B RO!WA}'EH: Editor. UAMPAION skirmishing has begun, and the few guns already fired have not been double shotted. This is the farmer’s year, and the apeculators on short crops will have both eyes draped in mourning when the harvests are gathered. Nenraska demoorats are taking the cue from their party in Ohio, where aatraight prohibition ticket is to be run, which the democracy hope will secure 8,000 votes usually cast for republican candidates. J. Sterling Morton's campaign plan in Nebraska is not original. Georee E. SPENCER can now re- turn is safety to Washington. The prosecution of the star route thieves is over and the disgraceful spectacle of an officer of the United States dodging around the country in order to escape telling what he knows of bribery and theft is no longer necessary in the intcrests of 8. W, Dorsey. Uxper the provisions of the na- tional banking law passed by the last congress, the secretary of the treasury was directed to receive deposits of gold coin in sums of not less than §20, and {to issue certificates therefor. THE ANTI-MONOPOLY CALL. The executive committees of the Farmers' Alliance and Anti-monopoly league have issued a call for an auti- monopoly state convention to be held at Hastings on the 27th of September, The call contemplates the nomination of an anti-monopoly state ticket that will command the support not only of members of the Alliance but of met- chants, mechanics, laborers and pro- fessional men who desire to redeom the state from the domination ot cor. porate monopolies. The avowed aim of the Farmers' Alliance, as expreesed in the recent address of its officers, has been to maintain a non-partiz They urged mombers of the e part in the primary elections and nominating con- position, Alliance to take an act ventions of their respective parties, to secure the endorsement of their prin- ciples and nomination of candidates free from corporate control. This, we take it, is still their aim, If the ex- isting parties endorse anti-monopoly principles in their platformsand nomi- nate men whose past record is in accord Bome $160,000,000 in gold cortificates are now being printed and will shortly be issued from fhe treasury. The suc- | cess of the silver certificates, which enabled individuals and banks to get of a large amount of bulky coin and replaco it with, paper worth its face value and secured by a coin deposit of an equal amount, was responsible for these new editions to the national cur- rency. The tendency of gold is to accumulate in the bank vaults, The amistant treasurer at New York esti- mates that the associated banks in that city already hold some sixty mil- lions in gold coin ‘and they are all eager to exchange a large portion of the amount for the new certificates, A poper currency possesses many ad- vantages for practical use over a me- tallic currency if its value is assured by a deposit of that which has an in- trinsic value* And this is just what is done in the case of both the silver and gold certificater. A WasHiNaToN dispatch says that the ‘‘bureau of navigation has de- signed a new flag, to be hereatter known in the navy as the ‘President’s flag.” It is fourteen feet long by eleyen feet broad, the material of navy blue bunting. In the centre is the American coat-of-arms, the eagle holding in its mouth the pennant on which is inscribed “E Pluribus Unum,” and perched on a shield, grappling in one claw a bunch of ar- rows and in the other a bunch of oak leaves, Above the coat-of-arms, ar- ranged in a semicircle, are thirteen white stars, representing the thirteen original states. One of these flags will be placed on board of each United States vessel, and whenever the prosi- dent goes aboard one of those vessels the president's flag will fly from the main mast.” And what does the United States need of a royal ensign to fly fromjthe mizzen mast of his ships whenever the chief executive of the nation happens to bo on board, The idea is un-American and borrowed, like a great deal of other snobbishness which is creeping into the Washington bureau, from monarchial institutions. e—— Carree men have the best of rea- sons, for congratulation over their present season's business, and it is not at all astonishing that the eastern press are publishing dazzling acoounts of ranches and ranchmen, in the light of twenty-five cents a pound for beef and thy enormous profits reported by imaginative correspondents, Many of course of the letters written ‘‘from the ranges” and printed by railroad advertising bureaus are highly exag- gerated, but the most rellable sources of information all agree that the cat- tle growing interests of Nebraska and ‘Wyoming have never had a'better sea- son than the one which is now draw- ing to a close. A mild winter brought cattle out fat on the ranges in the spring with little loss, and high prices added greatly to the ordinarily high profits of the ranchmen. Wyoming alone expects to ship 400,000 cattle this season, employing 20,000 railroad cars to trausport the freight. How important an element in railrosd oper ation the cattle trade is, may be seon from the statement that over $3,000,- 000 in freight will be paid this year by Nebraska and Wyomiog stockimen. with these principles their platform and candidates will be endorsed and supported by anti-monopoly men of every party, class and station. If the republican party becomes the ex- ponent and champion of corporate monopoly and nominates caudidates that