The decisive vote by which the Ne
braska Central bond proposition hits
been endorsed affords gratifying proof
of the determination of our citizens to
remove the embargo which for years htis
been the most serious drawback to the
growth" of Omaha. Up to the day of
election the opponents of the Nebraska
Central were confident of their ability
to defeat the proposition. A two-thirds
vote in the face of organized opposition
equipped with abundant means and
backed by powerful corporations is very
hard to get. But the people of Omaha
wore aroused as they never had boon
before. They roaliznd that they had
everything ut stake In carrying the
bondaand could not bo swerved from
their purpose by appeals and throats.
True , the subsidy voted to the Nebraska
Contrails enormous , but It is a moro
bngatollo in view of the magnitude of
the enterprise und the incalculable ben
efits Omaha will derive from Its execu
tion. 'With the Nebraska Central us an

witness greater business activity in
Omaha than wo have over soon in this
city before.
While THK BHK is not given lo vain

credit of being an important factor in
what it sincerely bollnvos to bo the
greatest victory Omaha has over

A VAUIKTI' Of KSriMATKS.
There is a confusing variety of esti
mates of the probable strength of candi
dates in the Chicago convention. Thcro
will bo 900 delegates in the convention ,
so that 000 will bo necessary to a choice
under the two-thirds rule. Ono Cleve
land cstimuto gives him SSI votes , with
225 opposed und ninety-four douotful ;
another places his vote on the first bal
lot at 500 and Hill's ut 200 , the rest
being divided among the other possible
candidates. Several Hill estimates
have boon issued , the latent of which at
hand gives him 310 votes on the first
ballot and Cleveland -175 , the others
being distributed to Palmer , Carlisle
nnd Boies. An apparently disinterested
estimate , mttdo up at Washington , gives
Cleveland 421 and Hill 183.
The significant fact about these esti
mates is thnt even those made up by the
friends of Mr. Cleveland do not allow
him the necessary two-thirds , while he
is conceded a majority on the first ballot
by the Hill supporters. There is no
doubt that Cleveland will go into the
convention with u support approximat
ing pretty closely to two-thirds , and the
question will very likely arise whether
the principle that his prevailed in
democratic conventions since 1838 , that
a candidate who hns a majority of the
votes is entitled to the nomination ,
shall bo respected. The probability is
that no i-ogard will bo paid to this prin
ciple , and in that case the failure of Mr.
Cleveland to secure the nomination on
the lirat ballot would very likely DO
fatal to his chances , for the reason that
ho will doubtless show his full strength
at the 01 tsot. The latest estimate of
the friends of Mr. Cleveland of his vote
on the first ballot , 600 , cannot be re
garded in the circumstances as warrant
ing confidence in his nomination. As to
Mr. Hill , ho , simply has no chance at all
and probably knows it. Reports of com
binations uro beginning to come in , and
the prospect is that there will bo ono of
the most interesting figh in the his
tory of political conventions.
OUR PACKING INTERESTS.
The importance of the immense puck-
ing interests at South Omaha have loner
boon understood and appreciated by
those who have studied the sources of
this community'b prosperity , but they
nro destined to exert u still greater In
fluence upon the expansion of trudu and
manufacturing 'industries here. The
growth of Omaha must of necessity bo
onormouoly stimulated by the rapid
extension of the vast packing interests.
Following closely upon the announce
ment recently made that Swift & Co. of
South Omaha had commenced work on
improvements in their peeking business
that would increase the capacity of their
establishment fully 23 per cent , comes
the news of still further enlargement by
the sumo enterprising firm. The total
capacity of their works is to bo increased
100 per C3nt , necessitating the employ
ment of from 1,800 to 12,000 mon. Those
additional facilities will enable them to
handle . ' ! ,000 beeves a day.
The people of Omaha , and all whoso
interests uro centered hero , have reason
to rejoice at this prosperous outlook.
ADMISS'OX ,
The Now York Ttmvi is a pretty
thorough partisan newspaper and has not
of lute years missed mmy opprlunitioB
tosuyu word against the candidates
unit policies of the republican party ,
but the rcnomlnatlon of President Harrison
risen has placed it in un uncomfortable
position. Knowing very wall that the
business interests of the count-y und the
thoughtful people generally tire pleased
with the administration of Mr. Harri
son , it cannot very well find fault with
his cindiduoy for another term , but as
u moans of showing that , it hits not
lost faith In Mr. Cleveland It puts the
matter In this way : ' 'One thing is per
fectly plain to every sensible observer ,
and that , is th.it u cinvaas for the presi
dency with Il'irrison and Clovoliind as
candidates would reduce the disturb-
unco to business to the lowest possible
amount , und would , in fuot , pruotlo.illy
prevent any Borlous disturbance what-
over. "
The Blgnllicanco of this will bo appre
ciated by all who know how urdontly
the limes udmlroa Mr. Cleveland' . For
borne years that admiration has been
almost beyond oxprosnion. It has
amounted lo u sort of idolatry , utfd the
name of the ox-prcsidont has boon pub
forward on all occasions us ono to bespoken
spoken reverently. But now this grout
prophet of reform is named side by aide
with Prujldont Harrtaon , and the ro-
nitirkuhlo uJmission ia uvulo that the
canvass of the republican candidate will
