IP uni-ouTS bo true , the average Omaha hiiekmnii is little short of n highwayman. IIo should bo looked after. THIS feeling is general that reform is absolutely necessary for Omaha in the present unsatisfactory system of justices of the peace. IT is now olllcially denied that Mrs , Cleveland was snubbed by the British minister's daughter , and the countrj breathes easier. IT is sweet music for the pooole ol the northwestern part of the city to hear tlio sound of the shovel brigade in the cable trenches. TIIK boodllng councilmen of New York oity at Sing Sing will have to try another tack to get out of the penitentiary since the supreme court has decided that ex- Alderman Jaohno should stay there. THIS next thing in order in Omaha is an ordinance to compel the construction of subways for electric light and tele graph lines in the business portion of the city. The unsightly telegraph pole and not-work of wires must go. GOVEUNOU Cnuiicii , ot Dakota , is too good a democrat , it seems , to hold office a single moment under a repub lican administration. On vho day President Harrison takes his seat , the covornor of Dakota will tender his resig nation. JUBQK TistiUY , of California , who has Bpont his time in jail ever since the dis graceful Terry-Hill scone in court , has boon denied a writ of habeas corpus. The valiant judge will know how to be have himself the next time ho appears before the bench. Ol- " ALL America's foreign relations , Peru undoubtedly gives the state depart ment the most trouble. The recent in- Bult to the American consul at Mollensdo is only ono of a series of indignities which the hot headed Peruvians con tinually heap on citizens and ropro- eontatlves of the United States. THE convention ot the Knights of Labor now in session at Indianapolis promises to bo ono of unusual interest. The deliberations of the delegates will be carefully followed by tlio thousands of members through the country , nnd the actions taken by the convention will undoubtedly be fully endorsed by the local assemblies. MATTIIKWS , the republican candi date for delegate to congress from the ( territory of Dakota , has boon elected , ttut his majority fulls some thousands hort of the majority of GitTord in 188Q , which was i9SOO. ! What a commentary vpon the anomalous position of Dakota tts the fact that a delegate should bo elected by such a majority. Dim enterprising local contempo raries have doubled' and trebled their circulation within the past four months , but THE BKK Is still the only paper in Oinalia that keeps the public informed Us to the number it prints each day. /fThis / doubling of circulation by reador- less shoots reminds us of the fellow who find his salary doubled when ho was working for ton dollars a month. I COLOUAUO bids fair to vlo with Wyo- fnlng for the distinction of becoming a proat oil stato. In the valley of the Arkansas near Pueblo , a number of Hvolls have boon bored and the yield of twtrolouin is estimated at a thousand barrels a day. The day is not far dis tant when the Rooky mountain bolt will upply the world with oil. The constant , | lrain on the petroleum wells of Ohio g nd Pennsylvania can not last many years. The prospects , however , for Wyoming nnd Colorado are bright In- deed. The fields already dlscovoroddo- note that the su ply from thorn cannot bo exhausted in a century to come. The lMJ siblo oil deposits nro likewise found to bo greater than llrst supposed. Ne braska and Kansas will share in the full flsvolopmont of the oil regions.

Not tlio least of the advantage to b oxjiectctl froln the election of u vepubll can president and congress will uccrm to tlio vrost nnd nortli\vc9t in the extension sion of statehood to oxistinff torritorioi which is cortnin to bo done during thi republican nilmlnlstrntlon. Tlio carl ; admission of Daltota , probably as twi states , can bo regarded as certain. Tlu republican party la fully coinmittoi against the injustice ) which has kop this territory from statehood since I has had a population entitling1 it ti admission , and no member of the parti is nioro strongly in favor of rotnodyinf this injustice promptly thai General Harrison. The ncx congress will bo called upon to consider this matter among1 the first that wll demand its attention , unless it shotih happen Unit the democrats In the present ont congress recede from their deter initiation to admit Dakota as ono state. . which they probably will not do. Wash inpton tcrrltony , also , is ready for ad- inlshion , and will vry likely become n slate nt the same time with Dakota , a bill to nil in it Washington having boor Introduced In the senate at the last scs slon. Certainly before the term of tin now administration expires Montana will bo prepared for admission , and II is quito possible , also , that within tht next few years Wyoming may be knocking at the door ot UK door of the union with a demand to b < admitted. At all events now states , doubtlcs : three in number , are assured from the territories of Dakota and Washingtor during the republican administration , and their creation will inevitably give a great impetus to the growth and pros perity of those sections. 