We are reliably informed that a villainous scheme has been concocted by personal and political enemies of Senator Van Wyck to connect his name with alleged brokerage in post tradorships and blackmail of applicants for federal patronage. Tho conspira- tors are preparing a bombshel in the shape of an affidavit from Walter W, Seeley, a former private secrotary of the senator, whom they are coaching to swear to a tissue of falaehoods which in some way will couple the senator's name with charges of huck- stering in patronage and levying black- le of This man Sceley is capa mail. some very mean things and the tomptation which the cow- ardly assassins of character who aro behind this plot have placed in his way may be too much for him. woley was dismissed by thé senator lnst spring for disreputable conduct, and he has b en vowing vengeance and threatening ever since, The basis for the bombshell against Gen’l Van Wyck 15 said to be the charge published by the notorious blackguard, Santee, of Niobrara, who is acting in conjunction with Valentine in the work of defama- tion. Those charges involve a party from Niobrara, who issaid to have extorted money from post trahers in Northern Nebraska and Dakota by threats, The fact that Senator Van Wyck has given this man employment is to be distorted into collusion, and as o clincher, Seeley is to make aflida- vit that he personally kn«ws such to be the case.

If he has erred at all since his advent to the senate, he has done so in giving countenauce to men, who like Walter Seeley, have proved themselves unworthy of his confidence.

WHEN any committee to whom an important public matter has been re- ferred for inyestigation imposes upon the legislative body by a false state- ment thoy lay themsolves liable to the seyerest consure, At the last meoting of the council a report signed by Messrs, Baker and Dunham was submitted on the compot- ing bids for the cily printing which bears on its face tho stamp of falsc- hoad. Mr. Baker who championed this imposture worked himself toa white rago over the matter and literally bullied the council into an approval of his fraudulent figures by bantering members and outsiders, to bet on their correctness, Now we happen to know what Baker's grievance is against Tue Bee, and if we wore disposed to make it public, he would not appear in a very creditable light. But whatever his personal grievance Mr. Baker had no right to impose a tissuo of falsehoods upon the council for facts, and the only plausible ex- cuse ho can offor 1s that he is himself the victim of an imposition. We are informed Mr., Dunham signed Mr, Baker's statement, belicving it to be correct, but he has since discovered it was a fabrication There were three bids for advertis- g before the committee, the bid of Tug Bee publishing company for the morning edition being much the low- est, tho Republican bid next highest, and the evening edition of Tue Bek higher than the Republican, Messrs, Baker and Dunham, in their report start out by saying they do not propose to consider the bid for the morning edition of Tuk Bk as not being in accordance with the spirit of the advertising or the public interests, Now where, we pray, was there anything in the advertisement that would exclude the morning edi- tion of Tre Bk or any other paper, even a weekly paper, if its publishers saw fiv to bid? The advertisement of the city clerk made no conditions whatever us to the number of publi- cations or circulation, The only infer- ence a8 to the spirit or intent of the proposal and the regard which Messrs, Baker and Dunham had for the public ivterests in the city printing must be drawn from their coamse in the council when it was proposed that each paper should submit & sworn ‘statement of its ciroulation, Both Baker and Dunhaw insisted that luinuhfion should have nothing te do THE DAILY BEE with this question and they are so recorded, but now in order to force a job upon the council Mr. Baker comes in with a statement that the publicin- torest does require local circulaticn inthe medium chosen for the city ad- vertising. As a medium of general circalation the morning edition of TaE Beg, with more than four thousand subscribers, circulates nearly three times as many papers daily as the ag- gregate of the Republican, and locally in the city of Omaha the Republican has no circulation that would entitle it to be re arded as a newspaper. At the last meeting of the council it was openly charged that the Repub- lican didn’t circulate more than two or three copies in the second ward; where g edition of Tur Bek circu lates over 400, But the imposture upon the council the even was contained in Mr. Baker’s compari- non between the cost of advertising in the Republican and the evening edi- tion of Tue Ber. Mr. Baker re- ported over hissignatnre that the bids of the Omaha Republican range from 50 to 200 per cent lower on outside pages than those of the evening edi- tion of Tugr Bk, and from 10 to 150 per cent lower than on the inside pages of Tue Bek. This is & downright and impudent falsehood. The Republican has made no bid for outside pages, and Mr. Baker knew it if he ever looked at their bid, They submitted only one bid, with one set of figures, and it is at their option to publish the adver- tising on any page they choose. The figures upon which Mr. Baker basod his charge that Tue Bee was same as the price at which it held the 9 0 1lthe senator on this subject, but we|contract for last year. 18 Tho only reliable basis must be the advertising by the city during the past year. Wo have taken paius to com- pute and compare this advertising and we find that during the six months ending July 1, 1882, the advertising done by Ti Bre under contract with the city aggregate 8357.87. The same would Republican bid aggregaie In other words, it would cost the city the most searching inquiry into his |34} per cent more to advertise in the evening