Turnre are ordinances prohibiting hack- mon, express wagons and omnibus lines from overcharging, wut the street rail- road line can double its regular rates evory time we have a state fair, and there is no penalty. Why can'’t the council put a stop to such imposition? Tug indorsement of Judge Savage by the Anti-Monopolists of Nebraska will compel the Republican convention to put forward some man of established reputa- and unimpeachable record. The action of the Anti-Monopolists will, in any event, prove beneficial to the com- monwealth, tion TuE great railroads of Nebraska do not seem to realize that ihey are required to give ample accommodations to their pat- rons—whether they pay full fare or travel on excursion tickets. The utter disre- gard of their ubligations to afford com- fortable conveyane to passengers was atrikingly illustrated in the treatment of people—of all sexes and ages—who were in attendance at the Grand Army reun- ion at Hastings. Tug grand jury that indicted Frask James, the highwayman, for murder, have shown alamentable ignorance of the laws of Missouri. The verdict of twelve ex bushwhackers, good and true, shows that the passengers shot down by James and his associate bandits, came to their denth for refusing to throw up their hands, and interfering with the pursuit of happiness, which the constitution of Missouri guarantees to all men, and es- pecially to road agents, PAuL VANDERVOORT has not been dis- missed from the postal service because he has served as commander of the Grand Army. He has been dispensed with be- cause for years bofore he was elevated to the command of the Grand Army and ever since he was retired from that com- mand, he has rendered no service what- ever to the government, in the position for which he has been drawing pay. Mr. Vandervoort had outgrown the postal sorvice and Postmaster-General Gresham has simply, done his duty in placing a man at the head of the railway mail ser- vico of this section who has no other bus- iness than the supervision of the mail service. Tukadvocates of a postal tolegraph who do not want the government to buy out the present systom, have ovidently givan the subject very little thought. There can be no such thimz as competition ia telegraphy. The lowost rate established by one system of telography, must noces- aarily govern all the others. With un. limited capital, and with no d.vidends to declare, the government could put rates down #0 low that no telegraph company could afford to remain in the field, Their property would: thus become worthless except what could be realized for old poles, wires and other materials, In other words, to force the existing com- panics to conpete with the government in the telegraph business would mean do- struction of property and confiscation, Whilethe telograph monopoly has levied enormous taxes onthe peopleit would be unjust and contrary to the spirit of our sys- tem of government to ruin and destroy their property. What the government should do is to purchase all existing lines at a fair valuation. The Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette in its issuo of the Gth instant, says: While the worst of the rumors about Judge Hoadly's condition are not well founded, it is a fact that his health is so seriously impaired that some of his most devoted friends have urged him to withdraw from the political contest, in which his name has been so largely associated, and it is utterly improbable that he will make any more political spoeches this suw- mer, All denials of the statement that he is in a seriously shattered state are false and cruel. Whether he will actually retire from the ticket de- pends upon his own discrotion and the weight of the judgment of his medical advisers, This statement bears upon its faco the slamp of fairness. Judge Hoadley is without doubt forced to retive from the cunvas by failing health and general pros- tration. Judge Hoadley's condition may or may not have been brought about by .shattered hopes and forebodings of dis- aster. Suflice it to say that his forced Fetirement from the campaign in which ho was the foromost leader will make doubly sure the almost inevitable success of the republicans and the triumphant election of Judge Foreaker, 9 | number of arrests have been made during OTHER LANDS THAN OURS, Public interest in Great Britain since Parliament has closed its labors has cen- tered mainly on the development of in- commercial channels. A dustrial and the past week of parties suspected with complicity in dynamite plots, and several prominent Irish agitators have been placed under strict police surveillance. Beyond this absolutely nothing has transpired in the three kingdoms that would be worthy of comment. The rela- tions between France and China since the conclusion of the treaty with Annam are very strained. Reports have reached Paris that a large body of Chinese troops are massing on the Tonquin frontier, and the French Asiatic squadron hasy been charged with the duty of notifying China of the signing of the Hue treaty, whereby France has assumed a protectorate over Anam. A Chinese embaasador, Tseng, has gone to Paris to negotiate with the French authorities, and it is in timated that England would be asked to arbitrate botween the