Thuyor and John A. MeShano debuting

stumpy
K union labor party of Una district
have nomiimlcd , a gentleman by the
name of iMlgerton us their candiduto for
congress. Mr. Edgerton will derive y
great deal more glory than profit from
this nomination.
Tins renders of the demooratic organs
must bo gutting very tired of the chest
nut about "Harrison's ono dollar a day
for the workingmon. " It would bo a
rather cheapsort of ft campaign ammu
nition even if tlioro was anything in it.
VKKMONT came up smiling last Tues
day with an increased republican ma
jority , cmphasi/lng Oregon's protest
against free wool. This ought to so in
vigorate Mr. Edmunds as to enable him
to lake a hand in the national cam
paign.

American's who have boon immortalized

Charles F. Mandcrson , Mrs. Colby ami

LOOK out for an explosion at the noxl
council mooting. The chairman of the
judiciary committee is said to bo vorj
emphatically opposed to the enforce
ment of Chief Soavoy's order with regard
gard to men who carelessly live with
women without taking the trouble tc
procure n mariago license.
GENKUAL HOVKY , the republican
candidate for governor of Indiana , has
kept the political pot boiling at n vigor
ous rate during the absence of General
Harrison , and has shown himself n
good deal more than a match for the
domngoguo Matron. Trustworthy ad
vices continue to report that Indiana is
all inght for the republicans.
TIIKKE is very blight encouragement
for tlio people in piling up bills in congress -
gross for the suppression of trubts and
the punishment of those connected wltli
thorn. Ono measure of this kind passed
would bo worth a hundred tucked away
In the pigeon holes of comimltco rooms ,
The people are beginning to distrust

BAUKUM'S show has taken about

Mil. MAYNEis no longer a citizen p
Omaha , having tukon up his residonci

At this tim.o of the year , when opera
tions on public works are most active , i
is of vital importance that no vacancy
should exist in the board. It is to be
liopsd that the mayor wil ) select a mui

