THE consolidated opposition which

Parliament seems to forebode en ad1

the resignation of the ministry or an
appeal to Ihocountry , through th
election of a now House of'Oom'

No land bill which bould have -been

THE invasion of Mexico by Amerl
can capitalists Is proceeding with al
dispatch. The Atchison , Topeka &
Santa Fo road proposes' to enter th
now Eldorado from two points. From
Doming , where that road connect
with the Southern Pacific , a branch
starts off for Gnaymas , which is locat
ed on the Gulf of California som
four hundred miles distent. . By thii
route the distance from' the east to th
Paclic Ocean will be shortened som
ix hundred miles. This will bring
Australia over two days nearer to New
York and England than by the'preeen' '
routes and will doubtless attract
large amount of travel. The otho
line starts from llincon , la New
Mexico , a point 1005 miles from
Atchison and runs southeasterly to E
Paso whore it unites with the Jlexl
can Central road which rcn due south

SENATOR SA.UNDEKS has lately sub
milled to the torture of an Interview.
The resnlt , as will' bo "Boetffrom tb.9
following extract from the New York
Tribune , was somewhat remarkable :
"Senator Sanndors is a Urge , fine-
appearing man , with white hair and
beard. He spoke of the mining In
terests of his state al some length ,
and asserted that their development
was In Its infancy. He said that new
mines were continually being dis
covered , and all that was needed to
make them profitable was proper work
log. " . _
Now we recognize the white hair
and venerable beard perfestly
bnt are all at sea about
thosa mines which must have
recently boon discovered In person by
Sonater Saunders and Professor
Aughoy. For years our people have
longed for and dreamed of rich strikes
of mineral within our state , but in
rain. Cruully delusive reports have
from time to time appeared on the
subject only to be denounced as frauds
by Investigators. This Js.the first
time that an authoritative and official
announcement that now mines are
constantly being discovered has reach
ed the public ear. On this account it is
proper that the report should first
appear In the Uew York 2Vi6uri and
In due course of time we shall
expect Bobbins to take up the strain
and finally Brooks , who always did
have a deep regard for Senator Soun
ders , will join in the chorus and echo
ths pralsoa of Nebraska's mining in
tereats. Now , we want it distinctly
understood , that wo are not In the
way of any appropriation for a national
school of- mines , located at Moses
Sydonham's future capital of the
United States , at Centorla. Ever
ince the late
flood
, i
have reached the conclusion that
we were grievously mistaken
nndervalning the importance of the
nautical observatory which Senator
Paddock sought to locate at Kearney ,
and we seriously regret the failure of
the iMe colleague of Senator Saunders
In getting that marina hospital found-
edatNebraskaClty. Snator Sannders
Is eminently carrect in his con
clusions when he states that our min
ing Interests are1' still in " their
infancy bnt who knows what immense
wealth may be hidden beneath the
fertile soil oTtWsistate _ betweenjhe
upper crusUnd China. Ve have no
desire to f rlRhten
away capital from
Investing in Nebraska and If the
venerable senator can Induce
any
eastern man to come to our state and
prospect In the gopher rilhges where
BO far as Te ; have heard the only
visible mining claims have"becn staked
out we shall rejoice exceedingly. *
WHERE SENATOR VAN WYCK
STANDS.
SENATOII VAN \TCK called on yes
terday at Union Pacific headquarters ,
and held a long and pleasant conver
sation with Mr. T. L.KimblaU 'aSljtbB

