It now looks as if Congress would
do nothing practical toward solving
tho cheap transportation problem
during the present session.
The centennial elephant was
again put In training in the lower
house of Congress yesterday. Our
"Washington advices intimate that
it will take the whole week to put
him through.
A marked feature of the present
era of reconciliation are tho resolu
tions passed by the Xew York posts
of the grand army of the Republic
to make no discrimination between
the graves of Confederate and Union
soldiers on decoration day. -
The Finance bill introduced in
the lower 'House of Congress by
Representative Hooper, of Massa
chusetts, Tuesday, provides for the
issue of an additional national bank
note circulation to the States or Ter
ritories having less circulation than
$10 per capita of population, and
for the withdrawal of legal-tender
notes at the rate of 25 per cent of
the additional issuo of National
Bank notes until the outstanding
legal-tender notes shall be reduced
to $356,000,000, and prohibiting na
tional banks charging more than
7 3-10 per cent for interest or dis
count. The Herald advocates tho en
couragement of manufactures in
Omaha by tax exemption. This
was precisely George Francis Train's)
recommendation to our City Coun
cil, and the Herald probably remem
bers how that body treated it.
"While the Bee has always advoca
ted home manufactures as the surest
foundation to commercial prosperity
the principle of tax exemptions Is
contrary to the spirit of justice
Furthermore it would be in direct
conflict with our Constitution,
wliich distinctly prohibits such dis
crimination in favor of corpora
tions. The only way Omaha can en
courage home manufactures is by
private subscription of bonuses, and
by devising the means whereby
manufacturers thall have an
abundant supply of cheap water and
cheap coal.
It takes almost as much strategy
to obtain possession of the great
seal of Arkansas as it did to cabbage
the great seal of Nebraska upon a
memorable occasion.
The great seal of Arkansas hap
pens, as it were, to be in possession
of Governor Brooks, who is securely
intrenched at the State Capitol.
Baxter, the other claimant, being.
desirous of issuing gubernatorial
proclamations is anxious to possess
himself of this regal insignia.
In order to overcome this de
ficiency ho ordered a fac simile of
the great seal from a St. Louis en
gravcrer. The signet reached
Llttlo Rock b3 express Monday,
but the crafty Brooks having some
how scented danger in the air,
promptly detached one of his staff
officers, who confiscated the contra
band article and placed it Into the
iiaima oi ms master. Aim now
Brooks has two great seals of State,
wliile Baxter is disconsolate over
his seal-less condition.
OtniXew York dispatches convey
the gratifying intelligence that the
managers of the Union Pacific pro
pose to take active measures for the
development of the vat mineral re
sources in "Wyoming and Utah.
This in accordance with a pro
gramme long since foreshadowed
that that company would utilize the
inexhaustible coal beds and iron
mines of the Rocky Mountain re
gion by establishing reduction
works, rolling mills and foundries,
at some convenient point on the line
of the road.
While tho development of the
agricultural wealth of the fertile
Platte Valley will form ihe basis of
a lucrative local traffic, the inhospl
tal and sterile mountain ranges of
Wyoming and Utah are destined at
no very distant day to become the
back bone of the pioneer trans-continental
read.
With the superior facllites pos
sessed by the .company it will re
quire no superhuman efforts to solve
the great problem of emancipating
the people of tne trans-Missouri ter
ritory from the burdensome yoke of
eastern manufacturers. Let the
Union Pacific once demonstrate tho
feasibility of iron manfacture in
Wyoming, and private capital

A hayseed Granger with horti
cultural proclivities transmits a
graphic review of the coming
senatorial aspirants through the
Nebraska City Cltroniclc. We
deem the following points worthy
of reproductiotion :
Your candidate Paddock will
have to look out very sharp, or he
will be distanced on the first heat
for a seat where Tipton now sits.
Stone crushing is not so hlguly ap
preciated in Nebraska a3 tree plant
ing, and there is where Governor
Paddock made a mistake in adopt
ing the smashing of stones Instead
of planting trees. Thayer, seeing
Paddock's weakness, took advant
age of it, and has gone into the
tree business on a large scale.
