TUB New York Tribune publishes an extract entitled "How Snooks got out 'E it. " Some Omaha people would be more interested toknow "How Snooks got into it. " TIIE Illinois Central railroad has puid § 30,508,344 in dividends and re duccd its funded debt to 10,300,000 in twenty years. [ Ex. And still the corporation managers insist that railroading is very unprofit able and risky business in this coun try , and the profits from transporta tion are too email to warrant the cry of extortionate tolls. Ouii city council is extra economical t times. The law requires the mayor and council to publish official state ments of the financial conlition of the city twice a year. To save the city the expense of publication , which would probably be about § 10 , the council patsed a resolution to allow the papert to publish the report free of charge if they saw fit to do so. Now , as a matter of fact , no official report published free of charge will be correct , for the reason that it takes too much labor and costs too much money to publish an accurate statement. The publica tion may be made but the figures al- irys vary in some essentials , and no paper will put itself out to correct them without being paid at least for i'ie mechanical labor , whereas if the report was published officially the cor rections would have to be made , cost \vhat they may. THE BEE , in this cise , doesn't hanker after the fleeh pita because it costs more money to sot up Ibo figures than we could get for doing this work. But if ilia object of the law makers is to le cirried out , the tax-payers of Omaha should hare an accurate statement of the financial affairs of this city. TUE Lincoln Jourtiat is afraid that 1 the voice of THE BEE is too feeble to reach the capacious ear of Mr. Valentino tine and induce him to step down from the anti-monopoly platform of the republican party , with which ho is ' not in accord. It is not to be expect- i d that Valentine will step down vol untarily , even if Gabriel's trumpet ! < Sould blow into his carj but we ap prehend that the voice of TUE BEE will b3 loud enough to reach a suffic- iintnamberof republican voters tore ri der hiaelection dubious and compel the .vato central committee to replace Valentino by a man that doesn't stand convicted by the records of the J courts as a common swiuclbr.

It is not very compli mentary to the republican party that t ie 50,000 voters in Ifebrstkajshould te compelled to eupport a man to rep resent half a million people in con- g-ess whoso public career it tainted ' w.th corruption and fraud , and whota personal conduct in connection with the Sorurtnaheia scandal would bar him ant of reputable ocaetyi StTSISESS MEN AND TSB The business men of the nation have a peculiar interest in the success of the republican party in the coming elections. It is the party which pre sents tne soundest record on financial and commercial interests and which has never changed its policy to pander to the interests of one Eootion of the country at the expense of another. Twenty years ago tha republican party came into power on a great political issue. Having fulfilled its threat mission in saving the union and enfranchising two millions of slaves , the republican party in 1865 found itself face to face with a financial and commercial prob * 1cm almost as difficult as the political ona which it had just solved. The credit of the nation , the foreign and internal commerce of the union , the currents of trade and the interests of industry were committed to their keeping. Inflstion was king. Credit , trade , commerce and industry had all been buoyed up to an unnatural pitch by the unusual drains of a four years' war. Enormous consump tion had engendered a still more enormous production , prices were inflated , speculation was at its height , the whole country was living far beyond its income , and the coming depression was Inevitable. The crash came and every portion of the land felt its force. The able financeering of a republican adminis tration hid raised the national credit history of the treasury department. Millions of dollars of the debt had been paid off , and congress was en abled to relieve the people in their extremity of the most on erous of the national taxes. Amid the expostulations of the democracy , the opposition of financial fancies and the entreaties of many of their I own party , a republican congress held firm to a monetary policy which despite the distress then prevalent , they know to be for the best interestsC of the land. Two years ago the wis- dcm of the administration was seen and with the resumption of specie payments , a new era of prosperity dawned upon the nation , and to-day the business condition of the country is a sterling tribute to the economical -wisdom