On3of the thieves then proceeded to tho safe, another to-jk positioo a' the door and the third kept guard over the occupants: Whilo the robbers wire thus occupied two of the clerk3 who had been to the depot returned, and were at once takenchare of by the sentinel at the door-l'li-i safe contained in a drawer between -Mhi and H0 ia cash, and this the robin-rs carried off.

The administration or, perhaps, it were better to say the President signified its action to the election of Biddleber-ger as sergeant-at-arms of the senate, and although he had been nominated by unanimous voice of the republican Caucus, and supported through a hot light lasting for weeks, he was immedi ately dropped. This would scarcely admit of any pretation otner than that the adminiBtra Men wishes to see the south remain hour- bontzed. At the same instant of time jmm usuuenu oi iuo aenaie unanimously iTeBolved that it was their solemn duty te sustain the administration as against the stalwarts. No foreed or hurried solution of the puzzling situation must be attempted. The President must be judged at the end bis term, and not at the beginning, but is curiously strange that he should be more in harmony with democrats than with one half his own party.

Sokk of the provisions of the Kansas prohibitory law have been declared un constitutional. A druggist at Leaven- worthrwas charged with four violations of the law: First, in selling bay rum for toilet purposes; second, in selling Jtinc ture of gentian compound for medical purposes; third, in selling McLean's cor' dial lor medical purposes; and fourth, in selling essence of lemon for. culinary purposes. The county attorney claimed thai these articles would produce intox- and that the druggin accu8ed had no licen86 to 8ell the B(ime from the probate judge. The defendent moved to quash 'the claiming that he had neither violated the statute nor been guilty of a public offense.

Judge CbOzikb, in suBtaioing the motion to quash the suit, "delivered an elaborate the main points of which are as follows That, under the amendment the consti tution cannot prohibit, but only regulate tne sale or intoxicating uquorB ror me chanical, mediclDal and scientific pur poses, but that in attempting to define the meaning of intoxicating liquors. says that any liquor or mixture thereof that will produce intoxication shall be considered intoxicating liquors in the meaning of the act, and it shall be pro mt)! ted. and nence tne allegation mat the article sold were intoxicating liquors in the meaning of the law must be taken as true, tnereiore, we court neid tnat mas muehasthe law undertook to prohibit -the sale of articles, wnicn, under the amendment, it could only regulate, was unconstitutional, and that the act was further in contravention of the constito tion because it undertook to confer judi ciary powers upon the probate court. The gut of the decision is that such ar tides as cologne and tinctures are pro hibited by the law, but that the law itself is unconstitutional, A vigorous fight is being made against the law, and all its provisions will be thoroughly tested. Those who consider the law unjust seem to have adopted the old maxim that the best remedy for a bad law is its rigid enforcement.

Nebraska has at least escaped this evil. It is estimated that over a half million of foreigners will land upon our ehores this year. Of these, the majority are in dustrious people of moderate means wh have been drawn to this country in the hope of bettering their condition. They come from Germany, Ireland, Sweden, Switzerland, Italy, and almost every other part of the world. Great as this number is, their coming has little visible effect upon the Unitd States.

Upon tbeir arrival tbey are divided up into small groups and distributed through all parts of the country. Tho demand for laborers is great, and those who come seeking work are engaged as soon as they land. But a large prrportion of the emigrants have the great agricultural West iu their minds, and come with the intention of purchasing a farm of their own. The West is fortunate in securing tho better class of this fore ign emigration. The poorer and less desirable classes of which the Irish form a large proportion, settle in the cities where the manufacturing es tablishments offer better opportunities for dav labor.

It is the class of small capitalists who come to cetlle in tta West. For the most part they become sober. Industrious and worthy citizens They fall in readily with our customs and become firm supporters of our free institutions. To any other country than this, the in flux of so large a foreign element into the population would be a cause of alarm, but our territory is so Urge and the moulding power of our institutions is so great that no danger need be apprehended. Tbe great dissimilarity in these foreign elements is really an occasion of strength.

They neutralize each other and make it easy for the native A men- can element, with the aid of the public school and other republican institutions, to assimilate and unify the most diverse qualities. It is indeed the dream of the idealist that as the glass lens collectsall the colored rays of the spectrum and blends them into one pure white, so America should gather all the diverse races and types of men and mould them Into one perfect people. These different al asses will facilitate and make necessary an extensive division of labor, and this is one of the most Important conditions of progress. The intermarriage of dif ferent nationalities will tend to give vigor and health to the physical constitution ofj the people. The public schools, freedom of religious and political thought and re sponsibility in taking part in the general government will furnish the most favor able conditions for mental and moral development which any people has ever enioired.

The future prospects of the country are very bright, and Nebraska, as a typical western state, may hope to enjoy her full share of the prosperity and honor. STANLEY MATTHEWS The-fierce and continual assaults of the eastern press and politicians upon this talented man have been so virulent that it was difficult to account for them. Pa pera that are said to wear corporation collars vehemently denounced himas tbe tool of monopolies, and papers that be longed to the goldbug ring were equally unsparing. The secret is out now. Even after Judge Matthews was confirmed every senator who was thought to have supported him was tbe object of suspicion innendo and denunciation.

