N. ] ' . I'KIL Notary 1'uullc. Tin : democrats arc finding it a pretty hard tusk holding their breath until Mr. Mc.Shuno accepts. It' the nir smells of burnt powder nowadays , it can be laid to the burning of campaign oratory nlglitly in every ward and precinct of the city. Tiitiinnn who doesn't hold a federal ofllco these days is a mighty lucky fel low. Ho isn't obliged to contribute to the democratic campaign fund. IN U.r. the arrangements for the dis play of our industries , whether on the Htrcot or on the exposition grounds , South Omaha products should be given duo prominence. PiMNCK\VAUi.MAU : of Denmark is said to hesitate about accepting the crown of Bulgaria. It is very evident that the prince never heard of Mr. Sampson of Omaha. Tin : dilly-dallying policy of the Sioux commissioners at Crow Creek , coupled with the growing reluctance of the In dians to sign the treaty , argues no bet tor swccess for the commissioners than nt Standing Rock. IN si-rri : of all efforts to displace the Avoodon sidewalks on Farnatn und Doug las streets before the 1st of September , there are still a number of business places disfigured by plunk walks. The owners are nearly all moasbacks and non-residents. Tnrc national greenback party will hold its convention in Cincinnati on the liJth instant. When It has made its nominations there will bo nine presi dential tickets in the Hold. Surely no voter can fail this year to find a party und a ticket to his taste. THEKK are four hundred pensioners in Douglas county , according to the report of Pension Commissioner Black , drawIng - Ing in the aggregate , $11,477 qimrtorly. Assuming that the four hundred dis abled veterans draw their pay regularly , the average amount of each pension paid once every four months istwonty- eight dollars and sixty-nine cents. IT is admitted that the democratic ( wuilo at Lincoln wna a grand success , end it is conceded that the democratic Btato ticket is made up of respectable men. But nobody outside of an insane asylum will for n moment contend that there is a ghobt of a chance to boat Gov ernor Thayer for re-election , oven if nil the bar'ls in Nebraska wore tapped. Dit. Gicoiton L. Mn.uni has allowed himself to bo interviewed as to demo cratic prospects this fall. But it is very poor comfort that ho holds out for Cleveland. "Ho will win , but only by the hardest kind of lighting steadily maintained , " ia a sorry udmission for the doctor \vljo comes directly from democratic headquarters in Now York. THE democrats of the Fortieth sena torial district of Kansas have nomi nated lion. S. S. KoynoUis to represent them In the upper house of the Kansas legislature. Mr. Reynolds will ho remembered - momborod as a stalwart anti-monopo list who represented Butler and Polk counties in the Nebraska senate of 188 ; ! , with signal ability and unllinutiing fidelity to his constituents and the pee ple. If Mr. Reynolds is elected wo can safely predict that ho will bo found true as stool and 11 rm as a rock on the vital issues that concern the producers and industrial classes. Tun house committee on private lands has taken the Maxwell land question in luuid and will Immediately propose such legislation as will relieve innocent got- tlora in that territory from the injustice of the Maxwell company. From all ro- jwrta the people of that district are law abiding and wore stirred up to defend their homes only by the policy of evic tion adopted by the company. To turn euch Bottlers out of house und homo is odious to all principles of equity and foreign to our American ideas of right und wrong , It is therefore proper for congress to tnko up the settlement of the question and extend to those sai lor * whatever rights they uro justly entitled - titled to enjoy. In the meantime both the Maxwell company nnd the settlers have refrained from acts of violence and uro willing to submit the question to the-arbitrament of congress. Another Treaty KallurC. If the news by way of London an nouncing Unit the Chinese government hns rejected the last treaty submitted to it , shall bo confirmed , there will be no regret among the people most Inter ested in the matter , the o of the Pacific coast. By a very largo majority they regard the present treaty as being more fa\orabloto restriction than the one Mr. Cleveland und Mr. Bayard have endeavored to mibstltuto for it. If the now treaty is rejected thoio Mould un- doubtedlj follow an earnest etTort to carry out the provisions of the old treaty. No such ollort , according to trustworthy Pa cific coast authority has yet been made. Especially while the negotiation of the now treaty was going on the existing regulations were almost wholly ignored , or if attempted to bo carried out by one class of officials the attempt was de feated by another class. There will bo a very strong effort made , in the event of the rejection of the now treaty bj the Chinese government , to change this state of affairs , and it is to bo supposed that in the picscnt disposition of both parties in congress there would be an eager iivalry to pa"-s an exclusive law. The question having invndod the domain of politics , both parties in con gress u 111 be controlled mainly by the consideration of party advantage on the Pacific coast. Anticipating the rejection of the treaty , the democrats are charging the responsibility on the senate amend ments. They claim that as originally submitted to the senate the treaty \sould have been accepted by the Chinese gov ernment. It is sulllcienl reply to this to Baj that the lending democratic papers of California pointed out some of the defects which the senate amendments corrected , and unquestionably the treaty was improved by the-,0 changes , though not to the advantage of the Chinese government. There will bo a very general feeling of relief when this somewhat perplexing question , which should bo treated solely on business principles , is finally settled. Tlio September Sta o . Two states , Vermont nnd Maine , hold a general election this month , the for mer to-morrow and the latter one week from to-day. Vermont is so securely republican that the democrats make very little effort there. Two years ago the republican plurality was over twenty thousand In a lot.il vote of fifty-seven thousand , and nobody expects it to be less this year. The democrats , however , have been somewhat hopeful of Miiine , and therefore have made a very \ igor- ous canvass in that state. They liuvo sent a number of speakers there , and it was at one time proposed Unit Mr. Cleve land himself should visit the state with a view to invigorating the zeal of the democracy and perhaps attracting to its tanks whatever wavering clement there may bo. On the part of the re publicans the campaign ban been under the leadership of Mr. Blaine since his icturn , and very little activity on either side had been manifested pre vious to that. The tariff nnd the fish eries questions have been the issues chiefly talked about , in both of which the Maine people are very much in terested. It is hardly to bo expected that u majority of them will vote in favor of any surrender as to either of those issues , and it i 5 therefore a little difficult to understand upon what the democrats base a hope of carrying Maine this year. They have a popular candidate for governor in Mr. Putnam , who was a member of the commission that framed the fish eries treaty and who is fully committed to the Mills bill , but if ho were much moro popular ho could hardly , under existing circumstances , overcome the nearly thirteen thousand republican plurality of two years ago. The strong probability ib that both Vermont and Maine will show a con siderably increased republican vote. Tlio Stand and Deliver Policy. The Kansas state board of railroad commissioners has boon called upon to adjudicate a peculiar though not an uncommon complaint against a railroad company. The clti/ons of Tyrone , a little town in Sowaul county of that state , have preferred charges against the Rock Island , setting forth that the. road has conspired to ruin the town and build up a rival started by the company. It is alleged in the petition that officers of the Rock Island demanded that the town site of Tyrone und other ground's bo given to the railroad. To this the people of Tyrone demurred , when thu officials built up another town fivomile.s back and refuse to operate the railroad to Tyrone , the present terminus of the lino. This is probably the first case of the kind brought directly to the atten tion of the Kansas railroad commission ers. For that reason it will bo watched with great interest. In Nebraska sev eral cases of such action on the part of railroads is on record , notably that of Wymoro and Blue Springs. The evil complained of by the people of Tyrone is an old one. The highway man's trick of holding up a now town and making it "stand and deliver" is not confined to Kansas nor to the Rock Island. It has been successfully prac ticed by other roads in every western state as well. Many a town and city in Nebraska can attest to its sorrow the blood-money which railroads have wrung out of It. It was give , give , give , and tin-cuts of ruin if lands , bonds nnd subsidies wore not immediately forth coming. Whatever may bo the merits of the Tironocaso , it is fortunate that the people of Kansas uro going to muko a test of this species of blackmail. There are rights to which towns along the line of u railroad mo entitled nnd which semi-publie corporations must respect. It will therefore bo in line with the duty of the Kansas railroad commis sioners in the Tyrone cnso laid before them to dollno such rights , und to sug gest , if necessary , such legislation as will secure towns dependent on rail roads , immunity from their extortion. llutlor In Aotlvo Service. The reappearance of General Benja min F. Butler in the political arena is an event of some interest. It la certain to give a spice and flavor to the cum- palgn , oven if Iho efforts of the general should npt extend beyond Atas uchu- setts , which no other man could supply. Butler's intellectual individuality is not less marked than his physical. Ho is a peculiar personage all round , nnd there fore in uny circumstances interesting. He can always command nn audience , for the general has the ability to say sharp and clover things. Nobody will deny that ho has brains. The dilllculty that interferes with his usefulness is , that nobody believes ho bus uny con firmed convictions or principles. His political career has been moro check ered than that of uny other man in tno country. Ho has been in nearly all parties und un extremist in each. He was the most radical of democrats be fore the war , subsequently acted with the republican party , and four years ago was the presidential candidate of the labor party. In these several polit ical or party relations General Butler exhibited a ? eal that interested the country , but lie could never dissipate the general belief that his zeal always hud primary reference to personal ad vantage. In returning to nctivo political service General Butler has taken u po sition hostile to the democratic party. His chief labor will be to defend the policy of protection , and it is not to bo doubted that ho will oxcit some inllu- once with the