IT is not a good tirao to enter upon n EMi - jounioy unless it ia n bridal tour. TUB first week of the now year has boon a week of disasters and calamities. IT was moro profitable to bo a star route attorney than a alat route ex tractor. Ir was a Payne-full blow to Pondloton , but it laid Thurman , the old Roman , ns flat ns n pancake. AH LOKO ns Mrs. Villard hangs on to her firtj millions in government bonds , Mr. Villard is not going to the poor bouse. OVKII throe thousand bills are already introduced in the lower houao of con- rgosa. A bill for the relief of the public printer will next bo in order. KANHAS OITV wants to become the but ter depot of Missouri creameries. Kan sas City would bo a moro suitable place for a wagon grease and oleomargarine depot. PRESIDENT Aiixiiuu is an experienced angler. Ho haa thrown out two hooka , one baited for Mississippi catfish and the other for Illinois suckora in the Honne- pin canal. WILL the petroleum senator from Ohio now draw the bung out of his Standard barrel for the nomination of Governor Hoadloy to the presidency , or will ho become a candidate himself ? SENATOR VAM WVOK struck it rich when ho asked for the bills of the star route attorneys. Wo can now under stand why the Doraoy and Brady triala were dragged along at such a snail pace. ACOOUDJNO to the Chicago Zrl&unc the Nebraska senators have asked the presi dent to appoint Judge Dundy to the Cir cuit judgeship. The Nebraska senators had probably called on the president be fore they heard from Nebraska. HENRY B. PAYNB , the now Ohio sena tor , is sorenty-throo yoara old and it is gensrally undorstcod at Cincinnati that ho intends to resign before the end of F Governor Hoadloy's term in the interest t of John A. McLean , the proprietor of the Cincinnati Enquirer. That explains in some degree why McLean made such a W doaporato fight against Pondloton. WITH a population of over 250.000 , San Francisco invested § 5,261,081) ) in building improvements last year , the largest amount in a single twelve month since 1873. About uoventy per cent ef the amount expended , " represents fnuno structures. Omaha with her CO- ,000 people invested moro than two mil lions in builings lost year , not counting public Improvements. DOWN go the wages of the Pennsylva nia minors up goes the price of anthra cite coal. Orders \roro recently issued by the anthracite coal monopoly for half time work during the first three months of the year. This is calculated to give the minors the impression that the mar ket is overstocked , which is not true , and that the cpmpanica cannot afford to consider any question of an advance in wages , and also to shorten the supply seas as to hold up prices. It is said by those who are familiar with the conditions of the business that coal might bo profitably retailed in Philadelphia at throe dollars per ton , if mining were conducted under the operations of legitimate business methods , iuitoadof being controlled by a monopolizing combination. SUNDAV morning Murat ELalstoad and Deacon Richard Smith were in ooataoy when they picked up their "mammoth consolidated Oommeralal'Gazetle" ana read on the first page , in double loaded brevier , the following report of ( ho situa tion at Columbus : "Henry B. Payne can never bo Ohio's senator , and to-night the death knoll of his senatorial aspirations ais tions It read in the saddened faces of his inside managers ; faces that up to yesterday irat day glowed in proud expectancy that their venerable chieftain would succeed Mr. Pttiidletou. The terrible din of the Standard Oil obby hat died , and the : ied everl&bting chatter of his loud-mouthed ) retainers has given way to the advancing hosts of Pendloton , rosy in smiles , and M0 ible of the approaching victory over tU three-pronged combination of the fnqitir f , Turbine Wheels and Standard OH. " Monday uight Murat and the , dMooii'vrera thrown into the nbyaa of gloom and despair by dispatches an- Bouncing Payne's nomination , The political wU cre that represents the "jMHuaoUi eotttolidftted" at Columbui ia tttl fcwoBg tie THK CONDITION" OF TOADS. The old year closed with a very de cided depression in trade and a rather gloomy outlook for commercial and in dustrial enterprise in the near future. It is too early in the now year to form con clusive opinions regarding the course of trade and prospect for industrial activ ity. The largo number of failures , the heavy shrinkage in securities have moro or loss demoralized business men and capitalists at trade centres. Over-pro- dnction has closed many factories and compelled many others to reduce time and wages. That there is some possi bility of an early increase in the demand for goods is shown by a moro active in quiry , since the year opened , for various kinds of commodities. This has not yet resulted in much increase in the volume of business , but it indicates that pur chases are contemplated , and if there could bo an assurance that there would bo no further depreciation in val ues , business would soon ossumo a moro encouraging aspect. Prices are now very low for most lending articles of prime necessity. Sugar is cheaper than it haa boon for years ; coffee , although it has advanced largely from the extremely low prices current last summer , ia not high compared with former years ; pork and Jrrd are lower than a year ago ; the lower grades