Tae pressure for Senator McMillan's appointment to the judgeship vacated by Judge McCrary,does not come from Sen- ator McMillan or his political friends,but from leaders who have their lightning- rods up for senatorial positions. Tne location of the next Grand Army reunion at Fremont is not only a good thing for Fremont, but also for the re- union, as the large attendance from Omaha will make it success finan- cially as well as in every other respect.

It is a pretty difficult thing to dlstinguish a'| Cuban patriot from a bandit. —_— Tue Towa legislature was bound to give Mr. Allison a clear title to his seat in the senate. They had some doubt about the law regulating senatorial eloc- tions, and so they elected him the sec- ond time in order to prevent his being counted out. It is to be hoped now that no Iowa democrat will try to contest his seat, Ix a spoech delivered at ananti-slavery meeting in Syracuse, N.

That settles it. France will now remove the embargo on the American hog. Tar Philadelphia Call thus hits the nail squarely on the head: ‘‘The rail- road argument is: No. 1, That congress has no power to interfere in any way with the chartered privileges of the cor- porations in the ssveral states. No, 2, The state legislatures have no power to annul or modify charters which have not been abandoned or exceeded. No, 3. Nobody has any power in the matter.” E—————— Tur Montana constitutional conven- tion had s very lively debate over a reso- lution having in view the prohibition of state officors and members of the legisla- ture receiving railroad passes, The reso- lution was voted down, probably because the members of the convention not only had their pockets lined with passes but boecause they also entertained hopes of some day being ofticers of the state of Montans that is to be.

The sad announcement caused general surprise, a8 no one for a moment supposed that he was dangerously ill. Mr. Mackey was a native of South Carolina, having been born in Charles- He was He identified himself with the republi- was prominent in politics to his death. Ho was admitted to the bar in 1808, but | continued active in politics, be- ing olected to various municipal, county, and state offices. In 1874 he was elected to congress from the Charleston district. He was speaker of the lower house of the republican legis- | lature of South Carolina in 1876 during the controversy in that state over the | eloction of Hampton or Chamberlain as governor, and over the electoral vote. |The compromise subsequently entered into gave the state legislature to the | democrats and the electoral vote to the | republicans. He was a candidate for a seat in the forty-sixth congress, but was defeated, and, though he contested, never reccived the seat. He was elected {to the forty-seventh and forty-eighth congrosses, Mr. Mackey's death will be a great loss to the republican party of South Carolina, He was rogarded as one of the shrewdest politicians in either party in his state. In the present congress Mr. Mackey was the only white republican congressman from the south, the only other republican representative being a colored man with the Irish name of O'Hara, of North Carolina, who made the announcement of Mr. Mackey's death. The death of Mr. Mackey makes the | sixth that has occurred in the house of representatives since the election of the forty-eighth congress a year ago last November., Those who have died are Herndon, of Alabama, who died before the adjournment of the forty-seventh congress; Cutts, of Towa, who died dur- ing the vacation; Haskell, of Kansas, who died shortly after congress convened, Herron, of Louisiana, who also died last summer, and Poole, of South arolina, who died before the assembling of con- gress. Tur senate having voted a thousand dollar clerk to those senators who are not chairmen of committees, the house is now discussing the proposition to pro- vide its members with private secretaries. A great many of the representatives, who are really in fgvor of the measure, dare not vote for it, as they are afraid that their constituents will look upon it as a salary grab, “Itisall very well,” said Representative Dockery, of Missouri, “and very true that it would be public economy to provide every member with a olerk, but it would take more time and money for me to make my constituents understand that fact than it would to do my own work or hire it done, conse- quently I shall not vote for the proposi- tion if it offered.” This is the general feeling among members. The fact is not widely known that a large number of representatives already have clerks at government expense, They provide or a departmental clerk for ‘the consideration of his services evenings and mdrnings, as needed. The clerk is borne on the rolls of some executive depart- ment, but performs very little of the le- gitimate labor of the office, being com- pelled to get out his patron’s letters at his official desk. The scheme does not work 8o well since the second advent of civil service reform, as such places can not now be had for the asking., The main reason that the representatives do not feel inclined to vote for this measure is that they are elected by the people every two years, and they do not feel rmtueoul or the responsibility of an advanse in life proservers and bottled beer stoppors! This embargo on cork is too serious & matter to trifle with. Acconping to the St. Louis Globe- Democrat, Senator Manderson is urging the reappdintment of Honry M. Atkinson as surveyor general of New Mexico. Senator Manderson might just as well endorse Star Route Dorsey for the posi- tion. 1f he know as much sbout Atkin- son and his work aa we do, he would keep his hands off from any paper en- dorsing him, Axorikr telegraph company has been organized withan alleged capital of 813,- 000,000, with the privilege of watering it to the extent of 7,000,000 more.

