Tnu rubber manufacturers of the country may not have a rubber trust in their mind's eye. But a scheme which shall regulate and keep up the price of rubber goods smells almost as rank. 1 Tun "paver" who sends a communi cation to THIS BKK , claiming that in no city of the country has ho over soon such a disregard for paving specifica tions as in Omaha , evidently knows what ho is talking about. a United States grand jJry in Tennessee brings in bills of indictment against two hundred judges and clerks of election , it is fair to presume that elections in that state are decidedly mixed and off color. THK noted English divine , Rev. Charles Spurgcon , has won for himself the everlasting friendship of Chicago. Ho has just told that saintly city that from a roligiqus standpoint it was far ahead of wicked London , especially in the matter of Sunday observance. "OMAHA must keep abreast of the times in the matter of public attrac tions. " The preparations for the mer chants' carnival this fall are in good hands , and the success of the enterprise rests largely with the co-operation of our merchants and citizens. S has boon another sharp rise in the price of "sugar within the past few days which makes the advance fully ono and one-half cents per pound since the luttor part of March. Consumers are told that the sugar crop is throe hun dred thousand tons short , and it is very apparent that the sugar trust is making the most of it. i : all , the easiest anil surest way way to win the favor of the Sioux is through his stomach.

Till ! war between Now York City and the electric companies is by no moans over.

Despite the fact that ho has the law and public opinion to back 1 him , the corporations have found moans to pluco obstacles in Ills way. In the end Mayor Grant will win the fight. Now York Worldia not pleased with the selection of Mr. Brlco as chairmun of the democratic ! national committee. It pictures him enthroned , holding a scoptro surmounted with a bag of money , while above his crowned hoail is a rainbow resting on money bags , and it asks ; "Is Plutocrat Brice , of Wall struct , the proper leader for JoltorBonian domocraoy in a fight Bgaliibt ipio mouoy power V" On the other hand , the Now York < b' u con siders the ohoico ot Mr. Brice to have been wise. Thus do the democrats "got together. " No man in Washington is in greater demand than General Rusk , secretary of agriculture.

