FOR SUPERINTENDENT OK PUBLIC IN STRUCTION, GEORGE 13. LANE. "Labor day" was generally observed in the large cities yesterday. Surplus and Wah are too things Mr. Cleveland should never monkey with. Farmers should remember that there is now a tariff of 20 cents on wheat, which keeps out the Canadian and other foreign products, and that the democrats propose to remove this protection. Henri watterson and his 200,C00 with moss on their backs and the sweet fragrance of the blue grass pastures on their breath did it. McShane backed with 200,000 Kentuckians will run well in Omaha. JUTS I To read yesterday's Omaha dispatches about the democratic gubernational noui ination one would think the entire party was one on a spree. Hanrv Watterson! The wild eyed deciple of Cobden, who was going to march on Washington with his 200,000 unmasked, unarmed Kentuck ians, to inaugurate old Sammy Tilden, sends his special messenger to Nebraska to nominate John A. McShane for gov ernor; and why? Because the republi can state convention, which met in Lin coln the other day; "resolved" that it was good sound republican doctrine to submit the proposition to the people, as to whether they wanted to prohibit the sale of liquor in this state. Henri, if we are to credit the wires and Omaha papers, is not in favor of the people of this state having the privilege of voting on such an anti-democratic proposition. Henri doubts the qualifications of the great mass of republican and democratic electors in this state when it comes to voting on such a yital democratic ques tion; hence, Henri orders that the famous congressional sprinter, McShane, shall measure his strength with the old warior who hwlds aloft the banner of republi canism in Nebraska. The whole perfor mance is a burlesque on political horse sense and too rediculoua to seriously men tion. If the fool democrats of this state imagine they can elect the boodle con gressman from the city of Omaha to any office governor, congress, or anything else in the state or big first district, just let them trot him out. The republicans of this district are simply waiting to show Mr. McShane that they are through electing such men in this district; they ire simply waiting to snow him under with some 8000 majority and we rather guess Mr. McShane suspects the little November cyclone in waiting and keep ing especially for his case. Of course! Nominate John A. McShane and run him on the whisky issue; on a platform dis tinctively opposed to thejrepublican plan allowing the people to vote on any vital quest:cn effecting the public welfare and sej what a pounding he will get. If Mr. Watterson had the question of "submis sion," in his country he would probably know how to defeat it. The shot gun; the double bottomed ballot box; the democratic returning boards any one of these instruments would get away with "Submission" but here in Nebraska, where the people see no danger in the free ballot and in trusting to their own intelligence to vote correctly on any pro position, Mr. Watterson had better keep hands off. AND HE FLOP PSD. In his message to the senate of Febru ary 20, 1888, transmitting the Bayard Chamberlain treaty, the president said: " The treatment meets my approyal be cause I believe that it supplies a satisfac tory, practical and final adjustment, upon a basis honorable and just to both par ties of the difficult and vexed question to which it relates." This is a concession that the position of Canada was correct as to that pro vince's dispute with the United States. That Canada was justified in siezing Am erican fishing vessels and that the United States had no commercial rights in the Canadian harbors which it should pay for. Now, then, in his retalliatory flop the president assumes exactly the opposite position. Can the chief executive of this nation, after committing himself and his administration unreservedly to the reject ed treaty which conceded the Canadian demand, be now permitted to say to the advocates of the American claim in the fishery dispute that the American fisher men were right and Mr. Bayard and his treaty wrong? Will he be permitted to turn this somersault without incurring the contempt of all honest advocates of either side of the question? We rather guess not. It is no wonder his henchmen in the south stand dumb in the presence of the ridicule heaped upon him by Mr. Edmunds and his colleagues. MlltthlAINE ON THE PRESL DENT'S ERROR. In his article on "The President's Er ror," in The American Magazine for Sep tember, Mr. Blaine says: Strangely enongh the president neg lects, either from design or oversight, to notice what effect the serious reduction of the tariff would have on the 1,810,250 men employed in transportation, viz., on the railroads, coast-wise vessels, river steamers and barges, canal, wagon and fetagc lines. These