Whether the fault in this in- stance lies with the German hog or Amer- ican hog is a question upon which doctors disagree.

She is the youngest state in the union, with hardly population enough to make it a state, yet she has already a cabinet officer, who has given the best pickings of the interior department to Colorado politicians. And now Colorado wants Judge McCrary’s position to be filled by Judge Hallett. It seems to us that Col- orado ought to give us a rest. Dr. Minikr is now editing The Omaha Herald from the ancient city of Rome, Italian art removed. Dr. Miller writes to his paper : ““I hope Mr. Hewitt, Mr. Randall Mr. Cox, and Mr. Pusey (of Council Bluffs) will give this matter their immediato attention and force the instant repeal of the tax robbery on Italian art.” Tt is suspected that the doctor has invested in a hand-organ and a monkey accompaniment, which he desires to bring to Omaha free of duty. : Se—— Tae paving of our streets will be re- sumed early in the spring, and pushed vigorously during the seasor. The coun- cil is taking the right oourse in making all the preliminary arrangements during the winter. At the meeting on Thursday evening the council passed ordinances providing for the paving of Farnam street with Sioux Falls granite, Dodge street with asphalt and Thirteenth street, District No. 27, with Sioux Falls granite, A storm-water sewer is to be constructed down the centire of Farnam street. This work, in connection with the other streets already contracted, will keep up the boom in public improvements. Tue extremely cold weather of the last few days has no doubt caused a great deal of suffering among the poor and des- titute people in this city, It is hoped that those of our citizens who are bless- ed with the comforts and luxuries of life will exercise a little practical charity among these of their neighbors who are “suffering from the lack of food, fuel and clothing, = A little flour and bacon, a fow buckets of coal, and some old clothing properly given to the destitute will be more of a charity than a liberal cash con- tribution to some foreign missionary s « ciety. Remember that charity begins at home, —— - Taere was o groat sensation in the city ef Rome on the 14th day of December, On that day, which will now be painted red in the Roman calendar, an old copy of the Omaha Zcrald was handed by an Ttalian lotter cerrier to his lordship, Giovani Lorenzo Millerino, late of Omaha, His “ludship” was shocked in noting that the Herald had changed its policy during his absence, and for once called & spades spade. So his *lud- ship,” who had not intended to write a line for publication in the Merald during his visit in Europe, at once set about to make a correction. The Herald had - veferred to Sam. Randall as a protec- tionist democrat. His *‘ludship” declares that the Omaha Herald will not fallow the lead of Mr. Watterson, or any one else, in assaults upon Mr. Randall. The opinions held by Mr. Randall, de- clares his “ludship,” are ' shared by . many able and worthy democrats. Ne- . braska, says he, should speak on that subject this winter with a voice of pru- - dence and wisdom, through ten delegates - which she is to seud to the national con- " wention, His “ludship” evidently still ’has an eye on that convention, Inciden- tally, however, he cannot forbear to ‘mention that he paid his respects to a I!Jfll Jacob Astor, the New York ~ millionaire,'who now resides in Rome as i . of the United States. His ‘‘lud- . mhip"” always has boen partial to million- circuit judge, about to be vacated by Mr. where he is studying Italian art.