13oth popula tion and capital will be attracted ti thorn , railroad enterprise will bo eiv couraged , now centers of population will be established and there will be progress along nil the lines of develop ment. When the pcoplo of those territories tire given full control of their internal affairs the } will bo enabled to do much foi advancing the general welfare , whlcl in their present condition they cannot do , and with self government their en terprise will be very greatly stimulated In the fruits of such enlarged energy the entire west and northwest will share , so that the promise of the admission of Dakota and Washington and Montana is of the greatest interest to the people of all this section. Nebraska is pe culiarly concerned in the development of southern Dakota , and hardly to n less extent in the growth of Wyoming and Montana , and therefore the out look favorable to the rapid future pro gress of this tributary territory is peculiarly gratifying to the producers and merchants of Ne braska. It means an enlargod'market for both which must steadily increase in importance and valuo. With the material benefits to bo derived by the west and northwest from the change of administration will come a political gain to the party in power that will probably prolong its control of the government for many years. All the territories likely to be admitted during the next administra tion are now republican , and their ad mission may reasonably bo expected to make their people more strongly in sympathy with republican principles and policy. It is therefore probable that four years hence there , will be eighteen or twenty additional republi can electoral votes , giving a great ad vantage to that party which its oppo nents already foresee with undisguised apprehension. Thus the triumph of the republican party assures an in crease of both prosperity nnd political power to the north and northwest , ren dering those sections a still more po tential force in the alTairs of the na tion. THE VOTE IN SOME CITIES. In the west and the northwest there Is keen rivalry among the loading cities as to their respective populations , and some newspapers , in championing the cause of their locality , have shown the same rocidcssness as the average fisher man when boasting of hia catch. They have made statements that were sur prising , and they have stuck to them with a pertinacity that In. time ob tained for them belief in those quarters xvhero it would servo them most. Ob viously the desire to appear more than ordinarily prosperous springs from the hope of attracting immigration. Of the two classes of immi grants that are pouring into New York , the agricultural and the laboring , the former almost without exception , comes either to the west ot to the northwest. It is as beneficial as the other is obnoxious , for whilst the open gate to European labor simply re duces the wages of American laborers , tind takes away the broad of many an American family , the advent of the ag ricultural element among us builds up the territories and the states of the north and northwest , and gives to land in incredible increase in value , The more settlers , the higher the vul uo of iho broad acres , and the greater the growth of values in city lota ! A presidential election brings out ivlth reasonable certainty the reul pop- alatlon of those contestants. There is tome effort to juggles with the returns by presenting in ono table the vote of tlio entire county by precincts. It very ioldom happens that the county vote ind the city vote are practically the same , though this is the case in Now Vork , and very nearly so in Chicago , ivhiuh really covers Cook county. It has lieon found by experience that each k-oteir iu a full ballot roprobonts from live to six parsons , women and children uid non-voters. Where the number of : ho latter is considerable as in San Francisco and in Now York , even six tome mo will hardly cover tlio case. In julot inland towns in Now England it nay bo doubted if live to ono is not in ixcoss of the truth. For our northwost- irn and western communities an avor- igu of live and one-half to one scorns as loarly accurate as possible.Ve hnvo uken the vote of eomo of the most con- ipicuous cltloa in this uootion of the lulled States , and haveapplied to hem tills test , and have obtained the allowing result , ' Estimated vnt 'ePopulation.

It Is ovldon that those who have compiled the hoini census of Kansas City in anticipation o Uncle Sam's periodical numbering mus have made some fatal errors , for the ; have been in the habit of speaking o two hundred thousand souls as some what under the truth.

