MR. DOANE'S PRO TEST.
Tftr , George \ \ \ D.mno has been an
earnest and consilient ndvoc.Uo of an-
li-monopoly sentiments in his party.
The manly stand for the right * of the
people ngainst the corporations which
ho took in the logifti Ultra Iwt winter
made for him tinny frindg outside of
his own party ranks , and the earnest-
neil with which , in the fnco of his
own personal and professional inter
ests , ho las ndvoeitod the principles
of nationality has won him the
respect of every candid thinker in No
braskn.
Mr.Djnno believes , and no doubt bo
lievc * truly , that the mass of demo
cratic votora in this ntitu nru not it
sympathy with the ngtjroaslons of thu
monopolies , At the democratic state
convention held on Tuesthy in thin
city ho endeavored toorco upon that

.owing . trenchant and outspoken res
olutionn :
Resolved , That keeping in mind
the teachings of the fatheri and
founders of the democratic party un
der which nil ita gloricua victories in
the past li.'Uo bocn won , wo hereby
luallirm a time-honored principle of
iloniocnicy that the protection of the
rights nf the people should bo , and is ,
the first and pirnmount duty of a re
publican government.
I. That the arrogant claims ot the
railroad monopolies nf the exclusive
right to rcpiluto the transportation
interests and business of that country
is a causa fur serious al.irm , nud if
submitted to result in making the pro
ducers of our vivtt western domain
nioro hewers of wood and di.wers of
water for these exacting mailers.
IF. That it is the light and duty of
the law/junking power to provide by
proper legislation for the regulation of
the rates of transportation over the
highways which have been built by
the aid of the people's treasure and
by governmental agencies and for the
protection of all whether rich or poor ,
powerful or weak , againstrdjscrimin.v

It is un necessary to state that Mr.
Doano'a resolutions were unceremo
niously tabled after J. Sterling Mor

it Q. railroad made hiniyv disinterested ,

tunity to vcntilatoli'sviowson the bene
fits which have acciuod to the people
from the railroads. It was hardly
reasonable for for Mr. Doano to ex
pect any respectful consideration from
juch a body of men who have by their
notion placed the democratic party in
jpposition to the sentiment of the
people of Nebraska. His manly on-
ioaVor to force the issue upon the at
tention of his party aud compel them
to takoa , stand upon the paramount

Inf oriVouiBnco and cdnflisioji. jTn/Now
York and jn several , other states the
party against whom , a diyorco is se
cured is prohibited from marrying
again , , and/Litlu-rto , if such party
went to anbtkor state whoso laws con
veyed no such prohibition and murriud
again , it has been supposed that his
marriage would not bo regarded as le
gal in the state where the prohibitory
divorce had been secured , ' This has
given rise to much dispute and com
plication with regard to the rights of
children by the second marriage. By
a recent decision of the Now York
court of appeals it is laid down that'a
marriage which is valid in the state
nheru it id executed is valid in
the state where the divorce is
obtained. This decision of course
pertains to Now York alone ; but it is
not unlikely that it will bo taken ns a
precedent everywhere that the prohib
itory force of divorces obtain. In
sudU case the prohibitory put might
us well bo abolished altogether , for it
is on easy matter for the proscribed
party to \\horohocancontraotnmar- -
riago which will bo held valid in nli
the states. If the New York decision
is everywhere adopted , the demand
for a constitutional amendment to
unify the marriage laws in all the states
will not bo BO urgent. _

The Century Magazine will have the
general appearance of the old Bcrib

tures of this number is the portrait of
George Eliot , by Uurton , which Mrs.
Gross' family put foith through The

