BISMAUCK'S opinion still carric moro weight in European politics tha that of all the other diplomatists com bined , and his decision that England' superior staka in the regulations c the Suez canal fully justifies her assui ing its safety hai had much to do will the late harmonious sitting of th conference.

TUB state department has called tl attention of the British governing ! to repeated complaints of America . citizens that their mails are tam'porc with the other niao of the wate The Dublin authorities ovidcntl think that O'Donnvan Ilossa , and h dynamite friends are using the ma bags to wage war against the Englie postal authorities , but this is i ; reason why the private oorrosponi enoo of American citizens should I subject to ofllcial surveillance.

It reminds us Artmnue Ward's touthorn politicia who wrote : "Tho undorsipncd mi have been a forger and a thief , b our ulster is not crots-eyed and does' wear a set of faho teeth. What ha the heel hounds of the Anjut to a ewer to our roplj ? " VALENTINE'S CHALLENGERS The insolence of the corporation or gans that are backing Valentino for i third term 2s simply unbounded. The ] challenge his opponents for positivi proof that Valentine is an ally of thi railway monopolies. They deny lha ho.h&s over betrayed the people one point to the fact that ho has sccuroc heavy appropriations for the ogricul tural bureau as proof that ho eaten to the farmers and does not play int < the hands of the monopolies. Valentino had bettor kill of ! hit fool friends , They are too inquisit ivo. They ask ui to ransack the records ords when every page is full of danv aging proofs , Ior the benefit of Val'a worahippori up in the Eikhorn vnlloy we will citi a chap tor to silence forever these wlu clamor for positive proof * . Ei\rly in January Senator Van Wycli introduced a bill "to open to scttlo < mont and entry certain lands in Nebraska braska withdrawn by executive ordoi for military purposes. " The lands ir question wcro within the limits of tin military reservation near the northorr boundary of the ntato. Quito a number bor of citizens had taken up homci within the limits of this reser vation and made improvement ! thereon ignorant of the fact th&l these lands had boon , withdrawn and reserved by the government. Scuatoi Van Wyck's bill was intended to af < ford these settlers protection , while at the name time it granted to the Fremont & Eikhorn Vnlley railroad the right of way across the rcaorvn tiou. The bill passed the ocnato ant was sent to the house. Under the rule * it should have boon referred tc the military committee , but Valentine caused it to bo referred to Indian committee mittoo , whore it would have remained buried had not his trickery boon aecidonlly discovered. Valentino at tempted to counteract the effort ol Senator Von Wyck by introducing o bill granting to tao railroad not only the right of way , but also the right to purchase 320 acres of the reservation at two dollars and a half an acre , and nuking no provision whatever for a restoration to Battlement of any portion of this extensive res erve , ' , thus ignoring the claimo of the settlsrs and the wuntf of the public. The house committee mended Valentino's bill reducing 10 number of acres which ' .ho rail- oad was privilodgod' ' to purchase on 10 reservation to forty acres. Thue mended the bill reached the senate , n the senate committee It was fur- icr amended , BO as to pruvido foi 10 restoration of a portion of the csorvation to the public domain , the ight of way for the railroad with mplo space for depots , switches , etc , ut any right to purchase ever fort ; ores was stricken out , while a seotior was added providing that these wlu lad settled upon the reservation prio o Dec. ti , ' 81 , in ignorance of it ; > eini ; withdrawn from sottlomon hould havoApriority of claim , if thoii laims were filed within three monthi ftor the lands became subject ti ntry. Hero was'a bill fair for all parties ho railroad was eocurad right of waj nd ample room for depots , and the men who had inado improvements ot lie roiorvod lands were not to loai what they had dune in croud faith 'his did not tuit Mr. Valentino , unc 10 insisted that all protection to these non should ba atriulcon out of tht -ill - , and that the railnud only sliouli njoy the benefit of running where il > leased , and securing all the publi aud ft wanted and where it wanted without regard to thd rights of others 3o the matters rested for eevera weeks. At the end of that time a cliaiiR came over our "brilliant" congress nan. lie no longer advocated tin right ot way of the Fremont , E khori Valley & Missouri railway. 11 in mas .ers , the Union Pacific managers , liai an eye in that direction. The ; wanted to go by way o the Oaluraus to a point ver ; near Fort Niobraru , and thenc to the Bluolr Hills , and they direotci that no further aid should bo given t < their rival , From that hour Valon : ino set his face against any and al bills of this class ai.d finally left th natter in the hands of another con jrcssmuii , who was properly pruned to reject every compromise or olIV nado by the conference committee [ laving strangled the bill Valentin : r\stonod homo to work u | ils third term boom. Manage Hall , of the Sioux City il Pacific , who has boon makini extensive preparations f jr oxtondini lis road this season , has sudlonl ; been compelled to call a halt. Valen .ino has blocked his way and unles 10 abandons the line aud makes i costly and lengthy detour round th reservation ho must give up the extension sion of the road. Thus the pee pi of the Eikhorn Qvalloy have beoi cheated out of an important oxtonsioi of the Sioux City & Pacific road dui iii the present year , because th owners of Valentino on Wall etroc have decreed through him that Nortli oni Nebraska mast bo annvxvd t their dominion or go without a rail real a few years longer. If y.l's challengers demand nn more proof from the records , the shall have it promptly , TIIK American Bar association liav been discussing measures forthorolii of the supreme court , and criticism : through their committees the twi plans presented at the last tension o congress. These plans , it will bo re rnomborcd , respectively contomplatoi a division of the court for the purpos of considering the different classes a cases presented for adjudication , an the creation of appellate courts wit ! final jurisdiction in cusess involvin property of lets than 810,000. Th Apposition to the last plan , whic' was that projosod in Senator Dim Davis' bill , which passed the sonat at the last session , was lei jy Mr. Evartfl , who contended tha .ho creation of appelato courts wa irohibitod by the constitutional prc vision creating ono supreme court. Oi , ho final vote , however , Mr Evart and his minority of the committc were outvoted , and Judge Davii measure endorsed , by the bar associn .ion as best fitted to accomplish th much needed relief of the suprom } cnch. IIow greatly that relief i iceded may bo judged when it i cnown that the court ia already thrc years behind In its docket and that th cases are. constantly accumulating Under the Davis bill all question which do not involve constitutional o treaty questions , or patent rights , o ] iioBtions involving a money value o $10,000 $ or over , will , bo adjudicate- - n the intermediate appellate courts The same plan has been tried in several oral states with the uniform result c relieving the tribunals of last resort ei a largo amount of business * and on abliog judges to devote their time t questions of pressing importance Congress will take up the question a ts next session , and in spite of th aotious opposition of the dcmocratl minority the Davis bill ought to socur a speedy passage.

