CHISTER A, ARTHUR, President. By Fran, T. ERELINGHUYSEN, Secretary of State. IN proportion to population Canada has the largest national debt of any gov- ernment in the world. IMPORTANT DECISIONS. Several important and interesting de- cisions were rendered last Monday by the Supreme Court of the United States Among them was one against no loss a fanctionary’ than the President of the United States. The case as reported by telograph was on record fas Choster A. Arthur, Collector, versus Henry Pastor, relating to the proper duty on washed wool. It appears that just before His Excellency was bounced by John Sher- man as Collector of the port of New York he exacted duty on sevoral thou- sand pounds of wool at twenty-six cents per pound while the importer claimed that the tariff only allowed him to col- lect twenty conts por pound. The court holda that the importer's understanding “|of the law is correct, and that the collee- tor erred in apparently assuming that the same number of pounds of unwashed wool would be worth as much as washed wool. The protection of the old tariff to which the construction is given in the above case remains unchanged in the new tariffy o the decision has a present and prospective, as well as retrospective, effoct Another decision that involves a grave subject relates to the rights of suicides to collect life insurance. The Supreme Court helds that self-killing by an insane person, understanding the physical na- ture and consequences of his act, but not its moral aspect, is not death by suicide within the meaning of the condition in a policy of insnrance upon his life, that the policy shall be void in case he shall die by suicide. This decision will be hailed with joy by the cranks who understand the physical nature or the consequences of blowing into the muzzle of a gun that is not loaded, but do not comprehend the moral aspect of the explosion that fol- lows, WaexN the signal service arrives at that degree of perfection that warnings can be given a few hours in advance of torna- does, such destruction of life as that at Springfield, Mo., on Monday, may be ob- viated. Science does not scem strong enough to grapple the tornado problem, As an indication of the rapid- develop- ment of the Southern States the New Orleans Stafes records the fact that in four years the railway mileage has in- creased nine thousand miles, and during the past year seven hundred and twenty- five new postoffices have been established. ONE year ago Sturdevant's majority in Douglas was 1,400. To-day Savage's isa little over half that amount.—Republi- can, 8th, ‘What a stupid liar. The local page of his own paper gives Savage 1,477 majority in Douglas with two precincte to hear from that will increase it to over 1,600. Ta ass that brayed about Judge Sav- age's record will bray no more, forever- more,— Republican. Not in Douglas county where Judge Savage and the ass are best known. Fif- teen hundred majority in a county that gave an average of over 1,000 majority to the Republican candidates on the county ticket would stop the braying of any donkey. " Bexry B, Pavse, of Cleaveland, is said to be Pendleton’s most formidable ocompetitor for the Senatorship. The fact that money will be 1 great factor in the contest, that Pendleton has a large fortune and that Payne has also, besides being connected with the Standard oil monopoly, indicates that the highest bid- der must pay roundly for his election. E——— THE im tion into Nebraska this fall is said to be unprecedented. A con- el SO YL e, o0 near} o ays, —Aan- sas City Jouflwf.m. i Of course immigrants seek the best state in the Union and find it in Ne- braska, Evipextry there is no danger that the old ticket will be renominated. John Kelly's paper, the New York Star, on the day of election said: Tammany Hall has been, and is to-day, and will continue to be, the insurmountable barrier be- tween the Presidency, and such kill-a- sick-horse-that-belongs-to-some-body-else for-his-old-shoes-and-the-carcass politi-. cians as Tilden, Robinson, Hewitt and Cooper, and for that reason—conceeding ‘all ite faults—it is the real friend of labor, and should receive the confidence and support of labor, —— Mr. W. E, ANN1¥, who for nearly five years has been connected with the edi- torial staff of Tue Bre, has severed his connection and entered upon a new field of activity, During more® than three years Mr. Annin has been associate edi- tor and has at various times discharged the arduousand responsible dutiesdevolv- ing of thehead of the editorial department. ‘We part with Mr, Annin with sincere re- gret and hope he has not forever turned his back upon the profession. Few men of his years wield the pen with greater ease and vigor, and no writer in this sec- tion excels Mr. Annin in culture and solid information. Tue Bee contained the call for a meet- ing of the Republican National Commit- tee to select a date and place for holding the Next National Convention. Evi. dentsy an early and aggressive campaign will be opened. The broad and liberal call proposed shows that the party will open " ite doors to all who may come desiring to join in increasing the prosperity and secking to promote the welfare of the whole people. 