The attention of the Omahaj Republican is called to the fact that a civil rghts bill has just been passed by the Tllinois legielature Droviding stringent penalties for discriminat- ing against colored people by hotel and restau rant keepers and theatre managers, If such a law were in force in this state Boyd would not dared to have excluded that colored preaches from his opera house and the Re- publican would hardly dared to have defend- ed him.—[Fremont Tribune, The Tribune evidently labors under the impression that there s no clell rights law In Nebraska. In this it is mistaken as such a law was passed by the lats legislature, andIs now in force. Itis by virtue of that law that the Rev. Mr. Woodby, who was excluded from Boyd's opera house, has brought sult against the propeletor, Tre St. Louls Globe-Democral feels considerably elated over a clrculation of 50,000, It {s not such a clreulation, however, as such a splendid newspaper deserves. It ought to have 100,000, The fact Is that the Globe-Democrat is far ahead of the city or state in which it s published. Most of the rock-rooted bourbons of poor old Missourl don't kuow & good newspaper when they see it. The Globe-Democrat, however, may after all have reason to congratulate itself that as a staunch republican journal it has reached even a clrculation of 50,000 in such a moss-back state as Missourl, — A pisearcr from Springfield, Ohlo, 8 that the delegates to the state re- publican convention from elghty-elght lga counties were all full. This does not imply that they were all intoxlcated, for according to Prof. Sullivan, of Boston, there is a wide dlstinction bstween belng full and being drunk. It is safe to esy, however, that the delegates are sober enough to nominate a man for governor who will be elected by a handsome ma- jority. AxoNG the Towa editors who called on President Cloveland the other day, was Mr. Hubbard, who had been Mr. Cleve- land's school teacher., The president re. cogpized him at once and greeted him mcst cordially, and invited him to make an [nformal call at the white house.

On September 11, 1882, bids were received by the board of public works for the paying of Tenth street, the property owners along id street having signified by petition their eference for granite as a paving material, hese bids were considered by the board and rejected because they were too high. On October 13, 1882, the _board again received bids tor the paving of Tenth street, and not- withstanding the plain preference of the property owners for granite & bid was presented for Colorado sandstone, At this time it ~was notorious that the Union Pacific railwsy company had control of two members of this board—one, an employe who, althsugh naturally an upright man was afraid to run counter to the wi:hes of his employers lest ha be discharged from a ®ood position; the other a beneficiary of that corporation who volunteered to do whatever dirty work was required of him and even to suggost such further work of this nature as may have escapad the attention oi his mas ters. When thie sand stone epooic appeared upon the acone all_honesty of purpose and thoughts of the public weal were thrown to the dogs and for thirty days the Union Pa cific through its cappers, hirelings and n paper organ attempted by corrupt conspira and almost open bribery to thwart the ex- pressed will of the people and to force upon the city o rotten and worthless paving mater- ial that would be rejected on sight by any body of yuhlir officials who heed the public good higher than private gain, Since that time I have steadily set my faca against sand stone as & paving material, althouch by means thoroughly dishonest a fow districts have been secured to sand stone. I have been con- tinually hounded by the Union Paclfic and its paid cappers and beneficieries, and now when the time has come for the appointment of my successor this same corporation fearing that T may be re-appointed because of Mayor Boyd’s public declaration to that effect, in- struct the editor of this paid organ to assail me personally and to insist that some of my public and official acts have been performed under corrupt influences. The editor in question instantly obeys the mandate of bis masters and hastens to his work of defamation. He conjures up men of straw and knocks them down promptly with a great flourish of trumpets after each round. He hints darkly at maladministration and im- oper influences, but presents no proofs. 'he only chord upon which he dwells in ab- solute melody is the failure to put the stone in along street car tracks, After my three year’s servicea this is all that can be found de- fective in the performance of my contract, He overlooked another plain violation of specifications and contract stipulations, We have allowed the dmaha Horre Railway Company to put in granite between its tracks on asphalt streets, when the city charter at the time plainly sail that “street railway companies should pave botween their tracks at the same time and with the same material” that the of the street is paved with, Will yo take a note of this? So far as the e to put stono outside the tracks 18 con- corned, when Mr, Barker and myself ap- proved of the acceptance of the intersection of Thirteenth and Douglas streets, without the stone accompaniment, I believed that it was better than if stone had been used, and 1 etill so believe. I may be mistaken, but T consider my opinion in this regard, at least, asgood a8 thatof Mr, Nye, On Sixteenth street the Asphalt company sent a communi- cation to the board proposing to remedy de- fects along the street car track, (which had sunk) and where it is alleged that stone should have been laid, The board considered the proposition and recommended to the city council that such proposition be accepted, and this