They are driving away people of moderate means ‘who are desirous of locating here. A 'aas inspootor in St. Louis has de- livered a lecture on ‘“‘The Veracity of Gas Meters.” The people of Omaha would like him lecture on that subject as well as the voracity of gas moters.

MixNzarous and St. Paul have been quarreling for. sevoral years as to which is the terminus of the Northern Pacific. This matter will be settled shortly when the Northern Pacific finishes its oxten- sion to Chicago. Ex-Governor Foster, of Ohio, is now taking his revenge for being left out cf Arthur's cabinet. He sees nothing but disaster in Arthur's nomination. Mr. Foster probably has an eye on the main chance himself. He expects to come in a8 an Ohio dark horse. Tuk Towa logislature proposes to sit down on the army of quacks in that state, It appears that the loose medical laws of Iowa have afforded a fine field for «quacks who have been driven out of other states, The legislaturo of Iowa will un- doubtedly pass a very stringent law regu- Iating the practice of medicine, and the impostors wil have to emigrate. Lravviiix has been very unfortunate with its banks. One year ago there were in that city four banks, all of which were supposed to be prospering, These four ‘banks have within this short period all gone to the wall, and there now remains in Leadville dut one bank, which was recently established. The failures are at- tributed tobad management and rascality. In this connection the Denver News says: ‘“‘The Bank of Leadville was ruined by the political ambition and reckless conduct of its president, the last republican candidate for governor. The City Bank of Leadvillo closed up its affairs in consequence of sonseless quar. rels among its diroctors. The First Na. tional bank was ruined by the rascality ©f its president, Dewalt, who is now a fugitive from justice. It is not easy now to tell just what provoked the run on the Merchants and Mechanics bank, which failod to meet the demands made upon it yesterday. * * * Tho failures will have no effect in Denver, Our banksare “all strong in funds, and there is complete confidence on the part of depositors. The financial condition of the community was never better, and there is nothing in the visible future to cause the slightest alsrm in sny quarter,” E———————— ‘W are challenged by the Republican to produce proofs of any dissatisfaction with the railway commissioner system in Towa.

The system of education that has pre- vailed for centuries is not suitable for this busy practical age, and particularly in the United States. The time has passed when education should be devoted to the mind alone. Too much time is wasted in tho study of tho dead lan guages and other branches that are of no practical use when one is thrown upon his own resources to earn a livelihood, How many young men there are who, upon graduating from college, find thom- wolves at a loss to know what to do in a practical way. They have an education, it is true, but they hardly know what to do with it. They canndt enter into the field of mechanical labor, invention, or manufacturing, and the result is that they seok some of the professions, which EET I S R postal telegraph under consideratioh, | material is crude, sithough very quick to that the Western Union proposes in the |learn the drill and fall into military nenr fature to_make a large reduction tn | Babits. A its tarifl. Does Mr. Green imagine that there is anything green about that com- mittee! Two facts are conspicuons in French politics at the present moment; the one, that the revision of the constitution, so long discussed as a thing not likely to come to pass, has_now been fully deter- mined upon; and the other, that the church has 80 altered its attitude toward the French government as to cause marked surprise even among those who are accustomed to attribute Jesuitical motives to every generous movement of churchmen. While the Romanists have idently got the watchword to bo par- ticularly sweet to all except the radical republicans, the ministry and the moder- ago, namely, that the stato should re-|ntes generslly—very likely, urged to coive the full benofit of the convict labor; | their change of sentiment by the recent that the labor of conviots should not be | visit of a certain German personage to Rome, and the announcement of the Italian alliance with tho great Austro- CONVIOT LABOR. The convict labor-contract system ia being discussed by the Now Jersey leg- islature, The house committoe, ap- pointed last year to investigate the sub- jeot, has prepared its report, and recom- mends the adoption of the ideas which were suggested in Te Bee a few weeks put on the market at a less rate than are overcrowded, or some genteel occu- pation—generally clerking or book-keep- ¥ng. There are probably to-day more un- employed clerks and book-keepers than almost any other class of gentoel “labor- ors.” As a rule, the strictly college-bred youth regards an artisan with con- tempt, and looks upon his labor 2z & menisl occupation. The sooner this idea is corrected the better, and the only way to correct it is in improving our system of education by introducing man- ual training in our achools and colleges, moro especially in the former. Instruc- tion in the mechanical arts and manufac turing industries should be made an im- portant part of the higher grades of schools, the object being, of course, to prepare boys and girls to make their own way in the world. The old system of trade apprenticeship has become almost a thing of the past, and hence we have so fow really first-class artisans, a fact that in indeed deplorable, Industrial educa- tion would to a great extent remedy this serious defect. The field for competent artisans, mechanics and inventors is almost unlimited, not only for making a comfortable living, but for winning fame and fortuno, Look at the wonderful range of possibilities for a practically edu. cated man in the field covered by machi- nery, stea.a, electricity, chemistry and the manifold manufacturing industries. Yot how fow of our highly educated young men know anything about the mechanical arts, and to whom steam and electricity and the uses to which they are applied are mysteries. The thinking people of this country are beginning to realize the value of in- dustrial education, and it ia gratifying to note