In placing John G , Carlisle in the speaker's chair of the national house of representatives the democratic party may have committed a great political blunder , but it is a blunder in the interest of good govermmomt. From the narrow niimided standpoint of the political trhuunor it may have been a fatal blunder to commit time democracy to a pronounced policy in favor of thrill revision on the eve of a presidential election , but it is a course that will at least commend the party to independent ont voters for manifesting the courage to differ with trio republican party. For twenty years or more the democracy have hind no issue to rally under , excepting a clamor to put the republicans out. I' vcry four years the national conventions were held by the democrats to uominato candi dates f'jr the presidency on a platform which the republicans had constructed four years before At this hour there is absolutely no diIrctonco between the democratic and republican parties , barring their past history , thsn that theme mo is in power and wants to rennin tlioro , and the otlior is out and watts toget there Both parties have straddled over vital iesuo , and have lacked the courage to cut loose and grapple with questions which the present generation is called upon to consider , Mr. Carlisle is not a straddler or a trimmer. Ho is an outspoken champion of revenue reform and a change of policy withl regard is tlm confederated monopolies , Ho is clean handed and utn trammeled by any ties that would hinder him from es impartial discharge of his duties towards evert' interest. His principal oppoioutt Randall , was a very able man , but lie was allied with all that is bad and dangerous in national logisla tion. Had ho been elected speaker , we could have looked for no legislation in the interests of the producers. Every loading committee would have been packed ' with pliant tools of corporate monopoly , from the Pacific railroad down to the Standard oil eom pauy' . Mr. Randall eutored the race very confident of success , with a power. ful backing of the moneyed interests , the support of Sam. Tilden , the silent influence of the church , and all the agencies and combinations that had ttvlce placed him in the speakers chair. He read his title clear and there is no doubt that lie would have been successful - ful , if lie had not overreached himself. The fact that many leading republican Impure and politicians were working hard for him aroused grave aupicion , and when his fool friends raised the "sec tional" issue against Carlisle because he hailed from Kentucky thby ruined Mr. Rmndall's chances of success. The southern members constitute a majority of time democratic house , and they naturally felt indignant when they wore told that they roust stand back and elect Randall to prevent an outcry front the republicans that the south had captured - tured the capitol. And when General Gordon made his appeal for Randall on the ground of policy , the southern congressman gressman only saw hs it the effort of a railroad manager to foist a monopolist itito the speaker's chair. Many of the members from time south who had come to Washington with the intention of supporting Itarmdall changed front be. cause they dared not go back to face their constituents who resented the eec- tional cry of Randall's friends as an iii- suit. to the south. And they were right. This hue and cry about southern su prenmacy is simply the talk of demagogues goguos , General Gordon , who was a confederate - federate brigadier cccupied a neat in the United states senate and made laws for time nation. lie was frequently consult. ed and advised with by republican presidents dents 'float was all right. Mahono was chief of stall'of Gus. Leo , and whoa he entered the senate ho was onmbraeed like the prodigal semi , i ongstroet , who was educated and reared at Weet Point , turn. od traitor in 1801 , led the codfederatea iu their onslaughts on Pope at huhl Run , invaded Pumaylvauia withl how's army and mowed dow'n thousande of union soldiers at Gettysburg. Longstreot held a commission under Grant , and holds time niost horativy oflce in Georgia now. Monby , , the guerilly chief , ruprosents this goyornnsont in China as its accredited consul gunoral. But when JnoGCarlisle who never raised his taut against time goverment was broug it forward for the position of speaker , the cry wont. forth that ho must atmid back because ho was irt and ritiagd j L Kentucky. 1Yould anybody havtm mined thatrobjection if it had buems Judge Ifarlan , of the supreno court , who wale appointed from Kun tuoky , It may have bcuu indiscreet for aouthbrt neniburs , to resunt'tho iuault to Eboirsuctiomi , but It was manly'aud hun orable , What ulso could they dui So faras , uoutboril .auprounaoy 1s concerned there would 'ho us , munch pbjoetton to a southern malt' ' foi gpcakpr twenty years heitcoas thuru/is / now.

