TIIK senatorial fight in New Hampshire js becoming decidedly interesting. Cot'.vcnMA.v ' HAHI-AI.I , has boon niniHii- ally quiet this season. He will prob ably make himself heard lifter the first of July. TIIKHK was n good deal of undiluted bourbon turned loose in Ohio yesterday , with.ludgo Jloadley at the head of the procession , TIIK next time General Crook takes the warpath after Apache cutthroats ho ought to remember that a dead Indian is a good Indian. HUOOKLY.V'H new directory indicates n gain of 45,000 inhabitant * during the past year , in spite of the handicap of Tnl- luadgo's sermon. WHAT has become of the proposed market house ? If wo can't build it on Jefferson square let us have n market 'house ' wherever it can bo built. CROOK has brought a white elephant from the Mexican jungle , and Uncle Sam is in a quandary what to do with him. Why can't those Apaches be delivered to Barmim or Buffalo IiillJ has a pen picture of General Crook in which ho described him as long , lank and lean. Oath's acquaintance with the general is probably about on intimate ns with a number of other dignitaries about whom ho writes so familiarly. WK shall presently see whether the board of equalization is disposed U assess Nebraska railroads according tt their known value or whether they wil continue the farce of allowing nxilroiu property to evade its just share of tit burden of taxation. AI.TIIOUOK nominated by n republica caucus , Senator Rollins , of Now tlnmii shire , is still on the ragged edge of in certainty in the joint session of the io ; . isiature.

Meantime tl war department is supplying rations f three hundred hungry Chiricalmuas on t railroad , who don't care whether ndic keeps or not , HO long as the Indian mi and bacon holds out. THOSK snail pace railroad trniim acn the continent will soon bo na inucli thing of the past as the overland ntji coach. The fast train Hchedulo of t Union Pacific will bo matched by f trains over the Burlington andllio Gran route to Denver and Ogdon. It is n foreshadowo'd that the latter roads T soon put a second through train on I line between Chicago and Ogden , wh may compel the Union Pacific to incre the speed of the day express that lea Omaha nt noon. The route across plains' certainly will afford n splen field for lightning travel. ANOTHER movement is to be made thopension agents this winter to sec an ( increase in pensions. When it is ken into consideration that about f < per cent of our national oxponditi this year consists in pension pnyuu this information is extremely interest ! The last arrcarsbill wa& log-rolled thro congress just before a presidential t tion , when neither party dared to com itself against it through fear of losing soldier vote the coming campaign. ' same tactics are to be tried once won It will bo a very doubtful exporin this time. No one questions that disa soldiers deserve pensions and ough got them , and thct their widows must be permitted to suffer. But the pen dodge has been worked to such a j tluvt every volunteer who ban contra the rheumatism fifteen years after discharge , and who falls into the hi of the pension sharks , is an applicant the public bounty. It is un insult to old soldiers of the republic to sup that they are the importunate beg tlwt these blood-suckers would n them out to bo. Wo are > .ow paying'n hundred millioi dollars a year on the pension aceci Tliat is ft very largo sum , but every of it must be raised from taxes lovio an overtaxed people. The party tries to tind another peg to hang pent < m.i likely to lose more votes tha will gain by the attempt. There limit beyond which the mine of pi gullibility cannot bo worked , even vote-making as iU object. nonai : rs / ' . i TJHO r/s.ir , Sincu the dny when the energetic worl of Thoinns L. ilntnes , seconded hy Jnmc A. ( Inrficld , resulted in the finding of in dictincnts ixgainst the gang of stnr routt jdhhcra , Stephen \V. Dorsey haa heci pnthctically