A NORTHERN PACIFIC JOB.

| n NUN nEnN EhCl1AN JVD'
The discussion OF the resolution Of Senator
Teller, OF Colorado, proposing to declare tor
feited the land grants made to to the Northern
Pacific and other railroads, by reason Of non.
compliance with the terms Of the grant, has
brought out some strange facts that seem deep
! ly and disreputably to involve ex.Secretary
Schurz and some other gentlemen, The terms
of the land grant to the Northern Pacific road
Involving some 100000 acres had been
extended several times by congress- but since
the forfeiture by the stoppagc OF work upon
the road in 1873, there has been no extension
by congress OF the time for completing the
road, so that the whole land grant Is, and has
been tor years, absolutely forfeited. Never
thelcss Mr. Henry Willard, upon getting pos.
session Of and resumlng work upon the road
in 1879 went on mortgaging and selling the
lands the same as if the companys title was
unquestionable. 1t had been n standing query
since then in certain legal and financial circles
how he dared to do So whether he was not SIN
gularly If not Culpably reckless, &c; but the
mystery was solved by the revelations as al
ready intmatcd, In the discussion the other
DAY IN the senate. I.appears Mr. Willard, on
getting possession of the Northern Pacific
road, finding the land grant to have lapscd,
and also finding, by the failure of an effort in
congress to have the grant renewed, that appli.
cation to that quarter for a renewal would
probably be useless, applied to secretary
Schurz, of the Interior Department. He could
not have applied to a more friendly quarter.
The question he asked Mr.. Schurz to decide
in his favor was, whether the land grant ex-
pired by Its own terms, or whether, to make
the forfeiture complete, 1t was necessary to be
declared so by affirmative action OF congress.
Mr. Schurz turned the question over to Mr..
Edgar M. Marble, then assistant attorney gen
cral of the United States, and that gentleman
prepared an elaborate opinion favoring Mr..
Wizards view of the case, and thereupon Mr.
Schurz formally and officially decided that the
grant of 100000 acres of land remained IN
full force notwithstanding the lapse of time to
which it had been limited, because congress
had failed by affirmative action to declare its
torfciture
The ugliest part of the business is to come
The decision was Of course worth millions OF
dollars to Mr.. Willard, and as there is nothing
mean about HIM, he didn't forget Mr. Schurz
and his faclle attorney. After the former left
the cabinet he was without occupation, and
having some experience in the newspaper bust
ness, Mr.. Willard kindly 'set him up" by pur-
chasing for and placing him at the head of the
New York Erening Post; and as Mr.. Marble,
on retiring from the attorney generals Office,
was also open for new offer, Mr.. Henry Vii.
lard kindly gave HIM the lucrative position of
solicitor general for the Northern Pacific rail
road
The whole affair has certainly an ugly look,
and will no doubt give the chief editor OF the
Eroning Post abundant occupation for months
20 como to clear 1t up.

PATERNALIsM RUN MAD.

In the light of big strike" for popularity
In the next presidential contest, as claimed by
certain stalwart newspapers our impression Is
that the project of John A. Logan to devote
the $60,000,000 of internal revenue derived
from distilled spirits TO educational purposes,
by distributing it among the states according
to the statistics of iliteracy, will not pan out
heavily. That would give Illinois, it Is est-
mated about $4,000, 900 year, and states like
South Carolina, Mississippi, &c, such a sum
rs would enable them to maintain quite gor
geous system of free schools, without a dol.
lars local contribution. If the federal GOV
rrnment proposes to furnish the money to
maintain common schools in the states, it
must adopt the necessary means to see that the
money Is properly expended, and that involves
taking charge of the whole common school
system of the states, employing the teachers
fixing their salaries, and providing suitable
corps of superintendent to oversee their work
besides normal schools to furnish competent
teachers, &c, &c, This, in a word, would be
paternalism run mad. If 1t Is the duty of the
national government to provide for the educa-
ton of the people, then it must also look after
their morals and religion, for all education is
worse than useless that does D,ngive its chief
attention to moral training, and that includes
religious training. The next necessary step,
then, would be national religion, with nation
al care of the churches, their pastors, &c.
When the federal government once ,nvades the
domain of the states to that extent II will be
but u step further, and it will be both natural
and inevitable, to take charge of all the other
functions of the state governments, their local
regulations, courts and so on, so that we shall
that of Russia but one as rIgidly, frigidly and
cruelty paternal.

