How many special midnight prize
fighting trains will have to bo chartered
by the Union Pacific to enable it to declare
clare dividends ?
HOLMAK , the great objector , ia in
great danger of not being ronominatod

of that part of Indiana of the nuapiclon
of insanity from which they have sufFered -

THE NebrAska Htato medical society has
conferred a merited compliment on Dr.
A. T. O. Mansfield , of Ashland , in mak

faithful and ofliciont labors and it muu

MAYOR CHAM ? expressed the opinion a
the council mooting that the popular agi
tation relative to his appointments wa
principally about the chief of the fire do
partmont. Ho , therefore , sent in the
name of Chief Butler , which was very
properly confirmed by acclamation. Itu
Mayor Clmso must bo defective in his
hearing when ho ignores the popular demand
mand for a change in the oflico of chic
of police.
THE Union Pacific is largely rosponsi
bio for the disgrace that has boon inflicted
od upon this city and state by the recon
prizo-fight. If the roughs and tough
want to have a picnic and pound ant
shoot cash other lot them walk to th
picnia grounds , Had the Union Pacific
refused to lot the prizo-fightingganghavo
a special train it would have conunandoc
the respect of the community. The ofli
corn of .tho road who permitted the spo
oial train to bo chartered have virtual ! ;
made themselves accessories to the crimes
which were committed by the "oxcur
sionists. "

The city council is doing some ver ;
good work. It has passed several ordi
nances and resolutions which nro of vita
importance to the public welfare. On
of these ordinances prohibits the [ atorag
of petroleum , naptha and other oxplo
sivcs , in largo quantities , within the cit
limits. Another ordinance requires th
cutting of trenches or excavations o
payed strooti to bo done under the irnmo
diato supervision of the board of publi
works. By resolution the board of pub
lie works has boon directed to advortis
for bids to clean the paved streets. Sev
eral ordinances were also passed providin
for the opening of now streets botwoo

Vostord ay was ono of the most oxcit-
ng days that Wall street has witncatod
inco the famous Black Friday. The
uspcnaion of the Metropolitan bank ,

known bankers and brokers inaugurated
, panic , and the financial and apcculativo
enter of the country became the ncono
jf the wildest excitement , which contin-
led up to the cloao of business hours.
: iio situation in decidedly panicky , and
urthor failures are looked for. The
wnks of Now York will to-day no doubt
javo to aland n heavy run from doposi-
era who have become alarmed at the
numerous failures and who Mo not
know where it will end or what bank
will bo the next to go under. The
banks that nro nt all weak ornot prepared
or an emergency will very likely bo
weeded out , ono aftoranothor. Whether
ho panic will extend beyond Now York
and become general remains to bo soon.
The probability is , however , that it will
> o confined to Now York , and will in-
olvo only ouch banks and brokers that
are of a reckless speculative character
It is claimed that the Now York banks
that have failed are what are known as
'speculation ' banks , " and their failure
should have no material effect upon con-
aorvativo banks , oven of the metropolis.
Such is the opinion of the leading bunk-
era in Chicago , where the markets , not
withstanding the break in Now York ,
showed great steadiness.
Secretary Folgor , of the treasury , who
is in Now York , is making every possible
effort to avert a general panic. Ho
ascribes the break to reckless speculation
on the part of a few mon. The situation ,
10 claims , is not inherently weak , aa
.hero is plenty of money in the country ,
Furthermore , ho assuroa the public that
10 does not anticipate any extensive
innic. This assurance , coming from such
an able financier as Secretary Folgor ,
will no doubt have A quieting effect.
The probability is that the panic will
bo of short duration , and not extend
beyond the limits of the metropolis.
It will principally alfoct these who have
boon speculating in stocks in which the
shrinkage has boon BO constant and rapid
for the last two months. There has boon
too much water injected into stocks , and
now the reaction is taking placo. It will
continue until the water is nearly all
wrung out , and until the fictitious values
give place to actual valuoa. When this
is done , and all the "speculation banks"
lisvo been cleaned out , thorn will bo a
steady and lioaUhy recuperation in bank
ing ciroloa nnd in the stock market. The
result of the panic , wo believe , will bo
beneficial to Wall street and the country
generally. It Trill have n tendency to
chock rocklosa speculation , nnd operations
in the future will bo conducted on
sounder basis. If , however , the panic
should spread to other cities , wo believe
that the banks of Omaha would pass
through the storm unaffected aa they di <
in the memorable panic of 1873 , wlioi
many of the soundest banks in the coun
try went down in the crash. There are
no safer banks in the country than these
in Omaha. They are managed by carofu
and conservative bankers of lifo-timo experience
porionco , and who do not engage in any
thing but legitimate business. There ii
plenty of money in Omaha , and the city
is botcer prepared to stand a panic thai
it has over boon at any time in its his
tory. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

