As heretofore i-dinarkod. the dismnmls
of an nclivo political campiign upon
the attention Ot the people have inter
fered loss than usual with the business
nlliurs of the country , and in nearly till
< lei > artincnl3 of ti'ado there has been a
steady iind profitable movement. Tht
New York Coiinif n-inl JiiiUili , ! , says of
the business .situation that the volume
of trade transacted throughout the
country is remark-ably large , compfirinn
favorably with liist year , luul jirobably
greater than ever before during the lasl
Week of a national campaign. Agricul
tural movements in Iho west have bo-
conic iliore extensive , and have led lo a
ileady increase in the volume of ro.ll-
oad tr.illlc. There has beeji an utl-
Hual activity in business on the Pacific
coast , while in the south the cotton and
sugar movements luive iium d large
iroportioiis. The industrial situation
iins iiiaiiitaincd its activity in Now
England , and manufacturing operation'
liave been on n large and prosperous
scale. The October export movement
way larger than last year , while the Im
ports were less. The general tone ol
business has been conservative find non
speculative , trade us a rule being car
ried on with small shocks , at reitsonnbli
prices , and with a view otilj to imme
diate consumption.
November has therefore opened undo
very favorable auspices , and with tlu
promise of a progressive improve
ment in business from the moment tin
disturbing influences of the election tin
withdrawn. Jt cert'itnly seems reason
able to expect that having posset
through the political campaign Wi'th &i
litllo disturbance to trade , and Vi lib al
Lhe conditions so entirely favorable
business will now materially improve
ind that the period between now am
the Ili-ot of January will witness in
ictue movement. So far as the suppl ;
of money is coivunrncd , it is ample foi
o\ery demand. The treasury slate
ment for October shows that there wa
a ilecrea.se in the surplus dnrhi |
that month of twenty-two million del
InI-B , expanding to thai amount , tlu
money circulation Of the country , whicl
has reached a greater aggregate thai
ever before.
There is nothing in the material con
ditlon of the country that is not en
tirely satisfactory and reassuring , giv
ing promise that the year will clo-i !
profitably to Utl interests and that nex
year will witness a rising tide of general
oral prosperity.

The proposed congress of Amerieai
nations to be hold in Washington npx
year , to which invitations to all the gov
iM'nmonts of the western heniispher
have been issued , appears likely not ti
prove bo great a. success as has bcei
lioped , even if it shall not prove to b <
very nearly a complete failure , . Th
objects of the congfoss. are to consido
measures to preserve the peace and pro
mote the prosperity of the nations whicl
have bpen abked to eqnil delegates t
the congrcs * , to cstablibh an America
customs union , to secure moro frcqttcn
ititev-cojnmunication , to agree upo
uniform customs , appraisement an
< iuaranti.no regulations , td provid
fof uniform weights and measure ;
to adopt a common legal tender silve
coin , and in a general way 10 bring ai
American countries into closer relation
commercially and otherwise with
view to mutual advantage and sup
port. '
The inception of this comprehensivi
and really important project dates bad
some twelve years , and while not favor
ably regarded at first , subsequent dig
cussion and inquiry led to the belie
that it would bo heartily welcomed b
all American countries. There wor
certainly fair assurances that sue
would be the case , but it now appear
that whatever view ono of the mo <
important of thorn , Rra/il , may hav
taken of the matter in the pa&i
that government cannot now b
depended upon to take any part in th
proposed congress. In a general wa
the opinion seems to have obtained i
that country that it has nothing to gai
ny entering into any now cotnmereir
alliance with the United States wlul
the fiscal policy of this country romaii :
as it is , and the feeling there ovidontl
is to lot well enough alone. It is hardl
necessary to remark that this sonllmci
has doubtless boon very asslditoUsl ,
worked up and encouraged by the Eurt
pean interests that are profiting so 111
orally by thp tradt * of Brazil , and it
an interesting question as to how fn
this foreign influence may bo oxertc
upon other South American countries. ' .
is certainly to bo apprehended that tli
e.\amplo of Brazil will have an effect o
other states , and supplemented as
will bo by the determined efforts of th
European Interests there is reason I
fear that the representation in the pv <
posed congress will bo far short of win
is necessary to make it a success.
Hut if the result shall show that tli
time has not yet come , or thecoiiditior
pro not-favorable , for successfully cai
rying out'thls project , it will not then
fore bo rendered hopeless. There wi
come a time wliou closer commcrcii
relations and nn alliance for genort
mutual advantage and protection wi
bo established between all America
ountrics , and the proposed congress as
i step towatd that consummation can-
lot be wholly a failure. This country
vill at least learn from it what obstacles
ts own commercial policy presents to
ho desired arrangement , and such
{ nowledgc will doubtless be worth all
hat the congrc-s.s will cost.

