The Stats Anti-Monopoly league will moot at Hastings , September 22 1882 , in connection with the StaU Farmers' alliance , for the purpose ol putting before the voters of the atat < of Nebraska an independent stat < anti-monopoly ticket.

Oun city council is bad enough tc make Angolls weep. WHAT will the political harvest beiGe Go and ask the farmers. MAILSHAL ANOELL refuses to stop -down until ho is bounced. VAL is walking a way from his com petitors , but hia walk is decidedly to the rear. SINGH the fall of Lucifer , you never hoard of an Angoll that -was put on trial for failing to do his duty. THE UK are signs that house rents "will decline in Omaha. There is a great deal of room for improvement. OUK Val makes hay while the sun ahincs. Ho was bound to got his pensioned brother into the postal ser vice biforo the Fremont convention lays him on the shelf. THERE are thirty counties in the Third district and by the time Val'o organs got in returns from o majority of thu conventions wo shall hoar fewer ahouta about the battle being over. IT is too late in the day for Ne braska voters to endorse notorious tools of the corporations when trice and experienced public aorvanta are willing to represent the wishes of the people. FROM every section of the state comes the news that corn never look ed bettor. This is good news for Ne braska hogs and cattle , in which corn will bring the best returns , when sent to market. ho was to go in by acclama tion , next ho had a walkaway by a largo majority , now his friends are beginning to fool very uneasy , so un easy that they are whistling to keep their coarauo up. SENATOR HOAU'B constituents have "boon calling him to account for his vote in favor of the rivnr and harbor iniquity , 'which appropriated nearly nine millions of the public money for improving worthless eastern crooks , and the senator whoso votes have boon uniformly cast for every piece of legislation which picked the pockets of the people for private and local in terests has felt forced to appear in print in a long winded apology for hia congressional career. Mr. Hoar's ex cuse is that the government can afford to be generous. No government o\n afford to bo generous at the expense of being just and the grossest of all injustices is that which maintains an exorbitant popular taxation to 11 I ) foster jobbery and extravagance. PKAHMAN , the political barnnclo and blatherskite ia out with a letter in which he assures readers of the llc- liulliciiH that Senators Saundora and Van Wyck favor Valontlno'a ro-oloo- tion. Pearman is the nun who as cleric of the judiciary committee of the senate at the last cession of the legislature received pay for 48 days at t $3 per day or gill , while Senators "Van Wyck and Hayden of the same county icceived pay for only -10 days at 83 per day , or $120 , Hence the office of Pearman w&a just exactly worth $44 more than that of senator. Of course J. W. Pearman , all the way from Otoo , also received more pay than any member of the house , from that county. Why J. W , Pearman received pay for more than forty days , is a matter worthy of some inquiry , inasmuch that ho was not appointed on the first day of the session , nor did he have any work to do after tlie legislature adjourned. If Pearman lias ever spoken the truth by accident LU friends have yet to find out this /act ; and it ia safe to say hia latest eft fusion is in the came line with hia Joraer attempts. EQUALIZING THE BDRDENU The pcoplo of Nebraska in commoi with the pcoplo of the entire wcs have for years berne unequal and op prcsasivo burdens in thoehapoof slat and local taxes. While every fool o real estate and every article of vain owned by the pcoplo is subject to as acssmont and taxation , the giant cor pnrationa that own the railroads hav boon largely exempt from taxes. Thor are millions of acres of railroad land in Kansas , Nebraska , California , am the Pacific coast otntcs owned by th Pacific railroads , which have novo bocn taxed. Under the pncifio railroad act th landsdonated , to the railroads by th government were to revert to the pec plo if thty wcro not sold within flv yoara after the roads wc.'o completed Cut when the five years wore up Lh roadi managed to hold on to thoi lands , and they still hold many mil lions of acres of tho. moat voluabl lands , and evade their taxes by refue ing to take out patents thorofor. A far back aa 1873 Judge Crounso , thoi a member of congress from Nebraska aocurod the passage of a bill b ; the house to compel the Pa clQo railroads bo take out thoi land patents and require than to pay taxes. This bill after passin ; the house was throttled in the senate Two years later Judge Crounso push cd the same bill through the housi for the second time , and again it woi pigeon holed through the corporation senators. The late Kansas ropublicai convention hoa spoken on this outrage in no uncertain sound by inserting the following planks in their plat form. Itcsolnd , That wo are in favor ol the strict and immediate enforcement of all laws now upon the atatuio booko for the regulation of railways Resolved , 'J'hut wo ask of the repub lican majority ij the congress of the United Utatcs to paip sncli laws as will compel the railways of this amto to take patonta for the lands granted thorn tram the public domain , to the end that all property in this state shall lay itn just proportion of the taxes eviod to support the government. But all the resolutions and all the petitions for equalizing the public burdens will remain a dead letter as long as Nebraska and Kansas continue to iiond railroad