Now that Ihrlholdi'a atatuo of "Lib
erty enlightening the world , " has boon
formally presented to the United States ,
wo would like to know when * thu formal
presentation of the ataluo of Justice on
the dome of the now Douglas county
court house will take place.
THO Denver wnlorworka company is
charged with playing n very nharp game
upon the people of that city. The iirtc-
aian wells , it Booms , uro injuring its bus ! '
ncaa , and in order to decrease the nrtc
oiau nupply of water it has dug a number
of wells and ia now Hirning the flow from
Uioao wills into the Platte river.
Tun annual meeting of the Society of
the Army of the Tonriessoo will bo hold
at Like Alinnotonka , August 13 and 14.
It will bo ft notable ovont. General
Shormim will precido , and General Grant
will bo present , together with other
noted warriors. General Grant will de
liver an address , which will bo something
in the nature of a farewell to the army
and to the people.
COUNCILMAN Fonn says that tlnlfcrald
roachco every property holder in this
city. The property-holders must bo
made up of a very aolect few. There is
no doubt that the Herald Ima a fair cir
culation among the heavy real estate
and but well-in
owners capitalists no -
formed person pretends ( hat it reaches
0110 out of fifty people who own small
cottagoa or live in tenement houses.
IV the sccrotary of the interior would
adopt the method of the Ohorokoo Bhoriif
in removing wire fences in the Indian
territory , the troapassora on the public
domain would not bo obliged to pay law-
yora to try "teat" cases. The trcaspass-
ors , however , prefer the method of the
Bccrotary of the interior , who allowa the
fences to remain until the "tost" cases
are decided in court.
Tun original estimate of the cost of
the Panama canal was 8120,000,000 , and
the time required for its * construction
was Boven yearu. According to the re
port made by Lieut. Brown to the too-
rotary of the navy , about ono-half of the
money has'boon expended , and nearly
hnlf the time has elapsed. It ia his
opinion that the enterprise will not bo >
completed without the expenditure ) of a
much greater amount of money and time
pian at first estimated. About 5,000,000
cubio metres of earth 1ms boon excavated ,
11 \ which is only one-fifteenth of the whole
estimated excavation. Lieut. Brown
, thinks about ono-thirtioth of the work
has been done only.
TUB praotico that some railroada hare
of withholding the wages of thoii * em
ployes for two or three months , and oven
longer , not only crnatcs a hardship , but
it is a great injustice. It is not ourpria
ing that employes , who are thua unjustly
deprived of the uao of their wages , should
robot end crcnto disturbances in order to
force the companies to settle their do
.Dianas. The railroada certainly have no
.right to force a loan from their employes
by withholding wages , which in the aggregate -
grogato amount to a largo sum , the inter
cat on which , oven' for two or three
momlm , is no insignificant matter. The
interest on ihis money , m worth as much
to the employes as it is to the railro&d
companies. The system is simply an
outrageous robbery , and ehould bo pro-
bibltod by q law , which should also pro.
vide that the wages of railroad operatives
uhould have precedence of all other
claims for the tame reasons prevailing ii :
the mechanic's lion lawa and in the laws
regarding the assignment of bankrupt
estates.

SAJSGJiA'T AND JUSMAKCh'
In nn extended interview in ( ho Now
York Times ox-MinUtcr Sargent intelli
gently sols forth the troubles between
himself and Bismarck , and discussea the
next German chancellor's policy , Ac
cording to Minister Sargont , Bismarck ia
trying to do the thinking for all Germa
ny. The fact is that some of his ideas
are very crude , and when thcso ideas
moot with opposition ho at once bocomca
an enemy of the man who daroa to ploco
an obstacle in hla way. In accordance
with the exigencies of his party politics ,
which required a strong interest from the
and holding interest of Germany , Bis
marck first shut out American potatoes ,
and then ho followed this up by success-
voly excluding canned moats , canned
irovisions and American pork. The ex
clusion of our pork was done in the in-
crest of Gorman pork , which are very
argo , but it placed a hardship upon the
poor people. Bietnarck instead of put-
, ing on a high protoclivo tariff , thus treat-
ng the United States in the anmo way
that ho treated other nations , not only
ruled out our pork entirely , but declared
it unfit to eat , thus adding
insult to injury. Bismarck thought
thcro waa no danger from
retaliation on Iho part of the United
States , but when Minister Sargent urged
that retaliatory measures bo taken , ho
protested nnd "raised his hands in holy
horror. " And when Sargent gathered
statistics of diseased Gorman pork , Bis
marck became ulill moro enraged.
Next cntno the Lnakcr episode. Min-
istnr Sargent says that Herr Lacker was
ono of the greatest nnd moat honest
statesmen that Germany over produced.
