* .V)0,000,003 Bpeut to lniirovo | Its channels
could not rrsloio ex-en what it lost at Iho
Minis of the competitive power of the tail-
xays. .
The ffcrnhl \ as liidly mistaken in its
'nets ns it is in tlio arguments which it
ittompu to bolster up by an ignorant
lUtortion of tlio truth. The Missouri
ivcr , in its upper and loxvor iiortion , is
icing navigated to-day by regular line
if btoitinors which are doing : i good bu i-
ies < with the towns alouj ; its banks.
'oxvcl Uros. , of Hismarck , have been run-
dug a line between that jace ! mid 1'ort
Jenion , a dlatancu of 81i ( miles , and dur-
ngtlie season just closed have trans-
) orled thousands of tons of freight each
xviiy. A steamer has made regular trips
jelwecn Dismarek and points below. He-
hides those , two c-r three other steamers
nado regular trips lo HcnUm prior to
his season. A regular line has been ply-
ug between St. Louis and Kansas Cily
md is understood to have done a paying
msincss , toueliing at points not reached
i.v railroads. These hard facts gix-o the
io direct to the statement that the navi
gation of tlio Missouri "is a myth" and
hat "no boat is over soon on its waters. "
1 ho improvement of the Missouri is prac-
.ieable and is demanded by the produe-
ng interests of the vast agricultural re
gion through which it passes. Were a
channel once assured millions of tons of
\vhuat and corn would pa.ss down the
river to the Mississippi and ilw Gulf , and
Millions of tons of coal and iron and
Toight would make return cargoes -
goes at rates which xvould rcu-
ler competition by rail impossi
ble. Everywhere open water routes
lave ulaced impassable barriers to rail
road extortions and have enriched the
country by the saving which they have
nado in transportation rates. Tito Erie
canal , which cost New York state ? ? 1fl03.-
)30 ) , has returned its cost five times over
to tlio producers and consumers of that
stato. Tlio Mississippi is a constant
cheek-valve to the greed of corporate
nonopolios along its banks. The great
akes regulate freight tariffs at every
> oint on tlieir shores. The objection of
.ho railroad lobbyists and the corpora
tion-bound editors to river improvements
irises solely from the knowledge that an
> pen river as a railway regulator cannot
le bribed like congressmen , purchased
iko legislatures , or subaidizud with job
work likobrafs-collared editors.
Admitting that "no boat is over scon
on its waters , " xvliieh is false , it is clearly
the duty of the govornmsnt lo put the
Missouri river in sueli a condition as to
render it available in case of extortionate
rales on the part of the railroads. For
every dollar so expended the public xvill
reap ten-fold bcneiit.s.
s for tJio Poor.
The county commissioners have dele
gated the business of caring for the poor
to the superintendent oT the poor farm.
It is le.tt to him to decide upou the merits
of each applicant for charity , the quan
tity of fuel and provisions lo which each
is entitled , and Iho frequency with which
liioy shall draxv rations. The business of
making the purchases is also entrusted
to him. This , of course , relieves the
commissioners of a great deal of annoy
ance and responsibility , but it gives a
line opportunity for favoritism and job
bery to the riuperinlendent. Ho becomes
a sort of quartermaster and commissary
without any restrictiona ad lo quantity ,
quality , and cost of supplies. As a con
sequence of this fast and loose way of
doing business , the county is probably
paying u great deal of money for inferior
materials to personal and political
friends.
This is only ono of the bad features of
this method of curing for the poor. In
all cities there arc always professional
beggars and vagrants who make it tlieir
business to live 1'ioin public charily.
There rru hundreds of poor people who
are meritorious , but xv'a : > prefer tj sillier
and starve rather than to apply for alms.
If thu charity dopaitnuut of thu county
xvas managed xvitli an eye solely lo the
relief of poverty aside trom politics and
favoritism , thu proluisional boggai-i
would be unable to consume what rightly
belongs to the meritorious poor. Hut ,
under Mr. Pierce , thu vagrant beggars
hold high carnival. Wo am credibly in
formed that a gang of notorious uomcn
who hax'o been iuj.ulfiir drunkenness ,
xagi'aney and 111 fame a number of times ,
have beun drawing rations all thuycai
around , and tire still drawing rations U
feed a brood ol roughs xvho are living
upon tliuir wages of .sin. It is har.lly
possible that Mr. 1'iercu is Ignoranl ol
the character of this class or Hit
criminal poor , and if he douim't know
their unworthinenit it miibt bi
biiiMUHu ho Inw nut trie 1 to inform hiu :

