THE country nas hoard so often of the
purpose of the intorslulo commerce com
mission lo proceed against the railroads
for violation of the law that such reports
liavo naturally come to bo regarded with
some degree of incredulity. Several
times within loss
tlutn a year announce
ments have boon mailo that certain com
panies against which there was evidence
of unlawful conduct wore to'bo vigor
ously prosecuted , but so far the public
has not boon informed of
any practical ac
tion being taken by the commission. It
is now stated that the commibslon
is in possos&ion of evidence that will
warrant it In bringing proceedings in
the courts against a largo number of
railroad oflloials , and it is said this will
speedily be done. It appears that- the
commission has adopted the policy of
ferreting out offenders , instead ol wait
ing for complaints to bo made , and It
Fooms that the result is the discovery
of widespread violations of the law , in-
volvlng most of the railroad companies.
If the dibclosurcs are over maao they
may cause bomo surprise in the cases ol
Individuals , but it will astonish
nobody to learn that the law Is being
steadily and extensively violated. It is
certainly time that the commission did
bomothing to show that it Is seriously
endeavoring to protect the public Inter
csts. It has ample authority under the
law , and thu poimllioH proscribed for vie
lations of the act wore intended to bo en

The western commercial congress , so-
called , which has been in session In Kan-
Has City for several days , H wrestling
with many problems which It may take
several generations and any number of
congresses , both western and oastorh , to
eolvo. Every economic question which
'or centuries has been perplexing the
ablest minds of all the civilized , tuition- - ) ,
and every Ism that has been hatched by
mro-braincd visionaries as a cure all for
Hn thai afflict humanity , have boon ox-
mimded and discussed by this prolific
x > ily of free luncos. Henry George's
single tax reform , Bellamy nationalism ,
'reo ' trade uiid protection , the flatlst and
.ho goldlto , the ropudlnlloulst and the
jloated capitalist have nil aired their
views , but the world is no wiser than It
was a week ngo. So far HB can bo ascer
tained the delegate * lo thl remarkable
congress appear to have a mission each
'or ' himself and all for the rest and Unit
illusion is lo proclaim lo till Iho world
.hat thnv Htlll survive. Some of these
cminonl blalcsmeu liavo merged from
under a political landslide and others
uivo Iroon dead so many years lhat their
cjurrootlon In any congress is lanla-
nounl lo a miracle.
The most extraordinary contribution
o this economic and political aggrega-
, lon of uncommercial congressmen Is Iho
essay on government , its uses and
ibuscs , by Charles Francis Adams , late
president of the Union Pacific railroad
mil grandson -John Quincy Adams.
Like the late .JctTofbon Davis , Mr.
Adams Is a believer in the let-alone
> olicy. "All I want is to bo let alone , "
cried Jeff Davis at every stage of the
rebellion. Mr. Adams not only wants
.o ' bo severely lot alone himself , but
lie insists tnat Iho government
must let everything and everybody
nlono. In other words , lot the people
trust to luck and chance for keeping tlio
wheels of prosperity in full motion and
leave the law of the survival" the
fittest full ming in order to roach our
ultimate destiny. Mr. Adams is cvi-
dotttly deeply impressed by his recent
[ > or ! > onnl experience. Ho doubtless be
lieves thai ho would still bo Iho head of
the Union Pacific railroad if Jay Gould
luid pursued Iho lol-alono policy.
Whether tlio uncommercial
congress
will fall in with Mr. Adams'
views is problematic. Tlio chances
are ton to ono that this irrepressible
congress will try to engraft its diverg
ing views on the national legislature and
furnish that body with subjects for dis-
ciibsion that would keep it in hot water
from the lirst week of the session unlil
after the next presidential election.
When Iho present national adminis
tration came into power It wag pledged
to maintain Iho policy of civil service
reform and lo extend it wherever it
should bo found practicable to do so.
President Harrison was an advocate of
the reform when ho was in the senate ,
and he was committed to its support in
his letter of acceptance , but ho has not
bdlioved it to bo expedient to advance il
any faster than public opinion would
warrant. Ho recognized the fact that
there is a very largo proportion of
the people hoblilo to the reform , and
that much educational work is yet
to bo done before it shall bo universally
accepted. A very decided opposition
was manifested toward it in the last
house of representatives and no ono is
authorized to say that if it should bo
submilled lo a popular vote a majority
would bo found in favor of it. Thcsq
considerations have
undoubtedly receiVed -
coiVed duo attention from the president
and ho has therefore not readily ro-
spondcd to the demands oi Iho extreme
reformers for an immediate extension of
the reform to all branches of the public
service. This has subjected the pres
ident to some unfavorable criti
cism from those reformers , but it
has done him no harm with
Ihoso people who take a practical view
of the matter , and who are much moro
numerous than Iho radical reformers.
Civil borvico reform has made progress
under Iho present adminislration , and
there is every reason to believe that the
advance will bo permanent. .It will bo
still further extended. Reference has
already been made In Ihcso columns lo
Iho order applying the reform to several
classes of employes in the Indian ser
vice. This has long been urged , by none
moro strenuously than the present
commissioner , and its atlainmont
win uo generally grainying , lor
everybody agrees that it is desirable to
keep politics entirely out of the Indian
service. Tlio reform is to bo extended
in another direction , whore political
patronngo has hitherto found a rich
field. Secretary Tracy has issued an
order applying civil service regulations
to omnlovns in tlin nnvv vnril . Tn 11 i-r > -
conl address the secretary of the navy
said tlrnt for half a century the question
of employment of labor at the navy
yards has boon tho. ono weak &pot In
naval admlnlstrallon. Whatever the
party In control of the government , it
booms hitherto lo ha'vo boon powerless
lo exclude political influence in the em
ployment of navy yard labor. This
demoralizing ulcer , as Secretary Tracy
characterized it , is to bo removed , and
when tliis lias boon thoroughly done it
will not bo permitted to return , what
ever political parly shall hereafter bo in
control of the government. Tlio secre
tary believes lhat the system ho pro
poses will bo in the ititorost nol only of
Iho work , bul of Iho workingmen ; that
it can bo cairiod : out so that it
will remove not only all ma
chine politics from the navy yards ,
but all suspicion of machine politics ;
that tbo economy and olHcloncy of the
work will bo promoted , whllo the navy
yards will be places of employment of
independent and self-respecting work-
ingtnon , whooo only road to promotion
lies In good work , and in whom slack
ness , Indolence or bad habits will surely
load to dibohargo.
Thus it is lhat the administration is
making good its pledge and the promise
to Iho country of the republican
party , to maintain civil service re
form and enlarge Us scope as
fast as this could nruetle.'ihlv
uo done , in tills respectNis in others ,
thoTidmlnlstratlon is keeping faith with
the people and commending itself to the
confidence and rospool of the country.
It Is highly probable that before its
term Is ended Ihoro Is no part of the
public sorvlco whore civil sorvlco regu
lations can bo applied In which they will
not bo in oporatton ,

