GARFIELD , of Ohio. rOB V1CE-FBESIDEST , CHESTER A. ARTHUR , of NewYorl\ S5.0OO AND INTEREST. And now comes the Union Pacific railroad company through its attor neys and employes on the iloor of the city council with the modest request that the city of Oinalia pay over five thousand dollar and interest fruin the spring of 1878 to innko good a i repo sition or promise made by the cily ouncii tvwryears ago , namely , that if the U. P. company and the smelt ing works company speed ? 5000 each in rip-rapping the river , the cily would exp'end an equal amount. This very modest request cornea with very good grace now when the taxpayers of Omaha have just made the discovery that by an infamous piece of vgordemain in the last legislature the Uuion Pacific is henceforth exempt from paying a dollar of taxes on its bridge valued at over $1,000,000 by their own estimate , on its machine shops and machinery worth at the lowest estimate § 300,000 and its , depot and headquarters buildings toward which the city'alone went iulo debta quarter of a million. The Union Pacific corporation es capes entirely and doesn't pay a dollar lar of local taxes on all the vast amount of property it owns in this cily and county except alone its track. Every laborer , mechanic and clerk in the U. P. employ in now assessed and taxed for his baditead , his ccok stove , his sewing machine and every other article of household furniture. We most say we admire the coolness of the proposition. Five thousand dollars and interest they must have principal and interest , not a farthing less. And what is this S5000 claim for ? Why do they come at this late day to collect it when they could have presented the claim just as ready two years ago , when the circumstances of of the rip-rap job were still fresh in the public mind. In the first place , it is the climax of sublime impudence for the Union Pa cific cormorants to ask the city of Omaha a city they have naver kept fmjth vrith to i ooniril'Uto a-dollar to ward protecting their bridge. That bridge we all know has been a robber's tollgate these ninYyears , and in that time Omaha alone has paid not less than a million and a halt in tolls. That bridge should have been a wagon bridge with fare for passengers aud teams at rates fixed by the mayor and councilof Omahain accordance with the nnrepealed law passed by the Nebraska legislature in < 1871 at the instance nf theU. P. m nfcgen.jLnd. while"the city Is interested in protecting the smelt ing works from the flood , It must bo borne in mind that the grounds upon which these works'stand was generous ly donated to the Union Pacific rail road and is still owned by them. The city council of 1878 could legally agree to expend $5,000 for improving our river front , but it could not le gally delegate its authority to the Union Pacific railroad or any other corporation. That was the decision c f the city attorney then , and that was the reason why the city placed its entire street force , including men and teams , at the disposal of the Union Pacific to assist in the work. That offer was disdainfully rejected by Mr. Clark , and Mr. Poppleton , in behalf of the road , publicly announced that they declined to accept any aid from Oma- hi. And now , two 'oirs after that public declaration , these cormorants have the sublime cheek to present a bill for § 5,000 and Interest. Will Omaha taxpayers submit to such a highway robbery ? If they do they must forever hereafter hold their peace about any imposition , the Union Pacific may see fit to sub ect them. ALL this talk about the city record * having been tampered with to .do fraud the Union Pacific cormorant out of five thousand dollars which had been appropriated by the last council , it buncombe. The last council never voted such an appropriation. If it had so voted , it would have been illegal and void. It would have been an overdraft forbidden by the charter , and it would have been an unlawful appropriation under both the charter und the state constitution , which for bids such appropriations. The only thing the last council did was to pass a resolution that the Union Pacific was entitled to a claim ' /for 5,000 for rip-rapping the river. That resolution was within - . ' in itself an outrage on the tax payers. It did not constitute ? n ap propriation , * bufr it laid the foundation for a suit in which the resolution would be used by the Union Pacific as a confession of judgment , which finally would enabll the cormorants to whip the devil around the stump. OoHDcUmen who rere personally lia E ble for voting an overdraft could vote b a resolution declaring the cliim valid , a and if judgment was rendered , the U. Cl P. could g t th'eir money out cf the Clii iakiag fund witb4ut.an appropriation . of ; i KANSAS DtCL-AREJe ' WAR AGAINST : is just now in a whirl of ex citement over the indignity which she has suffered at the hands of Kansas City at the Grant reception Saturday. The governor of Kansas was invited to Kansae city on the 3d inst , and was tendered the freedom of the city. He was also allowed to leave when he got reidy , which privilege , Awoulc \ seem , he did not take advantage ol any too soon , and not until he had been severely snubbed and slighted in more ways than one. Other stite of ficers and distinguished citizens o : Kansas , who were there b y"special in