" " " ' ' 4- NATIONAL politics is so absorbing as to exclude state , district or county pol itics entirely. "Wemight add materially to the latter without seriously detract ing from the former. JAMES 0. BI.AINE is energetically lengthening his pole so as to be able to knock the persimmons in June. Sam- tic ! J. Tildcn of Grammwcy Park seems to be the "Bourbon pet for presidential honors. JUDGES WAKELY and SEVILLE de cided , yedncsday of last week , that $1,000 must be paid for licences in cities of the first class , and this decision practically does away with issuing li censes for less than a year , a thing of very general practice heretofore. THE falling off in the internal reve nue for the first nine months of the present fiscal year in consequence with the acts reducing the tax on tobacco and sundries , is about twenty millions. The indications are , therefore , that the entire shrinkage for the year will be about twenty-seven millions. THE figures on presidential candi dates , given by the Chicago Times , are as follows : Arthur , 226 ; Elaine , 19G ; Edmunds , 49 \ Logan , 47 ; John Sher man , 22 ; Hooley , 12 ; doubtful , 33. We wonder how many Ches. will.have on the first ballot June 3d ? GENERAL JOSEPH K. HAAVLET , of Connecticut , a gallant soldier and an honest statesman , has been declared the favorite son of the nutmeg state and the Republican convention at Hartford has instructed the delegates elect to present his name if it seems opportune , at any time in the course of the pro ceedings of the Chicago convention. A TERRIBLE cyclone struck James town , Ohio , about five o'clock , Sunday afternoon. Two-thirds of the town was completely ruined , and six persons killed : -Miss Stella Jones , aged 15 , of Esculopia SpringSjKy. ; Mrs. Anna Carpenter - penter ; Letitia Jenkins , daughter of G- . K. Jenkins ; Miss Kate "BoJeber ; Mrs. Stewart , a colored woman ; an da son of James Powell. Several were badly wounded , and hundreds of people are homeless. THERE is but little doubt in the world that Hastings will some time be" the second city in the state if the proper efforts are made to secure that end. Her geographical situation is just right for that Anpther railroad or two will give the city a boom that will put her beyond the reach of a rival outside of Omaha. That we can secure these nec essary additional railway facilities is as certain as that the citizens make the attempt with the energy and liberality that generally characterizes what they try to accomplish. Gazette-Journal. The Gazette-Journal must have got ten a new subscriber to have called forth such a well we won't name it. \ THOS. NAST'S carricature of the Iroquois - quois Club is good. In the back-ground stands Pendleton reading his Phillipic against the spoils system , and in the room is the table turning over , the bottle tle tumbling down , and the Iroquois braves dodging under the table. Pen dleton seems to have hit them square in the face , when he declared against "the'spoils doctrine as taught and prac ticed by the democrats. Gazette Jour nal. It" strikes us that it has been al most a quarter of a century since our bourbon friends have had an opportu nity to practice extensively , and that in the interim , the republicans have been putting themselves in shape in the same manner rather successfully. As soon as Frank James was acquit ted at Huutsville , he was hustled off to Missouri where another farce of a trial awaits him , when he has been again vin dicated by a jury of his admiring com patriots there , it is said that he will be taken to Minnesota to answer for the Northfield bank robbery in which he was engaged. The people of Minnesota are known to b3 ardent admirers of ban dits and murderers and there is some doubt whether the great man will safely pull through the coming ordeal and gome of the other thugs who took part in the atrocious crime for which James is to be tried are now at hard labor in the Minnesota penitentiary. There is some feeling in the vicinity of North- field that James ought to be tried by * judge lynch. T 4-i many fool editors as any state in this glorious union of ours among its "metropolitan doilies. " The Omaha Republican' , over which presides Fred. Kye , who has been indiscriminately at tacking Republicans of , this state , who dared to differ from his political views , has finally met the wrong man in the person of ex-Seimtor A. S. Paddock. Mr. Paddock , after spanking the "in sufferably egotistic little nuisance" quite soundly , .administers the follow ing : "Would it not be well for you to go a little slower , lest the Republican party , which is a great deal larger and stronger than a small editor , may "serve notice" on the Omaha Republican in some effective way , tliat this boy busi ness in connection with its editorial management is no longer endurable. Wrapped in the mantle of your intense conceit , , you may not understand it , but the sentiment pervades the Republican party very generally , in this state , that you , as an editor , are