THE Democratic dark lauteru
meeting last Saturday developed the
fact that the Bourbons of Douglas
county are not prepared to be swal
lowed up by the Ko-ops.
IT is to bo hoped that Senator
Hitchcock -will abandon the o'strich
policy in connection with the Oma
ha postal rottenness. This is no
time for evasion or trifling , nor can
this festering sore be healed by
time.
FRANCE , and particularly French
Eepublicans , are thrown into con

been commuted by McMahon last

this report proves true , Bizaine's es

UosntE > Tisa on the recent Isorth
Carolina election the New York
Herald of the 8th declares that
.North Carolina has always claimed
to bo a Democratic State , and no
one is surprised that she has proved
it. The Republican party carried
the State in 1872 only by those ex
treme and exceptional exertions
which are made in Presidential elec
tions. The heavy pressure of the
administration having been - withdrawn
drawn , North Carolina takes her
place among the conservative States
pf the South.
SENATOR Hrrciicock's efforts In
behalf of the settlers of the Loup
ATalley , deserves commendation ,
and the BEE cheerfully accords him
proper credit for a praiseworty ac
tion. In this connection we reiti-
rate what is now generally admit
ted , that the BEE is ever ready to
recognize the meritorious conduct of
any officer or public servant , no
matter what their personal relations
may bo. It is our aim above all
things to be Just and impartial.
IF Senator Hitchcock regards the
demand for the removal of his Oma
ha postmaster as a war upon him
self , he is very much mistaken. It
JB simply an effort to rid the postal
pervlce of an officer who , with
every incentive to be honest , has
proved recreant to his trust. It
matters not how this outburst was
brought about. Suffice it to say
that the proofs of corruption are
overwhelming , and that every re
gard for public virtue nnd decency
demand prompt and decisive action
on the part of the Senator if he
wants to retain the popular confi-
THE PAEMESS' PBOBLEM.
The most intricate problem foi
farmers just now , is whether it wil
pay to sell their wheat at the ex
tremely low figures that rule tht
maiket. at present , or whether i
would be profitable to hold on for i
rise.
rise.This
This of course cannot embrace
farmers who are compelled to real
ize immediately on their crops tc
meet the pressing wants of theii
families , and the pressure from im
patient creditors. It is only the
farmer , with accumulated means
that can afford to store his grain anc
take his chances ou a rise in tht
winter or spring.
As far as we can gather from
commercial journals , there is nc
probability of any material advance
for some months to come. The crops
in grain producing Europe are , on
the whole , expected to yield quite s
surplus for export. The famine in
India is now virtually overand verj
little , if any grain , will be wante (
there.
California expects to export ovei
twenty million bushels of her superi
or wheat , which exceeds the expor
of 1873 some eight million bushels
California wheat being superior tc
that raised in the northwestern
States will very naturally have the
preference of European whea
speculators. "Unless a continenta
war shall be precipitated by some
of the European powers during tht
coming year the prospective de
mand for American wheat is no
very promising. Present indica
tions seoin however , to point verj
strongly toauothersangulnary strug
gle in which Germany , Spain
France , Austrja , Italy and even
Turkey may become involved.
Such an event would of course be
followed by a material advance in
the grain market. On the other
hand the ruling prices of wheat are
SQ low that a furihpr depone js hardy -
} y probable.
The transportation rates arc al
ready virtually up to the winter
standard , and no material advance
in these rates need therefore be in-
ticipated. Looking at the case from
this standpoint , we ahould conclude
that , if farmers can afford it , they
will run very little risk in holding
their grain for a few months.
FOB the benefit of the organs o |
the Western Union Telegraph mo
nopoly , we reproduce [ an extract
from a letter written to the Chicago
Tribune by ex-Mayor Joseph Medill
of Chicago , now on a tour tour of
pleasure and observation in Europe.
Mr , Jfedill , as part owner of the
Chicago Tribune , has heretofore al
ways opposed the postal telegraph
scheme as impractical.
The efforts of ex-Postmaster Gen
eral Croswpll jn behalf of cheap
telegraphy have Invariably been'
met by the officers and paid attor
neys of the monopoly with the
argument that : telegraphing is
mucli cheaper in America than
in any other country on the
globe. They have also repeated
ly asserted that the postal telegraph
system has been generally con-
derncnd by the people where it was
introduced. These assertions are
exploded and refuted by Mr. Medill ,
who writes as follows from Brussels :
I omitted } n the proper connec
tion to state that the telegiaph lines
belong to the government , M'ho
built and operate them in connec
tion with thePostoffice Department.
The tariff for messages is half a
franc for every twenty wordswhich
embraces address and signature.
The net message is about twenty
words , which costs only ten cents ,
whether the distance it is transmit
ted be a mile , to the next villageor
150 miles , from one end of the king
dom to the other. The Belgians are
well satisfied with their telegraph-
system , and could not be induced to
turn it over to a chartered company ,
with the oppressive privilege of ex
acting what tolls and serving the
public as they pleased. At the ex
ceedingly low rate of less than a
cent a word , the Belgium telegraph
po&tnl system is rnore than self-sup
porting , in addition to paying inter ?
cst on its cost of construction.
Mil. NICHOLSON , ot Indiana , a
member of the Society of Friends ,
is now at Washington looking after
the appropriations made by Con
gress for the management ot the
friendly savages. According to the
Washington CJironlcle , Mr. Nichol
son still strongly maintains that the
white men of the Indian country
are the only cause of developing
the numlcrous instincts of the In
dian , and leading him to war
againbt the white race.
The same kind of logic , says the
C/ironiclc , i ? > deeply instilled into
the minds of the Indian Bureau
here , and the problem that deeply
troubles to solve is how to punish the
white mun , instead of the Indian
criminal. There is no brute red man
that exists , or has existed , but
what has a ready champion for the
justice of all his acts among Indian
missionaries and agent , who turn
up hi Washington every day , and
who are supported through life in
ijood style out of money annually
Appropriated by Congress to clothe
and feed the Indians.
IT now looks as if Custer's Black
Hilk exploring expedition had been
planned in the interest of Northern
Pacific stock manipulators. The
glowing descriptions of the region
traversed by Custer's army that
come to us through the correspon
dents that accompany the expedi
tion seem to indicate that pressure
is to be brought on Congress to
grant further concessions to the
Northern Pacific Company , ostensi
bly with a view of opening the
Black Hills country to civilization ,
but really to .revive the broken for
tunes of Jay Cooke and other finan
cial gamblers.
THE demise of'Bishop White-
house of the Episcopal Church , will
create a feeling of profound regret ,
not only among his numerous
friends and admirers in" this coun
try , bat also in England , where his
eminence as a divine , and his
great scholarly attainments , have
often been recognized.

