HILL Is at Albany and Cleveland at
Buzzard's ' Hay. But there is a great
flual moro than those 600 miles between
them. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Wi ! shall not bo satisfied with this
campaign until wo have ' heard a joint
dobiita between Colonel Henri Walter-
son and Mrs. Mary Lease.
JUST how many dollars Uncle Wil

the Missouri river and our despised
union depot , the telegraph fails to state.
TIIK resignation of Minister Albert
G. Porter and bin return from Italy
to enter the campaign in Indiana puts
lo rest another interesting fairy tale
concerning his antipathy toward Presi
dent Harrison.
TIIK Colorado republicans have got
into line and nominated u state ticket
with good judgment and enthusiasm.
President Harrison's wise and tetn-
porato remarks on sllvor have evidently
nnd good results in the west thus oiirly.
TIIK Long Island citizens who are in
arms because of iho Intended occupa
tion of Fire island by the Normannia
passengers apparently need the ser
vices of Fool-Killer Whitney , if he can
ha spared from the democratic campaign
for a short limo.
IT 18 not an easy task to Lo nsayor of
Chicago when two of the great dailies
there arc owned by men who wore may
ors of Unit eiiy themselves. Any school
teacher will toll you that no patron
gives him half so much trouble as the
who was himself oneo a toai-hor.
TIIKUK are plenty of able and honor-
ublo republicans in Omaha who could bo
elected with almost no effort. Lot ono
of them bo loyal to his city and party
und forget his Bullishness enough to en
ter the race for congress. The pcoplo
are ready and anxious to vote for such
n man.
ACCOIUHNO to the Chicago Herald ,
"as matters now stand Cleveland has
no more chance of currying Now York
than Weaver has. " Then the Herald
goes oil rainbow chasing after Illinois
mid Wiscoiifiln. There in no spectacle

Tim throats of n. strike of tho'ongl-
noors on the Reading railroad are duo

quired to join the Heading Relief asso

to the men than the brotherhood , as its
death benefits are only ono-third as
high as those of the latter. Pubho
sympathy la with the men. The Reading -
ing , or the manager of the coal coin-
blno , has forfeited all claims upon pub
lic consideration.
A CUUIOUS instance of the effect of
partlsanshlp upon the conduct of some
of the democratic newspapers ia shown
In the ease of the Now York labor com-
inlnslonor's report. They suppressed
the telegraphic summary of the report
because it waH damaging to their cause ,
but now they are publishing columns of
arguments purporting to show that it
cannot p isnlbly bo true. How oui : their

publican oiubdon Saturday with Wtilto-
law Ruid , Governor Mclvlnluy and ox-
Governor Forakor us the principal
upoakora A great deal of enthusiasm
was manifested ana It was evident that
the loiigtio IHIH unturod upon thu cam
paign with a determination to achieve
trout results. In the course of Mr.
Hold's apooch ho said , referring to the
foolish talk about President Harrison's
coldness : "Sixty-llvo millions of Intolll-
punt and sqlf-rospootlng frocuiun want
to have u president who does not gush ,
dooa not slop ever , does not play dema
gogue ; who boars himself with the mod-
UHt simplicity of a private oltlzun and yet
with the dignity and decorum of the
groatstntlon to which they oloviitod him ;
who uioi8iiro3 ; his words and keeps
thorn. " Tula ia u just ostluinto of the
character of Iho prc&ldout.
"When Iho republicans of Nobnwkn by
an nlmost unanimous vote of n atnto
convention compo.xod of tnoro than 800
delegates expressed the desire to hnvo
the editor of Tins Biu : placed upon the
national committee they imposed upon
him n grtivo responsibility. They placed
htm In the position of the pilot charged
with steering rv great ship through a
no Hlous waterway full of invisible reefs
nnd shoals upon which the vessel is
liable to bo stranded nnd wrecked any
moment unices skillfully directed. In
Buch a hazardous voyage the ship's
crow must necessarily heed every
danger signal and warning cry of the
man at the holm. On the other hand ,
Iho pilot who would neglect to apprise
the crow of danger and thus imperil th
the lives of the passonpors and safety of
the cargo would bo criminally derelict
lo his duty and justly responsible for
any disaster.
