DISAFrECXION IN THE RANKS
Mr. Blaine has opened the Mnino
campaign by ono of these nggrossivo
and powerful political speeches for
which ho ia BO noted. The liberal
oxtractn published in TUB DP.K'S
special dispatches give a com
prehensive idea of its char
acter. It bases this appeal for popu
lar support for the republican party
on it's record and dofiea his opponents
to point to a single measure calcu
lated to meet the national need which
during the past twenty-one years han
been introduced into the body of our
statutes by the democracy. With the
cry for a now party , which ia being
hoard more and moro frequent
ly nowadayn , Mr. Blaine has
plainly no sympathy. Ho be
lieves existing party organizations
supposed to voice the pooplo'a needs ,
and ia convinced that the few camp
followers which have traveled in the
wake of the majority , and brought
moro or loss discredit upon the repub
lican party , have not to any great de
gree Impaired its usefulness or injured
its efficiency aa an organization. Mr.
Blaino'a views , it must not bo forgot
ten , are these of a strong partisan ,
and partisanship ia always moro or
loss one-aided and contracted in its
vision. The disaffection existing in
both political parties ia Creator , wo
imagine , than party leaders are pre
pared to admit. Thnro ia a ques
tioning among a class of people
plo who , while not very con
spicuous on the political stage , alill
take a warm and intelligent interest in
public affairs , whether either of the
existing party organizatitina are not
unfitted to grapple with the great
problems of the day. Aa stated by a
recent correspondent , these problems
are "an honest and therefore cconom-
cal expenditure of the public moneys ,
an upright , business-like reform of the
civil service , a wiser readjustment of
taxation and a moro practical provision
'or the increase of international trade
and maritime commerce. " . It is a feei
ng that the cowardice of party load
ers and their followers in congress
alone prevents cither the republican
and democratic parties from grappling
with these problems , which is largely
responsible for the nonlitnont demand-
ng a now party.
That demand is not likely to cul
minate in general and concerted ao-
ion for some yoara to como. Experi
ence proves that political parties ou a
; roat scale cannot bo made to ordor.
Ihoy spring into being either in con-
acquonco of some striking occurrence
hat stirs up the popular mind as the
now republican party came into existence -
once in consequence of the repeal of
, ho Missouri compromise. Or they
are the slow evolution from the con-
uaion caused by the disontcgration of
old organizations which no longer
moot the popular requirement. ) There
are signs .that the present is a
ransition period which will either
result in radical reforms m existing
3arty methods o'r in the formation at
Homo future day , not far distant , of a
party , brave enough and strong
enough , because of their bravery , to
grapple with the isauc-a which are
daily becoming moro clearly defined
to the pooplo. There are thousawlo
of votora in the ranks of parties
whoso allegiance hanga on H very
alendor thread , but who do not deem
it best to sever the connection be
cause of their hope of parly reforma
tion within the party linos.
And there are other thousands
who are hold within the
ranks because of their fooling that
any movement at the present time
would bo premature and predestined
to failure. The time is upon the loa
ders of both the political parties when
they will do well to consider what
measures must bo taken to preserve
their organization. Confidence in po
litical measures and party management
once lose is difficult to regain. The
idea that the reins of government
have fallen into the hands of a few
ambitious aud not too scrupulous rep
resentatives of the people , is making
a headway which evidcnca itself In
the independent movement through
out the country. Isolated cases
of revolt in the ntatoa ugainst
Bossism ii spreading and may soon
become a chain bngenough and strong
enough to bend together a national
movement. The issues of antimonopoly
opoly and revenue reduction are call
ing together thousands from the ranks
of the republicans und democracy.
Each and all of those movements rep
resent an element which demands
party reform on the alternative of re
volt from the nominations of party
loaders. Of ono thing wo may bo
certain for all political history proves
it when parties no longer voice the
wishes of the majority they are not
long in taking their places among min
ority organizations or else in ceasing
altogether to exist ,
THE Z.OJSS BY STRIKES.
Of the three great strikes inaugu
rated lost spring , each of which had
strong popular support und sympathy ,
none have proved successful. The
freight handlers' strike failed because
the corporations employing the strik
ers took advantage of thn incoming
utroara of immigrants to fill their
places with men out of employment
and who know nothing and cared
nothing for the griovauccn of the
laborers. The great Oohocs strike
and the strike of the iron workers
were unsuccessful bccauso the condi
tion of the market permitted the mill
owners to shut down production and
live on their accumulated capital , while
the operators were starved into
submission. The struggle in each
CMC was a long and a bitter ono , but
it waa vain , because the odda were too
heavy at the very outset against the
striking workingmen for any sub
stantial hope of success.
Conservative estimates place the
loss during the past year to the workingmen
ingmon in this country , crowing out
ot strikes , at 80,000,000. This loss
has fallen upon all who share with
laborers and mechanics the fruits of
their toll. It has been felt in every
line of business which gains a portion
of iU support from the daily earnings
of our wage workers. Production stim
ulates production , and fho lack of tha
atimulas which six millions of dollars
naturally brings has been seriously
evidenced in every section of the
country whcro labor troubles have
boon in progress. The struggle of
labor within the past year has gained
moro sympathy than over before in
our history. The press has very gen
erally boon on its aido. The theory
that workingmen have no right to
contiauo to control wages has boon
exploded in fifty of our loading jour
nals , It haa boon well argued that to
say that a workingman is bound to ac
cept whatever may bo offered him or
atop aside if someone else is willing to
take it , is equivalent to saying that
lie must surrender himself completely
to the solfiahnoaa of capital and per
mit the standard of wagca to bo de
termined by the most triftlosa and in
different in the ranV.s of .labor.
Ono great result scorns to bo evolv
ing itself out of these costly strug
gles of the workingmen to elevate
their position by their own efforts ,
and that ia a growing tendency
towards an arbitration of disputes be
tween employers aud employe. This
plan has always been advocated by
THE BEE whenever possible. All
Treat advances have boon the results
of compromise , and the qroateat ad
vance in securing happier relations be
tween capital and labor in England
and the continent has como from a
submission ot mattnra under dispute
to boards of arbitration , where de
cision has generally been accepted by
30th the contending parties. No ono
3oliovca tint this will over prove a
complete solution of a great problem.
But it will go far towards preventing
; ho long and bitter conflicts , which , in
; ho end generally result in serious
.ccuniary losa to the ono side and
; reat inconvenience * to the other.
THE O&D DODQE.
It ia an old dodge of the railroad
oolitic il managers to divert attention
rom the call for anti-monopoly legia-
ation by forcing upon party leadoia
other and losa important issues No
sooner haa the demand como from the
people for lawa regulating railroads
than the monopolies suddenly take a
burning interest in prohibition , or
jo into wild hysterics over the injus
tice done to women in refusing them
the nuflrago. By this trick they have
often boon nuccessful in raising bogus
iuauoa , which subordinate nn
overpowering public sentiment ,
and undue the cover of the
smoke raised by their action , in es
caping untouched by unfriendly legis
lation.
This plan is now being put in suc
cessful operation in California by the
Central Pacific managers , who have
beguiled several republican county
conventions into urging the state con
vention to insert a plank in the plat
form in favor of "Sunday as a day for
rest and recreation. " The San Fran
cisco Chruniclc assorts that "Not only
has this boon accomplished , but what
is moro to the purpose of the men
who put up the job , the Sunday it-
sue haa become to all appoarancoa the
paramount ono. The discussion of the
extortions and discriminations of the
railroad haa been almost entirely aban
doned by the interior press , and whole
columns are now devoted to the Sun
day it sue. Republican and demo
cratic politicians , are now in
structed to swing themselves on "tho
Sunday business , " and by their clamor
drown the anti-monopoly cry. "
The Chronicle pointa out that if the
republicans wish to win in the coming
contest they muat not subordinate
the burning anti-monopoly issue.
They should point out to the temper
ance people the utter insincerity of
any plank thai could possibly bo in
serted in the platform with conaent of
the mass nf the f arty. They should
aay that , if the aui Union t ia unanimous
enough in California to desire a re
straint to bo placed uptn the free sale
of liquorf the 'minority resides in
every cityf.oonutj , town and township
government to cuioroco such restraint.
It warns the ropr blicana that in aban

