THErHENCH CRISIS
The recent crisis in the French cab-
inetwhich ) has just culminated in the
disolutionof the Do Frojcinct minis
try had its origin in thedofeat of the
famous Article No. 7 of fho education-
si bill , Jules Ferry. This article it
will be remembered forbade unauthor
ized congregations from engaging in
teach in- ; and on its rejection by the
senate the government procsedcdto re
vive Bgiinst the religious orders the
decree directed against the Jesuits
.forty "years ago and Constans the
minister , of the Intertos and of Pub
lic Worship was directed to enforce
thorn.
*
On the 30th dayof Juro the Jesuits
were expelled from their establish
ments in Franco. The other religious
orders , the Capuchins , Dominicans ,
Franciscans and others were allowed
iwo mouths In which to obtain from
tic government authorization to en
gage in educational work and to com-
p'y with the laws regulating education
hy the religious orders. As a whole ,
tin French people approved of the
enforcement of the law against the
religious ordersiuta bitteroppositiqn.
manifested itself among the Iegit-
mists , imperialists and aristocracy.
Th . influence of the clergy
tnade itseff strongly felt and
Premier'Da 1'roycinet began to waver ,
and came to the conclusion that soruo
compromise between the government
and clergy was possible. The propo-
rition of the ministry to delay final I
proceedings in the case of the other
religions orders until the courts would I
piss on the legality of the decrees , the
congregations meantime complying
with the requirements of the law , -was
courteously but firmly declined by the
Catholic nuncio and the French arch-
bishops. Gunbetta now interposed ,
nad paremptorily ordered the
prenrer to enforce the decress against
the religious orders. Fearing
ID risk an advene vote De Freycinel
hwreaingnsd and a new ministry , un-
l ° r the leadership of Ferry , the author
of-the famous Article No. 7 , has been
formed. The formation of the new
cabinet is a victory for the radical 1
branch of the French government but
more thsn * \ \ , is a personal victory for
Gambetta himself. The conservatism
of the ex premier has bean an obstacle
to the advancement of the man who
is now the "overshadowing genius" of f
France. Ferry ia a republican of
deepest dye , more congenial to < ram-
botta and ready to carry out his plans
to the letter. Whether the present
radical ministry will be sustained by
tie popular vote , remains to be eeeru '
LOOK TO YODR SENATORS.
The Nebraska State Senate is made
up ot thirty members. Sixteen
members are a mRJorily. Fifteen
members can block any legislation
benoScial to the people. "With a known
monopoly capper like E. C. Cams pre
siding over the senate , it is all-im
portant to the tax-payers and produ
cers of Nebraska to have , at least , six
teen reliable men in the state senate
who can neither be bought nor bull1
dozed. Under our system of govern
ment , no law can be enacted or can
any be repealed without the concur
rence of 'a mejority of the state
senate. It is , therefore , eelf-
evident that the jobbers who have
schemes for robbing the tax-payers , to
pull through the legislature , will cen
ter all their efforts on the senate.
Monopolies whoso interest it is to
preventany legiElation thatwouldlimit
their | power to discriminate against
one class ot patrons and favor those
who help them in keeping up extor
tionate tollswill seek to control fifteen
members of the senate to block all
railway legislation. Look to
your tenators , therefore , farmers
and tar payers of 2febraska.
Support no man , republican or demo
crat , for senator who is'known to bo
in active sympathy with corporate
monopolies. Support no man who Is
vulnerable to bribes of any kind.
Support no man -who has ever as
member , of any legislative body be
trayed TUB trust. If you have to
chouse between a dishonest republican
and an honest democrat , vote for the
honest democrat every time. The
people of Nebraska are in no
danger of & democratic legisla
ture. In the five years sines the
adoption of our constitution
the largest number of democrats
that has ever been in any one legisla
ture was twenty-five out of one hun-
dicd and fourteen members. If the
democrats should actually succeed in
elecling thirty out of one hundred and
fourteen no great calamity oan hap
pen , providing that those who are
elected are known to be men of integ-
riiy acd above the temptation of a
bribe. If you have to cheese between
a dishonest republican and a dishon
est democrat , induce some hontst mun
to ba as independent candidate and
elocthim.
The people of this state have mil
lions at stake in the next legislature
.and they can better afford to abandon
-their partisan preferences than to al
low jobbers and monopolies to rule
Nebraska. We are gratified to mte
that in some localities where prim *
aries and conventions have been run
by corrupt mcnopolies , the tax payers
are taking the bits' in their own
mouths by calling mass conventions
and putting independent tickets in the
field in opposition to monopoly cap
pers and rlngsters. Saline county is
the first to strike the blow against
misrepresentation in the legislature.
The republican convention of that
county having been manipulated in
the interest of corporation tools and
men who go to the legislature to bar
ter their votes for ofilco or money , the
best elements of all parties prooose
now to support an independent ticket
made up of men of known probity.
Iu other counties where a similar state
of affairs exists , the revolt against mis
rule ia bursting forth , and the hack
sters in legislative votes will have H
harder time to pick ihe elections than
they had in'packing the conventions ,
There is another elars of candidates
for the senate against whom we would
warn the patrons of TIIE BEE. They
are the trimmers and fence riders who
decline to define their position on the
living issues of the day. They are
men who want to slide into the office
without any pledges to their constitu
ents. They want the support of the
monopolies , and they want the sup
port of the farmers , and they ask the
voters to go it blind and take their
chances in their good intentions. Now
a man who goes to the legislature goes ;
there to represent the wish and will o
his constituents. It is not only
proper that they shall know wheth
er ho is in accord -with their
wishes before they vote for him , but it
is imperatively necessary that he shnl
publicly define himself on all import
ant questions , especially on the dntj
of the legislature to protect the pec
pie against monopoly abuses. No
honorable rrun will shirk these issues
If ho is trying to carry water on both
shoulders you may depend on it tha
ho means to sell you out on the hra
opportunity. We have watched the
legislatures of Nebraska for ton year ?
and wu assert beyond the possibility o
contradiction , that nine out o
every ton of the unpledtjec
fell into the ranks
of the jobbers am
jnonopDJy tools. Take Church Howe
for example : He has always been
elected as unpledged , and a bigger
rogue never served in any legislature.
He always pulled the "wool over the
eyes of the farmers by pretending to
be a granger white he was in reality
hireling of the Union Pacific , nnd
their most active worker in the legis
lature. If sixteen such men get into
the next state senate all hope of re
dressing the grievances of the pro
ducers and compelling corporate mo
nopolies to beir their just share o
the burdens of taxation ia lost. Look
well to your senatorial candidates , we
say then , voters of Nebraska.
THE latest reports from the English
grain market announce that the re
sults of threshings in the midland and
southern counties continue to be far
from satisfactory to the farmers. The
quality of the wheat is poor and the
quantity is far below expectation.
Prices in London ajd in some of the
provincial markets have risen in con-
sequence. Heavy rains and floods

