Ikm 463 , Omaha N k THE greenback labor party propose to put a prcsidontiaHickot in the field. The convention will bo hold on the 28th of liny , at Indianapolis. TIIK democrats are wondering whether Dr. Miller intends to use his European tour as a channel through which to reach the national democratic convention. Tin : farmers' institute at Kearney was tnado conspicuous by the absence of farmers , and the presence of politicians with the title of "professor" prefixed to their names. CHINESE QOHDON , in destroying the records of debt in Khartoum"mado him self popular with the poor. It iu safe to say that hereafter ho will always have the poor with him. CHINESE GORDON contemplates an in terview with El Mahdi. General Gordon no doubt proposes to "fix" him with money. It will not bo the first time that British gold has been uiod t ) soothe the savage breast. THE Chicago News is responsible for the statement that John 0. Now is said to resemble Senator Mnndorson , of Ne braska , in his personal appearance and in his penchant for a good time on the dead quiet. VON EISENDEOKEU , the Gorman minister tor at Washington , says that the state ment made by Prince Bismarck relative to the Laskor resolution was just such a one as ho supposed would bo made. Of course V > n Eisendockor could not bo expected to siy anything else. THE trouble with Mr. Finorty in con gress is that ho desires to carry his fool ing against Great Britain to extremes. Ho would rather have an American crow starve and frqexa in the Arctic regions than accept any favor from Great Britain. Ho seems to forgot that ho is a representative of the United Status. CHEAT BRITAIN has done the handsome thing iu presenting to the United States the steamer "Alert , " to bo employed in the proposed Grcoloy expedition. This is a substantial recognition of the ser vices of American seamen in rescuing and returning the English steamer ' 'Res elute , " which had been abandoned in the Arctic seas. IF there- over was a farce in the coun cil chamber it was when the council was I * . f'l called to consider Marshal Outline's now rules and regulations for ttio government of the polico. It is a pretty late day for Mr. Guthrie , after ho has boon in oflice ten months , to make now rules for the policeand especially when it is notorious that the marshal has winked at the flag rant violations of state and city law , ami nllows thioroi , thuge , gamblers , and. c fidonco frauds to ply their vocations uu dor Ins very noso. How will the regula tions regulate the police when the laws do not regulate the chief of police ? THOSE newspapers who are attempting to bo funny by holding Thomas Porter house Ouhiltroo as solely responsible for the Liukor resolution and the consequent quent affront oflorcd to the United States by Bismarck , evidently don't know whal they are talking about. It is true tha Ochiltreo otluro'l the resolution , but con gress unanimously adopted it , thoreb ; taking it out of the hands of Ochiltrco , and making it a matter of its own , TJi resolution was the sentiment of congress and was transmitted to the Germa reicheta'j , of which Laskor was a : honored member. It is not a controversy between Ochiltreo and Bismarck , bu between the American congress and Bis marck. ' WHEN the Fornam street propert owners petitioned for granite pavcmen they wanted granite 'pavement and no eandstone. Why should any member of the public works try to , override the ex press will of the property owners ? Are wo to be put to the expense of another injunction suit to prevent the outrage ? The gutters of Farnam street are part of the pavement , and will bo worn more then any part of the street. They ought to bo paved with more durable material than the centre of the sheet , because heavy wagons and trucks will back up against the sidewalk to load and unload , and the water running down the gutters has the tendency to decom pose stone pavement * . The gutter * on Tenth street are paved with limestone , but oveiybody knows that they will not last. The only reason why they were allow * * ! to remain was became ( lie gutter * aad eurblog .had been put down before JSiouz Fall * ten0 had ever been brought > | to Owlia , and the property had been for tV l UariBK and curbing. I ' r TltK NKW MEXICAN LAND JlTffO. When Stephen W. Dowcy located and , ockcd n cattle ranch in Now Mexico out f the proceeds of the star-route , steal a rent ring was formed that had for its bjcct the crooked acquisition of vast stntei held under Spanish and Mexican s. Next to Dorsoy the most im- orlnnt member of the now Mexican Mid ring was the surveyor-general , Henry' M. Atkinson , whoso position undo him not only useful , but indis- onsablo. This combination of land- iarks and speculators has boon oporat- ng successfully in Now Mexico for oars , and each of thorn has acquired ox- cnsivo land and mining interests. Dorsoy's rucont visit to Washington WAS not , as surmised , a political mission , ut in answer to an urgent summons 'rom members of the ring who are tightened at the prospect of the passage f a bill recently passed by the scjmto. 