THE BEE BUBLISHING C0., PROPS. E. ROSEWATER, Editor. A 75,000 praze in the lottery has been drawn by alicutenant in the army. This beats poker playing by a very large ma- jority. Tur khedive of Tgypt who bravely visited Cairo to inspect the stricken city is prostrated with cholera and will prob- ably die. Kixe KanAakava offers his royal yacht for sale. The royal larder has been run- ning low since the coronation which ate up two years' revenue. Crusuep banana is a new color. If it is the color of the stars aman sces after he has accidentally crushed a banana with his feet, the tint must be very brilliant. Oscar WiLpg, who has been sailing into America in his lectures in England, will sail for America again on August 14th. Mr. Wilde will discover that the same golden crop cannot be cut twice. Some one has estimated that the an- thracite coal fields will last 300 years, This is good news for western railroads whose high tariffs make hard coal in Ne- braska one of the luxuries of life. Tue interesting letters from the north oountry that have appeared in Tir Brx over the signature of “‘Garnet” were written by Mr. Clement Chase of this city, who has decided to adopt journal- ism as a profession. Mr. Chase has laid an excellent foundation for future suc- cess. Tue New york Sun is still fighting R. B. Hayes w.th an energy which indicates that there is a sad dearth of editorial topics just now. Owing to the strike the telegraph isn’t bringing much news, and at best in summer startling topics are scarce. But what does the Sun want done with R. B. Hayes! Tak Chicago board of trade, the New Yerk board of trade and transportation, and a half a score of other commercial bodies have passed resolutions setting forth that business has been stopped long enough and urging a settlement of the differences between the men and the ‘Western Union by arbitration. Tt has got to come sooner or later. Berux HArR1s is a heroine and martyr in the eyes of the Mormons, She is con- fined in the penitentiary, near Salt Lake City, where she is daily visited by men and women high in the church, who con- tinually exhort her to hold firm and not betray her Savieur into the hands of the Gentiles. In the Mormon belief a woman's husband is her only Saviour, and she cannot be raised after death ex- copt through him. Belle's case is a test one under the Edmunds law, Several years ago a saint named Clarence Merrill took her for his third wife. She has borne two children, whose paternity has never been questioned. Merrill is being prosecuted for polygamy. Belle Harris was summoned as & witness, Were you ever married? She refused to answer quesitions as to her marriage. Conse- quently she was adjudged guilty of con- tempt of court and sentenced to pay a fine of $25; also to be imprisoned until she should become a tractable witness. C———— Seorerary Foraxk has issueda call for $31,000,000 of the 3} per cents. An As- nociated Press dispatch from Washington which brings this information adds that the call has been mnecessitated by esti- mates 0f the treasury department, whicl indicate another heavy surplus at the end of the present fiscal year, This is as we predicted, Under the workings of the new tariff and tax law the revenue will be very little decreased, For the past month the customs duties have ex- ceeded those of June. Internal revenue chiefs estimate that the reduction of re- oceipts in their departments cannot ex- ocoed $30,000,000 by the end of the year. In other words, in spite of promises and estimates, the treasury surplus on July 1, 1884, is likely to be morn than $90,000,- 000. If subsequent developments bear out these figures, the democratic congress will be brought face to face with the same problom with which the last repub- lican congress wrestled. Reduction of taxation will again be a prominent issue and as the country is not prepared to make further concessions to the distil- lers and tobacco manufacturers, a reduc- tion in the tarifl must once more be con- sidered. For this reason the contest for the speakership assumes a national import ance. Mr. Randall’s candidacy is as- suredly in the interests of the high tariff protectionists. Mr. Carlisle represents the low tariff democracy. In selecting the committee on ways and means, the speuker of the vext congress will be able to shupe legislation on this important question. For this reason Mr, Carlisle’s ~ will receive the cordial sup. ‘all ‘'who are in favor of further of national taxation and a posa INDING THE STRIK The great telegraph strike is causing a great amomnt of inconvenience to bus iness men throughout the country, and there are significant hints that if some Tt has been sug gested that a new line of telegraph con ter in its own hanc necting the principal cities of the country conuld be constructed in three months if the work were pushed with the ut most energy. The claim is made that when the cheapness