Constitutional Chanero.
Le ven orth Tinus.
Constitutional questions will bo
voted upon in quite a numbtr of
states nt the cominsr elections. In
Florida , Kansas and Iowa tha people
will decide whether a general revision
of the comtitutioii is iisedecl. Such
revisions has been recommended by
the legielatares ill thti two sUtcf first
_ iftmed. In Iowa the condition re
quires the question of revision to be
submitted to a popular vote every ten
yean. The people of Illinois wiU
pass upon an amendment extruding
thrt official terms of county treasurera ,
sheriffs and coroners from two to four
years , and making the two former
inelligible for re-election for two con
secutive terms. In Kansia it ia pro
posed to abolish the present oonstin :
tional provision exempting from tax
ation psrsonal properiy to fho amount
of two hundred dollars for each family
and to prohibit the manufacture and
sale cf intoxicating liquors , ex
cept for madical , scientitic ,
and mechanical purposes. An
Amendment to bo voted upon in
Michigan empowers the legislature to
authonze the city of Detroit to did in
the construction and maintenanca of
a railroad bridge or tunnel across the
Eetroit river to an amount not exceed
ing one par cent of the taxable property
orty of the city. The legislature of
North Carolina submits to popular
vote on amendment that certain state
bonds of 18G3,18C9 end 1870 be not
paid unless thoproposition to pay them
be submitted to and ratified by the
people. Another amendment to bo

of all persons of these classes , as is

In West Virginia tha puople

owing to the fact that it Is designed to
avoid a repetition of some of the polit
ical complications that have recently
arisen ia that state. It provides lha