Tin ; For the first time , wo believe , in r long course of litigation , the Boll Tele phone company has encountered an adverse verso decision , which carries with it tlu probability of more serious future con sequences to that monopoly. In the supreme promo court of the United States a de cision was rendered on Monday favor able to the government in the case o the United States against the Americai Bell Telephone company , to the exteul of sustaining the action brought by tin government to impeach two patents is sued to Bell and for deciding thorn ab Bolutoly null. The patents in question won issued in March , 187i ( , and ii January , 1877 , the first coverinf the invention of the telephone am the second for improvements in the in struments by which the vocal sound are conveyed. The government brough a suit in equity in the United Statei court of Massachusetts , alleging tha these patents were secured by fraud The bill of the government charged that Boll know when ho filed an appli cation for the first patent that ho was not the first and original inventor , ant that his untrue statements were a deception coption and fraud upon the government but for which the patents would not have been issued. The bill coutainet various citations showing wrongful in tent on the part of the patentee. The telephone company filed t demurrer , which was sustainei by the circuit court , sottinf forth among other things that there was no power or authority in any per son or party , or in any court , to bring such a suit nor to entertain the same and in effect claiming that there was no way by which relief could be obtained from the company. The supreme court decided adversely on all the causes of the demurrer , and its opinion was especially full and clear regarding the proposition that the government had not the authority to bring the suit and was helpless to counteract the evil resulting from its having been imposed upon. "Tho essence of the right of the United States to interfere in this case , " said the court , "is its obligation to protect the public from the monopoly of the patent which is procured by fraud , " and in the opinion of the court the duty of the government , acting as the agent of the people in this case , to get a remedy lot the fraud was so clear as not to need ar gument. The decree of the circuit court dismissing the bill of the govern ment was reversed und the case re manded with directions to overrule the demurrer , the defendants to have leave to plead or answer , or both , within a time to bo fixed by the circuit court. Thia chock to the hitherto vic torious career of the Boll tele phone monopoly will not causa any regret to the general pub lic. It gives the assurance that the Boll patents will now receive a more thor ough judicial investigation than they have yet had , and as the case of the government has boon most carefully and comprehensively made up a result is possible that will put an end to this exacting - acting monopoly and enable meritorious inventors to obtain justice. The uni form success of the Boll Telephone company in the courts had led the pub lic to think that there was little hope of relief , and indeed there was none so long as the monopoly had to contend with individuals and could fight its bat tles in Massachusetts. But with the government ns an opponent the inflated nnd grasping corporation has encoun tered a check that may presage defeat , nnd which the government will hail aa nt least giving promise of relief. FLOUXDERINO Iff IWUPrATEn. \ \ . The board of trade has endorsed tlio report of its committee in favor of u liberal appropriation for a deep-water liarborin Texas. These who attended Lhc Denver convention and were inspired by the enthusiasm of the roxans , who were willing to cheer for the old ling ns long as they saw an np- in-oprlallon in sight , are scarcely to bu blamed for being touched by the Texan fever. Tlio members of the board who voted to endorse their report are laboring a ti dor the delusion that Omaha and Nebraska are to be materially bonoflttod jy this project , They liuvo given , ho matter no serious thought from a juslness standpoint , and simply lake it for granted that the products of this fcectlon will find their natural outlet by , ho shortest route to the seaboard , and hence to Liverpool. The laws of com- norco , like the law of supply and de- nund , nro reciprocal. The deep water larbor at Galveston or any ether Texan iort will never compote with Now York , 3oston und Baltimore , because the ihannols of trndo always rune o the great marts of com- norce , where those who have iroducts to sell will find merchandise to my. The difference of three or four tundrod miles plays no part in the ta- crohungo of commodities. The enormous traliio between Chicago , tid New York , going "both ways , on- bles tha railroads to curry freight cheaper from the lakes to the Allan In n distance of ever ono thousand mile * than it can bo carried for half that dh tanco between Kansas City nnd Calves ton. Suppose all ! oift- grain nml moa products were exported to Llvorpoc by way ot Galveston , what return carg could the ship-owyori and railroads s > e euro from Liverpool t > Omaha ? "Woul there bo ono cnr pai ot mcrchandis coming from Galvosi on to Omaha feds every hundred ds of grain am cattle going southward ? If ninety-nine carloads out of each on hundred that were shipped from Ne braska to Galvcston would como bac omwty , what chance Is there for gcttin better rates for our products by shii ping them to the deep-water harbor i Te-xasY The promise that the deep-water barber bor would establish a grcnt city i Texas that will bo able to cope wit Now York and Boston is fallacious. Th American metropolis commands billion of capital , nnd the merchants of th west are compelled to trade where the can find the largest supply ot morchtui ellso and the most liberal credits. 1 change in the established chan nels of trade is , therefore , utterly oti of question. Galveston or the propose port in Texas would doubtless prollt b the deep harbor appropriations , and s would the contractors and lot-specula tors , but the Omaha board ot trade wll bo several hundred years older bofor its members will see any largo quanti ties of our products oxnortpu by way c the deep water harbor down in Texas. Ir THE county republican commlttc had followed Tin : Bun's advice an had taken legitimate measures t prevent frauds at the polls on elcctio day , there would bo no necessity of con testing scats in the legislature. Owin to the want of registration lists , the in adequate preparations made to handl the largo vote cast , and the incxperi once of the judges and clerks of olcc tion , it will bo next to impossible to sc sure sufficient proof of fraud. If it regularities exist they nIToct whole prc cincts nnd the whole count. Unles definite knowledge of fraud affecting in dividual candidates exists , the republi can candidates cannot naturally cxpec to unbent the democrats who hold cei ' tificatcs of election.

The most mortifying aspect of the cam paign has been the republican effort to carry the election by arousing lll-leollng toward England.