'his ' bill , introduced by Senator Edmunds , i a move intended to effect a prompt and quitablo settlement of land claims , old under Spanish and American titles n the territory coded under the treaty f Gandaloupo Hidalgo. The csson ial features of the bill are that all claim- , nl3 shall within three years after the nking effect of the act present their roofs and claims to the courts all proper ndiati titles shall bo respected ; no claim tall bo allowed for any land the right to trhich hns been hitherto lawfully decided congress ; no claim shall bo allowed or more than cloven square leagues of and ( about 48,000 ncresnor fora greater uantity than was authorized by the re pcctivo laws of Spain and Mexico ap licpblo to the claim. It diminishes also io present extraordinary powers and osponsibilitioa vested in the survoyor- enoral. It provides that all mineral ights in land grants shall bo reserved to ho government. As a matter of course uch a hill moots the opposition of a pow- irful lobby , which will try to kill it in the ouso. It is hardly credible to what desperate icans and methods the Now Moxi- an land ring has resorted m its robberies. They have manufac- urcd bogus titles , garbled public records , , nd enlarged claims by fraudulent sur > eys. Such lands as have boon loft to 0 surveyed as government domain have mly been thrown open for settlement f tor those water and timber rights which ako them valuable have been secured n the ring that oncirclrs the Santa Fo and ollico , The landrohbora are fighting the Ed uunds bill with all the tact and cunning hich they can command. No effort is ioing spared to defeat the bill in its pas ago through the house , so hat everything would bo loft 1 the present unsettled condition. , iko the railroad monopolists , they sock o postpone the day of reckoning by that nest convenient device , a commission , rhich they expect to pack with their as- ociatos und stool-pigeons. Already they ro urqing as ono of the proposed com tiitsionors Henry M. Atkinson , who is o notoriously in luaguo with Dnrsey and ompany. A commission made up of uch ringaters would give the Now Mox' an riug a now lease of lifo and power , iut wn doubt whether the present coiv ross can bo decoyed into the commission- trap , and it is very questionable whether the president and Secretary Tel- or would play into their hands by up- lointing them. ONE of the state senators of Virginia laving proponed that a rosotvition shall bo sot apart for the colored people , the Now York Journal asks why this dis crimination should bo made in favor o : the black race against native white Amor icaus. "Why not u reservation for the laitcr ? " asks the Journal. "Immigra1 tion is pouring in on us BO rapidly from all quarters of the world that Americans nay bo compelled in the not distan future to look out for a small cornc where tht-y can bo all alone. English lards are buying cattle ranches by th hundreds of thousand acres in the west Gorman barons are thicker than black berries in Texas. What chance ii the : " for Americans against so great a competition tition ? Wo commend the question t < congress. " WHY does Mr. Joseph Barker pertis in his attempts to foist aandstono as i paving material upon our streets againsi the known will of the property owners Ho knowa that seven-eighths of the mo : who are to pay for the pavement have n faith in its durability and do not desire ! to bo used as paving material , Wha right has Mr. Barker to ignore the wis of the tax payers ? Can there bo any other inference from his conduct than that ho is a silent partner of the sand stone ring and has a personal in noy in terest in selling that material ? COUNCILMAN LKEDBII objects to ono of the proposed rules tor the government of the police , which prohibit * a policeman from going into a saloon unless in the discharge of his duty. Mr. Loodor says ho wonts a policeman to have the right to go into a saloon to take a drink when hi wishes to. But suppose a policeman wanted to go into several saloons and take two or three drinks in each of them ? Mr , Leoder may bo making capital with the police , but the question is , do the saloon men want to entertain the police whenever they got dry. IUIUIOAU corjioratisns have their tri als and tribulations as well as individu als , The Burlington has just been tried and found guilty of violating the Missouri - souri river agreement , by soiling two second-class tickets at jess than regular rate * . The arbitrators imposed u penally of 977.44. The Burlington immediately paid the fine , and we suppose tha , the irbltrators and their friends thereupon djournod to the nearest bur and judi- iously invested the inonoy in drinks and igara. IT would bo useless to ask Mr. Joseph Jarkor to resign from the board of pub- o works. Ho wont into the board with , ho solo object of making money , and ivor since ho has ocen in the board his : onduct shows that ho nas an eye to the nain chance. It is not always : safe for AX-paycrs in places of responsibility and , rust. They may not bo cheap but they , ro more grasping and unscrupulous when they