The government has completed its bill against the Bell Telephone company and will be filed in afew days by Judge Thurman in the United States district court at Columbus, Obio. The govern- ment attorneys eharge that the letters patent issued to Bell in 1876 and 1877 were illegally and improperly proeured and that Bell not only failed to meet the re- quirements of the law, but misled and de- ceived the examining officials of the pat entoffice. Ttis asserted that Belt was anticipated in the discovery of the elec- trical speaking telephone by Phillip Reis Cromwell, Floetwood Varloy, Antonio Muecei, Elisha Gray, Thomas A. Edison, Asabel K. Eaton and many others, It is claimed that this valuable dis- covery iseither the property of some one of these prior discoverers, or, having been abandoned by the original discoverer, is now tree to be used by the people of the United States. The bill coneludes with a reassertion that Bell is not the inventor of the instrament which he now claims to own and operates through the American Bell Telephone company, and with a deseription of the monopolistic character of the company. It is alleged that the telephone is of great publie interest and importance and that the Bell Telephone company, by receiy- ing and demanding large sums of money for use of televhones alleged to be cov- ered by its patents, is oppressing the people of the United States, and that the Inited States is informed and believeson invalid grounds. On these grounds the court is asked cither to wholly repeal the patents, or if not, to decide in what part they are void and to make a decree covering that por- tion of the patents which is wrong and illegal. The question of the maintenanco of the telephone monopoiy is now in a fair way o be promptly settled. The suit brought will be pushed rapidly to a decision, and the appeal which is certain to follow to the supreme court will be given pre- cedence on the docket. If the principle involved is dectared unpatontable, orif tho inventions of Reis and others are adjudged to cover the same features s those subsequently included in the Bell patents, the right to manutacture and operats telephone systems will be thrown open to the public. With the consequeut competition the enormous telephone charges of the present will at once dis- appear, and the business will be placed on the same basis as any other enter- prise. he people of the country who have suffered from the extortions of the telephone monopoly will wateh with much interest the outcome of the suits. Help Them Out. The capitalists of Omaha are reciving a great deal of well deserved censure for their persistent refusal to foster local in- dustries and assist in the location of new manufacturing enterprises in this city. A dozen valuable mills and factories within the past two years could easily have been attracted to Omaha, if reason- able inducements had been offered to their owners, to make the transfer. Scarcely a moulh passes that some en- terprise is not canv: 1, only to die out from lack of encouragement. Letters of inquiry to asking what chances there are obtaining local stock subscriptions for our industries are common and the answers returned are not of a cheering nature. Omaha's leading men of wealth are turning their money oyer too rapidly in real estate speculation to listen to overtures which ask the investment of their means in other channels, and they 'm to be too short sighted to under- nd that no real estate boom can be long maintained without ha tial backing of an iner ety oy loyeN LT Bl sLIER SIS orling men and laborers, /hat Omalia needs most at thoe present time is a stock company which will make it its business to assist worthy enterprises to locate in our midst by providing suita- ble sites and o portion of the capital when necessary. Such an organization has worked magnificent results in St. Paul. It would proye as successful here. WHEN the eity has made the necessary cut on Leavenworth street to the munici- pal limits and the county takes up and completes the work of grading beyond, another important and valuable thor- oughfare will be added to our streets, ex- tending on easy grades into tho adjacent country. Good country ronds leading in and out of Omaha are only less impor- tant than properly graded and paved streets in the city itself. Other Lands Than Ours. Spring has opened in Europe with the war elonds, whose bursting have been so often predicted, lowering less ominously than for muny months past in the Balkan peninsular, Servia and Bulgaria have at last signed th treaty of peace, and for the moment all seems tranquil. theless, the ealm conee ambitions which it sec; helieve capable of Aust upposed to be des tending her dominions sonthyw sia is incensed beeause Bulgari only secured Roumeha but. plul;_n od wid and comfort to the Tur] inis rent with internal dissensions regarding tha rvival claims of the reizning prince and the pretender, Karageorgevich, and her people are by no means contented with the humiliating results of their late cam- paigns. Monctenegro, encouraged by Russia, is developing a policy of self assortiveness which offends Austria, and the Greeks are merely biding their time until a quarrel between other pow leaves them free to carry out their war- like plans against the Turks. No such quarrel is at present visible, Tho gr powers are, for the time, absorbed cach with its own aff heir parlisments are koeping them busy, thus contributing proot that wars in Europe are likely to occur when the people are in control thun when uu ministers are left to their own devices.