Dundy for the position of United States |; McCrary, the Nebraska delegation grossly | ¢ misreprosents the sentiments of their wheneyer their interesta come in conflict in his court with those of the great rail- road corporations. Within the past three yoars the people of Nebraska have had ample reason to deplore the fact that Mr. Dundy holds a life position on the United States district bench. They have sen him travel in special palace cars on junketing tours to the Pacific coast, pro- vided with all the luxuries which t managers of the Union Pacific could pro- cure to make his trip pleasant and com- fortable. The effect of these free rides, and of the dining and wining, has been geen in the most glaring partiality of the court toward the corporation that fur- nished them. Other judges have traveled froo pssos, and occas- jonally have accepted the hospitalities of railroad kings, but venture to say that there is not another judgo in America who has played into the hands of the corporations with as much indiffer- encs to common decency and public sentiment as has Judge Dundy. The tax-ridden people of Nebraska would have cause to feel indignant should their delegation in congress recommend for promotion to the circuit bench the man who rendered tho infamous decision in the notorious Platt caso, whereby mil- lions of acres of land which had been forfeited to homestead entry by the Union Pacific were restored to that corpor- ation and kept from the sottlers. When that case came before Judge Dundy he had the best means of knowing that Platt, who was a Union Pacific land agont at Grand Island, was a mere tool of that corporation. It was a jug-handle affair, but he allowed it to be tried as a test case, and by his decision he showed himself to be a mere puppet on the bench, whom the attorneys of the railroad could handle as they saw fit. The people of Nebraska have seen other outrages pertrated through the ma- chinery of that court, which ought to have afforded grounds for retiring the judge. But he is there for life and the people are helpless. In view of the fact that the circuit court of the United Statos is obliged to pass upon nearly every important case on we would be a remarkable spectacle to see the representativesof this commonwealth urging for appointment to this respon- sible position a man, who, of all others, has such a strong leaning towards the railronds. If Nebraska is entitled to the position, her delegation should pre- sent some man whose past record does THE DAILY BEE--OMAHA, | while the Burlington is considering the novel proposition of hecoming a pool egraph, that our delegation in congress | within itself. time that a railroad company has been lines, and it naturally One thing is evident that the 26,000-mile constituents.

Small bodies of the forces of El Mehdi are hovering around Khar- toum and firing at boats on the river and stragglers from the garrison. Their operations caused a report to spread that El Mehdi was closing around the place, and there was great alarm there. The arrival of a reinforcement of 1,300 Egyp- tians from Fashoda has not increased the confidence of the English officers. The men are sullen, of bad physique, and manifest no disposition to fight. The in- capacity of the garrison was shown re- cently when o false alarm was given of the approach of El Mehdi. The garrison when ordered out exhibited great fear, and shrank from approaching the sup- posed enemy. This is probably the first nvited to organize & pool out of its own puzzles the aninitiated how that thing is to be done. This is a flat contradic- Burlington could not possibly hold out It happens that just at this season of the The khedive and his ministers main- tain a sullen attitude toward the English officials at Cairo on account of the re- fusal of English assistance in the opera- tions against El Mehdi. Sir Evelyn Baring, the British representative in Egypt, complains of the deadlock in bus- iness. Buropean officials can get noth- ing done. The Egyptian government is willing to assent to the proposal of the porte to dispatch a Turkish expedition to ths Soudan, at the expense of the Egyptian treasury, through a loan to be advanced by England. The khedive favors, as another scheme to provide for the expense of the expedition, the sell- ing of a concession for a second canal across the Isthmus of Suez. Sir Evelyn Baring has_made a report to Lord Gran- ville, in which he advocates that the southern boundary of Egypt is definitely fixed at about the fifteenthdegree of lati- tude, and that an arrangement be made with Abyssinia for the maintenance of Massouah, Suakim, and other Red sea ports in the possession of Egypt. In Germany the Vatican visit already is bringing about the relaxation of some of the anti-clerical laws, Another and more important fact is the new alliance between Germany, Anstrin and Italy. The report is confirmed that the repre- sentatives of (iermany, Austria and Ttaly havo signed a treaty by which, in the event of a war between either of the two first named powers or both of them and France, Italty is left entirely free to take part or not; but should France go truce of two weeks will materially affe the business of either of those belli ents. As it now looks the Burlington will be able to stay out altogether. Its first step in running through Chicago coaches into Omaha indicates that it in- tends to hoe its own row. Tur contest in the Ohio senatorship will begin in earnest next week. It is to be fought out inside the democratic caucus. At present the fight lies be- tweon Pendleton and Payne, with