The people of that region are in armos against the rail- woad land-sharks, Forr Garraxn, Colorado, will be dis- <continued on the 1st of December, and thus another old frontier land-mark, rich in border history, romance and tragedy, will pass away. Now thet the trade dollar has disap- peared from circulation, and got inty the hands of money-brokers and Shylocks, <ongress will be asked to redeem the un- eemmercial coin at one hundred cents on the dollar. A compact lobby will be on hand this wintor at Washington to put the job through. Waere is Chairman Dorsey with his vevised returns? His first estimate was from 12,000 to 15,000 majority for Reeso. His next estimate was from 8,000 to 10,- 000. His last was from 7,000 to 7,500. And now it turns out that Reese has less than 4,400 majority. A change of 2,200 votes would have elected Savage. Tur exemption laws of Dakota are be- ing severely criticised, for fostering fraud on the part of debtors. Several cases have occurred lately in which Chicago merchants have been heavy losers, while their debtors made money by failing or 4'gelling out,” and that, too, almost immediately after receiving large con- signments of goods, which were partly purchased on credit, Tae Chicago Zribune has recently ‘been improve.. in more ways ihan one. Its new type givos the paper a very bright and clean appearance, but the most notable improvement isin the qual- ity and quantity of its reading matter and special dispatches. The Zribune is a representative American newspaper, and is second to none in the United States, A Cricaco workman writing to the Tvibune on the problem of over-produc- tion and business stagnation, reaches the following conclusion: *“The time has come when the generul government must either kick up another war or undertake gigantic systems of internal improve- mont, and certainly the latter is prefera- ble to the former.” This is decidedly suggeslive, and ought to furnish our great slatesmen, who are about to con- gregate at Washington, food for serious reflection. Ir the police force of Omaha were more vigilant and attentive to their du. ties there would be some sense in in. , creasing the number, but to enlarge the force without adding to the efliciency would be a very foolish pieco of busineas, There are: some good men now on the force, but every member ought to bea thoroughly efficient officer. The manner in which policomen are selected is all wrong. They are generally made police- men on account of some political services that they or ther friends have rendered to the mayor or councilmen who have the appointing power, and not on account of their fitness. A little civil service re- form is needed in the police department, Tug cattle men of the west have had a very prosperous season this year, and their prospects never looked brighter, Thé beof market has ranged higher for western cattle than in any previous year, aund has proved satisfactory for all ship- pers, The tendency of the times is to pwland consolidate different interests, anl thus concentrate power and wealth. ‘The cattle men are no exception to this sule, They have already bunched a large number of small herds into extensive comp v ies, and all the smaller interests will be soon entirely absorted, The cat: le men by the consolidations already ac- complished have been enabled to regu- late the market to suit themse'ves and to govern their shipments, which this yerwr hae been so managed as not to overfloo| the mer'cet at ary cno time. This myy be & very good thing for the , but not so for the censumer of beef, who will from this time have to pay higher prices than ever. The cattle kings will soon be able to cope with the cattle railrond kings and dictate terms TAKING CARE OF THE I'{DIANS, Forty years ago the Indinas, ocoupying a vast domain in the statoa of Georgis, Alabama and Mississippi, entered into a treaty with the govifnment, whereby they were transferred %o the Tndian Ter- ritory, west of Arkansas and south of what is the state of Kanssas. The tribes who wade this treaty etipulated for themselves that the lands allotted tothem should be subdivided in weveralty. As a result of this treaty the Cherokees, Choctaws, Cresks and Chickasaws hsve bocome self sustaining. They have celti- vated plantations ani farms for more than twen'y years, waised orops, Huilt churches and sehool houses, and observed the habits of civilived people. It is propased by Secretary Teller, in his forthcoming raport, that this plan of making the Indian self-sustaining be car- ried out among the semi.barbarous tribes weat of the Missouri river, The secretary proposes to make eweeping recormenda- tions for cutting down the resecvations, and for giving to each Indian his portion of the land in severalty. While the treaties heretofore made have set apart vast tracts of land em- bracing millions upon millions of acres, the policy of withholding these lands from settlement, when the Indians can- not possibly eultivate them or make practical use of them, must sooner or later bo abandened. The fact that the Indians can no longer subsist by hunting the buffalo, compels them to adopt the new mode of living altogether. Roam- ing about at random with no ebject ex- cept plundering scttlers, or stealing from each other, must cease