ensue between the date of such notification and the first Wednesda in December then next ensuing, sucl notification shall specify that the elec- tors shall be appointed or chosen with- in thirty-four days preceding such first Wednesday in December.—Sec- ond—If there shall not be the s of two months between the date of such notification and the first Wed- nesday in December, and if the term for which the president and vice President last in office were elected will not expireon the third day of March next ensuing, the notification shall specify that the electors shall be appointed or chosen within thirty- four days preceding the first Wednes- day in December in the next year on- suing. Butif there shall not be the space of two months between the date of such notification and the first Wednesday in December then next ensuing, and if the term for which the president and vice-president last to offlce were elected shall expire on the third day of Masch next ensuing, the notification shall not.specify that electors are to be appointed or chosen,” MINNESOTA COLONIZATION. Persons who simply read the daily returns of the arrivalsat Castle Garden have no 1dea of the number and char- acter and importance of the new com- ers who are not known at all at the immigrant depot. So important and numerous are they, however, that some steps ought to be taken and persisted in, to advise them of the character and desirability of the lands in this state. Bishop Ireland has been doing a noble work for Minneso- ta, and his pamphlets and circulars have been of incalculable advantage. Let us state one case, Mr. John Sweetman, an Irish landlord and capitalist, came to this country last year; examined the lands of the western states, gen- erally—perhaps he failed to investi- gate the public domain in Nebraska— and the Canadas, and extended his observations to Winnepeg, a country that has been boasted of, but of which somo settlers complained so bitterly about within a year in the colmns of The New York Herald. Mr. Sweet- man, perhaps because he was a Cath- olic and knew Bishop Ireland, visited Minnesota, and was so impressed with the land in that state that he pur- chased one plot in Murray county of 20,000 agres, for which he paid prompt cash. He returned to Ireland and organized *‘The Irish- American Land Colonization Company, Limited,” with a capital of £150,000, giving the company his land at cost price, and taking stock in the company therefor, His directors in- awful to contemplate the tyrannical abuses to which women in general, and married women in particular, are subjected by their arrogant, over- ‘bearing oppressors of the male sex. It has actually come to it that & mar- ried woman can’t change herresidence or deed away her part of the homestead without the consent of her husband. Worse than all she can’t absent her- self from home for a couple of years without running the risk of being barred out of house and home by a divorce, and when she proposes to in- vest in asilk dress or a set of diamonds on her husbands account, the brute of a husband may refuse to foot the bill by giving notice to shopkeepers that he will not be responsibie for such. purchases. Who wouldn't sympathize with poor down-trodden Nebraska fe- males in their efforts to emancipate themselves from the brutal barbarians that rule this commonwealth, » was secured by Mr, Gould with the object of securing a connection with Toledo, the eastern terminus of the Wabash system. A line is at once to be built connect- g these two points, and Mr., Gould will then be in possession of a through route from the west to the lakes, and from the lakes to the Atlantic sea- board. As the Wabash connects with 8t. Louis, it became important to at- tract produce to that point. To that end Mr. Gould obtained control of his southwestern system, which cen- tres at that point. His latest acqui- sition, the St, Louis bridge, gives him full control over the readiest means of exit eastward from that city Al these movements are interesting to the producers of the west only so far as they seem to promise a cheapening of tolls on produce. It will readily be seen that Mr. Gould in his efforts to secure traftic for his system will. be clude R, H. Froude, of London, nephew to the famous historian, James Anthony Froude, who has never been accused of friendliness to the Irish at home or abroad. The com- pany was organized last March, and even now they have forty families on the property, with corn and flax—an important crop in Minnesota, although they have not learned how to utilize the stalk or fibre-and potatoes as promising as those of the old settlers. The new settlers brought some of their old world cus- toms with thewm, for there is one by the name of Cosgrove who has exca- vated his cellar and placed a pig there- in. The pig is so important factor in the *rint"” question in Ireland, and so has quarters on the first floor; in America