They must array themselves with the people and against corporate aggression , or suffer ignomi Imbue defeat , CO Ptllth'SS Congress convcnos today. For time first time since 1871 ] the democrats control - trol time house by a largo majority. The election of Caruso as speaker indicates n very radical departure The old fogy democracy and the trimmers and ( mica. ridera have beam outflanked , and thud re forth danocrcy have taken time helm , \Vhat course they will i ° ' " ° it is ihilli' cult to predict. After the committees are announced it will be safer to fore. shadow time nrogrammo. It is sale to say , however , that Morrison , of Illinois , will be the leader of time house , lie is the Garfield of time demwcrcy , levelheaded - headed , broad minded , and deliberate. Aiaxt to Morrison , tire melt of largest hum. iluemice on the democratic side will ho ltanlall , Blackburn , Curtin and Cox. The ropublhcnuebeing largely in the majority , will uocessarily pursue tlm Fabian policy. Iceifer and ICo11y will be the utmost promh neat , It time republicans are well.advised they will give cordial support to everyy democratic nmeasuro that is just and popular. A minority does not always make capital by opposing everything right or wrong. The republicans hat o the senate , and time sumators will doubtless define the policy which the party is to pursue with regard to important legislation in both houses , Senator Edmmids will be the recognized leader of the party. Ho is intellectually head amid shoulders above any man in the present congress , mid if hits health permits he will lay out the work upon which the republican party can appeal to the country for mother lease of power. Time questions that will ho uppermost before the present congress are tarifl'revision , revenue reform , postal telegraphy , regulation of inter state corn- memo , and disposal of the surplus in the national treasury. Upon these vital issues Nebraska will be heard from in the somata at least , and we should not bo rurprised in the house also. With another presidential election before us it is but natural that the proceedings of congress will be watched by the people with more than ordinary interest. Gr Nna.ti. RomEcmt.tNs who , by the way , has become ashrewd politician , proposes to offer the following proposition to amend the constitution , to the house of representatives : Amendment 1C , section 1-Polygamy , be. ing incompatible with our civilization , k fore cr prohibited In the United States and all pieta ; under its jurisdiction. Section -Congress shall have grower to enforce - force this by approiriate , legislation This is evidently a move on the part of General Rosecrans to put the ddmo- cracy on record as right on the polygamy question. The Springfield Republican' regards this proposed amendment as a pope's bull against the comet. The journal - nal in question says : This is a sign of the growing realization - tion that polygamy is a dangerous run. ping sore of the national life , but such a constitutional amendment will be a good deal like a party resolution , proper enough in its way , but settling nothing. When we fail to enforce the Edmunds law , the chance of stamping out polyga my by amending the constitution ra not 80 promising as it might be. Still , such an nmendrnont will put the nation on record - cord , it would block the way of any scheme to adnut Utah as a state , and it might be a step toward those sterner measures that some people have begun to look upon as a final necessity of the situation. F1iANS IIATTON'il Washington paper , which has been the organ of the Virginia readjustere , makes the following an touncemumt : "The attitude of General Mahone in the senate toward time ropub Bean party during time past two years has beeti that of a friendly ally. Tithe will remain unchanged , and his colleague , Senator Itiddiobo ger , will occupy a similar lar position. " This menus simply that Mahone and Riddleborger will continuo as friendly allies as long as they came ex change republhcau patrorago and tratlic hum postuidces amid revenue positions.

