So , ns tun } be ilghtl } surmised , a bomb will buist in this Immediate vicinity befoio long that will shake Linn county from center to circumference. Those indictments , the chief tells me , weio made posbible by a change in tno complexion of the piescnt grand jury. Heietoforo it has been com posed in the main , of Cicninns and Uohcmi- ans , who steadfastly icf used to ictuin any indictments for alleged offenses of this chat- actor. A substantial citircn said to mo this morn ing : ' 'I hardly think prohioition has had much to do with the present dull times in Cedar Rapids , but 1 must confess that I am at n loss for ctuscs to attiiouto them to , unless it bo the failure of our crops for the tlueo seasons picceding the last , when the atnto enjoyed phenomenal crops. Yet I know this to bo a fact , that while piolnbition was carried in this town by neaily thiee hundieil majority , that if the question could bo again fiubuilttcil to day It would bo overwhelmingly defeated. A stiong cut rent has set in against the law within two jcars , and complaints against its dclcteuous effects on trade aio long , loud and bitter. Still there aio many who aio convinced that the law has accom plished inestimable good. ' 'NOjthoro isn't an } activity in real estate ; it is much lower than it has ever been since Cedar Rapids assumed the pretentious of a city. " At the police couit I made n copyof the ar- icsts for intoxication for the yeaie ' 63 , ' 65 , ' ' 87 and ' 83 ' 81 . 80 , , being missing. They ran icspcctlvely , 854 , 291 , 300 , 21 nnd 102. The paucity for 'SS , however - over , may bo accounted for by the fact that arrests are not made hero now for drunken ness unless the drunken man is quaricl- Bomc , boistciousmid distuiblng the peace , or unless some one lllcs inhumation against the offender , The report of the grand juiy will open up afresh the old prohibition sttifo , nnd thcro is 110 telling what thu icsults will bo. In conclusion it is but meet to say that Oedar Rapids Is the liveliest city I have } ct visited in the state , and with any sort of a show will make ono of the best towns In the west , -o - ; "GHNUKAI/1 AVAUD.

As soon as he arranged his toilet , bo IOOK acauiigo and went to the icsldencoof Representative Samuel ,1 Randall , the well known protective tariff dcmociat of Penn- svlvaiila.

AN.OTH1 It OMNI1ILS HIM , Desperate cflorts are to bo made by a Iprgo majoiitv of the democrats in the house 'to defeat the Ihml adoption of the omnibus toriitonal statehood bill. At a meeting of the house committee on territories to day another omnibus bill , providing for the ad mission to the union as states , the teiritories of AiiT'ona , Idaho and Wyoming was agieed to , and Chairman Springer , who is at the head of the house ( oiiferees on the first om nibus bill , wat directed to report and tugo its adoption at once. This second omnibus bill has no direct connection , how ever , with the hrst , which pio- vides for the admission of. Washington Montana and Now Mexico , and the division and admission of Dakota as tw o states. It is Intended , however , that this second omnibus bill shall block the way of the ilrst one. An aiiangement has been made wherooytho Ilrst omnibus bill will be finally agreed to if it is given a tair chance. The conferees on the p.ti t of the liouso will undoubtedly agree to divide Dakota , giant immediate admission to the southern half and give an enabling act to North Dakota nnd to ask the house for further instructions relative to the demand of the senate that Now Mexico bostiicken out. The democtatie confeiees on the patt of the house uio acting on caucus instruc tions , nnd cannot agico to strike out New Mexico at this time , but when they icpott to the house that body may so mstiuct , and action can be taken befoio the democrats can have time to hold another caucus and agico upon united action. The work to day may possibly intcrfeio with their piogrammo and possibly bung about a defeat of any action for statehood. The meeting of the house committee on teiritoiies to day was exciting. Tuulbcoof Kentucky and Hayes of Iowa made a dash ing tight in favor of the admission of Utah , while Sines of Coloindo , Strublo of Iowa iindDoisoy of Nebraska opposed it with gioat vigor , and finally voted the inoposltion down. The latter wcro not satisfied with the professions of the Moimons in Utah that they had abolished polygamy , atfd they sty it must bo piovcd that polgam } has been upiooted in that lerritoiy bofoio Utah can become a state.
