WHEN Dr. Miller got5 all the domo- cratio oditora installed aa poalnustcra Merion will ba deader Ui n a dsor-nnil. THE next oxcurolon from Omahn will to to Ahskn. It will bo principally in the interest of the l&dlcs a sealskin ex cursion. IF John Roach had named hla VOJHO ! the "William 0. Whitney" instead of the "Dolphin , " it would probably have boon accepted. Dn. BItLLEit wants to plant democratic oditora in every Nebraska paatoflice. The question h whether the poatofliues will pay enough to support the cditora. "Wo would suggest that each democratic editor bo assigned aa postmaster to three or four towns. great hue and cry raised by the secretary of the navy over John Roach's Dolphin is merely an attempt to make political capital. In the duo coursa of time , when the Dolphin has boon re painted and its name changed to sorao- thing more democratic , "Samuel J. Til- don , " "Robt. E. Loo" or "Stonewall Jaokaon , " it will bo accepted and paid for. THE system of renting out negroes ID Virginia under the vagrant law of the otato , which permits the auction sale ol vagrant labor to the highest bidder , ro' minds one of very much of slavery days , While the lair applies to whlto vagranfc as well as to ' colored , the chances arc that the authorities take special pains tc prove vagrancy agilnst negroes , and lei the whita vagrants go. Vicroii Hoao , whoao death is an nounced by cable , was always an carries friend c f the laboring clain. On sovora decisions ho delivered fervid public ad dresses In behalf of the worklngmen Furthermore , ho was a friend of thi Irish , as ho TTDS of every oppressed pee pie.

" Wi Imagine however that while Mayor Boyr. may have the mantle , it is big enough ti cover Dr. Miller alsj , and that'like thi Siamese twins , what ono does the othoi ImoiYB and endorses. THE. city council at Its last meotlnj adopted a resolution locating fire com pany No. 3 on Joflujrson Square and di rooting the chief engineer to have tempo rara buildings located thereon. This is mlttako , as the location is not contra enough , It brings No. 3 too near No. 1 and loaves the south and southwest part of the city too much unprotected aa th run from Jefferson Square will bo alto gothcr too long , No. 3 should ho locate nearer Farnam street. Wo would Bug goat that come lot either on Barney o Howard ! ) or on the cross ntroots , nca Farnam , bo leased and a temporary build log bo erected thereon. Tin : Omaha secretary of the Knighl of Labor asks why the BKB has failed t keep Its readers fully informed about th Denver & Ro ! Qraudo strike , On sources of information are associate proas dispatches and exchanges. W have published everything that we hav received In the press dispatches , whlc arc supposed to give the news in con doused shape. Such papers as wo hav received from Denver have regarded tli strike as Ill-advised and premature. to the real merits of the case wo kno nothing at this distance , and do not wla to express an opinion whore wo are nc familiar with the details. TIIUIIK are eight thousand appllcatlor In the atato department for the thrc hundred consular places. The great de maud for tbeio positions li explalnc by the fact that a pot In the United States consular so : vice In any of the eastern countries car xios with it very great benefits to th holders. In Tuikoy and Egypt this i especially true , and men have been know to bo willing to pay good round sums fc appdntrucnts , in ppito cf the fact ths the fees attached are Insignificant. TJi majority of the placea are eo Eiiull that i Is naturally out of the quoitlon to send ina _ from the United States , and th coiuul general is therefore cuthorfzsd t appoint ouch agonta as are needed , 0 ono ozoeslon , it is atttsd , that a ccnsrj in Tuikcy made § 50,000 out of the or , polntment of coueu'ar agents , who pei haps mace ! loia than § 5 In fee ] each , REORGANIZE THE POLICE. The Omahn police force should DO thoroughly reorganized at an early day , This city is becoming metropolitan in ilzo and character , acd its police force should bo correspondingly improved. At present the force Is made up of all eotts of material small men , big men , lazy men , active men , and.men that are cf no use whatever. There is no uniformity in size , character or ability. All this la owing to the pernicious method of mak ing appointments to the polica force a matter of politics. So long AS political affairs are allowed to enter into the po- co force ao long Trill the force bo com- OEod to a largo extent of political vorltca who ate in no