are inviting defeu , They are aimply

KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE-
When Vavontino was registrar of
the West Point land office , ho robbed
and dwindled the homesteaders by
playing into the hands of an organized
gang of land sharks. This system of
plunder nnd blackmail of home *
stcadora continued under Valentino's
succeBtors until his bosom friend
and partner in rascality , Doctor
Peter Schwonck , WAS overhauled
nnd ousted. Valentino , with the
most brazen audacity , made a dcspo-
rate effort to prevent Schwonck'a re
moval , and finally , after Schwenok
was forced to resign , ho imposed on
Secretary Teller and Commissioner
Itaum by representing Schwonck as * a
political martyr. It was Vftlontino'o
man Friday , Schwonck , who
was sent from Washington
to Liccoln on a mission
to procure a cortificd census blank
which was deliberately forged nnd
when detected disgraced Nebraska in
the eyes of the whole nation. Does
any uano man doubt that Valentino
selected Schwotik for this criminal errand -
rand ? Will any reputable man dare
assert Valentino was ignorant ot the
fact that there was no state census
taken in 187" , and hence the pretense
under which ho tried to seat Majors
was a sham aud a fraud ?
After Valentino had drawn his fall
pay as judge of the Sixth district for
the time ho had served ho presented
a claim to the legislature for salary
during the time which Judge Griffey
had acted as judge , and for
which Griffey had already boon
paid. Valentino's parsonal ftp-
peal to the legislature , and his
promises of rewards in the shape of
federal patronage , resulted in an al
lowance of $1,875 , which was niado in
the bill for the relief of E. K. Valentino
tine , passed by the legislature of 1877.
This downright robbery of the tax
payers nobody has as yet dared to
dofond.
Valentino has been in Congress
nearly four yoara and during that
time his business has chiefly boon to
hunt for spoils , log roll jobs and sup
port monopoly legislation.
An active ally of the star
route ring , jjho chitnpionod | the
star route swindle in a memorable
speech which was inspired by the
Brady-Doraoy gang.
On nearly all measures tending to
reduce taxation and lessen the bur
dens of the producing and industrial
classes Valentino's vote is recorded in
fvor of reckless extravagance.
Since his advent in congress
his solo aim has been to
domineer in politics through
aystematio bulldozing and corrupt use
of patronage. Ho has debased the
public service by recommending to
office dishonest and disreputable men
who wore totally unQt for any place ,
and he is the confidential associate of
reprobates and rogues. This is in
brief the record of fho man , who

