" Mr. Wuttoraon is a veritable Saul among the Bourbon apostles. OWE pf the , thinnest of excuses fur adding Monday , January 2d to the usual holiday vacation in the public Bchools in Omaha is that the teachers need the day for calling , There is u recognized way by which the teachers can obtain every day in the year for culling , and that is by resigning their positions. CONOHEHS should take prompt and vigorous measures for a searching in vcstigation into the pension frauds. The veterans of the war and their widows and orphans are in a measure the wards of the nation , but the claim agents and bop us pensioners should bo hunted down and exposed and when possible severely punished.

BLAINE'S RETIREMENT. The nomination of ex-Senator Fro- linqluiyson as the successor to Sucre- ' tnry Blnlnu in the state department , which was sent to the senate yesterday by the president , will undoubtedly bo promptly confirmed Mr , Blaine is expected to retire from the duties of Ins otllco during the present week to engage in private business. Humor has it that President Arthur offered him thu English mission in the place of Minister Lowell , but the offer was promptly declined by Secretary Blainu , who announced his intention ot retir ing entirely from public life and tak ing a \\oll earned rest from the duties of government service. Mr. Blaine'n term of nfllco in thu state department hai been brief but brilliant. It has afforded him the opportunity of adding to his previous renown as a statesman and a legisla tor the laurels of n distinguished diplomat. Ho Imi refused to bo the mere figure head of a government de partment whoso duties were performed by assistants and clerks. Every state paper has been marked by that vigor and brilliancy which has always been clmractoristio-of the congressman and spenkcr. The iight of our government in their rela tions to foreign governments have boon firmly maintained while his olllcial courtesy and tact have made him papular in every court abtoad. The nlato pnpcr by which Secretary Blaine will bo most leiiium- bored is his recently published letter to Minister Lowell defining the posi tion of the United States government upon the inter-oceanic canal , and thu proposed guarantee of its neutrality European powers. This document irccd moro attention nnd comment jroad than any other p.ipor on the nbject , and was extensively dis assed by the London jourim's as 10 strongest presentation of the sub. ect which had yet appeared. Dining 10 president's illness the dutin ? of ecretary Bl.iino wore vastly increased iy the great mass of correspondence Inch poured into the state depart- lent from foreign courts. The grace nd felicity of thu replies of thu secro- ary ot state left nothing to bo desired ml increased foreign ruspcct for the tialifications of American oflicialo. There will bo general regret that Ir. Blame's retirement from the state epartmont will be followed iy bio retirement from pub- c life. For twenty years o hoii been u prominent figure in Vmorican politics who early forced his way to the front of the house of ropre ontativcs by the display of brilliant alonts nnd remarkable force of chur- , cter. His entry into public lifo was , lmost coincident with the opening of ho rebellion. No history of the epoch imbracing the war period und the ro- onstruction period can over bo writ- enwithout recording tlio brilliant pooches and the victorious parliamen tary contests of this acknowledged eader of the republican party. The Umax to Mr. Blaino's congressional career wan the speaker-ship of the ouso , which ho won upon the elec- lon of Schuyler Colfnx to thu vice- residency in 1808. It is scarcely probuulo that Mr. Maine will bo permitted to remain eng in his voluntary retirement. Men f his c.ilibro are too rare in public fo to bo easily dispensed with. UNCLE SAM'S NAVY. A few weeks rgo the board of naval Ilicera appointed by the nocratary of he navy , in July last , to suggest the ilassea and number of vessels required 'or a now navy , concluded its labors. Tlio board hai agreed upon all dotai's ' xcept the material of which vessels \ro to be built. The naval ofllcors fa Tored steel , but the imvul contractor * nd some of the engineers opposed on ho grouhd of its oxponsivonoss. Some of the opponents to steel also .Bsertod . that American iron is cquul o the steel used in foioign ship building. After much wrangling the whole bourd c.imo to an agreement , nul in their repurt to thu secretary of ho navythoy tecommund : "Two lirflt-ratt ) stooldouble decked , nntriuoiud uiuisurs , with a speed of lilteun knot * , to cunt § 3,51)0,000j six lirat-r.itu steel double docked - , , unar- moml crnmerx , with u npoed of four teen hiioU , to cost 88.fitL)000 ! ; ion Hi-cond-iHtu steel , single decked , unar. mured cruiscis , with a speed of thir teen knolH , to cimtSi ) ; ! ( ) U,00 ( ) ; twenty fouttlii.iioondun enuauu , with a fipnod of about tun Unnttt , to cost 84- IHiO.OOO ; live HU'ol nuiH , with impend of thirteen