Air. Poppleton , Mr. Blobbing" , and ,
other prominent officials of'tteroad.
. " v
[ Republican.
Mr. Stebblns made a "call at the ed
itorial rooms cf THE BEE a few days
ago and Messrs. Vlning and Popple-
ton have made calls at these antimonopoly -
monopoly headquarters within the
past week , but THE BEE did not as
much as refer to it.
The call of Senator Tan Wyck al
tha-U.JB.-headquarters had-no more
significance thanJIr. Stebbins call at ,
our editorial rooms. Why then does
the Republican give such prominence'
to the fact tbat Senator Van Wyck
had n pleasant talk with Messrs. Kimball - '
ball and Stebblns at the U. P. head-
quailers ? Is not the evident design
and object of theJU. P. stool-pigeon ,
to create the impression that the Sen
ator has gone over to the' great mo
nopoly , bag and.baggage ? Taken in
connection with the fact that the U.
P. organ-grinders and the monopoly
strikers have deluged General Van
Wyck with soft-soap from the .day
ho was elected Senator this calj
might naturally be construed
into a confirmation cf the reports
which the emiseiarles of the credit
mobilier monopoly have thrown out
that they have bagged the game , and
left the anti-monopoly majority that
elected General Van Wyck a barren
victory. Such reports we have the
highest authority for stating are
absolutely false and-unf6undod. Gen.
Van Wyck stands to-day as fitmly at
tached to anti-monopoly prln-
ciples as he did on
the day of his election and
ho proposes In the future , as In the
past , to act in concert and remain
identified with that element of the
Republican party which honored him
with a float in the highest councils of
the nation. As a representative of
Nebraska ho will endeavor to serve all
Interests that cantributa-to the mate
rial prosperity and , development of
his state. As factors iu
the growth and prosperity of
Nebraska , the railways will receive
their share of his sorvics , but at the
name time he will by hia votes and
Acts enforce the right of the people to
protect themselves against existing
abuses cy chartered monopolies.
Whenever the Issue batween the rail
ways and'ihe producers of the west
comes before congress , Senator Van
Wyck's voice will ba Hoard with no
uncertain sound. There will be no
dodging , squirming or trimming.
The senator's record in the lower
house of congress when ho boldly ex
posed , denounced and opposoi the
credit mcblller subsidies , and his
course In the late legislature after ho
was elected senator , are a sufficient
guarranty that the blandishments and
taffy of the monopoly organ-grinders
are thrown away upon him.
Mu. CHAELES FKANCIS ADAMS , JE. ,
h'as taken np the cudgels for the mo
nopolies against F. B. Thurbcr , and
prints a long article in the New York
Nation , the only object cf which is
to convince people that he la the only
person who Is competent "for the
next ten years to represent the
United States officially m the discus
sion about railroads which ought to
take place. " Mr. Adams waxes very
sarcasticoverF.B. Thurbor's denuncia
tion of stock watering or capitalization
by railroads of their surplus earnings.
He cays Mr. Thurber'a objection la
"farcical" and explains his remark by
observing that he has "failed to de
tect any perceptible effect which railroad
road- capitalization has on railroad
l-and thinks that "
jrate8 , "capitaliza
tion may safely ba left to take csro of
"
Itself. " The Springfield KcpbuKcan
which can hardly bo accused of being
a strong antl-monopolj advoc3tcBavs :
Then there Is no ground for any
railroad legislation whatever , for cap
italization Is the basis of from-one-
third to one-half of the charges for
transportation , and Is of all points
the ono most easily regulated and con
trolled by legislation. If that may be
left b Itself , it Is hardly worth while
to bother ourselves about railroads
as a public problem at all. The
complete somersault of our loadIng -
Ing railroad economist on a point of
vital importance in onr railroad policy
will afford an additional reason for
that "distrust not to Bay contempt
felt for all specialists" which .Mr.
Adams has observed. That Mr.
Adams avows a desire "for the next
ten years to represent the United
States officially in the discussion
( about railroads ) which ought to take
placo" simply choirs that he does not
yet understand the extent to which
ho has destroyed the value of any dis
cussion in which he might lead in its
influence upon public opinion.