do got their hand into the loblic crib. OT1IKR LANDS TUAN OVHS. Just now the situation in Egypt is the ,11 absorbing topic in England. The ox- edition for the relief of Tokar had boon a.dly organized by General Wolsoloy when the announcement is made that Tokar has capitulated. The excitement n London over this fresh disaster is in tense. At the fall f Sinkat only two men , nd fifty women escaped from the general massacre of the garrison and residents. A.t Tokar it is believed that the garrison was spared , that being ono of the condi- ions of surrender. The campaign plan f General Wolsoloy contemplated the oncentration of all the available forces , t Suakim on February 28th , and the dvanco movement for the relief of Tear - : ar was to have boon begun about the th of March. Admiral Hewitt , who was in command at Suakim , has boon Tying to negotiate with the sheikhs , sup ed to bo friendly , on the shores of the Red sea to the south of Trinkitat , but all is advances have boon ropollcd. Since lie fall of Sinkat all the Arabsnro hasten ng to array themselves under the stand , rd of Osman Digna , the leader of the obol forces , which numbered fully 0,000 men. This force it was that compelled lie surrender of Tokar. Of course the 'all of Tokar complicates the situation cry much , and is liable to seriously em larrass General Gordon at Khartoum. The vote by which the house of com mons in form oxprosscd its uiabated con donee in the Gladstone ministry was a ignal triumph for the liberal party. The ovornmont was sustained by the hand- omo majority of 40 in the unusually argo division of 573 , nine-tenths of the nonibors of the house of commons. The case was the strongest which has been or : ould have boon made against the gov rrmcnt since it was formed. There as , without doubt , been blunder- jig in Egypt , and the blundering , as been followed by disaster and .isgraco. It is true that the Egyptian iolicy of the government , if it has not icon the policy of the nation , haa been -ho policy of the house of commons which ias bnon called upon to condemn it. At iVHry stop parliament was taken into the onfidoiico of the government , and every iop parliament approved before it was taken. But it is of the essence of con- iitutional government , as the same is un derstood and practiced in Great Britain , hat the assoni of a man or of a logisla uro to an act does not so far make it the , ct of the asienter as to estop him from ensuring it if it turn out badly. Apart 'rom the strength of tno case the opposi tion had adventitious aids which they are not likely to possess again. The govern- nent has boon in oflico long enough to inako people wish for a chnngo for the sake of change. Its Egyptian policy has turned out ill ; it Irish policy has not turned out very well ; it has no measures to bring forward which stiongly enlist the sympathies of the Brit ish public. Gratifying as this rouull must be and should bo to Mr. Gladstone t does not overcome the strength of the case against his government , nor the fact that its Egyptian policy haa boon in the nature of a tragical farce. The vote was not so much a vote of confidence in Mr. Gladstone as of want of confidence in Mr. Gladstone's adversaries. Ono member who took part in the debate expressed what wiia no doubt the fooling of the house in saying that , whatever the faults of the iovornmont had been , they had not boon such as to warrant tlu house in giving a ' 'blank chock" to Lori Salisbury. This was a snub of poor Sir Stafford Northcoto's pretensions to being ing regarded as the conservative leader , which was the moro severe f rbeing vorj possibly unintended and unconscious In point of fact the conservatives have no leader whom they can with any confidence fidonco ask the wavering members of the house to trust. The reverses which have befallen tin British in Egypt will compel England to do a little lighting to recover her military prestige. It is true that there were but few Eng lishnion in Pasha Hiker's army , and stil fewer in the ( jariison moro recently mas sacred at Sinkat. But England is responsible sponsiblo for the policy which involvoc this loss of lifo. England's course it Egypt has alienated the native papula tion , The Egyptian troops have no in tcrest in the contest to which Englisl policy makes them n party. The Egyp tians wanted Arabl Pasha for their luler The English guvu them the khedive Bohhul the khedive is the sultan of Tur key. The English titho-gatherers m the conspicuous figures in this shadow government. The Egyptian people ar working to pay the interest on bond hold in England. The policy has boon to collect taxes with as littl. show of responsibility as possible It shrinks from the task of takin military possession of Kgypt , preforrinc to occupy the position of receiver. It in fact , administers upon an estate ii anticipation of the death of the owner England and Turkey , between them have taken all the manliness out of th Egyptian people. Possibly they had no much to commence with ; but a poop ! may bo hold relieved from the uocesait ; of showing alaroity in a cauio