should be also , in the opinion of Prof.
James , technical schools puraiiing
chiefly practical ends like stenography ,
tyjcwriting , etc. , similar to our present
called commocia1 o lieges ,
'i ho interests of our gene1 al educa
tional system , said Prof. James , demand
the establishment of good commercial
high schools and of go > d schools of
finance and ec momy. He urged that
ho time has oino when the higher in
stitutions of learning would find it to
their own pecuniary interests to enlist
the direct and immediate co-operation
if the great busings world by undertak
ing to provide courses of instruction of
ollogo and university grade for those
young men who are looking forward tea
a business career. "Such courses , "
said Prof. James , "aro a do-
slrablo , indeed , wo mav faay a necessary
complement of existing forces , and by
their establishment another stop would
bo taken toward the realization of the
complete and rounded university , which
will include within itsqlf special oour.soa

J YTEKIVl/.V / NO IlOr.lh VISITORS.
The first of the royal visitors from
Spain who will attend the Columbian
"oxpositinn arrived in Now York yester
day. They are the duke of Voragua , a
lineal descendant of Columbus , the
duchess of Veragua , their son , and a
number of Sj anish grandees said to bo
the direct descendants of the great
Genoese navigator. These distinguished
visitors wore received with proper con
sideration on their arrival , and during
their stay in the metropolis _ pf
the nation they will undoubtedly
bo accorded ovorv social atten
tion duo to their btation and to the interest
torost which naturally attaches to them
as the descendants of the discoverer
whoso achievement is at this time promi
nent in the thoughts of the American
people. Now York prepared some time
ago for the reception of those guests in
a way comporting .vith their character
and with the dignity of tlm greatest com
mercial city of the western hemisphere ,
and there can bo no doubt that nothin g
will bo wanting in u social way to assure
the visitors that tiey ) u'-o heartily
welcome to the republic. In the
time that they will remain
in Now York they will bo given every
opportunity to experience American hos
pitality , and when they got to Chicago
they will have a renewal of this experi
ence that cannot fail to convince them
that the people of this republic know
how to entertain foreign visitors.
Next week the Spanish infanta , who
comes as the representative of the royal
family of Spain , is expected to arrive ,
accompanied by her husband and a num
ber of distinguished personages. Just
what will bj done to give these visitors
the attention on the part of the gov
ernment which they should receive
seems not to have boon decided upon
owing to the fact that cangress nui'lo iu
provision for their entertainment. The
mutter Is said to have somjwhat per
plexed the otllcials of the State depart
ment. The joint res > lutlon of eongi-os ?
Inviting Spanish royalty to participate
in the opening ceremonies of the expo
sition curried no appropriation for -the
purpose named. It simply states that
under the president's direction the sec
retary of state shall imike suitable ar
rangements for their reception and en
tertainment , and it is said that Secretary
Gresham has been endeavoring to deter
mine where ha can secure tlio money
necessary to ca-ry out the instiTo ions
of congress. Doubtle.-s the contingent
fund of the State department will bo
drawn upon for the purpose , leaving to
congress the appropriation of an amount
Mitllclent to cover any deficiency that
may occur. It was a singular oversight
on the part of congress not to make spe
cial provlolon for the proper entertain
ment of these royal visitors , after hav
ing invited th'om to accept the hosplml-
Ity of thW government , but whatever
may be lacking Ui public enter
talnmont will bo fully made up
by private hospitality The only quus- |
lion Is whether the royal visitors will
regard this as a satisfactory recognition ,
but It U not probable they will have
reason to tlnd fault with the treatment
they receive , public or private. It Is
perfectly safe to predict that the atten
tion and consideration which will bo ac
corded them both by the national author
ities and by citizens will satisfy them
that the American government and
people know luw to properly perform
their duty in such circumstances.

