llr.ADKits of thu daily cablegrams , gen

the geogniphy of the Ottoman empire
lying west of the liosphorus. The Iron-
bio In European Turkey Is chiolly con-
lined to the three status Sorvla , Kouma-
nla and Bulgaria. In ISTilServia's area
was 10,000 square miles and its popula-
Uou about l.aw.OOO. Roumanla has an
area pf Ki.lKK ) square inile.s and a popu
lation of 1,51)0,00 ) ! ) , while Bulgaria , before
the treaty of Uunlow , hail an area of
HD.OOOfiiiuaro miles ami a population of
" ,500,000 , Kiieh of these Is now seeking
extension of territory , and all at the ov
ponfioof Turkey , whilu ( ireeco , on the
' south , is planning to have her boundary
extended northward. so as to comprise a
lurgo pint of what was formerly known
113 Macedonia and wbieh now passe ?

Thossaly. Should thu proposed intension
on thu part < ) f each of thosu quarrelsome
Htatc.s be carried out. the Turkish empire
in Kuropo will Uu-rudiiuuil to very small
limits.
Osr. of the most llaurlshing-as well as
onu of the prettiest of Nebraska towns ,
is Iteiilvicit , which booms to be peopled
by JUKI the class of citl/.ons required to
build up loual industries. During thu

The loiult-iicy to exnggeraln the im
porlanre of the slow rnpoyery of indus
try and ( ni'lu from tlitKprc. . > ioii of the
past thn-c ycar.s Is unfortunate. It is iin-
fortunal ( ! bccaus" ! it ovil.-s hop'H ' wh'-i'h
may not In fulfilled and Htlmulatf a
speculative spirit 'which in thu put has
been largely responsible for our present
business Htuguatioti. Tradu is rceovor-
ing , but recovering slowly , and the re
covery is , to a great di-grei' , duo to a re
striction of consumption which lias liiril-
ly brought aboutan upprovimito balaneo
botweou the resoureos of lint producer
and the wants of thu eousumiT. Mills
arc starting up and furnace * are lighting
their lircs , It is Irii" , but lliosu familiar
with labor stnllilics say that thoco
are more workingmen and me
chanics unemployed in the east this
fall than at any timu in thu history of the
country. On the first of the present
month thcro were only 'JJ-I turn-iivs In
blast , whilu Ihosa out of blast nunibi'ivil
lll. ! Ot course the iron trade la excep
tionally di-pivwil. but. all other lines of
industry show figures more or less dis
couraging to these jiroplnlrthoso con-
fidcnlly announce the impending arrival
of a business and industrial bourn.
The lKom ) so called is not hero , nor is
it In sight. Throughout the west thorn
has been u oncour.iging revival of a
moderate full ( lade , .somewhat better
than a year ago , a general and hopeful
improvement , but still far from a
"boom. " There has not been enough of
an InoroafO in the volume of business to
warrant any departure from the princi
ples of a .strict and olosu economy in
private expenditure or a careful watoh
over the leaks , which in the household
and the counting room so uipidly eat up
wages and prolit.s. Prices are low , wages
are low , and consequently farm products
are low. The purchasing power of the
dollar is higher than it was three years
ago , but there are fewer dollars in thu
general circulation \ \ ith which to makj
purchases. Wall street bulls may raise
the market , ami the tr.msaolions on
change double in amount , but , for all
that , there is as much need of restricted
consumption and watchful economy now
as there was a year ago. Values are
slowly .settling to a solid basis and the
water and waste are being wrung out of
onlorpri unduly stimulated nnd
mercilessly robbed by giant speculators
for their personal nrolits. There is a
steady if a slow advance in the gen
eral situation , but very sm ill encourage
ment for a repetition of tie | means and
methods which precipitated the last de
pression , and will , as hiirely as they are
employed again , set back the hands of
trade to the point from which they are
now laboriously recovering.
The IV'pw Kailroiul Projects.
The interest which Omaha feels in thu
various projects for now rail connec
tions with the interior of the slate is gen
eral and intense , ft is not confined to
anyone class , Our merchants , property
owners , capitalists , and men of most
moderate means alike recognize the para
mount importance of now outlets for thu
commerce of this city , and now inlets
for the tr.ulo of our prosperous and ra
pidly growing stato. Every town and
hamlet which will bo reached by the new
extensions Ls bcarcely loss anxious than
Omaha that the lines shpll bo built with
the least possible delay.
Omaha naturally fools most interest in
the proposed direct connection with
the Klkhorn valley and the northwest.
The discriminations which have nearly
driven her merchants from this prosperous -
ous field , of which she is the nearest
depot of supply , are well known and
keenly felt Public s-mlinu-nt demands
the immediate construction of a road
under loeal control and managed in the
interest of the poaplo of Nebras
ka and not of the merchants of Illinois.
The assurance that the line will bo built ,
which tbo UBK is almost templed to .say ,
is now certain , will bo grateful news , to
thu section which will lie served by its
construction and operation.
The extension of the IJurlington system
into the North Platte country will also
ineidenlaly greatly benefit Omaha.
It will shorten the line to Lin
coln through the Ashland cut-
ofT and by this much decrease the dis
tance to the South Plattu country. It
will , in addition , furnish contr.il Nebras
ka with a line competing with the Union
Paeilie .system at various important points
and at thu same tima lapping thu North
western through its principal territory.
With thu construction of the Grand
Island & Wyoming line , a now suction of
Nchraska will bu brought into rail con
nection with our city , through the Bur
lington system. This region at present
enjoys no railroad facilities and its agri
cultural dovolo niMit w.ll bo just in
proportion to the development of thu
iron fingers whluh will reach into its fcr >
tile valluys , and uplan Is. Tiuro is no tlis-
[ lOillion on the part of the people
of Omaha to disparage the far roach ng