attorneys and cappers of the Valentino brood to congress. BENJAMIN H. HILL. Senator Benjamin II. Rill died yes terday morning at his homo in Atlan ta , Georgia , after n long and painful illness of many months' duration , Ho was born in Jasper county , Georgia , September 14,1821) , and received a classical education , graduating at the University of .Georgia in 1844 with the highest honors of his class. Like most of iho younger generation of southerners aspiring to political hon ors ho studied law and upon his ad mission to the bar in 1815 ho began the practice of law at La Grange , in his native state. Mr. Hill first entered political lifu in 1851 , when ho was elected a member of the state house of representatives. In 1805 ho ran for O'ngross as the American candidate , being defeated' by N. N. Warner , democrat , and in 1857 ho again suf fered defeat on the name ticket for governor , receiving 40,889 votes against 57,081 for J. E. Bacon , dem ocrat. Mr. Hill , in 1850 , was a pres idential elector on the Fillmore and Donel&on ticket , and on the Bell and Everett ticket in 18(50. ( Ho filled a term of service as state senator from 1859 to 18GO , and was a delegate to the secession convention in 1801. Up to the time secession was irrevocably resolved on Mr. Hill was a strong advocate of the union and fought earnestly against any dis ruption of the states. When the die was cast ho throw his fortune with those of his state. Ho was n dele gate from Georgia to the confederate provisional congress , and was sub sequently a aonator to the confederate congress. At the close of the war Mr. Hill was arrested and confined with a number of other political prisoners In Ft. Lafoyotto. For several years after the close of the rebellion Mr. Hill took no active part in politics , but at the close of the reconstruction period he stood for an oluctlon to congros and became a member of the Forty-fourth house of representatives Hero ho soon at tained distinction as an able debater ind"a brilliant speaker , especially nrhoro questions impeaching the cause ] f the south wore brought under dis suasion. While ho failed to take rank with the most distinguished of the old louthorn congressmen , his tongue was n'er ready to moot an antagonist. Ilia national reputation was acquired n the contest in 1875 with James G , Dlaiuo , in which the Maiuo champion received his distinction as the plumed ( night , and vanquished in a running lubato of two days his southern oppo lent. During the stormy session , of the Forty-fifth congress Mr. Hill did good lorvice by his conservative couruo on ; ho electoral fight. He resigned his icat in March 1877 , upon his election is United States senator , which office ) { representative trust ho hold at the iuio of his death. Senator Hill was i man of culture , refinement and largo iractical experience. With the ox- icp'tlon of Alexander H. Stephens ho ran , generally placed at the head of ho southern congressional delegations , hd more than any one man was con- idered uf the special cliampion of southern interests. A little loss thai two years ago a cancerous affection o the mouth first made its appearance and for six months hia death has enl ; boon a matter of time. The groa sympathy which his affliction ha created for the sufferer throughout th country will undoubtedly manitcs itself more strongly now that doatl has removed him from the scone of hi public labors , ATTEND THE WUMARIES. TUB BEE again urtjes every voter t < spare no effort to attend the party primaries marios which are to elect delegates ti the various county conventions. Tin hardest work in the cam ) aign must b done in the caucus and primary meet ings. Conventions in n largo majority of instances only register the decree of these preliminary political gather ings. Every farmer who has at hcai the interests of the producers of thi state , and every merchant nnd projre sional roan who desires to see Nebroski taken out of the hands of corporation and ihcir tools should make it i point to [ cast hia vote at thi precinct and ward primary fo honest and reputable delegates win will roprcsont'tho popular sentiment ) In the conventions. There 13 nc doubt of the strong fooling throughout the state in favor of an out and out anti-monopoly campaign within the party lines if possible but outside ol existing political organizations if nc other course will accomplish the ob ject. Wo bcliovo that the republican party can regenerate itself if its morn- bora'wlll take that active interest in the matter which the public welfare demand. The corporations are work ing , through their local attorneys , to control every convention and to wrest the government of this state Vom the lands of the people for their own venal purposes. Their agents are concocinc plans for the capture of the primaries in every precinct , where the unwillingness or neglect of the anti-monopoly voters to take part in the preliminary campaign gives any prospect of success. Their plans can bo overthrown if the republicans , who refuse to sell themselves to the rail- rjac'i , will combine to send men to the conventions who cannot bo bought by promises or bribed by favors to do the bidding of the cor porations. Let there bo a fu 1 attendance at the primaries. An hour taken from business cannot in any other way bring more profitable returns. A hulf n day's absence from the farm will pay a hundred times over in securing a good government and such representation of the people aa will guarantee to farmers the re sults of their labor and voice their wishes in the nation'a capital. The primaries