OMAHA AND THE STATE
The near approach of the opening
day of the Nobraka state fair brings
prominently before the moichants of
Omaha the necessity for concerted
notion looking towards a full repre
sentation of our city's trade and man
ufactures at thb coming exhibition.
Last year the space for the display of
goods was found entirely inadequate
and manyof our merchants who would
otherwise have made handsome exhibits -
hibits were forced to content them
selves with n few square feet of space.
This year the matter it likely to
prove oven worse. Every indication
points to an unparalleled demand for
room , not only from our citizens , but
also from the entire state. The ac
commodations which last year proved
too contracted will bo oven more HO.
The area of the buildings has not
been increased and the number yf in
tending exhibitors will bo much
greater. Under those circumstances
some provision should at oncy be made
to fitjiply the lack of apace r nd to nf

TJJE rapid reduction of our nationn
- debt is causing a discussion in som
quartets whether the time ) < as not ar
rived when the payments of the prin
cipal cannot bo deferred until som
period in the remote future. The na
tjonul conception of its debt ditl'er
he greatly from that of ijiost othar na
, tions. In Europe a debt is eonsidarei
as something which causes a certaii
strain upon the annual income , Th
obligation to pay the interest ii holi , ]
sacred , but very little thought i
u given to the principal. ( The limit o
of a debt is thought to bo not ho
- amount of principal that a nation wil
ultimately be able to pay , but tin
*
- amount on which interest can annu
ally bo paid , The policy of uho <
United States has been to make an-
nu.il payments on the principal of the
debt as well as of the interest. Fol
lowing this policy , almost a quarter
of the debt has been paid in the fif
teen years which have elapsed since
the close of tlio war , while the an
nual interest charge has been reduced
nearly one-half. It is n good policy
to pay one's debts when possible.
There ia no certainty that the good
times will lust forever , and it will bo
a relief when the change comes to bo
able to reduce the taxes without en
dangering our credit.

av The Slocara
;
Lincoln Democrat ,
Wo have battled early and late
against fanatical temperance , and we
shall continue to do so ; but then thnro
is a juste milieu in all this , and the
laws must bo obeyed. Wo shall bat-
tip as energetically against those who
wilfully break the law , as against
those who have been desirous to nul
lify tlio laws of nature on well us those
of personal liberty. Those men who
violate the Slocumb law , now that it
is pronounced constitutional , are the
worst enemies of the liquor traffic ,
and will make it necessary to enforce
the law ut all hazards. "Free whisky
or free beer" should not bo tolerated ;
a decent license is the best regulator
of decency in saloons , and the best
mode to restrict drunkenness. License
does not make wine , beer or whiaky
as any higher to the consumer ,
than no license ; but license regulates ,
while no license as prohibition , disor-
. ganizes. Wo want the Slocum law
enforced , not because wo like the law ,
but because there is no appeal fiom
it except through the next legislature ,
providing it has a democratic major
ity. Thu low rum shops are immier-
oiis to body and soul and wo are op
posed to thorn ; \\o favor respectable
sa'oons , and reasonable license alone
can secure them , Those who violate
the Slocum law are not better than
Finch himself ; they bocomg his allies
by disorganizing the trade and ena
bling him to continue his crusade ;
thay are playing in his hands and
against thuir own interests.
In Lincoln wo have had the one
thousand dollar license for years , and
what is the result il Beer is thu same
price as ever ; so is whisky ; so is every
thing dse and in the same quantities.
The lowly and rich en go jn nni nro
treated alike proyi , . ,1 tioy , \miQ \
decently. Our L-ltcoH
, ] sai00ii3 are
"model little rep.iblics , " where equal
rights and respo risibilities are equally
divided nnd cnjoyed. But what will
the falcons { n Omaha represent ?
Anarchy , \ \ \ the fullest accep
tation of the word.Vo trust
Mayor TJoyd will prove equal
to Urn emergency by wiping out with
D vigorous Imtul such places as dare to
oppose In w with a free bar. Wo have
w > pity for Btich people ; they must bo
crushed and be made to nmko room
'or such men as will pay one thou
sand dollar licenses as the law di-
ects. Omaha has everything to gain
> y it and HO have the brewers and
listillors , and it is to bo hoped that
bcso people , the manufacturers , who
are the most interested in the traflic ,
will refuse to sell any beverages to
inch men as have derided to ruin
, lieir business by their deliberations
o violate the law. The city council
of Omaha is n very strange body
wlitic , to bo sure.
5lclnej Plain c.iltr.
Nebraska's Supreme court decided
in last Saturday that the Slocumb
iquor law passed by the last legisla-
: uro is constitutional. That the de
cision was rendered within twenty-
: our hours after the case was subinit-
; cd to the court , it matters but little
now , although in opposition to the
unanimous opinion of the judges , we
hid many of the best legal minds of
the state , and it is but fair to pre
sume that so deliberative a body as
. \\o \ state Supreme court would have
reflected long and well upon such
weighty arguments as the opposition
could and did adduce in support of its
side of the case. Now that the ob
noxious and blighting law is confirm
ed , a question arises as to whether it
can bo enforced. Omaha liquor deal
ers accept that it cannot , and are de
termined to continue in business , to
tally ignoring it. Other places
throughout the state have also de
cided to sustain their liquor dealers
without reference to its restrictions.
This state of affairs will doubtless
breed litigation throughout the whole
commonwealth , and what the outcome
will bo , is a matter difficult to fore
shadow. The law will probably bo
enforced in cominunitien where the
predominating feeling is favorable to
temperance , but in communiticb where
an adverse feeling prevails , its opera
tion will only bo secured by force.
If the Sloeumb law is adopted
throughout the state , its operation
will bo disastrous to the general in
terests , in that it crushes for a time ,
at least , a branch of business which
has donoand can do much to build tip
the commonwealth. It will entail a
loss of population and capital which
as a frontier state , emerging from
wild prairie , Nebraska sadly needs in
her advance to prosperity.
Grand Island Times.
Immediately upon the announce
ment of the fact that the Slocumb
law had been declared constitutional ,
every saloon in town cloabd its doors.
Those of Iho saloon keepers who had
some time ago taken steps towards
taking out n license , proceeded at
once to comply with all the requirements
monts of the law , and on Monday
evening three , out of the twenty in
our city were running at full blast
again and well patronized. Several
others arc at present engaged in pro
curing petitions and bondsmen and in
duo time will open.up again.
Wo hope to see the law strictly enforced
forced , and the number of oursaloons
decreased about one-half , or mpro.
While the law may seem to discriminate
nato in favor of the rich as against
the poorer dealer , still it will have a
tendency to confine the business to
the hands of responsible parties and
clean out the low groggorics , a result
most devoutly to bo wished.