have nothing in common with the producing and industrial classes, the party will run the risk of general dis- organization defeat, The call for the anti-monopoly state convention as we understand it, is measure of precaution. The demo- cratic state convention will be held on the 14th, the repuklican convention on the 20th, and the last republican congressional convention on the 27th of September. The machinery of both parties 1s notoriously in the hands of the railway monopolies and the evi- dent purpose of the political managers of the railroads has been to delay the conventions and give the people no time for organized opposition. In view of this state of facts the officers of the alliance have been forced to take decisive action, In this action they simply live up to the pledges exacted from them by the state alliance, which expressly in- structed them to call a state nominat- ing convention in case of emergency In publishing the call for an inde- pendent anti-mcnopoly state conven- tion, Tk Ber has by no means aban- doned its republican principles or committed itself to a new political faith. Now, as ever, THe Bee de- sires republican supremacy in national and state affairs, and in the future, as in the past, we shall advcoate meas ures that do not clash with true re- publican principles and support candi- datos selected by the untrammeled and unbought voice of the republican party, In the future, asin tho past, we shall endeavor to purge the party of misrule and corruption from within, but when all efforts within the party fail, Tue Bex will sacrifico partisanship on the altar of patriotism, We still have abiding faith in the honesty and patriotism of the repub lican masses, and wo still urge the republican farmers, mechanica and business men who desire to emanci- pate the party from corporate domination to take an sclive part in the primary elections and conven- tions, Let every republican’discharge this duty to the party and the state, and if all our efforts are thwarted by the corrupt machinations and criminal meddling of railroad corporations, let the responsibility for the consequences be theirs. Our main object, and the main object of every good citizen, ba he “republican or democrat, must be to secure good government. If the existing parties, and especially the republican party, with its large majority,, nominate able, honest and reliablo men the objoct for which these partics were founded, and the purpose for which the Farmers' Alliance was organized, will be achieved, If yob- bers, corruptionists and ocorporatfon tools are nominated good governmont will be jeopardised, Were the people who desire honest goyernment all united there would be no danger, but the jobbers, ringsters and corporation managers always know how to divide and distract the people while they are concentrating their forces and pooling their issues, It is only as a last and desperate re sort that | the people of all parties should combine on one platform in a movement to redeem the state, and we hope that the leaders and managers of the dominant party will not force tho masses into a revolt that will have to seek redress through the movement contemplated as a last resort in the call for an independent anti-monopoly convention New York's men of wealth of late days have not been very generous in public bequosts, Stewart's will made few provisions for perpetuating his nawe 1 the memories of the poor and needy. Poter Goelet who died worth many willions left the whole of his immense property to his nephews, Old Commodore Vanderbilt, aside from & few thousands of dollars de- vised to Vanderbilt university, be- queathed his enormous property to his sons. Moses Taylor, who a fow all these Instances charitable journalists have hinted of the great benefactions which the heirs intended to bestow, but in every case the promises have failed of fulfilment. Just at present there are renewed rumors in New Ycrk that Mr. Vander- bilt is about to surpass all his prode- cessor millionaires in a serios of pub- lic gifts for the benefit of the city which has given him his wealth, He has purchased the site of the Catholic orphan asylum on Fifth avenue with the view of erecting a magnificent public gallery of pictures, which is to be splendidly endowed and is to times to the public. dollars is the sum which some fervid imagination hae given as the probable cost of this scheme of the railroad king for im- proving public taste and perpetuating his name through all posterity, It is a serious question whether the returns on a capital of ten millions of aollars locked up in marble and can- vass will pay a8 well as some other in+ open at all Ton millions of vestment for the benefit of the public, Mr. Vanderbilt'’s ten millions ~ have been wrung from the hands of toil and picked from the pocket of industry. Most of it represents lawless inter- ference with the laws of trade, reck- leas watering of stock and unrighteous extortions from patrons of the great system of railways which he controls. An art gallery will do little to coun- teract the evil effects of the methods which gained for Mr. Vanderbilt his great forture, Educating the public tasto is a poor return for picking the public pocket. SOME MCRE OF MAN'S TY- RANNY. ‘‘Equal rights under the American flag to the women of this nation,” is the high sounding declaration of a col- lection of indignant women who gath- ered on Thursday in Washington, and organized the Woman's