of flour are selling at moderate prices , and oven the higher grades- qualities bettor than were over produced until within a few years are not dear ; wheat , oats and barley are lower , while corn and rye are not much higher than a year ago. Of the raw materials iron and wool are lower , and cotton is not much higher , while all articles made from thorn are selling at largely reduced prices. Simi lar conditions exist regarding moat other commodities. This state of the markets suggests that prices are generally cheap enough for a aubatantial basis to work upon not for speculative ventures , which frequently practically ignore in trinsic values but for legitimate trading oporationa. There is , however , one redeeming fea ture in the retrospect of the past year , which mitigated the disasters , and ia the ground for hope of a moro speedy recu peration than would otherwise bo possi ble , and that is the strength of our finan cial system. Had there boon any doubt of the soundness of our paper money circu lation , or the solvency of the banks , there would hare boon a general panic , from which it would have taken several years to recover. There have boon a few failurps of banks , but probably not moro than the average in moro prosperous years wo have soon no comparative ata- tiatics upon this point and although many sound financial institutions have lost some money , their busi ness , generally speaking , has boon psofit- able , their earnings exceeding their losses , so that there is no impairment of their ability to pay dividonda ; many of the failures among the banks wore duo , not to any lack of business nor to losses occurring in legitimate banking opera tions , but to unfaithfulness on the part of officers or employes , who speculated with and lost the funds which they should have doomed as sacred. Every business man knows the important place a bank holds in the facilitation of the business and exchanges of the country , and the fact that they are sound and prosperous , and that the circulating medium is un questionably good under any circum stances , must exert an assuring and salu tary influence upon now business pro jects. STUPID SLANDK1U3. When the Hastings Gazette-Journal started its daily iaauo , it received from TUB BKE the most Watering compliments , and no paper in or out of the state made a moro tolling appeal in its behalf to the people of Hastings than did Tire BEE. In return for our generous treatment wo have received nothing but personal \ slander , malicious libel and unstinted abuse , Masquerading as an honest and independent republican paper , with anti-monopoly tendencies , the Gazette-Journal has mod ? its special Tir buainoaa to echo every contemptible slur and infamous falsehood that emanates in the monopoly proas against Tire BEI : and its editor. Its latest attempt to prejudice iiis dice the pcnplo of Hastings is the ro- isid publicatiun of a stupid canard concocted by a sot who publishes an lo blackmailing sheet in Omaha. It is nothing loss than the pretended oxpoauro of TUB BEK as the purchased organ of an alleged asphalt ring , which is said to have paid $3,000 for the BEE'S influence. This story is about as isc truthful as the charge which the Gazette- Journal published last summer , alleging that the editor of TUB BBB was , during ho war , an active rebel sympathizerwho took care to avoid the dangers of war 10y > staying at homo. Wo haven't teen fit to oven notice the impudent , absurd , and libellous innuendo made by the Omaha Shoo-fly , Ftof because in this community the stand of TUB BEB in opposing public improvement rings is unassailable , audits position with rogurd to paving is well understood. If the asphalt company had given $3,000 to Tire BEE , , the asphalt company would not bo foolish enough to lot any outsider know it , because it would bo throwing > its money away by advertising that it had bought this paper. If purchased , its influence in behalf of asphalt would be worthless , so soon at the fact became known. As puittttof f q Tun BKB : hod advocated grunito in preference to asphalt. Tun BEK publishing company , which owns forty-four foot on Furnam ( street , has signed for granite through its editor. On the very day that this charge was made by the Irresponsible shoot in Omaha , TUB BBB had an article call ing attention to the cracks in the asphalt pavement and stating that the cold weather would bo a fair teat of the durability of asphalt But the Hastings - ings paper , which is the organ of Con gressman Laird , imagines that it has cleared him from the Stinking Water job by publishing the asphalt libel on THE BEK. Even if it were all true it has no bearing on Laird's relations to the land-grabbing scheme. Right hero Jot us say further that TUB BEE has not malic iously invented charges against Mr. Laird. They were made by a govern ment official , in a high position , and that officer is not a Nebraskan nor in any way interested in our politics. TUB most sensible suggestion for the relief of Lieutenant Grooloy and his parly is made by George Konnan , of Washington. Mr. Konnan was one of the telegraphers employed by Captain Bulkloy in constructing the overland tcl- graph to Europe by way of Bohring straits and Siberia. Ho acquired much valuable experience about the Polar reg ions in Alaska and northern Siberia , and lias made many