JJM KKXXX , the famous wheat king , : > has failed for a Jarge amount. - "IT ifytinderstood , " "we understand , " I * the trajr the rural -editor now puts it. JOHN M. THTJRSTON of Omaha , N. S.

' * " * CHAELBS FORD , one of the murderer of Jesse "James , committed suicide , Tuesday , by shooting himself through the heart. Various causes for his act are assigned. He was an habitual mor phine cater. MORRISON'S tariff bill went to its- ' death. Wednesday morning. * Despite the energetic efforts of Blackburn and Morrison , the author of the bill , the enacting clause of the same was strick en out , on motion of Co'nvcrse-jdemocrat of Ohio , amidst a storm of hisses , by a vote of 15G to 153. DR , GROSS , probably the most emi nent surgeon this country has ever had , died.oh'Tucsday.- had out-Jived the time allotted to man some years , and had retired from the active duties of pro.- fessor of surgery in Jefferson "College , long since. He received more honorary degrees in * this country and abroad than any other American. THE announcement of the failure of the Marine National Bank of New York city , liabilities nearly $1,000,000 , also the banking firm of Ward & Grant , in which U. S. Grant was interestedclosed on Tuesday. The General's loss by the failure of his son and partner is placed at a cool quarter of a million. JJoth of these firms were supposed to be very strong. Financial matters need some straightening out and bolstering up in Wall street. THE Union Pacific railroad company is now taking another method of reduc ing its expenses.- Nearly one-half of its section hands have been discharged within the past few days , and it is an nounced that the force in the shops will also be diminished. This will be quite as disastrous to workingmen as a body as a reduction , but no one expects a railroad company to employ men that it does not need and it is to their own interest to retain a sufficient force. Topics. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ NOTWITHSTANDING the Iowa prohi bitory -laWjUhe Collector of Internal Revenue at Davenport has issued over 400 United States licenses for the sale - of liquor , ale , wine and been Nearly 100 of the licenses Jiave been taken out in Davenport. Collector Simpson of Dubuque district , says that fully nine- tenth of-the saloon-keepers - there have renewed there licenses. This looks as though the liquor men propose to do business under the United jStates laws , and pay no attention to the state pro hibitory law. Bee. THERE is something touching in the tone of "the dispatch which informed us Tuesday that Michael Davitt has aban doned politics , and will go to Australia. It seems to be a succinct account of the termination of a man's life-work a work that is far from completion ] and to those who have an atom of sympathy ; for a man whose disinterested and pat riotic course has won for him the admi ration of the civilized world , the an nouncement will come with" force akin to severity. Mr. Davitt's record is an enviable one. He has been honest , , courageous , , and withal sagacious , and * it will ever be regretted that latterly his judgement impelled him to a view ; of the Irish question , that was some what at variance with the plans of Mr. ParnelL Together they "have worked for the disenthrallment of their people worked in a manner that i * especially-to IH > commended at this time , when the fcolkardy O'Rossas are pursuing a course that can only work damage to a just eausc.

Kcp'ublicau. - TIIE bill wJiich Senator "Van Wyok introduced Monday toj prevent foreign ownership of American land , strikes right at the root of a great evil. The country is threatened with a land mo nopoly , which\will be as oppressive as the laud monopoly of Ireland has been. Gfcnt tracts of the best lands in the west have been taken possession of by foreign corporations for mere specula tion. Thousands of actual settlers have in this way been prevented , from ob taining farms. This has undoubtedly greatly hindered the settlement * and progress of the northwestern territories. Unless it is stopped it will paralyze the development of some of the most prom ising regions. The corporations who gobble up these lands have no justfright to them. They are simply combinations of money sharks abroad who want to grasp the last possible cent out of their bargains. The lands of , any country should be possessed by its own citizens. It is plain on the face of it , as the Bee has previously pointed out , that if they pass into the hands of foreigners who have no other interest in them than to make money out of them , danger is in curred. Congress can do nothing better for the interests of the country than sto put that danger out of the way as soon as possible. There ought to be no hesi tation about passing thisbill. . Public safety from grinding monopoly demands it. Bee. A BOSTON paper intimates that a syndicate , representing a hundred mil lions of dollars , has been formed in that city to utilize a 'wonderful invention made by a Boston man , whercby'the telegraph , telephone and electric light will be consolidated and all run at the small cost of an