The present congress has given moro

Ices In action since January 1 , ISO" ,

charges , of retaining pay , nnd of
grantln j furloughs and rolcnscsnt the
end of the llilrd year oC cnlislinciit.
With regard to the measure conferring
lire vets , -vvhio livaa approved last Feb
ruary , it appears to 1mvocalled out a do-
mandfor the honorable recognition from
a host of social and political noUllers ,
and -\vhilo General Schollold after euro-
( til investigation lias recommended one
hundrud nnd fifty nainos as entitled to
the brovrst , the president has not nctcd
upon them ami very llkoly will noc dur
ing the present session ofcongress.
Ono of the most Important measures
agreed to by both the liousos Is that for
llnonl promotion , \vhiuli has been under
consldoratlon for a nuniboi- years. It
that Instead " * "
provides of"conllnlng"iiro-
motions of lieutenants of the line to the
reglinuntln whicli the vacancy occurs ,
when u iirst , 1 icuteriarrev Is lofb vacant
In an Infantry regiment it will bo filled
by thosoeond lloutoniintof infantry high
est inratik , to whatovorrogimontho may
belong. The same rule will apply to
ai-tillery and cavalry. Lineal promo
tion will ho the rule ainotif ? subaltoms ,
as now among hlglier ollluors up to the
grade of ponoral olllcor , which will re
sult in moro frequent eliatifjcsof lieuten
ants from post to post. It Is provided
that ofllccra shall pass an examination
buforo promotion , thus com polling them
to study and kcop up with their profes
sion , slncotwo successive falhtrosvlll
cause them to bo dropped , or if the dis
ability is physical to bo put on tbo re
tired list , only these wlio served In the
civil war being exempt from this.
Another measure of Importance em
powers tlio president to fix a maximum
punishment for all military olTonsos now
loft to the discretion of courts-martial ,
thus In elToet giving the army a penal
code. A. law of this kind was advocated
by tliondjutuntgotiernlof thoiirmy in his
last report , and the best military
authorities nro agreed as to its desira
bility. 1'ho ' act entitling ; enlisted men
lo count war scrvico as double tlrao to
ward retirement will benefit a consider
able number of them , The liousoon
Monday agreed to the conference report
on tlio bill to increase the clllcioncy of
the blfjnal corps of the sirniy and transfer
the -vroatlicr bureau to the agricultural
department , the ehtin o to tnlfo elTect
Juno KO of next year. The signal corps
will bo organized on a somewhat smaller
scale for army purposes alone , Kaeh
house has passed other measures ori , 'in-
iitlng with it , niiionK1 them the senate
bill to revive the grade of lieutenant
goncrali , but most of these -\vlll go over
to tlio noXl session. As It Is , however ,
the jeni- will bo si memorable one for
congressional attention to.jthe interests
of the army.
AN VA'JUST
Tlio Philadelphia Joicn'ccui Is dis
posed to make light ot that "fraction of
humanity" which destiny and an enter
prising spirit has located in the great
northwest , and whoso representatives In
congress have for months boon battling
vrltli'tho sol fish monopolistic manufac
turers of Iho east for , a just nnd fair
treatment ,
Who constitutes "my people ? " It asks
ot Senator Allison , and directly proceeds
to read him a lecture on his duties as a ,
United States senator , The Amcritan ,
would have state lines obliterated , so
far as the legislative work of the senate
Is concerned , when Pennsylvania is 'In
terested. 1 1 Insinuates tliat Allison .and
tbo other western men who liavo all
along Insisted that bindingUvino should
bo put on the free list , have bocnand are
simply truckling to constituent clamor ,
while all the tlmo they know It would bo
bad policy to do so. How orwhy bad
policy ? Wore the tariff people of Penn
sylvania particularly Interested in the
nuuiufnctnro ot binding tvine , or did
they fear the defeat of the bill In its en
tirety If nil the "interests" of
all the manufacturing slates were
not protected ? The tuicricnn's im
peachment of Senator Allison , Senator
Paddock and other western representa
tives is unfair , und unropubllcan ,
\Vhilo It may bo true , sis the -A m-
Ciu says , "every member has upward of
a sixty million constituency , " the sena
tors , who , for years , have represented
Pennsylvania have not boon noticed to
lool ( across tlio boundary Hues of their
state , unless perhaps to promote the in
terests of the coal barons and Iron mill
monopolists.
