Dr. Mary Warker has secured the al committee on clerkship of the spe woman suffrage, Just at present Dr. Walker is “too big for her pants.” CouLkctor RoBERTSON denies that \didate for the governorship he of New York. He finds it less work and larger pay to remain at the head of the custom house. Prruars Mayor Boyd will discover before he grows much older that this city needs a new marshal to make the police force effective. : Usiess the Douglas delegation to the legislature meet at an early day to agree upon the proposed amend- ments to the charter, Omaha will get no pavements during the next year. BeN BUTLER is reported to have re- cently declared that ““Of two things that I regret during all my career in the army, one is that I never hanged an editor.” The story of those spoons, which was given a wide pub- licity by the press, evidently haunts Ben yet. ik governor ot Minnesota has do* termined to stop the abuse of the par- doning powers in his state and has made a rule in regard to petitions for pardons which might be copied with advantage by the executives of other He will hereafter require the application for pardon with the name of all who sign it to be published in a newspaper at the capitol and in an- other in the county where the offense was committed. states. Tur necessity of some immediate action looking to the compulsory re- tirement of army officers is forcing itself upon congress. The army at present is top heavy with officers be- yond the proper age for retirement but for whom no provision is made on the retired list, which is limited n numbers and already filled, It is said that the bill now pending in congress which places the age for retirement at 60 years is favored by unine-tenths of the officera in the servico and will probably pass, Tue statement of the reduction i the public debt for the month of Jan- uary shows a ducrease of §12,978,830, which is nearly a half a million above the average reduction of the last seven months, From January 3lst, 1880, to January 3lst, 1881, the total debt reauction was over $139,- 000,000, and if the present rate is maintained, the current fiscal year| It is will show a refluction of $149,000,- 000. This rapid wiping out of the national debt, if continued, would entirely cancel the obligations of the government in ten years. A quarter of a century, however, must elapse before our entire funded debt can be extinguished in accordance with the terms of the original contract with the bondholders. The last install- ment of bonds will not become due and payable until 1907. This issue is the funded Ha@6s, bearing interest at four per cent in coin, and amount- ing in the aggrogate to $738,708,600, which eum is nearly one-half of th entire interest, bearing debt of the United Ktate — Tur memory of Missouri mosshaeks is very deficient. Now that Jay Gould has taken possecsion of about all the raidroads running west and southwest from St. Louis, it is sud- denly remembered that the Missouri constitution eontains this provisicn;: No railroad or other cayporation, or the lessces, puschasers or menagers of any railroad corporation, shall con- solidate the stock, property or fran- chise of such corporation with, or lease or purchase the works or fran- chises of, or inany way coutrol any railroad corporatioe owning or having under its control a parallel or compet- ing line; nor shall axy officer of such railroad corporation aet as an officer of any other railroad cerporation own- ing or having control of “a parallel or competing line, " This section applies directly to Gould’s recent railway grabbing oper- ations. He has placed twogreat com- peting corporations under one mau- sgement and has made himself presi- dent of both, It is safe to say that the railrodd king's money will have more effect on the law makers of Mis- souri than & doges oonstimtipnal pro- visions, return for this enormous outlay? The JkE says protection encourages home manufactures, Does it mean Nebras ka, when it uses the word “‘home!” 1f s0, where are they? The Bek pro fessos to be the great npion of anti-monopoly. Is it couvsistent or right to opposs monopoly as to rail roads and favor monopoly as to manu factures? When it reconciles the two directly opposite theories it will have demonstrated how to bring the anti podes together. Tt seems to us that Tur Bee has undertaken too great a job for it to carry out. The farmor has the same right to buy where he can buy the cheapest as he has to sel whero he can get the best price. Free trade means wealth to the prodicer and laborer alike, Protection menns wealth to the monopolist, and poverty and servitude to the farmer and laborer. How can Tue Bek reconcile