Tlio nitatuke uiado b.v Senator Roa-
ran of Texas on Tuesday , in making a
somewhat violent speech on the floor of
ho nonalo defending the rebellionj will
lot improve the chances of the demo
cratic party. In the present temper of
the country there could have been no
illorancc more unfortunate for the
Mirty that is dominated in congress , and
n-tlio tidir.lnihtration by its boutheru
element than a defense of slavery ,
the confederacy and sece'Hioii by a sen
ator who was conspiculoufily identified
vith the rebellion , and Is to-day an no-
( nowlodgod and honored loader of the
southern wing of the democratic party.
\Ve can conceive of no provocation
which could excuse or justify a man at
.bin time in defending secession and
rebellion , and no man who will otter
such a defense can fairly bo regarded
is having been purged of the political
tiercsics which brought on the great
conllict for the life of the nation. The
poison is still in his system , and it would
Huom that if he has not been able tc
eliminate it after more than a quartet
of a century there is no probability ol
Ills ever doing M > . Mr. Roapan is n
man of superior ability. He has reached
that time of life when cool judgmonl
and wise discretion should prevail. Hi ;
long and varied experience in public
life should have taught him the folly ol
yielding to passion , however great the
irritation. But on one thing the Texas
bunator is supremely sensitive , and thai
is the confederacy and tlio policy 11
icpichontcd. lie believed in scccbsiot
as a glorious and patriotic cause , and he
M ) believes still. Ilehonoiod tlio coil'
fcdoracy above the union , nnd ho think :
its memory fatlll entitled to bo honorei
by all who fought touphold , it. On al
other themes Mr , Reagan may be calm
and moderate and judicious , bu
on this one he can bo neither
for the love of tlio lost cause and tin
admiration of its buried glories arc y < j
strong with him. Mr. Reagan rogainet
his citi/enship in the union , witii IK
roaliuint or restriction upon his oppor
tunitics , but he did not , as he should it
good faith have done , dismiss forcvoi
from his mind all rujurd for the groa
crime against the union to which hi
was a willing nnd.eerviqcablo party.
Must not this exhibition of Senate
Reagan's lingering and still strong at
foctlon for the memory of the-confcdor
acy inevitably suggest the qucstioi
whether ho does not represent lh <
great majority of tlioso who sup
ported the confederacy and are nov
foremost in the councils of the demo
cratio party the men who made tin
south solid and are keeping it BO b ;
methods -which deprive thousands of It
citizens of their political rights ? Is no
every southern senator and rcprcsenta
live in full sympathy with the view
avowed by the Texas senator , and an
not such views necessary .to politico
success in the south ? Mr. Rongai
should have been loss imprudent of hi
bpecch and borne with a wise pationci
the prodding and goading of thoa-epub
liciuib. The attention of the people i
extremely acute at this tinn
and they are giving full weigh
to everything that is presontei
to them. , It is not a favorable time fo
defending secession and rebellion , however
over great the aggravation offorei
those who were parties to it. As i
loader in the domiuant wing of tin
democratic party Senator Itengan ha
made a far from valueless contributioi
to the republican campaign.

