His first performance before a light house. High prices and reserved sec- lions vroro responsible for the poor re ceipts. THE latest Denver sensation is the ab sconding of a vinegar manufacturer.

Tin : location of the next Grand Army reunion at Fremont is not only n good thing for Fremont , but also for the re union , no the largo attendance from Omaha will make it success finan cially aa well as in every other respect. THE explosion which was expected to take place in the senate when Sherman's outrage resolutions wore brought up did not occur. The democrats reserved their powder for some moro promising occa sion. As usual they blundered by going on the record against the proposition to investigate the alleged outrages. Tun Cuban revolutionists in Now York are highly iadiguant over the arrest of Col. Carlos Aquoro , nt Key West , on the charge of being a bandit. They have passed resolutions endorsing him as n patriot and denouncing his arrest. It is a pretty difficult thing to distinguish a Cuban patriot from a bandit. TUB Iowa legislature was bound to give Mr. Allison a clear title to his seat in the senate. They had some doubt about the law regulating senatorial elec tions , and so they elected him the second end time in order to prevent his being counted out. It is to bo hoped now that no Iowa democrat will try to contest his scat. IK a speech delivered at an anti-slavery meeting in Syracuse , N. Y. , thirty years ago , Fred. Douglass , in touching on the subject of miscegenation , said : "If a black man burns his foot by marrying a white woman , ho must expect to stand on the blisters. " Fred has applied a mustard plaster , and will soon bo dancing around with a blister.

That Bottles it. Franco will now remove the embargo on the American hog. TUB Philadelphia Call thus hits the nail squarely on the head : "Tho rail road argument is : No. 1. That congress lias no power to interfere in any way with the chattered privileges of the cor porations in the nsroral states. No. 2. The state legislatures have no power to annul or modify charters which have not boon abandoned or exceeded. No. 3. .Nobody has any power in the matter. " TUB Montana constitutional conven tion had a very lively debate over a reso lution having in view the prohibition of jitate officers and numbers of the legisla ture receiving railroad passes. The reso lution was voted down , probably because the members of the convention not only bad their pockets lined with passes but because they alio entertained hopes of aomo day being olllcora of the state ot , Montana that is to be. The railroads have never been known to overlook a constitutional convention.

TttR LATK CONGRESSMAN MAGKKY. The death of Congressman Edmund M. Mackoy , of South Carolina , on Mon day hst was very sudden and unexpected. On Thursday , of last week , while in ap parently good health and attending to his duties , ho was sudonly prostrated , and after four days Illness ho died. The sad announcement caused general surprise , as no one for a moment supposed that ho was dangerously ill. Mr. Mackoy was a native of South Carolina , having been born in Charles ton on the 8th of March , 1840. llo was n man of fine intellectual attainments. Ho identified himself with the republi can party at the close of the war , and was prominent in politics to his death. Ho was admitted to the bar in 1808 , but continued active in politics , be ing elected to various municipal , county , and state oflices. In 1874 ho was elected to congress from the Charleston district. Uo was speaker of the lower house of the republican legis lature of South Carolina in 1870 during the controversy in that state over the election of Hampton or Chamberlain an governor , and over the electoral roto. The compromise subsequently entered into gave the state legislature to the democrats and the electoral vote to the republicans. Ho was a candidate for a seat in the forty-sixth congress , but was defeated , and , though ho contested , never received the seat. Ho was elected to the forty-aovonth and forty-eighth congresses. Mr. Mackoy'a death will be a great loss to the republican party of South Carolina. Ho was regarded as one of the shrewdest politicians in either early in his state. In the present congress Mr. Mackoy was the only white republican congressman from the south , the only other republican representative being a colored man with the Irish name of O'Hara , of North Carolina , who made the announcement of Mr. Mackoy's death. The death of Mr. Maokoy makes the sixth that has occurred in the house of representatives since the election of the forty-eighth congress a year ago last November. Those who have died are flcrndon , of Alabama , who died before tha adjournment of the forty-seventh congress ; Cults , of Iowa , who died dur ing the vacation ; Haskoll , of Kansas , who died shortly after congress convened , Horron , of Louisiana , who aho died last summer , and Poole , of South Carolina , who died before the assembling of con gress. TUB senate having voted a thousand dollar clerk to those senators who are not chairmen of committees , the house is now discussing