So is the relaying of the sido- wnlks. The street will be completed in full season for the fair. WnEitr. combination fails to sec its own interests competition should be used to force fair play. A line from Omaha tapping the Elkhorn valley would pay handsome ; returns on the investment THAT chronic sell-out and bribe-taker , Church Howe , thinks ho has the river counties solidly in his support. The First district convention may prove an oyo-o'peiier to ttio .Nemahu trickster. . SUNSET Cox is meditating returning to Now York to run for congress. That is why Cox's constituents laugh. Sunset was iv heavy loss to the democratic ma jority during the last session. AND now a score of property owners , Instigated by the street ear company , arc getting ready to discover whether in junctions really enjoin. They will never prevent the ultimate completion of a cable system in Omaha , though they may hinder the prosecution of the work for the time being. Two or three light shippers may have no cause for complaint against discriminat ing railroads , but the mass of our whole salers know very well when and how they sire hurt. The time has arrived when Omaha must protect herself by building lines which will give her mer chants fair play. , Mit. CU'iVKLAXD's views on the negro in polities are given by telegraph. Ho predicts an inevitable division of the colored vote among the political parties and a bidding by both parties for that vote just in proportion as independent thought becomes more general among the colored voters. Air. Cleveland's chief backing comes from a section where independent thought among col ored men is enforced by clubs and shot guns. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ SKXATOH VAN WVOK very properly bases his candidacy for ru-oloction upon his record during his term now closing. In accepting the nomination nearly six years ago , the senator pledged himself to faithfully and earnestly work for the in terests of his constituents. Ills record rando since that pledge was given must bo tlio host or the worst guarantee of his future 'usefulness to the state should ho bo called upon to succeed himself In the senatorial olllco. TUB HKK is uskcd why , if it will sup port Weaver for congress this your , in case ho is nominated , it declined to sun- port him two years ago. Our reasons worn given in detail at that timo. They we.ro based chielly on Air. Weaver's in action In congress. His integrity or honosly was not in question. The BKI : announced weeks ago that it would sup- porl iiny honest republican in the .First dUtdct , who received the party nomina tion , but that under no circumstances would it support Church llowo. It will BticU by its pledge. "AT Nowjiort , Ky. , some days ago , Sproako Carlisle made a speech in which ho referred to the appointment of Matthews - thows , the Albany colored man , as reg ister of deeds in the District of Columbia , as an evidence of the friendly disposition of the democratic party toward tlio negro race. About the same time another distinguished Kontuckhtu , Senator IMack- burn , was Interviewed in Pittsburgh , and impressed the opinion that the president had madaa mistake in appointing Mat thews in thn ( Ir.st place , nnd a bigger mistake in re-appointing him , Ittit per haps a difference of views balwocn demo cratic leaders on a little matter of this kind is scarcely worthy of attention when thnynru at variance on questions of vastly greater importance. It inny bo re marked in passing that the majority of doinoonvts.sbaro the view of Mr , Black- Mirn. The Only Omaha business men are confronted with the question whether they shall tamely submit to being barred out from : t trade territory which is legitImate-lv theirs , or whether they will take HllriiMit means to compel the Chicago A : North- wrstern system to give this oily the facil ities nnd HIP Irado to which It is entitled. The rich and fertile Elkhorn Valley lies at our doors. The people are anxious nnd willing to do business with our city We have the facilities present for moot ing their wants , tno goods and the trans portation lines. A single line of road stands in the way , nnd by a steady and persistent discrimination against our merchants , diverts thn. larger part ot the trade into the hands of Chicago traders. Against the obstacle of high rates and poor service our business men have battled with more or less suc cess by selling at little or no margin and by patiently pushing their trade in the hoiio of making it extensive enough to demand consideration from the railroad company. The time has eomo when patience ha ? ceased to be n virtue and other means should be adopted. The business men of Omaha ewe it to themselves to takopromptstops to secure an independent line into northwestern Nebraska. Thorn are capitalists enough and means enough in this city to suec-essfully lloat the enterprise. For such a line connected with no othur sys tem , but built and operated by Omaha men in Omaha's interests , liberal induce ments could doubtless bo secured from the cities and comities through which it would pass. If the Chicago & Northwestern railroad refuse to meet the demands of our mer chants for fair treatment this move should be the only alternative. In tlio Mutter of Matthews. The reasons given by President Cleveland - land for the appointment of Matthews , the Albany colored man , to succeed Frederick Douglas as recorder of deeds in the District of Columbia , are in the main commendable. It was perhaps in the fitness of things tl.at the olliee which had been acceptably filled by a colored man of republican principles should bo handed over to another colored man of democratic principles. It may prove , also , a good stroke of policy from a po litical point of view , though cortninly there is no present warrant for an expectation of this kind in the