There are some considerations con
nected with the coming exposition of
the Nebraska Manufacturers and Con
sumers association which especially de
serve the attention of the people of this
state at this time. The success of the
exposition is completely assured so far
as concerns the exhibits of the various
industrial enterprises of the state. Tlio
officers of the association report that
they are constantly kept busy receiving
the applications of manufacturers for
space In the Coliseum building ,
where the exposition is to beheld
held , and it is * now settled be
yond question that every manufacturing
Interest of uny importance in this state
will bo represented. Last year the exposition -
position depended very largely upon
Omaha exhibitors , though many of the
Interior cities were well represented.
It now looks as If every town In
the state would vie with the metropolis
for supremacy in the matter of exhibits.
The efforts of the officers of the Manu
facturers' association to awaken an inter
est in the exposition among the various
firms engaged in manufacturing In this
state have been highly successful.
It has been suggested that the World's
fair at Chicago would Interfere with our
Htate exposition. There is no reasonable
ground for believing that it will do HO.
On the contrary it is to be expected that
the number of visitors at the Nebraska
exposition \ \ ill bo increased by reason of
the fact that thousands of people from
this state will pass through Omaha dur
ing the time when our exposition is
open. But it is also to bo remembered
that many thousands of people in this
state will bo made to bear the expense
of troing to Chicago , but will easily
stand the cost of coining to Omaha. The
exposition fever is in the blood of the
people this year and many of them will
spend a few dollars to visit the Ne
braska state exposition rather than see
no sights at all. Of course , it is unrea
sonable to suppose that one-third of the
people will go to the World's fair. All
would like to go , but pecuniary consid
erations will have great force with people
ple of moderate moans. The Nebraska
exposition will not by any means be a
world's fair , but it will bo both interest
ing and instructive.
There are various reasons why the
Manufacturers' exposition should bo
made as attractive as possible , and chief
among these reasons is the fact that the
people have a strong desire to go some
where and see something this year. It
is as if the year 1893 hud boon sot apart
as a grand holiday. But moro important
than all considerations of this kind Is the
central purpose of the associa
tion under whoso auspices this
exposition is to bo held. It
proposes to promote tlio interests of this
state , to encourage manufacturing la
dustries and to create a sentiment among
the people in favor of home patronage.
The sentiment in support of Nebraska
industries is already very strong and is
steadily growing. The people thor
oughly believe in tlio efficacy of homo
patronage as a means of building up the
industries of the state. It is well under
stood that the World's fair gives Chicago
cage a great opportunity to draw trade
away from this state , and it is believed
that both producers and consumers will
stand together in an effort to keep the
trade nt home. Our state exposition
will have some influence in that direc
tion , and it is to bo expected that it will
bo liberally patronized by all classes ol
people. _
MADKQUATK
According tea medical journal of high
authority the preparations tluih far made
to guard against a cholera invasion are
inadequate. It remarks of them that
they are suggestive of spasms and panics
rather than intelligent action. "Wo
have boon given legislative authority to
establish a quarantine service , " remark *
that journal , "the means , methods and
machinery of which wo imagined could
bo called into effective action in the space
of a month or two. Having done this ,
the people slipped back into a delus
ional dream of safety , leaving our boards
of health to drone on in customary do-
nothingism , allowing our streets and
allovs to fill with filth and continuing to
drink our beloved diluted sewage. " The
public is warned by tills medical author
ity that there must bo a municipal and
national house-cleaning ; that , despite all
quarantine , the possiblp epidemic is
probable , and that at last the only safety
lies in internal health and sanitation
an ability to deal with cases of cholera
wherever and whenever they arlso
within the country. This ability , it ic
said , cannot exist without a purified
water supply , clean cities and an every
where existing machinery of local med
ical policing , which now nowhere oxists.
At a conference of health officers hold
in New York during the past week to
consider questions relating to quaran
tine , reports submitted seemed to indi
cate that the chief danger from cholera
infection was through the minor ports.
For this reason national quarantine or
its equivalent should bo adopted. It
will bo useless to bar the doors If all the
windows are loft wide open. As soon in
stringent quarantine shall ba enforced
In the larger ports immigrant * who
could not bo landed In such places
will bo sent direct to these ports
which are carelessly guarded ,
or which huvo no facilities for enforcing
quarantine regulations. It will not
make much difference whether cholera
comes in at some minor port or at Now
York , If it should once got a foothold ,
local quarantine against travelers by
laud being impracticableManifest ! / ,
therefore , it is Important that the minor
ports be looked after as carefully unrl
efficiently as the larger ones.
The recent advices from Russia and
Prance regarding the outbreak of
cholera i In tlflM ? countries have boon
of < a character to urge the necessity
) f vigorous J preparations to ex
clude the j disease from this
country , and { t % most essential that
these preparations shall bo made along
our northern nmj southern borders as
well a ? at the seaports. It hm boon re-
lorted from North Dakota that already
tnmlgruntsare'coming ' Into that stuto
through Canadii md a short time ago
several car loads of Immigrants from
Hamburg catnu into Michigan by
way of Port ifuroit without any In
spection or dJtbhtion whatever. This
would seem to indicate that the national
authorities are not performing
their duty as vigilantly as could
bo desired. The Canadian gov
ernment has announced Its Inten
tion to maintain a thorough quar
antine nt Us principal ports and the
Mexican government proposes to do like-
wiser but wo should not depend upon
their doing this and leave our own ports
unguarded. There Is sufficient authority
under the act passed by the last con
gress to enable the quarantine officials
to establish a thorough system of pre
cautions wherever it may bo needed , and
It is unpleasant to learn that the work
has not been pushed us it should have
been and that the preparations generally
are inadequate. There may bo no
reason for alarm , but It Is clearly the
part of wisdom to hasten to completion
the quarantine work that must bo done.

