The United states.

The Omaha Bee says the United
States is the one nation in the world
that is steadily reducing its public
debt. Even with the enormous in
crease in expenditures every year,
made necessary by the growth and
development of the country, the re-
ceipts leave surplus every month to
be applied to the extinction of the
debt incurred during the civil war
In 1866 the public debt reached the
enormous aggregate of two and three
quarter billions, the highest point at
tanned. To-day it amounts to ont
billion and ninety-six million dollars
reduction of one billion six hundred
and seventy-seven million dollars il
twentv-three years. The debts 0
each of the FIVE great powers of thu
old world double and treble this sum
with the German states in the lead
and is even exceeded by Spain
While the United States has steadil
decreased taxes as we'll as the debt
IN Europe debt and taxes are in
creasing at an alarming rate to in
crease and maintain armies the great
est the world has ever seen. Peace
ful and prosperous, free from eatang
ling alliances, but ready to maintai
our rights against all corners, we ca
justly claim to be the most favore
nation on the planet.

to them: "W hat are you fellows do

employed by DR.. LOOMS, special
land agent, TO guard this land, and
see that no one files on it." The
three never questioned his authority
but took to their heels thoroughly

to shoot or not. However, they after
ward ascertained that the little mar
and two friends were there looking a
the land themselves, and the mex
day filed on the same in the Rose

Grant Case.

NEW YORK, Jan. A-There was a
conference to-day in the Trunk Line as
ISOLATION offices between trunk line rep
resentatives and Northwestern officials
over lake rates for the coming season
from the seaboard to st. Paul. Chair
man Blanchard, of the Central Traffic
association, presided, and among those
present were Acting Freight Commits
sioner Bullen, Chairman Faithorn, of
the Western States association; j. w.
Midgely, of the Southwestern associa-
ton, and Fl. l.. Shute, of the 800"
line. The subject, which is a perennial
one, has come up now because the OPEN
ing of lake traffic is fast APP
preaching. Rates to the North
west are considerably muddled
because of the lake Transporter
ton companies who in the summer sea-
son maintain low rate much to the in
convenience and detriment of the rail
lines, who cannot afford to compete with
the lake companies. TO endeavor to
establish ditferential rates on North
west business from the seaboard for the
coming season that will be equally sat-
iSfactory to lake and rail companies was
the purpose of to-day's meeting. All
the Northwestern roads were not rep
resented at the meeting, and after a
lengthy discussion it was agreed to
arbitrate seaboard rates to the North
west. Chairman Blanchard, who with
Chairman Faithorn, of the Western
States association, constitute the board
of arbitration in the matter, was author
lied to secure the consent of the absent
roads to the arbitration of the subject.
If they fail to agree, Chairman Ban-
chard will call another meeting, and
the subject will be reconsidered.

Bronson, of the Illinois Central; Boyden, of

yesterday at the Omaha offices to check

The Tribunes announcement, that a re-
newal of the conflict between Northwestern
lines and the 500 is TO be inaugurated by the
Willingness of The New England lines to pro-
rate with the Chicago roads, is generally
denied in railroad circles and stigmatized as
absurd.
General Passenger Agent Lomax, Of the

COLUMBUS, o., Jan. "a. The ties that
bind the mine workers and the Knights
of Labor have at last been cemented.
The joint committee of both organira-
tons made its report to-day. The con-
stitution presented was taken up by
sections and adopted with few slight
amendments. 1t provides that the name
OF the new organization Shall be the
United Mine Workers of National
Division Assembly 1876, K. of L., and the
National Progressive Union. Thus the
names of both old organizations are pre-
served. The national officers will con-
siSt of president or master workman,
vice president or worthy foreman,
Secretary-treaSurer, and an executive
board composed of seven members. The
constitution further provides that any
member in good standing, of either the
Progressive Union or n. D. A. 1876, K.
of L., shall be eligible to office under
the amalgamation, providing he be-
comes a member of both organizations
before qualifying. This provision is
occasioned by the fact that the Mp. u.
is an open organization, and n. ID. A.
1876 a secret one. The time of the an
nual conventions is fixed on the second
Tuesday in February of each year. the
place to be voted upon at each preced-
ing convention. This practically settles
the whole matter, and the remainder
of the session will be occupied in routine
business and fixing national scale of

Breathes His Last.

WOODSTOCK, Va, Jan. 23.-Harrison

His death had been expected for several
days. His family were present when
he died. Mr.. Riddleberger was born

seventeen years old when the war broke
out. and was for three years in the Con-
federate army as lieutenant of infantry

he studied law and was admitted to the
bar, beginning his practice at Woodstock,
where his home was. For two years he
was commemorative attorney for his
county; he served four years in the
house of delegates and for similar
period in the state senate. He was q

Northern Pacific Extension

Inquiry at the Northern Pacific gem
eral Offices yesterday developed the
fact that there was something behind a
Tacoma dispatch announcing that the
directors of the Northern Pacific had
recently decided to construct a line
from Seattle or a point on the Puget
Sound railroad, to the international
boundary line, with branches to Bel
lingbaur Bay and Snip Harbor. A COM
pany has been in existence for some
years to establish such a line, and it
mas latterly been endeavoring to sell
out to the Northern Pacific, but the fig
ureS have been too high. There is in
consequence some probability that the
Northern Pacific is projecting a line of
its own to bring the other company to
terms or suffer competition by a line
that has its own eastern connections.

Important Land Gases.


important Land Gases.
Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The case of
the Wisconsin Central Rrailway COM
pany's land grant has been decided by
Secretary Noble. The land involved is
in townships A to AZ north, range west,
Ashland land district. Wisconsin, being
within the ten-mile primary limits of
the grant to the state of Nav 8. 1854.
now owned by the Wisconsin Central.
Also within the fifteen-mile indemnity
limit OF the grant of June 8, 1856, owned
by the Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Omaha railway. The case was settled
by mutual agreement as between the
railroads, but the United States has
certain rights. The Wisconsin Central
argued that the act of 1864 repealed the
act Ut 1856, SO that it could select lands.
Secretary Noble holds that this is not
the case and decides that these lands
expressly reserved and excluded from
the grant by act of 1864" and decides
that the railroad company must re-
nnqulsh the lands. The st. Paul and
Sioux City Railroad company has three
cases decided against it, and one in its
favor, by Secretary Noble. The COM
missioner OF the general land Office is
ordered to demand reconveyance of
lar ge amount of land to the govern
nent, entries having been maze upon
ltprlor to its selection by the company.