Mr. Will Gurley Is" a bright young

Mr. ( itirley needs is the chastening Ics-
ton of defeat to impress upon him tlu
fact that unbending integrity and so
briety are the best passport to nn olhcc
of honor and. trust. Let it be impressed

Omaha who are ambitious to be honored

Iii a paper by Mr. Gladstone on tlu
future of the English-speaking races
just published in an American journa
to which it was specially contributed
the great blatosiuan spoakb most hope
fully of the future of the United State
and of the influence it is likcl ;
to exert upon the world. Then
ib no reason , he thinks , for fore
seeing any serious controversy botweei
this country and any Europeai
couiitry , and as there has been n
war across the Atlantic ocean for mon
than bovetity years , ' 'Why , " ho asks
"should there be- one for seventy , o
twice seventy more1' ; ' He think
there is an approximation actuall ,
at work between Englishmci
and Americans , and that they are be
ing drawn nearer1 and nearer to on
another , not by any artificial contriv
ances , but with "the cords of a man. '
In illustration he refers to th
increasing minlbcr of marriage :
between tie ) English and American
and the entirely genial charade
of their social results. Ho find
that the intercourse between the tw
countries is not the same as it was. I
has been visibly boftened , mellowed
ripened. "An Amoiicdn stranger i
to us more and moro like a Uritibl
stranger'saya Mr. Gladstone , "and
hope that a British stranger is t
them more and moro like a
American stranger.1 Regardin
the English tongue , the distinguishc
statesman expresses the opinion that i
will bo , with all that belolrgs to it , th
one most fully represented at over
point on the surface of the globe. "J
will reach almost to every hi
man l > oit > gi even if enl
by material dealings , and th
stressof the progressive material dc
velopmont. " In order that this sha :
be accompanied by thoj.argobt mcasur
of good , Mr. Gladstone urges that En"
libh speakers "should boar in min
how every new' channel opcnv
to our influence , every accessio
made to our social force , over
shifting to our advantage in tli
distribution of the momenta of humn
action , isa new trust for which we inu ;
give account , a new summons to us the
we should live a braced and watchfu
not a remiss and sluggish life , a now el (
ment of that univelsal priesthood , i
which every man , wht , > does his clut
day by day , ever offers for himself an
for others gifts lo the most high God.
Sojiri recent public utterances 1i
prominent Canadians , among them th
the premier , Sit' John McDonald , sho' '
that the ruling classes in the dominie
regard the sentiment in favor of mine :
ation as little short of treasonable. It :
deed all public officials bo characterise
it and urged that every man who talke
annexation should be spotted as a
enemy of Canada. Sir John too
a practical view of the matte
urging that nothing woi'ld bo gained b
the Dominion from annexation. It
people would bo taxed from Wnsljin
ton , regardless of their interests , an
they would surrender not only their ii
dependence , but far moro in a matoi'i :
way than they would receive in rcturi
The tendency of recent qvcntsfiu th
country will very likely bo to strengthe
the clement in Canada hostile to tl
annexation idea.
Tnu promise of some great surp'ris
with which , the democratic manager
intended lo startle the nation in th
hist days of the campaign did not m ;
tcrialire. This is not to be accountc
for on the supposition that the demt
cratic faculty for inventing roorback
was exhausted. The true oxplanntioi
doubtless , is that the mauagors had b <
come convinced that the people , bein
prepared , were not likely to b ? Jiooi
winked , and that an effort to inisloa
thorn at the hist moment would prol
ably do the democratic party moi
harm than good. They have had
rather unprofitable- experience wit
roorba cks.