A Grntitl Demonstration ,
Olnaha Is to be congratulated upon
Urn demonstration made by the travel-
jig salobtnou mid representative * of
commercial and industrial ontorpritu ,
n the drummer parade. Our cittv.uus
mil the vast concourse * ot people from
ho section commercially tributary to
, hls city , who witnessed the great p.x-
atk % , now realize the magnitude of the
ralllc of which Omaha has become the
center. More than forty million dol-
ars of wholesale trade aiul thirty mil-
ion dollars in matiufaftiirlng
iroduct ? ft year were represented in the
ino of march , exclusive of thu live
stock industry. It irood without s.iying
that an Amoi'lt-an city of b.iroly thirty-
five year * that is ctipiblo of such a
demonstration cannot stand still. Ilur
destiny as ono of the great cities of this
continent is not problematic. It is a
lixcd fact upon ft basis that cannot bo
shaken. In the evolution of great
cities there are always periods
of depression and stagnation , but
the impulbo of the purmanont growth
continues and the momentum of vital
energy never ceases. Among all the
cities of the great west , Omaha is match
less in her prospective development and
steady expansion. Onward , still on
ward ! is not a more motto with Omaha ,
but a living reality.
The commercial salesmen and their
asbociation deserve unstinted praise for
making their first parade in Omaha n
grand success.
Hill Will Slick.
No paper in the country is perhaps
any nearer the confidence of the presi
dent than the Now York Jfendd , and ,
through its Washington roprcbentative ,
Mr. Charles Nordhoff , it has been per
sistently advising Governor Hill to
withdraw as u candidate for renomina-
tion. There is a quite general belief
that if this counbcl is not inspired from
the white houbo it is fully approved
there. No one doubts that Mr. Cleveland -
land would bo glad to have Hill out ol
the way , but there are obvious reasons
why ho does not dare to make nnv show
of this desire for which ho could bo hold
responsible. To do this would bo to cer
tainly incur the hostility of thousands
of Now York democrats who are de
voted to Hill at whatever cost , and Mr ,
Cleveland knows that ho cannot afford
'
this. On the other hand to seem tc
tacitly acquiesce in allowing Hill to con
tinue in the political arena is hurting
the president with the independent
allies of the democracy and a certain ot
limited class of democrats , which is any
thing but a pleasant experience at thi =
time to Mr. Cleveland. In this dilommn
Mr. Nordhoff is permitted to rolled the
desire of the president without involv
ing him , nothing being easier , wliatovci
bhull become of Hill , than to show that
the Washington representative of the
Jlcmld , who really directs its political
opinions , is alone responsible for his
advice regarding New York politics
Neither tlio friends of Mr , Cleveland
nor the supporters of Mr. Hill , how
ever , are deceived.
But the advice , it is apparent , has
had no effect upon Governor Hill , anO
is not likely to have. Ho is going tc
stay in the race , whether it pleases Mr ,
Cleveland or not. This is the assurance
that comes from ono of his most inti
mate friends and strongest supporters ,
It is claimed that there is no hostility
whatever between the head of the na
tional democratic ticket and the
leader of the Now York democracy
and that the latter will bo fount
at the proper time doing big utmost foi
the success of the former. This is t
ma.tter of course if Mr. Hill shall agair
be a candidate.
The Now York democratic state coiv
vontion will meet next Wednesday , ani
there is every reason to ox.poct that i :
will bo ono of the most interesting o
the year , as it cannot fail to bo ono o
the most important in its results. A
this time the democratic party of Nev
York is not harmonious. That it wil
be to after itb convention has acted is
improbable. The outlook for the republicans
publicans in the pivotal btato ib far more
favorable than it was at the corresponding -
ing date in the campaign of eight yoai'i
ago.
Corn Will bo Kin- ,
Veteran exporters on the Now Yorl
produce oxohango bny that it will bo ii
our corn crop that the Kuropean demand
mand first shows , itself in a marked degree
greo , inasmuch as there is a much more
pressing ncecbbity abroad just now foi
*
btablo food than for household supplies
The European hay crop has been lester
or nt least so damaged as to bo unlit foi
ube , and American corn and fodder wil
Imvo to bo taken speedily.
There could bo no more welcome in
formation for this section , and it will be
especially reassuring to the farmord
of Nebraska , who will have mort
corn to boll this year than usual am
can lind gopd use for the increased price
it is certain to bringv It looks VOIM
much now as if corn is to bo king foi a