arc the fountain head of our political oystom and can only bo kept pure by the general and. generous co operation of the people. JOHN B. Fir-en , whoso peripatetic performances are frequently chronicled in the papers , is quoted by the Ohi cage Tribune as an example of the recklessness of professional prohibi tion orators and ot the little confi dence to bo placed in their statements. It seems that Finch has boon orating at Bloomingtun , 111. , and grossly mis representing a number of Illinois op ponents in hia campaign. "Mr. Finch , " says the Tribune , "a demo cratic prohibitionist from Nebraska , said ho had boon told by the Rev. Dr. Rood , of Springfield , that Lieut. Uov. Hamilton had stated that ho would rather see a grog-shop in every house in Illinois than have the republican party defeated. This was denied by the lieutenant governor , and the Rev. Dr. Rued , in a brief dispatch , stated that there was n mistake in the namoi Speaker Thomas being the person re ferred to. Gen. Thomas in turn de nied the truth of the story , and now ' the Rev. Dr. Rood , in'a letter to a Springfield paper , says that ho had 'hoard it reported' that Speaker Thomas had made such an assertion , but that Gen. Thomas never had any such convocation with him. Nobody over believed that either the lieuten ant governor or thja speaker of the houeo would make such a ridiculous statement , but it is to bo hoped that it will servo us a warning to all per. eons to bo guarded in their language when talking to Mr. Finch , of N o- bnwka , who seoma to bo alllicted with a very incorrect memory whore prom inent republicans are concerned. " THE l'o l'Dii > atth thinka that "of- tor women have been added to the voting population of Kansas the awful curse of tobacco will ba wiped out nnd a law will bo passed requiring all male inhabitanta to marry at the ago of t\vontyono op jump the atato. We adviao the male inhabitants of Kansas Lo luok to their liberties. ONE ot the problems of western 'armors is what to do with their itraw. A report just published by .ho British government on the QUCS- ; ion of straw lumber says that this is iiiquostion'ably adapted for joiner vork and can bo sold at one-half the moo of black walnut. The supply of hia material made by pressing straw n moulds is practically inexhaustible , i ton of straw will make 1,000 feet of > oards. This opens a largo field for mtorpriflo and experiment in the rest. ' POWER AND PRESTIGE- Valentine and his tinkers have al along sought to create the imprcssioi that the 'wholo federal patronage o this state ia at their disposal. The ; are profuse with promises of clerk ships , land offices , post tradorahip and postofiiccs , as the reward for po litical services. They hold a olul over every officer's head by threaten ing him with removal if ho dares ti oppose Valentino for a third term Such tactics have , in some instances been successful. The idea prevails it some quarters that Valentino has ab solute control of all the patronage a the disposal of the president. Al these people are laboring uudoi a deluaian , Valentino controls n < more federal patronage than tin average congressman except , perhaps the little postoflices scattered al through the state , which will hence forth apportioned to the represents tivoa of each district. The editor of Tit BEE speaks frorr personal knowledge received diroctlj from President Arthur himself. Foi instance , Valentino asked the presi' dent to reappoint his friend Sweet , formerly editor of the West Point .Republican , to the land office in Washington territory , which ho occupied - pied during the last four years. The president absolutely refused to do so , but .asked the Nebraska delegation to name a successor. Valentine insisted on this man Sweet , but the president overruled him and appoint ed & man from another state. When Hon. Bruno-Tzichuck was urged by the Nebraska senators for the Vera Cruz consulship , Valentino entered a protest with the president against Mr. Tzschuck's appointment. Ho said to the president that ho would regard Ilia appointment as a personal affront , but the president turned a deaf ear to Valentino , and , hod Tzschuck ap pointed because , aa ho said to the writer , his record was good and ho did not propose to allow Valentino to dictate. When Val sought to impose Peter Schwonok , ho was snubbed by Gen. [ laum , and when ho sought to pre vent a change in postofliccs at Crete and elsewhere , the postmaster general wid no attention to him. It is true Val secured the appointment of Mr. i'arrish to the U. P. directorship , but .he position ia not presidential. It is lold only from onoyear to another , and strictly within the gift of the aecro- ary of the interior. Secretary Teller made the appointment on Valentino's ocommendation , mainly because the wo senators did not aureo about tlm andidates. When Nebraska has her full rop're- ontation in congress Valentino would ploy but a very inferior part as a die- ) onsor of patronage. But ho ia not doatinod to get there , and the post masters and other oflico-holdcra can safely bravo his displeasure. Those who expect office at the hands of the > rcsidont through Valentino are liable o a sad disappointment. In the first > lace , the president is not disposed to over-ride the senators in appoint ing anybody they object to , and in the next place , the senators can , always defeat any appointment from their own state that requires confirmation when they consider it ofifdnsivo and objectionable. The Association of American Bank- era opened its session yesterday at Saratoga with the