It was simply a question of honesty versus raicility , and honetty won the day. CIKCINKATTZ republicans have de foiled Jacobs.

GOVERNOR NANCE has itaucd his proclamation salting mldo the third Wednesday in April EB "Arbor Day , " to ba especially devoted to planting forest fruit and ornamental trees throughout the state. HAXCALL succeeded in using the re publican convention as a cats paw to defeat Chase and several more respec table .men than Hascall wore in the same boat. They h&vo discovered by this time that they were piloting a wrecking train. ' ' . IT Is a Rife thing -according to the .Republican to bet on a ican THE BEE is opposed to. Every time Rosewater -fights a man ho is sure to be oleoted. . 'Baldwin don't exactly agree with this opinion and Hascall is almost willing to join him. i Ir is very cheeky for the Omaha Herald to crow over the election of Mr. Boyd as a democratic victory and it is impudent for that paper to claim .credit for the achievement. How much did the editor of the Herald exert himself personally for the suc cessful men on the democratic ticket. Was there a tingle employee of that firm stationed at the polls to help elect it THE overflow of the Missouri river has done incalculable damage in south * era 'lUkota. 2ie ly every town along the banks of the stream has suffered from the rise of tha BigMud3y while farm houses , barns and stock of all descriptions and an Immense amount of railroad property has gone out with the ice. Tne town of Yermillion above "Sank ton is nearly destroyed and thirty lives are lost All the lower part of Yankton ii under water and the villages in northern Nebraska are repartad as serious sufferers from the flood. . THE Omaha Herald knows well enough the existence of the unholy alliance between Boyd and the Roiewator-Chaae element. There fore it supports Boyd with the faint praise that damns. It isn't talking city politics these days. National politics seem to encrois its attention. It publishes long editor ial articles in regard to the good for tune of the democrats in not having a majority in congress , and grows pos itively wild over "Mr. Tilden'a hat in Omaha , " tut it isn't at all anxious In regard to the mavorality. It knows that it and the best elements of its party in Omaha have been said out. [ Omaha Republican , Tuesday morning.

When the republicans placed Isaac 3. Hascall in nomination as their can didate for Mayorthis paper denounced the nomination as a criminal blunder. Tfie outcome of the elect ! in has veri fied our prediction that Hascali's nom ination would wreck the entire re- pnbllcan ticket. No other result could have been expected from the nomination of a man who had become notorious BS an audacious political trickster and manipulator of all sort of iobbery. The terri ble rebuke administered to the party in his overwhelming defeat will we hope serve as a lasting lesson to political leaders in this city and county. This is not the first time that the republicans of this city have out raged all decency and courted defeat by disreputable nominations. Only two years ago the came hoodlum ele ment forced the nomination of O. A. Baldwin .for district ju3ge , and al though no war was waged upon him In the papers , this county which is 800 republican gave the democratic candi date 1,200 majority. The nomination of Hascall was achieved by a set of watd bummers and vagabonds who carried the primaries in the usual way and became the representatives of the republican parly. When dead beats , who have been indicted for forgery like D. A. Griffin , become representa tives of a 'party and factors in the nominations of its candidates , no honest republican feels bound to sup port the nominees. The result of the city election is not only merited chastisement to the republican party , but it is a gratifying demonstration that citizens can rise above all partisan considera tions and join hands with political-op ponents for the welfare of the com munity. The election of James E. Boyd and the ignominous defeat oi Hascall is not a democratic victory in any sense. It is a victory of respect able , la r abiding citizens over hood- Inmism , jobbery and trickery. It demonstrates above all things that the masses of Omaha are in favor of hon est government administered by city officials whose reputation is above re proach. It-was inevitable that some very good men whose names were as- sbciatea with Hascall had to fall by the wayside as victims of the conspir acy which made Hascali's nomination possible. "Hundreds of republicans who never have boiled their party nominations voted the straight demo cratic ticket because they were dis gusted with the conduct of the con vention. . The most shameful Incident in this whole matter was the attempt of the Omaha" Republican to cram Has call down the throats of re publicans by representing him as a pink of honesty. Every disaster 'hi * has befallen the republican party in this city .and county within the lasl ten years may be traced to the malign Influence of the roustabouts and bum mers who train with that so called re publican sheet. It has J > een by the teachings and cooperation of this paper that republicanjjrimaries h vo time and rgiin become a mere farce and the conventions have been pack ed with the ecum of society. A stream never rises above its source and a convention made up of delegates gates [ elected by repeaters ant vagraats is almost sure to nomi nate men of the same stamp for public positions. When such scallawags learn by sad experience that the pack ing of conventions is disastrous at the elections their vocation will bo gone RAILROAD commissioner Fink de nies that the sums