CHAELBS FORD , one of the murderer

Tuesday , by shooting himself through
the heart. Various causes for his act
are assigned. He was an habitual mor

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

of Ohio , amidst a storm of hisses , by a
vote of 15G to 153.

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.

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

fcolkardy O'Rossas are pursuing a
course that can only work damage to a

- 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

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

corporations have fastened upon Ne

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.

IT is calculated that there are .now