expres sions of the democratic politicians. Ap parently , however , Mr. Cleveland was actuated in the matter by the vimv that such an opportunity for a democratic president to recognize the claims of the colored man , and thereby if possible im press a lesson on his partv which it is very much in need of , ought not to bo ignored , and to this extent his course was proper anil his motives to bo commended. It would be a gratifying result it Mr. Cleveland should bo able to leaa his party , particularly whore it is solid , to feel as he professes to regarding old relations and the new order of things. Every coed citizen would hail with satis faction a substantial evidence that the democracy of the south are disposed to accord to the colored man , regardless of his political affiliations , the rights and the consideration that are duo him as a citizen. Tt Mr. Cleveland could succeed in bringing this about nothing else he might do would be more to his honor. There is ground here , however , for skepticism. But the merit of Mr. Cleveland's pro fessed motives in this matter cannot liroporly bo considered in connection with the question whether his course was legal in reappointing Matthews after ho had been rejected by the senate , re garding which there is still a coed deal of discussion in the District. In the re ported interview with Mr. Cleveland this feature of the matter is not referred to , and it is evident that tlio president is entirely salislied in his own mind that ho lias made no mistake. The well-informed Washington Critic , however , makes out a very strong case against the president , and suggests that serious real estate complications are likely to result a pos sibility that is causing great annoyance to parties interested. If the position of the Critic should be shown to bo correct , there will bo nobody to excuse the blun der of Mr. Cleveland in deference to his professed motives. A County Hospital. The action of the board of county com missioners in making arrangements to submit the question of the erection of a cilv and county hospital to the people at the fall election will moot with general approval. The urgent need of such an Institution has b.jcn felt for several years past. Our county poor house , which is used as an insauo asylum , work house , lying-in-hospital and paupers' home , is wretchedly unlit for the purpose. The shrieks ot maniacs mingle with the groans of ill women. The cells are over-crowded , the rooms filled to ovnr- ( lowing and every facility over-taxed. It is high time that in the interests of decency and humanity better arrange ments should be mndo for the care of the poor and the sick , which in a growing city are yearly increasing in number. The decision of thn com missioners to submit the question whether a hospital shall bo erected is a wise ono. It should bo accompanied by a proposi tion for the sale of a portion of tlio poor farm , sufficient in amount to furni.sh the necessary funds under rigid provisions of appraisement and public sale. Such n proposition would doubtless carry by a heavy majority. In ollering a premium for the plans for the proposed building , thovommissione-rs have acted properly. Hospital construc tion has received great attention among medical men in tlm last ton years , and there is no class of buildings , in whose details greater Improvements have been made. It would bo a wise move on the part of the commissioners to appoint a committee of physicians to pass upon and recommend to the board the plan , which in their judgment will best moe.t the requirements of advanced sanitary science. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ THE commander of the English yaoht ( lalatea has issued a challenge to any American yaejit for a run to Bermuda after n race for the American cup , which will lake plaoo early in September. It is suggested that lieutenant Hcnn , having witnessed the performances of the May- llowor , which boat will defend iho trophy , has uoconio a little nervous re garding the issue of that contest , and desires - sires to cover his defeat , Uiould that bo tha result , by a race of a wholly different character , in which his boat-would prob ably be the victor. It is hold , however , by yachtsmen , that a run to Bermuda would prove nothing as to the relative racing inorits of the boats engaged , and this seems entirely reasonable when the varying conditions under which two ves sels would make the run nro considered. In such a race , it raoo it could properly be called , the only fact that would bo established by a victory of the Galatea is that of her superior sea-going qualities , which are already generally conceded. It does not appear likely that the chal lenge will bo accepted , though doubtless MCI tenant lleiin will not Hint it neces sary to limit the exploits of his line yacht to a single contest. Other Ijiuuls Tliaii Ours. All other subjects of international in terest are forgotten on the continent in face of the Bulgarian Incident. The fall of Alexander and his rapid hurrying out of the country a prisoner on board a Russian yacht , the coup d'etat by which the principality was turned over to Uussian age.nts , the coun ter revolution in which the princn's friends were successful , the disturbed condition of affairs at last advices all have taken plane so quickly that the situ ation is most bexvlldcring. There are mighty hands working the diplomatic wires hidden at pre > ont , but certain to bu developed within a few days. The solemn protestations of Russia that she was ignorant ot the impending ousting of Alexander deceives no one. There is every reason to believe tiial Germany and Austria were cogni/- ant of the. approaching stroko. England alone was in undoubted ignorance of Russian designs , * % The uproar in Bulgaria bids fair to ex tend to all Europe. It is now clear