SEKATOB HITCHCOCK assured
Judge Crounse last Friday that he
proposed to see justice done in the
postal corruption case. The way the
Senator interprets Justice is to sus
tain public thieves in" office , and
cause the dismissal of the men who
dare to expose them.
COLE and Bye , the postal clerks
who preferred charges against Post
master Yost , have been dismissed
It Is understood that a special agent
has investigated the charges and
cleared the accused. Associated

It Is understood among honest
men that the author of this dispatch
la u willing tool of the postal ring.
It la also understood by those who
know about -his swindling specula ,
tions on poor telegraph operators ,
that it Is natural for him to sympa
thise with dishonesty in almost any
shape or form.
ACCORDING to our Philadelphia
exchanges the prospects for the Cen
tennial fair arc said to be continual
ly brightening. Arrangements have
been made by which the full
amount of money required for car
rying out the project can be procu-
red. The managers are going about
their work In a sensible way. They
have put aside at the start all ex
travagant notions and plans , and
seem determined to "cut the coat
according to the cloth. " The
failure to obtain a grant
of money from Congress
has really aided Instead of hurting
the project. Those who are interes
ted in it have learned to rely more
upon themselves , and not so much
upon government aid. it has opera
ted favorably in another respect
also , in chpcklng wastefulness ; and
while it may cause some inconven
ience at first , the result will be
more satisfactory In the end. The
interest felt by foreigners in the Ex
position is said to be "much
greater than was supposed , and will
result in a large display of articles
from all thechie'nationsofEurope.
"Work has already been begun upon
the buildings , and a large force of
men are constantly employed. The
managers hope to have everything
ready In time , and thus avoid the
delay which occasioned BO much
infusion at the last world's fair t
YJwms.
THE EEPDPIICAlf PAETY AS A BE-
TOB32EB.
Certain bvpocritical organs of the
dominant party find ground on
which to excuse their refusal to
abandon the most wickedly cor
rupt party that ever existed , upon
the proposition that reform , and a
correction of abuses , can be accom
plished within that party better
than without it. The fact has been
demonstrated in ways that have
proven by innumerable examples
that no party can purify itself. It
may expose one or a dozen crimes.
It may denounce and inveigh
against known abuses. But this does
not cure the evil. Herald.
The BEE denies and can readily
disprove that the Kepublican is the
most wickedly corrupt party that
ever existed.
"We deny that the masses that
make up the bone aud sinew of the
Republican party are dishonest. "We
deny that the Republican party as
such is to be held responsible for the
wicked corruption of every public
man that betrays his trust. "We
deny most emphatically that the
Republican party of Nebraska is
responsible for the disgrace
ful conduct of a Senator
who notoriously owes his election
fo the votes of corrupt Democrats
in the Legislature , who sold their
votes for money. W deny tbat ,
the Republican party of Nebraska
endorses his back-pay steal , and we
claim that there are not ten Repub
licans in Douglas County outside of
the federal service who endorse him
in sustaining dishonest appointees.
The Republican party is not all
made up of Yosts and Hawleys , and
we believe the day is not very dis
tant wfjqu ftorjest .Republicans will
publicly repudiate the le < tdprshlp of
a Senator who openly avows his de
termination to sustain corruption
among his personal pets. This they
will be compelled to do as a measure
of self-preservation ,
SENATOR HITCHCOCK appears to
be gifted with a very defective
menjory. T\vo years ago he pub
licly denied tl > at he had anything
to do with the appointmpnt of Cas
per E. Yost , as Postmaster.
That declaration was flatly con
tradicted by the following memora
ble dispatch :
LONG BRANCH , July 5th , ' 72.
E. Jtosewater , Omaha :
Mr. test was appointed entirely
upon the recommendation of Sena
tor Hitchcock ,
U. S. GRANT ,
President ,
Finding himself convicted of de
liberate falsehood , the Senator au
thorized the Republican , in explan
ation , to state that Yost's appointment -
ment was temporary , and would
simply continue until the Senator
could find a suitable person to fill
the position. This also was contra
dicted by a second dispatch from
President Grant , stating that the
appointment was permanent.
With these historical facts before
us will anybody believe the Sena
tor when he denies any agency in
the dismissal of Bye and Cole ? If
the Senator really disapproves of
their removal why does he not exert
his Influence to have them reinstated
stated ?
THE REASON WHY.
Does Senator Sitchcook Want a
Democratic Colleague in the
TJ. 8. Senate ?
OMAHA , August 19 , 1874.
EDITOR BEE :
Allow me , as a Republican , to ex
plain to yourself as well the public ,
the causes which Induce Senator
Hitchcock to sustain a corrupt post
master in Omaha , and then you can
judge for yourself whether you are
not appealing to him in behalf of
Republican interests in vain.
First His tenure of office ex
tends only for a period of two more
years ; that he should seek a second
term is but natural. "When men of
recognized intellect reflect honor
upon a state as did such men as
Webster , Clay , Benton or Sumner ,
their constituents were proud to en
dorse them with repeated terms of
office. Those not blessed with such
sparks of genius "always find
it essential to secure tenure of power
by the aid of the influence which
the position of United States Sena
tor in iUelf affords. Senator Hitch
cock's power comes not from Phin-
eas W. Hitchcock , but from TJ. S.
Senator Hitchcock ; not from % > .the
splendor of Ins oratory or the celeb
rity of his statesmanship , but from
the ndmbur of appointments he con
trols l > y the barter of a Senator's
vote. With Tiptou as his colleague ,
he alone U in accord with the ex
isting administration , he alone is
consulted in all State appointments ,
and he alone wields the po\yer to
secure them. If he maintains the
dole control two years longer , his
power to secure a second term will
be great ; but if the appointing pat
ronage be divided , then his
chances becomeproportionatelyless.
Therefore to retain the solo control
of , appointment is essential for his
imprests. The election of a Repub-
"llcan Legislature results In a division
of his power. The success of the
Democracy results in the election of
a Democratic U. S. Senator , who ,
under a Republican administration ,
would Ge'powcrless. The latter re
sult must be the- one sought To es
pouse the Democratic cause openly ,
would endanger the Senator's influ
ence and result in failure. To defeat
the Republican party by indirect
means is the only policy that can bo
pursued. Can you now see why a
corrupt postmaster is retained ? Why
honest clerks are dismissed ? The
Senator claims no knowledge of
the movement. It is natural he
should. But how quick he would
be to dispose of an appointment
manifestly detrimental to his inter
ests. A man may leave money in
your absence upon your table. If
you accept it you can swear you
don't know positively who left it.
The Senator finds these mon dis
missed and hlspetretalned. Hedon't
positively know how it was done ,
but he accepts the situation and
thinks he is not responsible , though
his purposes are carried out by the
result. B. L.

