EX-CoNGRRssMAN Tom MAJORS is
quoted by the Republican as an out.
spoken endorser of Conkling and his
course. Mr.. Majors is one of those
stalwart statesmen who applaud the
dishonorable surrender Of the republi-
can senator to the democracy by DELHI
crate desertion, and who desire to de-
grade the president to a mere lackey
Of each respective senator. Mr.. Ma
jors, if memory serves us correctly,
engineered the "historic flop" during
our late senatorial contest, and his
PERCEPTION of political honor seems to
have been sadly blunted.
1t is well, however, that we know
Mr.. Majors has pronounced against
General Garfield, so that when his
name comes up again for congressional
honors, republicans will know where
to look for him. We a~pprehend that
the great a of the party in Ne
braska is not disposed to send any
man to congress to antagonize the
head of the party, mol is it to the in
terest of Nebraska to be represented
by congressman who would emulate
the example of Platt and Conkling.

THE IOWA TON.

The Iowa republican state conven.
ton meets at Des Moines on Wednes-
day, June Goth. There will be l,O22
delegates in attendance and 5l2 votes
will be necessary for a choice. The
convention will nominate a governor,
Lieutenant governor, superintendent
of public instruction, and judge of the
supreme court. The political pot is
boiling vigorously throughout the
state and primary and county conven-
tons are being daily held for the
election of delegates.
The strongest interest centers
around the nomination for a success
sor to Governor Gear, the present
able state executive. State Senator
William B. Larrabee, Buren, r. Sher.
man, formerly state auditor; Frank f.
Campbell, now lieutenant governor,
and Ex-senator Harlan are the
leading contestants. The contest
seems to have narrowed down to Lar.
rabee and Sherman, and the support
ers of the respective gentlemen are
making an unusually active canvass for
their preferred candidates. So far,
State Senator Larrabse seems to have
received a large majority of the dele.
cations already elected. The entire
Third district is said to be pledged to
his support, and Clinton and Jackson

P-RoPosALsFoR PRINTING

Sealed proposals will be received by the under
signed until IL o'clock noon on the 9th day of
June, A. D.. 1881.
First-For doing the public printing of the city
Of Omaha, which shall consist of printing all the
advertisements, of whatever nature that may be
ordered printed by the city clerk or any city Off.
Ger with competent authority. Ten lines nonpa-
reil shall constitute a square.
Second-For doing the job work that may be
required, said job work to consist of printing to
order all blank work, furnishing the materials in
same, etc, or more fully, such work as is des-
cribed in the classification Of the last fiscal year.
Said bids shall be for doing the printing from
the list day Of July 1881, to the LIST day OF July,
1882. Said bids shall specify the prices for ali
classes Of printing in detail, and shall be accom-
panied with the name of the proposed surety,
who, in the event Of the awarding OF the con.
tract, will enter into a bond with the city of
Omaha fol. the true performance of said contract.
The city council reserves the right to reject any
and all bids. Envelopes containing said propos-
ais or bids shall be marked, "Propals for doing
the Printing" and be addressed to the under
signed. j. j. L.. c. JEWETT,

