The Chinese scem to be gotting thack on the Caucasians with the cry ““The Christians must go." Avrer two weeks deliberation, Mr. Laird has not quite made up his mind as to whother ho is entirely guilty or not, M. Laird’s private admissions and pub lic denials do not tally. —_——— Pavi Vaxpervoort, who fought, bled | and died for his country in the late war as a commissary clerk, but who banks heavily on the G. A. R., worked tooth and nail at the last legislature against General Thayer and Charles F. Mander- son, both of whom were members of that organization, while Mr. Millard, Vander- voort's preferred candidate, never smelled powder. Tue San Francisco Chronicle asserts that the opening of the Northern Pacific will have little effect in breaking down the monopoly of the Central lino. It predicts that the Northern, Central and Southern Pacific managers at their meet- ing this week will harmonize on a policy to squeeze the people of their respective sections as much as they will stand. In other words, the enlightened theory of Leland Stanford, ‘‘to charge all the traflic will bear,” will be approved and acted up to afterward by the bogus competing lines. Mz, Larkp has telegraphod a statement from Hastings to the Lincoln Journal and the Omaha Republican in which he makes a general denial of the charges made against hime quelified by the ad- mission that he dil have a conversation in the Paxton relative to lands for stock raising and that he did make a visit to the Sinking Water creok prior to the time of* the claim jumping oporations in which he is accused of having a hand. Mz, Laird will have to be more specific if ie proposes to removo the effect of the very serious charges which have been made against him and which aro bocked by corroborative evidence from a d. zen sources. Ir Vandervoort wishes he can en- lighten the postmaster general about what he was doing in Soda Springs, Idaho, at the time he reported himself attending to his official duties in Omaha. Mr. Vandervoort's official duties just then consisted in placing the stock of a certain mining enterprise, in which he is interest ed, among the postal clerks of the railway mail servico. For this purpose he had a friend made special agent of the department without pay in order to secure hum transportation on the railroads and stage lines in the west, and partic- ularly in Idaho, where the mine was sit- uated. ““Working” the postal clerks in a mining speculation, in Vandervoort's opinion, was attending to his oftigial bus- iness, but Mr. Gresham will hardly look at the matter in the same light as the patriotic commissary clerk who was lately grand commander of the G, A, R, E— Tue New York Herald is werried over our navy. Itsays: ‘‘We havenot much of a navy; but matters are getting so complicated on the Chincse coast that the president ought to order the whole of our available fleet to those waters at once. The Richmond, fourteen guns; the Essex and Enterprise, of six guns each; the Ashuelot and Monocacy, tw) antiquated paddle-wheel vessels, and a dispatch boat, the Palos, now, according to tho last naval register, constitute our Asiatic squadron, To these ought to be added the few seaworthy vessels which are now in the Mediterranean and on the North and South Pacific stations, only ten in all, and that without delay.” The Herald is behind the times. The Ashuelot was wrecked off the coast of Eastern Asia over six months ago, owing to a drunken commander, who has been dismissed from the service for losing the lives of eleven seamen, WEe are not inclined to credit the re- port that Mayor Chase will appoint Ed, Walsh to the important position of sewer inspector for Omaha. The appomtment is one so manifestly unfit to be made that neither the mayor of council could invent any valid exouso for it. The principal duty, a8 wo understand it, of the sewer inspector will be to supervise connections with the Waring system of sewers, exam- ine into the causes of stoppages, and ro- port violations of the law respecting the use of the system. Incidentally there will be some work connected with our surface drainage sewers, but fow stop- pages need be expected from this source, and the duties in that respect will not be laborious, The best man for the pos- ition would be a practical plumber, The examination of drains and connections with sanitary conveniences for house drainage falls directly in the line of the plumbing business. Such a man would atart in office with the training and cx- EUROPEAN DISARMAMENT. The cablo reports that Germany is about to propose to the European powers a general disarmament. This rumor has The conclusion of the Turco-Russiaa war and the proceedings of the Ber- lin congross believed to point strongly in this direction. Each suc- coeding conference of the emperors has been eonsidered of significaace as leading to the point of an international confi- dence which would permit at least a heavy decrease in the enormous standing armies which are sapping the vitality of were prosecuted early in the spring, as it should be, our people must be given an opportunity to vote this fall on another | proposition for an additional 100,000 in boon often repeated during the past five | paving bonds, If they carry, as they certainly should, all the red tape pre- liminary to the ordering of paving and the letting of the contracts can be done this winter and when the spring opens work can be at once begun.

