MR. JESSE H. JOSES , tbe Boston
Ihbor reformer , has written nn article
on the labor problem for the July
number of the InfernafionaZ Beritw
Tvh'ch will attract a goad deal of at-
tention. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ -
THE decision of the oupreme court
of Indians , nullifying the constitu
tional amendments whereby Indiana
vas taken out of the HsC of October
Itatea , is a gosd send-off for the cham
pion straddler of America , Tom Hen-
dricks. _
Os the 14th of July the Irith-
.American Republicans will hold a na
tional convention at Indianapolis.
Not less than five hundred delegates
ire expected in attendance. Among
the signers of tha call is Gen. George
M. O'Brien , of Nebraska.
IT is strictly in accord with the
tj'ernal fltnes ot things that two o1
the Nebraska delegates to the national
democratic convention should he ap
pointed by the republioan governor of
Nebraska to'reprcsentthis state at the
national conference of charities and
cr motion * .
TttDEf baa written a loiter ,
tad it is alleged that it is s patriotic
letter. It is very fitting that he should
write a patriotic . letter , for we sup-
pase it ia the correct thing for a man
to be patriotic at some time in life. In ,
this letter S. .7. T. aho gives Rood
counsel to the people 'of tne country.
This is all well enough for harmless
e muaement , but the man who dodged
thelncome taxlevied to'assist in put
ting down treason won't have a very
brge audience among loyal people.
ABOUT two yeara ago Mrs. Sarah A.
Dorsey , an eccentric southern lady ,
bequeathed a valuable Louisiana plan
tation to Jeff. Davis. The relatives
of Mrs. Dorsey have contested the
will in the Louisiana courts on the
ground that Mrs. Doraoy was , previous
to her death , deranged in mind , and
furthermore that Jeff. Davis had gnin-
i the confidence and affections of this
generous lady by intrigue , deceit
aad trickery , with the sole
aim of securing her property.
One of the nephews of Mrs. Dorsey ,
now a citizen cf St. Louis , represent *
that he resided on the plantation some
yeara before her death. His aunt was
in enthusiastic worshipper of the
eouthorn confederacy in general , and ;
Jeff Davis in particular. Jeff who was
S ivited to the plantationasa guesttak-
iig advantage ofMrj. Dorsey'afoiblea
played the role of exiled martyr , and '
in due time bees-me a sort of father
confessor. After driving all the rela-
t'vee of Mrs. Donoy from the planta- :
Ken Jeff took possession of Mrs.
Jersey , ani when'she finally died be
came the heir of all her property.
The sequel appears in the following
telegram :
NEW OKIXANS , June 17. Jefferson
Davis , Jnbal A. Early and J. W.
Payne , testified In the case of the will t !
of S&r ah A. 'Dorsey , who left Davis

the ground of undue influence , wnich Is

' ' *
nit calculated 'to' aronse popu
lar admiraticn" ror enthusiasm ii
any community. The founderof'this ,
paper modestly withheld his riame.be-
cause he had no design to establ'shria
permanent daily"and h'ad'no ambition
at tbo time to be anything more than
an-amateur in'thBTJrofestionMf-'jour-
nalljin. Nine yeara of unremitting
labor have transformedUhe free gift
advertiiing sbe'et "of 1871into the
most influential and most widely
o'rculated daily in the Missouri
Valley. Tha marvellous success
of TfiE BEE has been accbnf
plished in spite of obstacles that
saemed at times almost insurmounta
ble. Stirting-vfiibout capital , without
political backing , in rivalry with old
established papers that were backed
by the most powerful corporation in
America , and all the leading public
mm in the state , THC BEE had to lit
erally fight its way through a best of
enemies who scrupled at nothing to
encompass its destruction. Durirg
these nine yeara this paper has weath
ered storms that wrecked seven rival
Omaha daHier , each of which wai got-
tea up with a view to superceding it.
Daring these nine years THE BEE
has foupht many battles of politial
and social reform that have convnlstd
this city and state from center to cir
cumference. Nearly all these contests
were fought against great odds and the
opposition of rivals allied with cor
porate monopolies.
The generous support which THE
BEE has received at tbe hands of , the
people of this city and state is the
most substantial testimonial of the
popuhr approval of iti courre. Meas
ured by this standard THE BEE is
practically without a rival in Nebraska.
During the past year its weekly sub
scription list has increased from 2700
to over 5000 , and in this
city alone where it has for
years enjoyed a most extensive
patronage the increase on the daily
during the past four months is
over 400 , reaching , with papers sold
by newsboys , an aggregate city circu
lation of 2000. No other piper in any
city in America of like population can
make such a showing. '
The key to this unexampled success
is tbe high standard of independence
which THE BEE has at all time main
tained in dealing with public men and
public measures. It has been our
pride notwithstanding false accusa
tions by envious contemporaries
never to prostitute the columns of
THE BEE as the subsidized organ of
any public mnn or corporaticn. Firm
ly resolved that this principle shall
govern its conduct In the fu
ture , as in the past , with the
determination that nothing shall
swerve it from exposing fraud , dis
honesty and quackery in every shape
and form whenever and wherever ]
found , to oppose all measure that are
in our judgement detrimental to the
public intereatjTHEBEEentersuponifs

