OUR journalistic brethren of the
Arupahoc papers are having a monkey
and parrot fight as to the authorship
of an article recently copied by them
.from THE TRIBUNE eans credit. The
kettle cannot consistently call the po
black.
DENVER , Colorado , has been postur
ing before the country as the fortunat
abode of countless millionaires who
scatter their riches lavishly for thi
good of the community. The tax as
sessor has been tiying to hunt them
down for the past month or two , and
he has yet to find a Denver man who
will confess himself the owner of $100 ,
000 worth ot taxable effects.
THE Burlington proposes to contest
with the Northwestern for the trade of
the Niobrara country. Both roads will
tap that country next summer. Mean
time Omaha remains inactive between
these two cut-offs , and unless she build
a road of her own to the north and
northwest , she will not receive adollar's ,
worth of benefit from the trade of north
ern Nebraska. This is a matter that
ought to receive immediate attention at
the hands of our board of trade , and if
possible some steps ought to be taken
not only to protest the interests we
have but to acquire new tributary ter
ritory. Bee.
PROP. PERRY , the economist , pre
dicts that the Republican party will be
missing when the roll is called in 1888.
We fear the professor has been too
economical with that sterling principal
called truth or absurdly ignorant of
the qualities rf the average Republican.
Observe , that in the year of Our Lord
Eighteen Hundred and Eighty-Eight ,
the grand old party will come to the
front , re-jnvonated and re-inforccd ,
stronger and more combatutive than
ever. Purged and purified , in martial
array , tin * will do battle in a manner
that will not be indicative of any symp
toms of death.
THE rash to secure seats at the New
rj ' * * - / York Avenue Pre.sbyteii.ni church , in
Washington , of which Rev.Dr. William
Alviu Bartiett is pastor , and which
President Cleveland will attend , is some
thing unprecedented. The membership
of the society is very large , and vacant
seats command a premium. Pews that
could readily have been secured two
months ago for $150 per annum are
now eagerly snapped up at double that
sum , although the occupants will not
live here on an average of six months
in the year. Old mossback Democrats
who have not seen the inside of a church SIy
in a generation , are said to be among y
the most importunate of bidders.
S (
IT is announced from the seat of war
in Soudan , that El Mahdi will cease his
efforts to bag Gordon in Khartoum , ad T
mitting at last that he has a charmed se
life and cannot be taken or killed , and
will concentrate his efforts upon Don-
gola and endeavor to defeat Wolseley Ic
before he can effect a junction with cite
Gordon's forces. The new arena will
have many advantages to the Mahdi. n
He will probably make his attack in the to
worst part of the march , between the
river and Berber , where tjie invading of
army will take a short cut across the.
big bend. The desert is most deadly loul
in that region and the advantage will been ulG
on the side of the children of Sahara. G

IN a well written letter Mr. Blaine.
very properly withdraws from the suit
for libel which he brought last August to
against The Indianapolis Sentinel , ai.d in
everybody , irrespective of party , will be ed
glad that the last remnant of a dirty ,
scandal-breediujr campaign is done away so
with. Mr. Blame's reason , undoubted br
ly a correct one , for throwing 'up the po
prosecution , is that he would be uifable Sli
to obtain justice in a state like Indiana , ea
wlierc party lines are fo strongly drawn is
that they wmil 3 inure or less tend to sti
divert tiie law iVnti its true channel. In
The uiat'er is also o'such ! n delicate aud vo
family character that a refined nature Tl :
would ix-bcl iiiiuiiiat ai it in the
courts and suc-h a | > r cee'Iing would be en
distasteful tJ anybody but a scandalsni
mongor. Mr. Blaiise has refuted the ka
insinuations made against him by con- tin
vincing facts and figures and the better tin
elements of the public will be glad to Th

SENATOR COLQUITT of Georgia is of
the opinion tlut the South will bo pro
hibition before another presidential elec
tion. May the senator's voice be truly
prophetic. ' ,
Ouu democratic brethren , by the by ,

