The full text of the call appears inour telegraphic columns. The call includes all the subjects of importance that re- quire legislative action and some upon which the legislature may, perhaps, Governor conclude to take no action. The special session is called for Wednesday, May 16th, and it is safe to predict the legislature will not ad- journ before the first of June. Had the session been called six weeks or two months ago, as was gen- erally desired the agony would long since have been over. The congressional apportionment will be the great bone of coutention of the session, and other legislation will be merely incidental. The proposed amendments to the city charter of Omaha which were agreed on by the Douglas county delegation weeks ago will doubtless be enacted during the first week of the session. If the spe- cial bond election is promptly called we may begin paving before the 4th of July. The militia expense bills for putting down the so-called riot in Omaha will draw out some decidedly interosting debates over the hasty and ill-.considered use of troops. Allin all, the session promises to be quite interesting. ANTI-MONOPOLY SENTIMENT. The growth of public sentiment against the menace of monopoly has more than kept pace withthe extension of monopoly power through consolida- tions of mammoth corpomations, The «question of restricting the dangemous power, and remedying the outrageous abuses of corporate monopolies is now the leacing theme of discussion in eviry statein the union, It is agi- tated in tho farm house, and discussed in the work shop and counting room. Ten yearsago every man who dared to raise his voice against the railroad robbers was denounced as a danger- ous character, and a fire brand in society. To-day so mighty has been the change wrought by an ever growing public sentiment that the monopolists are themselves put on tke defensive and compelled to beg for quarter from the people whom they can no longer bribe, cajole and hoodwink. And what has brought | feeling is well expressed in the follow- ing extract from The Brooklyn Eagle: There is a pretty general feeling that the continent of America was not dis- covered by Columbus, and civil liberty established by the Fathers of the Re- publie, to the end that fifty millions of people might be made tributary to a band of railroad magnates, or that farmers, artisans and merchants mighe by hard work and keen competition, raise up a dozen Vanderbilts, with osch several hundred millions of dol- lars, Those who entertain this feel- ing have become persuaded that the time has arrivad for the industrious masses ot thiscountry to protect them- selves,if theyeverintend todoso, It wil certainly not be easier after the ad- versary has grown stronger. In this contest every delay ia to the disad- vantage of the people. Lot the issue be deferred for a few years, and noth- ing but a miracle or a revolution as violent as that of Irance overthrow the oppression. Ui all misleading delusions, there is none more mis- chievous than the notion that popular suffrage and popular power are synonymous, Given the means ol bribing multitudes, of intimidatin others, of wrecking opponents coupie with actual possesriouu. the govern- ment, and adverse sentiment must be pllnlyzed. If the ;l;fl'nao"i:dto be ml" salvation, it must a) sharp! while there are still oftru on the un’- bought and unterrorized manhood. DISAPPEARING INVEST- MENTS. There is a loud complaint in eastern financial circles that means for legiti- mate investment are besoming scarcer and that money which ought to be accumulating wealth is lying uselessly piled up in bank vaults and private safes. The same state of affairs ex- ists to-day in New York which so worried the financiers of London two years ago. Government bonds have advanced so rapidly that the pre. mium which must be paid for their purchase almost eats up the interest. The continued manipulation and stock jobbing in railroad securities have created a profound distrust for this class of investment. Men hesitate in entrusting their money to com- panies where as it has well been said ‘‘the plans, the whims or needs of a single man can cause fluctuations which will wipe out three year’s inter- est in a week.” States and cities aro rapidly paying off their debts and calling in their bonds. Where six years ago five per cont. interest bear. ing securities of a municipial nature weuld have gone begging four per cents. are eagerly accepted, and the fature solvency of towns and cities is not;so closely inquired into as formerly where a bond bearing five or six per cert in interest is placed on the market, . about this marvelous change in pub- privilege of suing their husbands for damages in case of assaults and bat- tery or slander. ——— A sour» chunk of frozen wisdom is the remrrk of The Post-Dispatch that “‘it seems to be the luck of the demo- cratic party in Ohio. to always hold four aces when there is only twenty- five cents in the pot.” Next fall,when there is something worth the stake, it predicts that they won’t have ‘‘deuce high.” Mg, Jix Laiep’s Juniata and Has- tings papers are much exercised over the editorial conduct of Tur Ber which is altogethef too eutspoken on #he monopoly issue to suit their can- -didatefor congress. We confess we have not been able to construct a congres- sional race track on which any candidate could successfully ride two horses in -opposite directions at the same time, e ee—— J unak KiNNeY never will be par- doned by the leading democratic organ of Nebraska for allowing the demooratic members of the last legis- lature to compliment him with their votes for the honorable position