This s the firat time that Mr. Boyd has been willing to pnt his en- terprise on & business basls. Bafore this he hae always claimed that pork was his business and theatre manage ment pure philanthropy. S1xTEENTH street has been ordered paved with asphalt. This assures us three asphalt paved streets, Douglas, Harney and Sixteenth, of which Douglas {s nearing completlor. The sooner the contracts are let and work 1s begun the better our cltizins will be satlal Tk New York Sun calls the atton- tlon of scheming politiclans to the fact that the present congress Is so consti- tated that {f the presidential election were forced into the house for dzcislon by a third party movoment the vote by states weu!d be twonty-two for the demooratic candidate, fifteen for the ropublican candidate, aud one state (Florlds) divided. TaE president has written o letter to the manager of the touthern expo- sition extollicg the enterprise In high terms and pralsing the roclal, com- merclal and industrial advancement of the south since the war. It wil now be ln order for the democratic press to polnt to the republican con- vention of '84 asthe motive which dictated tho president's letter. In splte of the declslon against the drive well patentecs, they a: till at- tempting to collect royaltlcs from parties using the invention. Farmers in Nebraska and ¢lsewhere are warned to resist the payment of a slngle dol- lar to the drive well sharks. The de- clalon rendered at Dzs Molues last May completely disposes cf all their ighta to the Invention, It was, In effect, that Green, having in 1861 de- vised a process by which a rod was driven into the ground until water was resched, which might be pumped to the surface after the rod was with. drawn, did really abandon this lnven- tlon to the public by failing to apply for a patent until May, 1866; that the relssued patent of 1871 {s void because it embraces the application of a prin- olple not covered by the original In- vention, namely, the substitution of a driven pipe, which remained in the ground, for a driven rod, which was afterward pulled cub to allow the insertion of a pump; that there ‘was produced to the court an abund- ance of testimony showing that E. W, Pardy had In 1849 und 1850 put down driven wells o Milwankee by a pro- ocess substantially the same as that em- ployed by Greeo, snd, also that in the summer of 1861, several months before Green put down his first well on the camp ground of his reglment at Cortland, N. Y., there was succeas- fully constructed at Independence, Tows, & driven well, which waa atube driven down to the water bearing stratum, with a pump attached to the top of the tube. The court, for these reasons, held that the original patent was void for want of novelty, Even had the clalm of novelty been sur tained the patent would have been vold, because of its practical sur- render to the use of the public, The elaborate legal machinery eet up under this bogus patent to wring money from owners of driven welis s etil) in successfal operatlon, but no maw who Is cognizant of this Des Molnes declslon need hesitate to resist all attempts at extortion, The patent is MR- BOYD AND THE BEE. Mr, James E Boyd appears In » osed {n this morulng's papers in which he pretends to give the true version cf the controversy between Tne Ber and the manager of the Opera House. This card Is ohlefly remarkable for what It suppresses. Mr, Boyd wisely omits to state the causes which led to the refasal of Tue Bee to advertise the Opera House on any dlifferent basis from that on which It advertisea any other business entorprlse in Omaha, and contents himself with impugning the motives of the edltor of this paper and throwing dust In the air to befog the maln lssue. Lot the facts speak for themuelves, Early last winter, the editor of Tue Brr gave Imperative orders to_his business manager to return all complimentary tickets to the opera house and to In- form {ts management that the system of wholesale frec puffs would be dls- ocontinued in the columns of this pa- per. He was requested to Inform Mr. Boyd that after a cer- taln date, Tur Bee would pay in cash for all favers recelved from the opera house, and that it in tarn must place itself on the same business footing with Tre Bee Irlor to that time Mr., Boyd's enter- prise had been glven the free run of Tue Bee's looal columns, and column after column of free puffs had ap- peared eash week on our fourth pagé, in return for which Tae Bz recelved a three-inch card announcing shows, and elght ocomplimentary season tickets, Mr. Boyd was Informed that the card rate woald not be ralved, but that all lceal paffs must be marked as advertlsements and pald for at the same rate charged to other Omaha busluess mor. At the same time the editor ¢f Tur Bem gave orders to all employes to scoept no passes to the opsra house, and notified Mr. Boyd that none would be aocepted on account of thie paper. Tala brought Me, Thomas Boyd down Farnam street in a high dudgeon. He declared that no card advertising pald and that cards were only glven as a #op to the newspapera to laduce Iccal puffs and favorable advancs notlces olipped from other pepers to gull the public. He ordered all advertising out of our advertising columns and In- formed our businersoffice that from that date he would pay a line rate for ad- vertislng In ouor loeal columns, using as little space as he eaw fit. This arrangement was eathifactory to this cffico and con- tinued so until early In the spring. Some four months ago Mr. Thomas Boyd Inserted a two-line advertlse- ment in Tue Ber, endlvg with the sentencs, ‘‘For further information 80e Herald sud Republican.” 