with rather more confidence than they
have suspended theni before their polit
ical hearth stones for these many years.
Postmaster General recommends
and the President approves the sugges
tion , to reduce the rates for local letters
from two to one cent. This would be a
popular movement , and it is thought
that the increased amount carried , would
prevent any loss of revenue from this
source.
NEW YORK is going to ask congress
to complete the pedestal for the Bar-
tholdi statue by an appropriation of
$100,000. Congressman Cox , who ar
gued against the wasting of the nation
al funds on the Ilennepin canal , is very
fierce for the appropriation for beauti
fying his adopted city.
ACCORDING to the computation of the
Revenue department , there were con
sumed in this country from June 1883
to June 1884 , fourteen gallons of beer
for every man , woman and child in the
United States. One million more bar
rels were consumed than during the
previous year ending with June 1883.
A bill has been introduced into the
Greorgia Legislature to prohibit the
naiiufacture and sale of liquor in that
state. Its course will be watched with
nnch interest , an3 it will probably
jecome a law. The present law of
Greorgia is practically a local option
a\v and the temperance sentiment is
itroiiff.
CHICAGO bases its claim as the sanita-
ium of the world on the fact that its
leath rate per 1,000 population islG.S ,
he lowest of the leading cities of the
Forld. Yet when a tug-boat or schoon-
sr stirs the placid bosom of Chicago riv-
r , bystanders plug their nostrils aud
uii for shelter. Chicago grows strQiig
nd fat on loud smells.
AN Arizona Democratic editor flings
Ins little pleasantry to the editor across
lie road from his office : "The mi.cer-
ble humpbacked scarecrow who tries

THE York Republican , in common
e presume with other papers , has re-
jived one of Rosey's circulars , and
leading weariness , lays down the gos-
2 ! as follows : Why , God bless your
ml. Mr. Piosewater , we wouldn' t trade

irt of bug , anyhow the kind whose
incestors rolled their redolent spheres

liat scorns to be the kind of a bug Roy -
y is with numerous attachments.
AN Arizona editor , after writing a
ader on the merits of a patent medi
ae , thus enlightens his readers on En-
ish politics : "Old Gladstone is tak-
g our advice , and is giving the aris-
erats fits. But he made a bad break
icn he concluded to spare the house
lord * : . We warn him that such a shil-
shally course won't do. Kick the
ds out of the upper house , and fill it
i with horny-handed sons of toil.
adstone means well , but he doesn't PJ

sn't much sand. "
THE New York Tribune undertakes
show the relative number of voters
each state at the last election eompar-
to the representation each has in con-
; ss , but from some inexplicable rea-
i or accident forgets to insert Ne-
iska in the list. Now it is quite im-
rtant that Nebraska should be noted ,
e cast last month 45,000 votes for
: h of her members of congress. She
at the head of the list , leading her PP
ongest competitors , Minnesota and 2
liana , by 7,000. They have 38,000
; es to show for each congressman ,
e average number of votes cast in
: h congressional district in the north-
i status was about 34,000 and in the
ithern states about 24,000. Nebras- tcOl
is therefore eleven thousand above

GENERAL GRANT has certainly been
very unfortunate in his business vent
ures. Besides all his other misfortunes ,
it will be remtmbered that the $450,000 ,
raised for him while he was general of
the ttrmy was invested by him in Long
Branch real estate , and lost it all ; and the
Grant & Ward failure is still fresh in the
public mind. His future financial outlook
is not very bright , and while refusing a
pension , we believe he would appreciate
being placed upon the retired list , and
it is hoped that congress will at least do
this for the gallant old warrior.
IT is suspected that Captain How-
gate , the defaulting signal service chief ,
is somewhere in Nebraska , and two de
tectives and a signal corps officer have
been sent from Washington to discover
his whereabouts and arrest him. Per
haps he is in Omaha , and if so our vig-
ilent police have an opportunity to dis
tinguish themselves by arresting him be
fore the Washington officers arrive. If
our police succeed they will be doing a
signal service , and at the same time
reap a good reward. Bee.
CALIFORNIA is the greatest wheat
state in the Union , and her crop this
year is the largest ever known. She has
increased her wheat acreage 1,000,000
acres in one year , and this season she
raised 58,420,188 bushels , an average
of 1G.4 bushels to the acre. Her total
wheat acreage is 3,587GG4 acres. Her
other cereal crops have yielded more
abundantly than ever before known in
the history of the state. California is
indeed the land of plenty this year.
THE popular vote for the Cleveland
ticket at the recent election was 4,913-
901 ; for the Blaine ticket , 4,847,659 ;
for the Butler ticket , 133,880 ; for the
St. John ticket , 150,033. Excess of
Cleveland over Blaine , GO , 242. Total
vote , 10,046,073. The total vote in 1880
was 9,218,251 , and the excess for the
Garfield ticket over the Hancock ticket
9,464.
CORRESPONDENTS at the national cap
ital are profuse in their writings about
the peculiarities of various and sundry
Senators , Congressmen , etal. , and they
now claim that David Davis is so fond
of machinery that he spends hours turn
ing a coffee-mill and wondering how it
: au be provided with return flues and a"
cut off.
IT is claimed that the Spanish treaty ,
f adopted , will cause an annual loss to
; he revenue of from $20,000,000 to
? 50.000,000. It occurs to us that it
vould be cheaper to buy Cuba at once
'or $50.000.000 , the reported .price
lemanded by Spain , than to enter into
my such treaty.