: Io had douo as much na any man toward
making the great Gorman empire what it
s to-day. IIo had stood by Bismarck in
nearly every proposition ho had ever
made , though , of course , ho had differed
with him on some points of policy. IIo
occupied a position that would Invo
nado him highly respected in any nation
.hat honored liberty. Ho had opposed
Bismarck as Northcoto has opposed
Gladstone , or as Randall has opposed
the administration hero , and chould have
joon respected by Bismarck no thcso are
roapootod by their governments. Dying
n the United States , and being a member -
bor of the reichstag , congress passed the
Laakor resolution. It was a proper thing
to do , and had Laakor been an
English atatosrnnn , England would have
ocoived it with thankfulness. But as
Jismarck looks upon any opposition an
onmily , ho could not ondiiro the idea
hat this man ohould bo praiaod by the
Vmorican congress. Ho regarded it as
lotracting from hin own fame. In pro-
outing the resolution , Minister
Sargunt simply obeyed instructions ,
'hereupon ho waa , auDJeetod to
rcsh attacks from the organa of the
Gorman government , but ho atood his
ground manfully , nnd throughout the
rholo controversy conducted himself in a
nannor highly lionorablo.to aaudwiohod'n
ils country.
Mr. Kaason , his successor , will pro-
> ably encounter no difficulty , for the
eoson that the Laskor incident ia a
matter of the past , and for the further
oason that ho will endeavor to avoid
very antagonism to the imperial
hancollor. The relations of the United
States and Germany nocd not necessarily
o of an unfriendly character because
rllmstor Sargent has incurred the dia-
) loaauro of Bismarck nnd his ministry ,
unless , indeed , the Gorman ftovornniout
seeks to force a quarrel upon us by rude
and discourteous treatment of our repre
sentative.
IT is not likely now that there will bo
any baljot token in the democratic na
tional convention before Friday. The
platform committee will not bo ready to
report before this morning. Then the
wrangling ever the platform nnd the two-
thirds rule will probably occupy all of to
day. It ia also certain that nobody will bo
laminated on the first or second ballot ,
unless on the second ballot n number of
changes uro recorded before the com
mencement of the vote. On the first
sallot Dalawaro will vote for Bayard , G ;
Indiana for McDonald , SO ; Massachus
etts for Butler , 280hio ; for Thurman10 ;
miBylvanift for Randall , 58. Iloro nro
158 votes. It takoa 035 to nominated.
If ICO votes should bo given from all the
other states to other candidates , no noni
inatlon would bo renphod on the first
ballot. It ia likely California will cast 10
votes for Tlurnmn ) on the first ballot and
that Texas will also cast nearly all its 20
votes for Thurman. The vote of Miss
ouri will bo divided. On a ballot Tuesday
evening Iowa cast only 21 votes for Cleveland
land aud 5 for others. Bayard will get
some votes from nearly every southern
state. McDonald trill got a number.
Thus it is nearly certain that Gor. Clove-
land's vote on the first ballot will bo
scarcely 90 above a majority. There are
those who believe
that a majority once
attained , two-thirda will speedily follow.
This may or may not bo attained.
ANEW firo-proof building material is
now being introduced , which if demon
strated to bo a success , ought to find
great demand in every city. It is called
terracotta lumber , and it la claimed to bo
absolutely firo-proof , aawoll as very rca
aonablo in cost. It is mid that ono or
moro rooms can bo finished with it , and
ao great ia its resistance to heat thai
hours would bo required for fire to pas
from ono apartment to another , It is
certainly entitled to clcso investigation
by every architect and builder. Omaha
so far lias cscapod any very eorioua con
flogration , but aho la liable at any time to
liavo a awoeping firo. Ai a rule our
brick buildings contain a great deal o
lumber in their construction , the wulli
are generally very thin , the firo-vrulU .
are few and far between , and numerous.
frame buildings yet retrain aaudwiohod' ' '
n between the brick structure If n
xoccss has been invented by means of
which lumber can bn made absolutely
fire-proof , It certainly Is a great in von-
.Ion , Such lumber used in the construc
tion of buildings would provcnUhooprcad
of fires nnd materially reduce Iho insur
ance rates.
recrimination nro the
order of Iho day in the dot.iocratio na
tional convention. Boss Ko'.ly , of Tam
many , ia not only down on Cleveland but
several other omlnontptatoamon from the
Empire state. When asked how ho
would like a ticket with McDonald nnd
Slocum , or Thurman nnd Slocum , Kelly
replied , "Slocum is no good. Ho has
boon false to the party ; is not worthy of
connidoration. " Kol.y didn't mention
liow often ho has boon "no good" to the
democratic party.