Cleveland Leader.
Since the Star route swindlers have
dared to threaten to attack the char
acter of President Garfield he has ,
Bald onr dispatches ol yesterday , given
orders to tbte officials conducting the
invest Ration to "go to the bottom of
it. " They now find that they have
.attacked * the wrong man. .When
"Brady's bluster about dragging ihe
President into the meshes of the
scandal was first published it made
no impression whatever upon the
country. Public opinion had al
ready , measured his proportions and
enderetood the shallow sound of his
threat . It was well known too that
a number of leading southern demo
crats were familiar , having been active
participants , with all the features of
this scandal , and If President Garfield
were in any way involved they would
have used it against him during the
campaign last fall. But these demo
crats knew that the President's repu
tation was without stain. The at
tempt to make him a party to the
transaction will recoil upon those who
made it , and ho is now more deter
mined than ever to "go to the bottom
of it. "
The ' -Tub La-w" and the Railroads.
Lincoln Globe.
The Lincoln Journal , being the
mouthpiece of the railroads at the
capital of Nebraska , relieves itself of
the following which was evidently
written by a railroad man and pub
lished as editorial :
"The first noticeable effect of the
DoanB-Tab law has presented itself.
Heretofore most of the Black Hills
wholesale trade has dealt with Omaha.
The hay and grain for that section has
been entirely purchased in Nebraska.
The U. P. railroad hss secured this
condition of trade by reasonable in
ducements in the way of freights to
Sidney , the entrepot to the Hills.
Under the present law no reduction
can be made to Invite a continuation
of this business , and Nebraska at one
blow loses the trade of a section of
country amounting to millions each
year , and Iowa Will reap the benefit.
. This is but the beginning. No fur
ther trade with Colorado , Wyoming
or Dakota by Nebraska merchants ; no
more exports west and north of Ne
braska grain , hay or meats this Is
what has been accomplished by the
self-styled friends of the people. "
It was well understood at the time
this law was passed that the rallrovds
favored the bill for the reason that
they expected to be able to use It in
such a manner as to make the people
disgusted with railroad legislation.
The article says : "The U. P. railroad
has secured this oondition of trade by
reasonable inducements in ihe way of
freight to Sidney. " It Is fair pre
sume that tha freight rates
to other points has been unreason
able. This law does not compel the
railroads to charge high rates , it slm-
ply-says that they shall treat all alike ,
and if that road can carry freight to
Sidney for a less rate than designated
by their published card they on do
the same for other places along the
line. The Union Pacific railroad do
not carry freight for fun to Sidney or
any other place , and if they made
money , which they certainly did ,
when they carried freight to Sidney
nnder the reasonable inducement ar
rangement ; hey could make money by
carrying freight to Columbus
at the same price , not at
the * same rate , bnt for the same
amount. The truth of It is , the law
compels this road to carry freight to
Columbus for the same that they carry
It to Sidney. This they do not want
to do , although the haul to Columbos
Is leas than ono hundred miles and to
Sidney four hundred miles. This road
will hnd it difficult to mak * the farm-
era of Nebraska believe that It is un
just to make railroads carry a car of
their grain to the Missouri river , a
distance of one or two hundred miles ,
as cheaply as they will carry a car of
merchandise twice as far for the people
ple of Dakota , simply because there
happens to be a competing line of
road running into that territory.
The Iowa Senatorehip.
Ccrro GorJo Republican.
The official career of Governor Gear
has compelled the admiration of the
entire republican press of Iowa. He
has become noted for a strict attention
to the duties of the gubernatorial of
fice and has brought to their perform
ance a degree of practical ability , tire
less energy and wise discretion such
as has rarely been witnessed
even in Iowa , where able , ener
getic and discreet men are by no means
uncommon. Cn every hand it ia ad
mitted that ho has made one of the
best governors the state ever had.
Coming into the office a strong man ,
though not perhaps a popular one
throughout the state , ho has not only
become greatly endeared to the people
but ho has grown , with exceptional
rapidity , in knowlcdgeof public affairs
and in capacity for successful leader
ship. He his shown that ho is fami
liar with all the great public quea-
tiona of the day and is broad enough
to treatthom , from a atatcsman'sstand-
point. In the difficult and delicate
matter of appointments , of which he
has had a more to make than usually
falls to the lot of a governor , beseems
to have been guided by a kind of
sixth sense which rendered It impos
sible for him to do wrong. This
was especially noticeable in the ap
pointment of Mr. McDlll to succeed
Mr. Klrkwood. Gov. Gear is himself
an aspirant for the Klrkwood succes
sion , and the temptation to appoint a
weak man would naturally pr sant
itself. Indeed , a leading republican
piper , The Register , said , before the
appointment was made : " "It will test
the quality of Gov. Gar's ability. It
either makes or breaks Mm , as ho
shall have the sagacity , or the lack
of it , to determine. " The governor's
ability and sagacity stood the test ,
and stood it well , for the unanimity
with which the entire press and party
have endorsed the selection of Mr. '
McDill is almost phenomenal. The
recognition of the fact Is general that
the governor's own ambition to be
come senator was not a sufficient
temptation to induce him to snciifice
the duty ho owed to the state of ap
pointing a strong man to represent it
In the senate.
Governor Gear , as we have said , is
