DISAFFECTION IN THE RANKY, Mr. Blaine has opened the Maine campaign by one of those aggressive and powerful political speeches for which he is so noted. The liberal oxtracts published in Tnr Ber's spocial dispatches give & com- prehensive idea of its char- acter. It bases this appeal for popu- lar support for the republican party on it's record and defies his opponents to point to a single measure calcu- lated to meet the national need which during the past twenty-one years has been introduced into the body of our statutes by the democracy. With the ory for a now party, which is being heard more and more frequent- Iy nowadays, Mr. Blaine has plainly no sympathy, He Dbe- lieves existing party organizations supposed to voice the people’s needs, and is convinced that the few camp followers which have traveled in the wake of the majority, and brought OrntrAL Or1y, August 14, To the Fditor of Tir Bun, The State Anti-Monopoly league will meet at Hastings, September 27, 1882, in connection with the Stato Farmers' alliance, for the purposs of putting before the voters of the state of Nebraska an independent state anti-monopoly ticket. All anti-mo- nopoly leagues are requested to call special meetings to elect delegates to attend the convention. By order of tne executive com- mittee, H. O, OsrernOUT, Pes. State Anti-Monopoly League. “Qur VAL” is not out of the woods yet by a large majority. | | PENNSYLVANIA'S stalwart candidate is working like a Beaver. | Tue ‘‘burning trsues’ are the ones which the monopolists are most afraid to handle. Iv bribery, trickery and fraud can give Valentine a renomination he is bound to have it. Onvren Howe will have to disguise his Thurston hook with better bait when he comes around fishing for Douglas county votes. WHILE the republican factions are fightiog each other in New York, the democrats are likely to step in and curry off the spoils. Ir only costs the taxpayers of this county six dollars a day for a black- guard to abuse everybody that opposes Valentine for a third term, Ir looks as if the republicans of Ohio were beginning to regret the day when they dragged the beer and Sun- day questions as issues into the state canvass, NEBRASKA is & republican state, but Nebras| ublians aro notin a mood to endorse political acrobats and boes frauds like Church Howe, nor will they allow the monopolies to foist a corrapt jobber like Valentine on them for a third term. rmy brigade in Washington is just now; getting a good deal of attention, IE some of these arm-chair warriora were sent to their posts of duly in the west, and their places filled by officers whose services in‘the field entitled them to & well-earned rest, both staff and line would be correspondingly benefitted. Tur soft Bisuor IreLAND brings glowing re- ports from his Oatholic colony in Greeley county, where three hundred and fifty families are reaping the re- wards of their toil in rich harvests and bountiful crops.

Privare banks in the United States control $222,000,000 of capital. By the bank statement of July the total capital of the national banks was re- ported as $477,000,000,. There ap- pears to be a tendency towards a more rapid development of private banking thau of our national bauk system, deposits and capital in the last year showing a greater percentege of in- crease in the former, 'This is evidence that the profits of banking under our national laws have greatly diminished and that the advantages of circulation are not idered as great as they onge were vesting capitalists. more or less discredit upon the repub- lican party, have not to any great de- gree impairod its usefulness or injured were unsuccessful because the condi- tion of the matket permitted the mill owners to shut down production and live on their accumulated capital, while the operators were starved into submission, The struggle in each oase was a long and a bitter one, but it was vain, because the odds were too heavy at the very outset against the striking workingmen for any sub- stantial hope of success, Conservative estimates place the loss during the past year to the work- ingmen in this country, growing out ot strikes, at $6,000,000, This loss has fallen upon all who share with laborers and mechanics the fruits of their toil. It has been felt in every line of business which gains a portion of its support from the daily earnings of our wage workera. Production stim- ulates production, and fhe lack of the stimulas which six millions of dollars naturally brings has been seriously evidenced in every section of the country where labor troubles have been in progress. The struggle of labor within the past year has gained ita efliciency as an orgavization. Mr. Blaine's views, it must not be forgot- ten, are those of a strong partisan, and partisauship is always more or less one-nided and contracted in its vision, Tho disaffection existing in both political parties is preater, we imagine, than party leaders are pre- pared to admit. There is a ques- ticning among a class of peo- ple who, while not very con- spiouous on the political stage, still take a warm and intelligent interest in public affairs, whether either of the existing party organizatibns are not unfitted to grapple with the great problems of the day. As stated by a recent correspondent, these