way ttod to fill the position. The very rat thing to do in reorganizing ho force is to abolish politics from any omtdcration whatever in making np- ointments. The force should bo placed n a regular army footing with regard to IclpUno , physical rcqnltcmonts , and romotlon. Every member now on duty , nd every applicant should bo examined s to physical qualifications. No man r fifty years cf ago should bo allowed n the fotco. All applicants should bo bo- ween the agoi of 21 and 35. The itandard height and weight ahould bo not ots than five feet and ton Inches and 150 ounds. Every member or applicant hould bo examined as to his eye sight , i perfect vision is very Important to policeman. No man who cannot road , nd write is fit to bo a policeman , nd this ahould bo an essential require ment. Applicants possessing all those nallficatlona should bo nut en duty on irobation for a certain period , after hichtholr names should bo sent into the ouncil and confirmed , and after having nco been thus inado policnmon they ihonldnot bo removed without cause. After the organization of the force upon inch a basis as wo have outlined , rules hould bo adopted for discipline , promo- Ion and gradation of pay. A record of deportment should bo kept and men whoso deportment is good should have .ho first chances of promotion and In crease of pay. The salaries should be graded for at knit three years , being ilightiy iccreasod each year. This would provo an inducement to the men to make a good record. Such a plan as wo have suggested would prevent any pensioners , strikers , invalids , chronic bummers and oafors , and political favorites from be coming policemen , The police could thus bo made an efficient body of men , metropolitan in appearance , and an honoi to the city. A LEGAL FAROE. The Brighton rancho trespass case it again in the courts , and the ludicrous spectacle ia presented of the cationa government defending It ] title to the public domain against a band of forolgt cattle barons. A surveyor has been op pointed to "view and locate" the fence which stretches around forty thousanc a or 03 of land in Caster county , and wit nesses have boon summoned to give tin color of justice to a legal farce. Thi simple facts are , the cattle cquattdts havi fenced In government land and preventoc settlement thereon by brute foico. Will a show of wealth and well-paid lawyers the plea is made that the land fenced Ii unfit for tilling , and should bo loft as E free grazing ground for cattle. Thi aquattera by their own aots bclio th < words of their lawyers. No herds bul their own are permitted within the enclosure closure , and the stray cattle o ! sottlon caught on the range are promptly branded and added to their herds. But the law's delay is exactly what thi rancho people want. It gives them timi to perfect the plans they have laid to secure cure title to the range. The small arm ] of cawboys employed by the company have filed on the land under the homestead stead , pre-emption and timber culturi nets , and a number of outsiders h&vi been induced to file claims and soon afte sell out to the company. In this way th cittlo barons will secure fighting tltlo i the beat of the land , and so bocloui the title to the remainder that few sot tleiM will care to ventureon the land Theeo are the methods and the plans o this band of prairie pirates , whoso claim and pretensions act as a stone wall to settlement tlemont In Cutter county and prevent homes being built and farms cultivated And yet the national government fall Into the cquattcra' trap and goes int court for authority to rcmovo obstructln trespassers from the public domain , THK clvil-tervico system of Now Yor is to bo introduced In Milwaukee. It : to bo hoped that it will bo adopted I Omalia. Wo believe it will find its wa into every important city of the country There is no question , says the Now Yor Times , that appointments for morl tested by competition and probation , ai as great an advantage for the public bus ness of a city as for that of the state , not oven greater , tinco almost the entii work of a municipal "government" purely administrative , involving the o : erclso of no discretion i\i to which pollt cal parties could possibly differ. Th final application of the moiit system I American cities will bo brought aboi when the tax-payers realize its value. IK dlsoneeing the recent inoculation Ir ventlon of Dr. Ferran , the New Yor Tribune says that it "seems to have bee a genuine Invention , sought from th firtt .with clear purpose and scicnlifi