The republicans of the First con
gressional district are to ba congratu
lated on the nomination of Judzo
Weaver. He is by all odds the ablest
and most popular candidate that was
before the convention. His record is
unueailable , and his paraonal integrity
unimpeachable. In the prime of life ,
with an active temperament and an
ambition to excel , fax ia deatinod to
achieve a national reputation in the
halls cf congress.
With forensic ability of a high order ,
quick perception and knowledge of
law , he will take rank with the fore
most debaters In the national legisla
ture. Nebraska has been represented
in congress by basswood men for many
years. It is gratifying that her repre
sentatives in congress will soon com
pare favorably with tho.vj of other
states.
Tiir.UK teems to bo little doubt that
Secretary Folgor will receive the
nomination for governor of Now
York. Wadsworth was evidently put
up to show the extent to which the
ground had given way beneath Cor
nell , but there was no real political
rongth behind it. Folger's candi-
acy on the other hand is full of
loaning. He hai been the candidate
f Arthur nnd Colliding from the bo-
inning , and has been judiciously
ithhold until the proper time for
ringing him into the field.

OTHGR LANDS THAN OURS.
Preparations are being rapidly made
'or a general advance of the British
brcos in Egyptand Monday is the day
ct on which Arabi's army in Tel-El-
Kobir will bo engaged. Sir Garnet
Voltoloy'a forces are stated at 15,000
men , with fifty guns , and rations have
cen issued for a two day's battle.
Ul the force a from Ismailia have been
rdorod to the front , and everything
ndlcatcs an impending decisive con-
ict. Against this array of trainee
roopn Arabi will muster nearly 80-
00 men. Of thcso 35,000 are
iodouins , and cannot bo do-
ended upon to stand in the
orccst fctrugglo of a L'onaral engage
ment. It is plainly Sir Garnet's plan
o end the campaign if possible by one
old atroko. In securing Tel El Kobir ,
jlenoral Woleoloy would gain thu key
o upper Ejjypt und C iro. Arabi'a
islodgomont from this important po-
ition would force upon the rebel
hioftain a retreat to lower Egypt ,
rhero hu would bu compelled to do-
and upon Bedouin assistance fur sup.
ilies for hin forces.
The first conclusive demonstralioi
if the completion of an amicable nn
derstanding between Turkey and Eng
and rolalivo to the Egyptian nituatioi
a found in the sultan'0 proclamation
list issued in pursuance of the mill
ary convention negotiated by Lori

In the work of restoring pence n

tlirco months of diplomacy to arc.ir
from the Porto this document , th
wording of which is now objected t
by Lord Duiforin , because it fails 01
plioitly to pronounce Arab ! a rob *
while declaring that ho dcservou to b

bo landed at Aboukir , and not r
Alexandria , to cooperate with th
English forcer , and 3,000 have alread
embarked from Sudii Buy.
It is , perhaps , fortunate for Greet
that her frontier war with Turke
came to an abrupt conclusion. How
over'disaatiificd aho may bo with th
boundaries defined by thu coinmissio
provided for in the Berlin treaty , nil
is hardly in u condition to rip it u
and inuko an aggressive war for tli
enlargement of hur territory. With
population of leva than 2,000,000 , ii
eluding the 293,000 added by the ai
( ( uisition of territory , and that popi
lation , for the most part poor , a del
of over fourteen millions of pound
sterling becomes a heavy burden , an
a standing army of thirty-fivo tliou
and men is a great tax upon the pm
pie. Still , the Greeks are highly pi
triotio , and would cheerfully eubin
to sacrifices , if thereby they could ai
quire thu remainder of Epirus and i
much of Thosialy as ia populated b
Greeks ,
A country with a very limited con
murco , the principal export being GUI
rants , without roads in the interioi
with agriculture backward und con

but few cities in a thriving or proi

tor ahcath ( ho sword , take up th

already possess.
After a session ot seven months ( h
French congress adjourned a forl
night ufo. The period uinco Januar

