TIIK sudden dissappeuronce of "Our
Val" from the list of candidates for
Borgcant-at-arms gives color to the
melancholy suspicion that the West
Point statesman has been given an
involuntary bath in the senatorial
bouillon.
THK federal authorities are deter
mined to bring the Florida assassins
nnd radians to punishment. The United
States marshal , backed by a revenue
cutter , is scouring the country in the vi
cinity of Cedar Keys for the loader of
the gang , who has hold the ollice of

surpass the bloodiest efforts of western
freebooters. Ho has exorcised the pow
ers of a potty tyrant , threatening and
uhooting peaceable citizens and coercing
federal olllcials.
Tin : liberality of the Western Union
in catering to the public is singularly
unselfish. With almost reckless liber
ality the company contributes a two-
column serial through the Associated
Press , without money and withoutprico ,
solely to prove that Dr. Norviu Green ,
president of the company , is op-
posed to the postal telegraph.
Of course ho is not moved by
fear of competition , because ho assures
the public that the Western Union is
not a monopoly. It is the political danger -
' gor that might follow government con
trol that thrills the soul of the good doe-
tor and causes him to tremble for the
Dormaneney of the republic. Such
.patriotism deserves to bo embalmed in
print , and the doctor is determined , so
long ns ho controls the wires , not to
waste ids mental sweetness on the desert
air of the committee on postofliecs and
postroads , but publish it-far and wide.
Tim views of Captain C. E. Dutton ,
chief engineer of the irrigating survey ,

tee , coma nearer solving the irrigation
question in a practical vuy than any yet
advanced , lie urges the importance of
passing a law which will dollno water
rights and prevent a monopoly of streams
which are essential to the reclamation
of the arid bolt. A largo number of corporations -
porations have already acquired control
of valuable water rights and brought
under cultivation a vast area of adja
cent land. Hut the privilege is liable -
blo to abuse. It tends to prevent the
reclamation of an amount of land in
proportion to the volume of water. State
and territorial regulations are inbutli-
ciont to guard the vast interests in
volved. A federal law is necessary to
dollno the area naturally tributary to a
Btream and to prevent needless waste of
the waters , to limit the area controlled
by each individual and to properly do
llno the ] win IB at which streams may bo
tap ( > cd with ditches. Such a law will
secure the greatest good for the greatest
mini ber ami prevent one state from di
verting nil the waters of interstate

THE IMMIGRATION QUESTION.
Tlio liouso committee on immigration
Is not wholly satisfied with the informa
tion it obtained in the eastern cities , am ]
is going to prosecute a further inquiry in
Chicago. It is understood that its pur
pose in visiting that city is to gather in
formation nnd advice as to the ad visability
of requiring an educational qualication
for immigrants. Tlio committee is wtid to
liavo a measure nearly ready to roporl
to the house , but it is.in . some doubt as
to what it should do in the matter of
providing that persons coming into this
country shall bo acceptably educated.
It may bo doubted whether Chicago is
the best place in which to seek the do-
sircd information. Thcro is no city
in the country where the prejudice
against foreigners is stronger among
the class of people from whom the com
inittco will obtain the most of its in
formation and advice. But independent
of what the committee may learn there ,
it may bo said that public sentiment
will bo favornblo to legislation requiring
that persons coming into the country
shall have some education. Nobody
would approve of admitting people -
plo who could not read and
write , nnd on the other hand
no reasonable man would ask that the
educational qualification of an immigrant
should bo more than is necessary to en
able him to rend and understand the con
stitution nnd laws of the country. , Un :
questionably it is not desirable to admit
the absolutely illiterate. This class , na
tive and foreign , is quite largo enough
in the country already. But. on the
other hand there is no necessity
for placing the standard of scholarship
so high that the most acceptable class of
foreigners will bo kept out and the polit
ical agitators abroad will have no diffi
culty in securing admission. The ques
tion of an educational qualification need
not bo a dilllcult one , and why the house
committee should deem it necessary
to go to Chicago for information
and advice is not easy to un
derstand. All that is necessary is to
provide that porsQiis coming into the
country shall bo able to road and write
intelligibly in their own language , and
the committee certainly caijnot need to
visit Chicago in order to learn this.
