The doctor was discovered last night at'enipting to dispose of faoJ while his watchers' backs were turned. It's another case of the Tan ner tanned. THE attempt to patch up a friend- nhip between ( ho Taminany and nnti- Tainmany factious in New York is about as hopeless as reconciliation be tween St. Louis and Chicago nitico the census returns. THE colored population , generally refuse to enthuse for Hancock. There is too much of the hue of Louisiana butternut about the General to suit thc'rcpresentatives of a disfranchised ' people. THE wails over the results of the census arc increasing. Dayton and Peoria , claim that they have been hamefully neglected by the enumera tor * , an.l the latter phce insists that * leaat 3000 of her population have been . . -ted from thJ ( } ] sif R .g unnecessary to j . D ton nor Peoria have a . for emigrants. THE distrust of the South , shown by emigrants and capitalists is beeing freely brought out by the cen- BUI. Georgia and Texas are the only states under Confederate rule which appreciable gain in population or industries. Th politi cal intolerance and financial dis honesty which has marked the his tory of Democratic administration in these states south of Mnson and Diron's line give the lie to the hypo- crital professions of the democracy. AND now the Indiana democracy are fighting over what might hive been in Cincinnati. The Indianapolis Jour nal claims to have good authority for the statement that there was a period of 12 hours In the Cincinnati conven tion when the lion. Joseph E Mc Donald , of Indiana , could have been nominated for president if the IJen- driclts men had withdrawn their op position , but that it was necessary to the interests of "the favorite son" that McDonald should be slaughtered. Ay exchange quotes the following touching little tale relative to the conja ncction of the late Samuel J. Tilden with the democratic nomination for the presidency : "Jim , " said his fond mother , "aren't you going to marry that girl that you've been keeping com pany with so long ? " "No , " replied Jim , in pensive tones , while his brow slowly corrugated , "I am not. " "Why not ? " inquired hi maternal. "Well , ma , you see , it's just here , " explained Jim ; "I proposed to Rachel Jane , and elitj asked mo to excuse her , and I was d-trned fool enough to do it. " GENERAL SUEKMAN positive'- } re- fnaes to deny that Hancock , in 187G , d > d not openly announce his intention of obeying Mr. Tilden's orders if he took the oath of office. Gen. Han cock's sold claim to the presidency so far , at advanced by his party , rests on his loyalty to the government which educated and supported him for being loyal. His open announcement of disloyal intentions in the presidential embroglio of ' 70 will not help his can didacy. : P TIIE tremendous hurrah with which * the democracy hailed the nomination of ( icnernHJanceck js already beginer ning to gurgle in their throats. The party organs are commencing to ex plain that victory is not gained by cheers before the battle or by under- cjtlmating the opposing forcec. Just at prcsonf the condition of the de mocracy in Now York is well worth nl thn attention of that party. The stita atylirgo positively refuaea to 011- thuse over the Cincinnati nomination , and the various democratic factious in the city are too busily engaged in a for pre-eminence to pay the necessary attention tj campaign speeches and Hancock and English banners. will Those of the republican party who are disposed to "be faint hearted thus lish early in the campaign , will do well to remember that for sixteen years pa t no o-ory presidential contest has been ers o.Mned with air-rending democratic houtc of victory. When George B. McOIellan was nominated in 1864 , the sh juts were loud and long. The nom-1 iill str initioii of Sayrsour in 'C8 was a paral tute lel caie with apa'ellel result. Horace Greeley died of dicapptinted expecta tions raised by the democratic hur A. ife rahs at the opening of the campaign. ( It is one thing to win a battle on paper first hat another thing to conquer at the did billot-box. The leaders of the dem- , , 1 by ocracy are beginning to see .that the ' lican coining'campaign will by no moans be from s waltc-orer , and" from present indica tions before tha contest -is over they be brought to a still greater re * Uzatioo of bat TBE S5.000 RIP-RAP JOB. The flimsey pretext nnder which a majr-rity of our city council voted a resolution instructing the city a'tor- ney to confess judgment on a bo us claim of the Union Pacific for S5000 and $1000 interest , for rip-rapping the Missouri river front is indefensible. Every councilman before entering upon the duties of his office takes the solemn oath that he will support the constitution of this state and live up to its laws. The constitution of Ne braska , article twelve section two , reads as follows : "No city , county town , precinct , municipality , or other sub-division of the state , shall ever make donation to any railroad 'or other works of inter nal improvement , unless a proposition BO to do shall have been Grst submit ted to the qualified electors thereof at an clect'on by au'hority of law. " Now the propisition to donate § 5000 or any other sum to the Union Pacific railroad for improving the river front ha neverbeen submitted to the electors of this city , hence every councilman ofwl who voted to instruct die city attorney - ney to confess judgment tor § 5000 and interest , claimed by the Union Pacific , violated his oath of oilice. PaNi Nut only was this donation voted in violation of the plain letter of the constitution , but also in violation of tho'fundamental law under which the city council exercises authority. The city charter expressly provides that all public improvements , such as I paving , niacadcniizin.5 , grading , &c. , shall bo let to the lowest reiponsiblo shbii bidder. The rip-rapping of the Miss - a niri river front is a public improve ment i , which could ouly bo lawfully . uudeitaken by the city through aeon- tract ; with the lowest responsible bid der. No attempt was m&de to let the dewi work , but t' o 5,000 which the connw cil voted to the Union Pacific is in the nature of a donation expressly prohibited by the constitution aud charter. The fact tl-at this ? 5000 claim" is illegal ' ' , wm well known to the Union Pacific attorneys. They knew that Ihe city attorns/ would beat them In courts notwithstanding the fact that this fraudulent claim had been en dorsed List winter by the city council. They knew General Alaudorsoii never would stultify himself by confessing judgment , -hence the U. P. employes in the city council were directed to pull through a resolution instructing General Manderson to confess judge ment on this lawless claim. .Will . -'iral Manderaon obey this insnriic- horn. v. . . . . _ , J " afford to stultify him self as the Icj-ai . . . . . . , , J _ . . . , -r of the City by confessing judgement i. . , J , , T ' unlawful T j r i i - t and fraudulent cLumf. What was John M. Thurstou doing down in' Lincoln all the winter ? What , were the- other railway attorneys doing there ? Bee. We don't know about Thurston , bu the attorneys for the other roads were there , partly for the purpose of secur ing to the Buriington & Missouri and Sioux City roads the privilege of charting - ' ing as much for the ferriage of passpn Hers and freight at Plattsmouth and Blair as is charged for bridge tolls a this point. And now will Mr. Rose water inform iu what ho WHS doing ( Ji.it time to prevent the legalizing o thuso "infamous" ferriage charges ? Republican. Mr. Rosewuter was not aware tip to this date that any special law authoring ! / ing the Plattemouth aud Blair ferries tuai charge fifty cents per passenger and ten dollars per car lear for ferriage across the Missouri had ever passed the legislature. If such a la was sin jggled through it does not in our approval and wo don't hesi tate to denounce it as an outrageous imposition , for which , the last legisla turo deserves to be forever execrated. juBi But what' justification does that act furnish for the highway robbery atVi the Union Pacific toll gate ? Why should the Union Pacific endow ed with princley subsidies built with the people's money , bo allowed to op press the people under cover of i P'cl charter ? . Will the Republican explait toN thUjcommunity and the producers o ) Nebraska , why one dollar is chargi-c for every ton of coal transferred at 0.bi and why the price of fifty bushels of corn is confiscated for transferring throe hundred bushels ot | , corn accross the Missouri. Tbe Out Look In Indiana. Imliaiupoli-i Journal. We are in receipt of numerous in quirics from various parts of the coun try , in regard to the political situation here aud jrobitblo outcome ot the campaign , aud in reply thereto will make a general statement. We have already said that the chances of re public > ui success in Indiana are bet ter this yc r than they have boon for several years. There are various reasons for this. The party ia entirely harmonious and free from the sliuhU'st disaffection of any kind , either general or local. The national and state tickets give unbounded sat isfaction. The greenback party is not nearly to strong as it was two years ago. Thou it cast nearly -10,000 votes. This year it will not cast half that number. The republican party will benutit very materially by this change. The national democratic ticket is not popular in the stato. The leadrri1 , a the politicians , and the press may say what they please ; wo say the national democratic ticket is not popular in Indiana , and time and the vote will prove it. The