of United Btates senator. The editor of the demecratio organ had promised these demooratic votes to a preferred ropublican ‘‘power and prestige” can- didate, and Judge Kinney will never hear the last of it. Inthis connestion it is decidedly in accord with the eternal fitness of things that Dr, Mil- ler, who has been a silent partner in army and Indian traderships be- stowed upon democrata by General Grant should berate Judge Kinney for accepting an interest in an Indian tradership under Garfield or Arthur —— The president is to be invited to at: tend the opening of the Denver in- dustrial exposition. He ought to accept and ought to attend, for to the ‘best of our knowledge General Arthur has never been west of the Alleghen- ies, and at any rate west of the Mis- sissippi, and the trip would do him good, and convince him that the Uni- ted States comprises more country than can be seen from the tower of the city hallin New York, or even from the cupola of the ocapital in ‘ashington.. ity TEnu. PresiENT ARTHUE travelled west was a mere village. He crossed the Missouri and entered bleeding Kan- #as as far back as 1856, and there met with many exciting adventures and in- cidents in the border war. He visited Omaha in the spring of 1857 with a wiew of locating here and remained a month, during which time as he has recently related to the editor of Tus Bee, he made the acquaintance of nearly all the early settlers of Omaha and Florence, Bhould he decide to revisit this city, he will meet with a eordial receptiou. lic sentiment!? The public press at first hung back from entering upon a fight which seemed hopeless. Men of business shrank from committing themselves to a policy of outspoken hostility to the crimes of common ocarriers, upon whem they were de- pendent to a greater or less degree for their mercantile prosperity. Cer- tainly the hundreds of thousands of railrond employes were not the men to inavgurate a movement or arouse public sentiment against their employers. It remained for the agricultural classes of the country who suffered most from the rack renting policy of the railroad robbers to first raise their voices against the monopoly minions and they did so with no uncertain sound. They were supported ‘by a fow honest and fearless journals who were not under corporation control. If the grange had fulfilled no other end than merely evidencing the vigorous demand of our farmers for relief from the burdens which oppressed them, it would have done excellent service.’ The facts which they presented could neither bo ridiculed or ar- gued away, and public senti- ment, slow to express iteelf, gradually came to understand the danger which menaced the greatest branch of industry of the nation, The people began to see that the country was becoming divided into two olasses, onoe | clonging to and con- trolled by the wonopolies and the other compelicd to submit to their control, Gigantic considerations of o pital were spri: givg up on every hand; a tendvicy to concentrate and consolidale wealth by monopolizing the wealth resources of the nation was everywhere apparent, It was seen that irade, commerce, industry, logislation itself suffered under the ban of monopoly and legislatures were bribed and courts purchased to register the tyranical decrees of theso feudal barons of the nineteenth cent. ury. Voiced by the press, now aroused to the danger which threat- ened every interest of the country, public opinion began to make itself felt. Five of our states have already passed laws restrioting and ocontroling the railroads. Bills to the same effect are pending in three others, while every indication sustains the BoTiof that the question whether the people shall control the ratlroads or the railroads the people, will enter largely inio the next presidential cam- paign. Congress is feeling the pres- sure of & public opinion which is daily growing in force as new outrages aud new evils on the part of the mon- opoly managers are uncovered and re- Financial journals are anxiously discussing the future of investments, ‘I'he usual openings seem to be clos- ing, and the only remedy that pre- sonts itself is the employment of cap- ital in new fields. There are other and as safe means of investment in the undeveloped resources of the country. The cure for the prevailing eomplant must come not from new railroads with their watered stocks, whose value is ever subject tothe whims and manipulations of corrupt shysters, It will be found in the opening, on a great scale, of raw pro- duction to aggregate investment, Un- oultivated millions of acred only|¥ await the application of wealth and labor to give munificent returns for the muscle and money expended in their development. thirty years France has doubled her wheat product as the result of high cultivation of her soil, induced by the proper expenditnre of money, and the time may not be far distant when our great capitalists will see in agriculture on 2 large scale a profitable opening for the wealth whioh they hesitate to invest in other and more perilous un- dertakings, — THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, The last annual election of the Omaha fire department resulted in s break up. A majority of three vol- unteer companies, which also was a majority of the whole department, withdrew before any candidate for fire chief had been elected, One company end fragments of the other remained and went through the form of an clection, This faction elected Mr. Welsh and presented his name to the mayor for appointment., The other companies filed a protest against this choico, asked the mayor to nominate somebody who had not