CALIFORNIA LAN ! ) TROUBLES
A few weeks ago wo gave a history
t > f the land troubles in Tularo county ,
California , and our dispatches have
from time to time given accounts o
the conflicts between officers of the
SouthernPacific railroad and the liar
ily settlers who were fighting for their
homes.
The .equity and justice are all 01
ihe ride of tin settlers , but those men
who lived ecant'ly on ba ; < < n and beans
nhilo transforming the desert law
into wheat fields , were nntious t <
liave i > eaco and quiet. Their olTur to
pay the company 75 per cent of I ho
Hchedulo price of tholaudi was reject
ed. It is a characteristic trait of all
wifclders of monopolies that tho-
company should insist on the arbitrary
enforcement of * the tcchutca ! rights ,
imd in this case under the acts of the
assembly picked in the interest ol
corporations millionaire , Charles
Crocker wasfirnj.v _ The 'farmers ' were
for conciliation , but the railway com
piny had no soul aad the price they
finally demanded was only a reduction
of 12& per cent.
Aa good Und as the settlers took uj
can , naw bo purchased in their im
mediate vicinity for 50 conta pei
ucre , under the deseit laud act , with
$1 additional per acre after the land is
Improved.
Tbe settlers upon the railroad land
have spent from $5 to $10 per acre in
the work of irrigation. They hav
given five years hard work to this am
other improvements. They found the
lands parched by drought , a howling
wilderness. This tbeyhave transformed
Into fertile wheat field ? , and whore
before white beans would not grow ,
many of them are this season raising
their first successful wheat crop. Now
the railroad company grade the land
nt an average price of § Ip or § 17 per
ncro , and will listen to nothing except
n reduction of one-eighth from this
price. This is only for ordinary farm
ing lands. All the choice property
near Hanford is rated at much higher
figures. When one considers the rough
pioneer work these cottiers have done ,
and sooa liowj-much th'ey have added
to the wealth of the country , , ho is
forced to admit that they are entitled
not to 25 par cent off the railroad
rates , but to a reduction of one-half.
There is another phase of the affair :
which , however , serves in no sense as
n palliation for the crime of oppres-
aian on the part of the railway author
ities. It is said that the refusal of
these officials to effect a compromise :
is due to tfie efforts of several settlers
on railroad lands In the vicinity of
Hanfordwho paid the jjraded rates at
the time they took possession of their
land. These men , it asserted , have
done all in their power to inflame the
quarrel between the railroad and the
tettlers. It-i : hard enough to * be
Kround-aoralj monopoly , but to
have one's 'own neighbor-turn >
upon
you from miserly motives Is
Btill worse to ba borne. But this )
instance in California is no
great exception , for there have been
few difficulties where the rights of
hard working : people were at stake , i
when 'a few would not turn against
their fellqwstan4ltako advantage of
their plight to .manufacture capital for
theaaelfes. , StDl all justice loving n
people will surely hope to tee the
Tolire Eettlers well treated-and their
aerly bought homes scared tp them
AFTEE THE bKlRMISH.
The comments ofajthe republican
and independent pre'ss'upon _ lhev Chicago
cage nominations are ifnlvenallye fa
vorable. There has rjcciiho crowteal-
ing Mr. Garfield was nbfa candidate
" *
-fi t 3"
for the nomination rSKpr-to the con-
volition , aud thereforev''Provokcd no
opposition , made no political enemies
in hh party and created no antsgo-
nisms. The nomination of Gemral
Gar Geld was a surprise as much to
himself as to his patty. But it WPS in
every respect a pleasint and agrceibl }
aurprkoj.wjuch.ias.unitcd thc.parly ,
ranks aud given them now con
fidence for1 the'impending-
gle. The campaign will bo an
aggressive one. General' Gzrfield
is a representative republican , aTi'moi
of { the people who has fought'his jray ,
to his present position by sheer force"
of indomitable energy nd brilliant
talents. H's record as a scholar ,
soldier"and statesman , is opentfor In
spection , andlie challenges the strictest
scrutiny of his record. * i * >
Thechcice of General Chester A.
Arthur , was nn leas fortunate , and
was a happy concession to tie ! ptelwatt
strength of New York ; It ensures the
polling of the entire republican vote
of the Empire stale an > l the hearty cooperation -
operation of its le.vlors. Wlialeverinay
have bern the theoretical grounds of
objection to General Arthur among
curtain members of the party , his
personal and politic * ! integrity is
unquestioned. Hs ? administration of
the New York custom house was able ,
energetic , and tcrupulously honest.
