How ever loudly tho.corporation managers may profess that in raie'mg their tariff ratco thoy.aro only -complying with the provisions of Vho p.nti'discrimiim- lion law passed Y > y lha last legislature , the people of Nebraska know enough to Itnow that nt h a construction of the Doano luw is fulso to its spirit and unwarranted by its letter. The law wxproflsly provided that no rates should bo higher than these in force previous to its pawago ivtut that no groatcc sum nliould bo charged for carrying n given amount of freight a shorter ilin nco tltun was charged for carrying the name nnd class -of freight a longer disUittco. It did not provide , aud the coqioratiw * mana gers * ro fully nwarc of that fact , thn < , a dierlinction miglit not bo made 1 twoon cfl.r-loatts , lotannd mnllor qtmn- tltios , and it left to the railroads the previlcgo of mating any reduction tlioy might sea lit from the tariff rates IIR force nt the opening of the year. ' 1/o do not imat'ino that cither nur farmers , or our wholesale mcr- chants , who have road the Doano law as finally passed will bo imposed upon by the silly bosh which is being re tailed by such railroad organs as the Omaha J/crwW , Jtcpvllkan and the Lincoln Journal and Globe. In their endeavors to make tho'aw odious the corporations are likely to malio them selves still more odious than the law and to force such sweeping legislation aa will forever take from their hands the power of interpreting to the dis advantage of our people % law whose provisions are manifestly fair , reason able and oquitablo. TIIR impression prevail' ! among some of our exchanges < hat the price of corn will prevent as extensive feeding of stock as would otherwise have been the casa under a more abundant harvest.Vo see no reason to doubt that moro stock will bo fed this winter in Nebraska than over be fore. While corn , taken altogether , will certainly not average more than three-quart era of n crop , still the in creased acreage will bring the yield up to a higher point than over before , and leave a , largo surplus for sale , The feet must also be taken into con- iideralion that much of the late corn will bo unfit for shipment but equally as well adapted for feeding as the larger and moro fully developed oars. The high price of corn -prevailing in the 6 st is certain to make cattle and hogs high for the next * year. The profits on corn fed cattle will there fore bo greatly increased , and it is a scHous question for our farmers to consider whether the concentration of their crop ? at homo on cattle and hogs will not in the end pay heavier profits than their shipment from the fltuto in bulk even at the present High prices. It has well been said that a farm is not only n farm , but n factory for changing .tho raw products into articles of general con sumption which possess a higher rel ative commercial value. Taking this view of the case it would appear that the coining winter season is a most advantageous time to follow np the start already made by our farmers to wards supplying the eastern markets with the highest gradn of corn-fed cattle and fattened hoes , TIIK cheekiest corporation in exist ence is probably the Manhattan ele vated railroad company of Now York whoso capital stock of $13,000,000 was issued with two leases as it * solo bas's of value. Before declaring any dividends on their own stock they wore bound by their charter to pay ( on per cent dividends on the stock of the two elevated roads and a few months ago finding it iinpotmiblo to reimburse their stockholdera wont in to the hands of a receiver. Their lat est notion is thus commented upon by the Chicago Tribune' The receivers of the Manhattan railway company in Now York calmly inform the court and the public that it will bo impossible for the elevated roads to pay expenses nt the present rates of faro. They therefore advise an increase of rates to the full legal limit , the basis of the schedule bo- iiiu a 10-cent faro to Harlem , The impudence of the roccom- mondation is concealed under the coyer the word "expenses. " A largo portion of the "expensea" of the roads are not legitimate and ought not to bo met. They consist of interest charges on an ( mormon * capital stock , moro than half of which represents water and frauds in construction accounts , Thu elevated roads have taken poscss * ion ot the streets , damaged private properly largely , nnd acquired valu- nblu franchises for nothing , They have budn plundered by con- atruction companies which were com- posodof some of the leading oflicersand directors , who made fraudulent con tracts with themselves to build roads on exorbitant terms. Finally they have united in 11 consolidation and issued 813,000,000 "watered stock" to themselves. Now they have the of- frontury to demand that the people of Now York shall bo taxed to nay inter