TIIE Illinois democrats will now go homo and scat their heads. LOGAN'S re-election illnntralca once moro thnt only the bravo dcaoro to win the fair. OMAHA never misses an opportunity for a reception or a banquet. Her hos- plUlity Ia equal to any oecanlon. MINISTER I'IIELPS hsa made hla llttlo bow to the qnocn. Mr. Lowell gracefully performed the Introduction act. i i AMONO the bills that have been de feated In the Illinois legislature Horizontal - tal Bill Is probably the worst laid out. TUB Black Eagle of Illinois wings his flight once moro to the national capital. Hla clipped wings have grown out again. THE Illinois legislature haa done ono peaceful thing besides electing Logan. It has passed a law regulating telephone rates. _ DOWN east when a lady buya n dross aho gats a spool of thread thrown In. In Omaha every lady who buys a spool of thrcid has a dross thrown In. The rowdy west is liberal and progressive. f No\v that the dead-lock haa been broken , and a senator elected , the long- Buffering tw-payera of Illinois are In hopes that the legislature will conclude Its business and adjourn at an early day. KEARNEY must feel delighted over Its now postmaster , who , according to a dis patch to the Republican , "set 'em up for the boys" when ho roseivod the news of his appointment. It was a gala day for the saloons. MAYOH BOYD ia moro aucsessful in uo- osrs ctiring the appointment of poBtmaatera than ho Is in the appointment of marabala and street commissioners. The poatmaa- kahe tors do not have to bo confirmed by the city council. IF there la ovldenco wanting to show that Omaha credit la as good aa gold , It la found In the fact that $100,000 of her funding bonds , drawing fi 70 per cent and running twenty years , command an average ago premium of § 1.03J. Ix speaking oftho , appointment of Mr Lathrop aa minister to Russia , \he \ Amer ican takes some comfort In the fact that an ox-confoderato haa not been sent to the country which throw Ita whole weight the confederacy. MR. CLEVELAND la credited with the : expression that It ia foolish to appoint men to ofllco who cannot bo confirmed. Ho will find out In the course of ovonls that ho has already made several blunders of thla character. WE have boon told that the managers of the bolt line claim that they had a right to cross Eighteenth street. Then why did they make the crossing on Sun day 1 It seems to ns that six days in the week la cnongh for a railroad to do anch work. TUB alleged dynamiters , Cunningham and Burton , have been convicted of treason oacd son and felony , and have been sentenced to penal servitude for life. Both prison crs assorted their innocence , and there are many people who wlil doubt their guilt. If they were innocent , however It does aeom rather strange that they could not provo that they had no connection 100all tion with the dynamite plot. In all probability justice has not boon misled [ Inlet this cue. TUB fact that Fred. Douglas has quiet ly purchased a pew directly in front of that occupied by President Cleveland , , In Dr. Sunderland'a church , has created 1 n rlpplo of excitement among the members of the congregation. They are said to be "annoyed. " Wo suppose that when they got to heaven they will bo just a much "annoyed" there by the pretence of colored folks. It la too bad that a separate heaven cannot be provided for colored people. THE Rev. George 0. Mlln , who aspires to bo o tragedian , upon being asked in Cleveland If It la true that ho swearj , admitted adIn mitted that ho occasionally indulges In the expreiaion "d n it. " Ho says that tlioro era exigencies in human life when the capacity for expression in ordinary language ia thoroughly Inadequate to the occasion. In other words , there are times when even a preacher at least feels Ukn swearing. If Rev. Mlln keeps oa ho may make a good actor. AN UNFORTUNATE AFFAIR. The Now Orleans exposition , while it moy have boon a success in the matter of exhibition , haa proved a financial failure. There are several reasons for this , princi pal among which la the fact that New Oilcans is not & soluble location for Bnoh an exposition. It ia not central enough to ntttaot & sufficient number cf people from all parts of the country to make the attendance profitable. Such an exposition , which can not be made to pay expenses without an enormous at tendance , mutt bo located aa nearly aa passible In the center of population , The talk , therefore , of continuing the oxposl tion another year would seem to bo very fooliih , as some ono will have to guaran tee the expenses , and it IB not likely that the citizens of Now Or leans will put up nearly $ -100,000 for that purpose. It la to ba regretted that Major Bnrko , the director general of the exposition , has become financially In volved , owing to hla connection with the affair. During the opening of the oxposl tlon ho becimc personally responsible for the debts contracted by the management to the amount of $150,000. It was ex pected that the gate rccjlpta would provo sufficient to cover thai , amount. In this ho was disappointed. It TTOS hoped , however , that some relief would bo obtained from the congressional appro priation of § 350.000 , but the decision of the attorney-general declared that no part of it conld'ho nsod in the payment of