THE SOUTH UNDER GENEBAL
QAHFIELD.
With the advent of General Garfield -
field to the presidency and the change
of parties in control of the national
government , the South turns over &
new leaf in her history on which she
is to be permitted to make a record
for good or for evil. Four years ago ,
when President Hayes first held out
the olive branch to the southern people
ple by his appointment of Gen. Key
to the postmaster generalship , an era
of peace and reconciliation was confi
dently predicted by her political lead
ers.
Northern people were told by men
like Lamar , Gordon and Wade Hamp
ton that the south was ready to &c-
copt , not only the results of the war ,
bnt also the guarantees of the consti
tutional amendments , And a > falrTote
and an honest count were promised
as the results of what was believed to
be a new policy in the treatment of
the southern-problem. Two'years later ,
by the return of the democracy to
control of the senate , the south re
gained the reins of government in-both
branches. The leading committees and
most valuable oUicei in the gift of the
democratic majority were handed over
to men who had lately borne arms
against the government Southern
leaders were consulted by President
Hayes , the utterances of Southern
journals open the oondltien and needs
of their section were given due weight
in cabinet councils , and an earnest
endeavor was made by the chief
executive as well as by the dominant
political party to break down the bar
rier of conservatism and bourbonism
which separated the two sections.
Without entering into details , it is
enough to say Chat the attempt was
wholly and entirely unsuccessful ,
and Mr. Hayes realghed his
office leaving the problem aa far
from solution as when io first
took it up. And in this condition h
has turned it over to his successor.
General Garfield .has happily com
mitted himself to no definite line of
policy excepting the broad declaration
that the national laws shall be respect
ed and enforced in this as well as every
other section of the country. He
has flung no sop to Bonrbonism at
the oatset of his administration and
entered into no truce with men who
boast ; of. their lawlessness and defiance
of justice end right. But his record
in congress leaves no doubt as to the
course which he may be expected to
pursue. Gen. Garfield's admiu'itri-
tlon will bo friendly towards every
movement OL the part of the south to
wards political or social development
His advocacy of the Burnsldo educa
tional bill , his former speeches on be
half of internal improvements in
southern states and bis well known
views upon immigration and Industrial
progress , all point to this conclusion"
On the other hand , so far as a vigorous
enforcement of the national election
laws is concerned , General Garfield
may bo classed among the stalTt-t .
His administration may be depended
upon to uphold the hands of the de
partment of juitica in making the
ballot free , the count fair , and the
liros of aonthern republican * secure.
It is for the south to co-operate with
the new administration in its des refer
for her welfare. Let it emancipate
itielf from the slavery of political
hatred and devote its best energies
towards building op the waste places ,
and by-industry and fairness towards
all classes lot it invite immigration
and encourage capital to inv st
itself within its borders. With
the assurance of political and social
freedom attho south , the southern
problem will be entirely eliminated
from national politics. Southern
questions of policy will then bo treated
as of no greater moment than if they
orlgloated norjh of Mason and Dlxon's
lino. With the question of the politi
cal rights of southern voters settled ,
greater attention will be devoted to
the economical needs of this great
eection of- the country and a
republican t coigress will gladly co
operate in this respect with the ad
ministration. The position of Sen
ator Mahono and hia manly
denunciation of bourbon political
methods in the past may mark the
opening ol a new era for the south.
If it proves the first breaking of the
shell "of sectionalism and political
hatred , which has crippled trade ,
prostrated industry and stunted the
growth of the southern states , Gen
eral Garfield's administration will
hare little to do bnt to help on the
good work thus auspiciously begun.
OMIHA U now advancing with rapid
strides tojthe position bf a great metro
polis. Public and private enterprise
are joining hands iu her midst to
enable her to outstrip , in the race for
commercial supremacy , all her former
rivals. She is entering upon a year of
development which will outrank any
of Its predecessors. Every business
house hi the city is occupied. Dwel
ling houses cannot be procured and
the demand for both classes of struc
tures will strain the efforts of our
architects and builders during the
coming souon. A number of
new manufacturing enterprises will
locate in our midst during the present
year. It is highly important that
under such favorable auspices Omaha
ahoaldhave a city government which
will assist and oiot retard this rapid
growtb. Improvements , much needed -
od , have been provided for under our
now charter. The city has been
granted the Drlvilego of voting $100-
000 in bonds for sewerage and other
purposes. This sum will have to be
economically -expended to accomplish

Wyoming's Future.
Cheyenne Leider.