vitation as the guests of Kansas City , as well as several fine military com panies from different parts of 'the state , and the Flambeau club of Topeka - peka , it is said , were treated in like manner. TheKansss papers haveinauguratcc a war on Kansas City , and especially the Kacsis City Journal , whose pro prietor Col. Van Horn is mainly responsible fur the ill-treatment of the Kan as dignitaries. The Topeka Cap ital indulges in the following com ment : The treatment accorded to Kansas at Kansas Cily during the Grant re ception was an outrage upon decency and propriety. The * Flambeau club , which added much to the occasion , and which is made up of our besl young men , was permitted to take care of itself sfter the. manner of a visiting circus. The governor and committees of arrangements and re ception , and honored citizens of Kan sas who were present by invitation , were ignored , snubbed and in sulted by the incompetent ano infUted nincompoops who 'Lad charge of the affair. The 'Flam beau Club visited the Journal office , and after the usual cheers on the part of the club , were informed by a clerk that "any feller that wanted some , ice water could find some in the o'ffice. " Our boys were so overcome by this exhibition of generosity that a reso lution of. thanks was at once passed. The regiment of Kansas militia that turned out to assist Kansas City in this celebration would have returned home without marching but for the courtesy that was felt b } ' our boys to bo duo to the Craig Rifle * for their splendid hospitality. The generous treatment the Kansas militia received at the hands of the Craig lilies is in fact the one redeeming dooming feature of the occasion ; We leave the settlement of the reaponsi bility of the boorish treatment a'nc miserably botched arrangements of the whole aflair to the Kansas City people plo through their papers. They can -sattlo the family quarrel as it suit them best. One thing is very certain it will bo a long time before any vor larpe number of Kansas citizens , th Kansas militia or the Topeka Flam beau club will take the risk of "helping , in another celebration at Kansas City Of all the towns on the continen where a Kansan would expect to be treated with common courtesy , Kan aas City should be first. The town depends upon Kansas for its life Take Kansas trade out of Kansa City , and it would sink back to a town of 10,000 people. The grain , the cat tie andTpurk of Kansas help io mak < the great young giant the wonder o the continent. Missouri is no more to the future of Kansas City than Texss is and if the ill-bred treat ment Kansas received at the Gran reception reflected the sentiment o the business men of Kansas City the people of central and southern Kansas would soon find other markets to pur chase from , and to which to senc their wealth of stock and produce. Kansas asks no special favors , bu demands fair and courteous treatincn nit ! . . * > tlf * * Mt ooFebratfoif is got ten up-whether Kansas is4nvited or not , the people of Kansas City will greatly aid their own cause by placing citizens in charge who will not engage in studied discourtesies as did those who managed this Grant reception. Inviting gueats to their own city with the premeditated intention of in sulting them is an exhibition of low vulgarity and petty spitefulness that n would be hard to believe sny civil ized ton guilty of without the unan imous testimony , of eveay Kansas man who went to Kansas City to tee Grant. Our Melghbors. St Joseph Herald. Lincoln , Neb. , has'13,595 people. Atchison , Loavenworth , and Topeka , Kan. , are about two thousand ahead of Lincoln. No one can toll which city Trill lead in 1800 , but they will all bo in a flourishing condition. We think wo should place Atchison ahead She is becoming a pork and grain csu ter to a considerable extent. Lincoln has a fine railroad system. Topeka , also a state capital , has been built up by the Santa Fo road and its shops , aud now has a rolling mill. Her re cent growth has been very rapid , and of her stability there is no question. Leaven worth is engag ing in manufacturers , and has a coal mine that is a mine of gold. Her darkest day has passed and it has been dark enough dark enough for the most beautitul town in the west and the one that has cDntained the hioet marked men. On the south of her is the penitentiary , which is the state manufacturing establishment. On the north is the fort , the fincsC1 town owned by Uncle Sam. These two mints coin monoyfor ; Leavenvrorfh. f All of these tow.iis will prosper and will quarrel. Atchison is the "only one with commercial prospects , and she is only nineteen miles from the acres of warehouses in St. Joseph. Those of us who have lived on and near the river for a 'quarter of a ceu- tury have no conception of the west that is right tinker our noses. Wo huve not mentioned Omaha , Kansas City and Council Bluffs. Each is full vigors-success and growth , as is our own tit , Joseph. Who imagines the size of these towns , even to-day ? We give it below , placing K. 0. whtra she belongs and not whore a fraudulent census has placed her ; it is a peculiar ity of K. C. that she cannot vote , hold a primary moetinn ; or enumerate her people , without committing the same crimes that fill her papers with a daily record of sin that is without a parallel.