Ho was followed by M. do Fruycinet
who oujoyud u briut roigu of puwu :
and then gave place to M Duclerc ,
who , in turn , ia likely to go down
daring the next session. The proro
gation carat ) rather unexpectedly , but
lot to the regret of the deputies and
senators , who were as glad to get out
of their chambers as the now govern
ment was to get rid of them for a time.
No great space is likely to elapse be
fore a new meeting.
Ever since the last war Franco has
been held up to view as a country with
a marvelous financial system and with
marvelous debt paying powers. Of
late it is moro just to point to it as a
laud of remarkable extravagance ,
where the tax gatherer calls often ,
and where the burdonx which ho im-
psea become doily harder to bear.
The people protest , but in vain. The
expenses of the government for the
comine year will amount to $1,100-
000,000 , or two and one half times as
much as the expenses of our govern
ment , with a larger population here ,
and an almost infinitely vaster ex
panse of country. The French taxes
amount to about $30 per head of the
population , or , aay $150 for the average -
ago family. The debt of Franco has
rtoadily increased under the republic ,
and now amounts to $4,000,000,000 ,
or double ours , and the interest is
3150,000,000 a year.
The power of a common religious
bond to overmaster all political , eth-
nologicil , and even doctrinal differ
ences h strikingly shown in the force
with which the shock of the Egyptian
crisis has pulsed through every fibei
of the Maliammodan world. In Brit
ish India the Moslem Ulomnns have
called to account the Turkish consul
at Bombay for his master's conduct in
sending troops to aid the unbeliovci
against the Mussulman. In Syria the
Moslem population is said to be tc
highly excited that "a trifling inci
dent would Buflico to sot thu whole
province ablazo. " Even in the depths
of Central Africa forces are bung
muntored to Cght against the
cnomtea of the truefaith. . There can
bo very little doubt that , should the
British army in the delta suffer any
chock , or even bo supposed to have
suffered one , the effect on the sur
rounding Mohammedan nations will
bo such as to throw the outbreak ol
the sepoy mutiny itself into the
hade. But whatever temporary im-
lortanco the Sultan may durive froir
lii assumption of the dignity ol
'pacificator of E ypt , " there can bi
ittl\ \ ) doubt that his conduct in dis
patching his soldiers to assist the En
; lish "infidel" against the Moslorr
Arab will remove him further that
over from his coveted objuot of becoming
coming the recognized head of thi
Mohammedan world.

