It looks as if Gad Blaughter has been iuaported to Albany. Five thousand dollars roward is offered for the return of Btato Treas- urer Vincent, of Alabama, Tressarers in the south are valuable pieces of property. — CoLorAvo's product ¢f gold, silver, lead and copper last year was about $25,000,000 Her product of senators at the last election represented exactly $10,00),000, and unfortunately noth- ing else. Tag governmenc paye the railroads nearly eleven million dollara yearly for its mail sarvice. It other words, the goverament contributes two per ceut of the entire aanual gross earn- ings of the railroads of the United Blatea, Ir 18 rumored in Washington that Judge B:adley will retire from the su. preme court bench in a few months and bo auccreded by Secretary Fre- linghuysen. Julge Bradley will be remembered as the popular favorite of the demooratic party daring tho elect- oral cymmission agony. — Ir there are any abuses connected with the N breska insane asylum the people want to know it. The general impression is that Dr. Matheweon's administration has been a remarkably successful one, so successful in fec: that several other dootors of less ability wonld bo glad to slip into his shoes. Tho present legislature has, howaver, no idea of investigating one man out of cftize for the purpose of appoiuting & jealous and ambitious oandidato to the rame position. SEEE——— THERE are already a hali a dozen self announced candidates for the various oity cffices whioh will be vi- cated at the oomivg spring elections. Most of the gentlemen who are anxious to sucoeed Mayor Boyd and his assoclates will not fill the bill. Our eitizens aro especlally anxious at this time to secure capable, «flisient and honest men as their represontatives, A great deal of money s to be taken in and disbursed In the next two yeoars for public improvewents and that is one reason why the taxpayers of Omaha will be even more careful than usual in thetr choioce of clty of- ficlals and counci'men, Those men whe are most anxious to secure office are the ones who are least likely to sucoceed. — More attention than it deserves Is being given to the trouble at the An- napolis naval academy. The affair is & oollege row complicated by mutiny, and like most such rows shows how bumptious boys can be and how inju- dicious their masters. The original cffsnse was that of Cadet Woodruff, who had solved certain hard problems in naval architecture, obtalned per- mission to leave the room durlng ex- smination on plea of necessity, and while out posted a paper on which the problems were worked out where other cadets could see them; and then on relurning signed an affirmation that during his absence he neither re- celved assistance nor rendered any. The facts being discovered, Capt. Ramsay imposed on him certain ‘‘de- merits” for dishonorable conduct and deprived him of his ravk as petty cfizer. Bome oadets took it upon tham to cheér Woodruff, and penalties were likewise laid upon them; and when a derlsive howling and hissing arose in regard to this order, a third ‘was issued sending all cadets of the first olass who participated on board the prison ship Santee, now lying in the Bevern, and depriving the petty officers of their rank snd privileger; snd also restricting all the cadets in various ways, such as forbiddirg them to attend ‘‘hops,” to walk beyond the scademy grounds, or to walk in them “with ‘other persons than oades” The conseyuence is that thero are 40 cadots shut up on the Santee, and the rost of them extremely uncomfortable, while the commandant is malntaining his dignity over them all. The boys have acted like fools,—cheering & man who is properly punished for cheating and lylng, and resontingall discipline, They seem to forget that they are a part of the military force of the cown- try, supported by the country. PROHIBITION OR HIGH LI UENSE. Towa prohibitionists are rampant over the decislon of the supreme court, declariog the late constitutional smendment vold, and Governor Sher- man is urged to call an extra session of the legislature as speedily as possi- ble to take the first step towards the submission of snother prohibitory amendment, 1f the govornor is wite he will re- fuse. Public sentiment in Iowa on the question of compulsory temper- suce has undergone a great charge since the members of the last legisla- ture were elccied, and another reasion of that body would not fairly ropre- sent the voters of the state on the pro- hibition 1ssne, The result of the experlment in Kansas has baen an eye opener to many who bolieved that the erforce- ment ¢f prohibition was pract c.ble, and the revalsion of feeling at the Iste election indicated what the verdict of the people of that state will be shonld the qaestion ever agaln be sub- mitted to them for revision. No sensible man wi'l deny the evils resulting feem intemperance or place any obstacle in the path of such re- striction of the traffic in liquois as ia demanded by public