moss-back democrats , auti-war and anti draft men , and original cjpperheads , do not like Hancock. Hundreds of them not vote for him any more than they would for Greeley. Mr. Eng dots not strengthen the ticket in this state a particle. He is personally unpopular , end hii candidhcy creates euthueiasui , either among the lead or the rank and tile. Whatever ap poaranceof euthu-iasm for the ticket there may be is artificial and superfi- . It does not extend to the demo cratic masses , and will not list. It ill never reach the underlying sub stratum of Bourbon voters who consti the backbone of the'party. The republican campaign will be vigorous , X ) aggressive and thorough. The Hon. G Purter , candidate for governor , not only one of the best speakers in his or any other state , but he is a class " .mixer" aud election- cerer. Ho will make a splen campaign -and will bsably assisted the other candidates on the repub * ticket and by popular speakers outside the state. In short , no effort will be spared on the part of the tbe republicans to utilize the favorable con . ditions which undoubtedly exists for day redeeming the state from democratic control. OCCIDENTAL JOTTINGS , - * California. After all it is said , that the peach crop of the Sierra foothills is excellent. The fl-ax crop of Ventura county will , it is thought , be worth $225,000 this year. A sugar beet crop , 700 acres , in Los Angeles , is estimated to ba worth S75.000. Five thousand two hundred pounds of mohair wera shippad from Merced direct to Nt-w York recently. Dr. Glenn has something over 47- 000 acres of wheat to cut this season , I and this will be the biggest he ever hid. .Henry Dewey , of Plainesburg , MerceJ county , has just completed the brgesfc heider in the world. It mojsures in width thirty-four feet. Vice President Huntington , of the Central Pacific railroad company , has hat sent from the east to Los Angelas a lot of cofFVo and date palm trees , which have been distributed to proper parties for culture in Southern Cali fornia. One of the moat enterprising and energetic farmers of Bakersville has ' about fifteen acres of Egyptian corn on his ranch , about twelve miles up the river. Ho believes it will be the most profitable and productive of the cereals , aud especially adapted to the climate. The g' Id dry-washing machi.ie wan recently tried at Oroville. Out oV 503 pounds of tailings about a pound of black sand was extracted , in which could be plainly scon about 25 cents worth of gold. The whole opoiation was performed in less than five minB utes. Beet seed planted at Florence , Los Angeles c unity , on the 20th rf Janu ary , h ve already developed roots weighing over tbree pounds , and po- larizul Oi per cent of sugar. Some of these beets , dwarfed in their already finished growth in a dried out sand streak , po'arized 17i per cjnt. The advantages of irrigation are well shown in Merced county. Near the county seat one firm has 2000 acres in wheat , all of which was irri gated , and which will yield a splendid crop , the heads averaging seven inches lon and containing from 100 to 130 grains each. Fields in the immediate vicinity which were not irrigated pro duced nothing bu1 hay , the grain hav ing been cut before it matured in or der to prevent its entiie . ( W. A. Neville recently struck a pocket of extraordinary richness in op tratin : ; his gravel claim at Red Hill , near Butte City , says The Amador Ladijer Out of a very small space ho took § 20CO. Large chunks of gold were met with ; one wortli , § 53 , an < ther § 41 , while pieces from § 10 to S20 were very numerous. But the largest nugget taken from the claim and indeed the largest obtained in Amador county in gravel mining for j't'Mra was picked up by Mrs. Ne- v.lle.

Several mines in the neighborhood of Tombstone , are claimed by a num ber of parties , and there have boon shcfgun demonstrations among the claimant ! ) . Titles to some of the lo cations arc getting very much mi.\ed , and the lawyers are looking forward to a harvest. The track of the South Pacific rail road is laid six miles east of Benson. The graders are near Dragoon pass. Large quantities of railroad ma'crial are being pushed to the front. The foundations fur largorailroad machine shops in Tucson are being laid. " i ct Shad are being found in large quan tities near the mouth of the Columbia each year , and will no doubt become staple article. Sufficient iron to build about nine I di miles of the road between Albany and . Lebanon has already arrived , aud as j ac the grade stakes are all placed and everything else in readiness , work on I a. the road will commence shortly. , of News has been received that Nez Perce Indians have assembled on fo prairie in largo numbers Pi threatening war , and that the settlers with their families are fleeing to Bit.