working men of the country. Ho opened his canvass in Boston lust Friday and scored some toll ing points ugtiiiift Mr. Cleveland nnd the Mills bill. Referring to the Ush- eries question Go.101 al Butler said ho agreed with the president that the bill giving him power of retaliation was a poor bill , but he thought it necessary for the president to act under that bill in order to show that he is in earnest. "If he will do that , " said Butler , "he will show that his paper is the message of a statesman and not of n campaigner on the stump"a .sentiment quite in line with the now nearly universal opinion. General Butler is very likely to in ject into the campaign a great deal of matter that will bo especially interest ing to the democracy. Tin : opinion of Judge Fill rail sitting as chancellor at Iowa City in the case of the Rock Island against the Iowa state railway commissioneis merely re- afllnns the decision bunded down : i few weeks ago in the Alinnesota case. It is in effect that the stale board has ijo constilulional authority to establish rates for a common currier which were lee low to cover their operating ex penses and llxcd charges. The .ruling in the Minnesota case was that a com mon carrier is entitled to a fair re muneration over and above its neces sary expenses. With this doctrine no reasonable person will iliul fault. Railroads arc entiled to fix rales sufll- ciont to pay a fair interest on the money actually invested. But western roads are not honestly built and fairly capi- tuliyod. This point the learned judges evidently overlooked. Consequently unfair advantage is taken of the piople by railroads in exacting an interest on an inllatod capitalisation of fifty Ihou- feund dollars a mile when in reality Hie road can be built and equipped for fifteen thousand to twenty thousand dollars a milo. It is just hero whore nine-tenths of the tioublo be tween Iho railroads in their relations with the people springs. The con struction companies and inside rings in railroad corporations are making big money out of every mile of road built und s.uldlo the load on the backs of the people. Lot the actual capitalization of railroads bo determined , and lot the law us propounded by Judge Fuirall bo applied , and no one will begrudge these common carriers to earn (5 ( per cent on their capital invested. FIIOM all reports the Deep Water con vention at Denver was not a most har monious galhoring. It became appar ent from the beginning that the Texas delegation was split into two factions which was made evident by the many acrimonious und personal debates , cul minating finally in the submission of a majority and minority report on resolu tions. Thu majority report adopted by the convention recommended the im provement of Arun&usbuy. The minority report wus content to leave the selec tion of n hurbor to a board of competent engineers. In the wrunglo and tiiiso ) , the delegates from the ether states wore merely spectators , leaving the Texas people to light it out among themselve.- , . The sober reflection of the Nebraska , delegates , especially the members from Omahu , echoed the sentiment of the convention oulsido of Ihe Toxans. Dr. C. W. Connor , one of Nobruska's dele gates , well stated that it was thu opin ion of many that as the United Slalos waste to furnish Hie money , she should have something to say about the selection of the deep-water harbor. But this did not suit Iho majority of the delegates in the Lone Slur slate , and the conven tion humored them by submitting to their dictations. DKKINITK information of the manner in which DruinmoM1 day will bo cele brated during fair week is now given , and if the programme is carried out as arranged , u great treat is in store for visitors to the cilv. So many traveling men from all juris of Iho slalo have en thusiastically responded to the Invitations of the committee in charge that the present arrangements surpass the original plan of the project. The largo number of jobbing and manufacturing houses in the city huvo ulso taken a great interest in the affair.

It is time for sy tomatlo libelling of Iowa by the coroorations to stop. The malignant assaults upon lowu have been by the mouths of inlluontiul officers of the railroad corporations and by the eastern organs which Ilvo1 > y the favors of the corporations und repay the eumo by doing' their dirty work. Both together huvo. for months past malig nantly sought to fabrluato in the mind of the investing public in the east the idea that Iowa stands alone in anti-rail road radicalism and in aniireUlstlc mal ice towards all largo investments ol capital. Such grotesque falsehoods will not hurt Iowa , of course , for while foolish men may bo temporarily misled the great mass ot eastern investor * arc too intelligent to bo thus deceived. Their relations with the west are too intimate and their knowledge of the situation too accurate to admit of serious decep tion. Iowa will got all the monoj it wants or needs , and that , ton , on the very host terms , because its securities are known to bo of the highest order. Iowa in beyond the reach of permanent Injury at the hands of railroad angry corpora tions , or of their wn-vants or tools. But Blunder will react on the * slan derers. It is not in human nattiro to belied lied about as the in-oplo of Iowa have boon Hod about by railroad cranks and foci kindly toward the liars , cranks though they lie. The vice of these miserable-Blunders is that they produce Irritations and tend to excite the proj- udift's of the people almost to as un reason able a pitch as that to which the prejudice * ) of the corMralioii8 | ) ha\o run. There