Omaha has entered upon an ora of municipal progress warranted by her growth in population and the great increaso of her business in- torests. She is stretching out her energies to capture new fields for tho development of trade. New lincs of railronds are joining her with iron bands to cities and districts hitherto untouchod by merchants or reached with difliculty and against strong competition. New industries are sceking locations in her midst which will bring with them work for hundreds of hands and which will add thousandsof dollars annually to the locked in some investment her productive wealth of our city. To keep pace with the growth of the community a series of im- portant local improvements, have been authorized by people, one of which, our water works system, is almost comvleted, and another, a syftem of sowerage, is in process of construction. The first was demanded by tho property interests of our city, the seeond by the requirements of our rapidly growing The next groat local improvement must be the paving of our principal streots, It cannot be delayed longer in justice to Omaha's commercial position 8s a It is demanded our population, groat business centre. by overy consideration of private cconomy and public convenience.

THE MISSOURI RIVER CON- VENTION. Tho St. Joseph board of trado has issued the following call for a conven- tion to take into consideration the ro- quitements of the Missouri valley in the matter of river improvement and to bring before congress the claima of a vast section of agricultural country for attention at the hands of the na- tional logislature: Kansas Crry, November 3, 18¢ - To tho peo, le of the Missouri Valley: Pursuant to the unanimous wish of the dolegates from the Missonri valley to the lato convention held in St Louis for the ippi river and ite tributarios,” formally expressed at a moeting held at the Southern hotel St. Louis, October 27th, the under: signed, by authority of the executive committeo of tho Missouri river improvoment association, hereby announces that the Missouri river con- vention will be held at Bt. Joseph, Mo., on the 29th day of November, 1881, It in the object of this mesting to take such action as will sccure the interests of the Miseouri river in any congressional action that may be taken looking to the improvement of western rivers. It is suggested that the people of the several municipal corporations, such as counties, townshins, towns and cities, send representatives propor- tioned to population as follows: For 3,000 population or less, 2 delegates; made up of four verses from the ‘‘Mis- takes of Moves” and a hymn by Jere Black, — CreveraNp iy discussing the re moval of her wooden pavements, which are denounced as expensive to keep in repair, dangerous to travel and breedors of filth and disease. —— Coxoress meots within three weoks resonta- and constituents whose re tives stand pledged to the interests of cheap transportation will have an op- portunity to teat their moral couragoe.

These bond drammers will invade Nebraska about the first of December, armed with taffy and threats. The udvance agents of the “Oregon short line” of the Union Pacific have reached the Wood River country, 1da- ho. Tios are being cut along theriver, and grading will commence at Hailey next spring. The town company of Hailey has donated ample road-way and twenty acres for a depot site. The road will probably reach that town by the close of 1882. A lively railroad fight is brewing in Montana. The advance guards of the for over 3,000 and leas than 5,000, 4 delegates; for 5,000 and less than 8,000, 6 delegates; for 8,000 and less than 12,000, 8 delegates; for 12,000 and less than 20,000, 10 delegates; for 20,000 and less than 30,000, 12 delegates; for 30,000 and less than 50,000, 14 delegates; for 50,000 and less than 100,000, 16 dole- gates; for 100,000 or over 20 dele- gates. Tt is also suggested that com- mercial organizations maintaining a daily exchange send delegatea as follows: For 500 members or less, 20 delegates; for over 5000 membors, 30 delegates. Members of congress are respectfully invited to attend as representative of their districts, and governors of states and territories as representatives of their states and territories. It is hoped that tho magmtudo of the in- ts to bo served, and the advant- wes rought, will prompt the people to a cordial co-operation, and secure a convention of magnitude and intel- ligenco as will be felt at home and abroad. \'ury respectfully, L. Coares, President. W. H. MiLier, Secrclary. The St. Joseph merchants have ar- ranged an elaborate programme for the entertainment of tho delegates concluding with a grand banquet on tho evening of Wednesday the 30th. 1t is to be hoped that the success of tho Mississippi river convention re- cently held at St. Louis will stimulate every town in the Missouri valley that is interested in tho subjeet of cheap transportation to send their fuil quota of delegatos to St. Joseph. A large Union and Northern Paciflc compantes are already skirmishing for position in the valley of the Blackfoot. Survey- ors of both companies are working on opposite sides of the stream. As tho main lines of both are