Helena stone masons , who now got § 6 per day , are said to be dissatisfied and are on the eve of striking for § 7. Gallatin county recently received a colony from Missouri of 100 persons. They brought with them twenty-two earns , and were otherwise well out fitted. Almost every merchant in Butte has from one to one hundred tons of reight at the terminus , for which the brwarding companies can procure no meins of transportation. The Algonquin mill at Philipsburg . in very successful operation. In the three months and twenty days during which it his been run the sil ver product has been 120,000 ounces , or upwards of § 135,000. Advices from the placer mines at Yogo are not a encouraging now as they were a few weeks ago , although more is known regarding them. The placer mines are too deep for men without capital to work , and this fact alone prevents further develop ment by the greater number of men who sought the mines last season. Many new ranches are being start ed and very many now comers are to be observed in the Sun and Teton valleys. Improvements are steadily going forward , among thesois _ an ex tensive irrigation ditch or canalwhich s being taken fromthe , , South Fork of Sun river , with a capacity of nearly the entire fluid of that stream , and is being carried over the thousands of valuable acres along the valley of the main river below. Of Cooke City , the new camp , The Buzeman Courier says : It ia located 101or the north eide of Soda Butte creek , which is the northern bounda orO . It is on a gradual slope , one- ourth of a milo wide and two miles long , and has been remarked by all hero as the most beautiful town site n the mountains ; besides , plenty of water and building timber.

An immense quantity of snow is in the passes leading to Skagit , a'I of which cannot bo melted before Octo ber. News has been received of the total destruction by fire of the Cowlitz Catholic Mission , Juno 30th. This mission was built in 1839. There are myriads of < ? rass-hoppers in and about Diyton. Already far mers are reporting that they are ba- ing considerably damaged by these pests. Idaho. A large amount of freight is arriv ing in Boise Basin. Cattle raising is becoming quite an Interest in Owynee county. Pack animals can now be taken to Mount Estes with but little trouble. Galena-bearing ledges are being dis covered on both sides of the Narrow , on 'Lost River. Pieces of ore taken to Idaho City from the Panamint mine by James Monroe wer over half native silver. Snake river is rising rapidly. The Caters are backing up , and the slough's filling , su u..t travel has been driven away up the bench. There is plenty of water and the placer mines of northern Idaho are J1Jj Jj being extensively worked this season. The whole of that section of the Ter ritory promises to be exceodincly lively j during the prasent Reason. Two railroads are being built , and l | rge _ numbers of itnigran s are ar riving weekly and locating farming lands. Utan. The Horn silver mine has recom menced the shipment of bullion. The snow in miexpoFed places on the tops of the Wasatch mountains is still thirty feet deep. There is no question but many val uable mines are yet to be opened in Park district. Grading on the Utah Eastern rail road is finished through Coalvillu and is about two-thirds done between Park City and Hoytsville. The grading on the Sanpeto narrow gauge is finished , and the work of laying the iron will commence imme diately after the ties are laid , which' will bo soon. The census enumerators of Emery county had a rough time of it. They found the streams high , and in same instances had to tie their schedules iu oilskinr , drive their bronchos in tbe foaming streams , and ferry across by barging on to the tails of the ani mals. mals.As As compared with this time last yrar , the ore product of the territory is considerably leas. The heavy snowa of the winter prevented the customary winter work in mines , which amounts to i considerable , and the consequent melting has flooded mines so that little has been done on them since spring opened. Everything about the Ontario mine and .nill , in Snake canyon , is working smoothly. The machinery is all in pi-rfect working order. The Cornish plungar will soon bo in the new hoist ing works , and together with the en gine for operating it will cost in the neighborhood of 150,000. There is now a half million dollars worth of ore in the ore houses. A species of largo worm , similar to the ordinary potatoe worm , has re cently made its appearance in some of the .southern settlements of the terri tory. It is injuring the crops very seriously at and near Bellevue. The cotton crop at Washington is also suf fering from its ravages. The inhabit ants there speak of it as different to at any worm previously seen in that lo cality. Colorado. Pueblo's Gas works are a fixed fact. Greeley is to have a new railroad depot shortly. The prospects for hay on the Color ado ranges are very poor this year. Eight feet to the mile will be .