The national convention of the ropmV *
llcan league of the United Stales , which
will mcot in Cincinnati next week ,
promises to bo the largest and most im
portant slnco the Icacruo was organized.
There are numerous matters to bo con
sidered and acted upon having relation
to the future work of the league and the
extension of it1 } inlluenco and usefulness.
It has already proved to bo a most potent
force in politics , and Ihoro Is no reason
why it shall not bo made a greater power
In promoting republican principles and
policy , In maintaining party harmony ,
and in furthering thorough organiza
tion and discipline. Tlio plan of form
ing clubs throughout the country , and
of uniting thorn in ono grand league ,
was ono of the wisest over adopted by n
Tl. niv Mfnil n. iMiimilltniinl.
inspired by a common impulse nnd
actuated by u common sentiment of
earnest and patriotic devotion to the
republican cause. It brought Into closer
relations republicans in all the states ,
with the oiled everywhere of imparting
strength to their interest and zeal. It
has done much for the advancement of
republican doctrine and In attracting
young voters to Iho republican standard.
It still lias work to do in till tho.se direc
tions.
The national convention of the league
will come together when republican
prospects are brightening. The heavy
cloud thai cast gloom upon the outlook
after the elections of last November has
been largely swept away by the results of
thu April elections of this year. Those
liavo shown that there is still abundant
vitality nnd vigor in the republican
party , that the intelligent masses liavo
not lost confidence in the republican
principles and policy , and that yio polit
ical reaction last year was only spasmodic
medic , duo very largely to mlbconcop-
tion. The popular mind had boon filled
with apprehension resulting from the
misbtatoniontb nnd the misleading
prophecies of Iho opponents of the re
publican party , and tlmo was necessary
to remove il. The elections of last fall
took place within a month after congress
adjourned , and the period was too
shwrl to furnish refutation
a of the predictions -
dictions of disaster lhat would result
from the operation of republican policy ,
but when five mouthy moro had passed
without tlio verification of a dingle
prophecy of evil , the pcoplo saw that
fllrtv llnrl Iwmn mitllnfl MMI ! , ' / * , * , . . , , / , .
returned to the old political allegiance.
Every day it is becoming clearer lo in
telligent voters lhat republican policy
Is not the dangerous and ruinous tiling
it has boon declared to bo by
Iho opponents of the party. It is
soon lhat not only has it done
no injury to any interest , but it has boon
a positive benefit to a number of inloi-
cslH , and to ijono moro largely than the
agricultural. So far as logislalion can
alTcct the welfare of Iho farmer it is
demonstrable that the logiblulion of the
last congress has boon most directly
beneficial to him. There is reason to
believe that as Iho results of that policy
nro worked out it will continue to bo
shown lhat there was liltlo warrant for
the popular apprehension that was
given such marked manifestation last
November , nnd if this shall bo
the case Iho republican party will
regain all the ground llion lost and
very likely capture some of the territory
of the enemy.
The Republican National league will
therefore find abundant
encouragement
lo zeal in Iho work that it may lay out
for the future. The sltualion is steadily
improving , and the outlook for the re
publican party , unless all bigns are mis
leading , is altogether favorable.
I17/r GK.IDIXQ SHOULD UK DONE.
The "throe-fifths clause" of the char
ier w.is'onacled for Iho benefit of subur
ban residents who nro anxious for street
improvements. It has boon modified lo
allow payments of costs of such improve
ments in installments for the further
convenience of citizens in the suburbs.
Without this law it would bo practicable
to do very little grading outside the cen
tral portions of Omaha.
The grading fund is needed on strools
whoso improvement is demanded for the
interest of tlio public generally. Except
tn flin niun f\f n fmi * llmt.f tinrlifii i f\a lll.'n
West Farnam' street and I/MVO avenue ,
the suburban slreot work is strictly local
in its bcnefils and it is therefore fair that
its cost should bo restricted to these di-
rcclly bonotllcd. It is not just to insist
that tlio cost Of maintaining down town
streets iibod by the entire city and neces
sary to the comfort and convenience of
suburban as well as centrally located res
idents shall bo charged onliroly lo Iho
property immediately abutting' ' .
Furthermore in nearly ovoiy case ,
Iho properly abull'ng a thoroughfare
has boon specially taxed to make im-
] rovoinonls on adjacent slrools. Tlio
Douglas slreot residents , for instance ,
have paid u proportion of the exponbo
of grading Farnam , in addition to Iho
cost of bringing their own street to the
present grade.
The grading of Douglas is a city 011-
lorpribo. It Is not a scheme for the im-
provomonl of vacant lots , or to improve
Iho appearance of residence properly
actually occupied. On the contrary the
proposed grade damages every occupied
residence lot abutting the street. It Is
a business nucotislty In which Iho whole
city is interested. It is all bosh to com
pare the situation on Fifty-fourth ana
California , for instance , with that at
Eighteenth and Douglas , nnd insist that
the properly owner and city are
benefited in the same degree at
the ono place ns Iho olhor. To Iho
owner ot tno lormor property mo grauo
means a positive , immediate benefit to
himself alone. To Iho Douglas slreol
rosldonl it IB an immediate damage and
ho yields to the necessities of his neigh
bors. Ultlmaloly the improvement may
bo to his advantage but directly 11 is for
thu bonnfil of live whole city nnd it is
only fair that half the cost thereof shall
bo paid by general laxos.