Til KIIK aoorns to bo a great deal of
loosonesa in the enforcement of the fire
limit ordinance. Frame buildings nro
from time to time erected within tho-fire
limits without attracting the attention of
the chief engineer. No such buildings
should bo permitted , nnd furthermore no
building ahould bo nllowed to bo eroded
fn any part of the city without a permit.
MA YOU McuriiY has tnKon n stop In
the right direction by instructing Mar
shal Cummings to proceed agaitmt nil
saloon keepers who have not paid their
license accoiding to the requirements of
the city ordinances.
Foil the first time in the history of the
United States the president has appoint
ed a colored minister to bo chaplain of n
colored regiment. A colored chaplaiu'a
prayers ought to bo as effective for the
colored troops as these of n white minis-
tar.
Mr. . MANTON MxunLH , late of the Now
York World , nnd chief of Jay Gould's
democratic literary bureau , has volun
teered to write the democratic platform
at Chicago. This is ntrictly in accord
with the eternal fitness of things.
FI.OWEU'S ainglo vote cost him nt
least 850,000. At that rate 534 more ,
necessary to nominate him , would prob
ably burst his "bar'l. ' "
IT is the Hold aguins : Cleveland , with
; en chances to ono that the field will bo
jcatcn.
FLOWKII'.S aohtaiy vote is like the last
rose of summer. It ia left blooming
alone.
J. STERLING MOKTON nnd Mr. Book-
waiter have locked horns.

committal on the tariff.
WEST OF THE MISSOURI.
Nebraska and adjoining states and ter
ritories are on the threshold of
what promises to bo the
> est harvest in ton years. All condi-
ions hove boon favorable sofar especially
or corn , of which a largo yield ia ex-
looted. The throe severe storms of last
week were confined to narrow bolts of
country and the damage waa compara
tively slight. In reply to circulars sent
o the clerks of all counties in Nebraska
asking for a brief report on "tho prcs
ont condition of growing crops , " wo have
received replies fiom twenty six counties
representing all important grain raising
diatricta in the state. The answers ,
with the single exception of Gogo couuty ,
show the crop prospect to vary , in the
nngungd of the officials , from "good" to
"A No. I. " The following are the ro-

The completion of the Konosur branch
of the IS. & M. , ou July 4 , will reduce
time aud distance between Omaha and
Denver ono hour or about thirty miles ,
The road branches off from the Kearney
line at Kanosaw , In Adams county , and
runs southwest through Kearney and
Llarlan counties to Oxford , where it joins
the main Ropublicau valley line , The
road lull bo open for business next
week. It will bo the main line from
Lincoln west instead of the present route
by way of Red Cloud. The road passes
through a fine farming country already
wall settled , and capable of supporting a
largo population. There are several
thriving towns on the road and consider'
able local business will bo obtained from
the start.
Bishop liroworof , the Methodist church ,
recently told a reporter of the Sun lUver
, of Montana , that "tho territory is
not n good coautry for churches. It Is
not very difficult to get money to build
thorn , but it is hard to got any ono inside
them after they are built. The old-timo
Montanfans don't care about religion ; the
fault is in the extreme raronoHi ot thii
atmosphere , I presume. Wo look to the
.coming pilgrims "to fill our churches.
The rovoroud gentleman struck a tender
spot in the old Montana heart whoa ho
uttered the above sonllmtut , The old
timers are death on innovations , either in
religion , politics or personal appearances.
Shufc out from the rushing railroad world
tor twenty years , the hardy pioneers took
their religion in somi-aunual doses , and
weighted the contribution box with nug-
gota whenever n strangling preacher ap
peared. They wcro prepared for war at
nil times , and thus preserved the pcaco.
Whuu Governor Crosby struck the terri
tory a few years ago and introduced swal
low tail coats , white vesta and doeskin
pantaloons , the Indignation of the natives
reached such a pitch that J. Schujlor
Look to the woods and modified his rai
ment. His predecessor wai a homespun
statesman who tucked his buckskins and
bowio-knifo in his boots and rustled with
the boya at poker and forty-rod in casks.
So when Crosby Introduced the "airs" of
the cast ho was met by a snub on every
corner and frontier society shut ita doors
in hin fnco. The coming of the railroad
and the rush of tenderfoot ha made his
position endurable , his appetite is im
proving , and Poverty Gulch , is gradually
putting on the frills of civilization.
It is an extremely dull day when Den
ver fails to make a strike of same kind
to keep its courage up. The latest ia an
oil strike , twelve miles from the city , on
the Miller ranch. The Miller well was
[ iut down to prospect for coal and reached
o _ 400-foot sand without finding the
di'fliroa bitumen. For the last ninety
foot that were sunk , however , the drill
penetrated a formation of shale which
contained a fine grade of lubricating oil
The well has boon pumped and the yield
of oil has been something like two
barrels a duy , which are most flattering
rcsultti indeed. The lubricant has been
analyzed by an export chemist and found
to bo of the purest character and the moat
desirable gravity.