that a majority both of the Bulgarian army and people are loyal to the dethroned Alexander , and they show a decided dis position to contest forcibly the result achieved by Russian intrigue. An armed occupation of Bulgaria by Russia will probably bo necessary to maintain the advantage gained , and it wilt constitute nn act of aggression agsinst Turkey that the sultan cannot ignore. With Russia holding Bulgaria and forcibly crush ing its people into submission , and with Turkey's forces massed to defend Its bor ders , a conflict may be precipitated at any time into which England may be forced , however unwillingly. She does not want to furltt , but she must light whenever it becomes necessary to keep ( lie map of linssh1 from including Con stantinople. The Salisbury administra tion is unprepared for war , but when ever it becomes a question of "Britons holding their own , " English sentiment will force war , oven if England has only Turkey for an ally , since not to do so would be to leave Russia free to move on towards British India. The war between Russia and England must come ; the only question is one of time , and the time will como whenever Russia begins active operations for the dismemberment of Turkey. * * * The prospect of a long continuance of the tory ministry in England grows dis tinctly less. The liberals give signs of a purpose to become reconciled as soon as they can agree to a basis of reconcili ation. Both Lord Hartington and Mr. Chamberlain have taken their places on the opposition benches beside Mr. Glad stone , instead of sitting below the gang way , as is expected of unattached mem bers ; and both had a formal if not hearty welcome from the ex premier on the first day of the session. And all wings of the liberal party arc of the mind that some stop toward self-government must betaken taken in the case of Ireland , and that the tories should make known their inten tions at onco. They will probably bo challenged by Gladstone to that eli'ecl in the debate on the queen's speech , and November is the longest day that will bo given them for the purpose. This looks like business , and makes it not impossible that liberal votes will drive Lord Salisbury from power on this very issue , which he and his party regarded as such a Godsend. But it will not do for the liberals to leave the wishes of the homo rulers out of the account. Lord Hartington has given the public his word that ho will join no min istry which depends on the votes of Mr. 1'urnoll and his friends ; and without those votes no liberal ministry could exist. With the support of the homo rulers , the liberals of all shades have a majority of thirty-six ; without them they are in the minority by forty-nine. In this parliament , as in the last , nothing but the cooperation of the wings wit'i ' the tories can prevent Mr. Pmiol : ! from being the controlling intliionco. The minute the alliance between the two mar quises comes to an end , the homo rulers hold the balance of power. * Considerably more than four million persons had been , at the end of last year , insured against sickness under the Ger man law of compulsory insurance. At the beginning of 1880 the compulsion to insure was extended to the whole admin istration of the post , railway and tele graph , and to all trades connected with transportation ; and a movement is on foot to extend the principle still further. The introduction of the system has not led to any diminution in the number of friendly societies or trades unions , but many of them have had an enormous in- crease. > \ Tno unfortunate people of Biirmah are having a hard time. Since its annexa tion to British India the country has swarmed with irregular bands , who not only light the British troops in guerrilla fashion , but burn villages in the hands of the English and plunder whenever and whoever they can. On the other hand , the quiet people of the country are punished by the British if they side with the Dacoits , and trade is greatly domor- alixcd , Now a Hood in the Irrawaddy river has caused enormous loss and suf fering , In Mandalay , the capital of Bur- mah , 00,000 people have been driven from their homes. This was only partly destroyed a few months ago by lire , and its inlnhitunts must wonder what is com ing next. * * * D'l'ho Duke of Leicester , an Irish land lord , has , it is baid , arranged to sell to his tenant * a largo portion of Ins Kiidaro estates on a eighteen-year purchase plan. If such a liberal idea at this wcro to bo generally imitated by Irish landlords it would do away with the necessity of framing a land purchase bill , a measure which would stand as an obstruction to the legislative indepcndcnco for Ireland. The duke's proposal shows thatoneland- lord , nt lcist ; , is ixwafcd to tlio necessities of the hour , nml in kln4 there lies some encouragement. Consulering the lertll- Hy of the liuul the tc'pi-t ( of the proposi tion seem fair , nrul | there ought to bo ways nnd munns foinul by which the value of such nn experiment could bu thoroughly tested. Corea once more promises to become the eeutro of serious contention , the Mar quis Tseng's declaration that this pentn- sulu is nn Integral part of China , ami ns such will be defended from encroach- inent , being obviously Intended for Ktissia. The latter power's preliminary occupation of Port Lnx.aroll'has formed u menace too evident to bo Ignored , unil the ricilwiiosli declares that It will not bo abandoned. The excuse for seizins 1'ort Lazaroft" was the Eng lish oceniiation of Port Hamilton ! but the latter does not threaten annexations of tin ! mainland. St. Petersburg has a rumor that Cnina is linrr.yina Us military preparations , having ordered SOO.OOa villes from Kngland ; and , however this may bo , tlio Flowery Kingdom will tin- derstnnil that before loii it must cither yield Coroa to Russian aggression or fight for it. At Vladivostok Uu.s.siix has a nearer base than China commands for military and naval operations , besides n Corenn element in her Ustiri district whieh may be nsnd for jratiiing over the ponulntion of the peninsula. The loot brought back by the lirltish : irmy , whieh recently conquered the kingdom of Hnrmah in the interests of piety anil good government , has been sold in Calcutta for 100,000 rupees. Thus it is again made manifest that virtue is its own reward. AVlmt tlio Hoe Would hilcu to Know.

