a great difference whose bull is

The Inter Ocean gives the followng
advice to visitors in Chicago: Leave
money and valuables in the safe at
your hotel. Take only the change
you need. There never were gath
ered at one place more expert pick
pockets than around Chicago just
now. We have the cream or the
fraternity, "the 400," as it were,
from all the cities of the east.
' Politics nd Business-
Chicago Inter Ocean.
It is now about a year since the
representative democrats of the
country assembled in Chicago, and,
among other things, made a fierce
onslaught upon the financial and
business policy of the party then in
power. At that time the country
was eminently prosperous. From
one end of the land to the other all
interests were thrifty. Wages
were high and everybody had em
ployment. The manufactories of
the country were running at full
head; farmers were getting good
prices for good crops; the banks
were accomodating, and commercial
paper was paid when due with a
uniformity which made times good
in every respect. Those harsh
croakings made no perceptible dif
ference with any branches of busi
ness. Everything continued to
move along prosperously all through
the campaign.
The result of the election was a
surprise to the business interests of
the country, but the people were
disposed to magnify jts importance.
They generally assumed that it did
not matter much, except to the
politicians, who was -president or
which party was given control of
public affairs. Seven months have
now elapsed since the election, and
three months since the inaugura
tion. Nothing has been done of a
definite nature by the administra
tion to disturb the prosperity that
prevailed nnder republican rule, .but
it is perfectly evident that a check-
has been put upon the,thrift which
prevailed under Harrison.. Jj
The truth is that the business
men of the' country wondered, and
are still wondering, what the people j
meant by taking the reins of au'--i
thorityoutof the hands of the
party under which everything was
moving so satisfactorily. As long
as this state of mind continues the
general tendendcy will be extraor
dinary caution. Merchants will go
light in their purchases, manufact
urers will tend to light runs, and
the banks will be rigid in the cur
tailment of credits. This general
tightening up can only be explained
on the ground thai when a country
which is in the midst of prosperity
makes a change in the government
the neople accept it as -a signal for
putting on the brakes.
It is to be remembered that the
issues joined in the last national
campaign were business issues. This
was true to a remarkable degree,
it is only natural that the business
men should inquire diligeutlv into
the meanine or the change, it is
to be regretted that Mr. Cleveland
did not call both houses of congress
together at the beginning of his ad
ministration. Had he done so the
suspense would have been over by
this time, probablv. iJusmess can
adjust itself to almost anything,
provided only the elements of un
certainty is eliminated. It is uncer
tainty which is peculiarly paralyz
ing in its effect upon all which
comes under the head of legitimate
enterprise and commercial confidence.

A serious encounter between
striking employes on the Chicago
drainage ditch and the deputy sher
iffs occurred Friday at Lemont in
which four or five of the strikers
were killed and a dozen or more
wounded. Troops were at once
called out by governor Atgeld, but
their services were not needed to
restore peace.
A contention of delegates from
"the various labor organizations of
the state will be held at Lincoln on