knoti , to ooat S'J.fiOO.OOO ; live torpedo gunboats , with a speed of not 1m than thirteen knots , to cost 8725,000 , Steul is recommend ed for the construction of the hulls of unarmored - mored vessels. " This makes a total of forty-eight ves sels , at an aggregate cost of § 28,077 , 000. Thu report ditiers materially from that telegraphed a few weeks ago , in that it is now proponed to build 4ii vessels nt a cost of ? : )1,000,000 ) , at first suggested. Nothing has been said heretofore about thu rums and torpedo boats , and thorc is good rea son io buliovo that these offsprings ol the active brains of Hoar Admira Ammon and Admiral Porter Jmvi boon tacked on to the report. These officers appear voryar.xioust | < put the American navy on a war foot ing , but they have made a very in definite repot t as regards thu probabli coat of < such a navy. In thu lint place , it is' to bo pro I sinned that the classes of vessels i mm oil nrc to bo nuporior to similar ships in the French niul British nnvy. The ten socoiid-rnto , single-decked cruisorn , with a Bpocd of thirteen knots , are estimated ut SMO.OOO each. Tlieir nearest types in England niul Franco arc the llovornnd the Duquay- Trnuior. Tno cost of the former was $782,4COaiidof the latter , § 701,300 , in- eluding her armament. Neither of these vessels are built of steel , but have iron hulls sheathed with wood , The coat of the former is 224 per ton displacement , the latter S'JoL' per ton , The naval advisory board now pro poses to build stool vessels superior to the above named nhipa at an increased coat of only 18 per cent , over the French ships and 20 per cent , above the Rover , notwithstanding the well- known fact that labor is twicu as high hero as in England , and nearly three times Creator than in Franco , and that materials al.so much more expensive Superiority of American workman ship cannot enter into the calculation at nil. Our navy yards hnvo no ox poriunco whatever in iron ship build ing , nor hnvo wo the facilities. The estimates may liavo been obtained from private ship builders , but are of no value , as none would consider such an estimate binding to take a contract for building the ves.sols. The move seems to bo a very shrewd scheme for obtaining u portion of the money with which to build a now navy , and congress gross , before acting , will do well to ascertain , First , Whether a navy is wanted. Second : Whether the clans of ships submitted arc the most desircablo ; and third , what the actual expenses of the new navy will ho , which includes the implements for their construction in navy yards , the cost of hulls , engines , rigging mid out fit , tind , ihmlly , thu cost of the requis ite armament equal at least , to any for eign mum. It is quite certain that the report of the advisory board should not bo accepted as final. TIIKHK are two reasons why Mr. Edward Atkinnon'a prediction of : i panic in railroad stock within seven years seems to bo well founded. In the first place , railway extension is progressing much more rapidly than cither the present or prospective traflio will warrant. The tendency of the times is to gigantic consolidations of interests and the strengthening of a few systems by the absorption and extension of others. The desire to "hold now territory" against opposing railway management is largely respon sible for the building of parallel and cross lines , witli spurs to points of small importance and still smaller traflic , while the rush for " " "through connections" is resulting in the rapid construction of thousands of miles of track to "termi nal points" over country which will not for yean and possibly never can contribute its quota of local traflic. A railroad is presumed to bo a busi ness investment , built for the pur pose of securing profitable returns on the capital outlay. Its primary ob ject is the payment oi dividends from the transportation of freight and pus- Bougora The experience of railroad ing in this country has boon that no company can niako a profit from through traiiic unless reinforced by a steady and profitable return from the business at interme diate local points. It is on this ac count that English investors arc already becoming alarmed nt the reckless - loss extension of the r.ulroiul system in this country and view with much concern any proposition for now loans from American railroad corporations. The tune must come when stockhol ders will begin to clamor for dividends and distrust of managements will precipitatea general downward move ment oi stocks which can only have one ending. This result is likely to bo hastened by the speculative basis which under lies all the railroad construction of the present time. An honestly built and equipped toad in almost .it raru now-a- duya its iiu ocean stoimiur sixty je\rc : a < { ( > , Construction rings are pocket ing millions of money annually which mtiut afterwards bo represented by luitoratl stock , lloatod on the inaikot as dividelid paying property.