not disturb business any moro than that
of Mr. Cleveland would.
But this extraordinary admission has
u meaning that extends beyond the per
sonality of the two men , The Times Is
u free trade pjtpo. % if there is ono any
where. President Hnrrison stands for
protection. Are wo to understand thnt
thU great organ of Clovol.mil. un d free
trade regards the protective policy as
ono that will be viewed with com *
placoncy by the business interests of the
country ? It ao , there is no occasion for
argument on this subject. It may bo
assumed that the republican policy suits
nil who uro not opposed to it or dis
turbed by it. In other words , it may
bu taken for granted that the country is
plotsed with the pro.sldont's adminis
tration , nnd not nt till disposed to bo
ularmod by the prospect of his ro-
oloction.
OMAHA AKD 1HK STATfi AT
One of the speakers ut the banquet
given to the Nebraska Business Mon'a
association remarked upon the growth
of friendly feeling toward Omahti in
other parla'of the state. There wnq u
tlmo , ho said , when the retail merchants
In portions of Nebraska would not buy
of Omaha munufttcturors and jobbers ,
but the feeling of hostility hud largely
dicd.out and now the people of the state
generally are proud of Us metropolis
and glitd of the progress and prosperity
of Omaha. This is the sentiment that
ought to generally prevail , because the
bciiofita to nncruo from it nro mutual.
It is the sentiment which the business
men of this city liavo boon striving to
cultivate , und it Is gratifying to It now
that they Hnvo boon lurgoly successful.
Omaha appreciates its dependence xipo'n
the growth and prosperity of its sister
cities und of the whole stuto und desires
to foster the closest business relations
with every part of the state All citi
zens of Nebraska should sco the
mutuality of interests involved in build
ing up the nibtropolis of the state and
strengthening its financial and commer
cial power. It is manifestly wiser to do
this than to contribute to the upbuilding
of commercial centers outside of the
to which could exert no influence in
behalf of Nebraska interests and would
drtiwf pom ruthm1 than increase our pros-
purity. Properly considered , there can
bu no rivalry between Omaha and any
Nebraska city , and whatever there maybe
bo in the way of emulation should bo
entirely friendly. The people of this
cjty heartily welcome evidences of
giowth and prosperity throughout the
state in nil departments of business.
They have no fooling of jealousy or envy
toward any other community. What
ever makes for the advancement of Ne
braska affords them gratification. This
feeling , it is most pleasing to know , is
being quite generally reciprocated by
the state ut largo , and tharo is every
assurance that in a short time there will
bo no trace nnywhero of hostility to the
commercial interests of Omaha , which
are identical with those of the entire
state and the growth of which must in
evitably contribute to the general wel
fare.
THK UUl'i : 01 ? DAJIK UOnSKS.
The air is full of rumo-s of deals .and
concessions and compromises among the
men who figure most prominently in
connection with Iho democratic nomina
tion for president , but the only thing
that booms to bo clear is that Mr. Clove-
land's supporters in the convention will
bo far stronger numerically than those
of any other candidate. Within the
past few days the friends of the tninor
candidates and dark horses have begun
to hope for a turn of affairs that will
leave an opening for their favorites , but
this hope is based upon nothing but , the
prospect that the majority may yield to
the demands ot the minority nnd throw
the ox-prosidont overboard. In that
event there would bo a rush of minor
candidates for the prlzo und the man
hnvitur the strongest following among
those not identified in any way with
either Cleveland or Hill would undoubt
edly bo chosen. Among the now can
didates is Voorhoos. of Indiana , whoso
friends have just sot on foot a boom that
is attracting u great deal of attention in
his own state. They say that lie can
save Indiana if ho is nominated , and
that ho could got the whole vote of his
party In Now York. Tlio friends of
Gorman are not idle moanwhllo , und
Palmer , though a pronouncoJ Cleve
land man , and therefore not available us
u compromise candidate , is boinjj urged
strongly by his bickers. Near the bottom
tom of the list ia Boies of Iowa , who will
have u very small number of demonstra
tive and hard-working dologatos.
Ono of the influences that will bo felt
in Chicago is that of the Now York
mugwumps , und the alternative which
they offer will puzzle the delegates.
The Eceniny Post , which is a fair 'repre
sentative of the mugwump sentiment ,
warns the democrats that they cannot
have the floating or Independent vote
unless they nominate Cleveland. "If
they wlsh , to drive this balance of power
over to the republicans , " it adds , "they
can find no moro ofl'ootlvo way to do so
than by'rojoctlng the man who lifted
the party outof the Slough of Despond , "
and moro to the sumo purpose. Hero la
the devil nnd the deep aou again. The
independents will boat the ticket if
Cleveland ia not on it , and Tammany
will defeat it if ho ia. Those are the
conditions that grvo hope to the minor
candidates and the dark horses with
booms yet unborn. Ills not surprising
that they uro going right on with their
won : rogardlods of the big Cleveland
majority already assured.
ALIIION W. Toimanjfs : views of an
impending negro uprising nro not likely
to alarm the country. The fact ia ,
while Mr. Tourgoo is u man of intolll-
goncoand knowledge of southern affairs ,
his views are those of un extremist. The