Wjoming has a future , and a good
one. In the past decade the youngest
territory advanced rapidly. She more
than doublwl her population , un
covered many resources , and bade
farewell to roving bands of red men
who had stayed the progress of civili
zation. Taking into consideration the
condition of the territory in 1870 , the
progress made during the decade end
ing in 1880 is simply marvelous.
It must be borne in mind that
Wyoming is situated among older , and
honps better developed states and ter
ritories. These have had the bsnefit
of ago and prestige to aid them in sa-
curing capital for development But
they were years in getting this much.
It takes time to advertise , explain and
induce capitalists and others to settle.
Neither Ilome nor & territory was
built in a day. Wyoming has a Rood
start and is on the fair road to un
bounded protperity.
Let ns briefly review the situation :
While the principal attrastions of the
weat seem to be mines and farms ,
Wyoming can furnish these and more.
Her resources are more varied than
even those of Colorado. Taking into
account the business Interests in the
order of their prominence , we find
that stockgrowing b likely to main
tain the lead for years to com * . It
has donbled in three years and will
continue to inoroase in the sante ratio.
There are still millions of unoccupied
acres of the public lands in the north
and northwest portion ot the territo
ry that are awaiting appropriation by
the enterprising stock growers. Whole
valleys covered with luxuriant grastas
lie idle ; bat this will not Ust long.
The oaihing , spreading ttock growers
will [ find ranges for their increasing
herds , and ( when all the ranges are
filled there will bo nntold millions of
cattle in our young territory.
Mining cornea next in Importanca.
While there haa not been much pros
pecting , enough is .known to warrant
the statement that before the taking
of the next census there will ba
thriving mining cities in the lower
Black Hills of Wyoming , in the Wind
river mountains and in the
far famed Big Horn range. Already
there are paying mines at Rawhide
Buttes , Silver Crown and G'-inito
Canon in this country ; at Cummina
'City , in Albany county ; at Douglas
oreek and Ferris , in Carbon county ; at
Atlantic , Miners' Delight , South Pass
and La Barge , in Sweet water county ,
and at Bear river , in TTinta county.
Outside of. thoto districts there are
thousands of square miles of moun
tains of mineral formation that have
never been trod by the foot of clvi-
lizod man.
Owing to the mining excitements in
neighboring states and territories ,
prospectors have not yet thronged our
mountains as they will In the future.
And when they do so there will bo
unearthed mines just aa rich as any
that have as yet been discovered in
the west It is not in reason to sup-
posa thst golden and silver wealth has
been stacked up all aboat us and that
"Wyoming has been left out in the
cold. When the back bone of the
continent wss formed , nature did not
know that a section of it , vor 300
mlles'long , would one day fall within
the geographical lines of the youngest
territory in the government cf the
UfiJUod States. Wyoming has all tao
fMMqulsites for a great producer of
precious metals , and our predictions
will be verified at no distant day.
Agriculture in Wyoming is yet in
its infancy. The farming regions
have been the last to become free of' '
the roving savages. Bat the fair val
leys of the north and northwest are
filling up anuringly , and farms , farm
houses and villages are springing up
where only a fewyeara ago the buffalo
grazed in quiet retreat , disturbed only
by the chase of the Indian. Water is
plentiful in these smiling rales ; but
all crops need not be irrigated. Riius
are frequent and copious , and farming
is therefore rendered profitable.
Every year the number of emigrants
to the farming regions increases.
Settlers vre sending for their friend ? ,
and then hundreds of others are pour
ing in through choice. In a few years
these regions must become the mora
populous In our territory , unless the
rapid development of mines keeps
paoo with the increasing population.
In this connection it would be well
to call attantion to the fact that Wyo
ming should have a board ot emigra
tion consisting of good , live and com
petent men who are really interested
in tha population of our broad acres.
The simple disreminatlon of fscts
properly compiled would bring & horde
of good citizens.
Then Wyoming has immense de
posits of soda that are perennial in
character. This soda has been tested
and found valuable tor many pur
poses , notably that of making glass.
With soda by the square mile , and coal
in like proportion , equally convenient
to the rallroad.'and men of energy
and capita ] , a manufacturing empire
could be built up within a few yean
In Carbon county. Already a line of
railroad hss-been surveyed from the
Union Pacific to those" rut deposits ,
and it is the intention to extend the
road and open other &ew and rich
'country. Coal la found all over the
territory , and even near those solid
mountains of iron'that stud the land
far and wide.
At a point'forty miles north of the
line of the TJ. P. ' road , in TJintah
'County , there are .Incalculable depos
its of coal , the veins being 75 feet in
thickness. Thia rich region will soon
be traversed by the new branch of the
U. P. " road that will ba built from
Granger to connect with" the Utah
and Northern in Idaho.