solid in his favor. His friends claim
that he will have nearly all of the
delegations from the northern part Of
the state, besides those of the river
counties, which will give him a decided
lead TN the first ballot. Sherman's
supporters are equally confident of
success, while others claim that in the
final ballot the contest will be mar
rowed down to Larrabee and Harlan.
For the lieutenant governorship the
candidates are: Hon. o. II. Man
ming, a successful lawyer of
Carroll county the Hon. LATE
Young, of Cass county, formerly
chairman of the Iowa senate commit
tee on railroads; Judge Stockton, of
Fremont, and John Ward, of Powe-
shiek county. The canvass for lieu
tenant-governor will be practically
settled by the nomination for the gov
ernorship.
There are a large number of aspi-
rants for the Office of superintendent
of public instruction. The preferred
candidates are Prof. Akers, of Linn
county; Prof. Saben, of Clinton
county, and the present incumbent,
Col. Abernethy, of Crawford count
General indications point to the re-
nomination of Col. Abernethy and the
same may be said of Justice Austin
Adams, of the supreme bench.
It is to be regretted that in the
present canvass consideration of the
railroad question has been neglected,
and tho subject of liquor prohibition
by constitutional amendment pushed
into undue prominence. If such a
constitutional amendment became q
law and failed of q better enforcement
than the recent experiment Of a
iihO HhIulo III TNhIlbdS, iowa,
prohibitionists would scarcely congrat-
ulate themselves over the result. On
the other hand, every farmer delegate
to the Des Moines convention will do
well to bear in mind the fact that the
railroad commissioners of the state
are appointed by the governor and
that the most vital interests of Iowa
producers may be seriously imperilled
by a nomination which is not in sym
with the great and powerful
agricultural class which forms SO i'm
portant al element of that great COM
monwealth. Before many months
Iowa, with every other western state,
will be forced to meet the transporta-
ton question face to face. Every eff
fort should be made in advance to
the forces of the opposi-
ton to corporation oppression and
monopoly misrule. Ji

A Skeleton Found.

The workmen employed at the new
settling basin of the water works, dug
out an almost perfect skeleton in the
sand bluff near by Friday. 1t was
taken out in pieces and was not &C.
ognized as a skeleton until the head
was reached, Long black hair still
chung to the Uranium. The skeleton
had apparently been wrapped up in a
blanket. 1t was not preserved by the
men and was probably a remnant of
the disappearing Pawnees.

Mr.. GLADsToNE's land bill is max
ing extremely slow progress in the
house of commons. The half hearted
support which Mr.. Parnell and his
followers accord to the measure is
more than counterbalanced by the vi
olent opposition of the landed aris-
tocracy in the liberal party end the
nncompromising hostility of the to-
ries. The bill is weighted down with
over eight hundred amendments, all
of which are debatable, and every in
dication points to its defeat by the
House of Lords if it succeeds in pass
ing the lower house in anything like
it's original form. &
On Friday the first open rupture in
the ranks of the liberals took place
" the discussion of an amendment
offered by Mr.. Henage, a liberal mem
Der, which proposed to take from the
operation of the bill all holdings which
had been improved by landlords or
their predecessors in title. The man
fest result of this amendment would
have been to prevent any sale of ten
ants interest, as every landlord would
have Immediately set up a claim to
some share in his tenants improve
ments, and an endless litigation would
have ensued. 1t was on this ground
that the government resisted the
amendment and called for a test of
party strength. A division was taken
and Mr.. Gladstone's majority fell
from 112 to 25 votes. If the Irish
members had not supported the gov
ernment the ministerial defeat would
have been complete. AS the case
stood the result showed a strong ALI
ance between the tories and the wing
element of the liberal party, and the
vote was received with tremendous
cheering by the opposition.
1t is not difficult to account for the
loss in party strength which Mr.. Glad
stones ministry has sustained since
the day on which it came into power.
The urgent necessity of a land reform
was universally admitted. Ireland
was in a temper at the time to cor
daily endorse a much less radical
measure than is o under discussion.
The land league was eager to offer its
assistance in preserving order until
such a bill was put into opera
ton. 1t was a time for the
ministry to turn a deaf ear to
the clamors for military rule in Ire
land, and passing by the considera-
ton OF all coercive measures, to de-
vote its energies to the rapid enact
ment of a law which would have re-
moved the principal cause of disaffec-
ton aud complaint among the Irish
tenantry. The passage of the coercion
act Immediately alienated all Irish
sympathy from the government. AT
a single stroke il antagonized not only
Mr.. Parnell and his party, but also
thousands of the radicals throughout
England. 1t failed to conciliate the con.
servatives and weakened the strength
of the liberal majority. If the govern.
ment had pushed forward the land bill
at the outset, even to certain defeat,
Mr. Gladstone could have appealed to
the country as a reformer and would