No one would have conjectured that these neighbors had nearly 200- , 000 people. Ten years from now they will have 500,000 , aud yet grow no more rapidly thsn they have dur ing the past decade. Suppose wo irrigate the plains and have barge lines to St. Louis and those are the next two enterprises in order then our west , now a vacan't space , "will fill up and these wilt ba great cities in fact. THE BED CLOUD PONY BANCH. Correspondence of The Be * . RED CLOUD JULY .2. Every sum mer several herds of ponies are bought from Texas or from the west , and are disposed of-in this part of-the country. Dealing in ponies is a lead ing branch of business in these parts the country , partly or wholly de- , vok-d to graziag. It furnkkes esa- ployment to many men. In visiting Jhese herds of ponies , and seeing the wild ones JasBOoed , a person often sees feats performed equal to those of any circus. The Williams brothers deal exten sively in horses and cattle , and they own three ranches. Their horse ranch is on the Rock Creek , in Wyoming abont forty miles west of ForiLaramie. They own 1,700 ponies. G. W. Williams - liams is now in Red Cloud with a herd of 300 fine northern Texas horses some of them half breeds. He has just brought them from near Dodge City.

Governor St. John , of Kansas , wants to be renominated. - * * * * The national greenback labor party has opened headquarters at Washing ton. Senator Windom expects to make twenty speeches in Ohio during the campaign. Senator Wallace says that Pennsyl vania will give the Democratic party 10,000 majority. The Nashville-Tribune says that Bob Toombs his come back into the Union and will yoto for Hancock. Governor Bishop wanfs Io go teA Co ijres8. ; Governor Bishop's "wants" politically would fill a "quintuple sheet. " Each one of the four Presidential candidates is over six feet high , and "weigtTover 180 pounds , and each one is in the best of health. "Gen. Hancock , " said Senator Hoar in Faneuil Hall on Wednesday night , "is1 not he representative , he is the mask of the Democratic party. " The New-London ( Oonn. ) Telegram predicts that Gen. Weaver's Green back vote for President in that State will look very respectable under the head of scattering. Gen. Singleton , who was renomi nated for congressman in the Eleventh Illinois district last week , received an enthusiastic reception on his return to his homo At Quincy. The name of Judge Agnew is brought forward in western Pennsyl vania in connection with -the seat in congress which is to be vacated by Senator Wallace in 1881. Fifteen of the newly-elected mem bers of the senate of Oregon will hold over and take patt in the election of a United States Senator in 1882. Of these , ten are republicans , giving the party-a good start. The Hon. Godlove S. Orth will again be a candidate for Congress in Indiana if the republican district con vention , which moots on the 14'h inst. , complies with his wishes and gives him a renomination. The greenbackers of Ohio are to hold a State convention in Columbus on Wednesday , 28th inet , to nomi nate candidates for presidential elrc tora and for the state offices to ba filled at the election in October. G > n. Slocum declares that Hancock "will sweep the country Hko a hurri cane. " Gently , general ; not so mnch devastating wind. It's early in the canvass , and that sort of thing is too violent. [ Chicago Tunes. The registration of voters in Boston has already begun. Last year the numbf r of voters registered waa 53XK ( 2,000 less than the presidentia election of 1876. It is thought the registration this year will not fall far mhort of OOfOOO. There Tre now three Hebrews in Congress Messrs. Jonas , Morse and Einstein. In the house there are six German R present tive3ainong whom are Heilman. of Indiana , Poehler , of Minnesota , MuUer. of New York , and Deuster , of Wisconsin. Gov. Hoyt , of Pennsylvania , expresses - presses the opinion that the demo cratic party weakens Hancock to a greater extent than he strengthens it and that the combination can't win because the people will discover that the mixture of candidate and princi ple is incongruous. Thek Pittsburg ( Penn. ) Telegraph says that Hioster Clymer has with drawn from the congressional race in Berks county , and that this will in sure the nomination of State Senator Daniel Ennpntrout , who is a man ol marked ability and the democratic leader of the state senate. A Nasby Letter Tdlrteen Years Old , Now Bepublished .Noo PIUEANS , Dec. 1C , 18C7 . To IIu Epglericy A. Johnson , president uv the Yoomted Statfi ; I found Nee Orleans in a tremor of joy.