Furnas planted a vineyard, and
was elected Governor. Koenig
camo from a section of countij'
where tho "cottonwood grows," and
was twice elected State treasurer.
Gosper planted a nursery and in
troduced some boar pigs he suc
ceeded James as secretary of State.
Weston scattered a few walnuts,and
is now Auditor of State. Hitch
cock was mado U. S. Senator be
cause he favored the planting of one
hundred and sixty acres of timber
on every quarter f-ection of land in
Nebraska.
Thus it is, no ono need aspire
to an office in Nebraska unless ho
is a tree-planter of some import

Correspondence of tho Bee J
LoxeTrhe, Mayo, 1674.
Great excitement prevails here,
owing to Uncle Samuel sending out
subpoenas for a large number of our
quiet, industrious citizens, to appear
before the Grand Jury in Omaha.
Deputy 3rarshal Culbertson, accom
panied by our very efficient Sheriff,
have been out and served tho invi
tations, and, now the general in
quiry is, "what is it for."' The
Marshal don't know of coure, and
no one knows; many think it Is tho
Railroad Injunction case, but others
with more judgment think that it
is on account of somo of our leading
farmers having so much wood that
once belonged to poor Lo scattered
around loosely on their premises.
Your correspondent leans to the lat
ter belief, however. Be it what it
may, many aro scared, and it is
rumored that largo wood own
ers have threatened that if
any of the witnesses blow
on them they can't live in the
county any longer, so you see we
yill all be afraid to tell. The worst
feature of the whole business, to
my mind, is that it takes the men
from their farms just in the busiest
time, and I earnestly hope for the
good of these poor men, "(for most
of them have little of this world's
filthy lucre,) that District Attorney
Neville will let them off as soon as
possible, and only trj' to convict
those who have taken all the wood,
because they were able to hire men
and had teams to haul it, and not
the homesteaders who only took a
a little, and that from sheer neces
sity. But enough of this, our county
generally is flourishing, not as be
fore the panic, but steadily picking
up, and if crops are good we will all
be content. Population Is steadily
increasing west, and has reached
upwards of 3,000 in our littlo coun
ty, and some have an idea that
that there will be a west end to our
State yet, and not all east.
The Grange excitement Is not so
nign as or yore. -Nearjy mi nave
joined who could raie the stamp.,
and some who could not, embryo
politicians iurniatmig them. You
see the leading farmers see political
power in It and every new number
in their vein is another vote. Your
correspondent thinks, however, that
the average Granger will vote to
suit himself, and only joins the or
ganization for the benefits that will
accrue socially and pecuniarily.
There is already too many men in
the organization who have joined
for political purposes an all know;
to make it perfectly harmonious,
and now that election approaches
the wires commence to vibrate.
The Ninth District will have more
than nine candidates for the State
Senate, and the Twenty-fourth more
than twenty-tour forRepresentative,
and all sure to win. I think our
delegation in Congress north
of the Platte have given un
usual satisfaction this winter,
and do not believe they will
be changed. Their ojjportunity
to be sure have mostly been confined
to the East, and in this they will
have to look out for more dissatis
faction. The removal of the Capi
tal from Lincoln will bo an issue in
the coming election, for where it is,
and as it is, the State is in no way
benefitted, and honest thinking
men generally believe that it should
be on the U. P. Railroad,not farther
east than Columbus, and removed
from the presence of the old cor
ruptionists that built it and nearly
ruined the State. A State admin
istration can hardly be elected that
will uot succumb to the old Butler
ring, if left at Lincoln. I think no
Republican had an idea at the last
convention, but that Kennard & Co.
was at last busted when Furnas was
nominated. Then just imagine the
humiliation of the Governor's friend
from tho course he has pursued. No,
Mr. Bee, if the West generally un
derstoodthe situation, there would
not be enough left of the old party
wire-pullers to make a respectable
THE COLORADO SCANDAL
The
Charges Against
McCook.
General
(Washington Correspondence Xew York Tribune-)
The Senate Committee on Terri
tories, which has spent several
months in the examination of
charges against ex-Gov. McCook,
whoni the President had renomi
nated to bo governor of Colorado,
lias reported the same to the Sen
ate in Executive session with the
testimony that has been taken.