tobea pastime. The Indian should now be made to take care of himself. Congress must take the iniative step to put him in that condi- tion. It must first discharge its just obligations due to the Indian in former treaties. Secretary Teller says that there is over $1,000,000 due and unpaid to the Sioux, for school purposes, under the treaty of 1868, Tho treaty agrecment on this point was that the United States would support a school in that *‘mation” for every thirty children of age to attend school The secretary says this agreo- ment has been violated because congress refused or neglected to make the neces- sary appropriations. There can be no excuse for this neglect on the plea of inability, for every year since 1868 there has been a surplus of receipts over expenditures ranging from 30,000,000 to $126,000,000. The government italsoappears from the secrotary’s forthcoming report, stands in debt one cow, one yoke of oxen and 8100 worth of teols and farming utensils to each of 25,000 Sioux families by the neglect of congress to make the needful appropriations for the execution of this part of tho treaty of 1868, Tuasmuch as the government obligated itself by solemn treaty to furnish these supplies it is in Honor bound to carry out the agreement as far as it can be done 1t behooves congress now to take a new departure in dealing with these Indians, and place them on & footing,that will en- able them to take care ef themselves. The building of _railroads and the crowd- ing forward of the frontior settlers will soon solve the Indian problem for us, even if congress fails to do its duty. PAVEMENTS, The problem of pavements is one that continues to interest as well as puzzle many of the [leading cities, the ques- tions involved being cost, durability and cleanliness. It is safe to say that Omaha has selected the two best pavements— stone and asphalt. It is fortunate that she did not make the mistake of putting down wooden pavements, which were once 80 popular. In the first place it has been proven that wood is not a durable pavement, and now it is shown that it is not a healthful material for paving pur- poses. Tho health ofticer of Detroit, in reply to a resolution of the city council requesting his opmion on the healthful ness of wood pavements, says: ““The hygienic objections to wood pav- ing are very grave,” and quotes from M. Toussaquois, professcr of hygiene at Montpelior, France, to the effect that a ‘hygienist cannot look favorably upon a stroet covering consisting of & porous substance capable of absorbing organic matter, and by its own decomposition giving Tise to noxious miasm, which, pro- coeding from 80 large a surface, cannot be regarded as insignificant.’ He says: ‘I am convinced that a city with a damp climate, paved entirely with wood, would s0on hecome a city of marsh fevers.’ “The joints of a block pavement,” says Gen, Gilmore, *‘conatitute fully one-third of the entire area; and under the average care the surface of filth ex- posed to evaporation covers three-fourths of the entire street, The foul organic matter is held in the joints, ruts and gut- ters where it undergoes putrefactive fer- mentation in warm, damp weather, and effluvium, or it floats in the atmosphere of unwholesome dust, irritating to the oyes and poisonous to the orgaus of res- piration.” The Detroit health commissioner quotes several other authorities, whose opinions are all to the same eftect, among the unumber being Dr. Fordyce Barker, of New York, and Prof. Wm. H, Brower, an eminent chewist, of Yalo college. The commissioner protests strongly against wooden pave- ments, and with regard to the stone pave- -|them save their noisiness, which he thinks is a great obstacle to the recovery pavement, ho says it answers all sanitary requirements, that is acted on. by the acid or alkaline solvents of liquid filth, firm, durable, yet elastic and s oth pavem t, repairs, and next to stono lasts longest of any kind. becomes the fruitful source of noxious|* and penetrates the dwelling in the form hf ments ho sees nothing objectionablo to of many patients, As to sheet asphalt It contains no materis 1t is tenacious, Iu is less noisy than even wooden block 1t costs less thau stone for 1t is comparatively impervieus to liquids It is free from dust and TH® DAILY BEE-~OMAH \, THURSDAY, NOVEMBLR 22, 1883. can be cleaned by water as easily aea china plate. The sheet asplalt can be adapted to an old pavement of stone or a wnwcadam rond-bed as well as to w special layer of hydraulic concrete. No pave- ment can be 8o perfectly mended when out into by plumbers, As 65 to 70 per centof sand enters into its composition, it affords good footing for horses. It com municates no vibrations to the adjoining buildings, th veakening and dis- integrating their stracture. It groat cost of wear and tear to animals and vehicles. Tt makes so gmooth a sur- face that stroet railway companies could substitute on it herdic coaches, in a great measure, for clumsy cars, to the great re- lief of the people. saves TWENTY.