What R Kentucky Bnrjroo ! .
* [ Washington Cor. Philadelphia Record. ]
"If you should go out to Kentucky
about this time , ' ' said the old judge ,
"you would probably be invited to a bur
goo. You don't recognize him by that
name , do you ? No ? Well , a burgoo
( accent on the firaUjllablo , is aand ,
good tiling. It is an all-day picnic in
the woods , with a feast which throws
th < ! clam chowder and the barbecue into
tilts deep shade of obscurity. In fact the
burgoo usually includes a barbecue as a
sort of incident. You go out to a corner
of the woods , whore the thick under
brush has been carefully cut away , and
where there are trees enough for shade ,
but not enough for gloom , and there
you sit ! indplay poker and smoke the
finest tobacco in tiie world and drink
otly 10-year-old sour mash and .sniff the
delightful aroma of the burgoo until
along in the afternoon , when the nig-
geivi pronounce the burgoo ready and
ladle it out to you in big bowlfuls.
"The burgoo is a delicious broth which
is a perpetual' reminder of the aborigines
who handed it over lo our pioneering
forefathers when they began coming
across the mountains from Virginia.
You take or rather the darkies take
a gigntic ; : kettle and hang it over a roar
ing fire. A. light both : is made first ;
then they throw in young chickens ,
young ducks , sucking pigs , and all sorts
of small game , with fresh potatoes , green
peas , string beans , corn and every other
vegetable. Everything is cooked until
the meat begins to fall to pieces. Then
the waiters , with shining , smiling , black
faces and snow-white jackets and aprons ,
bear great bowlfuls of the toothsome
stew through the grove. Oh , how good
it isMy ! mouth wafers as I tell you of
it. Afterward there is more burgoo , and
then more burgoo , until everyuody has
actually had enough. Then' the darkies
satisfy themselves , while you return to
your pipe and your glass , until the
shadows of evening gather sleepily
iiround you. " If is vo.ce became low and
his look became dreamy. Suddenly he
roused himself , and remarked as ho
turned away : "A few weeks later the
darkies hold their camp meeting on the
same spot. "
The Cour.se of River * .
[ John Swinton's Papor. ]
What is the reason that Indo-China ,
which is more than half as large as
Critish Jndia , contains only 34,000,000
eople to the hitter's 250boO030 ? In
harbors , minerals and soil , Indo-China
s the eiual [ of British India. The sc
> ret is found in the course of the rivers.
[ n IndoChinathey run from north to
south. Unlike the dwellers by the
nnges , the Burmese and Siamese have
.j natural highways in the same lati-
uJo. From the heights of Yunnan to
he torrid delta of the Mekong , the
: hange is so rapid that climate itself
iceps the different tribes separate and
lOotiic. This effect is not produced by
; ho course of the Kile , which , ilowing
lorth from the equator , keeps an equai
emperature throughout.
In our own country one sees many ex-
imples of this great law of migration.
In traveling due west from a Con-
iccticut village to the Mississippi , except
hat yon have grown fat and caught the
igue , you hardly seem to have changed
'our domicile.
This law explains the magical rapidity
ivith which the great valley of the Ohio
vas settled.
And the valley of the Mississippi , a
iver navigable from the gulf to St.
? aul , why did this fertile valley have to
ie settled by sections ? Why did it have
0 wait for settlers from Virginia , New
t'ork and New England ? Whv did nol
.onisiana people the valley of the father
) f waters ? 1 or the same reason.
So , too , it was not until the new
lorthwest opened it polar gates that the
Scandinavians arrived here in large
lumbers though this may be a uieiv
oincidcnce.
Is it not perhaps in part for a similar
cason , that railroads running norJi
nd south rarely prosper ?
The Hudson river and its railroads
rhich at first sight seem an exception to
his law , are in reality examples of it
'his ' river is , with the exception of th
t. Lawrence and the Mississippi , thi
nly natural outlet lo the sea , of the lake ,
Ihio , and all the western states.