The first charges were signed by
several citizens of Colorado, includ
ing Delegate Chaffee, a member of
the Territorial Legislature, an ex
Indian agent, and several others.
They accused Gov. McCook of
fraudulent practices while Governor
of Colorado in connection with cer
tain contracts to supply cattle to the
Ute Indians, by which the Govern
ment is alleged to have lost S30,000;
of approving a divorce bill more
than eight months after tno legis
lature had adjourned; that he had
received money for his influence to
have an official retained in office,
and that he had been interested in
the profits of discounting vouchers
for an Indian contractor, the pay
ment of which depended upon his
own approval.
In regard to the cattle contracts, the
only question was in regard to the
character of the animals furnished
by the contractor. The agreement
was to deliver American cattle, and
McCook's accusers assert that he
and his brother-in-law, who in
spected them, allowed "Texas" oat
tle to be furnished, tho latter being
worth only about one-half as much
as the former. The testimony
taken by the committee was con
flicting, but the conclusion that sev
eral members of the committee ar
rived at was that the cattle were of
mixed blood, and that, although
they were not what would be known
as "native" cattle in the Eastern
States, they were not "Texas" cows.
They were, in fuct, what were
known as "American" cattle in
Colorado at the time the contract
was made.
Tlie Committee conclude that, as
the officiaijournals of tho Legislar
ture represent the divorce bill re
ferred to in the second charge as
having been feigned before tho ad.
journment of the Legislature, the
charge that ho signed it eight
months after is not pre -id.
It appears that a gentleman who
held it United States office in Color
ado, and who was threatened with
removal, requested Gov. McCook to
come to Washington and use his
influence for his retention, and paid
to the Governor, probably to cover
the expenses of the journey and his
stay In this Dty,S,000. It is un
derstood that no corrupt rnotlvp has
been provided on the part either of
McCook or the man In whose inter
est he acted.
In regard to the charge that Gov.
McCook shared in the profits of
"shaving" the vouchers of Indian
contractors, tje payment of which
depended upon his approval, the
facts seem to be these : An Indian
Agent in McCook's superintendency
had, without authority, made a
verbal contract for goods amounting
to $3,000. When tljo bill was pre
sented to Gov. MaCook he refused
to approve It without investigation,
on account of tho irregularity.
But tho contractor was greatly
in need of tho money, and
offered to sell it for fifty cents on
a dollar. Mr. Thompson, McCook's
brother-in-law and private secretary,
went to thp bank with the con
tractor, and by promising to secure
the approval of the voucher, nego
tiated its sale and furnished a part
of the money to buy it. The bill
was aftorwnrd approved and the
money paid to Thompson, but was
not allowi d at the department for
two years. The banker, who is a
partner of Delegate Chafiie, swears
that Thompson told him that the
profits on the voucher were to be
divided between Gov, McCook, the
banker, and himself. Both Thom
son and McCook swear that the
latter never had any interest
in it.and did not know thatThomp
son had until long afterward, and
that then, on Thompson's account,
he paid to the banker $800 as his
share of the profits out of his own
pocket and reprimanded Thompson
for his part in the affair.
The whole contest has grown out
of tho personal relations between
McCook and Delegate Chaffee,
whose particular friend Elbert, now
Governor of the Territory, will be
removed if McCook is confirmed.
The President is on McCook's side
and will not withdraw his name.
Ohio on the Veto,
ICIereland ITeraM, May 2. J
The weekly Ohio newspapers do
not criticise the veto: A majority
of them think the veto wise; the
minority think that the President,
if he erred, did so on the right side.
Almost unanimously the weekly
Ohio press believes that the finan
cial question had best be let alone,
to work out its own problem. Henoo
the veto can do no harm. So far as
it is nu tutoring wedge for
the disruption of the Republi
can party, we see no symptoms of
that in Ohio. We do not aver that
the Republican party is as strong as
ever in Ohio. A Dian would be
t knave or fool who should olajtn that
there are no signs of weakness in
tho party. All we say is, that the
party Mill sutler no detriment In
Ohio through the veto. There are
other causes that may knock Jt Into
a cocked hat, but the veto will not
add one element to such causes.