sentiment, and can be enforced by law. Baut the fact remains unchallenged that no prohib- itory amendment has ever been en- forced and it is fair to assume from the results of past experience that none ever can be enforced. Nebraska has gone farther than any state in the union towardssolving this important problom of regulating the liqnor traffis, If the Iowa republicans desire a sensible law which can be 'en- foroed let them copy our high license bill with such modifications as have boen suggonted by its operations, They will fiad that nothing will so quickly take the question of prohibltion out of politics because no prohlbitory law can throw greater msfoguards around li- qaor selling or be enforcad half so easily. In addilion the revenue from high lizenses {8 no small matter to be passed over, when taxpiyers are con- sidering the temperance question, DISTURBING INVESTMENTS. . The rallroad managers and thelr reprecontatives at Lincoln have a great deal to pay about the immense oapital iavested in railroads in Ne- bracka, the cost of their constrnotion and the small returns which they pay on theinvestment. They protest that legislation ngainst extortionate rail- way rates will be interference with private property, and esk why the peoplo do not attempt to restrlot the charges in other industrios beside their own. Now, if ever the public had an in- terest In any corporation or businesy concern, they hava in the rallroads which traverso this state. Those roads were built originally were money donated by the government and bonds voted by the people. The United States poured over $70 000, 000 into the pockets of the Oredit Mobilier and Cntral Pasifis syndi- oates and votod them a princely land grant which in itae/f would have been sufliztent to construcs the Union Pa- cific from Omaha to Cheyenne. Ic addition hundreds of thousands of dollars of local aid have beex extorted feom towns and cities along ita route. The capital investod was the people's and all the income for years has goue' into the pockets of the stook jobbers and pirates who have manipulated its scouritles, watered its stock and in. creased Its indebtedness to cover up the enormous profits earned by its operation. The only investment which the Oredit Mobilier gang made was sn investment of bribery and jobbary in Washington and now their suc- cossors have the impudent audacity to protest against any interference by the people with the righ's cf innocert cap- italists. While the B. & M. received no government subsidy in money, the sales from their land grant in the most fertile portion of Nebraska have been suffizient to build the road and all ita branches over again from Plattsmonth to Calbertson, without taking into ac- count the liberal local ald which its managers have received from towns and counties along its route. Lot the faot be known that these gizantlo monopolies have not only been created by the state, brt fur- nished with their capital by the peo- ple, and the howl sgiinst any restric- tion of their abuses because it may im- palr their dividend earnings, will have little effect on membera of the legisla- ture sworn to curb the extortionate exactions of the rallroad robbers. — A CORRESPONDENT writes us ocom- plaining that “Tue Bek is not pub- THE DAILY BEE--OMAHA FRIDAY FEBRUARY 9 weloome when written conclsely and a8 bricfly as possible.

Senator Van Wyck's excellent apeech has waked up a hornet's neat, It bhas also sent post haste to Wash. ington a lumber lcbby which is only second in means and influsacs to the steel and iron ring in the capital, The pecple of the west are now taxed $10,000,0(0 a year on the lum. ber they consume, This enormous subsidy is pocketed by a ring of east- ern lumbermen who have steadily ad- vanced prices and pocketed enormous profits out of the necessities of the trecless states. Within the paat five years the prlces of common lumber in Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas have ad- vanced from 45 to 66 per cen*, while those of the finer grades have in- oreased in a sijll larger ratlo, Phere is no excuse for this impo- sltion except the greed of the lumber barons. The tax on lumber adds from $8 to $40 an acre to the value of their pine lambs, It does not increase by a dollar tho wages earned by the Oanadian lumbermen who are chicfly employed in felling and transporting the logs. In addition, the tariff on lumber is & standlng premium to a wanton destruction «f our forests which threatous to make our seasors alternations of ruincus drouth and sweeplng flyods. THE LUMBER DEALERS’ PETI- TION. A lettor from Mr. Frank Colpetzer to the editor f Tue Bee encloses the followit g petition of western lumber donlers to corgress, acking that Cana dian lumber be placad on the free list. The names a,pendcd represent over two millions of capital, lnyested o selling and manuficturing lumber: Oricaco, Fobruary b6, 1883, To the Honorabla the Seuators and Repre- sentatives in Congres, assembled: We, your potitioners, earnestly beg that in your wisdom you may seo tha thoughtful prudence and strong necus- ity of such legislation as will placa Canadian lumber on the free list, and otherwire amend our presoat rariff laws. Wo thivk, in view of dhe rev- elations made by our federal sensus in 1880, which, however dlspated, must bo valuable as » basis of 1formation, we fiod fecm the statistics of forestry that the entire standing white pine of the Unlted States is only sufficient to supply our wants for fifteen years, au presont rate «f consumption, We think the census estimate somewhat lu error, and we belteve the error was imposed on the census bureau by the reports of the ownera f timber lands, for the direct purposa of convincing the public that the supply of our white plne was nearly exhausted, and as a result pine lauds mast rapidly enhanco n value, and these being in the hands of comparatively faw persons, offsring an easy and tempting opportunity to monopoly. But the question of ad- mitting Oaned aa lumber to our ports free of duty was not seriously thought of at the time our owners (t growing ptoe furnlshed sach reliable informa- tion to our census bureau, white pine to sapply our needs for twenty or twenty-five years, surely it s the part of prudence and the duty of tesmen to make prevision against such a calamity in our new republio, with its sparsely settlod states avd territorles, needlng, above all things pine lumber to bulld homes for the brave, oivilizing pioneers cf our tree- less plains, We think there can be no goed reason for taxing any lumber (in 1t roug1 state) that may come to our ports, Of course, the people liv- ing in the prairio states are the great- oot sufforers from a short supply of high priced lumber, Your petitioners would ask your at tention to the following table of prices, showing the rapid advance in lumber in the past five ycars, CHICAGO QUOTATIONS ON COMMON LUM BER, 1 Admitting that we have srflizient 1878, Studding, joists and ti e $ 900 to $11.00 Common bo 10,00 to 11 00 Standard A shiogles 2(0t0 225 l4vto 1.60 1883, Studding, joists and tim. ber .. $18.50 (o $19.00 Con mon board and fencing 14.50 t, 18.00 Standard A saiogles 4 0 Lath . 2.7 8howing an lcorease of from 45 to 66 per cent on common lumber within the ]l)ut five years.

Cleveland Leader A movement {8 being made to se- curea prohibitory amendment to the coostitation of Penneylvania Nearly & hundrcd, thousand people have signed potitions favoring the mensure, ard the subj ct will doubtless provoke leginlative action, To help on the matter ex-Chicf Justice Agnaw, of that state, recently addressed (ho members of the legisla- ture at Harrisburg. He assumed that prolubition was the demand of the hour, and that the legislature could do no better work than to prohibit the manuofac:nre and sale of liqaor in the state. He mude, however, an admis- slon that must prove fatal to pro- hibition uuless the federal constitu- tion {tself undergoes a change. In winding up his argument he remarked that prohibition of the importation of liquors would be an infringement of the conatitution of the United States. Herein lies a fatal bar to the success ot prohibition. If it were poesible for a state to break up and banish all diatilleries, breweries and saloons, liquor could still be brought within its territory and offered for sale. In the absonce f domestic liquors those of foreiga manuficture would be intro ducea, as has been done in the state of Maine. The con- stitution permits importation of wines, spirituous and malt liqaors, and the sapreme court of the United States has more than once decided that imported liquors may be sold anywhero aud everywhere in the orig- inal packages. If {fmporters chooee to import brandy, whitky or other liquors in half-pint or gul packages, sach packages may be taken into any state aud sold, provided they remain unbroken, As we have sald, this sort of thing has been done In Maine, the tmpportations being from Canada, Bas fors prohibition can amount to much its advocates must secure an amend. ment to the federal as well a8 their own state cot siitutions, and this they will find to ha a heav ertaking. —_— Enaot a Strong Law. Burtonian, The fact that the people of Nebraska demanded of the preseut legtslature the paseago of some law that would effectually prevent the abuse of power on the pare of the railroads of our stale, and prohibit them from de mavding or collecting such uaroas- onable and exorbitant charges as they have heretofore been permitted to make, at lerg'h seemed to have forced itself upon the unwilling brain of our railroad « fiislals, and the resalt has been the iutroduction in our legislature, by representatives and teyators who faver the aforeeaid rallcoads, of aecore or more of bills providing for the eloction or appoint- ment of a board of rafircad commis sionera to whom should be referred al} questions in dispute between the peo ple and the managers of the