OK Sunday last , while a game cf base
ball was in progress at Central City ,
Colorado , ono of the players was killed

fatally injured. This a warning to ball

Foil once Senators Van " \Vyck and
Mandorson huvo voted together. They
voted for the Ingalls amendment to the
Mexican pension bill , which proposes to
date the pensions of Union soldiers from
the date of discharge or disability , and
extending to October 1,1884 , the limita
tion of the timu to Clo application for
arrears.
Tun following timely ndvlco is offered
by the PMladclpId Call.
Bo deliberate in all things. Hurry is
the bane of summer in the city. Rapid
walking , hastily eating , excited talk , BO-
vpro labor all that rapidly consumes
vital energy is dangerous or detrimental.
The blood should bo kept , as nearly as
possible , in its normal etato. Many are
not careful to sock the shady aide of the
otrcot. The sun should bo avoided as
much ps possible. Exciting talk or con
versation should bo put aside. Deliber
ation should rule in nil things ; and this
will bo of great advantage.
A OHEAT many persons imagine that
Douglas and Sixteenth streets have boon
paved for race courses , and accordingly
they drive their horsea on these thor
oughfares at the top of their speed ,
without paying attention to pedestrians.
They seem to forgot that pedestrians
have rights , particularly on the street
crossings. At present it is actually dan
gerous at times for a person to cross
cither Douglas or Sixteenth streets. The
police ought to [ Jmako some arrests for
fast and reckless driving , and put a stop
to racing on these streets.

THK tribune , in advocating the estab
lishment of woolen mjlli in Colorado to
consume the homo product of wool ,
mikes a very sensible suggestion. It
applies equally aa well to Nebraska ,
which is fast becoming ono of the loading
wool producing states. Nebraska cer
tainly ought to have a dozen or moro
woollen mills. They would provo profit
able to the owners , and of great benefit
to the farmers.
THE American method of constructing
railroads has boon successfully intro
duced into Japan. The government
of Japan has introduced 107J miles of
railway siuco 1872 , at a cost of $14,400 -
000 , making the average cost per milo
891,428. This is probably the cost in
the paper currency of Japan which is at
at a discount of 5)0 ) per cent. The co.st
in gold would bo about $01.000 per milo.
Thoj [ average cost of railways per
milo in the United States is § 01,000 ,
which is regarded 25 per cent moro than
the cash yaluo , $45,700 per mile. The
cost of the 167 $ miles of Japanese rail
way is about 40 per cant moro than the
cost of the American roads , taking gold
as the basis of calculation. It la evident
that the contractors have robbed the Jap
anese govommont according to t'no
American methods , and wo suspect that
the contract > n are Americans.
OtiAiiA is gradually becoming a manu
facturing center , and where once wo

of emoko and soot. Chicago has an on-
ti-smoko ordinance. Ita constitutionality -