of republican ad ministration. Two years ago the country was still staggering under the mighty load laid upon its shoulders by an armed insurrection of democrats which cost the nation millions of treasure and countless lives to suppress. It is to the wiee , executive administration of the republican party that to day com mercial confidence is once more re stored throughout the country , that commerce has revived and trade is in an healthy condition. Itis to the unflinchiug endeavors of a republican administration and republican Ipgisla- tlmt industry has revived and that thousands of forges , spindles and looms , long idle , now sends forth 2 cheerful hum throughout the length and breadth of the land. A few days since , Secretary Thomp- . son's son slated that the Do Paws , ' plate gla s manuf.iclnrs of New Al bany , Ind. , who until recently were avowed democrats , had given their check to the republican state commit tee for 810,000 , saying that they bo- Ueved that the continuance of the re publican party in power was essential to the industrial interests of the na tion. In New York city hundreds of leading importers and jobbers have openly expressed the same conviction. Of the thousands of business men throughout the country a majority , if if they pafased to reflect , would acqui-1 esce in the same opinion , and when a field is onca seen to bo for their own interests and the interests of commerce and trade generally , the business mon'of New York , Indiana , New Jersey and Connecticut will follow the example * , of the business meninATermontandroll up a hand- aomo majority for the republican ticket. ACCORDING to the Serald , the ob1 1 jcct of inspection of the pipes is cot wholly to compel the water works company to live up to its contract. "Tho company itself , " says the Her' aid , "is more interested in having perfect pipe than the city cun be. They cannot afford to put in any other than the best quality of pipe. The loss would bo on them should they put in poor pipe. The inspec tion of the pipe requires an expert , and Mr. Cook , in the interest of his company , cannot afford to have any other than a skilled man to inspect the pipe. .Now , if it is true that the company ii more interested in having the pipe inspected than the city what is the U Q in putting the city to "the trouble Ici and expense of appointing an in- epector. Why not take it for granted that the company will carry out its contract obligations not only in the matter of pipe , but in the capacity 10of machinery and all that pertains to iho water words. It strikes us the Herald's logic ia not very tenable. The company doubtless is interested in having good pipe , but the company might consider it more economical not to have such pipe , ns the contract calls forinweight.qualityand workmanship. Reasonably good pipe raigh answer the company's purpoEo. This , how ever , wouldn't be carrying out the con tract , and if the city is ever to buy these water works , as they surely will within twenty years , prudence and common sense dictate that we ehonld have oompatent and skillful men to eupervise the manufacture of the es and see them tested. Mr. Cook , esof ofm course , being the engineer of the com paay , will now make it hia dutylo act in tbe interests of the company rather than for the city. "We might , with the saaje propriety , ask the contractors tractors of the eewers to appoint their ! owa inapsctcra as to ask him. : ? eeems to have add ed & wooden head tg Mswooden legs , BLA02 KILLS NUGGETS , Chinatown still continues to bother Deadwood. Deadwood recently had a 24-hour- go-M-you-please raco. The Whitewood toll road is being ' rapidly pushed to completion. The Rockerville Flume company has temporarily suspended work. .There is great excitement in Lead City over jumping of town lots. The fight for the couuty seat of Lawrence still SOPS on , with Lead City the strongest rival. There is great satisfaction expressed in a sunposed contemolate'J charge in the management of the De Smet mine. The Rochford hydraulic company will soon put a force of men to work on their property five miles below town. The first rar ° f e Spearfish academy adomy ha * beer nearly finished. Ad ditions will be made to it as they be come necra ary. A preliminary meetins r.f the Deadwood - wood printers was recently held , and an application for a charter for a typo graphical union will be made. The Homeitake company is having 17,000 cords ofnrrod cut and drawn for them , which is enough to run a part rf their mills , till nex * season. Th > re are 230 atampj unprovided for Btfll.

There Is great octlvHy throughout the Southern Hills. Several mine' in ih&t locality are developing finely and they only require milla to make them good paying properties.

