FIVE months ago when Gen. Logan
was nominated for the vice. presidency,
Senator Henderson filed his presumption
claims on Logan's desk in the senate
chamber, which Is located favorably for
oratorical display and for casting Sleeps
eyes up to tho ladies' gallery. The
junior Nebraska senator is in q fair way
of proving up by the 4th of March, and
getting his patent for the next four years.

TOO MUCH DANGER.

ANc" WIZ ~ "S
Republic" are concluded, we think it
eminently proper to say a few words con-
corning that affair which really ought to
have been said before. Never again
should the school children of Omaha be
allowed to participate in any such exhi-
bition. In the first place the board Of
education has ample means to purchase
an illuminated clock and a piano without
depending upon a percentage of the re.
ceipts of such entertainments. IL the
board has not the means to pay for these
luxuries, then it better go without them.
The cost of Illuminating the proposed
tower clock will be a great deal more than
the price of the clock itself, and we can
not see much advantage in 1t anyhow.
The fact of the matter is that this clock
scheme was only suggested by the shrewd
manager of 1.-THE Great Republic" so
that he could utilize the school children
in the presentation OF The drama, the
receipts of which are of courss intended
for the most part to go into his pocket.
We have no fault to End with that, how.
ever, as the children perhaps receive
some benefits, but there is a very serious
risk in collecting between 5n0 and 600
children upon the stage of an opera
house, and attracting q large
audience composed to great
extent of boys and girls. Children
are easily frightened, and the slightest
alarm might create a panic which would
result in the loss of a great number of
lives. Such things have occurred, as
children are timid and like sheep-where
n leads the rest all follow. Not many
years ago, as we are told, a panic did
occur at Grand Rapids, Mich, during
the performance of this same historical
drama, under the direction of Mr.. Hagar,
and the same thing Is liable to occur at
any time. 1t is true that 300 or 400
grown persons frequently gather upon the
stage in the production of some popular
play, but they havepresence of mind and
are prepared to act In case of an emer-
gency. Even with men and women the
overcrowding of a sssgsis q risk, and has
sometimes resulted in loss of life. The
cry of fire by some drunken wretch or ex.
cited fool will at any time create a fatal
panic In a crowded theatre, and such an
incident Is liable to occur any day.
Too much precaution cannot be exercised
In gathering a large body of children in a
public hall. We should have made q pro-
test at the outset against the performance
but the board Of education
had given it's permission, and
all the arrangements were made, before
we learned that any ouch entertainment
was again to DO permitted in Omaha.
Had we then made a protest, we should
perhaps have been accused of malicious
intent. 1t should never have been pei
mitted, and In the future we shall mostvig-
orously oppose any such entertainments.
There already enough risks without
adding any more simply for the sake of
helping out a travelling Snowman, who
makes the purchase of a clock or a piano
the excuse for getting up snoh perfor-
mances, which are really intended for the
benefit of himself. 1t may be a good
thing to give dramatic training to child
reu, but it certainly does not compensate
for the great risks incurred in thepresen-
tation of such dramas as "The Great Re.

The Candidates.


Hon. J. NJ. Armstrong, the repub-
lican nominee for delegate to con-
gress from this territory, is a resi-
dent Of Spokane Falls, and has been
in the territory for the past six
years. He was for several years
acting commissioner Of the general
land office at Washington, during
Commissioner WilliamsOn's admin
stnatlOn, and while acting in that
capacity prepared, rendered and de-
livered many Of the most important
rulings with which the land laws of
the United States are now protected.
He is a man Of mature Judgment,
superior intellect and temperate
habits, and by virtue Of these qunll-
ficatiOns, coupled with his extensive
acquaintance with prominent men
and affairs Of the nation, will make
for his constituents 10 this territory
a vluable and highly influential rep
resentative. HIS private life Is
said to be without a stain or blem-
ish, and his Oft ial conduct has ever
been above reprOach. As token of
his fealty to the principles on which
the grand old republican party was
founded, II need only be said that he
was among the first who responded
to his cOuntry's call, having enlisted
as a private In the Thirteenth Iowa
Volunteer Infantry. As a mementO
Of the services rendered his cOun-
try, he carries a wooden leg as Il sub
stltute for the one left on the field Of
engagement at Charlottesville, Nir-
ginia. His sympathies and ex-
pressed sentiments are thor
Oughly In accord with the peO-
Pile Of this territory. He stands
SquHrely upon the platform adopted
in the convention. He was not the
choice Of the Northern Pacific nil-
rOad, nor did he at any time receive
one single vote from that element
represented in the convention.
Neither Is he, upon the other hand,
IN extremist; he Is opposed to any
extreme measure that would have
tendency to retard the growth Of, or
initiate against the prosperity and
hest interests Of the territory. Con-
siderlng the peculiar circumstances
surrounding and attending the de-
libenltiOns Of the convention, the
Rereile regards the final result ~
one Of the utmost good fortune. 1t
was possible, in view Of the cOmbina-
tions that were formed against Hon.
c. NJ. Bradshaw, for the convention
TO have made a grave mistake-an
irreparahle blunder. That they did
not, is now evident. And that Mr..
Armstrong will receive the united
support Of the republican party Of
the territory Is conceded fact that
will he confirmed and demonstrated
when the returns Of next Novem-
ber's election shall have been cam
vassed.

