Thibsday, Ai(iUST y, A strong pressure is being brought to bear on Gov. Crov: v for tlie reniovul of World's Fair Cou.,.:. . uer (iarneau. If one-lialf of w hat is reHrted apiii.st Mm is true be should liave been removed Ion;; ago. From a ol:iicul standioint a change should have been made last w inter, and his word goes to prove what has often been noticed, tliat holdover oltieials as a rule are failures. Ap- Kintive otlicials who are not ready and willing to step down and out when a 'hange in the power which put them in dice occurs, are not the kind of men to mke a success of a public undertaking. Every citizen of Sioux county is in duty bound to help cany the agricul tural society to success. The first step is to attend the meeting at the court house on August 12th. Tell your friends in the east who are paying high cash rent for land and have had a short crop or a failure to c-on,e to Sioux county and see what they can get on laud for which they will have to pay no rent. The pop convention will be held at Lincoln on September 5th and there will be S66 delegates. Of course no pop would ride on a railroad pass so that the freight paid by the delegates will be quite an item. The governor of Colorado got mad and thumped a reporter a few days ago. Wonder if that is the way he expects to collect enough human gore so that he may ride through the crimson Hood up to the bits of his horse's bridle, as he ex pressed his intention of doing if a free silver law was not passed. fi e legal suits growing out of the ic-w freight law are somewhat amusing. The attornevs of the B. it M. went into he United States court and obtained a miin ary injunction to prevent the state otlicials from putting down rates ana he business men of Lincoln by their at orney have gone into the district court and obtained a like order to prevent the B. & M. and Missouri Pacilie railroads from raising the rates. The new law is said to le very much against the inter ests of the wholesale business of Lincoln and of much benefit to those of Omaha nd as a result the two cities will likely I . .1 A 1U. 1 1 inaUe a liglll tor anu against me m unu the re-t of the state can wait for the re- ult. The trial of the case in the feder al court will be for life or death of the rate law and will be of a great deal of interest. A brutal hobo killed an old man in Denver a few days ago over the price of a glass of beer. A large crowd gathered and after two hours hard work forced an entrance to the jail and took the tiend out and hung him to a tree and filled his body full of bullets. It was no more than he deserved. The war cloud which was hanging over France and Siam has been cleared by the latter government having acced ed to the demands of the former. Na tions do not rush into war as readily as they did a few decades ago. A war now means the sacrifice of mill ions of men and money, and diplomacy is fast taking the place of force. Secretary Morton made a strong ap peal to the farmers when he said: "The Jranite Mountain Mining Company pro- uced refined silver in the year 187, or 18sS. according to its report to the secre- ary of the treasury, to the amount of nearly 3,000,000 ounces, at a cost for re- ned silver of 12 cents an ounce. The whole output cost that year was $36,800. Coined at 412 grains to the dollar, it would make over $3,000,000 of legal tender for over 3,000,000 bushels of wheat, the labor cost of which is more than if 3,000,000. That is, by free coin- e, under law, $36,800 of mine labor is made and forced to an equality with $3,000,000 of farm-labor cost. By law this free-coined silver will, when it rep resents only $36,800 of mine labor in Montana, be made exchangeable for $3,000,000 farm labor in Nebraska. Farm and Fireside. The capitalists of Colorado who have raised such a row to gel the government to pay them an inflated price for the product of their silver mines and in or der to further their interests have dis charged thousands of men who are now without the means of support have be come alarmed lest these men take it into their heads to take forcible poses sion of tlie banks of the cities in order to get tlte funds needed to supply them and their families with the necessaries of life. A lot of hungry, idle men with families to provide for is not a pleasant thing to have in a community. On next Monday congress will convene in extra session' and it will not be long nntil the party in power will make known, to some extent, at least, what its policy will be. President Cleveland was elected on a platform favoring free trade and tlie repeal of the tax on state lenk notes. If lie and his party intend to pass laws to bring about such things, manufacturers and business men will trim their sails to meet the storm which would certainly follow, but if, on the tut her hand, the administration shows that it is not going to inaugurate free trade and wild-cu banking, business ac tivity will be renewed at once for people lave full confidence in what ha"? been 1tt are afraid of what is proposed. The adtoeates of free silver fortve pretty bard not to erack in the agree ment of the wholesale merchant not to accept the checks of their customers in payment of bills. The merchants of va rious towns have notified those houses tliat they will buy goods in cities- where , m sticb rwle vtm force. That does very teHv but how wohW such a thing work internationally? Suppose the marrafac tersof tin plate in the oW country Notify their customers in the United States-that they will accept nothing but in payment for their goods.

The reports from the commercial agencies and other sources are that the financial trouble is about past. The gold is coming back from Europe in large quantities and the banks have for tified themselves and are ready to meet any demands which may be made upon them and the masses of the people have come to the conclusion that their cash is safer in the banks than it would be in a stocking leg and most of the funds have been returned to the proper channels and are again coursing through the arteries of trade. The retail merchants through out the country, with the exception of those in districts where mining opera tions have been suspended or crops have failed, report business as good as it was at this season last year, so that taking all things into consideration there is great reason for the country to feel re lief over the lact that ttiere was really nothing to get scared about.

A good deal of talk is being indulged n by some of the advocates of free silver for the United States to declare indepen dence of the bank of England. It sounds very nice and doubtless stirs up a good deal of feeling favoring such action. To declare and maintain independence of a foreign nation in a political way was all right and comparatively easy, but to dec lare commercial independence is quite another tiling. To do so is to say that this nation does not want to have any dealings with foreign nations. That its people will use what it produces and do without what it doM not produce. The iresent administration was electeit on a free trade platform. That cannot be and the country declare itself independ ent of the bank of England or that of any other country for people will buy and sell where they can do the best unless pro fited and the only way to do that is for the government to impose an import ana export tariff heavy enough to make it prohibitive. The unwritten laws 01 commerce are much harder to change than the statutes and talk about being commercially independent of foreign nations is all sentiment and no sense. Notice, for Publication.
