ROSEWATER, Editor. " Noose thinks that Mr, Cornell is grieving very much over the result. S— Tie Republican has changed hands. Both heads, however, were tails of the corporation, OounT, recount and count out seem to be the railroad tactics in Omaha politics. 'ue half-breeds were thorough- breds when they came on the New York raco course, For the first time in a general election, the anti-monopoly party figures in the dispatches. And it is & lively infant, Tue Herald announces that the railroads took no part in the late elec- tion, The Herald's renders are neither idiots or fools. Tue Schuyler Sus makes the follow- ing suggestions: The next legislature should submit an amendment regulat- ing the number of children to each family. Tae bosses will postpone that gen- eral reading out of the party which was talked about a few months ago. The list would be too long. ——— SINCE the next congress is to be demooratic, it makes little aiffarence whether the majority is 76 or 100 ‘What the republicans ought to do at onoe, is to forestall democratic legisla- tion by reduci ng the taxes. OAN any bonorable man accept a position 1n the legislature to which he is not elected, and which he cannot hold without conniving at fraud. VaL will have no trouble in getting his certificate, whether he is elected ormnot. “Bi” will accommodate him as ho did Peter Schwenok on the cen- sus returns, ‘WHAT THE OCOUNTRY DE- MANDS. The country has spoken through the ballot box, Its voice is one of re- proof. It condemns congressional cx- travagance in appropriations, the re- fusal of the dominant party to reduce taxation, and the arrogant assumption of the bosses that they own the poli- tics of the nation, It was a fair con- test between the people and the bosses and the result was never doubtful for a single moment. The mass of the United Btates have voiced their wishes at the polls, Taey demand an honest and economical administration of the government by representa ives of the people, who will act in accord with their instruotions. They demand the subjection of corporate monopoly to the law of the land. They insist upon & prompt reduction of the burdens of an outrageous taxation, 1In local and state matters they have protested against national interference, and have proclaimed so that all may hear that a defiant disregard of the wishes of the people in nominating conventions will hereafter be followed by the medicine of defeat at the polls, The voice of the country has also been heard upon the subjact of sump- tuary legislation. The people have demanded that the impracticable ques- tion of prohibitlon be taken out of party politics, In a balf adozen states prohibition entered into the canvass either direotly or indirectly and the result was strongly against the party supposed to favor it, Whichever political organization se- oures and maintains the popular sonfi- denee as disposed and willing to carry out the reforms demanded will elect their president in 1884, Of this there can be no questlon, emem— An interesting ediot has just been issued by the emperor of China, It seems that the fir trees in the vicinity of tho Eastern Tombs have been at- tacked by some insect foe - the tussock moth, or the Parorgyia parallela, or some of the seventeen enemies of the fir enumerated by Packard—and that ravages in that ssored place are so serious that the attention of the Son of He 1 has been directed to them. He bu ccordingly decreed: *‘Let immedic - orders be given to effect- ually secure the insects, that they may be entirely exterminated, it being fm- portant that the mischiof be not al- Jowed to spread.” OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. There is no doubt that Mr. Glad- stone’s cloture will finally paes when the qudstion finally comes before par- linment, The two-thirds majority compromise supported by the torles has been deseated by & majority of 84, which will be nearly the vote by which the measare will be finally passed. As obstruction and the causes for obstruction have largely ceased In parliament, so opposition to cloture is decreasing, and the strong and uncompromising fight which the promier has made for the measure has added to the strength of the ministry. The Pall Mall Gazette recently sum- med up the rale which Mr. Gladstone desires as follows: The sole right of initiative is vested in the speaker, and he is forbidden to use his initiative unless he percieves that ruch a procceding is in accordance with the *'evi- dent wenee of the house,” When the spea- ker puts the question the debate cannot be closed by & fimple majority excepting un- cer circnmstances which do not occur in one division out of four—that is to say, when the number voting in the majority exceeds 200, Oa three-fourths of the oc- casions when the speaker’s initiative ren- ders it possible to vote on cloture, the ma jority mu-t vary trom a majority of from five to one dowawards. If twenty mem- bers wish to continue a debate, ninety- nine will not be allowed to c'oseit. If forty persist in carrying on a discussion, a majority of 190 will be powerless to close it. Not until 200 members are found in the lobby voting for cloture can the rule of the bare majority come iuto play. Such a majority is seldom available at the close ot the seseion, when obstruction is most dan- gerous, nor can it be ossily mustered in the small hours of the morning, when the obstructive is most active, Whatever England designs in regard to the future disposition of Egypt, the ministry have shown remackable good sense in sending Lord Dufferin to negotiate the treaty which is to be made the basis of the new situation. The protest of the sultan was treated with polite contempt, the embassador declaring his mission Immediate and imperative, and informing the minis- ter of foreign affairs that ‘‘he will re- turn on the 25th of December, with a treaty signed by the khedive, in which the rights of the sultan in Egypt will be affirmed.” We may be sure that the forthcoming treaty, when pub lished, will show conclusively that hereafter the sultan will have less real authority in Egypt than a cor- poral in the British garrison there, and that the authority of the khedive, though nominally untrammelled, will really ba little more than that of a British agent. Ia short, while Egypt will not, for the present at least, be annexed to the British empire or openly placed under exclusive British control, yot from this time forth British influence will be dorhinant, and