The republican electors of the state of Nebraska are hereby called to send dele- gatos from the several counties to meet in state convention at Omaha on Wednesday, September 2th, A. D., 1882, at 7 o' ‘clock . 1., for the ptirpose of placing in nomi: nation cardidates for the following named sonse of an early but gradual decline in the market has fmade capital very chary of investment, and before long the condition of things will settle down to some definite basis, which will more nearly represent the precise valuation of real estate in Omaha. This applies not so much to business property as to residence lots, and more especially lots in the various ad- ditiona outside, which have been the subject of quite a feverish specula- tion. Tt is 80 every now and then in all our western cities, and Omaha can not expect to be an exception. —e Unper the tub law of Hon., Geo. W. Doane chetries, apples and penchos can be sent from Nebraska City to Omaha at forty-three cents a hundred, From the same point to Council Bluffs the rate is twenty-five centa on the samo fruits, This gives Omaha consumers of fruit a taste of the Doane flavor. We congratulate the anti-monopolists upon this tri- umph. —Omaha Herald. From Nebraska City to Omaha by way of Council Bluffs, you have to come across a bridge which has be- come mnotorious as the robbers’ toll gate.

DAWES, Chairman, Joun STeEN, Secretary. LixcoLy, Neb,, July 6, 1882, The Coloraeo editors have gone east to get warm. The Nobraska edi- tors are going to Colorado to cool offy —_— Dr. ScHWENCK needs another cer- tificate of character, and our Val should at once apply to the secretary of the exterior, Brigadier General Al- exander. Is George Francis Train dead? —The Hour, George Francis is not dead but only sleoping. When he wakes you may look for a psychological revolution. AvLEXANDER swears he loft the date of that census certificate blank when he delivered it to Schwenck, and Sohwenck swears he did not fill the blank out, but Majors swears the blank #as filled when he received it from Schwenck. Somebody has sworn toalie. If we were asked to guess, we would say Dr. Schwenck. — WueN Gen, Butler captured New Orleans thirty-six young men took an oath of everlasting enmity to the United States and were expelled from the city. They went to Charleston and served in the rebel army there, The 28th of June is the anniversary of the capture of Fort Moultre,and that city recognizes it as a holiday. In the last celobration special invitations were sent to this ‘‘enmity squad,” or their representatives, to take part in the ceremonies. How's that for loyalty? Ir is singular what a community of interests exists in the markets of the world, ““One touch of nature makes all the world akin,” was the olden motto, but now the electric energy that moves the world and makes it all akin is the pocket nerve, The roar of those English guns thousands of miles away sent the grain market up with a rush, and their silence brought it down again. Wheat futures fell off heavily on the cessation of the con flict. Corn advanced, then declined, and a general sympathy with the eastern disturbance was noticeable all along the line. _— Ok of the signs of the prosperity of Omahais the extravagantidea people entertain of the value of property, Property is ruling at prices so far above the reasonable rate that there is no confidence in the stability of the market, Whale the city is progiess- ing as repidly as any place in the west, it is manifestly impossible to keop rents and prices up to the high figures which have prevailed. This , grain, coal, lumber, flour or fruit shipped over this bridge from ten to twelve dollars are exacted, part of which exaction goes into the pocket of the editor of the Omaha Herald for backing the robbers. That may ex- plain in part why it costs a good deal more to ship a basket of peaches, cherries or apples from Ne- braska City to Omaha than it does to Council Bluffs, But there may also be a good deal of extortion in these charges which cannot bo ex- plained on any other ground except- ing the greed on the part of the rail- roads. For instance you can travel from Nebraska City to Council Bluffs over the Kansas City road for three cents per mile, but they charge four cents a mile if you travel on the Ne- braska side of the river over the road o 9| owned by the same company. Eigh- ) teen months ago they charged five cents a mile on the Nebraska side, while they only charged three cents a mile on the Towa side, simply because the laws of Iowa limit the rate to three cents a mile. But we presume the silent partner of the bridge toll robbers will still insist that it is a bad