charged by railroat companies for transporting commodi ties affect the value of the product. Let us takecgrain for example. The prlco of all the grain sold in the country is fixed by the price at which we can dispose of the surplus which wo haya to sell. In other words it Is fixed by the price we can get for it laid down In Euror o. Whatever adds or lessens the cost of transpor tation from the field of the farmer to the warehouse of the purchaser in Liverpool , Havre or Bremen adds to or lessens the profit not only on the particular cargoes so delivered bat on the whole cropr , whether sold for domestic or foreign consumption So whatever proportion tion of the grain crop the railroads carry , their tariff rates for the service affect the value of the whole. They put money into the pockets of the pro ducer or take it out according to their own caprice. Such unbridled power should be checked by legislature restraint I. S. HASSAM. . MAYOR. The victory is almost ours. The ight has been a tough one , as we all cnew it would ba. But Hascall has ) erne it well. Ho has been every where , and has made friends wherever 10 has gone. He has infused an energy into the campaign. He las been worth everything to he republican organization In Omaha , le has fought the battle 'si- "ently , but without a retreat of an neb , and with a sure and swift ad vance. He has put pluck Into his npportors. He has made a recorder or himself of which he and the party .hat nominated him have all reason o be proud. [ Omaha Republican Dnesday morning. By the light cf the returns we maglne the party that nominated him lasn't much to ba proud of. JOHN T. RICH , republicanhas been elected from Mr. Conger's district in Michigan to Congrew. Although Form is rich , his opponents cliim he ill bo a poor substitute for Senator Conger. Kussla and Germany , xradon Stan iard. It is a matter of common notoriety hat the now emperor , even down to a quite recent time , has been in hearty jmpathy with the Panslavonlc move ment and in close relation with its rcopagandists. The intensity of his Russian feelings has carried him far n this direction , and , though it is Iwava hazardous to take the acts or angutge of princes before iheir eleva- ioa to sovereignty as the basis of con- ectures respecting their future policy t Is hardly rash to conclude that under th % feign now begun the antagonism between Ruesia and Germany will be come more and more intanae. Alex ander H was filled with admiring re spect and warm affection for his uncle , Emperor William , and was all his life long diosed to lean upon German advisers and to sympathize with Ger man sentiment. But Alexander ILL must have wholly changed bi& charac ter If he does not still typify and , if possible , exaggerate the anti German feeling of the Russian police. The bitterness with which the Russian ar istocracy and the Russian peasantry regard the interloping German ele ment exceeds the animosity of the Irishmen toward Euglshmen settled ' amontf them. To begin with the differences - ferences or nature are great The Russian upper dieses are envious of the advancement of the Germans in the bureaucracy , and the peas ants cordially detest the rigid i ; ty of German landed proprlo , tors , balifia , and foremen. In the professions and rradei German com petition is everywhere formidable and detested. This smoldering national feud has burst forth into fUme since the rise of the German empire to be the predominant power in central Europe. The Russians cannot forget that Prince Bismarck aad his imperial master now occupy tha position which the government of the Czar Nicholas occupied upon the continent between 1830 and 1850. It is highly probable that only for the personal influence ol Alexander IL , the two empires , long since engaged in diplomatic contests , would have been arrayed in open hostility against one another. PERSONALITIES. Senator "Gentleman George" Pen- dleton , of Ohio , is portly and hand some in figure and easy and graceful in speaking. Secretary Hunt will soon make his first sea voytge. He will run from the Potomac to Newport in a man-of- war. Precautions against sea-sickness are now making. Peter Cooper sajs that if he had his days to live over again he would go fishing at least three days of every week. Ah ! these , old chaps realize it only when too late. Mrs. GarSeld , who spsaks the French and German fluently , is said to be the first president's wife able to talk with foreign diplomatists In the court lan guage of Europe. Gambotta's motto is , "I can wait" That Is the American motto , too ; with the addition , "Batyou had bet ter hurrv if yon don't want to get hurt" [ Elmlra Free Press. Dr. Tanner admits that he failed as a lecturer , but he wants to bet that he will be remembered twenty years longer than the late President Hayei. He has all the odds in his favor. The Tincennes Commercial gives this evidence of personal journalism : While Purcell "is a man of great hu man beauty and exceeding polite exhi bition , his reasoning ( in that trticltt ] shows , d n him , ho ain't got no sense. " The Empress of Austria , who has the temper of a Tartar , once horse whipped a gontlcman on the steps ol the inperial palace. He rushed to the Emperor and demanded redress. Hia majesty shrugged his shonlden andbnstoxcd npon him the order o : the xron Crown , whereat Yienna laughed all the more. WOMAN'S EIGHTS. BYEUPHKOS1NE SCHOXLEK. Since I have been reading The Journal , I noticed a great deal being said about "Woman's Rights. " Permit - mit me to make a few remarks on thai subject. Having myself had the gooc fortune to live half of my lifetime in a foreign country , speaking other languages , ( German and English were tmugUt me ) , I hul an opportunity to compare the women of the differeu ! nations , their rights and habits. Therefore , if yoi want to find a woman , especially girl , as modest as a violet , ( * a the poet saye ) , you must go to Europe. There women retains yet her natural , modest ways , while common sense and a study of her csnstitution tell that women were never made to reign. If the Lord over designed women to perform the came duties as men , why then did he create two sexes ? If the woman of to-day is willing to bo equal to man , it is suggested , that she must bear the hardships of life with him ; for there can be no privileges mthou duties. 