The tidal wave of immigration is
btill pouriug into Nebraska. From
the Cincinnati Times we learn that
fifteen families will emigrate from
Fort Branch, Indiana, to Nebraska
during the present week.
Scjixnn's last wish to secure the
passage of his civil rights bill, is in
:i fair way of realization. The bill
has been reiwrted back by tho
Senate Judiciary Committee with
some amendments. There is every
probability that the bill will now
pass both Houses of Congress.
The city of Cleveland furnishes a
fair specimen of what may be ac
complished by the encouragement
of home manufactures. Cleveland
voted $300,000 in bonus to manufac
turers, and increased 50,000 in pop
ulation within the past ten years.
"What Cleveland has done, Omaha
may do f .sho understands her true
interests.
The Democratic Governor of
"Wi-consln has followed in the foot
path of tho Republican Governor of
Nebraska in making his railitary
fctafl appointments. From an offi
cial order just promulgated, we find
that Governor Taylor of "Wisconsin
has appointed one Adjutant Gen
eral, one Quartermaster General and
one Surgeon General, each with tho
rank of Brigadier General; also
one Military Secretary with the
rank of Colonel, and eight Aides de
Camp, each with the rank of
Colonel. This leaves the Nebraska
Governor still several Brigadier
Generals ahead.
Tire St. Louis Democrat thinks
we bhould not be too proud of tho
corruptions, frauds, and stealings
that happen under our republican
institutions. In Ilamburg, Ger
many, the government detectives
have recently discovered Custom
house frauds that make ours, about
which bo much noise is
now being raised, appear
rather contemptible. Tho steal
ings in the case of on firm
alone amounted to about eight hun
dred thousand dollars every year,
and have been carried on for a num
ber of years. The raco of Tweods,
Fauborns, Jaynes, etc., seems,
therefore, to prosper quite as well
under imperial as republican rule.
According to our lastest a lvices
from the National Capital, the pros
pect for solving the cheap transpor
tation problem through Congres
sional legislation is not very encour
aging. The transportation bill
passed by the House some two weeks
ago still remains unacted on in the
Senate Committee, to which it was
referred. The friends of the measure
entertain serious doubts that tho
bill could bo passed through
the Senate, even if the committee
should report favorably on it. After
collecting two volumes of evidence
on the subject of transportation the
select committee of the Senate
seem to incline against all railway
projects and in favor of another all
water route. It is not at all prob
able that even this project will
secure a majority vote in the Senate.
The most important event of the
first session of tho forty-third
Congress transpired Tuesday in the
pa&saja of the Senate finance bill.
It passed in the face of the severe
criticism and bitter denunciation
of leading metropolitan newspapers,
and in spite of the protests and op
position of the men who manage
und control the capital at the great
money centers; and now tho tel
egraph announces that this triumph
of the inflationists i, after all, to
be rather barren. The comptroller
of the currency, General Knox,
who has carefully studied tho
provisions of the bill is said to havo
oijenly declared that tho practical
oporations of the bill will cause a
contraction instead of an inflation
of the currency volume. It is fur
thermore announced that in view of
this declaration, the President will
fign the bill. Should these state
ments provo true, tho framers
nnd advocates of the bill will
hardly reccivo the encomiums they
anticipated from their constituents.
"With an assured majority hi both
Houses it is hardly to be expected
that the inflationists would rest
their case on the mere glory of hav
ing successfully passed ubill that fails
to carry out their object. If Comp
troller Knox's construction of the
Senaje Finance bill, proves correct,
the House bill embodying free bank
ing, will, in all probability, be push
ed through to cover defects.
The cry of "fraud" is heard in
the land. If there -was any fraud,
in the counting of ballots it was not
on the aide of Mr. Johnson either
in the second or any other "Ward.
JBeruld.
The ry of fraud would not have
been heard In or out of the land had
not the peculiar circumstances Ir this
case naturally rendered it suspicious;
with a majority of Democratic judges
appointed by a Democratic Mayor
there certainly should have been
no reason to suspect any intentional
fraud in Mr. Johnson's count
These judges and clerks were under
oath, and their returns are entitled
to more weight than any recount
conducted several days after the bal
lots had passed out of their hands.
"Will the Herald inform us why all
the mistakes in counting were in
favor of Mr. Johnson ? "Why shoud
not Mr. Baumer have giined at
least a vote or two in some of the
wards?
On Friday afternoon last, Mr.
Johnson personally assured us that
he did not intend to contest Ball
mer's election. He only proposed
to request tho Council to recount tho
ballots of the First Ward. Tho
Council met on the samo evening,
and Mr. Johnson sent in a petition
which did not contain one word
about recounting the vote, but mere
ly intimated an intention to contest
Baumer's election. So much for
falsehood number one. "When the
contestants met before their notary
on Saturday, Mr. Johnson again
declared that he only desired to re
count the First "Ward ballots. That
count was finally made, and Mr.
Johnson, by hard scratching, gained
only one vote, leaving Baumer still
in the majority. This was Saturday
evening. On Monday morning Mr.
Johnson insisted on recounting the
Second "Ward, which onco more
gave the lie to his former assertions.
This time, however, ho was not to
be disappointed. He gained seven
votes over Baumer, and to all in
tents and purposes ho had accom
plished his object Can anybody
swear that nobody, excepting Kit-ton-the
Clerk, could have obtained
access to the ballot boxes during
that interval ?

