Joux A, Kasson delivered the dedica tory address at the formal opening of Towa's new state capitol yesterday. It was the effort of his life. SExATOR Epvusns assures the repub licans that the present outlook is brighter this year than atany time in the past fifteen years. He believes that victory will perch upon the republican banner if wisdom is exercised in selecting candi- dates. New York will be carried with- out a doubt, he says, if the party is united in that state. Ir the Cheyenne papers would give Tuk Ovaia Ber credit for the editorials which they reprint from its columns, we wouldn't have any occasion to kick. In Wednesday muorning’s issues of the two Choyenne papers several articles from Tur: Bk appeared as original matter, and one article was republished as an original editorial in the Zeader and Sun on the same morning. Ax erudite Boston judge has just de- cided that a man injured on a railroad on Sunday cannot recover damages unless he was traveling on a mission of necessi- ty or charity. That judge is probably under the impression that justice is still administered under the old “blue laws,” which, among other things, forbade a person to look cross-wise or smoke or chew tobacco on Sunday. “Our Var,” while in Chicago on Tuesday last, was interviewed by the Chicago Zimes' political reporter, who represents him as saying that owing to his free trade tendency, Senator Van Wyck “‘can never be elected again; that isa settled fact.” That does settle it, sure. Senator Van Wyck will probably lose a great deal of sleep over this decreo of “Our Val,” and when he meets him he will very likely say to that astute po- litical prophet, *‘Who told you so ¢ SeENATOR VAN Wyek's efforts in behalf of settlers on the public domain in Ne- braska and Kansas, whose homes haye been placed in jeopardy by adverse deci- sions, have proved successful, and he will receive the hoeartfelt thanks of the home- steaders. His bill, which has beon or- dered reported favorably, providea for the payment of $2.50 per acre, by per- sons who took up lands under the home- stead or pre-emption laws within the limits of the Nocthern Kansas land grant, The sum of $200,000 will be appropriated for this purpose and it is expected that this will be sufficieat to quiet the titles. Tir Burlington is getting itself in pretty good shape th carry out its plan of forming a pool of its own. The Hannibal and the Kansas City, St. Joe & Council Bluffs roads are to be included in the poo), and are to form the Missouri division of the Burlington system. Early in the spring it will build an extension to Grand Island, and also to Cheyenne, where it will connect with the proposed Cheyenne, Black Hills & Montana road, work upon which is to be begun this year. 1t looks as if the Burlington pro- poses to keep up its plan of tapping the Union Pacific at all important points, By building through to Cheyenne it would get a large share of the cattle trade, — I seems that a movement has been inaugurated to stop the sale of liquors in | dian population, huwever, is increasing lands have not only rejected the claim of the Southern Pacific, but have unani- mously agreed to report a il declaring the Texas Pacific land grant forfeited, on the ground that that company has not completed any part of the route for which the grant was given to it, and therefore has never earned any part of the land. The committee considers the transfer by the Texas Pacific of all its titlo and rights in the lands to another company, the Southern Pacific, as null and void, as it gave a title to landswhich it had not earned, and thorefore yirtual ly renouced the grantor contract. It will bo remembered that the South- ern Pacific, in its eagerness to beat the Texas Pacitic, adver- tised itself as being able and willing to proceed without a y subsidy, and it then went on and occupied the route which had been selected by the Texus The latter road had asked congress to guarantee the interest on its bonds to enable it to proceed, but the tacticians of the Southern Pacific adopted the liberal policy of building without aid, and thus defeated its rival, That such a man as Central Pacific Hunt- ington should lay claim to over 14,000,- 000 acres surprises no one who has read his voluminous correspondence with which the press has recently been filled. Such a man and his associates would lay claim to the earth upon the slightest pre- text, and were tho present congrosss composed of men like those with whom the land pirates have dealt in former years, they would have stood a good show of having their claimsgranted. Mr. Huntington’s scheme to gobble up 14,- 000,000 acres of land was indeed a bold game, but fortunately it has been dofeated. Pacific. THE INDIAN PROBLEM. The difficulty in the way of carrying out the plan of allotting lands in several- ty to Indians isthat thereisnot asufticient quantity of available arable land to allot. Se says Senator Dawes, chairman of the senate committee on Indian affairs, who has been investigating the subject. Set- tlers are taking up nearly all the good agricultural lands, and their rights have become so vested that they could not be removed, even if it werethepurposeof the