policy to limit railroad charges by law. Wuy can’t an accidental editor emulate an incidental editor in abbre- viating to three columns his *‘last words " on any subject? For bulling the brain market and going it long on wit, we commend the incidental editor of the Republican to those late la- mented ‘“last words,” They take the cake, Elegantly written, but too short and too utter They remind us of the big Dutchman who plays the Duke of (ilocester in burlesque, when he dies in the last scene. As he falls the ‘“ soups " run in to carry out the body, and as they reach the middle of the stage the corpse breaks away and rushes back to the footlights with the pathetic exclamation: *‘ Mein Gott, mein Gott, dose last words vat I for- got!” and goos into a soliloquy of such leogth that it clears the hall, Cumer Justice Hunter, of Utah, is being investigated by the depart- ment of justice. The judge has made the mistake of not keeping with mem- bers of the bar. He seems to have been consiberably possessed by the dignity of his place, and to have kept his head too high above the level of Salt Lake. There are some unpleasant ru- mors concerning the probity of his public and private life. Of course a judge cannot be held responsible for his judicial acts or decislons, however erroneous they may be, provided no just suspicion or evidence exists of a corrupt motive. But there are some charges affecting the official conduct of the chief justice, which we hope this investigation will disprove. The com- plaint against his clerk, Averill, is substantial that he spends his time in New York and Europe and has his work done by a deputy. The office must be unusually fat to enable Mr, Averill to indulgo in such luxurious living, —_— J. W. Rouuins, the man that be. came famous in these parts as mana- ger of tho Inter-Ocean washstand, has at last been rewarded. President Arthur has made Robbins surveyor general of Arizona, although Robbins knows no more about surveying than a hog does about dancing on a tight rope. But Robbins deserves well of his country, He pledged Nebraska to Grant and carried her solid for Blaine. He promised to re-elect Paddock on the first ballot, and sent Van Wyck to the senate, He was one of the most conspicuous figures at General Garfield's funeral. and it was Robbins who had the assurance to push himself forward among the mourners at Lake View cemetery, under pretext of paying a last tribute to the dead President, and there sought to impose on popular credulity by asserting that at the most exciting period of the Chicago convention Garfield rose from his seat and whis. pered into Robbius' capacious ear, “ Are there any Hiram boys in the gallery 7' This slory struck a very sympathetic chord among the mourn- ing assemblage, but it was & bigger lie than ever Eli Perkins coined in his palmiest daye, Bat Robbins is now rewarded, and the JInter Ocean washstand will be transferved from Washington to Ari- zona, OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. The emperor of Russia has drawn his autocratic bead on the sale of liquor in his dominions. He orders only one liquor shop to a village and that must be run by the village coun- cil and be responsible for all drunk- enness, What a soft place is the mayoralty of a Russian town with its liquor mon- opoly. The French premier, for that is the real place which Gambetta holds, in- tended only another international regatta in the bay of Alexandria, and forgot the hot Mussulman blood on shore. England calculated closely the entire cost, and figured only on British interests, The first act in the bloody drama closes on an ancient city in ruins, and a desperato Arab chief, entrenched in the country back of it, with 28,000 well armed and dis- ciplined Saracens, covered by seven corps of the wild cavalry ef the desert, propared to dispute the Eng- lish advance. Another act or two will probably end the bloody drama. The Egyptian army numbers 50,000 men mostly armed with Remington rifles. The body is composed of Arabs, native Egyptians and negroes. In the recent local campaign the negro troops have proved themselves better than the Egyptians. The Bedouin qualities as the American Indian, They are valliant in ambush but very seldom can face artillery. The Egyptian army was organized by American officers, and as far as it has any efficiency it is their creation. These officers - some twenty-five in number—went to Egypt in 1867, nearly all broken in fortune and filled with high hopes in their new employ- ment. They were induced to enter the service of the Khedive at the in- stance of General Thaddeus P, Mott; ason of Dr, Valentine Mott, who served in ‘Ttaly