idea of partnerships of industry in whlcl

The new south , aside from all partisai
considerations , has battled bravely to
place itsi'lf in the vanguard of Amriuan
progress. The story of the .succcssfn
.struggle to repair the material and sooia
damages of a great civil \\iir will never
fail to interest.
A i.Ainii ; delegation of live business
men and capitalists from Cedar Rapids
have been paying Omaha a visit and in
specting our public improvements \\itha
\icwof copying such features asj inaj
commend themselves to their attention.
From interviews wit li several of the party ,
it look * ai if Omaha might learn some
thing in turn from thu bustling little city
01 Cedar Uapids. It-s board of trade is
said to bo the liveliest : in the slate and for
Ihc past two years has been devoting il-
feelf to stimulating the local ion of manu
factures in the metropolis of Linn coun
ty. An organisation which in twenty
minutes can pledge .Ti.OOJ bonds
to secure a plow factory and in less than
a week lay plans lor collecting $100OOJ
for the transferor another great industry ,
must not only bo composed of enter
prising citizens but has the backing of
that ample capital which combined with
confidence in home interests is the bust
assurance of a city's present prosperity
and future growth. Thu Ilr.r. regrets
that the new board of trade building ,
which is to be , was not. fiullicicntly under
roof to be the scene of a reception to our
visiting friends from Linn county. As it
was , many of our prominent citi/ens ,
paid their respects lo the gentlemen in
the parlors of the Millard and gave and
received a good deal of useful informa
tion on matters of public interest. "
AXOTHUU railroad has bumi inoorpora-
ted in Nebraska the Grand Island &
Wyoming Central. His a 15. A : M. scheme.
The capital stock is ( ixed at ? 7iOOODO. (
Thu route begins at Grand Island , and
runs northwest through parts of Ilall ,
Buffalo , Sherman , Custer , Ultimo and
Logan counties , thence through the tin-
organized scrritory , and thence through
Cheyenne , Sheridan , Dawcs and Sioux
counties to the Wj'oming lino. It is evi
dent that if all the contemplated railroad
flchcmo.s are carried out , Nebraska will
have no lack of railways , and there will
bo moro railroad construction in this
state during the next two years than in
11113- other state of the union. Meantime
Omaha should bestir herself in regard to
her own direct railroad to the northwest.
SUCTION- , of the railway com mis-sion
law. providing for the taking of evidence
in the case of railway ucot louts by the
commissioners , is cvld"nll.y an ingenious
dovicu smuggled into the law by the railroad -
road tricksters for their own benefit and
protection. Under this provision they
can secure all the evidence they
require at the oxpunsu of thu people ,
and use it in ease of suits for damage ,
as it is fair to presume that the evidence ,
secured by the creatures of the
railway will bo of the most
favorable character. It is also a
a fair presumption that thu commission
ers' report , based on the cviduncu ob
tained by themsjlves , will lit one-sided
mdasa rnlo relieve the railroad from
ill responsibility ,