There appeals .to bo quite as great i
difference of opinion in Canada as ti
the policy \to \ bo pursued .toward tin
United States , In connection -with tin
fisheries issue'as there is here regard
ing what should bo done in dealing will
Canada. Sir Jjohn Macdouald , the Ca
na'dian prime minister , seems to havi
heartily welcomed the .president's ' men
aoo of retaliation. The 'political as
cendanoy of the prime minister wa
bqginning to bo fcoriously.throatenod b ;
the agitation of commercial union
which was making steady progress
somewhat to the dismay of the loyalists
Tlio threat of retaliation travi
the movement ft chock and afforded in
opportunity to Macdouald and his fol
lowers to recover bomo lost ground wit ]
the pooplo. The prime minister as
tunned an attitude that had no featun
of compromise in it nnd proposed a pol
icy that would very surely have to b
resented by the United States. 1
strong bid was made to the loyalty a
Canadians and it has been very well re
warded. Macdouald's vaunted policy c
Canada for the Canadians has mad
many converts in the few days nine
Mr. Cleveland's message was made pull
lie. Pretty much all talk c
commercial union has ceased am
imperialibin runs high. The peopl
generally are reported to exhibit a degree
greo of enthusiastic patriotism neve
before equalled excepting -perhaps a
the time confederation was onautcd
All this is quite natural under the cii
cumstancos , and perhaps commendable
But the prime minister and the loyal
ists ore not having it all their own waj
There arc several representatives (
the liberals in the government , aiv
thefeo are not in cordial concurrone
with the attitude and policy of Sir Join
"Macdonald. They undoubtedly rogan
thet > e as being prompted largely o
wholly by personal ambition , just as i
is widely believed in this countr ,
that Mr. Cleveland's message wii
a purely'political move. Tlio Caimdia
prime .minister is most patriotically in
clined to retain his position , and ho be
Jloves the way to moat cortaluly accom
jiUsh tills is tostrengthen thosonlimcn
of jiuipeclaUmn , put Canada iu the att !
tudeof defianceand backed byEnglau
fearlessly accept Iho consequences. Bu
the liberal members of the govQrnraon
are said not to Inko kindly to thi
policy , and a dispatch from Ottawa say
that a rupture in the cabinet is uotiic
probable ! Meanwhile the British gov
eminent has interfered in a wa
likely .to curb Sir John Maodoi
aid's zeal. It has called for
full history of the relations botwoo
the United States and Canada since th
confederation of the provinces , inforn
ation as to the probable effect on th
dominion the propoged rouill tor
.measures are carried out , and onjoine
the utmost caution in every juoveuieii
at present. Lord Salisbury is roportcc
.0 have addressed Sir John MoDonali
in very plain language relative to tin
conduct ho is expected lo observe. Al
this feiiggcsts that the British govonv
men t pi opuses taking an active hand it
the future of this controversy , and thai
it docs not intend to become involved
In any more serious complications bj
reason of blunders on the part o
Canadian statesmen who have political
ambition to promote ,
There appears to bo no doubt that the
ifoneral sentiment of Canada is favora
L > lo to maintaining the past policy re
[ raitling the fisheries dispute , but thii
is not universal. There is a consider
able feeling that it would bo n grave
mistake and mibfortuno lo provoke re
tulintion , but those who hold ibis viov
are just now compelled to avow it in t
minor key. Tlio interference of tin
British government and .its injunctiot
of caution com'oy the assurance tha
there is not likely to soon arise atij
cause for retaliation.

The proclamation of Chief Scavoy Si
a remarkable document for more reas
ons than one. The chief directs Cap
tain Green to report to him the looali
tics of all low dens , with names of keepers
ors and owners of the property. When
is the line to bo drawn between
tweon low dens , high dens and high
low dons ? Haven't the localities am
names of den keepers boon known ti
the police all the time , and does not UK
police court record of fines furnish tin
desired information as to disordorl ;
houses , keepers and inmates ? If not
why not ? Another feature of tin
chief's proclamation is the order ti
Captain Green and the police gonorall ;
to report the names of all the men am
all the women who nrer not legally married
riod , but who pretend to bo and are llv
ing together as man and wife in hotels
boarding houses and private rooms
This is a job which will keep Cap
lain Green and his police very busy
They will have to masquerade in citizens
clothes as detectives and quarter them
selves in the various hotels nnd board
ing houses , and spend their nights ii
looking1 ovortho transoms to hoc whctho
the right man is lodged Ju the righ
place.They will have to rummageamoui
the closets und bureau drawers in ever
room occupied by married women an
women that claim to be married , to in
spect their marriage licenses and se
whether or not they are genuine aiv
the seal of tlio olllciating justice i
properly fixed. In case they find
mormon woman , they will 'Jiavo to bem
out to Utah to learn whether she ha
boon "scaled. "
Another vary striking feature of th
chief's now famous proclamation is th
instruction .to Captain Green and th
police to shudo.v all profession ! )
and business men who frcquon
disorderly places , and icpoi
their names to him in writing , a
boon as convenient. This order wii
keep Captain Green and the balance c
the horse marines vary busy and ma
compel the chief to make requisition o
the police commission 'for ' addition :
memorandum books , stationary an
clerical absibtanco.

