The question naturslly arlses why should the Union Pacific have a monopoly of the coal mines of Wyoming? It certainly had no right, In the first and subsldized it. It Is notorlous, In the next place, that the coal mines were owned snd operated by other partles, and that the Unlon Paoclfic ejected them with force and violence and took orses- slon of thelr #m;purly y frand, Oompetition in ‘mining was entirely crushed out by a {yrranioal system of dis- orimination against all mining cperators who would not yleld up their property to the Unlon Pactfic. Mining property, otherwlse valuablo, was thus made ut- terly worthless, This selfish and merce- the company had no sandstone to force opon unwilling tax-payers for paving ma- terial, and was not otherwise In confllct with the interests of tax-psyers from time to time, Mr. Leary would do as well The | that the Unlon Pacific monopollzes the |4y any other ordinary msn, We do not belleve that Mr, Leary fa any more capa- ble of resisling the pressura from his employers than was Charley Woodworth and n dozen other men who held laora: tlve positions with the raflroad while 122 | place, to go Into the mining business be- | they woro In the conncll, the board of 10 | enase 1t Is entirely forelgn to the purpose | education, or In the leglslatara, 1 Bditortal | fOF Which the government chartered it |Mr, Leary, who Ia foreman of the loco: Why motive woodwork department In the rallway shops, should be pushed so vig- orously In preference to other working- men, has not been explasined by his backers.

THE democratic press is calling the at- company s carrying on the coal trade under false clalms, to the detriment of the people and to tho loss cf its own stockholdere. The bleody rcenes that have been en- aoted In Wyoming during the past week are not by any means the first that have occurred there. When the miners and country years ago there was riot and bloodshed. The slaughter of the Chlnese will not be the last of rlot and blood- shed, if the pig-headed policy of groed and pillege, begun by a former manage- ment, is continued and persisted in.

The bloody eplsode attracts the attentlon of the clvllzed world, and that such a whole- sale alavghter should have occurred in this free and enlightened country creates general surprise and provokes eevere comment, It will be taken as an indlca- tion of the ‘‘civillzation of the wild west.,” Butit should be remembered that the white miners are, as we are told, mostly forelgners, and principslly Welsh- men who have not been na‘uralized.

The Ohlnese are not re- sponsible for their belng allve, nor are they responsible for belng employed in the Unlon Pacific coal mines, The re. sponsiblity for thelr employment rests with the railroad company and its con- tractors or contracting agents. AxorHER mutual assoclatlon has jolned 1s not what it ought to be owlog to rall- road dlscriminations and the lively com- petliion with St. Joe and Kansas City. The condition of our trade to the north is In about tho same condltion, owing to rallroad dlsoriminations in favor of Ohl- oago. If we had a direct road of our own to the north and northwest we could solve the problem in those sectlons of the state, and could probably afford to geln and bear the annoyances in the southorn sectlon, Eeme———— “CoN" Lx¥ARY’S nomination for the board of public works}will bo confirmed.

To His Grace, Most Reverend Dr, Lynch, Archbichop of Torento, THE COUNTY CONVEKTION, The convention of Lancaster county has come snd gone. Thero are many rejoicing politicians, but there is a far greater number who are at home nursiog and trying to heal the wounds received at tho lats battlo. Somse are on their political Ceath beds, and the head- stones on their graves, where the greon grass and sun flowers of this prolific county wave above the mounds, will be: *‘Here lies —, good man and true, who died of too much machine.” The riog was routed, and Gere, Hathaway & Co. atood upon the outside’sand looked on and listened to elcquence from other lips than their own. Where once they strutted with bigh impressions of their own greatness, others stood. The political editor of the Bk looked over the sea of humsnity but he locked in vain for the classic profiles of R. O, Phillips and “Oaffyn” Boggs, They were absent, but not of their own volition; the voters demanded it, and although Mesers, Phillips and Boggs did not gracefully submit, they finally understood that they had been sat upon, Tho riog got nothing, unless O. C. Bell, the nomince for county olerk, can be called ore of them, and is 13 not quite £o, for the gentleman denies that e is with the gang. The Mitchell dele- Ration to the judicial convention will be over- como by those from Otos and Cass counties, 8o if Mr. Mitchell gets in it will be by the ekin of his teeth, Those posted say positively that he cannot make it, for the reazon that he will be unable to draw a single vote outside of this county. The nomination of Roche for tressurer gives eatisfaction ton great majorily of the party, and if he keeps a8 clear from railrond influences as heis now he will be a valuable official and add to thestrength be already has, He certainly will poll a large vote axd aid the balanca of the ticket. The nom{nation of Alva Brown over Dick Carley, for county commisvioner was a victory for anti-machine men. The fight over this office was one of the hardest of the convention and the result waa a rout for the Field crowd, which is the railroad erowd. Altogether the convention was nearly free from ring iuflucnces and proved a damper on that institution which will dim its lurtre for some time to come, THE LATE BILAS A, STRICKLAND, In a show window on O street for several days past a large portrait of the late Silas A, Strickland has been on exhibition, The idea of having the pictare made originated with tho members of the Fiftieth Ohio regiment who now reside in Nebraska. The genoral was commander of that regiment, Tt will be presented this week, at the G. A, R, reunion, to Mrs, Strickland, widow of the general J. B. Livisey, of company K of the regiment, and who lives at Steele City, is chairman of the committes having the making of the portrait in charge, A delegation from Silas A. Strickland post No. 13, of Hastings, will g0 to Gmaha to-morrow to escort Mrs, Strick- jand to Beatrige, where the prosentation will be made, *The portrait is an excellent one of the general, and doubtless will lovg ba pre- served by his family as a cherished memento of the esteem in which he was held by his companions in arms. DEFEATED THE PROPOSITION. On Saturday the proposition to sell the the evgine-house property on Eleventh street was submitted to the voters of the city, and was badly beaten, The Bk was the only paper to expose the probable fraud which would bave boen perpetrated had the sale been made, It has been clearly understood thata certain real estate dealer and another man stood ready to gobble up the property at a0 per cent valuation; but, as seen, um{ failed to make it. The engine house will probably be used for fire purposes after the city jail and offices are moved to the new house on Market ¢quare, LOCAL JOTTINGS, Saturday night the city hall was partially filled o witness arcing exhibition engaged in by O.

On account of the bettar rates offered by the Fremont, 1 Mlssouri Valley rail- road farmers ship their cattlo over that road to Sioux City and east to Chicago, Mer- chanta buy goods at some point on that road, or if at wholesale ofton direct |from Sioux City thus depriving Omal of the tiade which belongs to it on account of location and which, as & city of our own ntate, it should have, This, I understand, is but a repetition of affaira throughout north- western Nebraska, Wheeler county, of ail othera in the state, is parhaps the groatest on grass and catude. A railroad from Omaha throughout the county northwest para- lell with the Frewont, Elkhora & Missouri Valloy, intersecting that line at some point weat, would eccure to Omaha this and future trade, as also that of westera Dakota and the Black Hil's, Cummingville and Wheeler county, although separated from the railroad by a fifty mile drive, s taking quite rapid strides in tho way of improvements and prosperity, and to- day will rank with any Bkt county for population and wealth, Cumminsville, located in the centre of the county, is the proposed county teat, and with the many advantages ever other places which it ombraces there aro no doubts as to the de- cision of the people at thepolls this fall, Parties from Towa havo buught a large tract of land surrounding the town end a great deal of city property, and are at work hauling lum. ber and putting up business housos and. resi- dences.
