Rkfokm by any other name would smell as loud. Mu. IIann'A is doubtless concocting some schema to ruin Europe. NEKLY fifty naval vessels are under construction in American dock yards, including a number for foreign powers. TnE resignation of Secretary Alger will be a great disappointment to the popocratic editors of the country. They will be obliged to get a new target. The Evening Po&t insists that C. S. Polk is a candidate for district judge. It seems the matter has gone so far that one can say he is at loast in the hands of his enemies. It is not known that George Wash ington assassinated any of his com .manding generals. It is about time to call the parallel between Washington and Aguinaldo on error of judgment. It seems that Ilolcomb got a mort gage on the state during his terms of office and was foreclosing it when He was relieved. He succeeded in mak ing a very ugly rent in the treasury. It will not tako the untutored Fili pino many moons to discover that the American dollar is for some reason or other worth twice as much ns the Spanish dollar which ho has been using. IIolcomb drew from the 6tato about $.-0 per month for rent and paid out $I0 for rent and made his own repairs. We presume the other $20 per month went for repairs of fusion fences and private hedges. The Chattanooga Times advices Mr. Bryan to either speak lwaor-'cTso got him a new speQchr" ?.ir. Bryan hasn't ratuHl--tJiaT sieech vet "explaining- about all those Nebraska mortgages being cancelled, regardless of the re jection of free silver. It IS too bud there is not a brand of democracy which c:m be recognized as genuine without having the name burnt in tho cork. It is difficult for the ordinary democrat of Chicago to determine whether Altgeld or Har rison represents the puro sniff, and Bryan is unable to help him out. FUSION leaders have been shouting themselves hoarso over tho alleged misconduct of certain members of the supremo court, and have contended that tbe investigation showed the pop office-holders to be examples of purity. They are singing very low just now, waiting for Ilolcomb to tell how it was, and occasionally hissing, Simon traitor I The wicked Dingley tariff is work ing havoc. In the fiscal year just closed aH the countries of the world, with the exception of four which re duced their imports of breadstuff-, largely increased their purchases in the United States The sales of man ufactured articles to all parts of the world has been beyond all precedent. Democratic leaders have gotten be yond trying to "explain." If Mr. Porter is as innocent of the rottenness that has lately been un earthed by the Prout committee as he pretends, why don't he appear before tho committee and give in his testi mony? Last fall he proclaimed from the stump through the state tho many hundreds of thousands of dollars that 'I saved the state. " It will now be in order for Mr. Porter to come forward and explain the transmission of ballots by tho under-ground system. The statistics regarding the casual ties in the Philippines are very inter esting and show the First Nebraska to have suffered the greatest of any vol unteer regiment, with the Twentioth Kansas as a close second. In the First regiment there wero twenty-six killed in action; died from disease, twenty one; died from wounds, twelve, total, fifty-nine. One hundred and eighty two were wounded. The boys wero always in the thickost of the light and are receiving much praise for their bravery. The New York Journal has again demanded of tho president that he epei.k out and announce a definite policy concerning the Philippinos.and the Cincinnati Enquirer joins in the echo. Yet both of these yellow 6beeta know that the presidont has no author ity to announco a permanent policy which this country shall assume toward any of the territory acquired from Spain. Tn"ia prerogative lies solely with congress and these papers well know it, but they count on deceiving people who may not know. They would create the impression, and they intimate, that the president lacks backbone, and that he is afraid to de clare a purpose toward the Philip pines. It is simply an attempt to make political capital by assuming ' that everybody believos the president has the right to establish a permanent government in the islands, but that he wants the courage to exercise it. It is, indeed, a deplorable state of affairs when the loaders of a great political party cannot get together and all put their feet under the same banquettine table. Mayor Harrison insists that if Mr. Bryan will not dis approve of the Altgeld brand of demo cracy he will. This action on the part of Mr. Harrison is to be commended. He has the couraee of his convictions, while Mr. Bryan is willing to forego principal, and to mix up with most aoy sort of a job-lot of pol itical outlaws in order to get an opportunity to make a speech. INFORMATION AND OPINION. San Francisco has raised some $35, 500 of the desired $50,000 for a monu ment to Admiral Uewoy to be set up in that city. Now it a3ks tho rest of the slate of California to come in and help make up the fund. - According to the report of railway statistics for 1S'J8, one's chances of being injured in a railway accident are one in 170,141, and of being killed are "one in 2,267,270. Most people are willing to take tho chances. President Tucker of Dartmouth is a believer in newspapers. "J. do not," ho says, "accept the idealized state ment of Lord llosobery, who would eliminate tho editorial page from the newspapo-. When the journalist has the truth of the fact in his possession and has givou it to us his professional work has just begun.

It was surprised near tho shore by some local fishermen, who managed to take it by tangling it up in an old shrimp not Its vitality was so groat thrit it lived for ."0 hours after capture. Tho idea of tackling a ton of live'y whale with a shrimp net does nrt in the least impress its ciptors, who, say o our correspondent, "would go, for a st a serpent with a half inch rope."

