THRER citizens of Lincoln have filed a complaint in the district court, ap- plying for an injunction against the issuing of bonds to the Lincoln & Fremont railway. Thoy allege that one hundred illegal votes were cast, that the city could not make the grant, that no sufficient notice of eléc- tion was given, and that bribery was used to carry the day. Mavor HArrisoN, of Chicago, has declared war on all persons who ob- struct tho streets, Builders are al- lowed by law the use.of one-tourth of the street, but must leave tho side- walk clear atalltines, But tho build- ers there display as much contempt for the wishes or convenience of the people as those of Omaha, where fully three-fourths of the streets opposite new buildings are blockaded, side- ‘walks uprooted, and the ground cov- ered with * brick, lumber and lime. There are a few notable exceptions to this, however, and a little more re- form without discrimination would be a great boon to the general public. Er— Tae damage done by the overflow- ing of the Mississippi river at this se1son of the yearisenormous, Hun- dreds of thousands of dollars worth of property have been swept away, gath- ered grops in the lowlands ruined, and thousands of laborers thrown out of employment by the floodiog of factories at Quincy, Keokuk, Burlington, Du buque, Davenport, Rock Island and other cities. Ingress 'and egress to these cities is practically stopped. The rising waters have reached and passed the highest point of the flood of 1880, and the levees, upon which millions of dollars have been spent to protect bottom lands, are rapidly melting, leaving a vast strotch of country at the meroy of the [torrents, unexpected and sudden rise in riyer, will ruin hundreds of farm- ers and poor people living in suburbs of cities and groat suffering will fol- ov dudg th'piner monin LOCAL IMPROVEMENT, Our vity may well be proud of the number of public improvements lately completed or in process of construc- tion. Within two years time we have done much to ensure the substantial growth of a great city. Our new waterworks afford excellent fire pro- tection and pure and healthy water for our people. The latest and most approved system of sewer- age s mow in process of construction and will shortly take away from our city one of its greatest reproaches while materially lowering its death rate. Tenth street is being curbed and guttered and the contracts have been let fcr the curbing and gut- toring of Dodgejstreet. If we countin the lists of public improvements, as we certainly have a right to do, the completion of the finest opera house in the west, tho erection of three hotels and the preparations for a sub- stantial and slegant court house, the march of improvement in our midst can be more readily marked. It is safe to assert that ne city on the Missouri river this ycar has shown more evi- dences of a lively and healthy growth than Omaha and in no other city has a judicious expenditure of public means brought more satisfactory resulls. But with all her present improve- ments Omaha is atill far behind what the requirements of her position and population demwnd. The street improvement problem cannot much longer be neglected and its solution is likely to prove trouble- some and expensive, The condition of its thoroughfares is one of the great drawbacks to a more rapid busi- ness growth in our city. Their un- usual width and the pecnliar composi- tion of the soil render them particu- larly difficult to deal with. But that anumber of our principal business streets must before many months be paved in a substantial and du- rable manner is daily becoming more evident. The experiment of macadamiziug of Farnham street has proved a failure and is not likely to be repeated. In fact it is merely a question of time when the broken stone and mud which answer for pavement must be removed and replaced by some more substantial material. Tenth, Harney, Douglas, Fifteenth and Six- teenth streets will also demand atten- tion at the hands of the city council. All aro arteries of our local traffic in which transportation is seriously impeded by the lack of paving. Amongotherpressingneedsin Omaha is that of stone crosswalks at least across her principal streets. The present crosswalks are a disgrace, and replacing them with wood is merely a temporary expedient which will prove a costly mistake in the end, The curbing and guttering of our heaviest grado streots, the grading ‘and repair- ing of others, especially in north and south Omaha, will also soon demand attention. As the city rapidly settles up in the additions and vacant lots and streets become filled with homes, the calls for street improvement will necessarily inorease and the taxable property will m- creaso at the same time to furnish the means for such improve- ment. If all property in our city whether of corporations or individuals was compelled to bear its share of taxation the city ftreasury would to- day contain funds sufficient for such expenditures as tho city would be called upon to make for the most needed of our public improvements. The sum which 1t would be necessary to assess upon the owners of abutting land would be more than made up by the enhanced