WORK OF THE LIVE STOCK COMMISSION, © It having been stated that the live stock commission has been killing old and worth Jess horses uny paying for them; also that glandered horses have been shipped into this state and killed and paid for, the following statement 18 made from the ‘records of the live stock sanitary commission : 1. November 80, 1586 to 1535, had been destroyed for glanders' 6i0 of the number bad been in the state two years and apwards, uveraging four years. The bal auce (160) were sucklings, one year old colts, and horses that had been in the state under two yoars. Six hundred and ninety of this number were under ecight years old. ‘The 1aw allowing indemnity was approved Murch 1, 1588, This proves that the 670 animals were in the state at the time the law was pussed. The class of horses destroyed was ully up to the average of Nebraska horses, seventy-five out of the horses weighing 1s. The remaining 7 were Rood 0 to 1600 pounds. 1 indemaity has in e to report their horses, and this Iilllv' reason thut 8o many borses have been disposed of.

In a good many cases an animal sufferiug from chronic glanders will be able to do work for years, and during that time will inoculate other animals, and be a source of danger to the owner ana his fawily. “Each case was carefully examined, and when doubts of the rights of owners to in- demnity existed, they were requirea to fur. nish suflicient proof 1o establish their clains, fatling to do Which indeunity was ot al- lowe *“L'he history of each animal was taken at the time of examination and appraisement and recorded.

Iv was the talk to-day among promiveut politicians that Clarkson, of fowa, is no longer & possibility for cabinet preferment. A telegram was received by Senator Man- derson to this effect shortly after his arrival hera last night, and the talk is active that Thurston is still in the ring At any rate his frionds are not only talking but acting. It is said that Manderson enter tains the opinion that his chances are very bright. But, however this may be, many of the best republicans of the ~ state are not slow to state that his tion, if made, will prove « calamity to the state and the gr west It is certain, however, that a line of action has been deeided upon 1o bring Nebraska's claims more prominently to the attention of the president-elect, and that the conference held in the rooms of Senator Howe last night bas much to do with it, But this is by no means certain, Yet it is reliably stated that Manderson is doing_everything within his power to further Thurston’s ambition The strongest possible influences are to be extended at once for the Union Pacific judge advocate, THE PYTHIAN CELERRATION The Pythian bration in th $ city to-day was a grand affair. ‘The programme given in a former number of Tne Ber was carried tto the letter, Tt was ideal in the eyes of Kuights gencraily, and the public pronounece it much the finest demonstration of the kind ever witnessed in Lincoln and this is saying good deal.

Chi cago has been systematically robbing the western producer for the past twenty years, and by tymg up with the railroads it has been ‘worked to perfection. The Chicag warchousemen have undergraded our gr products at all times. Then, as an induce ment, the roads traversing the territory west of Chicago were induced to eut rates to Chi cago on grain, while the ro running east from Chicago incresed the rates, thereby enabling the Chicago sharlk to get the grain tied up i the clevator at that place. These rates were muintained —a low rate in the west and o hizh rate m the east—during the season that country merchants ship their geain, — When ail the grain in sight had been obtained under this system and was closeted in the Chicago elevators, the rates of the western roads would be restored 1d on roads communicating with the east- ern seaboard from Chicago rates would be lowered again to their former standurd, and this way the traMc was handled by the ads at @ good marein, and tne Chicago merchant also reaped a handsome reaunera tion, ail of which came out of & pocket of the testern producer.