these opposite theories? Tue Bre has the floor. Lot us hear its gontle hum, - Plattsmouth Journal. Under the federal constitution con gross alone has power to levy and col loct duties, imposts and which must be uniform throughout the Umted States. When congress fixes the tariff on imports in does not merely legislate for Nebraska but for all the people of the United States, The higheat aim of a democratic gov- ernment instituted by the people for the people, is to afford the greatest good to the greatest number. The duties levied upon articles of merchandise and productions import- ed from foreign countries into the United States yield a large revenue which would otherwise have to be col- The duty levied upon imports has stimulated industry and helped to make the United States independont of all foreign countries in manufac- ture: excises, locted by direct taxation. American Nobody can succossfully gainsay that this country is largely indebted for its present prosperity to the in dustrial development that bas given employment to several millions of skilled mechanics and workingmen at remunerative wi 8. Theiron inter- est alone, according to the census of 1880, gives employment to 140,978 hands, whoso carnings at 21.25 per day would aggregate $69,048,633 per annum. The total amount of capital invested in 1880 in iron and steel in- dustries in the United States was $230,971,884, as against $121,772,074 in 1870, or an increase of 89 per cent, of the whole amount invested in iron and steel. Pennsylvania’s share was 46 per cent., Ohio 11 per cent., New York 9 per cent., New Jersey and Missouri 4 per cent., and the remain- ing states and territories 30 per cent. Even Nebraska can point to some manufactures that thrive by reason of the tariff apart from the railroad, car shops and machine shops. We have nail mills, lead works, a shot factory, safe factory, and other con- cerns that employ hundreds of me- chanics and laborers. West of us we have a rail factory and rolling mills in Wyoming and Colorada whero these iron industries arc as yet only in their infancy. the manifest interest of American farmers to fostorand encour- age Amorican manufactures, because these industrial concerns afford them a profitable market for their products nearer home. This fact has long since been demonstrated to the satisfaction of farmers in Pennsyl- vania and Ohio, and more recently in Indiana and Illinois ~ where the growth of wmanufactures has knocked the free trade fallacy in tho hend. Nebraska farmers dorive al- most as much benefit from manufac- tures in Ohio and Pennsylvania us the farmers of those states, because all the farmers of this country are competitors in the world’s market and as long as the farmers of Ohio ana Paunsylvania can dispose of their product at home the Nebragka far- wmer is relieved from competition with the Ohio and Pennsylvania far- wmer. i When the mineral wealth of Wyo- ming, Colorado and Utah will befully developed under the protective policy the Nebraska farmer will find a profit- able market in that section. The statement that the American farmers pay 434 per cent. on 4,000 articlos they use is all moonshine. Most of the articles American farm- ers use are manufactured as cheap in this country as \hey could be import. ed and those imported from foreign countries are luxuries whick fow Awerican farmers make use of. For instance watches, diamonds, silks and velvots, paintings, ote. 1f any Ne- braska farmer can't get along with au American watch or American clothes let him pay for the luxury, Itissim- ply preposterous to claim that Ameri- can labor would be benefitted by free trade. Look at Canada where they have froo trade and labor goes beg- @k b oQananens, wages Why does nearly all the immigration from il UMAHA Kurope pour into the United States and why do Canadians flock across the border 7 Suppose this country should adopt a froe trade policy, which would put American labor on a level with the pauper labor of Earope and Asia, what would be the consequence! Would not the destruction of our manufacturing industries be followed first by a general decline in property values in our cities, and finally in a decline of farming lands and farming praducts Suppose you wipe out Pittsl and Philadelphia what would 1 ylvania farms be worth! And what of Tllinois if Chicago was compelled to close her factories! While opposing free trade as a fal- lacy Tur Ber is by no means opposed to a thorough revision of the tariff so adjusted as to prevent monopoly or extortion by manufacturers.

The appended table shows that the anuual appropriations required by Secrecrotary beginning with 1881 will be as fol- lows: Year. Amount.