It Is expected , of course , that western
senators nnd congressmen shall legislate
for the whole country on purely national
measures ami Issues , liut they are also
expected to oppose unyrnul nil measures
that are designed to enrich any section
of the country or any class to tlio detri
ment of their own states and constituen
cies , The east has no right to demand
that representatives of the west shall
help to build up the east at the expense
Of tlio WQ.it.
THE Fid -KJ.UASr
The periodical campaign njralnst
Tammany by the lesser democratic or
ganisations of Now York City Is now in
progress , and the usual predictions nro
boinu made that the powerful cabal will
bo beaten and crushed If tlio campaign is
conducted -with intelligence , sagacity
and energy. Hut the trouble hns alyrnys
been that these essential qualities do not
exist In sulnclont degree , or it Is impos
sible to bring them together , outsldo of
Tammany. That organization not only
has the Bbrqwdost nnd the most un
scrupulous politicians In Jfow YorU , but
they are bold together. All good citi
everywhere would haglud to ice
this powerful , corrupt , nnd dun porous
tirgjinl/.titloti overthrown , nnd possibly
the tlmo will como when 11 will moot
that fate , but the democrats who
are now arrayed ajialhst it , mainly
for the rcanon that they ciinnotgot Into
It , am not thomnnto achieve Its over
throw , nor Is it by any moans certain
that they would Improve tlio st tun lion if
tboj obtained the power they covet.
Thu fact that n democrat isat var vllli
Tammany docs not necessarily prove
him honest or patriotic. It may be ovl-
denco that hols neither.
Tammany js thoroughly Intrenched in
all the municipal departments of Now
VorkCityandlts political inachlnor-y has
hover worked moro smoothly and effect
ively , according1 lo tlio best testimony ,
than at present. Jt maintains its wonted ,
rig-orousdisclpllno , and it hns all Iho
mesins of success at command. Its ene
mies have none of these. Mucli , tliore-
fore , us the overthrow of Tammany Is to
bo desired , there BCOWS o\en less likeli
hood of Its bolny accomplished thla year
than in the nast. This fact is to bo ro-
grcltod not alone for Es'ow "York City , but
for the entire country.
TilK SKdL ,
, The senate on Monday adopted a reso
lution calling on Iho president for copies
of all orders and Instructions since
March 1 resecting tlio regulation of the
seal fisheries of Alaska or Hohringsea.
Of coui-bo it Is not expected that this in
formation will bo supplied at the pres
ent session , but it will doubllcsi bo
ready by the tlmo congress reconvenes ,
BO thnl if It is deemed necessary to take
any now action by congress as to this
matter it can bo talcqn before tlio scaling
season of nest year opens.
The correspondence between Secretary
131ilne and Lord Salisbury showed a
strained situation which the " \Vnsliing-- \
ton government probably deemed it
c.x-pcdiunt to relieve , and ills understood
to liavo ordered the suspension for a
thnoof the strict enforcement of its scal
ing1 regulations and the capture of Urit-
ish vessels engaged In the trade ,
IIow far it went In this respect
Is the Information desired by tlio senate ,
because tbo result has been to fill llohr-
Ing son , with poachers who have been
slaughtering the seal In tlio most reck
less manner , shooting four times as
many as they ba\o been alilo to secure.
The most -vigorous part of Secretary
BI nine's argrmnont was directed against
the policy which encouraged this de
struction of the seal , and lie appealed to
the British government to consider the
necessity for both nations lo aid inputting
putting- stop to a practice which if con
tinued vouldeventually oxlormlnuto the
seal. This - waswithout oiled , however ,
upon Lord Salisbury , who strenuously in
sisted upon non-lntorforcnco by the
United States -with. British subjects
scaling- Bchring sea , and virtually re
fused to consider nny other part of the
subject. It would then seem to have
been decided by the Washington gov
ernment to modify its instructions , with
the Inevitable result of 10111118:111 : a host
of poachers who have inlliclcd great
damage.