In Iho present campaign the republi
can party In Nebraska Is embarked on a
stormy political sun. Success or disaster
depend entirely upon the ability of the
pilot to guldo the ship through the
'Jnngcrnu ? channels. It is manifestly
his duty to warn the party against plac
ing Its fate In' the hands of candidates
whoso careers are tainted or whoso
conduct and character would subject the
party to attaclcs that cannot successfully
bo parried.
It Is this function of party monitor
that compollB Tins BJK : and its editor
to point out the vulnerable spots in the
armor of men whoso ambition c.innot bo
gratified without jcapordlzing party
success. Tills course naturally rouses
a great deal of resentment among
the ytillow dog stripe of politicians who
Imagine that a nomination in Nebraska
still means an election as it did four or
six yunrs ago.
\Vlth this explanation the position of
TIIK BKK as regards Messrs. Scott and
Mercer nnd ot.lmr candidates will bo
more fully undorstood. The success of
the republican party is more important
than the gratification of the Ambition
of any Individual , oven whore ho has
rendered excellent service. No can
didate should bo foisted upon the party
because ho wants n place , but becnubo
ho is the best man that can bo found to
fill the place , and because ho , of all
other candidates , will meet the demands
of the people for a higher grade of
public servants. This is the only safe
course to pursue in the present cam
paign , and for that matter in every
other campaign. This is the course
TIIK BKK has mapped out for the party
in the present crisis , and from this
course it cannot bo driven by the howl
of malcontents and mutineers , whatever
the consequences may bo.
7//B FAKE FACTOKVAT U'OHK.
WASHINGTON , D. G. , Sept , , 10. There la a
decided row In tbo republican national cum-
nnttoa whicU mny result In the resignation
of several of the members of that body Unless
the dllToroncos uro patched up. A gentleman
high In the counsels of luo party who has
Just returned iron ) Noiv Yorlc reports that
the last mootiuf ; of the national commlttco
llm wcolc wus a very stormy aff.itr. It ap
pears that Do Young of California , Kose-
water of Nebraska , Huston of Indiana ana
several other western members of the com-
mlttoo nr3 disgruntled because of the failure
of Harrison's manager * to jj've ' them thn
prominence in the manniromont of the cam
paign to which they consider thotnsolvos on-
titled. The western headquarters in Chicago
were established ut the instanca ot some of
thnsn men , but they have had very little to do
with thosliuplntr of affairs to this end , and
they are growing very loud as a conseiiuonc'j.
Omnlia H'lirltl-lleralil.
This l& another sooclman brick of the
product of the Omaha Fake Factory.
The whole story is fabricated Mthout a
shadow of foundation.
There is no row in the republican na
tional committee and there has not boon
any discord or threatened rupture since
it was organized. Mr. Do Young of
California was elected vice chairman at
the first meeting of the committee. By
virtue ot his position ho is a member of
the executive committee with equal au
thority of any other member. IIo has
been on the const for the last six weeks
and lias devoted his energies to the work
devolving on him in that section. The
other two members named have boon
assigned to work in their respective
states with incidental co-operation west
of Indiana and Illinois. There is no
clashing of authority nnd there is not
likol y to bo any in the committee , and
the opposition will derive very little aid
or comfort from giving circulation to
such stupid fakes.
TIIK ItHl'UHLlOAN ULU'J GOXVEXTIOX.
The national convention of repub
lican clubs will moot nt Buffalo next
Thursday , and It is expected to exert u ,
valuable Inlluonco upon the republican
canvass. The object of this mooting of
the clubs is to consult for the advance
ment of the common cause nnd to con
sider ways and means for Htrongthonlng
their own organizations. There are
about 13,000,000 voters enrolled In the
national league , and they will bo rep
resented in the national convention by
about 1,600 dologatos.
The indications are that this will be
ono of the most interesting and enthusi
astic national conventions of republican
clubs yet hold. The most ample prep
arations have boon made with this end
In view. Able speakers will address
tbo convention , among thorn Governor
McICinloy , Senator Wolcott and Con
gressman Dulllver , and doubtless other
prominent republic us will contribute
by loiter to the advocacy of republican
policy and principles. An interesting
feature of the gathering will bo the
session of the American Republican
College league , which will moot to dis
cuss plans for perfecting and braitdun-
Inglts org.mlis-itipn. It uUo .proposes
to nrr.ingo for a upuaklng "campaign of
education" at points where college men
ohlelly congregate. This league has at
tained a rcnurkablo growth and Is re
ported to bo steadily growing. It now
contains nearly 1/5,000 / club * , with a
membership of at Inust 1,600,000 , und it
is bollovod that before election day the
total will bo 13,000,000.
