tiKUHASKA AND THE SU'OAlt TIIUST.
The prospect for n moro oxtonnlvo
cultivation of the sugar boot In Ne
braska Is good. The development of
this young Industry In thlo state has
boon very rapid during the past few
years nnd has attracted wide attention.
Two largo factories are turning out
sugar of the highest quality from the
bocts grown upon Nebraska soil , nnd the
possibilities of sugar making being lim
ited only by the possibilities of beet
growing , it is evident that the business
may bo extended indefinitely in a ru-
glen so admirably suited to it as Ne
braska Is admitted to be. It has boon
shown by reports from the Agricultural
department that among the samples of
boots received from various states the
highest coefficient of purity was found
in those from Nebraska. The proportion
tion ot sugar In the beets grown in this
state Is It per cent greater than In these
of Germany , and the natural produc
tiveness of our soil Is such that it gives
the boot groworn hero a great advantage
in the competition with these of the old
world , who are obliged to report to ar
tificial fertilizers to an extent which
offsets the dllToronco in the cost of labor.
The sugar factories of Nebraska are
turning the products of her boot ( Jolda
into roflnod sugar , and doing the work
well. This Is as It should bo , and the
manufacturing facilities should bo ex
tended with the growth of the boot
growing industry , as it doubtless will bo.
Touching upon this phase of the subject ,
the Now York Comwrchil Dutlctin has
the following :
In commenting upon the question , now
bolng agitated by these who huvo taken up
the culture ot sugar boots in Nebraska ,
whotbor they ougbttooroctratinorics as wall
as fnatorlos'for the production of raw sugar ,
or the latter only , VVlllott & Gray say , In
their "Statistical : " "Wo do not like to BOO
the opportunity for prolltablo ooot root agrl-
oulturo In nearly every state In the union
lost to our farmers by tbo present Undirected
efforts. Abandon the effort to build up the
industry oy ocot root sugar refining anil
limit It to boot root sugar agriculture , and It
must succeed , "
If the growers of boot roots and the manu
facturers of raw boot root suear In Nebraska
will ngreo not to oroot refineries , Wlllott &
Gray declare that the sugar trust "will con
tract for It" ( raxv boot root susar ) "now at
tbo market v&luo of similar sugar at the time
of delivery In 1893 , and will commence work
ing their larsa rollnary In St. Louis just as
soon ns a six months' supply can bo givan
thorn from any or all of the boot root produc
ing states. "
The journal quoted labors under a
slight misapprehension upon ono point.
It UHSumos that the idea of erecting ro-
flnorios in Nebraska haa not yet been
put into actual practice , whereas the
truth is thit : all the boots grown in this
state arc made into rafined sugar hare.
Elsewhere in the sixmo editorial the
Commcrci'aZ fiullelin says :
Wo do not bollove that the beet root
growers and raw sugar manufacturers of
Nebraska will accept this ad vino. In fact ,
there is no greater monaco to the success of
beet root sugar culture in the United States
than the sugar trust Unless the raw sugar
manufacturers shall bo able to put their
sugar upon tbo market ready for consump
tion they will bo at tbo mercy of the sugar
trust. Thcro Is now but ouo buyer of raw
sugar in the United States , and the farmers
of Nebraska hava but to observe the history
of the Standard OU trust to coo what their
future will bo if forced to sell their sugar to
the sugar trust only.
This is very good counsel from an able
source. Tbo sugar trust will eagerly
covet the raw product of Nebraska , and
if the present rate of increase in beet
culture hero is maintained it will soon
bo a product worth reaching for. But
there are no signs of any tendency on
the part of the Nebraska farmers to play
into the hands of the sugar trust.
There is no reason why they should do
so. As matters now stand they have
nothing to gain by seeking to place the
refilling business entirely In the hands
of this giant monopoly , There Is plenty
of money and enterprise < in this state to
provide as many sugar refineries as the
growth of the beet producing industry
may demand , and the local pride of our
producers will load them to encourage
the homo manufucturor rather than to
promote any interest of such an octopus
as the augar trust. The time may not
bo far distant when the sugar refineries
of this stiito will bo among Its greatest
industries. Nebraska for Nebraskans ,
and may the sugar business grow !

