Tuose speculators who are’ figuring on heavy damage done to the corn crop by frosts, will do well to think twice before jumping into the market and staking money on their opinions. In the first place it is now generally agreed that the reports have greatly over-estimated the amount of corn damaged. By far the greater part of the corn in the Union is ‘below the limits of the lato frosts, Boil- ed down, it is found that not more than 1,000,000 bushels were injured by the «cold snap, returns from whish made such an imposing typographical display.

As T pany or craved the approval of t] B has never sought the com- gentlemen during the last eight yea:s it i« not likely at this lato day to feel i jured or hurt over their eriticisms, Their praise would be a worso doso than their blame. The position and policy of this paper is such that it asks no favors and fears no attacks, 1t stands upon a platform of political independence which gives it a vantago ground over thoso of its contem- porarios who prefer hide-bound partisan- ship to an honest expression of their con- party cor- be treason to endorsement to methods and assi victions. If it to refase an rupt party to incompotent and dishonest party can- didates, Tue Bee cheorfully pleads guilty to the indictment. And if it be the part of a traitor to assist in administering the medicine of defeat in the hope of sccur- ing greater victories in the future by the unsuppressed and honest voice of the party froed from the lash of the ringsters and rascals who have seized the Republican party in Nebraska by the throat, then Tur Ben again admits the charge with pride. But if this be treason, and if the policy of this paper stamps itas a traitor, the Republican party, not only in Ne- braska, but in every State in the Union, is honeycombed with rebellion. Let the men who have diverted, the Republican party from the great uses for which it was intended look closely as to where the blame lies and provide quickly the remedy. If not, it will come from the men and from independent Republican journals who last fall assisted in showing the rascals and machine man- agers in six States that a change of 1,600,000 Bepublican votes can teach a losson which primaries and conventions cannot afioid to disregard, ance Ix another column we reproduce the charges made against Congressman James Laird which are now the subject of in- vestigation by the Interior department. For nearly two weeks past they have been urged upon the attention of the Congrossman from the Second district by the Omaha Herald. They were not credited at first by this paper, as they wero vaguo and lacked the mnecessary apecifications. But as now formulated and backed by affidavit, they have an ugly look and call for a prompt explana- tion. If Mr. Laird has not been using his official position and influence, as is chariged, to coerco the officers of a Jand office in Nebraska into assisting him in a schem» for fraudulently obtaining a large section of ,;..mmmuuflmul in this Stato, cover all the points, is due from Mr, Laird to his constituents, The charges involve not only himself but the officials - of the MeCook land oftice and a dozen or more [ yyoney.

For their sake, as well as for his own, Mr. Laird should come promptly to the front, ho considers a dignified silence. It will not help mattors to continue his threats against editors and his denunciations of the avenues of information through which the charges were made public. There is already talk of an investigation by con- gress this winter, As Mr. Laird has had two weeks to prepare his case, he ought have already & crop of 1,600,000,000 assured, and for each week that frost is witheld, 160,000,000 bushels more will be added to the aggregate.

The Irish National League, of which Charles Stewart Parnell is at once the animating motive and the political mouthpiece, have “announced the pro- gramme which they will endeavor te push at the next parliamentary session. Its main features are already fanuliar to those who have watched the progress of the Irish debates or followed the spoeches of the Nationalist leaders and their letters in the public press, 1t is summed up in three demands, The first asks the umendment of the Land Act with a view to first securing to the tenant the benefits intended by the Healy clause, which was meant to forbid the commissioners to take into consider- ation the improvements ho had effected when they are ascertaining what is fair rent; and second, to secure more favor- able terms to those tenants who wish to purchase lands, The second demand of the Nationalists is that the clausvs in the Land Act for the purpose of securing an allotment of |ing in its offects.

