Now that:Chieago has heon selected by the national eommittee, the Logan boom begins to take shape. Wuks Mr. Holdredge gots his blade sharpened it will cut as deep a gash in railroad rates as his father-in-law’s bowie knife. Sunason Van Wycek is still inquisitive, He wants to know how much it costs Uncle Bam for special and assistant at- torneys and detectives. Are you there, Mr. ‘Bliss! Srsaron Saniy has been made chair- man of the republican national committee in place of the late Gov. Jewell. Mr. Sebin comes from good fighting stock. It wae the Sabines who made Rome how]. Far Ohio man was taken in by an I11li nois sucker.

O'Hana, (colored), of North Carolina, made himself heard in the national re- ipublican committee by urging harmony among the colored voters and white re- publicans of the south, - O'Hara is the first Irish republican of the colored per- suasion, and does the: Emerald TIsle proud. Tue Republican persists in discussing every subject with ‘‘Rosewater.” Tur Bee deals with public questions as a journal, and discusses them with The Republican as a cotemporary. 1£ Fred, Nye wants to debate anything with Rose- water let him hire a hall. Ty carpet-bag gentry who represent the republican party of the south for rev- enue only don't want the sectional line drawn in the national convention, Most of these political warts will be on hand again at Chicago, as they were four years ago, selling their delegate tickets for five dollars apiece. \ — Tux effects of dime nevel literature haa again been demonstrated. . This time at Milwaukee, where, four lads, each about 13 years ot age, formed a Buffalo Bill combination and established a pi- rates' den. One of them confesses that they .have within a month started seventeen fires in the Fourth.ward. New York made a powerful plea, for the -Saratoga hotels. Senator Wood- pulp Miller insisted that New:York was entitled to a , national corvention, and that Saratoga was just the place to hold it. Mr. Judson, not Ned Buntline, said that Saratoga would not only. carry New York, but furnish the means to carry all the doubtful states. Mr. Judson prob- ably. had in view a general deluge of {Ohia, Indiana and New Jorsey with con- gregs, water from the Saratogs .springs. —_—— In is rather vefreshing to read the sage utterances of railroad subordimates in these parts regarding the true inwardness of the. tripartite ppol, when we “tknow enough to know” that they kuow no more about the plans of the railroad kings than the messengers at headyuar- ters.

Now that the French chamber of dep- ] uties has voted the appropriation for con- ducting the wat in"Tonquin, France has taken her position and served formal notice upon China that she will not re cede. 1f waris to be averted China must cither back down or the diplomacy of other nations must devise the way for anhonorable adjustment of the differ- ences. Diplomacy is proverbially ted- jous in its methods, but diplomacy in this case will have the approbation of all . [ nations which have commercial relations with China. It is not astonishing that Engliand has felt called upon to offer her triendly services toward healing the breach between the French and Chinese governments. The commercial inter- course of China is mainly with the United Kingdom and the British colon- ies. It was English diplomacy and Eng- lish armies that first opened China to the world, and the queen’s government has reaped the chief benefit from the treaties which threw open the twenty-two ports to commerce, In 1872 the total exports from China to Great Britain amounted to more than $76,000,000, and the im- ports from England into China to nearly A war with France would mean the immediate closing of all the treaty ports, and a general warfare against every class of the foreign devils, by which name all Europeans are indiscriminately designat- ed in the Flowery Kingdom. It is a knowledge of the difficulty of proventing other interngtional complieations in case of the outbreak of hostilities between France and China, which has made the Tonquin dispute and its possible ending of such general importance. For Chinas military and naval equipment is by no means to be despised. The government expends £75,000,000 a year in the sup- port of the army which is well equipped and drilled and furnished with the best ordenance which Krupp manufactures. The standing military force of China consists of two great divisions, the first formed by the more immediate subjects of the ruling dynasty, the Tartar, and the second by the Chinese and other subject races. The Tartar forces are used chiefly as a constabulary in the va- rious departments of the empire. The purely Chinese army is distinct from this force, and is mainly composed of natives of China disiributed among the provin- ces and amounting in all to over a mil- lion men. It is estimated that by calling out the “Manchu constabulary, all of which are drilled and equipped as soldiers, 2,000,000 troops could be put in the field by the government. The Chinese navy contains in all about sixty vessels of various kinds, armed with 300 guns. Since. 1876 the government has been calling upon European ship yards for the best class of vessels of de- fonse. . From 1877 to 1879 twelve gun- boats of 1,450 tons displacement were manufactured for China in England, and since that time four heavy ram cruisers have been added to the list. Gorman officers have taught seamanship and gun- nery to Chinese sailors, and in case of the outbreak of war the navy would be well able to make a stubborn defense of Chinese seaport and the Chinese coast. These are facts which Franre is now considering. . (ireed for territory and colonial extension in Asia has raised the spectre of .another foreign war. The French people with all their wonderful recuperative energy have not sufficiently recovered from the effects of the crime of 1870 to applaud another conflict, with glory alone as the aim, and with debt and loss of human life as the certain re- sult. — Tux Omaha board of trade ought to be re-organized on general principles. The time has passed when it was a necessity to confer membership promiscuously on clerks, lawyers, . doctors, army officers, peanut venders, and men without any visible occupation. Omaha is becoming a mercantile center, and merghants, manu- facturers, grain dealers, pork packers, cattle men and bankers are numerous enough to make a beard of trade that would compare favorably with the boards of trade of other citics, 1tis wasting precious time and lowering the dignity of the buard 0 be harassed and embarrassed by harangues from cranks and blatherskites who have got into the hoard of trade to give themselves airs, fight windmills, and ventilate their Col. #allers’ schemes. The Omaha club was a little too aristocratic and expensive for business, but we do need a board of trade and.chamber of commerce where business mea gnay meet for business purposes.

