CROUNSE AND PRO-RATA A wanton assault was made upon Judge Crounse by the official organ of the Union Pacific railroad concerning hia record in congress in the so called pro-rata bill. The Union Paclfic or. gan attempts to create prejudice agaiast Mr, Crounse on the line of the Union Pacific, by representing that this bill was an iniquitons measure, calculated to cripplo the growth of the Platte Valley, and injuriously affect the people of this section. We had taken it for granted that the pro.rata bugbear had long since been used up as political dynamite, but since the Republican has seen fit to drag ad- | it into the present campaign, we propose to meet that issue squarely, and axpose the utter want of sincerity and decency on the part of the Union Pacific organ. Let us call attention, &p-illa.-“lht‘o’ Convention. republican electors of the state of N el o hereby called to- bend dele- gntes from the several counties to meet in wtate convention at Omaha on Wedneaday, September 20th, A, ., 1853, at 7 o'lock ‘m., for the purpose of placing in nomi.

Jamrs W, Dawes, Chairman, JonN STEEN, Becnhrg. TLancoLy, Neb, y 6, 1882, CouxscitMaN DuNmAM admits pri- -vately that the interests of the city would be best served by publication of its official business in Tne Bek, which by all odds is the cheapest medium, in view of its circulation, but Council- man Dunham talks one thing and votes another. TrEASURER Buck has notified prop- erty owners on Tenth street, through the Republican, to pay their special grading tax, This notice is supposed to reach at least a majority of the tax-payers, but we venture to say, with the exception of the U, P. road, there are not five tax-payers on the street who have seen the notice. AcriNg president of the council, Herman, says the councll has got into a hot box with the printing contract. Now there is no printing contract, be- cause the contract signed by the mayor was not approved by the coun- cil. Every contract states on its face that it is void unless approved by the council. If there is any hot box the blame must be on the committee that imposed on the council by misrepre- senting the facts and figures, Mr, Herman has allowed himself to be worked up in this matter by parties who were from the outset determined to put up & job, and if he wowd di- vest himself of all prejudice in his rulings he would find a way out of his hot box very soon. Mz, TroMan B city treasurer, has published the annual statement of the condition of finances of the city of Omaha, which the charter requires published each year, but so far as the people of Omaha are concerned the docament still remains unpublished. The design ot the law is that the widest publicity should be given to this statement, so that the tax-payers shall know just what the income and expenses of the city have been during the year. But Mr, Buck has seen fit to publish the same in a paper that reaches loss than five hun. dred people in the city of Omaha Technically the law has been'complied with, but practically it has been eva- ded for mere spite-work, to gratify the spleen of parties who desire to punish Tux Bre for exercising its true independence as & newspaper in deal- ing with public men and mvasures, The duty of publication is really upon the Mayor and Council. The Council have not instructed Mr. Buck to ad- vertise in a readerless uewspaper, and, if Mr, Boyd has done so, he is not serving the interests of the paople by depriving them of the information which the law intended they should Jave. 8(shut oft the _ | Missourt from all through traffic, both at the outset, that the Union Paclfic railroad, by its charter of 1862, was located “‘from a point on the 100th meridian of longitude, between the south margin of the valley of the Re- publican river and the north margin of the valley of the Platte river, in the territory of Nebraska, to the west- ern boundary of Nevada territory, there to meet and connect with the line of the Central Pacific railroad company of California,"” That part of the Union Pacific from Omaha to the 100th meridian was to be known as the Towa branch of the Union Pacific, while the road from Leavenworth and Atchison was the Central branch, and the Stoux City and Pacific and the Kansas Pa- cific were other branches supposed to connect at the 100th meridian. By the fifteenth section of the charter of 1862 other railroad companies already incorporated were to have equal rights and privileges in connecting with the Union Paclfic and ita branches. The design of the Pa- cifio railroad charter was undoubtedly that