THE omniifAL PACKAGE JSSUB.
There was a very instructive discussion
; n the United States senate Tuesday on
the bill of Senator Wilson of'Iowa , to
allow states to prohibit the importation
of liquors. There is perhaps no subject
of more interest than this , if there is any
of greater importance , before the poole -
: ) lo of tills country , and the opinions of
, ho leading men of congress on the ques
tion will bo regarded with great con
cern by the whole people , equally by
those who believe in prohibition and
these who advocate some other method
of regulating the liquor traffic. As the
nutter stands there is a dill'oronco of
opinion as to whether the decision of the
supreme court in the "original package"
case goes to the extent of affecting all
egislatlon relating to the liquor tralllc ,
that is , whether license or tax laws of a
state are rendered practically nugatory in
relation to liquors imported into a state
nnd sold in the original packages. The
opinion of the minority of the supreme
court certainly is to the olYeot thnt the
%
Icoision goes to this extent , bi the con
sensus of public opinion does not agree
vith this view. On the contrary , it is
icld that the decision does not interfere
vith the right of the states to regulate
.ho . liquor tralllc , and that n tax or
icon&o law , making no discrimination
mtweeii liquors handled by citizens
) f a state and non-residonts , can bo on-
orced. Numerous decisions of the su-
n-cmo court are cited in support of this
) osttion , and its reasonableness seems
entirely clear. The argument is that
vhilo a state cannot exclude liquors
brought with'in its jurisdiction from *
mother sUite , without the permission of
congress , bocaiibo to do so would bo an
ntorfi'ronct ) with Interstate commerce , it
can prescribe and enforce the conditions
mdor which such liquor shall bo bold In
ho state , either by tax or license. Tlio
state lias no power in Itself to shut out
mportation of liquor , but it may ro-
julro that persons disposing of it shall
> : iy a tax or llconso for the privilege of
loing bo , provided that suoh regulation
operates equally upon all parsons en
gaged in the traffic.
The supreme court distinctly hold that
t is in the power of congress to por-
nit n stale to exclude liquor or any
other article of commerce which the leg-
slaturo may by aot declare to bo inlm-
cal to tha health or morality of the peo-
> lo of a state. Thus opium , tobacco ,
uul a number of other things could lu
nhihitcd from coming into a btato if
congress wore to allow it to ba done. The
question involved in the bill of
Mr. Wilson of Iowa is whether
t Is wise for congress to exorcise its
luthorlty to allow a state to shut out
my article of commerce which its legis
lature may proaumo to bo unhcalthful 01
undesirable for the use of its pijpplo. 1
n state IB allowed to do this in the cam
of liquors , OH a concession to its police
powers , whore is the line to bo drawn
at which congress should rcfuso to per
mtt a state to exclude articles of commerce
morco ? Certainly whisky is not the
only article the use of which may b (
delotcrloiB to health and moral ? .
As wo have heretofore said , { Ms Is n
very serious matter which congress
would better leave to settle itself. We
believe with Senator Edmunds that the
states have the power to regulate the
stlo ; of liquors within their jurlsdlc
tion , whether imported by clti
zcns or non-residents , and thai
so long ns such regulation , what
ever its form , is applied equally to all
persons it will not and cannot bo inter
forcd with. Congre'ss has the undiS'
puled power to regulate commerce
among the stales , but when an artick
enters n state and becomes a part of the
property of the commonwealth , it is the
right of the state to deal with il
as it pleases , simply observing
an equality between all persons ,
so that its citizens shall enjoy no advan
tages over the citl'/.ons of oilier states.
Congress has had few questions pre
sented for its determination more im
portant limn this , and its decision will
bo awaited with extraordinary interest.
Wo believe it would bo a very grave
mistake to enact into law the bill intro
duced by Senator Wilson.
