A vew explosions around Omaha will eause a riso in the price of glass. Ir March will only come in likea lamb, we can stand it if it goes out like a lion. Ir Governor Dawes should happen to have the privilege of appointing a United States senator, he would lose considera- ble sleep. Mz Gerg, of the State Journal, wauts to go to congress, but if he cannot go there he is willing to save his country by serving as postmanter at Lincoln. Ir Omaha was located within the do- minions of Queen Vicioria the recent explosions would be charged up to the acoount of the dynamite section. We hope that the regulator of the woather will keep some of the Manitoba ‘waves in store for use next summer, and not give them all to us this winter. THERE 18 a vacancy in the office of lieutenant-governor of Nebraska, but Church Howe positively declines to fill the place which is a vacuum with Agee in it. SeNATOR VEST, upon being importuned to vote, “for God's sake,” for the bill providing new cruisers for the navy, said that the Almighty had nothing todo with it, but that it was for John Roach’s sake. Sonator Vest is level-headed on this point. TaERy is so much talk and gossip among the political wire-workers about Senator Manderson’s probable appoint- THE STORAGK OF EXPLOSIVES. The explosion of the powder magavi south of the city limits, causing the deatn of four bogs, shows the danger of storing explosives too close to the city. There ara five or six sther powder homses in the samo vicinity, not more than eight hun- dred yards from each vther, and the won- der is that they were not all exploded by the terrible conoussion caused by the blowing up of the first one. Such an ac- cident occurred at Salt Lake City some three or four yoars ago. Two boys shot at the door of a powder house, which in- stantly blew up, killing the boys, and causing the explosion of two other maga- zines more than half a milo apart. The powder houses of Omaha, as they are now located, are too near the city, and the authorities should take immediate steps to cause their removal to more dis- tant locations. ment to the McCrary vacancy that the price of night-shirts has gone up twenty- five per cent. General Manderson's suc- ceasor would hold the senatorship until the middle of next January, which is nine months longer than the term of Tabor, the thirty-day senator of Colo- rado, He could afford to wear $250 night shirts. Nineteen newspaper outfits are en route for the Coour d’Alene mining dis- trict in Idaho. This is the settlement where immensely rich deposits are said to have been discovered, and thousands of miners are said to be on their way thither, After the incorporation of a mining camp into a town, a newspaper is the first thing the miners decide upon having, and the first editor who arrives with an outfit gets the bonus and the business, It will be interesting to learn which of the nineteen who have started for Cour d'Alene will secure the prize, SE————— Duzixa the congressional session of 1881-82 a bill, introduced Ly Senator Saundors, was passed for the straighten- ing of the northern boundary of Nebraska by aunexing about 200,000 acres of land from the territory of Dakota. This land lies west of Niobrars, adjoining Knox county. It has not yet been thrown open to settlement, although there is a great demand for it on the part of set- tlors. Immediate steps should be taken by our congressional delezates to have this land opened up so that settlers could secure homesteads tnere early in the spring, ——— Somx men become famous by ‘‘happy hits.” Congressman Horr became famous by asserting in one of his speeches that “‘the soutn had better raise more hogs and less hell.” He is now regarded as ~ one of the wittiest speakers in congress, Congressman Hatoh, the other day, made & somewhat similar hit when he said that what the democratic party wanted was & few funerals, His speech in which this sentiment was the text has made him fa- mous, It was not only witty but truth. ful and sensible. Bunset Cox can no longer be regarded as the only wit in con- gress, Such men as Horr and Hatch have made him take a back seat, SE— Tax house committee on public lands is evidently determined to be impartial and thorough in its action regarding the forfeiture of unearned railroad lands. - Although vigorous and influential efforts of the road not completed July 4th, 1879, It is estimated this forfeiture, if the bill passes, Pacific will lose about Persons who have pur- this land from the railroad treated the same as if of the governmont. In this connection the fact should not be overlooked that there are within the the west where barbed-wire is used for fencing purposea. MORE STRINGENT LAWS, Manison, Neb,, February 26, 1884, — I noticed the following article in a late Br The Woman's Christian Temperance Union, the Geod Templ.rs, and all uther temperance peopls are coustantly g our pec against the demon of al d the terrible vicen s d crimes that spring from intemper- ance, but thoy never tako the first practical stop in the direction which would abate the worstovils of intemperance. They want the children in the schools taught about the terri- ble effacts of alcoholic stimulants upon the human system. They want niore stringent Iawa to provent the sale and manufacture of ligqnor, but when they are told that under the present 1 y man and woman may pre yent the liconsing of low dens and notorivusly disorderly houses by a simple protest, they shrug their shoulders and shirk the responsi- bility. We admit most of the above, but when you say that “‘every man or woman may prevent toe licensing of low dens and no- toriously disordetly houses by a simple protest,” we do not admit it and know city several institutions that are in reality storehouses for explosives and combusti- bles