The State Anti-Monopoly league will moet at Haatings, September 27, 1882, in connection with the State Farmers' alliance, for the purpose 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 eloct delegates to on attend the convention. By order of tne executive com- mittee, H. 0. Osrernovr, Poa.

The public should be on their guard against the bogus reports of oxtrava- gant harvests which aro daily placed in circulation by eastern speculators, with a view of decreasing tho price of whest in the hands of the farmers. There is no questioning the fact that the present vrop will bo as large, if not larger, than any ever before vested, but the wild reports of some stock jobbing journals, whose only ob- ject 18 to depress values for the bejafit of great oporators, shculd e taken with a great deal of sligwauce. The warkots just ot present aro unu- sually dull~ Thig is owing largely to the chflicting reports of the probable ount of tho wheat and corn crop which will be available during the coming fall and winter. One leading journal places the wheat crop at 600, - 000,000 bushels while another equally reliable goes to tho other extreme and estimates it at 460,000,000 bushels. Conservative judges allow 520,000,000 bushels as the probable harvest, and exactions of exorbitant Where on question these fign s are nearcr to trulh than | either of tho others.

Leading grain dealers pro- dict that if frost holds off for another fortnight & crop of 1,500,0000,000 bushels will be assured. There is the same difference of opinion as to the probable demand for cur surplus crops in Kuropean mar- kots, The bears declare that the crops abroad are abundant whilo the bulls announce that drought in one eection and rain in the The woat reliable reports in- others have wrought havoe with grain, dicate that thore will be a foreign de- mand at good prices for whatever sur- plus crops the west can dispose of, Those who fear unusually low prices must not forget that the mmount of breadstufts which the country can spare this yesr will not be much larger than in 1880, when the ocrop was lighter. The crops of 18580 fol- lowed two yoars of heavy harvest and large surpluses. Our home consump- tion of wheat during the last two years uppears to have been ahout $20,000,000 bushels each, The present year, with our increased population, it cannot fall much below 320,000,000 bushels, Estimating our present wheat harvest at 520,000,000 bushels, wo shall have only 200,000,000 bush- els for export which will easily be ab- sorbed by the foreign demand. 80 there is no reason on the part of our farmers to fear that superabundaut crops will by discounted by unusually low prices. The figures of last year will scarcely be reached, but fifty cent wheat and fifteen cent corn are thinge of the past in Nebraska.

