There is only one contingency under which the demociata can walk into power in Omaha , and that Is the most reckless folly on the part of the republican convention. WE have alreadynoted the nomina tion of Mr. W. H. Semen to the Re ceivership of the Beatrice Xand Office. Mr. Somors was one of the few prom inent men whoopenlyacd manfullyop- posed the bulldozing of the monopo lies in Gage county , and it is emi nently fitting that his fidelity to the element that elected General Van Wyck to the JJniled States Senate should be recognized. . Mr. Somers was nominated by Mr. Hayes to fill the vacancy caused by tha resignation of Mr. Harrington. 'Thojomlnatlon was referred to a sub-committee , of which Senator Paddock was Chair man , and died with the.session , because the Senator never re ported It back. General Garfield re- nominated him , and the nomination was verjipromptly confirmed. OSE tot the points being made Bpalnst&tanley Matthews k his re cord on the government construction act * . A long litigation Is likely to ensue between the government and. the Central Pacific railroad upon the claim of the treasury department that25 percent of the net earnings of that -"corporation should be p id Into * * the government. The question as to the constitutionality of the laws under which the government claims the annuity Is bound to come up. Tbt > r are only five judges on the - supreme < mrt who are physically compewaiu iur vuoir dniias. Throe of them * ( Viff L _ j . . . . . . . . . . .i J.TTU are of the oplaion that the law is unconstitutional " stitutional "and that the government has no right to demand payment of the mouoy. Stanley Matthews Is on record as holding the same opinion. The opponents of Matthews insist that the senate has no right to jeopardize the interests of the government in a case Involving millions of dollars , by puttiagf'a * sum upon the bench who is known to be against the government rn the construction actscf congress. The people of the United States are opposed to Stanley Matthews' con&rmntion , and the sen ate will not pat a slight upon Gpneral I si Gar/field by refusing to confirm a I tr nomination which was bequeathed to P' him byhds predecessor. P'm cabl THE republican/party / as represented blhe in the senate of the United States is he heP. making a record which it may someday P. P.sic day have cause to regret It is no use sic to miaee'jaatters. The struggle just an now going on between the democracy ed andre Jublicans in the senate is not ex a cofiflict1' between the advocates of rai opposing principles , Taut merely a dis- sh gracefaLscramble over spoils. The foi erganlzados ? of lhaseaate , so far as If committees are concerned1 ; has been g comploU. With th e ezcaption of u gth score of hungry spoils-banters who all want to gat on congressional pay-rolls by for doing nothing daring the summer If vacation , nobody in this country will ly suffer sorions loss or inconvenience by lywi continuing the present sergeant-al arms , clerl s , and door-keepers cntil the regular session in December.

The republican party must be consistent if it wants the con fidence and support of the American people. It may bury the "bloody shirt" issue but It can't afford to trade patronage with rebel brigadiers whose votes are in the market even 11 some patriots who are out at elbows have to wait six months longer for federal pap. WHEN the Union FaciEc railroac terminus was located at Omaha in December , 18G3 , the managers of the road demanded and procured as bonus for locating their machnle shops , headquarters and transfer in this city , certain rights of way through our streets , and a donation by the city and by private citizens of large tracts of lands on our river front In addition to these lands many of our liberal citizens were Induced to deed to the Union Pacific lots and lands adjacent to their main track between the river bottom and the plateau anc between Eight and Thirteenth street. In due coarse of time the U. P. manager ! complained that they hadn't room enough for the transfer business and more lota and lands were donated by the city and by individuals. Where parties refused to donate grounds the company received orders from the city council to condemn the property for public use and gobbled up the lands for a mere song. In 1870 Omaha voted $200,000 in city bonds for the purchase of depot grounds for the Union Pacific , and Douglas county bonded herself for $250,000 additional , as a bonus for the construction of the bridge and the perpetual Maintenance of the transfer business on the grounds donated to the company. When the Union Pacific came into possession of the depot grounds the managers securid an order from the City Council closing up Ninth street , which was then a principal thoroug- fare , and this street , which belongs to the public , was monopolized as a depot ground. Almost every year -since that time the great Anaconda has been winding it's cell around Omaha by appropriat ing more lands and more lots , closing up allays and obstructing streets until it hastbeoome a question whether Omaha hadn't better deed the whole city over to the Union Pacific and let that company parcel out the property to such oeople as are willing to be come their tenants. The faithless ness to contract obligations dis played by the Unlon Pacific managers towards Omaha Is notorious. All the advantages of terminal transfer have been taken from us , and the great de pot which they agreed to erect on the grounds donated to them was built with the proceedi of our bonds on the other side of the * river. The lands given them for transfer facilities on the river bottom have been leased to the Smelting Works company , and lots donated in South Omaha for similar 1"1 . , Jt ' D t"VBl > CU VUfc 1U1 elevators and other concerns over which Buuirruin. oojwcriolnD leasing or sale of grounds for factories and elevators providing these establishments were not hampered from patronizing any other railroad that enters Omaha. The attempt made last winter by the Union Pacific to monopolize our river front to the exclusion cf every other railroad shows the spirit-which ani mates that selfish corporation and the dagger of allowing any company to monopolize onr streets and alleys. Next Tuesday our city council will be called < m to act upon the proposition vacate ! certain alleys and parts of itreets in South Omaha for the'exclu- ilve connection between the main rack of the Union Pacific and the iroposed new elevator. , No such nonopoly ought to be granted , Omaha lannot afford to repeat her past danders. She does not want to be lemmed in on every direction fcy U. . tracks. It the right to lay down ide tracks between the elevator , and r ny of onr streets and alleys is grant- few , it should be on the w xpreea condition that every nl ailroad centreing in Omaha honld have the right to use said tracker BE or doing bueinesa with the elevator. th . , this is not done we might as well et along without the elevator.