that here and there steps have been taken to promote instruction in the me- chanical arts. The Boston Institute of Technology is probably the leading insti tution of this kind in the United States, and it is meeting with great success, In France there are quite a number of such schools, some of which are maintained by manufacturers in order that they can se- cure skilled help. American manufac- turers, particularly those engaged in manufacturing textile fabrics, contem- plate the establishment of such schools to train American operatives rather than depend upon foreign skilled help. In somo of the states thero are industrial dopartments attached to the state uni- versity, and in some instances, where rightly conducted, they are proving very efficient in manua training, The president of the Chicago board of education in his recent annual report recommends that manual training should be madea branch of the high achool course, and we believe that in Boston manusl training has recently been incor- porated in the public school system. In other cities the matter ia being seriously considered, and wo believe the day is not far distant when manual training will be combined with the education of the mind, so that when our boys and girls loave school and go out into the world they will be fully prepared to make their own way, instead of being burdens to those who have reared them. This pro- gressive age has no use for ornamental education—it is the practical thatis in demand, 2 GOVERNMENT RAILROAD DIRECTORS. The people are beginning to learn what the government directors of the if| Dillon, Union Fecific railway really are, No where in their labered report of nearly one hundred printed pages, is there found anything but commendation of the management of the road, and the men go out of their way to some extent to dis- ouss and defend the land grant policy. They even go so far as to plead for an ex- tension of time dn the payment of the obligations of the rond. While confident that the road will be able to pay off its government debts, they beliove that if forced to settle when they become due it will be placed in a disastrous situation, It seems to us that the railroad company oould not have prepared a more favorable report if it had had the work done by ite own attorneys at the diotation of its own directors, It is rather siugular that the governmenment directors in taking legal advice as to the validity of the tripartite pool contract should have consulted the Union Pacific general attorney, Ex-Judge who of ocourse told them in answer to their inquiry upon the sub- ject, that the tripartite contract was not @ violation of the charter, and thereupon thoy ratified, the contract, Notwith- standing congress intended, when it aided railroad construction by magnificent land grants and subsidies, to encourage com- petition, the government directors by their action foster and encourage the opposite policy. It is no wonder that the Union Pacific gevernwment directors a4 frauds and to regard their aunual re. ports as mere mockeries, So far these direotors have rendered no valuable ser- vioe except to the railroad, E—— the people are beginning to look upou (000 from Da. Norvix GrrkN assures the senate | tar honeat labor, and that the convict should | GGerman mulitary power—are excessively have some part of his earnings to aid his [ polita to_every ome who wears the family and to assist him in making an|black robe. ~In short, both sides protest a little too much; still the ten sion is far less than it has been for many years, and in profiting largely by it M. Ferry shows his great shrewdness and marked skill. That he is an able man is sufficiently shown by the quickness with which, after he had acnieved popularity by a good stroke, ho brought forward his programme, snubbed the radicals, patted the church followers on the back, and in a few days made honest start in life upon his release from prison. In their report the committee recommends the adoption of the *‘piece system.” Under it the propor agent of the state can be authorized to contract with responsible parties for the manu- facture of any article, stipulating in all cases that tho price paid shall not be less than the rate laborers receive outside the friends out of those who had once been his deadly enemies. M. Ferry has been roundly abused for announcing his inten- tion to bring about a révision of the con- stitution, on the double ground that it would give an opportunity to the royalist party on the one hand, and to the ultra- radicals on the other. It does not appear to be altogether the leap in the Snrk which his adversaries represent it to be, By taking the initiative of the mensure he cuts the ground from under the feet of the extremists, who, had he not done so, would have organized an agitation which might have proved dangerous. Possessing, as he does, a clear majority both in the senate and the chamber of deputies, he is entitled to consider that he hasa fair chance of conducting the revision, so that it will not be the radical and revolution- ary measure it would be under a weaker tor. Moreover, M. Ferry's critics in France, and in ngland, might possi- bly reflect that he is the only French- man in high effice who is not an absolute tyro in politics. His public life dates from twenty years back, and the lessons of experience have possibly not been thrown away upon him. prison. It being admitted, the report says, that a convict porforms 76 per cent of the work done by a laborer eutside of prison, the state will receive by the piece system 81.50 per day, where it only now gets 60 cents. The report rec- ommends that convicts be given two- thirds of thoir earnings over 75 cents a day. As the New Jersey legislaturo has recently done some very sensible things, it is likely that the committee's report will be adopted and the recommendations carried out, Political excitement in Great Britain is intense on the eve of the session of parliament. An urgent summons has been issued to the conservatives to “‘whip"” the state's amendmont relative to the Egyptian policy. An important division will be taken in the house of commons on the 7th of February. A delegation of workingmen have presented an address to Gladstone asking for an oxtension of the right of sufirage, Mr. Gladstone assured the workingmen that the government