Any difference between himsulf and
the present national administration
arose simply from divergent views on
matters of party expediency ; not on
questions of failure inofficial duly.
It is pleasing to note that abroad as
well as at homo the Chicago nomina
tions meet with the unqualified ap
proval of the best and mrst thought
ful iniudp , and it is still more gratify
ing to know that after the bitter and
uncompromising conflict of candidates
at the recent convention all cheerfully
and earnestly unite in praise of the
choice of the party standard bearers.
Such unity of sentiment bespeaks a
slioulder-to-shouldcr in
- - campaign ,
which all formerly discordant elemen'u
will join in supporting and carrying to
victory iu November the names of
Garfield and Arthur.
THE war between the railroads for
passenger traffic shows no signs of
abatement. There seems to be diffi
culties in the way of forming the pro
posed passenger pool which the trunk
line managers will find it hard to
overcome. In the meantime the pub
lic is clamoring for increnssd speed
between the east and west seaboard ,
and the gauntlet has been thrown
down and taken up by several of the
prominent eastern lines. The Balti
more & Ohio and Piltsburg & Fort
Wayne have added fast trains to their
time tubl < > , aud the Lake Shore and
Erie will bo compelled to follow'suit.
The great objection made by the rail
road corporations to such lucroaao of
ajisrd is tbo consequent wear and tear
upon the road bed and rolling stock.
The fact of the matter is that no road
could maiutiiu itself on the Atl-ntic
seaboard w Inch carried its passengers
on the flow-coach plau of the western
trunk linos. The public demand but
ter accommodation * ! , and if they fail
in obtaining them from ono road tlu > y
will give their rafronano to that line
which is most fully abreast with the
ra'lt , id progress of the ago.
THE selection of an Ohio man to bo
tbo democratic standard bearer al
ready scums inevitable. The demo
cracy are to well aware of the strong
pcKou.il following of Gcu Garfield in
his own state to neglect the claims of
the several prominent buckeyes with
in its party lines. The belief is
strong and still growing that Ex Con-
gresamanPayue , of Cleveland , is to bo
the man , since ho is stated to "stand
iu" with Tilden and is regarded as
Uncle Sammy'efhoir apparent. Gros-
beck , of Cincinnati , also is named , but
Payne with a bigger "bac'l" aud Til-
den'n support is looked upon as the
coming man at Cincinnati. The
Illinois democrats iu expressing
a preference for Chrkeon N. Potter
maniffflt a elesiro to wage war oil the
second nuu in the ticket and make
him fight Arthur in Now York as
Paj-no will Garfield in Ohio. "But
with such a ticket the republicans
have nothing to fear , but iu
any event with good men aud
noble principles the republicans are
sure of winning against such a ticket.
TIIE echoes of the British press on
the result at Chicago are generally fd-
rorable. The two ablest nnd most
uiutious of London newspapers , the
Pall Mall Gazelle and the now St.
Tames G < KI tie each predict that Gen.
Garfmldill be the successor of Presi
dent Hayes. As the editor of the
latter journal hai said , Englishmen
m > dispoicd to view our politics !
lucstions in n conscientious way after
areful study. These comments of
the victory achieved at Chicago , com
ing from auch able editors as John
Morley and Frederick Greenwood ,
nust not be overlooked , for they are '
ho judgment of men with more than
lational fame a careful and trained
political writers.
THE republican press is for the
lominees of the Chicago convention.

The action of the railroad presi- L
ienls was commented upon last night
y ra'lroad men as being very impor
an . There ras never been a pool of ,
.ho passenger business'heretofore on
iccaunt of the many difficulties and
iomplications wh.ich woujcl attend it ,

jy between the rival lines. For more

the railroad , managers , but apparently
little progress was made toward its
settlement The attempt to interest
the west railroads in the matter was
finally abandoned , as their representa
tives urged that the trunk lines should
first successfully establish a pool
among themselves before striving to
extend its operations to all their onn-
uectlous. If the present scheme is
carried out it is believed tiat it will
ultimately load to the adoption of a
general passenger pool as comprehen
sive in its extent as the freight poo1.
Bailroad men admir , however , that
there are almost innumerable obsta
cles In the way of a satisfactory passan-
tjer pool , by reason of the difference in
the character of the passenger basi-
nesH from that of the freight traffic.
It is , of course , intended that the
trunk lines shall abolssh the pay men'
of commissions for securing busine ?