value of the property. THE GARFIELD FUND. Mgz. Fizo reports that that the Garfield fund is completely invested in government 4 per cent bonds, whish will return an income of $12,- 000 a yoar to Mrs. Garfield. Of the $3060,345.16 subscribed * to the fund IHE OMAHA DAILY BEE: viewed upon the, subject of congres sional appropriations for the improve- ment of the rivers. Mr. Reagan, while heartily in favor ot such action by the government, thinks that the bickerings and local jealousy of con- gressmen endeavoring to make them- selves molid with their constituents by procuring appropriations for castern orecks and harbors, will operate against any extensive improvement of western rivers by the national qovernment except by resort to the most desperate logrolling. Mr, Reagan seems to forget that this game will work both ways. If eastern rep- resentatives who by their tactics have brought the appropriation bills into disrepute continuo their sectional op- position to the improvement of the great water ways of the continent they should be made to discover that western rates and western sentiment cannot be ignored or defied. The river improvement question is forcing itself rapidly to the front of all other issues in the west because it is 80 vitally connected with the great issue of cheap transportation. The west, which contributes more to the productive wealth of the nation than any other section, will not submit to see her natural highways neglected and the surplus in the national treas- ury squandered in useless improve- ments on useless streams simply to gain votes for equally useless congress- men. Tae editor of the Cincinnati Com- mercial, who, during the administra- tion of the late Mr. Garfield, was on very intimate terms with the presi- dent, gives the following account of the manner in which the trouble arose between Senator Conkling and the administration: The statement the Commerciol has given, of the way in which the New York appointments were made, that caused the controversy between Conk- ling & Co.and President Garfield’s administration, is the truth. It is that there wasa list of six of Conkling's particular friands on the slate for New York appointments; that among them were district attor- neys and U, 8. marshals, cbjected to by Attorney-General MacVeagh as un- fit to be made; that after protracted conferences Conkling was ready to consent to droping three names, but not upon the objection of the attorney- general, insisting that it they were re- jected the responsibility should rest with the preuim}’out, and not upon the head of the department of justice. The president sent in the whole liat, He was anxious to conciliate Conk- ling, who had not been pleased with tht cabinet, and the importance of satisfying the New York senator was very highly estimated. The Conkling appointments caused intense feeling in New York among thoss who had re- sisted the third term scheme. Then the president sent in the nomi- nation of Judge Robertson; and Conk- ling, after making, at the solicitation of friends, an appointment for consul- tation with the president, did not keep it, and the war was on. This is the true history of the matter, and we have not at any time said anything inconsistent with If The Gazette wishes to exercise its teeth on this bundle of facts we have no objection. The portrait of Dr. Holland, by Wyatt Eaton, which the Century com- pany offer on special terms to sub- scribers to The Century Magazine (Scribner's Monthly), is a life-size photograph from the original crayon drawing, showing nearly the full face and part of the shoulders, Considerad oniy as an exceptionally fine specimen of the art at photograph in America, this picture is of great interest. It has, moreover, an intrinsic art- value us un extract re{)mductiul\ of the work of one of the best portrait- painters'of America: and it will be wel- comed for its subject in many homes where the writings of Dr. Holland are “familiar as household words.” A leading New York critic says: ‘Per- foct restfulness, and a dignity that few painters attain, are the traits of portraits done by Mr. Wyatt Eaton, The Iatest™ crayon head of a poet mm the series of American men of mark on which he has been en- goaged is that of Dr. Holland. He has kept, in this case, a middle ground for Mrs, Garfield and her children, $167,609.38 were paid in before Gen- eral Garfield’s death, and $202,745.77 subsequent to that event. Subscrip- tions during the first period included seventeen of 85,000 each, one of 82,600, two of $2,000, forty-four of 81,000, twenty nine of 85600, one of $300, seven of 8260, four of $200, and thirty-two of $100. The remainder, $1,649.88, came in various amounts, The second division of the list is headed by a Boston committee with $17,701.40, There are fourteen $5,000 subscriptions, two of $2,600, three of $2,000, forty-five of 81,000, one by the Neow York police of 8717.27, fifty-one of 85600, one each of $400 and $420, five of $300, thirty-soven of 8250, fourteen of $200, and one hundred and four of $100 each. The remainder, amounting to 88,007 10, came in sums ranging from §189 to five cents, Edwin N. Benson, of Philadalphia, gave the largest sum on tho list, 810, 000, and a colored person of Asbury Park, N. J., the smallest, five cents. 