these branches should enjoy equal facilitios with the main line for through traffic at the junction with the main line. By the act of 1864, section 18, the Burlington & Missouri were authorized to construct a railrond from the mouth of the Platte river to the 100th meridian, 8o as to connect with the main line of the Union Pa- cific. After that road was constructed to a connection at Kearney, the Union Pacific established an ar- bitrary tariff that completely Burlington & freight and passenger. The passen- gor and freight rates from Kearney west to Cheyenne, Ogden and San Francisco were fixed as high as the the rates from Omaha and the rate frout Buu Francisvo and points this slde of San Francisco to Kearney were made as high ay from San Fran- cisco to Omaha, Thus the Burlington road was practically deprived of all advantages of connecting with the Union Pacific, because they were com- pelled to carry west-bound through passengers and freight to Kearney virtually for nothing, over their own road. The manifest injustice and reckless disregard of the letter and spirit of the charter wust be apparent to every unprejudiced mind, So pal- pable was this attempt to monopolize the entire traflic, by wanton diserimi- nation against the Burlington & Mis- souri and direotly also against the sec- tion through which it passed, that the people south of the Platte, almost en masse petitioned congress to enact a law that would compel the Union Pacific to disconlinue its arbitrary exactions at Kearnoy, Judge Crounse was at that time the represontative of Nebraska in the lower house of congress, and it be camo his duty to present these peti- tious and introduced a bill to carry out their wish, As a represontative of, the whole state he could do no less without being recreant to his trust. In fact, congress had already enacted a law, before Mr, Orounse became a member to compel the Un- ion Pacific to pro-rate with the Kan- sas Pacific and Denver Pacific roads at Oheyenne, It was mainly the fear that the bulk of this traflic would be diverted by way of Kansas City, that induced Omaba merchants and people on the line of the Union Pa- cifio to make common cause with the Union Pacific against prorata. Upon this string the cunning managers of the Union Pacific played during the entire controversy, and they never tired of boasting how they were pro- tecting Omaha and the North Platte against Kansas and Missouri, How is it now about that diversion of trade to Kansas City. How has it been since Jay Gould mixed nine quarts of Kansas Pacific water into one quart of the Union Pacific milk, by consolidat- ing tho Kansas Pacific and the Union Pacific roads. We hear no more about the outrage of giving Kansas City equal facilities snd through rates from Omaha, On the contrary, the bulk of through traffic is being constantly diverted from Omaha, but the Union Pacific orgavs remain dumb, and Omaha merchants are no longer idiotic enough to have any tremble and fear of the pro-rate bugbear, Judge Orounse aud his course in the premises cannot be justly assailed by sny candid man, and tho less Mr, Valentine's clerk has to say concern- ing prorata and Orounse, the more effoctive he will be in bolstering Valentine for a third term. INSOLENCE REBUKED. The methods by which Valentine is trying to foroe a renomination for himself for a third term exemplify in striking manner the arrogance and insolence of office. From the outset Valentine has sought to ride rough shod ever the popular will by pro- claiming far and wide that nobody dared to oppose. him as a candi- date. The third district was express- ly cut out for Valentine, and the peo- ple therein were notified that all op- position was useless. Valentine's hencemen in every petit of- ce have cracked their whips over the heads of editors who were more or less dependent upon public patronage and have literally driven them to a support of the tall basswood, They have given out also that Valentine carried the whole ad- ministration in his pocket, that the whole public patronage of Nebraska was at his disposal and Saunders and Van Wyck were powerless to help or protect anybody who opposed Valen- tine. These insolent and arrogant as- sumptions have met a fit rebuke through the following correspondence, which has just reached us. U. 8. SeNATE CHAMBER, WasHiNaTON, July 13th, 1882, Hon, Henry M. Teller, Eecretary Interior: I desire to call vour attention to the following statement concerning E. L Butler, register of the United States land office at Nelighy Neb. Two newspapers, the drgus and the