Tilt } 1WSIXKSS
Omaha extends n cordial welcome to
the representative business men of the
state. It is in the power of the associa
tion to contribute materially to the pros
perity of the btato while guarding their
own interests. Tlio internal commerce
of the state has reached a point demand
ing united and vigilant action. Com
petition is bharp and sleepless. It per
vades all departments of trade. Union
is essential to protect homo interests
from unjust discrimination. Nebraska
business men are capable of holding their
own with any in the land , if given a fair
field , and that they propo&o to bccuro by
a long pull and n strong pull together.
THE city attorney's report on the con
ditions accompanying recent offers of
paries and boulevards , points out the im
portance of carefully bcrutinizing these
tenders. The decision of the district
court in the Ilanscom park case , which
virtually imposes on the public at largo
the cost of improving surrounding
streets , shows the necessity of vigilance
to prevent like injustice in the future.
Tlio city at largo is taxed for the care
and improvement of parks and boule
vards , enhancing the value of surround
ing property annually , and any attempt
to release .such property from special
improvement taxes should bo promptly
repudiated.
WIIENKVKU the public attempts to
curb the corporations , it is the custom of
Into to sot up the pica of "taking prop
erty without duo process of law. " But
when the railroads want something of
value they do not stop to consider the
effect on others. Tlio tittcinpt to close
up Seventeenth street "without duo pro
cess of law"'shows how readily the cor
porations will attack the rights of
property owners if there is a possibility
of gaining an advantage.
THE proposition to vacate Seventeenth
street at the railroad tracks should not
receive a moment's serious consideration
trom the council. Property owners have
some rights which the council cannot
set aside for the convenience of the rail
roads. While it is desirable to abolish
grade cros > ings whenever practicable ,
btrccts must not be clos-ed up and the in
terests of individuals injured at the re
quest of the corporations.
THE action of the
ami-monopoly con
vention does not moot the approval of
( ho political hermaphrodites of these
larts. Of courhO not. Tlio meeting

The Knrniott of Nebraska.
Mail * fillJbiiniiil. .
iron. Church Hot of Nebraska Is rcportci
as saying that the \Unks \ are sapping the Hf i
blood out of the U to. The Omaha Itopub-
llcan scorns to tnko , thU view of It , nnd do
clarcs with a good 'deal ' of spirit that "thor <
Is no business uiitfer any circumstances that
will pay from 3 ( .q 4 per cent n month upon
the Investment , and when farmers and other
business men borrow of the banks at sucl
exorbitant rates they are adopting n pollcj
that will soon bring 'them face to face with
bankruptcy. " There Is no room for dispute
upon that point , but .It would scoinosiflt
might bo questioned that any considerable
amount of business was done in Nebraska at
any such ruinous rate of Interest.
It is well to remember that In Nebraska
Just now there Is strong political pressure to
itilluenco the farmers to some sort of political
uprising In the Interest of gentlemen who are
not distinctively farmers. la considering the
case of the banks it is well s'o bear hi mind
that n peculiar campaign Is Is now In progress
in that state. '
It is fair to presume that the business ol
Nebraska Is done as n rule on ns cheap n
money market ns that of western Iowa , and
It Is not true of western Iowa that the rates
of interest among farmers , or in the tra ns
action of any business of considerable vol
ume , are nuj-thlng like those alleged as prevailing -
vailing in Nebraska.
It Is easy to say sovcro things of the banks ,
for the simple fact that the banks do not cast
many votes ; but it Is only Just to say that II
the banks uro " .sapping the llfo blobd of the
state , " as Mr. Ilowo alleges , the fault Is
primarily with the people who ha\-o permitted
themselves to bo placed in so great straits.
Mr. Howe , by the way , is a corporation law
yer , and the farmers of Nebraska have so far
exhibited a stronger disposition to get after
the corporations than they have to get after
the banks. It Is a condition of their own
making if they are In the grasp of the money
leaders. That they are In the power of the
transportation companies is a condition for
which they are not individually responsible.
Money-lenders , particularly la the smaller
towns and where they Ue-al In a small way ,
arc not , as a rule , above taking all they can
get , and the greed of these men ought to bo
curbed , so far as that may bo done under
statutory regulations. It is a subject to
which the next legislature may well give at
tention , but that It Is a question of such
prime importance as has been suggested may
safely bo doubted.