1t is one of the favorable signs of the times that the matter of can- didates is not yet pressing, and this au- gurs well for a successful campaign, ‘There is no factional quarrelling, and the voices of the representative men of the party, 00 far s they have been heard, ae for the beet man and the one mest ao- weptable to all sections and ull elements. The next case of interest decided was the United States, appellant, versus Joseph W, Fisher, appeal from the Court of Claims. This case is that of tho Chief Justice of Wyoming, whose salary was fixed by the statute at 3,000 per annum. This statute was never at any time repealed, but Congress in legislative, executive, and judical appropriation bills of 1877, 1878 and 1879 appropriated for the salary of the Chief Justice of Wy- oming only $2,600 annually, and added that this should be *‘in full compensation for his services.” Chief Justice Fisher, believing himself 'entitled to the whole 33,000 per annum fixed as the salary of his ofiice by the unrepealed and existing statute, brought suit in the Court of Claims to recover the amount of the de- ficiency, and obtained, pro forma, judg- ment in his favor, The oourt reverses that judgment, but adds, however, thatit does not wish to be understood as deciding now the question .whether the simple failuce by Congroes to appropriate auy or sufficient sum to pay the salary of an ofticer fixed by the premises oflaw, is, of itaelf, an ex- pression of purpose by Congress to re- duce that salary. Tho effect of the pres- ent decision seems to be to confirm the power of Congress to regulate, by means of appropration bil's, and without any separate and specific legislation, all salaries over which it has control, and {to change every year every officer of the government except the President and of- ficers of the Federal Courts, by merely changing the amounts appropriated for payment of the officer, énd adding, that the sum provided shall be in full com. pensation, Ex-Chief Justice Fisher ought to have been lawyer enough to have kept his woather eye on Congress through the honorable delegate of Wyoming, who has nothing to do anyhow but draw his $6,000 annually with regularity and dis- patch. '"HEN AND NOW The campaign that has just closed in Nebraska was a judicial one. There was no great Anti-Monopoly issue as was fought over in the campaign last year, There was nothing to arouse the pro- ducing masses to activity in this contest and it would therefore be unreasonable to make oomparison with last year's re- turns, Then we had to elect three Con- gressmen, & Legislature that was to chose » United States Senator and a full set of State oflicers from Governor down, Now we had simply acontest forSupreme Judge and half a doven District Judges whose nominations were not endorsed by all parties, There was no canvass made and the only excitement was over District Judges and county officials, The legiti- mate comparison of results must be made with the returns of the last judicial elec- tion when the same claes of officers were voted for. At that election Samuel Maxwell, the Republican candidate for Supreme Judge, received 04,802 votes, and William H, Munger, his - Demo- cratic opponent, received 20,0063 votes. Judge Maxwell was therefore elected by amajority of 34,339 votes. It is safe to say that M, B. Reese, the Republican candidate for Supreme Judge this year, has fallen fully 30,000 votes behind the majority of Judge Maxwell. What a fall was there, my countrymen! Can Republican leaders still blind themselves to the fact that the party ranks have been fearfully decimated by the railroad rot. Let them look the facts squarely in the face by comparing this year's returns with those of two years ago, when the issues of the campaign were identical, Look at the figures as they stare them in the face: Adams county, which gave Max- well 1063 majority, gives Roese only 460; Boone ceunty gave Maxwell 052, Reese less than 100; Buffalo gave Maxwell 950, Reose, 400; Burt gave Maxwell 668, Reese, 111; Cass, which gave Maxwell 684, is against Reese by 87;Clay gave Maxwell 806, Reese, & fraction over 400; Douglas gave Maxwell 321, and goes ever 1,600 against Reese, & lose of over 1,800 votes in one county; Fillmore gave Maxwell 1,264, gives Reese 350; Gage gave Max- woll 2,180 majority, Reese, a fraction over 100; Maxwell carried Hall county by 0602 majority, and it now goes against Reese by 200; Hamilton gave Maxwell 673 and goes against Reese by 12, Jefferson gave Maxwell 