varied ways of trans portation represent an investment of thousands of millions of dollars of American money and give employment to nearly two millions of men, whose earnings support nine millions of people. Whatever impairs American manufactur ing, strikes at the great transportation interests. Iron ore, admitted free from spain, coal admitted free from Nova Scotia, wool admitted free from Austra lia, all favor British ships at the expense of American railroads. The further the president goes in the direction direction of the doctrine laid down in his message, the more direct and the more deadly is the assault upon the whole or ganization of American industries. THE ASS AND THE S URPL US. An ass was once complaining of the great quantity of corn which ho had in his possession. "Why," he brayed, speaking to a horse, "I have much more corn than I know what to do with. My stable is filled with it, and it is liable to roll down and crush me to death. I am the most miserable ass in four states; listen to me bray." "Let us make a cursory examination of this dangerous surplus of corn which is threatening you," replied the horse. This being done it was found that there was but a very small quantity of corn, only enough to sus'ain the ass a short length of time, he having feeding on it and making a hog of self as usual. Divers persons passing by shortly after the expose of the ass's short ness on corn report that he looked ex tremely sick Moral: It is not necessary to put on your spectacles to see the striking resem blance between the fix lhi3 ass got into and the one the democratic party is in, the veraciwus anecdote having been con structed by the Author solely with this purpose in view. N. Y. Tribune. and very been him- T WO GERMANS' CLEVER TRICK. Several years ago a number of German workmen came to Connecticut by a pre concerted arrangement and obtained em ployment in the clock factories in New Haven, Ansonia, Waterbury, Thomaston, and Winsted. They worked steadily for a long time, applied themselves dilligent ly to mastering the science of clock-making, and became proficient in the art of handling the fine tools necessary to the work. Ttiey also purchased the tools and several of the complicated machines, and, returning to Germany, they also be gan the manufacture of clocks for them selves. They set up a factory in the Black forest region and their business now amounts, according to letters recent ly received here, to nearly 50,000 clocks a month. This German factory has proved a close competitor with the Con necticut concerns. Materials and labor are so much cheaper in Germany than in this country that they can beat us in the foreign markets and they are pushing their wares to the exclusion of the Yankees. New York Sun. Grover Cleveland's retalliation mes sage falls as flat as a wet dish rag on a curb stone. Mr. Edmunds says it puts him in mind of that Union general who was always calling for more men when the confederates came in sight. Democrats at headquarters admit that Mr. Cleveland's Fishery fulmination has only served to make hiac n rerediculous. The president does n to under stand or appreciate th c lack of cntel ligence he is banking is not in the people but in the White house. Tiie lie about General Harrison's atti tude toward the railroad strikers of eleven years ago hasn't legs enough to travel far. The men who manufactured it are known as worthless fellows at home; and in these days of telegraphs a reputation of that sort grows fast. t MiE democratic convention in session, last night, at Lincoln came near having the scarified warior from Kentucky with his 200,000 unarmed militia to aid in the nomination of a governor for Nebraska. It is said the advance guard arrived, in ths shape of a special internal revenue agent from the blue grass pastures. Just nine weeks from today the demo cratic party of this county will be trans lated from the enchanted garden of im agination, in which it now revels in vis ions of post offices and foreign missions, to the prosaic door yard of reality, where its sorrowing eyes will be confronted by appauing ngures, telling the end of its brief four years of "inning" and the be ginning of another twenty-five years of "outing." The Journal is not honest in its de sire to publish facts, and when pulled up and confronted with the truth which it has intentionally distorted, it either refuses to correct its statements stultifies itself by continued assertions of deliber ate falsehood, as it does in the Ammi down matter; asserting that Mr. Ani mi down had discharged American work men and imported cheap Hungarian la labor in the Passaic mills. Mr. Ammi down's agent states that such statement is wholly false : 1st, that none of the Passaic mills have ever imported Hun garian workmen. 