Iowa leads all corn states in av erage yield this year. Nebraska comes close to Iowa anu is five points ahead of Kansas in the average. Secretary Morton is reported to have said that he rejoices at the result of the election in Ohio, be cause it improves the prospect of “a fair and square stand-up battle between the arch representative of protection and some sturdy demo crat identified with tariff reform.” The Tribune does not like to seem impertinent, but in view of the fact that with §57,829,000 on hand above the legal requirement, the New York banks increased their loans only §003,000 during last week, it would like to enquire if they had heard of the repeal of the Sherman law? At Independence, Iowa, John son, the noted bicyclist, went a mile, with a flying start, in 1:5G§. and the same distance from a standing start in 2:2g. The last performance stamps Mr. Johuson as a genuine ;‘cuss on wheels,” and has caused Nancy Hanks, the great trotting mare, to crawl into the darkest corner of the stable. The American states are already in a blaze of indignation over the action of the state department in dealing with the trouble in Hawaii. The course of the administration in holding back the information until after the election was unques tionably inspired by a very guilty knowledge that the country would not endorse the findings of Presi dent Cleveland and the political curio who poses as liis secretary of state. Evidence is rolling in entirely vindicatory to the great and good work accomplished by the re-elec tion of Judge Gary. Editor Sam uels of the Loudon Anarchistic paper declares that he is a “dirty man doing dirty work,” and other able advocates of dynamite bombs and opera house explosions are loud in their expressions of disgust and indignation. With Emma Goldman on Blackwell’s island, Governor Altgeld nursing a black eye in Springfield and the Span ish bomb throwers awaiting the garrote in Barcelona, the holy cause of anarchy does not appear to be in the most flourishing con dition at present. That is a good idea of the man agers of the Midwinter Fair to combine with a low rate railroad ticket to California in admission to the fair and an excursion ticket to the Yosemite and the big trees. It is to be hoped that the railroad companies which made such a ter rible mistake and blunder in re gard to the World’s fair will dis play business sense and genuine enterprise this time. A chance to visit the Pacific, the Midwinter fair, and a couple of the wonders of the world, all at once, is some thing that should strike the broad and very comprehensive American mind very favorably. The tone of Gen. Van Wyck’s interview on the results of the election in Nebraska indicates that it would not be surprising to see him attempt to break into the next republican convention held in Otoe county. He finds that the pops have wrecked themselves by their foolishness and that the democrats are in no better condition. That leaves the republican party master of the situation and dispenser of the offices. There will be no fatted calf when the general comes back into the fold, but he can probably get along without veal by this time.—State Journal. The tariff question will be up for a knock-out this winter, nnd no general revival of business need be expected until the people know just how much industrial institu tions are going to be disturbed. . The New York Sun says thai “if Ingalls of Kansas is to be em ployed as the editor of a paper out in Omaha, we must condole with him. The place in which the ex senator ought to found a great journal, all his own, is in the city of Chicago, which is the sensitive centre of power.” The Sun forgets that Chicago has several of the best newspapers published in the world, and at least half of them preach the republican faith. In Omaha it is different. No good newspapers are published in Oma ha and the republicans have been without a representative there for years.—State Journal. Metropolitan journalism long ago discarded the rooster as an emblem of political victory, but the late election was too much for the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, and it covered its title page with a poultry show garnered from the cast-off copper plate cuts in use before the war. On the whole this fuss and feathers is to be depreca ted. Victory stands for itself and is made no more emphatic by a vainglorious display of Plymouth Rock roosters flapping their wings and crowing above the prostrate forms of the enemies of good gov ernment. Then, again, political triumphs are too much like the ebb and flow of the saline ocean, and the breaker reaching nearest the heart of the continent has no time to feel good over it till it has to double itself up for another effort to bathe the feet of nature a little higher up. So the political party securing a victory to-day should not become boastful lest the ebbing tide that is sure to follow swallow victory in subsequent defeat. Take down the roosters, be glad and let it go at that.—State Journal. An analysis of the vote cast at the recent state electian is not so encouraging to the republicans as would seem to be indicated on the face of the returns, which elect Judge Harrison by over 7,000. Last year the populists carried 41 counties, the republicans 40, and the democrats 9. This year the pops carried 57 counties, republi cans 25, democrats 8. The fact that Judge Holcomb received con siderable democratic support prob ably accounts for this apparent increase in the populist’s strength. Their gains were confined to the smaller counties, where the repub lican majority was slight at best, while in the counties of Douglas and Lancaster the republicans gained enough to counterbalance that of the populists in a dozen or more counties. While there is little in the returns to dishearten the leaders of the populists, the repeated failure to elect a state offi cer has a tendency to distinegrate the ranks, and a well-directed cam paign by the republicans next year will remove the party as a political factor in state politics for years to come, if not for all time. DBj FTI W_SS. Mr. Foot has returned from Sherman county. Thanksgiving will soon be tiere and the turkeys are roosting high. Mr. Crawford and son, William, have gone over to Danbury to build a house for Mr. Everist. Those afflicted with Lagrippe are the families of r. I. Grundy and Mr. Bram ble, also Mrs. Boades. We hear that Mrs. Doll, an old resi dent of Driftwood, has recently gone to California to spend the winter and to enjoy the beauties of that climate. We see men who hardly know where the next day's work or the next day's food is to come from; and it they suc ceed in securing work for a few days, as soon as their wages are received they invest them in the traffic that as sists in swelling the school fund, and then cry “hard times."