It goon without eayin | thut thU condition of affairs canno last long , and that u demand for read ; money causing a stringency in tin market will prick the bubble of base less speculation. Then will follow th crash. In the meantime the west wil welcome every addition to her rail road facilities. As long BB now road to continue to penetrate th thinly settled portions of the countr on the capital of their projectors , n objection will bo made. If rapi railway extension proves in the en disiistrus to the stockholders of th corporations , it has the balancing ate o vantage of assisting in the dovoloj tnient of the country , and increasin the population of the west. A Ki'.w weeks after the memorable fit in tho'.Drooklya theatre , an ordinnnc requiring owners of theatres and pub lic halls in Omiha to provide proper means of pjtit wna drafted by the editor of TUB UP.B , and passed by our city council without dissent. Ex- Mayor Wilbur killed the ordinance by a pocket veto , and the effort to pre vent a terrible disaster was defeated. The awful calamity that befell the people of Vienna last week attain re calls the danger which Omaha is recklessly courting. The fire traps in which thousands of our men , women and children have so often ex posed their lives still exist. Unless our city authorities take prompt and stringent measures to compel the owners of these resorts to provide means for escape in case of fire , wo shall sooner or later witness n heart rending calamity in this city that will remain aperpctu.il reproach to Omalm. Now is the time for the council to act. SOMB of our Nebraska patriots who desire to servo their country will bo dclightod to learn that there is now n fair clmnco for the establishment of n territorial government in Alaska. Senator Sherman lion introduced n bill that looks toward this end and the bill hnfl been referred to the com mittee on Territories ofjwhich Senatoi Saunders is chairman. This bill sots up a judicial district in the territory , and establishes there a district court , with jurisdiction civil and criminal , which is given by law to district courts of the United States , and such other jurisdiction as may bo conferred by the laws of Washington territory. A. judge is to bo appointed by the president , at a salary of § 3,000. The bill also provides for the appointment of an attorney and marshal for the district , whose foes and salaries shall bo the same as those of similar officers in Washington Territory. A clerk is also to bo appointed. Two terms in each year are provided for , one at Sitkix and the other nt Wrangol , with special sessions when necessary , The general criminal laws of Wash ington territory are extended over Alaska. Three justices of the peace are to be appointed , ono to hold court at Sitka , ono at Wrangol , and the other on deck of a revenue marine steamer , in any port nloiif/ the coast. Appeals from justice courts must betaken taken to a district court. Thn tines received by justices are to bo paid to a collector of customs. There are alao to bo three constables , one of whom is to bo jailor. Justices are to have jurisdiction in all testamentary end probate matters and their courts are to bo courts of record. Justices are to bo ox otlicio United States court commissioners , and have the power to grant writs of habeas corpus. HEKB is a chance for fame and for tune. If our ambitious Nebraskans can't secure the district judgeship they CMi.compeiM foppositions of honor , profit and trust as justices of the peace and constables. THE original bridge charter of 1871 requires the Union Pacific to con- truct a wapon bridge across the Mis souri river between Omaha and Coun cil Bluffs , in connection with their railroad bridge. That provision oi fcho charter has never boon complied with to the serious detriment of both Omaha and Council Bluffa. The necessity for such a bridge is becoming more pressing every day. The present transfer of passengers and vehicles by dummy trains causes constant annoyance and delay. It is now eight years since the bridge has ) been complote'd and there is. not a shadow of excuse for the failuie of the company to erect the wagon bridge as originally projected. It seems to us that the time is at hand when some action should bo taken , either to en force the charter obligations of the bridge company or to organize a bridge company that will creek u wagon bridge independent of the Union Pacific. Tin ; director of the mint figures out the profit on silver coinage for threi years as 80,731,210. That sum honestly expended in the improve , mont of the Missouri liver would enable the government to establish i permanent channel with water enougli to tloat a licet of grain barges hoUvcoi Sioux City and St. Louts and n lieu of coal barges between the coal field1 above the Yellowstone/ and thu towm and cities in the Missouri valley. Am yet the eminent financiers thatborrov their inspiration from Wall streo want the coinage of silver stoppei entirely because there is too mucl silver in the United States treasury 10 OLD Subsidy Roach is at it again Senator Kellogg lias introduced tw bills in the senate for subsidizin American steamship linos.