is thus fomented the asoorbtty of strife , where there should be calm dealing. What the corporations above all things need is just what the people of Iowa are most disposed to give them reasonable , consorvutivo , generous , judicial treatment. But hero are the corporations stirring up strife by ob streperous , malignant and slanderous assaults upon the people. Such a pol icy Is folly , mndness , imbecility , and especially it is so oven from the stand point of the railroad corporations. There is no use in bandying words about the matter. The people of Iowa are irrevocably committed and resolved to enforce "tho policy of the legal con trol of railways , ' to use the language of the republican platform , which is a fair statement of the purpose of nine-tenths of the voters of all parties. The rail road corporations may not like it. They do not like it. In the history of the world no selfish despot has willingly yielded power. But that doesn't make any dilTeronce as to the fact , the corpo rations hnvo got to como down to a plane of responsibility under the law. Whether thov likoitor not it is insanity to dash themselves against thostone wall of fact. To refuse to recogni/.o the stone wall , and to hasten their rush against it with the impetus of passion is only to hurt themselves the moro in the collision. . And the corporations have got to yield to the law not only in Iowa , but also throughout the west. Public sentiment in Towa , as emphatic ns it is. is not so emphatic as in soim- other western states. The resolutions adopted by the late Iowa republican convolution are moderation itself as compared with those of the Nebraska con volition. The democratic state convention of Missouri the other day spoke in terms oven more vigorous. Tlio same feeling is abroad potentially in Kansas and Minnesota. The next legislatures of all these states , which already have railroad legislation practically as stal wart as Iowa. , will enact laws far moro stringent. They will do this just as sure as fate. There is no power on earth to prevent the speedy subjugation of the railroad corporations to rigid ac countability before the law throughout the west. And what are the railroad corpora tions , or those who are empowered to speak for the corporations , doing to meet this day of judgment which is surely and swiftly coming ? Are they deporting themselves to nlTcct furornbly the mind of the people , who are at once prosecutor , judge and jury1 Oh , no ; nothing of the sort. They are slander ing loWa , slandering everybody who does not stand for the policy of railroad superiority to public control or irre sponsibility before the law. ft is very seldom that the party who is standing before the bar will smite in the mouth of the judge , and then will expect favorable judgment. The Talent Out of Inick. Now York Mail and Express : The racing season of 1888 at Monmouth park will remain green in the memory of race-goers ( or many years to como. No such reversal of public form in racing has been over known. Favorite after favorite huvo gone down to defeat. Im itation race horses have beaten the cracks. Men with wide experienceand with facilities for obtaining useful in formation , have found their knowledge worthless. A man who knows little of racing went to Monmouth park on Sat urday and picked live winners out of six. lie named Paragon to defeat Sir Dixon , mid selected Maroon and othei- such chances , and was successful every time. No wine , person with any knowl edge of racing would have done this. Turfmen and veteran race goers would have laughed at anybody who selected Parui'on in his crippled condition to de feat Sir Dixon. What happened on Saturday has hap- ponml on nearly every day of the Moil- mouth races , and happened again yes terday. The safest way to name the winners is to put the names of the horses in a hat and pick out a name nt random. Owners , trainers and jockeys can not account for the in and out run ning of the horses. The thoroughbreds have not only depleted the pockets of the general body of race-goers , but have almost ruined a do/on horse own ers. No reliance can bo placed on pri vate trials or public forms. Mr. Jen nings has had enough , und will sell Diniboyon and his other race horses. Appleby & Johnson are thousands of dollars some nay $ (50,000 ( behind the season , nnd will sell all their horsus. Mr. J. B. Iliiggin , a loser of moro than iK > 0,000 , by the erratic running of his her cs , will sell twenty of them In ten days or two weeks. Captain S. S. Brown will reduce his stable , and if his ill luck continues will retire , Theno are only a few of the heavy losers. The mishap to the horses in the Pittsburg stable alone would make a very intor- ooting column of reading , and there seems to bo no end to the misfortunes that continue to crowd on the horse men. men.Look at the once all powerful Dwyer stable. It is u wreck. The owners of it , Michael and Philip Dwyer , are ut terly unable to win a race at Monmouth Park. Hanover , Pontiaoand Inspector B. are on the retired list. The throo- j ear-old horses that nro not under hos pital treatment are not able to win the price of tholi feed. The mugnitlcent collection of two-year-old horses thut coat a fortune cannot win a Htnko , und the list of forfoitd keeps piling up into the thousands. When the Dwyors gotn horse fit to run they place their money on him , and ho finishes lust , or fur from front. If tha brothers wore not sports men of the gamcst sort they would re tire. They do not contemplate tills , however. They have made exceedingly heavy nominations to thu stakes of next your und the stakes of l&X ) .