Two homeseoking excursions will
come to Nebraska this year , ono on
August 30 and the other on September1
27. It is a common practice in ovecy
now and fresh settlement to present
highly colored inducements to eastern
people who are seeking to bettor their
condition , and notunfrequontly a severe
penalty Is paid for excessive booming
when the deceived homesookor pulls up
his utitKos and moves away , leaving
these who have expected to become sud
denly rich by inflated real estate values
to mourn and find fault with the hard
deoroas of fata.
Nebraska passed beyond the experi
mental period many years ago. Among
the states west of the Mississippi it ranks
as an old common wealth. It is not a
field that invites the adventurer. It
otTers no inducement to the devotees of
happy chance. There is no such thing
as gambling upon the future of this stato.
With this jilaln Blutomunt as an
introduction , THK UKH vantuios to
suggest thut the thousands of cltl-
citlzuns of Nebraska who have friends
In the oust cannot butter show their In
terest in them than by asking them to
join one of these homcaooklng oxcur-
oions and tuke a look at this state , in-
vobllgating ita vast resources and esti
mating its unlimited possibilities. It is
a curious fact that millions of eastern
people whose nmteriul condition could
hardly bo worse than it is nro wholly Ig-
norantof the opportunities hero olTored
them , if they have heard of these op
portunities they have imagined that
some one. was trying to practice upon
their urcdu.ity. '
Thorn Is u vast amount of room , n No-
bninUu. Tiiuro Is ample space for the
farmer , the tradesman and the manu
facturer. It la not necessary that thu
homesoekor should bo n moro tiller of
the boil. With ouch yoar'a development
of tbo rich resources of the state a wider
field la opened for every form ot human
activity.
Lot the cltlzena of Nebraska Invite
their eastern ( Honda to join one of those
/ *
homcBoeking excursions nnd pay them
a visit. In any ovunt it can do no
harm , and perhaps it may effect a great
improvement In the condition ot Bomo
who nro now struggling for existence in
the thickly populated oast. . Visitors are
always welcomed hero.
T1JK SKI } ' SKCttRTAtlV Uf STATK.
General John \V. Foster was yester
day appointed secretary of state by
President Harrison and the nppolnt-
mont was promptly confirmed by the
sunnto. General Foster's diplomatic
experience fits him for the position. Ho
luis boon minister to Russia , Moxlco nnd
Spain and had .a great deal to do with
nutrotintlng the reciprocity arrangement
with the lattoi' country. Ho has also
represented the State department in the
negotiation of other reciprocity agree
ments , and no ono has a moro thorough
knowledge of that policy. Ho has been
under the present administration the
diplomatic attorney of the State department -
mont , und In that relation has proved
himself a most nblo and useful olllcial.
General Foster is said to bo entirely fa
miliar with every phase of the Boring
sea controversy , and as the arbitration
is near nt hand his counsel will bo Im
portant and valuable. Besides his ox-
tonslvo experience In diplomatic affairs ,
the now secretary of state is a lawyer of
superior attainments. Ho enjoys the
full confidence ot the president and la in
complete harmony with hla views on all
the subjects with which the State de
partment has at present to deal. He is
to bo credited to Indiana , although for
a number of years a roaldont of the Dis
trict of Columbia.
The State department under the pres
ent administration has received a larger
share of the attention of the president
than has boon usual. During the pro
longed illness of Mr. Blalno the affairs
of the department wore closely looked
after by President Harrison , and it is a
well known fact that a great deal of the
correspondence in the Boring sea matter
ter- and the Chilian controversy eman
ated directly from the president. It is
altogether probable that the prcsidant
will continue to devote a great deal of
attention to the department and to per
sonally direct its utterances upon all
matters already under consideration or
which may hereafter arise. Himself an
able lawyerwell versed in international
law and evidently having a taste for
diplomatic discussion , President Harri-
risen will undoubtedly continue to glvo
close attention to our international re
lations and to glvo direction to the for
eign policy of the government so far aa
ho has authority.
In view of the very successful manage
ment of international affairs , largely
due to the attention and interest of the
president , the country is warranted in
expecting that the excellent record al
ready in ado will bo maintained , regardless -
loss of who is at the head of the Depart-
montof State , and this without disparag
ing in the slightest degree the experi
enced and nblo diplomatist who now oc
cupies that position. General Foster is in
every way qualified for the important
duties of secretary of stato. Indeed , there
is probably no man in the country bettor
equipped for them , and unquestionably
he will fully maintain the high standard
of the loading cabinet ofllco.
