tlio experience gained as a law inaki
in both houses of the legislature and i
acting president of the upper branc
during the last session. His legislulh
record has been clean and his reputi

irreproachable. As secretary
state Mr. Laws has earned h
endorsement for a second term by tl
faithful discharge of the responsible d

the candidate for treasurer , stands bin
as a man of probity and comes equippc

With the exception of the plank tin
demands the submission of the quostic
of a prohibitory amendment to the coi
s'titution , the platform will commend i
self generally as sound doctrine f <
republicans. The insertion (
the plank pledging the repul
licans in the next legislature to vote fi
submission is ill advised and calculate
to embarrass tlio candidates for tlio lej
islaturo in every district where publi
sentiment is adverse to any nttoni ]
to tinker with prohibition , li
state convention resolution ca
override the obligations of roprcsoi
tntives in the legislature to cast the
voteson temperance legislation contrai
to the known wishes of their iinmodiai
constituents. The proper platte
to pass resolutions instructing eai
didates for the legislature i
to their course on any issi
is the county or district convention.
On the subject of trusts and pools an
on railroad regulation the platform do <
not speak with an uncertain sound. Tl
demand for a uniform law making nit
hours a legal working day in Nobraski
the recommendation to establish an ai
nual labor day , and the demand for lav
that will prevent tlio importation an
employment of Pinkerton morcoiiario
will bo received favorably by working
men and should meet the approval of a
classes of citixens. With respect to tli
national issues the platform is in accor
with the position taken by the nationr
convention and republicans in tlio ni

The intimations thrown out in tl
senate during the discussion of the flsl
orios treaty , that the president contoi :
plated a policy of retaliation purs
anco of the authority given him 1
congress , should the treaty bo rojoctt
and the Canadian authorities rosun
an attitude of hostility to Amcricn
fishermen , nro shown by the messaj
sent to congress on Thursday to luu
been well founded. Mr. Cleveland ni
nounces in language as plain and dire
as could bo desired that he shall IK
hesitate upon proper occasion to 01
force the act of the la
congress , authorizing him undi
certain defined circumstances 1
proclaim commercial non-intercoun
with Canada , and ho urges that if tl
occasion shall arise for doing this tl
policy of retaliation should bo unlim
ted in its scope and vigorous in Us pro
edition. Llis suggestion is that if
shall become necessary for this govori
mont to act in the way contemplated i
blows should bo struck so hard and i
earnestly as to hurt.
In order that this may bo done M
Cleveland calls upon congress for add
tional legislation enlarging his pow <
to put in execution such a retail )
lory policy us ho thinks wi
bo most effective in doir
the greatest amount of damage to Cm
ada. The existing act ho regards as ii
adequate and not likely to produce tli
results whiuh would bo expected from
policy of retaliation. It cannot I
denied that ho reasons the case wol
but ho does not carry absolute eonvl
tion of tlio necessity of going any farth (
at this time than Uo has the author !
to do under the act of congress passe
in March , 1887. If necessity shoul
arise , before the second session of tli
prcsent.congross assembles , for docla
Ing non-intercourse the oxpod
oncy of more drastic logisl
tion could bo inoro judiciously dote
mined than now , and the next session i
congress is not fur oil. The America
people will approve every effort of tl
government to assort and mnintai
their rights guaranteed by treaty , b >
there is no anxiety to aggravate tl
issue to the point of hostilities. Whc
it shall bo shown that the just and re
sonablo authority given the prosidoi
to retaliate by a policy of partial noi
intercourse is not effective In indm
ing Canada to respect the righ
of American- citizens , it wl
then bo llmo enough to pn
vide a more summary way i
dealing with our obstinate and obtu :
northern neighbors. If the prcsldon
will do his full duty under the author
ity ho has H is more than probable thn
there will bo no necessity for grantitij
him larger powers.
It is impossible to determine wholh'c
Mr. Cldvcland's menace to Canada I
ontlryly sincere , and llisplrod by a
earnest doslrtj to protect the rights c
American citizens , or was prompted n
a political move designed to reivssur
the waning confidence of a class <
voters especially hostile to all Knglls
interests. It is altogether natural thn
tlio latter construction should bo pi
upon it , in view of the past toleration i
outrages which uro confessed in tli
message. It may not bo a long time be
fore the question of the president's sii
eerily is tested. Canadian papers sn
that Canada has no alternative but t
revert to the stipulations of the convoi :
tion of 1818 , and undoubtedly this wi
bo done. The president's menace wi
bo mot with defiance , and measured 1.
pledges of British support , alreaf
promised by leading English papers c
certain to bo given , the Canadian at
thoritios will renew the past policy an
reopen the difficulty in a pel
haps more hostile form than bi
fore. It will then bo seen whether Mi
Cleveland really intends to use th
authority given him for assorting th
rights of American citl/.ons , or hi
merely made a bid for votes and pri
pared to justify non-action by the cluii
that his authority is not adcquati
Meanwhile there is reason to bolie\
that this matter may force an issue tin
will profoundly interest the whol