least the ensuing year. Tlio outlook i
for dearer bread the world over , aw
this means a moro extended use of con
meal in place of Hour. The when
dplleit in Europe can hardly bo supplict
from the United States with the surplu
now promised , and both for this roasoi
and because of the inevitable increasei
cost of Hour household supplies in mos
countries for the next year will contaii
a larger proportion tlmn common o
corn meal. This , with the enlarged demand
mand for corn for stable food in Europe
will doubtless make a sure murlco
for all this country bus to sell , am
farmers who have raided corn will lliu
a fair profit in their product.
The batter the corn the better the
price and tjio surer tlip market. Hercjt
Nebraska farmers will have the advantage
tago if the favorable conditions hoh
out. Not only is there every probability
that the corn crop in this state will b (
as largo as over before in Ufa history
but of an average quality unsurpassed
All promises are most fluttering for tin
furiiun-baof Nebraska , and , therefore
for the general prosperity of our people
JHrcct From Indiana.
A prominent merchant of this citi
has jast received a letter from a per
sonul friend in Indianapolis , who is n
loading republican of long political ex
perience , w'hlch gives an exceedingly
uncouraglng statement of the situation
in Indiana. The letter buys :
Hl ns worn never moro llnttoritig at this
ntngo of tlio K'liiio ' than they uro now for our
currying liulluim. Tliero la great enthusiasm
all over the state , uiul n very conslJoinblo
number of democrats ( heretofore ) declare
tfioir Intention to vote for Harrison. Our
imity Is united , and every fiietion Is sntisile-d.
Tlio labor vote Is , 1x3 It always Is , di
vided , and while some democrats within
sumo of the labor orKnntzatlotm nro trying to
inalcu It appear that the labor vote Is opposed
to Harrison , they linvc not succeeded hi do-
inp anything. The soldier vote Is almost
solid , uo fur as wo can 11 ml out. The prohi
bition vote IB an unknown quantity , ami will
eomo mostly from the republicans. Uiilcss
something unforeseen shall happen , we are
ns euro of Indiana as wo were In 1680. Our
state Is vary close , and out of r > 2.\00 ( ) votes
there are perhaps fifty thousand lloaters , the
majority either way being from one to live
and six thousand , but wo nro going to "get
there. 1211. " I do not write for brag , mid
would not purposely deceive jou. This is
my candid opinion , gained by information
from various sources and from our state cen
tral committee.
There can be no doubt that this is an
entirely fair and candid statement of
the situation in Indiana , as it is forti
fied by other information equally trust
worthy. It is entirely reasonable to expect -
poct that Indiana will cast its vote for
General Harrison , and wo do not sup-
] > ese that any intelligent democrat seri
ously believes that his party will carry
that state. Nowhere arc the conditions
favorable to republican success stronger
than in Indiana.
THE report that the general manager
of the Manitoba road is to supplant
General Manager Stone of the Burling
ton , and the incredulity with which the
statement in received in certain railroad
circles , tends to increase uncertainty in
a matter in which the public is very
greatly interested. It is noteworthy ,
however , that any report promising the
retirement of Mr. Stone is received
with gratification , a fact which ought to
make a btrong impression on the stock
holders and directors of the Q system.
They ought to see that the restora
tion of their road to the confidence of the
public will bo a ditllcult and pro
longed task with a manager
who has involved the road , in an inter
minable conflict with the Brotherhood
of Engineers. So long as this conflict
lasts the traffic of the road will Suffer ,
and public safety is constantly in dan
ger. To restore the road to its former
prosperity demands a revival of confi
dence , and that never can bo restored
as long at * Mr. Stone remains the head
of its Derating department.
IT is said that an emissary of the
British government has been foi
months past hobnobbing with our naval
officers at Washington , his object being
to obtain a knowledge of the construc
tion of the now torpedoes which it is in
tended to use for harbor defense. It
leaked out a few days ago that ho had
succeeded in obtaining the drawings ol
all torpedoes and the appliances foi
their use from the patent office , and
sent them , with nil other information
ho had acquired , to the war office at
London. It is feared that ho knows all
the secrets of the American torpodc
system , and the war department is said
to bo "all torn up. " In one way and
another England scorns to bo doing
quite well nt Washington.
IT is demonstrated that people wil !