Little is said of military moveweuts on the Nile, and Egypt, as a whole, seems to have lost its eharm. So, in France, the new winistry las wound up foreign afluirs as quickly as possible and turned its attention to in- teimal quarrels, “Spain is on the eve of a general cleation, and Austria and Gi muny ure considering bills against social- s and other matters of hume interest hus the spring opens with no visi shadows of war to mar its pleasant promises. If trouble is brew the world at large has no intimation of it. It is not even certain that cholera, which for three successive years has ravaged the coast of the Mediterrancan, will reap- pear. Spain, Portugal, western France and England, perhaps, have most reason to dread it, but they have had ample op- portunity to prepare for its approach and to render causes for its development fes and far betweeu. " he political prophets at London are now agreed that a square and outright lome rule bill will be laid before the house of commons within a month and that a dissolution of parliament will oceur not later than July. The best information coincides in the view that the home rule and land measures will be embodied in the ne bill and that the premier is con- fident of his ability to carry the measure through the commons in spite of the op- position of Lord Hartington and his whig followers. If the measure is defeated in the house of commons parliament will be dissolved immediately. 1f successful in the house of lords it is the present inten- tion of the premier to renew the conte at the antumn session, without an appeal to the country. There ave, neverthe- less, strong indications of increased hostility to home rule in the liberal party, which Gladstone leads, and which makes its success doubttul. Not only Lord Hartington, the whig leader, but Sir Henry James, the former attorney general, and a liberal member for Wales, s decidedly hostile to any plan embrac- ing a rate parliament for Ireland. The e issment of Gladstone’s posi- sufliciently revealed by Secreta Morley in his admonition to the liberals to organize anew for another appeal (o the country in anticipation of a speedy dissolution of the present parliament. This expresses the desy of obtaining a majority for home rule which is felt among the prime minister’s nearest political friends. While Gladstone is wrestling with his Irish programme the tories are making the most of the situa- tion. Though they failed in the attempt to compel the government to muke n premature diselosure of its plans, they are making decided inroads on the mimsterial forces in the house ot com- mons. The erisis i f:\slm-pru:whin". of cting the motion to expel of the Orleanist and Bona- parte families has been giving general isfaction in France. It was a victory lul De Freyeinet and the ministry, which increases their hold upon the public con- fidence. The question was upon the ex- pulsion of the princess, which was re- sted by the government. M. Clemen- ceau, who stood sponsor for the ministry at its birth, led the opposition, and was completely overwhelmed, the majority against expulsion being almost two to one. The chamber then passed a vote of confidence iu the government by 833 to 112. The nlt rditable alike to the good sense, moderation and patriotism of the deputies, and will mater trengthen the position of the Frenchrepublic before the world, The expulsion of the princes wunlll.lm\c been a fatal confession of weakne: Nowhere could lln) be less dangerous to the republic than in Paris, and if it is not strong enough to survive their presence there it might as well give up the ghost at once. If they are disposed to hateh treason, it is safer to keep them under the eye of the government t] send them out of the country. Thi the view taken by M. De Froycinet, and its adoption by the chamber is highly cn- couraging to all well-wishers of the re- public. As for the ministry, its position has been materially strengthened, and the present indications are that it will enjoy a very respectable lease of life. But it is never safe to sveculate on the to-morrow in French politics. The conference of the powers at Con- stantinople has given its assént to the Roumelian agreement as modified by Rus- sin. The original agreement stands, ex- cept that the cl ing to a military alliance betw and Bulgaria s been climing t the title nce of Bulgaria” has been inserted in ace of “‘Prince Alexander.” From this n settlement Rus- ch a concession. France obtains an assurance that Rou- a will not impose additional duties at her frontier upon French goods that have already paid a customs tax to Turkey. Russia eliminates the clause of the agreement that created between Tur- key and Bulgaria a military alliance and gave the former the control of the Bul- garian army in a war of defense. Th modification of the Roumelian agreement only makes it elearer that the Bulgarian administrative unity, which at first scouted as impossible to permit, has been achieved, while the relief of the Bulgarians from a military oblj, Turkey, which they had been assume, increases their indenended With the ef of Bulgaria from her compact to aid Turkey with her military forces, when attacked, her freedom of action becomes more assured, and her hold upon Roumelia, through their com- mon ruler, not lessened, When the last formalitics of thei» status are arranged we shall probably see efforts steadily made for the closer unification of the two Bulgs as they at first liked to be called, lhlull"h the bonds of government, commerce, common laws, military sys- tems and highways of intercommunis tion.
