A KTORY is going the rounds of the

to boldly advertise that dueling is a

LAW AND ORDER.
The citizens of Omaha arc M n lx > dy
emphatically in favor of the enforce
ment of the lawn nnd the maintenance
of order. The great majority of our
l > coplo are themselves law-abiding cit-
tr.on . They have elected city ollicinls
for the purpose of making and en
forcing the laws , preserving the peacu
and innuring protection to Hfo nml
[ iroporly in Omaha ,
They have a right to expect that
tlicso men will perform tlu-ir sworn
duty. That iworn luly consists 'M '
seeing that not only the loiter but
nlso the spirit of tlm IIIWH shall bo en
forced in this city. Nothing olsu will
meet the reqiriromentH of their official
oaths nnd satisfy the tax-payer * and
respectable elements of society in
Omaha. ,
The reputation which Omaha has in
other puts of the country is largely
duo to the fact that there linn been no
systematic attempt niado to purge the
city of the deim of vice and low dives
n which criminalH are .latched and
reared , murders plotted , nnd whom
orgies nnd drunken debauchery nro of
almost nightly occurrence. Twice
vithin lens than two months Oinnha
ias been plnccd before every reader of
ho telegraphic dispatchtm an a home
of cold-blooded assassination. Yet in
he face of such startling occurrences
here nro newspapers in this uomniun-
ty who have the bra/on audacity to
nforin the public that Omaha hns
never been in n more quiet and order-
y condition than it is to-day and that
the laws have never boon bettor en-
orced.
The time hns comu for the citizens
of Omaha to insist that this commu-
lily Hhall no longer live under the
ruin of threatening thugs and blood
thirsty bullies. An opportunity new
ircsuntn itself by which 'his city can
bo rid of the dens and sinks of ini
quity which disgrnco it. Within a few
days the mayor of Omaha , the city
clerk and the president of the council
will not a board of license to examine
applications and bondri , nnd grant or
refuse permission to sell liquor in
Omaha during the coming throe
months until April 10th. A number of
thi ) lowest saloons in the city have
made1 application for license. To
D'rant license to such place would bo a
grave misinterpretation of the letter
of the law , and a gross violation of
it's ' spirit.
The time has como for the people
of Omaha to1 make their sentiments
known on thin subject. Let nil law-
adiding citizens of this community ,
who are in favor of law nnd order ,
speak out. Let them say to the city
authorities that the city must bo
scoured of low dens and nchools of
vice , "which nro breodidg misery in
our midst , and imperiling the lives
nnd property of citizens of Omaha.
A hearty and united remonstrance
is all that is needed to accomplish this
end.