Once a year at least the metropolis ol

Every intelligent business man musi
appreciate the importance to the citj
and to h's ' own interests of such an in
flux of non-residents ns wo nro haviqg
this week. Before another year rolls
round there should bo a thoroughly or
ganized effort to provide attractions
that at least once a year will make
Omaha a mecca for a considerable pro
portion of Nebraska's population.
THE United States senate without r
Delaware Saulsbury might bo just ii !
useful , but would it bo quite so interest
ing1 ; This name has figured on the
senate roll for wo do not know how ninnj
generations , and there wore times whor
it was both famous and notorious. Bui
it is deemed to disappear. Saulsbury o
Dolawr.ro will not bo re-olcctcd. Mr
Bayard , knowing the uncertainty o :
politics , has so arranged matters in hit
little state that in the event of demo
cratic defeat in the national election he
can return to a scat in the senate , ane
in any event can dictate a successor tc
Snulbbury. The veteran legislator hn :

ONE of the most , extensivemillers , ii
Minnesota , who has just returned fron

on the continent generally , according
to this testimony , every crop practically
is a failure , and Europe will bo depend

tion will bo inado Friday and Saturday , and
Monday morning nt B o'clock the doors will
he formally thrown open. The fact that the
exposition Is to bo prc-omlncntlv a Nebraska
show guarantees an unusually largo attend
ance and n tireless Interest.
At no tlmo since there-cognized prominence !
of Nebraska ns an agricultural state has tbo
general crop boon bolter than this year.
From garden to Held the crops have been
munificent. Generally the year has been
ono of prosperity , and farmers as well as
mechanics feel themselves able to contrlbuto
items of Interest n.id to spend the week , or a
portion of it , in swelling the magnificence of
the attendance. The conditions for success
are all promlslnir , and failure would bo next
to an impossibility. The mammoth pumpkin
and squash will como m for a Just share
of admiration Side by sldo with them
will bo found the whole vegetable
world looking good enough to cat without
dissection and preparation by Nebraska's
famous housewives. Thu luscious melon can
bo admired at a distance. Fruits rivaling
the productions of California and Oregon m
beauty , si/e and symmetry , and vastly
superior in flavor , will tempt the small boy
and cause the mouths of Adam's older sons
and daughters to water. King corn In his
finest samples will glisten as gold in the sun
light , and wheat , r.\e , onts and barley ,
matchless In quality , will form no small at
traction of the agricultural products on ex
hibition. The glories of Nebraska's soil
will bo displayed. Nothing is forgotten.
The gold mines of the state have all been
plucked.
Lovers of the horse will find abundant op
portunity to admire him in his matchless
beauty. Draft and roadsters will bo on ex
hibition. Norman , English Draft , Perch-
eron and Clyde , with their wonderful
muscular development , will furnish all
the points necessary for intelligent discussion
of the superiority of draft homo strains.
The Morgan and Messenger will
present their claims for superiority
us general roadsters , while the Hamblatonlan
family will stand grandly alone as the high
est and best typo for speed. Imports from
the principal European countries will contest
for premiums , and some of the bust known
breeders of this country will bo at the stalls
to present the claims of their favorites. The
arrangements for the exhibition of the horse ,
the king of domestic animals , could not bo
better. The cntllo display will also bo line1.
The very best strains of blood will bo on ex
hibition. And , moreover , the prominence of
Nebraska bred cattle will bemanifcst. From
Jersey to Polled Angus , single and in herds ,
the farmer and stock raiser will have nn op
portunity , such as is rarely offered , to make
comparisons and form safe- and sensible con
clusions as to which strain of blood is the
better for general utility , The Holstein and
Durham families must not bo forgotten.
They may prove something more than the
happy mean , the presumption of extremes
having been given. The Jersey is known to
be the "little milker , " whllo the Polled Angus
rank wav up as beef producers. The hog ,
the heir apparent to king corn , must
not bo lost sight of. As one of
the sources of rs'ebraska'swondcrful prosper
ity and wealth , he comes in for a Just share
ol recognition. He will bo on display. A
score of new pens had to be built lor his nc-
commodntlon. Every breed of prominence
will be represented. The hog vocabulary Is