the porker is not so impor- tant andso has to put up with the cellar. Mr. Sweetman's company furnishes the new comers eighty acres of land, a yoke of oxen and a cart, acow, and the necessary household furniture and supplies for immediate use, and those in addition to a house built for them and their passage paid from Boston and New York. Forall of thesethey do not advance apenny, and are not expected to pay anything for eighteen months, and then only six per cent. interest on the land and eight per cent interest on the supplies, and in a year from that time, that is twoand a half yearsfrom thestart,they arerequired to payinterestof b per cent on the principal, and in easy yearly stages within ten years they are ex- pectod to pay for the “‘houlding.” The land is given to the new comers at the railroad price and the supplies are at prime cost, and a cart that would cost the settler 8756 is furnished by the company at 50, because Mr. Sweet- man gave an order at once for sixty, and paid prompt cash, and so got them compara- tively cheap. The company does not pretend to do anything from motives of philanthropy; they say that in a few years they will be able to sell the alternate sections of land at greatly enhanced prices. Mr. Sweet- man is now at Avoca. He proposes building a house at Buffalo Lake, but 80 800n as he has his colonists in shape for the winter he will return to Tre- land, and of course another colony will be brought over in the spring. Independent of his company land he owns other property in the state, which he is going to improve. Recently he visited DeGraff for the purpose of securing blooded stock, in- tending as he does to raise cattle. In addition to Mr. Sweetman there .are wealthy Irish and English gentlemen of means settling in Avoco, and they sensibly roll up their sleeves, although some of them are English University men, and are seen after the plow or the harrow. Onc of the most impor- tant of the settlers in Avoco was storm stayed there for several months, and so pleased was he with his durance that in the spring he purchased four hundred acres of land, and has built him a house, But Minnesota has not all the cream of the immigration scheme. Pace ( Mr. John A. Creighton has just re- ceived a letter from a Belgian capital- ist, who has been examining lands in Nebraska and who has selected sixty thousand acres of the B. & M lands, and he notified Mr. Creighton, ina lotter from Montreal, that he had ad- vised his correspondents in Europe to remit at once to Mr. Creighton the money to pay it. Thus we share somowhat with Minnesota in the ad- vantage of the settlers. Bishop O'Connor’s Catholic colony in Greeley county is prosperous. There is population for several town- ships arnving daily in New York, and let Nebraska have her share, ‘WE “TAKE IT BACK.” From Yesterday's Omaha Republican. In a recent issue The Republican used the following words: “They are the words of a dema- gtwuo whe habitually appeals to the ludgeon and the torch whenever a contestin a mere local issue goes against him. It was he who, in the time of the riots in Omaha, appealed to the brute force of the mob, and put in peril the officers of a great cor- poration and the homes of its officials, among the best citizens of Omaha.” These words the editor of THE BEE considers as applied to himself, and asks us to take them back if there is “‘a spark of manhood left” in us. If we know ourself, and we think we do, there is a germ of that immortal flame left in us. We therefore un- qualifiedly ‘‘take it back.” We do not, however, do so under compulsion. We do so simply from a sonse of jus- tice to Mr. Edward Rosewater. Having disposed with Mr. Rose- water's request,—satisfactorily, we cannot doubt to the estima- ble editor of one of our esteemed even- ing contemporaries—we beg leave to quote Mr. Rosewater’s version of the affair to which reference was made,and adopt it as our own, To this, Mr. Rosewater will not, we are sure, as he cannot reasonably, object. Mr. Rose- water's version of the affair, which we substitute for The Republican's is this: More than one thousand workmen exasperated by the abuse and insults heaped upon them by the local mono- poly papers, were holding indignation meetings in the streets one night in July. The railway officials, apprehen- sive of an cntl.renz, had taken refuge in their home. The Herald was bar- ricaded and under guard of thesheriff. The proprictors of The Republican were frightened over the probable gut- ting of their concern. The whole body of these ‘*howling communists” as they were termed by the lnonu})oly press, marched to the residence of the editor of Tug Bre and called for a speech, A few incendis words would have sent that crowd down the hill on a double-quick and nothing could have withstood them. But the editor of Tae Bex implored these workingmen to go quietly to their homes, and counselled them to do nothing that could provoke a bregch of the peace or cause the destruction of pro) .