Why should we not hope for class
manufactories , blast furnaces , steel
converters , rolling mills [ Wyoming
has one large rolling mill ] and various
factories where iron enters largely In
to the raw materials ? While on the
subject of factories , it may be men
tioned thai a company of capitalists
are now figuring on the erection of a
large beef canning foctoty ou the line
of the U. P. road in this territory.
There is still another important in
dustry that has just come to light
within a year or two. It Is oil.
Wyoming has two vast belts of oil
bearing territory that yield as good a
quality of petroleum as is found in
the famous wells of western Pennsyl
vania. One of these fields is in the
extreme northeastern corner of Wyom
ing , near Jennings Stockade , and the
other ia in Sweotwater county. Either
is large enough to supply the entire
west with kerosene. Oil refineries
muat of necessity spring up to convert
the crude into burning oil. This , too ,
will add wealth , population and in
" " " " '
fluence. .
Them are doubtless still other re
sources of a profitable character , lying
burled -ia our undeveloped hills and
vales. Every year will add a new in
dustry.
The Yellowstone national park , sit
uated in the extreme northwestern
part of Wyoming , Is growing In inter
est frith each successive year. Its
myriad wonders , rivaling "Arabian
Night" atorles , are an attraction to
all. The travel thither will grow
year by year. Recognizing this fact
the Union Pacific management will
this year build a branch road from
the- Utah & Northern to the park.
This will prove of vast good. And
then the' road will ba extended
through the park and into the public
lands subject to pre-emption. Hence
development and increased population
follow. The road will reach farms
which will be called upon to supply
the health resorts peopled by invalids ,
who will psy valuable tribute to the
territory.
' By this time wo fane ? that the read
er is ready to agree with us that Wy
oming has a brilliant future. The ob
stacles that stood In our early&path-
way have been brushed aside and there
is nothing serious to encounter in the
future. A good and.clear course lies
bafore ua. Let us gird up our loina
and renew progress from the milestone
of 1881 with fresh inspiration born of
a knowledge of the fruifs that will fol
low persistent and well applied toil.
Tha ontsldo world is gradually learn
ing our'wealth , of which we have over
been so modest , snd people will flock
to our borders BO that our population
will have trebled , , if not quadrupled ,
nhen the ceusus-for 1890 is inscribed
in the bright'decidal pages of the na
tion's history.
Indiana's Great Reform.
N. Y. Herald.
The adoption of the amendments to
thb Indiana constitution at the elec
tion which has just been hold ii in
one respect of very great importance
to the whole country. In general
electi&ns Indiana is transferred from
the list of October to the November
states , so that in the presidential con
tests in ( he future it will cease to bo
a guide-post' in our quadrennial bat
tles. Pennsylvania made a similar
change some years ago , and , although
it deprived that commonwealth of
something of its importance in deter
mining the.result , the gain to it in the
greater purity of its clectitna has
more than compensated for whatever
UBS it may have sustained In political
prestige and > dlstinction. "As Penn
sylvania goes BO goes the Union" has
become a political proverb , and eo po
tent was the tradition vith.tho poli
ticians and the people thav. every four
yeara the wirepullara and machinists
of bpth parties employed every cor
rupt , illegitimate , and questionable
expedient that could be conceived oi
to determine the October verdict.
The _ ballot-box was de-
banoho'd , Bribery was almost
openly practised. Doubtful districts
were colonized. False counting was
the rule , and the party that had the
moat money was almost invariably
the victor. When Pennsylvania de
cided to tske this great reform step
she1 ceased to bo the spurt and chut-
tleoock of the baser sort of our poli
ticians , and , aa we sr.vr in the late elec
tion , Indiana and Ohio became the
.field of their peculiar activity and en
deavor. In thisrespect both parties
were equally criminal.One of the
Dew amendments changes"all'this , and
the change is a great gain , not only to
Indiana , but to the whole country.
Value of German Immigration.
The commiasionerof emigration for
the German empire on the 28th of
February last submitted his report for
the year 1980 to tha German reicbstag.
He ascribes the extraordinary emigra
tion from Germany , particularly to
the United States of America , to dif
ferent causes , among which the follow
ing are the most important viz :
1. The flourishing condition of all
agricultural , industrial and commer
cial punuita , which offer the frugal
and thrifty emigrant better occasion
to Improve his condition and to secure
a home in a comparatively short space
of 'time.
