IT LOOKS after all as if Cleveland will
gel the nomination. There nro two
plncca in which Grovcr is a big initn.
Ono is In a democratic convention and
tlio other is on the liny soiiles.
Till ! regular qundrcnninl election is
being held in England to determinet'hat
nation's choice for president oi the
United Stntes ; and as usual the demo
crats are sweeping the country.
Tun "Open Sesame" to democratic
conventions by ox-republicans is the dis
play of the honors unworthily bestowed
by the republican party. Tlicso honors
are Mio only orntunonts to their menda
cious careers.
ClIAIKMAN' CljAUKSON. who WHS at
the point of death two weeks ngo , has
fully recovered ami is ready now to take
charge of tin wrecking1 train if repub
licans are wllliiiir to take tlio risk of
uwiipping horses while crossintr the
stream.
WANTHD A presidential candidate
who has cabinet portfolios to trade for
influence can loiirn something to his ad-
vnntago by applying to J. S. Clarkson ,
chairman national republican committee -
too , late from Hot Springs and fully
convalescent.
TIIK reason the democrats love Cleveland -
land ao is not because ho I.OSOH as a saint
or reformer , nor because of any special
mental power ho displays. It la simply
because ho was the llrst finaii in thirty
years to "got there. " and in spite of his
subsequent defeat they are afraid to
break tlio charm by throwing away their
mascot.
TIIK Conoinaugh lias arrived and dis-
rhnrgcd its precious freight to the
starving and dying in Russia. In the
equipment of that great ship , Nebraska
played an important part and it is ono of
tlio great wonders of the world how this
tftato , only a few years ngo so weak and
poor , has now boon able and willing to
give out of its abundance and to scatter
tiioir rich yields to starving subjects of
the Russian czar.
KS have nothing to do with
the democratic catr.pa'gn ' this year.
Tariff reform , so fur ai democrats nro
concerned , perished with Cleveland.
Note how the congressional majority
has dropped any tariIT policy and is re
lying on scattering shots to accomplish
a show of attack upon the great Me-
Kinloy law. It Is the old game of at
tempting to docolve the pooplo. The
democracy and Camr's wife have no
resemblnnco in regard to virtue.
TUB ordinance ngainst throwing re-
fitrio in paved alloys should bo vigor
ously enforced. Omaha is very un
cleanly in this respect , due lo the
leniency or indllTorunce of the health
olllclals , nnd it is time the law wore
rigidly executed , without four or favor.
Thuro is ample authority in the ordin
ance , nnd dereliction in a matter of so
much importance to tlio Health of tlio
oily is unpardonable. Tlio Board of
Health has Instructed the health olllcor
to enforce the law , nnd it is to bo hoped
there will bo no further cnuao of com
plaint for n full nro to do so.
SKNATOU MAN'maiso.v has promised
to do nil he can to secure an extension
of the time in which the Nebraska Cen
tral bridge limy bo completed , but he is
not hopeful of receiving any assistance
from the representatives of Nebraska in
the other branch of congress. As this
is n purely practical innttor , ouUldo of
politics , it is reasonably hoped that the
lonator will lind no dittlculty in getting
tlio help of tile Nebraska delegation in
the house , Tlio projected enterprise
will bo of great bonejlt to the material
intarajts'of Omaha nnd of tlio state , and
wo know of no valid reason why the re
quest for nn extension of time should
be opposed by any Nebraska represent-
utlv *