Following the mountains for 125 miles through the county , is an arable stretch of fertile country that averages twenty-five to thirty miles in width , and above Umatilla it extends to the very shores of the Columbia. Not long ago it was a range for cattle. But to-day settlers are coming in to claim and cultivate every plain and every hillside. Washington. Colfax has organized a lodge of workmen. The prospect for an enormous yield of grain of all kinds was never better. The 0. R. & N. Co. awarded a con tract for the grading of sixty miles of road bed , between Texas Ferry and Colfax.

The Day mine at Pioche has made a strike and 4000 tons of ere are al ready in sight. The spring fever is striking the miners in the various camps , many of whom are migrating to Wood river and elsewhere. An important strike has been made in the old Rattlesnake district , near Tybo and thousands of tons of ore are exhibited to the visitor. There are now only eight hoisting works on she Oomstock lode which are not shut down , and some of them are only nominally open.

' It begins to look aa If the Union aclfic railway intends this year to ake us feel that its arrival within the nits of the territory is not an un- M ixed . blessing. Their manipulation the Pacific Mall oteamship line via mama is well known , and it seems J. ] . they-are now to - going try their tie the line Th. . game on of steamboats Uach the MUsourl river. Cai For some time our merchants have En ; made expecting the arrival of an agent the railroad to give freight con- ITe ] iota for the" coming season ; It was ported that the general western SI ant , Mr. McConnell , was on his way and Indeed ho seems to have come * far aa Dillon. There he met Mr. , } B * * T. 0. Power , who had left Helena in high dudgeon because the Ingisla- tnre failed to pass a bill to make him a present of a Bteamboat. What pissed between them is , of course , unknown ; but Mr. McDonnell turned back and accompanied Mr. Power to Omaha ; and no freight rates are yet. offered. One of our merchants tele graphed" the Union Pacific authorities at ( Jmaha , enquiring whethee special rates would ba given to Bozaman merchants , but received a vague , un satisfactory answer. The Inference of our business men if , that the railroad will refuse to grant Montana shippars special rates this year , having made Borne pooling arrangements with the river-men. If this opinion should prove cor rect , it means , probably that Monta na shippers will be charged regular local rates on all freight. The local rate is , on an average , about two cents per pound higher than the rate given the Bozeman merchants last year , and a much more favorable rate was grant ed to other points , notably Helena. The shipment last year via the rail road were , to the territory , 28,162,215 pounds ; to Bozeman , 3,108,470 pounds. A difference of two cants per pound on this amount would coat the territory nearly six hundred thou sand dollars , and Bozeman more than forty-two thousand dollars. We can hardly believe yet that the railroad men intend to apply the rcrew In this way. Not that we doubt their willingness to do so , if they conld do it successfully ; but they must know that they haven't got us completely in their power , thanks to onr old stand-by , the Missouri. Even if Messs. Power , Biker & Co. are willing to enter into a "pool , " the river remains open to others , and it is not so late in the season but that Murphy , Neal & Co. , Klein- schmldt & Bro. , Latnme & Co. , and other heavy shippers , could charter boats themselves and bring the bulk of their shipments up the river. A round trip between Bis marck and Benton may now be made in about three weeks , and plenty of boats might undoubtedly be had at St. Louis at once. Some delay and inconvenience might bo experienced ; but we believe the result will ba that , the railroad and steamboat companies would lose at least one-half of the quantity of freight brought to Mon tana , and they would thoroughly an tagonize the people. If any such project is really afoot , it will turn the attention of all still more to the progress of the Northern Pacific. Every milo built this summer will bring the time nearer , when no ono set of railroad magnates can dic tate terms to us ; and for the control of the Montana business , the direct line of the Northern Pacific will have such advantage over the roundabout Union Pacific and Utah Northern that there is but slight fear of any consoli dation of the two. This is from Louise Hilgen , Cedar- burg , Wis. , is noted in a Milwaukee exchange : About two years ago I began suffering with a pain in the knees , and in a short time was lamed entirely. I used St. Jacobs Oil and found relief after the trial of the first bottle , and am now perfectly well again. HOW TO GET RICH.