sending delegates and the number
will likely be materially increased
before the date of the conyention.
The old Ford theater at Wash-
ington, which was being used by the
government as an annex to the
- pension department, collapsed on
- Thursday of last week, resulting in
the death of twenty-one clerks
and the iujuryiug of about fifty.
The building was being underpin
ned at the time of the collapse.
And now S. Edwin Thornton has
preferred charges against Jav Bur
rows and J. M. Thompson for
alleged treason to the farmers1
alliance. The preliminary trial was
held last week, and the impeach
ment suit will commence the early
part of next month. The devel
. opements in the case, if given to
the public iu full, will far over
shadow the late impeachment farce
at Lincoln. '
Democrats all over the country,
including President Cleveland want
J. E. Campbell to be the nominee
. of the democrats for governor of
Ohio, but Mr. Campbell has no ap
parent vearning in that direction
He pitted himself against McKinley
- two years ago and invited outsiders
to observe how easily he could
' knock out the champion or pro
jection. People did watch, and thev
saw Campbell come out of the con
test the worst defeated man in the
country.
Of the 218 democratic members
of the fifty-third congress, at least
ninety can be safely "counted on as
uncompromising opponents of free
coinage, leaving about 128 in favor
of free coinage. The republican
membership of the house is about
127, and it will require only ninety
of these votes against free coin-
age to defeat it. lne presumtion
. is that not more than eight are
radical free coinage men, leaving,
say 120 opposed to that policy.
These, with ninety democrats would
make 210 sound money members,
and leave only 146 of all parties to
vote for free coinage. This is an
extreme estimate of the honest
money strength, says the Wash
ington correspondent of the
Springfield" Republican, for there
are several republicans in Iowa,
Michigan and Kansas whose views
on the subject are loose, and who
will probably vote for free coinage
just because Cleveland is against it.
"Working the Wrong Way
(Kearney II ab.)
On account of the Newberry bill
passed by the last legislature which
reduced the local freight rates on
certain articles but is so volumin-
ous and complicated that no one
seems to know just now what the
general reduction, if an', wiil be,
the railroad companies have decided
to "hedge1' against anjT possible loss
it might result in to them and on
and after this date have raised the
rate on corn and wheat three cents
per hundred pounds from Kearney
to Chicago.
The rate hererofore has been, on
corn 24 cents per hundred and
wheat 29. but under the new tariff
it will be 27 cents for corn and 32
cents for wheat. As the only effect
the Newberry bill can have is on
freight shipped from one point to
another in Nebniska and as the
farmers will get no benefit of what
is shipped in to Kearney aud will
have to pay three cents per hundred
more for all corn and wheat that is
sent out, it is hard to see where the
Newberry bill will benefit them.
There is not very much grain
shipped from Kearney, but em
ployes at the depot say that "the
shipments from Glenwoodand Buda
and other points that will be effected
the same as Kearney, ship from 300
to 500 cars per mouth and the in
crease in rates will average $10 a
car making from $3,000 to So,000 a
month that the farmers will have
to pay the railroad company more
than they did last year whereas the
wholesale and retail merchants will
get all the benefit of the reduction
iu local rates and the farmer will
never get a bit. The fight made by
the railroad company last winter,
. i i t i il
was lust a big scheme to make tne
farmers vote for the bill, and it
worked."
The present indication are that
the railroad companies will comply
as near as possible with the neiv law
and that the closer thc3r follow it
the more odious it will become.
Nebraska's Day of fry.
Chicago Ties.
Tno Nebraskans said that they were
dedicating their state building yesterday
morning, but the vast majority of the
crowd wavered between the belief that
they were dedicating Buffalo Bill and the
idea that the Spanish princess was going
to honor th e Nebraska building with her
presence. Anyway.it was a bowling
success and the petty so-called dedicating
of other state buildings sank- by compari
son into absolute insignificance.
The exercises commenced at 11 o'clock
with the appearance of a detachment of
the Seventh United States cavalry escort
ing Gov. Crounse. The governor entered
the building and the cavalry drew up in
line before it. Then a cowboy band ap
peared and sat down in the front yard.
The crowd began to thicken under the
influence of these attractions and indulged
in various surmises as to what was going
on. The portico of the Nebraska build
ing and greensward in front were soon
black with people. There were 1,500
Nebrnskans alone, and the crowd steadily
increased, absorbing each detachment of
sightseers that came down the avenue.
JJut when Buffalo Bill, at the head of a
glittering array of Indians, Cossacks;
uhlans, and cowboys, appeared jt seemed
as if the last possible particle of gor
g'eousness had been added to the Ne
braskan's celebration. But it hadn'tfor
when the motley army had been dispersed
in long flies stretching away down the
avenue for hundreds of feet and. the
crowd had looked .their fill at the rich,
and sunburst faces and-was just "drawing
a long; happy breath at the spleador.pt it
all the. garde dacorpa bind, glittering 4io
wliite and gold aBd blowing for all Its;
cappciovc lungs were worth, appeared.
Taa' Secretary ACrton, who aad'be?n sq:
bo8j;MOttttM prelimiBaryaRMeaeau
that aeJuMaJt Umeto think before; told
Commissioner Gameauvlhat he thought
at last they were all there, and Coaarfs
sioncr Garneau told Govf Crounse. and
tho governor- looked out at tho acres of
people and said he guessed they were and
they might.as well begin.
And then Nebraska, after a complacent
look on -the tens of thousands assembled
to do her honor aad see Buffalo Bill's
Indians, really began to dedicate. The
exercises were very short,, each speaker
being limited to four minutes Com
missioner. Garneau prose nted the building
to the exposition .and Gov, Crounso fol
lowed with, a clever impromptu speech
owTc6oi-td;th.abit:gust3.Fhe'
cowboy baad rendered some stirring
numbers andex-Gov.Funasand congress
man Bryan made congrauulrtory speeches.
Then Mrs. II. S. Fisk read a poem writ
ten for tho occasion by Kate 31. Clcary
of Hubbel, Neb., and tho dedicatory part
of tho program was over.
Through all the speeches and music
Gen. Cody sat in front of the building on
the great sorrel horse which Gen. Miles
presented to him and looked a very gal
laut figure. Over in the Wild West iu
closuro ho is Bufialo Bill, the pr'uco of
scouts and rough riders, but when it
comes to the dedication of the buildiug
of Ids state he is "W. F. Cody, ex-senator
of North Platte, colonel by courtesy and
brigadier general on the governor's staff.
And all the assembled throng who saw
him yesterday in his big sombrero and
silver fringed buckskin shirt didn't doub!t
for h minute that he was all theso things
and more.
By special request it the close of the
dedicatory exercises die calvacade moved
down past the New York and Pennsyl
vania buildings The Pennsylvania peo
ple rang the liberty bell and waved the
state ensign from the windows and thr
New Yorkers had their building hand
somely decorated. At tho head of the
procession came the cowboy band, then
carriages containing tho distinguished
Nebraskans, the list of which did not stop
with the governor and commissioner and
congressman Bryan, but little No Neck
boy, who was found at wounded knee
after the battle. Then came the Indians
and rough riders bringing up tho rear
They marched dow n the lake front, cross
ing over to the lagoon north of the man
ufactures building, and followed it down
to the electricity building and past that
to the administration, building, where a
halt was called. The crowd, who then
saw the princess Eulalia and Buffalo Bill
at tho same time will probably never see
two bigger people in the same day again
After a halt for tho princess to see the
Indians the calv acade moved over to the
agricultural building, where the gov
ernor's party inspected the state exhibit
This wound up the day, and the Indians,
Uhlans, and Cossacks went back to their
tents with tho conviction that if Nebraska
did not find herself properly and thor
oughly dedicated they had -lived in vain