problems aro ‘‘an honest and therefore econom- ical expenditure of the public moneys, an upright, business-like reform of the civil service, a wiser readjustment of taxation and a more practical provision for the increase of international trade and maritime commerce.” Itisa feel- ing that the cowardice of parly lead- ers and their followers in congress alone prevents either the republican and democratic parties from grappling with these problems, which is largely responsible for the sentiment demand- ing a now party. That demand is not likely to cul- minate (n general and concerted ac- tion for some years to come. Experi- ence proves that political parties ou a great scale cannot be made tu order. They spring into being either in con- sequence of some striking occurrence that stirs up the popular mind as the new republican party came into exist- ence in consequence of the repeal of the Missouri compromise. Or they are the slow evolution from the con- fusion caused by the disentegration of old organizations which no longer meot the popular requirement., There gns that the present is a transition period which will either result in radical reforms n existing party methods or in the formation at some future day, not far distant, of a party, brave enough and strong enough, because of their bravery, to grapple with the issues which are daily becoming moro clearly defined to the people. There are thousands of voters in the rauks of partics whose allegiance hangs on a very slender thread, but who do not deem it best to sever tho connection be- cause of their hope of party reforma- tion within the party lines, And there are other thousands who are held within the ranks because of their feeling that any movement at the present time would be premature and predestined to failure. The time is ugon the lea- ders of both the political parties when they will do well to consider what measures must be taken to preserve their organization, Confidence in po- litical measures and party management once lostis difficult to regain. The idea that the reins of government have fallen into the hands of a few awbitious and not too scrupulous rep- resentatives of the people, is making a headway which evidencs 1tself in the independent movement through- out the country, Isolated cases of revolt in the atates against Bossism i3 spreading and may soon become a chain Iongenough and strong enough to bend together a national movement, Tho issues of anti-mon- opoly and revenue reduction are call- ing together thousands from the ranks of the republicans and democracy. Each and all of these movements rep- resent an element which demands party reform on the alternative of re. volt from the nominations of party leaders. Of one thing we may be certain--for all political history proves it--when parties no longer voice the wishes of the majority they are not long in taking their places among min- ority organizations or else in ceasing altogether to exist, ! THE LOSS BY STRIKES. Of the three great strikes inaugu- rated last spring, each of which had strong popular support und sympathy, none have proved successful, The freight handlers’ strike failed because the corporations employing the strik- ers took advantage of the incoming stream of immigrants to fill their places with men out of employment and who knew nothing and cared nothing for the grievances of the laborers, The great Cohocs strike and the strike of the iron workers more sympathy than ever before in our history. The press has very gen- orally been on its side. The theory that workingmen have no right to contiaue to control wages has been exploded in fifty of our leading jour- nals. It has been well argued that to say that a workingman is bound to ag- cept whatever may be offered him or step aside if someone else is willing to take it, is equivaleut to saying that he must surrender himselt completely to the selfishness of capital and per- mit the standard of wages to be de- termined by the most triftless and in- different in the ranks of labor. One great result scems to be evolv- ing itselt out of these costly strug- gles of the workingmen to elevate their position by their own efforts, and that is a growing tendency towards an arbitration of disputes be- tween employers and employe. This plan has always been advooated by Tue Bee whenever possible, All great advances have been the results of compromise, and the groatest ad- vance in securing happier relations be- tween capital and labor in England and the continent has come from a submission of matters under dispute to boards of arbitration, where de- cision has generally been accepted by both the contending parties. No one believes that this will ever prove a complete solation of a great problem. But it will go far towards preventing the long and bitter conflicts, which, in the end generally result in serious jecuniary loss to the one side and great inconvenience to the other. THE OLD DODGE. It is an old dodge of the railroad political managers to divert attention from the call for anti-monopoly legis- lation by forcing upon party leaders other and less important issues No sooner has the demand come from the people for lawas regulating railroads than the monopolies suddenly take a burning interest in prohibition, or go into wild hysterics