IT Is a question at Lincoln whether nugar and salt will mix well. There la altogether too much sugar in tint ualino bill. CANDIDATES for mayor will have to present credentials of giod moral clntao tar and business qualification ! . No others need apply. It has jast boon discovered why it was no cold at the Washington monument celebration. John Sherman was pros ! dent o the afTiir. TUB so cilloil hygiouo bill was defeated In the house. Although It received a majority of the votes cist , it did not re celvo a majority of all the members. Ir Joe Barker oncceeds In defeating the ? charter ho bettor pick his grip-sack and move back to England , aa it will not bo very comfortable for him in Omaha after this. THE salary of the mayor will , in all probability , bo fixed at § 1,800. This ought to bring oat some good candidates for the place. That silary , however , i * not any too much for a good man. SENATOR DOLAN has made a much bet tor record during this session of the leg islature than ho did two yoara ago. Ha deserves credit for standing straight on most of the important Issues , and also for his effort } in uaowthing the penitentiary frauds. SENATORS Hastings and Hoobel did not vota on the double-dock c r bill. IE they had voted , they would have been on the aide of the rixllrcnds. Hastings is simply "Tobias Castor's proxy. Hoobel waj a very nsofal man for the jobbers and railroad rings two years ago. Llko Church Horro , he has reformed with a vengeance. IK the wood-cut portraits of the Color ado legislators , as printed in the Rocky Mountain News , are faithful representa tions , wo should say that the legislature of that commonwealth is composed of as lurd a looking lot of men as over gathered within the walls of a stata-houso. They remind us of the "Pike's Peak or Bust" follows , after the "bust" ocurred. IT Is certainly disgraceful for tbo lleu- tonant-govorror to devote his time to lobbying among the member * of the legis lature in the interests of a wildcat Insur ance company , In which ho is eaid to have only about $500 stock. Wo are not sur prised , however , to SOD a man of his Cilibro engaged in such disreputable buei- ness. TIN : season for making gold discoveries and starting now mining camps Is about to opan. Utah leads off with the an nouncement of now gold fields in San Juan county. The ore is fron milling ore , carrying some copper , and small quantities of silver , and rich in gold. Already the miner ] have filed a large number of claim papers , and It is expected that there will bo a big ituh. STILL another complication has baer added to the Illinois conatorlal muddh by the death .of a republican reprcsenta tlvo named Logan , which may bo rf gatd- cd as rather sgaiCcant ! by some people together with the fact , as woaro Informal by the dispatches , that "bis body ha boon taken to. Morrison , " the homo o the deceased. N o billet for senator wll 1)3 taken until next Taeadayand it l.s nc likely that there will bo any election nnt ! after the 4th of March , and porhar. , not then. The final result xiay ha the the governor will bo called upon to aj inint a senator. THE Texas PaciGo forfeiture bill , whic was championed through the senate b Senator Van Wyck , rastoros to the publl domain 15,000,000 acres of land , which 3,000,000 acics nuJro than the grant < the Union Pacific from Omaha to Ogdei and equal to an extent cf territory naarl > one-half the slzo of Nebraska.

