Our ““Val” has bought out a drug atore in West Point, and he will now be ablo to take his own medicine. Tur Herald calls it ‘A Sunday Snap.” Correct! Col. F'rank P, Hanlen and those Union Pacific fellows are noted for hunt- ing up soft snaps on Sundays, if they oan't catch on during week days. CouncitMay Mc(iuvokes, in voting against the bolt railway ordinance, got himself right on the record for once. This was doubtless due to the fact that the “Union Pacific did not need his vote. Tay least that the Union Pacific can do.for the eight councilmen, who voted to give away California and Fifteenth stroets, is to issue to those councilmen life passes over the belt railway. TaE canvass of the returns was made on Monday, but our enterprising cotom- porary, the Lincoln Journal, fails to make any menticn of it. Are they still waiting for the returns from Custer coun- ty to give Roese that 10,000 majority ? We have fallen wupon degenorato timos, A famous pedestrian came to Omaha, all the way from New York, a few days ago, to throw down his chal- Iunge to the fleetest Omahoss for a six- day-go-as-you-please walk, but not a bite dii he get. Just as soon as the Indian question is fairly put before congress woexpect to see Sitting Ball, Red Cloud and other well- fed savages on their annual proces- sion, at Uncle Samuel's expense, to visit the Grea' Fa‘her and partake of his ‘bountiful hospital ty. Tae fire department did somo splendid work at the Gentleman grocery fire in keeping it within the limits of the frame building, The run down the Sixteenth street pavement was probably the quick- est over madoe in this city, and this shows one important advantage of paved streets. ——— AN important discovery of asphalt is #aid to have been made and practically tosted with extraordinarily satisfactory results. The depgeit is in the nataro of a lake in the Isle of Trinidad, on the South American coast.—Philadelphia Lress, Where have you been all this time? Have you never been in Washington or Omaha, where thero are miles of asphalt pavement? Hxer's an opportunity for Hon. W. A. Gwyer, whose ambition has often di- rected his thoughts towards far-off Alaska. It is reported that Alaska will 89 before congress demanding o simple, dnexpensive territorial government, It is claimed that she is utterly without law, that there is no security for prop. erly eave the protection afforded by brute force, and there is no punishment for crime, Mr. Gwyer could straighten out affairs in Alaska if ho had the title of governor conferred upon him, Evexy paved stroet should be covered by the fire limit, and this ‘applies to Six- teenth stroot, which is now one of the leading business thoroughfares, The fire limit ordinance should be immediately amended 80 as to take in this strect from the north sewer south to Howard street, The crdinance should also be made to cover South Thirteenth stroet, and South Teuth street, as far south as the Union Pacific main track. Omaha can no lon- ger afford to have tinder-boxes erected within the busiucss portions of the city, aad the extonsion of the fire limit should keop pace with the extension of business, It isa matter of absoluto necessity for the protection of the valuable structures already evocted, which are liable to be #wept away on some stormy day by fires originating in frame blocks, and even the brick buildings sheuld bo carefully in- spected, s there hawe beeit some brick buildings erccted here that are fully as dangerous as woolen bells, "TIw-a An important decision has just been rendered by $he supreme court of Tlli- nois regarding the liability of & munici- pal corporation for negligowca of its volanteer fire department. ‘The owner of a wagon mued the city of Chicago to re- cover dameges for injurics suffered by a 9 hook and ladder truck of the city fire departmeat colliding with his carringe through the negligence of the driver of the truck, and the court gave jndgement for the city, on tho ground that there was no liability on its part for the conduct of The plaintif carried the caso—Wilcox va, city of Chicago— to the supreme court of Tllinois, where tho Judge Walker, the freman, judgement was affirmed. in the opinion, said: The relation of doea not exist between a municipal cor- poration and a member of its fire depart ment. The city has no particular inter- eat in tho service; it derives no special benefit from it in its corporate capacity; the members of the department, although appointed by the city, are not the agents or the servants of the city, for whose conduct it is liable, Lut they act rather »8 officers of the city, charged with a public service, for whose negligence in the discharge of official duty no_action lios againat the city without being ex- pressly given, and the maxim of respon- dent superior has, thereforo, no applica- tion, In favor of the doctrine, it may be that an additional, if not more satis- factory, reason for its adoption, and ren- dering it an exception to tho genoral rule, may be found in public policy. If linble for neglect in this case, the city must be held liable for every neglect in that de- partment, and every employe connected with