over the injus- tice done to women in refusing them tho suflrage. By this trick they have often been successful in raising bogus issues, which subordinate an overpowering public sentiment, and under the cover of the smoke raised by their action, in es- caping untouched by unfriendly logis- lation, This plan is now being put in suc- cessful operation in California by the Central Pacific managers, who have beguiled several republican county conventions into urging the state con- vention to insert a plank in the plat- form in favor of ‘‘Sunday as a day for reat and recreation,” The San Fran- cisco Chronicle asserts that ‘‘Not only has this been accomplished, but what is more to the purpuse of the men who put up the job, the Sunday is- sue has become to all appearances the paramonnt one. The discussion of the extortions and disoriminations of the railroad has been almost entirely aban- doned by tha interior press, and whole columns are now devoted to the Sun- day irsue. Republican and demo- cratic politicians, are now in- stracted to swiog themselves on *‘the Sunday business,” and by their clamor drown the anti-monopoly cry.” The Chronicle points out that if the republicans wish to win in the coming contest they must not subordinate the burning anti-monopoly issue, They should point out to the temper- ance people the utter insincerity of any plank that could possibly be in- serted in the platform with consent of the mass of the party. They should say that, if the sei timent is unanimous enough in California to desiro a re- straint to be placed upcn the free sale of uqunl\ the wuthority resides in every aity;eonnt, , town and township government to en'orece such restraint. It warns tho vep: blicans that in aban- doning the anti- onopoly issue they are inviting defex . They are simply allowing themsel: s to be tricked by the corporation n anipulatory, who at one stroke will & ccced in drowning the ory of she pe iple for redress, and plant on the shou ders of the republi- orn party & Mith old man of the sea,” who will xide it t = destraction, — General Warten's unhappy life is now frankly spoion o | ¢ wauy “artny ol who knew Lim well He is said to have exclaimal #ot lovy efore his death; “Bur, e T el o i 7 v had e;.,.mi{ of the t of war," That he died of nbmkvnfi}‘m ue seems to question, K e KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE. When Vaventine was registrar of the West Point land office, he robbed and swindled the homesteaders by playing into the hands of an organized gang of land sharks. This aystem of plunder and blackmail of home- steaders continued under Valeatine's successors_until his bosom friend and partner in rasecality, Doctor Peter Schwenck, was overhauled and ousted. Valentine, with the most brazen audacity, made a despe- rate effort to prevent Schwench's re- moval, and finally, after Schwenock was forced to resign, he imposed on Secretary Teller and Commissioner Raum by representing Schwenck as Ja political martyr, It was Valentine's man Friday, Schwenck, who was sent from Washington to Liccoln on a miesion to procure a cortified census blank which was deliberately forged and when detected disgraced Nebraska in the eyes of the whole nation. Does any sane man doubt that Valentine selected Schwenk for this criminal er- rand? Will any roputable man dare assert Valentine was ignorant ot the fact that there was no state census taken in 1872, and hence the pretense under which he tried to seat Majors was & sham and a fraud? After Valentine had drawn his full pay as judge of the Sixth district for the time he had served he presented a claim to the legislature for salary during the time which Judge Griffey had acted as judge, and for which Griffey had already been paid. Valentine’s personal ap- peal to the legislature, and his promises of rewards in the shape of federal patronage, resulted in an al- lowance of $1,875, which was made in the bill for the relief of E. K. Valen- tine, passed by the legislature of 1877, This downright robbery of the tax- payers nobedy has as yet dared to defend. Valentine has been in Congress nearly four years and during that time his business has chiefly been to hunt for spoils, log roll jobs and sup- port monopoly leglslation. An active ally of the star route ring, fhe championed | the star route swindle in a memorable speech which was inspired by the Brady-Dorsey gang. On nearly all measures tending to reduce taxation and lessen the bur- dens of the producing and industrial classes Valentine's vote is recorded in favor of reckless extravagance. Since his advent in congress his sole aim has been to domineer in politics through systematic bulldozing and corrupt use of patronage. He has debased the public service by recommending to office dishonest and disreputable men who were totally unfit for any place, and he is the confidential associate of reprobates and rogues. This is in brief the record of fhe man who seeks t¥orce himself upon the people of Nebraska for a third term in Congress, PERSONALITIES, Senator Hoar has gone to Maine to fish, Heory Watterson is compiling a book of side splitting southern jokes, Sir Garnet Wolsley smokes cigarettes while planning a great slanghter, Miss Emma Abbott is said to have made $100,000 in stock specu ations recently.