The supreme court of Colorado has just rendered an important opinion on the law of negligence. The plaintiff , in the lower court , in attempting to get on a train of the Denver , South Patk & Pacific rail road , lost one of his arms , and brought suit on the ground of negligence en the part of the railroad company. It appears that the train did not stop at the station , bnt merely slackened speed. As It was passing the platform the plaintiIF caught hold of the railing and Iho iron handles at the forward end of the roar coach , and was In the act of stepping upon the plat form of the car when a sudden jerk of the train throw him to the ground. The hind truck passed over his arm , crushing it so badly that amputation was neces sary. The jury returned a vordictof ? 25- COO In his favor , The case was appealed by tho.railroid company ID the supreme court , There were two main points Involved in the decision of the case , the first b"5ing whether the place at which the accident occurred was a regular pissongcr station , end the other being the question "nhon la a' man a passenger ? " It was shown by the evidence that there was no depot thorc , nor were there any tickets sslJ. There was only a platform , which , although utod by the company , was owned by a private party. It was also shown that while tie trains fre quently slackened speed at that point , pasK-ngcra sometimes failed to got on. Although a time card for the USB of em ployes showed the arrival and departure of trains , no card issued for the information of the public mentioned the place as a Kgular passenger station. The court ruled on this point that is the p'aco was not advertised by the company as a regular passenger station , it was not under any obligation to ntop It ) trains there. Aa to what constitutes a patson- gor the court held that when a person en ters a waiting room provided for passen gers , at n regular passenger station , with the intention of getting aboard the train when it arrives , the relation of carrlct and passenger la established. Or if a per son desiring to board a train signal ] it tc stop , and the engineer seeing the signal and recognizing Its moaning - ing , slacks the speed of the train , the act of the engineer Is equivalent to ac cepting the person as a passenger , and the company fs under an obligation to treat him as such. In this casa the plaintiff , who was dep uty postmaster , swung a lantern across the track as the train approached , and at the train slowed np ho attempted to hand tha mall agent in the train the mall , but the latter failed to catch the bag and the train moved on. The plaintiff gave nc Indications to tha train men that ho desired to got on tha train , Ho had no ticket , bnt merely attempted to jump on as the train went by. II docs not appear that the train men ovei know that ho was thcroat all. Undo ) these circumstances the supreme cour ! hold that ho was not entitled to be treated as a passenger , and that ho was guilty of negligence himself in attemptIng - Ing to board the train as ho did. Tht judgment of the court below was accord' ingly reversed. H VICTOR.HUGO'S BIPTHDAY. Victor Hugo celebrated his eighty- fourth birthday yesterday. Ho la one o : the most original and versatile wrlten that Franco has produced. On his eighty third birthday the Parisians colobratet the event by street parades , and th < gathering around his residence of thou sands of people to extend to him tholi congratuhtions. Wo suppose that tin celebration of yesterday was an equally enthusiastic affair. The Oil Jllas , i loading journal , if it cirrled out its pro posed programme , commemorated thi event by publishing a special edition con. talnlng autograph messages of congratu latlons to Victor Hugo from all the literary orary celebrities of the world. Victor Hugo has had an eventful career In his childhood ho led a roving lifi through Franco , Italy and Spain , bu nevertheless ho received an excellent ed ucation. At an early ag < ho determined to devote him self exclusively to literature. BetTrooi the 1823 and 1840 years ho wrota anc published several novels and dramas , al attrattlng great attention , proving quit successful , and alas two volumes of lyric al poems , which were received with groa favor. In 1810 ho was credited wit ) being Iho founder of a now llter.it school In his country , and was ocknowl edged as the greatest living poet ii Franco , if not in Enrop ? . In 1823 , who his first works began to appear , Loul XVIII. gave him a ponsloc ; In 1845 Loul Philippe created him a peer of France and In 1848 ho waa elected a represents tlvo of the city of Paris both to the cci stltutional and the legislative asiemblj In 1851 Napoleon banished him froi Franco , and whllo in exile on the Islan of Guernsey whera ho , made his res donee , ho added to his literary fame I writing aovoral works. Ho returned I lo Paris upon 'he establishment of the i is public , and was received with oreat don of onitrations of joy by his hoita of adnii D. ors. Ho has over since lived a quiet lif D.y and of late years has written nothing. lie er TUB city election takes place tivo wee ! from next Tuesday. The most importa cs offices to bo voted for are tha mayor ai six conncilmon at large , and It is tin that our cltlzons should ba looking abe for suitable candidates. Wo hope th an the people will Interest themselves In tl importjut matter , and for cnco take o political nfFiirs out of the hands of tl or machine and the ward politicians , but beef mere , and ballot-box staffers. The r of spontlbillty of electing honest and cap to bio officers reals with tha pepplo as th ns have it In their power to defeat the rt chine element , and if they do not exc cisa their power they alone ere to blame for the icsult , If rojpeclablo citizens do not take an active part in this campa'gn ' , they oujzht not to complain of the result after election. Now is the llmo for them to nuke Ihclr protests against muchlno politics. What wo want ii men of Integrity , good business qualifications , and clear and Independent views. With such men In the council the taxpayers would fool perfectly safe. If our citizens want the city honestly and Intelligently governed they must ( Us- play a proper Interest and activity In the selection of men for the responsible