The " more he undertook to reason himsglf outof it, the worse the impression would take hold of him; and it was not until about six years ago, when he passed the age, 44, at which his father died, that the impression weak- ened. . Tur Nebraska greenback state cen- tral committee will convene at Lin- coln next Tuesday. The gathering is to be of more than ordinary interest, in view of the fact that (General Weaver, the greenbacker's presiden- tial candidate during the late national campaign, is to veach Lincoln on the same day, on his way to Wahoo, where he is billed for a great speech at 2 p. m. on the 19¢h, returning to Lincoln tor a speech on the same even- ing, General Weaver is a rattling stump speaker, and he will doubtless draw a crowd even in these sultry dog days. If it were within the power of any man to vitalize a dead issue, Gen- eral Weaver would be equal to the GUITEAU'S PUNISHMENT. In view of the probable recovery of Prosident Garfield, it becomes & ques- tion what punishment can or will be inflicted the law upon the would-be assassin, Guiteau. 1t is now conceded by the most ex- perienced oxperts that Guiteau cannot under be classed as a lunatic. He is as sane as any other murderer who has deliborately and maliciously planned an assassination. In time of war a deadly assault upon the presi dent could be punished under martial This was the course pursued with the of Wilkes Booth. But the criminal code of the United States, which governs all crimes committed in the District of Columbia, makes no distinction between a deadly assault upon a prosident or a private citizen. Guiteaufcannot be tried upon two indic.ments any more than a man whe steals two horses can be indicted twice. It would be just as reasonable to expect that Guiteau could be tried for every blow he had given the presi- dent if instead of attempting to kill him with a pistol he had used a club, The indictment will not be for wounding the president, but for an at- tempt to kill him, Tt has been held that a pistol shot is different from a blow with a club or the fist, inasmuch as such a blow seldom kills, whereas one shot is frequently fatal. But the intent of a man who attacks another with fists or a club may be just as murderous as if he was armed with a pistol. We have no law whereby Guiteau can be punished more soverely tor wounding the president than for ding a rag- picker, but there is no doubt thata law providing for severe punishment in cases of this kind is needed. A public man becomes more or less a target for disappointed and vicious characters of all sorts, especially if he does his duty well. We invite him to accept such a position and we should see that he is protected in the discharge ot his duties. No retroactive law can touch Gui- teau now, but his attempt on the life of President Garfield be a powerful argument in favor of law as treason, accomplices WOl will - doubtless an act of Congress making an attempt to kill a president or vico president of the United States a capital erime pun- ishable with death. THE COMING ELECTIONS IN GERMANY. The elections for the next German Reichstag will be held in September, and the German nation is looking for- ward to a contest which in bitterness and fierceness will surpass any which has heretofore been held in the em- pire. The results of the last Reichs- tag were unsatisfactory to all parties concorned. Bismarck is seriously chagrined over the defeat of his pet measures, and the small number and insignificance of the laws which were passed. The chancellor’s pet project of biennial sessions and quadrennial elections and all the lead- ing plans for taxation were defeated ; the military tax on those unable to serve in the army received but a sin- gle vote ; only one of all the bills di- rected against the merchants exchange received legislative sanction, and the bill against drunkenness, together with that touching trade regulations was disdainfully rojected. Above all, the leading measure of the ses- sion, on which Bismarck had set his heart as a sop to the s cialists, viz., the compulsory insurance of workingmen by the government, was so altered and changed that the chancellor re- fused to give it his assent. The shrewd tactics of Bismarck in his endcavor to dissolve party ties and to prevent new party formations are largely responsible for his ill-success in the last session of the Reichstag. But if the government accomplished little the conservatives and liberals seem to have accomplished even less. With the exception of the ultramon- tanes who gained a decided victory in the appointment of Herr von Gossler a8 the minister of public worship, all of the deputies return homo rather despondent and humiliated over their loss of authority in the eyes of the people, occasioned by Bismarck's con- stant assaults upon the dignity of the national parlisment. All these causes will combine to render the coming elections unusually excitimg. Bismarck, emarting under defeat, will throw all the weight of his position and influence into the scales in the coming election, and a strong effort will be made on the part of the liberal progressive element to counteract the schemes of the wiley chancellor. The German Reichstag, as at present constituted, consists of 897 members which are broad- ly divided into three great parties the ultramontane, conservative and liberal, and each of these parties are subdivided into wings. At pres- ent the ultramontanes may be said to be the most powerful party, owing to their recent victory in the appoint- ment of Herr von Gossler They are the natural allies of the conservatives and form the Centre of the ultramen- tane conservative party, which during the last session maintained a majority of 177 out of the 397 yotes. The ul- tra-conservatives are mostly rep- resentatives of the landed aristoe- racy and cheerfully side with the ultramontanes, as well as with any government which tries to blend secular and spiritual interests. The freo conservatives chiefly take their stand on