sons who own property and are ol
able to suppoit themselves and thuli
families tire drawing ch.irit.x Irom tin

no countenance , much lut * * , fuel and pro

thu county doits not commend itself u

A AVortlij Cause.
The committee of the Omaha Young
Men's Christian ii oclilion : have bepttn
Ihelr ranvass for funds for the erection
of a building , and appeal to our citizens
xvllhout respect to creed to assist them in
the undertaking. I'ht-y propose next
Sunday to hold a mass meeting at IJoyd's
opera house , at xvhieh the cause will be
lirescnled , nnd extend a general Snvita-
lion to our people to attend and to help
them on xvith the work. The Run cheer
fully commends the eauso of the as-ioehr
lion to tiio people of Omaha. Other cities
of our sic , xvilh scarcely nn exception ,
have provided comfortable buildings
for their Y. M. < J. A'.s. Their In
fluence for good is generally recognized
as in every way worthy of popular sup
port. Their xvork is in tlio interests of
peed ; citizenship and morality , and is
prosecuted x\lth an entire disregard of
denominational dilVerenecs. Any insti
tution xvho.se object is to provide com-
fottablo reading rooms and libraries , op
portunities for mental nnd physical cul-
tnro , watchful supervision oxvr and in
terest in joung men should roccHe
prompt and generous support in I heir
xvork.
The groxvth of this organization has
been most encouraging. At this
time there are 2)3'J ) associa
tion * in uvislfiice. Of this number
lH ) ! are established in tlio United Stales
and the Dominion , iiival Hrttnln has
r oi ; ; France. TO ; Germany , fill ) ; Holland ,
JinO ; Switzerland , M < ; Denmark , 4 ! ! ;
and Belgium , 21. Associations are also
established in Snain , Italy , Tui'knv , U'H- '
pia , Austria , Japan , Syria , South Africa ,
Australia , New Zealand , Madagascar ,
and India. The. strongest , and , in many
particulars , the host of the organisa
tions are tlioso in the United Slates. At
thn present time there are in tills
country C39 general ' associations ;
10'J ' colleg" , 09 railroad , 81 col
ored , and 12 German associations.
The American association oxvns properly
to the extent of $ JuonGQ ( ) , of which sum
SS.533,00 is invcslcd in buildings. Their
aggregate annual expenditures now
amount to about three-quarters of a mil
lion of dollars. It speaks well for tlio
railway management of this country that
it encourages this branch of xvork among
railroad employes. The expense of this
branch of associations , at present ,
amounts to $7.\000 per annum.two-tliirds
of xvhieh sum is contributed by the cor
porations , ( ho officers of which tcslify to
"the great benefit resulting to tlieir em
ployes through this special department
ot tlio Y. M. C. A. Tlio Omaha associ
ation has struggled along for jears with
out a home and in straightened circum
stances. It is high time that it should bo
planted firmly on its feet.
KAXSAS CITV is reaching out to Hast
ings , and other southwestern roads are
tapping our territory behind us. If
Omaha xvill open her eyes , and her cap
ital , bts will open Iheii pocket-books we
can reach down into the territory now
occupied by Kansas City , and transfer to
Omaha by as short a line as that which
now runs into Kansas City a largo pro
portion of the business of central Kan.
son and the southwest. Wo have belorc
this referred to the fact that a line ol
railroad running southwest from Omaha
to the Indian Territory line would tap
every trunk line cast and west into Kan
sas City about a hundred and lift.y
miles from the Missouri river. It
would give to that great see-
lion a market hero as near to
thuir doors as Kansas City itself , while il
xvould draw to our stock yards the bulk
of the great Tc\is : shipment of cattle.
1 he I.no of such a projected rotul would
pass near Beatrice in our own state ,
through Ottawa , Kansas , crossing the
Kansas I'acilie in Ellsworth county , ami
passing through Comanchc county on
the southern border , would cross tin :
public lands in the western part of Indian
territory. Krom that point a junction by
direct route could be made xv.tli a railroad
built trom San Antonio to Frodrloksburg
Texas , and a port on the Gulf of Mexicc
secured at Aransius. This is a far reach'
ing t < chemo of railroad extension , but il
is possible and practicable. Such a
trunk line would do moro for thu inter-
outs of Omaha than a do/.cn stub roads.