appealing to his party patri otism in order to cicate republican syin jwitJiy for hiinself in his disgrncc. / | ) atriotisin which contents itself will using party as n meant for personal ag grandix.einent is very little credit to tin possessor and loss nso to the party itself , Men who howl loudly for the old llajj while thinking only of an appropriation have no right to ( latter themselves over their loyalty to the government , and rnfl- cals who successfully pull the wires of n political organiuition to increase their own influence and mask their private in famies deserve no sympathy from party leaders when they are tripped tip hy jus tice and receive the exposure nnd disgrace which they deserve. Uorsey and Urndy were undoubtedly of great assistance to the republican leaders in carrying the lust national elec tion. Dorsoy was a man of wide political experience. He know that platforms and speeches could not he depended upon t < i win votes unless backed by a good work ing organization. As secretary of the national republican committee , ho was brought into intimate rolatioimhip with influential republicans from every state in the union , and he played his cards well to increase a personal influence which he hoped , would stand him in good stead if his conspiracy to rob the treasury over canii * to light. Mr. Dorsoj was a howling patriot. Ho gloried in republican principles and he placed every confidence in republican promises , especially those which ho bc- lievcd bore some reference to lii.s own re demption. Ho claims that he npent § ll,000 ! out of his own pocket from pure patriotism for republican BUCCOSS , chiefly in Indiana and Ohio , nnd no one will doubt the assertion who watched the conduct of the campaign in those states. Mr. Dorsoy was a patriot from expedi ency and a plunderer from principle. It if decidedly" cheeky in him at this late day , when ho has done more than any OIK man to imperil republican supremacy tr plead his party services as proof "of tin Hplondid ingratitude of dishonest power The scandal of the star route , in whicl Stephen W. Dorsoy was the priim mover nnd head center , .has knockei more party patriotism out of hundreds o republican voters than wan over workec up by nil the Brndya and Dorsoys , nni others of the disreputable gang who grov Tat from the treasury. ASJ'JfA LT AM ) This paper has been a steady an a consistent advocate of granite as tli best and in the end the cheapest of a paving materials , It took this positio before the board of public works was en ated nnd n paving tax authorized. ] fought for the granite blocks on Tent street , nnd has urged the adoption ( that material on ovury heavily travele street in Omaha. The ollort , now heir made by the Jlcpubllcan to divert pul lie attention from its recent nmlicioi and uncalled for attacks upon anoth paving material by alleging that Tl HIH has become the organ of the asplu contractors , will mislead no intellige reader. Our views oh the superiority granite blocks over any mid every oth malarial have undergone no change , m no amount of patronage from asplu contractors is liable to change it. \\'o have always recognized that , ne to granite , sheet asphalt laid on concn is an excellent pavement for streets which the tratlic is light. For RU streets it is better than any other knot material , if laid down under favoral conditions. Everybody knows that tl has boon an unusually stormy season , a contractors both for stone and nsph pavements have suffered serious drum nnd great inconvenience. To prunoui against any pavement because an mil ished section damaged by heavy llo < appears to u disadvantage , would bo i fair as well no senseless. Wo mi ; as well condemn brick M n building material because the foun ie tion of several brick blocks Buffered m id or less by the siimo terrific rain stoi Or wo might pronounce against the nst brick entirely because stone is n m i.y . durable material for foundations.