a policy of protection as against free trade, and are enthusias- tic admirers of Bismarck's policy. The two conservative wings have together about 120, and the Centre 100 mem- bers. The liberal strength numbers votes, divided into three namely: 80 national-liberals, 140 groups, 10 pY'I' Under they poles, 9 gressists and 20 secessionists. circumstanstances ordinary can count on democrats, and & small independent liberal Thus it will be seentthat if the lib- orals unite and conquer twenty or social faction. twenty-five new seats in the coming elections they will have a clear ma- jority in the next Reichstag, Whether this will be done or not depends en- tirely upon the ability of the liberal party to heal the dissensions in 1ts ranks, Bismarck has lost enormously in popularity throughout the empire. The continued depression of trade con- tinues, notwithstanding the raising of taxes, which has not changed the con- dition of the masses, The socialists understand that Bismarck’s scheme of compulsory insurance was intended solely to take the wind out of the sals of the social democrats. The peasants and farmers are indignant over the taxes laid on the necessaries of life, the manufacturing and indus- trial classes are threatened with new taxes and amendments of the tariff while the whole country is aroused to the fact that behind the throne in“the person of the German chancellor is a power which does not scruple to re- sort to the most violent measures to gain it's ends. An anti-governmental movement is rising throughout the empire. Should the liberals, quelling all strife in their midst unite and carry the next elec- tions German sentiment will mani- fest itself in the next Reichstag and express itself in the measures under deliberation by that body. A dis- tinguished German writer, in a let- ter to the New York Evening Post, to which we are indebted for our facts, says : If united, the liberals will car- ry the next elections. ‘But, whether these prove a victory or a defeat for the chancellor, his efforts at personal government and imperialism in its worst form are®doomed. Awkward as tho German people still. may be in the managements of its political affairs, it is mature enough not to suffer a dictator, and to thwart his schemes and _cravings. We stand at a turning point of our political devel- opment; and just as in your presiden- tial election in 1856 the slave-holders’ last victory was the forerunner of their ultimate defeat in 1860, our next po- litical campaign will be the dawn of a better and clearer day: 17 is one of the favorite statements of monopoly organs that competition between railroads is ruinous alike to the corporations and their patrons, and that the maintenance of rates protects both the roads and shippers. Experience has proved the contrary. The latest instance in point is the caso of the Atchison, Topeka & Sant Fe road, which has entered into an agree- ment with the Southern Pacific, Cen- tral Pacific and Union Pa- cific roads regarding through freight traffic over the southern route to the Pacific coast. This agreement specifies that the Union Pacific shall not compete for business to New Mexico and Arizona points, while the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fo agrees not to take any business to Utah and Nevada points. Both routes can compete for California and Pacific coast business, but the rates by both lines will be stiffly maintained at their present exhorbitant hgures. By this arrangement it will be seen that phippers are deprived of all the bene- fits of competition, and that so far as any advantages are concerned, there is still practically but a single route to the Pacific coast. - The new agreement will be of littla benefit to anybody and will not change the course of the Pacific business materi- ally. The new route is the natural and direct route for New Mexico and Arizona, and business for points in those Territories naturally belongs to it just as the Utah and Nevada traflic naturally inheres to the Union Paafic, As far as the Pacitic coast trade is con- cerned, the Union Pacific will suffer but little the [uew competition with equal rates it will get of the bus- iness, except that for southern Cali- foruia, A* equal rates, shippers to California will prefer the Union Pa- cific, as it takes two or three days less time to ship freight over the Union Pacific than over the southern route. 1t is by such arrangements that the producers of the West are robbod of the benefits of legitimate competition in order to increase the earnings of gigantic corporations and dividends on watered stocks, from as, most Tuk gigantic land purchase of Mr. Herman Disston, of Philadelphia, noticed a few days ago in these col- umns, promises, if the plans of it's projectors are realized, to be a step towards the settling and development of the waste places of Florida, Ac- cording to the editor of the Floridian. published at Tallahassee, thisimmense punchase comprises about one-eighth of the entwre state of Florida, He THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: said that the land was excellent and offered strong inducements to immi- grants. All the tropical fruits would grow there, and the pineapple came to perfection without attention nanas and cassavas grew in profusion, and the soil was finely adapted to the growth of vegetables and melons, Tmmigrants, he said, were coming in largely from the southwest, and to some extent from the New England states, but the great trouble with them was that they came with and not caring to till the soil. Florida visions of orange groves, was getting her share of,immigration, but not as much as Texas. The inter- ior of the state was to be improved with railroad facilities which intersect the recent purchases by the Philadelphians, and give outlet to the Gulf the Atlantic, and also the North, and Sputh, When the which have also been purchased by the would Everglades, Philadelphia capitalists, were render- ed valuable by draining the Okeecho- bee