Tue republicans of this, the First district, will meet in convention at Nebraska City to nomnate a candidate for congress five weeks from this day. Up to date no steps have been taken toward fixing the day of primaries or calling the convention, Mr, Isaac 8. Hascall is chairman of the Douglas county central committee and he soems disposed to keep the call back to the last minute. Noarly every other county in the district has taken preliminary steps by convening the committees and calling the can- ventions, Inasmuch as the coming convention will also be called on to name delegatos for the state conven- tion it is high time that ihe commit- tee be called together. It takes at least one week to notify members in every precinct of the county, and the voters ought to have from twenty to thirty days notice for| the primaries, But we presume Doug- las county republicans will have to possess their souls in patience and await the pleasure of Mr, Isaac 8, Hascall, i TR Tax smart Aleck that edits the Re- publican, in the absence of Mr, Brooks, has struck another mare's nest.

If the smart Aleck of the Republican had taken the trouble to read the full text of that blood and thunder telegram he would have dis- covered that he had only struck an advertisement concocted by a blood- thirsty grocer on Farnam streot, who fires his artillery at the pyramids six thousand miles away, To avoid the possible falal effects which such sky rocket advertising might have on the weak minded and rattle-brained we have forbidden, in the future, the insertion of such de- ©oy advertising at any price, THE DAILY BEE--OMAHA M'HU{TSDAY, AUGUST 8, THE VETO OVERRIDDEN. The passage of the river and harbor bill by both houses of congress over the president's veto marks the con- clusion of a gigantic steal which has boon denouneed from the outset by every leading journal of the country. President Arthur, in his message, pointed out clearly and concisely the grave objections which forced the ex- ecutive to refuse his signature to the measure,. A large number of the items of appropriation met with general approval because they were in the line of honest and economical internal improvement. Such were the Mississippi and Mis- souri appropriations, and those for dredging and improving the great har- bors on the sea coast. But of the en- tire nineteen millions donated by the bill more than one half were intended to distribute the treasury surplus where it could neither further the in- torosts of commerco or increase the facilities for internal transportation. Streams which for half the year are dry, and during the other half mere trout brooks were classed as rivers de- manding extensive improve- ments and frog ponds and creeks which could never be made available for public use came in for a large share of the funds in the nation's strong box as great rivers which aid in transporting the agricul- tural wealth of the west to the sea board. The responsibility for the passage of the measure must be borne impartially by both parties. The vote upon the original adoption of the measure was fairly divided among re- publicans and democrats, The south- ern senators and representatives who since the war have been constantly “in favor of the old flag and an appropriation” were a unit for any measure which would tap the national treasury for the ben- efit of the south. Scores of members of congress who belived the river and harbor bill to be a steal, voted for it to saveitems in which their constitu- ents had a personal interest, Two- thirds of both senators and congress- men lacked the courage to oppose a measuro which is denounced by the universal sense of the country asa fraud and swindle engineered through congress to assist the political chances of its promoters. There is one lesson which is taught by this successful raid on the treasury which ought to come home to every voter, and that it is the con- stant incentive which a large surplus revenuo offers to congressional job- bery. It is safe to say that no con- gress would dare to vote away nine- toen millions of dollars collected by taxation from the people if the treas- ury had not b¥ent more than equal to the most extravagant demands of the national legislature. An unadjusted tariff and exhorbitant war internal revenve taxes are drawing from the producers of this nation one hundred and fifty millions annually more than 1s suflicient to maintain the gsvernment and meet the requirements of our interest bearing debt. The cries of the people for re- duced taxation have been met by con- gress with a long and strong pull upon the treasury, and a cold indiffer- ence to the demand for tariff and internal revenue revision, Mr. Glad- stone asserted some months ago thau no other nation but this would bear with patience the tax impositions placed upon it, It isa serious ques- tion whether patience has not ceased to be a virtue, and nothing will bring voters to a more realizing sense of the necessity for a reduction of their bur- den than such a spectacle as that afforded by the extravagance and cowardice of the present congress in its dealings with the treasury surplus, — Jay HusseLr is receiving a great deal of unmerited abuse which should fall on other shoulders if deserved at all. Mr, Hubbell is acknowledged to be above the average of average poli- ticians, or even congressmen, He is a graduate of the University of Michigan, clean handed, with brains, education and a good reeord. Mr, Hubbell's crime consists in being chairman of the congressional com- mittee, which thinks that officehold- ers ought to be willing