possessed" of a laudable ambition to ;
> nter the senate at the expiration of
he term for ivhlch Mr. Klrkwood was f
sleeted. The more hia character ,
ibillty and career are studied , the
nore wo think he has the right to ask
h t his ambition be gratified. Sena-
or Kirkwcod's unexpired term should ,
re believe , bo served out to Senator
klcDilland the next legislature ehou'd '
4ect him for the "short term" but
rithont desiring to detract from the
.bility and deserts of others who are
spirants , ws think that the long term
hould bo given to Governor Gear ; and
F , as we hope , he shsll bo chosen to
eDresent Iowa in the senate , we are
atlsfied that ho will be found , as he
las always been found heretofore ,
ally equal to every occasion which
hall present itself.
c
gdcn Ucportcr. ll
While to us it seems too e rly fo S
gitato the matter of the Kirk woe 1 1
succession , yet as many of our con-
temporiea are at work In this direc
tion , and inasmuch as both our coun
ty republican contemperariea have un
furled theic banners and declared for
Mr. Wilson , and as the matter of j
representative for Boone county is
being canvassed , and as the election
6t a representative will play an im
portant part"vin the senatorial succes
sion matter , we may bo excused from
expressing our preferences at this
time. Wo are not personally ac
quainted with either of the prominent
candidates , and can only judge of their ,
ability and fitneas by 'their past re
cord. That both Mr. Wilson and
Governor Gear are strong , brainy men
there is not a doubt. We only view
them from their record. There are
matters that affect Boona county , her
merchants , her farcers , her
mechanic ! . Matters upon which
a United States senator must exercise
his duties as a senator ,
and his duties will become
apparent to him and he will
be governed in the exerche of these
duties by past predilections , past in
fluences and past rovrarda. Viewing
the matter thus we are now impressed
with the belief that Governor Gear
will mora nearly , faithfully represent
the people of the great state of Iowa
than any senatorial competitor- thus
far mentioned. In an early Isauo
we shall lay before our readers
the reasons for the faith
that is In us , and only now care to
place The Reporter among the sup
porters of Governor Gear. In the
meantime wo hope all who may bo
asked to cast a vote for a representa
tive for Boone county will think of
this matter , learn all they can of the
past political history of Mr. Wilson
and Mr. Gear , and the Intelligent
voter will faithfully decide.
Sioux City Journal.
The Muscalina Journal thinks the
following sentiment from The Council
Bluffs Nonpareil finds lodgment in
he minds of many thonghtiul men in
this state :
"We believe the true sentiment of
the party in this state to bo that Mr.
Gear makes a better governor than
Mr. Wilson would , and that Mr. Wil
son would , perhaps , make a better
aonator than Mr. Gear would. If
this conclusion be correct , then Mr.
Wilson is most likely to succeed ia his
struggle. "
Now , if Mr. Gear ia a better gover
nor than Mr. Wilson would be , why
would he not make a better senator ?
The distinction sought to be drawn to
the prejudice of Mr. Gear , The Jour
nal is sure , will not readily appear to
the thoughtful men of Iowa. The
same elements that have made Mr.
Gear , AS nearly all tha papers of the
state agree In saying , "The beat
governor Iowa has ever had , " will
go to make him about such a sena
tor as Iowa needs at the national
"capital. Ho is a good governor
because he has business capacity , be
cause ho has Industry , because ho is
prudent , because he makes a atndy of
the requirements of the state , because
he has a keen insight into men , be
cause he has executive ability. Mr.
Wilson has the advantage of him as an
orator. Perhaps this affords the baaia
of The Nonpareil's judgment. But
there are too many oratora in the sen
ate now. Iowa is more snxiona than
ever to bring business to the front in
the national legislature. The
Journal ia catisfied that there ia
not a man In Iowa that has the
familiarity with all the ma
terial resources of the state that Gov.
Gear has. People who read cannot bo
Ignorant of the fnct that since he has
been iu the executive office ho has
given much csro and thought to th
varied agricultural industries of th
state and so there is not a man iu
Iowa to-day EO well prepared to talk
and act upon the questions affecting
the material welfare of the people of
Iowa aa Gov. Gear. He knows every
county , what It is doing and what it ia
capable of doing ; ho knows what the
people have to hope for and what they
have most to fear. Ho has placed
himself close to thorn has studied to
make himself , as governor of the
commonwealth , their representative.
Them IB not an agricultural editor In
the state that has equal information
with him about Iowa's dairy inter
esls , its stock interests and dangers
from stock diseases , Its crop prodnc
tlons , manufactures , and all that.
All thla affords the key to
why he Ia called "tho best governor
Iowa ever had. " Ills en insult to the
intelligence of the state to insist that
such a man would make an inferior
senator. What do the people of Iowa
want a senator for ? Presumably to
represent them in the souato of the
the United States. Therefore the
man who knows moat of them , who Ia
beat acquainted with their businot
Interests , and who has capacity to
work in those interests , U the man ,
in tha Interest of the people , to bo
chosan. It ia time the business and
industrial intoreats of our states
were brought into closer relationship
with the representation of the atatea
at the national capital. The country
la drifting too much , in the direction
of making a distinctive business of
federal politics , in which the concerns
of the people are loftily put aside
something foreign. It Is a sort of a
divorcement that ought not to receive
further encouragement that certain
ly should receive no encouragement
in a stale like Iowa.