It is doubtless true that the farmers of Ne
braska , ns the farmers of Iowa , of the Dakotas -
tas , and indeed of all the states , have been
too ready to go into needless debt. Prudent
loans are not lnfrun.ucntly the best invest
ments they can make , but these should bo
governed by business principles and there
fore made under conditions that permit of a
profit to the borrower. Nothing hits so been
in the way of the average farmer as his free
dom in contracting debts.
It is true of most men that they make their
money under some sprt of compulsion. There
is only one business rule for the accumulation
of a surplus and that is the rule of keeping
expenditures safelywithin the limit of in
come. The avcragu jnan of whatever calling
is much surer to get , on in the world by keep
ing out of debt than by going into debt. Not
every man can keep edt of debt , or is it wise
for him to do so , but ho might keep out of
debt , under all ordinary circumstances , as to
his current expenses- pinch and get on , and
get on top. '
Where ono has adequate security to offer
there is no luck of opportunity to borrow
money. Precisely so i > the opportunity to buy
what ono can get along without , and what lie
ii not really able to aVord. | Thus unprofita
ble and ruinous investments uro offered to
him on every hand. His safety is in not bu y-
ing what ho can not pay for.
But all this involves a problem that each
individual or each family must meet inde
pendently , There are other things that
must bo met collectively , and Just now in
Nebraska the transportation question is one
of those things. It would bo singular enoutrh
if the farmers of Nebraska were not much
more in danger of ruin through taxation
beyond their personal control than through
any self-Imposed incumbrances.
The fanners of Nebraska ought to bo the
potent power In the government of that state
and therefore in the great work of making
its laws. That they are numerically strong
enough to do this is indicated by the solicitude
of the politicians In their behalf.

V The Grange Conference
City Notes ,
LIKCOLX , Nob. , May 31. [ Special to Tnn
nE. ] Today was the tlmosot by the state
board of transportation for the hearing of
complaints from the people concerning qxecs-
slvo railroad tariffs. Thcro wore n number of
farmers and other persons present whoso
business Is seriously affected by exorbitant
railroad freights , but tlu y wcro largely out
numbered by the railroad cappers , who word
out in full force.
John A. Tlmrston gazed majestically upon
the assembly through the gold-bowed spec
tacles that ho adopted about twelves years
ago because "thoy give one such a dignified
air , you kno\v. "
CJencral Manager Holdrego , with his
shortly cropped moustache and snapp
ing eyes , glared upon any otio that
dare say anything not In favor
of the railroads and was ready
with perverted facts , to provo that all the
railroads and these interested In them a ro a
poverty stricken lot.
Third Vice President Klmball sat next to
Thurston ready to consult with or advise that
attorney when a searching question was put
to either.
GenorM John B. Hawley of the Elkhorn
participate in the proceedings nnd Church
Ilowo listened Intently to the deliberations.
Hon. John M , Thurston addressed the
board in behalf of the Union Pacllc nnd
quoted the following figures as an approxi
mate statement of the gross earnings and op
erating expenses of the Otnnha & Uepubllcan
Valley railway company in the state of Ne
braska during the last four years :
( Iron oarn'Kf $4,233,01(1 ( $4,800,011 K21IUW fG,120i9
Olifmt'K oxp. 2.UI.8J3 2.5ii0.40.i | il.S'J.lM
Mr. Thurston supplemented thcso figure ;
with a few remarks about the scanty earn
ings of the Union Paclllo and its poverty'
stricken condition.
In reply to secretary Garbcr as to how
much per mlle these railroads cast , Mr.