National La- bor organization, The special in- stance of ‘‘man’s tyranny,” of which the meeting complained, was the refusal of the chicf clerk of the inte- rior department to appoint women to the clerkships made necessary by the increase of work in the pension department, The reason given for the refusal was the business and common sense one, that the applicants were not qualified to perform the duties de- manded by the position. The new clerkships rcquire rapid and accurate acccuntants, good pensmenand persons of experience and judgment. The sala- ries are based upon the possession of these qualifications. That the ladies who epplied for positions did not possess them was certainly not the fault of the government, And it is difficult to see any ‘‘tyranny” in the refusal of an employer of labor to fill his vacant places with persons who he knows are incompetent to do the work required | of them, It is unforfunate that the women who feel themselves aggrieved because the government did not feel itsolf justified in placing them on its pension rolls cannot take u practical view of the situation, No employers are more exacting than women. No housekeeper with a grain of common sense would employ a green and in- experionced girl to do the cooking for @ family at the same wages demanded and received by an old an experienced sorvant, When the government fixes tho salaries of clerks to perform cer- tain work, heads of bureaus have no right to fill the vavancies with incom- petent incumbents, Such action would be philanthropy and not busi- nesa, 1t is one of the defects of woman's character that the emotional features are developed too frequently at the expense of her judgment, Each and every one of the refused applicants at Washingion no doubt felt personally insulted because they were not con- sidered the *‘equals” of experienced clerks, whose services were in de- mand, and instead of looking at the matter in its proper light they at once organized an indignation meeting and of course denounced the action of Secretaries Teller and Lincoln as an- other outrage against the sex, and an exhibition of the ‘‘one man power, which should consign its perpetrators to etérnal infamy. Instances like the one under discussion bring out very forcibly the certain result of the de- mand made by a fow unpractical women that woman and man must be placed on the same plane, with equal chances for competing for alivelihood, The momen. the mental and physical equalify of woman is admitted, that moment ahe loses one of her greatest safoguards in the protection which 18 uow accorded her as the wdaker vessel, with man in the competition of life, instances like that ai the interior de- partment where qualifications are the ounly test for position, will teach the great mistake which she is making in attempting to unsex herself at the ex- peuse of ihose characteristics which are now her chief glory and defense, Tue great Diamond Match mon- opoly has raised its prices tionately upon every gross of matches sold, Oune hour after the senate had adjourned, without abolishing extor- the months ago died the posscssor of (match stawp tax, the company was nearly fifty willions, transmitted his | mailing its new price lists to dealers fortune entire to his family, In | throughout the country. VALENTINE'S USEFULNESS, Valentine has been a ‘‘good pro- vider” and he is the most ‘‘useful man” that Nebraska has ever sent to congress. That is the key-note of all the organs and strikers that clamor for a third term for the West Point etatesman, Now, let us see how useful our Val, has been and who has been provided for at the expense of the taxpayers, Almost the first man our Val. pro- vided for after he jrovided for him- self by drawing 81 860 back pay out of the state treasury for services hLe never rendered, was the mnotorious Sonnenshein—who was sent up the Missouri river on a benevolent mis- sion among the Indians. Scnnen- shein was Val.'s companion among the saloon bummers and a fair specimen of Val.’s idea of a deserving partisan. Next to be provided for was the ‘‘Selah family.” This was done through a fraudulent pension claim, The foundation for this fraudulent claim was laid on the fol- lowing affidavit, now on file in the pension bureau: DECLARATION, STaTE OF NEBRASKA, " Cuming County. } On this 22d day of August, 1879, per- sonally sppeared before e a clerk of the district conrt, Mra, I. N, Selah, a resident of West Point, aged 6, who swears that she is the mother of Isaac Selah, who en- listed under the nume of Tsaac S. A Camp Lyon, on or about the 1+t d November, 1861, in ('o, H, 11th Tllin cavalry, who died at Vickburg, from dis- ense contracted while in the line of duty in the army on the 18th of October, 1864; that she was in part dependent on said son for support; that her husband Isaac Selah, aged 66, on account of od aze and in. firmity, is not able to support her; that there were surviving at the date of said son’s death his brothers and sisters, who were under 16 years of age, as follows; William Selah, born May 3, 1850; J. 1. Selah, born February 12, 1852; Nellie M. and Mary Selah, born April 1, 1854; Clar- ence Selah, born October 1, Selah, born October 31, 1860; Alice Selah, born June 28, 1863, That her residence is West Point, Attest: H. H, Fregze, J. B. LEEDOW. Sworn and subscribed on 22d August, A. D., 1879. ‘Wi, Sravreg, Clerk, Accompanying this declaration were several interesting documents, among