It npprarfl that President Harrison
hns used fl.vrollont judgment in the stops
taken to bring about nn International
conference regarding silver. Ho pro
ceeded In the mrxltor in a thoroughly
practical way. Several gentlemen of
mentis nnd ability , known to bo friendly
to illvor. were commissioned to Bound
the footings of public men abroad upon
a movement looking toward the rehabili
tation of silver , in which this country
should take the Initiative. Tlicso men
acted with full authority but without
publicity , nnd the service they rendered
cost the government nothing.
The results of the Enquiries of these
gentloiiK-n satlsllod the president that
the time was rlpo for n serious attempt
to secure an international ngrooinont
for tlio monetary use of both motals.
Tlio osscnlinl thing was to bo assured of
the co-oporatlon of the British govern
ment , and this was accomplished , it is
said , by Secretary Foster on the oc
casion of his visit to England. That
done the invitations for the conference
quickly foliowoil , and these have been
accepted by Knsrlaiul , Franco , Austria
and It'ily. undoubtedly will bo by Ger
many , and It is expected that other
countries will have able financiers and
statesmen present in the conference to
canvass thu situation and discuss the
engrossing problem. In nil this Iho
president , who is as strongly In favor
of bimetallism under safe conditions as
any tniin in the country , has proceeded
quietly and discreetly , taking no stop
that ho was not entirely sure of. Whllo
the succcsj of the president In arr.ing-
ing for nn international silver confer
ence may bo somewhat perplexing to
the free silver republicans who tire op
posed to him , on the pretext of his hos
tility to free coinage , it is believed to
bo very satisfactory to the moderate
silver inon , as it certainly must DO to
everybody wlo : desires to see the silver
roblem settled upon an international
jasis.
Of course no ono can foresee the ro-
ult of the conference. Itmiy fail , as
iroccdin- . ' conferences have donj , to of-
'eit ! nnthing toward the solution of the
inestion it will moot to discuss , but
here are reasons for expecting that this
ivill not be the cnsu , and that at least
n advance will bo made in the dcsirod
.llrectlon. That it bears conclusive
Bvideuco of the interest of the adminis-
ration in the cause of sliver it is re
timed ro fair-minded man will question ,
n no otlior way could President llar-
i'ison have so fully and strongly ans
wered the charge of the extreme silver
men that ho is unfriendly to silver , and
lis action has given him , jo far 113 the
reo silver question is' concerned , com-
) lolo mastery of the situation. In the
circumstances no sensible person could
ustify any new silver legislation.
It will bo interesting in this oonncc-
iion to rein irk that notwithstanding the
infavorablo attitude of the London
) i-esi toward the proposed conference ,
hero is ov'doiico of a very strong senti-
nent in England in favor of bimetallism.
This is shown by the largo deputation
that waited on Lo d Salisbury last week ,
. opresunting the bimolallist league , by
the expressions of chambers of com-
iioreo and trade unions , and by the ut
terances of the provincial p.'ess. The
lonuind of all these inlluonocH is that
ho British government shall go into
the international conference with full
; lotormination to make a settlement of
the question.

And now comes that eminent financier
nnd statesman , Ed ,1. Hull , member of
the late Nebraska legislature , and do-
Ivors himself of an opinion on the in
trinsic worthlessness of gold and silver.
If silver and gold were both demone
tized by the united world at the same
time , " says this champion liatist , "and
no longer used as money liy any nation ,
both commodities would depreciate in
tlio market until they would not be
worth 2o cents a pound. "
A little learning is a dangerous thing ,
but fools will venture where angels , fear
to tread. Twenty-live cents a pound for
.jold indeed I Why nannot wo buy diamonds
mends , rubies or pearls for 25 cents a
| ) ound ? They never have been coined
into money or had their value llxod by
imy government stamp. Wny does
platinum , the heaviest of known metals ,
which never lias been fi'shioncd into
coin or stamped as money , well for
eight times its weight in silver ? Why
cannot we buy aluminium , the lightest
of metals , for 2-3 cents a pound'/ Will
the asinine reformer who talks BO
glibly on li nance bo good enough to explain -
plain why any of the precious metals
iiavo any greater value in the markets
of the world J than pig iron or loud'/ /
Why have gold and silver boon valued
above all other mntals by the ancients ,
who knew nothing about coinage , nnd
had no laws regulating the payment of
debt'/