knowledge , " but that it may barrgarde by some people as a " grinding monopoly ely , " and that there will bo a general die position to growl because its benefits ar not obtainable- without any cott what over. The inference from the Tribune' rcnmks Is that the invention Is to b treated aa a " patent. " If the Invento Is to bo rewarJefl in any way it seam that ho ahould bo compensated by the various governments , to that bis "Inven tion " could bo free to all. IT was generally supposed that the citato of Wendell Phillips was worth sev eral hundred thousand dollar. ) . The an nouncement , therefore , that his executors have found it to bo woith only about $8,000 causes considerable surprise. The BbtinKago la explained by the fact that his supposed fortune consisted mainly In wild cat stocks , the face value of which repre sented neaily a million dollars. His in vestments proved very unfortunate , and the result shows tlut ho was not a careful , conservative man of business , OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. Rntala's refusal to accept the British proposals has again raised serious appre hensions concerning the poaca of Europe. If Russia persist ? upon terms which Eng land cannot accept without surrendering all her pretensions as ono of the great great powers of Europe the irrepressible onllict can not ba pat off much longer. Ivon if a now settlement is 'finally made ir arrived at the British public will can- nuo to entertain grave apprehensions r the future of the Indian empire , If lutaia does not go to Herat now a con- ant lookout will bo kept for her going t some later period. ThU apprehension i doubtless shared by Mr. Gladstone and Is ministry , and their fears for the safety if India are doubtless rcsponsiblo in great measure for the abandonment f the Soudan , after such a costly war. 'ho ' British troops have already ovacn- , ted the Mahdi's country , and the now no Is to bo drawn at Wady Haifa. Snakim , the port on the Rod Sea , Is , ot to bo abandoned until it can bo akcn by some civilized power to hold it igalnst the Arabs. For several months bas been besieged by Of man Dlgna , , nd not even the slaughter of his Arabs tvhilo at their prayers has put n stop to ho persistency of the siege. This is the amo Osman Dlgna whoso discomfiture nd disappearance from the field has been nnounccd so often in the last three monthc. Ho has a wonderful vitality liter so many overthrows ! The Turks would llko to take posses- icaalon of the Soudan aa the suzerains oi Igypt. But they want to use Egypt as ho base of their operations , and to this neither the English nor the khcdlvo will agroo. A Turkish garrison in Cairo would bo a form of "multiple control" oven OSB acceptable than that in which Franca liad a share. But the Turks do not seem tc oe their way to conquering the Soudanese 'ram ' the coast of the Rod Sea. Neither heir naval resources nor the resources of .hat coast as a base of operations , luvita ho experiment. The approach of a general election in England has already stimulated the po- ittcal associations to renewed efforts to nlluonco public opinion one way or an other. The junior liberal association , which has already extended from London to some of the provincial cities , proposes - poses to enlarge its membership still further in the tame direc tion. In the conservative stronghold , especially , these provincial asioclatlom are to bo established and strengthened , Political enlightenment by such meane , though not always sa tie factory , Is still generally an advance in the right direc tion ; and the fear of defeat , which le doubtless now prominently before liberal eyes , will tend to make those missionary efforts strenuous. The British home policy has railed c disturbance of no ordinary dimensions by the determination of the government to renew the Irish crimes act , which wa < originally passed for n specified lime only , It now threatens to bring on a crisis and provoke political combinations which may seriously endanger the government in the 'orthcoming ' elections. The crimes act , as is well known , TTOE originally directed against the national patty , which had Irish independence for ts purpose. The perpetration of mur ders , the formation of secret so cieties for violent purposes , the Intimidation of juries , the collapse of the police administration , riots , boy. cottingf , and disturbances of the ponce , which the ordinary Iws of the land wore not nbio to roach , led up to its p&csago. It was a very stringent law. It author ized special