government to do that. Tn several locali- ties where Indians are now situated there is extremely little agricultural land, and, a8 game is rapldly disappearing, the sole depondenco of the Indians is theirratious ftom the gevernment. Senator Dawes, wholastyearpaida visit with other mem- bers of thecommitteetothe Siouxreserva- tion, says that the selection of locations for some of the agencies, notably that of the Rosebud agency, is very unfortu- nate, being useless for any agricultural purpose, as the agency is surrounded by an alkali plain, and there is no land in sight from which a white man ocould gain a livelihood, This, however, does not agree with the statementsof the people of Dakota, who are anxious for the opening of the Sioux reservation for sottlement by the whites. They claim that a large portion of the Sioux reserva- tion is admirably adapted for agricultu- ral purposes, and that if it is thrown open for settloment the lands will all be rap- idly taken up by actual settlers, thou- sands of whom are anxiously awaitingtho action of congress on this question. Laboring under probably an erroneous impression, at least so far as the land of the Sioux reservation is concernod, Sen- ator Dawes is reported to have said: “*The more the Indian problem is studied, in fact, the more diflicult does it become. Yot there are but three hundred thou- sand Indians to be cared for by some fifty millions of white people. The In- the congressional restaurants, Mr. Frye | rather than diminishing,” « has discovered that whisky, under the name of {ea, is being served in cups and Hexny M, Arkixsox, of Nebraska, saucers in one of those places. The|who has been fed at the foderal crib in congressional restaurateur probably got | various positions for nearly twenty years, the idea from an untruthful paragraph, | may have to vacate the surveyor general- which has been going the rounds of the press, stating that beef-tea was a favorite Senator beverage in Omaha saloons, Bayard favored the exclusien of s uous, but not malt liquors, and the mat- ter was compromised by forbidding the sale of ‘“intoxicating” liquors. Hero after our representatives will be obliged to go around the corner to get theircock tails, Tae national republican convention was to have been held in the exposition building in Chicago, but as that buiiding is likely to be torn down early in the spring, some other place will have to be provided. It seems that in December, 1882, the city council passed an ordi- nance requiring the mayor to lease tion company, st $10,000 a year, Fail. ing to accomplish this the mayor was au- thorized to take possession of the premi- #es. At a meeting of the directors of the exposition the other day it was re- #olved to advise the stockholders to tear down the building, the | g i lake front ground on which the exposi- ke tion building now stands to the exposi- government appsintment, the new Mexican surveyor generalship, - |all of whom are highly endorsed, and a lively fight for the place is in progress. - | President Arthur is saidlto be averse to making an appointment outside of the territory, and this fact practically nar- rows the contest down to the two appli- cants from the territory—Mr, Clarence Pullen, who is a civil engineer of seme local prominence, and Mr, Atkinson, the present incumbent, who, under the cir- oumstances, claims to be a full-fledged New Mexican. Mr. Pullen is backed by and it is claimed by his friends that the chances for his appointment are very favorable. —_— 15 looking around for an available can- didate for the presidency the democrats will no doubt select the man who can produce the biggest *‘bar’ It is now stated that the newly-elected Standard oil senator from Ohio, flushed with his ship of New Mexico and seek some other If he weets with his usual success, he will not be long out of & #oft foderal positivn, There are at present a half dozen candidates for victory over (jentleman George, proposes to heoome a presidential candidate. His “bar’l” is of mufticient dimensions to com- mand the respect and support of the democrats, Literary and financial bu- reaus, otherwise known as “oil-rooms,” are soon to be established in Washington {and New York for the purpose of boon- ing Payne.

If this plan is carried out it is safe to say that Mr. Payne will have no trouble in emptying his *‘bar'l.’ news be the manager LEASED SCHOOL LANDS. The board of public lands and build- ings, of which Glenn Kendall is chair. man, is charged with having leased over 400,000 acres of school lands to a syndi- cate, and 40,000 acres to one man. This is nothing but a gigantic speculation, which is an outrage upon the people, in more ways than one. Actual settlers who now want to secure farms cannot obtain them except by paying a handsome profit to the syndicate. It is charged also that these lands have been leased to the syn- dicate at lower rates than were bid by the The Lincoln Journal, the de- fender of all such jobbery, inadvertently says that “speculation in these leases is going on actively, and the land is passing into tha hands of settlers and small owners quite as rapidly as while they wero exclusively in the hands of the board. Indeed