On the present peace footing they do mot exceed 4,000,000, maintained at an annual oxpense of about £150,000,000 sterling or nearly $000,000,000 of our money Russia leads the lists with a standing army of 88,400 men and officers which can be recruited in time of war to 2,427,- 863, For the support of her military es- tablishment, Russia expends $100,000,- 000 yearly. The army of Germany at the beginning of 1882 was reperted at 446,134 men* According to the German system of army organization the broak- ing out of war would place 1,456,677 sol- diers at once in the field while the call- ing out of the Landsturm would increase the number to 2,600,000 without touch- ing the last reserve. On a peace footing, the army offFrance consists of 471,971 men and 26,968 offi- cers, The last report of the war minis- try places the total available forces in caso of the calling out of tho resorves at 2,000,000 men. Italy has but 75,000 soldiers enrolled in her regiments now in the active service and 873,712 availa- ble for immediate service in case of war. It is estimated that with the territorial army and the last reserves a force of 1,990,000 could be assembled. Turkey’s army is much scattered in the various provinces under the Ottoman rule and their numbers are imperfectly known. The last information from English sour- cos places thoir strongth on a war basls at 500,000 men. BAThese aro the largost of the armies in Europe, but Spain, Portugal, Norway and Sweden, the Netherlands, Denmark, Belgium and Greece have military or- ganizations which provide for the raising of a further total of 650,000 soldiers in case of forcign invasion while Switzer- land and the Danubian principalitios in cluding Servis, Roumania and Mon- tenegro estimate their armies on a war footing at 674,850 men. Such a mighty armament is at once a menace to peace and an uleer on the wealth producing capacity of Europe. A general disarmament which would reduce these immense standing armies to forces suflicient only to maintain domestic or- der and secure their respective countries against foreign domination would be a blessing to the continent. A WISE POLICY, Public improvements in Omaha have not been begun aday too soon. The rapid growth of the city and its increas- ing importance as a great cemmercial center long ago demanded that it should be placed abreast of its sisters in those elements which go to make up a substan- tial foundation for future progress. Every year that our streets romained un- graded and uncurbed, our houses without sewer connections and our mamn business arteries unpaved set back Omaha five years in comparison with such cities as St. Paul and Minueapolis. We were forced to overcome a conservatism which was nothing but foggism under another name and an inertia which savored very much of a lack of public spirit before the public reached its present position of demanding the prompt forwarding of a comprehen- sive and wide reaching system of improve- ments which would make Omaha a metropolis in appearance as well as in name. Public improvements have at last be- systematic vigor. Paving operations are in rapid progress. Our sewer systom is well advanced in the central section of the city. Grading and curbing and gut- tering are going on in almost every ward. Omala is at last thoroughly awakened, both to what progress means and a pro- grossivo city demands, Tho finances of the city are in excellent condition; busi- ness is prosperous and taxes will not for years to come be burdensome, Itisa wiso policy to make hay while the sun shines. The season in whic paving can be dono is drawing to a close. Sixty days at the farthest remain for the completion of the work under contract- before winter will be uponus. Upon the opening of spring the work ought to be resumed. Next year should sce Dodge and Howard streets paved, Farnam stroct ro-paved and the sections of the cross stroots not now comploted or under con tract, laid with a durable pavement, Ninth street is also calling for improve: ment and paving. Under these circumstances the duty ef the city council is plain. The conclusion of the work under contract and that for which contracts will shortly be perience for his duties which any other class of mechanics would be ferced to ac- «quire at the expense of his work, ¢ let will entirely eonsume the proceeds of the salo of the paving bonds voted at the last bend election.

Lot the Council complete at once the | nbcessary formularities for a bond propo- sition at the coming fall election and the tax paying voters of Omaha will sustain them in their action, A sreo1ar telegram from Washington states that the transfer of tho Tenth in- fantry from the upper lakes to Oregon and Washington Terr y to exchange with the Twenty-first infantry, will begin about the 1st of October. The Twenty- firat will move from Vancouver barracks, and the Tenth from Fort Wayne, Ind., and Detroit, Mich. The exchange will be made by detachments, as it will be diffi- cult to procure sufficient rolling stock to make the transfer over so long a line at onco, and it wili probably take nearly two months to complete the movement. There are about 500 officers and men in each regiment. Many of the older and married men will exchange by transfer from one regiment to the other, those of the Twenty-first especially preferring to remain on the Pacific coast, whero they have taken ranches and homesteads. This regimeut has been in its present situation on the Pacific coast for cighteen years. It has been longer in one place than any other regiment in the service, and has been inat least half a dozen Indian wars, notably in the chase after Chief Joseph and the Modog campaign. The concentration of the Sixth infantry at Fort Douglas, Salt Lake City, will take place as soon as additional barracks can be prepared for them. It will be the only regiment in the army whose com- panies will be located at one fort. Tk New Jersey radicals have gone through the formality of a nomination of State candidates for defeat—a ceremony which they perform every three years with becoming dignlty.— Herald. A Republication nomination in New Jersoy is not a mere formality, though as arulo the State can be counted upon as Democratic. In 1872 Gen. Grant swept it by 14,257 majority. Since that time the Democrats have carried it. In 1876 Mr. Tilden received 115,956 votes, against 103,619 for Mr. Hayes. In 1880 Gen. Hancock received 122,665 votes, against 120,555 for Gon. Garfield, 2,617 for the Greenback candidate, and 191 Prohibition votes. A Governor holds for three years in New Jersey, and is not immediately eligiblo for ro-election. In 1874 the Demcrats elected their Gov- ernor by a clear majority of 13,223, In 1877, when Gen. McClellan was nomi- nated by acclamation—Mr. Leon Abbott being then also a candidate before the convention—McClellan received 97,838 votes, against 85,004 for the Republican candidate, 5,008 for the Groenback can- didate, and 1,438 temperance votes, McClellan’s clear majority over all was thus only 4,247, In 1880 the Demo- cratic candidate, Gov. Ludlow, received 121,666 votes; his Republican opponent; Mr. Potts, 121,015, with 2,759 votes for the Greenback candidate. INDUSTRIAL NOTES.