edition of Tne Bee than it does in the Republican, There is con- siderable difference between Mr. Baker's 173 per cent and 34 per cent. Mr. Dunham himsclf admitted that the circulation of Tue Bek in Omaha was at least five times as large as the Republican. The excess of charge is 34} per cent as compared with the ex- cess of circulation 500 per cent, which shows that, as a business proposition, the bid of Tue BeE was by far the lowest. It is but natural that mem- bers of the council who were not on the committee should accept Mr. Baker’s version as truthful and vote to suatain him, but even if Mr. Baker had not imposed on them, they could hardly afford to jeopardize the vital interests of the city and insult their constituents by advertising in a paper that does not reach one-tenth of the paoplo that read newspapers in this Qommunity, Tue democratic party has been playing its old game all through the long months of this long session, Fiudiog the republicans in a bare ma- jority, but enough to hold them re- spousible before the country for the work of the session, the democrats have simply been playing the part of obstructionists, or, what is worse, have endeavored to load down legis- lation with every possible ex- travagance and objectionablo fea- ture they could crowd inio it. Politics, not business, has been the key to democratic action this session, It the reduction of the tariff was sug- gestkd, they moved in a body to re- duce the income beyond the point at which the necessities of the public ad- ministration could afford it. If the expenditures were to be increased, either in the pension matter or in the river and harbor bill, they united with any element in the republican party, ready to go into an ill-advised scheme, The oftice of an honest, patriotic mi- nority is to restrain the majority and temper their measures with debate and wisdom, to prevent haste and mistake, to act as the balance wheel of legislation But in this session the democrats, with their large vote, held solid in the hand of a few loaders like Randall, Cox and others, have just crouched like a huge ser- pent, to poison and crush the best efforts of the party in power. They have loaded down the riverand harbor bill with §20,000,000, and have done nothing but embarrass and destroy the honest work of the republican party. WueN the Omaha board of trade of trade was agitating the paving ques- tion, it was generally agroed and so understood by the committee that was instructed to draft the charter amendments that the board of publie works, acting in concert with the mayor and council, should have the power to pave any street that should, in their opinion, be so 1mproved, It is given out ‘that a construction is placed upon the new law that will re- strain the board and council from pay- ing any street or part of a street, un- lleu the owners of the property on ~OMAHA TUF DAY, JULY .4, 1882 = such street petition for the paving, In our opinion this is contrary both to the letter and spirit of the law. The amended charaer requires the board of public works to propose or design public- improvements, such as paving, curbing and bridging, and the mayor and council are empowered to contract for such improvements. No limit being placed upon that power, it is discrotionary with the mayor and council. Another section of the char- tor makes it the duty of the mayor and council to pave any street whenever a majority of the proper ty owners there on ask for such improvement, Tn other words the mayorand council can eatablish paving districts and contract for paving such streets as in thewr judgment need paving the most. In cxercising this power the mayor and council are liable ts omit s-me thoroughfare that would in the judament of the owners of property need paving, Hence the law has made it the duty of the mayor and council to carry out the wish of own- ers of property on such thoroughfare, This is the common sense construction of the law, and it adopted by the mayor and council we have no doubt it will be sustained by the courts. To say that wo must remain without pavements until a majority of the owners on each street petition for it would simply mean that we should have no paavements in Omaha for many years to come, or if we do have any paving, it will be con- fined to a few blocks here and there, without connection and practically useless, AccorpiNg to Councilman Baker, Tue Bee is one of the most monstrous monopolies in Omaha by reason of its large circulation, This is, indeed, a dangerous monopoly: but it is a monopoly which is entirely under the control of its patrons, T Mr. Baker can induce himself and the other sub- scribers of Tur BEE to stop reading that terrible sheet, and become sub- scribers of the Republican and Herald, the monopoly which TaE BEE now en- joys will be at an end. Tue Omaha National is still clip- ping coupons from the Douglas county court house bonds, while the $125,000 on which the tax payers of this county are paying interest remains at the dis- posal of the same bank, If the county commissioners had invested the surplus court house funds in government bonds we should at least save from $4,000 to $5,000 a year, and that amount is certainly worth saving. The Graln Crops. The Cincinnati Price Current pub- lishes the following information about the crop outlook: The largest crop of wheat the country every produced was in 1880, which was estimated by the department of agriculture at 408,549, 868 bushels on 67,956,717 acres; the preceding year, according to the cen- sus returns, the crop was 459 475,505 bushels. In 1881 the acreage was only slightly less ther in 1880, but the yield was cut down to 380,280,090 bushels. Last year, the wheat, upon threshing, turned out a much smaller yield per acre than had been estima- ted, but the preceding year the yield per acre was genorally much above the estimates, So far as we have any re- ports of tests upon threshing, theyield this year is better than had been ex- pected, and, as there is some increase in the acreage, there is little doubt that the crop will reach 500,000,000 bushels, and it way exceed this amount. That this is not an excessive estimate is shown by the following de- tailed estimate of the principal wheat- producing states, each of which pro- duce 10,000,000 bushels or over, made by competent authority in neatly ey- ery instance: Bushels. New York. 12,000,000 Pennsylvanis A Ohio ... Michigan. TIndiana. Illinois. ... ‘Wisconsin . 