roads, the reason for the introduciion of these bills evidently being the fact that such a law would be the least ob- jeotionable tq the raiiroad men of any that could be onacted, it being well underatood on their part that railroad commissioners seldom i ever do any- thing contrary to the wishes cf the corporations who furnish them oys- ter suppers, and grant them free passes over their roads, and now it transpires that these bilis have all been {ntroduced to no pur- pose, and this avenue of escape sud- denly closed. The supreme court hss declded that & railroad commisaloner system modelled after the lllinols or owa laws will be in violation (f the Nebraska constitution, which prohib- ita the creation ¢f new exsoutive offi ces, This clears the way for the en- sctment of some law that will be of some practical benefit to the paople at large, and the supreme cour:in ren- dering such a dscision have earaed the everlasting gratitude of the far- mers and business men of our state. —y The Next Senate. 860 Franclsoo Cal. . The next Uaited States senate is to b the battlefield where the tanff and other Important issues will be hotly contested, The lower house of con- gress, it is thought, will have so de- cided & majority in favor of a tariff for revenue that opposition will be nearly aseless. The great manuficturers will therefore make thelr principal fight for protection in the senate. Being farther removed from the people and being elected for six years, senators do not usually feel the full force of public opinion as do members of the house of representatives, Persone who havoe large interests at stake nat. urally look to the senate fir con- servative legwslation. Untll poli tica and business are divorced this will always be the case. No one can tell what the next senate will do; but some of the characteristics of {he new and re-elected membe be given as a starting point or as a alight olue by which to judge their future course of action. Sinator Plumb, re-elected from Kinsas, is a millionaire who talks but little, but who is noted for his good judgment In matters of legie- Tation for bigparty Senator Garland, re-elected from Arkausas, {s the prin cipal author «f the new constitution of that state, which has worked well and eatisfied the people. He was governor of Arkansas before he became senator, and stands so woll with his people that he was re- elected by an almost unanimous vote of both parties, only three members votlng sgainst him. Senator Beck,s hard headed Scotchman from Kon. tucky, has always taken high rank in congress, He has ‘the ‘‘genlus of common sense” in a marked degree. Sonstor Morgan, re-elected from Ala- bama, is & fl1ent speaker, and isready on all occasions to address the senate ou any subjeot that comas up, He is sald te be the best orator in Alabama, but he is not the best in the senate. Ho is » man of convivial habits sud well liked by hia sssociates. Eenator Batler, of Syuth Oarolina, one of the youngest senators, has steadily risen in public estimation stnce he first en tered the senate. He is able and has made an excellent record. Sena- tor Siulsbury owca hin re-electi.n to family itflience, There has been for many years a Saulsbu'y in the senate from Dslaware. His brother, who preceded hm for several terms, was & much abler nan. Senator M- Pherson, (f New Jerney, owes his ro- election to the fact that his opponenis could not ccmbine their s'rength on 1y one candidate. McPherson is man, who 1neists ngon talkirg whon ver7 often no one wishes to hear him. 8 nator Frye, re.clected from Maine, is an able but indolent man, He was ons «f Blaine's managers at the Chiengo convention, Mr. Gib- sou, of Louisiana, now a member of cougress, will be one (f the woat ueelul, gentlemanly and honora- ble mewbers of the nex: senate Gov Colquitt of Georgia, whe will teks his 8ut a8 & eenator on the 4 h of March, has had an_eventtul career. He has been a toacher; a minlster of the gos pel, a planter and a railroad builder. He commenced a political oarcer a few yoars ago, and was succes: ful from the start. Cncosen to the legislature, he became a leader, and was nominated tor governor, Agalnst violent oppo- eitfon he was renominated and re- elosted, and now steps from the gov- ervor’s chair into the United States senate, POLITIOAL NOTEHS.

Ex-Senator John B. Gordon, who has just returned from Europe, expresses no desire to return to pubiic life. While a senator he was poor and over.worked, In five years after leaving the senate he has become rich, idle, and happy. “Do you want to ruin my edministra- tion?” inquires Governor Crittenden of ex- Li utenant Governor Johuson, who has been making some damagng ravelati concerning the management cf the souri | enitentiary, The Massachusetts legielature, having refu-e ! an appropristin to pay fos print. iog 10,000 copies of Governcr fintlnr’- in- augursl speech, the goyernor has ordered 2,000 extra copies which he will pay for out of his uwa pocket.