any serious opposition to it on the part of the khedive or people re- garded and treated as rebsllion. The gamo has been played thus far with wonderful skill and audacity, and is not likely to loose in either element under the management of Lord Duf- ferin, When his work is done then will come the more delicate and dif- ficult task of securing the acquieacence and indorsement of a Euaropean con- ference, which, it is thought, may be convened in January, It is not impossible that serious complications may yet grow out of the adjustment of the Anglo-Egyptian imbroglio. Russia is supporting Tur- key in seeking to obtain a revision of the Berlin treaty, and Fraace is dis- posed to side with Russia. The gov- ernmont of the czar is also urging Turkey to send an army into the Sou- dan and not allow England to have the full credit, with the advantage that will acorue to her, of having overcome the Falso Prophet. In fact Austria, Russia and France all manifest con- siderable opposition to the growing strength of Great Britaln in Egypt, France is overcome with jealousy at the supremacy of English interests in Egypt. Having abandoned England, however, at the outset of the struggle and thrown upon her the responsibil- ity of the war, the latter cannot now be expeoted to take French intercsts into very serious consideration, and may, indeed, reply that France has suffisient cempensation in her proiec- torate over Tunis, political mistake when the French ministry refused to participate in the It was a grave |9 reduction of Arabi's army, Gambetta would scarcely have made it, An organ of the Land League makes the Irish agrioultural statistios for 1882, just printed in Dablin, the basis of some gloomy reflections upon the present unfavorable condition of that country, It says that the maln fact which these figures emphasize is that the extent of lands under crops has de- creased from 5,195,375 acres in 1881 5,081,048 acres in the present year, boing a decrease of 114,327 acres of orops. The acreage unuder grass, on the ' contrary, has iucreased from 10,075,424 acres in 1881 to 10,110,072, being an increase of 34,660 acres. Thus of the 114,337 acres abstracted during the year trom the support of man, 34 655 were given to the support of boasts, and the rematnder must have fallen away into barrenness, for we find the return of bog, marsh and barren mountain land” increased from 4,708,947 acres in 1881 to 4,787,275 in 1882 Avother frightful fact disclosed by theso statistios is that of the decrease of 76,071 acres of land under tillage as compared with last year. Ulster is charged with no less than 40,550 acres of the decrease, the deorease in the acreage of flax alone being 33,643 nores in one year, The appalling pic- ture of decay presented by these figures is only heightened when we find that the acreage under crops has been steadily declining from 5,204,005 acres in 1878 to 5,081,048 in 1882, or barely one-fourth of the land of the country. The London papers are making merry over an Amerlean invention, and yet frankly acknowledge its good points, The International Sleep- ing Car Company recently ran an ex- porimental trip from Paris to Vienna and back, and a great deal of enthu- sinam has boon manifested over it. The Loadon Daily News notes with an expression of wonder, qualified, hewever, by American experience, that ‘‘there isa promise that if the through trafic with sleeping and eat- ing cars 8o that one literally lives on board, can be made successful, the plan will be extended beyond Vienna on one side, when ocertain connections aro made to Constantinople, and on others to Calais, Cologne and Bologua.” The Paris-Vienna train was an oxact copy of an American Pallman ““limited.” Commenting with approval upon the enterprise The Daily News shows that it has got over the tradition and natural British hos- tility to our ‘‘long or omuibus car.” It says: ‘‘The long car ia now madeso familiar in England by regular Pull- mar trains that it seems wonderful it was not discovered here, or at least adopted, lorg ago.” The influonce of the St. Gothard railroad on the interests of France is being actively discussed by the the French economists. Schemes are under discussion to prevent Ger- many from reapiog the benefits of transporting English goods to the south, and otherwise to check the fmproved facilities which German industry has for competing with France In the Italian market. In Germany, on the other hand, peti- tions have been forwarded to Berlin asking for a duty on vegetables and an increase of the duties on corn and cattle. The immense influence of the 8t. Gothard railroad upon the im- porting of cattle, cereals and other articles from Italy and the Levant has given a serions importance to this question, and it is probable that an increase of tho duties will be propose to tho reichstag in the course of the next session, Baron Wilhelm Rothechild, of Frankfort, is o strict a Jew that dur- ing his recent tour through Swilzer- land he was accompanied, not only by his ritual cook and butcher, but also by ten devout persons of his own religion, who went solely for the pur- pose of praying with him, as accord- ing to the Mosaic law a congregation mast consist ot at least ten worship- ors. The baron returned his income for 1881 at $1,187,500, so that he can certainly afford himself these ritualis- tic luxuries, Near Aschaffenburg, in Bavaria, Is a small community which enjoys an envious prosperity. It is the owner of a rich clay pit, which yields so large an income as to obviate the neoessity of imposing commercial taxes, and also enables the selectmen to pay 100 marks every year to each adult inhab- tant., Some pears ago, when the town built a bridge across the Main that cost 200,000 marks, there was given to each adult 10 marks and to each school child 50 pfennigson the day the bridge was formally opened. Vienna is to have an elevated rail- road and the government has already decided to grant the necessary con- cessions to an Eoglish company. About 160,000 tons of iron will be re- auired, and the Austriaa furnaces will supply it all.

The Last Game, Like Banquo's Ghost, Is Up Again. The last chance of witnessing a ball game this year will be given to the public to-day at the Union Pacific grounds, at 2:30 p. m. The occasion will be the much talked of contest between the Pacific Exprees and Freight Auditors’ nines, who number among them the members of the well known champion Union Pacific nine.