THE HERALD'S CHARGES, In answer to the demand of the Re- publican the IHerald has formulated its specific charges against Congressman Laird. Boiled down, they are te the effect that Mr. Laird is a partner in a conspiracy to fraudulently control some sixteen miles of the water front on the Stinking Water, in Red Willow county, in this State, for ranch purposes, which stretch of land he endeavored to secure in defiance of the land laws of the United States through collusion with the officers of the land office at McCook. The charges made by the Ierald came from no less an authority than an inspector of the Interior Department, who has been investigating the matter and whose re- port is now on file in Washington. The following interesting affidavit is published in this connection: State of Nebraska, Red Willow county—ss, C. B. Moore, being first duly sworn, do- poses and suys: ' My postoffice address is Mc- v ook, Red Willow county, Nebraska. I made a claim on the Stinking Water, in No- braska, in the ear] Hmrt. of June, A. D" 1883, upmn which I settled. T tried enter it at United States land office in McCook, but was prevented from doing so by being misled by men mappossl to bo i the interest of Laird who Kelloy, gawve me an _ erroncous description of ‘my claim, aud because tho land officors refused to receive my application until after Laird & Ralley had made their snteies, .. T was Taisled by Pago S. Francis, surveyor of Red Willow county My claim was jumped by one of the Laird & l\nfiuy party. 1 mean James Laird, the member of Congress from the sesond district of Nebraska, aud_ Simon Kelloy, a saloon keeper st Hastings, Neb. I saw Pago Francis on the Stinking Water creck on the 15th of June, 1883, and the day before I met James Laird in that neigh- | borhood. He told me ho was surveying olatms for La'ed & Kelloy, and ¢his b told me in tho prosonce of George H. Hurlburt, Mr, Hurlburt had made a claim adjoining mine, and his clasim was also jumped by Luird & Kelly's men, I was present with Mr. George Hulburt at tho opening of the land office at McCook on the 15th of June, 1. The office opened at 9:15 0. m. Tmmediately on opon- ing the offico Mr. Hurlburt and T were present and tried to make entries of our land claims, but both officers refused to receive our appli- cations, After this Mr. 1. N, Starbuck, at- torney for Laird & Kelly, came from' be- hind the countor and ~ ‘walked around in front of the counter, and im- mediatoly after Mr. Starbuck _roached the front of the counter the register, Mr, Lent, stated that the offico was ready for_business. At the time of this aunouncement Mr. Lent, the register, stood diroctly in front of Mr. Starbuick, open for business, and to this iuquiry hie could got no rosponse. - Tmmediately after Mr. Leat aunounced the offico upen for business Mr. Starbuck said “Mr. Registor,” and thereupon hauded bim o number of papers and a roll of apparently, and funu wmiencod ci or 50 ge apany with Mr, Starbuck, (t0 whom T red as apparent strangers) responded *‘h s the names were called from the list of pers by Mr. Lent, and theu the roll of money was laid on the counter without beiug count 1: Mr. Starbuck remarked that thers was tain which, T saw v give this roll of money to Mr. Star- buck., While this was goiu n, and imme- dmbul{ after the calling of each name, both Mr, Hulburt and myself offered the money and the papers for the entry of our claims, but the officers refused to admit our entries until they had finished these Laird & Kelly entries. 1 hive been living in the neighborhood of where these entries were made uufi to the best ot my knowledge neither of thesemen were ever on the land they entered or have ever been there sinco unless for one night only. Immediately after the names were called and the response “here" was given, the register said, **Hold up your hands and be sworn,” and_theroupon the oath was administered in a body. There was no pretense of identifying one of them, and the response ‘‘here” might have been per- sonated le\: other persons in the room. Before opening the office for business Mr. Starbuck, attorney for Laird & Kelloy, was allowed ac- pa- covered that Mr, Francis, the surveyor, had given us descriptions that were about a milo and a half north of the creek in the sand hills, aud that Laird & Kelly's men had entored our lands. Both Hurlburt and I had im- proved and settlod upon our claims. I am ully aware that I had a legal claim to con- test, but what I havo witnessed hero doterred me @s I am & poor man and could not stand the expense, and theroupon, I withdrew my papers. Mr. Hurlburt then made s statement of facts to the secretary of the interior in re gard to our claims, Mr. Fraucis suggested to me. that both Mr. Hurlburt aud 1 had better remain on our cluits, because Laird & Kelly wers trying to Leat us out of it. @, B, Mook, Subscribed in my presence and sworn to boforo me this 15th day of September,” A, 1. 588, + CiiAL E.

The member of congress knows that if his present con- tituency should reject him he could not find another seat; the member of parlia- ment may exchange an English for a Seotch constituency, or vice versa. The logical result of our system is that most members of the house of representatives are chiefly occupied with schemes to secure their own re-election, and they consider every measure that comes before them with sole reference to its effect on their districts. It would make some second- rate congressmen feel very uncomfortable to know that they were to be confronted in their districts by the very strongest men in the opposing party—if a man like AlE QT BUFRAThOHId oppose a w republican in a doubtful district in Maine, or James G. Blaine should pit himself against a weak-kneed democrat in Ohio. nder such circumstances a political campaign would furnish some very inter- esting reading. An Embarrasiug s'osition, Chicago Herald. Last Sunday Governor Blackburn thought he would go over to Brooklyn and hear Mr. Talmage preach. In order to have an opportunity of speaking to the Brooklyn divine afterward, he sent his card to him by an usher. Then he took a pew and listened to the sermon. Sudden- ly he was surprised by a gentleman who tapped him on the shoulder, and beckoned the Governor to follow him down the aisle. The congregation was about to begin a hymn, The man led the wonder- ing ex-Governor to the platform and as the preacher clasped the Kentuckian's hand 6,000 voices sang out, ‘‘While the lamp holds out to burn, the vilest sinner may return,” Governor Blackburn says he was never more embarrassed in his life. *“Talmage spared me, though,” smd the Governor. “Before singing the doxology he announced my name to the congregation, and afterward I think I must have been introduced to a thousand ladies and gentlemen.” e——— The Hendricks Boom, Baltimore American, Fx-Governor Hendricks is reported to have announced in a_political address at Council Bluffs that Mr. Tilden is not a candidate for the presidentisl nomination, will be or not. ~ This statement, if the report is confirmed, will stir up the irdig- nation of the advocates of the ‘‘old ticket,” who will be rather nettled at the attempt of the second man on the ticket to crowd out Uncle Sammy. Mr. Hendricks' gentle treatment of the tariff issue indicates that he is quite willing to be a candidate, and that he will not make up his mind not to run until the Demo- cratic Convention decides to put up some- bady else.