and facility with which poles and wires can he put up are considered there ought to be no difficulty in securing the necessary capital for a new company that would put it out of the power of the Western Union monop- oly and its adjuncts to control the tele- graphic intercouse of the people. Of the new there course if construct- diffi- culty in obtaining at once skilled opera- tors at fair rates of wages. In favor of such a company is the con- sideration that it would not be weighed down with the enormous load of watered stock which the Western Union is com- pelled to earry. Sinco the organization of the Western Union it has purchased franchises of rival companies for which it has issued upward of £50,000,- 000 of stock, not much more than one- line is ed at once will be no fifth of which represented an actual investment of capital. It is estimated, in short, that more than half of the Western Union’s 880,000,000 of stock is water. 1t is estimated, and with good reason, that if upon this 880,000,000 of nominal capital tho Western Union has been able to pay a dividend of 3 per cent. after paying all expenses of operating and ex- tending lines, a new company, organized on a solid basis, without any water in its stock, could pay handsome dividends and good wages to its employos, and that whether on the capital plan or on the co- operative plan of giving the operators a share in the undertaking, such a com- pany could not fail to secure an adequate return for its investmont. The suggestion is not likely to be carried out, but the earnestness with with which it is urged by several of the leading papers east shows how thorough- ly aroused the public has become to the dangers which threaten it from the con- trol of the entire telegraphic system of the country by a single corporation. Such a plan as that proposed might re- liove matters for a short time, but sooner or later the new line would fall into the hands of the Western Union. The only practical solution of the prob- lem is the ownership of the entire tele- graphic system by the government. A postal telegraph system with graded classes of employes and good wages for all employed would give the country what it has never yet had, cheap tele- graphy at uniform rates with impartial service and perfect immunity from strikes. Tux Indianapolis Journal publishes a bit of romance connected with the late Gen. Ord, which it says is well known in the army. The lale general was a grand- son of George IV, and Mra. Fitzherbert. His father, James Ord, son of that mor- ganatic marriage, was raised in the faith of his mother, and was, like his son, a Roman Catholic. James Ord, when a boy, was sent to France to be educated, and was afterward brought by his tutor to Georgetown college, where he became a professor. He took part in the war of 1812, serving as captain. He was long a clerk at Washington, and died in 1872 or 1873. He assumed the name of Ord, which was that of his tutor, from a desire to avoid unpleasant notoriety, Thus the acion of a royal line was given a glorious name, although an assumed one, to adorn the pages of American history. OTH. LANDS THAN OURS. Chambord has recovered, the excite- ment over the Tamative affair has subsi- ded, the Buez Canal disagreement has been smoothed over by Mr, Gladstone's refusal to press the matter before the commons and the steady advance of the cholera towards the Mediterranean has | of the German people suffered a crushing defeat, and Germany is handed over to a conservative-clorical allisnce which, under | Bismarck’s direction, is master of the | field, wnd will remainso for several weeks compromise is not soon effected, the|to come. The passing of the budget public will be compelled to take the mat- |ahead of the regular time, although fact, of the con- formally constitutional, is, in an attack on the spirit stitution, and, so the victory wh Bismarck has achieved was by the help The greater part of the perceiving that they were a helpless minority, joined the supporters of the clericals. Liberals, of the government and postponed some of the most impoertant items of expense, #0 that the chancellor is bound to con- vene the reichstag at the beginning of next year to submit to it a supplementary budget. Nevertheless, the defeat of the reichstag is overwhelming, as, instead of taking up the oudgels, it yielded to the harsh demands of Bismarck. Even the fact that he won his success by a great sacrifice, introducing the imperial influ- ence and wishes into party strife, cannot be pleaded as an offset against the real loss of dignity and authority which the reichstag has suffered bylits meck sub- servience, The worst defeat, however, of all is Intest logislation on the relations of the Prussian government with Rome and the Catholic church. The advances made by Bismarck would be incomprehensiblo if his endeavors to gain the support of o powerful party did mot control