not very large , but it takes In the Chester
White , Jersey Hod , Poland China and IJork-
shire and the various crosses , all of which
have become a part of the great exposition ,
and in which Nebraskans will take n high
degree of interest. The sheep pens will bo
fairly well filled , the merits of which will
rest largely in wool and mutton producing
qualities. Fowls in endless numbers and
varieties will have n place on the grounds.
But the aggregation cannot ba named.
The attractions arc almost numberless. Call
to mind what you would most like to sou of a
great state's handiwork and you will find it
among the attractions collected for the expo
sition. Art will display its treasures. Al
most the whole field will bo covered. Our
mothers will invite and receive your
approbation in their offotrs to please.
From needle work to the culinary arts you
will find thu impress of theirhands manifest.
And then , remember , the great inventions of
the ago can bo seen on every hand , alt com
manding homage and respect. The old
sickle is brought to mind and you seu tliu
magnificent reaper in its stead. Every
thing used on the farm during the seeding
and harvesting time , artistically painted and
decorated , will invite your inspection. Such
a collection is rarely ever seen moro than
oncu in a life time.
There will also bo exhibitions of the finny
tribes. To date over 5,000 entries in all the
the departments have been mado. They in-
close enough of the beautiful and useful to
afford study "and pleasure fora month instead
of n week. While there will be no Jay-Eye-
Sees on exhibition for special attractions the
whole cast has been so carefully selected ns
to do away with any need of the kind. Tlio
speed ring will bo graced by some of the host
horses in the west. Nebraska
bred horses will test the mettle
of some ot the best trotters of Iowa. Mis
souri , Illinois and Kansas. It is said that
2:24 : will bo beaten , and that thu horses
selected and entered for thu races aru so
evenly mated that the races will bo intensely
interesting. Ki'inumber thjit the fair is to boone
ono of Nebraska's wonders. This will prove
enough of special attraction , and tliu multi
tude that attend thu exposition will attest
the prognostication of Tun Dun representa
tive.
THB HlEinilT REDUCTION' THI\L.
The state board of transpoi tatlon met at the
capltol this morning at 10 o'clock , as per ad
journment. It will be icmombcred that to
day was set apart for the hearing oi | tlio
freight reduction order. Attorneys John AI.
Thurston , W. U. Kelly , John M. Kaguii , John
U. Hawley and F. M. Hall were present to
look after the interests of their respective
roads. The morning hours were spent in
reading the answers of the different roads. It
was n sleepy Job , and Judging from the list
less attention given Clerk \Vanng as ho
passed In his ruadjng from pugu to
jiago of the voluminous documents , ono
would Judge that thu whole business had
been learned In detail by the parties inter
ested , and that it was done to bo formal or to
kill time. Hut Waring earned his dmnqr.
When this part of the programme was
throughn { recess was taken until , 2 o'clock.
Tlio board came straggling In about tlio
hour set for tlio afternoon session , but it was
well nlgli U o'clock when business began to
gripd. Secretary Munger suggested that If
the ccuiiscl for aijy of tlio roads had any
thing to say on thu question pf Jurisdiction it
had better bo said during the settlement of
preliminaries. General Lusu concurred. Hut
it did not sqoin to suit Judge Thurston and
ho said so. "If wo are going Into a trial. "
said he , "all questions of law ought to bo
heard at the close. " The blinking of his cs-
sociatcs signified that they thought ; that his
point had boon well taken , and it was finally
decided that thus It should bo. "Hut , " again
said Tnurston , ' 'does the board Intend
that the defendants shall bccomo
the plaintiffs In this hearing. " "Certainly , "
Bald Let-so ; "when the order went out and
the service was Iliadq you were called into
court to show reasops why freight tariffs
should not bo reduced. " An iinprussiva
siioiicu followed the ( statement of the ut-
toruov general , and blinking was the order
for full live minutes.
The remonstrances were than taken up
and carefully read. Attention was manifest.
It could bo scan that the clouds of the buttlq
were beginning to gather , and tlmtbccmhigly
muddled brains were clearing. Thus far the
impression Is left that friends are being
gauged on the ono hand , and on the other
that forces aru husbanded tq meet tlio attacks
ot the enemy. The attendance is modest.
Hut little Interest Is manifested In the trial
among the business men of the city.