French and Chi- neso in caso the negotiations at Paris fail. Meantime the French aro making prepa- rations for a possible war with China, which test to the utmost the the republic. Much uneasiness is still folt in France over the attitude of Germany, notwith. the Marquis would resources of standing the assurance of Bismarck's personal organ, the North (erinan Gazette, “that in all questions pertaining to its foreign policy since the last war the government of Germany has strictly ob- served toward France a benevolent and friendly attitude, and is prepared to ob- serve the same attitude in future when- ever France sces fit to ussert her interests in a legitimate manner.” Whatever the men at present managing the affairs of the French republic may do abroad, it is evident that the republic itsolf is doing very well at home. The results of the recent elections for the councils general which took place for one- half the departments of France is of far more intrinsic importance with reference to the futureof the country than the chang- ing fortunes of the Annam expedition, or of the schemes which the ministers are in- dulging as to Madagascar, for the excessive adventurousness of the governmentwill be more readily checked by a people really at- tached to republican principles and meth- ods than by one indifferent to these and inclined to allow one or other of the monarchial pretendants to set up a throne once more in France. * Up to the August clections this year the coalition of Legiti- mists, Orleanists and Imperialists held 570 and the republicans 875 of the 1,445 seats which became vacant, and the coali- tion had a majority in cach of sixteen depariments. In these elections the re- publicans gained 163 scats and lost 34, Jeaving a net gain of 120 seats and secur- ing a majority in five of the departments formerly controlled by the reactionists. Among the departments gained was that of Corsica, in which the Bonapartists have always enjoyed a sort of vested su- premacy, and which, even this year, was supposed to be secured to them, This gradual and steady development of ropublican strength must be sot down, unquestionably, in part to the influence of patronage. The republican politicians are, for the most, firm believers in the theory that in these contests the victors have a right to the spoils, and they have backed their view of this matter by ‘the patriotic proposition that their enemies are really enemies of the republic and not contestants with themselves for the privilege of managing the government. But it must be romembered that this plea, whether it be sincerely made or not, is actually true, that every reac- tionary canlidate makes secrot of his desito to get power to upsot the republic. It must bo remem- bered, also, that the great victories of the Republicans, of which these later ones are but the natural sequence or the confirma- tien, were won against the use and abuse of patronage in its most offonsive, opres- sive and corrupt form. Whatever may be the present tactics of the Republican leaders, they do not venture to repress the liberties of their opponents, as their opponents repressed those of Republicans up to 1879, The gain made by the Re- publican party is a substantial and prob- ably a permanent one, and it affords the best possible proof that the prophets of ovil for France are far from being justi- fied by the facts, no The effortd of Bismarck to combine monarchial Europe in an alliance, if not against France, at all events in one,omit- ting that republic, seom for the present successful, ~ It has been thought by somo that theimperial German statesman looks to the ultimate dismenberment of the French territory and the final ex- tinction of the French government. The motive withjthe German leador may be considered to be two-fold: Traditional distrust and hatred of the French and a desire to extinguish republicanism, which has grown to bo & menaco in tho very heart of Kurope. The course of the ultra-monarchists in not plin nor easy. The old idea that the people exist for kings is not only ques- tioned in this day, but is openly, if not defiantly disputed, by the common sense of & large purtion of the people of every vernment of enlightenment in the world, The enslaved and sodden intel- locts of & hundred years ago, which did not perceive that the only true object of government was to serve the interests and executo the will of the people, have given place to the rational advocates of K”l'“m vights and universal liborty. Monarchical governments, moved by the powerful will and boundloss amb’tion of the German chancellor, may combine against republican France, but it by no meaus follows that the body of the people of those governments can be relied upon in this respect to execute the decreos of hereditary power. Thus whon the con- tinent is apparently united against the ropublic, the great mass of the people way in fact be in close sympathy with the | many and France, fifteen years ago, the French were led by an autocrat and the territory of the Germans was in- vaded and tho safety as well as the man- hood of the German people was assailed. Every prompting of patriotism impelled the Germans to unity and_resentment. The conditions now are widely changed. The French are no longer aggressive in Europe. traditional enemies of Germany, nor the exponents of a despotism. It would be a marvel if the Gorman people could be now united, as in 1870, in an offensive encing trouble with her corporations very similar to those which confront our- selves. the Fre chamber, and through it the countr the chamber ad denounced the corrupt influences om- masses larger laws., The whole trouble in Frax have already begun to control the el tions, Ev y year the French assembly liament, wl and stockholders. 