TIIK United States circuit court out Colorado has rendered n decision tha on insurance policy issued but not paid hnt holds the insurer liable for any loss ans may accrue to the property insured , it court holds that the promise of the pc 9 U holder to pay the premium was n f dia nnd sufliciont consideration nnd laid d ith the principles ns follows ; "It is n taincd as a souud and wholesome ml good conduct and fair dcnhng that upoi a promise of indemnity , supiwrted b ; any consideration whatever , the eompnii ; shall be bound , whatever may \ia \ con cealed in a labyrinth of conditions am exceptions , to defeat its operation.

" ' . ixi'itfxirK cnucit A writer in the current issue of tin A r//i Amtrictm Jlcvlnv linmllfcn tin causes of the decline in church attcn < 3nnci without gloves and declares that men ol small or moderate means and a fair nlian of pride cannot afford the expense. Thej would willingly , remarks the writer , JMJ in the form of pew rent n rcnsonahh compensation for such benefit as thxy could get , but 'pew rent is thi smallest part of the demand ! made upon the pocket of tlu average churchgoer. From the moi ment that they enter a church society they find themselves subjected to con stunt solicitation fr/ra hundred purpose : that have no connection with thoii reasons for wishing tr > gi > to church , "Perhaps the church which they wisl to attend , through n > policy which thej had no part in making , : uul which thoj would never have approved , is involved in debt , and they nro naked to help il out of foolish bankruptcy. They arc asked to mihscriho for foreign missions , though doubting the- benefit to distant mvviiges of the 8i > worth of teaching which it costs 8100 to give them. They aru called upon to contribute to various chnritublu enternmes and entertain ments not called upon simply , but per- mstontly urged , wliun they have thoii own pcrmnnl notions about charitable aid , in accordance with which they do in private what they can afford or feel dis posed to do. Phu church to-day is r beggar : not humble and meek in it ; demands , but gr dy , ] > crsiHtont anil ulmost impudent. Our seeker for sus tenance nnd iimjiiration for his bettei nature finds himself in a congrcgatior of daughters o ( the horso-lcoch , evoi crying 'Give , givu.1' and ho floes in weari ness nnd disgiut from their importu nitics. " Again his pride nnd self-respect nr hurt if he tiiuis it impossible to head tlu subscription lists nnd lend off in the col lection. Hi social position is guagcd b ; his ability to contribute , nnd if his privat moans cannot stand the pressure lut i made to fuel that ho is a nobody in ill church. There is some truth nnd some exaggei ntion in this picture. The wealthy me in many of our churches contribute tli least. The incessant dropping < festivals and entertainments that wei awuy the pookotbookn of thu oma salaried clerk fallsless hcavil upon themA good rotin Hubscription has its appropriate effect fr several years nnd economical hedging ca bo indulged in the meantime. It migl bo said , too , that the general idea i.s tli ! churches are .something more than mo : adjuncts to society , and that n congrog tion where wealth is the prerequisite respect ought to bo left severely nlono 1 all but the wealthy. There is a singul contradiction in singing about "free si vntion" and making life miserable to i whoso incomes do not enable them contribute to orphan asylums , foundlii hospitals , foreign missions and magni cent piles of brick and mortar. Still t conclusion of the writer , that "if t t modern Christian church is the gunrdi of the gateway to heaven , it is easier f a whole caravan of camels to thread t 1'ostern of a needle's eye than for a pi man to make his way through the form nblo barrier , " is hardly warranted by t facts. d TIIK ( .

" The force of this-m-actical illustratioix of the folly of paying such an exhorbitaut price for the use rf money was such-that the merchant determined never to borrow at such ruinous rates , and ho frequently used to say tlint notliing could have so fully convmcod ; him as this rather hu morous proposal by Mr. Cooper.

Loult It A conviction in the star route trials has hardly been expected. The clmr.ictor of the jury hasnot bo n such as towarrant any great confidence in their ( Utility to divine the rnitlt , and in their virtue should the fcTiith ajqiear very ] ) lr.in. The mode of trcd has Inion so extraordinary , and over } ' atej } liia ; been so dilatory , and all has beeuso- complex , that for months conviction lias seemed improbable. Men bent on reaching just ends andioxecuting justice would' not have dallied : along as the court has > in. this trial. A\ state trial which really means , anything' is never conducted in. this way. Tlio- length of the speeches , was , to the last degree , ab surd. But an acquittal was hardly ex- ncctcd. Tito dufuiiJraJs had been atljudged moriily guilty by the country with a uiiMiimity rarely witnessed , in any case. Tlusro was not r doubt iu the minds of anybody of a con < spiracy h > rob the government. It was qnito generally expected , therefore , thai there would bo a failure wii the part ol the jury to agree , A verdict of acquit tal is for these reasons something of i surprise. Inero are those , however , who thinV the trial has not been entirely in vain This opinion has an insufficient basis The result will rather confirm every pec nlator and treasury parasite and profes sional contaactor and straw-bidder in tin belief that criminal responsibility cai never bo fixed on him , and the whol body of this gentry will rest secure tha they may conspire with impunity Charges of this natimt , it will bo assume * ' cannot bo legally proven. If there is any possible good to resu1 from this trial it must bo looked for i 1 the fact that the people will now see tlir such abuses can only bo avoided and tli treasury protected by calling to the ex < cutivo branch of the government hones and able men. The star-route fraw were the fruit of the imbecile administr : tion of president , Hayea.

And yet , uboi any man in the government , it was h business to have known the truth and h patriotic duty to have spoken it. Tl mediocre figurehead , Mr. Keys of Tei ncsseo , at the head of the postollico d partment , was fitted for a village pea master.