Lake, and were cultivated for sugar, corn, rice and the tropical fruits, they would need the accomoda- tions offered by the railroad improve- ments which would gradually be ex- tended into all that country. Tue attempt of one of the strong- minded females of Omaha to contro- vert the position of Tue Bee that those who carry the cartridge box should handle the ballot box, is de- cidedly lame. We are pointed to the fact that ministers of the gospel, quakers, cripples and persons over forty-five years old of the male sex are exempt from military duty. This is true as to ministers, quakers and cripples, who form 2 very inconsider- able portion of the voters of the country, Men over forty-five years old are exempt from a draft, but all able-bodied men, even to the age of sixty, are expected to serve in the home militia, But even if men past forty- five were exempt from military ser- vice, their fitness for all other politi- cal duties cannot be calledin question. The great body of women, on the other hand, would never be in condi- tion for political duties as jurors or voters, simply because, as we have previously stated, they are subject to frequent functional derangements and are burdened with the cares of family. Strong-minded females may not be in that condition but it would hardly be worth while to revolutionize our political system for their special ben- efit. The fact that a demon of the male sex fired a revolver at President Garfield is no better argument for woman's suffrage than the fact that the plot to assassinate the Emperor of Russia was conceived and planned by a woman, THE time was when General Esta- brook was a mental as well as a physical athlete. His epistle “to my dear Rosewater,” shows him to have reached the stage of life which Shakespeare describes as the age of the slippery pantaloon, bordering on second childhood. The only pertin- ent point in his effusion is the request to furnish him exact data about his encounter with the female that was taught such a forcible lesson about the equality of the sexes. Wo havea very distinet recollection that some BiX or Beven years ago General Estabrook was reported as having pounded a woman somewhere near Jefferson square because she sassed him. We also remember very distinetly that our reporter stated that the assailant had complained of himself before the police court be- fore the woman had reached there, and thus escaped with a nominal finie. The exact date of the encounter and name of the assaulted party are not within immediate reach but we pre- sume if we had time to ransack our newspaper files we could refresh the Gsnerals memory. WHAT has become of those eminent sewer engineers that were to have planned a new system of sewerage for Omaha? There scems to be altogether too much deiay about the proposed sewer scheme. Omaha has voted the money for completing the South Omaha sewer, at least in part, and it strikes us that it is high time some effort was made toward the extension of that sewer. It does not matter what system of sewerage we finally adopt, the south Omaha sewer asa substitute for the present creek is a necessity, The rickety old bridges that span that creek must be rebuilt at an early day, and it would be economy to close the creek and replace these bridges by culverts that will form part of this canal. If anything is to be done in this direc- tion during the present year, it must be done very soon. —_—_— TaE national debt paid off in the last fiscal year, $101,673,483, is the largest on record since 1870, when $101,601,916 was paid.

The Washington tragedy of July 2d very naturally calls into promi- nence in the public mind the office of vioe-prelidon{of the United States, Ba- | WEDNESDAY, JULY 13, 1881. | fear or belief had much to do with the and among other comments that are suggested it is not unreasonable to find complants that the nomination for this office is often made thoughtlessly and hastily, and without taking into corsideration the fitness of the candi date for the discharge of the duties which, in the event of the death of the president, will fall upon him. Sev- eral circumstances are, however, to be considered in this connection. Peo- ple who have witnessed the proceed- ceeding of a national convention | cither republican or democratic—need | not be informed that the idea of the of the death of the nominee if elected is rarely entertained. Tt was whisper- | ed in 1876 that might not live out his term, and this | nomination of Mr. Hendricks for vice president, Gen, Gartield was thelast man in the world to be supposed lia ble to such a fate. The presidential | nomination generally exhausts the physical vitality of the convention, and leaves it an easy mattef for the friendsof any man who is at allknown to the people or the party to secure the vyice-presidency. The only in- stances in which we remember astrug- gle to have occurred for the second ofice on the ticket were the two in which General Grant was nominated for the presi- dency. At Chicago, in 1868 the bal- loting was between Colfax and Wade, with a result in favor of the former, and in 1872, at Philadelphia, it was between Colfax and Wilson, with a result in favor of the latter. Itis not unusual to give the vice presiden- cy to some man or section in order to ‘‘balance the ticket,” as at Chicago in 1864, when Mr. Pendleton was nomi- nated to conciliate the peace wing of the democracy, and at Baltimore the same year when Andrew Johnson was nominated as a compliment to the Union element of the south and the war democracy of the north. We doubt if the time will ever come when a national couvention will bestow up- ona vice presidential selection the time and attention which it ought to have if the nominee’is to succeed to the presidency. The times and cir- cumstances of such occasions do not favor the contemplation of such con- tingencies. To the end, while our nominating conventions are conduc- ted as at present, the vice president will be put through with a hurrah, and the selection