For the pro vision of law and the resort hatl to It are justly looked upon ns the possible be ginnings of n constitutional revolution In the method of electing members of our upper hmu-o. His of little consequence what thn result may be in the case of Mr. Van Wyck. But It U interesting to consider what would follow from a general copying of the Nebraska law in other states. Of course such a popular vote for senator could not have the least legal oflect. The constitution of the Unitdl States proscribes the method of chooMng senators , whleh must be by vote of the legislature. But it is quite possible to change the practical working of that provision , while leaving the letter of it unaltered , just us the original plan of committing the selection of a president to the personal choice of an electoral college has been completely overthrown , while the college Itself , ajid all the empty formalities accompanying ! ! , are retained us created by the. constitution. It is obvious that , If the states generally were to provide for nn informal ballot for United States seuator.al the slate election next preceding the expiration of n senatorial term , and if the people fcnor- ally were to avail themselves of this per mission , It would not bo long-Deforo stieh vote would como to bo considered morally binding upon the legislature , and the actual selection of senators bo tr.insfrroed to the people by direct ballot. It will , perhaj .s , bear considering whether there would bo more of gain or loss in such n possible pcacojul revolu tion. Of conr.se the theory of the con stitution , by which the lower house represents the aggregate of the people anil the upper house the states in their political capacities , would bo entirely set aside. But there is not a great deal loft of it anyway. With the destruction of the notion of state sovereignty , tlio stale , as a itictor in national all'uirs , lost its chief importance anil prerogative. For local matters the .state is as .supremo as eyer. At Washington the state cuts an extremely small ligure. The change in this particular , therefore , would bo mores tonual and less actual tnan at lirst appears. Moreover , there have been forces at work for some time to commend the notion to a very different reception from what it would have met a short time ago. The dissatisfaction with the senate and with the sort of material that gets into it under tiie present system is real and profound. The spreading custom of selecting millionaire ligure- heads for what ought to bo the most dignified and important representative position , reserved for the most ex perienced and ablest citi'/en of a state , has shorn the senatorial olliee of some of its dignity and respect in the eyes of the people. The apparent disregard of the .senate for that public opinion lo _ which it hardly considers itsell responsible , as shown in the refusal to auollsh secret sessions and in the .standing custom of subordinating every public interest to the demands of "senatorial courtesy , " lunc started an agitation not entirely to be despised , for the abolition ot the senate. That , of course , is both undesir able and impossible , since the constitu tion declares I hut no state shall , without its own consent , be. deprived of its equal representation in the senate. But the discontent would be satisfied if the upper house wcro to be made , ns the lower now is , practically responsible in the first in stance to public opinion. All will depend - pond upon the extent to which future legislatures voice the popular will in senatorial elections , and the extent to which the senate itst.lf concludes to sub mit its large independence to that will. If the membership and conduct of that body should continue to exhioit the changes marked in the last do/.on years , it would not bo at all surprising to find a general adoption of the Nebraska idea , anil a popular determination which would compel legislatures to observe , in electing senators , the choice thus indi cated in advance. An Immense Electrical World : When the great iron tower , 1,000 foot high , was proposed some time ago for the Paris exhibition of 18SO. many engineers doubted the feasibility of the project , judged from their point of view. However , M. Eiffel went tit the project and evolved a tie- sign whicii was chosen ami which it is proposed to execute. On the eve of ac complishment , however , a French savant comes forward with a timely warning of the fearful consequence which the building of the tower will entail. _ Ho sa.\.s that the cnjrmous blocks of iron running north and south would become polari/.i'ti , and that this polari/.ation will .soon invade tlio whole column. Then who knows whether the four lifts , with their continual friction , will not increase tlie magnetic influence a hundred fold , In this ease all articles for a mile round will bo attracted to the tower , and will adhere to it as a need ) < uloes to a magnet. Then all the houses in Paris will suffer from a St. Vitus's dance , and being grad ually drawn toward the Cham ] ) do Mars , will finally lind themselves stuck to the tower. As for locomotives entering Paris , it will bo impossible to slop them at the various termini ; they will rush through the city and dash themselves to pieces against the center of attraction.