8o dee) the apprehension of dang source, that inall probabi hear of an anti-monapoly te ¢ being cs weakness of which the next political bat- tlo may be fought. For something more than one hundred years the thirty millionsof people inhab- iting the islands of Great Britain and willions in India. The population of In- Russia, and its territory of about one and a half million square miles is nearly as large. The little island of the west coast of Europe thus holds in subjection a peo- ple eight times as numerous as its own, This is a triumph at once of brain and of force. The English have had the good sense and the tact to make allies of In- dian chiefs agd thus enlist the na- tives in the force that held the countryin bjection. The claim, of course, is that under British rule the empire has ad- vanced in civilization. Undoubtedly the chiefs have been benefited by intercourse with European society and the opportu nities afforded by European schools. But the masses of the people have been drained of the products of their toil. Perhaps this would have been the case under native chiefs, but the fact can be used as one of the results of British rule. A London dispatch says: “There is a cloud gathering in India, and the uneasy murmurs denote a growing dissatisfaction and unrest.” The wonder is, not that the cloud is gathering now, but that it has not gathered sooner.

Dairas, Tex., September 2. — Hon. John McComb, of Montgomery county, was in the city to-day en route home from Wise and adjoining Northwest Texas counties. He represents great trouble is anticipated and liable to occur at almost any moment in that section between the large stock ranch owners, on the one side, and the nesters, as the cattle men of small posessions are termed, and a certain element of cow boys, mostly those unemployed, on the other side. The wire fence cutting is the cause of the threatened contlict. McComb represents both sides of the controversy as quietly | arming and everything foreshadowing bloodshed., He says that the causes of | the trouble are that the big cattle com- panies fence up large tracts of land that they have not purchased, and in many instances vast amounts_that they have no clim to. They keop their own stock and verybody elso off thesa enclo and let their own herds graze on the common range till the grass is ex- hausted, and then turn their stock in on the wire-fence range and exclude the nester element, The latter swear that | they d lands, WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS, and demand a common range for all, They say that the{) have as much right to the range of the big cattle corporations as the last named have to the common range, and that in no event have the big companies the right to fence in any of the public domain and get the exclusive benefit of it. The unemployed cowboys naturally side with the nesters as a mat- ter of seli-interest, as the erection of wire fonces would give their numerous frater- nity labor they have been deprived of. The wire fonce trouble extends over an area of huadreds of miles and in- siden APPEAR BQUALITY DETERMINED, Mr, McComb says he cannot seo how an open war can be averted, Both sides are quietly arming for the affray, In addi- tion to the fence cutting, tho nester and the cowboys swear that they will fire the perish in common before they will submit to what they term the monopoly and auto- cracy of the ranges.

It operates in dark- ness; its meetings are under the cover of darkness, and_its membership is as deep- ly vailed. It is a desperate league to ex- terminate the wire fence and its power is ingly illustrated in the terrible blows which have already been dealt. It was rumored yesterday that a line rider, one who lookes after the fences, was lynched in Jack county for interfering witha party engaged in demolishing the wire. The report has not yet been confirmed, but it is not at all improbable; such meas- ures are not incompatible with the spirit which now prevails. In fact, it would REQUIRE BUT A SIGNAL from the leaders of the secret organi tion to inaugurate a terribly unflinching contest—a border warfare, in which the black flag would be raised; brother array- ed against brother, friend against fri nd, and meighbor against neighbor. The most conservative men anticipate _it. Said one to me to day: We are border- ing on the most desperate state of affurs has ever experienced. Unless something is speedily done_the outcome will be bloodshed, and the old days of the Texas desperadoes will furnish nothiug to compare with it, Already there are low mutterings of an intention to_burn out the entire range. There is no doubt but that preliminary steps are being taken to render it effective. Even now "the bub- ble is about to burst.