during the Franco- Italian war, and afterward became a Bragidier-General in the Union army. The most prominent among the Americans that entered the Egyptian army was Gon, Charles P. Stone, who almost immediately became chief of staff, and soon after firmly established himself in a post similar in power and authority to that of Gen, Von Moltke towards the German armies, An oflicer of 1o less note was Lor- ing Pasha, who, in 1849, performed the most diflicult and pains-taking march known in American military annals,. He conducted a regiment supplied with artillery across the Rocky Mountains to Oregon—a five months’ tramp, He subsequently en- gaged in the Mexican war, leaving an arm on the field, but when the civil war came he cast his fortunes with the south. When he left Egypt, where he was commandaht of Alexandria, the Khedive gave him $50,000, which it is underatood has almost melted away in disastrous speculation. It was Gen. Loring who constructed almost all of the important defenses of Alexandria, commanded the disas- trous expedition against Abyssinia, and whose hand is visible in the mili- tary organization as it exists to- day. He is living in New York, engaged upon a book re- counting the experiences of his life. The career of Gen. Charles P. Stone is known to all army officers, and had he remained in his original position on the army list there is scarcely an offlcer in the active service that would now rank him, He was, however, at the instance of the late Senator Sum- ner, sent to Fort Lafayette on charges of treasonable conduct at the battle of Ball's Bluff, and was subsequently dis- missod. This event nearly upset his reason; but he rallied, became a min- ing engineer, and finally accepted the position at the head of the Egyptian staff, which he still holds. His con- duct in Egypt has both highly praised and severely criticised. One thing is cortain, He was about the only American ofticer who was able to hold his place against all intrigue, first with Ismail Pasha, the deposed khe- dive, and then with his son, Tewfik, his successor. Gen, Stone not only undertook to organize the present army, to revolutionize the rotten methods he found in vogue, but he set on foot a comprehensive system of central African exploration, under Col, C. C. Long, Sparrow Purdy, and Majors Mason, Prout, and Dye, The oflicers now remaining at the scene of conflict are Gen, Stone, Col. €. 0. Long and Maj Mason, It is hardly probable thatany of the American officers will participate in the struggle, with the exeption of General Stone, and it is extremely doubtful if he will be permitted to re- tain any important command if a re- ligious war grows cut of the present situation, The temporary closing of the Suez canal naturally revives public interest in this great chanuel of commerce be- tween Hurope and the Indies, The Suez canal, bogun in 1 was opened to ships on November 17, 18G9, The idea of the canal was not & new oue, Sesostris Pharaoh Necho, the Romans, and the Arabians always entertained it. Their plan, however, was simply to unite the Nile and the Red Sea, the Medi‘erranean route be- ing unthought of. In 1799 the line acros the isthmus was surveyed by Napoleon I., but the engineer, La Pere, having reported a difference in the level between the two seas, the project fell through, and it was not revived vntii M. Fer- dinand de Lesseps took 1t up, and undaunted by all adverse criti- cisms, obtained a permit from Said Pasha to begin operations. A com- pany—La Oampagnie Universello— was formed in 1850 with a capital of £8,000,000—200,000,000 franc-—ulti- mately increased to £18,000,000~ 450,000,000 francs. The Mediterra- nean debouchment was at Port Said, then a miserable Arab village, built in » dreary, arid waste. The termin- ation of the canalis at Suez, Red sea, twonty years ago a most miserable place, but now a prosperous and pop- nlous seaport town with more than 5,000 inhabitants. The length of the canal is ninety-six miles; its breadth at the top from about 200 to 325 feet, at the bottom seventy-two feet, snd its depth twenty-six feet; the banks slopping upward in the proportion of from two feet to one foot, up to with- in #ve feet of the surface, and thence a8 five to one, the latter slope allow- Arabs have about the same fighting | ing the waves of passing vessels as they towed, or asthey steam along at the rate of about six miles an hour, to break on the banks as smoothly as on a sea beach, | AtPort Said have been constructed two enormous jetties, which extend 6,940 feet and 6,020 feet into the Mediterranean, and enclose a harbor of about 450 acres in ares, with a depth in the ship channel of