commission courts of three judges , instead of juries , to try cases ol tbo above kind. It gave the attorney- general the right to obtain change ol venue , and , If ho did not wish a jury , to proceed without ono. It nude intim idation and boycotting punishable with sovora penalties. It gave the lord lieutenant the authority to prohibit anj public meeting which ho believed would bo duugorouu to the peao. The odioue Oaifow clause enacted that if a porsor were out of his placeof residence one hour after sunset or before sunrise he should bo liable to arrest and imprison- men * ; unless ho cou'd ' make satisfactory explanations or provo that ho was ou < upon some lawful occupation. It pro vided for the suppression of nowspapen containing matter judged ! by the Ion lieutenant to bo of a seditious character It also enabled the police to search fo and seize arms arid document "suspected or intended to b < used for the purpoco of or in connoc tlon with any secret society existing foi criminal purpose ; , " and also anthorlzei magistrates to examine nitnessoa whei an offense had been committed , thougl no persons charged with the goffoosi might bo present. The last olauso in th bill , known as "tho blood tax , " author ized the lord lieutenant to award com pansatlon , to come ont of the pcckots c the people , when any uno was maimed o murdered , if the crime were agrarian o the outcome rt unlawful associations. Coercion pure and simple , untomperai by a single concession , supplies the rally Ing cry which will unite all classes an inspire them with the enthusiasm of ho and just resentment which will brln ; everybody to the polls in the gonoro election. The ParnellUoa , after much dellbera tlon , have virtually decided upon thoi programme. The torlea must bo oxter minatcd In Ulster by u combination wltl the whlgs and a partition c seats between them and the Par uollltos. In England Irishmen wll vote the tory ticket , except Ji such rara cases SB those of Oowcn , La bnuchoro and Thompson of Durham am Storey , of Sunderhr.d. The extenniua tlon of Irish oranguuon will remove thi [ treat obstacle to the English section o tbo tory party examining Irish demand iu n spirit of poialblo compromise , whili in England the Irish vote turning eve : forty or fifty seats will prevent the liberals from obtaining that ewcrplng majority which the Paruollltcs now consider ono of the gravest dangers of their fuluro ciuso. The manner in which the war with Franco was brought to an end has strengthened greatly the rar party In China. It is Russia that they propose to turn upon next , and they demand a de limitation cf the Russian empire on their side. For years past the Russian line has como lower down the eastern coast of Asia , until it is not very distant from Pokln. This tnakos the Chinese more sensible than did French aggression 'n Tonquln , Pckin la the vital ganglion n the huge polyp called China. A clew .t . it is the only means of affecting the lolicy oi the ruling cattc. And to Pokln ho Russians are now much too near for Chinese comfort. It is donbtfcl whether thorumoranf an mponding war between Russia and Eog. and suggested this now rnovo on China's art. Conceit and cunning are so nearly alanccd In the character of the Chinese , hat it la hard to'sjy rrhlch of the two is ppormost at any ono time. Their cun- Ing would suggest a use of the troubles iQtwoen the two European powers. Their conceit would lead them to think hcinsclvos a match for Russia without ngland'a aid. The nowa that Russia hag demanded .nd . secured the release of Ayoub Khan , , nd intends to nao him asn claimant to ; ho ameorahlp of Afghanistan , wears an Ir of probability. Mho has all along irotcsted to the shall of Persia against iis enforced detention ; and If she has at aot issued a demand for his release , it will be not at all surprising. Nor is it at all unlikely that the shah has conceded her demand. Russia is the power that 'an ' most easily aesiil him ; and to refuse o comply with her demand would pccdlly lese him his throne. And should it provo that Russia has demanded the release of Ayoub Khan , it is evident that affairs with England are far from bolng settled. Russia , in such a case , proposes to establish a status in Afghan istan. And this will practically amount o the control cf that country. If the present ameer is not auQlciontly concil iatory , she makes it evident than she has another ready , who will place him on the throne of Cabul. Russia has gained , point by point , all she has been striving for ; anil