DEFENDING THE BTEAL.
The supporters of E K. Valentino
are miking fruntio eifjrta to defend
his vote in congress on thu river and
harbor steal. They are frightened
at the overwhelming public sentiment
againot this giguntio raid on the nu
Uonal treasury. Ohio , which il tf catet
five river and harbor utateemcn at thu
late election , is a dreadful instance
wl ioh may be repeated in the Thirc
J district of Nobnuikn. On this acooun
Judge Mason , vrho is paid $100 i
Hpoooh for defending Val and attack
fng Senator Van Wyck , devotes i
forgo portion of his speech , to the
river and harbor bill , und hnd the
olvook to toll his audience thtt Val'
vote in favor of the steal was a highly
oomnicndnblo piece of buccaiicerii g
The river and liuibor bill wus the inns
monetrous piocu of log-rolling whicl
ever B&W the light in congre-ea. Scores
ol appropriations were nude for
crooks , biyouj and gulches , which
never wcro oud never can bo of na
tional importance. Millions were
reoklQssly voted awny to enable cast
um and southern cungrcnoinon toinako
thomselvfls solid with thiir disiricU
The appropriation of $18,743,875
which the bill callid for , wus nearly
alght millions gtoator than ita predo
oeasor , which was denounced by the
'press of the country as an un pur all IK
owitidlo. Moru thatrono half of tin
tiutire $18,000,000 waa for improving
trout streams and macadamizing
bottoms of dry creoka and improving
harbors which never BMV a vessel
Such a bold-faced and brazen frauc
waa ticvor before rushed through th
national logiala'ure. '

U fa c that It will take clove
on to 0,000,000 ( o complete the
whole of our new works. It ia
not alone o account of the money di
rsUy frorn the trewury by thU
one bill thai popular indignation ia to
strongly aroused , bat because' it is
on'y ' iho on'erlng wedge ordering nae-
loss work , which outside of the Miatis-
sippt and Missouri river alone will require
quire $63,0 JO.OOO to complete. Prcsi
dent Arthur clearly recognized this
fact , anl in his veto mptaigo
said : "Appropriations of this nature ,
to Ijo devo'od purely to local objects ,
tend ( o increase In number and
amount. As the citizens of ono state
Gnd that money to raise whioh they ,
In common with the whole country ,
are taxed la to bo expended for local
improvement in another stale , they
demand similar bonoGtaforthemselves ,
and it it not unnatural that they
should seek tc indemnify themselves
for such uie of the public funds by
securing appropriations.for similar
improvements in their own neighbor-
liood , Thus , as the bill becomes more
objectionable it secures more support. "
It is the height of cheek for E. K.
Valentino or any other of the river
and harbor statesmen to defend their
vote on the ground that the bill as
pistcd wa ? an anti-monopoly measure.
? o ono objected to the only necessary
appropriation ? . The itcma relating
to the Mistiftsippl and Missouri livtr
were unanimously commended b >
bothttho projs and the president. But
ho bulk of this gigantic an indlo was
concocted solely in the private inter
03t of individual congressmen , to aid
heir candidacy and to tickle local
constituencies. It was a monumsntnl
windlc. Every congressman knew it
o bo BO. It was the raid of highway
men upon the national troasnry. It
was denounced as such by every load-
ng journal of both political parties.
And the outburat of indignation from
n outraged people whioh followed the
lassago of the measure waa grounded
n the knowledge that their represent-
lives had brar.anly defied public sen-
imcnt in overriding the presidential
voto.

