BIUCE is the rainbow of premise and poor performance for Dem ocracy. THE board of tratlo is in position to do a vast amount of good for the city by united nnd determined action. PERHAPS Hayti is not awnro of our murderous resources. Her antics are like those of a mosquito inviting a deadly slap. ' THE time is rapidly approaching for the submission of the union depot pro ject. Will the railroads keep their word ? THAT million dollar hotel is some thing moro than thin air. A few moro fifty thousand dollar subscriptions and it will bo a fixed r.eality. THEHE are five thousand and twenty- one miles of ra\lroad \ taxed in the state. The number of miles of sidetrack omit ted will never bo known. PIIESIDBNT HAUHISON'B order aool- ishing all Sunday duties for soldiers except the parade /or personal inspec tion , is gratefully accepted by the rank and file. GLADSTONE bears a charmed life. The intrigues of political enemies , the bullets of assassins , and the reckless ness of cabmen , fail to boat him down , or disturb his mental strength. INLAND towns in Nebraska and Iowa may well take a lesson from the burning of Seattle and Grinnoll. It is poor pol icy to try to maintain proper fire pro tection without engines and water. ARMAGH is the Mud Run of Ireland. The railroad disaster there , resulting in the loss of sixty-four lives , was n piece of criminal carelessness equaling the destructive wreck at Mud Run , Pa. , last year. IF the Haytions are determined to flght , the best thing this government can do is turn loose Rossor nnd Early. They have an abundance of jawbone with Vhich to slaughter the tropical Philistines. CHICAGO has just organized The American Execution company whoso business will bo to furnish untrained fehorifls with professional hangmen. This may bo n grim business but Chi- pngo is evidently well supplied with the necessary qualifications. THE Sioux have dubbed Calico the Bravo-Whoso-Jaw-Shoots- Charley - - - - Far. Whatever bo the result of the conference with the Indians , the Hon. Charles Foster , of Ohio , aa member of the Sioux commission , will have no reason to complain of his reception. * THE county clerks of Iowa are hold ing a convention for the purpose of do- Vlslng a system by which uniform methods of keeping-court records will bo tisod throughout the state. There is a Suggestion hare to the county clerks of Nebraska who can well profit by Vho ro- Bult of this deliberation. ONE million dollars has boon ad vanced by the state treasurer , of Penn sylvania , for the relief of the Cono- tnaugh sulTorors , and wealthy citizens will bo called upon to sign the gov ernor's bond for that amount. Lot the paper ha first passed around to the millionaire members of the South Fork Fishing club. A COTTON mill in Nebraska is one of the possibilities of the. near future. Well , why not ? The spindle will spin cuid the loom will work just as well in Nebraska us in Massachusetts. And , as for climatic conditions best suited for cotton spinning , science may possibly overcome the advantage possessed by the Now England coast in this particu lar.

Tlffi FinS ? CONPWTIOX. Less attention than it merits has > eon given to the Wat , conviction oil rimlnal indictment under the Intor- tate commerce not. The case was that f the United States ( for the Hayward Grocery company ) ngninst George K. 'o/.lor , ngontof the Missouri Paolflo ailroad company , and It was tried bo- ere Judge Thayer , at Hannibal , Mo. The question was as to whether a dls- rltmnatlon In the rate charged the grocery company on a local shipment of ugar was unjust in comparison to a oivor pronortlonato rate charged on a hrough shipment of a similar con- ignmont of sugar for a much oiiRor distance. The difference jotwcon the local rate charged by the Missouri Pacific and that company's u'oporUon of the through rate was wolvo cents , and the court instructed the jury that If they found this an undue and unreasonable ullTcronco they ihould convict , The jur.v found that , n tholr judgment , th'o difference was undue nnd unreasonable , and returned u verdict of guilty. Amendments were made to the inter state commerce act by the last congress vhich Impose heavy penalties of fine and Imprisonment , and make thorn thoroughly effective by summary judi cial process. The law was thus changed o ft stringent penal statute , under which the railroads must obey or face , ho consequences of criminal prosecu tion. Before the paasugo of those amendments the Instructions to freight agents and other employes were to obey the law as far as possible , but to et the business at all hazards. Now ho instructions are rather to avoid the danger of prosecution -under the law , whatever the effect on the business. The law will be fairly tcatod under these changed condititlons , the case in Missouri being a precedent that will very likely bo widely followed whore merchants discover that they are being discriminated against. The in- lluonco of this first conviction in inducing greater care on the part of railroad ofllomls to avoid infractions of the law must also bo wholesome. The fact that the law was in operation for moro than two years without an attempt ImviiiGf been made to onforoo its penal provisions tended to create an impres sion that those provisions would remain inoperative. This fooling will now bo given up , and railroad officials conclude that they are not to bo allowed to enjoy special immunity from punishment when they deliberately violate the law. When they shall have fully realized this the operation of the intor-stato com merce act will become much moro effective. Meanwhile it is under stood that the commission