excellent auggeationa dur ing the search for the survivors of the Joannotto. Mr. Konnan now suggests the most effective and speedy means for the relief of the Grcoloy party , that the government offer a largo reward to the whalers which sail in Arctic waters for the rescue and safe transportation homo of Grcoloy and his men. This strikes us as very practical. The public have not much faith in the success of any govern- niont expedition that may bo sent aut , for reasons which it is not necessity to advert to. Experience in that line has not been such as to inspire confidence. But with the whalers it is different. They are hardy , well equipped and well aquainted with the region their search would take thorn into. They are numer ous , and with the hope of largo reward and the rivalry it would produce to earn it , there would bo ncarcoly a doubt but that aomo one of their vessels would find the explorers. TUB cow-boy has been successfully transplanted from the wild west to the far east : Providence , It , L , has n gang of "cow boys , " who are such n terror to people at the north end of the city that a woman beaten on the streets by some of them doesn't dare give their name to the police. ' * WEST OF THE MISSOURI. The crop of Annual Reviews has boc.n uncommonly largo throughout the west the present season. The growth and progress of the country during the past year certainly entitled it to the immor tality of print. The Salt Lake Tribune leads the list with a 12-pago 10-column review of the industries of Utah , Idaho and Montana , covering in detail the min eral camps and growing young cities of f each. Most of the articles were prepared - pared by exports in the different indus tries described , supported by a bewil dering array of statistics. The Denver Tribune and Rocky Mountain News dis played their usual enterprise in issuing double shoots with carefully prepared data of the growth of the centennial stato. The Cheyenne Sun followed with an assortment of mineral , agricultural and stock-raising utatistics that would almost appal a native. The Intcr- Mountain , of Butte , illustrated the at tractions of the "silver city" in a hand some holiday edition , elegantly printed on heavy paper , It is a most creditable work and deserves a wide circulation among all classes , The enterprise of the western press is a true indor to the growth of the conn- try. It can bo sot down as a modern truism that the papers of every town are the mirror of the town's condition. A pushing , growing town or city is certain to possess well printed and well edited newspapers. The reverse of this will produce a similar condition in the press. Though loss than a score of Nycars have passed since habitation was possible in the valleys and foothills of the Rocky mountains , the growth of the country lias boon no loss wonderful than the growth of the press. Take Denver , for instance. The newspapers of that city are equal to-thoao m eastern cities with double the population. Cheyenne , Laramie , Ogden , and Salt Lake City support two daily papers each , and their energy and friendly rivalry shows to a gratifying degree a steadily increasing patronage at their back. The press of Montana strongly roiloct the rapid growth of the country. Helena supports two dailies of opposite politics , and Butte and Benton likewise , In the former city the dailies weio forced to enlarge no lens than three Atmes the past year to supply the demands of advertisers and keep pace with the increased facilities for news. The press of Helena possess a peculiar as well as pecuniary advantage over their neighbors. The rivalry of St. Paul and Portland merchants for trade on the Northern Pacific makes advertising by both a necessity to secure a permanent footing. And they take to printers' ink like all shrewd business men , with a liberality that is highly commendable , In mountain-locked Idaho , every now strike in her Bold-mounted ribs as well as every scandal and shooting scrape , ia heralded in 8x12 dailies published in towns of loss than ono thousand popula tion. Some two months ago the town of Coldwoll was mapped out , by railroad men , on the Oregon Short Line , and yet the ink had hardly dried on the parch ment before a printing outfit was planted there and a paper iaauod. Instances of this kind could bo multiplied without limit. This shows the great work of the western press in the upbuilding of the country. No town or city can do with out ono or more ; no families can prosper without ono , and the business man who does not patronize thorn soon falls a prey to sheriffs and assignees. The recent mooting of the Cattle Growers' association , of Colorado , was productive of much good to that great and growing business , and furnished a variety of information as to its present extent and prospects. The number of cuttle in the state is estimated ai the enormous total of 2,000,000 , valued at § 00,000,000. The cattle are scattered over thirty-four counties , but the greater number are to bo found in Elbert , Weld , Bent , Las Animas and Arapahoe coun ties. There are seventeen round up dis tricts , whoso associations moot twice a year , and a state association which holds annual meetings. A largo _ number of the regulations of thcso associations have boon incorporated as laws into the statute , books of tha state , among them those providing