est on nil these frauds. There has seldom boon n moru bra7.cn demand in the history of swindling railroad opor- ationa in this country. TJIK fools are not all dead yot. Special elections have been called in several precincts in Richardson coun ty for the purpose of aiicortaining whether the voter ? of those precincts I size for gl.OO. For Sale by . | d(5 ( ( IHJJ A MdMAiioy , Omaha. are willinp to put mortgages on their homes and the homes of their neigh bors in order that they may donate about $15,000 to the construction riM of the Missouri Pacific railroad foval lowiug that road to run juatwl'.ore it is bound to run Everybody in this Mate knows that the Misaouvi Pacific has ample menus for hu'lding ' the proposed extension from Falls City to Omaha and niu trifling subsidy Uko $20,000 or even 830,000 could clnuigo Ha purpose In build the proposed extension by the moat feasible route. And yet there nrc some people eilly enough to bo 'lievo that they nro bound to vote mortgages upon their homes or the road will not bo built. It is simply useless to warn these people against such criminal folly , but wo venture to pro JictUint the Missoun Pacific will bo built trough Richardson county nnd to Fftlls City , whether the bond proposition carries or is defeated. THE -terrible forest fires which have been raging in Michigan during the past week nro unparalleled in the his tory of the country. Latest accounts trom the scenes of the disaster indi cate that over ono thousand persons have perished in the flames and that numbers of families nro homeless. The flames seem to have swept over the entire portion of the southern peninsula bearing nil things before them in their course , sweeping out of existence five villages nnd laying waste nnd desolate hundreds of thou sands of acres of the finest timber Lands in the atato. Every additional report brings moro deUils of the fearful loss of lifo nnd property , nnd makes moro apparent the need for generous contributions to provide food and clothing for the settlers who were able to oacnpo from their burn ing homes with their lives. Detroit has already raised 8-10,000 for the ns- ststanco of the aulforors , and wo have no doubt that such nubscriptions will become general as soon ns their ur gent necessity becomes moro fully known and npprccialcd. UNI : of the results of the high spec ulation , which has been raging for tire months past on the Chicago board of trade , is the overheating of 310,000 bushels of No. 2 wheat which has been lying in store in the St. Paul elevators in that city. The announce ment that such n largo amount of wheat was "warm" nearly created a panic , nnd prices declined rapidly through fear that the U,000-,000 bueh- els now lying idle in the elevators had uliarcd the same fnte. Under the ordinary operation' the laws of trade this immonac quantity of ono of our greatest staples would long since have passed from the elevators on its way to eastern markotH or noitjhbor- hood flouring mills. The fact that a clique of speculators is nblo to lock up in store for purposes of public gam bling 3,000,000 bushels of wheat and withhold it from export until one- tenth and perhaps moro ia seriously damaged , ia an evidence of the fever heat of speculation which is raging not only in Chicago , but throughout the whole country , and which proinl Bts , if maintained , to precipitate a general panic upon the country. Northern Nebraska papers are dis cussing the question of Omaha's rela tion to the section of country now tributary to Sioux City. They are unanimous in thu opinion that , nil other things being equal , that oection of country would prefer to deal with the commercial center of their own state rr.thor than with a city in on- other stato. To compote with Sioux City , however , Omaha merchants must bo prepared to lay down goods as cheaply in Northern Nebraska as the merchants of Sioux City. The western part of the Republi can Valley is beginning to fool the en livening effects of the railroad exten sion of the II. A M. The price of grain is rising rapidly , and there is a heavy demand for hay to feed the teams , Three hundred teams are at work west of Culbertson , and the grading is being pushed forward as rapidly as possible. The 13. & M. are evidently heading for Colorado , nnd "on to Denver" become somo- thing moro than a motto. TIIK reports received from the var ious counties in the state hilly verify the crop estimates made by TUB BEE earlier in the season. The average of wheat will scarcely oxccol so von bush els an acre while corn will bo heavier than it was first anticipated owing to the Into rains. Our contemporaries who believe that it aids a state to pub lish glaringly false statements of its harvest which are afterwards as pub & licly contradicted will please take duo not ice and govern themselves accord ingly.