DIM MOINES , IOWA , May 13. The
oiiio hive may bo in Nebraska , but THK
! IR : extends its journeys into Iowa and
II around , gathering the material which
ill ploaao the tastes of all. And now for
few running comments upon things po-
tical and otherwise in Iowa.
Since the holding of the two atato con
ditions there ia an apparent lull in po-
tical affairs , though some of the papers
ro devoting much time to proving what
aa been so often stated and admitted ,
hat "Iowa is solid for Blaino. ' ' Even
ho Jlcffislcr has to keep repeating in
ach issue that "Iowa IB solid for Blaine , "
or fear , apparently , that unless thia is
lone some ono might doubt the fact , so
ft proclaimed. What are the facts any
tow 1 There can bo no doubt that the
Maine boom was energetically and per
istontly worked up in this state for
months preceding the convention , and
, hat a largo majority of the delegates to
, ho convention were in favor of the no-
minatioh of the man from Maine. But it
a equally certain that a largo minority
were and are to-day
Ori'OSKD TO THE NOMINATION
of Blaine at Chicago , and this minority
includes many of the most influential and
iiardcat working Republicans iu the stato. .
They know it waa useless to try to atop
this boom at present ; they could only
check its force to some extent and cndoa
vor to turn it aside.
Did they moot with any success in
thia ) It must bo confessed they mo
with a little The convention by a clos
vote , declared against positive inatruc
tiona. While the four delegates at largi
are all declared to bo in favor of Blaluo
yet others laugh and aay there ia _
one , Clarkson , of the Register , who is i
aimon-puro , out-and-out Blaine man
The four will vote for Blame of course
but given a chance Hubbard , Stone im
Donnan , as good judges aay , would glad
ly break away and throw their votes fo :
some other "coming man , " and there ar
at least , half a dozen out of the twenty
two district delegates whom the Bliiin
managers are oven now regarding with
SUSl'ICigN AJjD DOUDT.
Having no positive instructions to obey
it is found these delegates might quickly
decide after a ballot'or two that they had
discharged themselves of all further obli
gations to vote for Blaine. And when
Mr. Clarkson gives orders for another
grund charge to save the day for his
candidate , ho may discover to his sorrow
and disgust that some of hia command
have not only charged the enemy , but
stayed there.
Hon. John A. Kasson and Assistant
Postmaster General Hatton were in at
tendance upon the convention , and
though they did not obtain all they may
have doairod , yet it is understood they
went away not altogether displeased with
the roaults. Mr. Kaaaon was made per
manent chairman of the convention , de
livered the speech ho desired to make ,
and more than this had the pleasure of
hearing the committee report the resolu
tions , "written by himself , endorsing
President Arthur and hia administra
tion , and dcclailng in favor of the high-
eat and stillest kind of a protective tariff.
Being thus personally [ complimented by
being made the presiding officer , secur
ing the endorsement of the administra
tion , helping by resolution hia friends ,
the manufacturers of the cast , Mr. Kaa
aon may well bo content without being
sent as n delegate to Chicago.
Hero it should bo said that Mr. Kisson
will not bo a candidate for ro-olcction to
congress , and it ia intimated that it need
surprise no one if after the Chicago con
vention ho should resign hia present sent

the hixh post of U. S. Minister to Ber

The state nominating conventions will
lot bo held until August , giving the mi-
norous candidates for atato nd other of-
icoa plenty of time in which to work up
heir respective booms. There are plenty
of them and there will bo some hard
ighta before the nominations are made ,
ii the congressional districts it is surprii-
ng how few republican candidates can
jew bo named. In the first the understanding -
standing has boon that Mr. MuCoid will
retire , but there are at least one half
dozen candidates for his succession , and
- nero may spring up almost any day.