SHOULD Omaha people doled a flavor

of the Murphy oil wells in Wyoming ,
consisting of 520,000 barrels of lubricating
oil has readied Omaha. A sudden
freshet swept away the reservoir and
carried the oil Into the headwaters of
the Missouri river. Our friend J. L.
Murphy nnd other Omaha cltl/.ons will
lake a melancholy inlorest in the Juno

COLORADO is jiibt now wrestling with

portionmeiit bill. Tlio Denver Sun
pointedly remarks : "The injustice of

would bo glaringly outrageous. "
THE investigation of the charges made

if nothing worse , grossly careless , llo

LINCOLN' , Nob. , April 10. [ Special to TIM :
UKK.1 Miss Sarah L. Culler , ono of the
members of the ilrm ofC. II. Cutter &Co. .
operating the dry goods store nt No. Dill O
street , known ns the "Little Store , " has been
Ivlni ? vnrv 111 nt. her linrnn. 1'J'T T ) stroot. In
conscquoncuof n dastardly assault committed
upon tier lost Sunday evening by na un
known man. Abouf 7''JO Sunday evening
Miss Cutler loft her homo lo nttcnd sorvlco
nt the Free Will Bnptlst church , corner
Fourteenth and F streets , nnd whllo passing
the nlloy oil Thirteenth street between D nnd
K streets a man suddenly darted out from
the shadow of H. Hcrpolsholmor's barn and
before the startled * lady could maku u inovo
or ralso nn alarm the scoundrel grasped her
by the throat with ono hand nnd began
dragging her into the nlloy.
A few minutes afterwards n lady and gen
tleman , neighbor * of Miss Cutter , came
down Thirteenth .street on their way to the
3111110 church , nnd as they passed the nlloy
the lady caught sight of what she nt lli-st
thought wns two men struggling In the nlloy
nnd called her husband's attention thereto.
They both stopped to look , and the next In-
stnnt discovered that ono of the parties was
n woman. The man , whoso nnmo the re
porter was unable to learn , Immediately
dashed no the alley , but unfortunately the
vlllmn hnd him , nnd throwing his intended
victim to the ground inado off through the
nlloy us fast us ho could go.
When the rescuers llrst caught sight of
them the fellow still had Miss Cutter
bv the throat. while she wiio on
iicr itneos on ino ground , ano wns con-
voved to her homo in n fainting
condition , and has been confined to her room
ovorsilicons the rosulUif the nssaiflt. Nat
urally she was very much frightened , and the
shock to her has nlinost.shattered her nervous
system. Besides that , her throat and nuck
nro black and blue from the effects of the severe -
voro choking administered.
What the motive of her assailant was can
only be surmised , uutitls thought that rob
'
bery 'was intended. The fellow was a big ,
burly jnnn , and would have killed her or
choked her Into Insensibility nt least had not
the lady nlid gentleman opportunely
peared. There Is no clue to the villain , ap ns
Miss Cutter was so suddenly attacked nnd so
badly frightened that she can glvo uo accu
rate description of him.