alrcady located and maps filed, possession of this wealthy valley can only be se- cured by brances, and in order to overcome charter provisions, local subsidiary compantes have been organized, both equally determined to bumid, At the pr. on roads heading in that direction, Montana will have, in a fow years, four trunk lines running east and two or more to the coast, without con- tributing a dollarin bo .ded subsidy. The Boomerang chronicles the ar- rival in Laramie of Manager Kimball, of the Union racific, on business con- nected with the proposed branch to North Park. It is reported that the company has decided to build the road out as far as Soda lukes this win- ter if possible. The construction of this road would be a bonanza for Lara- mie, Sauthern Wyoming and Northern Colorado. The Rapid City and Cheyenne River railroad is now agitafing the Black Hills, particularly the people of Rapid City. Ata meeting recently in the latter city the project was ad- vanced by several whereases and reso- lutions. Several New York capitalists ent rate of progress earnest and enthusiastic meeting wil do and much to force upon tho atten- tion of Congress the needs of the most important agricultural scction of the wost and the benefits which would be derived from a systematic and perma- nent improvement of her great water- way. As rtne opening of congress ap- proackes the heads of the departments preparo their estimates for the coming fiseal yeur and the public are lot into the secret of how much it costs to run the government. The entire revenue of the nation amounts to 360,000,000 annually, and the cxpenditures have averaged §260,000,000. This sum will bo larguly increased during the coming year. The interior department asks for $100,000,000 for pensions alone, $65,000,000 of which is on ae- count of the arrearages of the pension act. This enormous sum represents nearly one-third of the entire revenue of the government. The war depart- ment calls for $2,000,000 over its last year's appropriation, which, it is claimed, is due to the increased cost of army supplies of all kinds. The estimate of the secretary of the navy is §31,000,000 for rebuilding the pres- ont navy and adding forty-two ships to the available force. Altogether, the appropriations asked, if granted, will diminish she surplus revenue of the government a the end of the next fis- cal year by nearly fifty millions of dollurs, Tur dispatches announce a schemeo to blackmail Jay Gould. This is particularly refreshing. Mr., Gould has just concluded a successful scheme, blackmailing the stockholders of tho New York clevated railroads out of their control of those corpora- twns. — Fiery tHOUsAND voters in Phila- delphin stayed home on election day. This is one way of expressing disgust at boss rule, but not the best, A vote for opposing candidates is more effec- tive. Tue thanksgiving proclamation of Governor Long, of Massachusetts, is made up of four texts of Scripture and a hymo. The thanksgiving proclama- ticn of the governor of Nebraska is have been interested in the manage- ment, and have requested Judge Ma- guire to secure at once *‘the rights of way, privileges, and everything else that pertains to the same, and come back here (New York) with a complete and liberal franchise under the laws of the territory relative to railroads, and endorsed by your leading men and people at large. Thus,” continues the letter of the capitalist referred to, “having a solid basis to start from, wo think there will be no trouble in carrying the scheme to successful ter- mination.”” The proposed road will extend from Rapid City, Dakota, to Bozeman, Montana, through paratively undeveloped country rich in mineral and agricultural wealth, com- GENERAL ITEMS The Keokuk bridge will be repaired by December lst, The Towa Central road will soon be merged into the Wabash systemn, The International road has laid its track to within thirty milesof Luredo, Mexico, and wlll lay one and one-halt miles per day until it reaches the Rio Grande. Freight rates from Chicagzo to New York have advanced from fifteen cents on first-class, twelve cents on socoud, ten centson third and eight cents on furth class goods, The Missouri division of the North- ern Pacitic between Bismarck and Glendive roquires 880 bridges, in- cluding that over the Missouri. The latter will cost §2,000,000, and in its construction 1,200 men will be em- ployed. The Milwaukeo & St. Paul branch from Marion to Council Bluffs will unot be completed until spring on ac- count of wet weather. Of the 266 miles of the new line about 200 have been ironed, A good portion of the grading and bridging of the remain- ing sixty-six miles has been done. The activify in railroad building has caused & ‘‘'boom" in locomotives; prie- es have advanced and all sheps aro kept busy. An engine built for £5,000 two years ago will now sell for £8,000 or £0,000, and the demand for immediate use is so great that a com- pletod machine brings from $1,000 to 2,000 moro than one to be delivered in the future, The Chicago belt line railroad is a fixed fact, Itis proposed to build four steel tracks, encircling the city, crossing and connecting with all roads centeriug there.