2. Relatives and acquaintances of
many of the emigrants Jiavo for years
resided in the United States , and , by
their encouraging letters , containing
promises of all sorts , they persuade
them to leave their old homes and
strive for a new and happier one iu
the Now World. On this second
paint the commissioner comments as
follows :
In msny cases Germans residing in
North America who desire their
friends and relatives to emigrate to
the United States purchase tlcketn of
the steamship agents in any of the
larger cities of tho. Union , and for-
rard them to Germany. Thus during
the year 1880 at least 1C per cent of all
the emigrants going to the United
Stales were iranaported to Amer
ica on such tickets , purchased in
that country. At the eamo time a
not inconsiderable number of the
smaller class of the German free
holders kave also emigrated to the
United States after they were success
ful in disposing of their small estates
at fair prices. In ccy opinion a con
siderable number of this class of
property-holders are at present only
prevented from emigrating because BO
far" they could not realize a somewhat
decent and satisfactory prica for tbolr
real estate and other posieislons. As
compared with the previous yearsj the
number of those emigrants going to
America who , fudging from all appear-
snces , were pecuniarily wefy situated
In Germany , has graatly increaseo .
The fsct that the better situated
classes'of Germany have , during the
LastHf teen month's , 'begun ' to emigrate
to the United States has thus far'beon
very reluctantly .admitted by only one
or twp ( papers printed in Germany.
Bufflinco the pr6p emigration offi
cer of- the Grman empire admits the
truth oE the-statement so reluctantly
made'we must" accept it as correct.
A Prussian cavalry officer regards the
horse of greater value than the sol
dier who r.ides it , The government
jets the soldier for nothing ; for the
horse it has to p y money. As long as
Glernun emigration to the United
States consisted chiefly of the poorest
and Jo west classes no material objec
tions were made ; the government only
lost men , bat no hones. Sbce the
peculiarly well situated classes
are emigrating to this country Bis
' " Deutsche
marck's organs , the "Nord
Allgemeine Zeitung" and Klaslng's
"Daheim , " howl against emigration to
North America , because now Germa
ny not alone looses the men ( soldiers )
but also tha money ( horses ) . And
here we might ask in what consists
tha value of an immigration to the
country of his adoption ? Dr. Engel ,
the great German authority on statis
tics , in his pamphlet , "The Price oi
Labor , " places the average cost of
raising and educating a laborer at $40
annually for the first five years , of his
existence , at $50 per annum for -the
next five years , and at S60 per annum
for the succeeding-five years , making
a total for fifteen years of
$750 , which Is , in other words ,
the amount "necessary to pro
duce a laborer , to do labor in such a
manner that the results scouring
therefrom can be recognized and
valued in dollars and cents. As a
matter of course the country to which
tho-emlgrant moves receives the benefit -
fit of the outlay in money which waa
neceessry to raise the individual. 01
the German emigration to the United
States , over 75 per cent are between
15 and 40 years of age , consequently
in the prime of their vigor and life.
The by far greatest number of them
rely upon the labor of their hands for
support That these $750 expended
in raising the laborer is not too high
an estimate is corroborated by the
statement of a well-known American
statistician , Edward Young , who
places the value of an immigrated
laborer at 8800. But If we put the
labor of a German immigrant at $500 ,
and the valua-of his clothing , othei
goods , and money , etc. , he bring !
over , at only $100 , Germany loses OB
100,000 emigrants per annum $10-
000.000 in money and $60,060,000 in
the value of laboring capacity , being
a total loss of $60,000,000. Accord
ing to this estimation , if we assume
that during the last sixty years onlj
4,000,000 of German immigrant !
came to the United States , German ;
has lost during that time , from 182C
to 1880 , $2,400,000,000 , a greatei
sum than the war indemnity which
Franco was forced to pay to Germany ,
and which America has gained.
Mahone-6 Motives.
Speaking of Senator MahoneNoxd'
hoff , of The New York Herald , re
marks :
As to the cry that he isarepudiatoi
of debts , that is simply the war on
with which the Virginia Bonrboni
strove to bring Mahone and hia move
ment into disrepute. "Readjust
ment" was the occasion , not the pur
pose , of the anti-democratic move <
ment in Yirginia , just as "Greenback-
ism" waa the occasion for eimilai
anti-democratic movements in
ether southern states , and the
Bourbon democratic outcry thai
they were the only honest and God
fearing people , and Mahone and hit
people are no better than a lot ol
pirates , was a mere pretext Your
correspondent asked a Miisissippl
greenbacker the ether day : "Well ,
what la a greenbacker in your otato 1'
and the reply came , shsrp and deci
sive : "A greenbacker in Mississippi It
a man who trill be hanged before he
will cast another vote for the pre
scriptive and intolerant bourbon de
mocracy. " That is the whole thing in
a nutshell.
Rev. R. E. Bejper ; of St. Louis ,