of the amendment was that ii

Reduction of Passenger Rates.
Chicago Tribune.
It is a general rule of all monopolie
to demand the
greateet posaible com
pensatipn for the least possible servie
or consideration. The purpose of ben
efiting or gratifying the public is al
ways the last thought. This , as .1
rule , has been the practice of the rail
road managers in this country , ai <
any yielding or concession in this par
ticular has always been made unde
protest.
It required ye&ra to induce the rail
road managers to tolerate even the
idea that it was profitable to reduca
the rates of
transportation 20 per
cent , and thereby increase the volume
of business 60 per cent ; that theory
was rejected as opposed to all the past
history aid practices of rsilroadism stn
this country. The granger agitation
and legislation , as well as the prostra
tion resulting from the pruic , broke :
down the old theory , and the aggre
gate of business performed since then
compared with previous years , attests
the wisdom of the ehange. A great- ; .
aid in accomplishing this change has
been the adoption of steel railjj it
hoa enabled railroads to duplicate ,
over and over , the amount of their
transportation at less cost than when
the iron rail permitted a Iimile4-ton-
nage. The railways have discovered
that by a reduction of the cost of
transportation they can make greater
profits at leas rates on an immensely
iacceased business than was ever pos
sible , or even to be hoped for , under
the old system.
It has at last occurred to the mao-
agoasent of wpstern railways that the
passenger traffic is equally subject to
the rule that a slight reduction of
the rates IB certain to swell the profits
of the company because of the great
increase of business which inevitably
follows. In fact * tKooch the discov
ery by the railroads that this rule ap
plies to passenger tram ; even more
certainly than to the freight business
is patent , the principle has only just
been put in operation. It has been
but a few months since the Illinois
Central and the Alton and St.
Louis railways reduced their regu
lar rates on passenger transporta
tion to threecent per mile , and agreed
to hsua 1000 mile tickets for § 25 , or
two and a half cants per mile. The
Rock Bland company promptly fol .
lowed suit , and now the Burlington &
Quincy and the Northwestern nn-
nounca that after October 1 the regu
lar local rates for passengers on those
roads will be reduced to three cents
per mile , with ICOO-milo tickets at the
rate of two and a half cents per mile.
These rates are a large concession to
the ! traveling public. They oilbr an
inducement for travel which far es-
ceo'ls the setiming reduction in the
prica of fares. Tbar fares hitherto
have been from tijpBfsnd ahalE to
four rants per miloUiid in some ases
in excess of those raU > . That the re
duction will lead to a great increase in
ha number of personi traveled is
sustained bv all precedent. No
stronger illustration ia required than
initbo case of our city railways.
Theraein be no question that the
sale oi 1,000-miie tickets at two and a
half cents per milo will lead thousands
to ire the railways where hundreds
used thsm before. Men will ride
three times a- often et that rate as
th y rode before , and whole families
will take trips and make journeys
where one member at the eld rate
would do the travelling for all. While
tha public will thank the wisdom which
has suggested this chai'ge ' , mid while
stock-hollers will ba gratified by the
incro'sa of travel and of net earnings
result inc ; from th'is rule , it will be
found that lha ra'lu-ays may go much
father and may improve on the good
policy they have adopted.
'I hero are those who can remember
hen the rjites for the transportation
f merchandise by rail were equal tone
no half a cent per 100 pounds per
mile. Things have changed greatly
iuca then. Now , it is ascertained
hat im rclmndise can be transported
> y raill 1000 miles at a cost to the railway
15 cents
way company not excaeding
rjer 100 poundr ;
The cost of tranaportinij passengers j
m y exceed that of transporting" ifler
chandiso to some extent , but not in
anv approximate ratio to tlie present
difference between passengers and
ncrchandiso fares. We do not suggest
hat passengers and merchan-
liao bo Carried at the same
rate per 100 pounds , but wo do suggest
.hat the rates of passengers can ba re
duced to A uniform cum of two cents
: ont3 per mile for regular ratsa , and
; ae the company an immense profit.
Such : i rate would makd locril trovol
on nil the roads leading to Chicgo
immense ; it would necessitate larger
trains and more of them , and fill them
all. It would make travel between
the city and a'l points within an area
of 800 milea a regular nnd constant
afldir , something that would be a
rjtutjor.of conrao to every mah and
family in all the regWn traversed by
the railways. Great as will be the
benefit to the publio and the railways
from tbe reduction of passenger fares
to l-.vo nnd n half cents per mile , thesa
benefits would bodncrcajed in a far
greater ratio it tha faro should be re
duced to a unlf"rin rate of two cents
p r mile. To this the railways liiuat
tMitiia'Iv come , when they have
pnctically experienced the profits re-
sulHnz from the reluction already
male.