GEOLOCG AL MA l’i'!‘ i‘IlK WEST, Quite an importaut scientific work has recently been completed by the United States geological survey. 1t is the pub- lication of a map showing the extent of tho exposed areas of the principal geolo- gical formations in the region explored by the Hayden survey between 1869 and 1880. The celored portions embrace the whole of Wyoming and Colorado, the western parts of Dakota and Nebraska, the eastern portion of Utah, the greater part of Montana, anda piece of eastern Idaho. The Philadelphia ress in de- scribing this map says: Tke most extensive, and indeed most interesting formations, since it is from them that the rich fossil faunny, described by Leidy, Cope and Marsh, has been ob- tained, are the various horizons of ter- tiary, the Laramie, or post-cretaceons, and the cretaceos, The map shows a large mass of tertiary strata occupying almost the whole of western Nebraska, and extending into eastern Wyoming. To the west of the Rocky Mountains, in the elevated plateau of the Great Basin, an- other considerable area of tertial strata covers southwestern Wyoming and north- western Colorado, grouped around Green River. The most remarkable of the for- mations is that known as the Laramie. One of all the numerous fossil animals found 1n this formation not a single one is known to be identical with those found in the tertiary, and three that still exist. This extensive area is the battle ground of the palacontologists, whose opin- ions are divided as to whether it is tertiary. These Lara- mie, or post-cretaceous beds, cover the greater part of Western Dakota and East- ern Montana, from whence they run north into British America. A tongue from this mass runs southward intoMon- tana and bends westward along Wind river. FWurther to the south detached areas occur in Wyoming and Colorado; a large mass exists in the northeast of tho latter state, and in the southeast is another area, extending into New Mex- ico, Similar beds appear to occur in Mexico, West of the Missouri, in Da- kota, and extending westward around the Black Hills, is an extensive bed of | crotaceous. Similar beds occur upon the opposite side of the Missouri, running z‘p into_ the British possessions. entral Montana contains a mass of cretaceous, and along both sides of the Rocky mountains isolated patches are found, the largest in the south of Colo- rado. A connected accountof the plants and animals that in former ages existed in this region has yet to be written, but the materials for it exist in the bulky quartos of the geological survey. The mountain masses consist of vol- canic and metamorphic rocks, uptilted against the sides of which ocet urian, carboniferous and other ancient stratified rocks. No workable coalbeds have yet been found in the carboriferous beds west of the 104th meridian., AL L WEST OF THE MISSOURI. The people of Seward are not easily satisfied. They hanker for another rail- road, they have been offered one, and still thoy are not content. A few weeks ago they decided to invite the Union Pa- cific to build to the town, and a commit- tee was appointed to investigate and re like making explanations to their con- stituents, The senators, on the other hand, are olected by the legislatures for six years, and, consequently, are more independent. In the matter of filling vacancies Pres- ident Arthur is proseeding altogether too slowly to suit the average congressman, The trouble is that the president finds it difficult to select from the army of appli- cants mon who would satisfy everybody. 1t is probably his desire to please every body that causes the delay. There are a number of importsnt postoflices, the but under the law the incumbents are entitled to act until their successors are appointed and qualified. There has been for several weeks a vacancy in the Kighth United Stated judicial aircuit, but con. gressmen who have interestéd themselves in securing a sucocessor are unable to ob- tain information as to the time when he will be appointed. —— Tae latest aspirant for the judicial shoes of Judge McCreary, is Judge Da- vid Wagner,of Missourl, whose appoint- ment is being urged by the entire con. gressional delegation of that state, but inasmuch as Missouri has no electoral votes to give to the next republican nom. inee for president, it is not likely that Judge Wagner will ornamet the bench in the eighth judicial cireuit. —— Waar show will the American hog business keeps