official endorsement of the anti-mo-

Hastings. IIo was called before a
oonvcntion mndo up of delegates from
'orory county of the district nnd on-
doraed the anti-monopoly platform ,
With his splendid rccorl as a man nnd
a public officer , Mr. Turner will unlcr
the canvass against Valentino with nil
the elements which attract thn oupport
of honest voters in his favor. Aa n
staunch republican , who cannot be
used by the monopolies or bribed by
their tools , he will draw to his candi
dacy the votes of thousands of repub
licans , who will not vote for n demo
crat through fear of changing the
relative party strength in congress.
As a practical farmer , nn unswerving
advocate of anti-monopoly principles
and n sterling citizen of the atato , Mr.
Turner will poll the full anti.monop
ely vote of his district. Stops are
being taken to ortranizo n thorough
canvas * on behalf of the people's can
didate , In which the issues involved
shall bo brought clearly before the
Voters of the Third district.
Mu GLADSTONE haa at laat made

country with his parliamentary dec
larations are doomed to disappoint

- will refuse to either annex or control
as a ruler the conquered territory ,
bnt will leave the country to
Its own people with guarantees
foreign intrigue and domestic pillage.
The enormous debt at high rates of
intercut is to bo sealed ; the joint con
trol is to bo replaced by an English
resident ; the power of the khodiva
under the suzerainty of thu sultan reaffirmed
affirmed , and nrmy abolished and ita
place taken by a gondarmio or police
which will no longer bo a standing
menace to civic control. The premier
proposes to submit the question of
England's control nf the Suez cana to
conference of the powers and to
acquieico in such reasonable
limitations as they may suggest. The
bugbear of English totritorial aggran
dizements is thus exploded at ono
strike , It ia made clear that Mr ,
Gladstone meant exactly what he aaid
when ho declared to parliament that
the object of the war waa the restora
tion of order in Egypt and the scour
ing of guarantees which would in fu
ture protect the country from the an
archy of last spring. It is a pro
gramme which will meet with cordial
approval from the jealous powers.