Exactions at New Orleans.
U Lui ) Republican.
It is stated that there Is a Louis-
ma law , passed In the Interest of the
ombinstion of levee laborers in New
) rleans , which prohibits the ctew of
vessel to discharge her cargo and
ompels her to have it unloaded by
svee laborers. A few days ago the I
Ipanish steamer Alba arrived from.
.iverpool , having fifty tons of'coal in
her forehold for use on her
return -voyago , and the captain ,
deejrlcg the forohold for cot-
tonj had the crew transfer this coal to
tho'bunkers. ' The cotton-rollora con
strued this as a vlchtlnn of the law
and of the rules of the labor combi
nations , and refused to load the ship.
The New Oxleana Damocrat remarks :
"New Orleans has secured the atten
tion of the world in her efforts to at
tract shipping to her shores , bnt It
will bo useless to struggle for commer
cial supremacy if wo are to burden
commerce with annoyance ! of thii
character. "
The efforts now being made by mer
chants and St. Louis river men to
divert western produce from the rail
routes eastward to the river route
southward depend for their success
upon demonstrating that the latter
roata is thecbeapast. The enterprise
cannot be successful without the
most complete and cordial cooperation
tion of Now Orleans , and if such
laws ana rules at thoas here referred
to uro allowed to obatrnst the load
ing and unloading of cargoes at th-U
city , the effect on iho water-route bus
iness will be rOjijSja > < ortunato. It
will bo a wagfcjTgttime to cheapen
freight rates at thl ? und of the line If
wanton and arbitrary tolls and ob-

alro the trade wo refer to they ought
to make some effort to secure it ; they
must , at least , abstain from measures
that will repel It.