portrait is accompanied by an account
also authorized of her religious and

OTHER LANDS THAN OURS.
Thu oxcltomont in Ireland over the
nrront nf Mr. Parnoll was unprece
dented , The news way Hashed with
lightning rapidity to every county.
Local land leagucsinct and denounced
the outrage. In Dublin stores wore
closed and the black fl.ig hunt ; from
the windows of dwellings. The pres
ence of 40,000 troops alone prevented
the excited people from rising in in
surrection. In England , among the
largo population of Irishmen , the feel
ing was scarcely IOSH intciuo. In Liv
erpool the police force was strength
ened. In Manchester fears were en
tertained by the authorituH of serious
trouble. Mr. Gladstone's return
from the Guildhall in London ivai at
tended 1)3 * hisses from the crowd. A
monster mooting is to bo held in
Hyde Park , the scene ot the great re
form meetings , to protest ng linst the
crowning outrage and most stupendous
deus politic.il blunder of the govern
ment ,
While excitement 1m bcon high and
indignation intense atnotig all Irish
men the admirable organization of the
land league has once more shown its
power in compelling passive resist
ance to English oppression. They
hare boldly protested ngiiuat
the arrest of their lender *
without duo process of law and
for a charge which would bo instantly
dismissed in any courts outsida of
those controlled by the English g6v-
eminent. They have apppealed to
the civil ired world iu express its ( con
demnation of thisHubversionof law and
justice , and they have laid their cause
before the American people , confident
of the verdict which that impartial1
jury will render on1 the case. More
than all , they have by their wise coun
sels prevented an olTusion of blood
and the sacrifice of innocent lives
which would have been certain to have
followed any resistance to the author
ity of England , backed by the mus
kets of 40,000 soldiers and 15,000
policemen. The wisdom , moderation
and policy of the land league shows
that Ireland possesses hundreds of
men fit to lead public sentiment , and
the arrest of a'single leader like Mr.
Parnell can no more stay the tide of
national sentiment than the capture
of a general leading the advance of a
great army can check the progress of
u campaign.
The Scotch land bill forced a signifi
cant remark from Mr. Gladstone in
his Leeds speech. The bill diuwn up
by the Scotch chamber of agriculture
contains the main features of the Irish
bill , and is said to be oven more
swooping in its.provisions. 'Mr/Glad
stone's language leads to the inference
that ho will not support it .without es- ,
jntial changes. Ho said * thatj -rl330 the "
circumstances in England and Scot
land n ere not those of Ireland , but
that much was io bo done in altering
and modifying the English and Scotcli
land laws. The prominence the land
question is assuming in Great Britain
indicates that it will take the prece
dence of the fair trade- movement , n
prospect which iu pleasing to the lib
erals. Mr. Gladstone stated that lie
apurolionded no division in the liberal
ranks ; that everywhere there \\uro
signs of union. IIo defined his foreign
policy as one in which "every foreign
country should bo crcililcd with the
name good motives as ourselves until
it showed to the contrary , and that
every puwcr ivas entitled to the eamo
rights and privileges irrespective of
si/.o. " Ho spoke at length of the cri
sis in Ireland , and pledged the govern
ment to a firm policy , irrespective of
the Parnell movement. Upon econo
mic matters ho had much to say , at
tributing the depression of trade to
the decreased purchasing power owing
to successive bad liaivests. The
speech was one hour and forty min
utes long , and is regarded as an im
portant political manifesto.
Much surprise has bcon expressed
that members of the Russian nobility
are enrolled among the nhiilists. This
was a fact in the days of Alexander
II. , and it is no less true now. Many
nobles who nero neutral , or oven sided
with the czar in the last reign , have
declared themselves , more or less
openly , hostile to the present govern
ment. Two or throe considerations
will help to solve the mystery. One
is the custom of calling the mule mem
bers of noble families , however fur re
moved from the head , "Princes" or
"Counts. " Most of the princes or
couuti who are ubot revolutionary
schemes have no expectations , and
reap no advantage from their titles.
And , again , not all the nihilists are
bloodthirsty assassins. Many of
them , if not , indeed , the majority ,
aim only to secure a constitutional
government by constitutional means.
Discontented noblemen naturally
unite their fortunes with this party ,
and deserve credit rather than appro
bation for so doing.

