The desire of the colored Republi-

The desire of the colored Republi-
cans of Maryland for recognition in
the distribution of patronage is Il
laudable one, provided it is kept
within proper bounds. and we hoped
that the convention which assembled
in Baltimore last week would unite
upon certain ones among them for
positions which they were competent
to fill, and that they would be har-
monious in their efforts to secur 3
their appointment. Such scenes,
however, as were enacted in that
convention, can only have the effect
Of retarding the advancement of
capable and worthy colOred men.
We hoped that our colored friends
would, by their harmonious actien,
set an example worthy to be followed
by the white portion of the party.
Our hope, alas! was a vain one.
Federal patronage has been curse
to our party in Maryland, and will
continue so to be until disinterested
men of high character and integrity,
who do not want, and would not
accept Office. take the matter Of re-
cemmen dations in hand.

President Garfeld's determination
to use all the constitutional power of
the government for the suppression
ofpolygamy among the Mormons will
receive the cordial endorsement of
thoughtful Americans, without ref
erence to party lines. Now that
slavery is extinct, Mormonism is the
one blot on the fair escutcheon of the
republic, and no false Sentimentalism
should be permitted to stand in the
way of its prompt and thorough re-
moval. And yet, we fancy even
President Garfield would find it diff
cult to name offhand an effectual way
of exterminating the evil. 1t seems
clear to us that Mormonism can never
be suppressed until junes that are
free from MorRon influences can be
obtained to- try poIygamists and
that will never happen until Utah is
blotted out of the map and her ter
ritory portioned off among her geu-
tile neighbors. In Utah jury trial is
a farce so far as the Mormons are con
cerned ; but if Salt Lake City were
in Nevada or Colorado it would be
possible for the United States district
attorney to remove cases to Virginia
City or Denver, where a fair hearing
of polygamist causes could be had,
and a conviction secured if the evil
dence warranted it. We trust that
President Garfield will give seine.
thing more than passing considera,
tion to this subject. Balto. Ameri-

A special to the Inter- Ocedu from
Omaha, Neb.. says: The Platte Val
ley, about IS miles west of this place
is the scene of the most disastrous
food experienced in the history Of
the Union Pacific Railroad. The
Platte is broad and shallow stream,
which easily overfows its banks. All
its tributaries are now pouring vast
volumes "f water and ice into it, aud
it has become rushing fieod. over
flowing the level prairies for miles
on either side. The freshet which
has done most damage occurred Sat-
urday. when an immense ice gorge
in the Loup river, which is tribu.
tary of the Platte. broke and let
loose the accumulation of water and
ice, which tore out the Omaha, Mic.
brara and Black Hills Railroad
bridge. The water flooded the sur
rounding country, and struck the
main line of the Union Pacific, wash
ing out the track and the telegraph
poles between the Union Pacific
bridge over the Loup at Columbus, a
distance of almost mile and half.
The damage done will probably reach
several hundred thousand dollars.
and fears are entertained of loss OF
life. When the news of the ford was
received at United States headouar
tiers at Chicago, warning was tele
graphed to the towns below on the
Platte. People took refuge on the
roof of the houses. Barns and fences
were carried away and all the stock
drowned. The $50, 900 wagon bridge
at Columbus was washed away, The
flood reached Schuyler a 5 O'Clock Sat.
urday night, and was raging tor.

graph poles at all these points are
down, shutting off communicated.

In the death of Mr.. John T. Cow
late managing editor of the Baltimore
San, the newspaper world sustains a
great loss. Mr.. Crow was just man
and carried into his editorial work
the conviction that a journalist should
examine carefully and weigh well
all that he writes or approves. He
believed in free and independent
press, and aimed at truth and accu-
racy Of statement. No man know
the power of the press better than he
did, yet in long editorial career he
meyer attempted to abuse that power.

The Desire for Public Office,

The desire for public Office is one
of the mysteries of life. There are
comparatively few Of our govern
ment officials who get enough salary
to pay their expenses. 1t is not un-
usual for a $1,000 office to require a
bond of S2,000,000. OF our foreign
ministers not one in five receives as
much salary as he is compelled to
spend to keep up the dignity of his
position at his foreign post. Cofsass
at the leading posts have salaries
varying from $4,000 to 5000, and are
compelled to give a rigid account of
all moneys received above these
amounts. Their living must be Oh
tanned cheaply to make both ends
meet, and there are constant demands
upon purses for aid to unfortunate
aud impecunious counirymen. AS
for clerkships at Washington, any
young man Of spirit had better maui
rails, pl0w, or do any kind of honor

position. Washington clerkships

The enterprise of the proprietors
Sun, in having had an analysis made
of the different water supplies of Bal
timore, is certainly commendable,
and has had the effect of bringing the
city authorities to a sense of their
duty in the premises. The report of
Prof. Tonry, the chemist engaged by
the Sun, is quite lengthy, and shows
that much time and care has been
given to the investigation and anal
ysis. The report shows that the
water received from some of the
lakes is unfit for use on account of
the organic matter it contains. The
remedy recommended by the Pro
lessor is the removal of the organic
matter, or the agitation of the water
by the injection of air. The report
has been carefully made and will no
doubt prove interesting and valuable
to the citizens and city authorities.

On account of the bad quality of
the water furnished the city of Den
yer, an enterprizing citizen named
M. B. Knowles, began to peddle
water last fall from a spring short
distance from town. The water was
clear and sparkling, and his business
increased, until now he employs four
or five carts. He charges two and
a-half cents gallon. The Rocky
Mountain Ne,Ds Company recently
caused analyses to be made of this
water and the water furnished the
city from the reservoir, which dis.
closed the fact that the peddled water
was actually inferior to that from the
water works, showing a much greater
amount of organic matter in solution.
The result will doubtless be the
breaking up of the water pedler's
profitable business.