on? Even little Portugal now puts ou airs and sticks up it 10se at our pet product, and says that it shall uot enter that country. As a measure of re- uot be buried | taliation it is suggested that we putau a:'hw“m. embargo on the importation of cork from terms of whose incumbents have expired, | POP! [port on what terms the coveted boon could be secured, Meanwhile the noto- rious Claudius Jones hurried to the U, P, headquarters, consulted with some of the officials,and telegraphed the committee to stay at home. While the veteran railroad capper was in Omaha he secured admis- sion to the extension ring, and in a few days the Omaha, Seward & Republican Valley railroad company was organized and ready to receive donations. It was expocted that‘‘Seward” in the titlewould bo a taking card with the townspeople. nd then you know it would be en- tirely knew, a kind of nickle-plate anti- monopoly road built for the good of the le. Bonds would easily carry, and they could be turned over to the Union Pacific without a contest. Claudius and Carns would get a good*‘rebate’ and Ya sibly the Tnonl management of the line in political campaigns. ~ It waa a bold, cheeky plan, but it did not carry, . The fact is, that Claudius and Carns know the producers of Seward county will not vote bonds to the Union Pacific nor to any other road, It would be folly for them to motgage themselves to help build a railroad in the hope of getting competition—an article that has been ed out of the Union, At every point touched by the B, & M. and the U, P, the tariffs of both are the same to g points, and there is no such thing as_competition. ‘While another railroad through Sew- ard ccunty would benefit some localities, it would not pay to give $75,000 for it, The Jones are interested, ho ever, and it would not be lu?rhing il they succeed in feathering their nest some future day. The Burlington has already commenced work on the extension to Grand Island, 1t is reported that a contract for thirty miles of the road has been let, the work to be comploted by May 1st. This fact will give Grand Island an unexpected but agrzeable boost ‘on the road to lators are already in | ner lots and highly colored pictures of future greatnoss. Several young busi- ness men of this city have about decided to start branch houses there. Plattsmouth is on the anxious bench. Railroad rumors are a constant source of irritation and a surveyor's flagstaff is the nightmare of the city. The B. & M. shops there give employment to a large number of men, yet the town would rob Creston if it had half a chance. The latest scare is based on the arrival of a surveying gang whose movements are watched with the keenest interest. They have commenced at the bridge, and are setting stakes directly west. Some peo- ple believe it means the abandonment of the river line, and the construction of a cut off which would carry the main_ line beyond the Platte bend and avoid the dangers of that portion of the line. This is hardly possible, as it would lengthen the Omaha line and make it an unde- sirable roundabout route for passengers goint west. It is well known that the yards of the company in the city are too cramped—hedged in by the river on one side and high blufis an” the other. The tortuous route to the bridge is also a dangerous and difficult piece of road which the company desires to remedy. Hence if a route can be found among the bluffs on the west side of the city, con- necting with the present line near Ore- apolis, it will doubtless be built, and Plattsmouth can possess its soul in peace. Times are hard in Salt Lake, according to The Tribune. *‘The action of the rail- roads has flooded the town with goods, drained the town of money in paying freights, and prevented the farmers from selling the more valuable products of the s0il. By the policy of the Union Pacitic and its branches, the trade which Salt Lake built up in Tdaho and Montana has been taken away.” The Tribune urges on the business men to demand of the U. P, an equal chance for the trade of the adjoining territories, and in case the company refuses, that in. ducements be offered the Central Pacific to build a line through Idaho into Mon- tana. The condition of trade calls for desperate remedies. ‘‘It is better to deal with the U. P. if possible, but if that cannot be done, then the next best thing should be tried. There is no justice in the road taking from this peint the trade which naturally