SBNATOH VAN WYOK has directed the nttention of cougresi to the feet tfyat n railroad ia being constructed through the Niobrara military reser vation in this atato without authority of law. Bub then the senator ought to know that railroad corporations are very frequently above all law. Mu. WIIEWDV , of Lincaalrr , has so- cared the good will of the U.

That depends whether the majority of the house are willing to go on record for a man who in aatisfaotory to the railroads. Tin : Philadelphia Prut hao once moro demonstrated that newspaper reporters can do valuable noruso in detecting and exposing crime.

Lee possession of the Arlington estate. The property was confiscated by tbe government in 1802 through a nuit brought to soauro unpaid taxes iff amounting to some $93. Justico'Mll. ler renders a sound opinion in whioh it IB hold that the government has no right to sleze property without a just return. The Arlington estate Ii been converted into a national ceme tery and the bonea of fourteen thous and Union soldiers Ho burled there. It cannot bo relinquished and turned over to private hand * , and the only thing lor congress to io is to have the property appraised and make an ap proprJation" to satisfy the claim. TilK national republican committee hai been mmmoned by the chairman Marshall Jewell , to meet at Washing ton on Wednesday , tbo 17th of Janu * iuy ( 'The'object of the meeting is to bur and takq action upon the report of f , .iub-qprnmittoo of which Score tmryof theNavy , Chandler la chair < m.n , whioh ' was appointed to prepare planfo'r calling the next national convention in aosordauoo with the tulo adopted by the Chicago con vention inJ880. This rule provided that the national republican com mlttcojbould prescribe u method or rules for the election of delegates to the national convention to bo hf.i in 1884 , announce the oaruo to the coun try and Isjao a call for the convention in conformity therewith. It further provides that such method or rules shall Include and secure to the several cpngrw'onal ' dfntrioU In the United , 8 tateu t ii t right to elect their own * delegato.i ' 0 the national convention. .Another object of the meeting should be to get rid of Star-route Dorsey M secretary of the committee L < before he iMnt to the penitentiary. PATRONIZE HOMEtWDUATRT The Omaha foundry and machine shops has temporarily closed its doors and suspended work. Mr. Richards , the principal owner of these shops , says ho bis been compelled to close his doors because many of our bnlld- era and capitalists send their orders for iron castings and steam machinery abroad , although their orders could havoboon filled hfero and their patronage - ago would have enabled the Omaha shops to compete ih pries with oist- orn foundries. Oar leading dualora make the eatno complaint regarding thu purchase of dry goods , / millinery , furniture and other commodities by the Omaha onobocraoy/who / do not think thcro is anything jjood enough for them in Omaha to adorn their persons or their pirloie , Men who have made every dollar they aru worth In Omaha , and who can only flonrish and groir richer by the pttrohago of Omaha , send to Pitttbar , St. Lonlfl , or Indianop nils for thu castings to ornament their stores , they go to Grand Rapid * , De troit , or Jlllwaukoo for the furniture that adorns their parlors and bad roomn , they go to Chicago for carpets , and their wives import their bonnets , cloak ? , and oven under garments from Now York , And yet Omaha is un > surpassed by any city of twice her population in the immense varied and costly otock of drygooda , furniture , oarpots , millinery and wares of every class. If the tabluo were turned and some of our Omaha snobocrats should find that their patrons are importing every thing they wear or consume they would feel outraged , It ia nafo to nay that Omaha has for years paid millions annually in tribute to eastern mer chants and faotorica which could and should have boon circulated at homo , and if they had been would have nwollod our population and contrib uted vastly to our growth and pros perity. When will thin nhort sighted and foolish policy sto | 1 When will our people learn that they cannot build up a great city without com merce andmiiiufacturoi ? Cm they ex pect our merchant ) and manufacturers to fhuriah If they persist in sending their money abroad for articles that cjuld bo puiohaucd in our elorcn or fnanufncturud in ouruhops ? Do thouo nabobs and nnoboor.Ms go abroad ba- cause they can eave n few dollnrj ? AB n rule they can purchase just as cheap in Omaha aa they o.in in Chicago nhen freight or oxprcssago are added. What inducements are offered to now Induatricn to locate In our midot if our people continuo to throw their trade in foreign hands , and to increase thu importance of other cities at the expense of their o.fn 1 What oncour- tgemont ia given to our merchants to carry a full line of goods on their nholvcs , or to import the latest novel ties in the fuco of the fact tint our Indicu prefer purchasing their dress goods and notions in Chicago and Now York for the cake of boasting that their wearing apparel came from Gousago'a or Ahoarns' . It is a false pride which values an article because it comes from olsowhoro. Our butinots mnn who nutter from this atato of affairs are often as much to blamo. Many handsome blocko liuvo been erected in Omaha during the past two years , n iw much of the materials unod iu their construc tion has been purchased in Omaha , In a largo majority of in- otancos the iron work has gone to St. Louis or Indianapolis , and the interior wood work and decorations have been done by contractors from Chicago , when Omaha workshops stood ready and willing to perform the work just us reasonably and often moro thoroughly. This is a subject where local prldo has a chance to show itself in a prac tical way. Banquets and resolutions are an excellent stimulant but liberal patronage of homo industries goes a good deal further toward stimulating the growth of a city. THEATRE NCI3ANOEB- Orntha is Buffering a good deal from the theatrical hog. The theatrical hog la the person who cares BO little for the comforts of others that ho per- iita in appearing at the opera house with his lady from fifteen minutes teA A half an hour after the opening of the performance , thereby preventing those who are in their seats on time from hearing what ia going on upon ( he stage. TUB BKE Is iu receipt of frequout complaints from subscribers about this nuisance. Ono correspon dent writes aa follows : "I was present at several of the per formances of the Boston Ideals during their la to engagement and invariably reached my seat befora the orchestra began the ovorluro. When the cur tain rang cp the house was not moro than three-quarters full. Ushers were running hither and thither , annoying those who were trying to catch an idea of the opura , and the front doors being open , blasts of oold air rushed through the theatre , filling the audiouco iu the back part of the house with influenza and indigestion. It wai precisely half past eight when the last man and woman arrived and settled down. And then the greater part of the first act was lost. Can't tbo press say something to put a stop to this nuUancel' All that the prots can do U to call attftntlon to the evil , which Is a grow ing one. The ladies are as much to blame as their escorts. Many of them only go to the opera house to show their clothes and to excite comment , and they have an idea that It Is the proper csper to srcep into a theatre after an audience has composed itself , and thereby croa'.o a sensation , If they heard a quarter of the unoompli- metary remarks made about them by sensible people , the "sensation" wouldn't ba quite so ogreoablo. The eastern is becoming n public nuisance. It is robbary , for it swindles a largo part of the audience , who have paid for their seato , out of from fifteen minutes to & half an hour of solid on- joymont. On a par with this class of people nro those who make a rush for their hats and cloaks baforo the cur- tiin rings down , and who ore half way to the door by the time the perform ance is concluded. If no other way ii found to abate tbeao nuisances the publication of a few names may bo found efficacious. As MIGHT hayo boon expected , the recent icquloltion through the United States court into the alleged fraudo iu the surveyor-genoral'iJ oflio of No- bratka has brought to light nothing moro than what was brought out by the Investigation in the legislature last opring. The present system cf public surveys la almost aa old as the government itzelf. It began witn the division of thu northwest territory in 1787 into whit bccamo the atatca of Indiana , Illinois and Michigan , and has continued without material change under democratic , whig and republican rule. The system has had its defects , and they have boon corrected from time to time. That there have boon flagrant abuses and outrageous frauds thoru is no doubt , but the pres ent ourvoyor general of Nebraska , Gen Smith , ia not responsible for them. Oongrois has fixed the rate which contractors , who hold cornmia- cions aa deputy surveyors , are to receive - ceivo for their wotk. The work ia in spected by competent uurvojora , and when certified to b/ them , is approv ed by the survoyor-goncrul. Ills agency bpglns by letliag the contract at the rate fixed by congrcaa for the work to bo done and it ends when ho given his approval to the contractor for the work don'o. The surveyor nural h&ndlon