LEO HARTMANN.
The Nihilist Leader Pays a
Visit to Omaha.
"What Ho Has to Say Concerning
HiN Future Plans-
It came to light yesterday afternoon
that Leo 11. Hartmnnn , the noted so
cialist and nihilist , who recently ct-
capcd to America , and who was last
licard of in Chicago , has been spend
ing several days in this city and was
yesterday in Council Blufl'a. The
bold agitator evidently changed his
plans , which lie announced to the
Chicago reporters to bo that hovould
turn his stops toward the Canadian
dominion , and instead concluded to
take Horace Greoley'a advice , and
come west for the purpose of visiting
his socialistic brethren. Mr. Hart-
mann was seen yesterday by a BKK
reporter nt the Crnston house in
Council Blufl'a , and in a brief conver
sation stated that he crvnic to Omaha
last Friday morning ; that lie remained
in 'Omaha till Tuesday , when ho
went over to Council Bluffs.
While in Omaha ho conferred with
several resident socialists as to the
best means of advancing the socialistic
cause in Omaha and the state. Ho
said that there were more socialists
and revolutionists in Omaha than was
generally supposed , there being about
fifty subscribers to The "Vorboto , the
recognized socialistic organ which is
published in Chicago. Ho conferred ,
also , with a number of socialists in
Council Blulla. From thure he will
leave this morning via the Wabash
road for St. .Too , Kansas City and St.
Louis , in each of which cities he will
make a stay of several days. In ap
pearance Mr. Hartmann is a man
about six feet in height and of good
figure. His forehead is high and
taken with other features of the face
denotes strength of character in no
small degree. One peculiarity no
ticed about his countenance was its
perfect immobility , not an expression
appearing to denote the emotions he
might foe' . His eyes , hoivcvorwhich ,
are steel blue , are constantly moving ,
and ho evidently sees everything oc
curring around him. Ho wears a
plain black suit and is unostentatious
in his manner.