an article that corrodes , plumbings , metres

The city ought to bo prosecuted for permit

AN OLD FLEMISH CITY.
Some Sights That ni-o Stran c to n
l-'orelRiier.
Temple Bar : No one was in a Hurry.
The very beggars Imd u lazy whine.
The shop-keepers mostly stood at their
doors , listlessly chewing the stalk of
borne llowor or blaring before them with
lack-lublrc eyes , while hummingii tune ,
nobly indillerent to business. Tlioro
was ono curiosity shop that it was dilll-
cult to pass , [ bojcraminod were its windows
dews with carved ivory and carved oak ,
with brass and brotuo tortured into
shapes beautiful and grotesque , with
majolica ware and Japan porce
lain , missals gorgeous with color ,
cobweb laces yellowed by ago
and ancient weapons and books and
other relics of the past. But here , too ,
the venerable owner of the&e treasures ,
with horn-rimmed bpcctacies to assist
the bleared eyes , i > at in a high-bucked ,
fifteenth century chair , poring over a
tome which was probably printed at a
similar date , and scarcely deigned to
glance at the stranger who was inspect
ing lib slock in trade. It was delight
ful to mark the indolent enjoyment ot
the rod-shlrtcd boatman who lay lan
guidly smoking on the raised poop of
the gaudy barges which lay moored hero
and there on the wide canals , the quays
of which were shaded by limo trees ,
amid tbo rustling loaves of which the
bees hummed noisily. It was hard to
believe that this was thu bustling ,
feverish , nineteenth century , and that
our own insular Babylon was but a few
hours' journey from the drowsy town.
At hibt , however. I found mybolf in a
street wider than the rest , along which
painted country wagons , full of lacc-
cuppcd and kerchiefed maids and mat
rons , of brass cans , baskets anel empty
cratcb , wore jolting ana rattling with
thunderous din over stones , drawn by
sleek , wild-looking horses , which
boomed to wear the minimum of harness
and the maximum of bells , and which
pranced and snorted in their exultant
strength. Those belonged evidently to
well-to-do peasants , who had sold their
poultry and their tame rabbits , their
butter and general dairy produce , and
were now returning to the far-oil farms
whore they dwelt , among the polders ,
and the willows , and wind-mills , and
Hat meadows , grazed by red and white
kino.
Von Moltko.
Blakoly Hall in Now York Sun : But
ono of the most notable of the wonder
ful old mon of Germany is Von Moltko.
Wo could leurii a Icsbon or two from
the Germans concerning the value of
mon. In the United States a man is
shelved at seventy. When he bus
reached that ago in the German em
pire it is absumed that his faculties
have reached their fullest develop
ment , and that his wisdom will then beef
of the highest value to the stato. At
all events , ho is lifted to power and importance -
portanco , and the reins of government
lie in his hands to the very last. Al
though Von Moltko is nearly eighty-
four years of ago , ho is us active as
though but forty. Very often , in Ber
lin , 1 walked up to the war ollico after
breakfast , just for the pleasure of see
ing the old marshal go to work.
There was always a little crowd around
the door waiting for a glance at the fa
mous commander , and when he jumped
out of his carriage and walked briskly
into the big building that is known as
the brain of the army , because a l the
planning of that great organi/.ation
goes on there , he usually walked between -
tweon two line.s of people. Ho smiled
with invariable good imtiuo at the
crowd , and occasionally btopnod to Icih.- ,
the ruddy cheek of a child ir its mother
pushed it forward for the
honor. Then ho trotted into the
ollico , and half an hour "later could
bo sce i hurrying along the corridor
with his hands full of huge olllcial look
ing paper , as huru at work as though ho
had not earned a robt by so many years
of toil. Like the sturdy old Blbinarc'k ,
Hlumoiithnl and the rest of those won
derful old men , Von Moltko rises at 7 in
the morning , retires early at night ,
sleeps on a hard cnmii bedbteud , eats lit
tle and drinks lobs. This military regi
men undoubtedly has much to do with
the amazing vigor which they all show.
To speak of u man of eighty as l > old , " in
Berlin , is to cause a general hensation
of surprise , pity and indignation.
A Novel Kiitui-ininmcnt.
September Tnblo Talk : Cultured
Boston has inaugurated a now llfiul" in

might say the ideaquotod as ' 'original , "

tions to an even ing party , a gontlpman
eont cards to ton young ladies and nine
young gentlemen. Enclosed was a
handsomely engraved card bearing ll\o \
word "Cauborio , " followed by the llifo
from "Parudibo Lost , " "With thee con
versing , I forgot all time. " No little
ourosity | was aroused. When the nine
teen guosls had assembled the boat pre
sented tun current topics for discubbion ,
and instead of the gentlemen writing
their names on the ladies' dance cards ,
the latter Ilitted about and selected
their partners for a chat. An there wa
one lady too many , zest was added to the
choice. But fifteen minutes was allowed
for ouch conversation , when at the tin
kle of a bull a now move was mode.