every indication in favor of the latter. Payne in a Clovelandmillionaire, and his *‘bar’l” will play sad havoc with Gentleman George's crockery in the caucus. OTHER LANDS THAN OURS, Nothing startling has happened in the old world during tho past week. France still fills a larger share of the attention among European diplomats than any other country. Her aggressive policy abroad is a source of as much anxicty in Gireat Britain as in China. On the other hand the combinations which are forming against her have culminated in a new alliance between Gormany, Austria, Italy and Spain. With that daring statesmanship which has always distin- guished him, Princo Bismarck worked |ty war with Italy, both Germany until he succeeded in showing France |and Austria are pledged to help that she stood practically isolated among | Italy. Until further explanation this may be pronounced the most remarkable treaty of modern times. It gives to Italy everything and asks nothing from her in return; not even the payment of the war expenses of the two most obliging nations. This singular treaty was signed a8 early as last September, not long after the rumpus in Italy over the Krench military movements in Tunis, which movements the Italians, with a keen the nations of Europe. In order to wreak the vengeance for which she thirsts, she may defy Germany and her allier, but the republic dare hardly run the risk. The treatment King Alfonso received in Paris, the visit of the crown prince of Germany to Madrid and the offusive congratulatins exchanged be- twoen tlie Spaniardand the Kaiser are |Fecollection of some events in the history of ancient Carthage, in- of too recent occurrence to bo more than | terpreted as o menaco of the alluded to in connection with the posi- tion which France now occupies upon the continent. 1t is a lonely position, but it will benefit the world if it induces France to abandon thoughts of a Euro- pean war and to devote herself entirely to improving that career of prosperty upon which she entered when she flung aside the imperial bauble. island of Sicily and the Italian mon- archy. The ireaty on this thought may be interpreted as a notice from the triple allies to France to quit in Tunis and bri- dle her ambition for further conquestand colonization on the Mediterranean coast of Africa. And the French assembly, taking the hint, refuses now to vote the 810,000,000 asked by the government to aid such colonization. This is the view of it most favorable to Italy. There is another not so favorable. There may be a side treaty between Austria and Germany hid away under a bush- el, by which it is agreed that Austria shell do all the nghting on Since the fall of Sontay no reports have reached us from Plevna to indicate what the situation of the belligerents now is. The French army is undoubted- not show him to be partial to one great interest as against the common people. It would be far better for Ne- braska to lay no claim to the place than for her to put a man there who will make justice a mere mockery. Mr. Dundy has taken his position with the corporations, not only in this one instance but in nearly every case where they have had great stakes at issue. He has done this deliberately, and he has thereby forfeited all claims for support from the represen- tatives of the people if they have any re- gord for their constituents. There are those, of course, in this state who always toady to power and influence. They may send telegrams, letters and petitions to our congressmen, requestlng them to urge Mr. Dundy's appointment, even though there may not be the slightest show for it. There aro lawyers practic- ing in the United States district court who would sign anything rather than incur the judge's displeas- ure, But when our * congressmen hear from the bone and sinew of the land, from the farmers and the working people, and the peop'e of all occupations who are not directly connected with the court, they will learn that Nebraska would rather forego all the claims that she has, than give her endorsement to Elmer 8. Dundy for circuit judge. Of the bench Judge Dundy is a genial gen- tleman, and ;has many warm personal friends, but that should have no bearing on his fitness as the suoccessor of George W. McCrary. Gexeran RoseorANs, who has always been bitterly opposed to the restoration of Fitz-John Porter on the army roll, has changed his viows very materially, Last fall he made a personal inspection of the entire battle field at Bull Run, in com- pany with several Union army officers, General Longstreot, who, it will be re- membered, commanded a confederate army corps at Bull Run, was also one of the party. General Rosecranz formerly shared the opinion, almost universal at the west during the war, that Porter was guilty as charged, and had been treated leniently by the court. His studies have brought him to the opposite conclusion, He has provided himselt with ucourate maps of the field, and with full files of all official orders bearing on the care. His prominence as an army commander and his recognized ability as a military student are already exciting interest hero in his forthooming speech. —— Avzek o conference lasting two days the new railroad alliance has failed to en- list the Burlington into the pool. The refusal of the Burlington to join the pool leaves the Western trunk-line association in & somewhat embarrassing position. The Iowa pool being dissolved, the Bur- lington is now at liberty to compete on its own terms for all the traffic that it Italian soil and after the war indemnify herself by seizing her old