Thurston referred the matter to Mr. Kimbal !
and that gentleman said that it would hardlj
be proper to hazard a guess. It would In-
elude nil original cost and subsequent repairs ,
It would Uiko several weeks to calculate this ,
Mr. G. W. Holdrego , general manager ol
thoB. & M. , presented a statement to the
board to the following effect :
"Tho Burlington line west of the Missouri
river , 1ms cost , not including any charge for
discount on bonds $00,175,871.14 , being at
a , aa.'J miles , a little more than § 30,000 per
mile. Allowing a fair valuation on real
cstato in cities and towns , and
for improvements that have been
made from time to time and charged to the
repairs account , it. is safe to say that our
property cannot bo duplicated for $ 'J , " > ,000 per
mile ut the present time. Upon $30,000 per
milo wo have earned , for twenty years , an
average of 7 7-10 per cent interest and since
1SS7 wo have earned lass than 0 per cent. "
"Of late , " continued Mr. Holdrcgc , "thcro
lias been an important reduction in rates , and
the future is uncertain under the present
freight rates. It will not do for you to reckon
on u limit of 7 or 8 per
cent of earnings. Wo should only be
too glad to be guaranteed that amount.
Our taxes even in the cities nro not fair in
proportion with other taxable property. Our
property in Omahais assessed at $40,000 ,
while inoi-o valuable property across the
street Is assessed at fSJjOOO. TJIK Bci : build-
ins ; , which is worth four times ns much us
ours , was last year assessed' at only § 13.000. "
A gentleman present asked sotto voce if
Mr. Holdregc knew that that assessment was
made while the building was in course of
erection. No attention was paid to this and
Mr Holdrcjio continued :
'The condemned postoflice block in Omaha
is valued at 100,000 nnd Hitchcock owns a
quarter of it. Yet the entire block was as
sessed at only f-10,000. , "
Mr. G. H. Dietrich , a railroad capper from
Hustings , tlibn jumped up at this Juncture ,
nnd glaring nt Attorney General Leeso
charged him with falsehood in his comparison
of Iowa aud Nebraska rates in an interview
with a Br.n reporter , and challenged him to
provo that it was true.
"Who uru youi" asked Lease.
This nettled the railroad capper and ho
hissed out an Insolent answer.
"In whoso employ are you ? " asked Mr.
1.0OSO undisturbed.
"In the employ of common sense , " said the
capper for the railroads.
"Have you a scale of the Iowa rates with
you I"
"Nnw ! "
"I am sorry you haven't , because I could
then provo to you that my Interview with the
Lincoln correspondent of TUB Bun Is cor
rect. "
"If you had any sense" said the capper
Impudently , when General Loose interrupted
with :
"None of your impudence , young fclloow ,
I am hero as a representative of the people
and not for the purpose of personal contro
versy. "
Holdrego looked nt Leeso us though ho
would annihilate lam If he could.
Leeso then plied the capper for the rail
roads with u number of searching questions
and before the brass-collared individual know
what ho was about ho had admitted that all
the Information ho had was obtained verb
ally irom railroad men ,
General John R Hawley of Elkhorn said It
was a mutter of aimuemont to him when
those complaints uro said to bo so common
that when a day is but for hearing complaints
not a person appears. "Thoro is not , " said
ho , u state so prosperous ns this. I bclievo It
the opinion of the people Unit thu rates of
raihoads are fair and Just. Thu charges of
leading newspapers to the contrary have
done more to dumagu this state than ull other
causes combined. "
Mr , Kimball arose and astonished the other
railroad men by admitting thu statements
mudu by General Locso regarding the dlffiH--
once between Nebraska and Iowa tariffs.
"But , " said ho , "If the Iowa distance tariff
Is adopted in this state it willlcavo the Union
Pacific over * - > , UOOOiHJ per year in the hole.
Our earnings lust year were $ lli : > .000 and a
reduction to the Iowa tariff would entail a
loss to us of fnooOoO. ) Wo would have to
wave ourselves by raising our interstate
turllT and by charging exorbitant rates for
thu .shipment of corn and othur produce. "
The session was then adjourned until -p. m ,

to probate la nald H , county , A large part of
the Mtato of the deceased consisted of land
which was Mtuixled In various counties of
Iowa and 130 acrw near the city of Omaha ,
Nebraska. Soon after the probating of the
will said legatees being anxious for distribu
tion of the estate , empowered certain persons
to make a personal examination of each plcco
of land , Including that near Omaha , and to
estimate the value thereof. This was done
and afterwards on the 27th of May 1871 , the
parties interested met nt a designated place In
said II , county , and agreed upon a division
of the property oxcont certain bank stock

TUB OltAXOB CONrCllENCU.
