A XEW design for postal Prds is
being prepared for the postoffice de
partment, with a vlow Of improving
on the present postal card.
The platform of the Democratic
Convention of Indiana reminds one
of the tail of M. Coggja's comet for
length, and, in some parts of jt, is
almost as nebulous. Herald.
We should say it was, especially
that part referriug to the financial
problem.
While the Paris papers are inti
mating that she attempted assassi
nation of Bismarck was only a feint
concocted by the German police, for
the purpose of working up popular
enthusiasm, tho French Ambassa
dor at the Imperial Court at Berlin
sends hearty congratulations from
bis government to Bismarck, upon
his fortunate escape.
The Board of Indian Coniniis
missionrs now in Washington con
template a trip across the plainB, for
the purpose of looking after their
pets. It is to be feared that they
will keep at a safe distance from
the friendly Indians that are just
now maurauding and raiding on
the settlements in Colorado, Wyom
ing, and Kansas.
Under tho ruling of the Post
office department, the clause in
the post-office bill detailing the time
for the prepayment of postage on
newspapers, to begin on January,
does not cover the clause in relation
to public documents; so that from
tills time forward bound public doc
uments can be sent from Washing
ton for ten cents each, without re
gard to size, and all of which are un
bound at tho rate of 2 cents per
pound.
According to the Washington
Chronicle, Boss Shepherd's effort to
procure the indictment of Dana is
simply an act of self-vindication.
We supposed all along that a fair
opportunity to vindicate his corrupt
jobbery had been afforded him by
the Congressional Investigating
Committee. The report of the
committee, and .the subsequent ac
tion of Congress would hardly war
rant the belief that Dana had ma
Ifeiously Invented or exaggerated
Shepherd's rascally transactions.
And now-France is making an ef
fort to check the tidal wave of emi
gration. An official notice has Just
been published, warning agricultur
ists and mechanics against emi
grating to America without consult
ing the administration. It is stated
in this connection that "a number
of emigrants have made application
to the government for assistance to
enable them tc return to France,
particularly from Philadelphsa,
whers&be promises held out by em
igration agents have-not been real
1 ized."
03CAHA has a public park, and
the people, or rather the tax-payers
are contributing several thousand
' dollars per annum, for Its malnte
' nance and embellishment. Public
parks maintained at the public ex
pense are supposed to be accessible
to the public for whoso benefit they
were established.
In other words public parka
should not be monopolized by any
portion of the community. Such
however, seems to be the practical
effect of pic-nicking In Hanscom
Park; when a fee for admission is ex
acted, . Floating steam fire engines are
now-advocated by the Chicago pa
pers ae an effective means for pre
venting extensive conflagrations.
Such engines have for many years
been employed by the London fire )
' defartment. The Chicaco Tribune
expresses the opinion that no other
city in this country could make
such apparatus as serviceable as
Chicago. "The river and its brtiches
diviae the city, and as those float
ing engines could be brought
to .any part of the river, they
would be of use, not only along the
sides of the river, out for a consider
able distance back. They have
enormous power, being capable of
sending large streams a great dis
tance. They are not dependent for
water upon hose or water works. So
long as the river is unexhausted
theli supply Is unlimited. They
: would be particularluseful in cases
of toes among- the lumber yards on
the river basks, or among the ware-

S'
CHEAP COAL FKOK THE VtStt MS
S0TJ2X. The -Bee has repeatedly predicted
that Omaha will eventually procure
her cheapest coal from the upper
Missouri region. That coal, in ex
haustless quantities, exists in the
Yellowstonereglon, is an undisputed
fact- Biver .men, whe are familiar
with the country between Omaha
and Fort Benton, have repeatedly
assured us that coal of superior qual
ity could be found at vajious points
near the banks of the river, above
Yankton. The only difficulty, so
far, has been the want of transporta
tion facilities and insecurity from
hostile Indians.
A very important discovery has
recently been made by an experi
enced Pennsylvania coal miner at
a point on the Missouri river, about
one hundred miles above Bismarck.
Specimens of this coal have been
examined at Helena and are pro.
nounced the very best quality of
bituminous coal, fully equal to the
best Pennsylvania. The newly dis
covered coal fields are said to cover
many miles, and would doubtless
furnish a full supply for the entire
Missouri valley for an almost m?
definite period.
These Dakota coal fields are near
er Omaha than are the coal mines
of Wyoming or Kansa3. Coal can
be placed in cars at Rock Springs or
Carbon at $2.50 per ton, and there
is no reason why it could not be
mined and loaded in barges for the
same price on the Upper Missouri.
Xow, the transportation by water
ought o be at least one hundred per
pent cheaper than transportation
by rail. With the full
knowledge of the unproductive
wealth within easy reach it will not
be long before some enterprising
men will fry an experiment that
promises Rreater rptyrns than gny
gold or silver mine in the country.
The Bee is now more than ever
convinced that Omaha will ulti
mately draw her chief poal supply
by the river from the northwest.
The Chicago Times expresses un
bounded indignation at the exag
gerated reports that were transmit
ted from Chicago by telegraph con
cerning the great fire. "It is bad
enough," says the Times, "to have
incompetence and folly visited upon
us at home. But to have it sent
abroad is intolerable. Some fool
telegraphed East before nine
o'clock last night that the
fire was already consuming the
Palmer House would Inevitably at
tack the Grand Pacific with a judg
ment day period, and had destroyed
everything from Twelfth street
north to these points. The obvi
ous consequence of such lying is to
Impair credit, and harrass business
menj and if the Associated Press is
responsible for the prevarication of
this particular fool, let him be
bounced.
Cuicago cleared away sixty acres
of timber in less than ten hours.
' SENATORIAL CHANGES.