The startling increase in tho number of pensioners after the passage of the ar- rearage bill and the inducements which it held out for perjury and claim agent swindling was proof enough of the disadvantage at which the. government had been placed by the cowardice ot its legislators. The bill to make ponsions retroactive was introduced by a demagogue and sup- ported by both parties through fear of losing the soldier vote The fow men who had the courage to oppose the measure as A gigantic swindle upon the treasury were denounced in public a4 deficient in gratitude to the de- fenders of the country, and the song was taken up in chorus by thousands of hungry claim agents, until the pas- sage of a steal of twice the dimensions would readily have been secured from congress with the oxecutive sanction, It was under tho same pressure that later the bill for the pensioning of the Mexican war widows and their sur- vivors was introduced. This measure which goes into operations on June 30, 1888, will take an additional §51,- 921,616 from the treasury. The only stone which seems to have been left unturned on behalf of the pension agents is the passage of a bill pen- sioning the grand children and great grand children of soldiers of the Roey- olution by which a couple of hundred millions in addition might judiciously have been extracted from the people. It is high time that steps should be takon to reduce theso swaggering fig- ures. The appropriation for the cur- rent yoar amounts to a tax of $1.50 on every man, woman and child in the United States. The nation has dealt generous'y with its brave defenders, and it is still willing to do all that can reasonably be asked of it. It feels the duty of maintaining, in their de- clining years, its crippled soldiers and of providing for the wants of those whom it calls its wards, But its gen- erosity has boen most outrageously im- posed upon by sharks, whose first ob- ject was to line their own pockets by fees, and who were assisted in their design by mon too weak to yoice jheir reel seatiments, Honorable veterans are rising in protest against the s@meful steal which is being committed under their names, but without their sanction, and & poti- tion numerously signed by genyine soldiers demands, in behalf of the voterans the repeal of the arrears of peusions act, If this is impractica- Lle congress ought at once to take stops looking to a thorough investi gation of the claims gained on ex parte testimony, and to this end a torce should be granted to the pen- sion buredn sufficient to make such a searching investigation that fraud It is safe to say that t DAILY BEE: can no more hide its head behind the bulwark of the law.

Ish & McMahon, (8) TUFSDAY FEBRUARY /( ioo2 Our Population Thirty Years Hence. Chicago Tribune. The ofticial figures of foreign immi- gration into the United States for the year 1881 present some facts, and toreshadow the probability of others, that are really startling. The total number of immigrants that came into the United States in the year was 719,000. During the latter part of the ar, and especially in December, this tide was about Hb# per cent greater than during the corresponding per of 1880. The disturbed state of Eu- rope, and especially in Germany, from which about one-third of our foreign immidrants come, makes it probable that the increase in 1882 over 1881 will be even greater than that of 1881 over 1880, and consequently, that during the current year we shall re- ceive considerably over 1,000,000 for- elgn immigrants. When we consider that in this intry the natural increase of popu lation by the excess of births over deaths doubles the resident popula- tion in less then twenty five yoars, it will be seen that it would require only about thirty years of the present influx of foreign population, together with their natural increases, to amount to a number equal to the total present population of the United States and territories, or about 50, 000,000, TIf to this we add the na- tural increase of the present popula tion at a rate of doubling every twenty-five years (which iseven longer than it really requires), 1t would give a total population of not less than 160,000,000 in 1912, When we think that it has taken 200 years for the accumulation of the present 50,000,000 of population in the United States, it seems @ first almost incredible that within the life- time of the great majority of men now living the population will be over three times as great as now; and yet it seems almost beyond question that this will be the case. Population n- creases with such enormous rapidity, not only in America, but in all parts of the globe, and especially where it has the fostering influence of civiliza- tion, that it is one of the great puzzles of human life to know what has thus far prevented every part of the world from being overcrowded with hiuman beings. In Europe, not- withstanding the loss of life by wars and epidemics, and all the de- crease of population by emigration, the increase is enormous. In 1839 the whole of Europe contained a little over 200,000,000 of people. The same territory now contains over 300,- 000,000, thus showing that the aver- age doubling period of European pop- ulation is about 100 years. England doubles her population about every fitty years, and Scotland in even a shorter period. The continental countries all require a longer period. Spain, France, Belgium and Sweden require a longer period than the couns tries further east- owing probably to the fact that population is already so impacted on the western coast of Eu- rope that the difficulty of obtaining subsistence checks the rapidity of the increase. The history ef the world shows no such greatand persistent movement of populalation as that now i1 progress m this country, except that which overflowed from the north upon the toman empire, nor can it be doubted that there are plenty of men now liv- ing who will witnessas momentous re- sults in the history of mankind from the present movement of population to America as were experienced from similar causes in the fifth and sixth centuries. These results, however, while quite as important, will nece: sarily be of a totally dif ter, Instead of a harb subverting an established ¢ as then, it is the mover ready civilizad and cultivated people into the hitherto unpeopled regions in the centre of the American continent, to create there, within the next half century, cities and improvements, population and industry equal to that in the centre of Europe. ~ RONARND Ty BYRON REED & CO.