of the most dangerous character. One of these is the warehouse of the Consolidated Tank Line company, in which is stored an immense quantity ot gasoline and oils, which, in case of ex- plosion and fire, at the time of a high wind or gale from the east or south, would be liable to destroy fully one-third of the business part of the city. Another dangerous institution, located in the heart of the city, is the gas works. Under the new process of making water-gas these works are liable some day to blow up and causo great de- struction of life and property. Water- gas is highly explosive, and too much precaution cannot be exercised in regard to it, although, owing to good fortune, such an accident as the blowing up of the gas works may never happen. It cannot be denied that the gas works are located too near the business center of the city, and steps should be taken look- ing towards their removal to a more re- mote and isolated locality. The storage and manufacture of explosives within the city is a matter which should at once be carefully investigated by the authori- ties, and while they are doing this it would be proper for them to consider the subject of steam boilers. It is estimated that there are two hundred steam boil- ors in use in Omaha, some of them being used for steam heating purposes, but the maijority for power. It is high time that a thorough system of boiler inspection should be established in Omaha, and a competent inspector appointed, Such an inspector should be an expert engi- neer. His compensation could be p vided for by requiring the owners of boilers to pay a fee, say of 85, for each inspection and permit, the inspection to be made twice a year, or oftener if deem- od necossury. In this way the fees would amcunt to about $2,000 a year, which ought to secure the services of a competent and honest inspector. Roscor CoNKIING, in reply to # New Jersey editor who attempted to draw him out on the political situation, related an incident of Zeno. When the Persian embassy was about to take leave of ths Grecian court, thoy asked and received some message from each of the person- ages present. When the turn of Zeno came he said: *“Toll your master that you saw a gray-haired old man in Athens who knew enough to hold his tongue.” Mr. Conkling said to the New Jersey editor that his admiration for Zeno and his teachings compelled him to keep si- lence regarding his action in the politics of tho future. It seems, however, that Mr, Conkling has since been betrayed into an interview, which he is now stren- uously denying. In that interview he is reported to havesaid that the republicans were doomed to defeat, and that although a democrat might not be elected, yet the democratic party would be the determining factor in the result. That Mr. Conkling forgot that little story about Zeno, is quite evident from the fact that he forgot to hold his tongue. The interview occurred at the dinner ta- ble of the New York club, and the in- terviewor was a St. Louis clergyman named Snyder. Mr, Conkling admits that there was an extended conversation between himself and Snyder, but that it was of a private social character, and that furthermore it was not truly re. ported. Snyder now says that it is sim- ply a question of veracity between Conk- ling and himself, and tbat he is satisfled that his report was correct. The inc- dent illustrates more strongly than ever that silence is golden, and that old Zeno's head was level. M. Conkling now prob. ably wishes that ho had held his tongue like Zeno, ' —— Tur lowa farmers have for years been bravely and persistently fighting the barbed-wire fence monopoly, and at Iast, ufter most expensive logislation, have won a substantial victory. Judge McCrary has just entered a final decree, at Keokuk, Iowa, in the barbed-wire oases brought by Washburn & Moen for alloged infringement of their patents. He decided that the reissues of the Kelly and Glidden patents on which the Mas. sachusetts monopolists have based their olaims were invalid, basing his opinion on the fact that the specifications were unduly expanded in granting the reissue, which was not even applied for until after an unreasonably long time, The osse will probably go to the supreme oourt of the United States. The Towa farmers thus encouragedjwill, however, continue to fight the monopoly, and will probably ba successful in the last court of appeal. The barbed-wire monopoly has been an outrageous imposition, its final defeat will be hailed with and | oy | juries that it is not mso here. The temperance workers did not “‘shrug their shoulders and shirk the responsibility of getting up a protest, but got one with over a hundred signers. The saloons took arcund their petitions and got the required number of names by law, and then filed said petitions. But when the protest was brought agsinst thene petitions for being fraudulent, and praying that they would not grant a license to the saloons because Lhe{ had violated the license laws bp selling liquor to drunkards, for selling liquor three days after their licenses ex: d, thus selling that time without any license, also because some of the persons whosenames were on their petitions lived outside of Madison and others were not freehold- ers—did that get us rid of the saloons? No. The tow» board returned those pe titions, arter they had been filed, to the saloon keepers, and had more uames added, when they were accepted. 