The increase of the Portuguese
population in Alameda county is
very great,now probably numbering
4,000 to 5,000. They buy up the very
best vegetable lands in small quan
tities, for which they pay very high
prices. The Danish population
around San Lorenzo and Mount
Eden is also considerably increas
ing. Travel to Yosemite Valley has
again commenced, and everything
indicates a large travel this summer.
Joseph N. Hodgson, of Liverpool,
England, has just returned from the

rojwrt. Ho says he enjoyed himself
hugely; that there was no snow,and
that tho roads were in excellent con

Tho spring wool clip of Humboldt
county will be a splendid yield, and
of excellent quantity. Nearly all
the fleeces will bo of twelve months
growth, and it can be safely asserted
that all the wool in this county will
go into market in fine condition, as
the ranges are perfectly clean and
free from any kind of burr or
foreign matter detrimental to the
manufacture of splendid cloth or
goods of any kind.
ARIZONA.
John A. Rush wants to bo the

During the past week the excite

movements has materially abated.
S. R. De Long has bet $2,000 that
he can ride his horse "Jerry" from
Tucson, Arizona, to S in Francisco
in twenty-five days. Tho distance
is not so great, but the road is ex
tremely bad.
-In regard to the recent threats of
an investigation of General Crook's-
management of amurs m Arizona,
the General's friends throughout the
Territory express the fullest confi
dence that the result of such an ex
amination would not only place the
General's character and services in
a most favorable light before the
people, but would likewise expose
some ugly features in the adminis
tration of certain peace Indian
Agents.
Much has been said in relation to
contractors who have been furnish
ing the Indian ring with beef and
other supplies in Arizona. A large
amount of money has been charged
up against the Government for sup
plies furnished the Indians, but from
the stories that are afloat it would
seem that a great fraud is being per
petrated in this regard. No doubt
many of these stories are unfounded
or exaggerated, yet there are many
citizens who could testify respecting
the fraud that was 'perpetrated in
the matter of supplying Leaf,

