Floods, cyclones and hail storms have made afl rs lively in these parts since the opening of the year, Trknk are ronewed rumors of an impending strike of the tele- egraph operators. Tt s sai that there are 20,000 operators in this country, of which 5,000 are commercial and 15,000 railroad operators, At least 16,000 are members in good standing of the Telographers Brotherhood A CORRESPONDENT, in another column, gives an interesting account of Con- gressman Valentine's latest star route ex- ploit in the Elkhorn valley. If Mr. Valentine did not happen to be travelling in a special car over the Union and Cen- tral Pacific railroads, explanations would be in order from that recent convert t anti-monopoly and anti-jobbery. Tug attempt of the Herald to hold a wake over Postmaster Hall will fail. The action of Postmaster Gresham in promptly suspending Mr. Hall and ap- pointing a successor the moment his at- tention was called to the condition of affairs in the Omaha postoffice is cordially approved by our merchants and the lead- ing patrons of the postofficein this city. Senator Manderson has been overwhelmed with complaints of the inefliciency of the postmaster and the mismanage- ment of the mails at this point, These complaints have come from our banks, our nowspapers and large whole- sale houses generally. It is the height of hypocrisy in the editor of the Herald to pretend that the Omaha postmaster has been a competent official or that he has not shamefully neglected his duties. The fact is too notorious for successful denial, and Dr. Miller only makes a laughing stock of himself when he at- tempts to persuade his readers that he knows more about the matter than the general public, Tue New York civil service reform commissioners are now engaged in making a classification of the civil service of the state, and investigating its condition, tenure, method of appointment, and character. The national civil service commission are about ready to begi active operations, and the dawn of the new era of reform is apparently near at hand. It is safe to say that the results of meither ~ of these - reforming agencies will be satisfactory to their supporters. Both were created as a sop for public sentiment. Their authority is too restricted to se- cure the wide sweeping reform which they now contemplate. In New York the five thousand office holders, and the employes of the various city bureaus are beyond their reach, while the few politi- cians and clerks who hold down chairs at Albany ave fortified by influences which are stronger than the will or the wish of any non-partisan commission. A fow vacancies may be filled by ex- amination, and their commissioners and examiner will draw hand- some salavies. But these are likely to be the net results of civil service reform in New York under the new regime, 8o far as the national civil service re- form commiusion is concerned there is no reason to expect any radical changes among Federal officeholders through, the operation of the new regulations, Out of 100,000 employes in the civil service, less than 10,000 are affected by the law. These comprise the clerks in the depart- ments and employes in custom houses and postoffices employing fifty men. The officeholders who can bring disgrace upon the civil service through inefficiency and political scullduggery are secure against removal and can snap their fingers at the board. The new civil service reform law should have been called a bill for testing the edugation of clerks, laborers and me- OMAHA BEE. | chargeable with the | paved, each ot GROUNDS POR A VETO, Before the council ean sandstone upon the tax paycers of any paving district, they must by ordinance define the depth to which the property adjacent to that improvement shall be in what Iots in the | cost, and proportion the owners of the paving district are to have designating the a choice in material for paving.

