Tiiii Lincoln Journal says Chauncy
Wilse. having returned to Omaha to
live, that enterprising city is talking
of runuing him for mayor. If Chaun
cy will make Plattsmouth his head
quarters, the Herald will rise right
up and nominate him, and his hosts of
old friends here would elect him loo.
Would it not be a wise act upon
the part of our city authorities to
widnn the sidewalks upon Main street,
and put in gutters of sufficient capaci
ty to carry oil all surplus water. The
Herald would suggest that the gut
ters be not put in above the curb
stones ; it is not elevated gutters, but
old fashioned gutters with a hollow in
them that we need.

tho matter of distributing patronage,
and us '.he Hekald predicted some days

Ajax from the first and James Fitz

themselves to their congressional duties.
From the appointments already made
one cau see the young blood of our con
gressional delegation most unmistakably
showing itself. The appointments so
far, seem to be very commendable,
although it may be claimed by some
people, that in all cases, that strict fidel

which would cause 'the admirers of that
principal to rejoice and grow patriotic
kas not been observed.
Tint third annual report of the board
of fish commissioners was handed us
last evening by Gen. R. R. Livingston
(one of the commission erg) it being the
report of that board, for the .two year8
ending Dec. 31 1883. It appears from
the report ot the. board that during the
years 1879, '80, '81 and '82, alout eleven
million of California salmon have been
received for the state of Nebraska, of
which, some 885,000 have been success
fully hatched at their fishery at Sante
lake and distributed th-eughout the dif
ferent streams of the state. That the
board also received during this time
some 24,000 brook trout and some 1,500
German carp, the latter of which, have
been distributed among individuals, hav
ing ponds suitable for raising an j breed
ing purposes. The trout being at their
fishery yet.
The reports from the fry planted
throughout the state- are very flattering.
The board - of commissioners consist
of Gen'i. "It. Ft. Livingston, of Platts
mouth, Hon. B. K. IS. Kennedy, of
Omaha, aud Hon. Wm . L. May, of Fre
mont, Nebraska.

In speaking of the late legislature
and its failure to come up to the ex
pectations of the public, the Omaha
Republican bits the nail on the head,
as follows:
One thing is certain, that men elect
ed on a hobby issue of any sort do not
make the best, material for the general
good. When we begin to elect men
for their general fitness, for the stand
ing the? have gained in their several
professions, for their thorough rc-lia
bility as citizens, then und not till then,
way we expect sound and judicious
law making. Further comment is un
necessary at this time.
' Senatcr "Van Wyck's pension bill
lias passed the senate. This measure
increases the pensions of soldiers, who
have lost a hand or foot in the service,
from 318 to $24 a mouth, and those
who have lost a leg or arm to 8:30 a
month. This increase will be g'ener
ally approved. Such disabillity deser
ves a liberal pension, as does every
genuine disability received in tbe ser
vice, lo survivors of actual injuries
t be govern meat and the people are not
disposed to be stingy. It is only a hrst
of fraudulent pensioners' that have
made many of our people doubt the
wisdom of their past generosity. O.
liee.
After the smoke had cleared away
from the House of commons, and the
public h id taken time to breathe, and
think twice over the charges made by
Mr. I ostpr against Parneil ami hiseol-
leagues, th'-general opinion f-eems to
lie, that Mr. Parneii's calm demeanor
under the ' terrible chatties made
against hi:n by the government, was
that of a cohsumate lea ;er, and that
had he given way under the torrentjf
abuse, or lost control. oJLbims-lf in the
debate, bis case would have. been seri
oufilj imperiled. As it is, no .one
scarcely, believes that Mr. Parneil or
the land league had anything to do
with, or any knowledge of the plot to
assassinate the bead official of the gov
ernment in Ireland..

truth is, their female employes earn
from eight to nine dollais p"r week,
aud their male labores from ten to

came from English factories and the

Another venerable fossil' of this
school, is congressman' J Ji. Tucker, of
Virginia, who has discovered the true
democratic argument againsl protec

though there has never been a ti ine in
the history of our government under

tariff ha.s not been laid for the pro

here comes an apostle, who in his -zeal
to overthrow the doctrine of protec
tion, discovers it is unconstitutional;
this ought lo end the controversy, and
place the democratic party on tlie ever
lasting rock of abjolute free trade,
there with the white garments of the
constitution wrapped around it, that
party would be relieved from portray
ing to the laboring classes of this coun
try, the happy, prosperous condition of
England's millions of fat, well paid.