Among others thus pursued was Dak Yooriiess, of Indiana. Dan is no slouch when it Lfiomes to talking, and he defines himself L(hus leaving nothing more to be said -I ''1 am not at liberty to say how or any other senator voted on that subject, The injunction of secrecy has not been removed irom tne executive session in which Judge Matthews was confirmed, wish it were otherwise, and that everything had been made public, so that tbe neoole could have a correct understand ing the course pursued by every senator. 1 can only speaa or wnat happened out aide tbe senate cnemaer. 'tne east was almost, if not entirely, against Matthews Xistern preea, eastern banks, and such weii-kaows organs of the national bank association as the York Timet, were vehemently opposed to him. and assailed him with utmost iurv.

It is butj us-tice to the proprietor of the-paper to say that they donated him a year's paid up subscription to the weekly edition so that he might properly direct his zeal hereafter. Th dally papers of the country, are making strenuous exertion to improve the sanitary condltlonB of the cities In which they are publishedV.

In view of this widespread fear that the Cholera and other epidemics wfll visU this country the the greatest precautions axe urged. The summer promisee to be hot and damp and thus favorable to the spread of epidemics and the prevalence of disease. The mortality in. the large cities rwlU be. unusually huge ublei pedal pncautlona re takenl Cleahli Bess is ithe only safeguard.

Filth is' the most -deadly poison and occasions or aggravates all the epidemic and malarial diseases. Cholera can rage only where filth abounds. The dieadful ravages of She yellow fever in southern cities are due almost entirely to defective sanitary regulations. Fevers and malaria of all kinds are most deadly where the laws of cleanliness are least observed. Lincoln is very favorably situated in regard to epidemics.

There is little danger of any of the great epidemics Teaching us, but we cannot afford to neglect any of the precautions which prudence suggests. The city should be kept scrupulously clean. Offal or refuse matter of any kind should not be allowed to collect even in the most out of the way places; Cesspools should be oarefujly arranged and frequently inspected. Let very man see to the cleanliness of his own premises, and the whole city will be freed from anxiety and alarm. Tub Journal thanks the Omaha Herald tot its estimate pf the good this paper can do for a cause it advocates.

And las regards cruelty to animals, thefubject 'of discussion, we arc in thorough sympathy with the Herald. So also, 1s pubho sentiment in Lincoln. Our police forte would arrest a man as promptly, and the authorities would deal with him as severely, for inhumanity to valuable beasts of burden as they would for drunkenness and disorderly conduct Public sentiment does not tolerate abuse of such animals, and it is perhaps not so often as once a year that a case occurs which calls for- official Attention. As regards "bhdtairder had the' persecution of rabbits," we incline to the opinion that the 'Herald goes to an impracticable extreme. We believe the game birds and wafer-fowl a.

legitimate source of food supply, and regard their pursuit as the best method of affording exercise and recrea-; tion to the man of average or restricted means and constant employment. As to tho Innocent songsters, they are safe everywhere in Nebraska. They are iu-: creatjtig ia number and variety, and they are loved and cherished by everybody. The Herald, from lack of knowledge, be-: lleves Lincoln to be a very wicked city, inhabited by people who largely live on what they may plunderfrom the state, and it mikes the mistake of supposing that they are of a somewhat cruel and barbarous nature.1 We beg the Herald to borne down and see us and stay long enough to get acquainted. As has been foreshadowed for some days.the.

vote a Albany joritjrfor element It waanotf frjcUwy ve tie eSerhyxtoi over the republican party. It is to be regretted that the republicans of New York could not settle1 thW differences la the proper and regular way. We are not of those who believe the rupture is fatal to the future of the party in that stats. It may result la the temporary retirement rompubtlc usefulness of a great leader of oi tne party, out it can oo no more. The contest has reached a stage where we of Nebraska can do nothing hut await tho hoping for the best.

Unless the administration members make an alliance with tbe democrats, there is little hope of a speedy issue of the strug-, gle. But there is plenty of time between bow and 1084 for bitterness to subside and passions to cool. We dislike the tone of the anti Conk-' lasi press of ew Tork. It feels a ha-j treef for the ex-8enator and his friends i that bodes no good for the future. Ae-: cording to the New Tork THbune, Cokexdio is a boss, with a big he ia mean, he is cowardly, his -methods and motives are ignoble, he iavent Ilea, he throws dirt, he is a manipulator of cor rupt bargains, and columns pf abuse of him and his friends fill that paper.

There are no republicans to spare in New Tork, and ths unwelcome conclusion thrusts itself -forward that the 'Robrbtsok fac- tion would prefer another four years control flMtom, hoass to the perm nentsnceey of the party in the aUte and nation. It is suggested that the sujdeff change oi front by the administration in regard! fo aLiHomt was due to his personal friendship and political affilation with stalwart who 'are ii bad odor with the executive department.