more so, as considerable individual energy and push is brought to bear upon the disposal of them.” True enough, for these lands are de- sirable, and are in demand for actual settlement. The speculators were aware of this fact, and knew that by getting control of them they would have no trouble of disposing of them, by sub- lotting, at a big profit. Of course the speculators will exert themselves to turn these lands over to sub-lessees and thus pocket the plunder as soon as possible. The Journa! assures the public that there no danger of existing leases being disturbed. This is, indeed, comforting to the speculators, ““ If ths law ie.determined to be invalid,” says the Jowrnal, ““asa matter of course the old law unrepealed and instantly comes into all of its former torce and effect. Its pro- visions for the lease of lands are identi- cal with those of the act now in contro- versy, and there can be no disturbing ef- fect upon contracts with the state for the sale or lease thereof. There can be no sounder title to realty in Nebraska than that acquired from theland commissioner and all alarm or uneasiness upon the subject is entirely unnecessary.” The question naturally arises, has Glenn Kendall, the land commissioner, thus generously treated the land specula- settlers. is remains chere is only a little ahead of the times in England. RATLWAY INVASION OF THE INDIAN TERRITORY. The majority of the committeo on In- dian affairs are in favor of granting right of way to railroads through the Indian territory, and Senator Ingalls’ bill, grant- ing the right of way to the Southern Kan sas railway company, will favorably reported. that railroads through probably be is no doubt Indian terri There the | tory will have a civilizing effect upon the Indians, The Indian territory has re arrier to railroads long enough, and the simple right of way will not be denied by the Indians if the matter is presented to them properly and some re- muneration is provided. The Five Na- tions are far enough advanced in civiliza- to appropriate the benefits of railways, and Senator Dawes is in favor of leaving mained & ¥ the matter to their decision. bill, among other things, provides that before the railway shall be constructed through any land held in good faith at the time of filing the map of preliminary survey by indi- vidual occupants according to the laws, customs and usages of any of the Indian nations or tribes through which it may be constructed, full compensa- tion shall be made to such cupants for all property to be taken or damaged by reason of the construction of said railway, Senator Tngalls’ oc- In case of failure to make amicable settlement with any such occupant, such compensation shall be determined by the appointment of three disinterested referees, one to be named by the commissioner of Indian affairs, one by the principal chief of the nation or tribo in which the land to be appro- priated is situated, and one by the com- pany, whose award shall be final. In case the referees cannot agree, then any two of them are authorized to make the award, which shall be equally final. The bill also provides that the railway com- pany shall pay to the secretary of the interior, for the benefit of the particular natiens or tribes through whose lands the road may be located, a certain sum for each mile of road. If this bill is passed it will probably be followed by another, giving the right of way, upon similar terms, to roads wish- ing to build to the northwest through the Sioux reservation, if that 1eservation is not thrown open by the proposed treaty. Tae land grant railroads have sent their high-priced attorneys to Washing- ton in full force to ‘‘protect” the rail- road interests. The attorneys, however, are not meeting with the cordial recep- tion accordad to them at previous ses- sions of congress. When the attorneys off the Northern Pacific requested the judiciary committee of the house to give them a three days’ hearing on the ques- tion whether the bill relating to the Northern Pacific land grants should be transferred to the committee on public lands, they werepromptlyrefused, andthe committee intimated that it did not pro- poso to turn itself into adebating socioty. The commeree committee likewise re- fused to give the railroads a hearing of thirty days on the inter-state commerce bill.” 1t is ovident that those committees tors without reward or hope of reward? ENGLISH REFORM, A very radical programme of reform in England has been prepared by Mr. La- bouchere, member of parliament, and published in his paper, the London Truth, His ideas may well be called radieal. So extremely so, in fact, that they no doubt will be accepted as a huge joke by the phlegmatic English people, who have become wedded to the moss- backed customs that have prevailed for centurios. Mr. Labouchere's sugges- tions, however, are very sensible, and possibly in the course of time they will be gradually adopted in England, In electoral reform he says that the radicals shall not rest satisfied until they have manhood sufirage, electoral dis tricts, and payment of members. The crown and the crown’s family cost too much, He thinks $2560,000 a year ought to be the maximum to be expended upon royalty, The radicals, ho asserts, .