The fight between Iho Union Pa
cific and 0. B. it Q. , actively begun
in the opening of the B. it M. exten-
ion to Denver , is at ill naged with all
! io bitterness of waifaro in the iron
world. It will bo remembered that
ho U. 1 * . refused to nign the articles
f the Colorado pool unless the Bur *
in ton would agree not to extend its
ines west of Denver. This it would
lot do , the fact being , in all proba-
ility that they alro.idy virtually con-
rol the Denver & llio Owndo Wrst-
rn , on which tie completion of 300
milus of road will give them a through
ino between Chicago and Salt Luke
" } ity. The importttncu of B curing a
hare of the rich traJu of Utah and
uthor vitatern territories is not Rein ?
to bo thrown away , and fur all the al-
[ pgcd amiability existing between the
J. P. and 0. P. roads , the fact re-
nainfl that the former road has taken
caru to Eocuro two outkts to the Pa
cific coast , 0110 by way of the Orniron
Short linu and the other by the Utah
& Nevada road , via Eureka. In con-
loction with this struggle for
the control of the trans
continental tn.flb and travel , the Chicago
cage Tribune says of the recent pur
chase of the Hannibil & St. Joe by
, hu Uould syndicate :
"Thtro Ilia been it general imprcs
sion hero and elsowhnre that the pur
chase of the Hannibal .t St. Joe by
.ho Gould Byndicdto was madu in the
ntcrtat of the Wabash. It was taken
'or granted that as thu Wuhanh make *
connection with thu Hannibal and St.
Jou terminus at Hannibal the latter
must necessarily bt-comn the western
mtlut of thuVabash from Hannibal.
Thu Tribunu ia creditably informed
; hat the purclmao of the Duff atock in
, hu Hannibal & St. .Too by the Gould
syndicate was not made in the inter
est of the \Vabash , but in the interest
of the Union Tactile. This state
ment gains affirmation from the
act that Dillon , Ames and other
Union Pacific magnates belong to
the syndicate which purchased the
control of the Hannibal & St. Joe ,
ivhilo beaidrs Gould there nro noVix -
t > aeh magnates in the syndicate. It
looked queer from the first that Gould
should purchase the Hannibal it St.
Joe for the Wabash , as this road has
no earthly uao for it , having a much
better western outlet now via the
Missouri , Kansas & Texas to Moborly ,
and thoacu via its line to Kansas City ,
which makes a much shorter route to
Kansas City than it would have in
connection with the Hannibal & St.
Joo. The Union Pacific , by securing
control of the Hannibal & St. Joe ,
acquires a club by which it expects to
punish the Chicago , Burlington &
Quincy for building a computing line
to Denver and for refusing to sign an
agreement not to build any now lines
in Colorado and west of Denver. "
"As is generally known , a short
time I K ( ) a" agreement for the forma
tion of a pool on business between the
Missouri river and the Rocky moun
tains was perfected in this city by the
Union Pacilic , Chicago , Burlington it
Quincy , and Atohison , Topeka &
tiimU Fo. The Union Pacilio man-
agora , however , refused to sign tin
agreement unloBes the Burlington
would promise not to build any now
lines west of Danvor. The Burling ,
ton people of course refused to ncaude
to this demand. Thu Union Pacific
paaplo have over since been lookniL
tor an opportunity to punish the Bur
liiif.ton for this refusal to keep out o
what they consider their territory ,
and threats hnvo been frequently
made uittcu that the Union P.icitic , in
caao the Burlington continues to push
westward , would build or establish c
linn of its own from thu Missouri rivi i
to Chicago , to run parallel with the
Burlington. Thokacquisition of thu
Hannibal it St Joe is the first atop
towards carrying out that throat.
The Uiinnib.il it St. Joe will bruit
the Union Pacific from the Misaour
river to the Mississippi river over thu
very line which the Burlington has
boon using an its direct outlet to Kan
sas City. From the Mississippi to
Chicai'o n line was chartered and stir
voycd some tinio ago , known as the
Httnnibal , St. Joe it Chicago railroad ,
which was almost punUktl with thu
Burlington , and the Union Pacific no
doubt muana to build this line as soon
as possible , if no compromise ran bo
btiWtcd with the Burlington Gould
and the Union 1'acilio people do not
so much care to Jwvo a direct line
from the Missouri river to Chicago aa
they do to havn the Burlington coasu
buildinc extuntioiiB west of Denver ,
and it ia therefore quitp likitly that
thuy will oll'.ir the Burlington to let
it luvo the Hannibal & St , Jeo , and
Mao uivo up the attempt to txtond the
road to Chio o , if it will ifivo pledges
not to build any m > ro liuoi west of
Djnver. It is very doubtful however ,
that the Burlington will recede tm
iota from the petition it has hereto
fore taken. The Burlington managers
are not the kind of people who aru
easily bulldozed , and they have in all
contests with dnuld thus far proven
to be garno. Wliilu they will hardly
ba pleased with the idea of having the
Unirn Pacific as a competitor at all
the Mirsoun river points and all the
way to Chicago , yet they can better
atlord to submit to this than to tie
their hands with an agreement not to
build any extensions in Colorado and
west of Donver. By doing this the
Burlington would always be depend
ent upon the U < ion Pacific for a Paci
fic coast outlet , und it would nnver
recaivu the benefit from ita now Den
ver liuu which it expects from it. The
Union Pacific by building a dirt'ct
liiiu to Chicago will not only strike
the Builiugton , but also all
the other lines leading from
Chicago to f Missouri river points.
This would only help to
cement the friendship between thu
Burlington and the other Mlsiouii
river loads from this city , and the
Union Pacific would bo the grcatott
sufferer by having to compete against
nearly all the roads from which it now
gets ita traffic. Gjuld , by this coup
i'ctat , evidently means to bring the
iiurlington to ti-rma aud .force it to
teep out of the Pacific country , which
IB considers ns his sole property If
le succeeds in this he will no doubt
turn the Hannibal , fc St. Joe over to
he Burlington agim , and all will be
je.ico atid harmoi y. If ho does no
succeed in thu ho will no doubt se <
cure a Chicago oxta .sion to Chicago
via the Hannibal & St. Joe , and there
will bewar _ and strife until it has bet n
letermined whdther anybody but
lould and his syndicate has any richt
o build roads west of the eastern 1L
of the Rocky Mountains ,

I ktiuw Hop BittiTa will bear rec
ommendation honestly. All who usu
.them confer upon them the hiuhost
encomiums , and give- them credit for
making cures all thu proprietors
claim for them. I have kept them
since they wore first offered to the pub
lic. They took high rank from the
first , and maintained it , and are more
called for than all others combined. So
long as ( bey keep up their high repu
tation for purity and usefulness , I
shall continue to recommend them
something I hava never before done
with any other patent medicine.