Thus the two leagues whoso delegates
will moot , In convention at HulTalo next
Thursday contain about II.OUO.OOO votora
a magnlllciMit army of earnest , onor-
( rotlo and zealous republicans whosu
hoarlu are in the campaign and who
will give their very best cIT.ii ta for'tlo :
success of the republican party. It is
hardly possible to overestimate the
value of this force If wisely and properly
directed. Intelligent , courageous , nnd
heartily devoted to the t-atiso in which
they tire enlisted , those league in on con
stitute a power that should provu of
the greatest possible advantage to the
republic in ptrty. With nearly ono-
third of the votnrsof the country , manly
young men of chtir.ictor and Inlluonco
in their communities , concentrating
tholr olTorts for the cause , they cannot
fail to do an Immense amount of good.
The success of the national convention
of clubs Is assured , arul the sound repub
lican doctrines that will bo enunciated
there will undoubtedly bo largely helpful -
ful to the republican canvass.
.1 cn.lnAcTKnisrto nrUFt\
Commissioner Pcclc of the slate of
Now York Is to bo investigated. The
managers of the democratic national
campaign hnvo designated n committee
to do the work , and the commissioner
will bo compelled by mandamus to give
up the documents required if ho does
not do so of his own free will. A determined -
mined olTort will be inndo to ehovv that
his report is not truthful nnd that the
Interests of the manufacturers and work-
ingincn of the state of Now York are
sulferlng , instead of Improving , by rea
son of the protective tariff.
There la nothing surprising about this.
It is in perfect harmony with the imme
morial practice of the democracy. It
is simply a bluff , and the democratic
party always resorts to that game when
it ( Inds itself in a corner. The domo-
c-ats in congress are always investigat
ing the iic',8 ' of republican otllclals. They
never Und anything wrong , but. that
does not disappoint or discourage them.
They do not expect to find anything
wrong. That Is not the object of dumo-
urali'j investigating committees. It is
assumed that the people will infer , Irom
the more fact that an investigation has
been ordered , that there must bo some
thing crooked that requires looking
into. In this case it is a democratic ofli-
cial that , Is to bo shown up , but it hap-
pbiia that ho has boon giving testimony
hurtful to free trade in the pursuit of
his regular duties as a statistician , and
therefore ho is to bo turned ever to the
inquisitors.
All who are acquainted with demo
cratic campaign tactics will understand
what this investigation mo.ins. Pock's
report has reduced the democrats of the
Kmpiro state to desperation. lie has
hit them squarely between the eyes.
Perhaps aa a good democrat ho would
not have done it if ho had realized what
the effect would bo , but now that the
blow has boon delivered ho refuses to
stultify himself by receding from his
position. Ho says that his figures concerning -
corning the growth of manufacturincr
interests and the improvement in the
condition of the wage earners are based
upon the statements of thousands of
manufacturers in the state of Now York ,
including representatives of both polit
ical parties , and that ho docs not pro
pose to make a fool of himself by trying
to impeach them.
Very few people will bo so dull
as not to understand what Is mount by
this pretense of investigating the re
port of the New York labor commis
sioner. It is designed to create a sus
picion in the minds of weak-minded
people that the report Is fraudulent.
Similar tactics are often employed by
shyster lawyers and others who are un
willing to stand up and take hard pun
ishment in a manly way. It is not likely
that there will bo any serious investiga
tion , but it is thought by the free trade
campaign managers that a little blusterer
or bluff on the subject will confuse the
public mind and break the force of the
commissioner's convincing statistics.
Wo do not believe that the people can
bo so easily imposed upon.
31A1XK TODAY.