for state cattle inspectors and round-up commissioners. Thcso of ficials are appointed by the governor , at the suggestion and recommendation of the state association. The board of state inspectors consists of five prominent cattle tlo mon , and the round-up commission ers consist of three from each district. Their duties are to sco to it that all the state laws are enforced and association rules obeyed in their several districts , and to have a general supervision of the subjects of round-ups , branding of calves and gathering and transporting bcof. The cattle in Colorado are owned by about 300 men who have in their em ployment perhaps three thousand herders to care for thorn. The wages of those mon average from § 35 to $10 per month , and board , and for foremen § 100 to $125 per month. The number of mon required to care for the herds varies in proportion according to the size of the herd. Ono of 20,000 would require about twenty- two hordors,10,000 about fifteen herders , 5,000 about ton herders , 2,500 about seven herders , and 1,000 about four herders , so that the larger herd entails less cxponso proportionately than the smaller ones. Tim total cost of herding 20,000 or upwards per head is 50 cents per year , 10,000 and upwards 75 cents , and a lesi number $1 per head. A number of improved | breeds are being - ing crossed with Texas stock , and the re sults are always satisfactory. These [ in clude the Poll Angus , Short horns and Galawnys. Whilst the increase in Texas is greater than it is in Colorado , the qual ity of beef raised in the state in superior and the cattle heavier than those of the former state. Although the sizes of the ranges in the state vary greatly , still it is given as a rule by the most experienced cattle mon that on average of twenty acres po head should bo retained for their maintenance. The Snake River valley promises to become the garden spot of Idaho , while the river bed is rich in gold and .other mineral. The experimental farming of last year showed the country to bo un usually productivo. A correspondent of The Salt Lake Tribune writes : Moro than 500 settlers have located ranches this year. All that has boon raised is wanted for seed , and that will not give us half enough. The valley . about Eagle Rock is well watered. Tlio Canal comc pany alone have made moro than sixty miles of waterway. In a distance of about ton miles above Eagle Rock the canal has four different outlets into the river. { lalf of this sixty miles of watere way has boon added the past year. The land is free open to all at government price and it is good ; 40 bushels of wheat , 00 to 70 of oats , to the acre. There is no bettor country for farming and none better for selling farm products. The Snake River gravel mines are simply immense ! Three men this year , working together , took out over § 4,000 each. Next year they _ will make $5,000 to the man. Everything is ready for them to shovel in the dirtnoxt spring , as soon as the gravel thaws. Last spring they had everything to prepare. . It was then an experiment ; it is now a certainty , Two largo raining companies have been organized , respectively in St. Paul and Chicago , to work mining claims some four miles above town. Individuals and ( groups of two or three have staked off claims for miles along the river bank. A lively stampede to the Toton mountain country is expected as soon as the snow disappears. Some ore was brought down from there last November , which assayed § 10,000 to the ton. The rock is manga nese , similar to that about Butto. There is now a strong probability that the noted Siberian traveler of Omaha will lese the laurel wreaths which the house of Romanoff had prepared and pickled for him. Less than a year ago there was a hope , amounting almost to a certainty , that Omaha , linked with his name and fast gathering fame , would fol low his trail through Alaska , to Barrows point , bridge the straits of Bohring , then up * the Amoor river and down the Anadir , across the barren steppes of Central Rus sia , until the shores of the Baltic would re-echo the familiar sound. But f ate and funds were fickle and the rare opportu nity was lost forever , maha's Mun- chauson , however , can live to read and write of the fame which others leas wor thy are now reaping. A party by the name of Johnson has evolved the gigan tic scheme to connect by rail not only Russia , but carry the iron links down through Alaska and California to Mexico. The capital is put at § 200,000,000 , divided into shares of § 10 each. The company propose to utilize the latent power of the Rocky mountains as a motive power , and dis pense entirely with locomotives. Each car will bo supplied with coils of heavy springs , which are wound up , BO to speak , by the descent of the car. Thus the momentum of the car is chocked by the resistance of the springs , and sufli- cient power is stored up to drive the wheels up the next incline , loss only the amount of loss by friction. Thus , like Na poleon and his army , passengers will go up the hill and then come down again , until they strike a Mexican greaser or a Russian boar. The town of Carbon , Wyoming , can boast of two strongly marked character istics the coal minor and the cowboy. The confinement of the former and the freedom of the latter generally balance on Sunday , when they promenade in gangs