Caxpinates for supreme judge are as thick as prairie chickens in August. The poorer the lawyer the more rabid the ap- plicant for office. Takix the inspectors away from the control of the board of public works is the latest move of the council towards placing themselves in more direct com- munication with the contractors. i —— Tue weather is growing warmer but county politicians are even warmer than the weather. The buttonholing and handshaking and wire pulling has already begun with every incumbent of office a candidate for renomination. Tur West Point cadets are very much excited over the dismissal of Cadet Harti gan, who is accused of hazing a sentinol onduty The entire corps have signed the petition for a courtmartial, and earnestly assert Hartigan's innocence. The secretary of war reforred Hartigan's statement of the matter to Superintendent Merritt, and that officer has just made a full report on the case in which he says: ““There is now no question in my mind but that there was a deliberate plan formed and entered into to throw the sentinel into the ditch of Fort Clinten and to do him violence and bodily injury, and that ex-Cadet Hartigan was the prime mover in the matter.” Savs the Philadelphia Press: “The telephone companies in New England have tripled their capital in their recent consolidation, As corporations go, this practically triples tho dividends which the company can safely pay to its stock- holders at the expense of tho public without exciting criticism, Like thetele- graph, the supply of gas, or water, or the express business, the telephone is cer- tain to become an absolute monopoly, tempered by criticism and tampered with by strikes in each locality; but, in our present methods of dealing with corpora- tions, the public has no defense, that the company cannot charge more than the traflic will bear; anything less it can collect. except Tug effort to revive the Ku-Klux howl for political effect will not be successful. No doubt there is a good deal of law- lessness in the South, and several negroes in Tennessce and North Carolina may have been whipped in their cabins, But there is absolutely no proof that political differences had any part in the disorders. Both states are overwhelmingly demo- cratic. The party has nothing whatever to gain by intimidation of voters. They have everything to lose by awakening the suspicion that organized political in- toleranco is again to be practiced throughout the South. Such a scheme would help the republicans far more than the democrats. From the best authori- ties obtainable it seem probable that thare are some very bad citizens in the localities affected by these troubles and that the treatment called Ku-Kluxism in the South would be called Vigilance committee's work in Arizona, Idaho, or Colorado. Tuk council haye passed an ordinance which takes the appointment of inspce- tor of city works out of the hands of the board of public works and vests it in the mayor and council. This is & move in the wrong direction. The board was created largely to remove contractors as far as possible from the council and to place the supervision of public improve- ments in the hands of officials specially charged with that duty. As the parties who let the contracts by order of the council it is proper that the board should Le held responsible for the fidelity of the contractors in carry- ing on their work according to the stipu- lations adopted, For this reason the appointment of inspectors naturally fell into the hands of the board. There are good reasons for the belief that aside from the question of increased political patronage, the council was dissatisfied at the distance which lay eetween them and the contractors through this system of inspection, With & number of inspectors responsible only to the board the personal _influence of the council upon the contractors was slight and any collusion between dishon- est inspectors and dishonest councilmen was impossible. This is precisely what ought to be the case for the best interests of Omaha, And tnis is the reason why the curtailing of the powers of the board - of public works in the matter of inspec- tors of city works is a move in the wrong direction. | tho matter of the capitol contr MINES AND MINING SHARPS, The New York Sun has a roving cor- | respondent who is doing the west for his | | paper, and is devoting his energies to exposing the frauds of various kinds, and degrees which he finds seattered through out the country. Having riddled the cattle business as played out and unprof itable, he attacks the mining business, and starts out by almost all declaring that frauds it the Rocky ment as there would be in the statement that almost all frauds in Wall street Where property are the chie interests greater opportunities for fraud present themselves, But the that “no man can selling tell the truth about it,” as that no man can sell a farm without swindling the purchaser. Mining interests like all which the speculative cloment enters have | suffered severely from inflation during the past five years, based on stocks and bonds, mines and minin is ns false interests in A plethora of unin vested capital in the east offered a heavy premium on wildeatting and the result was the sinking of millions of dollars in worthless securities and unproductive properties. Men who would have hesi- tated along time before making a heavy investment in a substantial business ven- ture threw aside all caution when ap- proached to purchase mining property and naturally suffered the con A disrogard of business principles is generally disastrous, Buying a mine with one's eyes shut is as risky s a dash at the grab bag in a church festival. But while millions have been sunk in buying prospect holes, the men who have en- tered into mining transactions on the suno basis as thoy would any other legit- 1mate business, have made money. The steady output from the Colorade and Idaho mines during the past year shows what carefully selocted and properly conducted mining property can return in the way of interest on the vestment. Of course there are frauds and swindlérs in mining operators just as there are sharps 1 in the real estate bus- mg grain dealers and dighonest dealers in a hundred lines