ten on Juno SH. Kefcrnnco was vet
after a protracted debate IIDOII the soleii
pledge of Senator Kdmunds that t
measure slioiild lie reported to the sciia
within eight day * . This pledge w
called out by the sarcastic remark
Senator Meek thai the bill "might as wi
go to tlio tomb of the Capulels" as to I
judiciary committee , suplemonlcd by t
lequc.stof Mr. Vance to "have the bill re
once more , " in order that lie tniglil "la
mi eternal farewell of it. " Hoth roinarl
which were greeted by undlgniliud lau
tor , showed Hie senate knew Very w
the object of those who fought for t
reference of the measure to Air. Kdiiuim
c'oinmlttee.
After nearly three weeks' delay t
liill lias been reported back lo the boiui
so distorted anil loaded down with ad <
tional matter a * to insure its defeat , T
original measure dimply forbade t
peonle.'s ' representatives trom acting
attorney's for any land grant road. T
bill as reported from the iudiciary co
mittee prohibits a member of eitli
hou o of congress from being c
ployed by any corporation engag
In inter-stale commerce by laud
water , or in the tiansporlatl
of the mails , "or who are engaged in t
production , .sale or importation of a
article upon which a duty is levied by '
of congro-s. " In other words , it propos
to prohibit any lawyer from sitting
congress , for its clauses cover near
every branch of legal business. The 1) )
of course stands no possinlo chance
passage in MICH term , and this is precise
what the members of the committee ai
the railroad attorneys who fought f > o ha
for its reference intended.
This result forms one of tlio gratult
of the proofs presented to slit
inal the senate is controlled
corporate influences. The scandal lo
ago became a public one. It is now
notorious that it is treated by caricati

The "no rain" argument lias been wo

present writing , western Nebraska is si

within lifty miles of the Missouri river.
Tliero are of course some bad farmii
lands in the vast area which makes.i

Crops planted in the sand hills or e

elate , there lias been nothing to clestn
the splendid conlidenco of our front !
settlers in expecting gooel i
turns for their honest labor. Tl
corn belt has long a-jo passed tl
hundredth merieliaii. For several hu
dreil miles beyond , farmers have gi :
nercd crops. ' The linest sland of corn

man , "J saw last week twelve miles b

their souls in patience and to await r
suits. Tlio exodus from western N

causes and to read the victims a lectui

Homo Tnrill'
It is Very warm weather fe > r politic

of the tanIV , which Me srs. Randall an
Morrison seein inclined to force upon II
country etiiring the ? heated torm. A fo
plain facts stand out beyond run ounb
dispute.
'llio country Is suH'eiing from ovi
taxation , which has caused ovcrprodu
tion by unduly stimulating certain classi
of favored manufacturers ami oe | > 3lnir tl
toreign markets to the manufactiireel su
plus. The natural re-action has caused
depression of industry- Mills and facto
ics are closed. In many of these that ai
running , wage > s are low. A millia
workmgmon are out of employment , bi
there is a treasury surplus of uourJ
eighty-live millions.
Three plans of relief are sugcestee
Mr. llandali proposes to lift the buvele
from tlio shoulders of the workiugme
by abolishing the tax on tcbaoco an
apple-jack and Increasing the tarill' o
the tin in Ids dinner palls , tin plates an
kitchen utensils , and the clothes ho wean
Ho also Increases the free list Dy what h
estimates will amount to $5,00 , ,000 an
nually.
Another plan proposes a general n
ductiou in tariff rates , a correapondhij
eulitrgvuicnt of the frctiat , especially i
the line of raw materials , and a parin
elown of eluties to a point whe-rc 111" ii

will no more than meet the annual el

Still a thml plan Is to let what is calle
"well enough alone. " Tills Idea is su
porleel by the gre al industrial inonop
lists uml their representatives In co

A tariff for revenue purpose * , on tl
basis of thes last lineal year , would betl
present tarllV cut down scarcely mo
than ten per cent. If the ways ar

A Soiinil
There is a soiinel and substantial basi
for the continual lirmness in the real of
tate market in Omaha. That basis i
the rapid growth of the city in popuhi
tion and wealth , and the steaely incrcas
of the wage uarners. Tliero are few idl
workingmeii in Omaha. Tlio shops
milh , factories anel foundries , the rail
roads anel public Improvements are em
ploying more men this summer than eve
before , Steaely wagns for workingmoi
means a steaely growth for the city when
the workingmeii live.
It only needs a short elrivo aroune
Omaha outside of its contro to convince tin
mostsoeptical that the numerous transfer ,
of real estate are by no means principally
speculative. There are Iiunelredsof sinal
collages going up in every direction
most of wliieh are buili by owners of tin
lots on which thoyatand. There will hi
more homes built by men of moelorate
moans this year in Omnha than eivcr before
fore In its history. ' Many others are
arceteei for intending purchasers on tin
monthly payment plan and still otlion
for renting. Tlio surest evidence of the
prosperous growth of tho1 city is Hie fac
that five hundred cottages could bo rontoi
lo-elay if tlie-y wore ready for tenants.
Of course there is ft .speculative elo
incut in thu real cstato market , as them
Is in every other markot. 'Men ' will speculate

Hut gooel values in both are good values
in spite of speculatbrs nd bogus boonv