think they should bo indulged in the
privilege of belching forth from the
chimneys of their factories , boata or on-
glncs , black , sticky , sooty smoke to the
defilement of the city The Chicago de
votees of cleanliness are rejoiced , bo-
cauio their state supreme court has just
declared the sraoko abating ordinance
valid. Thus fortified a criuado against
all chimneys which ihrow out black
emoko may bo anticipated. The propri
etors have the option of using hard coal
or smoke consumers. The tirao has
como for Omaha to follow the example
of Chicago. The city council ought to
pats a smoke-abating ordinance , and then
see that it is enforced.
THE ELECTORAL COUNT.
In February , 1877 , this republic w
on the brink of revolution by reason c
the disputed count of the electoral re
turns. Duplicate returns had boon received
coivod from various states , and whoi
they wore opened In accordance with th
constitutional provisions , in the prosonc
of the joint convention of the two hou o
of congress , the question arose how am
by whom should these returns bo can
vasscd and for whom should the oloctora
votes of the disputed states bo cast am
counted.
The construction placed upon this con
titutional provision by the ropublicani
was that the president of the aonato wai
the duly authorised officer to open tlu
sealed packages and to determine whicl
of them were properly certified , and foi
whom the votes cast by the respective
electors should bo counted. In othoi
words , the president of the senate wo :
vested with the solo power of conducting
the canvass in the houses of congress ir
joint convention assembled , the mombore
being present merely to witness the
count and give oflicial recognition to the
proclamation made by the president ol
of the senate , in their presence , that the
person receiving a majority of all the
votes cast was duly elected president.
The democrats , It will bo berne in
mind , insisted that the two houses were
not moro dummies standing them to wit
ness the canvass by the president of the
senate , but that the president of the senate
ate- won a ministerial olllcor charged with
inspecting the returns , and the two
houses jointly were to determine by their
vote which of the disputed returns , If
uny , were to boicountod. To avoid dan-
jorous complications and possible revolu
tion the wisest heads of both parties
tgrood upon an electoral commission
is an expedient to bridge the crisis. ° VYo
ire now approaching another presidential
: ontost , which is liable to culminate in a
retry close election , with disputed returns
rom a number of states. Every patriot
nust feel a deep interest in the passage
if a bill before the next presidential
lection , regulating the electoral count.
The senate last winter passed a bill ,
arofully framed by Senator Edmunds ,
rhich provides that each atato shall
xoato a special tribunal for verifying the
loctoral count , from which tribunal
hero shall bo no appeal. The returns
iroporly certified to by the tribunal
hall stand unchallenged , but where a
lisagrcomont occurs in the state tribunal
ho two houses of congress are to decide
rhothor the vote shall bo entirely re-
ectcd , or which , if any , shall bo counted ,
'his bill the house refuses to pass , but
a a substitute Congressman Eaton , of
! onnccticut who was in the senate
men the electoral commission was croat-
d , and to which ho was opposed pro-
ones that the house and senate , acting in
ointconvontion,8hallcanvaesthovotoand
rhouovor a dispute arises concerning the
otuniB from any particular state , the
lecision shall bo made by the majority
oto of the individual members of the
wo houses. This , of course , is a narrow ,
artizin view , looking towards a demo-
ratio success. The house is composed
f 819 members , and the senate has 78
lombors. The republican majority in
bo senate is only four , while ir. the
ouso the democrats have a majority
inglng from CO to 70 , and which is
onstantly increasing by the expulsion of
apublicans , although rightfully elected ,
nd substituting democrats. Eaton's
mondmont virtually provides that if any
uostion shall arise in regard to the oleo
oral returns from any state , on joint
allot the democrats would have their
wn way by a largo majority. Mr.
SUon'a substituta will , of course , bo
loromptorily rejected by the senate ,
rhich will not allow itself to bo excluded
rom real participation in the settlement
f disputed questions. It is not expected
y any rational person that the sonata
rill permit itself to bo placed in the atti-
udo of moro witnesses of the count. The