possessions in Lombardy, from which the French and Piedmontese expelled her after Magenta and Solferino. There is nothing in Italy that Bismarck wants or that a man of his sterling good sense would be willing to pay the expense of tighting for out of the (lerman treasury; and it is incredible that he should bind his country to such an obligation with the intention of keep- ing it by fighting for Italy without hope of compensation, ly making all the preliminary prepara- tions for the capture of Bacninh. ‘Whether they will meet with greater re- sistance in an attack upon that citadel than they did in their assault on the fortress of Sontay time alone .will show. The French ministry, backed, as they are, by the entire population of France, refuse to listen to any talk of mediation, at least for the present. When France has occupied the key to China, and has possession of the entire delta of the Red river, she will hear what China has to say. It remains to be seen whether the Celestials will consent to that arrange- ment. Now that France has added, or is about to add, the magniticent island of Hainan to its eastern possessions, the probability is that they will not. Then France will find herself pitted against all tae resources, political and material, of a vast empire which has Kngland as a silent. ally. It is encouroging to observe the busi- ness men of New Orleans taking steps to secure the trade of the Spanish-American countries in Central and South America. They held a meeting at their produce ex- change last Saturday, and instituted measures for organizing a new steamship company with steamers running in regu- lar trips to these countries, and recogniz- ing the large interest which the Mississ- ippi valley has in this enterprise, they have sent out invitations to all the con- siderable commercial bodies in the west and south to a convention to be held at New Orleans in February for the pur- pose of considering the subject. Naerly all the trrde of the central and south American states, lying adjacent to New Orleans and only three to six days sail—Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Colombia and Venezuela, with an aggre. gate population of 10,000,000—goes now to England and France. ~ And yet Eng- land and France are four to five times as far from them as our southern ports. Our products and theirs furnish all the conditions of » mutually advantageous interchange which o thing but energetic efforts to develop and secure it. New Orleans is the proper entrepot for commerce, but the west would, probably, be the largest benificiary of it, for the vessels that now leave %nw Orleans for the Carribbean countries take out chiefly flour, hominy, grits, bacon, lard and lumber—all except lumber being western products —while a very large proportion of the coffee, tropical fruits, woods, dye stuffs, and fibres they bring back in re- turn are distributed throughout the west. The condition of affairs in Ireland still continues to be the subject of serious concern to the Dritish political world. It is especially interesting now to take a retrospective view of the consequences that have followed the Phwnix park as- sassinations. Early in February Kava- nagh, the car driver, turned informer and impeached several men as the assas- sins; five days later Carey, who was the instigator of the crime, turned round and completed the chain of evidence which the government required; in Apnl, Jo- seph Brady, Daniel Curley, Patrick De- laney, Thomas Cafirey and Timothy Kelly were convicted, and, in a few weoks afterwards, Brady, Curley, Fagan, COafirey and Kelly died upon the gal: lows. That was one development of the tragedy; still another, not less startling, was to come. Carey had taken the blood-money, and was smuggled out of England to South Africa. Nemesis was on his track, however, and on the 20th of July he wasshot dead at Port Elizabeth by Patrick O'Donnell. Carey's ol r was 80 infamous that the Brit- ish government might h grace have spared his murderer's life, but it would not, and 0'Donnell was executed in New- gate on the 17th of December. In spito of the optimistic statements put forward from time to time by Englishmen, these nations and executions did not im- prove the political condition of lreland, where agrarian crimes, prohibited politi- cal meotings, riots, fierce anti-English denunciations in the press and on the platform, evictions and fatal contests with the police, proved that she atill lives in a saddening state of discontent almost approaching anarchy. There are great heredity estates else- where than in England. The landed possessions of Prince Schwartzenburg in Austria-Hungary cover 120 German lnbun miles; Prince Liechtenstein owns 104 square miles; Prince Esterhazy, 80, and Count Schonborn, 66. The largest estates in Germany are those belonging to the Duc d’Arenberg in Hanover and Westphalia, and in the empire there are twenty-two estates as large as the most extensive in England, Editor Watterson, in the Louisvile Courier-Journal, speaks as follows about conducting a newspaper: ‘‘Some people estimate the ability of a periodical and the talent of its editor by the quantity of its original matter, It "is cemparatively an easy task for a frothy writer to string out a column of words on any and all sub- Jeots, His ideas may flow in one weak, wul:{. overlasting flood; and the com- mand of his language may enable him to string them together lke bLunches of onions, and yet his paper may be but & meage o poor concern, Indeed, the mere writing part of editing a paper is but a small portion of the Evorl?.