belongs to it; it isa Kower which no railroad company should e given, and when usurped, it should be fought.” The sheep men of Colorado have raised their voice for the old tariff on wool. One of the reasons for this cry is given by a prominent herder. Ho says: **Something must be done at once by congress or the sheep interests will be ruined in Colo- rado, owing to the heavy expensesin feeding entailed upon all raisers during this winter, The snows have been 8o deep and the weather 80 cold that great losses have been sustained, and it often costs about thirty cents per day for each head, for hay and oats. The snow is three feet deep on a level on all the ranges, and it 18 impossible to graze Snow has been falling on snow since De- cember 5, on which date the growers commenced feeding hay, continuing ever since. The losses in herds have alsobeen diccouragingly large. Wholesalo deaths are reported on every side from freezing. In one case, out of a herd of 600 sheep, 320 have died; in another instance 700 lambs out of a herd of 800 have perished from snow and cold. OFf course these losses are not equalled on all ranges, but it is estimated that in the vicinity of the ?:iw'fl 3,000 out of 50,000 animals have ied.” This is a new and novel call for protec- tion, and will evoke the sympathies of every man, woman and child who wear woolen goods. It would be so generous of the nation to levy a tax on nine-tenths of the people, Lo rescuo’ the other one- tenth from bankruptey or loeses caused by winter weather. While in a liberal mood Unele Sam might be induced to build a shed over Colorado and feed the shorn lambs on buckwheat cakes and rams’ horn soup till the spring thaws set in. The constitutional convention of Mon- tana 18 not a noisy body. It is so numer- ically weak that the youthful statesman cannot be heard beyond Poverty gulch. A majority of the members elected last fall were democrats, but the fact that the positions were without pay or prospective emoluments quite a number resigned or fuiled to qualify. A great many look upon the convention as usclessjat the present time, ‘There is no prospect of securing admission into the Union the present year. The plan is to prepare_the constitution, submit it to a vote of the people next fall, and then press the claims for statehood on congress. It is believed that after the presidential elec tion congress will drop political consid- erations and pass upon the claims of both Dakota and Montana purely on their merits and population, The materials thus far submitted for incorporation in the constitution show quite conclusively that the delegates have an earnest purpose to frame an or- ganic law in the interest of labor, against the aggr-ssion of capital and corporate rapacity, In mln{ eastern states, where monopoly has held unrestricted sway, constitutional pro mshave been adopt- ed to correct the evils brought about by that malign influence, and to protect the weak against the cr-nnny of the strong. The most liberal of these provisions are selected from the ]propomd organic law, and it is reasnable to believe that the constitution of Montana, framed by these two score of miners and lawyers, will be worthy the adoption of the people for whom they act, and will be as wisely designed to promote the welfare of so- ciety and secure even-handed justice to all classes as any of the thirty-eight con- ;fitutiom that form the basis of written aw, The questien of fuel supply is one that comes directly home to the people of the trecless west every winter, The main sources of supply in Wyoming and Colo- rado are controlled by corporations—the Union Pacific, the Burlington and the Colorado Coal and Iron company. The mines in Wyoming, from which Nebras- ka is principally supplied, are enormous in ares and Ppractically inexhaustible, yet it is impossible for any other individual Or company £ mine coal in the t.vritory :{nd find & market for it on the railroad. ence, the com 0" nopoly which w u’mhti:u: m :::»"-:u railroad from the east reaches the terri- tory. As a general thing, purchasers do not complain 8o much of the price as the quality of the coal furnished and the in sufficiency of the supply. 