all his political actions. It is more than strange that so promi- nent a statesman as the chancellor, led by the desire to subject everything to his ictates, disdainfully rejected the ser- vices and assistance of those who were enger to cooperate with him, and is now trying to win over to his side a party whose interests centre in Rome and in the principles of the Roman Catholic church. In the first ten years after the establish- ment of the north German union and the empire, he carried every measure by the help of the thoroughly unselfish national liberals (numbering from 150 to 180), and of a few so-called free conservatives. Since 1879 Bismarck has only exception. ally succeeded in carrying through his measures with the assistance of the Ul- tramontanes, who, like the clover trades- men, make their terms beforehand, and who have an advantage over him in the fact that he can no longer fall back on the liberals, who, on the contrary, fight him like one man, while the conservatives alone are mentally and numerically too weak. Thus the same statesman wf;o in former years declared Windthorst an in- triguing enemy of his_country, and sol- emnly protested that he would never go to Canossa, has now proceeded further south on the road to Rome, and has jnst voluntarily, at least, if not cheerfully, passed under the Caudine forks. The premier has again bent before the gathering storm. On Tuesday Mr. Gladstone announced in the House of Commons that he would ask parliament ot its present session to ratify the agree- ment made with De Lesseps regardin; the new Suez canal, This was a virt acknowledgment that the government would have been beaten on the question and is only one of many signs of the weakness of the party of which the remier is the head. The tie which inds ther the Whig and Radical wings of liberalism in England is daily growing weaker and it is growing plainer that even Mr. Giladstone's powerful per- sonal influence cannot much longer make oil and water mix. The Radieal faction as it grows stronger presses more strongly “fio“ the premier for greater recognition The Whigs now control more than half the places in the cabinet and though weak in the country maintain a consider- able strength in the commons. Havin, undertaken to dictate the home an foreign policy of the government under threats of mutiny 1t will not be remark- samo weapons at no distant day in the hands of their radical allies. Ireland is quieting down. Since the execution of the invincibles there has buen very little crime in Ireland. Dur- ing the month of June there were only fourteen agrarian outrages. At several of the recent assizes there were no crimi- nal cases on trial. The high sheriff of Waterford reported to the judges of the Munster circuit that he not a crimi- nal in either the city or county jail. In Louth the judge was presented with white gloves as a token of maiden as- sizes. In those cases that were et for trial the crime dated back to the time when the invincibles flourished, There was a plentiful crop of informers in all such cases and convictions were readily obtained. It is notable that most of those charged with agrarian crime have never had any agrarian interests, They placed all Europe under quarantine. This, in short, is the condensed budget of European news for the week. The rapid recoveryof theCount de Chambord, has arousod suspigions that his late ill- ness was purposely exaggerated. There are those who discern in the frequent re- ports from Frohsdorf an attempt to bring the name and claims of the exiled Bourbon once more prominently before the French people. Thehostile feeling towards England which was aroused among all classes of the French people by the Engish occupation of Egypt had been still further intensified by the Tamative offair, the English attitude in regard to French pretentions in Africa and the negotiations regarding the building of the second Suez Canal. Mr, De Lesseps has rolieved Mr. Glad- stone of some embarrassments in the last mentioned dificulty by cheerfully releasing him from his promises of financial aid, and the an- nouancement that French capitalists stand ready to push the enterprise of & second canal through to a speedy completion. The attitude, however, of the commons in questioning the validity of the mon- opoly of the French company has caused much raucor in Parisian diplomatic and financial circles, and still further intensi- fied the hostile feeling which is mani- fested on the part of the French republic towards the English people. The Prussian landtag has closed its wsession, following by some weeks the ad- journment of the German reichstag, which sat for fourteon months. The re- sults of the work of the two bodies have been humiliating in the extreme. All that is cherished by the liberal element are mostly reckless spirits of the towns— roughs; and would be called hoodlums and deadbeats in this country. The