Ilex 183 Omaha , Ncl > ; J1LAINE AM ) LOGAN , The republicans of the United States bavo chosen as their standard bearers in the national campaign of 1881 lhat matchless leader , James G. Blaine , the man who of all others is moat deeply - ly enshrined in the hearts of his country men , and that gallant veteran , Gen. John A. Logan , who has achieved re nown on the forum , on Jlio battlefield and in the halls of congress. No man in America inspires moro genuine and fer vid enthusiasm among the republican names than the "Plumed Knight , " and no candidate could have boon named at Chicago who could fan thn dull oinbora of latent patriotic republicanism to moro intense white heat than the Great Com moner from the state of Maine. If bril liant genius and aggressive leadership id ono in its standard bearer wcroa guaran tee of triumphant success , the republican partyjcould fool assured on aglorious vic tory in November. But while yielding tone no man or journal in our sincere admi ration for the uoblo and manly qualities of James G. Blaine , whom wo have sup ported aa our choice for president in 1870 and 1880 , wo realize that the re publican party lias reached a crisis in its history , in which the nomination of James G. Blaine bcomca an extra hazard ous experiment. It is not a question whether the reliable republican status of Kansas , Iowa and Nebraska will roll up from 25,000 to 60,000 for Blaine and Logan , but whether the doubtful states of Now York , Indiana and Now Jersey can bo carried in the face of the known and pronounced opposition to Mr. Blaine and among the independent voters of those elates. It was bccauao wo have boliovcd Chester A. Arthur , with his clean-handed administration , discreet , conciliatory policy , was by nil odds the safest man for the republican partyat thio critical juncture that wo have urged his claims abovo'thoso of all other competi tors for the presidency. Wo fervently hope that the choice of the national con vention , inspired by zealous onUiusiadtn rather than cool , deliberative judgment , will load the party to triumphant vic tory. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 'RAH for Blaine , of Maine. BLAINU takes the presidential cako. THE dark horse remains in the dark. BLACK JACK did it with his little tele gram. Till ! real estate boom in Omaha shows no aign of weakening. JAMBS G. BLAINU did very well for a man who was not a candidate. TUG most notlcoablo feature in sum- in or millinery will bo a white plumo. TUB nominating speeches in the nation al republican convention were far below the standard of thoao of four years ago. AH usual there will bo no general fourth of July colobralion in Omaha. Wo have plenty of patriotism , but lack en thusiasm. SENATOK EUMUNDH is part owner of the biggest tombstone factory in Vermont. It will not cost him much to mark the pot whore his little boom is laid away. TUB city council ought to hurry up that street cleaning contract. The paved atroots should now bo regularly and fre quently cleaned. PUESIDENT Annum ought to have on- engaged an orator who know enough lo make a abort smooch and not turn his coat tails to the audience. 4 TUB Fourth of July orators are beginning - ning to "brush up for the occasion. " Omaha , as usual , will bo called upon lo supply several oralorical windmills for country celebrations. OMAHA needs moro business buildings , but as long aa tenant * continue lo pay enormous rents for old rookorioa bo- cauao they happen to bo centrally located aorno of tno best busincaa lots will remain unlrnpr vwl. There ia plenty cf room for good buildings on Faroain and Douglas atroeta and the cro&i atroots , and it ia a uhaino that BO much , valuable property ehould be covered with old frame shells that are hardly able to stand up alons ji UAILWAT hospitals nro ft good thing , but the plan ol making the employee pay for thorn by monthly assessments is simp ly nn outrageous impoiltion. If an cm- ployo is injured owing to the negligence of the railway company it is not only the duty of the company to take care of him , but to pay him a reasonable amount of money for his injuries. If an employe becomes nick , through no fault of the company , ho is bound to pay the expensed of his own treatment , and in the majority of cases employes would prefer to do BO , as well ns to liavo their own physician. It la a poor railway company that cannot aflbrd'to take care of iU employes who are injured through its negligence , with out calling for a general assessment. iMMicmATlo.v to this country this year has fallen off about twenty per cent. Our exports are also twenty per cent be hind the volume of 1883. The wages of labor Imvo boon reduced. Tlioro has boon an unexampled decline in the prices of Blocks. The prospective demand for our exportable crops is not encouraging. Under thcso circumstances , notwith standing the country ia rich' and money is plentiful , it is an excellent time for economy and retrenchment. There should bo no stoppage of business and no hesitation as to investment of permanent value ; but wo should go nlow and safely until the season of recuperation seta in. TUB national republican convention is making good progress , and will probably conclude ita labors Saturday night. Tlio convention of 1880 mot on Wednesday nnd effected n temporary organization. On Thursday n permanent organization was accomplished. The third day was occupied with reports of committees nnd the discussion of contested cases. Satur day was mainly tnkon up with dilatory motions and remark ; , nnd it was not un til the evening of hnt day that the pro ceedings got ns far as the nominating speeches. The balloting began on Mon day of the succeeding week , nnd wan con cluded on Wednesday , AT this time it affords one pleasure to read again the famous apooch of Col. Robert Q. Ingorsoll , in presenting the name of James 0. lll.iino at Cincinnati in 1870. That grand speech applies as well to Mr. Blaine to-day as it did eight years ago. It was the eloquent Ingorsoll who gave to Blaine the name ot "tho Plumed Knight. " It was Illinois , through Col. Ingorsoll , that presented the name of Blaine in 1870 , and now , in 1881 , Illinois has the pleasure of at last making "tho Plumed Knight" the nominee of the republican party , and the next , pros- idont of the United States. TJIKHI : is probably no city in the United States that gives to its laboring men so much employment 03 Omaha. The expenditure of money in the improve ment of the streets , sewerage , and other public works , increases the value of prop erty , gives our city a metropolitan and busy busy appoaratico , andfurnish employment te a largo number of men. The people , who are beginning to BOO the benefit of money rightly expended , will hereafter bo quick to vote for all needed public im provements. TUB BEE congratulates itself upon hav ing aaid nothing concerning James G. Blaine which it would now Imvo to re tract. "VVhilo wo were for Arthur , wo aaid nothing to the detriment of any ether candidate. This is more than can bo said by aoino republican pa pers , which in their zoa ) for their favorite caudidato so far forgot themselves as to heap undeserved abuse upon rival candi dates. This of coureo puts Bitch papers in rather an unpleasant position , Foil many years the latoGon. Babcock sent n Christinas present of $100 to Mr , Sabin , of Sycamore , Ills.