News, both Republican, are srinted at Al- bion, Neb. Both papers had official advertising from said land office. Suddenly they were discontinued in the Argus, when Mr. Brainard, on behalf of that pa- per, desired to know the reason why, when Mr. Butler sent the following: NuLiai, Neb., June 20, 1882, A. D, Bralnard, Fsq.: Sin—In reply to your letter of the 16th inst., inquiring *Why I do not favor you with any more land office mnoticest” I would simply say that for fifteen years I have been a strong friend of E. K. Valen- tine, have been and am now & supporter of his, believing him worthy and well quali- fied; therefore, a friend to him is a friend to me, The “News” is friendly, the “‘Ar- " is the reverre, hence my late action mhu interest of Mr. Valentine, Respectfully, E. L. BurLer, Mr. Butler has a right to his preference among the candidates for congress in that district, and to exer- ciso his personal influence, but he has no right to use that portion of the government under his direction to coerce individuals or control nominat- ing conventions. think you will agree with me that such wanton exercise of power should be sternly rebuked, as it would proba- bly be rebuked by the people at the ballot box, May I trouble you for an early an- swer, confidently presuming that you will censure the course of this official, and thereby admonish others, ahould they follow his example. Yours respeatfully, C. H. VAN Wyck, DEPARTMPNT OF THE INTERIOR, WASRINGTON, D. C., Juy 18, 1882, } Hop. C. H. Van Wyck, United States Senate, DEAR Sir—I have your letter of the 13th inst. in which you refer to a letter of Mr. E. L. Butler, register of the United States land oftice at Ne- ligh, Nebraska, to Mr, A. D. Bran- ard, who is the publisher of a news- per, that he could not publish in gl.l paper the notice required by law before entry of land, because he (the ublisher) was an enemy of the mem- r of congress from that state. You say ‘‘Mr. Butler has a right to his preferences among the candidates for congress in that district, and to exer- cise his personal influence; but he has no right to use that portion of the government under his direction to coerce individuals or control nomina- ting conventions, I think you will agree with me, that such wanton ex- ercise of power should be sternly re- buked.” T agree with you that Mr, Batler has no right to discriminate between the newspaper friends or op- ponents of the honorable member of congress from that state, in dispens- ing the patronage of his office, and I will call the attention of the commis- sioner of the general land office to the case, and suggest that he call Mr, Butler's attention to my views on this subject, and I trust the offense will not be repeated. Very respectfully, H M Teu.eg, PuaiLisu pays better than piety in this country and in this enlightened age, The receipts at the box office of Madison Square Garden after the late pummeling match of Sullivan and Wilson footed up $19,000. After paying 8360 for use of the garden and other incidental expenses, over $18,000 was left to be divided be- tween the pugilists, Of this Wilson bagged, 5,700 as his share, and that for about twenty minutes’ work, Tho total receipts are probably the largest amount ever taken in for so short a show, and give pugilism the belt as a money attraction, Wo venture to eay that there is not a preacher or ex- horter in these United States who can earn one-halt of that sum fn any wonth of Sundays, And now Wilson has issued a challenge to fight Sulli- van or any other man in the United States for $2,000 or §5,000 a side, & real stand-up and knock-down fist tight without gloves, uccording to the rules of the London prize ring made and provided for bruisers, e Tug Lincoln Journal pricks the gas bubble, which Peter Schwenck has blown about the filling out of that bogus cousus blank, very effoctively, when it calls attention to the absurd- ity of Poter's story. Peter claims that the blank, as filled out, was a base imitation of his (Peter's) elegant handwriting, but the Jourial inclines to the opinion that if anybody else than Peter has committed the forgery he would be likely to imitate the handwriting of Alexander, who was supposed to be the author and whose name was signed to the document. Poter has oaught himself in a huge lie in trying to explsin away his own handwriting on the blank. Val's man Friday will have to get another certifi- cate of character from somebody. Dexver expects to have direct con- nection with Salt Lake by the Rio Grande before the snow flies, It is generally believed