The Hastings Qarctto- Journal puts ilt thii
way ; "Tho democratic organs arc s.till in
slstmg that pigs jvili lly in Nebraska this fall
At least , they claim' that McSliano will bi
elected governor , .which amounts to thi
same thing. "
„ h
Says the Nebraska Citv Jross : "Tha
John A MeShanoTvas absolutelv sincere ii
his wish to retire from political life. , is show !
by his accepting the gubernatorial nomina
tion. That settles It. "
The Grueloy Looiier says that McShane'i
Domination is an u ity honor , "but Mr iMo
Shnno might as wqll have what little honoi
there is in it , as anybody. "
"ThOTCpublicans in their state con\-eiittoi
at Lincoln , " says the Plalnviovv Gazette
' 'covered ' themselves with glory. Thoj
nominated a clean , strong ticket which over ;
true republican can support. "
Uiisjsihe way the Hardy Herald viewe <
the late sUite convention : "Lincoln Is get
ting onto the Omaha style of uucking con
vcntions with young men of sUmtoriau voice
and u card by which "to applaud. "
The Grand 3sland Independent says
' 'ZTliat John A. McShaneiis the best man eve
nominated b.v the democrats of 'this state
thnre js no nuestion , Jbut notwithstandint
that fact and the 'other 'fuel that he 1m
plenty of lubricator , he will not come withii

The Sutton advertiser droua into poetr ;
over the defeat of Honrv Grosshans , whe

follows :
"The "narlc.that.hoUl our , boom went down

Ho had no brother-in-law. "
"Tlw anti-nionppoly clement of the repub

"Tho people of Nebraska were hardly read ,
to spare William .Leeso from the stnt
board of transportation. His strong follow
ing for a third term demonstrates the appro
elation the people of Nuhrasica have for tin
effective work for Justice between them am
the railroads. "
Tito Schuyler Herald evidently has no usi
for Nebraska legislatures , for it says : "I
thu next legislature should pass a Jaw reg
ulatlug freight rate * and then adjourn , the ;
would have accomplished more than an ,
other llko gathering has douo in this state. I
they should do this and nothing more tin
people would rise up aud bless thu member ;
of that body. JThis question is of more 'iui '

his resignation has beeiiTireparcd and haudu

General Manager Hohlrogo of the U. <

not hoard of Mr. Manvol's ' action and did nc
believe the report so far as It concerned th
rianagoiuont of the Chicago , Burlington i
Quiney. Ho asserted emphatically that Gei
eral Manager Stone- had not resigned an
would not. There must bo a mistake , h
thought.
In looking for further information a re
porter learned of the presence in thu city c
the railroad man who was Tin : .Biu'h ai
tbority for the announcement , two wcclt
ago , of the coming resignation of Gen on
Manager Stone. The gentleman wan foun
at a late hour and informed of the report t
Mr. Marvel's appointment. Ho received th
news with a Bmilo of satisfaction , and brok
forth :
"Didn't I itoll you so ? I had not hear
Mr. Marvel mentioned in connection wit
the Chicago , Burliugton ife-Quincy's manage
meiit , but I have no reason to doubt th
report. "
"You are Inclined to believe It thoii.VhyJ
was asked.
"Well , in the first place , Mr. Stono'B resif
nation AVUS handed in to the managing dlroe
tors of the 'Q' the ilrst of thu month. 0
course general knowledge of thu
fact was suppressed , and the direct
ors have been since then seluctin
his successor. At the time I first saw yo
everything pointed to General Manage
HolUrcgc , of the B. & M. , as the man wh
would step into Mr. Stone's place. A majoi
ity of the managing directors were favorabl
to him , but Chairman Forbes objected , am
that accounts for the selection of auothe
man. "
"But If a majority of the directors wor
friendly to Mr. Holdrego why" but their
tcrviewcr was Interrupted.
"You must understand-that In matters o
this kind influence is often more than nun :
bers. Mr. Forbes is the heaviest iudividuu
stockholder of the 'Q.1 Ho is chairman hot
of tha full board of directors ( if I reineuibo
rightly ) and of the managing board. Ho ha
long been the master xpirit la the manage
meiit of the corporation , and you can reaelil ,
see how bis colleague * would naturally dofq
to his opinions and submit to his wishes. "
"But why sliould.ho object to Mr. .Hold
rcdgo ? "
"Oh , I don't ' pretend to know everything,1
responded the gentleman with a laugh. "On
of his reasons wus this : Huuld not bclicv
it policy to select anyone now connected wit
the 'Q.1 system. The foreso of that argumcu
doo3 not appour on the surface , and I can'
.tell what , if anything , was bouoatli it. "
"Well , wasn't there a better reason thai