Maine will today elect state olllcors
and members of the legislature. The
result is awaited with interest by both
republicans und democrats , and while it
is highly probable that the republican
candidates wi 1 ho elected , any predic
tion of-tho result would bo somewhat
hazardous. The democrats are hotter
organized than usual und will muico ex
traordinary exertions to got out their
vote. When they do this the repub
licans usually have from 10,000 to 113,000
plurality. Two nnd four years ugo the
democrats wore not out in their full
strength , and the republican plurality
rose to 18,000. It is thought that this
year the total vote will for various rea
sons fall considerably below the mini
mum.
The chairman of the republican state
committee said in a recent Interview
that it was impossible to make as ac
curate a canvass under thu now system
of voting by tlio Australian ballot law
as it was under the old system , and ho
expressed the opinion that it will bo a
marvel if the total vote is not reduced
by the now system the llrst time it is
tried. This was the case In Vermont
last Tuesday and , remarkable as it may
scorn , the republicans wore the losers
by it. A like experience in Maine is
therefore by no moans improbable.
There are ono or two things that may
cost the republicans some votes , notably
a proposed amendment lo the constitu
tion , submitted by the last republican
legislature , providing an educational
quulillcatlon for suffrage. There are
live candidates for governor in the Hold.
TIIK MOXiSI'.llir CONIftlllEXCK.
The outbreak of cholera in continental
Europe is very likely lo defer the meet
ing of thu international conference to
consider thu ailvor question , mid it prob
ably will not bo held onrllor than December -
comber , while it may bj pojtponofl to
the early part of next year. A dolny of
a month or two would be of no serious
consequence , oven if the conference had
any other authority than merely as an
advisory body , but there Is a feeling
tliat the llminulal condition of the com
mercial world , admitted to bo duo in
grout part to the disparity of the money
inetulH , demands attention , The fact
that the ratio of silver to gold has for a
year or more varied between 20 to 1 und
21 to 1 , whorcu < < the coinage ratio'.i n
Kuropo 16 } to 1 and in this country 1(1 (
to 1 , presents a condition that cat's
for a readjustment of the relations bo-
tw on the money mottls.
Tin object of the conference Is to
consider whotlto'H practicable way cnn
can bo found wUijjuUt disadvantage to
any country , to. bring about such a read
justment. It b'.teono authority beyond
thin , but If tha.oimtoronuo should ngrcn
upon a plan furUan international ratio
and a wider use of silver in consequence
the several goVcJrnmontfl represented
would bo very lijc.oly to accept It. Presi
dent Harrison /siild in his loiter of ac-
eeptnnco , that \ffl \ ? ° may not only hope for
"
but expect hlgh"jybonoQeInl results from
this conference" , "but slnco that was
written It has b'&MYi reported that there
was some doubt a's ' to whether Mr. Glad
stone would approve of England taking
any part In the conference. If ho should
decide against the English govern
ment being represented , which under
the circumstances booms hardly proba
ble , that would doubtless put an end to
Iho matter , as neither Germany nor
Franco would care to discuss the subject
Independent of England. It Is undoubt
edly true that Mr. Gladstone 1ms no
sympathy with the objects of the con-
foronco. Ills devotion to mono-motnl-
Hsm as it is found in the linnnclnl
policy of England , Is as strong as his
regard for free trado. But'the British
government under hi predecessor hav
ing accepted the Invitation of the United
States government to join In the con-
foronsc it would seem that ho would fool
bound In deference to his predecessor
anil also from a fooling ot courtesy to
this government to lot that arrange
ment stand.
It may bo remarked in this connec
tion , as a matter not entirely irrelevant
to the silver situation , that gold con
tinues to go abroad from this country ,
which may bo accepted as indicating in
some degree foreign distrust of our sil
ver policy. With the trade balance
largely in our favor the steady outflow
of gold is an unnatural movement that
is not satisfactorily oxplamed by the
statement that European holders are
parting with our railway securities.
OMAHA people interested in that most
bracing sport , foot ball , will have an
opportunity on Thanksgiving day of
witnessing a contest like that between
Harvard and Yale at Now York each
year. Iowa university and Nebraska
university meet on neutral grounds
hero , and , while in a preceding match
Iowa came out ahead , It is hoped this
year that Nebraska will bo able to con
quer the boys from across the river.
