ScoviLLE's views on ‘‘the lottery of assassination” are interesting reading. Tae question for Omaha to deter- termine before discussing any other is how to raise money for paving pur- poses. Crner is becoming a favorite bev- erage in Omaha, since New Year's, especially among patrons of unlicensed #aloons. Leapviiie denies that it is playing out and points to the steady produc- tion of the precious metal in proof of it's assertion. Tue days of salary grabs are over. The attention of Messrs, Valentine and Majors is called to the fact that back pay schemes are no longer popu- lar with the American people. —eee T'ux: Herdic coaches haye been with- drawn from St. Joe on account of the wretched condition of her macadam pavements.

Tie called meeting of the State Farmers' Alliance, which occurs next Wednesday at Hastings, promises to be an unusually interesting occasion. Every indication points to a large at- tendance and a thorough discussion of topics in which Ncebraska producers are most vitally interested. T'ur Republican has suddenly dis- covered that the Holly system is only good for dress parade. As usual the Republican is two years behind the times. Tuk Ber made the same re- mark when Holly was first talked of in Omaha and was abused like a pick- pocket by the Rip Van Winkle of Omaha journalism in consequence. But then the people of Omaha are used to the inconsistencies of the Re- publican, ———— Tue Bex urges upon the citizens of Omaha to study each for himself the connected with the paving The paving of our streets, the methods by which funds must be raised to pay for such work, are ques- tions of as much interest to every tax payer of Omaha as they ave to the editors of its papers and the members of the board of trade, ,Our cltizens will be the oncs, after all, who will be called upon to approve at the polls the recommendations of the commit- toe, and the action of our logislative delegation, Let there be a full and free expression of opinion on the «question next Monday at the board of trade meetiug. A piue has been introduced in the house by Brown, of Indiana, provid- ing for the revival of fractional paper currency. He proposes that the treasury shall issue 0, 10, 20 and 50 cent notes to the extent of §10,000, 000, and to be legal tender to the amount of $5. The object of the pro posed reissue of shinplaster currency is to enable people to remit fractional amounts by mail. A better scheme was the postal order recommended by Postmaster General James. Under the bill proposed by Postmaster Gen- eral James any person can obtain at any postoffice an order for any sum from five ceats to $4.05. The postage on a letter with such an order will cost no more than the postage on a letter inclosing a five or a fifty cut aote, THE AGRICULTURAL BUR- EAU HUMBUG. Considerable pressure is boing brought to bear in Washington to make the commissioner of agriculture a cabinet officer and the departinent over which he presides one of the reg ular portfolios with all the digmities and privileges attached to other cab- inet positions. We are safe in saying that the farmers of the country | The small amount of practi agricultural change. cal benefit which our ses have me received up to the present from the con gressional sced bureau has been pur- | extravagant cost, | ing of a great| chased at an and caused the sp amount of white paper in the govern ment printing office. The conserva- torios of the bureau have furnished material for innumerable houquets and floral decorations at the White House, This is about all the good they have accomplished, while the seced farm has afforded con gressmen opportunity to remomber their constituents with seeds of Dutch cabbage which wouldn't sprout, and Ruta Baga turnips which refused to turn. So far as any practical benefit has been derived from the ponderous essays of Le Duc and his predecessors, it has principally been to the paper mill where they in nine cases out of ton have found their last resting place. The argument that the dignity of agriculture demands u cabinet port- folio is a piece of demagogy which will not find much support from real farm ers. No one denies the dignity of ag- riculture but those who best feel it and acknowledge it, talk about it the least. If there are any practical reas- ons why the head of the government seed farm should have a seat around the president's table and draw a cabi- net officers salary they must be ground- ed on some firmerbasis than mere bun- combe. Every branch of honest labor is dig- nified by the men who follow it. But because a machinest may dignify his profession, or a grocer his trade there is no sound reason why we should have a secretary of machinery or a senatorial secretary to preside over a department Every intorest »f the government can be satisfactorily protected by the departments already constituted if they are properly ad- ministered. The real reason for the proposed elevation of the agricultural bureau lies in the ambition of each commissioner to hold a better title and larger paying position, and not in any demands of our farmers for a more suitable recognition of the value and dignity of their life work. of carned goods, SURPLUS REVENUES AND THE TARIFF. The old time controversies over the tariff which reached their height in the days of Clay, Webster, Benton and Calhoun are likely to be more vigorously renewed during the pres- ent session of congress than at any time since the outbreak of the rebel- lion. The immense drain upon the tronsury during the period from 1861 to 1865 made all discussions relative to a low tariff out of the question and the enormous public debt with which the nation found itself saddled at the conclusion of the war has assisted in relegating tarif reduction to the back- ground of other more pressing and important topics, A number of elements must enter mto any debate upon tavifl' readjust- ment through the present congress. It is a question to what extent our revenues must be maintained and this in turn depends largely upon the rapidity with which our interest bear- ing debt is to be extinguished, our in ternal revenue ceipts diminished, and far-reaching schemes of internal All these matters interlink and have their par- ticular advocates and oppone oongress. improvements prosecuted. The south is strongly in favor of a repeal of a portion of the tax on spirits and_tobacco, while at the same time she is unanimous in her desire for an improvement of the Mississippi river and its tributaries, which will make large drains upon the treasury. The extreme protectionists also arguo that if any reduction of the revenues of the government is under consideration the internal revenue should be diminished without inter- foring with tho customs duty. This idea was formulated at the late Chi- cago tarifl convention, and meets the views of a large portion of the north ern manufacturers, Added to this a large pertion of the south wnd west favor some reduction in the imposts laid on inports, and it can readily be seen how complicated a question con- gress has to deal with and how im- possible it will be to