As I mot with quite a painful accident whllo
riding a broncho , which will necessitate
my remaining hero for some time 1
thought I would wrlto iou another short
letter.
U'hc greatest interest hero Is taken In thu
formation of a company who projo o to solid
ify the oil into bricks so that it mjy bo transported -
ported In the ordinary cars lo any pMnt and
there used for fuel or for any other purpose
desired. The company Is ( Innncinlly able ,
and will have an cWclont superintendent
who has spent two years in the oil Holds
of southern Russia , learning all the details ,
and it wa ? b.v his loporl that
this point was selected as the scat of the
operations of this company. This movement
means cheap fuel at unco for the thousands
who arc now compelled to pay tribute to the
great coal monopolies , and the developments
of this pioneer organization will bo watched
with the keenest interest by all.
Mr.Woodsonof Birmingham , Ala. , has been
hero to select a site for a huge company of
iron men from Birmingham and Denver who
propose to develop the iron lutoiosts at Bos-
seiner. The company have a paid up capital
of $100,000 , and will eiect a largo blast fur
nace and other buildings suitable for
thu treatment of iron ore. and will
probably employ a force of from UK ) to 150
men constantly. Mr. Woocisou i ( turned to
Hltingham yesterday to make ) final
arrangements for moving the company's '
plant to this point.
Mr. Peter Ullrich , of Omaha , has junt let
the contract for the erection of a magnlllcent
brick block on the corner of Fourth and
Broadwnj. The building will bo 100 bv ll'J
feet , two stories high. The front will ho
brick with stone tiininimgs nml will bo a
credit to any city. Mr. Ullrich informs mo
that ho already has a dozen chances to rent
the building.
Ford and Murray , of Omaha , will open a
largo brick yard in a few duvs and will run
two shifts of men in order to till contracts al
ready made.
The Wyoming Improvement company , who
owned the town alto , aru now erecting a
largo and commodious building Jor the gen
eral ofllces ofthe company. Mr. iF. .
Suickley , of Geneva , Neb. , one of the com
pany , is superintending the work.
The Union Partita train robbers have not
been captured yet , but it is tlio general im
pression that they are still in the hills , and u
do/en parties from this vicinity nro still
out hunting them.
The regular harvest excursion of the I'lk-
horn , which occurs on September 11 , will ,
no doubt , bring a ruf.h of people to this
point. Tickets will bo sold at all points cast
of the Missouri river , at ono faro for the
round trip.
In closing this , my last letter from BCSSQ-
mor , I would urgu upon all Hint if they clo-
sire to speculate in .real estate , If they wish
to open up business in what promises to bo
the futnio city of the -Hills , or have any desire
sire to better their circumstances , that they
would certainly do well to Inveatigato the
extraordinary opportunities at Bessoiner ,
Wyo. The company who own the town situ
are well known citizens of Nebraska. They
propose to encourage ) manufacturers , , push
the development of thu country and to build
up a c-ity hero at the gateway to Wyoming
that shall ntnnd as Omaha does to Nobraskn
and Kansas City doos-to the southwest , and
the company , 1 understand , are financially
able and willing to exert ovcrj effort to ac
complish this most-desirable result.
Mr. V. C. Shickloy , the popular ex-banker ,

would bo pleased to answer all communica

Perfection Attained in the Presenta

The managers of the Slcgo nf Sebastopol
have brought that superb exhibition OH neat
to infection every ( detail as Is iwrhaps
possible tojjot , and-thu universal verdict is
that It is the most realistic , thrilling and
beautiful .production .over witnessed in this
section. .Tho .scenic . representation of the
city anil ite fortifications of Sebastopol is
grand andJmimaing , and gives a very faith
ful idea of the once almost Impregnable
stronghold , the scene of unsurpassed
valor on the part both of its defen'
dcrs and assailants during nearly
ayoar of almost dully bombardment and as
sault. The movements of bodies of soldieia
representing the Russian and allied armies ,
and a series of performances intended to
illustrate the way in which the allies cele
brated their victory , first demand the atten
tion and arouse the interest of the audience.
Gradually the scene is tilled with boldiors , so
grouped as to form a most brilliant entcm-
bio. The specialties finished , the signal for
the bombardment is given by bombs dis
charged from the outer fortifications , which
uro immediately replied to by the war vessels
of the allies. The great conllict that is to determine -
termino the futo of Subautopol
'has ' begun In earnest , and the least Impious- !
bio auditor cannot but be thrilled by the
'fierceness of the mimic battle. The booming
cannon , thu bursting bombs , the exploding
magazines sending out angry flames , the
sharp crack of musketry , the cheers of tlio
soldiers as they rush to the assault , the hand-
to-hand conflicts , the burning city , the
crumbling walls , the Russian retreat and the
Until shout of victory all Ilils presents a
maguiticont and realistic picture niont inter