it, whon acting within the line of duty. 1t would subject the city to the opinions of witnesses and jurors whether suflicientdispatch was used in reaching the fire after the alarm was given; whether the employes had exercised the requisite sk Il for its extinguishment; whether a sufficient force had been provided to secure safoty; whether the city had pro- vided proper engines and other appli- ances to answer the demands of the bazzards of fire in the city; and many other things might be named which would form the subjoct of legal controversy. To permit recoveries to bo had for all such and other acts would virtually ren- dor the city an insurer of every person’s property within the limits of its jurisdic- tion. While this decision is in many respects of the utmest importance to towns and cities, where injuries by accident or neg- ligence during a fire are of frequent oc- currence, it makes a precedent that will doubtless bo followed by tho courts everywhe THE MARK JHOUSE, With a population of fifty thousand, Omaha is still without a market house, For more’ than ten years wo have heard the very best of roasons advanced for the building of a market house, but all the talk has resulted in nothing, Aud yet a market houso where con- sumers can deal directly with producers is & most vital necessity for Omaha, We may stimulate the city’s growth by public improvements,and a certain class of man- ufacturers may flourish in spita of high priced Living, but we cannot rely upon a healthy, steady growth, unless we give working people & chanco to buy their vogatables, eggs, butter, and meats in open market. The proposition to es- tablish a market house on Capitol ave- nue is a good one. The location is cen- tral and the stroet is wider than any other thoroughfare. A commodious market house can be orected in the cen- ter and if the roadway is not wide enough —twenty or thirty teet on ench side could bo added by purchase from lot owners. Their lots will bo worth more 100 feot doep than they now are, but if any of them persist in opposing such a‘needed improvement, the property can be taken for the public use by paying them its appraised value, While it would be foolish economy to erect a mero wooden shed for a market house, the building need not be very costly. A §30,000 market house wilt sorve all the purposes for the noxt ten years and ad- ditions can always be built as the necés- sity for enlargement arisos, Tho first thing to be done is for tho council to locate the market grounds and acquire by donation or purchase such additional ground as may be needed to afford all the necessary space for the convenience of traflic and travel, When that is done there will be no trouble in raising the money to build the market house by a vote of the people authorizing the issue of bonds, —_— Tur property owners of Dodge streot are roported as favoring round cedar blocks for paving, 1t is hoped that they will not make such a serious mistake, Wooden pavement has been tried in the largo citics, and has proved a failure in overy respect. 1t has been shown that'it is expensive, that it is not durable, and that it is not healthful. The business portion of Dodge street eught to be uni- form with tho other streets, and if the residence portion cannot afford to pave with granite block, they ought to try limestone macadam with & topping of broken Sioux Falls granite, which would be durable, and easier for travel on a steep grade than any other. One great trouble with wood is that unless it has & concrete foundation the blocks will sink and the pavement will soon become uneven, If Jaid on conerete it is exponsive, and the water collects between the concrete and the wood, thus rotting the blocks in a very short time, The decay of the wood begins almost as soon as the blocks are laid down, and grows worse and worse from year to year. This decay breeds germs of discase, and sends forth an offensive odor, which has a pernicious effect upon the public health. This is the conclusion reached where wood is cheap, and even where a large portion of the moisture is absorbed by a sandy soil, On Omaha soil the woisture would be re: tained until it evaporated. With the materis's all to be brought from a die- tance, it is conclusive tlat the best, as pa— master and servant | VALV D AR EE PR LR B PR THE DAILY BEL--OMAII\, WEDNELDAY, NOVEMB TIPS v on well as the most economic pavements, are stcne blocks and asphalt. As a matter of fact,the stone block on the hillside would be the cheapest as well as the best. The rondways on the hillside are narrow, and the expense to lot owners will not be burdensome, eapecially as they have five years to pay the assessment. Stone blocks would last from fifty to oné hun- dred years, or even longer, They can be re-laid at very little expense,and the first tax is virtually the last tax. | Kaseas Crrv is considerably exercised avor the fact that diseased meats have been sold in her markets, and steps have beon taken to put a stop to the villainous business and to prosecute those engaged in it. What is needed and demanded at Kansas City is an honest and strict in- apector of live stock at the stock