It Is altogether probable that the question
of who shall be postmaster at O'Neill will be
determined at a popular election. There
appears to be a conflict of local judg
ment In the mutter of recommending a man
for the appointment and when the patrons
are unable to get together on the lHsue It Is
often left to a popular election.
The above extract is from the Omaha
>Bee of yesterday. We think a popular
vote would he the proper way to settle
(this question, as the man who should
Receive endorsement at the polls would
hP entitled to the office by virtue of his
popularity. JUel uS VOtfl.'
More than one thousand men are now
at work on the manmotb manufacturers
building for the World’s Fair. The
force was recently doubled by order of
the exposition authorities, who con
cluded that the contractor was not
making as rapid progress as was desii
able. The authorities are determined
that all of the buildings shall be com
pleted in time for dedication in October,
and the public may be asanrrsd that
this will be done. The total number of
workmen at Jackson Park now exceeds
7,000. It will probably be increased to
10.000 or more._
O’Neill sports have had considerable
food for conversation the past week, all
on account of a colored foot racer who
has been making this place his head
quarters and spoiling for a race all the
time. Kid King was matched against
him for two races, neither of which he
won, and then the Atkinson boys
brought down a ringer, who by the way
is supposed to be in cahoots with the
coon, and trotted the African a pretty
75-yard heat for a supposed purse of
•35Q. The white man proved to be a
race horse and little bow-legged woolly
head Atricanus was not in it. Very
little • ‘dough" changed hands.

From England.
The following communication to the
Lewiston, (Me.,) Journal is from an
Englishman who has become thoroughly
Americanized and is not afraid to ex
press his opinions in the face of an ad
verse sentiment in his own country:
' - Oxronu. Emi„ JuiiuS.
England Is not a little moved at laird ShIh
bury’s unexpected speech at Hustings. It
whs a blow at u national bobby which this
country bas been nursing In national Isola
tion and which her subjects have telt It their
duty to defend at 6very opportunity. X have
been ultacked oncall sides both In Scotland
and England because of our tariff. It Is al
most the first subject an Englishman sug
gests to un American, but to differ from him
Is to Inflame him, to argue with him Is to
make htm mad, when he Is drawn Into a
corner and cannot reply to the arguments
and answer satisfactorily to the questions,
he at once says, "The turllf Is a purely selfish
measure, America having had every resource
and In an unlimited quuntlty. dons not care
for the outside world. She legislates for her
self,” but when lie Is asked to state when
England made a law solely for the
benefit of America or any other nation he U
dum.
To say England Is sour, Is stating it lightly,
and has she not reason? There hus been an
enormous falling off in her exports. The
British Board of Trade returns for the
mouth of April show un actual decline of
exports to the amount of JKf,000,000, and while
our exports during the last twelve mouths
have Increased lfi.40 per cent., the British
exports have decreased 5.7 percent. They
see in our tariff the building up of great
national Industries, In our reciprocity treat
ies the loosing of the Latin states which Brit
ish statesmen for well nigh half a century
have struggled for. More than that, our
greut country which was the market of Mau
ohester, Sheffield and Birmingham, is well
nigh closed to them and they are not able to
compete with us In many of the markets of
the world which they formerly monopolized.
They have been driven to test that which
has been their pride and boast. It has taken
them about a half a century to discover how
lamentably deficient Is their free trade
theory. Muny of her most far-seeing people
have become restless and are clamoring for
a change so that when the Tory leader spoke
lie was voicing the sentiment of a multitude
rapidly Increasing. A change must oorne,
for the condition of the mechanic and the
laboring class In general Is growing worse;
she has rightly been called a “nation of
paupers.” 1 have visited nearly every
country Europe,and nowhere bas such suffer
ing been seen as In England. I was In the
manufacturing districts last year when the
“McKinley bill" became a law; at once mUls
weje shut down and thousands were without
emplovment, subscriptions were solicited for
the suffering; what with their small wages,
much drink, large families and the Inherited
tradition that “to save Is only for the rich,"
the moment work ceases their poverty and
suffering begins.
Lord Salsbury has suggested a retaliation !
but we fortunately are so situated that no
tariff that England dares adopt could vdfy
much Injure us, as It Is mostly raw material
they Import from us; to keep that from the
country would bo “punishing themselves,”
us he has suggested. But amid their dark
outlook they think they see a ray of light,
may It be false, viz: That there will be a
change In adminkitratlon at the next election
and doubtless there will be as big a barrel
spilt accrots tbe Alantic to aid as was sent
for the Cleveland-caiupalgu eight years ago.
England has stood by the democratic party
always. Why? To help Americans? The
answer Is clear: British trade Is to be pro
moted by democratic success In America.
8he would crush us If she could only stand
- . . ' . ■- . /. / ■ '
upon our bonus uiIntrant of ooimnorcu. What
her statesmen know I* that the democratic
pkrty Ik iin-Amerloan, that they would repeal
her laws of protection which would lie cut*

nervo of every Industry nod would cut like i
ik worm luto our commerce until the tree,

lent, he nominated, and hy misfortune el col
l'd, Bnwland would make him a saint and pos- ’
dbly canonise him.
The very fae.t England sympathises with
and aids tho free trade party would make
me at raid of It and dealro protection on the i
principle: Find nut what your ouomy Is ,
anxious thnt you should do then do Just tho
opposite. Don't forwet tho dark days of our
divided Vinton. Where wits England then?
Just where she Is today, on the side thnt
would crush out the lire of those Institutions
which were our pride and which had the
promise of a future we , are liewlnnlnw to
realise.

to what country or where will the frtje trade
party point for an example of tho siicuess of
tholr visionary theoryf If Ion* a*o they
had, without prejudice, studied Its workings
horo they would have sun* a far different
song.
These strong expressions may seem
strange, coming from one burn In this Island
but fortunately I have had a political second
birth. You have heard the story of the boy
who, having some small pups for sale, knock
ed at a door and asked if they dostrad any.
He was asked the kind, to which tho boy re
plied, "Methodist pups," "No," said the
man at the door, "I do not want nny of those
harking creatures," Crest-fullcn tho boy
retreated, A few days lator bo returned
and asked the safne question,' Want to buy
some pups, sir?" "Wliut kind are tliesoV”
said tbo mini, at tbe same time looking Into
tho basket. "These, sir. arc Kplsoopul pups."
"But arc they not the same as you brought
tho other day?" "Yes sir," was the reply,
“hut they have their eyes open now."
My eyes have boon opened.