the proposition to pro vide its members with private secretaries. A great many of the representatives , who are really in favor of the measure , dare not vote for it , as they are afraid that their constituents will look upon it as a salary grab. "It is all very well , " said Representative Dockery , of Missouri , "and very true that it would bo public economy to provide every member with a clerk , but it would take moro time and money for mo to maka my constituents understand that fact than it would to do my own work or hire it done , consequently quently I shall not vote for the proposi tion if itoH'orei. " This is the general fooling among members. The fact is not widely known that n largo number of representatives already have cloika at government expense. They provide for a departmental clerk for 'the consideration of his services evenings and moVnings , as needed. The clerk is boruo on the rolls of some executive deport ment , but performs very little of the le gitimate labor of the office , being com pelled to got out his patron's lottoru at lib ollicial desk. The scheme does network work so well since the second advent of civil service reform , as such places can not now bo had for the asking. The main reason that the representatives do not fool inclined to vote for this measure is that they are elected by the people every two years , and they do not fnel like making explanations to their con stituents. The senators , on the other hand , are elected by the legislatures for six years , and , consequently , are moro independent. IN the matter of tilling vacancies Pres ident Arthur is proceeding altogether too slowly to suit the average congressman. The trouble is that the president finds it difficult to select from the army of appli cants men who would satisfy orcrybody. It is probably his desire to please every body that causes the delay. There are a number of important postoUlccs , the terma of whoso incumbents have expired , but under the law the incumbents are entitled to act until their successors are appointed and qualified. There has boon for several weeks a vacancy in the Eighth United Stated judicial circuit , but con gressmen who have interested themselves in securing a successor are unable to ob tain information as to the time when ho will bo appointed. THK latest aspirant for the judicial shoes of Judge McCreary , is Judge Da vid Wagner , of Missouri , whoso appoint ment is being urged by the entire con- ( ( rosaional delegation of that state , but inasmuch as Missouri has no electoral votes to give to the next republican nom. inoo for president , it is not likely that Judge Wagner will ornamot the bench in the eighth judicial circuit. v WHAT how will the American hog have to travel abroad , in thin embargo business kecpa on ) Even little Portugal now puts on aira and sticks up its nose at our pet product , and says that it shall not enter that country. As a measure of re taliation it is suggested that we put an embargo on the importation of cork from * as * MB" Portugal , of which $500,000 worth is brought to the United States annually. But wo advise congress to go slow in this matter. Docs congress want to osaumo the responsibility of an advance in life preservers and bottled beer stoppers ? This embargo on cork is toosoriouia matter to trillo with. AccoitutNO to the St. Louis Globe' Democrat , Senator Mandorson is urging the rcappdiiitment of Ilonry M. Atkinson as surveyor general of Now Mexico. Senator Mandorson might just as well endorse Star Route Dorsoy for the posi tion. If ho know an much obout Atkin son and his work as wo do , ho would keep his hands off from any paper en dorsing him. AiioniKit telegraph company has boon organized with an alleged capital of SI- ! ! 000,000-with the privilege of watering it to the extent of § 7,000,000 more. Mn. HEWITT has introduced a bill au thorizing the title of newspapers to bo copyrighted. Perhaps Mr. Hewitt has his eye on some paper that can't read its title clear. OEOI.OOIC.IL MAI' 01' THK Quito an important scientific work has recently been completed by the United States geological survey. It is the pub lication of a map showing the extent of the exposed areas of the principal geolo gical formation ! ) in the region explored by the Hoyden survey between 180 ! ) and 1880. The colored portions embrace the whole of Wyoming and Colorado , the western parts of Dakota and Nebraska , the eastern portion of Utah , the greater part of Montana , and a piece of eastern Idaho. The Philadelphia 1'rcss in describing - scribing this map says : The most extensive , nud indeed most interesting formations , since it is from them that the rich fossil faunru , described by Loidy , Cope and Marsh , has boon ob tained , are the various horizons of ter tiary , the Laramie , or post-crotacoons , and the crotaccos. The map shows a largo moss of tertiary strata occupying almost the whole of western Nebraska , and extending into eastern Wyoming. To the west of the Ilocky Mountains , in the elevated plateau of the Qrcat Basin , an other considerable area of tertial strata covers southwestern Wyoming and north western