Statutos of 1883, p. 105, Now the lain intentof the law 1s this: | The mayor and council acting conjointly by ordinance have the power to establish paving districts. These districts should | be made up of lots notless in dimensions than the respective lots as platted on the | recognized map. In other wordson the business stroots running east and west cach lot is 66 feet front by 132 feet deep. On the business streets running north and south each lot is 132 feet front and 66 feet doep. The mayor and council at their discretion have the power to estab- lish subdivisions in the paving districts and to extend the assessments beyond the depth of such lots if in their judgment it is equitable. Now the mayor and council can only exercise the powers conferred upon them conjuintly, by an ordinance enacted in due form and adopted by a majority of the council. The mayor and council have so far failed to exercise this power. Con- requently the council was in duty bound to contract for the material petitioned for by a majority of the owners of lots abutting en the cross streets ordered paved. The language of the law is very plamn and specific. ‘Whenever the owners of 1ots or lands abutting upon the streets or alleys within any paving district representing a ma- jority of feet front thereon shall petition the council to pave, repave, or macadam such streets or alleys, it shall be the duty of the council to pave, re- pave or macadam the same, and in all cases of paving, repaving, or macadam- izing thero shall be used such material as such majority of owners shall determine : Provided, The council shall be d in writing by said owners of such dotermination within thirty days, next after the passage and approval of the or- dinance ordering such paving, repaving or macadamizing.—[Statutes of 1883, p. 101, It is admitted that on all the cross stroots excepting Fourteenth street a majority of owners of feet front did des- ignate the material to be used. City Attorney Connell’s ruling as to the tax- ing of an incrensed area cannot be ap- plied as long as the mayor and council have not definitely fixed . the limit by or- dinance. Leaving aside the outrage at- tempted by the council in selecting a material that the people have remon- strated against, Mayor Chase cannot consistently approve an ordinance that is in violation of the spirit and letter of the charter, Wo are told that the council have discovered their blunder and pro- pose to remedy it by passing an ordinance establishing the taxable boundaries with- in the paving districts. Such an ordi- nance cannot make valid an ordinance that was passed illegally. Another very strong reason for a voto is the fact that the ordinance directs the Mayor and board of public works to en- tor into paving contracts for larger sum than is at the disposal of the city for pay- ing purposes. Contracts may be let le- gally for paving the alleys, entire cost is levied upon property own- ers. But the city cannot legally contract for work that exceeds in cost the amount of bonds specifically voted for it, —eee because the Waes the Kansas railroad bill was pending in the logislature, the railway managers declared that if it passed and became & law not a mile of would be consteucted in year, When anti-monopoly legislation was broached at Lincoln last winter, Messrs, Kimball and Holdredge, through their attorneys threatened the same calamity in case of the passage of a bill regulating freight and passenger rates. The law passed in Kansas and failed of passage in Nebraska, but the recently printed statistics of railroad construction show that mile after mile of new rail- roads have been built in Kansas while not a rod of main track has been laid in our own state. Some time the people railroad Kansas this {of eharges for crimes dand es- fis generally followed by sentence [ 1lges’ [ convicted, would be given no opportunity ‘lu re lthe army wh congider and take | . | court-martial | ful wan in that position, Should a v | ions, and he would be as courteous Tllh ])AILY BI‘ l‘"'()\L\Il \ l\()\])f\\ and will learn that corpor- ) permit the personal spite of their agents to stand in the light of their own As long lines of railroad promise good returns on elf interest a8 new the capital necessary o construct them | plete a system they will continue to be built.

The friends of ox-Pay- | master Wasson are now attempting to | secure a commutation of his sentence, and the New York FEvening Post has published the names of 30 officers whose sentences of dismissal from the army from March, 1879, to January, 1881, have been commuted to moderate or briof suspension from duty, followed by an early remission of even that mild form of punishment. officers ranged in rank from lieutenant to These second licutenant colonel, and their offenses ran the gamut from simple drunkenness on duty to conduct unbe- coming a gentleman, dishonesty, cruelty to enlisted men and assaulting a crippled fellow-ofticer. 1t is one of the curses of the service that political and family in- fluence frequently secures the retention of the worst men in the army, even after they have brought contempt upon them- selves, disgrace upon their profession and disgust amongg thoir messmates. The navy has suffored in the same way, until it is noexaggeration to say that an officer who resigned voluntarily, with a thor- oughly honorable record, would have far greater difficulty in gotting reinstated in the navy than one who had been dismiss- od for drunkenness, neglect of duty or some other scandalous fault, Horace Mullan, lately dismissed by sentence of courtmartial, although notoriously a the first thing that will be heard of him next December will be as a petitioner for raiustatement, with afairshow of succoss. What wonder is it that officers in the army and navy who take a pri o in pre- serving the honor of their calling, test loudly agaiust being compelled to associate with men who have been con- victed of swindling and drunkenness and authorities at Washington in such in- stances is subversive of all discipline and casts unwarranted disgrace upon both branches of the service. Let it once be understood that the sentence of a court martial when in accordance with the reg- | ulations and applicable to the findings of the court and which has been approved by the department commander wilk not | bo reversed and we shall have fower seandals in the army and navy.