that the Burlington line will eventually consolidate her pool earnings with the Rio Grande and make connection with the Central Pacific at Salt Lake or Ogden, that will give Omaha two rival lines to the Pacific coast. While the rivalry may in » measure be neutralized by pool- ing botween the U. P. and B, & M., there is no doubt that shippers at the terminal points will receive much better treatment than they now get. Republican Pitfalls. New York Spec al to Chicago Times, The failure of the scheme to unify the Republican party in Pennsylvania is making a profound impression upon the leaders of the party in this state, who are anxiously casting about for the ways and means of preventing a split in the approaching gubernatorial state convention as a consequence of the now threatening renewal of the chronic fight between the atalwarts and half-breeds. If the plan of con- ciliation proposed by the Pennsylvania independents had been accepted by Cameron and his followers, the process of restoring union to the Am-ty in New York, it is be- lieved by such persons as Judge Robertson, would have been im- mensely simplified. They are per- suaded a precedent would have been established which no republican of prominence would dare to have ignored, inasmuch as that precedent established the principle of referring the whole trouble to the people them- selves outside of the office-holders’ or office-seekers’ care. As it is, the party, as In the Keystone state, is all at sea as regards the future. It tsa prospect that exactly suits the de- mocracy, who hail every sign and symptom of division in the enemy’s camp as an indication of his coming defeat. It is no secret that, so far as the president is concerned, he is not anxiows to consolidate his party in New York, and with that motive he has all along been exceedingly cautious about disturbing the status quo of the half-breed office-holders. This very caution, however, is beginning to make his stalwart supporters very restive, and if “‘it is to be persisted in” as one of them remarxed to-day, ‘‘Mr. Arthur may find himself falling between two stools before he is aware of it.” If the fight is to be kept up in Pennsyl- vania, the work of the administration in dealing with these discordant ele- ments in this state will meet with fresh if not insurmountable discour- agements. If the parly cannot be united this fall, in all human proba- bility, it will have to accept defeat in November, and defeat in November will not contribute anything to fortify the president’s position for 1884, Aside from all this, there is serious trouble from another quarter. The ‘‘anti-monopoly” people, who claim that they can poll twenty-five thousand votes in zgiu state, assert that the republicans have made a fatal mistake in permitting Roscoe Conk- ling to come forward in the courts as the champion of the railroad corpora- tions against the merchants .and the striking freight-handlers. Admitted that he is only acting asa lawyer, they contend that at a time like this a po- Iitical leader who has any aspirations for the tuture cannot afford to take a position like that; and this is accom- panied by a prediction that if Mr, Conkliug is to boss the state conven- tion any ticket it may nominate will be beaten as soon as it is put in the field, TRIUMPHANT “TUG.” The Lion of the Hour Recelyes an Ovation at “Champlon’s Rest ” Philadelphia Press. A shout arose lsst night at a quar- ter before 10 o’clockfin the vicinity of the Champion's rest, Ridge ayenue and Wood street. The hip-hip-hur- rah was taken up and re-echoed in the saloon, Walking briskly down the street came Arthur Chambers and the hero of the day, ‘“Tug” Wilson, the ‘“foxy” English fighter. Ohambers’ saloon was almost as crowded as it was on Monday night when dispatches of the conflict between Wilson and Sullivan were reeeived. The crowd in the bar room surged around the Ridgoavonue entrance, The pianist struck up the chords of ‘‘See, the Conquering Hero Comes,” the Vini- tean doors swung apart, and ‘‘Tug” and Chambers entered the apartment. The din was confusing. The men pushed aund struggled around the prize-fighter and his second like an aager swarm of starving flies about a sugar-plum, *‘Op, the ‘‘See the darling?” *‘Tug, the brave boy!" *“‘Hurrah for the plucky little man'" were the cries ringing through the room., “Put him on the coun- ter!” “Hold Lim up, let us see him,” those in the background yelled vooif- erously. Wilson aud Chambers forced their way through the mob; Cham- bers sucoseded tn getting behind the| - counter, where, divesting