This practice places presidential appointments in the hands of their repre sentatives in the senate, and they very properly must stand responsible to their constituents for the abuso of this power. They cannot and should not be allowed to shirk the rosponaibility under any pre- text.

General Logan has many warm friends in Nebraska, but under the lead of Vander- voort his boom in Nebraska will create but very little enthusiasm. Tur democratic national committee has fixed the date of their national conven- tion for July 8th. This will give the democratic congressmen full swing, as congress will adjourn by that time. Re- publican congressmen are at a disadvan- tage in this respect,unless the democratic House should be courteous enough to take a rocess for their benefit early in June. Sexaror VAN Wyek delivered an address at the New York board of trade banquet, - his text being “Our Public Parks.” He made no reference to Hanscom Park, but we venture to say that he made a few remarks about the forfeited land grants and the great landlord monopoly that fs being established by forwign capitalists. Tax explosion of dynamite which oc- curred at the Florence cut-off is very sug- gestive. The shock was felt not only in this city, seven miles distant, but also at Papillion, which is mora than fourteen miles away. [Had it oceurred within half a mile of the court house the damage to property would have bsen incalculable, Buildings that are regarded as very sub- stantial would have been ruined, and life would have been endangered. Theve are many explosives now stored in this city, which are liable to produce disaster un- less some precautions are taken. We have in the very heart of the business centre gas works that are liable at any time to be exploded by the accidental ig- iting of the most explosive gasses and oils. In every other city the gas works are located on the eutskirts, where an ex- plosion could do the least harm, Is it not high time to take somo steps to pre- vent this reckless exposure of life and property in Omaha? Suppose that a slaughter house or soap factory had been erected 1n the same spot when Omaha had 5,000 inhabitants, would not the city authorities long ago have taken steps to have such oftensive concerns removed as a sanitary precaution? The use of gasoline and volatile oils is becoming more jand more general in this city, and it be a maracle if wo escape a calawity like that which occurred at Alliance, Ohio, where a whole business block was destroyed and several lives were lost by the explosion of a small barrel of gasoline, SepE———— pecple will not hold President Arthur re- sponsible, but the blame must rest with their senators, Senator Manderson does not seem to comprehend this fact. His natural disposition is to be clever and genial, and his cleverness has botrayed him into a grave mistake, which is liable to cause him a graat deal of trouble in the future. Instead of exercising the privilege which is accorded to senators by usage and law, in conjunction with Senator Van Wyck, Mr. Manderson has, from the outset of his senatorial career, acted upon the presumption that the federal offices in Nebraska were the joint political property of the delegation in congreas to be divided by them like so much merchandise. Each member was to bo apportioned his share of office holders, and members were to sup- port each other's choice, regard- ess of fitness or anything else. By this extraordinary compact Senator Manderson fecls himself in honor bound to endorse and support any man whom Valentine, Weaver or Laird may choose for postmaster, excepting alone Omaha, Nebraska City and Lincoln, Under the {same poculiar arrangement Sonator Man- dorson supports for positions in the land officos ot the men whom he personnlly knowa to bo entitled to preferment by reason of good conduot, faithful party sos- vice and competency, but men whom the congressmen may select in their ro- spectivo districts. As a consequence Senator Manderson is upon the record as an endorser of some of the worat men in Nebraska, because Valentine has asked him to thus help him in paying political debts to his henchmen. He has even gone so far, at the bock of Congressman Laird, as to ask an honest and etucient officer like Receiver Sweilzer, at Bloomington, to send in his resignation, although his torm does not exyire for three years. And that in order to make a place for a politician to whom Laird is in debt for his nomination. Other instances could be named which would show in glaring colors the utter impreprioty of this system of bartor and traflic in offices which has sprung from the pooling of the foderal patronage by Nebraska represontatives. It may be a relief to the senator to get rid of the aunoyance of filling appointments bu he cannot afford to shivk the responsibilitys His constituents expect him to do his full duty, They do not propose to allow their senators to delegito their powors and assign their duties to anybody else. They do mnot oven propose to tolerate or condone tho shirking o this responaibility on the part of the sen- tors through what is known as senatorial courtesy, If Senator Van Wyck recom.