FEARFUL RAILROAD DISASTER.

A terrible accident occurred ON Friday eve
ming of last week on the Hudson River Rail
road, between Kings Bridge and Spuyteu
Dyvel stations, near New York CITY The
Chicago Express had left Albany at 3 40 in
the afternoon, with l3 coaches, six Of them
being Wagner Palace Cars, a large proportion
Of the passengers being members Of the New
York legislature and politicians gathered al
| Albany, who as the custom is at Albany as
well as Springfield, in this state, during the
sessions of the Legislature, were hurryIng home
to spend Saturday and Sunday with their fam
lilies. AS the train passed Tarrytown special
train Of two or three coaches was waiting
there to convey thcaler gocrs to the city, and
the regular tram having passed thirteen MIA.
utes later the special started in pursuit As
the former passed the sharp curve at Spuyten
Dyvel some accident occurred to It's air brakes
and the train was stopped to right the Difficult.
ty. 1t appears no sufficient steps were taken
to flag the approaching tram. A brakeman
with red lamp ran few rods up the road
and swung his lamp, but the other train had
come too near TO be stopped and crashed in
TO the train in front The hinder car, in which
there were ten or twelve passengers, was part
ly crushed and partly telescoped with the next
car in front, and Immediately taking fire, such
of the passengers IN the rear car rs were not
killed outright were burned to death Not one
Is believed to have escaped. In the next car,
some twenty passengers, most of
them were badly injured, though it IS thought
none killed Both cars IN less than an hour
were reduced to ashes. The rest of the train
an hour later proceeded on It's way to the city.
Among the killed were Senator Webster Wag.

bear his name also Mr. and Mrs Valentine, a
young married couple from Bennington, Yer.

wounded were at least dozen of members of

accident is generally charged upon George

Smallpox,

The nearest smallpox has come to Ottawa is at
the village of Serena, where a case appeared dur
ing the past week. The victim was Mrs. Marx
Hoag Where she came in contact with the dis
ease is unknown. She had been only IN Ottawa
and in Sheridan, travelling on the cars of the c.,
B. Il Q. road. She was taken sick late last week,
but her disease was not identified until Monday
last. Her case was very violent one, and re.
suited in death on Wednesday evening. Until
the disease was identified, the people OF the vii.
lage, who are noted for their general benevo-
lence and neighborliness, had no hesitation il
going to visit her, and rendering such assistance
as they could. After the disease was known the
authorities took instant precautionary measures,
barricading the streets near the house, dismiss
ing school, &c. At this writing no more cases
have appeared.
The patients at Norway are recovering.
The case at Wallace appears to have been
"chicken"-pox.
1t has been rumored that there have been casee
among the miners and foreigners at Streator and
La Sale, but no confrmatory statements have
appeared on good authority.

In France, on the 18th, Gambetta in the

Instead of senators, delegates being chosen
500 electors.
The principles Of scrutln de liste to be in.

SMALLPOX ITEMS.

This shows an increase since last week,
though the Board are hopeful there will be no
greater spread hereafter. The disease has
slowly extended southwark, following the
main lines of railroad travel between Chicago
and st. LOUIS, and along the Mississippi river
from 10 Daviess to Alexander, nearly every
county on the river now containing one or
more ccntcrs of infection. AT the majority of
these places the disease Is well under control
Vaccination or revaccination has been gener.
ally rcsorted to, and rigid isolation and quar-
antine OF patients and suspects enforced.
These measures have fully realized the promi-
SEES of the State Board and the detailed reports
now being received fully demonstrate their
efficiency
In Chicago the new cases have averaged
about per day during the week and about 5
deaths, with no symptoms of any alarming
increase or encouraging ones of decrease.
The score Is largely kept up by tramps who
when taken with the disease IN any of the sur.
rounding country, are hurried into Chicago
to be taken care Of Thus Health Officer De
Wolf on Wednesday was met at his Office door
by tramp who presented the following letter:
