THE return of Commissioner Turner from Now York once more reunites Douglas county's happy family. Now let the committee report upon the alleged vault steal. Tm < : Ciiieago papers have condensed their usual flings at St. Louis to make room for long-winded editorial blows at New York. This is as it should bo an oven match or no fight. IN its wild desire to make a reputation as a monopoly fighter , the Itcpublicun hits out blindly at the local management of the Western Union Telegraph company. But , sau to relate , the premise had no bottom. THE work of the delegates to the con stitutional conventions in the four new statoa is about over and now they will return to their respective constituen cies to be patted affectionately on the back for well merited praise. JUST because a petrified hand clenching - ing a fistful of diamonds is said to have been found near Kearney , it is not noc- * ssary to herald Nebraska abroad as a new diamond field. Better than all the diamonds and rubies in the world is the great corn crop which will be gath ered in this state this full. THE lead ere problem in which the people of Wyoming , Colorado , Mon tana and Utah are deeply interested still sits heavily upon the shoulders of the assistant secretary of the treasury. Since the 16th of May ho lias Imd the question under advisement , and as yet has given little indication of arriving at a conclusion. A great mass of testi mony has boon brought to his attention , and it ia this evidence that ho is trying to digest. Probably by the time congress - gross assumblos an answer will bo given turning the solution of the problem over to that body. Tni ! suspicion is well grounded thnt the gobbling up of Omaha's river front by ofilcinls of the Union Pacific nnd Burlington railroads isjiot without significance. It is all very well for thorn to innko glittering promises of ox- tonslvc improvements on the bottom lands for manufacturing , warehousing and storage purposes. The truth of the matter is , however , that their scheme la nothing more nor loss t'utn ' an at tempt to prevent the erection of another railroad bridge across the Missouri within the corporate Hmlta of the city. Their mask IB altogether too transpar ent. The building of a new railroad bridge ia an imperative necessity and cannot bo prevented by any such con spiracy. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ OMAHA'S growth In population dur ing four years past has few parallels in American history. The increase of her importance as a jobbing nnd financial center has boon the innrvol of the com mercial world ; her architecture has leaped from the cradle of village simplic ity Into full equality with any western city. All this is gratifying , because it la the result of a kind providence , nat ural advantages of location , and al mighty hard work. But there ia the ftituro to look to. No man can measure the limits of Omaha two decades honco. It isn't worth time spent to try it' , but if every man will do his utmost for the publio good , lot him bo assured he will alco bo doing the most for his private woll-being. TllE COMMISSIONS SUCCESS. The reports from Standing Rock uni Cheyenne ngonelcs indicate thnt the opening of the great Sioux rosorvatioi is assured. Latest advices nnnouuci that the requisite number of name have been secured to make up n total o throe-fourths of nil the Indiana competent tent to votoon the pro position , and thn signatures nro still being added , both n these and other agencies. The conclusion of the work of th ( commission calls for comment on tin difficulties which it has experience ( and the moans finally adopted to sur mount thorn. The primal trouble wa caused by the secret chicanery ot tin hand of so-called Indian phllanthro plsts in the cast , whoso sentimental re gnrd for the impossible Indian ha balked for years every effort mnd < to reduce the Indian problem U a soluble oquation. That pi on fraud , Dr. Bland , who ha nctod as a professional philmithropis and persistent claim agent for Rot Cloud nnd his lost ponies , in which lit is said to have had a half interest blocked the way first at Pine Ridge agency nnd seriously menaced the suc cess of. subsequent negotiations. Th < squaw men , hnlf-broeds and agency cof fee coolers wore persistent opponents o any sottlotnont of the rcsorvat'or ' question which might force them t < give up the lariat for the plover or the six shooter for the school Added to these disturbing-elements wa ! the elnuso in the bill indemnifying tin Ogallnln Sioux for losses in the war o 1870 and excluding consideration of the claims of other tribes. Local jcnlousj was the natural consequence. The part played by the military portion tion of the commission was an interest ing and suggestive one. Genera Crook's influenceas expected , was pow erful , but it seemed necessary later to rolnforco It by the as- sistnnco of Captain Randall , wh ( was called post haste from Amoni to use his argumentative powers amonj the tribes with whom ho was once sc popular nnd persuasive , The congres sional otatory of Major Wnrnor nnd the dime novel flights of Governor Fostoi appear to have had loss weight with Gall nnd his band than the sententious remarks of the grizzled veteran of t hundred Indian fights , while the quiet man to man work of Captain Randall rapidly changed opposition to advocacy , The news of the commission's success will bo received with general congratu lation throughout the