Ikdia is proving a commercial
foe of tbe United States this vear.
Following the stoppage of silver
coinage comes the news that she
has an enormous surplus of wheat.
The "petty flings" of The
Tribune at Commissioners Diehl
and Hill were warranted. By
their actions tha county treasury
was knocked out of over a thousand
dollars. Any honest man would
enter a protest against such pro
ceedings.
Dowk at Lincoln the other day
a nan toted around six thousand
dollars because he distrusted the
bank. During the night he visi
'teda negro dive and when .he
Emerged therefrom his money was
BMaing. "A fool and his money
. is -soon parted.
The. first words of Fielden, one
of the'released anarchists, after his
reunion with his family, were: "I
propose hereafter to live for my
family and keep my mouth shut.
To carry out the latter part of the
sentence will prove difficult for
Fielden, but it he succeeds the
country should feel a little grateful.
Iowa republicans have proposed
to name Miss Alice L. Heald as
their candidate for state superintend
dent of public instruction. Miss
Heald is a scholarly, brainy woman
and would undoubtedly fill the
position as competently as any man.
Women desire to extend their sphere
of usefulness, and why not give
them the opportunities?
Some nice local showers this
week, but not enough, Jay Sterl
ing, unless you want the crop of
populists in Lincoln county this fall
unusually large. Era. Right you
are. The only thing that can save
the independent party's bacon is a
nearly total failure of crops.' It
"was such a condition, of affairs that
called the party into existence three
.seasons ago.
Petitions from twenty-seven
western counties in Kansas have
been sent to Govemor Lewelling
asking that he call a special session
of the legislature to appropriate
funds for the relief of the farmers
of those counties whose crops have
proved a failure. The governor
believes that sufficient aid can be
obtained from citizens without
going to the expense of calling a
special session.
Another appeal for aid has been
sent to the United States by the
Parnellites, but it is not believed it
will-receive heartv response. There
is a growing feeling in this country,
. w a- a
says the Uraaba ree, that tbe ex
tremists in the Irish party are exert
ing more influence against home
rule than for it. Conservative
Irish-Americans have come to see
that Gladstone's policy is the surest
even it it tails to concede every
thing demanded by the radical home
rule party of Jreland.
- Pbesidext Cleveland has yielded
to the urgency of the financial sit
uation and to the pressure of pub
lic-opinion and has issued a call for
a special session of congress to meet
August 7th. It is likely quite
number of proposition looking to
the alleviation of the money market
will be submitted, and the contests
over the same will be prolonged.
There seems to be a general opinion
that the siver purchase law will be
conditionally repealed.
With billions of dollars on de
posits in the banks of the country,
two billions of which are in savings
banks, there seems no reasonable
chance for a general panic. There
is undoubtedly sufficient money in
the country for all legitimate busi
ness purposes, but a lack of confi
dence in the future acts of the party
in power has resulted in the con
traction of loans and the hoarding
of money. In the North Platte
banks the deposits are as large as
ever, but loans have been
curtailed, and the cash in the vaults
is twice as great as is usually
held. The holding of money by
the local banks is due to results in
the east aud not to the condition of
local business.
Even from Mexico, which re-'
mains the only silver country in
the world, comes a pretty clear con
ception of some of the causes that
have led to the -present financial
condition in the United States. The
Mexican financer does not attribute
the money failures that have taken
'place here within the past few
weeks to a "tight money market."
That this is not the cause is made
evident, it says, by the fact that
during the past few months the
currency has been increased by the
issue of $15,000,000 in treasury
notes which have been paid out in
the purchase of silver bullion by
the government under the Sherman
silver act .The gold which has
been going to Europe has been taken
from the vaults of the national
treasury and not from the banks or
.pockets of the people. The real
reason for the -stringency it finds
"is the lessened confidence of the
' banks and the money lenders in
tfeeafeiliiy of the borrowers to re
pay the loans demanded. And be
hind this distrustful sentiment of
the holders of money lies the fear
that the country k coming to a sil
ver basis and will soon be in the
same plight as are India and this
country. Credit has been with
drawn because lenders do not care
to ran the risk of being paid in a
U5-ceBt dollar. No man wishes to
lend gold dollars today and a month
hence to be paid in silver dollars.