Fifteen congressmen have already

THE NEW CODRT HOUSE.
The corner stone of the now court
louse now erecting for Douglas coun-
y was laid yesterday with appropriate
eromonioB , full details of which have
appeared in our locil columns. The
mildlng will bo a credit to Omaha.
it will afford handsome and commo
dious quarters for our county officer *
and a secure and fire proof depository
for the reoordu which for yean have
boon exposed to destruction. The old
uhell on Farrmm street years ago
outlived ita usefulness. Begun in
I857 | and completed two years later ,
it was considered in early days ns a
pretentious and fire proof structure.
But it would long ago have been re
placed by a handsomer and larger
juilding if Douglas county had not
wisely decided not to build until It
could erect a court house which would
be in ncoard with the rapidly inorena
ing wealth of the county and the
urowing commercial importance ol
Omaha , its county sear. TUB BIIK
from the outset cf the long struggle
which finally resulted in thu letting of
the contracts f r the present court
house insisted that solidity and fire
prool qui'hiei ' ibould not bo sacrificed
to s tauui a icooomy and that the
building ahoatd be one which would bo
on * A credit to the county
icd a ornunjnt to the city. Thu
diictuuon orer the change of ma
Uruli and the lowering of the Far-
nam ctreot gradu have delayed thu
wotk , Irat the outcome will fully jus
tify the aehy. With many of our cit-
fzjns TUT HUB thinka that the city
hall and county haute ought to have
been combined , both aa a meaturo o
co-jnoiay and bi-ciuiu such a combina
tion would have enabled thu county
commissioners to have erected a finer
structure through thu addition of an
other story. ' The question in y yo
oomu up , but meantime ovary citizen
of Omaha und Douglas county may b
congratulated that thu now court hous
will bo a building of which every Nebraskan
braskan may bo proud aa uno of the
largest1 , handsomest and most convenient
voniont county court houses went o

PAVING TENTH
Mr. .Tunica Oruighton chairman o
Uio , board of public works hai made i
thorough inveetlgation r/f the Min
neuuta lime atone and Sioux Fall
granite. The .conclusion reached b ;
Mr. Oruighton i * that the granite
quarrica nt Sluux Falls arc practioilly
inexhaustible and sudicient for sup
plying un unlimited amount of pay
ing block. Thoto quarries are haudlec
by capitalists of great fiuancia
strength and business ability , A force
of expert stone cutters ia engaged in
prepiiiuij the blocks for paving pur
poses , DO that it ia perfectly safe for
Omaha to outer into a contract f ? r thu
paving of Tenth atreet with thin ma
terial.
Mr. Oroighton in hfs report recom
mends that the Iward shall award the
contract for this stone to Wm. Mack
& Co. at once , ao that no deity elml !
x > cxptrienced in the paving of
Tenth atreet. The bids under the
, dvertiacmcnt of the 25th cf August ,
wora for granite block with concrete
foundation ; f810 per iqtiaro
yard ior Montollo granite , aamo
foundation ; $7.00 for Sionx
lls granite , simo foundation , $0.85 ;
Sioux Falls granite , with land and
gravel foundation , (5.43. These bids
were rejected by the board because
they deemed the price altogether too
high.On
On the 30th of September Iho
joard roadvcrtiaed for bids for paving
Tenth street and bids wore received
ranging from $5.33 per square yard to
$2.65 $ per tquare jard. Among
these bids William Mack & Co. pro
posed to pave with tiioux Falls granite
with broken stone and sand founda
tion for $4 3G per rquoro yard. Thu
owcst previous bid fjr the same
itono with very much inferior founds-
ions of sand and gravel was $5 43 per
quaro yard. This bid it regarded as
very reasonable , and Mr. Ci-eightou ,
n view of the fast that the owners of
roporty on Tenth street desire granitu
> lock pavement recommends that the
Contract bo awarded. Mr. Barker , of
ho'bonrd of public works , aeks for de
ay and favoio na wo are iiiformcd the
chemo io pave with Colorado eaud
tone. Now while wo concede that
ho Colorado scene ia well adapted for
> uilding purposes it cuinot possibly
lompoto with granite for durability
or paving purposes. If the Stoux
. ' 'alia granlto stands the test with gran-
to that is used elsewhere it certainly
s the right material. The fact that
Chicago is paving several of her streets
with Sioux Falls granite would indi >
iato that they have confidence in it.
iVith all duo deference to Mr. Barker
[ 'UK BEE can see no coed rea
on why any further delay should
> e countenanced. The property
owners on Tenth street have asked for
ranito. The merchants of Omaha
are vitally interested in hav-
ng Tenth street paved with the beat
material nnd at the earliest moment.
[ f W. Stout , who has interest in the
Colorado quarries , can give Omaha the
cind of paving material she wants we
are in favor of Mr. Stout. If Wm.
Vlack or any other responsible con
tractor is ready to do thu paving with
bolter material than Mr. Stout can
; lvo us at a reasonable rate , wo bo
iovo it to bo to the interest of Omaha
iO award the contract. Tenth atreot
should be paved with granite without
delay.
A Per Mlle Bute.
The Lincoln Journal has frequently
tatod that a regulation of the charges
of railroads requiring them to charge
certain amount per ton for eaoh
mile for freight transported would
work dieuatrously to the Nebraska
Farmer , who ia at Iho far end of a
long haul , It would seem that it
would depend upon what rate per ton
pur mile was charged. It the aamo
rate waa fixed aa the maximum charge
for the transportation of grain , as
was in foot charged by anme of the
loading ttuuk roado in 1881 , upon an
average for each ton onrriud , it would
cheapen rates to the Nebraska farmer
The charge for transporting a car
losd of corn from Lincoln to Chicago
1550 milei la § 70. The average
ntte charged for hauling a ton of
freight onu milo in 1881 by the Pitta-
burg & Furt Wnytiu railroad , WAV
three fourihs of OLO cent ; by the Now
York Central it waa eovon hundred
and eighty-three ono thousandths nf
ono cent ; by the Michigm Central it
waa seven hundred und eighteen
one thousandths of ono cent.
Say the average charge for the
three roads named was thrcivfourlhe
of one cent per milo. A car load ol
corn containing 200 bushels , weighing
sixty pounds per bushel , would con-
tttin 21,000 pounds , or ten and one
half tons , which at three-fourths of
ouo cent per milo , would amount to
seven ana seven-eights cents per ion
pjr mile , and at this rate the cost of
luulmu a car load of corn to Chicago
from Lincoln would bo forty-three
dollars and six cents , but httlu over
one-half the present charges. At the
lauid rate the cost of haulu g the earno
car from Lincoln to Now \ork , esti
mating the distance to be 1,500 miles ,
would bo $ U80. Corn and the
bulky produce of farmers should be' '
and is hauled for a less rate than the *
overaproate charged for freight car
ried , as witness the editorial of the
Lincoln Journal of thu 21-.li of Goto-
bur.
bur.Ao
Ao the not revenue of 0. B it Q
railroad for 1881 , was $10,749,789 47 ,
it would seuin that this road might
ufl'ord to haul freight at aa cheap rates
aa other toada , The fact is that no
other roads are more prosperous
than the trunk lines of the west that
by pooling contracts maintain high
rates of tarilf , and subsidized journal !
alone ace that the taritfi of those
roada are adjusted with a tender com-
ptrmoii fur thu intorcstfl of the west
ern farmer and that a fixed rate per
ton per milo would operate to the injury -
jury of the people , The secret nd
the only beoret of the auooees of such
a rate is to make it low enough to pro
tect the people living reinotu from , ns
well as near to markets , and that such
a rate would do as much for the
roodi as justice requires it ubosin by
the great prospunty of the roads

