Ir a recount was ordered by the census bureau of the inhabitants of Dakota, they would show a marked decrease in population. A majority of the inhabitants are now. in Wash- ington lobbying for the bill to admit Dakota into the Union. Tue locking up of thousands of bushels of grain and corn by specula tors has diminished exports to such a degree that the shipment of gold to Europe from this country has begun. Over 81,000,000 were taken out from New York this week to balance trade. Tue persistent efforts of Senator Saunders to straighten the northern boundary of Nebraska has at last been successful. Now that the northern boundary line bill has passed the sen. ate there is a very fair prospect that it will become a law before the end of the present session.

Omaha does not share in the cru- sade against the Mormons which is running riot over the land. Omaha i8 no doubt influenced by numerous bills of lading from her wholesale houses to the land of saints.—Lincoln Journal, Omaha is actuated by no such mer- cenary motives. Omaha never has taken stock in crusades which run riot over the land against any real or imaginary evil. Omaha does not be- lieve that such emotional demonstra- tlons accomplish any good. — ANTI-POLYGAMY LEGISLA- TION. Senator Edmunds' anti-polygamy bill is a well digested measure, but we feoar it is destined to prove a political failure. The problem in Utah has not been to devise a law stringent enough to strangle polygamy but to devise means for oxecuting existing lsws. The difticulty has been to prove the fact of marriage in Utah. Mor- mon marriages are secret, and are per- formed by Mormous, Bigamous and polygamous marriages could not, on this account, be established by logal testimony. To obviate this trouble a heavy penalty is provided against the simple act of cohabitation with more than one woman, without reference to marriage, To try this it is provided that no one who has lived in bigamy, polygamy or adultery, or believes that any such practices are to be tolerate: shall be competent to sit as a jury man, Right there the bill breaks down, How can a jury panel be filled in Utah when both Mormons and Gen- tiles arc made incompetent to sit on juries, * It is self ovident that every Mormon that adheres to the Yelief that pblygamy is sanctioned and com- manded by the Deity would be dis abled from jury duty and so would every non-Mormon who religiously believes polygamy to be a crime, be- cause such men could not render an impartial verdict, The trouble in Utah as far as we are able to observe has not been a want of law but the 2| by for the reason that conviction under them cannot be procured. The parties guilty of polygamy cannot be induced to turn state's their wives evidence and refuse testify the magistrates license sueh marriages cannot forced to give testimony that would against that be to them, and criminate them, and renders them lisble to prosecution as accessories All these difficultios cannot be reached Edmunds' bill or any oiher device. The only thing that will blot out polygamy is moral meas ures backed by public sentiment, and Senator that can only be worked up when a large majority of the people of Utah shall be composed of non-Mormons, or Mormons that reject polygamous The problem which Senator Edmunds and marriage as a divine ordinance. others are trying to solve is in our opinion nearer solution than they im agine. The rapid extension of the railway system through Utah will soon bring an influx of non Mormon sottlers into the territory, aud at no distant day the Mormons themselves will be forced to abandon polygamy as a relic of barbarism which cannot thrive side by side with monogamy, just as slavery and freedom could not thrive side by side. FREE TRADE AND PROTEC- TION. Political economy is usyally consid- ered too dry a subject for the general reader. Tho facts and figures with which advocates of free trade or pro- tection usually fortify their argu- meonts convey littlo practical knowl- edge to the ordinary reading public who have been content to catch such driblets as fall from newspaper dis cussion or were heard in one sided political harrangues from the stump. It is on this account that we cordially welcome the little volume before us entitled ‘“No More Free Rides on this Jackass; or Protection Forever and Everywhere,” by Frank Rosewater, of Cleveland, Ohio, which for the first time presents in popular form a keen analysis of a question of the highest importance to every American. Mr. Rosewater’s book possesses all the charm of a novei. It is a strong, clear and incisive argu- ment against trade, carried through a medley of storios, which are illumined by a fund of overflowing humor. The author never for a mo- ment loses his grasp of the object before him. His argument is fortified by facts drawn from all sourcos which throw any light upon the question. Mr. Rosewater shows free very clearly that a properly adjusted protective policy is something more than a mere local policy. He up- holds it as the regulator cbntrolling the distribution of population, com- I'ik UMAHA DAILY BET: SATURDAY FEBRU net.

