Hoaby Winter did not linger in

the front at one bound. ' Welcome,
Winter. . ..
f Prohibition was defeated in At
lanta, where it has been tried for a
jesr or two. They should now
adopt Nebraska high license, and
enforce it to the letter.
The Nebraka State-Journal is
now published every day in the year,
the publishers having commenced a
Monday edition last Monday.
Being always in the front, the
State-Journal is bound to keep up
t with the times indeed it leads the
procession. Those who desire a
good paper sound on Republican
doctrines, should subscribe for the
Journal. The Weekly is only $1.
per year.
The town o Madrid will make a
noble fight for the county seat of
the new county to be erected out of
the south half of Keith. Madrid is
in a good location, and its people
start out with a good record. They
are not handicapped with the stig
ma of fiaudnlent voting. A people
who will encourage, aid or abet
such frauds as were perpetrated at
the polls on the division question do
not deserve a county seat. They
"should have denounced the fraud in
immeasurable terms. A pure ballot
box is among the safeguards of
our liberal institutions. It should
be kept pure and undefiled.
Ix order to find out what virtue
there is in that great American writ
of habeus corpus, the members of
the Lincoln city council decided to
go to jail instead of paying their
fines. They will ask the Supreme
Court at Washington to investigate
, the case and see if they have com
mitted contempt. Although Judge
iBrewer probably had no business to
interfere with the municipal affairs
of Lipcoln on the information pre
sented to him, it is likely the
Judges will decline to investigate,
and the only justice the councilmen
will get will be the satisfaction of
holding Brewer up to the conatry
as judge who interfere im local
affairs without just came. Tke
people are on the side of the councilmen.
A question has arisen .concerning
the validity of chapter 28 of the
r session laws of 1887, permitting
counties to issue bonds for the erec
tion of court houses and jails. The
whole business seems to be badly
bungled, and illustrates the need of
a constitutional convention. The
idea that the legislature can't amend
a law or a section of a law without
going through a formula that a
Philadelphia lawyer cannot under
stand is too silly to be endured by a
sensible people. To test the validi
ty of the act a friendly case has
been agreed upon and was submit-
ted to the supreme court Tuesday.
It is in the nature of a mandamus
on the relation of S. H. Burnham
to compel Auditor Babcock to regis
ter 5,000 jail bonds issued
by Logan county. A decision may
be looked for early next week. If
the court decides the act inopera
tive the court house bonds voted by
this county last fall will not be is
sued and Lincoln county will go
without a jail for a number of years.
Mr. Walling, late chief of po
lice and superintendent of the detec
tive force in New York, has writ
ten a Took, in which he says that
the Republican form of govern
ment in New York and other
large cities is a failure. He does
not favor the election of city officers
by popular vote. That is a conclu
sion many advanced thinkers arrived
at long since. It is not the people,
the leading citizens, who elect of
ficers to govern the cities, but poli
ticians backed by a gang of hoodV
lums. One extreme follows "an
other. At present the city of New
York is governed by the riff-raff,
and a very poor government it is.
When the intelligent people have a
few moments to spare from their
mad pursuit of wealth, there will be
atchange, and a different class will
govern with an iron hand. Mr.
Walling evidently favors monarchy.
The President having definitely
settled upon Lamar for the vacant
judgeship, it is by no means certain
that the senate will confirm the ap
pointment. Lamar took a very ac
tive part in the secession of the
southern states in 1861, and is still
a dyed in the wool states rights
man. He has improved every occa
sion to show his unchanged views
upon the questions supposed to be
settled by the war. Although the
President may desire to fill the su
preme bench with men entertaining
such sentiments, is it not the duty
the senate to stand guard at th'e
door and not admit them? To Re
publicans it looks that way.
- The Democaatic party of Nebras
ka is patiently waiting for the Re
publicans to espouse the cause of
prohibition in this State, hoping
thereby to make political capital.
Perhaps there is a larger percentage
of Democrats who favor prohibition
than there are of Republicans, but
they are like Joe Bagstock, sly, dev
ilish sly, and want the Republicans
to initiate the move, hoping there
by to reap the benefits of the disaf
fection that is sure to follow, and
which quite likely would be suffi
cient to elect a Democratic ligisla
ture; thereby securing a Democratic
senator. We believe we have the
best law on the liquor traffic that
can be devised and-enforced at pre
sent". Let well enough alone and
quit 4"-m on keying1' with prohibition.