As a rule the Ohio weekly press
takes very little interest in the vto
matter. Why, we cannot say. But
from that fact M-e argue that the
country does not feel great financial
stringenc3, and that the rural dis
tricts are moving on as usual In
theiraccustomed activities. Mining,
manufacturing, and mechanical
centers have received a check
especially where such industries are
connected Mith coal and iron. The
oil trade is also very much depress
ed, but that is traced to causes out
side .of financial panics or embar
rassments. Over production is
what's the matter with tho oil busi
ness, but its depression in localities
where oil business is a permanent
feature added to the coal and iron
depression, all combined have a
very sensible effect on the country.
On another point, besides the let
ting the financial question work it
self out, the Ohio weekly press is
almost unanimous. It is that there
should be no contraction of the cur
rency. In all this financial eiscus
sion the coutractionists of the great
financial centres have been able to
place their opponents in a false po
sition. Every man of those oppo
nents has been denounced as an
inflationist M'hile tEe contractlon
ists, themselves, have successfully
hidden their own hoofs and horns
and tail. They are the devil, and
they seek contraction. But they
have been smart enough though
the bad odor of such advocates of
the currency bill as Ben F. Butler
Logan and such like to make the
people believe "that the real issue is
M-hethcr there shall be inflation or
not The actual issue, all along,
has been whether there shall be con-

Those Sear Little Feet.
Among tho many reforms for
which women have come to le
grateful, the shoo reform is one of
the best. Fair weather is always
given as an explanation of streets
thronged with women, but In view
of this spring's capricious atmos
pheres, that reason surely fails. It
must "be the prevailing shoe, broad
soled, square heeled, aud freer than
suffrage, that has driven forth the
feminine pedestrine, for oertainly a
covering for the foot as "easy" as
that of the present walking shoe
has not been worn in a long time.
Shoes of all kinds are notably plain;
even -fancy stitching is out of favor,
and nealuess only is imperative,
provided the shoe is excellent in fit.
Buttoned boots, made of soft, lus
treless French kiu, are the kind pre
ferred, heavy shoes of pebble goat
being added to wardrobes now in
preparation for the country. For
sensitive feet, easily wearied by
walking, uppers of French satin
have foxings of kid, only high
enough to give strength, and protect
the feet from dampness.
For carriage wear there are dainty
boots of French satin, which lace
upon the Instep, and add a quilling
of narrow black laoe entirely around
both eyelet rows. Such shoes, made
of the same material as the dress,
are provided Mith elegant dinner
and reception costumes, while others
of black satin with lace-trimmed
lappels upon the Instep are preferred
by some for the same purpose.
For traveling, kid-buttoned shoes
are first in favor, but many ladies
are ordering boots of heavy gray
Slinnors of linen, corn buff and
Brown, are being chosen for neglige
toilets in the country, anu these
trimmed with rosettes of black, and
bright steel buckles, are both suit
and.pretty of themselves.
Marie Antoinette slippers, cro
quet and garden shoes, and Pompa
dour shoes of scarlet, or blue kid are
among the fancy provisions of the
shoe-shops this season.
No more buff or gray kid shoes
are worn by little girls, black being
firmly settled as the favorite color,
or rather no color, wee unngs in
their first short dresses, and bairns
just trying independent locomotion,
M-ear dainty buttoned shoes of pink,
scarlet or blue, without heels, and
fastened with pearl buttons.
A "Wonderful Echo in Colorado
Canon.
Correspondence from Powell's Exploring Ex
pedition. Echo Park, where we remained
one M-eek, lies at tho juncture of
Green and Bear Rivers, and takes
its name from the wonderful echo
that may be heard there. When a
gun is discharged total, silence fol
lows the report for a moment, then,
Mith startling suddenness, the echo
is heard, seemingly at a great dis
tance say five miles to the south
whence it comes back in separate
and distinct reverberations, as if
leaping from glen to glen. Louder
and quicker grows the sound, until
apparently directly opposite, when
a full volume of sound is returned ;
then once more th echo is heard,
like the snapping of a cap, far to the
eastward.