Tie Denver , Middle Park Pacific | BCT railway and telegraph company is an organization for the purpose of build ing a railway from Denver to Hot Sulphur Springs via Ralston creek and Rollinsvillo. Many of the prospects of North and South Cotton wood and Four Mile , all in the immediate neighborhood , have been worked until high grade ore has uncovered , and as soon as capital can be enlisted will take rank as riah mines. There are yet several placer mines be worked above Breckinrldge on th Blue and it ; tribut tries. The 1 mountains ' seem to have been less thor i oughly prospected than those below Breckinrldgo. On the 1st , a terrifL storm of fain , wind and hail passed over Boulder. The hiil was largo and caused a creat anuunt of damage. An investigation of the extent of the damage shows tint at least'one-half of the crops In the valley are totally destroyed. The Fairplay Flume , says : Nearly all who went from Park county to the Gunnison this spring , hive returned and are emphatic in their assertion that the chances are better here than there. The mineral wealth of this county is proven by years of explora tion and discovery. Wyominer. Trout fishing is excellent in the i mountain streams. Old Fort Bridger is now again lively military camp , it-hating been garrisoned. The commissioner of the general lincl office has apportioned ? 10,000 for surveys in Wyoming this year. Rxwlina will mike an effort to open a roa 1 t : > Fort McKinney to secure thu stage route and trade of the Big Horn country. The exodus to the North park seems to bo temporarily checked. People are waiting to see what the prospeda are to bo in regard to the mines before they rush in promiscu ously. The principal towns in Wyoming return the following enumerations. Evanston and Almy , 177C ; Green River , 381 ; Rawlins , 1481 ; Carbon , 72ti ; Lirainio City , 2480 ; Cheyenne , 214n. 214n.Grand Grand county , Colorado , is endeav oring to capture North Park. Lari mer county also claims it , and now the authorities of the latter county talk of bringing a test case to settle the matter. A live slock company has been or ganized in Cheyenne upon the co op erative plan. The capital stock is I' half ' a million , and the field of opera tions may extend over Wyoming , Montana , Idtho and Oregon. One hundred houses have been built in Park City and Jack City , and both towns are still building up rapid ly A mill has just gone to JackCity and a smeltbr is on the road. The snow is about gone oa the range , and the grass is nearly knee high In the North Park. A transfer is reported to have been made of the celebrated Platte hot springs to a syndicate of Rawlins cap italists. If there should be no drawbacks - backs and the lease iVcompleted , this will be a great help to Rawlins , as the partlesleasing ) propose to at once erect a mammoth hotel at tha springs , ru pair the road up the south and west side of the Platte , build a bridge at the springs , and put on a dally stage line from Rawlins as well as to thoroughly advertise the medical qual ities of the waters. A celebrated case which atVucted much attention has just beer. decided by the Wyoming courts. The fee bill was passed by the last legislative as sembly and was signed on December 13 , 1879. A few days afterward thst bill , with others that became laws , were given to the secretary of the territory for - afe keeping. The day followingtheir receipt the fee bill was stolen. As the enrolled bill was the only full copy of the bill made , the question rose as to whether the fee bill was law , since no authentic copy was in existence. The court holds the law to ba valid.

Wonuvrful discoveries In tbe world have been made Among other things where Santa Claua stayed , Children oft ask If he makes goods or not , If really he lives in a mountain of snow. Last year an excursion sailed clear to the Pol * And suddenly dropped into what seemed like thole Where wonder of wonders they found a ncwland , tVTiile fairy-like beings appeared on each hand. There were mountains like ours , with more beautiful green , And far brighter ikies than ever were seen , Birds with tbe hues of a rainbow were found , While flowers of exqutilte fragrance were grow Ing aronnd. Not long were they left to wonder In dotibr , A being soon came they had heard much about , Twas Santa Clans' self nnd this they all say , Bel eked like the picture f tsee 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 fcleizh , But he took them on to d and drove them away. He showed them all over his wonderful realm , And factories making goods for women and men. Furriers were working on hats great and small , To Bonce's they said they were sending them all. Kris Klngle , the Glove Maker , told them at once , All our Gloves we are sending to liunce , Santa showed them suspenders and many things more. Saying I also took these to friend Bunco's store. Santa Claus then whispered a secret he'd tell , In Omaha every one knew Bnnce 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 , AH who want presents to Fnnce's go round. For shirts , collars , or gloves great and small , Send your sister or annt one and all.
