Tne Chicago & Northwestern has de cided not to invade the South Platte country. It will be interesting now to note whether the Burlington will deeline in turn to tap the territory of the North- western. THE anti-Chinese war in Washington territory continues with unabated vigor all along the line, That the Chinese must go is becoming pretty evident. They have all been driven out of Tacoma in a hody. AcCcorDING tothe city ph, port, there were twenty-six deaths and ninety births in Omaha during the month of October. This shows o very healthy inerease in our population. Let the good work go on. out in an interview eriti- cising General Grant's article on Chatta- Criticism would be wasted on ans whose bitterness and malig- y assisted materially in making still more wretched the closing days of puin ot the dying general.

Instead of mdulging in profunity he ought to have thanked the judge for not genteneing him for life. Tue grade of Leavenworth strect Aeems to be a great bone of contention, Every two or three weeks the council passes a new ordinance to establish the grade of the street which is promptly vetoed by the mayor, ounly to be followed y another ovdinance. The last one wil) Drobably he vetoed next week. ATOR MANDERSON is no sentimenta- Jist in his views of the proper method for eivilizing the Indinns. He believes that the presence of important military posts near the agencies is the best eguard for settlers. Nebraskn will insist that her two northern posts of Niobrara and Robinson, which guard the great Sioux reserve from the south, shall be main- tained and enlarged. Tue liveliest chattel mortgage husiness on record has been done by a Minnesota man who recently decamped from Trav- erse county, in that state, owing about $6,000. The county clerk’s records show sixty-four chattel mortgages on the saume property. He sold his wheat, which wus also profusely plastered with mortgages, at a side station, pocketed the proceeds and skipped. Fr is needless at this time to discuss the propesition to donate Jeflerson square for a railroad depot. Some of the ablest lawyers in the eity hold that the eity can- not legally donate or sell the square for @opot purposes. We vegard it as injudi- eions on the part of the projectors of the Northern rond to press this matter at this time because it might engender a il to any city and county, WHEN it comes to @ matter of publie improvements the people of Omaha gen- erally know what they want. For in- stance, there were 3,010 votes cast for the eity bull proposition, and only 230 aguinst i, the latter including what is known as the moss-buck und obstructionist ¢! ment, which, we are glad to see, is year by year growing smaller. What 1s true of the eity ball proposition is equally true of the puving bonds, which were carried by a vote of 3,116 uguinst subsidy from th souri Pacitic wishes to extend its main line to Yaukton it ought to be able to do so without assistance from Omaba. Our people will not be willing to vote aid for railroad, local or other- wise, which, while presumably hesding towirds the northwest, is to hug the wiver and push into Dakota as the exten- sion of a trunk line. What we do need 8 a direct line up the Elkhomn Valley, Guarnntees of 4 hundred wiles of such svoud which will tp the countios of . ®uming, Madison, Stanton and othe Beyond will be wirmly welcomed and Eberally rewarded no matter who the Pastics are who agree to build it, T the M tr THE OMAHA DAILY BEL T —— e Caring for the Dear Poople. Phomas L Kimball has ta e Chicago N present and in railrond, of w e mana Rimball it « pre tha Pacific rails the uy renew hnt poj sion mot will b managorsoft e not worry As nsual Me with being o v Kiwaball, who is tryingto forestall what irally have reason to or politician the munegers expect duri Wh s i ¥ the e imply What th rely nex ion of ealls popular opinion an apprehension on his own part he is pleased to eadl a rencewal of war on the Union Pacific is in fact the persi<tent opposition to the sch. to legalize the frandulent debt and i the hogus stock ereated by the Credit Mo bilier and Jay Gould, My, Kimball kindly informs us that the people have a vitalin terest in having these onslaughts on the company stopped. The people, l havegot their money invested in the enter prise, and its managers should be given halt achanceto realize on the investment without being continually pestered by tators whose chief ambition is to get a little notoriety. What or Mr. Kimball vefer to? 13 it an onslaug on the Pacific railroads to them to pay taxes on the lands w congress ngl wghts doos for their benefity Would not wporation willlngly ps lions of acres held by the Pacifie ds it they ¢ made a free gift? Are the congressmen who oppose the re any mun taxes on the pend of the Thurman act enemies of the | roadt Have the managers of the Pacific roads heard no complaint from others tors, who want cheap noto- ave not the people west of the ssouri been for years and years groan ing under the extortionate tolly exacted from them by trafic managers of the Pacific railroads? Havenot the agitators thereby voiced the universul sentiment of the people with regard to the abuses which congress has sought to ubate? Who are the people that ha their money invested in