1 heard a gentleman remark not loarr ago , on biing atked : Who would take care cf the babies , when the women were studying politics , or attending public lectures ! answered "Why cin'c tbo men help take care of. babies ? " He did not say who would take care of them , if man and wife both be out in public. It'is a fact , the American woman is known to bo brave and courageous , though it it also known , that iho has : tendency to go into extremes onslighl occasion. The American woman prides herself with the thought , thai she is socially ahead of tha women ol all nations , but she does not seem to comprehend , that the foundation of the position which she now occupies , is resting on ( inicksand. To illus trate our present condition , I recall to mind a few words which the emperor of Brazil La said to hare uttered , when at the cen tennial exhibition at Philadelphia , where he was crowded by our Ameri can women who tried to shake hands with him. He said then : "Of all the women I know the American women are the most forward. " A modest wife would banish the thought , to keep up with her husband attending $ political lecture , when a child is sick , and needs all the care of an affectionate mother ; or going to an election , when natural circumstances of married life ild her to be discreet It is stated that the American born nhabitant of the New England states are steadily decreasing. Centuries age , there were highly civilized na tions , such as the old Greeks and Ro mans , who were ruined by the un- imlted rights the women there pos sessed ; and the last French revolution showed us how women c&n make en raged furies of themselves by taking an active part in war , and helping to destroy their own citizens and their property. It ia said that women at the polls would have a good In- Juence over the men. I should not wonder but what It might only be i repetition of what is going on in Washington , far there are good and bad women every place. It is also rgued , because European women did not aspire to bo equal with men , was because they were not enlighten ed enough to take a part in political affairs ; they were kept almost as slave * . The fact is , under Iho school laws as they are in Europe , a girl of thirteen or fourteen years of age , has a better education ( that is what belongs to school ) than an American girl of eighteen can attain. As the mind of the European giri is not absorbed with political affairs , she will make a gentle wife to a lov ing onsband , she considers it her duty ; o lay the first foundation of moral character and divine principle in her son * and daughters. Tender feelings as only a mother knows how to im- ) lant in the tender hearts of her ihildren , are the gifts nature only ave tha woman. Men generally show > y their mora robust Inclinations , hat they were not preated tor the nursery or the house. I , for my iart , woold not want to live wjth a msband , who was not superior to me , not only in physical strength , but also " ntellectual. Women's weak constitu needs very often the tupport of a strong frame as well as that -of the mind. Jf women will do theirpartin shaping the minds of the comirg gen eration hey will have accomplished more than they could with the-ballot in their hands , and men have accom plished yet. Tne Right of Asylum. Dinrer Btputllcan. A question In which our own country is indirectly interested is likely to soon be the subject of Euro pean discussion indeed , has been dis cussed for some time pasY 'in . an in formal manner. Switzerland is the place of refuge for all those political offenders who do not care to cross the ocean. International law protects them there from all enemiec , however powerful.r When this law was m- tablished , or recognized rrather , by the various monarchial governments of Europe , it was intended to include only those who had incurred the anger of these governments 'by resistance to their authority. Conspiracies with intent to murder were then so rare comparatively that no exceptoioa was made against thorn : asd the consequence is that now murderous conspirators , when forced to leave the immediate scene of their operations , sesk an asylum in'the little Alpine re public and ' laugh at pursuit. So Switzerland has become the temporary home of that class of reformers who think monarchs have no rights which anybody is bound to respect not even the right to lire. The main nest of nihilism is there ; nihilists public documents are printed and circulated there , and undoubtedly most of the plotting is done there or at least its general features marked out. Just aa long , then , as Switzarland furnishes shelter and protection to these crim inals , just so long ij.ust crowned heads see their deadly foes within arm's length , as it were , and yet have no power to arrest them. In all prob ability some of the men and women implicated in the assassination of the czar are residing in Geneva or its vic inity. Alexander