was favorably inclined toward this important reform, which would bo brought about at an early day if tho government is not hampered by obstructive methods. This was virtually an appeal to the working people against Parnell and his followers, whose policy in to obatruct the party in power at every step. Latest advices from Egypt indicate that the forces under General Baker are making successful resistance to the in- cursions of the followers of the False Prophet. General Gordon is expected to reach Khartoum within a few days, and his presence will inspire new life into the panicky Egyptians. The fact that the Rothschilds have advanced several millions to the khedive, would indicate that tho capitalists have faith in the abil- ity of the British government to sustain the khedive in Egypt against all adversa- ries. Just as soon as General Gordon reaches Khartoum his appointment as governor general will be publicly proclaimed at the military posts throughout the Sou dan, in the hope that it will produce a reaction in the tribes in favor of the government. The concentration of the garrisons at Khartoum will give General Gordon seventeen thousand troops. The general has obtained full powers to evao. uate or defend Khartoum and treat with or fight the mehdi as he sees fit. The cabinet councils are understood to be eagaged, among other things, in set- tling upon a draft for a reformbill, The general pe is agreed to bo anextension of the franchise. Redistribution will not make a part of the same bill, nor will the ministry probably make the expected statement of their views of redistribution, It is certain that Ireland will be inelud- ed. The Irish franchise will be assimi- lated to the English. Votes based on a purely property qualification, now nu- merous in English counties, will be swept away, ‘“‘fagots,” of course, included. Some means will ba found to deal with faney franchises in 8 manner to remeve anomalios and to establish sufirage on a national liberal basis identical in the three kingdoms, The outlines of the German and Aus n alliance have at lastbeen made pub- The present Austro-German alliance may be styled offensive and defen- sive, though the principal point of the agreement is that of ‘‘assistance in case of need.” Thus in case of war either party can call for the assistance of its ally if thenecessity de- mands its aid, and not alone, as The Cologne Gazette asserts, in the case of two opponents joiningforces against one. Cho necessity arises if one of the allied powers being engaged-in war finds itself in difficulty or liable to defeat, and in this case the ally is bound to render mil- i ary assistance. The actual mobilization of the ally, however, is not necessary until the necessity becomes actual. This a,liance sprang from the recent threaten- ed danger of a Russian attack on Aus. tria. Italy is also connected with this al- liance, but in a different manner, result- ing from her geographca! position. Bismarck, it is said, contemplates a change of policy in the government of Alsace-Lorraine, If so the count shows mercy as well as wisdom. The people of Alsace-Lorraine have felt their burdens werribly ever since they became subjects of Kmiser William at the close of the Franco-Prussianwar, and their bitterness against Germany is as strong now as in 1870, Bismarck has hitherto studiously ignored all these circumstances. and hae treated the people of Alsace-Lorraine like a couquered tribe, forcing upon them the manners, language and institutions of their conquerors, The count has, per- haps, at last discovered thatkinduess and not oppression must be resorted to if he would bring the people of Alsace-Lor- raine into anything like cordiality with (Giermany, and the change of governmont policy may indicate the approach of a brighter and happier day for the prow- inces lost to France through the stupidi- #7 of Napoleon I1L, The Austrian government, as well as the Russian, seems likely to have to con- tend with the nihilists, who are appar- ently showing their old force and actiyity in Russia. he successful murder ot Colonel Sudeikim at St. Petersburg is the most clever pieco of work they have yet done. He had risen into power and fa- vor with the court altogether through the skill with which he hunted the nihilists down and frustrated their plots, and had escaped them a score of times, They caught him at last in actual consultation with his own must trusted employes, who seem to have been in the nihilist ranks, Ap}»amutly he had pushed.[the rule to ‘set a thief to catch a thief” a little too far, for he accepted the services of a captured and apparently converted conspirator, and relied om his gratitude to insure his fidelity. This man lured him to his doom. ~Colonel Sudeikin's death is sail to have again thrown the court into panic, for it shows that there is no al nlut.e security anywhere. The propagandism seems now to have reached Vienna, where an active detective has been shot down in the streot by a murderer, who is described as elegant and retined in exterior, but whom nobody knows, and who refuses to Latest advices from the seat of war in Tonquin represent the French as having mot with a serious repulse in their as- sault upon Bacninh, These reports are as yet unconfirmed, but the fact that nothing has been heard of Admiral Courbet, commanding the French forces, has oreated a wide-spread belief in Paris | w! : that he has met with some reverse, That E‘_"" ;"i' """: ;‘l:““;l _"3’“’"’5 :b""" the Chinese have been massing a large| ¢ %" ©X00P ! 0 58 S0 OR0RN 08 8 force at Bacninh to resist the French H AR pommaiiee army is undoubtedly a fact. The Chinese governmeot is very well prepared for a war—far better than is gonerally understood, The lack of rail- roads, however, is a serious deficiency, and railroads will not be built until the government abandons tho tradition that no measure must be tolerated which is likely, in the celestial imagination, to in- jure the people in any way, The Chinese view of railroads 1s that they will deprive Nfi‘iu mance ro ecclesiastical influence boatmen, trackers, the millions en-|which, in Spain, is always pulling, or aged in freighting by haud or back, of |t country back to the ..u' ouuu n&to ‘, hmtnfiullsdud R Aanwwnlnsg:- -suppor at & foreign war coul uced to part with his favorite in not tlu:?ood upply.

