from legislative recklessness.

ACCORDING to the St. Louis Qlole
the Texas cattle fever is again
making its appearance in portions
of Ohio , Indiana and Illinois. These
reports have , however , so far not
been definitely authenticated.
GENERAL \ IFQUAIN has set a
practical example to those who de
sire to aid the sufferers from tbe
grasshopper invasion. He offers to
be one of a thousand farmers who
will donate one hundred bushels of
wheat each to tbe poor homestead
ers.
TliE Hastings Journal has dis
carded its patent St Louis bowels ,

THE twenty political reformers eifl
thai made up the mass Convention fl
of Douglas county Independents fit
last Saturday , may , for aught we fitg
know , be perfectly sincere in their tc
desires for ameliorting the condition fc
of the industrial classes. At the
same time they should not deceive
themselves into the belief that they
have so far succeeded in convincing tr.Si
ten persons out of a thousand in this Si
city that anything practical can. te.TI
be accomplished by their movement. TI
The fact is that out of the twelve an

SENATOR HITCHCOCK AKD HIS POST-
MABTEB.
Federal patronage when judicious
ly distributed may become a most
powerful lever in the hands of a
skilled political leader. On the
other hand this prerogative may
prove his greatest curse when be
stowed on improper or unworthy
persons. Such evidently seems to
bee the case with Senator Hitch
cock's most lucrative gift , the Oma
ha postoffice.
"When Senator Hitchbook firct or
ganized the postal pool by which
Griffen anu Yost were to share and
divide Uncle Sam's most luscious
sugarplum , he could not possibly
have foreseen that this plum would
turn to ashes in their unhallowed
hands. Time has demonstrated
what the Senator will doubtless ad
mit that he committed a very grave
blunder when he saddled Yost upon
Griffin , and that he committed the
greatest blunder of his political life
when he saddled Yost upon himself.
Xobody knows better than does
Senator Hitchcock that Griffon's"
troubles , beginning with Yost , were
aggravated and precipitated by
Yost. Griffin fell victim to his own
stupidity in sustaining the outra
geous policy inaugurated by Yost
against the BEE , and Senator Hitch
cock must inevitably fall a victim
to his ovyn generosity if he attempts
to sustain Yost hi his official corrupt
tiou.
tiou.In
In his personal attachment to a
political ally the Senator is apt to
lose sight of his duty to the public.
It was risky enough for him to ap
point an unpopular officep to erne of
the most important positions within
his gift , but when he attempts to
brave public opinion by sustaining
tljat officer after he is publicly con-
victe4 qf gravp offenses and flagrant
violations of honor , he smpy } } com
mits political hari karl.
It is immaterial whether Special
Agent Hawley sends in a white-
washfng report or whether he con
firms his publip depjan jon , made
n the presencp of responsible wtT |
ncjscs , that all but ono of the
charges brought against Yost have
been sustained. - The people of Oma
ha and Jfebraska have read the
sworn testimony and fQFm94 their
own verdict. They cannot bo bribed ,
nor can any honest or honorable
Republican journal attempt to ex
onerate the officer who , acrording
to his own admissions , is gujty } of
the most disgraceful offenses.
Even the Omaha Republican ,
Yost's personal organ , has not dared
to face public indignation by at
tempting his defence. The silence
of the Democratic } press at this stage
of procedure may readily be ex
plained. They want nothing bet
ter than the retention of Yost in the
Omaha postoffice to give the lie to
the professions of Republicans , that
lishonestand corrupt officials are
promptlyremoved.
The editor of the Herald has
publicly declared his intention to
ivrestle Douglas county from the
Republicans by parading the fester
ing postal sore during the impend
ing campaign. He that hesitates is
est , is a maxim that might ] well
ipply to Senator Hitohcocks in this
nstance. Let him hesitate between
luty and personal friendship and it
iocs require the gift of a prophet
or of 3 lottery gambler ) to forsee
he result.
THE BEE is just as anxious as any
ithcr Journal to make the coming
state fair a success , but it cannot
ipprovo the questionable method
esorted to by Mr. Morton in his
ate grasswhopper prouunciamento.
f we have to send the exaggerated
grasshopper invasion reports broad-
: ast over the land for the purpose of
[ rawing a full attendance to the
air we had better abandon thatpro-
jct altogether.
In the first place the area of the
uticlpated suffering will be almost
ntirely confined within the settle-
lents in the Loup and Republican
alleys. The number of families
liat will need immediate relief Is
omparatively small.
A grea ter number will need sup-
lies for themselves and their stock
uring the winter , and seed for the
iriug. The most effective organ-
: ation for their relief is the Grange ,
iid we apprehend the men who
ave contributed so liberally toward
relief of the Louisana sufferers tl
(
ill not hold back when the call
> mes from the people of their own
Lite. The people in the towns and
ties will also do their share to-
ard ameliorating their conditiou.
AH these measures will receive si
ir heartj.support. . We are , hewer -
er , inclined to the opinion that
"r. Morton's proclamation will deere
ore damage to Xebraska than has
( en Jone by the grasshoppers.
Tun active sympathy and friend- ct
ip displayed by the Emperor of ctni
jrmany toward the Spanish Re-
iblic , is after all not quite as disin- JuSi
Si
rested as one might suppose. Ac-
rdiug to a French aceount.Kniser

> es Germany need a Gibraltar ?
'hat can a country which personi-
3 unity at home and peace and
od will all round the world want
do with such an ugly looking
rtress ?
FT now looks as if Germany was

A few straggling grasshoppers are

great as was at first reported.
The west half of Cass county
near the Weeping Water and Eight

hoppers last weet , with but slight
damage however.