ors have promised to co-opornto with the prose cuting officers of the government in enforcing - forcing the penal sections of the law , and the country will probably not have long to wait for a thorough test of the constitutionality of the law stnd the meaning and validlcy of its disputed provisions. TO THE UNION PACIFIC. The enormous number of passengers handled promptly and safely by the bridge motor trains yesterday is strong proof of the benefits of cheap and con venient transit between Omaha and Council Bluffs. It is a striking' illustra tion of the good results of the liberal policy adopted by the bridge company. Low tolls mean increased patronage and greater profits. This has been proven so often that it has become a fixed prin ciple in railway management. The construction and operation of the wagon bridge and motor line have revo lutionized the business and social rela tions of the people of the twin cities. The Union Pacific , heedless of all complaints and protests , kept the two cities apart for years by a stand-and-do- liver policy. Instead of encouraging commercial freedom between the two states , it places an embargo on trallio and forces it to seek other markets where tribute is not levied at the thres hold. This system of commercial piracy can not last. The company must encourage business by a generous reduction.of tolls , or it will soon sutler a reduction of traffic. What the wagon bridge ac complished for local trade , another rail road bridge will accomplish for general traffic. A MONOPOLY DEFEAT. A case possessing general interest , because it resulted in the defeat of the greatest monopoly in the country , was recently decided by Judge Jackson , in the United States court at Nashville. The Standard Oil company supplies natural gas to Toledo at an agreed price of twelve and a half cents par one thou sand cubio foot , but it virtually charges what it pleases. The people of Toledo became convinced that they were pay ing excessive raten , nnd they obtained from the legislature an act authorizing the city to issue bonds for borrowing money to construct-pipo lines to connect the city with natural gas welln. The preliminary stops to this arrange ment were vigorously fought by the Standard company , nnd finally it up- plied to the United States circuit court for an order restraining the city of Toledo from issuing bonds , The com pany did not bring its suit in Ohio , but wont all the way to Nashville. Its de feat , however , was quite as complete as it could possibly have sullcrcd in Ohio , the judge promptly refusing' to grunt the order asked for. The result will bo the absolute independence of Toledo , but more than this it will nhow the other communities being supplied with natural gas by the Standard the exac tions to which they are subjected by the monopoly. The success of Toledo will very likely load the people of other places to demand moro favorable terms of the Standard or they will sock relief in the way Toledo has done. The won der is I hat the shrewd attorneys of the Standard did not see thla as the possi ble oAtcomo of nn exposure of the mo nopoly's methods. "In itself the To ledo ontorprlso , " remarks the Clnoln natl Gmnmfrciul-Gazclte , "is not a big one , but it will prove an object lesson for the whole country. It will show the open door through which people may pass from under the yoke of a most giguntlo , unscrupulous and odious mo nopoly. We are only on the verga of a revolution that -Is as sure to conio as , hat which followed the throwing ovor- ward of a lot of tea In Boston harbor ; Neither the power nor Iho vulgarity of capital can long rule the people. " A GOOD F011E1ON jXA3tPLE. . The wrecking of part of a railroad ex cursion train in Ireland on Wednesday , resulting in the death of a largo number of children nnd others , led to the prompt arrest not only of the men in charge of the train , but also of the traffic managers and clerks. There was no waiting for a coroner's jury to Invos- .Igato nnd report. There had taken ihtce a torrlblo disaster for which somo- xxly was responsible , and the way to fix , ho responsibility was to take into cus- , ody all who could have anything whatever to do with the direction or control of the ill-fated train. Of course all who were nrrostcd will not bo punished. Undoubtedly most of ihom had nothing to do with directing .ho train. But they have boon tukon care of in a way that will enable the authorities to got at the bottom facts ind to spoudlly know whoao stupidity or carelessness is chargonblo with the very bad calamity. Thooxamplo is worthy of general iml- tntion. The great majority of railroad accldontsaroduo to gross curolcssnoss or inexcusable plundering , and very often it is the higher ofllclals who are most to blame. But those are never hold to nn accountability , at least in this country. There have boon Instances of the arrest of en gineers and conductors , bu none where the men high in authority have been required to show why they should not bo held to somr > roapanslbllity for avoid able disasters. The Irish majrlsstrato proceeded wisely ami justly. IIo does not expect to convict everybody whom ho summoned before him , ibut the par- tics who deserve conviction will bo moro easily and surely reached than would parlni | > 3 bo the case it ho hud simply placed , the trainmen in custody , who , iw the circumstances seem to show , are not wholly responsible for the disaster. THE republican governor of Connec ticut , having followed the example of the democratic governor of Now York In vetoing a ballot , reform bill con structed after the Australian raothotl , ho has boon sharply