posi tions. As n rule n respectable business man dislikes to bo a candidate for oflico nnlets ho knows that ho will have the hearty support of the better class , and not bo defeated by some ward politician and his following of bummers and hood lums. Wo believe , however , that in the coming campaign the respectable men of this city will take an active Interest In the selection of candidates , and If so wo predict that 'Omaha will have a clean handed administration throughout for the next two years. THE Episcopalians of Nebraska at last have a bishop , llov. Dr. Worthlngton , who was consecrated at Detroit on Tues day , and Is expected in Omaha at an orrly day. Dr. Worthlngton is a native of Massachusetts , having been born at Lennox , in that state In 1842. Ho at tended Hobart college , at Geneva , N. Y. , and In 18C3 ho graduated from the Gen eral Theological seminary , at Now York , in 18G3. His Drat cxporioncojfn the minis try was at Troy , N. Y. , where ho was stationed for eighteen months , but his first regular parish was at Bala ton Spa , where ho remained until 1808 , when ho nccopted a call to St. John's parish in Detroit. Dr. Worthinjjton has boon the rector of that parish for seventeen j earn , and has endeared hlmcolf to the hearts of his parishioner ! and the people generally of that city , and particularly to the poor , for whom ho hss done a great deal. Dr. Worthington Is quite an eminent scholar , and has twice vleited the old world and the Ho'y Land. Five years ago ho re ceived quite a largo number of votes for the bishopric of Eastern Michigan , to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Bishop McCoskry , but BhhopHarrls was finally elected. In 1883 , Dr. Worthlng ton was elected bishop of Shanghai , but declined. The Episcopal people of Ne braska are to be congratulated upon hav ing finally succeeded in securing his ser vices aa bishop. It was with consider able difficulty that he was induced to accept the honor , and ho only did so after having twlco been elected. WHEN the present congress adjourns It will leave a mountarn of unfinished but- Inesj. The calendars of the house covci seventy-eight printed pages , and the bills number nearly 1,100. Thcto bills will die with the present session , but ol course msny will bo revived at the noxl session when they will again bo printed , lumber up the calendars , occupy the time of the committees , and finally most ol them will be once mora consigned to the dead pile. There are now on the calon darof the committee of the whole 19r bilk ; house calendar lG9 ; private caloiv dar 415. On the speaker's table there are 258 aenato bills and eleven honst bills , which the aen to passed witl amendments. Two years have been con aumed In preparing these 'measures foi the action of the house , and It woulc seem that they should bo disposed of Ir a business-liko manner. The rules It any event should enable a majority t < transact any bnslness having duo reguc for the rights of the minority. Undei the present system however , it is wlthir the power of one man , by a single ob jectlon , to prevent the majority from anj consideration of any measure out of thi regular order. THE defeat of Kehoo's bill requiring the railroads to furnish donblo-dockec cars , was an outrage. Under the pres ent system the shippers of hcgj and aheo ] cannot ship mora thau ton thousam ponnds of sheep or hogs Tthllo twentj thousand pounds of cattle can ha abippcc In a car , for about the tame prico. Thi discrimination makes it almost imposslbli for sheep-raisers to ship their sheep ti market. East of Chicago doublo-deckci oars are furnished by nearly all the rail roads , and there Is no good reason wh ] the railroads of Nebraska ahould not b compelled to do the tame thing. Bnt i seems that any railroad legislation h Nebraska Intended simply to do justice t the people ii doomed to defeat , particu ] arly if the senate has the power to ben It , as it did In this case , IN the Swalni court-martial George Boutwoll objected ta the designation c , * witness on the record as "colored , , Ho took the ground that this word aftc the name of a witness Is an Invldlot distinction , nnd that the drawing of tli color line in tbtit or any other wty in th c urts ought to bo done away with. Tli friends of the cause of equal rights , an particularly the colored people , or rathi ' the frcedtnon , will DO doubt thank M Dontvroll far hla aorvicea on this point. ka IF Mr. Prltohett wants to bo the ne : nt United States district attorney ho betti iid come home from Lincoln as quickly i no the railroad will carry him. His offer ut to assist the tax shlrkors and street ral way coapany to dufeat the new chart ils are liable to prove a boomerang for hit ur AH the Inture prosecuting attorney , 1 he will find that his skirts , which were sell < Inthe Holly waterworks scheme , will n bo ai clear AS even unfiltered Mhsou ta- river water , ey TiiEPlattsmoath Journal HHSB to su Ccjt to the derarcnts of that city t ] propriety of taking neiiiio stops to cele- hrato the actssion of their parly to power in the nntirnal government. The Omaha Herald will not make any sugges tion to the democrat ! of this city until after Dr. Miller's accession to the office of P. M. G. In that event the democrats of Omaha and Nebraska , among whom all is harmony , will hayo a great jamboree. THOMAS Jm-EiisoNspont In ono year § 2GG8 for wine , and $100 for washing during the same period. The democrats , who have been commending JeiTcrsoulsn simplicity , are at a loss to understand why ho tpsnt so much for washing and so little for wlno , They think Jofl'oreon must have boon a very simple man in deed. KANSAS Cm , where civil service ex animations are to bo hold on the 2 Hh of March , is only 200 mites from Omaha , bnt some of our democratic place-hunters will probably find that the soft positions which they are after ate a great deal farther away thau that. CIVIL service examination ] will be held at Kansas City on March 24th. Mcan- tlmodcmccratlc place-hunters of Nebraska will do well to attend night school. THIS touch of spring-like weather is a gentle reminder that the city election la not far off , and that it is about time to stir up local polit'ci ' , Stiiircinc Court , Nebraska , February 21 , 1H85 , Whitman VP. sfntc.