This morning at 8:26 Gen, Crook and party leave for Prescott, where the general will assume com. mand of the department of Arizona. he special car of the Atchidon, To- peka and Santa Fe rond has been placed at the disposal of the offcers who will travel by the K. ., and 8t. Joe road to Kansas city, thenco by the Atlanticand Pacific tua point 65 miles north of Prescott where ambulancos will be found waiting to transport them to Whipple barracks. The party will be composed as follows: Geneal Crook and servant, Lieut. Col. W. B. Royall, Mrs. Royall, Mies Royall, Major J. P. Martin, Mrs, Martin, Miss Martin and two maids, Capt John G. Baurke, 34 cavalry aide de camp. The headquarters of the department of the Platte was unusually gloomy yesterday in anticipation of the ex- odus of 80 large a number of the most opular members of the staff. Col. yall has baen 8o long in the depart- ment, and through his length of ser- vice and splendid record is 8o evident- ly known that every one regrets to lose his companionship. Major Martin's genial hand grasp and cheery tones will be greatly missed from the adju- tant general's office. Captain Bourke will perhaps be espocially missed by the newspaper men {0 whom he was a perfect mine of information, illustrat- ing his stories with a ready tlow of wit and humor which made them doubly interesting and instryctiye while his unvarving cordiality and readiness to oblige even at the expenss of his own personal conveniencs will not soon be forgotten by the fraternity. A host of friends in Omaha social circles will re- gret his change of station and his brother officers will join the civilians in wishing him a pleasant journey, new honors and a happy hoae in Arizona. Captain Roberts will not easily be replaced in the depatrment. As an emergency man he was unequalled, often filling the offices of aide-de- camp, assistant adjutant general and judge advocate when occasion de- manded. His desk in the rcom of the adjutant general was rarely uuoccu- pied and his unvarying courtesy made him a general favorite with all with whom he came in contact. So much has been said of General Crook and of his relations to our people that nothing need here be added. The last act of the general was to recommend an increase of the Omaha garrison and the enlargement of the post, and both he and General Sheridan worked bravely to that end before the last session of congress. To-day the general issued the follow- ing: FAREWELL ORDEK, HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE ] PLATTE, Omana, NEBRASKA, August 30,1882[ General Order No, 17, ~+In obedience to orders of the Presi- dent, the undersigned hereby relin- quishes command .f the department of the Platte, In severing the person- al and official ties which for so many years existed between himself and the officers and men on duty in this de- partment, he cannot limit _his farewell words by any conventional expressions of regret, but must take occasimn to earnestly thank each and all for duties ably and conscientiously performed under the most trying circumstances. The exigencies of the service have compelled him at various periods to call upou the troops for the most toil- some and dangerous labors, in the per- formance of which all concerned have shown themselves to be animated by the noblest motives and possessed of the highest soldierly qualities. He bids to each a kind farewell and hopes that the excellent reputation for discipline and courage won in the past may be maintained untarnished in the future. GEORGE CROOK. Brigadier General. J.

The state superintendent was expected to be present but failed to put 1n an appearance. Prof. Walker has been engaged to teach the Minden school for the en- suing year. The Sunday school county convention was held at this place on Saturday and Sundsy. It was wéll attended by Sunday school workers both acholars and teachers. The con- vention was conducted by Mr. Stev- enson, state Sunday school mission- ary. The reports of the work done in the county the past year were very encouraging, The model Sunday school was discussed and many good points brought out.
