Mullen has already been dismissod by court mar- tial, and Engineer Entwistle has been suspended. This is evidently a grave matter. It is said that the rumors of drunkenness among the officers of that fleet induced Mr. Chandler to demand of Admiral Crosby an investigation and de- tailed report with the above melancholy results, Tuk Philadelphia #ress has figured it all out. It says that as Ohio is the only state holding elections this fall on which the choice of United States senator will turn, should the republicans gain the icontrol of the Ohio legislature, that party will be in a fair way to retain the control of the United States senate until 1885, This gain, with no other changes, would make the republicans and readjustors in a majority of six. The democrats, how- ever, have a fair chance of losing a sena- tor in California, Indiana and Oregon, The only states represented by republi- can senators whose terms expire in 1885, which by the mutations of politics, may fall possibly into democratic hands, are Colorado, Connecticut, Nevada, New York and Pennsylvania, The republi- cans can afford to lose two states with- out impairing their control. At the same time they have a much better chance of recovering the three democratic senator- ships than the democrats have of secur- ing any one of the five states last pamed. Tux postoflice department has issued an important general order regarding the transmission and delivery of newspapers and periodicals to regular subscribers. It had grown to be the custom in many postoffices to regard second-class mail matter as of secondary importance, and the publishers have beenmuch annoyed to find the bulk of their daily mail to con- sist of complaints from subscribers who had not received publications for which they had paid, This fact being brought to the attention of the department caused the issue of an order, which plainly informs postmasters that second- class matter is of at least equal import- ance with the letter mail, and that it should bo treated with equal care by postal clerks. The practice of reading newspapers and periodicals passing through the mails is also ordered to be discontinued. The order iv a timely one, and will largely benefit both pub- lishers and subscribers. Postmasters in country offices will be pleased to learn M is no prohibition of the cus- tom'of reading postal cards. THE 1 THE VALLEY OF THE ELKHORN.

In Cuming and Stanton, in Madison and Antelope and Holt thousands of acres of new land have been broken and every train is bringing new enquirers after cheap homes into one of the most healthful of our state. The towns have kept pace with the progress of the country. fen sections We hear much of miles of ng and hundreds of now barns and of the sales of improved agricul tural implements to farmers whose little homesteads now making them inde pendent of debt and mortgages. Specu- lators still hold large tracts of good land | in some of the counties, but it is coming | rapidly into the market and adding to the | productive powers of the country. At| West Point and Wisner, at Stanton, and Madison, and Oakdale, and Neligh, and | O'Neil, the march of improvement is| prising and energetic citizens in these | towns, as well as in a host of smaller vil- lages, arc working h d to build up the communities in which they reside. | What Tue Bre desires to do in this | connection is not to simply boom apor- lected times far boyond its deserts in past, but to call tho| attontion of its readors clsewhere to the | advantages offered by northorn Nebraska to those secking homes in this state The counties which stretch along the banks of the Elkhorn offer the best of in- ducements to intending scttlers, a black and quick soil, an ample rainfall, and the assurance of excellent harvests. The class of settlers already located in these counties are among the best in our state. Good ropds and bridges, a complete sys- tem of schools, abundant church facili- ties, colleges and seminaries, and a live and wide awake press are found scattered | through the countics, and located in the | towns and villages. Land is cheaper in | proportion to its nearness to the markets than in any other section of Nebraska, and the poorest industrious settler of to- day is certain of being the independent farmer of five years hence. Nebraska's boom to-day is the north country, and no fairer, more fertile, or more available section of that country can be found than the valley of the Elkho SPARED. Mr. Tilden is ouce more in the hands of his friends. This is the milk in the cocoanut of (he late reports of his re- markable mental and physical activity. and explains fully the pains which Mr. Watterson and other visiting statesmen at Graystone took in sproading through the press the news of his complete resto- ration to health. And now comes Mr. John Bigelow, of New York, one of the most confidential intimates of the aged statesman, and publishes a long state- ment in the New York ZUmes in which he asserts that Mr. Tilden will accept with fervor the renomination on the old ticket, that a number of friends of whose movements he is constantly informed are engaged in an effort to secure that nom- nation and that the prospects of the suc- cess of their efforts are more than en- couraging. This is interesting news for Doctor Mil- ler, We call upon him at once to post- pone indefinitely that trip to Europe on the magnificent steamers of the Cunard line. His pass will keep, but the campaign will not await his return, Without the helpful hands of Dr. Miller, a Tilden canvass in these regions would be a barren waste of wind, The party cannot afford to lose those cheering inter- viows with the sage of Greystone which ever and anon decorate the editorial page of the Herald, and combine agri- culture, astronomy, calves and personal remeniscences with political business. 1f the democratio farmers constituency of Nebraska is to be held firmly in line for the old ticket and reform, Dr. Miller must clearly remain even though Queen Victoria and the Empress Eugenie refuse to be comforted. Mr, Tilden and his friends, in whose hands he has so reserv- edly placed himself, cannot spare the Doctor until after March 4th, 1884, The campaign may not be crowned with suc- coss, but the memory of the Oregon busi- ness in 1876, with Cronin's nose as a beas con light, looms up in the dim vista of the past and sheds a ray of hope upon the future. Some scattering electoral votes in the west may be noeded next year after November 2nd, and Dr. Miller must onee more take the helm and steor the bark from Cipher alley into the wished-for haven of the national capitol. Tur Chicago News suggests that if the Gentiles are given half a chanco to see tho ballot boxes in private after the next election in Utah, there will be no ques- tion about the result, There is no dan: ger of that. The members of the Utah commission whose principal duties are to look wise and draw 85,000 a year from the public treasury, are not yet tired of their job. As long as there is any chance for the continuance of the commission it is safe to say that the Utah question will not be entively disposed of. ing connected with the supreme bench to suit the judge's frontier taste.