secure any purely partisan vote on either side in a de tormination of the ssbject. Taking all the circumstances into consideration, Senator Morrill's bill for a tariff commission is likely to se cure favorable action from congress, princivally because its postpones final action for some time on a troublesome question, It is understood that the principal work of such a commission will be to consider the state of the government surplus revenucs, the probable future demands upom them for debt and interest payments and iuternal improvoments, and to formu. late @ plan by which, if no general | €165,000,000 per | a serious question whether this rapid neither endorse or desire any such | liquidation of our debt should be con- | be divorted to internal improvements. il OMAHA DAILY BEF: FRIDAY‘JENUARY tariff reduction is decided upon, some system of a better equalization of duties can be secured. Up to the close of the last flscal year the surplus | revenue of the government were in excess of £100,000 more than the cur At the present rate of aanum the entire rent expense. interest-bearing debt of the nation can be liquidated in ten years. Itis tinued, if the present tarifl and domestic taxes are contin- r whether, ued, some of the revenues shall not The nation now spends an- nually £12,000,000 on its rivers and harbors. A large portion of this sum s devoted to improving unimprovable about breaks and dredging out impossible With caseful and discrimin- ating appropriations for improving the harbors, channels of our great national high- ways and encouraging such plans for cheapenening internal transportation by water, there is little doubt that our country within twenty years could be advanced a century in its public works and our entire interest bearing debt at the same time extinguished. This can only be accomplished by maintaining the tariff, although in an equal- ized form and by continuing the taxes on tobazco and whisky. This is likely to be the re- sult of the deliberations of any com- mission which will be appointed with a view to the equalization of the tariff. No radical changes in the exsting scale of duties need be expected from the present temper of congress or of the country, which seems to becoming more and more committed to a tariff policy under which manufacturing in- dustries have 80 steadily grown. CLEAR TBE TRACK. The attempt of the Union Pacifie to monopolize the entire river front and ail the approaches that lead to the business centre of Omaha must be resisted at all hazards. Every rail- road that desires to enter Omaha as competitor for our patronage must have access to our river front, and should be accorded equal facilities with the Union Pacific for receiving, handling and shipping. Unless every railroad that centers in Omaha can enjoy the facilities which are abso- lutely necessary for conducting its business, Omaha must give up all her aspirations of future growth. To al- low one railroad to blockade every avenue to our business centre would be commercial suicide, Omaha has been recklessly liberal teward the Union Pacific. She has not only donated the greater portion of the vast and valuable tract which is coyered by the machine shops, depot grounds and side tracks of that com- pany, but she has allowed the Union Pacific to close and occupy many streets and alleys. Among the streets closed and occupied by the Union Pa- cific is Ninth street, one of our prin- cipal thoroughfares, and other strects of lesser importance. While there is no authority in law for closing any of our streets, much less for their occu- pancy, our peoplu have patiently sub- mitted to these impositions on the part of the Union Pacific. The time has come, however, when further submission becomes criminal. During the past two years the Union Pacific anaconda has wound its iron coils around Omaha stealthily, and ks have béen laid down in our streets and alleys, ostensibly to accommodate wholesale dealers, lumber yards and factories, but in reality for the pur- pose of complotely inclosing the busi- ness centre in a netwerk Y more than thirty miles of side. tra of Union oxcluding ilvoad from approach- art of the ity another road that has never asked a cent or received a foot of ground from Omaha undertakes to purchase depot grounds, and asks the priviloge of laying a side-track through a streot adjacent to these grounds, the Union Pacific attempts to play the dog in the manger, and asks the city council of Omaha to aid them in obstructing the approaches to the competing voad. Will the council lend itself to such a disreputable scheme, and will Mayor Boyd approve an ordinance to give the Union Pa cific the unheard of privilege to cut a competing road out of the approaches to its depot grounds ! fic tracks and overy other ing that And when It strikes us the tnne has arvived for this at- tompt to blockade our commerce, Lot aha to call a halt on the command be issued by our city authorities to the Union Pacitic to clear the track and letall the railroads that desire to compote for our traffic have ai equal chance in the use of our streots and alleys. Lot those roads if noed be share the expense of such side tr cks and make them ac. cossible to all the roads alike, This is the case in Kansas City, where fifteen railroads enter over one bridge, and all have access to the warchouses, factorios, packing houses and stock yards on the river front If each of these fifteen roads had to be accommodated with separate side tracks through the lower portion of Kansas City there would not be room enough for half of thewm, If Omaha is to accommodate all the roads that will converge in this city withiu the next ten or twenty years she must 20 1882, clear the track now and |ble to their influence it is brought to adopt a just and equitable rule that | bear with ita full force, and a judge will govern all the roads alike--so far as our river front and our streets and alleys are concerned. —— relations Waateven “strained General Kilpatrick may have caused | between this government and l‘lulxl This his funeral services attested in the strongest possible manner the resp may do much to serve them without transcending the limits of the discre- tion necessarily left to him by the But what are these corporations’ are accustomed to attribute to them purposes and motives and to speak of them as unserupulous, althouch they are proverbially without souls is because they are s | 80 largely under the control of a few men, who have acquired enor- in which he was held at Santiago, and | Mous wealth by directing their affairs. the cordial fee him by the Chilian government as the representative of the United States. ordered by imposing ever The funeral ceremonies Chili were the witnessed in Santiago, and were con ducted by th most the consul general of the States Mail advices to the Chiliar minister in Washington that the funeral services held in the cathedral, the church requiem edifice in service ings entertained for United | merely as state were largest | control the tide Santiago, the [ and profit by th being performed by the Bishop of Guadaville.
