We would like to have the same kind of & coal day in Omaha. Some 'Washington officers think that Major Nickerson will never be tried by a court martial for obtaining a divorce by fraud from} his first wife. They predict that he will keep himself hid until no in- terest is longer felt in his case. The le- gal right of the secretary of war to stop Major Nickerson's pay is questioned, and the opinion is held that unless he is court martialed he can at any time collect it by ‘bringing suit for it. Marsuar Gurarie has made his first complaint against citizens for using tho alloys as garbage heaps. Thia is a step in the right direction. Mr. Guthrie can do no better work just at present than in prosecuting his inquiries into viola- tions of the city ordinances in the way of cluttering up our alleys with filth and vefuse. ‘There is another practico to which the marshal's attention might be called. That is the emptying of buer dregs into the street gitters in front of #aloons. ! Se——— Tv is a bad year for the caucus. Mr. Rollins, of New Hampshire, is the last man to discover it. Although the noto- rious railroad lobbyist is the caucus choice and apparently the Chandler choice, and presumably the Administra- tion choice for senatbr, there appears to be a decided minority of the New Hamp- shire republicans who do not want him. The time is coming when the caucus must mean something more than a defi- ance of party opinion or cease to exist as a political power. ee———— Now that the Ohio democrats have found their leader in Judge -Hoadley the campaign in the Buckeye state may be said to haye opened in earnest. ' To a man up a tree, it looks very much as if Judge Hoadley will have a. walk-awiy.

While the Omaha musical festival will not compare with those of ‘which larger and wealthier eastern cities have boasted, it will be remarkable as the first of its kind in Nebraska. The excellent concerts of the last Swengerfest ate not forgotten; but the orchestraffof the Sangerfest was crude and the various societies sahg together without the previ- ous training vequisite for geod choral singing. Mr, Thomas brings with him an orchestra which Rubenstein the great composer once enthusiastically declared was equalled only by that of the Pails Conservatoirs, Trained under his in- incomparable leadership aud fired by his own_enthusinsm in art, we can promise our people who have never listened to its rendering of the world's tone masters, u treat wh novel ay it will be delightful and _ Classical music, tisfying. when the taste has once been acquired, never palls. The works of such composers as Beethoven, Bach, Handel, Wagner and Brahius can- not get old. Like the paintings of the old masters whose coloring increases in softness, and whose outlines delight the artistic mind as greatly now as they did when they first appeared on canvass and fresco, so the noble and grand com- positions of the great tone masters edu- cate and elevate each succeeding genera- tion, when interpreted by men who join to a taste for music, a skill in making others appreciate and love what they themselves admire. ANOTHER RAILROAD DECISION. A notable railroad decision was ren- dered the other day in the United States districtcourtfor Colorado. The factsupon which the case rested are substantially as follows: The Denver & New Orleans and the Denver & Rio Grande have par- allel lines of road from Denver to Pueblo, connecting at the latter place with the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe. A con- tract was made between the Denver & Rio Grande and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe whereby the latter agreed to do all ita “‘through” business to Denver with the former at certain special rates. The Denver & New Orleans asked for the same kind of a contract as to rates on Denver business, which was refused. An action was then brought to compel the Atchison, Topcka & Santa Fe to exchange traffic with the Denver and New Orleans on the same terms accorded to the Denver & Rio Grande; and Judge McCrary decided in effect that it must be done, a decree being subsequently issued by Judge Hal- lott to that end. This decree, it appears, was evaded and disobeyed; and accord- ingly the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe company was brought again into court on acharge of contempt. Thé result was that fines were imposed to the amount of 8400 for the acts complained of, and an order entered requiring restitution to be made to the Denver & New Orleans in such sum as & master in chancery shall find to be just and suffici In rendering his decision Judge Hallet 1aid down some sound precepts upon the subject of railroad combination. He deelared that all combinations to prevent competition and obstruct the interests of commerce through the building of new roads “‘are nothing more or less than conspiracies” againat’ the public welfare and convenience, and, therefore, illegal and void. «The court enunciated the broad principle that projects for the suppression of competition are as unauthorized and pernicious as schemes-of discrimination and extortion and as contrary to the spirit of the law as laid down for the common carrier. *‘It is not consistent with the public interest, or with common right,” says Judge Hallett, “that o railroad company should be per- mitted 80 to use its privileges”—that is to say, its common carrier franchise—‘as to secure to itself superior and exclusive advantages on other lines of transporta- tion,” or, oppositely, to give such supo- rior and exclusive advantages to other companies on its own line. In short, a ommon carrier is bound to avoid every rprp4u or appearatice of wmonopoly, It nust not only perform service for indi- vidual patrons on equal and reasonable terms, but it must refrain from obstruct- ing rival enterprises that look to a divis- ion of its own traffic and a possible diminu- tion of its own rates of compensation, This decision i8 highly important, Tt gives evidence that the courts will not only exert their authority for the settle- ment of the relative rights of the rail- roads and the people, but will also inter- fere between different railroads and com- pel them to deal with one another on uni- form and equitable terms. TrERE are some complaints of the slowneas of, the paving contractors, and several porsons who do not stop to con- sider the matter, are growling loudly over the delays in completing Tenth and Douglas streets. They tell us that two months have gone since paving opera. itons were begun, and that less than three blocks are completed on each street. This is true, but grading, con- creting and paving cannot be carried on in the rain with any degree of safety. Since May dpened, we have had an aver- age of three rainy days a week, and much time has been lost in baling out the excavations after storms, and: waiting for the mud to dry before laying the foundations. The consequence has been that