To-day Uvo prcaldont bl the United Slnlos nlll for n short tlmo bo the guest of Omaha. When ho arrives hero ho will have reached the limit of his jour ney westward , though ho will have penetrated - otratod llttlo beyond what is now recog nized aa the eastern boundary of the great west. Onward toward the setting ting sun stretches n vast territory , from the larger part of which states are yet to bo carved out , and which will in tlmo give homos to millions of people , with bustling cities , every variety of indus try , productive farms , and all the pos- Ecssions and conditions of the highest forms of civilization. Iloro , indeed , is the gateway to this great region with nil its rich stores ol developed and undeveloped wealth , which within another Generation is to contribute immeasurably to tbo pvonpor- ity of the nation. In this young , vigorous and growing metropolis Mr. Cleveland will find one of the best evidences that has boon pro- Ecntcd in his journey of what American energy and enterprise can accomplish , Wo take it that ho has not failed to in form himself regarding the history ol Omaha , the youngest city of ita popula tion , wealth and commercial impor tance on the continent , but observation will do moro than till the facts and fig ures ho could glean to convince him that hero indeed is ouo of the phenome nal developments of the last twenty years. Having a personal in- tercbt in ' Omaha , Mr. Cleveland will not fail to duly consider what has boon accomplished toward making this u great city in order that ho may esti mate the possibilities of the future. lie will hardly flnd It possible to regard the outlook otherwise than mobt oncourug- ing.Omaha Omaha will give the president a most cordial and sincere welcome. This community yields to no other in iti respect for the presidential oQlce. Mr. . Cleveland may find hero loss of thai wildly demonstrative enthusiasm than ho has encountered at some othoi points on his trip , but ho will have nc reason to doubt the heartiness of his re ception or the earnestness of his wel come. Every citizen , regardless of polit ical afllliations , will join in paying honoi to the chief executive of the republic And the handsome , accomplished am amiable wife of the president will receive ceivo her full share of the popular in tercHt and attention. She has filled hei position with a modest dignity that re fleets honor on American womankim and bus justly commended her to mil verwil admiration. . Omiihu is decorated in the emblem of liberty and union , and extends t < the president of the Untied States it heartiest and sineerebt welcome. The Nclmislui Domoeriioy. In the face of nioro than twenty-fivi thousand majority and without tin faintest shadow of hope to carry tin btato , the Nebraska democracy havi again gone through the farce of nomi luting a state ticket. The btundari bearers have the proud satisfaction am absurauco that their memory is to b umbulmcd for all time in tbo politicti almanacs for 18SS. It is not our pur pose at Ibis time to review thei past career or discuss their fit nodd for the positions whicl nolxxly in or out of the convention c > pects them to fill. Sufilce It to say thti homo men are born great while othei have grcatnobs thrust upon them. The platform of the Nebraska dcmoc racy abounds in the time-worn plat : tudes "that palter with us in a doubl tense ; that keep tbo word of promise t our ear , and break it to our hopo. With the exception of its ondorsemer of the national democratic adminibtn tion , it is almost literally a stereotype copy of the platforms for which Dr. Milk hns hold letters patent for moro Urn fifteen years. 31 r. lluiulull and tlioTarifT. Just before his departure from Wnbl ington for Atlanta , Mr. Itandnll.wns ii dueed to say something about the tarif though it was very little. Ho woul not discuss propositions that may com before congress next winter , and r < ferred to his , woll-lcnown views on rovi nuo matters as a sufficient answer I nil inquiries regarding his future coursi Ho did venture so far , however , as 1 fray that ho is in favor of revision , bi opposed to the destruction of the tarif Ho also reaffirmed his position respcc ing the internal revenue taxes , whic ho desires abolished because they ai war Ui.xcs and are opH | > sod the genius i the government. There is really nothing reassuring ! this last conversation of M Randall. It does not him that his views or intentions have ui dorgouo any change , or afford ar ground for expecting that his tittitui on this question in the next oongro will bo different from that ho hold i tbo last two congresses. . His claim th ho has been prepared for bovoral yea to assist In the revision of the tariff worth very little in view of the cha actor of the revision ho desires. Tl plan of Mr. Randall , like that of all tl protectionists , is not the plan whii would give the necessary relief totl people. Ho has not and will not pr pose a reduction of duties on tho.so an clcs which are necessities in eve homo and on every farm in the Ian but on the contrary has and will co tlnuo to oppose any such reduetio Jubt what ho would bo willing yield , in order to accompli the abandonment of the in ten : revenue taxes , cannot bo stated wi certainty , but it can be very confident said that it would not include ire lumber , coal , salt , cotton .and wool goods , or any ouo of thorn. Yet a ro' which should entirely oxclu them would give very