STBVBKSOK HAS Alf ISSUE.
The democratic candidate for vice
president , Adlal E. Stevenson , has an
issue which 'ho considers to bo more
momentous than all others. It is the
so-called force bill , the measure intro
duced in the Fifty-first congress provid
ing for free und fair federal elections in
every state of the union.
Mr. Stevenson has boon interviewed by
a representative of the New York jSuii ,
to whom ho said that while the tariff
issue is more important than the faUvor
issue , moro Important than both is the
' and force . "
'despicable dangerous .bill.
This , in the opinion of the gentleman
whoso political distinction rests upon the
fact that ho put some 50,001) ) democrats
in fourth class postolllcos in the place of
republicans , is the main issue , and ho
remai ked that "it is so far-reaching in
Its consequences that its importance
cannot bo over-estimated to the people
of the southern states and to the people
pleof the country. " Ho declared
that sucli legislation wouiu destroy the
peace , prosperity ana happiness of the
people of the south , and assorted as a
fact of personal knowledge that the
negroes in the southern statea are us
well treated as the whites on election
day , und have little if any cause to
complain.
The reason for the professed fear on
the part of the democratic candidate for
vice president and some others of hU
party that in the event ot republican
success there might bo legislation ta so-
euro every where a free ballot and an
honest count Is found in the plank of
the republican platform which domanda
"that every citizen of the United States
shall bo allowed to cast ono free and un
restricted ballot in all public elections ,
and that such ballot shall be counted
and returned as cast , " and which de
clares thut "the free and honest popular
ballot , the just and equal representation
of all the people , as well as their just and
equal protection under the laws , are the
foundation of our republican institu
tions. ' ! la there anything alarming in
this ?
IB there anything Jn the demand and
the declaration that any patriotic citi
zen , honestly desiring that every ether
citizen , while or black , shall bu aecuro
in the enjoyment of the most essential
und valuable right of cltl/onshtp , can
not cnuorauV And if it bo a fact , us all
well-informed men know it to bo , thut
1,000,000 of cltlzeim are not permitted to
freely oxorcUo this right , guaranteed
by the constitution ot the country , is it
not the duty of the political party which
has always Insisted upon a , free and
honodt ballot to take notice of the fact
unit to demand thut the wrong 1 > Q
remedied ? The republican party would
bo faithless to it * character and ita tra
il it lout ) if it were to ignore the fact of a
largo body of citizens bolng deprived of
their sovereign right of suffrage at
every federal election , and the party
will forfeit Us claim to the confidence
ami support of patriotic and fttir-mlnded
citizens whenever it shall cease to have
the courage to denounce und protest
'
against an injustice which mpnaeos 're
publican institutions nnd is n reproach
to the nation.
Mr. Stevenson will hardly succeed ,
even with the valuable a latanco of the
Now York SuitTii making itio so-called
force bill a lending Issue in the cam
paign. The democratic party tfill not
bn allowed toovadntho Nsuo U husmnda
against the system of American protec
tion and In favor of free Undo , or lo
dodge the fact that a very largo ma
jority of the party are willing to debase
I ho currency by opening the mlnta of
the country to the free and unlimited
coinage of silver. No subterfuge will
bo permitted to Interfere wjth the full
discussion of these Issues , and it matters -
tors not which of thorn Is regarded ua
the moro Important. The force bill may
do service for the purpojo of keeping
the south solid , but it cannot ho made to
have any terror for the people of the
north ,
The farmers , the business men and
the groat-army of labor , who are deeply
concerned in the growth of American
industries , the extension of American
commerce , and the maintenance of a
sound and stable currency , will not
have their attention dr.vwn away from
the questions In which thuao conditions
of national nr.igrosa and prosperity are
Inv.olvod. But it is interesting to
know that the democratic candidate
for vice president , who In the event ot
his election might roach the highest
office In the republic , boltovos that it Is
the first and greatest du.y of his party
to antagonize the demand for p. froo. and
honest ballot in every Bcotlon ot the
country.