criticized by re publican journals and as warmly com mended by democratic organs. Thus the Now York Sun refers to him as "a true statesman , " whllo it characterizes the members of the legislature who voted to pass the bill ovor'tho veto as a "venomous crowd , " 'J'ho , motives of the two governors were unquestionably widely different , nnd Governor Bulk- cloy , of Connecticut , must , in fairness , bo credited with having acted from a conscientious convic tion that the proposed law was unwise and would do far moro harm than pood. His reasons for veto ing it are forceful , and it does not necessarily detract from them because in some roapocts they are similar to reasons given by 'Go'vcrnor Hill for his veto of the Saxton bill. The truth is , as Tin : BEI : long ago said , the mania that spread ever the country for the Australian method of voting had very little sound judgment in it. It con&ld- ored very little , if at all , the difficulties in the way of adjusting that method to our political system , being content with the assumption tluit because it had worked well in the land of its origin it must necessarily do ao here. It is not questioned that the method has good features , but as a whplo wo greatly doubt whether it could be-succossfully applied hero. Everybody-agrees that there is need of reform * p 'our election methods , but a great muny. thoughtful people do not believe it necessary to ' import a system framed to'moot politi cal conditions different from" those which prevail hero. ' THE city ordinance roquirinjr the street car companies to pay in udvanco for pavement taken up is needlessly burdensome and unjus t. The companies are entitled to equal treatment with property owners on ubuting streets. If pavement has boon in use qno-or moro years before tracks are laid on the street , it is manifestly unfair t'o charge the original cost. A moro equitable way is to charge n pro rnta of the cost , basing the lifo of the pavement at ton years nnd deducting ono-tunth for each year's wear before the street is occupied by the railway. Payment can bo ex acted from the companies in annual in stalments. But they can not hope to escape their share of the cost' . Under the old law they evaded paying the cost of * pavingby waiting till the street had boon paved a year , thus throwing the entire hurdon on the property owners. The charter explicitly provides "that they shall pay for paving between their tracks , and the city council should not bo swerved by throats from carrying out the intent and purpose of the law. Corporations nro entitled to equal treat ment with individuals , but favoritism should not bo tolerated. TKADK journals nro pointing out the fact that while the construction of rail roads for last year was only about one- half as much as In 1837 , nevertheless moro iron was used in 1888 than in the year previous. This is accounted for on the ground that iron has come into general use , especially lu the building trades , whore vast quantities are con sumed. It would , moreover , indicate thuttho demands of the railroads no longer control the iron market , nnd that the price of that commodity is regu lated through other channels. Iowa , is an unfortunate town. A few years ago a cyclone lev eled a largo portion of it , killing and maiming 'tho residents nnd destroying thousands of dollars worth of property. The robuUt city suffered a second de structive visitation two days ago. Fire fiwopt the city , inflicting severe losses on its business men. THE garbage master makes the proposition to kill tlitf suporJluous dogs of Omaha hy the charcoal pan. The humane society certainly can take no exception to this mode of execution. II commends itself to the society both from the facllhnt It is painless nnd PO thoroughl&Euonchy that it is positively romantic. ; H .

OJIAHA is n rich field for Investments. Capitalists of Now York , Boston and Philadelphia are not slow to BOO these opportunities and profit by thorn.A Boston syndicate has offered to make a 6J per cent loan on ono of the fire proof buildings of Omaha. KAILS have been distributed eve the Eleventh street viaduct and South Eleventh street. The question is will they bo loft to rust and Impede travel for months to como or will the street oar companies build nnd operate their lines immediately as they have prom ised to do. CAPITALISTS of Omaha have now the long looked for opportunities to show their public Spirit by taking a hand in several projected ontorprlsoa. The most Important of these Is a railroad to Southern Dakota.

The District Court. The case of Joseph Burns vs the City of Lincoln has awakened n deal of interest here. It is still In the hands of Judge Chap man and'ii Jury Plaintiff's petition in detail wus published by TUB HUB at thu tloio the case was llled. Tt seems that the issue hinges upon the quos- . tlon : Old Burns Julllll his part of the con tract !

Burns sets up in an swer that when the wells were llnally passed uoonby the board of public works , theygnvo up pure water and continued to do so forever over twenty-four hours afterward ; that ho could not be held responsible for the water after the weU ! had been passed upon and ac cepted. The defense insists , however , that the wells were only conditionally accepted , nnd that the money claimed had not been paid to the plaintilt because the terms of the contract und not been kept intact. It seems that the question the jury will bo called upon to decide will bo : Did ljurns fulfill his con tractor not ! The case will hardly bo sub mitted to-night , nnd if it is the chances uro strong tli at , the jury will have as touijli u pull us the lawyers.