- pose to abolish the house of lords. While not prepared o assent to Ireland’s soparation, thoy admit Treland's right vo be her own mistress in everything of a local nature. The radicals believe in a county government, elected by the peo- ple, who shall have a vote for members of parliament. Thoy propose to legis- late to reduce the landlords to the posi- tion of ground landlords. The occupiers of agricultural land will have a fixity of tenure, at a fair ground-rent. Either they or the state will profit by the un. carned incroment. The ocoupier on the other hand, will provide cottages with an acre or two attached to them, for those whom he employs. No entail or settlement of estates will be allowed, A land owner who does not cultivate of cause to be cultivated any portion of his estate will lose his right to that portion, The aim will be to break up and destroy all great territorial domains, They pro- pose also to disestablish and disendow the established cliurch. When the pres- ent incumbents die, they ahall have no successors, and the nation will regaln its property, and probably apply the income to educational purposes. 1t is proposed to have not only frec primary, but free secondary and technical schools, The national expenditures are to be reduced, and the system of taxation is to be re- modeled, If Mr, Labouchere and his radical fol lowers succeed in carrying out this pro. vosed programme, they will not only as- tonish themse!ves but the whole world, although there is nothing in it but what do not propose to allow any such delays to defeat logislation, as they have hith- erto done. The oral arguments on_the inter-state commerco bills have been limited to three days—the 24th,25th and 26th of January. WEST OF THE MISSOURI. The expressed dotermination of the Burlington & Missouri River railroad to stand on its own bottom as against the combined strength of the Towa pool lines and the Union Pacific, has been warmly commended by all classes. The natural distrust of the people for combinations of all kinds is so widespread and deep-seated that when an individual or corporation cuts loose from the ring, it secures to cither the substantial support of tho pub- lic. Such is the case of the B, & M, in Nobraska to-day. From_every quarter comes commendations of itsaction in re- fusing to join the tripartito, The com- pany is perfecting plans for marching nto new fields and carrying the war iato the terriiory of the Union Pacific to the north. Not only will North Nebraska be invaded by the giant of the South Platte, but it will also seek fresh fields to conquer in the plains of Wyoming and rehern Colorado. The surveyors on the Fremont oxten- sion of the B. & M. are now in the field running two lines from Wahoo—one to Fremont and another to North Bend. “The building of this road would make the Union Pacific rustle to maintain its grasp onthe trade of Dodge and Saunders counties, The Grand Island extension is in statu quo pendingjthe result of proceedings be- gun by the Union Pacific to compel the B, & M. to pay dameges before crossing its track, A large map of the Grand lufnud yards has been prepared by the engineers of the B. & M. for usein court. Prepara- tins for building the line will doubtless menced as soon as the frost leaves the ground, Another important feeder, said to be in contemplation by the same company, is u line from Denver to Cheyenne and the coal fields and fodder lands of Wy- oming. The distance to Cheyenne i be about seventy-five miles, The build- ing of this branch is censidered more probable in view of the fact that the Cheyenne, Black Hills & Montana com- pany will conmmence building operations early this year. The cost of a line from Denver to Cheyenne would be compara- tively small owing to easy grades and fow bridges to be built. It will be seen from these maneuvres on the railroad checker board the present year will witness the liveliest kind of competition between the mogul corpora- tions of Nebraska, and the west. Next to railroad monopoly, there is none Jwore exacting and despicable in its methods than the elevator monopoly. As u general rule elevators are controlled by the railroad corporations or a ring of ofticial or agents. They can set a price is practical and within the bounds ef reason, and everything suggested is for the benefit of the people. Mr, Labou- ou grain at will and fix the grade to suit themselves. Should prices go up in Chicago they are deaf, out if prices| go on, 5o that active work can be ccm- | T, should go down at the same place they tumble instantly if not sooner. No rival elevator can obtain the facilities of the favored ones in side tracks and cars and rebates, and the result is that no compe- tion is attempted without some *‘under- standing” with the railroads. An in stance of this kind occurred recently in Butler county. The elevator company of oneof the towrs managed to keep prices at the lowest notch and finally succeeded in driving farmers to distant towns where better rates were obtained. Naturally enough the business of the town rapidly decreased, and the mer chants began to grumble, and the grum- bling