45,000,000 15,000,000 10,000,000 10,000,000 10,000,000 15,000,000 5,000,000 Total. . The Effect of Rallroad Discrimination Cloveland Leader. A resolution passed by the Tanners' association of Cincinnati recommends suspension of production for i The immediate cause of thi found in the high prices of raw mate- rial and the low prices of finished goods. Itis said that the finished product has not been so low in fifteen year as now. Under such circum- stances the proprietors find it impos- sible to operate the tanperies with profit, and, until the conditions im- prove, they will be run at only a frac- tion of their full capacity. These tanneries give employment to about eleven hundred men, and last year turned out ducts valued at five millions of dollars, The employing tanners complain that the Louisville & Nashvillo railroad company imposes exorbitant rates for the trans- portation ot bark, and charge that the company makes a dis. crimination agalust Cincinnati and in favor of Louisville, This is doubtlees true, and shows the power yielded by the corporations in build ing up the business of one locality at the expense of another. This sort of thing will continue to be done until national legislation places the whole railway system of the country under wholesome restraint. This, however, will never happen until men are sent to congress who appreciate the situa- tion, and have enough independence to do their whole duty. For the past wo years or more Mr Reagan,of Tex- as, and others have been endeavoring to get congress to pass an act regu- 000 | convention. 000 | things are managed. lating commerce between the states, but without avail. Several bills hav- ing this object in view have been in- troduced in the present congr.ss, but the day of the passage of any one of them appears to be still far of. No wonder that the people cry out against monopolies, and charge that the rail- road barons are the owners of the na- tional legislature, VOICE OF STATE PRESS. Got His Foot In, Woast Point Progress.

Query— Will this happy family dine at the public table? The votes will decide. Pledge Your Candidates. York Tribune. We believe with our alliance friends that there should be legislation upon the monopoly question; that the prin- ciple of mouopoly is wrong and is detriment to the mass of the people— in fact it is detriment to all who are ot directly interested in the monopo- lies thomselves. All the laboring classes are opposed to them; almost all the west i of the same opinion, and de- mands offour legislators that they shall stand quare against monopolists, and we, the voters for whom the laws are made, should demand of every man, if necessary, that he should pledge himself to support the anti-monopoly sentiment if elected to office. The Farmers Must Act. Nebraska Signal, As has always been the case, and as it always will be until legislative con- trol prevents, the railroads announce an advance of five cents pounds for grain carried from Mis- souri river points to Chicago after August 1st. Well may the farmer ask what hopeful prospect there is in a good crop when, as soon as it is ready for market, the charge for trans- portation is made to cover every penny of margin between the actual cost of production snd the price in the Chi- cago market. We are glad, however, if this advance must come, that it is to take placs before the time of hold- ing the conventions. Its effect will be marked in those conventions, or we are much mistaken in the spirit of Nebraska's voters, Make a Clean Job, David City Republican, The state anti-monopoly convention was overwhelmingly agamst organiz- ing a distinct political party.

The vuty of the Hour. Clay County Journal, The political situation this fall in Nebraska is rather peculiar and will require very careful handling or the | #c00. republican party may find that ma- chine politics and organized monopo- lies are not just the things to control a party with at this age of indepen- dent voting, There is one interest to be looked after in this country and 01ly one, and that is the agricultural interest, for we have no general inter- ests in the state that are not derived trom, and depend directly un the pro diction of the sal. If thit daterest is injured or destroyed by monopolies of any kind, or neglected by legislators and politi- cal economists, the people have aright to complain and to take such legiti- mate action as will restore that inter- est to it proper place. From all that we can learn the vote of Nebraska, in- terested in agricultural pursuits in all its various branches (and that includes nearly all of them), will look pretty closely after their interest this fall, so far as they are in any way connected with the parties of the state. and will inquire pretty thoroughly into the an- tecodents of every man that offers himself for their votes, This is no doubt right, voters should be free from all machines and independent in their sovereign rights, voting for prin- ciples and a system of local govern- ment that the best interests of the people demand. These things can best be secured by organized efforts, therefore voters should ally them- selves with party orgenization and act in harmony for the general good and see that they are not lead around by the nose by corporation attorneys or wachine politicians, per 100 | °% BAR GAINS, b LOTS Houses, Farms, Lands.