LONDON , October H5 In the com
moiia to-day Gladstone preasoi his
motion which ho introduced yester
day , to defer all discussion regarding

VTOJ adopted without notable debate.
A special to the western associated
press Bays : In the house of commons
this afternoon , when the resolution
came up to adopt the rules on proced
ure , Sir Henry Drummond Wolff , con-
atrsrative , offered as an amendment
that the chairman of the oommittoo of
the whole house should not , under the
resolution , have power of cloturo.
Gladstone said ho would refuse to
accept such amendment. Sir Richard
Ashuton Cross and Lord John Man
ners and other conservatives con
tended that this resolution requires
some modification and that the speak
er waa the only person who. should in
law and equity hold in his hands the
power of cloturo.
Gladstone then oQared to accept an
amendment which should limit action
upon the resolution to the chairmtn
of the committee on ways and means ;
also < m amendment that no member
should bet allowed to act aa chairman
of that committco without first ob
taining the sanction of the house.
Lord Randolph Churchiil eaid that
in order to obtain full information as
to the government's scheme ho desired
to move an adjournment fur the pros
cut.

Sir Stafford Northcote , conserva
tive , urged that if thu government
really had a perfect schema it ought
at once muke it known to the house.
A division was called for on the mo
tion for adjournment , resulting 13G

proyido that the session , shall termin

for veracity was not good. Gan. I. N.
Stilus thought Mrs. Scoville showed
nu more rigns of insanity than other
women in trouble with their hus
bands. Dr , Bridge , who had known
her twelve years , said some physicians
would pronounce her insane , but
ho would not. George L. Scovillo , son