IN INTERESTING CHAPTER
01' HISTORY.
There appears in the July Century a
hnptor.'of history that will no doubt bo
ocoivod with a great deal of interest. It
i the story of the origin , growth anddis-
andmeut of the Ku Klux Klan , which
gurod so prominently In the south
.uring the unsettled period immediately
ollowing the close of the war of the re-
lelllon. That the narrative is a recital of
acts is vouched for by the editor of the
lagazino. According to the writer , who
i a minister of the southern Presbyter- !
n church , the Ku Klux Klan had its
rigiu in the town ot Pulaski , Tennessee ,
n 1800. A number of young men aux-
) us to employ their leisure tirao
i some agreeable and pleasant
launor , determined to form a club , moro
Dr amusement than for any other pur-
oso. At first politics was not cousid-
rod essential. I n casting about for some
dd name for this club , which had no
xod purpose , they hit upon the Crook
rord "Kuklol , " moaning a band or a
irclo. This , in the spirit of fun which
haractorizod the preliminary orgauUi-
Ion , VDS corrupted into Ku-Klux , to
rhich WAS added the word clan , spelled
rlth a k , to inako the entire name alii-
eratiro. Adopting hideous disguises ,
ho original members began amui-
Qg themselves by initiating now
members into the secret * of th
Ku Klux Klan. The victim WAS pu
through a "course of sprouts , " whicl
was a source of great amusement for th
spectators. The whole thing WAS a sell
and of course each victim WAS anxious i
see others initiated , In this way th
membership of this nonsensical club
which was soon to bo transformed int <
an organization of persecution and terror
ism , was rapidly increased. Eventual ! ;
when it was discovered that the ghoatl ]
nppoaranco of the Ku Kluxers inspircc
terror among the negroes , who were a
that time objects of hatred t <
the whites , the idea naturally suggested
itself that the power thus acquired
could bo utilized in the punishment ol
crimes and offenses , particularly those
committed by the negroes. Thus sprang
into existence the organization known at
the Ku Klux Klan , whoso infamous docdi
of outrage have become matters of his
tory. The Klan soon included the field
of politics in its operations , and no
crime was too heinous for it to commit in
order to accomplish its object , whether
political or for plunder , It is claimed
that desperate men took nd vantage of the
existence of the order to assume its
name , disguises , and methods , for
the sake of plunder and revenge ,
and that in this way many
crimes were charged up to the Ku-K'.ux
that they were really innocent of. The
author of the Century paper attempts to
apologiro for the existence and acts of
the Ku Klux where vor ho can find an op
portunity. But in this ho makes a mis
take , lor no apology can over atone for
the wrongs of the Ku Klux and the out
rages committed by them and in their
name. The spirit of Kukluxism still
survives in some parts of the south to-day ,
ind their deeds are re-enacted whenever
it is necessary in the interest of southern
politics.
TIIEIIE are a number of circuses that
ro not satisfied with making money le
gitimately , but resort to various tricks
to rob the people wherever they go. Ono
if the most popular methods of circus
robbery is in the changing of money ,
, vhich is done by certain employes in
mch n way as to defraud their patrons.
Clio victim hands up a five-dollar bill for
i circus ticket , and the tickot-soller hands
lack fifty cents in change , and swears
hat ho only received a dollar bill. Th
rictim protests against this robbery , and
n nine coses out of ton he fails to got
lis money back. The candy but
ihers , the lemonade peddlers , and
ho side - show men play the
amo trick with equal success. Ono of
heso circuses , that of W.V. . Cole , has
omo to grief in Montana. The Cole
ircus gang operated a little too boldly at
iutto , and the result was that Cole him
elf and cloven of his men were arrested ,
ihoy had succeeded in robbingtho people
mt of over $500. Cole has refunded all
ho money claimed to have boon stolen ,
) ut the men have boon hold upon a crim-
nal complaint. In the language of the
3utto Intcr-ATountain "it won't do for
Jr. Colo's men to put Montanans up for
uckors and 'y'P ypii' " whatever they
lay bo. The people of Montanaarojustly
licensed at the whole outfit , and propose
o teach these circus thieves a lesson that
hey will not bo likely to forgot very
ocm. If other communities would follow
ho example of Butte there would soon
loan end to circus robberies.

THAT Fremont ( Nob. ) maiden wh (
received the first prize for blowing the
largest soap bubble at a recent sociable
is acquiring a national notoriety. All the
loading papers of the country have com
plimented her on her achievement , and
a recent number of the Now York Jour
nal makes the following comment :
This childish pastime is particularly
pleasant and instructive under such cir
cumstances. Nothing can bo moro pic
turesquely pretty than the sight of a
dimpled maiden with a clean clay pipe
in her puckered mouth blowing bubbles ,
from whoso translucent surface is reflect
ed her laughing eyes in miniature. It is
instructive , because it shows that , sooner
or later , the gift she possesses may bo
used in " " hus
"blowing up" a delinquent
band. Young men should beware of the
merry maidens who are toe dovotcd to
the sport of bubble-blowing. There is