little relief the people. Mr. Randall * > ays ho is opposed to t destruction of the tariff. . How ma people docti ha know of who are IK But It is obvioiihly absurd to mainU that in orderto bavo it from destn .tion it is necessary to continue t present high and oppressive dutl Equally wanting in force is the ar { meat that the internal revenue tiu mustbe , abolished.because they are \ \ taxes and contrary to the genius of t govocauiont , . Tllooe taxe ai-o boi by tbo pcoplo without any eonso of liardsliip. They do not contribute to the advantage of any special in terests. They are paid directly into the public treasury , which derives all the benefit. Still those who demand a revision of the tariff in the diroctlon of lower duties are willing to concede the abandonment of a portion of the inter nal revenue taxes , but they are not wil ling that they shall bo all swept away , as the protectionists desire , BO that the rotontlon of the present tariff shall be come a necessity. The Indications are that Mr. Randall will bo found in the same policy of which ho 1ms always been the cham pion , and using all the power and skill of which ho is possessed in obstructing a jubt and necessary policy of revenue reform. The Grain Movement. The situation in the grain market during the past week slewed no im provement as to prices ever the previ ous two or throe wooks. The movement of grain toward the east is largely on the increase , however , nnd in BO mo quai'tors ; especially in the northwest , complaints are heard ever the inability or indifference of the railroads in sup plying cars as fast ns they are needed. Competition between the largo elevator companies nnd shippers of smaller lote has become very shap in consequence. The farmers claim that the elevator com binations got moro than their eharo ol the cars , while the la t tor orguo that they ought to have , because of the much greater bulk of grain to bo moved. Dakota wheat growers are discussing the feasibility of building and equipping n north and south road along the Minnesota boundary to reach the wheat markets , to bo operated for their own benefit exclusively. They hope by this means to avoid paying the largo tributes to the railroad monopolies now exacted , and thereby seouro greater profits from agricultural labors than they now ob tain. Moro extended co-operation among the farmers of tbo country would no doubt result in bringing many of tlic monopolies , _ now preying upon them to terms. IT would perhaps bo a good thing foi tbo democracy and for the country ii Cox of Now York should bo given the chairmanship of tbo ways and moam coinmitteo of the next house of repre sentatives , instead of .Mills of Texas. Mr. Cox has not distinguished himsoll in connection with questions of finance and revenue , and would probably nol have an inordinate ambition to do so Ho would therefore doubtless bo tracts bio and willing to give fair attention te the views of other men wiser on the subject tluui ho. Mr. Mills , on the con trary , has very radical views which he thoroughly believes in , and ho is the sort of man to insist upon his opinions There would bo rather more llkelihooc of something being accomplished i Cox were at the head of the way ! and means coinmitteo than if tlu Texas congressman were in that post tion. It will not bo an easy matter however , to ignore the claims of Mills and the chances are largely in his favor It is current surmise that there will b < some changes in the republican mem bership of the committee in order tha the now members who must bo ap pointed shall not bo too greatly overbalanced balanced by the experience and epociu ability of such men as Kelley , Rood an < McKinley. If it is the intention of thi administration , however , to direct thi jolicy to bo pursued so far as the rove uio question is concerned , it may uotbi of very great importance how the way ind means committee is made up. TIIKHIS is very little probability tha Mr. Conkling will reappear in politics ; mt tbo report that ho is being vigor ously urged to do so by prominent re [ mblicaiiB of Now York is by no mean Incredible. The unbounded obtcem c Ihc ox-Senator for General Grant woul lo ) very likely to give him a strong in lercst in behalf of Colonel Grant , wb is the republican candidate for score Lary of state , and this is said to bo th lever employed to bring the ox-scuato buck into the political arena. Were h to enter the campaign and Colonc Grant should win , it is easy to see tha the credit of victe > ry would go mos largely to Mr. Colliding and ho migli at will resume his position ns commanding power in the repul licau party. This would cei tainly not bo to the advar tago of Mr. Blaine , but it would appea that the leading republicans of No1 York are not solicitous on this poiul Nor should they bo. The first dut with them is to win the battle this fal which accomplished the task of th future will be a much loss difficult om Undoubtedly Mr. Conkling could cor tribute very greatly to this result , hi it is hardly to bo oxpootod that ho wi abandon his repeatedly expressed di termination never again to enter pol tics. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Dlllis collapses in the California an Bomo of Clio Kansas booms are roportei 3 Those tire accompanied by the usui J contradictions , but the indications ai that many of the cities which grew fi on booms during tbo bummer will con out very lean before spring.