end district Murphy , the present mem
. ber. will bon hard man to defeat.
Speaker Wolf , of Cedar , can try his hand
at it if ho BO desires , but it is said ho is
- not anxious for that fight. In the third
of course the gallant Col. Ilondowoa will
bo a candidate for ro-oloction and will bo
, elected , though the democrats are claim
ing that they will run him hard with Jas.

will try for a ro-oloction , but ho should
bo easily defeated this Umo by somu
, good republican. Senator Wm. Larra-
bee , of Fuyotto , ia mentioned , but ho will
not bo a candidate this year ; holdiiifi '
< back to run for governor next year , and
no better man or candidate could be
named.
In the fifth district "it deponda" ' II
the republican" , Wilson , ia unseated and
the democrat , Fredericks , is seated , then
Wilion will claim ft renomiuatiou and
nitty got it. But ( ho chances are that nid
oth r man will got the nomination , and
should there bo a long wrangle in the
convention it need surprise no one if GOT.
Sherman was put forward as the republl
can candidate , Fredericks will bo tlu
domocratio candidate , if ho so desirer ,
The sixth district the hoito of Gen.
Weaver , and the understanding is that
Cook , the present member , must give way
for Weaver , who will receive the support
of groonbackors and democrats , S imo
of the latter may kick , but the bargain is
made , and most of the goods will be de
livered. Ex-Lieutenant Gov. Campbell ,
of Jasper , a good man and energetic
worker , wants the republican nomination
and would make it hot for Weaver.
Other good mon would take it and try to
down the doughty greenback general.
In thia , the capital district , KBSSOII re
tires from the field , and the three prom
inent candidates for the republican nom
ination are Senator Smith , of Polk ,
State Treasurer Conger , of Dallas ,
and Dr. Bovington , of Madison ,
THE OUTCO.MK is Doonrror
but it now looks aa if the doctor may
como out ahead in thia very pretty and
interesting race. Congressman Hepburn
ia now aerving hia second term , and from
appearances will have but little trouble
in aorving a third. His friends are con
fident that with him a re-nomination
means a re-election. The opposition are
talking much of what they will do by
fusion and union , and Senator Qault , of
Appanonso , is named aa the man to load
the motley crow.
And who is the republican who can and
beat Congressman Pusy in the Ninth ?
Will it bo Snpp , or Wright , or Chapman
of Council Bluffs ? Can Lafo Young , of
Atlantic ? John Y. Stone , of Mills ia a
fighter , Platt Wicka.of Shelby , is strong ,
Sunator Logan , of Harrison ) has frionda ,
and Major Anderson , of Fremont , stands
before the public to-day in a dilfortnt
light than ho did two years ngor Who
is the winning congressman from the
Ninth ? In the Tenth and Eleventh the
present members , Holmes and . .Strublo
will bo ro-iiommvtod and ro-elected
aa a matter of course.
There is little doubt the democrats and
grconbackora will
FUSE Ul'ON AN EtKCTOUAL TICKET ,
and perhaps upon a state ticket and make
Berne arrangements of a mutually satis
factory character regarding their candi
dates for congress. The democratic and
greenback leaders made this agreement
months ago and both parties are carrying
it out in good faith. There may bo aomo
growling and a few hitches , but republi
cans may as well now as hereafter make
up their minds to face what is certain to
como. The opposition to the republican
party in Iowa will this year bo Bubstrur
tially united upon state , congrosaiona
and county tickets. Wise men make
preparation to moot and as far as possible
control coming evonta ; fools don't.
What effect the prohibitory lawa going
into effect in July will have upon the
voioa at the election following remains tc
be acen. Many good republicans contend
the party haa already lost all it can , o :
nearly all , from thia cause. Let us hopi
they wore right in their judgment , but a1
the same time other republicans are frank
in their expressions of fear that the en'
is not yet of this prohibitihn trouble. I
ia fortunate this ia n presidential year
ivhen the national tiffoira swallow up loca
affairs , but the fact remains that manj
men care more about their beer and win
than about presidents , cabinets , congrcsi
or oflico. WING.