Ail abstract of reports made to
comptroller of the currency, show
ing the condition of the national
banks in the United'States at the
close of business on the fourth day
of May last, has been made public
by comptroller Eckels. As com
pared with a similar statement madp
March G last a net decrease in the
gold holdings is shown of $7,000,000
and in indivdual deposits of nearly
2,000,000. An increase of undi
vided profits of $3,900,000 and of
surplus funds of nearly $1,000,000
is shown. The loans and discounts
increased $1,000,000, real estato and
mortgages owned decreased $500,
000, aud the legal tender holdings
increased $13,000,009.
The recent run on the Chicago
savings banks will have the good of
showing that these institutions are
strong, and are fully able to meet
all legal demands upon them. Un
doubtedly the national banks of the
same city are m a similarly squijq
condition.
Secretary Carlisle is reported to
be on the anxious seat over the
special report of agent Ayers on the
tin plate industry, says the Lincoln
Journal. The showing of the new
industry does not suit the potitical
theories of Mr. Carlisle which
makes it quite necessary that the
manufacture of tin plate in the
United States should be a disastrous
failure. The report is therefore
pigeonholed for an indefinite period
though it has been ready for pub
lication for several weeks, Proba
bly it will be found expedient to
suppress it altogether, as it makes a
very good showing for the growth
and prosperity of the industry
that the democratic party has
pledged to destroy in its infancy
lest it should prove a poteut argu
ment for protection.
In less than three months
congress will sit and hear the voice
of Wall street as interpreted by its
prophet Grover, who will demand
that gold coiu be made the standard
monev of the realm, and urge that
.the Sherman law be repealed. Mean
while the robber tariff wmcn the
democratic party was elected to
throttle, keeps on wearing holes in
the pockets of great common people,
and even the president does not dare
to offer it a black eye. The country
has little to expect from the present
administration beyond a cutting
down of pensions and a probably
successful effort next winter to re
store the tariff on sugar, tea and
coffee. Ex.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
' Iu a lengthy review of the im
peachment trial, the Lincoln Call
lays: The Call doe not believe in po
litical trials for political gain or
for political revenge. It much
mistakes the temper of tho people,
the sentiment of the honest in
telligent people of the state, if they
believe in or endorse trials of this
character. The majority of the
court took exactly this view .of it
and rendered judgment accordingly.
Those who have been most promi
nent in the prosecutiou have been
so for political effect. The Omaha
Bee, that has a Jong established
record of prosecuting and crushing
those whom it could not control,
was in this prosecution because it
I could not itself dictate, to and about
the exonerated state ofhcials. It is
a just and a righteous verdict that
puts the stamp of condemnation up
"cn.this, character of guerilla war