WHIN Governor McKInley said in his
Now York speech that tha bilUon-uollur
congress , which the democrats say BO
much about , was really a two billion-
dollar congress , ho opened the oyoa of
his audionco. It was a two billion-dol
lar congress , ho said , because under the
operation of the laws which It passed
our domestic trade increased-a billion
dollars and our foreign trade amounted
to a billion and twenty million dollars ,
the ilko of which was never known in
American history. The republican party
can very well afford to go before the
country upon such a record aa that.
The democrats said that this tariff law
would be prohibitive and that It would
neither lot us out nor lot ether coun
tries in , and ynt it ia plainly shown that
this country never in its history hud
such a trade before. The republican
system of duties upon foreign Importa
tions seems to have worked very well
since the McKInley law was put into
effect , and those who have studied its
results without prejudice will vote for a
coutinuniico of .tho same policy.
THE thousands of people 'who will
como to Omaha next week , most of
whom will ronroin hero several days ,
will leave a largo amount of money In
the city. This will not bo expended
wholly for accommodations. Most of
them will lake this opportunity to pro
vide thems.olveSeW.yh manyrthings not
readily to bo "pbjainod at their homos
and which theV J3an'Mgot "hero moro
cheaply. Hundreds of thomi will look
about for the s'uporlor-barga'ins which
Omaha can offer. It fa" presumed that
our wideawake merchants fully appreci
ate this , and that they wifl.mprovo | so
excellent an opportunity to apprise the
visitora of what they have worthy of
their attention. Next week can hardly
fall to bring large rewards to these
business men who attract the attention
of the people by liberally advertising
their goods.
Tim IVorld-HerdltllB frothing at the
mouth because the authorities have , in
response to a public demand , voted in
significant sums of money to help moot
the expense of a befitting celebration of
the Fourth. Had .not the national con
vention couie to Omaha on Independ
ence day there probably woula have
been less of an effort to make the cele
bration a notable one. But an exigency
has arisen and it Is th.6 duty of this city
to make some demonstration In keeping
with the two great events. It ia-truo
there is no authority in law for the ap
propriation of these small sums , and it
is no loss true that there should bo pro
vision made to cover the necessary ex
pense of public entertainments and cele
brations.
THK course ot true political love does
not always run smooth in the royal cir
cles of Europe. The betrothal of Crown
Prince Ferdinand of Iloumuniu to Princess - .
cess Marie of Edlnburg is the cause of u
great deal of trouble. Every day or two
Princess Marie receives an old love
letter sent by the crown prince to Mile.
Helen Nerasco , whoso love affair with
him created a sensation and a decided
political disturbance in Roumanian pol
itics some time ugo. American lovers
have u great deal loss trouble than
these connected with the royal families
of Europe.
AiiKANdKMENTS for accommodating
visitora to Omaha during the session of
the people's parly 'convention next week
nro about complqte'jji , and the committee
liiis no doubt that everybody will bo
pro'perly taken cnVo of. Private families
desiring guests -crtn secure them by ap
plying to the committee , whoso head
quarters ia undt/r / the Millard hotel.
The Indications art ) .that there will bo
moro people in Omaha next week than
have over been na o before at ono time ,
and they will all-.bq entertained' .
TIIK proofs of Jiugland'a hostility to
the republican tailII law multiply day
by day. This g'f-'H to show that it Is a
good law for America and a bad law for
England. ThUiVptiB It should bo. It
moans that tho' jjiorlcan manufacturer
and laborer are' protected and that the
English munufaotur'or and his employes
are the losers by 4thhV > ' .policy. Public
sympathy oh this. , glUj of the Atlantis
will go out to tho'worktngmon of Eng

free trade system which makes them
poor. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Tim full capacity of our hntola and

THK democratic platform declares

Inconsistency , ns manifest ns it is vain ,

"Between the iiges of llvo nnd fifteen ,
I was troubled with a kind of salt-
rheum , or eruption , chiefly confined to
the legs , nnd especially to the bond of
the knee above the calf. Here , running
sores formed which would scab over ,
but would break immediately on mov
ing the leg. My mother tried every
thing she could think of , but all Iwus
without avail. Although n child , I read
in the papers about the bcncllclal effects
of Ayer's Pills , and persuaded my moth
er to lot mo try thuin. With uo great
faith iu the result , she procured
Ayer's Pills
and I began to use them , and soon
noticed an improvement. Encouraged
by this , I kept on till I took two boxes ,
when the sores disappeared and hnvo
never troubled mo since. " H , Chlpmuu ,