Louisiana creditors , and they now look to Major Bnrko for payment. It is understood that ho has surren dered both his and hla wire's property to satisfy these claims. Nothing remains of hla fortune except a tharo In the Times Democrat , and It la to devote his entire energy to that paper that ho re signed his place as director-general. Much sympathy la exproseed for Mr. Burkr , especially ns it Is known that ho refused the pay of $10,000 a year ns director-general voted him by the management - agomont , preforlng to tnko stock to the aamo amount in the enterprise , and giv ing such stock as n present to the Louisi ana State Agrlculturalcollego afterward. Ho haa given ample evidence of his pub lic ontorprlao and liberality and of honor as a man. Ho has done a great workfor Now Orleans , and the wealthy men of that city should not allow him to Icso a dollar. Before there is any more talk of continu ing the exposition Iho citizens of Now Orleans should pay nvery cent cf the ex position Indobtness for which Major Burke became responsible. If this is not done It will bo an everlasting disgrace up on the honor of the Crescent City. ADDING INSULT TO INJURY. A very curious case has coine to light in Omaha Involving the rights of the colored man and thoie of hla somewhat inferior brother , the white. It seems that when the Woman's Christian Temperance Union gave an entertainment in the opera home not long ago they Bent to a certain white minister in Omaha a complimentary ticket with reserved seat attachment. The seat was ailuatod In thnt part of the theatre which the manager haa always reserved for the use of colored people , and when the minister pesented - hia ticket he was refused the privilege to which he seemed entitled. The manager informed him that he could have the best seat possible among the white people , but could not sit with the colored people , because such n proceeding would be an infringement of the rules of the house. The minister insisted the manager firmly refused. The minister , very angry , left the house , but soon returned and renewed the struggle but without suc - cess . Some days elapsed and then the minister isof tor brought suit against the manager of the opera house , claiming that under the late amendments to the constitution a white man ahould hav every privilege to which a negro la entitled. Republican , This la a sample brick of the peculiar repnbllcaniim which tbo paper published by the chairman of the republican state central committee has exhibited since the election of Grover Cleveland. In the first place it suppressed the complaint of . the colored minister who was unlawfully deprived of his lights by the opera house manager , and now it adda Insult to in jury by lampoomlng and ridiculing the colored people. What cxcuso can tbo chairman of the republican atato committee make for anch a ttudlod but stupid attempt to belittle the vital principles involved In this owe ? Doea ho reflect the sentiment of the republican party ? If equality before - fore the law is to bo treated as a more sham and the rights of all men , regard less of race or color , are no longer to bo uphold and defended by the parly , then there la nothing left of republicanism. But even If the cardinal principles of re * publicanism wera not involved in this controversy there la aomo respect duo from a republican paper to law enacted bye , o republican legislature and approved by a republican governor , in consonance with the demand of the ropublloina of the State and nation. No democratic paper has dared to oppose or ridicule ! that law , and the democratic party in Ne braska would not dare to take Issue against It. It ia eminently in accord with the eternal fitness of things for the Repub \ lican to pursue such a course in the case at Boyd'a opera house. It Is consistent for once by demonstrating that its sup port of Mr. Boyd , member cf the demo- ioof cratlo national committee , for mayrr of Omaha , wai strictly non-partisan. PAUL BOYIO.V'S joke may appear very funny to him and other thoughtless persons - jror sons , but it bat proved a serious matter to Lieut. Gardiner , of the "Garnet , " and adW the aontinel who was on duty on the bow ) of the vessel when Boyton paddled np and placed his rubber bomb under it.ot Lieut. Gardiner ia under arrest for not otI1 taking Boyton ind his companions on board the "Garnot" after he captured then ) ) andtho sentinel has beonsontenced to foity five daya imprisonment. Perhaps tT haps this ia not the end of the matter. Our government may bo called upon io tjlvo Mr. Boyton a slight dose of punish ment , as ho haa camed two Innocent men to suffer on account of hla foolish- ncsi. Ho certainly had no right to do what he did , oven It waa joke , and the wonder is that ho and his companions wcro not ahot before they could glvo an explanation of their mjslcrlous conduct. Had Boyton and his associates boon taken on board of the "Garnot , " KB they would have been had the lieutenant per formed hia duly , they wonld have found themselves In an unpleasant predicament , from which they might have had some difficulty to oxtticato themselves. A BLOW AT OORPORA.TION TAX- DODGERS. The Illinois senate ia getting after the corporations which have no long success fully evaded tazatlon. A legislative