We accept thé apology now, but in the future we shall expect and exact manly treatment from every contem- porary. We haye for years submit- ted to outrageous slanders, concocted without & shadow of foundation, but hereafter we propose to hold each libeller to a rigid responsibility. Such vile attacks arc inexcusable and wo don’t propose to submit to them, If anybody takes excoption to the views we hold on any question we shall cheorfully accord them the right to differ with us, but such differences of opinion must not degenerate into personal blackguardism and downright libel. Public Opinions. Bismarck (Dak.) Tribune, The assassination of President Gar- field is the legitimate result of the campaign made against the presi- dency by the element of the repub- lican party which believed the gov- ernment ought to be administere the interest of the party bosses rather than in the interest of the people. It is the work of the spirit that plunged the country into rebellion, murdered Lincoln, and plunged the country into all sorts of excesses under Grant's ad- ministration. It inaugurated a war- fare on Hayes, conspired to defeat Blaine and Sherman, and suggestad the compromise which nominated Garfield and Arthur, It is whispered about the halls and corridors of Albany that Garfield will die and then Arthur will be president, and now makes the rophecy good by murdering him. Yfin that the murder is the result of a conspiracy, but when men in high po- sition give their passions lovse rein some lunatic is apt to get into his crazed brain the idea that through murder he can do the cause he es- pouses service. This assassin boldly claimed that he was a Conkling man, and killed Garfield in order to make Arthur president. But the bullet that killed Garfield killed bossism in American politics, or else its effects will be so far reaching as to destroy the republic. St. Paul Pioneor-Press. The half crazy miscreant who com- mitted this deed of horror, struck to kill, and rejoices at his infernal triumph. He proclaims himself a stalwart of the stalwarts; a Conkling man; and boasts that he murdered the president as a political necessity, to make Arthur president and reunite the republican party. Doubtless he is crazy, The fact is duly certified by his antecedents. But not the most consummate craft could have planned a political assassination so opportunely for the purpose of the stalwart chiefs who are benefited by it. The blow was struck in the nick of time to save them from utter overthrow. A single life lay between them and fhe full posses- sion of that power and patronage which they coveted as the chiefest of earthly goods, and for which they had struggled with the fierce desperation of hungry wolves; and that life has been snuffed out by murder. The only contingency among all the com- plications of politics which could re- store to their itching palms the sover- eignty wrested from them by the peo- le, the seemingly impossible, has Enppened. No sane man will attrib- ute to the leaders of the party op- posed to the administration any com- plicity, direct or indirect, in this deed of blood. Even the bitterest would repe! with loathing the aporoach of such a suspicion. et forever in the popular mind will the bleck shadow of this crime steal silently behind the party of Mr. Conk- lingand its leaders. If the gloomy plant of death struck deep its roots and drew its sustenance from the soil of insanity, yet it was the unlimited bitterness of partisan antagonism which sowed the fatal seed. It will serve, perhaps, to measure more ac- curately the venemous and unscrupn- lous hate of those whom the presi- dent has thwarted, to see its power to blast, when no longer held in check by a mind and will capa- ble of perceiving the hideousness of the crime and its non-adaption to the ends desired. The thieves whom the president has pushed to the wall, and the politicians who, elevated upon the reeking hands of others, hold up their own to cry, ‘Behold, how clean,” these are the men whose ha- tred would follow the president to the grave. Such thoughts, such beliefs, such feelings as theirs, impelling a mind whose delicate machinery is jarred, drove it headlong to the work of hell. Kansas City Mail. Our Zusually sober-minded contem- porary, the Journal, raked up and in- troduced into its editorial columns as “‘a fact worthy of comment,” an old dispatch of April 16th, stating that the president had received a threat- ening letter from a socialist named Kutz, who lives in Chicago, the same city Guiteau hails from. This prompt effort to connect the socialists with the crime, is the most utterly improbable and most lonesome suggestion we have yet heard. Gen. Grant, the leading stalwart, seizes upon the idea with amusing eagerness, and is quoted in Sunda; morning's des) €8 A3 8A; “1:; this is the outgrowth of Nihilism n oyr country, I