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

THK clvil-tervico system of Now Yor

There is no question , says the Now Yor
Times , that appointments for morl

ness of a city as for that of the state ,
not oven greater , tinco almost the entii
work of a municipal "government"

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

rcnmks Is that the invention Is to b
treated aa a " patent. " If the Invento

IT was generally supposed that the

nouncement , therefore , that his executors

$8,000 causes considerable surprise. The

that his supposed fortune
consisted mainly In wild cat
stocks , the face value of which repre
sented neaily a million dollars. His in

the result shows tlut ho was not a

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

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

monthc. Ho has a wonderful vitality

The Turks would llko to take posses-
icaalon of the Soudan aa the suzerains oi

neither the English nor the khcdlvo will

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

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

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.