1t was proved by witnesses under oath that liquor had been s0ld to a drunkard, and that the saloons had sold without a license. The saloons have also obtained their licenses for $260. and the law says that they must pay $500. They are now sell- ing liquor for $260 licenses. Yet with all this the town board granted liconses to the saloons tow shall we prevent it? Must wo keep trom telling our children that the liquor that “‘biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder” will hurt them? Must we #eo our fellow men almost in the jaws of death and not tell them that they are in danger? Must we see our friends mur- dered and yet keep our mouths shut and lay our pens down, not letting any one know that this serpent is one of the worat ‘cases of mankind? Must we do all this, and only get up a protest, which can be disregarded by and dishonest board? No, we say, temperance fan- atics(?) don’t work in that way. We will not stop showing the evils of intemper- ance until prohibition erowns our efforts. But till then we will be ‘“‘constantly ex horting our people agamst the demon of aleohol and the terrible vices and crimes that spring from intemperance.” Until then “‘they want the children in the schools taught about the terrible effects of alcoholic stimulants upon the human systom, They want more stringent laws to prevent the sale and manufacture of liquor,” and then, when this enemy has been overcome by mankind's friend, pro- hibition, we will be satisfied. W. A. BrARELEY, Taking it for granted that the facts set forth by Mr. Blakely are as stated, we are amazed at the utter helplessness which he and the friends of temperance roform exhibit in dealing with this ques- tion, Our laws expressly command that the county and town board shall not grant license to any applicant who is proven to have violated any of the pro visions of the license law within twelve months preceding his application, and they fcannot legally issue a license for less than 8500, It is not necessary that one hundred versons should remonstrate, Oneman or one woman may prevent the issuing of a license upon furnishing proof before the board that the applicant has violated the laws by selling without license, selling to habitual drunkards, or miners, or keeping a disorderly house. Section 25 of the Slocumb law provides “‘that in granting licenses or permits such corporate authorities shall comply with and be governed by all the provisious of this act in the granting of licenses.” But suppose that the board, as in the case at Madison, does grant license in spite of the remonstrance, backed by proof, that establishes the fact that the applicant has violated the law in many particulars, does the refusal of the board to comply with the law bar all redress? Does not the law give the aggrieved parties the privilege to appeal, set aside and nullify the action of the town board ? Section 4 of the Slocumb law provides that *‘any party interested shall have process to compel the attendanse of witnesses, hose testimony shall be reduced to writ- ing, and filedin the uffice of application and if any person feels himself aggrieved by the decision in said case he may appsal therefrom to the distriot court, and said testimony shall be transmitted to said district court, and such appeal shall be decided by the judge of sush court upon said evidence alone.” Now there is not a shadow of doubt that if this course had been pursued by the parties who made remonstrance at Madison the | t| ocourt would have annulled this action of the town board and revoked the license, There is & plain remedy, which could have been applied successfully providing the parties that are agitating temperance reform werojdisposed to take(the practical course plainly pointed out by law, But in the face of their confessed helplessness to enforce the laws which we now have, they clamor for more strin. gent laws. How are they going to eaforce them if they cannot enforce the present laws! Sup pose that prohibition was decreed and the peualty for selling & drink of whisky was five years at hard labor in the peni. tentiary, could any man guilty of selling liquor without license be indicted by a Madison county grand jury or convicted by one of their petit juries, when their can hardly be brought all over the great agricultural state of {to the point of indicting a party for Towa, as well as in every osher pmol‘ullinl without license where the penalty is only a light fine and confine- ment in the county jaill Does not the state of facts related by Mr. Blakely show conclusively that the community in which he lives is not educated up to the standard of morality that would give countenance to prohibition and more atringent laws than we now have! Does not common sense dictate to all who de- sire to eradicate the worst evils of intem- perance that they should confine their efforts to the enforcement of existing laws. Tie explosion of that powder maga. zine, just south of the city limits, shows the danger of the storing of explosives in or near the city. Although the powder houses are outside of the city limits, they are still too near the city and ought to be moved to a more remote and ivola- ted location, Surrender to the Railroads, Chicago Tribune. *‘We have met the pool railroad and we are theirs,” is the report which the commerce committee should make to the house of represensatives when it pre- sents the emasculated Reagan bill for consideration, All that the railroads have permitted the committee to recommend is a com- mission inatead of regulation, and talk instead -f action, The remedy for the almost universal mismanagemont of their powers by thke railroads is, that three gentleman shall be appointed to consider the question of pool and publish essays on this subject at the end of the year. As a summary method to check the most glaring evils pending the publication of the essays which are expected to shake the guilty railroad-pooling world to its centre it 18 provided that the three essay- writing gentlemen may pause long enough from their literary labor: to listen to complaints, and, if satisfied that a rail- road is violating