2nd, that those working men employed by the mills at Passiac get xactly the same wafres that other mm similarly employed get. 3rd. that on 10T 1 - .1 T1 1 ... moms in me umenriouse mill in which Jr. Ammidown is interested there are 35 Hungarian weavers only. In the face of these facts the editor of the Journal recklessly asserts that this statement is a pretty complete admission of his very false charge, that Mr. Ammi down has discharged his American work men and imported cheap Hungarian. If the Journal man has any regard for the truth he fails to disclose it in 1 attempt to avoid the force of this expos ure of his desire to circulate campaign falsehoods. Now let that Journal state to the Irishmen of this city and county whether it published a falsehood about Levi P. Morton and the donations that gentleman made to the starving people of old Ireland ? Come ! face the music and don't dodge by again stutifying yourself as you have done in the Animi down matter. suggested It is an instructive fact, as by Gen. Harrison, that the democratic orators find it very difficult to arouse popular indignation against alleged ex cessive federal taxation, "because they air. Cleveland, in addition to his fishery message, has subscribed $10,000 towards electing himself. This shows the average democratic rustler that Grover Cleveland is not only a model civil service and revenue reformer but also, that lie is an eraminent statesman. As soon as that emminent literary office suck er, Mr. James Russell Lowell, learns of this disinterested stroke of statesmanship The J oumal publishes a very stupid tariff statement in last evening's issue entitled, "Frvin? the fat out " in ivhfoti the assertion is made that the duty on raw sugar is proposed to be reduced 35 per cent and on rice meal 25 per cent by the Mills bill, this is not true. By taking the official statement prepared by the ways and means committee, the reduction of duties upon sugar, estimated by de grees; does not exceed 17 per cent on any item and ayerages just 15.11 percent. The table prepared by the committee gives present rate and proposed rate with equiyalent advolorum per cent. The re duction on"rice, flour and meal," as wiv ...... . . ' ' en oy tne committee, is 5 per cent exact ly, on cleaned rice, 12.56 per cent; on uncleaned rice, 12.52 per cent "Frying the fat out" of mis statements could be avoided, by the Journal's using a little care in publishing false campaign state ments without examining them to ascer tain whether they are supported by any facts whatever. No republican papers have ever intimated that the duty was put up to 63 on sugar and 100 on rice and the readers of the Journal are intel ligent enough to know this much. Such misstatements wont do with the public. The republican papers and the people do criticise the Mills bill and the solid south ways and means committee, for leaving rice atlOO and sugar 66.83 per cent; being both products of southern planters, and putting wool, hemp, flax, vegetables and the products of the northern planters on the free list. Now then, does the Journal endorse this sectional feature of the Mills bill ? Your champion, Mr. Morrisey, of the World, and fair minded democrats generally have condemned it as palpably f . tin . . C J uuiair. vnat nas tne Journal to about it anyway. Table Talk for September another seasonable and entertaining number. Summer is dead and Mr. Whitton treats her demise with becoming solemnity in his opening poem; then follows a variety of household information the housewife cannot afford to lose; "New September Menus;" "Coffee and Coffee Making;" "Housekeepers' Work for September;" "New Things for Table and Kitchen" all by that famous authority on things culinary, Mrs. S. T. Rorer. And then her answer to "Housekeepers' Inquiries" this momth abound in instructive infor mation. Other articles in the number, very interesting, are Tillie May Forney's "Fashionable Luncheon and Tea Toilets," Our Cooking Club;" "A Dictionary of French Terms used in Menus;" "Septem ber Culinary Economies;" also a descrip- ive paper "Regarding the Peach." The literary portion of the magazine, too, is well sustained. In it are several original stories by able writers, together with the end of "Jonathan Easy's Difficulty." The Prize Problem Department, another .jr amacLive ieaiure, is kept up with skill and ingenuity. 00 a year, 10 cents a copy. Table Talk Publishing Co., 403, 404 & 406 Race street, Phila" delphia.

It is away above the balance of the ticket and while our jolly good natured townsman stands no chance for the money bags of the state when pitted against Capt. Hill, the Herald commits no crime in saying the democrats made a good nomination.

Dr. Doan was called, who at tended to her wounds and pronounced her in a serious condition. The dog was killed by one of her sons. 5'JACOBS oil For Stiffness St iflf Neck.