On what scale they were held-—how gen erally the departments of the interior participated in them—is not stated. But it is probablo that there has been quite as respectable an expression of popular will as ever ocours in an electionin Peru, During the 62 years of Peruvianindepen- dence it has never been consulted with entire fairness and fullness. It is likely that the condition of our own government properly has required as a preliminary to recognizing Iulesias that there shall be something like a dis- play of free will in his favor, and not a mere extortion of obedionce by the pres- ence of Chilian troops—will be found to b fulfilled nt nearly as may be, and that his recos u at Washington will speed- ily follow. And in the present condition of Poru it will apparently be the best thing for that country if he can sustain himself without bloodshed, not only through the process of ratifying the treaty, but afterward. There 18 no indi- cation at present that when the Chilians have gone any revolution which would oust him as a penalty for making this treaty would put so respectable a man into his place. The pilgrimage to the grave of Victor Emmanuel, which seems to have been a counter-demonstration to that of the Catholics in honor of the pope, has been a great success. The number of pilgrims amounts to about 20,000, who in the pro- oession displayed more than 700 banners, including some sent from Salonica, Bucharest, Trieste, Paris, Valparaiso, Shanghia, Smyrna, Yokohama, Mel- bourne, Tifiis, Athens, St. Petersburg, etc., otc. Upon the tomb were placed 850 crowns, of which thirty wero of bronze, four of silver, two of bronze- wilt, and one of gold. The demonstra- tion is said by the Italisn papers to have been most imposing, favored as it was by good weather. The new harbor of Trieste, which has lately been finished with great ceremony, is a romarkablo piece of modern engineer- ing. It has taken fifteen years' woik and has cost over $7,000,000, It con- sists of nearly two miles of quays, ar- ranged to inclose threo basins of eighty- five acres of water surface, and these are protected by a 8600-fect long sea-wall running parallel with the shore and 1,000 from it. The work has been one of enormous difficulties because of the un- stable bottom, and it is stated that the walls when once under way sank grad- ually for a year, then suddenly slinped forward and out of sight. But the pres- ent walls have already with- stood two of the greatest gales known in this century. The importance of this work to Austria must be very great. It is the chief seaport of the country, it has a large mercantile navy, and its exports foot up $50,000,000 a year, and its imports $70,000,000. But its little harbor, constructed by Maria 'heresa in the last century, has been en- tirely inadequate to its steadily growing commerco. No vessel of mere than 300 tons burden could come to its quays, and though larger craft could find generally safe anchorage in the outer roadstead, they have been exposed to danger from southerly storms, The new piers now make it possible for vessels of any size to find safe shelter im the harbor of Trieste. Huntington's “'hl’)lcn:le" Purchase. 7o the Editor of The Beo: The astonishing facts coming to light through the Colton-Hunti:gton suit is enough to make the pubuc think that some of the past congresses should have been furnished with striped suits and their heads shaved, It 1s plain that if justice was meted out as it should be, thero are some members who would still receive the benefit of the state institu- tion for criminals, or be punished for their crimes as_traitors should be (i. e., hung.) Such disclosures as those coming from the pen of congress-purchasing Huntington, should show the people that the cry of unjust laws, and an un- juet administration of laws, is not an empty clamor, but has cause sufficient to warrant the outery. Ler everybody read and learn somethi f the character of the men who they have trusted, and spot the betrayor, and lev nono of them re- turn, nor let them find any friends at ome, for they are the worst evils this country has ever produced.

He is of the opinion that it was placed there by Indians, and that it was never covered with lead.