in whic t'oy are not the least interested. Ii mott cases where a pi oplo has becom cowardly , the reason may be looked fein in the government. Give them somu thing worth fighting or and they wi ] fight. The Egyptian people have abso luteiy nothing to fight fur. They hav no country , And the tax-gather desolates their homes. Western civilization has done nothing for them. .The False Prophet is probably a barbarian , but when a people has tried the highest de velopment of civilization and found that , . moans simply increased takes , nrelapso nto barbarism does not srom a condi- ion much to bo dreaded. The time apt oars to have corao for England to nban- on her policy of coverning Egypt lirough the khedivo. The seizure of Morv by Russia will ( Ford the opponents of Gladstone another pportunity for attack. It is reported hat Earl Granville , foreign secretary of tate , has instructed Sir Edward Thorn- on , British minister at St. Petersburg , bo protest against the Russian occupation f Morv , on the ground that it is in lircct violation of treaties. It is safe to iredict that the protest , if made , will > c unavailing. The announcements that ho inhabitants of the Mcrv have form ally yielded submitsion to Russia will not bo much of a surprise to those who tavo watched the current of events of ate years in Central _ Asift. It is simply .ho natural step which succeeds others .hat have taken place bofoto. But it is ono that is likely to prove of vast polit- cal importance , inasmuch as it brings the two overshadowing powers of the cast Ilussia and England face to ace with each other , with nothing to in- orvono except the tribes of independent Afghanistan , who have always exhibited i determined and unquonchaqlo hostility o the British. Russia is now within striking distance of the power that has so repeatedly stood in the way of her ad- anco on Constantinaplc , and it will not 10 consonant with Russian human nature f the newly acquired ability to tickle the ios of John Bull is not put into use at an early date. The Morv is commonly spoken of as a ingle city. Indeed , in soma oncyclo- ledias this is the way it is described , but hat is nvidontly an inaccurate way of lulling it , for the most recent white visi- or to the country , Edward O'Dunovan , lip same who fell in the massacre of licks Pasha's army in the Soudan ro- iontly , uses the word Morv to signify lie entire country in the occupation of ho Turcoman clan known as the Mcrv L'okkcs. Bistnark's scheme of social reform is till being vigorously pushed by the Gor- nan chancellor. Ho began t by estab- ishing a system of sttto insurance .gainst accidents and illness for the ben- it of workingmen , and compelling the mployers to pay part ct the premium. Io has now taken the second atop by in troducing a bill providing for a progrcs- ivo income tax. Under it all incomes of § 300 are to pay ono per emit. , and hero is then to bo a gradual increase up o three per cent , on incomes of $2,500 ind over. Everything below $300 is to > o exempt. In calculating the effect of his , it may bo considered that the Gor man incotno represents about double Uie nmount in this country that is , a Gor man with $300 a year is about as well off as an American with $000. Hitherto the ticomo tix has been in Pruisia , as in England and Franco , uniform in rate on all incomes. The now rule , which is cs- entially socialistic in its character , nakcs the rate rise with the amount of .ho . income. This is not all , however. The pro- > osed change will leave a deficit of about 55,000,000 m the revenue. This is to be Hied by another socialistic bill , which mposes on additional tax , rising from one-half to two per cent on all incomes derived from invested money. One-half of ono per cent will be levied on $150 in comes derived from this source , and then the impost is to rise gradually until it caches two per cent on incomes of $2- , iOO and upwards. The total income tax mynblo by a man having an income of .his amount from investments would thus bo five per cent that is , three per cent regular income tax , and two per cent investment tax. Widows , orphans and invalids are , howevtr , to bo exempt ed from the operation of the last on any sum below $1,000. This progressive income tax has long t > eon u favorite expedient of the French socialists , nnd would , there is no doubt. if adopted iu B'ranco and the government should fall in the hands of the extreme radicals , constitute a real danger to nc cumulate property in the hands of indi vidimls. It is a cardinal doctrine of the socialist creed in Franco that all capital in the hands of individuals is injurious to the public welfare , and that no capital should produce anything for an idle man. _ Bradlaugh's majorify at Tuesday'selec tion was not 70 , as has been made to ap pear by a mistake in the transmission ul the cablegram. What it was intended to conver was that the majority was 7t Creator than at any previous election. The vote stock : Brndlaugh , 4,032 votes ; Richards ( torj ) , 11,004 votes ; majority for Brndlaugh , 308. At the general election in 