One of the inestimable benefits
that it is suggested may result from
the world's fair is that it may stim

Atlantic seaboard into connection

attention anew to this great project,
long since pronounced feasible bv
eminent engineering authority. The
lakes are already traversed by ves
sels of 4,000 tons burden A broad
and deep waterway to the sea for
ocean vessels would be a boom to
taansportation facilities that would
not likely be relished by the rail
roads, but it would be a great ben
efit to the United States as a whole,'

Enterprising Montanans are con
structing a canal .hi the 'Missouri
valley in that state for irrigating
purposes which, when completed,
will throw open to settlement 260
farms of 160 acres each. The water
is taken from the Missouri river
three miles above Toston. The
ditch will be twenty-seven miles
long, running north along the font
hills, and will cost from $S0,000 to
$100,000. Work was begun on it
in 1892 and it is calculated to finish
it next year in time to utilize it for
the season's crops. The valley
contains 50,000 acres, of which not
fo exceed 10,000 acres are now
arable. The farmer of the future

where it is possible, is the one who

A mare belonging to H. M. Grow,
residing near Adams, has broken
the record in the twin line, and
given birth to twin colt., one a
horse and one a mule. The colt
weighs seventy pounds and is two
feet niue in height. Its twin, he
mule, weighs thirty-two pounds aud
is barely tall enough to reach the
commissary by standing on its tip
toes. It is believed to be the only
case of the kind on record and the
animals will be placed ou.exhibilion.
If any oue doubts the truth of this
story, T. R. Burling, of Firth, will
attest to its accuracy with an arrav
of affidavits from Mr. Grow and all
his neighbors. Diversified indus

There is no doubt that alfalfa is
a profitable crop for fanners over
large sections of the state. Even
in the east end of the state, where
blue grass aud clover thrive,
alfalfu is frenuetitlv obtaining a
footiug that will give it a title to a
permanent place as a special purpose
grass. As the higher aud drver
parts of the state become more,
thickly settled and it becomes im
perative to grow more or less of the
tame grasses, it will be found that
alfalfa tits the case exactly. It will
then act as the balance wheel to the
live stock industry of the state.
The country is spending several
millions each year now more than