Bizuesa' there fore goes on without delay. Ez a sample of how much biziness is facili tated ; I may meushun that in one coutt there wuz 44 cases in which pig- gcrs wua plaintiffs and 45 in which niggers wuz defendants. The tryin uv all tfiose cases okepied 3 hours and 19 minutes. The vordics in the 44 cases being invariably fur the defend- unts aud in the 45 other cases fur the plaintiffs.

" l r - In tiddishtm to this boon , the citizens - zons uv Loosiana bed , I am happy to elate , got back to their habta copuces. Gineral Hancock , with a , courage which I can't-too highly commend , ashoored the people that so long as he ! iad power here they should never agin ba deprived uv em. \ In Texas affairs are going on as wall ezcood ba expected. ThejGinoral's ! order fur holdin' olecshuns gives gen eral satiifacshun to our friends. The ' elccshens are to be hold only at county seats , wich , owin to the size uv , ho connties will , probably prevent a ; reat many uv the niggers from at- endin1. Then wher a judge of eleo- shun can't sit , the clvii authorities , ppint another in his sted , insted of he military commander , wich our rieudi think will give us a majority on the elecshun boards , and finally hot which pertickerllerly binds Gen. lanoock to us iz that pare uvhiz order which prohibits the military from bem at the polls. It is eggstremeiy probable that the Etheopean uv Amerikin dcsent will be generally per- waded not to vofe at all. The citi- his no Tsns uv Texas hev a way -perswad- - ing the niggers when they aint uncon- titooshunally interfered with , that will , I think , enshoor the triumph uv oarrect principles inthat state. A 0 native Texan , a gentleman who is now 0B 0w n New Orleans a purchasin cartridges 0k ur 7-inch revolvers , to be used-in re- k lonetructtn the state , gav.e me sich in- it ormashun g $ preclooded th necessity itti tip uv my going jeronally to Inspect. p The land owners of Texa * , witk an ardent desire to avoid distress in that state next winter , both fur themselves and the colored popnloshun , hev wise ly determined tht the niggers shell work whether or no , and in sich a way as to make their work profitable. They are going to form labor leagues , the object os which is to extract from the nigger the labor that is layin dor mant within him , at about $12 per month. They hev mootooally pledged themselves to pay no more than $12 per. mouth fur able-bodied nigsers durfn the workin season , deductin the board and so forth for their families ; and , further , that no one will employ a nicrger from another naburhood on less he kin show permishun from his laat employer. They hev other reels for the proper regulashnn uv this per verse people wich is hardly worth memhunin , but probably it would be as well. One is that if the wagea uv a nigger is more than is eat up by the family expenses the nigger shell work it out the next season , and that the supplies upon which they live shell be furnish ed by the employer upon such terms &s a committee uv employers la each deestrik shell agree. To prevent mismanagement uv the soil by these undeveloped inteleks , and to enshoor their acceptance of the laws , It is also a part uv the league that no land be leased or sold to any one uv Afrikan blood , and that ez much uv the wages eztbe employer considers proper be retained in hiz hands. They accept the situashun and acknowledge the bindin force uv emansipashun , but they must regulate labor themselves. It ia tho't that by Hvin faithfully to these regulashuus cheap cotton kin bo agin prodorsed in Texas. Ef thislefltslaluriz ducted ez wo hope it will be , this code will be made a law , and thank the Lord cmansipashun wont mean nothiti in Texas copt a change uv ntme. I wood suggest tint you , at wunst , take the last order uv Gen. Hancock and make it the subject uv a messige to congriss. Detale in full the gen eral's talk here , and add to it ez only yoo kin. Tell concjriss tbe general is agoin to make the law the roul uv bis conduck , and that he proposes to up hold the corts and civil au thorities , and will only yoos his military to these ends agin the niggers. Sling in here sutbin' to the effeck that Amer ican liberty ( which , in this country , is a pekoolyer variety of the article ) is Etill an inheritance uv the white people ple , and shall all us be. 'Tell em that when a soljer hez onlimitod power in his hands , and refooses to yoos it for the ptirpooa of satisfyin selfish anibi- shun , ho presents a hefty sample uv virtoo under diffikulties. It wood be well at this pint to compare Hancock with Washington , makin tbe differ ence atween um merely nominal. Say that there may be officers in the army besides Hancock who imitates Wash ington , but you havent sot eyes onto em ea yit Assert that Hancock is the first officer in command , sance the close uv the late onpleasantness , wat hez given utteruna to sich sentimence in his orders , and demand that con- gris shell vote him a gold medil. I sejest that this be done to wunst , for reasons which are obvus. We de sire Hancock to continue in well-doin , but ez that well-doin in our behalf mite lead to his nomination for the presidency , it iz well enough to kill him off in that dtrecahun as soon as he is committed Hence write.