The averaeo congressman always
endeavors to do something for his
constituents , for the ro on that what
ever labor ho expends in that behal ;
is really work for himself. Ho ia always
that hi-
ways under the impression
constituents need something from the
governmen , and he is always ready to
accommodate other congressmen
whoso constituents are equally neces
sitous. The most ready means by
which congressmen have been able to
magnify their importance at home ,
has hitherto been a liberal clamor for
an expenditure of public money for
the ostensible benefit of their own
particular districts. There is a cer
tiin bill which comes bef < re
congress at every session , which , by
common consent , has been inter-
terpreted to mean a combined appol
on the part of individual gentlemen
holding J seats in congress to themselves
in j the aggregate , to appropriate a cer
tain amount of money from the na
tional ; treasury in order to give them
the standing at home which they crave.
Every congressmen feels himself
bound 1 to do something for his constit
uents that is to say forhJmself-by
getting j an appropriation of public
money i to be expended in his district.
Hence it is that while there is a fierce
fight I over certain small economies of
the 1 government , when it comes _ to a
big 1 steal in which every individual
congressmen is about equally concern
ed , there is no difficulty in pacing it.
There two * methods of bleed-
inztha national treasury upon which
congressmen ara generally united , for
the reason that both of them , if suc
cessful , are a cheap porchwe of per
sonal popularity. Probably the chief
measure which the average congress
man has at heart is to get the United
States to start a building somewhere
in his district. That venture , how
ever , generally faih. He-generally
succeeds in havirg his bill referred to
the proper committee , and his constit
uents are loft to blame congress , in
stead of himself , f r the cruel manner
In which the committee sits down upon
it. But there ia a regular approprh-
tion bill which congress is always call-
eel upon to consider , and in this
the average congressman has another
chance of benefiting his constituents
that it , to say himself. Having
made his preliminary effort to secure
a public building in his dietriet , the
average congressman falls luck on the
river and harbor bill as a elernier resort -
sort to give himself standing with his
c n tituvnts. This year ho has plied
hia vccitiem with rcuurkablo success
The river and harbor appropiia'ios
bill as It passed the house appropriated
about § 8,000,000 , which is a larger
sum by § 2,000,000 than was over np-
propriatsd before for a similar pur
poao. It is not a very largo appropri
ation for the purpcso of river ami h r-
bor improvements. It would not be
difficult to designate several
points where the government
could profitably expenel that-
amount in the interest of commerce.
But the increased appropriation is net
founded on tbo wants of cjmmerce.
It has grown solely from the mutual
atempts of Congressmen to make po
litical capital among their constitu
ontw. The great Misissippi River has
received no more consideration , thau
say forty creeks which water tbo ia
vines of the eastern and western slopes
of the Alleghanics. For instance ,
there is § 15,000 appropritateel for the
improvement of tbo Shcnandoah a
river which can not bo made naviga
ble by an expenditure of § 15 000,000.
The river and harbor bill , however ,
went to tbo Senate , anel its appropria"-
tions were increased by § 2,000,000
llio Republican Pmtform.
New York Tribune.
It is a significant circumstance that
iu the midst of the excitement feVer
the proceedings of the Chicago con
vention , so little has been heard of
conjecture or discussion as to the
character of the platform. The con
vention had first to settle n question
wo do not say of greater importance
but of more immediate importance
than the formal declaration of the par
ly policy. The real point at issno in
the preliminary trials of strength was
whether the convention should bo nn
assemblage of the authorized repre
sentatives of the republican masses , or
x packed body composed of tbo agents
of a few republican "bosses , " notori
ously not in hwrnony with the voters.
Until this was settled it could not bo
iffirmed that the convention had any
title to speak for the republican party.
Now that the true representative
character of the convention has been
happily established , we tuin to tha
platform with the knowledge that it is
the authoritative expression of the
sentiments of the great body of re
publican voters. Fortunately there
lias been no great doubt as to what it
would contain. The party is substan
tially united on all the principal issues a
of the time. Its purposes 'are well
Icfinod. It has no blunders to apolo
gize for , no heresies to recant , no
schism * to dread , no difficulties to
jvade by a farrago of words meant to
larken counsel. It can turn back to
is declarations published four years
igo , with the proud consciousness
hat it has been faithful to tbo pledges
.hen madethatevents have vindicated
U wisdom , and that the vast gain
fhich the country has made in pros-
enty since President Hayes came into
iffico is traced directly to the financial
olcy of the republican party. In
nest respects the platform of 1880 is
cloro copy of that of 187G , save that
uuch of what wo promised four years
goto undertake we can refer to now
,1 a'raady accomplished. The con-
ention which nominated President
layes pronounced it the duty of the
lational government to discharge its
to its creditors , bnild up
he national credit , and restore pros- r
lerily by ft spcody return to ipeola
inatea President Hayes' Buccewor con
gratulates us upon a currency redeem
ed , credit strengthened ! griculture ,
commerce , and manufactnres ttoarish *
ing , and general prosperity ret b-
lished. All this has been effected by
republican legislation and the firm and
prudent management of the finances
by a republican administration.