Mr. I'ttrnell's nationalist campaign is
progressing beyond lao expeuUitious of
his most ar io.it adm.ivrs. Cablegrams an
nounce thai he is eerta.n to have ciirhly-
six folloxvcrs , and the chances are even
foi three more. Of tliesj sixty-eig.it are
from Minister , Leinster an-l Cotiiiaught ,
being a clean sxveop of those provinces
xvith thn exception of two lories from
Dublin university. In Ulster out of
thirty-three .seats ho is certain to c irr.y
seventeen , and in Liverpool he xvill carry
oho. The still doubtful seats are two in
Ulster and ono in Liverpool. For tlio
attack upon Ulster and Liverpool there
were selected siv men , xvho will also run
in oilier districts. These men and tlieir
districts anas 1'ollow.s , the di.lienll ones
being namud lirst : T. M. Healey , South
Derry and North Monaghau ; Thomas
S'\ton , W > st Belfast and South Sligo ;
Justin McCarthy. Derry Cily and North
Longford ; Mr. pillon , North Tyrone
and East ISJavo ; J4\ T. O'Connor ,
Scotland Wu\l , Liverpool and Galway -
way ; John Reiliiiond , Exchange
Ward , Liverpool and WexforJ. Of
these Mr. MeCarthv nml Mr. Dillon have
the. hardest kind of lights , but success is
likely. Mr. Kedmond probably leads a
forlorn hope. Tllesoiiro the only men
having double nrtVntn-.ltions. If they win
tlieir doubtful seats tlioy xvill resign the
other ? , which will then btf lilled by less
famous aspirants' . Mr. Parnell declines
to run any where' but'4n Cork because of
his unuill.ngnosS to sit for any other
place. Jt has been resolved to abandon
the idea of contesting districts in Glas
gow and London. Instead of this tlio
Parnell men will h .p the lories thu-ro , as
the matter now stands. The contests in
Ulster are likely to be aided by fierce
faction rivalries iiiaido thu lory party
there. Tlio orange wing , which is light
ing the aristocrat o leaders of United
Ireland , has doim a real service in col
lecting proof that Ir.sh landlords are
mortgaged up to their eyes with Lon
don bankers and usurers , and the secret
of lliuir refusal Ui abate the villain
ous renUs is the obligation lo pay
enormous interest on past loans.

Mr. Gladstone b ijan his Midlothian

great aim of the i > n miur is to force from
the front thu ibsm of ell ireh disestablish
ment which the conservatives are oppos
ing xvith fierce vigor as thu lest is-ue of
the liberal campaign. Th t entire aspect
of the canvass has be en changed by the
shrewdness with which Salisbury and
Churchill have injected t'lis ' disturbing
issuu into llio campaign and aroused tlio
fears of every vested interuit in Great
Britain. In addition thorn souins to bo a
decided laok of proper management in
the liberal canvass. In London alone
forty seats in tlio house of coinm ms are
contested by two or more lib mil candi
dates , nnd.in the whole United Kingdom
the lories m.iygain seventy-live members
of Parliament through the division of
their opponents. Americans can hardly