A dispatch from Sofia says that
at a secret sitting of the sabrange it

The Vote of the 10th District.
The canvass of the votes cast for
Judge in the 10th Judicial District
made at Lincoln this week, shows
that Hamer received 9886 and Green
5690, Hamer's majority 4,196. The
district is the largest in the State,
not only in territory but in popula
tion. Douglas county with four
judges cast 14,456, while this dis
trict cast 15,576 votes Comprising
ten counties, the district is 280
miles long and has a larger popula
tion than any other district, yet one
judge does the work. We call at
tention to these figures to prove
that Judge Hamer cufiot possibly
be eo alow ae was charged by the
opposition , press during the late
campaign.

Mugwump Curtis on Cleveland.
The bitterness and personality of
a presidential election were almost
surpassed in the late contest over
the distnet attorneyship of this city.
But a painful incident the signifi
cance of which does not appear with
the election, and which will have
important results hereafter, was the
participation in the local contro
versy of the president of the United
States and mayor of New York.
The masterly and crushing letter
of Mr. Schurz to the1 mayor must
have been exceedingly mortifying to
that gentleman'as tit was satisfac-
i ii - A'iirl t i i I
to me most intelligent ana patriotic
sentiment of the community. The
folly even of supposed official inter
ference in elections was memorably
demonstrated. Mr. Schurz states
that-in 1882, when Mr. Cleveland
was elected governor by an over
whelming and unprecedented major
ity, which was designed as a rebuke
of supposed executive interference.
Yet it was never shown that Presi
dent Arthur, although naturally in
terested in the success of his secre
tary of the treasury, took any steps
to secure it. Had he written to Mr.
Folger, a perfect irreproachable pub
lic officer and private citizen, such a
letter as president Cleveland wrote
just before the late election to Mr.
Fellows, it would have been justly
resented as. a most unbecoming and
and undignified interference with
the election of the executive. Pres
ident Cleveland's letter is, we be
lieve, the first instance of such au i
act in a local election, ana tne aem- ;
ocratic councellors who advised it, i
and the president in yielding to
their advice, have greatly shaken
the public confidence in the execu
tive good sense. The letters of the
president and mayor have illustrated
still stronger than before the neces
sity of separating the municipal
government from partisan contro
versity a movement in which the
support of the president and mayor
might reasonably have been antici -pated

A Costly Canal.
New York, Nov. 24. The alarm
iU reports which are accumulating
concerning the Panama Canal, and
the; fact that DeLesseps is making
aaother effort to secure another
loan in order, as he says, to partial
ly open the canal and use the re
ceipts toward its completion are
beginning to cause considerable
anxietv in financial circles, both
here and iu Europe. The questions
are now being asked on all sides:
"What has become with all the
money that has been subscribed?"
and "Does the amount of work so
far accomplished account for the
amount of money expended?"
The Herald sent a reporter to in
terview Senor Louis Tanco, son of
the Columbian aeent. in order to
have the above questions answered,
it possiDie, irom an autuuritive
source. After reading over the ex
pense account to June 30, 1886,
which amounted to 8157,000,000,
Senor Tanco said: "Many of these
items are simply enormous, and out
of all proportion to what they
should be. For instance, there is
the Panama railroad. It could have
been bought for a much smallersum
than 818,685,088. The canal com
pany paid 8250 per share when it
was quoted at 880."
"How do you account for that?"
"That is something that no felr
low has yet accounted for."
What are the other items you
consider as being much above what
they should be?
There are many of them. Take
the Central Hospital at Panama.
The idea of paying or at least
nharffinff S5.600.000 for it, besides
81,400,000 for another hospital and
Colon, a total of 87.000.000 for
hospitals, and $465,000 for a sani-
tanuni at Taboga, togetner witn
84,800,000 for a pharmaceutic staff,
which brings tne total up to $.s,
765,000 to look after the health of
the personnel of the road, is more
than preposterous. Then there are
more than $2,700,000 for servants,
$600,000 for stables, 85,250,000 for
the building which comprises the
manager's office, private residence,
etc., $8,400,000 for offices in New
York, Paris, and Panama; $2,000,
000 for 'indemnity1 that was the
cost of entertaining the guests who
were invited to accompany M. De
Lesseps to Panama to inspect the
canal during a week's sojourn andT
$2,000,000 more for an indemnity
to contractors, which it seems to me
could or should have been avoided.
"What do you think will be the
total cost of the canal when finish
ed9" I don't think it will a dollar
under $500,000,000."
"How do you account for the
small profits of. the Panama Rail
way since it has passed into the
hands of the canal company?"
"I can not account for it. If any
one can, nobody does. It used to
pav dividends of from 12 (in 1878)
to 34 Cm 1881) per cent. Now
the dividends are only 2 per cent,
as it ever -aio.