1t will be seon that $244,000, or more than two-thirds of the whole fund, was subscribed in sums of 85,000 and $1,000, New York contributed vastly more than any other state, and the meotropolis is far ahead of any other city, — Mz, Reaaax, of Toxas, one of the strongest and most consistent advo- cates of governmental regulation of inter-state commerce, has been inter- between the flowing locks and King Lear-like appearance of his picture of Bryant and the rough-hewn, massive picture by which he commemorated the first of the martyr presidents, It is & matter that tells of the time, that a thoughtful l;!‘tilt like Entu&\ should picture a popular novelist and poet so polid and sturdy of look,” It should be said that it was at the suggestion of the artist that the por- trait 18 roproduced by photography rather than by engraving. Whil‘:s a life-si: photu%npll like this is more oxpensive in the printing, the result is In every way more artistic and sat- isfactory, RALWAY earnings for September, as roported, do not indicate any such heavy loses as were anticipated as the result of the railroad war. The great- est loss reported was 3 per cent over the corresponding month of last year, This seems to indicate that the trunk lines can afford to carry passengers and freight for much less than has been usually charged before this year. — The Periodicals, ““The North American Review" for November u\»ens with the discussion of what would have been a vital qu tion, doubtless, had President Gar- field longer hovered on the border of the grave while still the recognized head of the Nation., That question —*‘Presidential Inability" treated of by Lyman 'I‘rumbul{, Judge Thos. M. Cooley, Bvll%llill F. Butler, and Prof, Theodore M, Dwight, in arti- oles in which the student of constitu- tional law will long find only contin- uous interest, “‘Kngland’s Heredita- ry Republic,” by the Marquis of Blanford, treats ably, and ina nota- bly interesting nanner, a subject con- cerning which few Americans have heretofore enjoyed much correct in- formation. Tts aim is to show how ruly public opinion rules in England, 80, in fact, creating a real government of the people under names and forms which are monarchial and aristocratic, That remarkable article is one which cannot be too widely read, at this juncture, by all who would compre- hend the forces against which Mr. Parnell and his coadjutors have ar rayed themselves in assailing, as they have, the British Government at a sint in which the entire sentiment«f Ennlnnd rallies to its support. *‘The Appointing Power” is discussed forci- bly by Senator Geo. F. Hoar and Robt. G. Tugersoll presents a.reply to Judge Black in a second paper on the “Christian_ Religion.” ‘‘Harper's Magazine” concludes its sixty-third volume with its November issue. Tho oceasion is celebrated in the appearance of a really fine number of & periodical which is alwayswin- some to all classes of readers. From the first paper of that issue —‘In Cornwall with an umbrela,” very fully 1llustrated —until the last page is reached in the revelations of **The Editor's “Draw,” only a series of grandly good things greet the reader. We willjnot attempt to particularize; but ‘“Journalistic London,” & second paper, with ita supboerb _illustrations, and ‘‘Ohio's First Capital” may be mentioned as sure to interest all who turn to them. 8o, no less, the arti- cle on ‘‘Tehayntepec and the Eads Ship Railway,” illustrated. 8o, also, a dozen other contributions of story, })oum, sketches of toreign lands, ete. n a word, an issue of great attract- ivenees is here presented. “The Magazine of Art,” for Octo- ber, issued by Casscl, Potter, Galpin & Co., London, Paris and New York, at 35 cents per number, or $3.50 per annum; has three full page engrav- ings—‘“Ars Longs,” ‘‘Vita Breves,” which is a striking picture, ‘‘The Wisdom of Solomon” and ‘‘The Deal- er in Antiquities,” The minor en- gravings embrace illustrations of “‘Nu- remburg of Chippendale Furniture,” ‘‘Dutch Printers and Wood Cutters,” “Jersey,” ‘“Barge Life"” etc., while the accompanying texl conveys a large amount of useful information concern- ing Art, 1ts progress and its exem- plars, THE RAILROADS. —_— A Variety of Important Items of General and Loocal Interest. THE CENTRAL PACIFIC, The decisivn of the Central Pacific railroad company to build eastward to the Missour: river and secure an out- let independent of the Union Pacific, was followed by the immediate dis- patch of surveying parties to examine and report on the most practicable route along the <forty-third meridian. Three parties are already in the field, working toward each other from both ends, The corps operating westward under command of Capt, N. P. Ellis, which started from Yankton, Dak., on the 17th, have reach the Niobrara and have located a crossing in the vi- cinity of Niobrara City. r. Young, assistant chief of the party stated to the editor of The Pioneer, thatin all probability the bridge will be built at that point, as the .company would |, save meveral thousand dollars by crossing there and proceeding to Yankton on the Dakota