Internal Revenue Collector Iloltz is after the concessionaires at the expo sition. Commir-t-ioner Wilson has ruled that the shows are subject to a special tax and tho local revenue men are appraising the amount of tax that it is proper for each to pay. Last year the shows escaped the clutches of the government, but the decision of lart year has been reversed, and all exhibit'ons charging a special foe will have to pay the internal revenue tax. The Greater American Exposition has already complied with the law. This tax, however, is not sufficient to cover separate exhibitions where another fee is charged tho public for admis sion. In order to escape this tax they would have to be under the direct su pervision of tho managers of the ex position, which is not the case. The tax will vary from to $100. ' California is going to exhibit 20,000 bottles of its wine at Paris,just to show the Parisians that there are oilier vineyards than those of France. According to the Chinese method of criminal prosecution a man is respon sible for the crime ho may have com mitted personally, but if he chooses to escape justice by running away from the place where tho deed was com mitted then the remaining members of his immediato family are held and punished in lieu of the real culprit. This may seem a strange way of at tracting the real criminal back to the scene of his crime, but it has proved quite successful, because- it appeals lo the religious sido of the man's super stitious nature. According to their religion tho man who forsakes hig par ents when in peril will find his soul sailing around through hades without chart or compass for all eternity. In view of this, compliance with tho law is very prompt, for John Chinaman does not care to tako tho desperate chanco. Tho most costly and precious wine in tho world is that contained in a onwk nainpd tho Rose, in tho Ilrpmpn Town Hall collars. This Rudosheim, ol the vintage oi tno year (.3, ia of the color of old alo and has a wonder ful aroma. It is never sold, but is used exclusively for the sick of Bre men, the only exceptions having been when a small hottlo was presented to Emperor William I., another to Fred erick III, and one to Prince Bismarck. The supposed money value of this wine 19 something beyond credence, but, as it is never sold, this detail is of slight importance. Old as it is, it is improbable that any but connois seurs could get it down, as tho taste is something terrific. Mount McKinley, Alaska, 125 miles to the north of Cook's Inlet, according to measurements made by the United States Geological survey, is 20,434 fet high, or 2,440 feet higher than Mt. 3t.

Municipal Oorvtamwit Beln E(tabla!x.4. and All la TTorklft AdmrJWbly Sontjr ern Porta of Luzon Baing Opanad to Trade The Only Hope of Xaaurgeat Leadera. WASHINGTON, July 19. The state department yesterday received from the Philippine commission an import ant dispatch conveying these facts: By the co-operation of the military, municipal governments have been es tablished in seven important towns In the provinces of Manila and Cavite. These are working admirably and one good effect of them is that consider able numbers of the insurgents are constantly deserting and coming In, some of them with arms. The system will soon be extended to other towns which are asking for it. Continued success In this direction will mean the beginning of the end. The com missioners state that the general situ ation as described in the message of General Otis, June 26, except that a number of ports in the southern part of Luzon, in Leyte and other islands to the south have since been opened to trade. Dispatches from Dr. Schur man on his return from his trip through the southern part of the arch ipelago were of the same purport. A disposition to accept American sov ereignty and to welcome our troops was everywhere manifested. The report of General Otis of the 2Cth of June referred to by Commis sioner Denby in the above dispatch stated that as a consequence of the rainy season little island campaigning was now possible in Luzon. We oc cupy, said General Otis, a large por tion of the Tagalog country. The lines stretch from Imus on the south, to San Fernando on the north, nearly sixty miles, and eastward into the Lacuna province. The insurgent armies have suffered great losses and are scattered. The only large force which holds together is about 4,000 in Tarlac province and northern Pam panga. There are scattered forces in bands of fifty and 500 in other parts of Luzon, Cavite and Batangas provinces. They could possibly assemble 2,000. They are demoralized from recent de feat. The most of the people are ter rorized by the insurgent soldiers, but desire peace and American protection. They no longer flee from our troopB unless forced by insurgents, but glad ly welcome them. There has been no recent burning of towns. The popula tion within our lines has become dense, taking up land cultivation chiefly. They are kept out of Manila as much as possible, as the city popu lation was becoming too great to be cared for. The only hope of the insurgent leaders is in aid from the United States. This in the influence which enables them to hold out Much con tention prevails among them and no civil government remains. The trade with ports not in our possession, the former source of insurgent revenues, is now interdicted. ,r A Ulg KuHti.for Sheep Lands. OMAHA, July 19. The business of the Union Pacific land department has been largely increased within a short time past and the principal reason for this augmentation assigned by the Officials of the department of the in terior forbidding sheepmen permission to feed their flocks on the Uintah, Wyoming, forest reserve, which, prior to this order, had furnished an abun dance of grazing for the extensive sheep interests in that section of Wyo ming. In order to furnish feed for their flocks now the sheep owners have of necessity been compelled to secure suitable range and the lands in the region of Summit. Weber, Mor gan and Rich counties, Utah, and Uin tah county, Wyoming, controlled by the Union Pacific land department, have been strictly in demand. At to Peace Negotiations. WASHINGTON. July 18. A cable from Colonel Denby, a member of the Philippine commission, was read at the cabinet meeting yesterday. It showed a fairly satisfactory state of affairs, one of the cabinet officers said, but It did not say that peace negotia tions with Aguinaldo were In prog ress. Secretary Hay also had a cable from Ambassador Choate relative to the boundary line negotiations, but it was not encouraging. Throwing off the Tagal Yoke. MANILA, July 19. Tiie natives of the provinces of Albay, South Camar Ines and North Camarines are endea voring to throw off the domination of the Tagals. ; It is reported that there has been fighting between the people of the provinces named and small bands of Tagals who were quartered upon them running the local governments.

Stone of Missouri will call to order the democratic national committee at 10 o'clock this morning in the Herman house. The democrats gathered here rxpect to be busy with question of political mo ment durlnp the whole oi the day. William Jennings Bryan will proba bly sit ns a committeeman, arrange ments having been made to furnish him with a proxy. John P. Altgeld holds the proxy of William H. White of Wanhington. His presence in the committee may cause trouble, for it Is believed that Thomas Gahan. member of the committee from Illinois, may question Mr. Altgeld's right to represent a democratic com mittee man. Apparently Mr. Altgeld is desirous of avoiding trouble.