It is very evident that the stockhoh
ers of tlio Chicago , Burlington fc Quino
railroad are disbtUislled with the polic
of its directors , and there may b
something in the rumor that Get
oral Manager Stone will bo rcquesto
toresli'ii , and that the promotion i
Mr. lloldrego of our city will follow.
The bad financial showing of the rou
since tlio engineers' strike , the ui
promising future , and the utter failur
of the management to compromise th
difficulty , huvo frightened the stocli
holders to sound a retreat from th
position taken up by the directors tini
the general management. When th
bold front was as-mined against the en
ginecrs it was the boast ot the director
that the contest would bo short am
sharp , and end with complete victor ,
for the road. The stockholders wer
encouraged with glowing statements
The fight against the engineers was on
in whicli the brotherhood would lear
that the company was master of the sit
nation. To concede the demands <
the engineers would bo a confession c
weakness. Under the generalship (
Mr. Stone the Burlington wont into th
contest with a full treasury and lluslie
with confidence.
It has oomo out , after six months , dc
feated at every point , and with a del
cionoy in its treasury unparalleled i
the history of railroading. The sitiui
tion seems at present to warrant
change in the disastrous policy of th
road. If Manager Stone arid the dire <
tors can extricate the company from it
difficulties , and can make such concc :
sions to the brotherhood as will estal
lish cordial relations , tlio Burlingto
will emerge from the light as gracefull ,
as it can.
If tliis cannot consistently bo done
tlio stockholders , clamorous for thei
dividends , may bo expected to put ui >
now nmnatromont , and in that case , un
doubtedly Mr. Holdrego would bo th
choice. Ho is said to have the conl

all along deprecated the stand take

11ATHS TO SOUTH OMAHA.
HowOur ilolilici-s Propose to Slilp t <
Our Young Neighbors.
A paragraph appeared in Thursday's Hii :
speaking of alleged discrimination by th
jobbers of this city against the retail dealer
in Soutn Omaha. A Ucu reporter called o
several of the former to ascertain in wlia
the discrimination. At Paxton & Gallagher'
Mr. Easson stated that ho had made in
quirics concerning the matter , because , s
far as lie knew the houses of this city wcr
in no wise acting unjustly to their customer
beyond the limits , Ho found that the com
plaint was based upon tlio cartage , which th
jobbers wore compelled to charge for tin
shipment of goods to South Omoha. A mer
chant from tlmt place , said Mr. Easson
would como to town , order u barrel of sugar
several barrels of salt , a box ef to
nmtoes , ami want them shipped immediately
The house would bo compelled t <
forward them , as soon as possible , b ;
wagon. It would tuku several hours tl
make the trip , and tlie shipping firm wouli
boclwrgod for the service at the rate of li
cents per 1UO. This price tlio house ulmrguc
up to the buyer. It could scarcely do other
wise , lu some things the profits were si
small that they could easily bo eaten up bj
this tariff. A way to overcome the objcctioi
was for the retail man to do his own haul
ing , as many of the retail merchants in
Omaha did. All of the latter , however , dii
not do this. As a consequence there wu1
still in force a custom introduced many yean
ago when the boundaries of the city ou th (
north and south wore Cuming and Pacific
that of the wholesalers delivering goods
free of charge. This is foreign to tin
custom in all largo cities. These the retailer *
call for or pay for the cartage of tlioir pur
cluises. The retention of this custom cos
Bomoof the houses $20) ) u month. Thu Inttei
were all oppose to it , and eventually It woule
bo set aside.
Mr. Eusson said that his firm bad been t (
see Mr. Mi-Cliutock , of the Union 1'uoilli
road , as had also some other jobbing firms
mid suggested the placing of a cur for u nn
on Monday , Wednesday and Friday or overj
day in the week if required , for the ship
mcnt of goods to South Omaha. In this < -ui
all the firms could store away their goods
Mr. McClintock agreed to the proposition
and ull the Jobbers will bo requested to ] oir
In tlio se-hemo , and it may yet result m all o
them contributing , pro rutu , to tlio expense
af the scheme , whicli at current rate * wil
be 10 cents per 100 pounds.
