lie adopted the profession of law, and
very soon after his admission to the
bar wa elected and reelected district
attorney. In.1S5s he was first elected
to congress from New York by a ma
jority of 1900 in a district which at that
time had a democratic majority of over
1900. In 1860 he was re elected TO
congress, and entered the army in 1861
and remained TO the close, serving in
the army Of the Potomac and the de-
partment OF the south. In 1866 he was
again elected to congress from New
York and reelected in 1868. Over
twenty years ago Gen. Van Wyck, with
some colonists from Orange county,
New York, came to Nebraska. At
Davenport, Ia, an outfit was purchased
and n tedious overland journey made
through Iowa. The colony located just
across the Missouri river, near the now
flourishing town of Nebraska City.
Here, on "a beautiful roll OF land, Gen.
Van Wyck selected a building site, and
marked the precise spot where sixteen
years later he built his home. 1t was
after the location Of his friends and
neighbors from New York on Nebraska
soil that Gen. Man Wyck was elected a
fourth time from q New York district
TO congress. During this latter service
in congress he was the staunch friend
of Nebraska, and in one especial case,
by vote, speech and persona solicitation
rendered Omaha the service of aiding
to secure IN appropriation for the hand
some Government building which it
now possesses. During this term of
Gen. Van Wyck's service in congress
he was often called the ''other member
from Nebraska" Shortly after the
close OF the last term In Congress Gen.
Van Wyck removed to Nebraska, erect
ed a house on the spot selected sixteen
years before, and enlarged a farm which
he had commenced SO long ago to devel-
op with an old fashioned breaking plow
propelled by six Jokes of oxen. This
farm of over eight hundred acres, is
now one of the most beautiful in the
state. Gen. Van Wyck was q member
of the constitutional convention of
1875, and has since been elected three
times to the state senate, and has there
earned the distinction of inaugurating
numerous and the most valuable re-
forms in the public service of the
state.

FaEE snrrs ron AMnnrcA

Senator Blaine, ON Thursday, in the
senate debate on free ships, said: Dur
ing twenty years this congress has
passed % acts in aid of internal trans
mission by rail; has given two hundred
million acres Of public land, worth to-
day a thousand million dollars in money,
TO which 1t had added seventy millions
in cash to the same, and yet 1t had not
extended the aid of n single dollar TO
that vast external transportation, whose
importance had not been exaggerated
by Senator Beck, from Kentucky. The
United States could not win in this
great international struggle without
adopting exactly the same mean that
had achieved victory for others. What
was that? 1t was not to help John
Roach or anybody else, but to make a
great and comprehensive policy that
shall give every man, and every compa-
ny specified so much per mile for such
a term of years. Lee the American
marine feel that the government of the
United States is behind them; let the
United States OILY take. from her treas.
ury per annum $4,000, 900, the same
sum that Great Britain is paying, only
as a postscript to her $500, 600, 900 of
investment. He was not n prophet, or son
Of one, but If this vas done, he would
venture to predict that the long de-
ferred and much desired event of the
revival Of the American steam marine
would soon arrive. He would have the
country do n thing more, to which
England had pointed the way for us;
we have nine navy yards and some
without a navy; If we would put the
expense OF those navy yards into build
ing up the great private ship yards, this
would form subsidy enough, or aid
enough, il Senator Beck liked this word
better; it would help enough, from the
saving in the construction of naval
vessels, to float this whole scheme for
the revival Of American navigation.
The election had shown that the pub
lie opinion of this country was in favor
Of keeping up American against foreign
manufactures, and he would say to the
upholders of protection, that this could
not be done by a destruction of the
commercial marine of the country.
Beck said he was glad that his pre-
%sentation, of what he thought was the
best policy, had called forth the premier
of the next administration. The sena-
tor from Maine had not denied, because
he knew it was true, that we had no
foreign carrying trade, nor that it had
dwindled since the war, nor that we
gave $40, DOC, 900 per year to build up
the trade of our rival and weaken our
selves, nor that while we give the right
to Germany, England and France to
carry our goods from our ports in cheap
free ships we are Handwriting ourselves,
nor that instead of having sixty or sew
enty thousand American sailors, as we
had in the late war, we have none now