The result is the same in either case whether Messrs Shelby & Newman have been working for their own pockets or as cappers for Bill Stout and the freight department of the corporation which they serve. Both must have the hide of a rhinoceros if they don’t wince under the remarks heard on every strect corner, denouncing the jobbery of the sandstone swindlersand the bold defiance of public sentiment on the part of the, city council,” < The papers have been very quiet about that heavy purchase of landsin the south- western part of the city, vhich we noted some weeks ago. I understand that pay- ments are now being made on the con- tracts for sale, and the entire transaction will probably be cnm{rleted within a fow weeks. Talking with a prominent citi- zen of Nebraska, who is in a position to know, hegave mo thefollowing particulars: Eighteen hundred acres of Emd are now owned by the syndicate. They extend from Summit, on the Union Pacific track, over across the B. & M, track to the Mis- souri river. ‘I cannot give you full de- tails,” said my informant, ‘‘but the bar- gain’ is now practically completed, and the success of the scheme certainly as- sured. Largo stock yards and packing houses will be erected, and an industry that will employ at least 2,000 workmen will be added to Omaha, That means an increaso of 25,000 to our population within the next three years, There aro several millions of dollars backing the enterprise, and the friendship of both the railroads have boen secured by the man- agors.” Pat O'Hawes has returned from Wash- ington and his glistening shirt bosom and polished boots may be seen almost any evening in front of the Paxton.

Coney Tsland was a rough place then and the pair fell among the sharpers who stripped both of their money and comp- ellod them to borrow enough to get back to New York. It was a now experienco to Spinner and he never forget it. A year lator the panic came and his New York friend went broke. He packed up his grip suck and started for Wash- ington to get a job in ono of the depart- ments and made his first call on the treasurer, *‘Spinner,” said he, ‘“‘I'm dend busted and have got to get & job.” ““Hum,” said the treasurer, “I'd liko to i ou o desk but these civil service service rules require an examination, Take this note in to Boutwell and he will give you an order for examination.” So the applicant walked returned to Spinner with note in his hand. *“Well” T, “Jim, what do you know about geog raphy.

The following we clip from the Lincoln Journal of July 8th: Lincoln and thence to points in Kansas, This enterprise the Union Pacific nipped a portion of the territory which the other road had intended to occupy. Then came the incorporation of the| Omaha & Northwestern which on its face was another branch of the Union Pacific. This road if built, will have the effect to cut off o large proportion of Fremont's wholesale trade. Fearing this the Fre- mont capitalists, as indicated in the item above, have organized a company which propose building a road through one of the richest portions of the Union Pacific territory.