the law, may tell the oftending corporation to stop it, and if it refuses to stop it they are to give it sixty days to continue its offenses, and at the end of tho sixty days the parties may all go into the United States courts—and stay there until they find the way out. A more lame and impotent conclusion than this of the hop. s of reform and relief from wtolerable railroad abuses have not often reached even congress. Is is but a mockery to tell people who are wronged by the liuge railroad corporations to go into the federal courts, when the bill sorupulously omits, in its emasculated shape, all special provision for enabling them to cope there on even terms with these monopoly antagonists. Victims of the railroads can go into court now if they have a strong taste for running tilts against wind-mills, The commerce committe have com- pletely abandoned the whole case of the people by recommending that the roads be permitted to discriminate between shippers unless their shipments are made ‘‘under similar circumstances,” This loaves the roads free to continue their work of using their control of the high ways to crush out the competitors of the Standard Oil company, the great coal companies, the leading merchant and manufacturer in each place they reach. Che small refiners, coal operators, trades men. snd manufacturers cannot possibly ship ‘‘under similar circumstances” with their formidablo rivals. They must ship less, for the railroads, by their previous use of the highways have made them in- capable of shipping as much as their fa- vored competitors. This bill says to the railroads: Having made these men poor, you may, becauee they are poor go on tu make them still poorer. The railroad commission which the bill provides for is a good enough thing. The Tribune has always been in favor of railread commissions, and welcomes this one. Butat this late day, when we see on every hand the ominous results of railroad discrimination ossitying inte the hardened structure of vested wrongs all over the country, to offer us a commis- sion of alawyer. a railroad man, and a politician without power, as the. only help the people are to have from their own repreentatives, is a mockery and an outrage. 1t did not need Prof. Bryce, the emi- nent thinker and member of parliament, to come frem England to tell us that the two greatest dangers threatening this country are the growth of abnormal for- tunes and the excessive power of great corporations, Every one who looks care. fully at the drift of the social develop- ment of the United States sees in these the parasitic fungi that will surely over- come the common weal if not cut out by a sharp surgery The great corporations that threaten us are the railroad corpora- tions and those they have bred; the great fortunes are almost without exception railroad fortunes. The power which these corporations have used to create aburses they are showing to.day at Wash- ington in forcing congrers to declare them lawful, and they will show it again in dictating the choice of the commis- rs who are to investigate charges against them, The redistribution of the wealth and business of the country by their favoris going on to-day as ever, and the people’s congress is asked by the commerce committee to continue this prerog:tive in set terms permicting them to discriminate. There are lawyers enovgh in the com- merce committee,if there were any patriots there, to pass a bill compelling roads to give at least thirty uays' notice before increasing rates; to make all their tariffs public, forbidding any discrimina- tion between largo and small shippers, excopt that which accurately answered to the actual difforence in expense, if any, betwoen handling large and sma amounts; prohibiting all unjust discrimi- nations on any pretext; providing penal- ties for improper discriminations and drawbacks; and giving an ample mitative to the law officers of the government to proceed in behalf of the people to secure he punishment of the offenders. The ty of the practices of the railroads in making the rich and then making them richer, and punishing the poor by making them poorer is 'ufi established, The difliculty "is, that individuals cannot cope with huge corporations in the fed- eral courts, where their rights alone can be enforced, What is wanted is, that the national government shall appear in the federal courts on the side «f the peo- ple, as it does in the case of the ) roseou- tion of other criminals against its laws. e RS A Historical Clock. Arbisonls (Pa ) Despateh, thDr. Edward Swivel, of Huntington, s © Douessor of an antique piece of mechanism which has a remarkable his- tory.

A fow weeks aftor the cargo of the vessel e g ool by vl | At this time the Indians had become very troublesome in the _ Cumberland Valley, where the Swivels had settled, and the people of that region were kept in constant dread of an im- pending invasion, Finally an attack was made on the settlers, many of whom were killed, a number taken into cap- tivity and their village destroyed. Among the number taken captive were the Swivels, who were treated barbar- ously by their dusky captors, but were finally liberated after months of priva- tion and suffering. From the date of this occurrence nothing was heard of the old clock until about two years afterward, @ rail- | O g 11 | ing to the railroad company. when a party of Indians, who wero trad- ing in the Juniata Valley, where the Swivel family had subsequently moved, exchanged the old timepiece for ammuni- tion to the very family from which it had been stolen during the Indian raids in the Cumberland Valley. The old clock has descended from one generation to another, until it now does excellent duty for one of its owner's descendants in Huntingdon. e — STATE JOITINGS.
