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braska withdrawn by executive ordoi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these lands had boon , withdrawn and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

Valley & Missouri railway. 11 in mas

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

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

TIIK American Bar association liav

the creation of appellate courts wit !

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.

_ It will bo consoling to the prohibi
tionists that the price of hops has ad
vanced from 20 cents in April last to
55 cents retail now , with the prospect
of reaching 75 cents before another
crop conies in. The supply is pretty
much exhausted , and there are no old
Blocks amounting to anything the
world over. The crop in England la
n total failure , and in Germany will bo
below the overage. The only country
on the qlobe where the crop will exceed -
coed last year's is California , llops
have been h'tjhor thun now in times
past. In 1870 German wan sold as
high as $1.f)0 ) , and possibly they mny
roach thut fituro ; again , considering the
short supply and partial failure. This
may compel the browora to advance
the price of beer , and a higher price
moans a reduced cmmitnption.

Blaino's South American policy im
proves in the light of investigation.
His idea that the South American re
publics should aottlo their differences
without Roinj ; to war was certainly a
gor-id one. A peace congress tnay not
bo practicable just now. But friendly
arbitration is only another name for
it , and many of these South American
republics would gain immensely by re
ferring their differences to come
friendly power.