At 2 p. m , this afternoon nearly ono hun
dred men mot In Hod Ulbboa hall. Tlio meeU
Ing was ono called by O. E. Hall of the
Grange. Before the object of the meeting
was declared O. E. Hull of Pawnro county
was chosen chairman , L. G. Iloot * > f Indlanola
secretary , and A. M. Barton of Hod Willow
county assistant secretary. Mr. Barton Is a
member of the alliance. The following com
mittee on credentials was appointed : I. P.
GIIRO of Fremont , W. Tyson of Blair , J , Ifr
Canton of Dodge county , I. D. Chamberlain
of Stromsburg , and J. H. Cruddock of Lin
coln.
coln.Mr.
Mr. Henry Scott of Lancaster cotintv was
then announced and ho delivered n huff hour
address on the mrrits of a pamphlet of about
fifty pages on'The Science of Kchungcublo
Values. " of which he is the author. Ho ad
vocated the theory that there .should be no uln
solute ownership of land and that It should
bo held for actual use only.
Ex-Governor Butler was then called for
and said :
"Tliis Is the hardest crowd to talk to you
can ilnd anywhere. Men who live in luxury
and case have minds us blank ns a sheet of
paper. I could have talked to the men at the
convention last night an J have told them a
thousand things they novcr dreamed of.
Many of them have no idea how wealth is
produced. They talked about reducing rates ,
a thing for the discussion of which I have
been kicked out of the party half a do/en
times. Some of you may think I am not a
wealth producer. Why , bless your hearts , I
have carried onoupu slop during the past llvo
years to lloat the Great Eastern. I am not
an anarchist , but I Iwliovo that every laborc ;
produces $1,000 worth of property a vear , am
is entitled to that amount. Who is then
among you who has $1,000 sticking about hi ;
pereon to show for a year's hard work }
"I would , if I could , make it a penal offcasi
for a man to work over eight hours a day. .
For God's sake do something , even if you dc
something wrong. All our wealth goes be
youd the Alleghanie.s. You have tostoi
working sixteen hours a day mid go to think
ing and p ss laws so that wo can get rich In
stead of these kid-gloved fellows who are
robbing you. "
The committee on credentials then re
ported.
It was discovered that seventy-two subor
dinate organizations wcro represented.
The temporary organization was then made
permanent.
On motion the following committee of five
were reported as a committee on resolutions :
David Butler , G. A. Whttford , Ora Clark ,
M. H. Galty and S. H. Bryan.
Tbo following was unanimously adopted :
Wlicicus , Tliu vital Intuicsts or Hie liboicrs :
nnd producers of our state are buln 1i-opar-
dl/ed by the iiMiipiitlon of these xs ho prey
upon thu fruits of lalior ; thmpfoio bo It
Itosolvcd , That II Is very Important that the
dltroient organizations lu-ro assembled shall
work In harmony In this conference nnd
thioujjhout thuhtutuon the part , of these who
are selected tooiKnnlro these dlirerunt asso
ciations ; and be It further
Kcsolvod , That each and all of us pledfjo
oursulve's to use our best endeavors to uucoiu-
pllsli this end.
The advisability ot holding the eveningses-
sion with open doors was then discussed.
Ex-Governor Butler favored an open session ,
saying that the peoples needed the enlighten
ment ot their labors. Ho particularly did not
wish to have the reporters excluded.
Air. Cantlln was opposed to an open session
and was followed by half a dozen speakers of
the same mind.
Mr. Bell thought it n mistake to exclude the
reporters as advertising was just what the
grangers needed.
I. D. Chamberlain said ho had been a news
paper nan for several years and knew it to bo
a folly to exclude reporters as they would gut
ronorts of the meeting anyhow.
Several other speeches were made opiming
the admission of any but persons mentioned
in the call , and the resolution fur closed doors
passed almost unanimously.
The convention them adjourned until 8 p.m.