Colorado , grouped around Green River. The moat remarkable of the for mations is that known as the Laramic. Ono of all the numerous fossil animals found in thii formation not a single one is known to bo identical with those found in the tertiary , and three that still exist. This extensive area is the battle ground of the palaeontologists , whoso opin ions are divided as to whether it is cretaceous or tertiary. These Laramie mio , or post-cretaceous beds , cover the greater part of Western Dakota and East ern Montana , from whence they run north into British America. A tongue from this mass runs southward into Mon tana and bends westward along Wind river , further to the south detached areas occur in Wyoming and Colorado ; n largo mass exists in the northeast of the latter state , and in the southeast is another area , extending into , Now Mex ico. Similar beds appear to occur in Mexico , West of the Missouri , in Da kota , and extending westward around the Black Hills , is an extensive bed of. cretaceous. Similar beds occur upon the opposite side of the Missouri , running up into the British possessions. Central Montana contains a mass of cretaceous , and along both sides of the Ilocky mountains isolated patches are found , the largest in the south of Cole rado. A connected account of the plants and animals that in former ages existed in this region haa yet to bo written , .but the materials for it exist in the bulky quartos of the geological survey. The mountain masses consist of vol canic and metamorphic rocks , uptilted against the sides of which occur silurian , carboniferous and other ancient stratified rocks. No workable coalbods have yet boon found in the carboniferous beds west of the 104th meridian. WEST OF TITK MISSOURI. The people of Seward are not easily satisfied. They hanker for another rail road , they have boon offered one , and atill they are not content. A few weeks ago they decided to invite the Union Pa cific to build to the town , and a commit tee was appointed to invoitigato and re port on what terms the coveted boon could bo secured. Meanwhile the notorious rious Claudius Jones hurried to the U. P. headquarters , consulted with some of the olliciala.and telegraphed the committee to stay at homo. While the veteran railroad capper woa in Omaha ho secured admis sion to the extension ring , and in a few days the Omaha , Seward & Republican Valley railroad company was organized and ready to receive donations. It was expected thaf'Seward" ' in the title would bo a taking card with the townspeople. And then you know it would bo en tirely know , a kind of nicklo-plato antimonopoly - monopoly road built for the good of the people. Bonds would easily carry , and they could bo turned over to the Union Pacific without a contest. Claudius and Cams would got a good"robato" and pos sibly the general management of the line in political campaigns. It was a bold , cheeky plan , but it did not carry. . The fact is , that Claudius and Corns know the producers of Seward county will not vote bonds to the Union Pacific nor to any other road. It would bo folly for them to tuotgago themselves to help build a railroad in the hope of getting competition an article that has boon banished out of the Union. At every point touched by the B , & M. and the U , P. the tariffs of both are the same to given points , and there is no such thing as competition. While another railroad through Sow. ard county would benefit some localities , it would not pay to give § 75,000 for' it. The Jones family are interested , liovtf ever , and it would not be surprising if they succeed in feathering their nest some future day. The Burlington has already commenced work on the extension to Grand Island. It Is reported that a contract for thirty mile * of the road has been let , the work to be completed by May 1st. This fact will give Grand Island an unexpected i but agreeable boost foil the road to pros * perity , The boom hm created some lit tle interest in this oityud many specu lators are already 5n'8fcp\fiold \ with cor- ( nor lota ivnd highly colored pictures of future greatness. Several young busi ness men of this city have about decided to start branch houses thoro. Plattsmouth is on the anxious bench. Railroad rumors are a constant source of irritation and a surveyor's flagstaff is the nightmare of the city. The B. & M. shops there give employment to n largo number of men , yet the town would rob Crcston if it had half a chnnco. The latest scare is based on the arrival of a surveying gang whoso movements are watched with the keenest interest. They have commenced at the bridge , and are setting stakes directly west. Some pco- plo bpliovo it moana the abandonment of the river line , and the construction of a cut off which would carry the main line beyond the Plntto bond and avoid the dangers of that portion of the lino. This is hardly possible , as it would lengthen the Omaha line and make it an unde sirable roundabout route for passengers goint west. It is well known that the yards of the company in the city are too cramped hedged in by the river on one side and high blufls an the