The most brilliant social event of thes season , if not in the history of our city , wns the reception given by Mr. and Mrs. J. N. II. Patrick , on Thurs day evening , to Col. M. II. Patrick and his bride upon their return from fro East. Fully five hundred invita tions had been issued , and in nnlicipn tion of full dross , Omaha's belles had for weeks past been making claborato preparations to do justice to them selves and honor to the occasion. THE KVENINO wns all that could Imvo been desired. The rains of the previous day had laid the dust and a day of warm sunshine had dried the roads leading to Happy Hollow , making the three-mile drive from the sity as pleasant aa possible. From 8 o'clock until 10 n long procession of carriages filled St. Mnry's avenue and the West Omaha road , nnd lined the crest of the hills , amid which the beautiful homo of the Patricks lies nestled. A LOVKI/V MOONLIC1IIT made 1 the drive doubly pleasant. From 1t the point where the road turned north ward from the Catholic cemetery , TI brilliantly colored Chinese lanterns pointed I the way to the sccno of the t evcning'B festivities. As the guests approached Happy Hollow n beautiful and dazzling sight present ed itsolf. The grounds surrounding the residence were glowing with a thousand gaily colored lights. The roads lending to the gateway were hung with hundreds of lanterns suspended from the trees , making the surroundings as bright as noon day and revealing the clnbor.ito ar rangements which had been made for the preparation of the guests of the evening. From the roar , of the residence - donco a long" PORTL COC1IE11K , sixty feet in length , with cov ered sides , extended from the door to the carriage drive. Alighting and passing through into the spacious hnll of the mansion to the second story , the guests were nt once shown to the reception rooms , where wraps were removed and the lust finishing touches ' placed on toilets In the parlors Mr. and Mrs. J. H. N. Pat rick , assisted by their son , Robert W. Patrick , received the rapidly increas ing i ; arrivals , who were ono by ono introduced i : to Col. Patrick nnd his 4jrido. From 0 o'clock until after 11 abrilliant company passed in and out the parlors to tender their congratu- tions. It * seemed as if all of Omaha's best society had 1 postponed every other engage ment to do honor to the occasion. The handsome rooms were elegantly decorated with flowers and vines , in' ' , the arrangement of which rare taste was displayed. ON THE PIAZZAS the scene was oven , perhaps , moro brilliant. Extending around the en tire residence and connecting with the cottage on the east a broad piazza , fourteen feet wide and nearly 'two hundred feet in length , afforded promenade unusually adapted for a largo company. It was hung with colored lanterns alone ; its entire length and covered with crash for the better accommodation of the dancers. Hero the Ninth Infantry band were s/ationed / and furnished the choicest pieces of music from their repertoire to which thirty seta of dancers kept merry time. During the evening in the intermissions between the music , a number of brilliant displays of fireworks took place on the lawn , fronting the residence. Dancing be gan ut nine o'clock and the programme was not concluded until midnight. From ten until twelve the uupper room was a point of attraction to many where an elegant repast was served to the guests of the evening , Shortly after 12 o'clock the music called the dancers to c THE OKllMAN. ii The favors for the German were un < iiI iid usually costly and elegant , having I lieon purchased in Now York express ly for the occasion , Two sets of dancers participated , as follows : Robert Patrick and Miss Wnkcly , Will Morris and Miss Hurley , Arthur \Vakely nnd Miss Steel , Richard Her- in and Miss Chapman , Warren Switzer - er and Miss Rustin , Richard Can lor indTUiss Lchmor , George Savn o and J.