III. knows it , and his agents could put their hands on them to-morrow if allowed to do so ; but they are practically as much be yond his reach aa if in the wilds of Central Africa. This is intensely aggravating , worse than that , for Alexander also knows that these men and women will do to him what they did to his father. Bat Ho can neither p'unlsh the slayers of his father nor check their designs against himself. Other royal personages are living under the same threats , not quite so pronounced , perhaps , and , therefore , have the same interest in abolishing this disagreeable Swiss pe culiarity. * How can the abolition be effected ! Only , we think , by a European con gress , in which Switzerland may be called npon to appear and show cause why political assassins , and their ald ers and abettors , should not be liable to arrest on her soil. She would find it very difficult , if not Impossible , to show such cause as would satisfy the representatives of imperilled royalty ; and would either have to abandon the right cf asylum voluntary , or under stern pressure. For It his been sug gested that , in event of refusal , the little republic should ba wiped out of existence absorbed by her stronger neighbors. But the trouble is that , in this respect , England Is only a larger Switzerland , and the United States a still larger one. There are no laws in either country for the extradition tf political crimi nal * , no matter how far they push their criminality ; nor would public sentiment In these countries permit the pisssga of such laws. To bully Svrl'zerland into submission , and say nothing to England and the United States , would ba ridiculous ; and in those telegraphic days a conspiracy whose objective point Is St. Peters burg or Madrid , can be hatched as suc cessfully in London or New York as In Geneva. Altogether the problem is decidedly complicated and its solu tion extremely doubtful , but that those whose lives are at stake will at tempt to solve it within the year is almost certain. THE TELEPHONE. ITS USE , MISUSE AND TIH7E PLACE IN OUR SVSTEM OF COMMUNICATION. St. Jo Herald. This invention , so recently only a curiosity and an amazing toy , has already becoma an "institution. " No city of any importance in this country is unprovided with a tyitem of telephones , and their nso by certain tain classes of business men baa al ready become a necessity. Hereafter they will often be pi iced in busi ness bouses when the building is erected , just as water and gas are , and as steam for heating and cook ing ia very likely to be. There ara some very obvious tele phone annoyances. The first ia the poles in the street , on business side walks , and in front of the grounds tf fine residences , and the wires on everybody's roof , with wire-repairers climblrg on your house who have no moro right to bs there than your drawing room. The only remedy for this nlsanca will be found in the use of aubter raneau lines. Ere long the public will insist npon this reform. The poles are now not only an nnsighly and ghastly spectatlo along the streets , and the wires an illegal impertinence on the tops of houses , but the masts are often a eetious obstruction to bas inets men and to the ordinary pedes trian. They have been erected usually with no regard to the rights and con venience of the public and sometimes in cool defiance of the tights of pro perty holders. This is a way modern jorpjrations have ; they go on the theory that eels get ugod to being skin ned. ned.The The other annoyance relates to the receiving of messages. The patience of the receiver is often sorely tried by 'rivolons and Idle messages , and the general and Importunate attention re quired of the telephone-holder is very " trying to the nerves aa well as ex- lanstive of time required for other duties. The ideal telephone subscrib er Is the man who "hires a hall" for [ t. t if not fit tor general society , [ t is an sfUlction if } a private house , ringing night and day , that fey cane persons will endure. In the ordinary business office it Is barely less annoy- infi. The accountant is half through with a column of figures when the jell rings ; the dentist is pulling a ; oolh and the bell rings ; the clergyman is sending up a fervent prayer when this terrible din de stroys all thought of davotlon. The poet may have an inspiration , ihe nerchant a bargain , the sick man a aate of sleep ; the remorseless bell spoils them all and throws each dis appointed listener into an hour of agony and worry. It is very wondprfdl that you can hear a man talk who is a hundred miles away , bat It is infinitely discour aging to have him talk at all scrts of lonrsand times when you are not prepared - ' pared for him. And ho often wants rou to take a pencil and write down listalk. There ia only one remedy ; ; he telephone must have a r.iom by t elf and an attendant. Persons who cannot Hhlro 9 hill , " will often cease to be subscribers. The telephone * has not yet foan ft ; ; rue place in our complicated system of communication. It will bo "less jeneral than was at first predicted , but 'or ' man ? purposes it will be very use- 'ul and already seems almost Indispen : sable. But it is evident that It Kill not supersede the telegraph ; that the written meisago , silently delivered , is more accurate and valuable ; it pre serves a record ; It gives you a remedy if there is an error in transmission , 'and ' you can answer It at your owi pleaiure. Nothing hss been hearc lately of reporting parliamentary de bates by telephone or of reading books from the phonograph machine , and those dreams and predictions do not eeem"to be capable of immediate realization.