" -I see that Charley Goodrich gave you a little chapter of history concerning the street railway last week , " said Mr. Po loton to Tar Ilru Man About Town. " 1 noticed dint ho was wrom in his dates. Ho said timat the act chartering the street railway was passed in 1861 or 1862. The fact is it was not passed urm- til February 18 , 1867. It was one of the very last acts of time last territorial logic. laturo. I only mention this fact to allow how easily persons can make nmistakes in the matter of dates ahem they depend upon their memory. You ought to correct - rect Mr. Goodrich's statement , because it is often the case that such paragraphs are made use of by different writers , mid in time they are regarded am correct , and thus mistakes creep Into our history. To satisfy myself et this point 1 looked up the records concerning the street railway charter. " "Who were incorporators of the company ? " Mr. Poppleton was asked , "Trey wore Alfred Burley , Ezra Millard , George W. Yrost.Joel T. Grifihn , J. W. Paddock , C. S. Chase , Geo. M. O'Brien , , J. It. Meredith , R. A Bird , E. 11 , Chau dler , John McCormick , Augustus Kountze , lVnm. Ruth , ,1 Frank Coltman , A. J. Hanscom and David Butler. Of these men not one has now any interest in the street railway.

"In order to learn time niovo meats of another company it aent for a granger , named Church Ilowe , from Nemaha county , to come to Omaha and pump John D. Howe , attorney of time Chicago , Minneapolis , St , Paul 8 ; Omaha road , The result was that John D. played quite a joke on the unsuepect- hug Church. In answer to an inquiry as to the alleged amicable settlement of the Belt railway controversy , Mr. John D Howe said to the other Rowe , 'There will be no 1 , elt railway track in the morning , but don't give me away. ' Ten minutes later Church Ilowe reported this statement at headquarters , and an injt ncti'on was cued out , and the guards along the Belt railway track were doubled. Two hours later , John D. Howe , who had leaaned the result of his mischievous stateruont , met Church , and witim a sober face asked him , 'You haven't given me away on that matter , have ? ' 'Oh not not ' you , certainly , replied - plied time honest granger , who next morning learned that he had been sold. Church { however , claims that it was really the intention of the Chicago , Minneapolis - neapolis , St. Paul S Omaha folka to tear up the Belt railway track , and that it was his information tlmat chochmated the movement. Ho says that John D when he found that he had been beaten , tried to saddle the joke on him. But 1 know John D ; too well to believe that ho would give away anything to Church Ilowe. He is too well acquainted with Church.

It is probable that the secretary - tary of the interior will approve the untmcndation of the commtissiouer of the geuernl land of ice governing the repeal of the law referred to. Whion the sub. jest comes up in congress the land oflco will furnish a great deal of interesting information - formation on the subject. The practical working of the pre enmp thou law and the timber culture act has been investigated during the past few months by spee'al agents of the interior department. Special Agent Bickford , who has lcen on duty in the Ilisnmarck land district , in Dakota , during the past six umonthe , says that probably one-half of the public lands disposed of lit any one year are irregularly taken , Time muds thus obtained fall into time lends of the settlers , but they are obliged to pay sweat mono } m order to get them , mid this puts the poor met at a dismtdvantgo and retards sottlenient , "I have found most averywlore , " says Bickford , "surprising lathy in meeting time coudithons required of settlers aid Otis ar'omed largely due to the mieinfor- mation and bad advice from attorneys. So little regard is paid to tine legal ro- quirenents that in my belief a large portion - tion of the townships in the Bismarck districts , which according to land ollice plate , are fully settled , but whore the lands brave not passed out of first hands have , . on the average , not exceeding fifteen actual settlers each.

" The wealthi of precious , rnotala which are hidden beneath the plains and foothills - hills of Wyoming is always n fruitful theme for time newspapers of the fodder- land. The hope of undiscovered Leadville is ever before 'tita'n , , and they never tire of penetrating the possibilities of the future. Geologist Bailey , the Aughey of the Rockies , has jpstconclud- ed a laborious essay et the wealth al. ready uncovered , and figures oub the re suit as follows : "The deposits' of gold arid silver from Wyoming at the various United States mints and assay offices from their organization to December 31 , 1881 , was : Gold , $7201681,22 ; , silver , $11,809,2J ; adding the production of 1882 , the total amount positively known is $ 748,101.17.