no inonoy except his own n 1ary tv.id the oxpunais of his ollioo. Thusu vouchers are forwarded to the general land tflha and that office neudn a voucher to ouo of the uudltora : of the treasury department and that department trnnumitn the pay directly to the con tractor. The latter may divide his profita with whomsoever ho BOCS fit in the uamo manner aa a contrastor for public works may diaburso his income aa best Buita him. If the work lian been honestly dorio the government is not de frauded. When the rates for public surveying woru fixed by congreoa , some years ago , the contractors were allowed a liberal margin , owing to the risk from Indian depredations and thu incidents and accidents usual in frontier life. Theao ranrgino bccamo a sonrco of corruption when the riskii of looaoD of clock and toama no longer existed. At its last session congress reduced the rates for public surveying , so that contractors w have no surplus to divide with any body , and the applications for survey ing contracts will not bo as numerous as they have boon. This change iu the system was brought about by the efifjrta of Senator Van Wyck , who was the first man in congress to call attention tbo glaring frauds perpe trated under the "deposit" system. The aim and object of the grand jury inquisition seems to have been to verify the charges made by the Omaha Jlet-aid last spring , that great frauds had been perpetrated in the surveyor general's office at Plaits- mouth , in which it wan confidently predicted Senator Van Wyok was moro or less Implicated. It was ex pected that sufficient proof would bo found to cause the indictment of Sur veyor General Smith. The outcome has vindicated both the senator and surveyor general. The building used aa the office of The Nugget , at Phelps , Neb. , and which was burned a few weeks ago , was also used as a court houso. Im mediately upon receipt of the news of the fire- THE OUAIU BBE charged fraud in the Pholpa county election and assarted that the republican can didates had boon fraudulently counted in , and the oonrt house burned to de stroy the records of the election. This seemed like a bold chaigo to make , but TUB BBE muatained it to bo true and said it had information from Pholpi which made it certain , Th < > bottom is completely knocked out of the mat. tor , however , by iho fact baiug do * volopod that the ppll books , ballots and canvass of the votes were saved from the fire. Now , if there is any suiplolon of fraud , the matter can be investigated. Judging from the out come of the ohsrgo of burning the court house to not rid of the election record ] , wo are inclined to think tint thu frauds iu Phelps county exist only in the mind of the imaginative editor of THE BEE. Seicard litporttr , THE BEE received ita information of the burning down of the Phelps coun ty court house and the destruction of the records from what it hadevery | reason to believe wu reliable authori ty , The same charge was also made by a number of papers along the Re publican valloywhich were lisned be fore THE BBK , containing the report , was printed It was not until A fnll week afterwards that it was suddenly discovered that the poll books , ballots and canvais of votes , which were re ported as lost , had been miraculously saved. So far as the existence of the notorious frauds ic Phjlps county , that will bo fully developed when the next legislature passes upon the con test from iho senatorial district of which that county forms a part. THE Scbujlor > S'un thinks that when the result of the election in the Third district is cxamiced that Turner's can vass wa&n't such a cido splitting farce after all. Its editor rises to remark : A great deal of fun was indulged in at the expanseof the Tnrnor conven lion because it was comprised of but seven delegates. The result , however , shows that each one of those delegates repreeonteu one thousand votes , while those in the other convention repre sented but cichty-threo votes each. Following out thli method of mathe matical calculation and it indlcnten that three moro delegates would have elected Mr. Turner.

The trouble with the Itepullican ii that it is a railroad organ "for revenue only. " The Latest Convert , Elkhorn Valley News "Oar Val" is the latest convert to anti-monopoly principles. Wo greatly fear , however , that it won't help Vitl's senatorial btom to "catch on. " A Decided Brunotto. Fremont Herald.

Those who accept theep favors without consideration know this but they ease thpir consciences by arguing that what can bo obtained from a railroad com pany la clear gain , not thinking of of juvora in return in the way of legis lation. Yut they find a pass qurto convenient , and after auhilo como to think the railroad companies not no bad after all.