Banded Thieves.


lWAAA VAIN Aulousl
Dell Laman, postal agent on the
Northern Paridc railroad, came in
Sunday from Heron Siding md tells
the following "doing" nj a gaEg Of
thieves who have eadquariers vt
HerOn Siding and Belknap. On
Friday last IN INN grant hund for
Portland from the east, stopped over
at HerOn Siding the solicitation Of
"iarmer" friend with whom he
made an acquaintance on the train.
The "farmer" told wonderful stories
OF the wealth to be made at Heron
and by his representation induced
his immigrant to clay over" a day
or so. On Friday the former pilOted
the immigrant TO "Clarke's house."
a noted thieves den, and without
further ceremony began betting on
three card monte, winning at every
turn. The immigrant thought that
he had good thing, so to speak,
and with a little eOaxing took n
hand in the game, losing every bet
until all his loose change had passed
over the table. The "fariner" in
sisted that luck wOuld change, and
pulling out roll nf bills beg IN bet-
ting heavily winning at almost ev-
cry turn. The immigrant still fought
shy Of the game when he was in
duced to take n drink, after which
he became dazed and stupid, and
while In that condition he pulled out
u roll Of bank bills, representing ST.
go, losing the entire amount In
three hands. Twice $500 Was placed
%, a, ...,-N .,r,H In.t the rn,,, ,g.f9,s, : III
meeting the same fate. Having no
further use for green down easter,
the ''farlnrr" dropped his disguise
and threw the immigrant out OF the
house. This rather aroused the lat
ter's ire and he began to tear around,
declaring that he had been robbed.
A fight ensued, during which the
immigrant was badly used up, one
Of the thieves firing two shots at his
victim, but fortunately without do
ing any damage. The facts were
telegniphed to Superintendent
Caples of the Northern Pacific rail-
road at MissOula. That gentleman
answered 10y ordering the arrest Of
the thieves ~ n warrant would he
sent down on the next tr;.in. The
tmieves were arrested by deputy
sheriff, hut succeeded somehow in
sending word TO cOnfederates in Bel
knap Of their trObles, asking for help.
The prisoners were placed on the
east bound passenger under a strong
guard. When Belknap was reached
the thieves tried TO make a break
and were aided by about 20 men
armed with rifles and revUlvers.
The guards stood their ground and
threatened to shoot the first person
who attempted to rescue the prison.
ems The train was detained about
three-quarteFs Of ah Hour, the guards
md train men finally succeeded In
driving the tOughs hack aud start
ing the train. The immignint will
probably recover his money and Su-
perintendtnt Caples says the North
ern Pacific company will assume all
the responsibility Of eonvieting the
thieves and breaking up the gang.
During the past few months rObber-
les have been Of an almost daily Oc-
currenee, much 10 the detriment Of

WASHINGTON, Sept. ls.-The Secretary
Of the Interior has rendered the following
decision In re ard to lands WiIhn the
granted limits Of the Mort eTn Pacific
railroad, released from the reservation Of
the Crow Indians.
First-That even sectbns within this
leased reserve should be sold At double the
minimum price, $3.50 per ac e. With re-
gard 10 the odd sections, IL Is held that al
though Congress- intent in this case NAV
not be intirely free from doubt, that L
was one Of the purposes Of the agreement
10 afford an opportunity for the speedy
location and construction Of the railroad
without trespassing upon the rights VI the
Indian; vet In view OF doubt and the fact
that when the definite location was made
the release d d not become such as to re-
store the land to the public domain, | con-
cur in the opinion Of the Commissioner Of
the Land office, and affirm the decision.
'''he law of the case, having been substan-
TALLY settled by numerous decisions Of
the department In other cases, In regard
10 the price Of odd sections to bo disposed
Of where the grant is made, declares that
even sections, reserved 10 the United Sta
shall not be sold for less than $3.50 per
ac1e. The department Is construed vtly
authorized to treat the odd sections in the
same manner rs the even sections are
treated, and therefore tLey should bear
the same prize.
The Secretary says. II could not have
been the intent of Congress 10 fix differ
ent prices for lands lying side by side IN
common limits and governed by the same
rules Of disposal, baslng the difference on
the fact Of ONE sections bearing odd and
others even numbers In designating them,
the description being meply for purpose
Il survey and Identification. Tins dt,ci-
sion applies to all future disposal Of Lands
within railruad hints where the statute
requires double the minimum rates To be
paid for lands IN alternate settiOns.

This important organization Is nell
ther dead nor sleeping, and the
members hold occasional meetings
at which business Of considerable
importance Is transacted. A meeting
Of more than usual interest was held
in Glover's hall Monday last, where
the members present took up several
matters Of a vast weight which were
discussed and taken under advise
ment. The condition OF the county
roads ndlatlng from this city was
discussed at length. The vital i'm
portance Of keeping these highways
in good passable condition Is fully
understood by the members and In
order to make necessary repairs on
some Of the roads reported in poor
repair a committee consisting Of
Messrs. Glover, Cannon and Candy
was appointed to at once look into
the matter and order such work done
as they deemed necessary. The gem
tlemen are not .he kind to procrastl-
nate In a business Of this description
and Tuesday morning they have
made arrangements to push such re-
pains as the roads need. A short
time ago n gentleman Of large means
and highly recommended visited our
city for the purpose Of locating
a distillery here II favorable arrange
ments could be made. This subject
was brought up last evening and re-
celved the encouragement Of all
present The distiller proposes to
use grain and potatoes In the manu-
facture OF hlghwines and alcohol,
and desires some figures as to the
cost Of securing water power site and
the material to work on. A commit
tee consisting Of Messrs. Morgan,
Browne and Bettis, was appointed
to examine into the feasibility Of the
enterprise and to correspond with
the gentleman having in view the
dlstillerys We hope to have a good
report from this committee in Il short
time. Other minor business was
transacted during the session Of the
Board.