fifths of the whole population of India
nro now under British rule , and but I
one-fifth in the old feudatory condition
of mlo by native princes The great
est giowth both in numbers nnd
wealth has been in the British pro
vinces. The density of population is
pomclhing astounding oven to an En
islininn whose native isle is bccoin
ing very much crowded , considering
that at least a third of the Hindostan
peninsula is uninhabitable mountain
nnd jungle. The nholu area under
British rule contains but 800,000
square miles ; and the remainder will
not inoro than raise the figures to
1,100,000 square miles.
Germany is becoming seriously
alarmed over the extension of the
American railway syttem into Mexi
co. A Inrpo number of German
houses nro doing business in the coun
try , and if wo may depend on the
statement made by them in the Ger
man journals their interests are ser
iously menaced by the present inva
sion of American speculators. The
German interest in Mexico is largo
and impoihint. They own nearly till
the breweries , control several of the
silver smelting works , besides numer
ous factories reprcsentm ; ; nearly every
branch of trndo"and industry. Ah'cavy
business is done by them.in iron
and not a few of the great
commercial establishments are
also engaged in banking. The fears > pf
the German element in that country
are in all probability well founded
There is no reason \\liy Mexico should
'purchase ' in Berlin what she can buy
in New York , Boston or Philadelphia.
Our merchants have hitherto neglect
ed this great and growing market to
the south of them. The sister repub
lic is almost as little known as Aus
tralia. The graot obstacle in the way
has bcon the want of proper transpor
tation facilities , which are now in a.
fair way of being supplied. Germany
is correct. The American locomotive
is destined to revolutionize the trade
and commerce of that country.
The Russian coinunitios that are
driving out the Jews should remember
the experience of nil nations that
have driven out this or any other re
ligious people. The "driving out"
has bonofitted every other nation moro
than the one that did the driving out.
, Wheii thejtJews iwero driven out ofj
Spaiiuthoy Inrgeijrw nt to the Nether
lands and made that country-instead
of Spain , the chief commercial center
of the world. When France drove
out the Huguenots they settled in
England and Prussia , and , transfer
ring their industries thither , made
those countries , instead * of France ,
the principal manufacturing coun
tries of Europe. The religious perse
cution whichdrovetho puritans io these
shores , gave us hardy Now England
virtues and thrift. Muchuf our west
ern prosperty comes fiom the Men-
nonitcs and others who have been
driven from Russia. The Jesuit ? who
have been driven from Germany and
Franco have created the immense Jesuit -
suit enterprises flourishing' , ! ! ! England ,
Scotland , Wales , Spain and the United
States. It is largely owing to the fact
that the Jews have bcon driven from
all countries that they have in turn
established themselves in nil countries ,
nnd established with them their faith ,
their customs and their traffic. Ex
patriation is only a forced swarming
which multiplies and enriches iho ex
iles , transferring frequently the cen
ter of power and wealth'to ' their now
home.
British beer is a solid British insti
tution. The statistics show that there
ore foity thousand breweries in Eu
rope , and of all the houses in England
and Wales the formidable number of
one hundred and thirteen thousand ,
or one in ev = ry forty , are devoted to
the sale of liquor in some form or an
other Ono boor house in forty is a
record of which every beer lover
should bo proud , All the religions
denominations put together cannot
show as many houses of worahip and
schools , public or'privato. But this is
not the only evidence of the conquer
ing march ami progress of b'sor. Brit
ish spirits and beer represented , so
far as consumption went , in the de.
cado before the la t one , four hundred
and fifty million dollars , while in the
decade just closed those flguius have
risen to the enormous sum of seven
hundred and eighty million dollars.
In the face of all this it is idle to de
clare that beer is on tbo decline ,
Telegraphs and railways in China
have of late occupied much of the at
tention of the government , and pre
parations are now being made to pro
vide both most extensively. About a
year ago the emperor or his couniel-
ors gave thuir sanction for a telegraph
between Peking , Tein-tsln and Shang
hai , which will probably bo com
pleted this year , and but little doubt
exists that all ( lie great cities of thu
empiruill shortly bo united by telo-
graph. Imperial permission has also
been obtained for a railway from the
capital to the port of Tien-tsing , a
distance of seventy miles , and from
there to the river Ynng-tzo-kiang , 500
miles further south.
Ono of several very important navi
gation projects in the north of Europe
that are likely io bo carried out with
in the coming few years In a now chan
nel to connect the North Sea with the
Baltic across the province of Schlos-
wig. Count Von Moltko has recently
been in Sohlcsnig , and is toportcd to
have given a very favorable opinion
of the feasibility of tlio project , and it
is understood that now the govern-
mant wi Imk the IIOIIHO of deputies to
vote the funds necessary for the work ,
Dcgt are being trained in some
corps of the Russian army to act as
sentinels in lieu of men , For tlii
duty the wolf dog of the Ural moun
tains is found most suitable , ns this
animal will growl at the presence of
an intruder itstend of barking out
right , and thus inciting all the dogs
in thu camp to do likewise.
The cost of a first-class locomotive
in Franco varies from $24,000 to § ' 2G-
000. A contract for 100 locomotives
for the State railway was recently
signed at the late of $12,000 , 814,000
and SIO.KOO. These wore for light
traffic and short distance.
NOWH from the Dutch Polar expe
dition on the schooner William Bar
ents , have been received. Owing to
the continuous ice-barrier which ex
tends nearly to Norway , Spitsbergen
could not bo reached , nor yet oven the
Bear Islands ; und after one nioro at
tempt to force through northward the
expedition will retuin home , as the
captain is convinced that this year
Nova /jcmblii is completely enclosed in
a barrier of ice.
The progress of railway building in
India continues to bo rapid. Much
was done during the Afghan war , but
the work diu not stop with the return
uf peace. On January 1 , 1880 , 0,326
af road were open , and 838 miles had
been added during the year then
jnded. Compared with the previous
year , the increase of not revenue was
: ontiidcrably moro than a half million