himself of his coat, proceeded coolly to look over telegrams and notes handed him by his wife. Wilson was caught in front of the counter by & pumber of pereonal acquaintences, where he stood vntl late at night imbibing cider and beer in vast l\ll&l-ll“iel, which was offered up to the shrine of his greatness by a host of ardent admirers, Struggling every now and then to thrust back the crowd |, surging about his elbows, he looked a perfect picture of good-fellowship | and contentment. His round, red face was illuminated with a realizing § sense of his prowess, He smiled at m'uriylhiug, jost and compliment, and displayed his firm, white teeth. He wore his straw hat perched on the back of his head, and a yellow silk handkerchief twisted around his neck. There was not a scratch on his face or hands, He looked in perfect condi- dition, *No, I aren’t much of a talker,” ho said with & right jolly laugh. “I'u all action, What did I think of Sul- livan! Why, he's & perfect gentleman, beauty!”" | 3000 he is. We got along firal-class. When 1 left him he says to me, ‘Tug, you're a gentleman. “Yll put a thousand dollars on you any time you want to ficht anybody else. You've got the pluck and muscle.” Do you know,” continued Wilson with great candor, ‘I like to fight gentlomen like Sulli- van. Nothing low about 'im. We met as friends and friends we parted.” This sentiment was recelved with a cheer of approval by those gathered about the speaker. “I went in to win, and I think as I did. I stood the four rounds, and a long a8 you ask me—though I'm no .| onthe boast—I could have stoo twenty more rounds of the same sort If SBullivan wanted me to fight to night I'm ready for 'im. I'm just as fresh and spry now as I ever was. I've challenged Sullivan for £5,000 in a fight without glover. I'll meet ’im with naked fists, and I'll meet any man in the world on the same condi- tions, or in any other way that may be decided upon. I h'ain’t got any engagements for the present. As yet Sullivan hasn’t took up my chal- lenge, I'm a-goin’ to stay in Phila- delphia now with my friend Cham- bers. Philadelphia is what I call a square city.” *‘Why did you fight so savagely the first round?” was n%(ed. ‘I wanted to test Sullivan’s power. His blows came out like sledge-ham- mers, and then at the second round I adopted the ‘drop’ game, and kept it up. Lor’ bless you, Sullivan’s a hit- ter. What did I do co-day? Why, I had a good time after my work. I drove about New York in an open carriage, and was received with cheers. Lor', as they like a brave man in New York.” A New Refrigerator Car, 64, Louis Globe-Democrat, The arrival in this city yesterday of a load of fresh fish, brought through from Boston by a refrigerator car, demonstrated the success of a new and very important experiment. About six days were consumed by the trip, over the New York & New En- gland, Pennsylvania, Panhandle and ‘Vandalia lines. It is very difficult to get fish inland in good shape, and it is believed the feat was never accom- plished before of bringing a quantiiy 8o far, absolutely fresh and in good condition, save when packed in ice chests These fish were not packed in ico and salt, the usual way, but simply set in boxes on the floor of the car, whose temperature was kept through- out the journey at from 33 to 45 de- | #7 grees. The car has been recently in- vented. Broken ice and salt are packed in tanks at each end, so ar- ranged that the “pickle,” or brine, is held in a third tank at the bottom to utilize its low temperature until it rises high enough to be removed by a siphon. Around the ice tanks, and through them by means of pipes, a free circulation of pure air is secured. The interior of the car is perfectly air tight. The air does not come in con- tact with the ice, but only with the cold iron of the tanks which hold it, | g and the natural rising of heated and sinking of chilled air brings every particle in the car against the cold sur- faces. The advantages of this car are claimed to be the utilization of the full value of the ice and salt, the pro- duction of alower temperature than other refrigerator cars produce, and the fact that only dry air comes in % contact with the contents, Robert H. Waters, the president of the com- pany, who is in town, is trying to pave the way for the use of these cars in both directions—to as well as from the west. This first car of the series came through in charge of F. C. Iills, of Boston, an old newspaper reporter. AsK your dragg ist for Redding’s Inssian Salye, Keep it in the house ia case of acci- dents.