And whnt hns caused this sudden
change of note in The Omaha Itepub-
lican ? Has it discovered that our
citizens are determined that a stop
shall bo put to the carnival of crime
which has resulted from the non-en-
forcumont of thu laws in this city )
Or has the bloody refutation of their
former statements which the uvouts of
the last few days have given , brought
them to their eensos.
A STUPENDOUS BURDEN.
The slmmeful system under which
the majority of railroads in this coun
try have been constructed has bcon
largely responsible for the gross out
rages which thu producers of the
United Btates have boon compelled to
sutler ut their hands. The corpora
tions tnlk very loudly nbout buing
"business , enterprises" whenever nny
move U raado towards rustricting their
operations by legislative enactment.
It is safe to say that the wildest specu
lation in , private business never run
to the length which have dixgracud
the history of railroad construction in
this country , If it'had , bankruptcy
and ruin would have been the certain
consoquonce. The subject isconcUoly
touched upon by the New York Com
mercial Jiiilltitm as follows ;
The building of railroads has liith.
orto boon simply a branch of specula
tion. As u rule , the constructore
have built thorn nt n cost somewhat
lisa than the amount of thu mortgage
bonds , nnd yet have received in pay
ment not only the bonds but also an
equal or still larger amount in zlmrea.
It bus thus como to pass that the railroad -
road * have been capitalized to un
'
amount double the actual cash outlay.
The companies claim the right to ad
just their rates to this exaggerated
capitalization ; nnd hcnco the public
nro subjected to unreasonable charges
unreasonable Ixicauso they bear
no just relation to the actual capital
invested , It is probable that the
railroad property ot Iho country has
been capitalized at 82,500,000,000 in
exccfis of the sum actually invested.
There has been n gross nojjlect in rail
road legislation in permitting thcno
corporations to impose such an enor
mous tax upon the commerce of thu
country.
So far us respects the 05,000. , miles
of railroad constructed within the last
seventeen ycnw , its coat hns been
onormounjy augmented through the
operation of the tariff Let til sup
pose that this year 7f > 00 miles of sin
gle-track road is constructed , nnd
laid with steel rails at liO Ibs ,
Thin would represent , nt $00
per ton , an outnly of $17r > 00,000 for
roads built hi ono single year. This
arlificinl cnhnncemunt of the cost of
coiiHtniuliou enters into the capital nc-
ctiimt of the rnilromfo. When it is
coimidoicd that , as aboyo shown , the
rnilro.ids capitalize their property nt
double its cash eost , it will bo noon
that the enhnticomentH of construction ,
cost , nnd of charges for carrisge thus
produced by thu tariff become in effect
doubled , and the result in n stupendous
deus but den upon the nations ) indus-
TIM : finally corrected bulletin of
the population of tlm United States
has been issued by thu census bureau.
The table shown n total Deputation f f
50,155,783 , of which 20,518,81iO are
males , nnd 2 1,01)0 ) , ' . ni ; nro females.
This shows nnoxceEs of 871,857 males.
There are -1:1,475,810 : natives , nnd
0,0711,913 foreigners. There nroia , -
402,070 whites ; , 530 , 793 colored ;
100,405 Chinese ; 148 Japanese and
( ! ( i,407 Indians , including those
on the reservations. The increase in
thu number of Chinese since
1870 has been only 42,423.
The colored race shows a very
marked increase , indicating that
they nro multiplying much more
rapidly than the whites. In 1870
there were 4,886,387 negroes in the
United States. In 1880 , according to
the census , there were 0,580,703 , an
increase of 1,094,400 , or 31 per cent.
The colored increase in the last do-
cndo is four times in numbers and
3 1-3 in percentage what it was the
preceding dccadu. Indeed the colored
population has multiplied in the last
ten years more rapidly than it over
did , oven in slavery times. From 1850
to 1870 , the increase was from 3,038 ,
000 to 4 , 141,000-803,000 , or about
22 pur cent , whereas the increase
from 1870 to 1880 was 31 percent.
The native white increase in the same
period was from 28,000,000 to 30-
700,000-8,700,000 , or about 30 per
cent.
AN exciting struggle in congress is
probable over the efforts which wil
bo mndo to renew the charters of the
national banks. The first charters uc
quired under the enabling act will expire
piro as. early as January , 1882. Those
organized under the act of 180-1 nnd
numbering 1,080 , expire in 1884. The
plan proposed by the first comptrolle :
of the currency gives the stockholders
the privilege of extending their chartered
tored existence by amending the ar
tides of association , provided such
amendments are approved by the
omptroller. If this plan is not sane
tioued by congress the banks can
one o organize tinder the presi-nt law ,
A Ni'KCiii , dispatch to the St. Louii
Glnbo-Doraocrat says :
The detachment of soldiers recontl ,
Hentto the Otoo reservation , with in
structions to remove and keep out ul
squatters from the reserve , have ac
complished the work and will return
to Omahu before long. No resistance
was made by the settlers , many o
whom abandoned not only their claims ,
but the state tit once.
That was a summary proceeding , but
the puoploof Nebraska do not applaud
the driving away of settlers by mili
tary forco.
Ai.Tiiounn the Otoo reservation intuit
yet offered for sale and therefore still
remains the pr < perty of the Indians ,
no harm could have como from the
temporary squatting of parties on the
reservation , which is to be opened to
settlement next spring to purchaHors