The democratic state convention mot las evening at the board of trade hall with i largo representation present. Owing to thi limited space it was thought best to oxcludi . the general public , and admission was golncx only by ticket. At 8:30 : o'clock James K NdEih rapped the convention to order with i rcportorlal cuiio , and when order was secured cured , said : Gentlemen of the Convention : Thohoui has conic to call this convention , to order am It gives mo pleasure to call it to order. Dur Ing ray political life , which has been n von active ono for the last fifteen or * twenty years , I never met a democratic convcntloi where there was such unanimity o fooling an exists among the demo crats of this delegation. In the meeting of the state committee to-day , the unanimity was such that It was dlfllcult to get a man t ( muko a motion lest it should bo Intorprotct as evidence of a Job. There was ono inotlot inado , however , to appoint a temporary chair man , but that motion was withdrawn witt the understand Ing that the selection of thn officer should bo loft to the convention whcr it was called to order. That unanimity , " think , exists In this body , and when the dele gates Icavo the hall to-night they will do BI with the Impression thnt the object of thi party Is to beat republicans and not to flgh democrats. Marvin , of Gage , nominated Miles Zcnt mover , of Colfax , for temporary chairman and Mr. Zontrneyrr was eSeortcd to the chair Mr. North said they had present , in thi gallery , a feature of the Pawnee Indian baud which bo know the delegates would be glai to hear before he introduced the temporary chairman. The baud played "Marcltini Along" and was applauded. The temporary chairman wns introduce ! and thanked the convention for the honor. Low May , of Bodge , was elected temporary flocrotory , and U. P. Wahlqulst , of Rei Willow , assistant temporary secretory. Tobias Castor , of Saline , wanted the list o : the delegates as prepared by the secretary o : the state committee read and the delegate : seated. Mr. Woolworth , of Douglas , thought thi idea ought not to prevail. It would bo a bad precedent , The old established custom of t committee on credentials ought to bo adhere * to anel such a committee appolnte < to canvas tbo credentials presented Mr. North , of Platte , was of the samoopln ion and suggested that the committee consis of Jive delegates. Mr. Rosa , of Keith , did not sco the necesH ity of the proposed committee when then was no contest among the delegates. A close vote was talton nnd the chair decided cidod In favor of the affirmative. A divisioi was called for. Mr. North said that an examination am correction of the secretary's list would no require ten minutes , and when submitted , i Incorrect , might be corrected by the convcn tion. tion.Mr. . Ashby , of Gage , thought It would bo i bad precedent to dispense with the committoi on credentials. Mr. North's amendment prc vailed. A delegate wanted to know if proxiei would bo allowed , and the chair said tha would bo decided by the convention. The following committee was appointed Messrs. North of Platte , MoDonough of Val ley , Castor of Saline , , Ashby of Gago-am Bo.vlo of Buffalo. The convention then indulged in calls fo Grcon , Woolworth , May , McShano , Miller O'Day and a host of others to entertain i with a speech. These celebrities , howevoi modestly remained under cover. Later i was announced that the committee would rt qiiiro some time to finish its work , whcrcnpoi the chair induced Mr. Frank P. Ireland , o Otoo , to doff his coat and come forward t speak. The colonel for a few minutes enter taiuod the convention in an eloquent speech which was loudly applauded. Mr. Woolworth was then called nnd in i happy speech referred to the early history o the democratic party in Nebraska from earl ; territorial days to the present. Ho congrot ulated the party on its progress and closci with a tribute to President Cleveland. The report of the committee on credential was then read. There were no contests , bu the counties of Chase , Chcyenno , Cherry Gosper , Wheeler , ArthurGrant , McPhersoii Thomas and Sioux wcro not represented. On motion of Mr. Hustin , of Douglas , tb report was adopted. On motion of Mr. Alloy , of Saline , thi temporary organization was inado perina ncnt. ncnt.Mr. . Walbach moved that the convcntloi proceed to nominate a Justice of the suprom court. The motion prevailed. On motion of Tobias Castor a committee o five on resolutions was appointed. It consis to of Castor of Saline , Woolworth of Douglu ; O'Day of Antelope , Allen of Adams , an Cli'gg of Richardson. ' Delegates with resolutions for the plotfon wcro permitted to hand them to the commit tee without debate. A delegate from Blaln wanted something In the platform about th school laws which would help bachelors o that county. Somebody suggested the cole nization of old molds. The chairman of each delegation wosav thorizcd to announce the vote of the same. Mr. North nominated Thomas O'Day , c Antolopo. Judge McKelghan , of Webster , nominate John M. Ragan , of Adams. Mr. Canada , of Otoo , nominated George Doane , of Omaha. Mr. Hubbell , of Jefferson , nominated O. Hamblo of the same place.