Secretary Rusk , no doubt fully appreciates the wldo consideration thus shown him , but he would need to bo ubiquitous to respond to ono-tenth o ! the invitations , and as the work of or ganizing the department is considera ble , lie will bo compelled to forego mos Of the fair courtesies proffered him. 111K ALTO&S The uRontlomon'8 ngroomont" has rocalvod another blow in the announce ment by the Chicago & Alton company , that it will withdraw from the InterState - State Commerce Railway association a month hence. It Is impossible to say how much of a surprise this will bo to railway circles. The attitude of the Alton for some time hns been a threat ening ono , nnd it is notlmprobahlo that what it has done has boon oxpoctod. In that event the immediate ) effect may not be serious , but it would scorn that the ultimata consequences to the association must bo. In leav ing the association the purpose of the Alton ot course Is to proceed after the dnto of its withdrawal in ubsoluta independence of all ether roads and to make a light against all competitors for traffic which It Is unable to got under present circumstances. It is unneces sary to say that this foreshadows a rate war which very soon after July 15 may nssumo largo dimensions. The communication of the Alton oIl- ! cials announcing the decision to with draw from the association throws the responsibility for the action upon the St. Paul. Not moro than a week ago it was decided by the executive board of the Intor-Stato Commerce Railway asso ciation that the St Paul should crlvo the Alton a share of its Hvo stock traf fic , and this it agreed to do. Itappjnrs , however , that no effort lias boon made on the part of thn St. Paul to comply with the decision of the board , and the association having no power to enforce it , the Alton tnutmguincn I accept thu al- tornatlvo of making an Independent contest for the tralllc. Not only is there made a charge- bad faith against thu St. Paul so far us the association is con cerned , but there is the graver charge , if possible , that the company has been making secret inducements to shippers to patronize its line , which may involve a violation of the inter-state commerce law. Perhaps the most significant sentence in the communication of the Alton management is this : "Tho agreement has tied the hands of those who com plied with its provisions , and has en abled others to obtain unfair advan tages over them. " What ether com panies , if any , feel similarly aggrieved with the Alton , will very likely soon bo disclosed , but in any event the dissolu tion of the experimental association seems imminent. Meantime the Alton company proposes to pursue its own course under the law for securing its fair share of t.ratllc , and the results will have great interest both for the rail roads and the public. Tim civil service commission is noth ing if not ambitious , and its desire to bring the appointments of the census Duroau under its control is likely to meet with great opposition. Congres sional patronage brokers will not give up the appointment of census takers without a lively contest. AN EAKLY FIO1IT. The contest already entered upon by the democracy over the question of the next presidential candidate of the partj appears premature , yet it is being carried on with a good deal of vigor. The inciting cause is the well-under stood fact that the democrats of Now York have two candidates in ox-Presi dent Cleveland and Governor Hill , and that the supporters of each are verj earnest and determined. Were the democracy of the Empire state unani mous for the ox-president there woult probably bo little discussion of the mat ter in the party generally , but suclf ; is not the case. Governoi Hill'has a very largo and vigorous fol lowing in New Yorlc , and from all pres ent indications it does not propose to give him up with as little resistance as was shown last year. His friends seem determined to keep him in the field , at whatever hazard to the poacn and se curity of the party , and this has aroused his opponents to an early olTort to drive him out of the Hold. The most active and uncompromising of these Is the St. Louis .Hcintblic. That journal regards Governor Hill as ut terly unlit , mqntally and morally , tobe the candidate of its party in the next presidential contest , and it docs not hesitate to say so in the plainest possi ble terms. By way of vindicating its judgment the Jiepublic has boon printing democratic opinions on the question of the next candidate of the party , among them those of editors in the south and southwest. Those show an almost unan imous opposition to the Now York gov ernor. Very generally those editors express the belief that his nomination for the presidency would bo a grave mistake , some of thorn declaring that it would involve the inevitable defeat of the party. The Jtcpublic appears to have pretty clearly established the fact that Governor Hill has at this time extremely little support outside his own state , and perhaps two or three in Now Eng land , but will his friends care anything about this demonstration:1 : Will they lose any of their courage or determina tion in hlssupportbecause of this knowl edge ? Probably not. There is a point in the opinions elicited by the St. Louis journal that may provn somewhat disconcerting to the friends of Mr. Cleveland. That is the widely 'extended view that the democratic party should seek , its next candidate in the west. The quite gen eral sentiment among the democratic editors of the south and south west is that the party ought not tc make the next campaign hinge on throe or four northern states , mid that the west and the south should cooperate - operate regardless of the wishes of thu oast. It is evident that the desire to break the solid republican west is up permost in the minds of many repre sentative democrats , and the fooling is likely to realize a conbiderablo growth within the next throe years. THE KBIKMAft \ \ COM3I1SSWKEH There wtiR a strong ollort made to in duce the president to retain Mr. Oberlj as coimnicsionor of Indian affairs. The philanthropists who muko thu Indian an object of their special concern brought all their Influence to bear In behalf of Obot-ly , claiming that ho had shown exceptional ability in dealing with the Indian question , that ho hat . . * a. < . flvon it the most careful study and .horoughly . understood It , nnd that it would bo a mtsfortuno to the govern ment and the Indians to lese his services , But Mr. Oborly will retire from the posi tion at the close of the present month , and will bo succeeded by Colonel T. , T. Morpan , who was a member of the regiment commanded by President Har rison. Mr. Oborly wis ; appointed commis sioner of Indi.in affairs about a yoir : igo , and doubtlo33 in many respects ho ins been the means of goo.i to tiio ser vice , but ho has boon charged with sub verting its nco.ls to the goo ! of the purty. Unquestionably ho g.ivo m ore attention to the duties ot the pajlttou than did his predecessor , nnd had ulsj a nero Intelligent ideaot the Indian question , but ho is a very strong pirtl- sihand : it is by no moans incrodlblo that ho tnatlo the position to som3 ox- lent subservient to the Interest * of his parly. But whatever miy jo the fact as to this , the assump tion that Mr. Oborly was indispensable to the service , or that a republican ot uqual ability : uul llt.Mo.ii could not bo found to 1111 the position , was ono which tlto president could not accept , and iftor carefully seeking the right man lie appeared to have found him in Col on ol Morgan. Tno now commissioner of Indian af fairs has long boon angagod In educa tional work , and has also boon idontl- llcd with the labor of battering the con dition of the Indians. For a number of years his oorvicos have boon enlisted in practical reform mo vomonts. and ho is credited \vlti ! a grout deal of useful work in this direction. The Boston ilMrtisit * says OL him that ho is well fitlod by character for the posi to which ho has boon ap pointed , flls experience ha < given him a doflnito and concise knowledge of the real needs and crying ovlls of the service , and ho can bo trusted to deal with them wisely nml effectively. Those most familiar with hia ulr.irn.utor nnl qualifications heartily commend his ap pointment. Tno time is not remote , there is rea son to believe , when the Indian problem will present comparatively few difficul ties. The judicious processes now being put into olToct must , if adhered to , bring the Indians to a condition where they can be largely left to take care of them selves , and bo fore another gen oration tion shall have passed away the paternal concern of the government for those people will doubtless have pretty nearly , if not entirely ceased. They will have bocoiuQr.a part of the grout ho.st of civili/.ii'ti8n , In full sympathy with it * methods , requirements and re sponsibilities. But there is still a great deal to be done/beforc this is accom plished , and thc'dutios yet to bu per formed are as delicate and dillicult as any that have preceded them. Colonel Morgan is well vouchedfor , as a man in every way competent to perform his share of the task intelligently and faithfully. IT issovcnil yours sliino an unsuccess ful olTort wu imido.in . Engliind to cx- chulo Aincrioiin baof and it is now be ing ronowcd. As foreign legislation against the importation of American lard wns inspired by the warfare made in this country upon compound lard , so the movement in England for the ex clusion of American beef , ostensibly on the ground of protecting consumers against disoasod.meiU , finds its excuse in the lofrifilation adopted by some states and proposed in others for exclud ing the di-cssodljcef from ether stato.s on the score of clangor from disease. Thus do our narrow and sellish devices return to plngud us. The attempt to ex clude American beef from England a few yoarrf ago was mot by a popular opposition so vigorous that it wusbpood- ily abandoned. It was well understood then to bo wholly in the interest of the English producers , and to moan inev itably higher and less moat for the masses. Doubtless the present olTort has the same basis , for there is no clai m that disciibcd American meat , has boon sent to England , but in view of the fact that wo have to an extent discredited our own product there is danger that the popular opposition to the present move ment for excluding it from the English marlcot will not ha so general or so vigor ous as boforo. The loss ol that market for our beef would boa serious matter , even though it should bo but temporary. Astounding Klcatrlcul Progress. Vuim a fjiiulim'nper. .