On Thursday morning the sleopy Republican awoke from its trance and gave a rehash of the matter s a piece of fresh news. REGULATION OF FREVGHT RATES. A fow years ago every man who de- manded that railrosd freight rates be rogulated by law waa called a crank Now the country is full of cranks, From Maine to Colorado and from Texas to Oregen the people* demand, with no un- certain voice, that the nation and state shall regulate railroad rates. Colorado now lifts up its voice against railrond discriminations. The Denver Tribune, ‘in behalf of the people of Colorado, says: There is no longer any question in the mind of any person but that the next state legislature should pass some defin- ite and decisive bill on the subject of freight rates. Hitherto the argument against this has been that such legisla- tion would interfere with the construc- tion of new lines, bnt this no longer has any value. The people of Colorado have suffered long _enough because of this po- sition, and now they want some real relief. We should not advise that this relief come in the shape of legislation forbidding pooling, because the uniformity secured by a pooling ar- rangement is rather a protection than an balf that sum, while the —imports )y ;0% i archants, but there should be to all countries in 1881 footed |y dofinite method of reducing rates per- up o total of §06,000,000. |fected. Whether this can be secured by a railway commission or by other means remains to be seen. Legislation en the subject should be careful and intelligent, and be as just to the railroads as to the shippers, There is plenty of time to discuss the question, however, and it is worthy the S lBUNbA}Y THeVAMOBNE)OF money paid by Colorado to railroads is enormous-—double in proportion to the population than that paid by any other state in the Union.” Colorado may be satisfied with a com- mission to right her wrongs, but the people of Nebraska want maximum rates fixed by laws to restrain the robbers, and they ought not to be compelled to wait until the next legislature either. If the governor of Nebraska had the remotest desire to fulfill the pledges which were made during the last year's campaign in behalf of his party he would convene the legislature this winter and call upon it to pass a bill that will afford the people permanent relief from extor- tionate rates. We have no doubt that the legislature would do this if it was re- called. Some of the most pliant tools of the monopolies have drepped out, cither by removal from the state or by promotion to federal offices. Their successors are fresh from the people and they would hardly dare to disobey their will. Others have been at home long enough to know what the people do want. There is no capitol job, no reform school bill, and no Pearman claim to be put through in a special ses- sion. It would be a plain straight-for- ward matter to formulate and pass a good railroad bill, Just at present the American hog is a live subject. The French national as- sembly has opened the ports of France to the American porker. The president has made the hog the object of deep solicitude in his message, and congress has taken him up asa persecuted martyr, Notice lias now been served on his worst enemy, Bismarck, by the American con- gress that it resonts the insult offered to the American hog by the Prussian dicty- tor, and will hereafter retaliate in kind by excluding from our ports limburger cheese, sauerkrout, sausages, and other unwholesome products with ahich Ger- many has afflicted America in the past. hard to foretell the result. It may be bloodshed and war. The American hog must feel proud and exclaim with the patriot, *“T'is sweet for one's country to die!” Rev. D Harr, of St. Andrew’s Epis- copal church, Newburg, N. Y. interfered in a difliculty in which a man struck his wife. ‘‘You must not strike a woman in my presence,” said the gentleman, where- upon the man landed a blow on the cler- ical cheek, The clergyman, instead of turning the other cheek to his aesailant, hauled off and returned the blow, “‘with the force and skill learned at college,” as he himself explained to his parishion- ors, who called on him to resign. This is another evidence of the value of phys- ical training in our colleges, and the day is not far distant when such exponents of the manly art as.Professor John L. Sullivan and ‘‘Baby” Barnes will be in demand to fill the pulpit, as well as col- legiate professorships cf physical educa- tion, A RURAL monopoly organ congratu- lates the Omaha Republican that ‘‘hav- ing made lots of money out of the news- paper business, it is going to build a new office, one of which they will all feel proud, and which will be a credit to the city,” Yhe money with which the Z2e- publican intends to erect its building was made out of its Union Pacific job- printing oftice. 1t couldn’t build a Union Pacific railroad section house with the 'money it has made out of its newspaper department. —_— NorwrrasraNpiNG the reduction of one third in the price of postage stamps, the Omaha post oftice sold stamps in No- venber, 1883, to an amount almost equal to that sold in November, 1882, This shows a healthy inerease of husiness— nearly 33 per cen — Oxk of the Arabian stallions, present- ed by the khedive of Egypt to General Grant, kicked a man and upset $28 worth of milk, and he sues the general for $10,000, The owner of the horse is now doing all the kicking.