and envelope the town with cosmic dust But this is mainly duo to a super abundance of spirit , bodily and bottled , and disappears with the dawn of Mon- There are at present three mines in operation at Carbon , owned by the Union Pacific. The mines have boon opened less than three yean , and the workings are not yet very extensive. The mines employ nearly COO men and the output averages about 100 car loads per day. The cattle interest is second in import ance The country is broken and hilly , providing excellent protection , and ia said to bo unsurpassed as a winter rango. Nearly fifty herds of cattle , sheep and horses are grazed in that vicinity. The town contains about 1,000 people at tin's season of the year , and is growing steadi ly in wealth and population. THE LONG PINE REGION. A Sketch of One of the LlYellcst Towns in Northwest Nebraska , TlioVontlcrAil Qroxvtli of Brown County IliiHlncRi Keeping I'nco AVItli the Country. Correspondence of TUB Br.s. LONO PINK , Nob. , January 8. Your correspondent arrived in Long Pine Sun day morning and took quarters at the ig Pine house , a neat two story frame uildingcontainingsomosevcntcon rooms n nil , and presided over by H. J.

Long Pine is beautifully situated on 10 cast bank of the Long Pine creekhas population of about 300 , and is located i the geographical center of Brown ounty , haa n good newspaper , The Long * ino Journal , a bank , grocery , drug , dry oods , hardware , jewelry and furniture .ores , two blacksmith shops , two livery arns , two saloons , lumber yard , hotel , to. , Ac. There is great rivalry between liis town and the town above , Ainsworth. lut it appears to au uninterested ob- orver , that Ainsworth possesses the most o-ahcad spirit of the two , ' Three years ago Brown county was a art of the unorgani/.cd territory , and noccupicd government land ; but when lie Sioux City & Pacific railroad extend- d their line up the Elkhorn valley , the omcptcador followed , until now the ntirlo is dotted with frame and sod louses in every direction , and the coun- ry is pretty well settled up. The soil in his portion of the state is a dark , sandy oam , with much moro sand than is found n the southern and eastern part of the a tato. The citizens , although hot having ho vim and push , as compared to other owns , are intelligent , sober and indus rious , and all kinds of business are well oprcscntcd. The Long Pine crook is a most remark' able little stream , -which ilows by the own. Although it has its beginning ) nly five or six miles south of town , it courses by the village at the rate of seven miles an hour , is about twenty-five feet wide and three feet deep , and of the most soft spring water making ono of .ho finest mill-power streams the writer over saw. Rains or sudden thaws do lot cause it to overflow , and I am told it las never been known to freeze over. A > olt of natural timber , about one-fourth > f a milein vridth , extends along its > anks , affording ample fuel and fence ) osts. The principal trees are pine , red c icdar , oak , black walnut and elm. Wood I a delivered in town for $3 per cord , red cedar posts ( which are becoming scarce ) at fifteen cents each. Long ago this stream used to bo the favorite trapping e round for trappers , and there are still many beavers inhabiting it. The con struction of their dams , of which wo saw several , are really masterpieces of mechanism chanism , showing the wonderful in- jcnuity of this little animal. Above the railroad bridge are the wonderful seven springs , which would wo\l \ repay the cu riosity-seeker for his trouble and pains in visiting them. Mr. I. H. Skinner , one of the first set t ters , is still residing in his old-timo log 1 louse on the banks of the Pine , just west of town , and ho tolls of many quaint and lively experiences ho has had with t ; he redskins of long ago. Ho has dropped t ; ho rifle and trap , his old companions in r irma , and is now ono of the loading 1 lardwaro merchants of the town. The Niobrara river passes through the northern part of the county from west to cast , and Plum creek through the northwest , both being well timbered. Aa ono proceeds up the valley , however , the soil gets moro sandy , and in some places drifts like snow. The weather is generally very cold in the northern part of the state all reports to the contrary , and at this writing is ex tremely cold , and very little outdoor work is being done. There is still govern ment land to bo had here near town , and parties wishing information can got it by writing to Charles R. Glover , president of the Brown county bank , whom the writer knows to bo reliable and not apt to mislead any one , which is so often the case in getting information from now towns. THE BEE predominates hero among the Omaha papers , and , as usual , is vrell liked. The news agent down the road informed mo that ho sells twice the num ber of BKES that ho does of any other paper. COLONEL JAMES. About eighty of the 280 members of the Massachusetts legislature have expressed themselves to The lioston Advertiser in favor of applying the principles of civil service re form to state and city government. The other 200 are still silent , but they will soon discover that sitting astride the fence in this kind of weather isn't the easy , comfortable position which some inexperienced folks take it to bo.