been & candi- date, and pledged their support to the man the mayor and the council would see At to appoint. Under the circum. stances Mayor Boyd had but one course to pursue, and that was to nominate a man who bad no part in the disgraceful scramble for the posi- tion of fire chief. At the last meeting of the council | seribed the mayor nominated John W, But- ler and his nomination was confirmed Thereupon a special meeting of No, 2 Fire King Engine Co. was called and a majority cf that company voted tha its members hold aloof from aotive service for one year, This course was evidently decided upon because the mayor did not see fit to ratify their ohoice, Mr, Welsh, Porhaps it is well that this course was taken. It 15 much better that overy disaffected fireman shall lay off than have the city run the risk of & con- flict or mutiny at some us fire where life and property ?:I.I‘:vdo- pend upon sotive support and 00-0p- eration ot fireman fice chiof, "Thare has- boan lsorrs Within the last,| and wrangling in the department for years, and a rivalry had sprung up hetween companies and their pet can- didates which boded nogood tothe city. This condition of affairs had to come to an end some time, and we are per- haps as well propared to face the | trouble now as ever. The power of the mayor and council to appoint the fire chief nobody disputes. Mr. Bat- ler has been appointed and he should have the cheerful support of every active fireman as long as he remains at the head of the department. If any fireman is unwilling to do ac- tive duty under Mr. Batler he had better withdraw, and let somebody else take his place. A compact and harmonious force, even with reduced numbers, will be much safer and more efficient thana large body of disaffected men. One thing is self-evident. The whole department must be reorgan- ized as moon as possible. There should be for the protection of the city an increase of hose carts and a reduc- tion in the number of steamers. Every ward ought to have at least one hose cart, and twn should remain nthe business center. The volun. teer companies that are disposed to serve should be recruited with active men, and there should be better dis- cipline all along the line. These sug- gestions are made in the interest of and for the good of the city. Mgz, MaHONE is having trouble in keeping his Virginia readjusters in line. The legislature, which was supposed to have a working read- juster majority, failed to pass their reapportionment bill through the state senate and the scheme by which they had confidently hoped to secure eight out of the ten congressmen, fell to the ground. Four readjusters and ono straight.out republican voted with the democrats against the bill. Mr. Mahone must distribute patron- age more evenly if he expects to hold his own in the Old Dominion.

Wasbingten Special o Cincinnati Commercial. There is a good deal of gossip going the rounds concerning President Ar- thur’s matrimonial intentions. It is a favorite topic of conversation i certain social circles, where the Dpilg ion pravails that it will zot be a great while before the president will change his condition of life. I met a lady re- cently who knew the president’s wife in her girlhood, and who describes her as a lovely girl with brown hair and eyes, a daughter of Captain Hern- don, of Fredericksburg, Va., who commanded the ill-fated Pacific mail steamer Central America, and was lost with her. Mrs Herndon, after her husband’s death, went to New York to live, and there Arthur met and married her daughter Alice, whose picture hangs over the president’s bed at the white hcuse. *‘There is this to say of President : Arthur,” said a lady whose name was conspicious in society circles during the Hayes gime. ‘“‘No other man I know of could maintain his social position with the extreme good taste assistance. He has more tact th half the women in the country, an is an expert in saying those little things, which, though trivial in them- selves, go 8o far toward establishing success in Washington. A lady now in Washington, but who lives on the Hudson near New York City, where her husband knew Mr, Arthur many yeara ago, was recently presented to the president, who delighted her by saying, ‘Ah, Brownstone, I re- member your husband very well in- deed. T now see why he used to hurry off up the Hudson so frequently, and why he seemed 80 much benefited by his trips.’ Of course the lady was pleased to think the president remem- bered her husband so well, and when- ever our little club meets some- body is called on to tell her experience with the president.” President Arthur is a frequent at- tendant at St. John’s Episcopal church, which stands just across the park from the white house, and which has always been a fashionable place of worship. It is one of the oldest church edifices in Washington, and resembles an old Virginia court house more than an Episcopal church It is impossible to rent a pew for love or money now, and has been all winter. The government in early days always had a pew there, but there has been no Episcopalian presi- dent for so long that President Ar- thur pays for his own, The little Campbellite church, was so thronged during President = Garfield’s reign, hudroggeu out of sight again, al- though the Garfield pew, w%lere his assassin used to watoh him through that Mr. Arthur does without a lnd};’s osity to a few strangers. President Arthur is said to have been very much disgusted with the Eublin reception held at the white ouse during General Grant's visit, and it 18 reported that his receptions invited guests. This is not likely to meet with much popularity. The people love