The Democratic organs are mak
ing desperate attempts to get up a
little enthusiasm over their victory
in Kentucky. It is a good deal like
the renowned capture of Holland
by the Jtotch.
Hon. Joseph H. Sloss , of Alaba

his daughter's reputation with such
a reckless disregard of window glass
and the good looks of a rising young
man , is a candidate for re-election.
It is a comfort to be assured , as
we are by the New York Tribune ,
that no man , after reading the ad

vote for James' Buchanan. St.
Paul Pioneer , ( Ind. )
George S. Houston , the Demo
cratic nominee for Governor of Ala
bama , was for twenty years member
of Congress , and for several years
chairman of the Committee on
Ways and Means. B. D. Lewis aim
W. H. Forney are the no'minees for
Congress at Large.
Senator Stewart of Nevada , an
nounces that he is not a candidate
for re-election , and tnat Statewhich
never saw him oftener than ouce in
four or five years , does not refuse to
be comforted ou the prospect of his
permanent absence. He will prac

An exchange laments that tlip
"original founder of the Granger
Mr. Saunders of Washington , is in

It is rather early in the canvass
for Presidential candidates to decline -
cline , but Gen , Hancock seems to
think it necessary for him to set the
example. A paragraph stating that
he was a candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for the Presiden
cy having come to his notice , the
Norristown. Pennsylvania , Herald
is authority for the statement that
be made a prompt denial , and said
that he never sought and does not
now seek any political office.
Governor Woodson made a speech
in Lafayette county , Mo. , the other
day , which it was hoped would have
a beneficial effect in inducing the
Grangers ( o join the Democratic

asked what he thought of it. Pon-
derjnjr a moment , he replied : "It

Ex-0ongressn5an Wm. A. Rich
ardson , of Illinois , has taken the
field against the action of the Dem
ocratic Central Committee of that
State in presuming to make a plat-
orm for the par'y. He declares the
lotion of the Committee an iffiprWi
"
dent piece of usurpntl/W and a gross"

and also denounces the financial
ilank of the platform. Mr. Ricl\i
ardson has an influential standing
among a large nun bpr of 4\Iama
county Democrats , and his notion ,
it is thought , will lead to a serious
division of sentiment among them.
Mr , D. N. Cooley lives in Dubu-

art of diamond cutting , in which
the Dutch had virtually had a mo

be remembered that the Koh-i-noor
was cut , some twenty years ago , by
workmen brought over from Am

an eminently skilled artificer ( his
father was a diamond-setter In
West Prussia ) , has so thoroughly
mastered th& difficulties thst hf
judgment and taste enable him to
cut and polish diamonds with"
smaller loss of weight than the
Dutch .artists can effect. The Koh-

in 1851 , was reduced to 123 carats
by the process of cutting in 1852.