Thatie the 'rub1 in the United
State." Bee.
Misleading Statiitio. ,
The most deceptive and mis
leading statistical exhibit that is
given to the public periodically is
the compilation of Nebraska farm
mortgage records as reported to the
commissioner of labor. The latest
of these reports, which has just
been made public, is in no respect
less misleading than those that
have preceded it. The commis
sioner places the aggregate amount
of farm mortgages recorded in the
twelve months ending May 31, 1893,
at $25,216,787. For the. same
period the mortgages released ag
gregate $19,435,038. On the face
of these returns the farm indebted
ness of the state has been increased
during the year by $5,780,849.
As a matter of fact, the farm
mortgage debt of Nebraska has
been reduced by fully $10,000,000
during the past year and, possibly,
by a considerably larger amount
The figures furnished to the labor
commissioner by the county clerks
under the law of 1891 simply show
the aggregate amounts of mort
gages filed and released. The bulk
of the mortgages filed last year are
not new mortgages, but renewals of
old mortgages. It is safe to say
that of the $25,000,000 of mort
gages filed, not more than $8,000.
000 were for new debt. On the
other hand the bulk of the mort
gages released represent debts paid
off. Only comparatively few of the
releases were made for the purpose
of renewal or extension. Another
thing that is entirely omitted from
the reports of the county clerks to
the labor commissioner are the'par
tial payments of mortgage notes.
These payments are indorsed on
each note, but are not reported un
til the last payment is made and the
mortgage is canceled. The amount
of debt wiped out by the farmers of
Nebraska from year to year with
out reporting to the county clerks
cannot be definitely ascertained,
but it must run into the millions.
In fact, the bulk of the debt-paying
by farmers is done gradually until
the mortgage is lifted and the
official returns of mortgages filed
and cancelled are therefore worth
less for the purpose of ascertaining
the increase or decrease of the
mortgage farm debt. Bee.
More Truthful than Poetic
The Daily Drift of the State
Journal says: It is estimated that
$65,000,000,000 would cover the
entire wealth of this country. It is
also tearfully stated on fairly good
authority that 25,000 men out of a
population of 62,372401, own and
control than half the available
assets of the country and are ab
sorbing the balance as fast as they
know how. Here is another fact,
worth stopping to consider: Every
year the American people squander
in strong drink si,uuu,uuu,uw, or
one-sixty-fifth of the aggregate
wealth of the country a sum larger
than that fooled away for tobacco,
.
bread, snoes and several other ne
cessities combined. The person who
lives to be sixty-five years of age.
will have seen, if he has kept His
eyes peeled, every dollar of nations
wealth filtered through the coffers
of the retailer in spirituous liquors
And in the face of this appalling
fact, the red nosed anarchist wil
stand up to the bar, spend $6.80 for
dnnk and then, grumble because the
grocery dealer asks a profit of
twenty cents on the sack of flour he
subsequently purchases on time
after spending so much for coffin
varpish that he might have strength
of breath to curse the government
for the down-trodden condition of
those who labor by the sweat of
their Tirow. There is just reason
for fearing that so long as our peo
ple spend a billion dollars every
vear for harmful beverages, when
water is so cheap, universal pros
penty will continue to be some
thing of an irridescent dream
attainable, but not attained.
Mr. Henderson's proposition that
the government should immediately
sell $300,000,000 gold bonds aud
put them in the treasury paying
three per cent interest, after clear
ing out the one hundred and forty
or fifty millions ounces of silver
bullion by selling them for gold, is
a utile to steep, mat would give
us a bigger surplus than we had at
the time the democratic party went
to war against us on tbe surplus
issue. He should draw it a trifle
milder. Journal.
The condition of the American
National bank of Omaha, which
closed its doors a few days ago, is
such as to warrant a statement by
the bank examiner that depositors
and creditors will be paid in full,
and there is even a strong proba
bility of the bank being reopened.
Two Indian pupils at the Genoa
training school were united in mar-
nage tbe otner day with imposing
ceremonies. Their Anglicized names
were Charles Kealear, a Sioux, and
Minnie O'Neil, a Shoshone. It was
the first wedding at the school.