AN enterprising Chicago clothing house has engaged Col. Goshen , the ijiiuit , to attend to its outside advertising.

England has boon shaken up again by another dynamite earthquake , caused by dynamite explosions , in the very heart of London. The English people are- maddened - doned by the thought that no life is safe if such outrages continue to bo possible in the heart of the metropolis. The explosions - plosions followed shortly upon the intro duction of Trovolyau's Irish land bill , The inference is legitimate that the bafllod Nationalists had again vented their displeasure in dastardly mischief. Tlioro can bo no excuse offered for the authors of the dynamite explosion in London. It is a sousoless way to carry on war , oven were thbro justification for oxtrerao measures , aa it never roaches thoao who are directly responsible for the ills under which Ireland suffers , It has has not oven the loqio of the nihilist , who throws his dynamite bomb at the man who represent * the powoi of the Btato. In the case of this London ox- plosion and the other dynamite plots which have gone before it , innocent people sufTor for the sins of the govern ment under which they live. The thir teen victims of this latest explosion had no moro lo do in shaping Gladstone's j I Irish policy than a * though they had lived at the Capo of Good Ilopo. Viewed In this light , the men who sot off thcso explosions are nothing moro than mur derers , and will bo treated as such , if caught. They cannot como in under cover of any political shield. Their crime is a crime igainst humanity , and not an olTonso against any form of government , and it does not deserve the sympathy of any right-thinking man or woman. The dynamiters are injuring the Irish cause , and the Irish people would take stops to denounce the ttso of dynamito. Ho long as the dynamite warfare is pursued they can never expect any redress for their griovancies or amglorallon of jtholr condi tion at the hands of the English rulers- What sympathy may exist among the English people for suffering Ireland will surely bo destroyed by dynamite. Does any sane man suppose that if the explosions in London had killed fifteen prominent Englishmen , and destroyed a dozen of the linoflt public buildings , Irish independ ence would bo nearer by an hour than it was before ? Docs any uano man suppose that if to-morrow Victoria and Gladstone should bo slain by Irish bomb or bullet , and Buckingham 1'alaco and 'Westminis ter Abbey blown to atoms by Irhh mines , England would drop upon her knees and beg Ireland to depart in peace ? la it not ai cortninjas anything undetermined can ha that if the patrons of dynamite should achieve such diabolical success it would bo the beginning of a tremendous failure ? that England instead of relaxing her grip on Ireland , would tighten it , and that the advocates of mercy and moder ation in dealing with an unhappy country would bo swept out of sight by a storm of popular wrath and vungoanco ? The bitterest onpmios of Ireland can not wish her a heavier or deadlier blow than would surely fall if the hitherto compara tively harmless attempts of the invinct- blcs should bo followed by a wholesale destruction of lifo and property. The worst tyranny Ireland has over endured from England would bo mild and benevo lent as compared with the iron yoke which English hands would rivet upon Irish nocks. When such fanatical knaves and fools as O'Donovan Roaaa and his associates boast of the blessings which dynamite will bring to Ireland , they show stupendous ignorance of English nature and of the darkest lessons in Anglo-Irish history. Lord llandolph Churchill comes into constant prominence as the coming man inT the leadership of the Tory party. There arc two men in this young scion ol the IIouso of Maryborough. Ono of them is a rough-spoken and ill-mannered Esau , who seeks opportunity to mnko himself offensive to bettor men than himself. The other is an inchoate states man , with broad views on many points on which the arorago Englishman and much moro the avontgo Tory , is narrow and 111ol obtiiEi. The latter of the two has boon coming to the front of late , moro than the former. In opposition to the efforts olpi Lord Salisbury to convert the Tory party into an aristocratic clique , Lord Churchill has insisted on an appeal to the conservatism and rather "jingoiah" patriotism of the common people. lia1 this ho follows the ex ample of Disraeli , who was ready to boast of having boon an extreme radical and an oxtomo conservative , but never the compromise called a whig. In his attitude