side, at which lace they expect to connect with the glorfllweltom,thunecuring athorough route from the Pacific coastto Chi- cago. He also stated that the com- pany had already purchased all ~ the material for building 700 miles of road, the distance be- tween Ogden and the Missouri, and would commence work immediately after the route is agreed upon. They will take in a belt of land some fifty miles in width and locate the road as near the northern line of the belt as the lay of the land will permit, the Niobrara river being the northern boundary at this voint, The party intend being in the field for the coming five months, and have a supply of provisions with them to last that length of time. The outfit consists of five heavy mule teams; one light rig, one large tent for general use, one for a sleaping apartment, one for cooking and eat- ing room and two for the instru- ments, Mr. Young further stated that but little work would be done towards building the road until 1883, at which time the company would push its way as fast as possible, being de- termined to reach the Missouri river at the earliest possible moment. Forty thousand tons of steel rails have been contracted for in England to be shipped by March 1st, 1882, which will be used in the construction of this line, SHENANDOAH AND LINCOLN, The latest addition to prospective radroads in Nebraska is one bearing the above title, The articles of incor- poration, the Hamburg (Towa) Times, wero filled with the secretary of state of Towa on October 15th, rfi‘he plan of the company is to build a road from Shenandoah, Towa, to east Nebraska, A bridge over the Missouri at this point will follow in the near future, and an air line to the capital of Ne- braska. This road is supposed to ba in the interest of the wabnh com- pany, and if built will be of incal- culable benefit to Nebraska City, Lin- coln and the interior towns. SEVEN DAYS' WORK. The earnings of the Union Pacitic railway company for first seven days of October were:—1881, $829,113; do, 1880, 8584,953; increase, $244,- 160.

BRIEF NOTES, Thowas W, Robineon, of Towa, has been awarded §4,500 for injuries re- ceived in 1878 on the New York and Central railroad, A ship loaded with iron for the Northern Pacific railroad was recentl, wrecked and sunk off the coast of Cal- ifornia. The Northern Pacific railroad have added thirty-three locomotives, twen- ty-three passenger cars, and 1,200 freight cara to the equipment of their road during this year, The Aurora (11l.) shops of the C. B. & Q. road are building eight palace parlor ears which will be unsurpassed inelegance and convenience, They will have reclining chars and amone other novelties, a baggage and coat room in hotel style The cost is estimated at 819,000 each. They will run between Chicago and Kansas City and Des Moines and Omaha. Railroad builders now at work in Texas outnumber the United States army. The railroads of Kentucky are as- sessed at $31,000,00, an increase of more than 5,000,000 over last year. The St. Lonis & San Francisco com- pany has received permission from the chief of the Choctaw nation to sur- vey a line through the territory of that nation, which practically enables the company to locate its Texas ex- ter.sion across the Indian territory. Eighteen new locomotives were turned out at the Rhode Tsland loco- motive works at Providence last month for the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad, and three for other companies, The fare on the railroads running out of Boston has been reduced to five cents to any point within five miles, and the experiment is said to be satisfactory alike to the companies and to the suburban residents. The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy road has two consolidation locomo- tives in service on the division be- tween Aurora and Galesburg. It is getting ten more from the Baldwin works, and ten standard eight-wheel engines from the Manchester works, — STATE JOTTINGS.

The Irish leaders are the most prolific people in chin music on the face of the earth, # To the Editor of The Bee. The above is taken from one of Dr., Miller's editorial squibs, in the Oma- ha Herald. “‘ Chin music” is an ep- ithet of ridicule, that the doting doc- tor throws at the freedom of speech, (““The inalienable right of man,”) that the oppressed of Ireland dareexercise. Ridicule 1s at times a powerful wea- pon, but is not reason, and as such is often used by an unfair and bafled adversary. If Dr, Miller wishes even limited juatice done Ireland and de- sires to point out the way, consist- ancy would suggest that he offer a remedy for the mistakes he is so free to ridicule, The Irish are an impet- uous people and in their long struggle for their rightful heritage made many istakes, as demonstrated by fenian- ism. But the Irish believe and a just world believes too that the present Irnd leaguemovement is not only inthe right direction but is an open, peaceful and legal agitation of an oppressed veople to redress a %’fl wrong. As Wendell Phillip put If Gladstone could have answered Parnell he would have done 8o, but he could not, and he resorted to force.” Yes, the Irish are engaged in a peaceful, righteous cause.
