Foit the fust time in many years thu republicans uloct a mayor in lioston which affords encouraging evidence that in this elf year in politics the re publican party holds ita own. is the only light by which to study the paving question , and ox'iorionco [ denounces every pavement - mont but stone on streets whore thu trallio is heavy as a temporary and expensive mako-shift. THE official ciinva.ss of the votes cast in the Fifth judicial district attor ney show that Vie Biorbower received 77CO votes to 0 scattering. This is what Each Chandler would call a dd unanimous sort of election. THE election of Riddloborgor knocks the bottom out of Bourbon 'schemes to control the United States isoiiato , and affords a fair prospect of Virginia's electoral veto being cast for a republican president in 1884. OVEII 35,000 deaths occurred in Now York city during the uluvun months of the present year which is greater by 10,000 than the number of births recorded. Dirty streets and neglect of sanitary requirements are lartroly responsible for this frightlul death rate. THE St. Louis Republican thinks congress ought not to divide the at tention on the river question , by bestowing - stowing appropriations on smaller streams than the Mississippi. St. Louis , as IIBUH ! , is very hoggish , but the Missouri can hold its own with the Mississippi.

SKNATOK PKNIILKTO.N'H resolution giving members of the cabinet scats in senate and the right to participate in debates touching matters connected with their departments , is an imita tion of the British constitution under which ministers of the crown are pro- cent at all sittings of the parliament to answer questions relating to the policy and conduct of the government , The advantages of this system are supposed - posed to lie in the greater and more direct reaporuibility of the executive to the lavT'tnaking branches of the government.