to contribute toward the expenses of the party from which they reap pecuniary benefits, There are a great many people, not politicians, who agree with them. Ir the coming elections for congress succeed in scraping off a few barnacles from her keel the ship of state may give a better account of herself next year, A xorice published elsewhero in our columns containg the announce ment of the reopening of the State university at Lincoln, on September 12th, with a full corps of professors and instructors, With no personal knowledge of the new incumbents of the chairs vacated by Professors Church, Woodberry and Emerson, Tue Bee hos every reason to bolieve that the choice of the regents has fal- len on competent and efficient men who will give satiafaction in their new positions and aid in restoring public confidence to the institution, There is overy disposition on the part; of the people of Nebraska to sus- tain what is intended to be the head of her educational system. The fail- ures of the pust have resulted from a refusal on the part of its management to recognize the spirit of that system as unsectarian and progrescive, In the recent changes there is strong rea- son for the belief that anew era is about to dawn for the state university, and that no eftort will be spared to place it on a par with sister institu- tions in other parts of the country. THE FARMER'S FRIEND. Congressman Valentine is now pos- ing before the people of Nebraska as the farmer's friend. He has been chairman of the committee on agricul- ture for about eight months and he has laid the country and the farmers under everlasting obligations in caus- ing congress to vote a large increase of taxes for the bureau of agriculture. The appropriations for gathering crop atatistics have been raised from ten thousand dollars to eighty thousand dollars, and a corresponding in- crease was made through Val- entine in the appropriations for experiments in raising buttonhole bouquets in the botanical gardens and dissecting potato bugs. As the result of Mr. Valentine's la- bors as the friend of the farmer the commissioner of agriculture has been able to transplant several political barnacles that have been hanging around Washington to Europe, where they will vegetate at firat class hotels in high style at Uncle Sam’s expense. The seventy thousand dollars squan- dered on these barnacles will of course be imposed in taxes on farmers, and they should thank their friend Valen- tine for this blessing in disguise. Os- tensibly the department of agriculture was created and is maintained for the collection and diffusion of practical information on subjects connected with agriculture. As a matter of fact the main business of this department is to give employment to rank political woeds that grow so profusely around the national capital, and to supply congressmen with rare and costly bouquets for their wives and mis. tresses, There is also a garden sauce bureau that invests and squanders thousands of dollars of the people's money in the purchase of worthless flower and garden seeds, which are placod at the disposal of congressmen who want to distribute taffy among their constituents at Uncle Sam'’s ex- pense, Incidentally the agricultural depart- ment affords a lucrative position for a bug gatherer, who spends his leisure hours in dissecting grasshoppers, po- tato bugs and other insects. The late Mr. Leduc planted a quarter of a million of the farmers’ money in cultivating tea plants and silk worms. * Mr, Valentine, the farmer's friend, has made a desperate effort to induco congress to raise the salary of the overworked commissioner of agri- cultural from §3,000 to §8,000 a year, but the bill which he championed still hangs fire. For all these efforts Val- entine now comes to the front as the farmer’s friend, and his admirers ask that he be returned for a third term. But Nebraska farmers take little stock in fancy agriculture. They do not relish paying taxes for magnificent bouquets to vrnament the persons and tables of congressmen. They have never asked Valentine to raise a purse of §70,000 for gathering statistics in Europe through political seedlings that do not know a cabbage head from a pumpkin, Where was Mr, Valentine as the friend of the farmer in matters of legislation? How did he vote on pro- posals to reduce taxes and lift the bur- dens from the shoulders of the pro- ducers! Valentine has been in con- gress three years and a half, and in all that time he never introduced a single bill to relieve the farmers from any burden. As representative from Ne- braska, he knows that millions of acres of railroad lands in this state are ex- empted from taxes, but he has never lifted his finger to right this great wrong, As former registrar of a land oflice, Valentine knew that Peter Schwenck and other land office rogues had made it a practice to impoge on homestead- ers, but this ‘““farmer's friend” has done all he could to cover up the frauds and whitewash the rogues, Take the record from the day he entered congress until now and nearly every vote he has given has been in vhe interest of corporate monopolies, jobbery and reckless expenditure, At all times the railway monopolies have looked to him as a staunch supporter, but now, just before the election, he is passing ae a friend of the farmers, Well might our producers exclaim, from all such friends good Lord de- liver us, T —— Postottice Changes, Postoflice changes in Nebraska during the week ending July 15, 1882, furnished by William Van Vleck of the postoflice department, Established— Celia,* Holt County, Goo.