Schall "is confirmed by the council t'lo

far as tin- position taken by this city is
concerned we place thu opinion of thu
city attorney against licit of "the promi
nent lawyer" whosa judgment the water
works company claim to bo following in
their suit. U'o vc-ituro the assertion that
no court will hand down un opinion that
franchise to the u-o of a street gives the
sani" property rights as tliosu acquired
by adjacent lot ownerj. ! No council has
any authority to give anything moro
than an easement lo a olti/.un or corpora
tion in streets dedicated to the public
uso. To hold that the owner * of a meiv
right of way do'iutad ' by the public can
claim danugos whenuv or a street is Im
proved , is to open the sluice
for a deluge of claims from
street railways , telephone and tclcgranli
companlci and gas works , which would
swamp the city tivisitry if allowed for
ono moment. The nrgiimnt tuat the
clause in the eh.irter , allowing remuner
ation for "relocation of hydrant- " covers
the casu is the argument ol a pettifogger.
The charter never contumplaled lint
rais-ingor lowering a hydrant or reset
ting it a fmv feat backwards or forwards
on the sum i corner should bu considered
a relocation. The location of hydrants is
by street corners. Heloe.ittons wore
plainly intendc'd to in Mil only changes
of hydrants trom ono street InU > ectmn
to another after they ha I boon located
by ordinance.
It is not at all surprising that the
waterworks company should present the
claim if they thought there was any po > -

Contractors.
To the Kditor : The board of county
commissioiicr.s have purchased two road
machines at a cost of $1,000 each , osten
sibly for the benclit of the tax-payers.
The inaehlmi employed vvest of Klkhorn

of the commissioners anil contract > r. .
lli'foru and after thu .second inuuhiiv was
bought , Air. Corli's promised that . 'ho
roads from Valley to Ittvcrsido along
the railroad , from Valley to Military
road at Van Scyoe's corner , nnd the
military road from Wileo\ corner to
Keen & liowg's farm , Bhould be graded
up the lirst tiling , if the season would ad
mit of their being worked. For thu lirsl
time in ten years all these roads have
been dry , and , \et the maehinu has been
used on the dills or road-i which can be
graded in an.season . , ai.d , after a gloat
( leal of persuasion , on a part of the Van
Scyoc road.
IJefore this last work was finished thu
writer heard Mr Corliss promise two men
besides himself that the machine should
finish llie Van Scyoc and U'llenv. rotuN be
fore it went an > where else , and jet in a
lew dajs it was ordered olV the Van Sc\oe
road ami set up to work between Valley
and Waterloo on a grade thrown up last
year which can be worked any season.
"The milk in the cocoamit'1 is that Mr
Knight has leased thu muHiinc at 'J cents
per yard tor all the dirt it moves , and as
it can move more in a throe quarter mile
run than in a quarter mile run , and the
commissioners ( Messrs. Corliss iV O'lvcefo
Mr. Tinuiiii don't count on lids brand )
order the machine where it will do the
contractor the most good de-ipilo the

