GEN. JOHNsoN's MEMORIES.
He Makes an Address Upon His
War RecOIIectiOnS.

The address OF Gen. r. w. johnson
at st. Paul upon "War Memories" at
the Peoples theater yesterday after
noon, attracted rather light audience.
The general spoke from manuscript,
and his delivery was rather monotonous.
He advocated the using of the surplus
in the United States treasury for the
benefit of the veterans of the war of the
rebellion, his remarks being based upon
statistics which showed he had made
considerable inquiry concerning the
subject. He dwelt considerably upon
his personal "reminiscences of the war,
and gave thrilling account of the bat
tie of Murfreesboro. His most happy
hit was a sarcastic allusion to the re-
ported admission of Gen. Joseph E.
Johnston to membership in the G. A. r.

For a Soldiers Monument.

A large number of old soldiers met at
Levi Butler post hall Saturday evening
to discuss the plan of having a soldiers
monument erected here. E. W. Morti-

DEPEW'S IDEA.

Chauncy NJ. Depew said !:
"Blaine's letter was q surprise and
disappointment to me. | feel sure
that his friends will regret the step
he deemed it wise to take, and that
the majority OF them will not con-
slider it final. Blaine's declaration
will not necessarily prevent his
friends from nominating him for the
Presidency, neither will it prevent
him from accepting the nomination
should it be given 10 him. Ii the
National Convention should nomi-
nate Blaine with one voice, hesimp-
ly could not refuse to lead his party
whether he would or not. Blaine's
reason for writing that letter, was,
in my opinion, to dispel the idea
that he was seeking the NOM
ination. He has not sought it; he
is not seeking it, and he wishes his
position thoroughly understood. I
think one of the immediate effects
of the letter will be to make other
aspirants for The Presidency re-
double their efforts.

4 rg7SfrAACED VOTE OF
THANKS.

The Agricultural Society. in tend
ering vote of thanks to G. c..
Powning, its retiring President, did
something it should have avoided
doing. As a matter of courtesy it
might have avoided a vote censure
but vote of thanks was really out OF
place.
Mr.. Powning secured the Presi.
dency of the Agricultural Society
not to benefit the Society, but to
personally aggrandize himself. The
Board should have shown a little
more business sense and elected
some one else.
Only q few months before his
election he had written to the au-
thori.ies at Washington a long letter
stating that there was very little
agricultural land in the State fit to
raise anything on, etc.. etc. His
letter caused stoppage Of all sur
veys in this State for nearly year,
and gave it a black eye from which
it is Just beginning to recover. A
man who was SO antagonistic to the
interests of Nevada, and who had
done 30 much harm to them, should
not have asked for the Presidency
Of the Agricultural Society. He got
it, failed, plunged the Society in
debt, and if report be true, used the
$40, 900 appropriated by the State,
for purchasing land for the Society,
when the appropriation expressly
called for improving the old Fair
grounds. He failed because he
took hold of something of which he
knew nothing, and no doubt now
repents of his folly.
Under all these circumstances a
vote of thanks was out of place, and
will always in future lose its force
and effect, and be merely considered
. hollow, meaningless thing.

GOOD NEWSPAPERS WORE

The Examiner is striking heavy
blows at the rotten opium ring in
San Francisco. 1t has unearthed
mass of fraud and corruption which
is simply startling, and the exposure
duplicates a number OF high Of
ficials.
The Examiner found out facts
which the Government detectives
were unable to get within miles Of.
We would suggest to the Govern
ment that it discharge some of its
high-salaried and stupid detectives
and secure some OF the newspaper
reporters who have demonstrated
what they can do.
When the Examiner unearthed
the thug conspiracy headed by DR..
Josselyn, the other papers claimed
that the paper had been sadly
hoaxed. Now the case is on trial,
and the evidence fully sustains the
Examiner in all its allegations.

What Shall the Motor Rep

AS the new bridge of the Council Bluffs g.
Omaha Bridge company nears completion
the attention of the company is directed to-
ward the fitting up Of the motor line that is
to cross that structure and bring the twin
cities into closer relationship than ever be-
fore. The matter Just now under considera-
tion is the kind of motor power to be used.
Both steam and electric motors are being ex-
amincd and the comparative merits of each
ascertained. The question of choice has not
yet been fully decided, but the overhead
electric system is regarded with the most
favor, and if satisfactory terms can be ar
ranged it is probable that this system will be
adopted. The preparatory work is going on
at a lively rate, and when a final decision is
reached it will take but a short time to per-
feet all arrangements for putting the line in
running order. When the bridge is com
pleted and the line opened for public service
it is likely that cars will run every ten or
fifteen minutes, and as the fare will be but
10 cents the question of adequate communi-
cation between the two cities will be settled,
as quick trips and low rates, at short inter-
walls, are all that can be desired IN this direc-
ton.

Finishing Uncle Sans House.

The work of rebuilding the steps and butt
resses at the entrances of the government
building and replacing broken stone in the
walls is well under way and will be completed
in about two weeks. F. j. King, of Omaha,
has the contract, and has put several men at
work on the job. The east wall Of the build
ing is nearly all cleaned and its appearance is
much improved. The work in the interior of
the structure now shows up much faster, as
the furniture is beng placed in position. The
massive oak partition in the postoffice, con-
tanning the delivery windows, etc, is already
set, and gives that department a very hand
some and finished appearance. The two fire
places in the court room are completed, and
are among the most beautiful features of the
building. They are of polished Vermont
marble, with trimmings of the same material
unpublished and of Tennessee marble. The
marble is beautifully veined, and near the
top of the mantels are some fine specimens of
stone carving and engraving. In the center,
above each mantel, is set q handsome mirror
that reflects the beauties of the elegantly
furnished room. The marble work is all
done by the PicRel Marble company, of st.
Louis, and it IS done in a manner highly
creditable to that well known firm.
The word on the entire building will be
finished in about two weeks, but no changes
will be made until about the lst of July. An
earlier removal of the postofiice from its
present location could be made, but there are
certain formalitics to be observed in con-
nection with the occupancy of the building,
and the acceptance of the furniture cannot
be hurried. 1t is the intention of Postmaster
Bowman and his associates to tittingly cele-
brate the formal opening of the beautiful
structure to the use of the public by an in
augural banquet, but the details are not fully
arranged at present.