Hi3 Career is Well Nltch Run. Senator David Davis gets himself before the public pgiin by wrMng a letter giving his reasons for support ing General Hancock for the pr < ? si dency. 3'hese reasons are not such as will commend the ecnalor to public favor or promote the election of Gen eral Hancock. They are such as might ba assicned by any disappoint ed man who had everything to gain and , nothing to lese by the success of his former rival. Senator Davis' political career is now well - nigh run. His term in the senate is rapidly approaching its end , and un less he can find in the next three years an executive willing to restore him to Ilia old place on the bench , which he abandoned , with much of the respect once felt for him , when ho launched on the sea of political intrigue in the hope of reaching the presidency , he must before another presidentiW convention of any party be so far forgotten as to be altogether beyond the power of resurrection. Calhounism ana Caucus Kmle. . The Cleveland Auzeiger prints the following editorial "Democratic . : pa pers are attemp'ing to deceive the people in rogsrd to the dangers which a victory of the south in the coming election micht proJiii-o. The south , theysnyj is harmless because without the BBsistanco of northern democrats it is in n hopeless minority. Such arguments , however , can only deceive those who are not acquainted with the pilitical situation. 'Kins ; Caucus' reigns supreme in the democratic par ty more than in any other. The cau cus political policy is determined upon and all resolves of the CAUCUS arc forced through congress under tnd party whip and spur. If , therefore , the democratic pirly is in full posses sion of the federal aovermiient hxt wing of the party which has the ma jority in caucus actually domineers in the land. The southern wing of th democratic party is in the majority , and the northern wing must submit in caucus or bolt ; but the northern docghfaces , after having tasted the sweets of office acrain , will never do. The southerners do not alone govern the democratic caucus , but they ulao control the mostjimportant committees In congress ; for instance , in the sen ate committees on privileges and elec tions , the military committee and the committee on foreign re lations the committee on commerce 'j ' nnd the committee on railroads. In the lower house the ex-rebels are in pcesession of the following chairman ships of important committees , viz : Appropriations , commerce , railroads , naval sffairs and public buildings. By moans of their majority in caucus and tha committees in possession usof the ex-confederates , they can brinp ; enough pressure to bear to hold the northern wing of the pir'y with its political intentions and propositions j . j always under control. A victory in ' November , i ; e. , Hancock and ademo- oratic majority in the lower houee oof congress , and the confederates re masters of the situation ! It es not absolutely follow that , in case of a victory of the south , another re bellion would ba aU immediately inau gurated. But the Uc principles and doc trines for wnich Lee and Jackson > fought for four years are not dead , and it will not tke long for the seeds cf rebellion , oown during a demo cratic adminiftra'ion , to develop into fell growth and bloora again. Forty tyc years were necessary before the doc trines of Calhoun in cte relation to state { overcignty and the right of secesfion bore ( civil -war ) their fruits. Cal- hounism is not dead , and as long as Jit IB alive the north most retain the relna of the government in its ovrn hands.

Garfleld'a Bravery. George Q. Gardner In T ie Sloaroo Sentinel. After the greit and sanguinary bat tle of Chickamaugal was bounl north on a twenty d ys' furlough. At Louisville I mot Generals Garfild and Steedman , GarficUl wa ? goii j f9 congrefs and Steedman north pn buM ness. We happened to co down tu the ferryboat in the fame 'bus , on top of which were Garflold's arTd Steed- man's negro servants. It appears that owing to the fact that the emancipa tion proclamation was not gcnerul , and .did ii"t at that time apply to Kentucky , that state's legisla ture Imd taken advantage of it and passed laws regarding the kidnapping and confiscating of every stray nrgro the cangs of civil officers and citizens could lay their hands on. Officers with passes were stationed at the le vees , instructed and authorized to sieze all negroes attempting to cro s the river on the boats , no matter where they were from. When we went on the boat we were all in igno- rence of this State Ian- , and of the fc * that a strong force of men were on the boat for the purpose of seizing any unlucky darkey who might ba goinc north with the union officers. My attention was first called to the far' by netiring o.nciot v.T > m"lU aek a nompotis looking man , "What do you want v .itb that bi > y ? " Hooked out of the 'bus window and noticed thit the man , in company with others , was ordering the two boys to get down from the 'bus and go ashore with them. The man , who claimed to be the sheriff , said the bov could not go across tho.river ; that ho should take possession of them , etc . and proceeded to force them off the boat. At this , Garfield and Stsednmi jumped out of the 'bus. Garfield W B mad ; ho told the o inso'ent men that he had been fighting rebels in the field for two year * , that he would now do some fiuhting on the water , and that if they did not leave the boat at onca they would get hurt. He stood between the negn es and the officers , and shook his fist in their faces , and dared them to touch the black boys who had eo faith fully stood by him in the camp and on the battle grounds of Stone Jlivor and Chickamanga. General Steedman Tras mad ; he pulled off his coat and marched Into the crowd , saying he ciuld tight such a white livered tot of rasela with good relish ; Chickamanga had had no terruri for him , neither hid kidnappers. It was an exciting time for thorn. While