Pnbliaber tup nnnn election comes off during the present week, and its re mit is looked for with considerable interest in political circles. The ruBiotthatErussia is intrigu ing with Serrano, for the purpose of i.i . BPlnn of the House of HobeazoUem on the Spanish throe,' is aiplpded by our cable ad victwoBaiBerlin. It is to be hoped our City Council will act upon the Bee's suggestion to amend the fire limit ordinance, o as to compel all parties desirous of building within the limit to take out a building permit According to the Hastings Jorunal "a meeting- t political Bumipulators is to be held at Kear ney Junction or some other western town, in the interest of certain can didate." We apprehend such a Meeting would rather improve their ehaneea for being prematurely and permanently shelved. Senator Gwer has suddenly become alarmed lest the rejection of New Mexico should ultimately cheat Nebraska out of her contin gent Congressmen. The cases are, however, not at all parallel. In the ee instance the Eastern and Mid dle States simply want to prevent the admission upon a perfect equali ty, in the .U. .S. Senate of a Terri tory that is now at least forty thous and ,belowlhe quota of representa tloii;wlth no immediate or even re mote prospects of an increase. The beat evidence that this is really the Isue 1 the fact that the bill for admitting- New' Mexico passed the Houae by ni' o thirds ma jority. A XOTTKK STITHC. The foulest spot in our Municipal administration is the prevalent management, or rather mismanage ment, of prostitution. This rotten system has been the source of the moat degrading corruption and un blushing venality. It has de graded our city marshals and demoralized their subordinates. It haa become a festering sore on the body municipal which we believe demands fearless cauterization, if we wish to restore our police force to fficteBcy and respectability. A plain ftatement of facts will, we apprehend, convince any unpreju diced "mind that a radical change is absolutely demanded. Like all cities, Omaha contains a certain number of women who live by pros titution. Their number has, we are informed, varied from seventy-five to one Jraadred and fifty. At pres ent their number might be put down at the minimum figures. Under our city charter, (Sec. 3) the City Council is empowered to re jtoln, prohibit and suppress tippling afcops,! hensea. of prostitution, and other disorderly houses and prac tices. "Oh s provision of the Charter, an oni'aance, (Capter JO, j Bevised Ordinances v framed. Th first section of this ordinance ' makes the keep ing -,olJ. or connection with aajeax.srderly houses or houses of prostitution a misdemeanor for which upon conviction any person or peraona'naay be fined in any sum, not exceesjfaig $50, and they also may be imprisoned for not exceed ingten day. ThaaMavd section makes it the duty f the City Marshal to report to ttw'tftoUee Judge on the first day ita the names of all per- to be connected with home and he (the make complaint' .and oasse their - ar- Wlanlrmr may have been the in tentTon (toe -fcMaers of this ordi naBoe,kc peealiar method which. for Mvifje years, haa been pursued by the iMetB of , the law has opened the way '.Jar the most barefaced frauds MfaVhigh-handed rascality. Instead 'fit making these arrests per sonally, cHyl marshals have con trived to delegate the power to un wawrupaaaHB confederates who have converted this prosti iction santera into system of downright imposition ''and black mail. Several years ago the noto rious "Frenchy" occupied the lucra tive post of spyand blackmailer, and since then others have played thy-rets. Thia; we understand, is JW the jttiee to-day. Althoagh WW1 miakssn - laMMa) eMU Marshal Snowden receive? an in come of eighteen hundred dollars per annum, a sum fully sufScient to maintain him respectably, he delegates the duty prescribed by the .ordinance to a favorite constable and the result is about as follows : Each Inmate of public houses is compelled to pay $7.90 to the Police Court. Of this amount the school fund receives $3.00, the Police Judge $2.80 and the informer $2.10. If the Marshal performed his duty personally no charges for the arrest or complaint could be made and therefore the $2.10 aro virtually stolen from the school fund, or the person that pays the fine. Now it is plain that the ordinance intended this monthly system of fines to be a round about license system, why should the marshal's substitute be permitted to rob the school fund of from $100 to $150 per month? This is, however, not the worst feature. Under this system, money is fre quently oxtorted from these women without arrest, and no returns aro made. In such instances the black-mailing police spy pockets both the fines and costs. These rapacious hawks arc tolerated right under the 4Ose of the police judge. It has even been rumored that our city Marshals have, since the introduc tion of this system secretly connived at these nefarious practices and have habitually divided the spoils with their confidential confederates. While wo bavo no means of Jcnowlng whether this system of division still