Heveral weeks ago 1 challenged you to dis
cuss with mo before the pcoplo the charges
you had made through your paper , the Her

of fraud in connection with any act of mine ,
to publish it at once. You have not done so ,
and you declined lo moot me. because you did
not dare to do so in the presence of out
constituents , but jou skulked behind
silgnco and continued In jour dirty work ,
and now in the closing hours of the c.-uii-
patgn , when .von ihink I cannot answer \ out

nounco jou as a coward.

Where someone in collusion with the sj-ndi-
cato counts them , and tlio sumo herd ic
driven round a largo ciiclu and lliun llirougli

a thiid , fourth and llftli lime , and thus the
same thousand catllo aic made to numbcl
"i.OOO head , and the syndicate recclvo-
pay for r > ,000 , although only 1XX (
had been delivered. It is a poiutenUar\
offense for a senator or a member of tin
housq lo bo interested in a government con
tract.
It has been currently reported and believed
that , when out on the plains , jou commenced
the. caltlu business by branding calves \vhjcji
belonged to other people , and continued this
business till j on had gathered a large and
valuable herd ,
It has been currcnlly reported and. gencp
ally believed that you induced a number a !
your employes lo perjure Ihcuisolves
in proving up for j'ou on fraudu-
lentlj" pre-cmptirm claims , where jou
fenced in Innnonso quantities dl
lands in order to prevent men of small

It Is rcpoitcd , and gcnCralij * believed , that

jou are now employing jour vast wealth , ob
tained by the means pbovo described , in try
ing to force yourself upon the people as gov
ernor. You have never denied tlio truth ol
any of these very d.unagJng repoits. I should
bo glad if j-ou could prove your innocence.
In this Campaign jour course has been In
famous. You have utterly refused to slum
yourself to the people. You have never bean
upon anj * platform. Are you so conscious of
jpur utlcr unfitncss or mcap.icily and woith-
lessncss that you dare not appear before thv
people ! No man since Hip days of William
M. Tweed over resorted to sucji disgraceful
and dishonest political methods as you have
introduced into this canvass. Your onljmean5

You have no hope or thought of accomplish

BuecchS of a .jounff Swedish drujj'Kiht ,
Uudolph I'Mcosoli , of Now Hritnln ,
Conn. , in conducting experiments with
a now substance has surprised inanj
experts In rock blasting. I'p to ten
years ago young Jwi'iCbBon worked In u
pov\der mill in Sweden with his undo.
Desiring to win fame and forluno ho
left his native pluco and carte to
America , lloro ho worked at uiio trade
and another , finally learning the drug
business. Ho corresponded with mw
unol in the old country and a few years
ago the uncle told him thut lie had boon
successful in inventing the now famoufe
powder , in the btudy of which ho hud
spoilt so ninny years , and nt once offered
lo the boy the right to mnmifacluro hi
America his new compound. Flvo week *
niro a patent was grunted fo rrlesson for
this substance [ and .it will bo knwn to
the trade ns "c.xtralitc. "
The new powiler , which looks much
like damp corn meal , and which hasan
odor about it which druggists would at
once recogni/.o as oil invrbano , is easily
made over a stove. The writer saw
some of it made over a little tire in thu
back room of Mr. Curran's drugstore ,
in new Uritiau. and then by special in-
vitntldn saw the pxperlmcnt ? made by
'
Mr. lric.sson ! nnd Mr. Cut-ran at thei'r
oxpei'iment station on Shuttle Meadow
mountain. The first throe trials were
to prove that the inixltiro cannot bo ex
ploded in the open airA small fire of
wood and leaves were made and then
two pounds of the yellow compound
were put Into the firo. I'owdor or dyn-
inito subjected to such a test would ex
plode \iolulitly , but thvi now invention
would neither \phnlo nor burn. It
was saturated with l.eiosi'iie and then
about one-half of the ( | iuiutUy burned
slowly. Next , u roll of Iho comi > ound
about the sl'/o of the largest Uro crncker
vras tested hy the inscrtitin in It of a

was touched of wltli n fuse , but IN ex

Next. sDine tjf it was pifi on u stone nud