-FOUR HOUR CLOCKS. The adoption of the new standard time by the raifrends has caused & new de- partare in the reckoning of time. For centuries peoplo hgve boon accustomed to number the hours at from 1 to 12, and then duplioate them to fill out the 24 hours that make up a day. Amon 24 o'clock system is the Detroit Evening Journal, It's three editions, issued at 3 and b p. . respoctively, are headed *14 o'clock,” ‘16 e'clock,” and ‘17 o'clock” editions. All through its dis- patches, local newsitems, advertisements, ots., the hotira are taatked acoording to the 24 o'clock method. A man arriving at home at 11 o'clock at night would be there at 23 o'clock. The noon hour re- mains the same as heretofore, 12 o'clock, and 6 p. m. would be 18 o'clock. The count begins at 1 o'clock in the morning, and continues around the dial once in 24 hours, instead of twice as heretofore. This practical method does away with a. m. and p. m,, and when under the new system the hour is announced we will know exactly what time it is, without the above affixes. We believe the new system will soon come into general use, as it is already meeting with a favorable consideration by the public. Of course this will cause a temporary boom in the manufacture of clocks and watches, as new dials, if not new works, will have to be made for the 24 hour sys- tem. One plan ruggested divides the dials into 120 minutes, instead of 60 as heretofore, thereby causing the hour- hand to make only one complete revolu- tion in & day. Another plan places the numerals 1n two concentric circles, those from 13 to 24, inclusive, being placed in- side the figures from 1 to 12 on the same radial lines. Tt has also been suggested that an improvement on both these methods may be effected by means of twin dials, the thin outer one to contain twelve perforations through which the numerals on the inner one will show By means of a simple mechanical device either of these dials may be automatically shifted at the end of every twelfth hour, 80 that one sct of figures will be d played from noon till midnight, and the other from midnight till noon. By this simple devico clock diais would retain their present form and divisions, yet would show the houra consecutively from 1to 24, However, the 24-hour plan can be used with the present time pieces by sunply substracting 12, when the hour is beyond that figure.

The president of the Jersey Central rail. rond has rocently threwn some light on the methods adopted by some railroad corporations to evade their just taxes, A report was presented to him which showed net earnings amounting to about 5,000,000; but he explained that it had been merely made for purposes of taxa- tion, He said the real carnings of the roal were between $11,000,000 and $12,. 000,000, but, by making up & report *in strit accordance with the law,” they were made to appear at about one-half the real amount, Dauviel O'Connell used to boast that he could drive a coach-and. four through almost any act of the Brit- ish parliument, but this feat of President Little~-that of driving locomotives and whole trains of oars throwgh a state statute—beats it all hollow. e . Tue Omana volunteer fire department has virtually gone to pieces. There is nothing left of it except a few straggling members, who descrve credit for contin- uing to do their duty, Some stormy night a serious fire will ocour and then Omaha will become convinced thata well- equipped and paid department is a neces sity. But why wait until a conflagration demonstrates this fact! The time to act is now, and not a day should be lost. The present foree of firemen is perhaps suffi- cient to handle an ordinary fire on a calm day, but what Omaha needs and must have is a paid number of men who will be present at every fire. Chief Engineer Butler has urged the city council to take action in this matter, but so farthey have paid little or no attention to it. One of his suggestions is that a number of min- ute men should be employed to attend every fire, and that they should be paid for such attendance. This is a good idea but in addition to this the numberof reg- ular monthly salaried men should be in- creased. A city of 50,000 people cannot afford to depend up-n a volunteer fire de- partment. The business men, whose property is at stake, will find by a little investigation that under the present state of affairs they are daily running great risks,and they should call upon the coun- cil by petition or otherwise, and demand an immediate re-organization of the fire department on a paid basis with a view to its thorough efliciency. Evcese Fiero, of the Chicago News, has this to say of Indian Agent Wilcox: “Indian Agent Wilcox has had a serious quarrel with Gen. Crook because the latter rofuses to hang twelve Indians, who have offended the agent. If Mr. Wilcox has ever done anything for his country, except draw pay for a soft snap, he is perhaps entitled to some considera- tion. If the popular opinion of the man is a right one, twenty of his kind could stand abreast on the small end of a cambric needle and not complain of being crowded.” L GRESHAM is con- tinuing Lis war on frauds. He is now making it warm for the pension sharks His recent order to postmasters, not to furnish lists of names to pension agents at Washington, and not to distrioute their circulars unless addressed to indi- viduals, will meet with general approval, and have a tendency to check the syste- matic frauds that are being practiced on ex-union soldiers and their widows and orphans.