yards. A carload of cattle or hogs after a long run will generally contain one or more dead, wounded, or disoased, and it seems to have been the pragtice to immediately dispose of such stock to certain butchers, who have retailod the meat fo their cus. tomers. An inspector faithfully per- forming his duty would soon put a stop to this. This kind of business is liable to be carried on at any peint where stockyards are located. Last summer an Omaha butcher was detectod in selling such meats to his customers. He was in the habit of purchasing from the Union stockyards at Council Bluffs, wounded cattle, or cattle that had been acciden- tally killed, and selling the meat over his counter. He was not punished for the offense, as ho claimed that the meat was all healthy, although there was o division of opinion on this point among those who examined the carcassen found in his pos. seasion. However, he was thoroughly frightened, and promised not to handle any more meat of that kind. Too much precaution cannot bo taken against the ssle of such meat, and our health officers should be ever watchful in this matter, Tk weather clerk scems to have dealt out his favors with unusual impartiality. New York has been favored withas much Indian summer as we have here in Ne- braska. Last Sunday's issue of the New York Star comments upon the fair but unseasonable weather as follows: “The melancholy days have come, the saddest of the year—except to the dec- tors, Indian summer is one of those seasons which sound very exquisite and dolightful in poetry, but when Indian summer comes at the end of November it is tolorably certain to bring in its train o long list of croup, diphtheria and other ills which accrue fromdampness and mug- giness. For the last four days New Yo has had Indian summer in a most malig- nant form. It has shown itself in wet and muddy streots and a muggy humidity of the atmosphere which, while it has made the doctors glad, has ‘made the average citizen wheeze. It is not at all the Iudian summer that fancy paints, but a very disagreeablo practical realization of nostrums and » discomfort. A good, honest snowstorm would be very wel come. ¥ A THRIVING TOWN, The Steady Growth of Madison—The Intlux of Home-Seekers, Correspondence to The Bee, Manison, Neb., November 24.—Madi- son is a thriving little village on the Nor- folk branch of the Union Pacific railroad, It is situated thirty-five miles from Columbus, and thirteen miles from Nor- folk, and has at present one thousand in- habitants, and the population . is rapidly increasing by the influx of newcomers from the east, many of whom are ar ving now and hunting new homes for them- selves, And as an evidence of our pros- pereity, will just give a fow items, prorai- nent among which’ is the fact that Madison has a hand fire engine and is fust orgunizing _firo company with 8.

Have not the people of this nation, al- ready hroken up the party lines?

Hamil. ton, York, Beward, Howard, &¢, where- ever you go, nearly the sime state of things exists, Platt of Hall county, who wes talked of as & candidate for the oftice of district Judge, on the democratie ticket, worked heartily that the present jurisdiction of the federal courts should be so restricted as to place it back to where it was fixed by the act of congress of September 24, 1789, “to establish judicial courts of the United States. If the democracy of the states and the Union could be induced to adopt and maintain these doctrines in their state and national platforms and in the selection and election of candidates to office, with unwavering and unfaltering devotion in defeat as_ well as victory, we should undoubtedly succeed in preser: - ing the constitution of the United State:, and in sustaining our constitutional fori of free, popular self-government, to bless our own people, and to cheer and encour- age the balance of the civilized world in lo for liberty and happiness, and I do not doubt that such principles adopted and faithfully adhered to would load the democracy fo enduring victory and to the pecmanent control of the fed- eral governmens. While, on the other hand, if the democracy shall continue to pursue, as it now does in some parts of the Union, a timid, time-serving and half hearted policy; if it shall m ke ita princi- ples half republican and half democratic; if it shall be divided between the support of a high protective tarifl, railroad mono- polies, national banks. and other class in- terests on one side and the support of the rights of the people as against these on the other, then nothing but defeat, humiliation and dishonor await it, and it had as well regard its mission in Ameri- can politics as ended. Tt is essential to the interests of the democracy, to the welfare of the people, and to the per- petuity of our republican form of government that our party should 1epro- bite and treat with scern the idea that elections are to bo controlled by money, and the public policy shaped in the inter- osts of money. The useoi money in popular elections debauches.und degrades the people, makes them forget prneiple, duty and honor, and utterly unfits h m far self-government.
