THE REabia * IN IJOUaJLAS
COUNTY.
A canvass of the returns indicate
the election of the entire republican
ticket of Douglas county from sheriff
to county comminsioncr. Such a re
suit is satisfactory guaranteeing ni
able nnd efficient county govornmon
for the next two years , and aa such i
will bo eonornlly accepted by the tnx
payers of both parties.
A number of lessons may bolcarnot
by tlio republicans of Douglas count }
from the lute canvass nnd election
Tlio first is that the hirgo element o
independent republicans in Omaha
and its vicinity only ask inir play a
the primaries and a respectable Bet u
candidates to induce their support for
tlio party nominees. The city elec
tion last spring showed conclusive ! }
their power in our municipal politics ,
and had the same buru-faccd , fraudu
lent methods been used during the
present canvass the result would
in all probability have boon decided
differently. In jommon with many
republicans wo did not npprovo of the
composition and methods of the coun
ty convention , but the candidates
placed in nomination were hotter than
the convention itself , nnd in every
war superior to thoao on the demo
cratic ticket. AH stated nl the limo
by this paper , they were competent
Mid respectable- citizens , and on this
iccount they received the hearty sup
port of all elements in their party ,
i'heir success was a recognition of
lernonal qualifications for office
'ally ns much as that of
uirty afliliation. Last , but not
cast , their BUCCO-W is due to the
jenoroua support of TUB ] { nn and the
ilement which it represents. The
ilogo call which Mr. Knight received
vas the natural result ot placing in
loniinntion a candidate who had nl-
'cody served three terms. The poo-
ilo are opposed to long tenures of of-
ice in public ofllcials no matter how
loneat and otherwise popular the in-
lividual. This is u lesBon which our
laminating convention ! ) will do well
0 commit to memory us it may p.avu
hem in the future from dimmlcr.
Tlio democrats of Douglas county
rill probably learn nftet n timu tlmt it
Iocs not pay to oppose a good ropub-
ican ticket with a weaker ono ; in
ilher words , that it is risky to at-
1'inpt a nice with a mismatched team.
Phere is a large element in the ru-
mblican party that usually Hiip'porta
.ho best men in local elections , but us
1 rule thuy will not scratch thuir party
laminations unless they are fully aatls-
lo'l that by BO doing they will bu aid
ing in the election of batter men.
ARCHBISHOP MoHALE.
Since the great liberator O'Connell
closed hia patriotic career in "Superb
Genoa , " on the Mediterranean in
1847 , when poor Ireland was steeped
in misery , no mail lm no ondourod
himself to the affections and es
teem of the Irish people us the late
Archbishop John Mcllale , whose death
is Hashed by cable across the Atlantic ,
The announcement that the "Lion of
the Fold" the great patriarch arch
bishop ot the west is numbered with
the illuutrious dead in the old "lalo
of the Saints , " will fill oyory genuine
Irishman's soul with deep Borrow and
sadness. Our numerous readers who
have proudly watched the career ,
political and ecclesiastical , of this
great man , have our warmest sympa
thies , nnd wo Hhare in common with
every representative of liberal line
free government in the fresh sorrow.
John McIIalo was born of rathoi
poor but respectable parents , ninut ]
years last Match , which month proverbially
vorbially "comes in like a lion" in
Ireland , and "goes out like a lamb. '
After a parochial school and academ ;
education in Oastlobar county Mayo
ho entered the National college o
Maynooth , in his fifteenth year , am
alter a most distinguished career as
student and professor till June 182D
'ho ' was promoted by Pope Lee XII ,
to thu co-adjulorahip of KillaU
hi' ) native diocese. After nine years
of most devoted service in thi
capacity , hu waa translated to Tuain
in 1834 , and was since that tun
among thu most prominunC of th
EnellBh-spoaking bishops of th
Catholic world. Nobody who has anj
historical knowledge of the Ireland o
sixty yoara ago , and the progress mad
by her socially , politically and religiously
iously , will hesitate to give the de
ceased archbishop credit fcr the bold
est and most disinterested patriotisi
in every movement from the days o
the veto emancipation and repeal
down to the disendowmont mid dis
establishment of the Protostan
church , and the late substantial settle
mcnt of the Irish land question.
Archbishop Mcllalo achieved renown