There are ono hundred end three col ored men in Washington who are worth over $25,000 each , lifty two worth $10 , . 000 each and nearly ono thousand who pay taxes on 55,000 each. Gcorgo W. Williams , ex-member of the Ohio assem bly and author of a history of the colored race , Is worth 8-10,000. Frederick Doug las has $300,000 and now lives in and owns a house opposite Washington form erly owned by a man who so hated the blacks that ho refused to sell anything to ono of them , John J. Cooke , tax col lector of tlio Dlitrict of Columbia , him self pays taxes on § 250,000. John M. Lsngston , United States minis ter to Day ti , has S7COCO. John Lynch of Mississippi , who presided so ably at the Chicago convention Ja > t tummer , is very wnaltby. So Is Congressman Small ? .

Ho WAS once a slave , and , ragged and barefooted , followed Sherman and his troopi in their march to the sea. Cin cinnati has a colored furniture dealer whoso check is goad any day for $100- 000 , although twonly-hvo years ao ho was a Kentucky slave. The late llobcrt Gordon of Cincinnati , owned tlilrty four- story residences at the time of his death. 1'ho Meanest Man in The meanest man In Washington , if not iti the world , is a certain congress man. In the frosty ilca cf last Novem ber ho endeavored to persuade the dear , plain , good woman who had aha rod his early joys and sorrows , and probably made him all ho is , tint it wouldn't bo worth her whllo to como on to Washing ton this Bcasjii. The short season end high rates of living worn argued in vain , till ho adduced as a clincher the promise of a seal-skin cacque , which ho would bring horiu the spring if she would agree to remain cooped up in their bleak county - t-y homo all winter. Of course , the wtfo , balng bnt a woman , contented. Well , ho bought the uoahkin ai soon as ho got there , and just to keep the moths out has porcuadod a plump and pleasing young person to wear It around to divers and sundry theatres and operas , cozy little dinners , drives , and slolgh-ridos. Now that the congressional jig is nearly up the young person Is in no hurry to divest herself of the sealskin , and the diitlngnlshed Solon himself is convinced that the Interests of the country demand an extra session. " On Top Once More. , In hla long acrobatic carder the stock gambler Keene has performed many curious feats. Ho has been up among the millions and down among the dead men several times , bnt ho never stays hi any place long. From milk-peddling he took to school-teaching , and next ap peared In the Constock speculation , out of which ho emerged with a fortune anywhere whore from $10,000,000 to $15,000,000. Fearing hojwould bo cleaned out in Cali fornia DO wont to Now York , and at that time ho was known to have been worth § 5,000,000. Ho got in on the rise and rapidly increased his fort- tnno. Then ho undertook to buck against the wheat crop of the west , but It was too much for him. The stock gamblers also jumped on him , and a year ago bo hid down and confessed himself broke Then every ono forgot him. In his se clusion , however , he improved his oppor tunities , and getting a little money to gether ho took a venture In petroleum , which resulted so well that the other day the people who had forgotten him found him on Wall strost again raking in his millions. Of course It is only a question of time how soon ho will be jumped on and go down again ; bnt , meanwhile , bo ia having lota of fan in his acrobatic business. A Fancy Olmjipy'n Jargon.