will be made very largely with a view of placating some section or element defeated for the presidency. Weare constantly reminded, that no v president without “‘going back on his party.” This is not strictly true, but even if it were, the number of mstance in which the vice-president has become president is too small to warrant any general deduction on the subject. The most notable instance is that Audrew Johnson, and in speaking of him and his career peoplo seem to forget the notorious fact that he was nominated or elected as a re- publican although he was nominated i a republican convention and elect- ed by republican votes—but as a union democrat. When he became president, the war, in his judgment, was over, and a new question came up—one not under consideration the year before—as to the reconstruction of the southern state governments. He adopted one “‘policy” and congress adopted another, with~ results which are fresh in the memory of all. body believes that if Schuyler Col had become president between 1869 and 1873 he would have *‘gono over to the demoerac; or that Henry Wilson would have done so had he become president between 1873 and 1877. The cases of Tyler- whose name became a synonym for political treachery —and Fillmore, who offend- ed his stanchest friends by singing the fugitive slave law, need not be con- sidered here. Andrew Johnson is the man generally held up as the olitical apostate nowadays, and we have shown that Johnson never really professed the faith which he is accused of repudiating. The nomination of Mr. Arthur at Chicago was an effort/to conciliate the Grant men. It wad a result—if not the logical and necessary result - of Grant's defeat. If Arthur had not been selected some other represent- ative of the Grant element would have been. It is a mistake to attribute the selection entirely, or even in part, to Mr. Conkling. ~ Mr. Conkling, when consulted on the subject during a re- cess taken after the nomnation of Garfield, declined to express any opin- ion, or to exert any influence. He recognized Arthur as his friend, of course, and was glad afterwards to see the honor conferred upon him, but he did not exert himself in his behalf atall. Mr. Arthur was nominated very easily, and it afterwards appear- ed his choice was the wisest that could have been made. His personal popu- larity did much to carry the ticket though New York State; he took en- tire charge of the campaign there, and although others have since claimed the credit, we think it will be admit- ted by those who are familiar with the inside facts that without him too, the State of New York and the presidency might have been lost to the republican party. No man who knows Mr. Ar- thur believes him to be capable, in any position, of proving false to the republican party, He was sorely tempted once, when persecuted and abused'by the Hayes administration, and when informed in different ways that his rooni was preferable to his company in the republican organiza- tion, but he held fast to his faith and lived to see hiwself triumph over his eneimies, The vice-presidency, in our judg- ment, is not treated by the president or looked wpon by congress or the country with the importance which should attach to it. It is not regarded as any part of the administration; whereas, in fact, it should be a part second only to the presidency. The vice-president should be a cabinet officer; he is directly responsible to the people, while no cabinet officer is. He should preside at cabinet meetings when the president is absent; he should bo consulted on all questions of public policy, and in general he should be recognized as something more than a figure-head for presiding over the sen- ate. By elevating the office, it would be easy to find the best class of candi- dates for it. ~ At present the ' position is mot sought by men of ambition or Mr. Tilden if elected | . o-president, ever became | ¢ POLITICAL POINTS.

The Grasshopper in Nevada. Winnemucea Silver State, It appears that wet seasons, like those of last winter and spring, though generally considered beneficial to the agricultural interests of the state, are more favorable for the propagation of grasshoppers and crickets than dry, cold seasons. According to reports from every direction, grasshoppers and crickets are more numerous in Nevada than ever before,. Tom Wayte and others report the mountains twent; miles south of town black with crickets, that are liable at any time to make an incursion on the grain fields in that direction. H. C. Maker says that grasshoppers are making their appearance on Big Meadows, and have been quite numerous in in)lucr:s for the past few days. In aradise valley they have already de- stroyed one hundred acres of grain on C. A. Nicol's lower ranch, and are making their appearance on_his upper ranch. They have also cleaned out forty acres of barley on James Byrne's place, and have commenced on Mr, ernard Fisher's ranch. At Wash O'Neal's they are swarming by mil- lions, and he has five or six mowers ready to cut his ceop if it becomes unecessary to do so to save it from their ravages. John Byrne's crop is said to be totally destroyed, and one of My- rick Carrel's fields looks as if it had been burned. From other parts of the State reports come that the grasshop- ers are doing incalculable damage. In Washoo county they have devastated whole sections of grainand grass land, and in somo of the farming valleys of Elko,county they are nearly as bad. News trom Susanville, in Honey Lake valley, is to the effect that crickets have not only destroyed grain and vegetablo fields, but eaten up every vestige of vegetation in the northern part of iassen county. Farmers at- tribute the appearance of the pests in such formidable numbers to the wild, wet winter, which, it seems, was more favorable for the development of their eggs than ordinary dry winters, DYING BY INCHES, Very often we see a person suffer- ing from some form of kidney com- plaint and is gradually dymi by inches.