England's woaknois has been skill fully availed of in making the moat rapid progress toward the Indian border she has over succeeded in doing. And if at ono stroke she can plant horaelf in the seat of authority al Oibr.l , she will have accomplished hoi object in that direction and will bo pre pared to move en Persia , The chances are that she will at least make an en trance into Afghanistan. Whether she will gain open and nncoccaaled control ol that country at once la doubtful. It is by threatening everything tbat she wil gain most ; and she has started , it ii Ikely , on this last etjgo of diplomatic ad venture. And this step will at least leac to Eomo rcsaltr , whether all she atms a' ' remains tj bo soon. She is wily and audacious. The sturdy opposition of the Austral ians has prevented Franco from scttlncj np a penal color-y in the Sotith Sea. Sc the Brhson-Freycinet ministry announce their purpose to make French Gnluna into such a colony. Herotofoto , politi cal prisoners have been sent to Cayenne , but never criminals. The rapidity with which the form oi escaped from the set tlement , forewarns us aa to trhat will happen when the criminal scum ol French society is carted over to the American continent. Even from Australia convicts made tholr way to ui. We have escaped convicts from Botany Bay living in this very city. Are wo to put up with a system which the peopleof Australia would not ? Shall wo not rather toll Fiance to keep her criminals at homo as vro do , and as England now docs ? If wo had an American state system , such as Mr. Blalno proposed , there would have been no difficulty , and the whole conti nent would have Riven France notice tc stop. But in its absence something should be done , and the United Statec Is best able to do it. The latest news from Central America indicates that President Xildlvar , of San Salvador , has become , by the death ol Barrios , the moat prominent polltica figure in tbat region. All accounts of the recent disturbance agree in asserting thai Zaldivar had promised to acslat Barrios in carrying ont his plan , and that Bar rios relied upon his aid until it wac discovered , almost at the lasl moment , that the ruler of San Salvador had gone over to the onorny. Xaldlvar'o defection would of itself have boon suffi cient , probably , to defeat Barrios If the dictator had escaped the sharpshootor's ' ballet and lived to load his army. The president of San Salvador has causad a decree of general amnesty to ba honed , and will o.xao' , with the assistance or consonl of Honduras , C'csta ' Rica , and Nicaragua , a war indemnity of § 10,000,000. In hlo opinion it will also be necessary to weaken Guatemala by slicing off eomo of her ter ritory. If other republics assist him in the proposed dismemberment of Barrios country they may find thnt they have greatly Increased the power of San Salva dor and given to XitJivar the preponder ating strength and influence that made Barrios dangerous. Canada must breathe easier now tba Louis Kiel is a prisoner in the hands o her troops. Kiel's rebellion throatoncc only a few weeks ago to provo most dis astrous to the Dominion , and it became i question whether it would not bo nocea sary ta compromise with the rebels. Ii fact it was only yesterday that a dlspatcl was printed saying Queen Victoria hat requested Sir John Macdoiuld toconcndi the demands of the rebels to thi utmost limit of justice , in order to bring the insurrection quickly to on end. But whatever tbo justice of RlcTs cauio ma ] be , now that ho is a prisoner , it will b remembered to his disadvantage that h has brought upon Canada the peril cf i great Indian war , and that this is not hi first appearance in the character of rebel chieftain. Still , if the Oanadiai loaders are wise they will not invite future uprising by refusing to inquir into the grievances of the balf-brecds. The Australian troops in the Rouda are preparing to go homo , after Imviu traveled a great distanca for n very stnal amount of fighting. It is doubtfn whether they have managed to kill fift of the Soudanese in all , or ono victim t bo distributed among every ten of them However , they have given the colony o Now south Wales a fine advertisement and have been pioneers in amovompn which may eomo time become very irn porluut. In Cuba two hours bolero a paper ia die trllmted cm the street a copy must he eenl with the editor' * naice , to tlisgovernment an one to the ceneor. When the paper is returned turned with the ccneor'a indorsement th paper may go out to the public.