northwest. II moans the final removal of a barrier which for years has prevented the de velopment of eleven millions of acres ol Land with which the red soil of Oklahonin can brook as little comparison as that ol eastern Now Hampshire with Nebraska. The throwing open of the great reserve means in addition the peopling of n neighboring frontier with thousands of hardy settlers -who will be largely tributary to Nebraska's trade centers. Omaha has peculiar nnd overmastering interest i.i a territory which she will bo nblo tc control just.in proportion to the wants of its population ant } the push , vigor ivnd enterprise of her merchants. NEBRASKA POLITICS. It is predicted that the coining repub lican state convention will be the most uxcitiner over held in Nebraska in an oil year. This unusual interest will not be an account of the offices to be immedi ately filled , but because of the bearing which the selection of the candidates will have on the gubernatorial cam paign a year from this coming fall. The preliminary skirmish is already on , al though the date of the convention haslet lot yet boon fixed. The state committee meets in Omaha ihis evening and will decide where the convention shnll bo hold. While the choice of the convention city may not have any political significance , still It s charged that the efforts made by [ Tastings to secure the gathering nro n the interest of General C. J. Dil- ivorth as a candidate for justice jf the supreme court. This , how- jvor , these who favor Hastings lony , and General Dilworth has smphaticnlly stated that he is notacan- lidate and that "no valid objections anvo boon given why Judge Reese should not bo returned to the place hems : ms faithfully filled. " In spite of this declaration by Judge [ ) ilworth , there are these who believe 10 will bo pushed by the railroads for the ioat on the supreme bench. Both Judge [ Tamer and Judge Post are also openly in the field tvnd in cnso of Dilworth's 'allure to secure the prize , ono or the ithor will undoubtedly receive the liearty support of the railroad cohorts. The plans above outlined are alleged , o bo but u scheme in the interest of jenoral A. U , Connor , of Kearney , who is alllicted with a severe case of guber natorial fever. They are , however , , inblo to fall through. It is too early in , ho season , considering the numberless candidates who are willing nnd anxious M serve Nebraska in the capacity o ( jovornor , to fix a slnto which can not jo smashed before a year and a half oils round. CLEARINGS. The clearings of the associated banks jf the United States nro published in iho Commercial nnd Financial Chronicle , .ho standard and reliable authority on iinnncinl matters in this country , nnd the figures as published are correct and properly grouped. But these figures under analysis prove the incorrectness jf the old adage that "figuros won't Ho , " because in this instance they are mis- loading. Kansas City reports clearings for the ivook ending July 27 , $7oU,7ll. : Omaha reports 8-1,628,201 , indicating that Kan- ms City's trade for thnt week was as 7 is to 4 against this city. To make proper nnd correct deductions it should be borne in mind that Kansas City stuffs Its cloaringB , first , with the busi- iioso of the Atchlson , Topeka & Santa Fo Railway company , which belongs to Topeku , whore the head quarters of the road nro located and where its deposits should bo mndo and cleared. Through the influence of Kansas City bankers , however , the re ceipts of that heavy corporation , amounting to over three-quarters of n million weekly , are son I as received in the company's safes to Kansas City and go to swell the business of the banks there. Then , ngnhitho packing house business of Kansas City Is done through the banks of that burg , whereas the business ot Onmha'a packing houses h done through the branch banks ( at South Omaha ) of the First National and Omaha National , of Omaha , nnd as most of this business can bo cleared by mes sengers botwcon these two branches , It docs not coino to the clearing house hero. On this Omnhn loses about eight hundred thousand dollars per wcok in the cleat-ings footing. Then , once moro , it is well known in banking circles thnt the cashiers of the Kansas City banks , awnro of the flecadonco of their city , nro in the habit of holdine cashiers' chocks received in settlement at then clearing house till next day nnd passing them through again , in a toad of obtain ing the currency from debtor banks by messenger. Omaha also stands lower In the clear ing house tables by the loss of much of the Btnolting works business , which amounted to ono and a half millions per month , the greater bulk of which does not pass through the clearing house for the reason thut the smelting works company deposits with the bank through which nine-tenths of the col lections upon the company nro mndo , and the drafts are simply charged uji and do not go through the clearings. In these divers ways Omaha loses in the estimation of these at a distance who are wont to estimate the activity prevailing in commercial circles by the footings rendered from the clearing houses of the respective cities inter ested , and it is just as well that It bo understood that the clearings hero show loss wlnlo her neighbors show more than the facts. Visitors to both Kansas City and Omaha are not slow , however , to express the opinion thnt this city is going to the front as a commercial