'This, taken in connection with the con- tinual disparsgement of this pagor, both publicly and privately, by Mr, Thomas Boyd, gave reasonable grounds for cfimse. Tho attention of Mr. James E. Boyd was cslied to the notice. He condemned it eomphati- cally. He declared that the notlee was Inserted without his knowl- edgo or covsent, and blamed his brother for the trouble with Tue Bk which ho inslstedshould never have been permitted to beglin, He was Iaformed that {f he intended to use out columns In that manner he would be charged $1 00 a line for exch insertion, which as Mr. Boyd well says was a prohibltory rate and was intended to be such. Herethe matter dropped. Since that time Mr. Boyd has patronized the columns of Tue Bzx as much or as little as he deslred. He has pald for his advertising at ex- actly the same rates as those charged any other mer- chant in Omaha. And from the day when Tuz Bxs refused to publish a daily advertising sheet for Mr. Boyd's benefit he has not been charged a cent more a line for his notices than any of the large ad- vertisers who use our columus, If it be blackmail to refuse to give away our goods In exchange for what we do not want, THE Bex has consistently and persistently blackmalled Mr, Boyd, since its surrender of hls free tickets. Bat If this be blackmall Mr. Boyd and everyone elso who takes a courtery for a right must make the most of it. Ooe thing mcie. Having forced a personal fight, the proprietor and the mansger of the opera house must not flinch at the conscquences. Other papers in Omaha are tied hand and foot by Mr. Boyd's passes, and dare not critic'zs elther Mr, Boyd or his enterprise through fear of losing the privilego of giving six dollars in ad- vertleing for one dollar's worth of ad- miselon o his theatre, It wes largely with & view of shaklog off this bondage end plscing {ltself o an {ndependent attitude towaadas the opera house that THe Bre eurrendered the conplimentary tickets nearly six months sgo. That attitude it will malntain, It bhas spoken some plata fucts regarding the constructlon of the opers house, Mr, Boyd knows ss well as anyone thelr trath, The publle, who bave so liberally pat- ronized his enterprise, will sustain us in thelr publication. But even if they |do not sud joln the chorua of des polring writers, who grip their passes in ope bhand and Bzr will try to survive, It Is rannitg a newspaper the fearleas expression of whose honest opinlon must ooossion- ally hart the thin skinned and all the more when the (rath ls as notorions as it happened to be in the Instance which 18 now making Mr, Boyd groan and gyrate. — We need an lnspector of balldings, and the first struotare he ought to ex- amine Is Boyd's upera house. Mr. Boyd boasts that it oan be omptied In five minates, 8o It could be It an audlence would fall in line and march oot In military order to a drom tap. Aundlences generally, huw- ever, refase to act that way In case of panto, At the Brooklyn theater, which had five times the convenlences for exlt that Mr, Boyd's has, two handred people trampled each other to death on the stalrs, or were smoth- ered In the halls, That was lu a thea- ter In which the auditorlum opened on the street. In Mr. Boyd's ‘‘tem. ple of amasement,” 1700 peeple have to go up and down from one to three flights of stalrs at every perfor- mance. In oase of panic, no one doubta that the loas of life would be immens It is also true that a door has been cut In the east wall of the building, opening on the roof of Hanscom's brick shanty next door. Mr. Boyd neglects to say that the doors swings to the inside, and In & crush would be entirely useless. Bat with the present accommoda- tloas for exlt, & pertion of the audience might struggle to the street before the fire reached them, if the stage was properly separated from the audi- torlum by a brick wall. Instead of this there is only a half inch plank partition dividing ' the scenes and flies, and all the i flammable materisl which clatters up a atage from the maln audiercs room. Such a plece of economy s criminal, and would not be tolerated for a moment in any oity where a proper building law was en- forced. Nino-tenths of all theatre fires start from the stage, Itis highly important, on that account, that it ehould be as tsolated as possible. It is the trath that harts, and that is why Mr. Boyd !s 8o agitated over Tue Bee's ditclosares. There is one way*in which he can dizcount them, und that s by making such changes in his opera house as will mako it reasonably safe In case of fire and panie for the thousands of our cltiz:ns, who, at the present time, take thelr lives In thelr hands every time they enter its doora, — Tug Ohio republicans have opened the campaigu of 1883 on an equarian and high protective tariff platform. The canvaea will be made on the Scott licenee law and “‘protestion to Amorl- can industry.” The resolutions which troat of elvil service reform pewaione, contract prison labor and a good many other (hivgs may bo regarded e mere embroldery. The real lssues are as etated. The campaign will be up hill work for the republican party and the chan- ces are against tho election of 1ts nom- inees. In the firet place therels a general bellef among the llberal ele- montsof the party that the repub can leaders are playing into the hands of the prohibitionists, Whether this La true or not it will have its effect on the vote. 8o, too, will the position of the party on the tariff. As long as the old fssues growing out of the clvil war and questions of carrency and finance remalned unsettled the repub- licans of Ohio were constantly able to draw upon liboral and Independent voters who could not support the posi- tlon of the Ohlo demoorats on these issues. For years the republicans of Ohlo were Indebted to this class of vo- ters for thelr successive victorles. Bat now, when all the old questions are put out of the way, the republicans will valoly attempt to intice them to a platform of protection and {ll-dlsguls- ed prohibitlon. Tur ordinance regulating the width | Y of tires, drawn op by Clty Attorney Connell and Introduced by Council- man Rodfield at the last meeting of council, ought to pass. Several months ago Tue Bex called the attentlon cf the council to the necessity of some such law, There is an enormous smount of heavy hsullog done In Omahs. Any pavement, however strong, will be worn and crushed and cat into ruts by our heavily losded and narrow tlred wagons and drays, Mr. Redfield’'s ordinance provides that all vehicles of burden carryicg a load of more than & ton in weight shall have a tire of at least three inches In width and where the load Is over two tons the tire shall be four Inches. This Is a ressonsble demsaud, St Louls has law requiring 6 inch tires for a load not exceeding 8,000 pounds; 4 Inch tires for a load not exoeeding 6,000 pounds,sand so on down to 2- inch tires for a load of 2:500 pounds for all four-wheeled veblcles; making similar provisions for drays acd other | two.wheeled vehloles; and making | overloading & misdemeancr punisha. ble by fine. The law will have two good cffects. It will lead to the in. troduction of broader: tires for all baoiicg wagons and it will force teas ters and draymen to haul lighter loads —each of which will relieve the pave ewing thelr editorlal censer pote in wbaolately worthless, front of Mr, Boyd with the other, TH'IM"‘ ments and prolong thelr lasting ca.