nown not only in Great Britain bu
all over Europe by his literary labors
Ilo did much to revive the use of th
Irish language , translating in the orig
nal metres sixty of Moore's "Iris
Melodies , " published Irish tratmla
tions of six books of the Iliad am
also of the old testament. lie pub
Hshcd a largo volume of letters to En
glish cabinet ministers on the polit
ical and religious grievances of his co
religionosts in Ireland , Ho dufondet
in 1871 the freedom of voting fron
landlord coercion in elections and ad
ministrod to the celebrated Judge
Kcogh a well merited castigation.
As a prelate the late Archbiahoj
was as active as ho was successful.
Ho built a cathedral at Bui I inn , built
orrobnilt over ono hundred churched
and established numerous parish
schools.
Every Irishman who reveres the
momorj of the great historical charac
ters of 1 ho land of his birth will ,
wo take it for granted , pay homage to
the illustrious dead by some appropri
ate demonstration in recognition of
his eminent services. As the deep ,
dark waters of Lough Swillyin north
ern Ireland , echo the national dirge
of a sorrowing natirn since the bril
liant nnd patriotic Bishop Maginn
was laid in a premature grave , in
1840 , so will the ocean bound , rugged
coast of this afflicted island tran.imit
the national wail of to-day , whei- all
that was mortal of Archbishop Mc-
LTalois reverently laid in a grave
specially hollowed for the patriotic
sons and daughters of an emancipated
and grateful nationality ,
W. A. CARTER.
In the death of Judge W. A. Carter
vhich occurred on Monday nt his
lomo at Fort Bridgor , Wyoming ter
ritory , loses ono of it'n most active
uoncors nnd the West nn honored nnd
useful citizen. For aquarturof acon-
ury Judge Carter has been prominent-
y identified with the development of
ho trans Missouri country. Locating
n 185 ! ) in what was then a portion of
Jtah , for twonty-livo year's ho has
naintainod in the midst of a desert
waste a homo whore culture roign-
d and whoso refinement was
n marked contrast to its dreary
urroundinga. To hundreds of army
fficcrs and distinguished literary and
scientific celebrities , Fort Bridger and
udgo Carter's name must always by
nsepnrabiy connected. The latch
: ring to hia door was always out , and
iia unbounded hospitality nnd genial
ourtosy have bncomo household
ords. In the days of overland stag-
ng his homo daily received as wol-
omo guests the , wearied traveler
ournoying across the alkalai
ilaitis. Few prominent Amori-
ana who , within the past
, wcnty-fivo years have made the over- ,
and trip failed to meet , know nnd ro-
pect Judge Carter. His list of
rionds was not bounded by the limits
f political and army associations ,
'hu scientific world found in him an
arnust and warm coworker From
lis liouso have gone snino of the most
aluiible scientific results in the field
f palaeontology and Leidy , Cope and
Vl.arsh have recognized his invaluable
ssistanco to their labors in a score of
ciunlific publications.
But it will bo as a noble manly
nd courteous gentleman that Judge
Carter will bo best remembered by hit
rionds. To remarkable strength of
will ho united thu tenderness of a wo
man. Of unbounded charity no ap
peal from need or suffering over failml
o uieut , a ruaily response from his gen
erous heart. Ho bore himself in alt
, ho relations of domestic lifo like the
rue gentleman which ho was. Hit >
attachment for home and family wui-
wonderfully doopand tender and crow
stronger with his declining years. His
osa will bo deeply felt by many resi
dents of Omaha who have experienced
iia princely hospitality and who have
earned to love and honor him for
.hoso qualities of heart and mind
which made their possessor of one the
most remarkable and distinguished
characters in the West.
TIIR people of Denver havoconclud
ud lively fight against railroad polit
ical rule which has resulted in the
comuloto discomfiture of the railroad
candidates and the triumph of the
people. The Tribune and ItyMtb/tcati /
joined hands in denouncing the CO'
ulition made by John Evans and tlu
Union Pacific and in exposing those
moves on the corporation chess boarc
which are so familiar to every citizer
-Nebraska. . Under the guidance ol
those two fearless journals the mer
chants of Donyor refused to bo bull
dozud or cajoled into supporting tlu
railroad candidates and by earnest
and united work the railroad factiot
was defeated along the entire line ,
Denver has suffered too much froir