On the other hand, the disturbed state of Trish af fairs has rendered it impossible for many who would come to obtain the necessary means to do so Colonization schemes in this The most pressing matter which the new French Cabinet has on its hands 18 the commercial treaty with Eng- land. By mutual concession in re- spect to the woolen duties and other points of difference, the rapresenta- tives of the two nations had brought the prolonged and frequently inter- rupted negotiations to the verge of agreement, and the treaty was report- od to be ready for the exchange of signatures at the moment when the free trade Ministry of M. Gambetta went out ot office, and was succeeded by a with semi-protectionist Cabinet, M. Tirard, the author of the new tariff of which England com- plains 8o bitterly, as ministor of com- merce. Tt is not casy to beliove that M. de Freycinet willl abruptly change the commercial policy of his predeces. sor, who, in that respect at least, truly represented France; but the ap- pointment of M. Tirard will cause much anxiety in England The Eng- lish government may, in fact, justly complain that satisfactory commercial and diplomatic relations are impossi- ble with a country of such capricious temper. M. Gambetta, moreover, would find in a policy of strict adhe- sion to the tariff a fine opportunity to make himsely very troublesome to the ministry. peiling that diversity of employment which is essential to the greatest bene- fit to the groatest number. Notwith- standing the earnest belief of the author in the necessity of protection the arguments of the free traders are presented in a fair and impartial man- ner to the reader, and the book abounds in liberal quotations from the ablest writers on both sides of the question. The chief merit of this work is the easy and graceful narrative style in which he presents his clearly defined views. There is pith and point in evory story. The interest of the reader never flags from beginning to end. The method of attack is so new and original that it compels at- tention while the humorous cartoons which adorn the pages of the volame assist materially in illustrating the ideas of the author. The book is evi- dently designed to have a large sale asits merits deserve. At once in- structive and entertaining it can be read with interest and profit by every reader of a daily paper and Tue Bee commends it to the public as one of the most valuable contributions of the press to the study of a groat subject.

The new Fronch eabinet formed by M. de Freycinet is beyond question one of the ablest in the history of the ropublic. Tt containg two ox-premiors, Forry Zand himsolf four other who held previous cabinets, It is acknowledged that M. de Froycinet is & man whose abilities are average of French first class, Froycinet and ofticers have posts in above the statesien of the His administrative powers have been trained and ripened in po- sitions of public and private responsi bility; he is moderate in his policy, but firm in his methods, and enjoys | the respect of his own couutrymen | and of the representutives of foreign nations with whom he has had rela- tions. As minister of foreign affairs his adn ration was characterized by wisdom and dignity—qualitics which were conspicuously wanting in the administration of his successor in post, M. Bartholemy St. Hilaire, The circumstances under which he resign ed his office as premier in September, 1880, after he had honorably filled it for nine months, were creditable to him as a consistent and self-respoct ing statesman. M. Gambetts was inability to enforce existing statutes trying then, as perhaps he will try Baron Von Schlozer, Bismarck’s emissary to the Vatican has set out on his momentous journey to Rome. It is ten years or more since the Vati- can has held direct communications with an accredited envoy of Prussia. The present renewal of relations de- rives its interest and importance rather from the treaties already agreed upon in principle, than from any con- tingent exactions or concessions from either of the two potentates, William or Leo XTIT. The mission is the pub- lic acknowledgment by Bismarck that his policy has been a failure, and that Rome is still a power. What to do with the arrested mem- bers of parliament now in prison is a very serious problem which has been puzzling the British ministry. Tt is stated that Mr. Parnell will give no pledges, and if he were lot out on the eve of the parliamentary meeting, it is feared that he would have a series of ovations, and would preach the ‘‘No Rent" gospel afresh, before set- ting out for London. On the other hand, it has a very ugly look to keep members of parliament in Kilmain- ham jail while that body is in session, and still more so as they have not been and are not to be tried. Buch & thing has not hap- pened in the British Tslands since the mrddle ages, The vory attempt to the ‘‘Five Members” for a political offense in 1641 was the out- break of the civil war; and, while the same arbitrary king kept Sir John Eliot in prison till his death, it is also true that