other. The tortuous route to the bridge is also a dangerous and difficult picco of road which the company desires to remedy. Hence if a route can bo found among the blulfs on the west side of the city , con necting with the present line near Ore- apolis , it will doubtless bo built , and Plattsmouth can possess its soul in peace. Times are hard in Salt Lake , according to The Tribune. "Tho action of the rail roads has flooded the town with goods , drained the town of money in paying freights , and prevented the farmers from selling the moro valuable products of the soil. By the policy of the Union Pacific and its branches , the trade which Salt Lake built up in Idaho and Montana has been taken away. " The Tribune urges on the business men to demand of the U. P. an equal chance for the trade of the adjoining territories , and in case the company refuses , that in ducements bo offered the Central Pacific to build it line through Idaho into Mon tana. The condition of trade calls for desperate remedies. "It is bettor to deal with the U. P. if possible , but if that cannot bo done , then the next best thing should bo tried. There is no justice in the road taking from this paint the trade which naturally belongs to it ; it is a power which no railroad company should bo given , and when usurped , it should bo fought. " The sheep men of Colorado have raised then1 voice for the old tariff on wool. Ono of the reasons for this cry is given by a prominent herder. Ho says : "Something must bo done at once by congress or the sheep interests will be ruined in Colorado rado , owing to the heavy expenses in feeding entailed upon all raisers during this winter. The snows have boon BO deep and the weather so cold that great losses have been sustained , and it often costs about thirty cents per day for each head , for hay and oats. The snow is three feet deep on a level on all the ranges , and it is impossible to graze Snow has been falling on snow since December - comber 5 , on which date the growers commenced feeding hay , continuing over since. The losses in herds have alsobeon diecouragingly largo. Wholesale deaths are reported on every side from freezing. In ono case , out of a herd of GOO sheep , 320 have died ; in another instance 700 lambs out of a herd of 800 have perished from snow and cold. Of course these losses are not equalled on all ranges , but it is estimated that in the vicinity of the Kiowa 3,000 out of GO.OOO animals have diod. " This is a new and novel call for protec tion , and will evoke the sympathies of every man , woman and child who wear woolen goods. It would bo so sonorous of the nation to levy a tax on nine-tenths of the people , to rescue * the other one- tenth from bankruptcy or losses caused by winter weather. While in a liberal mood Uncle Sam might bo induced to build a shod over Cole t ado and feed the shorn lambs on buckwheat cnkcs and rams' honi soup till the spring thaws set in. The constitutional convention of Mon tana is not a noisy body. It is so numer ically weak that the youthful statesman cannot be hoard beyond Poverty gulch. A majority of the members elected last fall wore democrats , but the fact that the positions were without pay or proapoctive emoluments quite a number resigned or failed to qualify. A great many look upon the convention as usclossj at the present time. There is no prospect of securing admission into the Union the present year. The plan is to proparothe constitution- , submit it to a vote of the people next fall , and then proas the claims for statehood on congross. It is believed that after tho'prosidential elec tion congress will drop political consid erations and pass upon the claims of both Dakota and Montana purely on their merits and population. The materials thus far submitted for incorporation in the constitution show quite conclusively that the delegates have an earnest nurposo to frame an or ganic law in the interest of labor , against the ajjgr'ssion of capital and corporate rapacity. In many pastern states , whore monopoly haa held unrestricted away , constitutional proviaionshave boon adopt ed to correct the evils brought about by that malign influence , and to protect the weak against the tyranny of the strong. The most liberal of those provisions are selected from the proposed organic law , and it is roasjnablo to believe that the constitution of Montana , framed by these two score of miners and lawyers , will bo worthy the adoption of the people for whom they act , and will bo aa wisely designed to promote the welfare of so ciety and secure even-handed justice to all classes as any of the thirty-eight con stitutions that form the basis of written law. The question of fuel supply is ono that comes directly homo to the people of the treeless west every winter. The main sources of supply in Wyoming and Colorado - rado are controlled by corporations the Union Pacific , the Burlington nnd the Colorado Coal and Iron company. The mines in Wyoming , from which Nobras. ka ia principally supplied , are enormous in area and practically inexhaustible , yet it is impossible for any other individual or company ta