- mends a bad or incompetent man for office, it is the duty of Senator Mander- son to enter his protest with the presi- dent and cabinet, and if the appointment ia sont to the senate in spite of his pro- test, it is his duty to make every effort to defeat the confirmation. Senator Van Wyck is held equally responsible for all presidential appointments, even though endorsed by Valentine, Weaver, Ox#: of the most horrible crimes ever committed was the deliberate murder of Boverly Taylor and wife and their adopt- ed child, Eliza Jane Cramer, by two ne- groes, for the purpose of selling their bodies to the medical college. The mur- derers have been arrested, and one of them has made a full confession. They have been engaged for several months in furnishing subjects for the dissecting ta- ble. What surprises us is that none of the Ohio medical college authorities have teon arrested as accessories in the crime, for they must have known upon examination of the bodies that they bore marks of violence, and had undoubtedly boen murdered. Why did they not at once inform the officers of the law! By accepting the bodies and keeping silence, they have, under the circumstances, un- questionably become accessories in this most revolting crime, and should be punished accordingly. The robbing of gravoyards is indeed a light offense as compared with this cruel and mercenary murder, the only object of which was to secure threo subjects for the dissecting table, at flfteen dollars each. Better that alllexperimental surgery be forever aban- doned than that such foul means be re- sorted to to secure subjects for dissec- tion, Tue Bee has no disposition to do any man injustice, whether he is in public or private life. Our aim has been and is to fearlessly discuss matters of public con- cern, and when we have reason to be- lieve that improper methods are pursued to expose and denounce corruption and jobbery. In its career of thirteen years Tur Bee has rarely made a mistake in its criticision of public men, and then only were it has been unintontially misled by erronsous reports, Such an instance has happened in our recent censure of Mr. Joseph Barker, who was charged with an attempt to forco sandstone as a material for curbing and guttering Farnam strest. The report as conveyed to us was incor- rect. The contract for paving Farnam street with granite includes the entire | street from curb to curb. The eon- troversy in tho board of public works was about the curbing of other stroets that are to be paved with asphalt, whers a choice is to be made between sandstoue and limestone curbing. We cheerfully oxonerate Mr. Barker from any design of jobbery in the premises. Ir such a thing as an insult could be offered to the memory of George Wash- ington, the unveiling of the statue of Robert E. Lee at Now Orleans on Wash- ington’s birthday fell little short of it. Monuments to confederate heroes may be proper enough in their places, where troason passos for patriotism, but it does seem singular that the ex-confederates must put their leaders upon the same plane as Geerge Washington. The next thing that we shall hear of will be that the confederates will erect a monument | to Jeff Davis and unveil it on Independ- | ence day. Dakora will probably be the next state, but she will not be admitted until after the next presidential election. The senate committee on territories has agreed tqreport favorably a bill for the admission of the southern half of the territory asa state. A constitutional convention will be held on the second Tuesday of next November, Senator | tarrison believes the bill will pass, and Senators Manderson, Wilson and others coincide with hisZviews. Tug thirty-day bonanza senator of Colorado has once more entered the arena of politics. My, Tabor announces himaelf, through his personal organ, as a cendidate for governor, and he promises to use only legitimate means to secure the nomination, It is hoped that he will not be compelled to pawn his §250 night shirts to get the nomination in a logiti- mate way. ‘‘Legitimate” in Colorado, whero the voters are bought in herd lots, is decidedly significant, tleman of another. ‘“‘Very much indeed,’ was the reply, “and I was glad to see that others enjoyed it. Among those who were present I noticed many of the prominent old settlors, who were pioneers along with Dr, Miller, in 1854 Everybody knew each othor, and there was a pleasing air of cordial | sociability prevailing throughont the entire .

Tt onlargos his ideas, and serves to make hin appreciate his own country. 1 am glad to see that the doctor has accepted an invitation to lecturo o his_European trip at the opera house on next Monday evening for the benefit of the Ohio river flood sufferers. 1 am sure that the audience will be well entertained.” “Talking about Kurope reminds that (uite & number of Omaha’s prominent citizons have made tours across the Atlantic for the purpose of sight-seeing,” said a gentioman at the reception given to Dr. Miller, the other evening, in honor of his return from Furope. “There’s Charley Dewey, who is the most ex- tensive traveler in Omaha. He has not only visited Europo two or threo times, but he has been around the world, Charley ‘can enter- tain you for hours with his talk about his travels.

I had intend- od to go to Burope first, and do up our own country afterwards, but I was lod to roverse my plan by rending a rather humorous but truthful little story in a newspaper the other day, Here it s: 4Y e, sir,” said the American millionaire, as ho consulted the American bill of fare in a Parsian “cafe, “I delight in travel.