folk Journal ,
Wo hnvo taken the pains to investi
gate the matter and find the Journal
to bo correct. Wo have it from Con
gressman Valentino himself that the
emissary was sent by Rosowntor as
stated. Ho came authorized to nay that
if Mr. Valentino would join Ilcse-
watcr they would inaugurate a fight
on SaundorA and kill him off. Ilojo-
water stated that he could control Van
Wyck , and thus they would have en
tire control of the federal patronage of
the state. Mr. Valentino spurned the
offer as ho hnd all previous overtures
from the same source. This is the
occasion of Ilosowator's hostility to
Valentino. There is just as much
honesty in this Unlit as there is in any
that ho wages. Wo take it for granted
that Ilosowator will deny this , bat wo
call the attention of the republicans
of the Third district to the fact that it
is Valentino's word against HOBO-
water's. This will settle the mutter
in the minds of people who know both
men , Mr. Valentine did not make
this statement for publication. Ho
did not oven think the matter worthy
of mention here , but the Juunud ar
ticle brought it to notice. Wo called
upon our congressman and
from him learned the above
article was correct In every
particular. In conclusion ho st.d ! :
"You newspaper followa bettor do as
I have done and lot Rosewater rest.
Ho depends upon the notoriety that
he gets in the refutation of his misstatements -
statements , and ho misstates for this
very purpose. If Ilosowater was not
abused by the state press ho would bo
compelled either to run a legitimate
business and build up his paper on its
real merits , or , like Othello , his occu
pation would soon bo gone. " There
. a good deal of truth in this , no
doubt. Rosewater would bo like a
fiah out of water if the notice ho is re
ceiving from tliM press should sud
denly cease It'ttt 1'oint Jteyublican ,
This is n Hpocimon brick of Valen
tino's campaign lies. About seven
years ago , General Strickland naked
mo as a personal favor to employ n
young man by the name of George M ,
Fillmoro. lie had boon in the employ
of the Union Pacific , but was out of a
job for reasons which I did not then
know. IIo called on mo and repre
sented himself as highly connected In
the east , being , i\s ho said , a nephew
of ox-President Fillmore , I engaged
him as travelling agent and correspond
dent , and astlgnod him to the territory
of UUh , After ho had boon in Utah
several weeks and failed to report , I
directed our local Salt Like correspondent
pendent to look him up , and soon
learned ho was on a big drunk , had
squandered every dollar of the sub
scriptions collected and had con
tracted couuiderublu debt besides.
Thereupon I caused him to bo adver
tised in the Salt L ko lltnild and
Deseret Jfcici , and notified all con
cerned to forward their receipts so
they could bo served with thu paper.
Four or five years later I mot Fillmore
hanging round the hotels at
Washington ; but up to this date
ho has not offered to make
good the deficit , I was in Washing-
toil at the inaugural of General Garfield -
field and a few days later Fillmore
called on mo with n personal friend
and then and there suggested that he
would be glad to bring about friendly
relations between Valentino and the
, wo senators , IIo claimed to bo an
especial friend of Valentino and was
holding a position In the census bureau
at that time through his influence.
IIo proposed to arrange a meeting be-
Lweonlnyself and Valentino with the
view of getting himself indorsed for
the position of secretary of Arizona by
the Nebraska delegation. I told him
I had nothing to do with
Valentino and would not interpose if
Valentino should BOO fit to enter into
our arrangements with the senator * .
IIo insisted that ho would see Valentino
tine and try to bring about a mooting.
Whether ho did or did not I cannot
Loll. Suffice it to say that I never
Imvo since mot him and the stale
inent that ho brought \no any message
From Valentino is a downright fabri
cation.
The story bcara evidence of false
hood on the face. The alleged nt
tempt to got Valentino to join Van
Wyck was made while General Gar
field was president. Val. had littjo erne
no influence with him , while both
senators were on the very best of
terms , and my personal relations with
the president were very friendly. I
had no patronage to seek then any
more than now , but if I had wanted
to exert influence I could have done
so then without Valentino with Garfield -
field , as I could do so
now with Arthur , through friends
who are a good deal nearer the throne
than ho is or over will bo. The idea
that Valentino "spurned the offer as
ho had all previous overtures from the
tame source , " is decidedly rich.
When did ho have those previous
overtures ? Waa it when ho called at
THE 13KF. oflico , just after Frank
Welch died , to impose on my credulity
with the story that the boys wcro for
him , but Hitchcock and the Union
Pacific would fight him , and ho might
want my support ? Or was it after
Hayes gave htm the black eye by
nominating Crounso collector at my
urgent request nud against his person
al protest.
As between my voracity and that ot
Valentino , it will take n good many
affidavits from George M. Fillmore
, o provn that I over made overtures to
ilm for anything. E. HOHEWATEIU
TUB present stnto and congressional
campaign in Nebraska ic the first in
the history of this atato in which the
[ looplo can express their will at the
[ ) o11k by electing candidates for all
ollices who are pledged to represent
their interests. Both political parties
: iavo boon surrendered to the monopo-
ios , and through the skillful suppres
sion of popular sentiment and by
brazen fraud have succeeded in nomi
nating candidates who , with ono or
two exceptions , are acceptable
to the monopolies. In each
a condition of political affairs
nothing remains but the
nomination of men who could hon
estly appeal to the producers of this
state for their votes on platforms
pledging them us representatives oi
the people , opinions and backed by
records which guaranteed their pro
fusions. This has been dona and the
voters of Nebraska are left to endorse
or condemn such action. Party poli
tics should have no place in the pres
ent campaign. There are no national
issues involved. The question is
whether the people or corporate mon
opolies shall rule our state and repre
sent us in the national legislature.
Before this overshadowing issue all
minor lines of difference must bo
erased.
The canvass upon which wo have
entered is a people's campaign , be
cause it is waged in the popular inter
est , and with candidates nominated
by the free and unrestricted vote ol
the people themselves.