to go to the white house and look about, for they feel and often claim that thisis due them, because they own the house and the president does not, The damage done to the building by last week’s crush was suffi- cient to disgust one, however, and a few more like it would be disastrous to the elegant furniture and the deco- rations which have recently been com- pleted. Several of the large double doors had to be entirely scraped and revarnished 1n order to obliterate the scratches made by the coat buttons, jewelry, etc., on the clothing of the them, Winding up “Stewart's.” A gentleman who was for many ears in the employ of A. T, Stewart, Kut left the concern run in his name within the past Iou, and 1s now with a rival firm, said to an Evening Post nwrtar: hen I was with Stewart, I had charge for years of the shawl depart- ment, E"ri mnrnix:lg Mr. Stewart went through the department and made his critscisms to me. If a cost- ly shawl had remained on exhibition more than a few weeks without find- ing a buyer, he was sure to notice and would say to me in his querulous drawl: ‘Mr. ——, Isee you have that shawl still. Why can't you sell it? Is it marked too high! What can you get for itl" If Teaid that it would sell at $100 he would answer, “Well, it cost me $80, but mark it down to $90,"” and it | fert. same way with every article l:“&‘oh ‘badldi ;IL knew ll”{ho stuff was selling as it ht to, and what it had cost him. Now look af the the window, is still an object of curi- | and hereafter will only be attended by | * crowds that were squeezed through [ CAGC change. [don’t suppose that Mr. Hilton knows the first cost of ten kinds of goods out of the ten thous- and offered for sale in his store. An- other point of importance was the care which Stewart lonked after the salesmen he employed. He came to me one morning, and, pointing out a young man, said, “Mr. M—-—, who is that yovng man there! He wears too big diamonds —bigger than 1 can afford. Don’t let me see him here again.” By walking rapidly through the most crowded part of the store he could tell how each clerk was doing his duty. From the number ot Stewart sales- men who apply to us we have known for the last three years that a con- stant shrinkage in their business was going on. Oue of their salesmen who was in here this morning trying to find a berth before he is dismissed said that when Stewart died there were 29 men employed at his counter—the dress-goods department. Now there are eight men left and not enough for them to do, There were 2,200 hands in the retail store in 1876; now there are 800. 1see that the papers say a great deal about the effects of Hilton’s anti- Jowish policy, but I do not believe that the patronage of any one class, or the loss of it, would seriously help or hurt such a house. What injured the business far more was Mr. Hil- ton's course in connection with the Women’s Home-—now the Park avenue hotel. We have many good customers on our books who transferred their account to us sosn after that affair.” Other persons w!lo were consulted attributed the decline of the great Stewart business .argely to the hostil- ity of tho Jews to Judge Hilton, Se—— Frank James Organiaing a Gang of Desperados to Aveuge His Brother’s Death, Ateh! 8., Epecial to The Chica,o Tribune. The smoke from the revolver which laid Jesse James low has cieared away, and the consequent excitement has partially died out. The centre of at- traction connected with the tragedyis neither the incendiary editorial of John Edwards, the outlaw’s widow, nor the spot which holds him in Kearney, but is transferred to another vortion of the state, being the St. Joseph jmland Robert and Charles Ford within its walls. After a moment the people recovered from the shock, and yet with the satisfaction which accompanied the bullet's sound it was conceded that the simplo spilling of one man’s blood would cause the death of every man connected with the killing of the lead- er of the band of outlaws Kansas City would fain blush to recognize. Your correspondent has come into the knowledge of facts which positively establish the theory that Frank James is at the head of a movement which has for its aim the extermination of all whose names are associated with the death. The fact is known to a few that Frank James passed through Atchison Friday, going southwest, having four people with him; that on the same day Mrs. Jesse James went to Kansas City Yesterday Frank James returned from a myste- rious visit, followed by the same pals. My inforiant states that the gang of which Frank James will now take the lead is taken from that section of the country in the Missouri bottoms oppo site here which produced Polk Wells, Bill Norris, Jim Dougherty, John Pomfrey, and many others, composed of the same class and material, hav- ing for its purpose theavenging of the death of Jesse James and other law- less deeds. To this gang will be added a few tried mountain outlaws that Frank James picked up during a residence for some time in New Mex- ico on a small sheep ranch. Robert and Charles Ford are never to enjoy a moment's peaces, no matter what the advice or assuranes from Gov. Critten- den. These brothers begin where Jesse James left off. They will be hunted and hounded as persistently as he was. . Were the the reward they are supposed to obtain twenty times $50,000, it will not purchase one day’s rest, one peaceful meal, or blessed night. These boys are not alone to be removed, but all informants and witnesses in Cracker Neck. These death-avengers are backed by the entire constituency of Jesse James. This is the plan as made known by one who should know. Trouble .