no parliament met botween his arrest and his death, Mr, Glad stone is about to force an athoist upon arrest the house of commons, on the ground that Nottingham must not forfeit her representation. But he is quito will ing to see Cork deprived of it by his own act. Once more there is one measure for English affairs and quite another for Irish, Austria now has a full fledged ro volt on her hands in the iusurrection in the Balkan provinces. The im pression in military circles is that the entire Austrian army will be mobil- ized in the spring. The direct cause of revolt was the Austrian law enacted last yoar by which compulsory military service was introduced into the proy- inces of Bosnia and Heorzegovina, This was a most convineing proof that, whatever subterfuges had been om. ployed at the Berlin congress, and whatever formalitics had changed betwoon Austria and the porte the convention of April, 1879, the territory had passed under been ox in now, to dictate the policy of the caie the absolute sway of the northern power. Not only had the financial administration been established on Viennese principles, but the im perial conditions of military service had been imposed. Pains were taken to make these new obligation as elas- tic as possible. The wealthy Chris- tians of Bosnia were known to dislike barrack life and military tactics, and the privilege of furnishing substitutes on easy terms was accorded to them, The Mohammedans, on the other hand, soldiers by birth and trade, but were unwilling to render military service unless they could be allowed to choose their own arws, were drill and fight in their own way. and practice their own religious rights, The Austrians, who hvve acquired by long experience a reputation for fair | dealing with nations of mixed blood and diverse creeds, appear to have ad stered this law with caution and discretion, and to have succeeded in overcoming race prejudice in Busnia, In Herzegovina the garrisons have not been able to preserve order, and revolt in sproading like fire in tinder-box. mi A A vast religious gathering has re- cently been held in Allahabad, at the junction of the Jumna with the Ganges. Tt is known as the Magh Mela, and this being the twelfth year of its holding, the attendance has been unusually large. Visitors are estimated to have numbered between 1,000,000 and 2,000,000. Fears have been entertained that a pestilence might break out among this great multitude with frightful results. Returns of the recent census in France give the following popula- tions for the cities named: Lyons, 332,894; Bordeaux, 221,690; Nantes, 121,965; Rouen, 104,780; Havre, 103,063; Douai, 72,900; Alger, 64,- 714; Grenoble, 50,967. The nihilists in Russia are more ac- tive than ever and the strongest pre- cautions have been adopted to increase the safety of the Annitdhkoff palace, the favorite residence of the czar in St. Potersburg. All around the palace a subterranean passage has been con- structed which can be patrolled by sentinels, and be placed under water at will from a neighboring stream. Negotiations to purchase three houses opposite the palace are now going on between the minister of the imperial household and tne owners. Among the houses is the one in which Sholia- bow, who was afterwards hanged, per- fected his plans, and in which Tri- gonij was arrested lately. The second house was selected by Kobosew as a convenient place to start his mine. From the third, the hotel Bellevue, rented recently by the ministry of the imperial household, one can overlook, when the trees are leafloss, the impe- rial gardens. The price demanded by | f the proprietors of these three douses is only 6,000,000 roubles, but this, it is thought, will not deter the author- ities from buying the property and conyerting it into huge barracks. The rumor that the buildings are to be offered by the czar as lodgings to offi- cers of his household 18 discredited, probably in view of the many defec- tions which have lately been discover- ed among his immediate attendants, and the question naturally suggests itself that the succoss of all these pre- cautionary schemes depends, after all, upon the trustwcrthiness and loyalty of the czar's large retinue of attend- ants, officers and soldiers, The practice of head hunting still exists in Borneo, though dying out in the districts in which the Dutch have any control. No youth is allowed to don the tokens of manhood or pay his addresses to any Malay maid till he has been able to bring in two or three of his encmies’ heads. Births, mar- riages and deaths, and many other events in the lives ot theso half-savage people, cannot be properly celebrated without the presence of a few fresh heads; and in almost every house one or more of these trophies are stowed away wrapped up in banana leaves. It appears likely that the custom is simply a survival from cannibalism. Indeed, among the few remaining can nibal Dyaks in - Kootei it is still the custom to the remaindor of head for the the vietimn's body being divided among the com- reserve chief; the mon people ——— EDUCA'IONAL NOTES.