Ills desirable that the country sliould
bo informed regarding the orders and
instructions of tlio executive branch of
the government in this matter , in order
that public sentiment may bo invoked to
determine tlio future policy to bo pur
sued by the United States in the contro
versy. If there isright inthc claimthis
government mnltes to jurisdiction over
Bohring sea it should bo maintained ,
whatever the consequences , but if it is
not founded in right and justice the
sooner It is given up the bolter. Tlio
concessions which liavo for years boon
made to the British government while
all the tlmo insisting that our claim is
just , have Ijeon humiliating to the na
tion , and to find the present adminis
tration , ns is apparently the case , following
lowing- tills respect the course of its
predecessor , Is extremely disappointing ,
IT is to bo liopcd the council will
stand firm for tho.liro limit extension ,
The I i mo has come fora radical choclt
on the erection o frame buildings.
"While the city has grown marvelously
in population , expanded her commercial
territory and trebled her industries in
live years , the fire limits hnvo remained
practically unchanged. In this respect
Omaha is behind every western city
of consequence. The fire limits of Denver -
vor include-tho entire city , nnd to the
wisdom of that net the city is indebted
for Its solid , compact arid Impressive ap
pearance. KansasClty , St , PnulundMin-
iioapol is have steadily oxtcndedtheir fire
limits , and thus protected liberal builders -
ors from the flrotraps of penurious
neighbors. The council will make no
mistaken ! extending the fire limits , On
the contrary the measure will provo an
incentive to permanent investment , and
steadily on lianco the value of projxjrly ,
Tim Uvo glastlcutuses are by no moans
the worst feature of the city liall building -
ing , Those monstrosities can Und doubt
less will bo chipped off In the duo
course of thno , but the whole stone front
above the granite base appears to bo an
abortion. Iho Idea of building- three
hundred nnd fifty thousnnd dollar public
building with a six-lncli veneering oj
sttmo strikes any man who knows any
thing about fire-proof building aa ut
terly indefensible. A lira-proof stone
front should not boa more sham. .A
plain pressc.il brick front would have
been preferable. In every respect. But
wliero is the building committee of the
council ? So far us wo can learn they
have scarcely looked at the building
since the Dodlin grnnlto contract was
let.
Hf Omaha began viaduct building ,
the wooden strucluroon Sixteenth street
was classed as a makeshift , while the
iron structure on Eleventh street wns
deemed a permanent highway. Meas
ured by first coat and the cost of repairs ,
the timber structure hns proven the
most prolltnUa Investment. It does not
brag on its shape , nor did tlio contrac
tor carve his name on the piers and
girders , Despitothoso drawbacks It con
tinues business without n moment's loss
uud makes no drafts on the public treas
ury.
Wiry don't ' the school board proceed
with their building , permit or 110 per
mit ? The building inspector lias no
right to rofuK ) ) i < im. a permit by order
of the council. IHe his duty tooboy the

lie persists In rtfUuinf , the permit , lot
him airost thd Contractor , nnd wo
should Hko tjj pco the jury that
would convict him-.uf an ofTomo against
Iho building ordinance. Hut there Is no
necessity even pt fts going to a police
court trial. The UJLEOS can bcnpiwuled
for every com unit mndo ly the inspector

SCAiicni/y a wcijk passes without com
plaints bolng made concerning the lack
of medical attendance at the city jail ,
Tlio clly pays a salary of twenty-four
hundred a year to a physician , vho is
required to attend to all sick prisoners ,
ycl tills duty is neglected. The com
pensation given the city pliynielan la
certainly sulllcleiit to command Ills entire -
tire time , and Insure prompt medical aid
to suffering prisoners ,
WK shall presently discover wliothcr
the city council , to satisfy a petty spite ,