The Union Pacific railroad corporation
laa at length boon compelled to confess
Judgment on two vital points of its policy.
From the moment the Gould-Dillon man
igomont began to pay dividends on
500,000,000 of stock ' representing no
laid in capital , this great corporation
las proceeded in defiance of the govern-
nont on the ono hand and of natural
sorapotition on the other. It greeted
-ho Thurman act of congress with a
loatilo policy of "Jawing it" to the last
litch , and it wont on coolly distributing

ittitude toward patrons * In the face of
ho wonderful fertility cf America in

iriao , both the old corporations con-
tituting the first transcontinental

Is to the Thurman act , President Dillon

oyornmont to collect its debt as Bomo-

nd was always talking about the proba-
illity of a reduction of the requirement
f payment to C per cent , instead of 25
ior cent , of the earnings , or anticipating
ho crossing off the entire debt by a grate-
ul country. Neither did the theoretical
stutoness of 0. F. Adams , Jr. , nor the

ntorost enable the Now England ropro-
ontatives in the direction to correct the
iptimism , greed and blindness of Dillon.
It was clear that hero were two great
[ omands which the road must moot , bo-
ido these demands for replacement of

0 which all roads are constantly subject ,
-namely , the demand of the government
, nd the demand from competition , and

ho Gould-Dillon management of the
nion Pacfio has for years robbed the

Mr. Dillon , the late president. Is a

greed outweighs nil considerations of sa
gacity and provision for the future , he
will provo a snare and a delusion. The
accession of Mr. Adams to the presidency
ia a temporary expedient. The fact that
ho was himself a victim of the Gould-
Dillon policy docs not restore public
confidence. Mr. Adams , after ono mis

Musical Ilow nt St. Paul.
Chicago Herald.
There is a very lively row in progress
at Minneapolis and St. Paul , growing out
of certain complications which were de
veloped by the recent musical festival
under Thomas' direction. Ono element
of the chorus consisted of a musical soci
ety of St. Paul , led by Sig. Janotta , the
same wlio for aomo years was a loading
teacher of singing at Cincinnati. Janotta
is a man who , in his own opinion , might
properly bo president of the United
States or king of Hawaii. His society
made it a condition of their joining the
festival that "Messiah" should bo given ,
and that ho should conduct it. The point
was conceded and Thomas agreed. It
was expected to have had a full rehearsal ,
but an unforeseen detention pro vented the
musicians from reaching Minneapolis from
Kansas City until 4 p. m. , when , as the
hall was two miles cut of town and all the
instruments and music had to bo carted
over , a rehearsal was impossible. At the
time of the concert Janotta "was produc
ing himself , " and the way in which ho
conducted the "Messiah" overture was
calculated to show that ho was nobody's
fool. The orchestra did whatever ho re
quired , however unexpected it might bo
to them. When Toodt stood up to sing
"Comfort Ye , " ho was horrified to hoar
the prelude begin more than twice as fast
us it ought , lie attempted to hold back ,
but Janotta would nou bo retarded. Ho
whipped up the orchestra , and when poor
roodt begced him to take it slower , the
irate conductor hissed back , sotto voce ,
the direction for Toedt to go to a place
ivhoro the "Mrsssah" is neyer given.
When it came Miss Winanl's turn , she
tried to stem the tide , but in vain. Janot-
: a proposed to show the tempos at which
: ho "Messiah" ought to go. When Nils-
ion began to sing she also found herself
jarried a'ong. ' This fight was
i drawn battle. Janotta con-
luctod a measure aa fast aa
10 thought it ought to go. Nilsson hold
in in her own time. When Janotta had
ilayod a measure ho waited for Nilsson
o catch up. By the time aho was
hiough poor Janotta was beside himself
ind forgot to bring in the chorus , "Glory
o God" but Nilsson turned to the chorus
ind fltartcd them in. At the intcrmisa-
on there was a lively time in the ante-
oom. Janotta declared that ho had
lover led so poor an orchestra. Ho suid
hat if ho could have thorn a week ho
: ould start thorn upon a moro artistic
lirection. The accident which kept the
rain back lie declared to bo a wicked do-
rice of Thomas , and the bolt of light
ling which struck the hall during ono of
ho concerts ho thought a heavenly mos-
ongor uiraed at Thomas but misdirected.
3y the end of the week the music began
o accollorato. The newspapers are
louring in oil and wino in the shape of
ntorviows with Toedt , Rommortz , Nils-
ion , Tomlins and members of the orches-
ra , by the end of which Mr. Janotta is
ikoly to consider himself a still moro ill-
isod man than ho had at first thought.
Ul of which shows how a festival some-
; imcs starts things.