which is the following endorsement: “Hon, E. K. Valentine states that to his personal knowledge, husband was unable to and as a fact did not main- tain his family at son’s death, and has not since.” The death of Iszac Selah occurred at the close of the war, in 1864, DMrs. Selah and family resided in Illinois and did not come to Ne- braska until 1870, but Valentine cer- tifies as a congressman that to his per sonal kuowledge Mr. Selah did not maintain his family at the time of his son’s death in 1864, six years before ever Valentine knew that such a per- son as Sclah existed. He certities that for nearly sixteen yoars Mrs, Selah and her family were without visible means of support. But they survived all the same in that starving condition, At Valentine's instance Mrs, Sclsh received a back peneion for sixteen years, at eight dollars a month, over $1,600, and the money, as we are in- formed, was invested by ene of the starving sons in an invoice of clothing for his clothing store. No wonder the family is grateful. One of the' Selah starvlings, the editor of the Norfolk Jowrnal, is fulsome with praise of his benefactor aud never tires of abusing and vyillifying his op- pouents. Another starveling, Murs, Selah’s son-in-law, is editor of The West Point Kepublican, Val's home organ, and he also earns the pension. Our Val's usefulness was exhibited in a triking manner to the incidental editors of The Omaha Republican, who was pensioned at §6 a day on Uncle Sam as clerk of Val's agricul- tural committee. But our Val isa good provider for his own relations. Since providing one of his brothers with the homestead, out of which bosom Pluced on a footing |1, John Rush, present republican treas- urer of Douglas county, was swindled by Val as registrar of the United States land “office, he has alsofjbe- came very ueeful to another brother who was known in Omaha for years under the name of ‘“Muggins.” Not many months ago ‘“Muggins” received his back pay pension for disability as a soldier, amounting, as we are in- formed to §3,000, but the same pen- sioner was recently made a member of o benevelent society which carries a life insurance, and ‘‘Muggins” stood the examination and filed the certifi- cate that he 1s perfectly souud in body. S0 he must have got over his disabil- ities from the war soon after the pen~ sion was granted, Last week ‘‘Muggins” was again provided for by an appointment as railway postal clerk. The only man that has not yet exhausted our Val's usefulnees is Peter Schwenck, who is highly recommengied but still waiting, “CHRONIC CROUNSE.” the Editor of The Bee. To those familiar with the political history of E. K. Valentine it is quite refreshing to hear the writer in The Bepublican and other puny seribblers talk of “Chronic Crounse,” Valentine began with the land of. fice appointment in 1866, which he held four years; in 1872 he was an as- pirant for the secretary of state, but was heaten Dby Gosper; in 1874, office hunting haviog become a chronie ailment, he tried for the secretaryship again and was de- feated by Tzschuck, In 18756 he was a candidate for district judge and b the shrewduess of Cowin and the kind- ness of the supreme court he was in- office of troduced to the (judicial?) ermine. In 1878 he w-s nominated to congress, and renomnated in 1880, Four years in the land office, three years district judge and four years in congress and two unsuccesaful attempts on the sec- retary of state! Oh! no, he isn't ‘“‘chronic;" it's some other fellow; some anti-railroad chap. Ploase give us a rest on that ‘“chronic” business, R PUBLICAN, THIRD JUDICIAL DISTRICT The Republican Convention to be Held at Blalr.

THIRD JUDICIAL DISTRICT Call for a Republican Convention for the Third Judicial District, The republican elestors of the Third judicial district of the state of Nebraska, are hereby called to send delegates from the several counties to meet in conyention at the court house in the city of Blair, Washington county, on Monday, the 11th day of September, 1832, at 11 o'clock a. m., for the purpose of placing in nomina- tion candidates for the office of district y | indge and the office of district attorney for eaid district, and to transact such other business as muy preperly come before said convention, The several counties are entitled to the following representation in raid conven- tion: Burt county 8 delegates, Washington 9, Sarpy 4, Douglas 18, 1t is recommended: First—That the said delegates be elected by the connty conventions called to elect delegates to the state and congressional conventions. Second—That no proxies be admitted to the convention, except as are held by pec- sons residing in the counties from which the proxies are given, Third - Ihat no delegate shall represent an absent member of his delegation, un- less he be clothed with authority from the county convention or is in possession «f proxics from regularly elected delegates thereof, By order of the district committee, A, M. CHaDWICK, Chairman, W. I BAKER, Secretary, RAILROADS AND THE PEOPL, To the Editor of Tux Bek: Noticing the constant fizht made by The Republican on behalf of the rail- woay monopolies, I desire through your columus to state a few facts from an opposite stand point, 1. Noman who claims to be 1n- formed on the railway question and who will not prostitute his manhood, can truthfully eay that there is a uni- form tariff o rates or a competitive system among the lines of railroads