A terrible railroad collision occurred
at Gibson station on the Burlington Il
Missouri River railroad Tuesday even
ing. About thirty passengers and sew
eral railroad employees we're more or
less injured; one OF them has since died,
and in njurics sustained by several others
may prove fatal. Although Gibson sta
tion is within five miles OF Omaha no
reliable report was obtainable from the
Burlington managers or local employees.
AT Burlington headquarters and at the
B. & NJ. depot the accident was repre-
sentcd rs of triling consequence.
Even at this late day full
list OF the MANNED passengers
is not obtainable, All that has been
published concerning the victims of the
collision has been drawn out from hotel
clerks and hospital wards. At the cor
oner's inquest over the body OF Reulaud
the most that could he got at was tho
relation of the circumstances that
brought about the disastrous collision.
Now what excuse can Manager Hold
rege or his subordinates offer for con-
cealing from the press and the public
the true state of affairs and the condi-
tion of each aud every person who was
injured? The practice of suppressing
reports about railroad accidents and
Withholding information about passcn-
gers or railroad employees who have
taken passage on wrecked trains is rep
reheusfble. There isno valid excuse for
suppressing such reports. The public is
entitled TO them at the earliest possible
moment. There can be nothing gained
in Withholding them. The facts are
bound TO be known sooner or later, and
it is simply outrageous and cruel to
keep people who have relatives and
friends aboard in suspense as TO their
condition or safety. Even whore an ac-
cident is entirely unavoidable and no
blame can attach to anybody for its oc-
currcnce railroad managers should be
in duty bound to furnish the press all
the information that can be had at the
earliest moment.

THE meeting of the National Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers, now in
session at Denver, is of considerable
local interest. The Brotherhood will
elect a new chief and Nebraska is the
most formidable rival Chief Arthur has
for the honor. George Vroman, Of North
Platte, the chairman Of the grievance
committee, has large following and a
fair prospect OF success. The engineers
are the most conservative of all labor
organizations, and the order has MEM
bership of twenty-six thousand persons,
together with n we'll piled treasury.
Should Mr.. Vroman be successful in his
canvass, the headquarters of the order
will, OF course, be located in this state,
probably at Omaha. The benefits to be
derived from Vroman's election would
be considerable, and all Nebraska en-
gineers should assist TO such result.

COMING 10 AN AGREEMENT.
Three Ordinances as to the Union
Depot Proposition.

The following is synopsis of the three
ordinances before the city council relative to
the Union depot and viaduct projects:
The first ordinance authorizes and in
structs the mayor of the city of Omaha and
Alvin Saunders. trustee, to convey to the
Union Pacific Railway company all the right,
title and interest of the city in certain depot
grounds in tho city OF Omaha.
The preamble to the ordinance recites
That Alvin Saunders. as trustee, conveyed
to the Union Pacific Railroad company, on
January 20, 1872, certain lands to be used by
the company for the purpose of erecting and
maintaining and operating thereon passenger
and freight dcpots. The description OF the
deed given by Alvin Saunders to the COM
pany omitted 10 include lot g. IN block 236, in
the city of Omaha, and other property held
in the city of Omaha by Saunders as trustee,
The Union Pacific Railroad company has,
since the date of the transfer named, became
consolidated with other corporations ana is
now known as the Union Pacific Railway
company. In order to convey the property
to tho Omaha Union Depot company,
the Union Pacific Railway company's title in
the property must be perfected as by the
Saunders deed the company can not deed
the property TO any other corporation what
ever for any purpose. The Union Pacific
company therefore is unwilling to convey to
the Union Depot company any OF the prem
ises heretofore conveyed TO the Railway COM
pany by Saunders unless the city of Omaha
conveys to the Union Pacific Railway COM
pany company by deed all of the remainder
of the real estate held by Alvin Saunders as
trustee.
The ordinance then mstructs the mayor
and Alvin Saunders, trustee, TO convey by
deed to the Union Pacific railway company
the following property:
The south a of lot 3, block 244; 900 square
feet of the southwest corner OF lot q, block
pa; SIG square feet off the west side Of the
south 81 feet OF lot /, block 245 243O square
feet off from the south end of lot2, block 245;
all of lots and 4, block 245 lying north of the
section line between sections 23 and 26, in
township 15 range l3; all of lots l, 2, 3, 4,
6, and in block 267, and 200 square feet
Off from the northeast corner of lot 3, block
267.
The deed is to be presented TO the Union
Pacific Railway company when the Omaha
Union Depot company with the Union IA
cihc Railway company and the Chicago, Bur
lington e. Quincy Railway company as secur-
tiles, have delivered and executed the bond
required by the city and described in the or
dinance submitting to the people the ques-
tion of voting Sl500OO in bonds in aid OF the
Omaha Union Depot company.

The disabled Hamburg American
steamship Italia, from Hamburg, ar
rived yesterday in tow of the Gellert,
from Havre, October ,, says the New
York Sun. The Italia's shaft broke at
10 o'clock on the evening of Octo-
Der Z. Iron bands were fast
ened tightly around the place
where the break occurred, and the
ship managed to keep steerage way on
her with the repaired shaft. The Gel
lcrt was sighted at 4:30 n. IN. on Thurs
day, October 10. She made fast two
siX-inch steel hawsers to the Italia, one
at the port and the other at the star
board bow. The hawsers were length
ened by heavy chain cable until the dis
tance between the ships was over n
thousand feet. Then the task of towing
the crippled ship 750 miles was begun.
The sea was moderate that day. and
the ships averaged about nine miles an
hour. The Italia's propeller was kept
moving enough to ease the task of the
towing ship. A gale from the north
west kicked up a big sea next day. A
can of oil with small hole in the bot
tom was set over the stern of the Gel
lert. The effect, Captain Kampt of the
Gellert says, was magical. The course
of the Italia was made easier, and the
strain on the hawsers lessened.
The Gellert towed tho Italia up the
Hudson. and then steamed to her docks
in Hoboken.