687, againat Reese by over 100, Lancaster, Maxwell 1820, Reese 1160; Nemaha, Maxwell 680, Reese about 50; Pawnoe, Maxwell 988, Reese 201; Polk, Maxwell 985, goes against Roese by 247; Saline, Maxwell 1006, goes against Reese by over 200; Thayer, Maxwell 941, goon ngainst Reese by about 15 Webster, Maxwell 1043, Reese 500; York, Maxwell 1923, Reese 665. These are the principal Republican counties in which the party rolled up its 34,000 ma- jority two years ago. They farnish proof of the revolt wmong the Republi- can masses against abuses which the party machinery in the hands of monop- oly cappers has inflicted upon this state. THERE are some reforms suggested by the late election that should be made be- fore we enter upon another campaign. One of these is in the location of polling places. The laws of this State expressly prohibit the sale of liquor on election day, and the keeping open of a saloon on election days in violation of the law forfeits the liconse; but the mayor of Omaha and he county commiseioners, who are supposed to be law-abiding citi- zens, and as officers should take an inter- est in sustaining the laws, have set the example of lawlessness by locating the voting places in four out of the six city precinets in a saloon or next door to a saloon. Voters were compelled to go through bar-rooms crowded with drunken and drinking men, and candidates were almost compelled to treat voters who are addicted to drinking., It may be that the law closing saloons on election day will have to remain a dead letter until some innocent citizen is slaughtered at the polls by drunken rowdies, but some re- spect ought to be paid to the law by the law officers when they locate the voting places. ANorrER hundred thousand dollars of paving bonds has boen voted. This means that four hundred thousand dol- lars will be expended in Omaha for street paving next season. In other words the city will invest $100,000 for paving the intersections of streets and the property on the streets to be paved will contribute $300,000 for paving the streets. After all this will not be a very heavy burden upon the property owners. They have five years in which to pay their paving tax. Besides the $400,000 there will be ful- ly $100,000 paid out next spring for pav- ing already under contract and for which bonds had been voted last year. Half amillion dollars in solid public improve- ments will be a very nice beginning for 1884. There is no doubt now that Omaha will expend & million dollars for grading, paving and sewerage within the next twelve months. We may safely count upon two or three millions more to | be planted upon Omaha soil next year in the shape of factories, warehouses, ele- vators, store buildings and dwellings. The outlook for Omaha is very bright, in fact brighter than that of any other city west of the Mississippi. THE voters of this county have reject- ed the proposition submitted by the county commissioners to sell the old court house by such an overwhelming majority that it is not lkely that the scheme will be revived for some years to come. Thisis certainly no time for the city or county to sell the few valuable lots that remain undisposed of. The city will soon need a commodious, fire- proof city hall and city offices. The old oourt house site, located on the crossing of the two principal thoroughfares of Omaha is admirally adapted for such a structure, but even if we should not locate the city hall on that site, it would be folly to sell the property now when weknow of almost absolute certainty that it will double or treble in value in the next five years. ArrER refusing to be interviewed by Boston reporters, Ben Butler received a telegram from a Pittsburg paper and re- tired to his closet to meditate. The gist of his response is that Ben Butler is the the bardost man to defeat that Massachu- setts at least can furnish. Ben has that wicked eye on the Democratic nomina- tion for the Presidency, and ‘*‘bobs up serenely” amid the avalanche of votes against him, EEE——— 1t is rather cruel on the part of the Republican to sneer at Mr, Colby’s de- feat. Mr, Colby was the regular Repub- lican nominee in a diatrict that gave Gar- | 4 field over 3,000 majority. He was sup- ported by the Reptblican with all the vigor at its command, He has been do- feated by 3,600 majority and should have the sympathy of his supporters instead of their jeers. TrE juveniles who edit the Republi- can have hoisted their roosters and done a good deal of loud crowing over wn imaginary vietory, Crowing will de- ceive nobody. The fact remains that a State whichigave Garfield 26000 majerity thrse years ago and Maxwell two years ago, 34,339, has given M., B, Reese about 4,000 majority, Mr. Marone will be exoused for fail- ing to carry Virginia for the Readjusters, Wide Awake Druggists. €, ¥, Goodman is Always alive in bis busi.