tempi to fasten its grip on her local
politics it firmly but emphatically calh

O.VHof the most interesting features
in the late elections was the strength
of independent movements. Mr.
Wolfe , who announced himself as an
independent republican candidate for
the state treasurerahip of Pennsyl

paign without a single vote pledged
to him , has received 50,000 votes in
the Keystone state on the solo ground
of his opposition to ring rule , and Mr.
Seth Low , n young business man of
Brooklyn , has betn clttctod mayor of
that city by , ' $ ,000 majority , solely on
.ho ground of his opposition to the

ADAMH county anti-monopolists deserve -

efforts wore put forward by the rail

Now York Indicator ,
Speculating on what the volley o
the Mississippi may eventually be
come , ono of the speakers at the recent
cent convention quoted Capt. Kads as
follows :
"The garden-which it ( Minsissippi
river ) beautifies and enriches contains
708,000,000 acres of the finest lands
on the face of the globe. Enough to
make more than ICO states as largo
as Massachusetts. Acres uf tlu
choicest soil in profusion sufficient tc
duplicate England , Great Britain ,
Franco , Spain , Austria , Prussia ,
European Turkey nnd the Italian pen-
innula combined. If peopled as Bel
gium and the Netherlands are , with
lot olio half the danger of famiuo ,
it would contain 400,000,000 of souls ,
nearly one-third the population of the
entire earth. Human comprehension
cannot grasp the grandeur of euch nn
empire. Human wisdom cannot osti-
nato the wonderful value of such nn
inheritance.
This suggests the consideration
whether , after all , the great east and
west lines of traffic have much to fear
: rom competition with the Mississippi
river. The population nnd production
will bo so vast as to nfford abundant
employment for the two means ol
; ranait. Indeed , the increasing local
.radio consequent upon the increasing
> opulation of the country , may confi-
lentty bo relied on to compensate
; ho railways for any loss of "through"
freight which they may sustain by the
competition of the "improved" Missis
sippi. It is our belief , also , that
tlthough the present ratio between th
quantities of grain shipped cast and
soutfi may not bo maintained in
uture the disturbance is likely to
jo caused ns much by an increase
n the whole volume of expor-
.ation , of which increase the south
will gain the uryator portion , aa by an
absolute reduction of the quantities
shipped east by rail. Ono thing is
quite curtain , namely , that the eastern
> orts will maintain their supremacy
in the matter of importations , owing
; o the general character of the mer
chandise imported making rapid transit
to ita destination advisable ; but ,
perhaps , most of all , because of the
tixed superiority of the eastern
ports , and particularly ol
Now York , in the matter of capital to
control such importations , nnd from
the facilities afforded in the matter of
Foreign exchanges. Still anothercom-
pensation will bo found by the rail-
waya for any diminution in cast bound
freight destined for exportation , in an
increasing eastern market for western
productions. The increase of popula
tion in the castt will not result in a
corresponding increase in ita agri
cultural productions , but probably
reverse , thus resulting in an aug
mentation in the consumption of the
western staples. Surveying the whole
ground , wo think the probabalitioiare
that increased facilities for transpor
tation over the so largo an area of the
country as that comprised within the
immediate influence of thoMiasifsippi ,
while probably affecting that portion
more favorably than the others , will
ynt be of great benefit to the whole.
The St. louts MUlon.
St. Louis Republican.
Owing to the present price of wheat
and an unusually large stock of flour
on hand at the various trade centers ,
some of the largest mills in the coun
try have shut down temporarily , or.at
least until some of the supply of flour
can bo worked off. The Milwaukee
millers mot a few days ago and re
solved unanimously to shut down ;
and it is now reported that some of
the St. Louis mills will follow suit. In