ordinary telegraph bat tery. For the light the claim is made that sunlight will be transmitted direct ly from those regions where old Sol is shining , to those under the shade , and so the machine can be used reciprocally by opposite sides , of the earth. In other words that electricity will be used to transmiflight vibrations as it is now for sound vibrations. This done the only remaining feat for the establish ment of a complete correlation of forces will be an arrangement for transmitting heat and warming a room in Nebraska from a central grate in New York or Pennsylvania saving the shipment of coal. Journal. THE residents of Manitoba are struir- - gling with the .Hudson Bay route to Europe again , and a committee of their legislature is trying hard to make them believe that it is feasible. This committee tee has procured evidence going to show that the route is open four months in the year , and is 570 miles shorter than the way by Montreal , and 1,050 shorter than by New York. A railroad can easily .be built from Winnepeg to the Bay , and then , the Canadians think , they will be-free from their present subserviency to the Canadian Pacific monopoly and the extensions of the American railroads.No doubt this would be a great relief to the oppress ed people of the province , but it will be hard to show that a railroad built through a region of almost perpetual snow and ice , and a steamship line through a route frozen up eight months in the year arc practicable things. NOTHING that has been done in the way of national legislation for a long time will be regarded with 'so much favor by the people of this part of the country as the bill just passed-by the senate estab lishing a bureau of animal industry , hav ing for its object the extirpation of con tagious diseases among cattle. The bill s comprehensive in its provisions , hav- ng been drafted with theadvice _ of men vho have given years of experience to he cattle interests of the country , and lims to cover all that has been suggested iither by practice or theory. To the nen who have built up the great cattle anches of Nebraska , Wyoming , Colorado rado and Utah , it will prove a'measure , h"e pecuniary advantages of which can- lot be estimated , while by the feeders if our own state it will be welcomed as omething thay have long desired ; THE exact nature of the Coeur d'Al " ine mines will be definitely known pret- y soon. A returned miner writes to a 5an Francisco paper that if there ever eas such a "damnable fraud got up on ] ie face of God's earth" as the excite- ncnt over these mines , he has not heard ) , if it. He adds that when be left there rere "hundreds of poor devils begging read. " This shows how easy it is to > cet up a big boom On nothing. It is : ust so iu politics. > > SENATOR VAN WYCK has introduced bill to restrict the privileges of for- * ligncrs in the acquisition of public and : : . CHICAGO is astonishedUit the singu lar conduct of a St. Louis man who ( recently got caught in the turn of the pulley about the stock market and found himself unable for a few days to liquidate his balances. A good deal' of his indebtedness was to Chicago' parties and they at once offered to set tle -with him if he would pay thirty- three and a thir J per cent. He de clined. Now he has sent his creditors a circular telling them to draw on him' for the full face of their demands as he is prepared to pay one hundred cents for every one of th& 600,000 dollars he owes. They do not exactly call him a lunatic for they think a man is born queer who lives in St Louis , but if.he . were a resident of Chicago his fannly would hustle him into ail insane asylum as soon as a jury had time to sit fifteen minutes on his case. Journal YOUNG Theodore Rosevelt has suc cessfully fought five1 of his * reform bills for. New York city through the New York legislature , against the strong corruption element. These bills arc regarded as the promise of better government. Their passage is hailed as a.great victory fcr the better ele ment in New York politics. Where is the Theodore Roosevelt who will reform the abuses which the railroad corporations have fastened upon Ne braska. Bee. THE talented mathematicians of journalism are pursuing us with their tables , world without end. They run well together this time , being only two hundred votes apart on the gen eral average. It must be confessed that the Arthur boomers kick a little higher than the Blaine boomers , and this straw is given for what it is worth. FiTZGKRATDa NewYork alderman , has vindicated his official position by beating Rowell , and the best time ever made up to date , as a pedestrian. He .walked 610 miles in six days. Now let Boston make John L. Sulli van an elderman or forever hold her peace. _ _ _ IT is calculated that there are .now residing iu the United States nearly a thousand Japanese , and of this number it is said that not one has ever been- convicted of any criminal offense in an American court. SENATOR EDMUNDS is 50 years old , and has a giant frame as well as a gi gantic mind. He appears cold and dig- jiified in public , but is genial in compa ny with his friends.