( Wich is Postmaster. ) Hancock and Tilden. St. Louis Gjojje Democrat. The standing of Gen. Hancock with the New York Democracy is admirab ly illustrated by the fact that pre vious to his nomination he was nol acquainted with Tildon , Although a resident of New York for years , the hero of order No. 40 and the victim of the Democratic Electoral Commis sion were strangers to each other. Il is remarkable that Mr. Tilden ahoulc thus ignore a man of Presidential mag nitude , and still moro remarkable that such a statesman as Gen. Han cock thould not have sought an in < timacy with one whom he could not but admire. It looks as if the two men felt that there was some kind of gap between them which neither deemed it worth while to cross. As there Is no known special ground of dislike between them , the lack of cordiality in their re lations is doubtless due to Tildeu's democratic , dislike of a soldier. He knew Hancock only aa a major gen eral , and instinctively avoided him for the society of meaner men. Han cock's only chum among the New York politicians appears to bave been Baldy Smith , a Tammany member of the police board , and an old army ac quaintance. Baldy was turned out of office by Mayor Cooper , but the supe rior court has just reinstated him , thus giving Tammany an important victory over _ the regular democracy. Under the circumstances , Hancock is exceedingly unfortunate in his best friend , for , next to John Kelly , the .man whom , the regular doitt'ocfScy mrst despises is Baldy Smith. Baldy did not accompany Hancock as chap , eron on the occasion of the latter s late vfrit to Tildon , for the reason , srobably , that his presence would not lave been altogether acceptable to the venerable sage. Tfie ceremony of in troduclng the present democratic c.-jndidate for the presidency to the ast ono could not , it seems , be per- ormed by any New York politician. These statesmen of the same political 'aith , who have been neighbors for manyyeais , formed each other's ac quaintance under the auspices of Sen ator Wallace and Henry Watterson , he former an original Hancock man and the latter a devoted friend of Mr , Tilden. Hancock and Tilden being now on visiting terms , the former is fairly in training for his letter of ac ceptance , which will be a document of. considerable interest , inasmuch as its treatment of the fraud issue will bo dictated by Tilden. The acquaint anceship thus begun ought to survive the campaign , but there is no proba bility that it will. Tilden will have more USB for such as Hancock after defeat than he had before his nom ination.

WonuvrfuldiBCOve'rlefl in tht world hive been made Among other things where Santa Claus stayed , Children oft ask if bo makes eoods or not , If really he lives In a mountain of snow. Last year an excursion sailed clear to the Pole And suddenly dropped into whatseemedllkebhole Where wonder of wonders they found a now I and , While fairy-like beings appeared on each hand. There , were mountains like ours , with more beautiful green. And far brighter skies than ever were seen , Birds with the hues of a rainbow were found , While flowers of .exquliite fragrance were grow ' ' ing-around. Not long were they left to wonder In doubr , A being soon came they had heard mnch about , Twas Santa Claus'self and this they all say , He leoked like the picture f teee every day. He drove up a team that looked very queer , Twas a team f grasshoppers instead of reindeer , He rode in a shell instead of a sleigh , But lie took them on boud and drove them away. He showed them all over his wonderful realm , And factories making goods for women nd men. Furriers were working on hats great and Email , To Bunco's they said they were sending them all. Kri * Kingle , the Glove Maker , told them at once , All our Gloves we are sending to Bonce , Santa showed them suspenders and many things more. * Saying I also took these to ftlend Bunco's store. Santa Clans then whispered a secret be'd tell , As in Omaha every olio knew Bunce well , He therefore should send his goods to his care , Knowing his friends will get their full share. Now remember ye dwellers in Omaha town , All who want presents to Bunco's go round , For shirts , collars , or gloves great and small , Send your sister or1 aunt one and all.
