A terrific blizzard is now prevailing on the “High Line™ of the Union Pacitic in Colorado, and travel is suspended.

Senator Van Wy vening he could not_ see w < not en- tively > with the constituti and money- lIenders diseriminated against a portion of the legal tender moncy of the country when they made their loans payable in gold only. The people had a right to the use of the money provided for them by the government, and any law which pre: served that right must be constitutional, Chief Justice Ul had elearly stated the case in an opinion delive by him in December, 1860, in the case of the Veazie bank against Fenno, involving the right of the government to impose a tax of 10 per cent on the bank notes issued by state banks. The purpose of the tax was to drive the state banks out of cxistence, to give place to the newly- created national banks. Justice Chas said “Having thus in the exercise of undis puted constitutional powers undertaken to provide a currency for the whole coun- try, it cannot be {uestioned that con- constitutionally lie people by appropr * Without the power, od, its attempts to secure a sound and uniform curreney must be futile.” In accordance with this decjsion the tax was sustained, although a dissenting opinion was delivered by one of the asso- ciate justices. > statement that a man might refuse tosign a loan made payable only in gold did not affect the status of the question, in Senator V: W, opinion.

My UNDER “THE BEAUTIFUL" The Oondition of Omaha Real Estate the Past Week, THE SNOW AFFECTS THE TRADE. Prospective Advantages to Omaha— Mayne's Big Parchase—~Hopeful- ness of Dealers and Re- sults of the Week, The week which has just closed has been almost uneventful in the real estate world. Snow and cold have opi deter people not alone from pur but even from attempting an inspection of the property on sale. And yet, deal- ers have had but little reason to be di pleased. All of them have made some sales, while some of them " claim to have exceeded their estimates made in the opening of the year. The great event of the week was the purchase by C. E. Mayne of a tract of 124 acrves from 8. H. IL Clarke. 'The consideration was £100,000. This aided materially in swelling the volume of transfers. Last week the daily average of the latter did not exceed $25,000,while, during the past week, the daily showing :||lrl' aches §40,000. The purchase of this large tract has given rvise to some speculation as to who are the real pu . and for what purpose it was thrown upon the market, €. B, Mayne has figured as the purchas- er,though some of his brothers in the real estate business scem to think that he has associates whose names, for politic rea- sons, are kept from the publie. Another theory is that, as the ground is in rather a_delightful 1 attractiv wt of the city, it has been seized upon by some of the informed members of the cable line, h to benefit themse out of the ndustry in which their money is to be invested. It ¥ company was organ- ago. To most people, 'n to the members themselves, it h: been an org;: ion on paper. Lately, however, it is claimea to be getting ready for active life. With a charter which fii\' 28 it exclusive right to many thoroughtares in this city, it is belie to be the intention of the corpora- tion to extend 3 lines in many directions, mainly toward the northwest, where the eligible property bought by Mayne is situated. Some peo- ple feel that belind Mr. Mayne is a syn- dicate of this cable company who hold the property su to certain limita- tions. Whether this be true or not, the is indisputable that the anticipated springing into life of the cable road has stimulated a number with greater hopes and promises, while it has ulso indueced others to remove their lands from the market with the determination of await- ing the inception_of the enterprise and the iner ue which it will bring to thei is is known to be the reason igned by B pair of citi- zens who are interested in an addition on the west. They own possibly half a mile on either side of one of our through streets. Along this thoroughfare, it is expected the cable line will be run, and, when extended, °cannot do otherwise than materially appreciate the value of their property Dodge, gDivenport, on the west, and Tenth, Eleventh and Sixteenth streets on the south, offer special facilities for the building of this road, and some one of these will doubtless be selected on which to climb the hills to the beautiful country beyond. There 1s a strong feeling that the work of building this line will be commenced early this spring, and pushed through with rapidity, especially toward the west. This will be an important fac- tor, not alone in thedevelopment but also in the appreciation of the property n that part of the city. Aunother will be the viaduets. When™ these shall be ex- tended aeross the tracks on the south, an impetus will also be given to property in that part of the eity, which, for some years back, has been negle in the at- tention which other localities have in- spired.