"Dutch Mary's coH'co" that they could
not attend to the county's business , al
though wo helped pay the bill.Vc have-
not objected to their lading out roads
without personal examination and on ( f
jMflc statements , but we propose in the
future lo devote tune , money and voles
for the defeat of men who tisethc county
for the benefit of themselves and con-
tractors.
The repair of the ( irsl two roads men
tioned would bring : i large trade to Val
ley and AValcrloo , Douglas county towns ,
which is now compelled to go to Fre

the impassable roads. In other words ,
our county board compels Douglas coun

Pittsburgh Telegraph : In almost any

Upon a sleep binIV , ' 0l ( feet above the red
water of Brush Crock , and commanding
a most extensive and charming view ,
stands a small two-story frame stable.
Part of this was once used by its owner
as a harnuns-roqm andollice , and is light
ed by a small window. In this , through
the courtesy of the proprietor , has resided
for several years an aged man who has
spent the greater p.irtot' his life in a vain

A WONDEftFUL TIMEPIECE ,
A Hfdl'ord County Youth's Flvo Yonra
Aohlcvoinuitt.
In Woodbury , lied ford Co. , Pa. , resides
a young man noted for his mechanical
skill , who is woiking at a wonderful
clock , which , when completed , will
eclipse anything ever produced In the
clock llnej not ovi n excepting the famous
StraHbui-ff clock. He has been working
on tin- , clock over live years , nnd expects
to complete it next spring * \Vhon finished
thUlnunvn.se timepiece will bo .twelve
feet high by live feet wide and three and
a half lei-t deep , built entirely of walnut
wood It is artistically designed and dis
plays in ils composition a grandeur of
proportion , vyith its graceful mold
ings and delicately-carved ornaments.
On the lower Iront of the
face is a circle of eleven
diaU , with a largo dial in the center giv
ing the time at Washington , 1) . C. , in
hours , minutes and seconds , the month
of the year , the. dale of thu month , thu
week , the dn.of . the week , the four sea
sons of ( lie year and the changes of the
moon. The eleven remaining dials give
the difference of time in Now YorkXHhi-
cage , San Francisco , London , Poking ,
Constantinople. , Melbourne , Vienna ,
Cairo and .St. Petersburg. Ono of tha
most curious features of the clock is tlio
following : Al a certain hour of the day
a figure representing \Villnun II , Vint-
derbilt , the great railroad king , arfoua
from his chair , holding a charter in his
light hand , and in turn all tlio great rail

M'ss Van /and t's Strniifjo Career.
What a .strange career has ' not that
been of Miss Van /andt , oil' the stage as
well as on it. The little uhantress , fctjd
and petted by the ladius of tin best Pa
risian society on account of her unim
peachable ropiilJilion as well as for her
countless gilts and graces , has ended by
estranging nearly all her tormer friends
by her caprices and follies. She has been
the spoiled child of art and of society ,
and she has paid thu penalty of her
spoiling by tiring out the patience of the
most endearing of the o who were most
deeply and sincerely int-rested in her.
As lazy as a kitten , refusing wholly to
study , and relying upon her marvelous
musical organization tor success upon thu
stage , ready to snub onu minute her
warmest friends of tbo minute before ,
guided enl > by her capricious impulse
in her conduct toward everybody and
anybody , she has thrown away in
a few years moro glorious oppor
tunities than are generally allordcd
to an artiste in the course of a whole life
time. Only a littlu common KUIIHO , a
little steering of her bark warily amid
the vvhirpools of the great Parisian ocean
and she might have lived and died the
idol of the Parisian public. Hut the lit
tle diva possesses tliroo great talents
her talents for singing , for acting , and
tli it of making enemies and 1 am not
sure but that tlio last named onn m the
most highly developed of Ih > three
There wa.s a good dual of enthusiasm and
interest excited representing her wlinu
she lirst appeared in Paris in 1 10 best
circles of the Amurican , colony. Ono
American gentleman of great wealth and
high slanding oll'ercd to give a receplon !
to tier honor. "Very muuli obliged to
you , " was the young lady's answer , "and
my loims are .fiMOlorattendjn a private

lisli lady of rank residing in Paris gave a
dinner paity tor her a very superb af
fair. Mrs. and Miss Van Z.indt left the
I ion * u as soon as thu guests rosu from Ihu
table , Ihu lalt r declaring Ihal "shu had
fixed oil' her hostess nicely , for of conrso
she would have beunevpucled to sing had