this enterprise, in whose behalf My, Kimball pleads so pit couslyt For the most part they are stock jobbers, speculators and money sharks. ‘The poor widows and orph who own stock in the Union Pacitic not very nuinerous, and they should hold the scoundrels who induced them to invest their money in - Union Pacific stocks re sponsiblo. There were widows and or- phans who invested in Wabash, but con- wus not even asked to come to their relief. And how about the widows and orphans who owned Kansas Pacific stocks up to the time Jay Gould merged that worthless and bankrupt road into Union Pacifie, and seooped up about ten millions in the deal? Perhaps the dear prople are in honor and duty bound to contribute towards vaying dividends on that stock and interest on the fraudulent debts with which that road has been loaded. Mr. Kimball strikes the key- note of his interview as follows that the schemes of the encmics of the road should be successful, have you any idea what the result would be? The first effect would be to drive the road into bankruptey and that would be quite as disastrous to the government as to the company. Why? Simply because the government i lien creditor and it would prac out in the cold. The first-wortgage bond nearly all held by foreigners, and if the com- pany should be driven to the wall they would step In and take possession. Now, if there is cither business shrewdness or statesmansiip embraced in a line of poliey that, followed to its inevitable conclusion, would take property which we now hold in this country out of our hands and give it to strangers, 1 confess that Lam unable to see it What is necessury in this matter is to let the manager. 10wl they are honestly and successfully carning for the interests of the road. What are the schemes of the so-called enemies of the rond? Are not theschem- ers in fhis case the managers of the Union Pacifie, who are secking to push a bill through congress which would legal- ize their fraudulent debt, extend the time { payment for sixty years, aund compel and the next generation to contri bute enough in tolls to pay nearly 1 hun- dred millions of the principal of this debt, with the interest thereon, and have cnough margin for the managers to pay dividends on more than lifty miliions of watered stock, This is a fine project in- deed! What would the people profit by the recovery of a portion of this gigantic debt when they themselves would have to pay every dollar of it, principal and interest? Wherein would the people, and especially the patrons of the road be the gainers by any interference on the purt of congress to stay the inov sule of the road to the mortgng orst What do the people of th care whether the ownership of the road is in the hands of the Rothschilds the Vanderbilts, or the Goulds? For the pcople who are com. pelled to maintain the road the sooner itis closed out and the water wrung out of the stock the better. In tewd of paying interest upon $130,600 per mile, which the road is obliged to sarn now, they will only be paying in- st on not more than ,00) or §25,000 per mile, which the purchasers of the road would pay for it They could veduce the tolls one-half and still pay big dividendson the investment, while the scheme which Mr. Adnins is 8o anx- ious to put through continuance of high tolls and merciless exactions for the next sisty years. No matter how houest or economie the pres ent managers of the road may bo thoy cannot earry the load which Credit Mo- ilier and Jay Gould piled upon the compuny without pping the whole country, throngh which the road of its productive wealth.

In some of the military departinents, the abuse of the wmileage privilege has been so gross that publie attention heen called to it by circular from the adjutant-general’s office. The induc ment towmake trips for the mterests of the service becomes very strong when every such trip, when made, adds any- where from $50 to $200 to the monthly pay of the party who makes it. Of course, there iz some force in the argu- ment that free transportati sonal compliment with v cons i o that fre » added, is a 5 travel at »f the mileage fund, Paymaster-General Rochester mends that hercafter an who may be traveling under orders shall only be allowed his actual fave and n small milenge sufli | to cover actual incidental expenses such | as sleeping car, hotels, &e. This would | be a sensible solution of the problem Private soldiers when tr: de allowed by regulation their fare, which is given them on a transport tion order on the railrowd compuny fur- nished by the quartermaster. There no reason why the same rule should not obtain with officers. If after each trip officers were permitted to putin a bill for expenses, ecrtilied to under their ow signature as actually expended, and th allowable items earefully covered by ulations there would be fewer compluints, about the mil abuse, As nattors now stand mile 's about the sume relation to the actual expense as perquis. ites in the Georgia legislature did to the per diem pay of members. *“The perdir- jum,” said n hay seed member confiden- tially, “don’'t amount to much but the perriquees is h—IL" The recommends tion of General Rochester is a good one and will bave the endorsement of the ma- jority of the army.