mine coal in the territory and find a market for it on the railroad. Hence , the company has a complete mo nopoly which wfll continue until another railroad from the east reaches the terri tory. As a general thing , purchasers do not complain so much of the price as tho. quality of the coal furnished and the in sufficiency of the supply. In this city every ton of coal sold for the last six weeks was fully one-fourth dust , or the refuse of the mines , and the delivery has frequently boon four days behind ordcrr. At many towns 100 and 200 miles west of this city the price is the same us hero , while on the branch lines it is higher and the supply short. The company Ins un dertaken too much of a job , but it pays so well there is no danger that it will loosen its grip and permit others to enter the business. The company operates twelve minen in Wyoming and ono in Utah , which , in the aggregate send out an average ot 4,100 tons of coal per day. At Carbon three mines are operated , turning out 1,300 tons daily ; Rock Springs , five mines , 1,600 tons ; Almy , two , 809 tons ; Twin Crook , two , UOO tons ; Grass Creek , Utah , ono mine , 200 tons. Those mines give employment to about 2,200 men. All these mines except those -at Twin Crcok supply ho market with coal in well as supplyinv the road. The Union Pacific also docs much * in the coal business in Colorado , operating two mines at Erie , two at Coma , ono at Baldwin and ono at Louisville , the total daily output being about 1,300 tons. This great industry is all the time becoming greater , tha de mand increasing with every now settler , increase of buaincsa on the roads and extension of country supplied through opening now lines of communication. Portions of both Idaho and Montana now draw supplies of fu l from Wyoming ing- _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Machine 1'olltlcs AVltbin the llcati 1'nrty. Holt Countj Banner. Nothing so seriously threatens the fu ture success of the republican party in this state , and especially in this part of the state , as docs the machine methods by which those who have been placed in high position by the people , seek to pro long their official career by coercion and undue influence. E. K. Valentino , prior to his last election , grossly abused the power placed in his hands , with a view to secure a re-election. Both the land oflices and postoQicc's of his district were used by himself in some instances and by his over zealous friends in others to coerce the people and to subsidize the press. A republican paper in Boone county was notified that it could have no land oilico printing because it opposed the nomina tion of Valentino. Wo were told by B. F. Chambers , of Niobrara land office , that if wo would publish a STRAIGHT republi can paper ho would give us a share of the land oflico printing. Wo told him that''waa tho. kind of a paper wo were printing , to which ho replied , "Oh , no , anti-monppoly. " Wo asked him if as a republican , wo had not a right to enter tain anti-monopoly viqws. Ho said wo would have to drop anti-monopolyiam be fore ho would give ua any land office printing. This waa prior to the conven tion and wo understood his meaning. Wo niuat either turn in with The Omaha Republican , then owned by the U. P. railroad and help to nominate Valentine or go without landoffico printing. Cham bers , however , found that wo wore not to bo bought in that manner and the people of Holt county gave Turner a plurality vote at the poila. Sometime prior to the republican convention last fall , all of the members of the republican central com mittee of this county signed a petition to the Niobrara laudoffice asking that a share of the landoffico printing of this district bo given to The Banner , which petition was wholly ignored. After the election , all of the republican county of ficers elected , joined in a petition to the same Niobrara land oflico which was signed by the chairman and five other members of the now central committee , and by all of the republicanmembors of the O'Neill bar , and fifteen other prominent republicans , asking that half of the land- oflico printing which by law might bo given to O'Neill papers , bo given tw the Holt County Banner. This petition was sent in several weeks ago with a special request that an answer be given as soon as convenient , whether or not the prayer of the petition will bo granted. The officers of the landofiico do not deign to reply. What care they ( they say by their actions ) for The Banner ( which they cannot control ) or the friends of The Banner , or the leading republicans of Holt county , county officers , central com mittee , bar and all. If wo would prom ise to support Valentino for re-election next fall wo have no doubt the landoffico would bo both just and generous to this paper , but wo regard Valentino as a heavy burden to the republican party of this district nnd as being either incompe tent or unwilling to discharge in a credi table manner the duties of his office , ' and such a man wo cannot support. Neither can wo renounce the position wo have honestly taken on the anti-monopoly question.