largest attendance n the history of the organization. The rapid rotunding of the national debt and the consequent calling in of the government bonds which have 3oen used as the basis of bank cirou- ation makes it important that plans io speedily devised to meet the com ing changes in our banking system , which must result when the payment of the debt removes the present foun dation of our national bank currency. Two plans are being discussed as a ba sis for protecting holders of notes is sued by the banks. The first proposes ho purchase of sound state nnd mu nicipal bondi to take the place of hose surrendered to the nation al government. The other con- omplatos ta banking Byctom whose notes shall bo secured by the credit of stockholders , and receivable > y all banks alike in case of auspou- ion. The objection io the second j'.an , and an objection which it will bo difficult to meet , is that individual so- urity , as a basis for circulation , is ikoly to bo weakest in a time of train , instead of strongest. The po uliar advantage of any system with ound bonds as a security for circuit [ on is that , when a crash cornea , bonds of the beat quality do not fall us the credit of individuals and general securities. In fact , from the use of such bonds in raising money , they often appreciate slightly in value in a crisis because of the public confi donee in their soundness. It is of the vary highest importance that holders jf our national bank currency shall bo \caured of its value through every contingency. Like every note of liaud , it rests upon credit , and it ) ught to bo hung on a nail which will lot loosen when a financial earthquake ih&kea the foundations of public con- Idonco.

HURT COUNTY. A Solid Delegation for OrounBO to the Fremont Convention. Correspondence ol Tin BBB. TKKAMAH , Neb. , August 1G. There seems to bo a disposition on the part of Judge Valentino's friends to mis represent the outcome of the contest in Burt county. I notice a statcmeu.t in The Republican of your city that Burt county has elected four Crouneo delegates and four for Valentino. This ia utterly false. A desperate ef fort was miio by Mr. Painsh to cap ture Burt county for Valentino , but. when the convention mut there wore nfty-four Crounao men to twenty-ouu forj Valentino. Parrish found himself powerless , but some of his personal fnonds ask ed the delegates to honor him with a place on thu delegation to harmonize the party , on the condition that Par rish would go with the majority of the delegation. Mr. Purr is li has declared publicly that he would say to Valentino tine ho had done his level best to get him the delegation and if that was not satisfactory ho was ready to lot Valentine dispose of his commission as government director of the U. P. road to some other man. J. W. International Farming1. Ololo Dcmociat , The latest wrinkle of the agricul tural bureau is the establishment of a London branch cilice. Of course great things are expected of it , though nobody seems to know why. London is a big place for farming. A large part ot our agricultural produce , grain und flour , and provisions and cotton , if sold abroad. Very well. If com missioner Loring's agents could pre dict six months or a year ahead the size * of the next European or east ern crops , could tell in advance when prices werp to bo high and wh'on low , or could give pointers about selling to the American farmer , there would bo some reason in the new departure. Just theeo things they will not be able to do. Planting und tilling and harvesting will continue ta go on in hope of , but with no assurance of an nual deficits abroad. The agents will tell how things are ; they cannot tell how they will be. But long before their slow methods will have shown producers in this country that it ia tlmo to sell , the fact will have been learned through the swift and un erring processes of commerce. Dr. Loriug may bo enabled to publish a lot of matter suitable for a year-old almanac , and his correspondents' "news" will bo nseful to speculators , perhaps it will not benefit agriculture. To this statement , however , there may bo one exception. Dispatches from government representatives abroad will naturally magnify the op portunities for producers hero to do u good thing for themselves. The inev itable tendency of the reports will bo to create the impression that Ameri can crops are euro to have a boom , If there is a scarcity in Europe , ito extent tent , severity and probable Duration will bo surely magnified ; if there is abundance it will bo touched on lightly , in order not to breai the American market. The con sequence of this jugglery the most natural thing in the world for the fac totums of agriculture to engage in will bo the establishment periodically , for a few days at a time , of a higher range of prices than the foreign mar ket will warrant. The tendency will be to give the prices every now and then a speculative nso through which sellers may bo gainers , but only at the expense of their neighbors in the do Diestio market. These movements will rather discourage than encourage purchases on foreign account , and the general result will hardly bo good. Dr Lorlng seeks to collect such "special statistics as may bo doomed of value in the regular and apecial trork of the division of statistics of the agriculture department. " Now , the do'ctor knows very well that the itaistics collected and published by ID'B bureau are precious humbugs They are serious , suggestive to those irhu know how to use them , but value : o the great national industry they iavo done.