SHORT-SIGHTED I'OLITICIANS, « The action of the national republican committee in tabling every proposition that looked to the abolition of the rotten boroughs in the south and the appor- tionment of presentation on the basis of republican votes cannot fail to be very damaging to the party in the future. The change was demanded by earnest repub- licans in every section of the country. The present representation is unrepubli- can because it has for its basis the old states rights and state sovereignty doc- trines, which are the sole heritage of the democracy, In referring this much needed reform to the national conven- tion the committee has exhibited a lack of courage as as well as an utter disre- gard of the consequences that may spring from its action, There is little doubt that this issue will be brought before the national convention, and it is almost cer- tain to prove a fire-brand which will arouse the passions of factional leaders to the highest pitch. The debate before the committeo between Logan, Frye, Chandler and others, as reported to the prees, is but:the forcrunner of what we may expect in Chicago. Tur senate has made an excellent choice in electing Gen. Anson G. Me- Cook, of New York, as secretary. (ien. McCook was one of the brave veterans who renaered gallant service during the war. He comes from the tamous fight- ing McCook family, and withal has & great deal of legislative experience, which is invaluable in the position to which he has been elected. Mr, Gorham will now retire gracefully to the editorial sanctumn of Frank Hatton's Washington paper. WasHiNetox is a modest city. She asks the government for only &3,625,- 375,47 for the coming year, Congress will probably cut down the estimate 47 cents. WaEs you find a man opposed to the postal telegraph the chances are ninety- nine out of a possible hundred that he is connected in some way with some mo- nopoly. A saxpsToNk quarry has been discover- ed in Butler county. Has the Union Pacific salted a quarry out there! O'Donnell, Chicago Herald, The feeling among Irishmen and Trish- Americans concerning the conviction and sentencing of O'Donnell, the slayer of Carey the infamous, is deep seated and wisely diffused— And must 0'Donnell dict And must 0'Donnell die Then ten milion Irishmen Will know the reason why. And the inquiry will be made by many others than Irishmen., Granted that in the abstract O'Donnell was a murderer, his victim was so little entitled to be ranked in_the category of men, whilo many millions of people saw that he must be brought to bar, they had a secret hope that he would not be condemned to die a felon’s death. All mankind de- up_lcoaf the wretch wlfm w‘;fl i\_mtig:]n:e crime for,the pyrpose of condemning his dupes :Eu‘u‘I? l&nnows. At hatha weli or ill founded, there is widespread belief that Carey did something more horrible. In the greed of gain he bore false witness against the innocent men, whose blood was on his head. When the foeling was abroad that this scoundrel was not fit to live,no keen animosity could be felt towards the man who put him out of the way. Techniczlly, he was a murderer; popularly, he was an avenger. His lawyers endeavored to show that, in the fatal encounter between him and Carey, O'Donnell acted in self- defense, The court and jury was against them, and the day of O'Donnell’s death on the scatlold is fixed for the 17th. Meantime, the Irish in America are doing what they can to induce the Amer- ican government to interpose its offices to the extent of asking a respite until in- quiry can be made into the allegation of O'Donnell's American citizenship, A large committee, compossed for the most part of congrossmen—Messts, Finerty, Collins, and Foran being of the number —called upon the president last Satur- day, and asked that he instruct the American minister at the court of St. James to see what could be done. This the president consented to do. 1t is noteworthy that at the very hour when Mr. Arthur was receiving this delegation in the White House Minister Lowell, in London, was declaring that he had re- ceived no instruc ions from his govern- ment which would authorize him to take any official steps whatever in the O'Don- nui’l case. By this time, however, the state departmnent at Washington has communicated with him, and if Arthur is not false to Lis promises the republic will be found asking of the Britishfgovernment the desired respite. In strictness of law the fact, if such 1t be, that O'Donnell is an American citi- zn, would not impair the full jurisdic- tion of the Brittish court. An English- man may be tried for murder in Chicago if his offense was committed here. An American may be arrainged fora crime in London. The law of the place governs. But the gravamen of the comi)%nint in this instance is that O'Dounell, being a citizen of the republic, has not had a fair triac, and that he has a right to ask of the republic that this shall be secured for him, ~As the outcome of American rep- resentation it is possible that a new trial will be granted O'Donnell, but wherein the result will be different it is difticult to discern. 