Alfred S. Pasloy , who pulls the throttle on
n Burlington cigno ! , was taken In custody
last availing on ( ho charge' of wlfo-boating.
Pasloy llv-fs at WO North Fourteenth street ,
nnd , according to his wife's story , hns been
in the habit of boating her whenever ho im
bibed too much. Pasley was released shortly
nftor urrcst on promising to behave himself
nnd ho started home. When his wife saw
him coming she anticipated more trouble nnd
ran set-naming into a neighbor's ' houso. Pas-
ley was again taken into custody , but denied
that ho had any intention of harming his
wife , but was merely going homo to try to
s uaro himself. Ho was kept in custody over
night , and this morning was discharged on
payment of costs. His wife was desirous of
having him lined , but ho plead with her , nnd
on promising to quit drink'lng and treat her
rieht , she agreed to go back to live with him.
They were not very loving as they departed.

William Reynolds and Ed Burke wcro
arraigned on the charge of stealing n hat-
from the millinery store nt Twelfth and O
streets. Both pleaded guilty nnd were given
? JO and costs , which thov didn't. , pav.
they claim nro their respective wives , went
into the store Tuesday. Ono of the fellows
pretended to by drunk , and whllo the women
were examining some goods the pseudo
drunken man stairgered into the window con
taining the hats , incidentally slipping ono
under his coat. J'ho other follow remon
strated with him on Ins being drunk nnd
told him to go out if ho couldn't behave him
self. He went out and took the hat with
him , nnd It was never missed until ycstordav.
A good description of the mon was given nnd
Marshal Mcllck and Officer McBrien ran
across the two fellows in Lindsay's saloon.
They are regarded as crooks belonging to a
gang operating in this city and several other
eases will probably bo placed to their debit.

appears that tno pickpocket is u member of
an organized band of thieves new quartered

logod to bo Kid Hawkins , the "solid man" of j j
the notorious Hat Hoover. Two other mem- !
bcrs of the g.nng Hoynolds nnd Hurt wcro I

JAM1IS WANTS SATISFACTION ,
David S. James is an applicant for Justice
nttho bar of tno county court. Ho says in
his petition liled yesterday afternoon that In
September Inst ho wns the owner of a stock
of groceries in this city , which ho calculated
was worth $7:2. : ' ) ; that Tdoodoio i < \ Barnes
induced him to trndo the stock for a lot in
Barnos' audition to Newman , out near ( bo
Wesleyan university. James says Barnes
agreed to see to it that there were no mort-
, uuu
liavo clear sailing. Before the trade wns
consummated , however , Barnes mortgaged
this lot , together with some others in ttio ad
dition , to the First National bank for $200.
Ho hns endeavored to have Barnes pay oil
the mortgage , but ho won't do so ; nnd now
ho wants satisfaction. Ho wants to trade
back , and If Barnes will pay the mortgage tie
will call it n go.
TIIK Moirravoi : w\s oooi ) .
In the county court toctny Judge Stewart
heard arguments In the case of H. P. Lau v.s
Kruso it Hchmitt. The latter was engaged
in the grocery business in this city , but failed
some time slnco. Mr. Lnu was n creditor for
n considerable amount , and the senior mem
ber of the Ilrm , Mr. ICrnuso , executed n
wnrtinfn tn litm fnr thn mnniint. nf tils rtliil.n
signing the Ilrm name thereto , Mr. LUU
tnok possession under the mortgage , nnd was
about to sell the stock when other creditors
rcplovinod the same. Tlio contention of the
defendants was that Kr.iuso had no right to
sign Iho Ilrm name to the Lau mortgage , and
that the mortgage was Invalid because Carl
Sehinitt , the other member of the Ilrm , had
not signed It , nor given his assent thereto.
The court , however , hold that the mortgage )
was perfectly valid.