Other Items Caught.
A Great Strike Threatened.

There is no doubt but that the Union Pact
fc railroad are facing what may develop into
a strike by the side of which the Chicago,
Darlington & Quincy difficulty will appear as
a pigmy. The variously employed depart
ments of the force are so thoroughly organ
lied that should the pending trouble come to
a head every engineer, fireman, brakeman,
switchman and minor employe would walk
out, and the great Union Pacific would be
absolutely paralyzed. Whether this condi-
ton of things will result, a short time, per-
haps a few hours, will determine.
The trouble is the result of a recent order
that Kansas City engines and cars would run
over the Union Pacific bridge, from Omaha
to Council Bluffs. II this order is enforced
the powers that be-, say nothing can
avert a wholesale walkout. 1t is thought
that the matter will be compromised in som
way. Various rumors were afloat here yes
terday, one to the effect that a strike had
been ordered and would go into effect this
morning; another that the Union Pacific had
proposed to run the Kansas City cars over
the bridge with their own engines, which
had been accepted by the engineers. Both
have been disputed by those whose positions
entitle them to know whereof they speak.
The recent small "walkout'' is by no means
settled. The matter is being Investigated,
which may prove an important factor in the
case. 1t is declared to be a fact that the
Union Pacific engineers will not run or be
associated IN any way with the 20 scab' en-
gineers. Without doubt the Union Pacific
officials will protect themselves by all fair
means, and that, too, without doing any in
justice to those who serve hem and the pub
lie.
The Union Pacific officials say that the
matter has been amicably adjusted, and that
as long as no Burlington engines are allowed
to come over the bridge the employees can
find no cause for complaint, alleging that the
little difficulty of a few days ago at the trans
fer is permanently settled.
The Burlington officials claim that they do
not care whether their engines cross the river
here or not, as the cars are all they are
anxious about. They say they are perfectly
willing for the Union Pacific to furnish
engines, if that company thinks it will be
cheaper in the end. From present indIca-
tions the matter will be amicably settled
without further trouble.

Entered Into Rest.

Yesterday morning at 4 o'clock Miss Emma
Josslyn died at the home of her sister, Mrs.
II. w. FELTON,, No. 527 Fifth avenue. The
fatal ailment was tonsilitis and diphtheria.
She had been q partial invalid for many
months. and when this last and fatal compli-
cation developed, less than a week ago, the
sufferer possessed but little constitutionalIyi-
tality TO Withstand it. The faithful attend
ance and illustrations of loving hearts and
hands could not stay the destroyer, and when
the doors Of the east opened TO let in the day
the rejoicing and triumphant soul reluctantly
left the tenement of clay and was borne, by
unseen hands, through the portals into the
presence of HIM she loved and in whom the
faith of a christian heart had been perfected.
She left a glorious testimony, for she was
beautiful in character and her last words
associated the names loved most on earth
Jesus and ''mother.r
The deceased was the yougest daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. l.. H. Josslyn, Of Jonesville,
Wis, at which place the daughter was born
and passed the most of her life, and at which
place the parents now reside. She was a
sister of Mrs. IL, w. Tilton and also OF Mrs,
II. M. Pryor, who is visiting at her parents
home. The family was notified Of her CON
dition and last evening the bereaved mother
arrived here in time TO view the loved one.
On account of the contagious character OF
the disease no public funeral service was
held. The body was incased in a white satin
casket which was literally covered with
beautiful flowers, testimonials OF, the love
and sympathy of many friends, The burial
time was most fitting. The body was taken
10 Fairview cemetery, where brief but touch
ing services were held by the Rev. G.. w.
Crofts, of the Congregational church, and
inst as the sun was sinking to rest the body
OF the loved.one was placed in it's final resting
ing place. Words are meaningless in the
presence of death, but acts as well as words
have told how great is the sympathy ex-
tended TO those who mourn the loss of their
loved one.

What the Railroads Think.

The following letter from MIR. Eustis, gen.
eral passenger and ticket agent of the b.. g.
Nj. railroad, to Mr.. Zevely, secretary of the
board of trade, shows what the railroad COM
panies think of the Chautauqua question. 1t
speaks volumes in favor of the establishment
of an assembly at this point:
b.. Zevely, secretary, board of trade, Council
Bluffs:
OMAHA, May 29.-Dear sir-I am in receipt
of your valued favor of the 2Sth, making cer
tain inquiries in regard to our Chautauqua
assembly at Crete. l can only answer your
questions by the general statement that up to
date we have made nothing out of the Crete
assembly in my opinion. OF course, it is diff
ticult to tell, but my judgment is likely to be
correct. We are encouraging it because we
believe that the time may com that it will
pay us from a passenger standpoint, and as it
is located right in the heart of our local ter
ritory we think it will not be "a bad invest
ment if we should merely come out even on
it, such things having a good influence upon
the community generally. Yours truly,
u. S. EusTIs,
General passenger and ticket agent.