of Nebraska for a third term in

The Farewell Order of the De

This morning at 8:25 Oon.
Crook and party Joavo for Proacott ,
where the general will assume com
mand of the department of Arizona ,
fho Bpccial car of the AtchUon , Topeka -
poka and Santa Fa road has been
placed at the disposal of the officers
who will travel by the K. 0. , .and St. .Too
road to Kansas city , thence by the
Atlnnticand Pacific tun point < > 5 miles
north of Prescott wh'oro ambulances
will bo found waiting to transport
them to Whipplo barracks. The party
will bo composed as follows :
Genoa ! Orook and servant , Lieut.
Col , W. B Uoyall , Mre. Royall , Mies
lloyall , Major J. P. Martin , Mrj.
Martin , Miss Martin and two maids ,
Capt John G. Baurko , 3d cavalry aide
do camp.
The headquarters of the department
of the Platte was unusually gloomy
yesterday in anticipation of the exodus -
odus of BO largo a number of the moat
popular members of the staff. Col.
Uoyall baa boon ao long in the depart
ment , and through his length of ser
vice and splendid record is so evident
ly known that every ono regrets to lose
his companionship. Major Martin's
genial hand grasp and cheery tones
will bo greatly missed from the adju
tant general's oflico. Captain Bourke
will perhaps be especially missed by
the newspaper men to whom no'was a
perfect mine of information , illustrat
ing his stories with a ready How of wit
and humor which made them doubly
interesting and instructive while his
unvarying cordiality and readiness to
oblige even at the expense of his own
personal convenience will not soon bo
forgotten by the fraternity. A host of
friends in Omaha social circles will re
gret his change of station and his
brother oflicera will join the civilians
in wishing him a pleasant journey ,
new honors and a happy homo m
Arizona.
Captain Roberta will not easily bo
replaced in the dopatrmont. As an
emergency man he was unequalled ,
often filling the oflices of aide-do
cs amp , assistant adjutant general and
judge advocatn when occasion de
manded. His doak in the room of the
adjutant general was rarely unoccu
pied and his unvarying courtesy made
him a general favorite with all with
whom he came in contact.
So much has boon said of General
Orook and of his relations to our
people that nothing need hero be
added. The last act of the general
was to recommend an increase of the
Omaha garrison and the enlargement
of the post , and both ho and General
Sheridan worked bravely to that end
before the last session of congress.
To-day the general issued the follow
ing :

ceive the support of the county.
The county tenchorainstitute closed
on Fridayafter a two weeks' session at
this place. About thirty teachers
were in attendance and the aeasion
was made very instructive. W. W.
Wood , 'of Minden , had charge of the
institute and is deserving of much
credit for its success. Prof. Wulkor ,
of Rule , took a prominent part , and
added much to ttio general interest.
The state superintendent was expected
to bo present but failed to put m an
appearance.
ljrof. Walker has been engaged to
teach the Minden school for the en
suing year. The Sunday school county
convention was held at this place on
Saturday and Sunday. It was well
attended by Sunday school workers
both scholars and teachers. The con
vention was conducted by Mr. Stev
enson , atato Sunday school mission
ary. The reporta of the work done
in the county the paat year were very
encouraging. The model Sunday
school waa diecuased and many good
points brought out.
Base ball has its devotees in Min
den as elaewhere , and the boys are
good at the bat. They have played
several good games with the clubs in
the vicinity. We would be doing an
injuatico were we to neglect mention
ing the brass band. They have boon
moro changes of late in the band
that have put it back more , but for
all that it is full of good music.
One drawback to the. town is Ha
mail facilities. At present it receives
its mail by the way of Kearney , a dis
tance of twenty miles which has to be
made by atagu , it should be so ar
ranged that they could receive their
mail from Newark , which ia on the B.
& M. R. 11 and ia only ton miles dis
tant , lit that way the mail would
reach Minden the same night instead
of the next night as under the present
atrangoment.
Building is progressing rapidly , and
if it continues Minden will soon
double in size. The Kearney County
Gazette ia building a new office. S.
P. Tuttle and S. B. Robinson are each
preparing to build dwelling houses.
C. II. Miller ia about to put an addi