1In this city every ton of coal sold for the last six weeks was fully one-fourth dust, or the refuse of the mines, and the delivery has frequently been four days behind orders, At many towns 100 and 200 miles west of this city the price is the same as here, while on the branch lines it is higher and the supply short. The company has un- dertaken too much of a job, but it pays s0 well there is no danger that it will loosen ita grip and permit others to enter the business. The company operates twelve mines in Wyoming and one in Utah, which, in the aggregate send out an average ot 4,100 tons of coal per day. At Carbon tliree mines _are npmm{. turning out 1,300 tons daily; Rock Springs, five mines, 1,600 tons; Almy, two, 809 tons; Twin Creek, two, 300 tons; (irass Creek, Utah, one mine, 200 tons. These mines give employment to about 2,200 men. All these mines except those at Twin Creek supply the market with coal as well as supplyine the road. The Union Pacific also does much® in the coal business in Colorado, operating two mines at Erie, two at Como, one at Baldwin and one at Louisville, the total daily output being about 1,300 tons. This great industry is all the time becoming greater, the de- mand increasing with every new settler, increase of business on the roads and extension of country supplied through opening new lines of communication, Portions of both Idaho and Montana now draw supplies of fuel from Wyom- ing. Machine Politics Within the Itepub- lican Party. Holt County Banner. Nothing so seriously threatens the fu- ture success of the republican party in this state, and especially in this part of the state, as does the machine methods by which those who have been placed in high position by the people, seek to pro- long their ofiicial career by coercion and undue influence. E. K. Valentine, prior to his last election, grossly abused the power placed in his hands, with a view to secure_a ro-clection. Both the land offices and postoffices of his district were used by hunself in some instances and by his ovér zealousfriends in others to coerce the people and to subsidize the press. A republican paper in Boone county was notified that it could have no land oftice printing because it opposed the nomina- tion of Valentine. We were told by B. F. Chambers, of Niobrara land office, that if we would publish a STRAIGHT republi- can paper he would give us a share of the land oftice printing. We told him that"was the kind of a paper we were printing, to which_he replied, *‘Oh, no, auti-monopoly.” We asked him if asa republitan, we had not a right to enter- tain anti-monbpoly views. He said we would have to drop anti-monopolyism be- fore he would give us any land office printing. This was prior to the conven- tion and we understood his meaning. We must either turn in with The Omaha Republican, then owned by the U. P. railroad and help to nominate Valentine or go without landoffice printing, Cham- bers, however, found that we were not to be bought in that manner and the people of Holt county gave Turner a plurality vote at the poils, Sometime prior to the republican convention last fall, all of the members of the republican central com- mittee of this county signed a petition to the Niobrara landoffice asking that a share of the landoffice printing of this district be given to The Banner, which petition was wholly ignored. After the election, all of the republican county of- ficers elected, joined in a petition to the same Niobrara land office which was signed by the chairman and five other members of the new central committee, and byallof the republicanmembers of the O’Neill bar, and fifteen other prominent republicans, asking that half of the land- office printing which by law might be given to O'Neill papers, be given te the Holt County Banner. This petition was sent in several weeks ago with a special request that an answer be given as soon as convenient, whether or not the prayer of the petition will be granted. The officers of the landoffice do not deign to reply. What care they (they say by their actions) for The Bauner (which they cannot control) or the friends of The Banner, or the leading republicans of Holt county, county ofticers, central com- mittee, bar and all. If we would prom- ise to support Valentine for re-election next fall we have no doubt the landoflice would be both just and generous to this paper, but we regard Valentine asa heavy burden to the republican party of this district and as being either incompe- tent or unwilling to discharge in a credi- table manner the duties of his office, and such a man we cannot support. Neither can we renounce the position we have honestly taken on the anti-monopoly question.