bright and prosperous career.
IT frequently happens that the man
ager of a "boom" overdoes things.
This is juat the symptom manifested
by the Hancock boom. With Gen.
Tom Ewing as authority , Hancock's
friends aver that the democracy , in '
order lo stand any show of snccces ,
must cnooio for its standard bearer in
the coming contest , one who was nn- ;
nistakably and uncompromisingly a ;
inpporter of the Union during the re-
jallion. This attempt to steal re-
jublican thunder will meet with ill
luccess , for the democrats have not
he moral courage to nominate an ex-
Fedeial soldier , at the risk of losing
hot-headed "lost-cause" men in close '
southern states. It wili be enough
'or the loyal people of the north and"
he "bravo boys in blue , " to know .
bat shrewd democratic leaders appre-
iate the fact that a man's war record ,
n the Union cause is a good arga-
nent for his elevation to the proal-
lency. They wUl eee , too , rfiould
ho democratic party nominate euch a
aan as either Tilden , Bayard or Hen-
ricks , that the party is "not in
ympatby with those who believe that
Cl
he results of the war are unalterable. r <
Jetween such men and others
s well , who have some
how of being nominated ,
nd Gen. Garfield , it will not be harder
orhe citizen soldiery to settle whom tl
hey prefer to commit the charge of tlB
be nation. If Hancock shonld

eivo the nomination ho would not , IliB IliB

The refusal of the Methodist Con
ference which recently mot in Cincin
nati to elect a colored bishop , has called * -
ed out many expressions of regret and
even indignation from members of the
colored churches. At Philadelphia , a
Dr. Butler gave a plain statement of
his feelings in the matter , one day
last week. He declared that the color-
line was forced upon his race at the
Cincinnati conference. "When I ar
rived at Cincimnt1 , " he s id , "there
was a colored man to meet me.
When J. was assigned to my seat
it was amongst the colored
people , and I was appointed to
preach ia a colored church. " Dr.
Butler was a member of tbe commit
tee on the Episcopacy , and when he
went in it was at the bg end of the
horn , but his emergence from that
body was , he says , from the horn's
small end. Ho relates a "little history
of how the wool was pulled over our
eyes , as usual. " The committee re
ported in favor of a colored Bishop ,
but a equare vote in the conference
was not had. Men who had speeches
to make could nut get the floor , and
a motion for an * indefinite postpone
ment was "railroaded through. " He
added , in conclusion , that the quest
ion id one which must be taken up and
voted on , because the negro "will
naver remain indefinitely postponed. "

reputation cf being infallible.
Tbe shakes , or chills once broken

tracted again. This has made it an accepted
remedy , and trusted specific , for the Foyer and
Ague of the vest , and the chills and fevers of

'AVer's Ague Cure eradicates the noxious pois
on from tha system , and leaves the patient as
well ay before the attack. It thoroughV expels
.he disease , so that no Liver complaints , Rheu
matism , Neuralgia , Pycentery or Debility follow
tbe cure. Indeed , where Disorders of the Liver
md Bowels have occurred from Miasmatic Pois-
n , it removes the cause of them and they disap
pear. Not only is it au effectual nre , but , if
* ken occasionally by patients exposed to mal-
iria , It will expel the poison and protect them
rom attack , xrave'era and temporary residents