Tin : Omnhn Bolt Line railroad has
iiguln boon returned to the Stuto Board
of Equalization us part of tlio Missouri
I'aolllc railroad for assessment nnd tax
ation nt mllotigo rates. This ia in di
rect violation of the law which requires
railroads that huvo their terminals
within the limits of ono county to bo
assessed the sumo us any other real und
porsouul property for local taxation by
the precinct nsSSMirs. The question Is
whether the city and county authorities
nro going to submit to this imposture.
Th6 Bolt Line VJa ( > l is computed to bo
worth from 37,000,000 , to $8,000,001) ) . At
one-tenth of its uctu.il vutuo it should
pay city nnd county tttxos on nt loaat
$800,000. At the / nlloago ruto It is ap
praised nt $0lC ! und thnt portion

$76,000 , or nt least ? 00,000 less than It
Bliould bo assessed ut Jor city purposes.
SOMK weeks ugo the council , acting

but nn yet nothing has Moon dono.

there scorns to'bo no prospect thnt. any

It should not bo neglected longer , for
there is clangor to publlo health in

of diphtheria cases huvo boon
reported during the past few days , und

of the pools of stagnant wutor now

\Vnll streetrovlow snysi The change of
sentiment in speculation which followed the
npponranco ot the povcrntnont crop report
last Krldnv has been ns rnnricod ns it was
sudden. Hoforo that the market showed
every disposition to drift into n slow liquida
tion on the gloomy proipocts for the crops
nnd for the railroad earnings , which nro de
pendent on thonii The announcement that a
fair ylold of grain , If not ono up to the host
years prior to 1SU1 , wns In sight , caused nn
itnmodlato titampeilo In the ranks of the pro-
fosMdnals who had boon endeavoring tor
weeks back to depress prices.
The best support to the market cntno from
Chicago nnd tno wc&t , tbo very quarter
whence the recent bearish views on the situ
ation had boon distributed , tbo shnrp decline
In wheat emphasizing the uhaugo of fooling
In regard to railroad properties. Ono noroi-
snry ingrodlont was , howovcr. lacking , for n
Koiiulno bull market. The readiness ot the
ncllvo traders lo work on the bull Mdo did
not supply buyers to Continue the ndvunco
started ou the covering of shorts. The boor
Interest wtn largo enouph to servo ns n tem
porary purchasing power , but when It wns
exhausted neither Kuropo uor the public
scorned to bo ready to continue the work of
elevating prices. London was nn Inconsequential
quential factor , selling llttlo hero , hut
buying very sparingly. Commission houses
showed moro activity thnn has boon soon for
some weeks , but the support from that source
was too scattering and timid to make any
Impression.
< V rise in the exchange and gold shipments ,
which on Friday assumed larger proportions ,
making n total outllovv of $7,10J,000 for the
week , with genornl anticipations of Its con
tinuance , also had so.no effect , nnd realizing
sales started n decline to which renewed
boar nttdcks gave n further Impetus. P rl-
day's market was accordingly irregular nnd
depressed , though n fairly strong undertone ,
nnd especially in the granger stocks , chocked
any decided Impression on prices.
The western grain-road stocks were the

the members of the clgarmakors union of
South Omaha claim to have discovered that

They at once apprised Gllllspio of the fact ,
and In plain languugo ho told them that ho
knew hU own business. A few dnys later
the president of the union wrote Glllisplo a
letter , in which ho was informed that "if ho
continued to use the union Inbol ou tenement

the district court , the Judge holding thnt
laws of the state of Nebraska protected the
union in its label , which Was a triulo mark.
The case was at once appealed to the dis
trict court , where Gllllsplo claimed that
the prosocutlon was malicious and was in
stituted because ho would not buy his cigars