He has $20,000,000 in Lake Shore and New York Central, probably more of it in Lake Shore. He has $10,- 000,000 in Northwestern stock and bonds. He has stock in the Red Line and other freight companies. He has something in Michigan Central. T estimato his wealth at from $150,000,000 to $200,- 000,000. “‘Here is the report of the Central up to one year ago. 1t had only 4,500 stock- holders in 1880. Two years later it had 7,600. That shows that Vanderbilt had sold his long line of stocks, whatever he may say, and that a larger public had got hold of them. Again, the funded debt of New York Centrai ten years ago was only $27,000,000; last year it was $48,- 000. Here you can read in the official report the figures. Again, the fixed charges on the New York Central, by which I mean interest on the bonds, were only §2,000,000 a year, and the last year they were $5,600,000, wbich that road has to carn beforo anybody can get a dividend on his stock. At the same time, as you can see by following my finger, the net earnings of the New York Central Railroad are not as large by $2,000,000 as they were nine years ago. Thoy reached the highest point in 1880, They were just the same in 1882 that they were in 1873.” Said I, “Why do you turn so particu- larly to the Central stock?” ‘‘Because it has has led all the proper- ties in the United States, certainly in this stock market, for years past. It has been baying 8 per cent, dividends. It is the ackbone of the New stock market. It has paid over $7,000,000a year in dividends in eleven years, makeng $77,- 000,000. When it tumbles 30 per cent, it is for reasons which are genersl to the whole steck list.” ‘‘Have Vanderbilt’s sons no influence to fight this stock back to where it was?’ “They haye lost money trying to stem the tide in the stock market. Kvery one of Vanderbilt's strong supporters. who has stood in the way of this current of liquidation has been hurt badly. Mr. Vanderbilt’s oldest son, Cornelius, is a very worthy man. He attends the prayer meetings in the New York Con- tral depot every Sunday afternoon, and he started that branch of the Christian association which meets there. William K. Vanderbilt, the next son, is the president of the Nickel Plate road, and in the executive board of the Central, but he knows enough to see that the smaller fortunes of himself and his family could be swept away on the bull side of things at present. The fact is that as great as the increase of our country is in population and production, it has not grown as fast as compotition The increase is being perpetually counted by new carrying corporations.

In that capacity he T E P AR AT tho Union and told about his earnest labors at the recent annual reunion in Denver. Now it appears that Gen. Van- dervoort is also chief clerk of the railway mail servico at Omaha and has been draw- ing pay for work which he did not do, Fiy AR T £ quently reported that the mail servico in that section was demoralized by Vander- voort's remissness, but that official paid no heed to such complaints beyond promising that after the soldiers’ meeting at Denver he would come back to Omaha and business, Then, however,the General found himself wear- {ied with patriotic labors and eded with his family to Soda_Springs, Idaho, where he remained until lately removed by Postmaster-General Gresham. Gen, Rosecrans, democrat, and lots of Western I Army men are reported to be hotly gnant at Vandervoort's removal; they allege that the General's repeated and prolonged absences were known and tol erated by the department, and ask why General Gresham should be more strict than his predecessors. The answer is simple enough. The postoflice depart- ment now has at its head an ex-soldier and Grand Army man who is so dil 0t and cientious that he will not tolerate a public ofticer in chronic neglect of duty and disobedience of orders, How McPherson Died. Ramsdell's Letter, L, have still something to sav about Gresham. He was, as you know, him- self in the army—an officer of some rank. He was with Gen.

Arthur seems to moet with general favor, but in my travels about the country lec. turing Thear Lincoln’s name mentioned very often, and he would be a strong can- didate. He has made a good cabinet officer, has kept freeof rings, and is moreover the son of his father. But thero is no scarcity of available men. The Republican party will elect its can- didate, not o much on account of its strength as because it scems to be predes- tined that the Democratsshall remainout of power. The truth is, the business classes of the land are atraid to trust them, and, though they give thema chance off years, when it comes to the pinchand the presidential year comesround they say ‘we had better "let well enough alone,’ and vote the Republican ticket.” “How does Indiana stand?” *Inliana is the closest Statein the Union. It isa shave either way. I don't think McDonald is any stronger than his ticket. Hendricks is perhaps a few votes stronger, but not much, From what I can understand the Democratic majority of 190,000 last year in New York will be cut down to, say 25,000 this year. This will indicate that a strong candidate on the Republican ticket next year can carry it.” Mr. Colfax is iooking in Tsplendid health, and were it not for gray hair he would seem but litte changed from the man who a few years since wasa power on the floor of Congress.