The Kansas City Jourmil , with a dis
play of envy as malignant as its state
ments are untrue , is striving to poison
the mindd of tlio people who road its
utterances in regard lo the reception
which the alliance convention will re
ceive from this city. In a recent Issue
it says :
Tno alliance party people are Indignant ,
They bestowed upon OinuUa a sicnnl honor
and some of Onmhu's citizens do not appreciate -
ciato lu When it was docldod lo bold the
third party national con vontlon atNoOraslca's
metropolis , It was ox pec ted that tlio resi
dents of that plaoa would In only too glad to
oontrlouto to the onturUlnmonl of tha dulo-
gains. Hut it noamt that they nro not.
Tlioio best able to suoioribo , the bankers
und railroad oniclals , lUtly rjfmo to trlvo so
much as a red cent. Tnoy even uot ai
though they didn't euro whothnr the oonvon-
cam D to Omaha or not , or whither it was
uold anyvvhorc. This conduct is most extra
ordinary. The third nnrty spormlly interests
Itself in the subjout of ban us and railroads ,
and yet these poopla turn It the cold shoul
der , Bfouiinply without compunction. * *
* * The bank nnd railway olMclaU of
that town are so deeply saturated with
plutozr.icy that they won't oven contribute
to the success ot a movement wbloh alms at
tholr own downfall.
All of which , is simply n downright
llo. Thu amount asked by the alliance
committee was $10,000 and that amount
has been almost entirely raised and the
remainder of it has been guaranteed by
the citizens' committee. By the time
the convention assemble * the total I
amount will have boon raised and more ,
ifnooosgnry. There hns bcen BO much
of thoao shortsighted and venomous at-
taoUa nt Omnhtv that ono is almost
tempted to allow them to pnas unno
ticed. The only opinions of ntiy sort
for which Omaha cares nre tho.io of tlio
strangers whom she has onlortalnod nnd
in whoso good judgment she is ready to
intrust full conlldonci. The others ,
who stand away off and hiss , are mom-
hers of the family whoso chlof mission It
is to hiss.
.1 so ; ; , THAT is
An eastern farmer passing through
tlio Inundated bottom lands of the west
nt this tlmo would undoubtedly bo
moved to expressions of pity for Iho
tillers of the soil whoso broad ncro3
have been so plontcously watered dur
ing the past two weeks. In the light of
his own experience ns ho looked out
over the Hooded farms ho would see only
aunt specters of starvation stalking
nkib deep in rainwater , nnd visions of
omitlcss hordes of deputy sheriffs dis-
lossesslng the ruined agriculturists of
heir homos.
This would bo a perfectly natural
. 'low for tin eastern man unacquainted
vith the characteristics of the western
ountry , for ho would judge of the
tlTocta of such tin apparent excess of
ivulor by what ho hail seen in a region
ivhoro the farmers will not stand drown-
ng. But the farmers of Nebraska , Iowa
ntl the rest of the wntcr-sonkoil west
tnow that tholr drenched acres have an
ixtrnorditmry capacity for absorbing
'iilnwator , nnd that they will como up
itillinL' after tholr bath. Today ono
nay see a Hooded bottom farm on which
here is scarcely an island largo enough
o afford pasture for a dozen head of
altlo ; tomorrow if lie pis-3 : that way
vgain ho may see a cheerful and con-
.eiitcd farmer following tho'plow , and
ho rich , tender mold that ho turns will
inrdly look too moist for planting.
S'aluro takes pretty good care of JIT
ardon-spots , upon the wliolo , and it is
happy provision of hers that brings
; orn planting so close upon the heels of
lavigation.
ilKUK are the best possible reasons
ivhy Omaha should control the splendid
oil fields of Wyoming , which will some
lay bo a source of immense wealth. All
ho conditions are favorable to this city
is the objective point for pipe lines and
ho most advantageous location for ro-
llnerics , as Mr. W. W. Lwo shows in a
communication to TIIK Bcu. : But in
order to make sum of the control Omaha
nust move in the matter without un-
iccessary delay , bee ittso do rich an op
portunity for fortune makir.g will not
eng bo neglected by capitalists else
where who are on the alert for p"omis-
ng investments. Tlio practicability of
uaking this city a great oil center being
granted , it would seem that ttioro ought.
: o bo little dilliculty in enlisting all the
, i iil capital necessary to develop the
Wyoming oil fields and connect thorn by
) ipo lines with Omaha. The matter is
certainly worthy of the attention of our
iractieal capitalists who have the money
.o embark in such an enterprise.
TIIK president lias shown good judg
ment in selecting Justice llarlan of the
supreme court and Senator Morgan ot
Alabama to represent the United States
in the Boring seaarbitration. . Both
: ire eminent authorities on interna
tional law , and they will make the
strongest possible presentation of the
case on behalf of this country. The
hief counsel for the United States will
be Hon. E. J. Pi < olps , ex-minister to
England. THUS two democrats nro
given prominent positions in connection
with the arbitration , a proof of tlio d's- '
position of the president to deal fairly
