Numerous bills are now pending i congress authorizing the conatnictio of railroad and wagon bridges acroi the great western rivers. Many < these projected bridges may never r built while others will doubtlcts I erected to accomodato the growing di mands of commerce , It ia manifest ) the duty of congress to enact son ; general law prescribing thocondilior under which bridges shall bo bui across the navigable rivers of th west. Such an act would do nwa with all special legislation and aiTor to all localities nnd all parties cqur privileges and facilities for traffic At the same time it is also th duty of congrcts to prevent th obstruction of the ravigablo river by bridges that do not afford propo facilities for ' .ho passngo of boats , With n view of aiding congress i practical legislation on thu impor tant subject the St. Louia merchant exchange have had a bill prepared b ; a committee of experienced river en gincora , whioh waa recommended t congress at a meeting hold by th merchants of St. Louis las w jck. This proposed bill a drafted is entitled "an act t < authorize the construction of bridge ; across the Missouri river between it mouth and the mouth of the Dakott and James river , and across thi Mississippi river between the port o St. Paul , in the state of 'Minnesota and the port of Natchez , in the atati Mississippi , and across the Illinoii river between ita mouth and Peoria in the state of Illinois , and to pro scribe the character , location and di monsiona of the same. The proposed bill is very length ; and wo can only point to the principa features that apply to the bridging ol the section of country in whioh we ire looted or with which wo have : ommorcal ! relations. The bill pro- icribcs in detail the conditions under vhicli all bridges crossing the great vestern rivers shall bo erected and naintaincd. It provides that all low iridpoa ever the Missouri and Missis sippi rivers authorized by this net bo < o located that n good channel an bo kept and maintained or the passage of boats it all navigable stages of water , and hat the channel shall bo made easily iccossiblo by boats at all such stages , .lid the 'draw or pivot spans shall bo ocatod over the channel in such a nannor that ono or both of the open- ngs can bo conveniently and safely cached by boats at all navigable tagos of Water ; and that ono opening t least of a draw or pivot span shall o ever the beat and most convrnicnt hannel of the river , for all classes of Ivor trafllc , at any stage of water. That in case the approaches to raw-span opening , channoUspansor aft passages in bridais authorized by tiia act are found to bj dangerous or ifiioult of access by any important lass of river t radio , the secretary of ar may , upon the recommondati n f a board of engineers , appointed as eroinaftor prescribed in this act , or- er the construction of such sheer oems as will obviate the difficulty. That any person , company or cor- oration authorized to construct a ridtro ever the Missouri , Mississippi Illinois rivers shall , before com oncing work , give notice for two ooks of such intention by publica on in papers1 having a wide circula on in the cities of St. Louis , St 3soph , Kansas City and Omaha , con irning bridges to bo built ever thi [ iaaouri river ; and in news ipors published and having ido circulation in the cities St. Louis , Quinoy , Pcorin , lllionis ookuk , Davenport and Dubuque iwa , and St. Paul , Minnesota , for idgos over the Misaissippi river IOYO St. Louia or Illinois rivor.

GROW DO GTS TR1AI * The trial of Crow Dog for the mui dor of Spotted Tail is now in proprci at Deadwood , and much interest i naturally manifested in the rcsull Knotted Tail , chief of thoBtulo Siotn was murdered at Rosebud Agency o the 5th of August , 1881 , and the goi ; oral belief among people on the rosoi vntlon is that ho was the victim of murderous conspiracy. A largo number of Indians hav boon cited to Deadwood as witnesac to establish the claim of the dofonc that Crow Dot ; acted on the first la\ of nature , eelf-prosorvatlon. Th prosecution on the other hand is road , to provo that the shooting of Spottci Tail waa a cold-blooded murder as part of a conpiricy led by Crow DOJ to make Black Crow chief of th Hrulo Sioux. There was also th hint of a scandal in connection wit ] the crime , the exact nature of whicl ras never disclosed. The assassins tion was cowardly , Crow Dog gottin ] the drop on his chief and firing with out warning. The shot was a dondl ; ono , and Spotted Tail did no live Ion ) enough to shod any light on the mys tery. The assassination caused grea excitement at the time , and but fo the prompt arrest of Crow Dog as thi murderer and Black Crow as an accessory cossory before < ho fact the conspiracy which had led to the murder migh have led to the inauguration of a reigi of terror nniong the Brulcs am trouble at the ngcncy. By thia dociaivo action the tendency of the Indians to centralize power ir the person of a chief who was bittorlj opposed to the policy of the govern ment to civilize the Sioux , was frus trated. Thu crisis at the ngcncv passed with the prompt arrest and im prisonment of the murderous con- ipiratora. Spotted Tail was hated by the do ligning men of the tribe for Iris 'riondly relations with the whites , ind his death was deeply deplored at ho agency and throughout that ace ion , which , together with the latural prejudice against the cowardly ict 'of nsaiiBhiiitttion accounts in n noasuro for the. interest manifested in ho trial of iiia murdorrr. WIIEM Omaha was dependent nn- irely for fire protection on the water lupply from oystcrns and wells , there was some excuse for exact ing high in- mranca rates. But now that we mvo an ample and constant supply rom our water worta , insurance rut a n Omaha should not bo highr * than hey are in. any other western city , n fact , they should not bo as high .a they are in most citict , because ur streets are very wide and the ris rom destructive fires comparative ! mall. Wo remember very distinct ! hat our local insurance agents prom icd a great reduction in fire rate ust as BOOH as our water works woul ( 10 completed. Although the wato rorks have , as yet , net keen officially ocoptod , they hove been in goo ( rorking operation since November ut not a word has been hoard from ho insurance agents. LN IMPROPEH USE OF THE ARMY. IcreUnd Lttdor , During the famous railroad strike f 1877 the federal government was Mod upon to send troops to Poim plvania and West Virginia. The imo thing has just boon done in No raska upon the requisition of Govor or Nance. It is befitting that law ud order should bo ac all times main lined , and in all parts of the county , ut the growing practice of calling foi idural troops to repress local disturb- ucoB , or overawe a fuw people dis- OBod to bo riotous , in exceedingly uostionublo. The stutes have their vm militia and possess the necessary louna of defending themselves except i case of an overwhelming rebellion. Vo can readily conceive that cisca tn arise , like that of the Dorr 'bullion in Rhode Island , when the ; doral government may property in- ufuro to save the legitimate author- ! os from overthrow , but the use of idoral troops in u state when the teal authorities are competent to Dal with the cause of trouble can tarcely bo justified. It was an ao- aowledgment of weakness on the trt of Pennsylvania and West Vir inia , aa it is now on the part of 'vbraaka , to call for federal troopa , obraska has a militia force of her irn auffioiently strong to dial with te Omaha strikers , and thu governor lould have relied uwn this f < rca to reserve the peace. During th ining troubles in this state , Gover- > r Foster nev r thought of callingfor dorml aid. He relied upon civil ithoriticB and the state militia to presa all aggressiveness , and theme mo course should ba punued by her Btatos. This matter of appeal- g to the federal government for oops whenever a littfa local disturb- ice occurs ought to bo cheeked. If , waver , it is loft to grow into a kbit , it will become necessary by and to enlarge the regular army to thu tent of a hundred thousand or are , Let the states bo made to de > nd on their own militia , and lot the fulur army be confined to its leghi- itu duties. This course of prosed- o is in keeping with the spirit of our institutions , and will bo general ! approved by the people. OCCIDENTAL , JOTTINGS. CALIFORNIA.