more than half the time has been lost in delays which could not have been foreseen or avoided by the paving contrac- tors. It is only fair to take this into consideration when growling about the slowness with which pavements are being laidinOmaba, TuAT blatant Dblatherskite, Dennis Kearney, had the impudénce te enter a personal protest before the California railroad commission against the pruposed reduction of freight and passenger rates on the Central and ' Southern Pucific roads, Dennis insisted that he appeared on behalf of California workingmen who were interested in keeping up exorbitant freight and passenger tolls which insured them high wages. Dennis evidently re- presents the California monopolists n good deal more than he docs the working- men who have long since lost faith in him. But the blatant blatherskite insists that he is an anti-monupolist, and announced on the San Francisco sand lots last Sunday that ho was going to the national anti-monopoly Chicago, to represent the Puacifie coast, — Tug centennial celebration at New Windsor, New York, of breaking camp by Washington's army at the termination of hostilities with Great Britain a nen. tury ago, took place yesterday. The celebration was in every way befitting the great event. convention at | OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. Difficulties thicken around Mr. Glad- stone’s government, The conflict within the Liberal party, joined to the disor- ganized opposition without, are dragging along a parliamentary session, which, since the close of winter, has been barren of all results except ceaseloss contentions and Jong continued obstruction. on the part of the minority. So little progress has been made that another conference of the Liberal party is suggested. The new rules of procedure have failed to the bills are behind hand in committee and even the Radicals are said to admit the entire par- alysis of legislation, and blame the gov- ernment for its want of tact and firm- ness. If we would seek the cause of Mr, Gladstone’s embarrassment we must go check obstruction, all deeper than mere personal wrangles be- tween party leaders, The strugglo is really between the Radical and Whig elements of Liberalism, which have been heretofore kept together only by the strong personal influence of the premier. It is the Whig faction which, taking fright at the extreme radical programme of Mr. Chamberlain, which laid down universal suffrage, and disestablishment as cardinal principles of Radicalism, is vainly trying to stem the tide of radi- cal reform in Liberalism and to keep within the party lines while opposing the party tendency. This decision in the Liberal ranks has been shrowdly taken advantage of by the Conservatives, and Lord George Hamilton has proposed a scheme for the sale of Trish landlotds’ estates to the government, which in con- nection with the tenants’ compensation bill, will split the landholding and noble section of the Liberal party still wider apart from the growing Liberal wing, 1t is hinted that one result of Lord Hamil- ton's bill will be s coalition between the duke of Argyle and his Whig following, and Lord Salisbury, the Conservative leader, against it. Meanwhile the Rad- ical faction is more active and aggressive daily, and Mr. Chamberlain is_holding public meetings to discuss the pro- universal suffrage and church ishment. Here are elements of on which may be postponed until Mr. Gladstohe's death or retirement, if that event occurs soon, but which will not wait longer. The future party division in England will be between the representatives of the people on the one side and the hereditary landholdi families on the other, and_ this issue w separate the sections of the present Lib- eral party more widely than it is now separated from the Conservatives. he most obvious readjustment of parties, a8 a result of this division, is a secession of the Whig clement to the Conserva- tive party, whilo the Radicals, with per- haps the aid of some young noblemen like Sir Charles Dilke, shall form an ag- gressive and determined opposition, and grow into the the great reform party of the future. During the week Lord Randolph Oliirchill resuniod hin attacks upon the ministry for its Egyptian policy, and insti- tuted an__ enquiry into the responsibility for the burning of Alexandria, in which he directly charged the guilt upon the Khedive, the government refusing to sat- isfy the tory cur Mr. Bright was also attacked is Birmingham speech, in which he claimed that an alliance had been formed between the conservatives and Trish rebels, but a resolution of con- sure was defeated in parliament by strict party vote in which Mr, Gladstone spoke personally in Mr. Bright's defense. The queen’s health continues in a pre- carious state, but rumors of her abdica- tion have stirred her majesty to a show ty in_order to disprove their foundation. Thetaint of insanity which runs in the Hanover blood is said to be beginning to show itself in the unsettled melancholy that has taken possession of Queen Victoria, No one who knows the queen has any idea that she will end her reign_in any way than as a monarch, Nothing is farther from the queen’smind than abdication, and the Prince of Wales will only put on the full robes of royalty at his mother's death. Saturday's theatre horror at Sunderland, in_which 187 chil- dren lost their lives, in still the subject of comment in London, where the architect of the hall and the manager are both se- verely blamed for criminal negligence. France seems to be hurrying into war with China with reckless foolha A special telegram asserts that the Fi government has sent China an ultima- tum domanding that she should abandon all claims to Annam on pain of a declara- tion of war. Furthermore, it is asserted that Bismagck is regarded by the Chinese government us a warm friend, and that, while China will avoid war if possible, sho will not purchase peace at the cost of dishonor. That France is resolved upon a war with China is now evident, if the above cable is true, and no evidence is needed to prove that Bismarck will look with pleasure upon the wasting of French resources in & miserablo and profitless foreign war. While it need mot be supposed this sentiment has any- thing to do’ with the chaucel- lor's politieal course, he will natur- ally wish all possible success to the Chinese, for the longer they can prolong the struggle the more injury they can in- flict upon France. Doubtless he is en- Tesist the protensions of France, and when it is remembered that he can at any moment Ya.-k a quarrel with France con- cerning the man-of-war which a German tirm is building for China, the rashness of the French in going to war with China becomes evident. Other advices from Paris assert that President Grevy is much opposed to taking extreme measures against Annam, fearing the menace to al forei in China which would cer- tainly follow.