from 26 to 28 fest. In the construction of these jetties huge blocks of concrete were used, weighing twenty-two tons each. At the Suez end docks on a proportionately large scale, sufficient to float frigates, have been built. About half way across the canal is a completely new town, Ismaila, at the the head of Lake Timsah, on the other side of the bank being the khedive's chalet. About thirty miles above Suez is the Bitter lake, a shect of water some twelve miles long from enst to west, from whose eastern limit to Suez the canal runs between high and narrow banks. From Is- maila runs in a northwesterly direc- tion to the end of the old canal at Gassaleen the fresh water canal, thirty miles long and sixty feet deep, which was necessary for supolying the work- men who built the ship canal. This was finished in 1861, at a cost of £28,000. From Ismaila to Suez, a distance of fifty miles, are pumped daily, through iron pipes, 65,000 cubic feet of water. The dis- tance saved by the canal in the jour- ney to India is nearly half that by the Cape of Good Hope—that is to say, while from the English channel to Point de Galle, in Ceylon, by the lat- ter route was 11,650 miles, by the Suez canal it is 6,615 miles, the only addition to the passenger fares being 85, 4d. a head, and the same amount per ton for freight. The traffic through the canal since the opening, in 1866, on which occa- sion 130 vessels passed through free of toll, has vastly increased. In 1870, up to July 81, 402 ships had made use of it, of which only 12 were sailing vessels, and by the end of the last year 406 ships had traversed its course, with a gross tonnage of 486,- 000 tons; in 1879 the number of ves- sels was 1,477, with 3,286,000 tons; in 1880 the number was 2,728 vessels and 5,794,000 tons, 79 per cent of which flew the British flag. England’s stake in the canal, be- sides its importance to her as a route to India and Australia, is no small one, when It is remembered that in November, 1875, Mr. Disraeli, on the part of the government, acquired by purchase shares to the amount of £4,000,000. Exactly why Garibaldi's last request to be cremated was not granted does not yet appear. There may have been, as asserted, a slight inconve- nience in the way of transporting the body, but the French and Italian journals since his burial contain ac- counts of a number of crematories, at any of which it could have been burned ai small cost and trouble, The perfection to which this ghastly business has been brought will sur- prise even its advocates in this coun- try or Europe, 1In Milan a body can be cremated in an hour, the cost be- ing at the outside §56. The Siemens furnace at Dresden is still more quick in its action, There are several furnaces in France in which the time of incineration ranges from one hour to two, and the cost from four to five dollars, The Kuboen ap- paratus is intended for the battlefield, and reduces twelve bodies at once in an hour and a half to an indistin- guishable mass of gray ashes. The Catholic clergy in Italy are now urg- ing cremation strongly on their par- ishioners. The trus cause, however, of the refusal of Garibaldi's family to cremate his body was not economy, but probably an undefined supersti- tious reluctance which they shared with all Italy utterly to destrsy the wan who had wrought so greata work. The good people of Kansas will be grieved to learn that Senator Plumb, although worn out with his arduous labor refuses to take the much-needed recreation, which hia friends at Wash- ington have so urgently suggested. Our informant the Washington cor- rospondent of the Chicago Times dwells with a good deal of emphasis upon the debt of gratitude which the people of Kansas willJfor ever owe to their overworked senator, who is just now on the anxious seat for re.elec- tion, If the Washington correspon- dent had not put it onso thick the compliment he pays to Me. Plumb might have passed for a voluntary tribute of an adurirer. As it is we begin to suspect that the overworked senator from Kansay has found time enough to tickle tho reporters, a prac- tice which by the way is very common with eminent statesmen during the last months of their term We of Nebracka have long ago become fa miliar with this sort of political bun- kum. Even our own Val. is puffed by Washington reporters as a man who is badly overworked and needs recreation. We all know that Val., like the Kansas senator, absolutely refuses to get out of the harness. We fear his friends will never be able to induce him to take a vacation until they have retired him from public life. MUSICAL AND DRAMATIOC, d Janauschek sailed for England last Mon. ay.