THE COUNTY TREASURERsH1P

The treasurer of Douglas county nan
dies nearly million dollars annually.
The position demands a man of first
class business ability, who has expert
ence as an accountant. He should not
merely be a fgure-head with deputy
to do his work, but should be in condi-
tiou to devote his entire time to the dis
charge of the duties of his Office and
supervision of his subordinates.
That Mr.. George Heimrod is in every
respect better qualified for the position
of county treasurer than his competitor,
Adam Snyder, must be conceded by
everybody who knows the two men.
Heimrod has personally conducted
successful mercantile business and for
years had personal charge of the book
keeping Of his stores. He is clear
headed and educated for the work in
hand. If elected he will be able to de-
vote his entire time to the office.
Mr.. Snyder is Il butcher by trade and
in that trade he has probably no supe-
riors. But he is notoriously incompe-
tent as an accountant, and in his own
bookkeeping he depends entirely upon
hired help. His business as a meat
dealer and butcher requires his per-
sonal attention, and even if he were dis
posed to neglect his own business for the
benefit of the county he is not qualified
| to handle its finances. The only
! fnanceering upon which he has ven
| tured has been in connection with the
bank in which himself, Pat Ford, and
several other councilmen who had
stock were bitten, and IN which cred
| itOrs and depOsitOrs were confidenced.
| AS between the two men, irrespective
of party issues, Mr.. Heimrod is by all
odds the safest man for the taxpayers of
| the county.

IT is a common boast in Iowa that
prohibition has declmated the peniten-
tiuries ard rendered iails absolutely
useless. The court docllets violently
contradict the statement, or else null
titude of fugitives from justice are
running at large. Taylor county fur
nishes striking proof of the stubborn
fact that crime is still on the rampage
in Iowa. The criminal court docket of
that county contains indictments
against four felons, two embezzlers, two
forgers, and one assailant of virtue, and
the grand jury is still at work. These
crimes can scarcely have been brought
about by the traffic in liquor, since we
are assured by Governor Larrabee and
other men of authority, that the rum
power has been driven from the state,
The natural inference must be that
crimes are perpetrated in Iowa despite
the prohibitory amendment.

TDJHO'S EMPTINESS.

The people of Idaho will vote next
month on the constitution recently
framed, and if the work OF the conven-
tion is ratified by the popular vote the
next congress will be asked for legisla.
tion TO enable the territory TO become a
state. 1t is hardly probable, however,
that such Il request would be granted,
for the reason that Idaho can not show
falr claim to such consideration in
the important matters of population and
material development The cOndi-
tions precedent to statehood are
wanting and there appears to
be no better reason for seeking it at
this time than the fact that there is
very large crop of politicians in the
territory who would like to occupy COM
Portable state Offices. 1t is said that the
number of aspirants for positions under
a state government is wonderfully out
of proportion to the sparse population.
There are no less than thirty would-be
United States senators, nearly a
score of individuals who would like
to go to the lower house of
congress, and a great many
more who aspire to be governor,
judges, and other state officers, 1t is
the self-seeking politicians of Idaho
who are the most clamorous for state
hood. There is a large body of the
people quite satisfied with the territor-
ial condition for the present.
Upon the most liberal estimate the
population of Idaho does not exceed
from siXty-tive to seventy thousand, and
that the amount of land available for
agriculture is very small. Until
the territory is supplied with
general system of irriga-
tion it cannot provide for very much
larger population than it now has, an
it will be some years before this can be
accomplished, even if the government
should at once adopt liberal policy of
irrigation. Then as to material devel-
opment, it has not yet attained the pro-
portions necessary to support q tate
government. The annual report of Gov
ernor Shoup to the secretary OF the in-
terror gives twcnty-three million
dollars as the sum total of the prop
crty assessment, so that it would be
| necessary to fix the tax rate at an OPP
pressive figure in order to obtain suf-
fcient to meet the necessary expenses
of state government. Already taxa
tion in the territory reaches almost
everything, and yet there is debt of
about two hundred thousand dollars.
What would happen if the government
got lnto the hands OF lot of greedy
politicians can easily be coniectured.
Obviously Idaho is not in condition
to be elevated to statehood, and is not
likely to be for some years to come. To
| admit her as she is would simply be to
| repeat the mistake made in admitting
| Nevada, and this no party will venture
to do.

TTUTIW ISTIIIII ITTUtl FHtINWI,
The nomination of Laws for congressman
is another victory of the corporation power,
Mr.. Laws being one of the most obedient
tools of the railroads, and as a member Of
the board of transportation having deceived
the people in terrible way, voting for re-
form when he wanted the nomination for
secretary of state, and refusing to carry out
the plan he had voted for, as soon as he had
the nomination, obeymg from then on the
bidding of the railroads. In congress he
would be a supporter of all railraad schemes.
