mont, and that pays almost no attention
to public education, should be given
the privileges and responsibilities of
statehood. All Trustworthy testimony
coming from New Mexico couclusively
shows that the population Of that
territory, even if numerically suffice
lent to entitle IL to statehood, is not in
condition to give it a claim to a mo-
ment's consideration.
Judge Jeunison, of Detroit, who has
recently made an extended tour of
New Mexico and carefully observed all
that was worthy OF observation, is Of
the opinion that the greatest sufferer
in case of admission would be the new
state itself, since it would find itself in
possession of tools of administration
which it would not know how to use.
1t is in most respects two centuries be-
hind the rest Of the United States.
Among the incidents observed by the
judge was q trial in when the jury
OF MeXicans could not speak u
word of English. The testimony, the
species of the lawyers and the Judges
charge had to be translated to them.
''There is practically no native TALENT
said the judge, illegal or otherwise, yet
in case New Mexico were admitted as a
state from her legal talent must be
chosen the judges to administer heri inn
mature legal practices" The mongrel
Spanish and Mexican population is not
progressive in any respect, and 1t does
not readily assimilate with Americans.
To invest such n people with the dig
nifty and the duties of statehood would
not be to their benefit and would
be n wrong to all the rest of the
country. Yet this IS what Mr..
Springer and most of the democrats in
congress propose rs a condition to ad-
hitting the enlightened and enterprise
ing populations of Dakota, Washington
and Montana to statehood. 1t is a
striking example of how far partisan
feeling and interest may 60 in over
riding every consideration Of Justice,
patriotism and the general welfare.

A PROPOSED INVASION.

Very likely congress will not be seri-
ously disturbed or influenced by the
movement reported to be organizing to
invade Oklahoma, in the event of the
failure of the bill to create a territory
of that region. 1t is said that there is
now a force of between ten and fourteen
thousand in Kansas, under the leader
ship of Pawnee Bill, whose purpose it
is to march to Oklahoma City if con-
gress does not pass the pending terri
torial bill. The invasion is to be a
peaceful one if the invaders are allowed
to have their own way, otherwise they
will fight. Pawnee Bill and his follow
ers are misleading themselves.
Under no circumstance would
they be permitted to carry out
their protested purpose, because the
government of the United States could
not tolerate any business of the kind
contemplated. They would certainly
fail, and to not a few of them, if they
were obstinate, the failures would be
disastrous. The circumstance is worthy
of attention, simply as showing the in
tense desire Of the people OF Kansas for
the creation of the territory of Okla
homa, so that it may be opened to settle
ment.
The bill pending in congress pro-
poses to organize anew territory, en-
bracing within its jurisdiction all lands
in Indian Territory not occupied by
the five civilized tribes, together with
what is known as the public land
strip. The territory thus described
is bounded OF the north by Kansas and
Colorado, on the east by The Usage and
Greek countries, civilized tribes, on the
south by the civilized Chickasaw nation
end Texas, and on the west by Texas
Inc New Mexico. 1T embraces on the
eastern side eight comparatively small
reservations, occupied by different In
dian tribes, and in the greater part of
the southern side four or five large
reservations occupied by some of the
moro savage tribes. More than half
the territory, which has an area of
about thirty-seven hundred square
miles, or something less than that OF
Rhode Island and Delaware combined,
is now occupied by Indian tribes. The
portions not so occupied are mostly on
the north and contiguous to country
already occupied by the whites.
The proposal to organize Il new terri
tory from this region has met with a
good deal Of Of opposition and obstruc-
lion. The Indians, of course, are quite
generally opposed to it, and there is
also a very considerable white lnflu-
ence unfavorable to any change. In
time, however, the proposed terri
tory will certainly be organized,
and there does not appear to be
any sufficient reason why the first
steps in that direction should
not be taken at once. But obviously
the way to help TO this result is not by
al organization of the white people of
the contiguous country with the avowed
purpose Of selling the coveted land in
case the national government docs not
permit them to get it in another way.

THE immense tract of land in Colo
RADIO and New Mexico embraced under
the Maxwell land grant, has again
been brought into litigation. 1t has not
been very long since the supreme court
decided in favor OF the company, and it
was thought at the time that the right
to the land, whatever question there
was as to its justice, was settled once
for all. The suit just begun at Denver
is being pushed by a syndicate of cap
italists in behalf Of the claimants. The
prayer of t he petitioners is to the effect
that the Maxwell land company be for
eve enjoined from title to it. The out
conn of the suit is of great interest to
the people of Colorado and New Mexico.
Should the Maxwell land grant be set
aside, it will break one of the greatest
monopolies in the country.

man living near Haigler was billed TO make
final proof on his claim, before the county
judge, and two OF his neighbors were adver-
tised to act in the capacity of witnesses for
him. When the time arrived for the proof TO
be made the claimant and his witnesses ar
rived, in chains and IN charge of the sheriff.
The proof, however, was made and duly at
tested by the witnesses, the sheriff consider
ately removing the handouts from the gen
tlemen's wrists TO allow of a more free and
untrammeled use of the pen in signing their
names. The gentlemen in question were
under arrest for burglarizing u store at
Haigler, and the time for making proof and
the time for them to go to jail happened to
come on the same day.

A NECESSARY AMENDMENT.