becoming an in sufferable little nuisance , and ought to be abated. " An editor who fearlessly condems wrong and applauds right com mands the admiration of all ; but Nye's policy is meeting as it of right ought to the severest condemnation. THE ground upon which Judge Po land , of Vermont , and a number of the House Judiciary Committee opposed woman's suffrage was stated in his re port. He said , "the office and duty which nature devolved upon woman during all the active and vigorous portion tion of her life would often render it impossible and still more indelicate , for her to appear and act in caucusses , con ventions or elections , or to act as mem ber of the legislature , or as juror or judge. I cannot bring myself to believe that any large portion of the intelligent women of this country desire any sucl thing granted , or they would perform any such duties if chance offered them. ' This expresses the whole matter in a very few words. As long as men clear headed enough to put the situation so tersely are on the judiciary committee , we fear the gentle Susan and her able companions will beseech in vain. Bee. BISMARCK has a very poor opinion of Mr. Gladstone's statesmanship. In fact he thinks little of any statesman that refuses to bow down to him. On the other hand he venerates the memory of Beaconfield , who was an imperialistand agreed with him that the people ought to be suppressed where ever it is possi ble and hoodwinked when they cannot be suppressed. So when an admirer of Beaconfield lately asked .him to write a memorial of the late premier he replied that he could not do so * without peril to the friendly relations of his government with England. It was a sarcastic cut at the liberal leader , whose statesman ship is as far removed from that which rules Germany with a hand of iron , as the north from the south pole. THE colored man is rapidly approach ing the standard of the white man , and it is only a question of time when he will be in every respect the white man's equal. Already the negroes of the south , following the example of the high-toned and hot-blooded whites of that section of the country , are resort ing to the duel to settle their differences of opinion. ' Two colored gentlemen while discussing the merits of the differ ent presidential candidates became en gaged in an angry controversy , and a challenge to fight a duel was the result. They were arrested just as they were about to spill each others blood , and one of them was found to have on two over coats and a sheet-iron plate fifteen inches square as a chest protector. IP the assurances of the Director General are well founded the coming New Orleans Exposition will be a great affair. He says that applications for space have already been received from more exhibitors than appeared at the Centennial Exposition ; that thirty acres will be covered by exhibitors , and in the whole it will be the biggest Exposition of the kind ever held in the world. Thirteen foreign nations will be repre sented , and those from. the. United States will occupy 800,000 pquure feet of room. The Exposition is hailed as a great factor in the social and industrial regeneration of the South. IT is reported in some quarters that Mr. Edmunds' boom has taken to itself new legs in consequence of a rumor that the eminent Vermonter is given to the habit of taking occasional "snifters" of brandy. There seems to be some dark and impenetrable mystery about this matter. Brandy we have heard of , but what is a'snifter ? " " iiK Southern papers have fouw another ground of complaint against the Blair educational bill. One of the provisions of the measure is that no state shall receive a greater amount of the sum appropriated than it at present devotes to educational pur poses. In order to realize the full benefit of the law , it will be necessary for several southern states to double the taxes now levied for schools. Georffiu rt , for instance , which now raises about $000,000 a year , will have to raise more than § 1,000,000. This dreadful prospect brings forth the most lugubrious wails from the people of these regions , as they con template the idea of devoting so much money to the useless purpose of edu cation. To people not quite benight ed , * however , to double the appropria tions for schools seems like a pretty good thing , and the fact that the Blair educational bill will force the senth ern slates to do this , is only another argument in its favor. Bee. THE Second Adventists now say the world has less than six months oi life. They claim that if certain prom inent men of this country are C9nvert- ed to their theory that that is conclu sive evidence of the certainty of then prophecies coming to pas's. " They further assert that they are now at work upon ex-President Hayes ant ! imagine they have about converted him to their doctrines. A POET hath remarked that"Al paths lead to the grave. " He un doubtedly referred to allopaths am homeopaths and hydropaths and the rest of the M. D. paths. Ocn druggist , Dr. S. L.