towardslrish questions , Lord Churchill has made a break from his party. lie resisted the attempts to amend the franchise bill so as to exclude Itoland from its benefits , and otherwise declared his openness to consider any claims . that Ireland had to English con sideration. On this point Lord Churchill might : make a brilliant and successful record , if ho had the knowledge and nni audacity required for that purpose. IIo iew a disbeliever in free trade , and ho would find little difficulty in showing that all the liberal attempts to settle the Irish question failed because they ; do nothing _ for the promo tion . of Irish manufacture. Unfortunately , it is ono of the matters which Irishmen seem very unlikely to take into the earnest consideration it de mands. Mr. I'arnoll , like Gladstone , persists in regarding the land question as the great iasuo. If the tprlos under Lord Churchill were to strike in on thia line , they might nll'cot nn alliance with Orange mut Green for the promotion of Irish in terests , which would leave both the Koine rulers and liberals very far to the roar. Lord Churchill hns made an admirable beginning I , although ho has so offended the Irish lories that they Imvo cancelled hia invitation lo uddroes them in Dublin , Tlio publio mind is somewhat pacified us to General Gordon. It is now under- olood thnt his present position involves no further peril than during his former residence in the country when suppressing the slave trade. If ho has no organized force nt his command , neither has ho any organized enemy lo oppose , , tlio Mahai boini ; very much in the same position nl El Oooid that Gordon is lu at Khartoum. The 1'aU Afntt Oascttci continues to threaten the ministry with immediate de feat if they submit to the "multiple con trol" of Egypt. The Daily News and other ministerial papers observe thai while the treaty of July , 1840 , which sot tied the status of Egypt , and the conven tiou'of the following year remain in force England is bound by her engagements to all the othpr w'snatorios. Anything like annexation or independent action wouli bo a deliberate broach of good faith , ant would at onoo reopen the whole cos ton question. If England is desirous tha Russia should keep good faith as to th Black Sea and the road to India , she can not sot the example of violating her own pledge. An article atiributod to Mr. Gladstone and signed G. , appears iu the Fortnight Iy .Review. The writer points out tha while the English are defending the ! own interests in Egypt , it is necessary t < remember that Franco has colonial later osts also , moro contiguous than those of the English , and that it will bo time enough fur England to act without consideration sidoration for , the wishes of other power when her own possessions are menaced us at present they are not. IIo also ro fora tu the Monroe doctrine , and points out that so much political compllcatloi arises because European countries do no confine themselves within their natlona boundaries.

HIS ronruNB. The stories of his largo receipts from his look have not boon at all exaggerated. Ho eccivoj SO cents a volume from his publishers. They now believe they will sell a half a mil- ion copies of this book. This will give Mr. Jlaino $100,000 , for his year's work. It is tot unreasonable to suppose that these who ) tiy tbo first volume will jompleto their pur chase by buying tbo aecond. This will give Mr. Blaine ever 8750,000 as the fruit of his irst venture into the rich pastures of histori cal literature.

Mr. Blaine once said to a visitor that ho was richer than any of tbo so- called millionaires of the day , because bo had M that ho wanted. He ia not nn avaricious nan. Ho is not niggnrdly in his expenditures , neither ia ho lavish.

In bla manners Mr. Blnina Is essentially a lomocrat. Ho never yet in any of the van- us periods of li's ' career boa shown any pride < f place. Ho is ulmplo and unaffected. Ho larbnrs few , if any , resentments , The gene- nl public have supposed him to be agio-it iiemy of ConltlitifrV. This is nut true. Ha vould is willingly khako hand * with Colliding o morrow , if Colliding would inent him halt- yay , as he would with any of bis former asso- Mutes. Ho Jinn intense pride , and a most lory temper when provoked , but when bid ugo explodes no Numbering resentment is left lobind , Ho docs not bollovo In tbo utate-s- mnnsblp of rovongo. Upon this mibject ho aid ono day : " Lifo Is too short to Ho In waiter or personal retaliation lor injuries recefvcd. f you can strike out a good , strung blow nt .ho . time well and good.