of trade. But this is no reason for a whole- sale denunciation of mines as blind chances, or of mining operators as knaves and scoundrels. OUR RETAINER, The supreme court will have a very light task before it in the matter of the capitol contract that comes up to-day, and will bo argued if counsel are found ready, Tue OMAHA Bex has already de- cided the case. Tt always decides such cases off-hand and abuses’ the court for a prospective reversal of its decision, be- fore it has had an opportunity to consider one end of the All cases that “‘Boss Stout” ever had or ever expects to have in this or any other court have been promptly decided ngainst him by the Bee. If the court finds difforently it will Tave to face the sore displeasure of Rosewater, who is permanently rotained | on the other side. —Lineoln Journal, The task before the supreme court in iness, crooks an et is to detevmine whether the public interests domand that contracts for state work shall be let to the lowest responsible bidder, regardless of who a higher bidder may be. Wo do not protend to say whether the task is o light or a heavy one Tt is a very important onc, how- ever, and Mr, Silver has done well to call upon the court to take it up. Tuk Bee has not decided the case in advance. 1t has stated undisputed facts and drawn the natural conclusions, Mr. Silver's bid was $41,000 lower than| that of W. H. B. Stout. It was drawn was aecompanied by a bond which was in every respect sufficient. In the face of theso facts, the board of public lands and buildings awarded the contract to Mr. Stout, State Sturdevant dissonting, The public who pay the taxes are equally intorosted with Mr. Silver in getting at the true inwardness of the matter, and an appeal to the supreme court was the proper method of inquiry. Tur Bek is permanently retained on the side of the peoplo against all jobbers. As an attorney - in this line it has met with more or less success during its career. Honest counts, pre- sided over by honest judges, have a habit of concurring in the opinions expressed by Tk Bek in cases whére the peoplo are pitted against thieves and plunderors, If Tug Ber changed its position in affairs of the kind, honest ceunts and honest judges would disagree with it more fro- quently. It is a great misfortune for the state, and for Lincoln, that a paper of equal independence and honesty is not located at the capita! city. Tug law of the United Statos requires that when clerks arc absent from dutios exceeding thirty days’ leave granted each year,except in case of sickness, they shall not be allowed pay for the time they are off duty. This is o provision apparently of u recent appropriation bill, Secretary Folger justly construes this to require that absence for the purpose of “‘going home to vote” shall be deducted from the regular allowanco of thirty days’ vica- tion, This is sensible and proper. How- over proper it may be that the members I'reasurer of the civil service shall exercise its po- litical rights, the governwent does not secm to be required to excuse them from the performance of their regular duties, where that act requires anabsence of sev- eral days. ‘The law was undoubtedly de signed and properly to prevent the ser- vice from going home and ** litically on public salaries. working'’ po- Cor, LaLes has been sent back to his post in Montana, and there is a strong presumption that the verdict of the court martial was not one of dismissal, mountains are based on mines | or mineral property.

Th v of 1826 brought together |in one e t |m(| been by congress. It force in substance for twenty years, though changes of greater or less im- | portance were made at several sessions of | congress. The differences between the | present law and that of 1825 are numer- ous and , important. At that time and | until 1836 all postmasters, or, as they were sometimes called, *“deputy postmns ters,” were appointed by the postmaster general, The postmasters of the im- portant offices are now appointed by the president, with the of the senate. The postage rates as they were fixed in 1816, and remained for nearly thirty years, were on a sliding scalo that must have required a high ¢ greo of arithm Nilliexiins part of postmasters. The rates for a letter of a set of paper were, for any dis- tance under 30 miles, 6 cents; over 30 and under 80 miles, 10 cents; over 80 and under s, 12} cents; over 150 and under 400 IIlIlL)‘, ]N{ cents, and over 400 miles, 25 cents. Letters of two sheets were charged double postage, those of three sheets triple postage, and others on the same scale, The instructions given to the postmas- ters in 1826 indicate some of the difficul- ties that were found in applying the law. Ono regulation says: *‘It may some- times be difficult to discover whether a letter is single or double or treble, but after a little experfence you will generally b able to decide by feeling or by hold- ing the letter to the light.” Postmasters were directed to reckon the distance t tween two by tho shortest| post route. Circuits ‘were sometimes | made for the delivery of ters 8o that the carriers did not returnby the same route that he used in going and the method used in calculating the digtance was sometimes highly important, “Chus in Now Jersey,” says the regula: tions, *‘thero is o cireuitous route from Trenton to Allentown, Shrewsbury, ete., w Brunswick, and thence to Sum- rville Court-house and Flemington to T'rentc From Trenton by the route on which the mail is carried to Flem- ington is 131 miles, and the pos by that distance would bo 12} cents, & the actual distance from Flemington to Trenton is only twenty-three miles, the postage of lotter sent either way { would be only 6 cent | The postage was not usually prepaid. Stamps were not introduced until 1847, Newspapers were sent within the state or a distance of 100 miles for 1 cont each. and for 1} conts for grea or distances the provisions that | at various times remained in | according to the distance; | the | burg, 12 cents; consent fpose to do a let- | W ud | ¢© of to-day s, as senator Platt expresses it | “the rich man’s mail.” With monopoly (ru-h.-.l out by the powerful aid of the | government it could be brought within the reach of every indvid in the land.