A dispatch from Vicuna states that
the Austrian government has given no
intimation to the American legation
that Mr. Max Judd , appointed consul
general to Vienna , would not bo re
ceived , but it is known that his appoint
ment is distasteful to the government.
This , it is stated , is not because of his
religion for Mr. .Judd has said that ho
has no religion but for the reason that
his nationality is Austrian. This , of
course , is a mere pretext , the real
ground of objection being tlio fact that
ho is a Hebrew. It is another example
of Austrian intolerance , an earlier
one having been furnished dur
ing the first administration of
President Cleveland , when Mr. Keily ,
appointed minister to Austria , was
objected to for the reason that his wife
was a Jewess. The Austrian govern
ment then hud recourse to subterfuge ,
but there was never any doubt as to tlio
real cause of its objection. Our gov
ernment very properly at that time
resented the objection and insisted that
wo could recogni/.o no differences in
religion , but Keily did not go to Austria
and for some time diplomatic inter
course between the two governments
was suspended.
Mr. Judd is ready to leave for his
post of duty , and as no official objection
has been mado-to him the probability
is that ho 1Nvill ( , , ba received
and permitted * t8 ? discharge his func
tions. But this will not altogether
atone for the , fact that the Austrian
government hui fielded so far to the
intolerant antijSoiuUo element in the
empire as to perjuit tho.qucstion to bo
raised whether jjconsul general of the
United States , ! w.ould be acceptable to
that government simply for tlio reason
that ho is a Hebrew. Mr. Judd is not a
diplomatic representative and will not
enter into the social life of the Austrian
court. Ho will simply represent the
commercial interests of this country ,
and if the degenerate nobility of Austria
do not wish to have any personal
or social intercourse with him they
will not bo compelled to have. He
will undoubtedly be able to find
all the society ho desires and of a much
more congenial and worthy character.
He will find his own race not only nu
merous at the Austrian capital , but con
trolling the best newspapers , strong in
financial affairs and otherwise influen
tial.
tial.Mr.
Mr. Judd was appointed consul general
at Vienna because he was deemed to
have the necessary qualifications for the
position. His race and nationality , it is
to bo presumed , wore not considered.
There is no valid reason why they should
have been. If Austrian ofilcial intoler
ance should refuse to accept him tlio
Austrian government should be made to
take the responsibility of its intolerance.
TIIK superiority of the American loco
motive over all others is said to bo duo
chiefly to the fact that it possesses the
greatest power in proportion to weight.
Next to the American locomotive in
merit stands the English , but the latter
cannot hold its own in competition with
the superb machines turjied out by our
shops. Even on British territory , where
prejudice always exerts some influence ,
the American engine has had an exten
sive sale. Within tlio past two years
seventy-live American locomotives
have gone to Australian colonies ,
four to the British West Indies
and twelve to British North America.
To the West Indies and South America
together we have exported during the
past two fiscal years . ' 155 locomotives. O ;
these 19U wont to 'Brazil ' , eighty-six to
Cuba , tliirty-four'to"Mexico and twenty-
three to Chili. , Evun in the far eastern
countries the splendid American en
gines have becjii o popular , and the
railroad from Joppa to Jerusalem is
equipped with motlvo power importoi
from the United States. The numbei
of locomotives exported from this coun
try during the pitjt two years was 47-
and their value was $4,1 ,078. In view
of the fact that iron and steel uro
cheaper in England than in this conn
try , those extensive exports must be duo
entirely to the superiority of the
American locomotives.

ago , when the radical temperanceclcmon
carried their opposition to the llquoi

ably drastic extent , the liquor dealers
retaliated by attempting to enforce the
musty statutes , and soon created such i
sentiment that the warfare against them

Sunday newspaper proprietors , woorlec

Tun domocrutlo now.sputiers are al-
eady calling upon the now commis
sioner of pensions to strike all the
'frauds" from the pension roll. This Is
vhat should bo done whenever one Is
found , and It Is not unlikely that there
ire names on the Invalid roster that
lover should have been placed there.
It would be surprising strange If among
.ho thousands of these drawing pensions
there should not bo some of the number
not entitled thereto , especially In that
class denominated total disability pen
sioners and dependent. All honest vet
eran soldiers would have such "frauds"
stricken from the pension list at once.
And this suggests the Inquiry whether a
prominent democrat once commissioner
> f pensions himself and now drawing a
aviary of $5,000 a year and mileage as
one of the congressmen at largo from
the state of Illinois has ever surren
dered his "total disability" pension ?
There should be no distinction between
an ex-prlvuto soldier and an ox-general
in this respoctjior invidious distinction
of political party.
DK. HAKKICINK , a Russian physician

they certainly indicate the attainment
of a success which will at oncooxcito the

feature of his communications calculated

is that lie promises to make public his
method of inoculation against tlio malady
upon his return to Russia , which will