1f the forms of British law are followed, and all the showing of fairness i;iven any prisoner arraigned upon a capital charge is secured for this prisoner, the United States can- not but profess itself satisfied with the finding of the jury, though it again be a conviction, That President Arthur will do in this case allthat diplomacy warrants is altogether probable, but that his action will save O'Donnell’s life can hardly be hoped. "heir own law favors the British The emotions of & large number of English speaking people prompt the wish that a delay will yet save from death upon the scaflold the slayer of the miserable mis- creant whose cold-blooded betrayal of his kind earned him the reprobation of every man who despises the treachery and the wreod that gains gold and immunity with blood. | ——— Revision and Abolition, New York Btar, Every wan with an ounce of braius in his cranial cavity knows that our present tariff was created to weet a war emer- gency, that it is honeycombed with frauds and londed down with excessive rates, and that it tends to periodically dis- | arrange industry by promoting over producting and~ fostering monopolies. This was admitted even by the last re- publican congress which undertook an ostensible revision of the tariff, but made no material change in it beyond despoil- ing the wool-growers of the country at one swoop. Whenever anything in the shape of tarift revision is proposed there are certain specially favored interests and monopolies that immediately raise the shibboleth of “Free Trade,” and dilate on the existence of wicked plots to ‘‘re duce the free American workman to the | level of European pauper labor.” is, however, an essential difference be- | tween revision and abolition, as there is | between extracting an ulcerated tooth and cutting off the patient’s head. | Tariff reformers propose to reduce tax ation without inflicting serious damage on any worthy enterprise. They prefer to cheapen the cost ef clthing and food rather than of whisky and tobacco, There need be no fear that they will do any- thing to impoverish American labor or in- jure American capital legitimately in- vested. | — Stick to the Far St. Joe Gazette. There is a growing tendency among | country boys to abandon rural life and | seek happiness and prosperity and success | in the city. Boys, stick to the old farm. Don't take this step. 1t will be fatai. It is as sure to blast your hopes and aspira- tions as night is to_succeed day. You may grow weary following the plow or the reaper, but 1o one of the varied pur- suits of the city is any less wearisome. And they are far less healthful. The hurry and confinement and turmoil of city life soon sap the strength and vigor you have brought with you, and then na- ture fights against your new habits and methods. On the farm nature appears in herlove- liest phases. The breezes are purer and balmier, the sun is brighter, the moon is more effulgent and the grass is greener than in the city, gray and cold and heart- less in the pursuit of wealth. The farmer is the proud owner of his own home and fireside and tills his own soil. If energetic and industrious, he need owe no man in the wide world a cent. With ruddy cheek, and surrounded by lowing herds and fields of waving grass and grain, he realizes that he is a man, in the broadest and fullest senge which the term implies, Independent of want and innocent of creditors, he sees life in its happiest phases and approximates its ideal man- hood. What is there in the life of such a man to drive his son to the city? What field presents such grand opportunities for success? Sutely not that of law, or me- dicine, or commerce, for these are already crowded to overflowing. Contrast this contentment, this health and vigor, this quiet, this independence, with the hurry and confusion, toil and turmoil, care and vextation, languor and weariness which go to make up the exist - ence of every man who casts his fortunes with the city. He may conduct a flour- ishing business and be flushed with suc- cess to-day and disapointed and _broken- hearted to-morrow. Feverish and fretful, overwhelmed by disaster, driven to dis- traction by enterprising creditors, he may weather the storm, and he may seek to end life’s fitful fever with the deadly revolver or in the dreamy,endless sleeplof the narcotic. When the crashcomes what would he not have given for the peaceful, quiet, independent life on the farm? Nor 'is the picture overdrawn. Such a result, however overwhel- ming and unexpected it may be, is in no way improbable to men who embark in business untrained. And there is another phase of city life which renders it still more dangerous ground for the confiding, unsophisticated lad from the country. Not conteut with its worry and its weariness, the city has its fascinating vices and allurements, which the “‘tender foot” will ‘‘first shun, then endure, then embrace.” The spell is ectasy, but it means ruin and sorrow aad death. Boys, stick to the farm, and when you get tired of work for no stipulated sum, make arrangements with father or mother, at the case may be, to share the proceeds. But pin ycur faith to the farm, and if you are industrious it will enable you to realize your boyish expectations of wealth and influence. The city more often means acbt, disease, despondency and death. GAGD CYURES e b Neura!gla, Sciatica, he. Headache, Toothache, C.E.