There will be s demand for all of Nebraska's mag nificent harvest this year, and a de- mand, if the wigns of the times do not fail, as prices which will bring our producers a rich reward at the fruit of their labors. Tugr soldiers’ home is a national in- stitution for the benefit of privates of the army disabled in service, Ttis maintained by an enforced tax of twelve and a half cents monthly de- ducted from the pay of every enlisted man in the army. Its government is under control of a board of three heads of staff, consisting of adjutant general, the commissary general, and the surgeon general, and the immedi- ate excontive power rests ina gov- ernor who at the present time happens to be Generel Sturgis, colonel of the Seventh cavalry. During the last session of congress, chargoes of a very grave naturo were preferred againat the board of ma gers of the home, consisting of Adju- tant General Drum, Commissary Gen- oral Macfeely, and Surgeon General Barnes. It was asserted that these members of the soft service brigade at Washington, who draw each 85,000 a year pay from the nation, had been engaged in a series of petty pilferings from the home at the expense of its occupants. According to the reports, the board levied contributions upon the establishments for milk and butter for their private use, decorated their homes with flowers from the gardens, and eppropriated some of its funds for the purchase of a statue of the surgeon general. These delin- quencies were first discovered by Sen- ator Matt. Carpenter, of Wisconsin, who moved their investigation by the senato. After his death the matter was taken up by Senators Logan and Conger, a committes appointed to proaecute the inquiry, and Gen. Stur- gis, the mnewly appointed governor summoned before it. Every effort was made to secure Sturgis’ removal, but pending the investigation the pres- ident and secretary of war declined to interfore. Sturgis’ testimony was mout damaging to the board ot com wissionors and reflected Gpon their honor and integrity.* No soouer had congrées adjourned than the board set to work to punish Sturgis for bis tes- timony by securing his removal, and finally succeeded in obtaining an order to that effect frcm the secre: tary «f war. Senator Conger who happrned to be in Washington at once weat to the war office and pro- tested against the execution of the order, deciuring that Drum, Macfeely and Kaune, Barnes' successor, were punishing Sturgis for giving testimony which he could not have retused to give without falling in contempt of the committee, He protested indig- uantly that the action of the board of commissioncrs was flagrant, defiant of the senate, and announced his in- tention, if their plot succeeds, of bringing the matter before congress at ite next seasion and of baving every oflioer who Lad a hand in it cashiered, T'here should be a searching investi- .| wation of the malter as soon as con- Congress should at once lassert in the its duty and tect witnesses against punishment and prosecution on account of testimony they may be compelled to give before it. Tho wilitary martinets who veg- otate in the neighborhood of the war department ought at once to be made to understand that the arrogant and interferonce with (Lhe privileges of the senate will not be tolerated for & moment. The con- temptibly small business of grand staff officers pilfering frcm the earnings of enlisted soldiers is bad euough and ought to be promptly punished, but a high handed outrage is committed when the action of the unational con- gress in bringing the matter to light gress moets, strongest terms power to pro- meddlesome followed by the prosecution of the officer whose testimony proved the truth of Seore- tary Lincoln himself no less than to the army which is disgraced by the conduct of such officors to retain General Sturgis in his position until congress can meel and give a fitting rebuke to the cheeky insolence of Generals Drum, Macfeely and Crane, the charges, owes it to BreINNING with the November number, thero wiil appear 1o the (en- tury Magazine o series of papers by Rov. Washington Gladdin, D. D, of Springfold, Mass., descriptive ot **The Christian League of Connectiout.” It is an acoount of oco-operation in Christian work among the different churches of large towns in Connecti- out; showing what kinds of work they attempted, and wha! kinds they declined to attempt; what wmethods they employed; how they combined effeotively in caring for the poor, in guarding the public morals, ete.; and how this experiment led to a county organizaticn for the consolidation of feeblo churches in the small towns, and finally to the adoption of the same methods throughout the state. These papers are the outcome of much study of the practical probloms dis- cussed, and are likely to have impor- tant practical results, A SCANDALOUS VERDICT. Five out of eleven councilmen have declared under oath that Daniel P. Angell, city marshal of Omaha, is not guilty of neglect of duty and violation of the ordinances which he is required to enforce. Inasmuch as & majority of the entire council (seven members) did not vote the marshal guilty he stands acquitted and will continue at the head of our police force. A more scandalous verdict was never rendered anywhere. It is not only a disgrace to the city council but an outrage upon the whole community, Thereis hard- ly & man, woman or child in this city that does not suffer more or less from the reckless and criminal negligence of the chief of police. Tt is a notori- ous fact that our police force is thor- oughly demoralized and lias been prac tically no protection to the community since Angell hus boen marshdl. Thugs, thieves, pickpockets and butglars have boldly carried on their vocations un- der Angell’s nose and a number of per- sons have lost their lives through his failure to enforce law and order. On Jast Christmas morning Mr. Hammer was murdered in a saloon within sight ot police headquarters. The saloon was running in full blast at 3 o'clock in the morning in defiance of law, which requires the saloons to close at midnight. It was not only after midnight, but it was Sunday morning, The evidence before the coroner's jury, of which Councilman Dunham was a member, showed that other saloons were open after midnight and a gang of roughs were carousing and disturbing the peace up to the time of the murder, Now Mr, Dunhaia, who sepresonts the moral and law-abiding element of the Fourth ward, as a member of that coroner's jury, ren- dered a verdict with a recommendation thet Mr. Treitschke's saloon license be revoked. But Mr. Dunham sitting under oath on the trial of Marshal Angell, votes not guilty on the charge that Angell allowed saloons to run after midnight in violation of the ordinances. Does anybody believe that Hammer would have been mur- dered if Angell had enforced the law? How does Mr. Dunham reconcile his verdict of not guilty with his con- science when confronted by his ver- dict on the esroner'’s jury in the Ham- me; cagel Again,recently alawabiding citizen, Fred Lange came to his death in an attempt to protect his property against burglars. That man would have been alve to-day if we had a live Marshal. The accidental death of Mead, who feli from the tight rope, can justly be laid at the door of Marshal Angell. Had he . enfogged the erdininces| Mead would not have performed, but the moral, and law and order faction of the council voted Aungell not guilty in the face of the testimony, while the so-called hoodlum councilmen voted to have him deposed. There arc fully two hundred prosti- tutes in this city, who ought to pay montbly fines, which at an average of five dollars per month would aggregate $12,000 a year, but tho efficient Mar- shal only reported thirty-five prosti- tutes to the police court, and the school fund 1s the loser of thousands of dollas por aunum. It was [shown during the trial that his deputy was frequently drunk and had been a con- stant violator of the law. This man had been Angell's depty for seventeon months, and Angell was his boon companion in carousing and Bat at the this deputy tenders his resignation and Angoll is acquitted on the ground that he was not responsible for the criminal conduct of this deputy, al- though the law expressly holds the marshal responsible, In ordinery and purely political contests public men are excused for siding with each other. But when men are on oath, sworn to rendera verdiot according to evidence, aud the facts are clear and overwhelming it is simply monstrous for them to vote not guilty” because their faction de- sires to The whole commuuity, excepting perhaps the outlaws and burglars, will regard the accquital of Angell asa scandalous proceeding that will expose our citi- bumming, last moment custain itself, zous to furthor raids from the danger- ous classes. We have purposly re- frained from discussing the merits of the case during the trial in order thut no charge could be made that we have sought to iufluence the verdict by preseure of public opinion. But we now feel it our duty to say to Mayor Boyd that public safety denmands a prompt change at the head of the 1o is not & question between police. The republican party in Missouri have increased their numbera from 17,028 in 1860 to 153,667 in 1880, and there is certainly no reason why they should hand over their strength to an crgan- ization which could only muster 35,000 votes (at the last presidential election. 1 E)1 .

San Pranclaco Chronicl The Central Pacific railroad com- pany have two specific methods of showing their tyranny, both mean and contemplible, Oze of these relates to rebate, and the other to shortage. When a contract is made with a mer- chant he is expeoted of course to ad- hore striotly to its terms, Variovs ex- pedients are resorted to to compel his obedience. The clipper ships when loading in New York, are watched lest some article consigned to him should be smuggled on board.