At any rate , it will bo a sight well
worth witnessing. *

There is a now west with n local flavor ,
a landscape and n social llfu as distinctively
characteristic as these of any country In Eu
rope , or as New England , the tnlddlo states
and Iho south. But thu Hold has not been
well tilled , and with ono. or two exceptions
It remains without literary prophets. It has
not , produced n single immortal poem and it
Is doubted If it has produced n single endur
ing work of llctlon , altnough n young woman
not unknown to many Omahtt people has
come nearest giving to the reading public a
novel of oxcontlonal merit and ono that gives
evidence of enduring fame , Miss Minnie
Uilmoro , daughter of thu Ininous band
master , Patrick tiarsflold Gllmoro , whoso
story , "A Son of Esau , " has Just bcou issued
from the press of Lovoll , Corvoll Sc Co. , Nci'.v
York1.
lu the last ton years the literary possibili
ties of the souta hnvo received marked at
tention at iho hnnds of publishers and maga
zines. The quaint life , the odd dialects und
Iho picturesque environments ot the south
ern states nave been put before the world
with u vividness and attractiveness that
must bo highly gratifying to the people who
live south of Mason and Dlxon's line. But
with the Doislblu exceptions of E. W. Howe ,
tbo philosopher nnd humorist of the Atctil-
son Globe , Mary Hallcclc Footo , Oelnvo
Thnnet , Patience Staplulon , Charles F.
Lummis , Walter Ballostler , and several
minor writers there has boon no movement
to give tbo satno opportunities to the pi atria
hind and the beautiful intermounlain region
comprised In the now west , that blossoming
laud which occupies ono-thlrd of the con
tinent between the Missouri river and the
Sierra Nevadas. But Miss Gilmorc's tcnso
auu dramatic story of moral shimvrccks
gives hope that Iho day is not fur "distant
when tbo now west will bo as well known to
the casual reader as the south is , under thu
tutelage of Charles Egbert Craddock
George W. Cable , Hlchnrd Malcolm John ,
son , Mrs. Burton Harrlsbn , Amelia Utvus ,
Hopkiuson Smith , Frances Courtney Baylor
and scores of others who have written
stories aud sketches of Virginia and ilia
south Atlantic states.
"A Son of Esau" is ambitious to a dogrno
and dcnls witti that most fruitful of thcroos ,
tbe love of man and woman. Although one
cannot hide one's eyes at times to the Inten
sity of the passiou ready to break out In
Whlto boat at tbo slightest Intimation that
such would be tolerated , upon ttio part of iho
sweet , lovable horolno of tbo story , from
the mugnlllcout znlmal , Steele Ilnrrlman ,
the hero. It is full of the poetry and ibo
music which has been part of thu lifo of the
Author since her earliest childhood , and
throughout aho shows n : nastor comprehen
sion of what are tba leal equities In modern
composition. Thu story lilts n place In llter-
nture as the oratorio does In music , and Is
tbe legitimate orchestral composition to her
llrst literary effort , "Pipes from i'rairio
Land , " almost all of which wcro written
amid the environments of a Nebraska home.
Back of tbo portrayal of unbridled passions ,
of shady transactions , of flashy ctiuracters
seen in the days gene by in every western
town , back of thu tragedy which Is as in-
ovitublu us death , there runs u strong relig
ious sentiment , wblCb is tbo reflection of
the lite of Iho young author , whoso
school days wore pssscd within thu
.shadow of the convent. vVhilo the story deals
with moral loners , of frlmidships blamed , of
friends ruined'of dobauchorv covered by the
cloaU of these 11 n do soldo days , there is a
beautiful faith pictured ana a holy charity
sugccstoa which covers u multitude of short
comings , lu development it is n model , in its
deiKiumont the strongest dramatic ia tlncis
in Ufa have been brought under subjection.
Yet withal the story U not Impossible , on the
contrary It Is common enough , in the
manner of its working out does Us
rarity chiefly consist. Some of the charac
ters uro easily recognizable , the Hushlncs ,
tbo governor and bis wife of Nebraska , are
the counterfoil presentiments of Mr. and
Mrs. H. C. Curbing of this city. In Mrs.
Annabel Horko. "a cultured and brilliant
woman of social tact and charm. " wo uoa the

In warmth of expression her literary

the ordinary emotional writer , nnd In word-
painting she occupies no mean ground. The
story commences on 5 "slowing , golden ,