Altgeld's argument in favor of
the Chicago anarchists plainly
shows that the only mistake of the
court was in not hanging those who
were sent to the penitentiary.
The Ohio prohibitionists will have
to pay their own expenses this year,
as the democrats can't be expected
to give them a cent in view of the
certainty of McKinley's re-election.
Comptroller Eckels1 idea that the
shareholders of broken national
banks should make good the losses
is logical and practical, and the
country will uphold him in enforc
ing it without favor or condition.
If Boies can't carry his state for
governor he can't do it for senator
and his refusal to accept the nomi
nation for governor again shows
that he thinks the republicans will
elect that official this year.
Money will be comparatively
cheap soon. The calling of the
extra session and the distribution in
trade channels of the money paid
out by the railroads on July 1, as
dividends will bring rates down.
A mass meeting of two thousand
people at Duluth gave Monsigncur
Satolli a unanimous invitation to
leave the JJnited States.
November in Ohio, Iowa, Massa
chusetts and Virginia. The con
tests urOhio and Iowa will be the
most interesting of them all. The
chances for republican success seem,
at this distance in time from the
election, highly favorable to the re
publicans in both states. As it is
understood that Gov. Russell will
not accept a nomination this year,
the republicans have a fair prospect
of success in Massahusetts also. He
is the strongest man in the demo
crat ranks in that state. In Vir
ginia the democrats will gain an
easy victory. The factional war
fare of the republican leaders in
that state has made it impossible
for the republican party, even with
the aid of the populists, to win any
victories. Globe-Democrat.
A good many of the independent
papers in the state, the editors of
which do not know the difference
between a writ of habeas corpus
and supoena, are verv severe in their
criticisms of the decision of the
supreme court in the impeachment
cases. They charge Justices Norval
and Post with being political par
tisans, and therefore cannot be
honest in their decision. But Chief
Justice Maxwell is all right in their
eyes, because he saw proper to dif
fer with a majority of the court.
There is nothing partisan about a
populist, if we are to "believe them.
Nobody can be honest and render
an honest decision, and express an
honest opinion, on any subject but
a populist. These self-righteous
cranks are the most "partisan" peo-
Ele on earth, and in their eyes every
ody else are boodlers, thieves and
robbers. Seward Blade. ,
Buffalo Bill for governor of Ne
braska is the latest thing in politics.
It is being talked in all seriousness.
Western people are fond of the
sensational in politics as in all
things else, and stranger things
have happened than that the world
renowned hero of the wild west
combination should yet be governor
of the state, over whose broad prair
ies he has wandered almost alone,
when the buffalo were it sole occu
pants in large portions of its domain.
That such an honor would be agree
able to him after having won fame
and fortune in his unique role is
unquestionable. If he should enter
the lists in a contest for the repub
lican nomination there is no doubt
but what he would present a most
formidable following. Kearney
Journal.
The simple truth of the business
is that Great Britain has taken one
more step, and a verv important
one, toward carrying out its settled
policy of forcing the world to a
gold standard. Early in the cent
ury, as soon, in fact, as its commer
cial supremacy, had given it finan
cial supremacy, and it became the
great creditor nation of the globe.
England set about securing the gold
standard. It has brought the en
tire German-speaking world into
line, and for twenty years has been
trying to bring the United States
down to it. Unless some great na
tion stands like a- rock against
monometallism England will tri
umph and gold will be the univer
sal standard of monetary measure
ment, and silver will be relegated to
the category of base metals and a
mere commodity. Inter Ocean.
The lack of confidence in the
present administration to handle
the country in its present financial
crisis, is doiug more to lock the
vaults of money owners than all
other agencies combined. With
confidence restored, there is no
reason why there should not be as
much money in circulation as there
was six months ago. The agitation
of free silver coinage, the govern
ment issue of irredeemable currency,
anu similar tneones, in opposition
to the theory of the administration,
together with a divided congress on
those questions, present a state of
unrest that daily imperils the pros
perity of every business in the land.