prevails, we have not a particle of doubt that it did pre vail m times past. The fact that two policemen have within the past week forced their way into a room occupied by courtesans, and levied upon them without due process of law, is sufficient evidence of the demoralizing rottenness of this sys tem. Now what we demand is a re vision, of the ordinance so as to pro hibit and prevent this imposition In the future. If tho Marshal cam not find time to report tho names and number of this class let him depute policemen to do so in each ward. Under no circumstances should the Marshal, or any police officer be permitted to compromise or collect fines, but in every case the money should be paid directly to the police court. Other reforms should be in augurated, of whloh wp intend to speak hereafter. EQ0TISH IK A HtTTSHELL. The Heratjj's JIsiiTAToits. A week or two ago Mr. Sidney Dillon jurived in Omaha. The editor of the Herald was absent at the time. The Bee and Republican greeted him with sickening praises. A day or two afterwards, and the moment we reached the city, this paper opened its plain talk with Mr. Dil lon, about those Union Paojfio im provements. A sudden change of tune was opened by the boss con cern in this line of business over the way, and the JJeeand the Union peepea in chorus. Sunday Herald. Another outburst of buchu journ alism. The Bee is not In tho habit of greeting anybody with sickening praises, and therefore it made no exception in favor of Mr. Sidney Dillon. The Bee generally does Its own thinking, and is never afraid to talk plain about matters of public con cern, whenever occasion demands. Instead of v-aiting for tho Herald to Den its oracular mouth, the Bee greeted 2lT: DUlon with die follow ing sentiments : PresidentDillon and several mem bers of the Union Pacific directory are now in our midst Their pres ence will, we hope, afford to the citizens of Omaha an opportunity to impress upon them the incalcula ble damage which has been, and is now being inflicted upon this city, by reason of the non-fulfillment on the part of the Union Pacific of cer tain contract stipulations touching depot building and railway head quarters. Omaha has never wavered in her friendship to the Union Pacific. She has never sought to evade her con tract obligotlons, and she has a right to expect that the company will also make good their pledges Had these pledges been promptly fulfilled, we can safely assert that Omaha would to-day have contained not less than forty thousand people. We do not profess that these results would have been accompnsnea oy the mere expenditure of $200,000 or more in railway buildings; but we do claim that the 'vascillating policy pursued by Mr. Dillon's pre decessors in power has discouraged public and private enterprises, and driven back thousands of industri ous men with muscle and capital, who would otherwise have located in our midst. We are constrained to make this statement because we owe it to our selves, and to the people of Omaha, as a citizen and a journalist We do this with the kindest feelings to ward Mr. Dillon, and tho other offi cers of the Company. Our appeal to them in behalf of Omaha is also an appeal in behalf of the Union Paclfic The prosperity of Omaha must nec essarily add to tne prosperity of the Union Pacific A large city built at the terminus of the road, must ine vitably increase and improve the companies traffic. Where there are such mutual in terests there should also be harmoni ous co-operation. Omana has acted her part with commendable liber ality, and now it remains for the Union Pacific reciprocate. Presi dent Dillon enjoys the reputation of being a man of broad, generous and .liberal views. As the chief execu tive of the Union Pacific he is in a position that empowers him to put the unfulfilled pledges of hlaprede cessors into practical execution." This, article appeared on the edi torial page of the Bee, on Thursday, May 21st The Herald's so-called plain talk appeared on the Sunday following, or just four days later. WeNdId not charge the Herald with being an imitator of the Bee, nor did we intimate that it peeped in its chorus. We would remind the Herald that the day has gone by when recklessness and egotism can be palmed off as raciness and enterprise in an intelligent commu nity like ours.

The farmers of Platte county have good rensons to rejoice at the present propect of an abundant harvest Quite a number of farmers last spring sowed flax.

Colum bus Journal, It Is a subject of general remark that comparatively but little corn is being planted this year. The season is ovious. Last season we had an unusually good crop of small grain which found a ready market and brought good prices. This year nearly all our farmers are increasing the area of small grain sown, at the expense of the corn crop. Fairbury (Jefferson County) Gazelle. The promise of fruit in this county is very flattering, peach trees es pecially being in good condition for vielding abundantly. There will also be a good showing of apples, crabs, cherries and pears, if no acci dent befalls the young fruit before it reaches maturity.