The charter committee has taken
action to amend section 1855 of the CHAR
ter, which has been taken advantage of
This section of the charter provides
that judgments against the city shall be
paid out of the general fund or by a tax
levied on all taxable property within
the city. Under this authority, the
council has created debts and made lille
gal expenditures time and again by con-
Tossing judgments for claims that
should have been paid out of the gem
eral fund. With such overs in its
hands, 1t has been an easy matter for
the council to heap debts upon the city
in defiance of charter limitations.
The section opens wide the door
for municipal extravaganza and dishon-
esty. 1t is high time, therefore, that
the interests of the taxpayers and the
credit of the city be protected. The
amendment proposed to section 1865 will
commend itself to every citizen who de-
sires to check the council in its illegal
assumption of power. The amendment
provides that the mayor be prohibited
from confessing judgment for any claim
incurred for work lone or material furE
nished during any year, or anticipated
by previous obligations incurred, and no
Judgment shall be entered by the courts
against the city for such claimants,
unless it be SHOWN that such claim is not
in conflict with the provision. The
amendment, furthermore, provides that
the members of the council by whose
votes such obligations shall have been
individually incurred shall be liable for
the full amount of the obligations.
Hedged about with such restrictions
and penalties, the council will not rush
headlong into illegal expenditures.

THE evils of the justice shops are not
confined to Omaha. The cities of Ill
inois outside OF Chicago have been long
complaining Of the unsatisfactory con
dition of the present system of justices
OF the peace, and are taking measures
to secure relief. 1t is proposed to estab-
lish in cities and villages of fifty thou
sand or more inhabitants a convenient
number of district courts, with the
same jurisdiction and powers as
justices of the peace. The
judges of these courts are to be
appointed by the governor with the APP
prevail of the senate and to hold Office
four years. The salaries of such Judges
are to be fixed by the legislature and
paid out of the village or city treasures.
BY the proposed change in the justices
courts, fees are wholly abolished, thus
avoiding needless litigation and a
source of much wrong and oppression.

REV. DIR. DURYEA.
His First Lecture TO His New Conere-
patiOn.

RatiOn.
The Rev. DIR. Duryea assumed his duties
as pastor OF the First Congregational church,
yesterday. The gentleman has been called
here from Boston to fill the position he now
holds and great and many were the expecta-
tions and anticipations as to what manner of
man he was. His reputation as a preacher
and a divine is well known. He was heard
of long before he ever thought of taking up
his abode in Omaha. Therefore the church
was crowded at all the services yesterday
and many who are not regular worshippers
at this particular shrine might have been
noticed among the congregation.
In the evening, DR.. Druyea preached from
the text; "He b%ringeth his first born into
the world that he might be the first born
among many"
The world was created as now, full of life
and light. No new thing or animal had APP
peared since the creation. Man was the last
and noblest work of God. After man, God
rested aud then made nothing new.
Many of the original creations of
God had ceased to he. Others
had been improved and many made BEAUTIFUL
by development. All things were made by
Him and all made to serve Him. Subduing,
improving, perfecting was mans duty. Gre
alton mad been working from the lower to
the higher, and from the higher to n still
loftier and holier sphere. Man has been
endowed with intelligence, Imagination and
aspirations by which he may lift himself
and struggle upward to the best he can con-
ceive, Unfortunately, he Is often wrecked
and falls into that terrible abyss. Still he
has always within himself a desire to make
more of himself.
The creation was succeeded by growth,
growth by development and development by
improvement. Man had been given endless
development and immense Improvement,
The end OF man Is divine manliness,
the purpose OF the woman christian womanli-
ness. There must be a pure and perfect love
OF God, holy purpose and "a holy enthusiasm.
The preacher then spoke of the seriousness
he felt In addressing Il new congregation for
the first time. Ho hoping, however, that be-
fore the next time he addressed them he
would be familiar with their faces, and in
stead OF talking TO the clouds he could look
right into their eyes and direct his remarks
particularly to them.
The appearance Of the reverend preacher
in the pulpit Is rather impressive. He is
about forty-five years of age, with iron gray
hair, a lofty and striking forehead, with
strongly arched eyebrows and penetrating
eyes. He Is clean shaven and wears
the usual sacerdotal garb Of black. He is
what could be termed an eloquent
speaker, but is extremely impressive and
philosophical. He never rants and seldom
INDUCES in flights of rhetoric. He appeals
to the mind rather than the emotions. His
voice Is pleasing and his articulation such
that he may be distinctly heard in the re-
hottest part of the building.

DESPITE the fact that the south has
not kept pace with the marvellous
growth of the west and northwest dur
ing the past decade, it has made ma
terial progress. BY compilations just
made of the total assessments for 1858
OF real estate, personality and railroads
in the south, the taxable wealth of the
southern states is shown to be over
three billions, six hundred millions.
This statement indicates a great in
rease over the taxable wealth
OF the south in 1880, when it
was computed at one billion, two hun
dred millions. For the eight years,
Florida and Texas show the greatest,
and Virginia and Louisiana the least
advance in material prosperity. In
population, the south has gained
nearly five and a half millions
since the census of 1880. Taking it all
in all, the southern states heed not be
ashamed Of this showing.

THE resumption Of the fast train
service between Chicago and Omaha
and Chicago and Kansas City is again
being agitated in railroad circles. The
proposed restoration in passenger rates
and the action taken at the meeting OF
the general managers at Chicago to
prevent rate wars appears to afford
assurance that the fast train service
a be resumed without much risk OF
serious loss.

NEXT to a cabinet position, a foreign
mission appears to be most sought for by
statesmen and politicians. The candi-
dates who want to represent the United
States at the imperial courts of Europe
are, if anything, more numerous than
the men who wish to be called to Cen
eral Harrison's cabinet. The recent
interview between General Harrison
and ex-President Hayes has revived
the talk that a foreign mission will, in
all probability, be rendered Mr.. Hayes.
Whitelaw Reid is most likely to succeed
Minister Phelps to England. William
Walter Phelps, of New Jersey, aspires
to go to. Paris, while Colonel Fred Grant
Is being named for the diplomatic SER
vice to China. There is but little doubt
that President Harrison will have an
extensive assortment of candidates to
choose from for u diplomatic service.