cholera is steadily increasing. All Egypt is now practically infected with the contagion and the luckless khedive lies at the point of death at Alexandria. In Cairo the death roll has mounted to 500 deaths a day. Suez and Port Said are also affected. There are reports that the disease has crossed the Mediter- ranean and that cholera has broken out in the Bulgarian provinces,” while two isolated cases have appeared om the Lon- don docks. The French cabinet has a very serious issue prosunted to it in the decreasing re- ceipts of the French exchequer. For years the mceiru steadily exceeded the estimates, until it began w seem ag if there was no limit either to the prosperi- ty of France or her power to bear public burdens. Disbursements were as clastic as the receipts; year by year a floating debt has accumulated to be funded, trans- ferred or concealed by some one of the many vicions methods of French bud- gets, until last wintor Leon Say showed that' the edge of something like national bankruptey had been reached. A halt was called in prospective expenditures, the great schemes of railroad construction and internal improvements were ' post- poned and the debt refunded, but the ordinary outlay remains upon a acale which makes the deficit in receipts for the first six months of 1883 a most seri- ous matter, The census of Egypt, bogun last yoar by Sir Aukland Colvin and just complet- ed, shows the population of ‘the country to be 6,008,230 of plundered wretches. Cairo has a population of 368,108; Alex- andri ncluding its suburbs, 208,775; Port Said, 16,600; Suez,” 10,913: Tantah, 13,726; Mansourah, 206,784; Ragazig, 19, 040; Rosetta, 16,601;. What the p‘o.tu lation will be when the plague finishes its ravages Heaven only knows; but it nuk-.&u heart sick to contemplate it. And yet life in Egypt under the squeez: able if they are confronted with the |bl ing, torturing process of the French and British bondholders can hardly be warth iving. The British tories are quite confident that the corrupt practices act will not revent bribery in English constituencies and will not tend to keop rich men of parliament. One of the tory org: says: ‘It would not say much for the brains, tnough it might be creditable to the morals, of any busy public man in a medium sized boroughif with £5,000 and no questions asked he could not, even at short notice, secure an_ election against any buta popular candidate who buttoned his purse— even with the corrupt practices actin full swing.” The tories do not en- tertain very complimentary opinions of the average English voter's political hon- esty and public morality. France is dotermined to pursue its re- cent colonial policy. The Jowrnal des Debats, affecting not to know that much of the recent unpleasantness between France and England has arisen out of France's colonial designs and the pros- pect that they might interfere with En- gland's future schemes, intimates that the British government ought to bo satis- fied that so pacific a minister as Wad- dington has been appointed to London, It naively says: “‘France can then pur- sue her colonial policy China has forbidden the exportation of live stock to feed tho French troops now embarking for Tonquin, and great is the wrath of the French ther oy England, too, is aggrieved becauso an Englishman had an interest in the spgeulation. Probably China will back down gracefully and say that she mercly desired to pro- tect Tonquin from the foot and mouth disease, It is & pleasure to record the defeat by the Chilians of the band of land pirates in Peru known as the Monteneros, under Caceres. They are of the class to whom no quarter should be given, and the sooner they are exterminated the sooner there will be hope of peace, not_only for the Chilians, but for the Peruvians themselves, citerated Cardinal McCabe on Sunday to the Dublin clergy the principles and policy set_forth in the recent circular from” the Pope to tho Irish clergy. 1t was entirely to be expected that the Car- dinal would accept that circular obedient- ly, and the importance of his remarks consists in the fact that he felt called np- on to make them. It is evident that the clergy in general have not shown a tr able spirit on this question, and the dinal’s object was to recall them to their allagiance. Murar HALsTeAD has taken his lance in hand, and charges in the following man- ner on the New York Sun's Dorsey budget: Concerning some of the statements we have no knowledge, but there are certain accusations that we know are falsehoods.

English persons who want to get married are obliged to do so before noon, unless they can obtuin a special license. A Dill extending the hour to 4 o'clock is under consideration. One hundred and seven couples who thought themselves ill-ussorted, and too many of whom, perhaps, were so, applied for divorces in the Jonnecticut supreme court during the first six months of this year.