A certain lawyer's clerk had been
in the habit of taking an afternoon
nap. in the absence of the boss. On
such occasions lie had been in the
habit of putting up this placard on
the front door : "Gone to the Clerk's
office. " Some young men who had
witnessed the performance conclu
ded to play a joue at his expense.
Accordingly , ihey watched him one
afternoon , and , after he had put up
the usual sign , and dutifully laid
him-down on his lounge , thr y re
moved it and put the following
in its place : "On the lounge in the
back room , asleep don't knock
will wake up at 5 o'clock. Call
then. " A number of persons read
the notice and went away , wonder
ing what the country could be
coming to , when a young man
could thus fritter away time. At
last the young man awoke from his
dreams , and bis feelings may be
imagined when he saw what had
been done. Patterson Guardian.

Afr. Alexander L. Halley , whose
name is intimately identified with
the growth of the Bessemer Works
of this country , announces the fol >
lowing facts in connection with the
working condition of our Bessemer
Steel establisnments. The product
of American' Bessimer Works has
been steadily increasjnjr from vari
ous causes betterorganization , bet
ter refractory materials , and chiefly
numeious Jgrge aj } ( | small improve
ments in mechanical details. In
1868 an output of 500 tons of ingots
per month was barely reached in the
best works ; in 1870 the production at
Troy and Harrisburg had risen
' '
to about 1,700 ton's per mohthLm'ax
imum. Early In 182 the Harrisburg -
burg works turned out above 2,000
tons per month , and for a year or
more those and the Cambrlo Works
took the lead in this direction , the
latter having run as high as G4U
tons in one week. During 1873 the
Cambria , Harrisburg , North Chica
go , and Joliet works averaged 25 to
30 heats of five tons each per 24 hours.
During the week ending July 12 ,
1670 , the Havrisjnirg Works made
I86"hea'ts , " yielding 8QO tons of in
gots. The produpt of the Cambria
Works for the week ending Jan. 17 ,
1874 , was 18.9 hpats , giving 956 tons
qf iijgotg. Curing 34 noura ( Brjday ,
Jan. 16 } 4S blows were made , On
Friday , Feb. 13 , 1874 , the Troy
Works made 50 heats in 24 hours ,
yielding 267 tons of ingots. This
} s thp most rejnarkable run on re
cord. During the wpek ending
April 4th the Troy works made
195 heats , yielding 972 tons of ingots
gets , which is the largest week's
work. In January , 1874 , the Troy
works made 2,899 tons of ingots ,
and in April , the North Chicago
works made 3,526 tons , which is the
largest month's work. These are
all five-ton plants , consisting of two

POLITICAL NOTES ,

na has taken the stump in dafense
of himself.
The Democrats of New Jersey
will hold their State Convention at
Trenton on Sept. 15.
The Democratic State Central
Committee of Arkansas has called
a State Convention for.Sept. 8.
Third term sentiment is not so
strong in the South as it was. Its
advupates are ejther silent qr arp
qualifying their former utterances ,
Gov. Talbot's prospects of receive
ing the Tlepublioan nomination for
Governor of Massachusetts , are
thought to bo uf.
The enemies of the Republican
parry want Grant nominated for a
third term , but the party is too weak
toplay so thoroughly into the hands
of the opposition.
The Columbia , S. C. , Unian-Jfcr
aid says significantly : "It is worthy
of remark that United States Sena
tors Robertson and Patterson , with
all our Representatives Elliot , Rai-
ney , Ransjer , Wallace , and Oan }
are opposed to the renominaton of
Governor Moses , xmder any circum
stances. This means business.
There must be something In the
very ajr of Washington , hostile to
the re-election of the Governor. "
There is a chance for Gen. Butler
ia Massachusetts yet. It eeems
there was a ballot from the Labor
Reform Convention at Framingham
on Wednesday , and it is reported
that the bolters propose to hold a
Convention and nominate BuUor
To besuro it woulden't bo
much of a nomination , as the
entire Labor Reform party was un-
albe to muster men enough to war
rant the -putting forth of a btate
ticket.but it might do for a standing
point.
Senator Brownlow has a brother
who is as eccentric as himself. He
was a candidate for county register
in the recent Tennessee election ,
and the following is an extract from
his published appeal to the voters
for support : "Now , fellow-citizens ,
is it fair for this man Jarvis to grab
it all ? Sun , stand thou on Mount
Gideon , high In the heavens ; and
thou , moon , in the valley of Agalon ,
and witness , if you please , the en
tire annihilation" and everlasting
destruction of all who may dare op
pose those modem Joshuas on their
onward march to this little office.
Be ashamed , and get out of the old
man's way , and givt it to me for
one term , and then you may fight
over thereafter. " ,