NATIONAL EDUCATIONAL
STATISTICS
The eleventh annual report of the
commissioner of education , covering
the year 1880 , has been issued. The
commissioner states that the present
year has boon marked by a great Increase -
crease in the amount and value of the
information received at the oflico with
reference to the csndnct of education
in our own and in foreign countries ,
and by a corresponding increase in
the public demand for tbo distribu
tion of information. The means
allowed the oflico for carrying on the
interchange of intelligence are en
tirely inadequate , whether regard bo
had to specific inquiries or to informa
tion which should ba published in the
general interest of this department of
public affairs.
Seven circulars of information and
six bulletins have been published
during the year , comprising among
others the following subjects : Oollogo
libraries ns. aids to instruction ; rural
school architecture , with illustrations ;
English rural schools , with illustra
tions ; a report on the teaching of
chemistry and physics ia the United
States ; vacation colonies for sickly
school children ; the Indian school at
Carlisle barracksj industrial educa
tion in Europe ; inodiccl colleges in
the United States.
The number of American correspon
dents of the office , including officers
of state and local systems and institu
tions of learning , is 8,231 , or moro
than four times the number at the beginning -
ginning of the present decade To
thematorial derived from these sources
muit bo added the foreign matters ,
reports and periodicals , all of which
must bo examined and summarized for
the report.
In introducing the statistical sum
mary the commissioner explains the
scope and value of a perfect system of
tabnlarizatton and points out some of
the deficiencies in the plans pursued
in various states pndlocalities. Great
improvement in this respect is notice
able in the returns and reports receiv
ed at the oflico , and every year in
creases the value of the figures for
purposes of study and generalization.
So far as practicable the statistics m
the present report include a compara
tive view of education for the decade
ending 1879-80. The total school
population in the state for 1880 is ID-
351,875 , ; number enrolled in public
schools , 9,080,403 ; average daily at
tendance , 5,741,188 , four states not
reporting. The school population of
the territories is 184,405 , Idaho and
Wyoming not reporting ; enrolment
in public schools , 101,118 ; average
daily attendance 61,151 , two territories
not reporting. The percentages of en
rolment and average daily attendance
ore highest in Massachusetts and the
lowest In Louisiana.
Of Nebraska the commissioner says :
"Hero school population increased
during 1879-80 by 18,937 and public
school enrolment by 15,593 , the num
ber enrolled being 05 per cent of the
school population , against 02 per cent
in 1878-79. Private school attend
ance was not reported. Of 350 now
school districts , 8 moro had graded
schools , 109 more furnished free text
books , and 152 more had terms lasting
at six months , while the average term
increased by 2 days. Public school
houses increased by 212 ; the value of
property , by $254,680 ; public school
income , by $240,480 ; the average
monthly pay of teachers , by $2.87 for
men and $2.37 for women.
The increase ) during the ton years
has been striking , youth of school ago
advancing by 101,285 , and public
school enrolment by 09,284 , the en
rolment having gained 10 per cent on
school population , an advance of 1 0
for each year. The average school
term Increased by 37 days , the num
ber of school houses by 2,143 , and
value of school property by f 1,043-
831. The only offset to these indica
tions of progress ia a decrease in
teachers' pay , that for men being
$2.38 and that for women $4 08 a
month lees , whilo'thelr qualifications ,
it is stated , have been much im >
piovud through the influence of nor
mal schools and teachers' institutes , "
THE 7ifiuWiViH assorts that J < olgcr
is opposed in Now York only by mich
papers as the fluflalo Express , Six
teen prominent republican newspapers
have up to date refused to support the
nominees of the Saratoga convention ,
Of those the Etpreit and the Albany
Journal are the most conspicuous ,
both being leading republican jour
nals outside of Now York city. In
this connection wo reproduce from the
Hjcprtu for the benefit of Nebraska republicans -
publicans the following extract which
has a very pertinent application to the
political situation in our own state ;
"Wo cannot help wishing that all
of our contemporaries would now ,
much moro powerfully than the Et-
} > rss can , make their disapprobation
manifest , every day until election ,
by advocating the election of Mr ,
Cleveland , in the honest belief , as wo
most steadfastly entertain it , that only
through the wholesome discipline of
a humiliating defeat this year can the
botsca who uaurp all the power of the
party be convinced of the necessity of
harmonizing the party in order to car
ry the state and elect a republican
president two years honco. With the
party dietrac'ed then by faction
al contentions as it is now
with the great majority of its
rank and file practically disfranchised ,
and with all earliest aapirations tor ro.
form ignored or insulted it will bo
impossible to do that. But lot the
administration bosses who are respon
sible for the present state of things
who have by fraud and forgery forced
Improper candidates upon an unwill
ing party lot them learn by rude ex
perience that a nomination does not
moan an election and that a boss shall
wield but a barren sceptre , and they
will immediately beqin to get ready to
show some respect for those who cm-
not bo ruled by brute force nor swayed
bj ; the hope of spoils , and will give us
fair caucuses and honest conventions ,
with candidates as well as declarations
to represent the trno principles of re
publicanism. "

