I The count of money at the New York
sub-treasury has been finished with the
I result of showing a discrepancy of $35 ,
I in a sum total of nearly two hundred
I million , the shortage being easily ac-
I counted for. Mr. Hiatt made good the
B deficiency and was given a receipt in
full.
I Tiie executive committee of the nab
I tional editorial association held a scsd
I. sion at Cincinnati recenty , when it ,
I was decided that the nest meeting of
I tho association should be held at De1
I troit , August 27 to 30. At the annual
I meeting eleven papers pertaining to
I subjects of interest to tho profession
will bo presented.
The trial trip of tho new cruiser , tho
"Charleston , " off tho California coast ,
was something of a failure on account !
of defects in the steel , of which one of
her engine slides was constructed. But
her developments of speed in spite of
tho failure of one of the four slides was 1
i sufficient to encourage the officers in the ;
belief that she will be the best vessel of
her class afloat. She is the first war
ship built on the Pacific coast.
_
'
, s Tiie Northern Pacific has served sixty
day notice on the Transcontinental as-
sociation that it will withdraw from it
on July 21st. This action has been ant
' ticipated , due to the fact that the Union
Pacific has entered into competition for
the Puget sound business. Lively dev
velopments are promised , and a rate
war with the possible disruption of the i
Transcontinental association is likely to \
grow out of the difficulties.a
The examinations for the naval
academy cadetships as well as for West
Point take place within a phort time.
Ambitious young Nebraskans eager to '
enter the service of their country should
not let the opportunity pass to present
their applications to the congressmen of
% their district. Nebraska is entitled to 1
her proper representation at the national
* ' * ' ' -S ' , -military schools , and state pride should
prompt her to send those of her sons ;
only who will reflect credit on her name ,
The final decision of the United
l-\ States supreme court in the Hill-Terry-
Sharon controversy removesfrom the
courts one of the most scandalous cases I
of our day. Born in iniquity , nursed
in forgery , and championed by the murT
derer of Broderick , the case presented
all the phases of human depravity and
greed , matrimonial climaxes and revol-
ver arguments. The contest hurried
Sharon to his grave and gave Terry a
wife worthy of his reputation.

, ? * B. B. Elliot , actuary of the treasa
ury department , estimates the popula- ,
tion of the United States at the close of
the present decade at 64,476,000. Mr.
Elliot's previous estimates have so nearlr
ly approached the truth as to give his
judgment weight. Other statistical
authorities put it in round numbers at
, 65,000,000. The late Professor Dra-
per predicted those figures for 1890 ,
* cv , tJ twenty years ago. Our population is
doubling in about twenty-five years ,
which is the normal rate of increase for
the conditions of this continent
, acj
cording to Edward Atkinson.

Many contend that the closing of
the saloons will have a tendency to stagr
w nate business in Benkelman. The
Democrat takes a different view of the
situation. Quite often prohibition has
proven a failure in eastern towns , inash
much as is it was detrimental to their
/ business interests. The reason often is
* C , this , Germans will invariably patronize
* * P& a town that sells liquor in preference to
a temperance place , consequently a
temperance town would not receive their
patronage. And a city that depends
largely upon their support would invite
ruin should it drive out the saloons ,
Benkelman need have no fear of that
" difficulty as farmers around this city
j" ' are mostly Americans who would not
I " boycott a town simply because it was
a prohibition place. The Democrat was
L not instrumental in closing the saloons ,
but now that the deed is accomplished ,
B it prophesies that they never will be
B missed. Benkleman Democrat.

Secretary op War Proctor denies
that either the president or himself have
considered the subject of granting am
nesty to deserters from the regulararmy. [
But , despite this denial , it seems to be
settled that such a course will be purc
sued. There are now in this country
more than 40,000 deserters from the
regular army , men whose patriotism in
time of need cannot be doubted , but
who found army life in the ranks in
time of peace irksome , and are now in
hiding. It is no more than right that
pardon should be extended to these .
men , and that changes be made in the
service regulations to prevent so large |
a proportion of deserters in the future ,