resulted in the organization of an evator or storage company with the avowed purpose of paying the highest market price for grain, Tt had the de. sired effect. The new company boomed prices and brought back all trade trib- utary to the town, business increased and the enterprising merchants are not only making money on corn but on cloths and groceries. A similar case occurred a few weeks ago at Morehead, Minn, The elevator there persisted in grading No. 1 wheat as No. The outrage at last became unbear- able and meetings were held to organize a farmers’ elevator company. As soon as the managers of the elevator sniffed the storm they began grading all wheat as No. 1. and went so far as to offer back pay to all farmers whose wheat was sold as No. 2. The farmers, however, would not be gulled. They took the money stolen from them, but they would not take the bait. They carried out their determination to build an elevator with a capacitys of 75,000 bushels and raised 815,000 for that purpose, and the build- ing now under way. This is the only way to dispose of the petty robbers who always follow in the wake of the Simon pure highwayman, The mica mines of Wyoming give promise of rich returns to the fortunate owners, The mines are located in what is known as Whalen's canyon and_ speci- mens have been brought to Cheyenne by Mr. A. C. Hendrickson, the lesseo of the mines. Active work work will commence in_the spring. The product of these mines is cracked up as the best found anywhere on Jthe globe. A piece 516 of ‘an inch,in thickness he split into no less than 111 sheets, each perfect. This would admit of more than 350 split- tings of an inch thick and demonstrates that 100 sheets large enough for commer- cial use could easily be split. The aim in working the mine will be to get out large sized blocks, 4x( inches and upward, which are especially in demand for com. mercial purposes. The Wyoming Petroleum company, of which Dr. Graff and Samuel E. Kogers of Omaha, are largely interested, is in a peck of trouble. It scems that while the oily doctor was skirmishing around the country for capitalsts some Cheyenne parties jumped the claim and propose to fight for title in the courts, The action is one of ejectment, to obtain possession of 1,440 ncros of land, recently reported as having been purchased by the petrol- eum company, and_known as the Rattle- snake oil placer claim. The contestants claim that the petroleum company have 10 right of possession and have forfeited its rights by failing to improve in the time required by law. There is supposed to be a good supply of money on both sidos and the lawyers propose to tako as much as possible, It is not likely thatthe sale of the Omaha reservation lands in the north- eastern part of the state, will prove very profitable to actual settlers. The lands, it is expected, will be thrown into the market early in the spring. The valua- tion made by the commissioners last year put the price of tke poorest of the land at about §5 per acre. The conditions of the sale are such that the land must bring not less than the price set by the commis- sioners. The experienceof the Otoe land sale will doubtless deter many perscns from participating in the sale, In this instance the speculators secured the best of the land by the freeze-out process— prolonging the cale and bidding in ata high figure, then failing to make payment and securing a re-sale of the land. Speak- ing of the forthcoming sale the North Nebraska Eagle says: *‘Many are vie- tims to the belief that it is a splendid op- portunity to get a piece of land; and 8o it 1s, provided the purchaser has plenty of money. But to those who have not at least one thousand dollars at their com- mand for every eighty acres they wish to buy, we would say, turn your steps else- where, The desirable tracts wall prob- ably not be sold for less than ten dollars per acre, One third of the sum total will likely have to be paid upon purchase and the remainder in two annual installments. In case a quarter section is bought at the price, the first payment would be i at the beginning of the second ye of possession nearly $587) aud at the beginning of the third year $560, nearly §1,680 for the piece of land. During that time but one crop can be taken from the land. Remember this is the price for naked prairie. The erection of houses and other necessary improve- ments, requires in a treeless region considerable ready cash, Then there no roads, no school houses, no bridges, noth- ing whatever beside the unbroken mfi to make civilized life pos- ble, all of which improvements costs censiderable money, and must come from the settlers of the lands, If we take all these details into consideration the ulti- mate price per acre, with but moderate improvements, will not be less than $20, ‘mproyed farms in most parts of this and adjoining counties can be bought for less per acre, and in most instances upon less stringent conditions. Itis not our aim to detract one jot from the virtue of these lands—they belong to the best in the state, but anyone who has not means enough in the outset to face two-thirds of the price and the cost of necessary im ad better leave them alon Coal.