THE CRY OF STOP THILF. The railroad organ of this clt ; which , in its alarm over the almoi certain defeat of its candidate fc congress in the Third district , ht forgotten that any are to be chosen i the others , nf tor its strikers have o ganized a double-header In Kno ; where its candidate was beaten in cot vontion , and while preparing , aa w are ndvisod , others for Boone an Bomo other counties , tn order to hid the conspiracy , begins to charge othoi is the guilty parties. We approhon no ono will bo deceived by the crj The district is decidedly og.unst Mi Valentino's return , and unless a fa expression is dofoattd by trickery ao bulldozing , ho has no show whatove The lecture on bolting read us , simply inspired by the dread that tli people are not in the humor and w ! not submit to any forced nominatioi through packed orbought convention While wo will not , like the Itcpullicai which declared in advanca of the coi vontion in 1878 that it would not sui port Mr. Crounso if nominated , SB wo will not support nominees honostl chosen , wo do say the day for buyin delegates at NO much per head , an holding up drunken ones in the it tercst of a giant monopoly is gem and nominees put forward by sue moans will not bo elected. If this t bolting , make the most of it. Tun next six weeks will be large ! taken up wi'h the political campaic ; which has fairly opened in Nobraski Both political parties have a grut opportunity to consult the public it torost by nominating honest , capabl and fearless men who will cotmnan popular confidence and respect , Nether other men can bo secure of an elei tion. There never has been a time i the history of the state when part lines have sot so loosely over th backs of Nebraska's voters. It is to bo a campaign of candidate with avowed principles and not alon of parties. The producers of th atato are determined no longt to play into the hands o the tools of the monopolies. The have made up their minds that thei own interests as individuals which a ter all are the interests of the stal collectively will best bo subserved b supporting only such candidates fc offices of representative trust as wi represent their sentiments in semi thing moro than in name. If bet political parties nominate none bi men whoso names will commend thei to the public approval , the state cat not suffer in any event. Other thiiif being equal republicans will prefer t support republicans , and party su cojs will bo secured at the name tin with the success of popular sontimon IT has now become a questic whether the sultan will depose Ara Bey or whether Arabi Bey will dopoi the sultan. A meeting of the TJlema or religious notables of theMohamm d ui faith lias been called by the an rebel at Cairo , with the request tin the sultan bo deposed from the pos tion as caliph , or head of the churcl itud that the Bheiiff of Mtcca 1 selected in hlo place. This action , confirmed , can hardly help from roi dering still more critical the posiiic of the potto. It will necuBsituto i once active measures agaiust Arabi , i else a complete surrender of his pr rogntives ua the legitimate succeeson the prophet and commander of tl faithful throughout the Mohammedn world by the sultan. GOVERNOR ST. JOHN'S mmiinatic in Kaunas may provo of benefit in s curing a thorough trial of prohibitioi Ic will.toon be seen whether sue legislation which never has been oi forced elsewhere can bo enforced : Kaunas. Hud a sovotnor opposed a prohibitory policy been placed the executive chair , Kansas prohit tionistu would certainly huvo , attri utud 'ho failure of the law to a hal hearted enforcement If it fails noi no auoh excuse can bo made. Moa time Nebraska with her high liccn and local option luw can safely awn the outcome of the Kansas nnd lav t xporiment. THE Utah cuininiaeioiij which < v ; created by the last congress with tl double object of tarnishing oinplo mont for it few ox-senators who wo out of a job and of satisfying the po ular clamor for the regulation of tl Mormons , is about to start fcr SB Lake to enter upon their labors. Ju what the Utah commission is cxpecti to accomplish no ono seems to kna very definitely. They are to super ! tend the reorganization of the olc toral machinery of the territory , wil a view to disfranchising all practic polygamists and to draw f 5,000 a yei salary with great regularity. Thi will undoubtedly throw their who soul in the latter part of the perfon anco , PETEK SoitWEhCK is not unprovii ed for after all. His land office rocoi barred him out of the internal rovei us service , and the bogus census swi : die destroyed Ins chances forever get any patronage in his own nain So that "good provider" Val fixed t the Fort Peck tradorship fora iioth man , and Peter will divide the spoil THE only answer that Valentin * clerk makes to the charge that I muter secured a fraudulent p rm < in the Selah case is that the pensioi was secured for a soldier's widow. . But Mrs. Selah was not a ooldior'i widow. Fraud on behalf of a sol dicr's widow is not ono whit less frauc than if committed on behalf of a losi worthy or deserving person. In this case a poor excuse is worse tnan none , But how about the pension of Val'a brother ? Independent Anti-Monopoly Stnti Convention. August Oth , 18S2.