1880 Brad laugh received but 3,700 votes. Ho gained in Tuesday's polling 230 , and came within 12K of the highest liberal vote over cost in the borough that ob tained by Mr. Labouchoro in 1880. The triumph of Bradlaugh is significant ol the determination of the electors to sub mit to no outside dictation as to who their representative shall bo. Their ten acity of purpose and determination is choraotorisl ically English. Having resolved - solved on a cour o of action they propose to persevere in it , no matter what the consequences. Many of them , no doubt , do not care a pin about Bradlaugh , and most of them feel that ho is a great embarrassment barrassmont to the government not i few of them heartily dislike the man on account of his egotism but there is i principle at stake , and they act accord ingly. _ Bradlaugh will present hirnsell again in the house , and there will bo moro scones and perhaps another appeal to the electors. The difficulty vrhich ho has created cannot bo gotten over in the present parliament. It will lead , how ever , as all such difficulties do in Eng land , to reform * Henry M. Stanley appears to havi pretty much his own way in interior Af rica. Ho outwitted Do Brazza in all hi movements , and has the confidence of tin natives , which Do Brazza failed to attain The latter gentleman is not dead , as wa reported some time ago , but has lost his influence where ho labored hnrdett to es tablish it.

Cody , ) the whilom scout and present star " 11 jho 'ur ' * onsational drama , has up piled for permission to take the horse h ° raf ° .an < u'e Mm in conneolion with l hU theatrical performance * tlirough the country. Cody prouiiBoa to give the J horse the best of care , and to pay what- vor is considered just and proper for the BO of the animal. Ho will also enter in * .o good and sufficient bonds for his saf o ro- urn or to indemnify the government in aso af loss , [ Io urgoa that his npplica- ion bo granted , chiefly for the reason that it will nroiiBO public attention and will servo to keep alive the memory of the gallant deeds of the heroes of the cgimcnt. It is hardly necessary to state hat Buffalo Bill's request will not bo granted if for no other reason , because hero is no power to permit public pro- > orty to bo used in this way for strictly irivoto purposes. Not n little romance or rather cold , cruel reality attaches to the history of this old horso. Cpman- cho was the tavorito beast otCapt. Kcogh. nd was ridden by him into the fight on ho Little Big Horn m 187C. Uu was ho s < Io survivor of the Ouster massacre , [ 'o bo aura , Curley , the Crow scout , is ho light by many to have escaped from that bloody field , but there are grave loubts among the oflicers of the Seventh vhothor ho was actually in the fight , and t is believed ho witnessed it from a safe liding place. Com.ncho was found hortly after the battle , standing in the waters of the river. Ho had seven wounds , three of them quito dangerous ones , nnd had * painfully made his way to ho river to eluko his thiret and allay the 'over resulting from his injuries. Ho was irought to Fort A. Lincoln and remained lioro until the headquarters of the Sev enth were removed to Fort Meade , where 10 is at the present timo. Comanche orig- nally belonged to Company I ( Keogh's ) , vhich is now stationed at Fort Totton mdcr command of Capt. Nowlan , but in .878 Col. Sturgis issued un order trans- erring the horse to the custody of the ad- utant of the regiment and directing that le never again bo ridden by any ono. Pho order also provided that ho bo pro- > orly caparisoned and led in front of the : olors at every parade of the regiment , in color Comanche is dark dun , and although over twenty years old , ho is in excellent condition and frisky as a colt. Io received the best of treatment , and .ho . day when the old horse no longer marches iu review will bo a sad day tcr nany of the men. Possibly the nmn of 'ncta and the cynic will smile or sneer at his as clap-trap ; but what a chapter of war , what a vision of gallant endeavor and heroic death there would bo if Com- ncho could reveal what ho saw and icard on that disastrous day of the Little g Horn. Why ( ho Thins Wouldn't Work. The Merchant Traveler Bays : A young ; ontloman entered a newspaper oflico on iVnlnut street and asked if ho might use .ho telephone. "Certainly , " replied the aauve edi tor. tor."I live in Dayton , " ho replied , "and I want to telephone to my wife for a little noney , as I'm unexpectedly short just now. " " I've been there myself , " remarked the city editor , "and I can sympathize with you. You may talk the box clear ofl'rho wall if you want to. " "Thanks , " ho said , and rang for Day- on. Ho got it. but failed somehow to get a satisfactory reply. Ho talked low indho talked loud , and then ho howled. [ Io spelled the words out slowly and re lated them again and again. His appeal vasfullof the words "broke , " "money , " 'can't hear , " "speak plainer , " "send , " 'sober , " "want tovgo home , " and so on , > ut ho was signally unsuccessful in get- ing a fitting response.