committee hna boon at work In Chicago at Interval for two wcoka Investigating the methods of the Corporation tar- dodgera. The result disclosed that the gia companies , the atrcot railway compa nies , and the expensive business blocks in the heart of the city generally es caped with a 'nominal payment , and It wan shown that In the cato of numerous corporations no taxes whatever have boon paid In a number of years. When the atockholrlera of theao companies came before the com mittee iholr efforts to decry the value of their property would have been amnuog had it not been ao contrary to woll-kuown facia. The greater number of witnesses failed to appear , the com mittee not having the power to enforce their attendance , and aa a consequence tlio committee adjourned to Springfield , where wllnostoa cuuld bo compelled to respond spend to a subpoena. A 1)111 haa eincabeon pa-ssd by Iho asnato licensing telegraph companies , the object of which la to make them pay taxes. It provides that they shall make an annual ropoit of their grots rocelpla , of which they must pay into the state troaauiy three per cent. Thla ia a atop in the right direc tion and It ia to ba hoped that other corporations can bo reached in a similar way , ao that they can ba compelled to pay their share of taxation. The people are getting tired of giving away valuable franchlcos without receiving any compen sation whatever for them. If the cor porations that depend for their oxlatonco upon franchlecs granted by the state wonld only pay their taxes as fairly as private property holder * the people would not complain. TIIE substitution of the lighter for the heavier drinks , BS shown by the figures of the last twenty-five year * , is a social fact of some algnlficauca. Wo now drink moro beer and wine and less whisky. In I860 the population of the United States , In round numbers , was 31,000- 000 , at which time the consumption of spirituous liquors amounted to 80,000- 000 gallons. In 1884 , with a population of not lesa than 55,000,030 , the consump tion was lesa than 73,000,000 gallons. On the other hand the consumption of malt rqu ° ra hBB "SBn from 100,000,000 gallons in 1800 to 690,000,000 gallons last year , and that cf native wines from 1,800,000 gallons to 17,000,000 gallons. THE acquittal of Short , the dynamiter , who assaulted Phelan , Is ascribed to the fear which the jury hod for O'Donovan Rossa's throats to dynamite them if they did not bring in a verdict of acquittal. Whether this Is true cr not , it ia certain that O'Dcnovan Roasa ia capable of threatening anybody , and the more fact that ho la a dynamiter and has around him a daugeroua act of men. no doubt had aomo Influence upon the jury. DUKINO the month of April 59,943 Im migrants landed in the United States. Germany was the most numer ously represented , there being 18,101 German Immigrants. Ireland comes next on the list with 8,070 , and England and Wales next with 4,681. The Immi gration statistics for the month ending April 30 , show that 275,408 Immlgrantj landed in the United States during that period. This ts a heavy decreaa3 es com pared with the previous ton months dur ing which 371,625 Immigrant ! arrived here. DUUINO the campaign the republicans of East Mllford , Nobraaki , agreed with the democrats that the name of the town ahould bo changed and called after the successful presidential candidate. When application waa made to have the post- office called ' Cleveland" the t'eraccrats were informed by the department that there was already a poatoffico of that name In thla state. The democrats Inrdly know what to do now. Perhaps they will apply for the name ol "Grover , " but wo would suggest that Postmaster General Vilss do the hand sorao thing for his old rival , Dr. Miller , the "Mlllerc- by naming postofiioe - bnrK. " ' " THE author of "CalledBack" has been "called up. " Ho died at Monaco B few da ; a ago whither he had eono in hopea of recovering hla health. Mr. l'argua , who was known to his readers as "Hugh Conway - way , " had a remarkable though man , unknown 10 fame , and was engaged in mercantile pursuits , at the tame time giving come attention to literature. Mr. Fargus WM well along In middle life before a story from his pen first attracted attention , and he remained almost unknown until "Called Back , " by Us ingenlons plot and rapid succession of highly sensational Incidents , give him celebrity and fortune in a few weekr. "Dark Daya , " which'quickly followed , also had an Jmmensa sale. Tbo ot- prrlenco of Mr. Farjus ehows that a man rn&y achieve fsmo as a novelht after a buy life devoted to non-literary woik. LOGAN'S VICTORY. General Logan has at last boon ro- alcctid United States senator from 1111- noli , after a remarkable and closely con tested fight , It is a victory of which hem m y neil bo proud , and to him it Js aa great an honor as , if not greater than , an election to the vice-presidency would have bosn. It aflords an eximplo to the country of what perseverance and pluck can accomplish. The Lord helps those who < help thomsolvot. In this initsnco General : Logan haa been the plumed knight of Illinois , foremost In the fray- bold , bravo and undaunted. The mcril effect of this v'ctory upon the republicans of Illinois and upon the the pirly throughout the