History docs repeat itself , for sure. In the
olden political time in Nebraska , that is dur
ing the Hitchcock fight that for a number of
years rent the republican party of the state
into bitter ! v hostile factions , a suio sign
that the Hitchcock element was knocked
out on some vital issue , was the inevitable
attempt to lick liosuwatcr In these Oa\s
Uosowutcr fought for the people against
Hitchcock corruption and ring ruin and it
came to be a recogn i/cd axiom among men that
a personal assault was the last argument ,
and when it occurred the people know by in
stinct that corruption had been driven from
another stronghold So nt the present time
when tno corruptionists of this day turned
loose the bully Sheridan to waylay Itoso-
water , it was apparent that Ills vigorous
fight for a full exposure of the rottenness
then cropping out , among state ofllcials was
on the highway to success. The fellows who
lick Itosawater are generally down pretty
low at the timu and the record shows that
they don't stop falling for a long time after.
It's u good oinmi for the people when some
bully goes after Hosowatcr. History repeats
the proof of it. _

O'Neill Frontier- The time in politics has
come when the republican party must drop
their old trained lobbyists and take up good
clean men ; men who have principle ; men

such men as Auditor Moore , and if tlioi can
not be found in the eastern part of the state
come west , no have lots of good , true , honest
men In northwestern Nebraska. Keep up
the investigation and turn the light of day
on the onleia ! acts nnd actions of the state
olllcials
Beatrice Democrat : Ono of the really
painful features of the impeachment pro
feedings now pending against the republi
can state ofllcials is the fact that , if found
guilty , which they no doubt will he , the }
not only lose their onlces , but thej
can never again hold olllco under the statute
While it is not likely that this crowd will
ever again be called upon to hold olllco in
Nebraska , the disfranchisement would be
most humiliating to a gang of statesmen
whose only ambition in life is to feed at the
public crib.
Stuart Ledger- The impeachment suits
which have been instituted against certain
incumbent and ox-state ofllcials was , by
force of circumstances , made necessary In
asmuch as tho.v were all placed in ofllce bj
republicans the good of the republican party
demands that they bo cither proven guilty
or innocent as the evidence may warrant ,
and no one should bo moro desirous of a
thorough sifting of the charges made against
them than republicans. The republican
partj must either purge itself of a lot of un
scrupulous politicians in this state or lose
supremacy
Tekamah Burtonian : The Burtonlau has
never taken ICdward Hosewator of Tm :
OMMIA Bcu for an angel. Ju fact we very
much doubt il the great editor ever pretended
tended to be , but his light against boodlensm
and thu impeachment of the state officers Is
commended liy this paper. If they are not
guilty it will bo soon found out and no harm
will b done , and if they arc and the Bur
tonian believes it they should bo cleaned
out to the cost of the downfall , if need bo.
of the republican party in Nebraska , for
"truth crushed to earth will rise again "
Give us clean men for state officers and the
party can then expect to rise to her high
privilege. Let the merry war go on.
Plainview Gazette : Incrc is no reason
why a party , a majority of the voters In
which are honest men , cannot select honest
men to represent it. Our voters are too
careless about this matter. The republican
party in Nebraska has enough ilonost men
to fill all the oftlces. Its members fail to do
their duty nt caucuses and conventions. Wo
hope the impeached ofllcials will bo properly
tried , and , if guilty , punished. It will hurt
the party It ought to hurt any party. If a
party cannot or will not select honest men it
ouglit to be defeated. With so many good
men to select from , if the republicans voters
of Nebraska elect n half dozen dishonest or
ineftlcient state ofilccrs nt one election , they
should not have any party.
Norfolk News : The Sioux City Tribune
says , in speaking of the Impeachment cases ,
that "they , " meaning the republicans ,
"openly boast in their party papers that
they will clear nil the impeached rascals. "
The Tribune is talking through its hat. No
such statement has over been made by the
party press in the state The people and
press of Nebraska , regardless of party atlllia-
lion , hoi'o to see the accused brought to an
early trial , and if found guilty , punished to
the full extent of the law. The Tribune ,
hko a great many other partis-in journals , is
over ready to condemn and sentence an
official offender in the opposing party on
newspaper testimony. Undouotedly there
has been crookedness iu some departments
of our state government. But from a perusal
of many outside papers and some within the
borders of the state , one would be led to sup
pose that such a virtue as honesty was efl-
tiicly foreign to the average Ncbraskan
