The unnoiincemeiit of the cut caused some consternation ninoii the Oninlia-Chicago lines and it was freely predicted that the o-cent rate of the Port Arthur route would not last thirty days, On the other hand, the irtlieinls of the enterprising north and south line declare that the cheap rate is in and Is in to stay and that in a very few days some of the ChiciiKo linns will learn to their cost how much live stock can lie iliverli'il lo lli" South Omaha market by a cheap rate.

Tho theory that the price of silver bore a clbso re lation to the price of wheat seemed to be destroyed for a timo, but when it is considered that conditions, production and speculation combined to force one op and the other down, It still appears that the theory is tenable. The corner has practically been broken, tho fear of a protracted war has subsided, the crop prospects for 1808 are flattering, and 4ho price of wheat Is going down rapidly as it went up. Tho speculative price dropped from f 1.50 per bushel to f 1.00 per bushel in one day and has declined steadily ever since. Actual wheat sold at one time last month in Nebraska for f 1.15; it Is worth now from seventy to seventy-live cents. On the other hand silver is advancing. Kpnin is in the markot for wheat; she is ulso in the market for silver. Tho two are again Hearing each other in price, There have been many fluctuations in tho jirieo of these two articles In past years auil on eacli occasion the gold bug press has hastened to call attention to tho differ ence, but that difference has over been temporary. History repeats itself und the link between wheat and silver is still apparent to the student of economic conditions. IKIIKKH WlllwlT lOII.NKK IIKOKKN Joseph Loiter, the young Chicago mil lionaire who cornered tho wheat market this spring and forced the speculative price to l? 1.50 and the cash price far above the real value has lost control and Incidentally abnut one million dol lars, His vast holdings of wheat havo been seized to protect his creditors and tho market is again in a normal condi tion. July wheat closed Tuesday on tho Chicago market at 77!i cents, and wheat for September delivery at 70 1-8 cents, Har silver is quoted in New York at 58 cents per ounce, an advance of one-half ceut. History is repeating itself. no; MoviNo rowr u. Promptly following the passage of tho f 100,000, 000 bond bill troops weie started from Tampa, Florida, for fo livasiou of Culm. 1 5,000 men in thirty two vessels, guarded by a formidable fleet of cruisers and torpedo boats are on tho way to join Sampson at, Santi ago and the indications are that the Spanish llect nnd garrisou at that place will soon be attacked from land and sen. There is little doubt of the ulti mate result although a battalion which was landed from Sampson's fleet a few- days ago has had sharp fighting tliy and night ever since landing. They haWtSum's boys must gel, together, then been foreed to throw up earthworks ami leepon their arms, and have lost a a feV men. The second expedition left Sun Francisco yesterday wlii .'1,500 men for Powey's relief. This sudden ac tivity in the war department leads to the conclusion that the war will bo pushed vigorously from now on and there is room for a well grounded sus picion that the passage of the bond bill had something to do with it.

Tim address was plain and easy with no effort to show off scholar ship, up to date mid practical. Greece and Koine ith all their great men slept through tho whole discourse. The I 'nited States supreme judge got a touch as well as the Spaniards. It was not the gold standard that car ried Oregon in her Into vig ion. It was the promise of reform iunr then tho re formers did not reform, that avus the trouble. When the boars cumnout of the woods and tore the naughty boys In pieces it ought to havo been a warning to all other boys to look out for bears, Il means something to promise reform at least I he voters think it ought to mean something. Wo do not like the Hill Dech and Sain Klder kind id movements that are now being made in some localities, ft is the keep apart policy. Those who want re form more than anything else, show a disposition to get together but there is a class who choose to be a big toad in a small puddle rather than a small toad in a big puddle. Ueiorin has no weight with them. It would be nonsense to tackle a Spanish nrm.y single handed. pitch in. We fused in I'iTid und the republican party was the outcome. Four years later Abe Lincoln was made president. Yes wo fused then, prohibitionists, aboli tionists, free soilers, wooley heads and barnburners. Tilings went well till the old parties murdered Lincoln. We are for fusion this year und next. Wheat and silver are together again. They would not have separated but Joe Letter got bet ween.

It has became quits tho faslwiu to be little the Cuban insurgents, slur them a fighters, cipher down the number of olTeetivo men rallying nrohnd the Insur gent leaders, or chiefs as some choose to dill tlii111, and rldivulo the pretensions of the Cubans to tho possession of armies capable of rendering very material aid in driving the Spaniards out ol Cuba. Some of the unfriends of Cuba, who would have us turn tho war into one of conquest, would have us believe that the Cubans iiuiuIst no more than !4,o00 fighting men. If so those 2,500 light ing men must be marvellous fighters to havo succeeded not only in keeping 200,000 Spanish troops at bay but in expelling the Spaniards from tho eastern end of Cuba and two-thirds of its surface save from a few scattered soocoust towns, and in over-running tho balance of the island. Whatever may bo said of tho Cuban insurgents it is a fact that for three years they withstood nil t he power of t lie Spanish monarchy exerted to crush them, that during throe years of si niggle they have gained mri. lost, and that they have narrowed down the tutwns and positions held by tho Spaniards in spite of the fact that at one time Spain had ia the island 200,000 troops to oppose them, It may well bo that tho power of this army was much curtailed by the corruption and pecula tion of tho otlluers which led to chronic suffering and want, of food and clothing among the troops thereby sapping their vitality, destroying their mural, if they ever had any, but lot it be remembered that it is this same army which tho (,'u bans faced for three years that now faces the coast to oppose tho landing of American troops and before which wo deem it wise to hold back until landing can be made in much force, The Ameri can. THF JFDfjr: IS KINO. The government by injunction is the most absolute despotism and tho most ilugruut usurpation known to organized society. The power of the federal judges ns constructed by themselves, Is greater than the constitution or the funda mental rights of men. It suspends the freedom of sisiech and of the prccs. It destroys individual liberty, It exceeds in pretension and in performance the ex ploded doctrine of the devino right of kings. No greater menace to our liber tics could be devised than the federal judge's arbitrary assumption of omnip otence and infallibility. Ohio News. LAP.OU'S VAIN APPEAL. Labor is whining around in congress with a lot of petitions to its masters to give it a crumb of legislation. The votes ot the workers made this Congress, yet, their pitiable npienlsarc contemptuous ly ignored. When smooth and wise labor catches onto its power it will not go to congress with either a petition or a demand. Congress will listen with both ears for the tenor of labor's wishes. Now it bows to capital, simply because capital, working through the ignorance of the enfranchised, makes congressmen and legislation. Coming Nation (Lus kin, Tcnti.)