The Country People Barred Out of the Primaries by Short Notice The Trick Condemned by All and New Primaries Called For August 10, Correspondence of The Bee. Nortr Pratre, Auguse 2, 1872, — There will be a double-header from Lincoln county again this fall. Last Tuesday the republican county central committee met to call the primaries and county convention. Mr. Me- Connell, the U. P. master mechanic was there with enough railroad employes to control the action of the committee, A call was brought in with dates already filled out for primaries to be held July 29, from 6 to 7 p. m. Mr. Thomas Patterson moved to change the time of holding the primaries to August 19th which was voted down. He then moved to make 1t August 12th which was voted down. He then moved to change the hours of holding the primaries from 3 to 4 p. m,, instead of 6 to 7 p. m. in North Platte precinct, as this precinct is 48 miles north and south, and many of the voters lived from 20 to 30 miles from the voting place. This was also rejected. The time fixed enabled the brass-collared brigade to be out in full force, and barred the people outside of the town from taking part in the pri- maries, since they had no opporbuni&y to know that they were being held. The call was not published in the local papers until the very day they were held. The design, no doubt, is to fire the first gun ot the campaign for Val- entine. It is a burning disgrace to tho state that such a farce can be per- petrated or countenanced. It is a repetition of the political frauds that have been committed in Lincoln county by the railroad faction time and again. In order to get an honest and untrammeled expression cf the party, a call has been issued for pri- maries to be held throughout the county, on August 19, and a conven- tion will ba hefd by the delegates then elected that will send representives to Fremont and Omah: w. VISION OF THE FREMONT CON- VENTION. Fremont, Neb., August 2, To the Editor of Tue Beg: *T have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chiskens under her wings, and you would not be com- torted, Behold your house isleft unto you desolate,” Such will prdve “tae *dttimum of Valentine & Co’s. future aspirations and progress. For it is said there 18 a land beyond the Elkhorn called COuming, a land that floweth with milk and honey, and some rye whisky, and the bosses of that land eaid unto one another: ““We must again raise our chief priest, ‘Val,’ to congress and renown and of course look for the multitude to pay him the tribute, even if he per- sists 1n his evil ways,” Now some of the brethren will be- come sorcly perplexed, and they will say unto one another: ‘‘Let us hie unto Fremont wkere the wise men will sit in the temple of fate, we will make known unto them our grievances, and our lamentations will surely be i:eaded, in spite of cor- porate wealth and aggressions,” And so it will come to pass that the wise men in the temple will hearken unto their sayings, and with one accord say: “Sumli there is just cause for relief.” Let us give it unto them " “*And the fayored sons of toil will depart rejoicing, and the wise sroph- ots of Nemaha and of Seward will marvel, and with one acclamation say unto one anather,” “‘How is this? Here we had sheck- els of eilver, and sheckels of gokl to contribute in behalf of- thy U, P. & B. & M,, and none found its way into the gateway of the tenple. Thus with one hand we intended to place a penny in the urn of poverty, but with the other dragged a shilling out, And so it will come to pass; they will summon the legal lights from the land of Douglas, from the land of Lancaster, and from O!d Otoe, ynd hold a conference, and during its pro- gress question them closely and hjar- ken deeply unto their; sayings. And lo and bohold! when if' shall be lis- covered that none of the lucre croged the turbulent Platte, the prophets will wax wrathy, and they will cry in mournful strains, in silent conegrs, with one accord, ‘“Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin.” And so it came to jass that the wise men from up the Lik- horn left the temple, weeping hnd wailing, and would not be oumlu{ed‘ Combinations of Capital and Lebor The Hour, July 29, [ Woe hear a good deal in these lays that savors of envy, hatred