Herr Bennigsen is a Joung man, barely fifty-cight, but he has een for twenty-five years struggling to get parliamentary government in a unit- ed Germany. The odds were great, ¢ difficulties many; but nmrmf them all it probably never occurred to him to range the fact that when he Jhad got his Ger- many, his constitution, his federal sys- tem and his German and Prussian liaments, he would throw up his seat in both because in neither is he able to rally a decent working opposition against a powerful minister, The National Liber- al party Herr Bennigsen led scemed at one time certain to reach power; but it split and dwindled and died away until its best leader gives up in despair. Horr Bennigsen's act has made an ex- traordinary sensation in Germany, and, coming with Bismarck’s deliberate un- conditional surrender to the Vatican, has attracted wide attention here; but it is less remarkable of itself than as a part of the Liberal collapse in Europe. The Mancini-Depretis ministry has just been remodelled by kicking out two of its leading Liberals. Gambetta sank under the apparently hopeless task of governing through a French chamber elocted by districts, and the republic seems to be running down like an unwound clock. Count 1stria, has been forced f those concessions to ality which must upset that neat machine, the dual Austro-Hun- garian monopoly. As the Tories passed the reform bill in 1867-8, a stronger measure than_the Lib- erals could carry, so they lead the Liber- als now in meeting the land league pro- gramme of a peasant proprietary with a Em[mml which is perhaps too elaborate, ut whose introduction makes sure the ultimate object of the league in this direc- tion, Mr. Gladstone had no choice but to nccept, not the scheme as laid out, but the essential part of it, and an act of parliament to that effect will be ordained, though perhaps not until a Tory govern. ment has succeeded to Mr. Gladstonc’s. It is the custom of the English Tovies to triumph on measures they have bor- rowed from their antagonists—a pecul- inrity of British politics as yet unknown in this country, although' there have been some experiments in that direction. W. H. Smith foreshadowed a good while ago this action of Lord George Hamil- ton, and had a proposition to make which the Phenix park murders de- layed. Lord George, who is the third son of the Duke of Abercorn (lately Tory viceroy of Ireland), makes this the opportunity of his public life, and gets both personal and party distinction by a uimille acceptance of the Irish gospel ac- cording to Parnell, The Marquis of Lorne has taken his Toave ¢ af Jt69 Cawiiin fparliament, and Lord Lansdowne has been selected as his successor in the viceroyalty. It is im- possible to speak of Lord Lorne as a con- spicuous success in the position he vacates this year. What success he has had, he has owed rather to hisrank as the Queen’s son-in-law than to any display of person- al ability. He hus shown nothing of Earl Dufferin’s skill in keeping the Can- adians amused by saying clever though kindly things at our expense, and in making them pleased with themselves. That was not _the highest style of gov- ernment, but®it was somewhat better than the frigid and fastidious officialism of his successor. Italy’s mode of seeking peace by pre- paring for war is to strenghten her naval forces, She owns the Italia, the largest iron-clad afloat, and the other day she launched at Leghorn the Lepanto, an ex- act duplicate. This gives her four first- class sea-going twrret ships. Two of these are armed with 100-ton guns; but her new ships are to have still largex ones, and a good deal of money will be spent simply in_experimenting. = English work-shops” mainly reap the benefit of these vast outlays of money. Italy's new importance as a member of the Ger- man-Austrian_party adds significance to the building up of a naval power in the Mediterranean, The life of & Turkish sultan is brief and full of trouble. The reigning monarch has had more than his share of affliction. All his fairest European provinces have been wrested from him one by one and the remainder of his dominions is held by a slender band of authority. The rench have taken Tunis, over which he claimed suzerainty, and the English aro in possession of 13' pt. Asia Minor is in a disturbed condition—none of the re- forms, pledged by the treaty of Berlin, have been inaugurated. The Kurds are in frequent insurrection, and Armenia is in danger any moment of passing into the possession of Russia, who by means of the railroadsrecently constructed in the Caucasus can concentrate 150,000 troops on that frontier at a moment's notice.