whole country cannot bo ever estimated. It shows that nbl leadership can win battles without patronage and without money. General L"gan had no offices within his gift , and no money to throw away. Ho wont Into the fight In Illinois with a single purpose , na the recognized loader of hii party In 111 linois , and his mcnly bearing and aylng qualities enabled hlu to carry oil thi prize. General Logan will now go back to the enato as an acknowledged leader , and Ith n fair prospect of heading the atlcnal republican ticket in 1888. IF the Cannd an govtrumcnt treats ebols as leniently as they have been reatod in the United S ates , Mr. Riol may yet become a prominent office-holder i the dominion. Wo wonld suggest tat Instead of trying him for treason , hat ho bo at onca pardoned and placed n charge of the Canadian Indian bureau FROM time to tlmo there has been a ight demand from London for confed- rote blllp , and the American people wcro it a loss to know of what use they could o to anybody except aa curiosities omo persona believed the absurd story hat they wera being bought np In hopea .hat eomo day they wonld bo paid. It ould eetm , however , from a discovery made at Castle Garden , Now York , thai IICBQ worthless bills are being used In orklng confidence games upon emigrants ust us they ere nbout to leave Europe or America. Ono of the emigrants , who 'ccoutly ' landed at Ois le Garden , hod In is p38BCBlon a ono-hundred-dollar con- erato bill , for which ho had been induced ) y a London money broksr , or rather a windier who represented himself to bo a bi rokor , to pay 420 marks in gold. This is about the only use to which the ccn- 'odorato bills can bo put , and wo shall foP" P" robflbly " hear of other emigrants who P"h have been swindled in a similar way. WESTERN NEWS. DAKOTA.

At ho 1 latt moment' , oa you know , tlu courage ago { to o imuiit sn'cidu filled the ministers nnd defeat waa bought off , but tha Inter ual situation ia morn alrtliml than ovor. The mlnlttnrial Daily Nowa to-day 0'J peaks J in a funeral tone cf the triumph > f the nhlgsin the cabinet deoltiou , uud > Tnlnly foreshadows disaster. The na ionallsta and the English radicals have > ccn augcm ! by the retention of some ol .ho . most oileiiBivo forms of coercion , nnd ho Irish liberals have boon repelled by the failure to comidtr land-market ro 'orms thla year and are scornful of I he raguo promito for the future. That Joed Randolph Churchill will drive a ergo portion of tlo lories ever to the Bouio eldo everybody assumes , and ho Is extremely cintidfut. Upon this point and tbuchanco cf radical prctanro fore tig Mr. Chamberlain and Sir Charles Dllko to resign the Immediate inurest centres , Tbo Dally News evidently ex- iccls the wont from both contingencies ind looks for a repetition of the cooll- .lon which overthrow Sir Robert Peul in 1845. L Bad as the outlook fur a ezreno Bin : loEO acsiion , the firabodluga among the Ibarals na to the effect cf the govorn- uu OB t'a course upon the coming election are far gloomier. Even the Times ad mits thnt the decision of the cabinet nakea Mr. Parnell king In Ulster , a ? wol aa In the thtoo other provinces. No ox > lanations ho promises , though they were u hundred fold ( Tractor and moro oxpllci than those offered yesterday , cm soften .ho nationalist wrath toward the whig > ranch of liberalism. The great Irisl vote In England and Scotland will bo j'umpod inorciloifl'y fir tlio tory candi latea whoiover a whig is opposed to them , with the effect to defeat many o most prominent liberal leaders. In otlui districts this vote will bo discreetly usec ; o aid the ultra radicals , and to widen the gulf between them and the libarals When it is remembered that tboro are nearly ahundrad districts where the Irish can tlldct the result , the poialblo cil'dct can bo realized. To-night's Echo de nounces the propaaed renewal of coercion and predicts that the English radical will bo pnctlcnlly united against it As for England , the Parnelllto leadcrj are jubilant over the situation , and they talk now of nlnoty-two seats t unload ol eighty. Much ts they like Dr Walsh too , nud long to ace him In Cardinal Mo Oabo'a p'aco as archbishop of Dnblin , as politicians they do not pretend to concea the fact that tbe lit ollhood of hla objoo tion adds to their strength. I am roiuc- tant to believe that the Vatican wil yield to theEngllshprossuro.but if It does the results will bo doubly dlseatrons. Il will hurt Rome and the church direc ly and deeply , and it will harm Ireland scarcely loss by loosening tbo centre ! which the piiests now exert on the side of order , In part by angering the people where the priests nro wnlgs , but more by enraglrg the prles's who are nationalists. This ministry's management of IrUl affairs was nevtr consplcloni for gooi judgment , but far and away the mosl inexcusable and foolish blunder of tbo series Is this bullying of the pope In'o affronting the whole Irleh Gathcllo element ment of the world. Indeed , so sentcleei and gratuitous does it seem , and so certain tain is It that the Vatican will cripple it self financially and morally with the Irlsl not only hero , but In America am Australia , that the peop'o will refuse t believe that Dr. Walsh will be until the official norra actually cornea.