Improvements in Cavalry Equip
ments. After a session of two months at
Fort Leavenworth, the Board of
Army officers appointed to report
upon cavalry equipments, met at
Watervliet Arsenal, West Troy, on
the 25th of Maroh. The Board has
about completed its labors, and will
soon make its report to the War De
partment This is the first Board
on cavalry accoutrements ordered
during the past 25 years. It has
adopted several improvements, the
most important ofwhicli aro given
as follows in the Troy Press.
Tho saddle has boon, greatly im
preved. The ground-work is the
McCIellan saddle, but the tree is
hereafter to be made in strict accord
ance with the explicit measure
ments, and not to be varied slightly,
according to the taste of the maker,
as heretofore. Instead of the saddle-bags
now in use, a larger bag
has been adopted, which will carry
five day's rations, thus doing away
with the haversack for cavalry. A
dark blue saddle-cloth has boon
adopted. The bit has been materi
ally changed, and is a curb bit of
bright shear steel, made somewhat
after the stylo of tho English Chif
fany bit The portable forge and
blacksmith and saddler tools and
materials for cavalry, which have
heretofore been carried in soparato
boxes, have now been neatly and
compactly arranged to be carried in
a two-wheel vehicle after th.e pat
tern used in the Prussian cavalry.
This forgo wagon is so arranged that
ono horse goes in shafts, and at
tached to the whlfiletrees. Tho
ammunition is to be carried on tho
soldier's belt In a double row of cart
ridge loops which can be removed at
pleasure, and so arranged as to
equalize the weight. By this ar
rangement a soldier can carry a
larger amount of ammunition than
heretofore. An improvement has
been made In "side lines" for secur
ing horses while herding upon the
prairies. The strap extends from
tho front to the hind leg on the same
side, so that tho horse cannot run.
Tho Board will also settle the
amount of material (leather, sew
ing materials, etc.) to be issued to
a troop each half year. The ques
tion of the horse-shoe will be deci
ded in a few da3's. The comman
dant at Springfield Armory lias al
ready received orders to manufac
ture the carriages for the Gatin gun
after the pattern recommended by
the Board
, Franking Privilege.
The Senate yesterday debated the
question of the restoration of the
franking privilege. In our opinion,
it would be better to fully te3t the
experiment of paying on all matter
sent through the mails before repeal
ing the law. This supposed reform
was unquestionably demanded by
the people, and the Republican Na
tionalConvention pledged that party
to its consummation. The Repub
licans control both branches
of Congress. These hon
orable gentlemen can not,
therefore, without a breach of fidel
ity to their political associates, re
turn to the use of official franks
before the people become satisfied
that the repeal of the privilege was
unwise. But Senators and Repre
sentatives ought not to be required
to pay the postage on official matter
sent to and received by them
through tho mails out of their pri
vate means. Their salaries have
been fixed at a sum supposed to be
oareiy sumcient to pay tne reason
able value of their services. Many
think the pay at present too small.
Let this be as it may, tho necessary
expenses incurred by them on ac
count of postages on mail
matter relating exclusively
to the public interests and the
discharge of their official
duties ought not to be deducted
from their salaries. It would not
be equitable. It would reduce the
pay of some. Senators and Repre
sentatives tenfold more than that of
others, and, as a rule, the burden
thus imposed would be greatest on
those who perform the most official
labor. It is clear, therefore, that if
the compensation is now more than
enough for the services performed,
compelling these officials to reduce
it by the amount of the postages
each may pay on official matter
would not be equitable.
It does not, however, follow that
the frank should be again legalized.
It would be a great saving of the
time of these national legislators, it
Is presumed, to use envelopes with
an official stamp, as in the Depart
ments. They can be printed much
faster than Senators and Represen
tatives can write their names on
official packages. On the other
hand, there is no reason why a Con
gressman should notpaythe postage
on his private correspondence like
other mortals. Washington Chronicle.
POLITICAL H0T1S.
Butler to Blaine "Thank you,
good sir, I owe you one."
Buckingham wishes he had not a
Shakespeare name.
"The spring political freshets" is
what the Nashville Banner calls it.
The Washington Republican says
the Prohibitionists carried Connecti
cut for the Democrats.
The Democratic majority for Gov
ernor at the late election in Connec
ticut is only 1,897 ; a year ago it was
nearly double that
Gov. Dix's admirablemessage on
the financial situatiormeets with
hearty approval troA the State
press of all parties.
Mr. Wendell Philips observes that
"a candidate's refusal to let his con
stituents know his opinions on im
portant questions is not dignity, but
impertinence."
A significant and complimentary
indication of Gov. Howard's pop
ularity in Rhode Island is found in
the fact that he received every voto
cast for Governor in ten towns, in
cluding his own, at the recent elec
tion. That Henry Clay Dean is not
dead, as was recently reported, is
evidenced by the fact that one even
ing last week he made a strong tem
perance speech at Chariton, Iowa,
which the Patriot saj-s was "in his
inimitable stylo, with occassional
out-croppings of the iniquitous sen
timents that have placed him in an
unfavorable position before the peo
plo of the North."
The Pennsylvania Democrats aro
paving the way for a Republican
victory in the State election next
Fall by quarreling among them
selves. A minority of tho State
Committee met last month and
called a Convention, but so indefi
nite wa3 the language of their call
that no ono seems to be able to de
cide whether tho assembly is to bo
held on May 15 or June 15.
A Washington correspondent of
the Springfield Republican, relates
some interesting gossip about tho
Sanborn contracts, and the eminent
statesmen mixed up in them. He
says few persons doubt that Butler
in some way participated in the rich
results, and adds : "There aro Re
publicans here who think that thero
was a 'ring' formed in the Treasury
Department and outside of it for tho
purpose of making money; but I
cannot believe that Boutwell, Rich
ardson, and Sawyer, did anything
worse than jto closo their eyes and
let other people rob the Treasury.
One would supposo that Mr. Rich
ardson would havo to go after these
developments, hut there is no telling
what Gen. Grant wilLJ
Texas people appear to be getting
scrupulous about their postmasters.
They found so much fault with Mr.
Clark that he resigned, and now
they have a Mr, Whittlesey at
Houston whom they are anxious to
be rid or In tho samo way. Mr.
Whittlesey is a multifarious office
holder, being Postmaster, County
Treasurer, and a member of the
City Council at the samo time.
The Houston Mercury .objects to
him on this account, especially since
there is a deficit in his accounts as
Treasurer amounting to $10,000.
It has an impression that ho is not
exactly the sort of a man to havo
charge of Government funds, and
asks the Administration for a "new
deal."