fact , several of thu mills here are only
grinding enough to fill orders , but
nearly nil of the St. Louis mills are as
yet running. One or two of them are
closed for repairs , and the largest and
strongest firms wish to avoid the ne
cessity ot shutting dox n at all , though
they may conclude to do so if they see
there is no money in piinding at pres
ent. Mr. J. B. M. Kehlor , of the
Laclcde mills , raid last night that ho
had hoped there would bu some con
cert of action and that all the mills
would agree to ccaeo grinding until
trade picks up. "It they do not , many
of them will bo forced to shut down. "
It was also currently reported on
'chango yesterday that a number of
the country mills had quit grinding ,
and that the Minneapolis mills were
about to take the eaiiio steps. As to
the cause , a prominent and ono of the
largest and boat posted Hour dealers in
the city , said last night that the crop
of wheat in the north-east was greatly
damaged , and the tlour ground from
that wheat and now stored in ware
houses in the east is also suid to bo
unsound , that is , a largo part of the
stock. Then , again , the supply in the
east is extra largo , and the demand is
not as great aa the supply. Since the
first of the month freight rates have
advanced from 40 to 50 cents per bar
rel from hero to Boston nnd New
York , and this advance has a material
effect on the market. It causes the
dealer to add the 10 cents on the
price of ilour per barrel. If there was
no doinandsutlicient to work off stocks
before the advance in freight rates ,
the advance itself throws another
diunpor on the thing. This dealer al
so says that ho understands that there
is a movement on foot by the millers
to bring about a universal shutting
down of the mills for thirty days , in
which time the supply would bu re
duced throughout the United States.
At present the stock in St. Louis ,
as , reported by holders to the Mer
chant's exchange , is 113,000 barrels.
It is pretty generally understood
though that if fully joportod the stock
would exceed thesu figures , Somn of
; ho largo holders of flour either fail at
times to make reports or are careless
m giving in the figures. The dealer
then wont on to toll ( something nboul
the Ilour shipped to New Kiigland ,
ground from spring wheat , lie sniu
that the very fact of so much of it being -
ing unsound , it would bo natural to
suppose there would bo croatnd a de
mand for St , Louis flour , ground from
good wheat. Hut then the qucctjon
arises , if that damaged flour ii being
sold at a largo discount buauiio of its
unRoundni'ss , may it not force the St.
Louis miller * nnd dealers to reduce
their superior and sound gradus in
order to meet these prices ? This ho
regarded as a , serious question , and
is being carefully considered hero.
INDIAN GIRL GRADUATES.
Crying Tholr ETCH Out When Sen
Baolc Homo-
A correspondent of the Now Yor
Herald , writing from the CrowCreo
agency , says : "While I was galloj
ing back to the fort in the company o
Dr. Berger , the post surgeon , w
came upon a handsome Indian gii !
ho was sauntering along the road
side. She proved to bo Ziwin
or Yellow Woman , ono o

ably cut polonaise , jaunty bonnet ant
a pair ot hich-healed French shoes
as she drew back and modestly shad
ed her eyes with b tiny gloved hand
Ziwin was the strongest advocate of ed
ucation that could have been sen
among the susceptible braves of Crow
creek. She la the daughter of Don't '
Know-How , an Indian store-keepHr
who displays over his door the sign
D. K. Howe. ' When little Ziwii
was sent to the college at Hampton
[ loads her father's house
appear td , in comparison witl
: he surroundings tepees , to
jy a palatial mansion. The impres
sion was not effaced even by contac
with eastern luxury during her college
ifo , and last Week the girl looked for

coption which her father had arrangec
'or ' horretuin. But vhen she walkt (

ng Ziwin turned everything upsidi
down , nnd began a genera
louse cleaning. Her father ap
appealed nt the agency an hour later
with a melancholy countenance , anc
t ia a question ns to how long ho ci
stand the regime of cleanliness whic
lao been inaugurated. After a fei