Garfield and Steedman wore getting the negroes away from tbe sheriff and his deputies , ua fellows in the 'bus were getting our revolvers ont of our valises , and we soon were out and forming a line of battle , ono deep and far apart , in the rear of Garfield and Steedman. The shcriti finally exhibited a disposition to tcke the negroes at any risk. GatfieU , followed by us blue coats , moved ui the enemy in force. They retreated "ri.jht smart" to the shore. The sheriff , from his safe place on shore , ordered the captain of the boat not to move the boat with the negrots on board. The captain then came to Gatfield and told him thai he , the ctptaiu , could not take the boys across the river without incurring a heavy fine , and therefore would not move the boat. General Garfield said he would relieve him of responsibility , so ho announced he would pilot the beat across if some ono would volun teer to run the engine. Upon several of the soldiers agreeing to do it , ihe captain caved and ordered the boat untied , saying he would take tbe crowd across and stop the tarxal fuss. The boat started sud the row ended. Vanderbilt enciHisMilitsns. How rich is Vanderbilt ? That is one ot these things no fellow can find out. But somebody has been making ' very ingenious calculr.tions as to what he can do with his money , and as this is quite readable we put it here for our'rcaders to table talk about. orT. Wm. H. Vanderbilt'a income from his i investments in fifty one million dollars lars four per c nt. government bonds is represented nt fire thousand dollars daily , which is two hundred and o.ght and a quarter dollars per hour , thiee dollars and forty-seven cents per min ute , or five cents per second. Assum ing that he is paid by the second , he cannot possibly spend hia money , as he could not select his purchases and lay down the piccfs fast enough. He could not even throw it away ; to piok up , cast , re cover , pick up , and cast again , would take him two seconds , and , if he worked all through the twenty-four. ; ) hours without rest , he could only dis pose of one-half his income. is3j living economically , saving up four years , he couldplacing his five-cent pieces side by side , make a nickel belt round the earth , or by converting his swings into one-cent pieces : and mounting them in a pile he would in twenty j ears erect a road to ihe moon , and have fiva hun- I red dollars to invest when ho got ; there. Should his amusements take a charitable twist he could out of a year's receipts donate to every man 1 woman and child in ihe United States twenty cents and hava money left over " Other vast possibilities occur to the following fancy of the calcula tor : "In one day he could go to eight thousand different circuses , eat ten thousand pints of peanuts , drink fire thousand glasses of lamon&de , and hive money left to get hia booti b'acked. ' He can afford to have five hundred thousand shirts washed in one day , and on the day of his death his income will buy ten first- class funerals " Leadvllle. Leadrille Tetter. Leadvllle has seen ita best days. Nearly all the most prominent min's are shut down , and those that are still running are working a very small Sift force , and the output of 'ore amounts fttc almost nothing. Not one-half of the men are employed that were last winter and a general dullness prevails over the entire camp and surrounding country. Since the miners' strike in the spring , business has almost come tc a stand still. A number tcol smelter are shut down also on account of not receiving ore. On Carbonate hill , out of the large rum- hiw of mines , there is not over one working , .and those that were produc ing largely up to last spring produce nothing now. The Little Pittsburg and Crysolite mines have scared off cap'tslists ' so thit it is almost impos sible to sail a mine now. The only relief for Leadville , as the railroads have - pot here , is after they are extended - tended to the diff reu 'nining camps she will draw her supplies of ore from them. f Proposed Telegraph to Asia , I Montreal > Witness.

We affirm the dnctnnes of national Rnvewitnitv in the formulate ; ! principles up n Which the perpetuity nl the nation rests and that the piinciplS of h me rule as enunciated by the democratic pirty is but the cautious etnreg'ion of the Calhoun doctrine of state rights , is revolutionary in jts diameter and destructive of the unity of the nation. 8. We regard the recent seizure of the polls and the wholesale robbery of the f'anchiees of the republican citizen" of Al abama , surprising in the magnitude and effrontery of the crime of all former efforts of the parly under the Tweed plan in New "i ork , and the Mississippi plan in the south , as n fair specimen of democratic method and n fnrecaRt of democratic do- ininion in national affairs that should in cite every honest man and taxpayer in the country to most ea < neat endeavor to de feat the partv of brigandage and fraud at the polls > n November. L We have considered "what fLee and Jacksnn would do if they were alive , " and have do'ermified to em loy our beat ener gies in preventing the seizure of the nation al government by their living crrarades through the frauds of the solid south. 5. We congratulate the people of the state upon the rapid increase of populft' tionand wealth , and uj.on the good meas1 ure of prosperity that has rewarded their labor , upon the rapid upbuilding of our material interests since the success of re sumption and the revival of trade. 6 We pledge our support to such legls lation in congress and such measures by state legislatures as may be necessary to effect n correction of abuses and prevent extortionate discrimination in charges by railroad corporations. 7. We most cordially invite tbe aid and co-operation in the latent defense of the national integrity and national purse of all repu'ilicans ' nnd war democrats who have differed with us on temporary issues , or have clung to the party name.