Now that the various departmental statistics have been presented for public inspection and approval , it be comes an easy tnsk to estimate the bnsinc.'s and financial condition ol our country , the sources of its revenue , the effects of thu harvests unon trade and the general outlook for the imme diate future. It is Kcnorallyndmtttcd that the year pant has been a mosl prosperous ono for America in over ) branch of trade and commerce. . Out manufacturing industries have boon pushed to the utmost to supply the orders for their goods. Wholesale trndo in all branches has maintained a growing activity. Tin bunk clearings , wliioli are the surest index of the current and amount ol business , have b' > on nnprucodontedly Lirgo , failures have been comparatively few in number and small in amount , and a gcnor.il hcalthfulncns has per vaded all our commercial relations , both domestic and foreign. The amount of business tramtactci by the people of the United Stater can readily bo estimated from a study of the figures presented by Comptrol ler Knox in liia annual report recently presented to congress. On Keplcmboi 17th , 1881 , the transactions of nl the national banks aggregated $205- 000,000 , of which Now York citj banks had $105,000,000 and ninety- live banks in Boston , Philadelphii and Chicngo only $5.1,000,000. Uthei statistics taken into considur.itioi with the above would indicate tha threo-flrtliH of Iho untiru business o the tuition is transacted through tin Now York clearing house asssociation During the past year the business o Now York city , as shown by its bank ing traimactions , amounted to foity eight millions of dollars. Kiti mating this sum as thrco fifths o the entiio husinoHS done throughou the countiy , and the yearly bu'sinuBf of the American people must hi placed at the enormous mini of eightj thoimnd millions of dollars. 01 coiirdu no estimate can bo strictly nc cur.xto. The clearings of the baul.f l > y no means represent all IhohusinetF tmiiHuctions in the country , althouj , ! thu jiroportion of eominc'rcinl matt * re which are transacted by elieipio ie constantly increaHing. On the othoi hand the speculation in Wall street , which cannot bo regarded as linvinp any relation to business proper , must bo deducted from the calculation. But , taking those two elements into consideration , n fair es timate would tjivo us nearly , if not quite , oghty ! thousand million of dollars lars a i thu amount of business trans acted by the nation during the past year , a romarkahlo showing from any point of view us indicating the produc tive capacity of our country and the ; enoral hoalthfulncss of our commer cial relations. THE UAHLADD BILXi. Senator Garland has introduced a bill regulating the presidential suc cession. Its object is to provide igainst such contingencies as that hroatoned last summer when there was danger for a time that both presi dent und vice president might bo tin- xblo to perform the duties of their allicu. Mr. Garland's bill is drafted o settle the question of succession in : aso of the removal , death , resignation or disability of both president and vico-prusident. Under the present aw the president pro torn of the HOII- ito and the speaker of the house are n the direct hue of succession. The Garland bill provides that after the vice-presidency , the right of BUCCOS- sion shall bo vested in the secratary of state , secretary ot the treasury , and secretary of war. The advant ages of this plan are manifest It has always boon aserious question whether the temporary president of ho senate or speaker of the house s such an ofllcor within the ncatiing of thu constitution .is con- { ruts may designate to act as prosi- lout in Hiicli an emergency. Some inxctiuul objections in addition are irgod by the Now York Herald. L'here are months in every second car when no speaker of the house is n exiatuncu , and there may happen it the s.iino time to bo no president ire tempore of the senate. This ao- lutitally occurred during thopaitsum- uer and for thu third time in our listory. Moreover , either of these illicets may be politically oppos d to ho president whom they are liable to ucceed , and not in accord with ho principles of his lulminia- ration. With the succession udged in the cabinet ministers , hero could be no danger of an nterregnuni for want of the designa- ed person , and each of these olllcors vould bo in full harmony with the resident and thoroughly conversant with the policy and aims of his ad ministration. N Senator Garland's bill will , if enact- id , insure greater stability to our sya- em of government , but in view of recent experience it does not reach far imaucli. It is defective in failing to ileflno presidential inability to perform hu functions of his oflico. Mr. Gar- and leaves untouched the vital quos- ion what , under our constitution , shall constitute inability , by whom it shill bo ascertained nnd what method should bo pursued to give ofllcial an nouncement of presidential inability. Tlicao problems confront congress now and will icquiru practical solution nt an early day. % THE PHILOMATHEAN ICON- CERT. The closing concert of the series given by the Philomathcan club will take place on Thursday evening nl Uoyd's Opera House. TIIK IJKI : hat had occasion since the organization ol this excellent musical association to commend it's work to the people ol Omaha as nn important and ! > tcrc.it- ing ndvanco-in musical culture in out city , Such performances and pro grammes as those which linvo been given by the Philomathcnn club in their concerts in this city are natu rally piooncr in their tendency. They appeal immediately only to n liinitui cliss of the most cultivated of out citizonn. At the same time the in creasing attendance nt the concerts hap shown that the inorit of the perform ers only needs to bo known. The coming contort at Boyd'a Open House will bo a rare musical treat foi which TUB DnK bespeaks a liborn patronage of our citizens. In addi tion to n carefully selected programme of instrumental pieces , Miss Kak James , of Council Blufld , n soprano o ! mo&t promising talents , hns been on- gaged. Miss James , nfterycarBof study abroad linn been engaged by Mnurici Strakosch for his Italian opera com pany , and will bo heard for the kit time in Omaha , before entering upon her contract. She should bo greetcc by n full house on ThuiRilny evening. Omaha's facilities for hearing really good music have been so few , and the diRcnurngomcnts to bo overcome by the miHsionaries in the musical field BO threat that all encouragement ought to bo given to every elFort for the in crease of interest and the cultivation of taste in this important br.uich ol education. 'Jin : classified estimates of the gov eminent for the next fiscal year miinunt to nearly StJO,000,000 ! , an in crease of forty-two millions over the appropriations for the years 1881-82. The largest increase demanded is in the interior department , which , on account of the arroarj-of-ponsions Ruind'u ' , will require double the amount of the ciinent appropriation. The war , stuto nnd imvy departments also call for heavier appropriations , and the treasury and postoflico are the only exceptions to the general increase. The reduction in the interest account is responsible for the decrease in the demands from the treasury while in the postoflico the correction of star route abuses and in creased business contribute to the favorable showing it presents. The following is a comparative re capitulation of the estimates for the coining and the present fiscal year : Objects. 1881. 18 i L-Kl ' t\e ! * 5.0211F4 ? 6,631,709 Exccut.Tojiroper 1(0,84) ( U8.0M I'opo tmdnt ol State. . . 1,473,015 1,420,475 Treaiury Doiartment. . 147UlDei3 1C200087W \V r Department 45rWiO,2T6 44,147/Cr , NMJUcpartmfiU 20 , 7,800 1(1,124,17.2 Iniorlor pensions 112,0fl\042 (10lfcO,7S7 I'oatollicc Department. 2,400,237 4,304,649 Uciortment ol Agricul ture M2.WO F42.720 Department of Justice. 2,610,821 3,890,230 Grand totals * 34u,462,607 8 3il2,722 Sin KinvAUP REID , the distinguished English natal constructor , hns written n letter relative to Captain Eads ship i nil way over the Isthmus of Tehuante- ; > eo.