the legislatures which elect their
successors are to be chosen this year.

Hank Monk on "Saratogas."
Hank Monk, the stage-driver
who gave Horace Greeley his me
morable mountain ride, in com
mon with all his tribe, hates the
sight of those ponderous specimens
of architecture, in the trunk line
known as the "Saratoga bandbox.'
He likes a "Saratoga" about as well
as a cat likes hot soap. Ho now
drives 0:1 the s'tage lino
between Carson City and
lake Tahoe. Ho was driving
on the saino line last summer. A
Virginia lady who was stopping at
the Glenbrook House had a "Sara
toga" at C.irson which she wished
brought up to the lake. It was
about as long and wide as a first
class spring mattress and seven or
eight feet high. The lady had man
aged to get itasfar as Carson by rail,
but the trouble was to get it up into
the mountains. Hank had prom
ised two or three times to bring it up
"next trip," but always arrived
without it. At last Hank drove up
one evening and, as usual, the lady
came out on the verandah to ask if
he had brought her trunk. .Like
that great and good man, Georgo,
Hank cHnnot tell a lie, and, so he
said: "No,ina'am,I haven't brought
it, but I think some of it will be up
by the next stage."
"Some of it!" cried the lady.
"Ye.; may be half it, or such a
matter.
"Half of it!" groaned the horri
fied owner of the Saratoga.
"Ye; half to-morrow and the
rest next day or the day after."
"Why, how in the name of com
mon tense can they bring half of
it?"
"Well, when I left they wero
sawing It In two, and"
"Sawing it in two? Sawing my
trunk in two?"
"That was what I said," coolly
answered Hank. "Two men with
a big cross-cut saw wero working
down through it about the middle,
I think."
"Sawing my trunk in two ? and
all my best clothes in it ! Sawing it
in the middle! God help the man
that saws my trunk!" and in a
towering passion sherustied indoors,
threatening the hotel, the stage line,
the railroad company, the town of
Carson -and the State of Nevada
with suits for damages. It was in
vain that- she was asssured that
there was no truth in the story of the
awing that Monk was. a great
joker she could not be made to be
lieve but that her trunk had been
sawed in two, until it arrived in
tact and she had examined its con
tents thoroughly. Hank's "Sara
toga" joke is still remembered and
told at the Glenbrook House, but
the ladies see no fun In the yarn.

Every balance sheet that is laid
before the California public at pre
sent, says the San Francisco Chron
icle, contains some fresh revelation
of. the enormous growth of the
young community. The total yields
of our leading branches of com
merce are so disproportionately
large as to astonish those persons
who are accustomed to weigh the
capabilities of the State. During the
half year just ended, for instance, the
hopes of all persons interested in
agriculture have been exalted by
the magnificent weather, and much
curiosity has been evinced on all
hands to know the result of the har
vest. According to the computation
of the Sun Francisco Journal of
Commerce, our yearly invoice in
cludes the following neat little items:
Wheat, $44,000,000; wine, $4,000,
000; wool, $10,000,000; mis
cellaneous cereals, minerals,
etc., $9,000,000; gold and
siiver, $30,000,000, making about
$97,000,000 in raw material alone.
We have probably added at least
$30,000,000 to the value of this pro
duce by ltbor expended on manu
facturing a part of it, and thus it
would be perfectly safe to represent
the year's earnings at nearly $120,
000,000 from theso sources alone.