Thu subject untlur coHsliltir.iUon wns that of the expenses of the stnto govenimont. At the tlmo , the board was auditing and allowing nioutlily claims ot tliuisttUo Institutions , ttiul ns Item after item wan passed upon , somn of the Interjec tions used In signifying nssent or condemna tion were sommvlmt , amusing , thoiiKli luck ing In dignity.

Hut Tun HGI : representative ) Intends to cist ; no reflec tions In mnlclng this statement for he bollovos that there is a tlmo that emphasis Is highly necessary , and tlmt study for words to inixko n statement emphatic Is moro nlco th.tn wise. Hut to tiio controversy. "I'll give the stuto0,000 per year for the privilege of purchasing iho supplies for the state institutions , " said u member of the board , "and , moreover , I'll ' bond my.solf to save the state money on the basis of the etatu's expenses uurlng thu p.ist your. " "Hut you can't tlo It , " dryly remarked another ; "thorolsno law that provides for such ii deal. " " 1 iinow that well enough , but my object in malting the statement was to bring the at tention of the board In the ularmini ! expense that comes upon thu stuta from month to month , and it is steadily growing. It seems to mo thai dealers vlo with each other in putting It on tnu stnto Just because the stuto is their paymaster. " "This suggests the folly , " qulotly ro- innrliud another member , "of locating state InatiuiUons here and there urn ! everywhere. It simply gives "Tom , Diek unit Harry" a chancu at the public toal. The lawmakers of Nebraska must como to It sooner or later. A "purchase and supply agent" belongs to the Dressing needs of tno state , nnd every state oflleer ought to urge this upon the next general assembly. A law creating ono ouu'ht certainly to bo unacted , and , my word for ii , thu general squeeze on the public teat by dealers would cease.1' "Lot nio say , " chipped In still another , "that , u board of public charities also be longs to our needs. While it , has Us abuses In other states , where it exists , I urn very sure thu good results would oxcccd the bad. It might have been a good idea to call upon Dr. Hillings to imvn moculnied a little sense into the last august assemblage.

This tiino James O'Noil , the plumber , is the cause , and ho alleges that lie did the plumbing fur the sanitarium , which footed up something lilo fliUO when llnishcd. O'Nuil further states that he was unable to collect but $30 of the amount , wlulo the vvholo sum w.is duo and p.iyabio on the date of the completion of the work ; that Doggo took measures to protoi-t himself not altogether consistent with honesty , that he slapped mortg.igca on his belongings to prevent him from collecting his claim. Hiding his time , O'Noil procurrod a writ of attachment and run it upon the doctor's museum at u late hour , yesterday afternoon , which is valued ut Homethini : like $1,100 , and piled it in the sliorilt' hands for safe keeping.

The Chicago , Burlington & Quiricy rail road company filed its answer 10 the demur rage complaint of Barber & Co. , of Omaha , yesterday , before the state board of trans portation , and the issues are fully Joined. Thu respondent respectfully submits : First That the facts stated in complain- nut ! ) ' bill do not constitute a violation of any of the laws of the xtatu of Nebraska.

It can not take care of it unless coimignoot thereat take care of their freight. Fourth That rttsuondout submit * that all that portton of the complaint rolatitg to bringing suit In Jtisttco Wndo's court film * material ana irrelevant , except that the complainants have elected to ptirsito their remedy before the courts , nnd therefore ought to bo barred from further proceedings boioroyour honorable body. Fifth That matter marked exhibit A is wholly irrelevant nnd Immaterial ; that , for reasons stated , nnd for reasons tlmt will bo nmilo to appear on the day of trial , the re spondent nsks tlmt the case be dismissed with costs properly taxed , nml that the com plainants bo compelled to continue their busi ness with respondent hereafter in n spirit of decency nnd common honesty.