commenced she withdrew it from
the bank and put it in an old stove

" I'll tell yo u Liza, how it is.
You know wo'er gittin old.
We've went through lots of winters
' And 'twas storm, and sleet and cold ;
Why you can't be contented here
Durned if I understand.
Iu the first time in our long, long life
We've owned a foot uv land.
Now you ort to remembtr
This country yet is new.
But we have got a cleaned up farm
And good improvements too;
We've got a good sod shanty
And we've got a go d dep well,
And why you're so discouraged
I'll be dogged if I kin tell.
Yon know that back in Hoosier
It would storm and Mow and whizz,
And then you'd gruntand groan around
With cronirk roomatiz.
Then when the open spring would come
The ague 'twould come along,
. And then through all the hottest days
-You'd hear the chilly son?;
" And them nir buckbrush marshes
x 1 And ponds and shize and bogs,
r Why you couldn't sleep more'n half the
Sa : night
sH. Tur the terrible ring of frogs.
. Then think nr that heavy timber
How hard it was to move,
And the years and'ycarsit tmik us
A few akers to improve, v
And when the timber was all gone
The.job was but half through.
The stumps and roots was there yet
And the pesky skeeters too.
Then when you went to plowin
The buzzen bumblebee,
Would peck and punch 3011 full of holes
Uutil you couldn't see,
And when the crop is all put in
You'll stuff your pants with hay
And hang 'em up on top a stump
To keep the crows away;
And the redheads eats the cherries up,
The ground s-quirrel eats the corn.
Tho skunks and possoms takes the chick
And tho rats and mice the barn.
I know it, John, Wb'er gittin old,
Our days are Hearty gone,
IWe went through lots of chilly gales
But still kept living on.
But why should. we give up our home,
Our dear old Hoosier land,
To come and take this rotten claim,
This barren hills of sand?
It aint worth while to tell me, John,
This country yet is new,
For days and months and years, from
now
This language will be true,
The shanty 's good enough, 1 know,
But then you know its true,
The rattlesnakes git iu the walls,
And rats and rabbits too
I know that back in Hoosier
Twould storm, but then 'twould ruin
'Twould be a good deal better for us
If we could git the same.
Our beetle breezes, as you say.
Is naught but wind a'ud sand,
And then the r's heat and dust along,
And almost burns the land.
The marshy lands are gone now, John,
And there's where we should be ;
Lets' leave this awful desert, John,
Together you and me,
'And go where we can sit beside
"p -The bright and sparkling stream,
"And listen to tbe red birds song,
The jay and bluebirds theme;
Lets go where we'll have stovewood,

A Legacy to Cbarlestoa.
The bequest of the late John Thomson
to the city of Charleston of a residuary
estate, which it is estimated will amount
to a sum exceeding f 100,000 and possibly
twice as much, has naturally caused a
eood deal of talk around town, and the
talk in most instances resolves ltseii into
the question, "What shall wo do with
it?" It is no secret that Mr. Thomson at
one time intended to leave a handsome
legacy to the museum of tho College of
Charleston in fact, a will was made to
that effect but at seems that the pres
ent will was made subsequently to that.
The money is given to the city absolute
ly, which gives every citizen and tax-
. payer a right at least to express an opin
ion as to what tbe city council should do
with it. Charleston ftews.

The Treaty Witli BaHU.
The principal point of objection in the
proposed treaty with Russia is the ex
ceedingly loose definition of political of
fenses in article 3, which exposes a large
class of people who come to this country
for a refuge from political, social and
religious oppression to the malicious
machinations of a foreign power, which
affords no such guarantees of a fair and
just trial under the law as those which
constitute the chief pride and privilege
of the American people.
Standing as this nation does for uni
versal liberty and unman rights, we
stultify our own principles and deny our
own history when we deprive one worthy
refugee who has been persecuted out of
his native land of the guardianship of
our beneficent laws and the protection of
our courts, of justice. Under this treaty
the Russian government can come into
this country by means of its agents and
pursue any Russian whom it may see fit
to charge with an extraditable offense
and demand his immediate surrender,
even though he has become a fully natu
ralized American citizen. 2ew York
