When ever anything of importance occurs it is bound to be connected with it someway. But it looked as if the 1 sir ship was going to pass us up and not allow the citizens oi one of the best towns in the state to gase on its beauty. But it didn’t. It is true that it visited several othei vicinities before shedding its lumi nous light on O’Neill, but as it is said that the first shall be last and the last shall be first, we ere satis fied. Any ettisen of O’Neill ean now hold hie head proudly erect and be happy, fully convinced of the fad that he resides in one of the favored i,' ; 1 ' The luminary ( f) down the street says the election of Gillespie was a great silver victory. Charley should look at the vote oast for Bryan in O’Neill last fall and he may change his mind. --—»*•<_• The civil service rales as manipu lated by Mr. Cleveland have been getting some hard thumps in Con gress, and they are likely to get more of the same sort, whether the joint resolution offered by Congress man Corliss, of Mich., to repeal all the Cleveland extensions, be adopted or not. It is not strange that the foreign ministers at Washington should be agitated over the Dingley bill. We cannot take back the trade the Wil son bill presented to foreign coun tries without injuring those countries more or less, but we must have that trade in order that our idle men may be put to work. It must have been noted by care ful observers that republican sena tors have not been abusing the Dingley tariff bill, although it might be supposed from reading a certain class of newspapers that they were all opposed to it. The republican senators are all right; it’s the oppo sition newspapers that are not. A new West Virginia corporation, known as the Olen Lincoln Coal and Coke oompany, is owned and man aged exclusively by colored men. It owns 200 acres of coal land and has 2,000 acres under lease. The stockholders are mostly, practical miners, and the constitution of the company prohibits the sale of its stock to a white man. Mb. Bailey, of Texas, leader of the democratic minority in the national house of representatives, refuses to don at any time a swallow tail coat or a stovepipe hat. The southern representative insists on wearing on all accasions a black frock coat, a white lawn necktie, diamond studs and a Mexican som brero. This is rather a queer lay out in the way of raiment, but it is certainly superior in some respects to the old-time Georgia major's noted costume, which consisted simply of a shirt collar and a pair of spurs.—Inter Ocean. Notwithstanding the fall of Fin greeism in Detroit, Miohigan gave a republican majority of 40,000 in her judicial election on Monday, which is .about up to the McKinley mark. This majority came from the farm ers. The cities and towns were about a stand off between republi canism and fusionism. The farm ers of the country are intrinsically sound, and where not rattled by local disasters stand firm for honesty and common sense in the adminis tration of economic and monetary affairs. In Nebraska, after the return of normal conditions, the farmers will resfue us from the mis government into which the fusion folly has plunged the state. They may leave the reservation in bad times, but they dome baok, good enough Indians, in the end.—Lin coln Journal. No ACO0BATE list of new laws passed by the late legislatnre has yet been published. The free and easy manner in which the records were kept has made it impossible to tell with perfect accuracy just what was done. Some of the billB have been reported to the governor with wrong numbers attached, and some bills that were not passed were sent to him for his signature. In due time the blunders will be straight ened out, but in some cases not until the courts have been called upon to decide knotty points. It is safe to say that all of the bills passed by the clerks without the active co operation of a constitutional majority of the regularly elected members will be thrown out as of no force and effect, but what will become of a lot of botched bills nobody can tell at present—State Journal TO PROMOTE BIMETALLISM. The president tonight announced the appointment of Senator Edward O. Wolcott, of Colorado, Hon. Chaa. J. Payne, of Boston, and ex-Vice President Adlai E. Stevenson as commissioners to an international monetary conference. These ap pointments were made under the act approved March 3 last, “for the pro motion of an international agreement for bimetallism,” and by its pro visions do not require confimation by the senate. It has been generally conceded that Senator Wolcott would be made a member of the commission. He has been an active leader in the movement for a monetary agreement and widely known os an advocate of the silver cause. His trip to Europe recently was generally conceded to be at least semi-official as the repre sentative of the new administration. His tour extended over several months and embraced the leading European capitals. He had audi ences with the more noted financiers and ministers and it is believed then laid the foundations for the inter national conference which the com mission appointed tonight will en deavor to bring to a conclusion. Senator Wolsolt is now serving his second term in the senate, having been elected to that body in 1885. While a pronounced bimetallist, he was a staunch supporter of the St. Louis ticket. Ex-Vice President Stevenson, the democratic member of the commis sion, though generally known as an advocate of bimetallism, was a staunch supporter of Mr. Bryan and the Chicago platform. He and Senator Wolcott, however, are said to be in accord on the money ques tion. General Charles S, Payne, who may be termed the minority member, is a republican and was a McKinley man. He is one of the most promi nent business men of Massachusetts and is said to be a deep student of the financial question. While he is classed as a supporter of bimetallism based on international agreement, he is regprded as allied with the sound money faction. He is a graduate of Harvard, being a member of the class of *53. General Payne is largely identified with railroads and other corporations, being a director of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad and other large concerns, and a director of the Boston Insti tute of Technology; was an intimate friend and associate of Prof. Walker, the financial author and authority. He is a man of large wealth and probably better known to the public at large as one of the syndicate of gentlemen who built the cup-defend ing yachts Puritan, Mayflower and Volunteer. It is a faot not generally known that General Payne accom panied Senator Wolcott on his European trip and assisted him in that work. It is believed that he went abroad with Senatpr Wolcott with the understanding that he was to be made a member of the com mission. It is not yet known when the com missioners will meet and organize. When an organization is effected, however, it is believed that Senator Wolcott will be president. It is authoritatively stated that the com missioners will not go abroad before May 1, by which time the new am bassadors will be at their posts and render the special envoys the assist ance necessary in the consumation of their mission.—Bee, April 13.