am in favor of crushing it out immediately by the prompt executiou . of the would-be assassins and their followers,” We aro sorrow to see these scnsi- tive stalwarts so er to hold the socialists and the nihilists resposible for the assassination of Garfield. We no more charge Guiteau's crime upon the stalwarts than upon the Young Men's Christian association. But it mugt be confessed that his connections, 80 “far as traced, have been alto- gether with the Y. M. C. A., with oody and Sankey’s revivals, and “?], with the stalwarts, but not at all with the socialists or with the nihil- ists. A part of the res gestae of the assassination, was (iuiteau’s own de- claration: ‘“Tam a stalwart. I did it, and Arthur is president now.” If | T\ the stalwarts do not want to be ac- cused, they should not be so hasty in accusing other mfiu or factions with whom Guiteau no connection and has expressed no sympathy. Chicago Tribune: Do what he may, Ii'lultly or un- justly, Mr. Conkling will never escape in po) opinion & moral responsi- bility for the assassination of Presi- dent Garfield. In the first lace, people will take the ground thar had it not been for Consling's insulting defiance ;:“:he resident And&". im- ious clai superiority, this as- mufion would np:::r h{ve taken place, and so-called “‘stalwartism” would not have resulted in murder. While no man may say that Conkling desired the removal of the president, many will_infer it. The murder of Thomas a Becket will revive the story of how that assassination was sug- gested. Becket was archbishop of Canterbury, and at variance with Henry 1I. king of England. Knight, in_his history of England, says: ““There is no evidence that Henry Envu his sanction to assassination, ut it is clear that in his passion he exclaimed: “Ts there one to deliver me from this turbulent priest!” Whereupon four stalwart knights proceeded to Oanterbury and murdered Becket on the alter where he was officiating. It is possible that persons may imavine that in his baffled rage the *‘Primate” may have exclaimed: ‘‘Is there no man to relieve me from this man of Ohiof” Becket was canonized as a martyr, and the man on whom fell the odium of the murdervainly sought to protect himself by the most abject humiliations, Should popular feeling take the form of holding the faction at Albany rosponsible, even indirect- ly, for this murder, it will unques- tionably be unjust and unwarranted, but that will not change the public mind until long after the parties con- cerned shall have passed away. Baltimore American. ‘It was but yesterday that we pointed out, 1n the course of an edi- torial on the third-term idea, that the heresy of secession having been crushed out, ‘the danger which now threatens the welfare of the republic arises from the propagation of a doc- trine which violnmm spirit of our institutions as grossly as that upon which the confederacy rested, but in an exactly opposite direction. The imperialistic idea which now for near- ly a decade has been the controlling force of one wing of the republican party, has not yet atained the form of a distinct issue; but it is not essen- tially different in its object from that which culminated in the eftort to overthrow the union. Little did we imagine, however, that the culmina- tion of the imperialistic movement was to come so swiftly or take such a tragic form. Whether the assassin had accomplices or not; whether his design was known to those who were to profit by his crime, or not—the factetands out in start- ling prominence that the murderer was, by his own confession, inspired with the same- motives that have actuated the Third-term conspirators from the very beginning, and that he fired the fatal shot for the distinot gurpole of accomplishing their plots y the succession of Mr. Arthur to the presidency. He may be, as there is some reason to believe, a monomaniac; but his monomania is identical, ex- cept as to its practical result, with that of Conkling, and Cameron, and Logun, and Grant. The deliberation and care with which he planned the assassination; the wisdom with which he chose his time and oppor- tunity: the forethought which he displayed in providing for his es- cape, and the cleverness with which he devised a system of defense—sup- posing, of course, that he is not actu- ally insane--all go to show that he had perfect centrol of his faculties. If he was not the selected instrnment of others, it will, at least, be admit- ted that a man better fitted for the work of an assassin could not well have been procured. Whatever may have been the part that this niiserable wretch played, it is, unhappily, but too certain that the assassination of President Garfield is the logical out- come of the third term conspiracy. The stalwarts have, indeed, destroyed the president at last. What the ulti- mate consequence of this coup d’etat will be, it is impossible at the moment to predict. POLITICAL POINTS.