rocommendstion was made August9, 1881, Mr, Woodman and myself voting aye, and Mr. Wilson being absent, The city council -Epmved of the plan_and ordered the board to have the same carried out. I have always been ready to insist upon the perform ance of that portion of the Asphalt company's contract that requires the laying of stone along street railway tracks, aniif the council will direct 1t to be done now I will see thatit s done. The editor of the Republican calls_loudly upon Mr. Boyd not to reappoint me. For the benefit of Mr. Nye, and without violating any confidence, T give below a letter recently received by me from Mr. Boyd, v June 4th, —Hon. James Creighton— DEar Sir: From long personal acquaintance, and recognizing your integrity, capab peculiar fitnees to fill the position, I, as mayor of Omaha, in Julay, 1882, appointed you chatr— man of the board of public works, Everything at tkat time was in a state of formation; our streets were in an almost im- pasgible condivion, There was not a foot of paving in our city, and it was of tho greatest necessity in order to avoid expensive mistakes that men of superior judgment should have charge of our public improvements, The ro- sult shows the wisdom of my choice, That we began right, and to you more than any other man are our citizens indebted for the satis- factory manner in which our public works has been carried on, And now, sir, after three years trial my confidenca in’ your up rightness and ability being still unshaken, T ask you to accept again the same position,snc hope that you will favor me with a written acceptance at your earliest convenience, Yours very truly, JavEs 1, Boyn, Mayor of Omaha, Forthe further benefit of Mr. Nye I will add that on the 6th instant I replied to Mayor Boyd declining reapgointment for _reasons which I gave to him in_my letter, If after the exhausted review of my official career by | fi the Republican, Mayor Boyd regrets any of the expressions contained in the above he has but to rpeak the word and I will return the original to him, ~And thereafter I shall de- iy either pretended friends or open enemies, f I have made mistakes I am willing that the mayor and city council shall make & bill against me covering the same, and T will pay the bill, and if 1 am unablo to do so, my bondsmen, P. E. Tlerand John A, Creighton, are good for the amount, S0 far o8 my “son-in-law Gallagher” s con cerned, he will take care of himself in his own way and at the proper time, I presame, JayEs OREIGHTON, Chairman Board of Public Worke, e —— The Indus Depre Kansas Olty Journal, The complaint 1s general that thera Is a deprestion In business, all over the country, and In no department of busi- ness or Industry is it felt as much as in manufacturing. The depression in labor, especially In manufacturers, arouses ser- fous reflectlon. Tke colllslon about wages In the iron trade has attained to proportions which must cause much suf- fering unless an early settlement Is reached. The difficulty calls for wise conslderation, for kindly re, for each other on the part of both sldes, and for a disposltion to reach that result which shal be the best for the community asa whole, Is there no way out of such colllslons, colllsions between labor and capltal! Cannot a remedy be devised for the striker, which take bread out of the mouths of thousands and for thedisagree- ments out of which they arise! He who can devlse such a remedy will deserve to be crowned a benefactor of his race. 1f a new industry could be created, if production could be enlarged yet unueed, if a demand for it counld be aroused in fresh ports, the relief to society would be decided and healthy, Is there an inven- tor shrewd enough to add thls to our in- jon, < |in production, T dusirles and productlon, and to the relief | spectively collocter nv customs and inter- of 1abor and to the advantage of unem- ployed capitall What eays the boastfal and much vaunted Inventive genius of Amorlea’ Such additlons have been made In the past, not with cold design for this par- pose, but In that Inspiration which has developed all varicties of mechanlsm and multiplled haman comtorts, Why not something new?

Obanges in fashions bring novel branches of Industry into prominence, For Instance, the cheapening of the cost of making stockings long years ago, so far augmented the demand, that instead of the country villages at the fireside, they are now made by machinery In great boildings, where thousands of women and glrls are employed, instead of the grand: mother and maiden, se formerly, at odd intervals, when household dutles could be put aside for the time. The comforts which have grown to be necesaltles in all our homes, which were unknown to our ancestors, have afforded In their product {on, remunerative employment to thous- ands who else would have been without means of making a ltving, This creative power, or pr.coss has not been exhaus'ed. As population Increas- en, some sphere must be found for labor, eome new field must be found for indus- try. Enforced Idlences harms the indl- vidual and menaces the community, The Interruption of extensive manu- actures has become 8o frequent, that the wisest brains connot better be employed, or do better service than to reck some plan of adjustment and same method of prevention, There are some who recommend for- elgn wars as a relief for such {roubles, and much of this sort of talk or states- manship was indulged In when war seemed something more than probable, between Eogland and Russla. But surely peace can provide eome employ- ment by which, while hands are kept at work and mouths are fed, society shall be amellorated and elevated. The man who makcs, invents or pres- ents & new industry, will be a public benefactor. Idle labor demands it, and uninvested capital demands it. e ——— NASBY.