The Miller people have abandoned the
idea of coal prospecting , and will sink
the tvcll still dcppor in the hope of find
ing a botfor supply of petroleum. This
ii the first discovery of oil in the vicinity
of Denver , and the public await with in
terest the development which ia to bo
made at the Miller farm.
The people of So ward county , Nob.
are still hopeful that the Union Pacific
will build n branch through the county.
The Reporter says : " The surveyor *
of the company are again in the county
juokiug an easy and paacticablo route to
Seward City. From thcro the line is
surveyed to the Kansas line , and it
looks na though the company meant busi
ness.
ness."On
"On Friday the gang went from near
this city to the northeast part of thr ,
county. The Reporter was informed
that there were three lines staked out
across the country from Valparaiso to a
point near this city , and they were or-
florod to go back and lay out another oiiu
Our informant stated that some of these
lines were made so that the company
could know whcro to ror. their road ao as
to roach the location of the coal prospect
ing operations. What will bo the result
of all this is hard to tell , but it i * nion
than- likely that there will either be r.
road built without asking any assl&tance ,
or there will bo a propositiondirect from
the managcra of the Union Pacific , f i r
bends to e.id in the construction of the
lino.
The mines of iho Black Hills are now
bolng worked by the most improved
methods , and the yield of gold and silver
pays I a good per cent , on the capital in
vested. The development of the ere
beds 1 is concentrated in the handa of a
1f
few f strong companies , principally the
Ilomestako 1 and Do Smot. The annual
report of the director of the mint states
rt the t gold yield ofi the United States for
1883 ] was $30,000,000 , and the silver
yield § 10,200,000. Of this amount Da
kota is credited with having yielded
$3,2UO,000 in gold and § 150,000 in silver.
California ( and Colorado alone , of all the
states and territories , exceed Dakota in
eL jold L production. The figures , says the
Black IMls World , are far from stating
the full amount of Dakota's yield , while
nearly the full amount yielded by the
older mining regions is given. The gold
yield of the Hills for 1883 , could a cor-
root record have been kept , would cer
tainly roach ever $4OCO,000. The pro
duct is increasing rapidly , great quartz
mills nro going up , now mines are being
opened , nnd the year 1831 will nhow 11
Croat gain , while 1885 will in all prob
ability very nearly double the product of
1883. J
The big bridge over the Snake river on
Oregon Short Line will bo completed in
a very ahort time and the connection
with the Oregon Navigation company's
lines will bo made early next fall. The
distance from the bridgn to Huntington ,
the intended point of junction with tlu >
0. R. & N , is about four aud a half miloe.
The track will follow along the Burnt
river , which will bo crossed four times.
Those amnller bridgea are now in course
of construction. Trains ever this great
continental line will bo running into
Portland , it in anticipated , about the first
af October.
The contest of the Union Pacific and
Northern Pacific for control of the
Oregon Navigation company resulted in
the defeat bf bath , The Oregon compa
ny hold the key to the transcontinental
traflio that seeks or cornea from Oregon
ports. It owns and occupies all the
available grounds alongside the Columbia
river through the puss of the Cascade
mountains , a distance of aomo seventy or
eighty miles. Neither the Union Pacific ,
with iu short line via Baker city , nor
the Northern Pacific can roach Portland
and tide water without connecting with
this company's road cast of the moun
tains. To bo Biiro , the Northern Pacific
oould proceed irom the mouth of Snake
river through the Tacoma paaa , and
thence to Puget Sound , but the grader
would bo heavy , and it ia the opinion of
practical men that the longer route
through the Columbia pass is preferable.
And the Union PaoiUo has no other
way , Eanh of these transcontinental
lines h&s , therefore , tried to get control
of the Oregon railway it Navigation com
pany , but the recent election allows that
it held out against all offers. It ia not
believed that arrangements have boon
practically oflootod whereby both lines
will enjoy the outlet on reasonable
terms.
The Liraraio Boomerang asHorts that
the Union Pooifio has come out on top in
the fight of the narrow gauge roads of
Colorado. It ia claimed that the Denver
& Rio Grande Western will couneat with
the South Park road at Gunnison and
ahut out the Burlington road from ita
Lake connection. This consumma
ted nnd the Union Pacific will have two
distinct lines between Denver nnd Salt
Like , without nny competition whatever.
Iho taking off of the two passenger
trains , which wore put on solely aa a
competitive move against the Denver it
Rio Grande nnd its western extension ,
would scorn to give color to this report
that nn underssanding between General
Dndgo nnd the Union Pacific had been
reached.