Keep it Before the People Nrtraika Signal. The farmer who owns $1,000 worth of land or cattle is assessed $500 and ho is very fortunate if his profits upon this investment amount to $100 , or 10 per cent. The Union Pacific mil- road is worth in the market 880,000 per mile. It is assessed at one-tenth that amount and yct the net earnings of thut company for the past year wore were over eleven million dollars after paying all expenses including the cost of keeping a large nnd high priced lobby at the state capital dur ing the whole session of the legis lature. Why is this discrepancy in the as- scssmontand taxation of two different kinds of property in the same State ? Simply because the fanners are assess ed by conscientious men who perform their duties in accordance with law and justice , while the railroads are assess ed by the State officers a majority of whom are and have been notoriously the tools of the railroad corporations. Whenever this board of equalization meets to takes a railroad assessment , there may bo found closeted with them Messrs. Poppleton and TJmrston of Omaha , T. M. Marquette of Lincoln and a number of lessor lights , rep resenting BOCJO of the best legal abili ty of the Stnto , representing both poll- cal parties , and every man a retained attorney for ono of Nebraska's great railroad corporations. Now it matters not whether these men delude our Stnto oflicials with plausible arguments or purchase them with hard : cash and railroad favors the fact remains that the farmer pays ton times as much tax upon a given amount of property its u railroad company does. What is the remedy ? Koou this class of iiK'n out of ollieo until the experi ment has been tried , for one year at loiiHt , of requiring as much tax from Iho i-.iilro.iil inujinutt ) ns you do of thu lomestiuder upon an equal vtiluo in real and peisonal propoity. \Yhentlv5 anti-monopoly pi ink is ' ncorporntcd in the He-publican plat- 'orin , when our present corps of State iflicinls has given place to men muni luted upon mioh n platform and ilodgod to support it , wo may hope -hat in this loapect at least the people nay have equal rights with the r.iil- roads. Meanwhile , keep it before the ) uoplo that this is a matter of dollars incidents to every man who pays taxes n Nebraska ; for every such man pays lot only his own tax but a portion of hat which should come from the U. i' . and B. & M. railroad corporations.

My own strong convic tion is that Captain DcLong lias none to the westward. Lioutona t How- gurd , who made the northwest passage - ago on the Vega with Baron Nor- donskjold , has projected n soirching expedition to the extreme northern Siboriu. Ho also believes that the Jcannotto is to bo sought for in that direction.

This project is one deserving encouragement for the scheme for succoring the missing explorer will bo incomplete unless the search of Capo Chilluskin and vicinity is provided for. ho Ani'-ricun people may bo assured that not only do English geog raphers feel the deep smpnthy for the gallant explorers on Iroard the Jeannette - notto , but that wo shall gladly und actively do what lies in our power to tnnko the search complete , and give any aid that may after duo considera tion appear likely to bo used.

Do Long hns reached Franz Jcsof s Land and is in want of succor , 1 intend to search For him in this direction and bring liim assistance. If I succeed in col lecting suHiciont funds for two win ters , I will attempt to reach the sup posed land to the north , and in this ease it will bo impossible to form any plans before hand. If I , on the other hand , only receive funds for an expedition of a year and a half's duration , I consider it ad visable after having made .1 recon- niossanco to the north togc-into winter quarters in Vega Bay , near Gipo Chil- luakin , and then confine my search to making excursions by sledges in a northerly direction. As in the above case I shall only bo equipped for a year and a half , and the object of the expedition is to render assistance , it would not be advisable to proceed too far with the fillip , for then I should run the risk of fulling short of provis ions and thus be unable to render any assistance to the Jeannette should'wo meet her in distress ; but even if the expedition : is limited to ono winter near Capo Chilluskin , there will bo plenty of work to do. If no trace of the Jeannette has boon found up to Lhat time , I intend to explore the coast eastward with dog sledges in search of her or any documents she may have left. " THE LANDLORDS.