with the parly in political opposition
to him when a matter of national con
cern is to bo considered. The court of
arbitration will consist of seven mem
bers , of which the British government
is yet to appoint two , tbo otlior three to
bo named by the king of Sweden , the
ng of Italy and the president of
Franco. It will bo a notable body.
TUB report of the building inspector
of South Omaha for tlio past four
months of the year shows a Btoady and
rapid progress in Iho building enter
prises of tlio magic city. Tlio record
for April shows that eighty-six permits
were issued , the aggregate cost of now
buildings and additions , nearly all for
residence purposes , being $105,175. Pol
itic four months the permits repre
sented nn expenditure of $200,000. There
is absuranco of an active summer for the
building trades in the vigorous little
city , which is moving forward to the
euro attainment of the second place in
tlio United States as a meat-packing
center.
TIIK largest receipts in the history of
the South Omaha stock yards were
these of yesterday. The number of
cars received reached 441 , being
the largest number on any ainglo
day since July 15 , 1891 , on which
duto HOI ) cars were received.
The .estimated receipts of hogs
yesterday were 11,000 and of cattle 5,000.
Tills breaking of the record comes
earlier than was anticipated , nnd it is
expected that there will bo many more
big days at the stock yards during the
next throe months. Omaha is rapidly
malting her way toward second pluco in
the stock business.
Tnu residents of the northern part of
the city nro justified in protesting
against the neglect of that section In the
matter of public improvements. They
assert that they have never received
fair consideration , and this is doubtless
very largely true. At any rnto there is
demand for a grout deal of work in that
portion of the city and It should receive
ntoro attutition during the present son-
son than has boon glvon it for several
years. A stranger visiting that end o
the city would form a poor opinion ol
the enterprise and public spirit of out
people , _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Minneapolis Times : Among many thtnu's.
pertinent nnd otherwise , discussed in the
Methodist conference , Is the World's fair
In Chicago , The conference yesterday ngrood
that the exposition wixs n meritorious undor-
takliur , that the church rejoiced lu the prov-
pect of Its success , but declared it should b,3 ,
closed on Sunday because to do otborxvlso
woula bo flying In the face of providence.
* * * Suppose wo fompromlso this matter
of Sunday closing and let thu Methodists nnd
ether Saubatarians stay nt homo on Sun
day If they will and let these who nayo no
such scruples attend. It Is not a matter of
compulsion any way.
Now York Commercial : Wo note in the
discussion in this Omaha conference certain
signs that thu spirit of old Adam has to bo
fought by the MothodUts ns well ns by other
sects of ChrUtlans. Tuo old-tluio Woslovnns
would Uountloss bo shocked to hear that
there has arisen among their decondants "a
disinclination in certain quarters to kneel nt
prayers , many electing to keep their seats. "
And almost incredible would it have ap-
paurcd to them that n time would ever como
when a resolution , would have to bo offered
by Methodists making H "obligatory for ull
members , from tlib > wealthiest to the hum
blest , to Itnoel in'prayer. ' "
Now York Tribune : Kov. Dr. Buckley ,
who Is well Known ns a vigorous writer
und preacher , Is probably the keenest debater -
bator in the Methodist general contoronoo
noxv In session at Omaha. A day or two aeo
ho distinguished himself by coining two now
words apropos of existing circumstances m
the conference"episcopophobia" und "cpls-
copomania. " They served his purpose ad-
mirnbly , whether impromptu or deliberate ) .

Huekloy should "atj once take , thorn out of

denouncing the Chinese exclusion nut as a

Uhlnoso are us desirable Immigrants as
"othor foreigners , notably the Irish , " was

Denver News : A resolution was intro
duced In the Mothodlst general conference
yesterday calling upon the church to doflno
its position in the struggle between capital
aud labor in thU country , and charging a
want of sympathy with tbo toiling masses.
* * * The unuuo deference paid to money
and Its possessors is peculiar to no oration of
the Christian church but is common to ull of
them , and the foot is undoubtedly nn im
portant factor in causing the disintegration
of church influence among the massqs of the
people of Christendom. That deference Is
as marked in tbo church as it Is in either
business or social life. Moro than that , the
church is notoriously utilized , as may bo
conspicuously seen In nil centers of popula
tion , to cloak and give credit to rich rascals
and scheming transactions which nro only
too often worse than questionable. The
parson must bo ootusu who cannot see this
verified almost nny day and who is
unable to clto cases in which ono or two
wealthy men of a congregation hold its pas
tor In the palm of their hands.