The praise of President Hayes Is
well bestowed. It ia long since the
atmosphere of the White House has
boon so pure and the general tone of
the executive branch of the govern
ment so dignified as during his term
of offica. Able , honest , high-minded ,
patriotic , sincere , he has kept not
only himself but those around him
free from the brcith of scandal. He
hai administered his trust with an
t | evident regard for the rights and the
welfare of all sections of the country
alike ; and whenever the occaaion.has
arisen , he has proved himself a sturdy
defender of the principles of his party.
A forcible arraignment is made of
the democratic party for his hibhual
sacrifice of patriotism and justice to its
insatiable lust for office and patronage.
The specifications under this general
charge are severe , but no candid man
can say they are not warranted by
the conduct of that party during very
recent years Its efforts to destroy
the freedom and'purity tf the ballot ,
to seat congressmen whom the people
htvo refused to elect , to steal the en
tire state government in Maine , to
block the whaels of the national
government , to nullify national laws
and to cultivate the spirit of the re
bellion in order to solidify the south ,
make this plank in the platform as
just and appropriate as it is scathing.
The clauses respecting education ,
polygamy , Chinese immigration , etc. ;
repeated from the platform of 1876 ,
give fresh emphasis to the views which
are we1 ! known to prevail among re
publicans. Upon no part of the plat
form has there been any dissension
among the delegates , or any occasion
for compromise end shifty phrases.
The republicans know just where they
eland. Happy is the party which has
so litt'e ' to explain in Itt past , and so
little ueod to promise now things for
tke futuro. It ? acts have spoken for
it.

SANTA OLAUS FOUND.
Greatest Discovery ot the Age.
Wonderful discoveries in the world have beenmade
Lmong other things where Santa Clans stayed ,
Hiildren oft ask If ho makes eoodsor not ,
t really he lives In a mountain of snow ,
ast year an excursion sailed clear to the Pol *
ncl suddenly dropped into what secmedllke thole
rnere wonder of wonders they found anew land ,
rblle fairy-like beinga appeared on each hand ,
here were mountains like ours , with more
beautiful preen ,
nd far brighter skies than ever were seen ,
Irds with the hues of a rainbow were found ,
While flowers of exquiilte fragrance were grow
injr around.
Not long were they left to wond.r In doubt.
belli ? soon came the/ had heard much about ,
Twas Santa Clans' self and this they all say ,
He looked like the picture f ee everyday.
He drove up a team that looked very queer ,
Trras a team f prasshoppera Instead of reindeer ,
He rode In a shell instead of a slelzh ,
But he took them on boud and drore them
away.
He showed hem all uver his wonderful realm ,
And factories making ; goods for women and men.
Furriers were working on haU great and small.
To Bunco's they said they were sending them all.
Kris Kinicle , the Glove Maker , told them at once ,
All onr Gloves we are sending to Dunce ,
Santa showed them suspenders and many thlnys
mere.
Baying I alse took th se to f ritnd Bunco's store.
Santa Clans then whispered a secret be'd tell ,
As In Omaha every one knew Bonce well.
He therefore should send his goods to bis care ,
Knowing his friends win get their full sh.are.
Now remember ye dwellers In Omaha town ,
All who want present ! to Bunco's go round ,
For shirU , collars , or sieves great and small.
Send your sister or aunt one arid all.

A WORD TO THOSE WHO USE POROUS PLASTERS , H Is a unlreifnlljackowledged fart tint
BENSON'S CAPCINE POROUS PLASTERS ARE SUPERIOR TO ALL OTHERS.
The great demand for them has caused a number of unscrupu
lous parties to make and sell worthless imitations under similar
sounding names. As the market is flooded with inferior pias
ters selling at any price it is important for the consumer to
know Which is the best. It is well known that some of the
cheap plasters have been examined and found to contain in
jurious ingredients which make them dangerous to use , causing
paralysis and other diseases.