running out of New York, or those lines that connect with the New York trunk lines, 2. No well informed man can truth- fully say that there is any competition between the Union Pacific and the B, & M. On the contrary, it isa well- known fuct that the liués divide up the net earnings regardless of the tonnage carried or the line carrying the same, This is done between all the lines, and makes the phrase ‘‘competition” iply & misnomor, a delusive- word with which they misguide the public mind, 3. Instead of having uniform rates of freight they show partiality in all classes of freight and defeat the spirit of the laws of the country. Especially is that the casein Nebraska. In s me instances Lincoln wholesale merchants get better rates per ton per mile than merchants in the same line of business in Omaha] By this non-competitive system the net earnings of some west- ern lines for the year 1880 —and they are greater for 1881—are enormous. The C. B. & Q.'s net earnings per mile for 1880 were $3,727.96; the Chicago & Alton, $4 89¢ the Chi- cago & Northwestern,-$5,683.81. Lhese monopolies combined derive a groster revenue annually from their lines than the receipts of the United States governmenc, It is the greatest combination of wealth known in sa- cred or profane hustory. It is one- eighth of the entire assessable prop- | ¥ erty of the fifty million inhabitants of the United States. It is three times greater than the value of all the slaves of the south of 1861, They have been given through abuse of governmental patronage s vast em- pire of land, which, if in one body, would be over three hundred and thirty.five thousand rquare miles, or seven times all Pennsylvania, and only six thousand equare miles less than the original thirteen states, 1t is surprising that the wen who fought to preserve the unicn and abol- ish slavery are watching with suspicion this abuse of governmental patronage and the rapid encroachmert vpon their inalienable rights. Can it be presumed that the people are to wait for justice from the formal decision of a court, whose opiuions are bought with gold, while tho sword of avarice is ready to put an end to their livea! OMaHA, August 12, 1882, Annual Meeting of State Alilance, To the Members of the Alliance, GeNtLEMEN:—By authority of a resolution adopted at the special meet- ing of the alliance held at Hastings in January last, the annual meeting of the state alliance bas been deferrod from its regular date until TUESDAY, SEPT. 20, 188; at Hastings, in Adams county. You are urgently requested to sena delegates to this meeting. The ratio of representation, is one delegate for each alliauce, and one additional dele- gate for each 20 members thereof, Your secretary congratulates you upon the remarkable success aud strength achieved by the alliance in the short period of its existence There are now in the state 489 organ- ized alliances, with an enrolled mem- bership of 25,000. We have a large and active state committee, a con- gressional committee in each congres- sional district, and county and pre- cinct committees in most of the coun- ties. By our efforts the anti monopo- ly sentiment of the state has been aroused as it never was aroused betore, Business men, professional men and working men are waking up to the importarce of our cause, and the dan- gers which menance our institutions, and are joining the anti-monopoly ranks by thousands, Working-men's organizations are rapidly formi throughout the state, and only har. mony and co-operation of theso ele- ments are needed to achieve nplete success in the approaching campaign, and secure a state admioistration, a legislature and a U. 8. Souator in harmony with the people on the great question of monopoly. An Indepsident Anti-Monopoly state convention will be held at Hastings, September 27, 1852, the day following our annual me-ting. 1t is earnestly hoped that every Al- liance in the state will send delegates to this annual meeting, and that every member of the Alliance will make it his special duty to see thai his county is represented in the state convention. [ This state convention is the crowning work of the Alliance this year. If it puts a good ticket in the field and elects it, the credit of that achieve- ment will belong to the Alliance. Failure in any particular will also re- flect discredit upon it. But let us recognize no such word as failure Let ¢very man consider it. his epecial duty, first, to secure the nomination of a good ticket and then secure its election, It is recommended by the state com- mittees that independent or alliance tickets be nominated in every county, and that all anti-monopolists be cor- dially invited to support them, regard- less of past party afliiations, In counties where no county committee has* been appointed officers of any allianve are requested to see to it that primaries and convestions to selcct delegates are held. Do not let attendmnce at Hastings be confined to delegates, Let all members of +he allianee who can do so attend both the anmual meeting and the couvention, and inspiro and up- hold the delegates in their good work. Delegates to the annual meeting are cepecially urged to reach Has- tings during Monday or Monday night. As there will be a large gatheringat, Hastings during the days of our meetings, and hotels will be over- crowded, it is suggested that such as are disposed to do so bring blankets, 8o that they may sleep comfortably under temporary shelter.