the republican nomination for congress
at thu convention at Hastings on
Tuesday. It is the first time in the

have dared to put up ono of their own

the people of this monopoly ridden
state. Ono thought adds comfort , and
that is the hard crust of partisan
prejudice that has BO tightly bound

onflow of political light that Is flooding

Lot TJd Have a Chango.
DaVota Argus.
The OMAHA BEE ia strongly urging
that the atate board of equalization
be abolished , and wo would anggest
that the anti-monopolists of the state
take that as a part of the issue. In
theory , the board nnd its powers are
all right , but the manner in which ita
members have been manipulated by
the railroadc , make it a disgrace to the
state and the cover for a high-haudod
thievery of the pooplo'a money. The
object in creating the board was to
give every county along the line an
equal chance , by assessing the round
houses , depots , rolling stock , etc. , and
dividing the whole at ao
much per mile. Instead ,
however , the board does not fix the
valuation of the road bed alone at half
ita taxable value , thus unlawfully
saving to the railroads of the atato
thousands of dollars annually. No
wonder the monopolies can afford to
spend money so freely to elect their
miniona to office. The people have to
pay the bills. It is because it Is im
possible to aecuro the benefit * from
the system that wo advocate that the
board be abolished entirely. It would
then bo loft to the assessors along thu
line , and the roads would find it ex
ceedingly difficult to bribe or influence
all of them. A change could not pos
sibly bo for the worst , so by all means
let us have a change.
A Remarkable Production.
The leading republican organ of
Morrick county , which oven now sup
ports the republican ticket , including
Valentine , makes the following com
ment on the platform :
Central City Courfer.
The platform adopted by the repub
lican state convention is a remarkable
production. No moro meaningless sot
of resolutions probably wore over
dignified with that name. The first
plank indorses all those principles
which are usually enunciated in re
publican platform , of which the most
are endorsed by all parties and the
rest by a little moro than a majority
of republicans , and little less than a
majority of democrats. The second
plank resolves that the railroads ought
to do the square thing by the people ,
and that the people ought to be very
careful not to infringe on the rights
of the railroads. It doesn't go
into particulars probably through
fear of hurting somebody's fellings.
The third plank is an inconsequent ono
endorsing the policy of the itute board
of lands and buildings , and the fourth
endorses the nomination of Valentino
und Weaver. The orators of the con
vention plucked the * .ail feathers of
the proud bird of freedom until it
screamed again pbout the brilliant
record of the republican party and
its glorious mission , but their plat
form falls to state a single object for
which this glorious party is to work.
The democrats have adopted an anti-
prohibition plank to catch the whisky
republicans. The repblicans would
have put themselves in accord with
the sentiment of the people of the
state and made hundreds of votes by
adopting a prohibtion plank ,
but it dodges the lisuo. Some
body introduced a resolution
that railroad corporations should be
compelled to procure patents on their
lands BO that they coald bo taxed , and
another endorsing the president's veto
of the river and harbor bill. Both
these resolutions involved living is
sues. The first involves a very prac
tical phase of the monopoly question ,
and the second a much needed rebuke
to the constantly increasing tendency
to plunder the public treasury. These
resolutions were referred to the com
mittee on resolutions , but they re
fused to report them to the conven
tion. Both resolutions would be
endorsed by niuo-touths of the voters
of the state. Itat.tho adoption of the
first would have been a compliment to
Van Wyck and the adoption of the
second n rebuke to Valentino. Chair
man Gere's dislike of Senator Van
Wjck amounts to a mania , while Val
entino is his especial pot , and of course
ho could never bring himself to report
two such resolutions to the conven
tion. To these and certain other
peculiarities of Chairman Gore the
republican platform doubtless owes its
remarkable character.
