ALTIIOUOH Nebraska Is in every re spect the equal of Kansas in point ol productiveness and natural resource ! she has not kept pace with Kansas IE growth. lu 1880 Kansas had ncarlj ono million population while Nebras < ka had only 402,000. During the pas ! two years Kansai has added fullj 200,000 to her population while No- breska haa scarcely added half thai number. The primary cause of the marvelous growth of Kansaa wai political , but since the war hoi growth Is mainly duo to cilcctlvo auc systematic advertising. Kansas hoi never loit on opportunity to advortLu her resources. She has expended veal luins of money for publishing to thi world her advantages of soil and cli mate , while Nebraska haa depended pendod almost entirely upon the ad vertialng she has received through thi Und grant railroads.

The legislature will convene on th 2d of Jannary and the first bnsinos of importance will bo the election o speaker. Time honored ua.igo ha given the speaker the prerogative t appoint the committees of the hous nnd inasmuch as the committee shape legislation the spcakcrship is position of great Influence and rospon siblllly. A competent , upright am impartial speaker can do the fltnt great ocrvico. A jobber , ( rickstc and lool of monopolies would bo i dangerous man in t > uch n placo. There is n deposition among lor.dtnj anti'inonopoliata to take tha appoint raont of committees from the tpoake and leava their organization to thi house as ia custotmry in the oana'.o , Wo doubt the propriety of nuch i conrno Thcro nro ono hundred members ir the hounc. Such n largo body is mure unwioldly than the conato and the assignment of members to their rcnpoc- , ivo committees would become more diflicult. It would ba moro desirable lint the man chooon to preside ovoi ho houio should bo In full accord with the nipjotity of the body on nil vital issues , aud above all things that 10 should bo a man whooo integrity ia bovo autpicioii , and whoso loyalty to ! io principles of anti-monopoly cannot > o assailed. Amonu the ono hundred mcmbors of ho legislature such a man can douVU\eM ) k ° f ° nnd. It W > U not do , howotor ! i < J J11"1' ? ? mistake , in the choice , o * speaker. It will 8fc S31 1 ' .rust to the protections ano promteoR of any man whoso political record la tainted or whono associations leave room for doubt as to hia fidelity. Thcro are already a number pf candi dates in the field for the apcakorahiu. All of them claim to bo In earnest sympathy with thotnoasurca advocated by anti-monopdiata. But wo know that Bomo of these candidates sro 'in oloso communion with the political managers of the railroads and dxpoot active support from them. 'Can nuch doublo-doalint ; tricksters br trusted ? Are they likely to fulfill tlr\j pledges they make to anti-monopolists when they depend for their succeso upon the nupport ot railroad luont In order to nuke euro of the olec- tfon of n rnun of thuir choice , the po' iitioal nttornoja of the railroads and their odltorlr.l cooocialop , propose to clamor for a csucua of republican * to nominate a npeaker , whom every re publican member should bo in honor bound to ouppart. In ot her words it is proposed to.cxaol a plodgs from every republican member of the house that ho will nupport for speaker any man that recoivoa a majority of the votes of a cauousmado up of republican mombnrj of the honao. Could any man who earnestly desires to legislate against existing abuaca by railroads enter Bucli a oauoon and by making anch n pledge bind himaolf to oupport a man for speaker who would organize the committees to defeat every antimonopoly nopoly mocsurci ( .Could any member of the Icgialataro who is pledged to Favor anti-monopoly legislation go back homo among his constituents and justify hia vote for n monopoly speaker ? \Yhat light has any honorable man to skulk behind the party caucus to shirk a rotponnibility and violate a aacrod trait ? Ia Ihora any othur lionorablo course loft for an honest and oincoro antl-monopoliut , whatev er his political faith may bo , than to record hia vote for the man cf hia oholco in the open house and lot his record attcot his fidelity to principle and his devotion to the material welfare of the state. Ir any member of the Douglas county delegation wants to confer a blessing on this community , lot him put a bill through the legislature that will rid this city of seven or eight shysters that pretend to dispense jus tice under authority of law as justices of the poaco. Every bualne-.u man of Omaha is in favor of re ducing the number of j an ticca in this city to three or four. Let these judges bo elected by the city at largo , glvo them a iixod salary , and lot the costs go to the city 01 county , nnd wo shall have men upon the justices'bonoh who can ba trusted and whoso decisions are respected , As it is , this city la cursed with t set of "coat mills" where * men arc robbed in the uamo of justice ant jnstlco is worse than mockery , From these legalized robberies then can bo no relief until the logislatun enacts a law that will abolish thi worse than useless justices' courts.