and mglice on the rut of the poor towards the rich, of labor towards capital; and much more that is expressive of ppu- lar indignation against so-called mo- nopolies. At the same time, the strikesindicate wide-spread discontput, The immediate cause of this digon- tent, which leads thousands of to throw up the work on which theyde- pend for their daily bread, is undojbt- edly the lufi:]y-incr«ued cost of liv- ing. But the decreased purchwing power of money, although the iln'uw diate, is not the sole cause of thifre- newal of the old couflict betveen labor and capital, Of course, these revolts of Kbor against capital are a source of geat ovil, and the strikers are themslves usually the greatest sufferers. ‘hey seldom gain their objects, and [ven | when they do succeed the advantage is merely temporary. Nevertheless, while strikes are to be deprecated, they cannot be ignored. CUombina- tions have put vp railway charges and the price of everything they have touched, except poorer. But human endurance of wrongs has its limits. Labor is now unhappily arrayed against capital on a scale never before known in the United States, and the conflict may not really end until labor has secured a larger share of the profits of industry, although the strikes will terminate without refer- ence to this ultimate result. But capital stubbornly resists all encroach- ments upon its power, privileges and purse, and the struggle will therefore be a long one. The need of organization to meet organi- zation is felt, and hence, however mistakenly, strikes are resorted to, and anti-monopoly leagues are used as vehicles through which to express pop- ular protests and indignation against those who use their power and wealth to oppress and defraud the people. The true remedy, however, lies in legislation, Let nseople'u party, rep- resenting labor and all opposed to monopoly, be formed and such candi- dates for elective offices as meet their approval be nominated and elected, and the tyranny of great cor(wntionl will soon be overthrown. This, too, will be a safety-valve for the discon- tent of labor and indignation of the anti-monopolists. Of one thing we may feel certain, that if the evils so loudly complained of are not cor- rected, or at least mitigated by legis- lation, there will be great danger of this being sought through force. Re-: sort to this last would, of course, be a great calamity, and therefore it can- not be too strongly deprecated; but popular passions, when once aroused, are, as all history teaches, not easily stayed. Whenever capital is de- throned in the halls of legislation and the people are honestly represented— if that day ever comes—we may expect to see the fortunes such as those made of late years rendered more _difficult of acquisition thereafter, and those that already exist made to bear a larger share of the public burdens. There would, indeed, be danger of such taxation swelling in confiscation. We may be sure, too, that the powerof individuals and corporations to combine for pur- poses inconsistent with the ‘public in- tereat would be jealously curbed and regulated, thus making railway and people instead of their masters, as they practically are now, and prevent- ing those unholy combinations or cliques to ‘‘corner” the necessaries of life and make havoc in other ways with the welfare of the nation and other people’s money, in order to add to their own plethoric hoards. The popular protest against mon- opoly, whetherpractised by individuals or corporations or, as is generally the case, by combinations of both, if not loud is deep. It is inspired by a sense of injustice suffered and a de- sire that justice shall bedone ‘‘though the heavens fall.” There are times and cases in which public opinion is liable to become more omnipotent than law, and when it does so in this country—where universal suffrage in the true palladium of our liberties— the popular sentiment will soon be likely to orystdiize itself into law, far sooner, indeed, than in any other country in the world; and although we are a law-abiding and long-suffering people, the time may not be far oft —if the abuse of wealth and power is allowed to go on unchecked—when patient endurance of wrong will be no longer considered a virtue, but a re- proach.