center faster than Kansas City is retrograding , and wo know that wo are getting to the front very rapidly. AMERICAN SHIPPING INDUSTRY. It may occasion some surprise that American citizens have gradually gained a controlling interest in the great Inmnn line of transatlantic steamships. In fact , but a small portion of its stock is now owned on the other side of the water , although the line is ailed under the British fiag. The re vival in shipping interests during the post year or two all over the world has boon phenomenal. Ocean trnlllo has called into service all kinds of bottoms , especially steamships , and rates have doubled and trebled as compared with the rates of a few years ago. Capital has naturally been attracted to steamship building and sailing , and the monster floating pal aces turned out by the foreign ship yards attest the profitableness of the business. There is little question that the ship ping interests of America would have been materially advanced to-day were it not for the fact that for years this country has been handicapped in its ability to compete with the Scotch and English in the building of iron ships. Our injurious shipping laws which for bid the sailing of a foreign built ship under the American flag have likewise contributed in depressing the industry , and in driving the American jack from the high seas. Happily there are signs which indicate that America will soon take her place again among the maritime nations of the earth. The impetus given to ship building by the government in the con struction of steel-armored sb ips of war has demonstrated the ability of our ship yards to cope with the best on the Clyde and Thames. Capitalists have been quick to recognize this advantage , and the chances are that within a short lime largo orders will bo placed for the building ot fleets of American steamers for transatlantic traffic. A project has boon announced in maritime circles for the operation of a fast steamship line botwcon England and the United Statos. Mr. Austin Corbin is at the head of this enter prise , and the preliminaries are said to bo already arranged. Such a line would bo the pioneer of similar stcnmshiu companies and would induce confidence in the iron industry such as it has not enjoyed for many a day. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ THE PHESIDEN'FS OlTTtXG. President Harrison started yesterday on his trip to the Maine coast , whore ho will spend so mo time in courting the sea breezes and visiting Mr. Blnino amid the rocks and tides of Bar Harbor. It is significant of the high pressure of executive Ufo that the president finds it impossible to leave behind him ofiicial cures oven for n few weeks , and that ho travels pursued by the impor tunities of seekers after ofllco , and ac companied by his secretaries and boxes of tape-tied documents. His last moments before leaving Wash ington wore devoted to interviews with politicians , and it is safe to assume thnt almost his first in Maine will bo spent in consideration of consular claims. In deed , we are informed that much of the delayed business of the slate depart ment will bo finally disposed of when the president and Mr. Blaine are able to put their heads together and discuss the olllcial matters which have boon accumulating for the past month in the files of the department of state. The situation in Hnyti , the Bob- ring sea troubles , nnd the approaching congress of the throe Americas will all como up for consideration , together with the claims of a number of Ameri can citizens in Central America for indemnity for damage to property. Half a hundred consulates remain to bo filled and the extra session problem is to bo definitely determined. Altogether , President Harrison will have to combine a great deal of busi ness with his pleasure. Ho found it im possible to lleo from its consideration at Deer Park , among the Allcghonios. IIo will find it equally impracticable to elude it on the sea washed crags of Maine. The importunities for ofllco , the demands of executive functions and the clamors of pressing atTuirs of state must bo with him whorovcr ho goes. Under our system of govern ment , especially at the inception of u now administration , the veriest drudge chained tonfTofllco desk is loss driven with , work fund responsibility and hnr- nsalntr cart llinn the chief executive of the nation'Ji' Qongross inny adjourn nnil congressmen fyumt on junketing tvlna to Alaska J jnd the Ules of the sea ; may investigate railroad relations through pSrll-colored wlno glasses ot inspect folho hundredth time the wonders otn vfcstorn scenery with Inci dental rofdycneo to palace car irriga tion and o&tjerlor water storngo. But the president in his very recreation is shadowed Wfbfllcial responsibility and dogged by Ihb cry of hungry olflco sock- era , bo hls' resting plnco the White House or the train , the mountains or the sea , _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Tun first nnnunl cavalry competition for the department of Dakota , the Pintle and the Columbia , which takes plnco this week at the Bellevue rifle range , will excite the interest of the array all over the United Statos. The practice includes a woolc of known dis tance firing and skirmish firing and n week of competition firing with car bine nnd revolver. This is a distlnctli now feature in army practice , the re sult of which will bo closely followed. If successful there is little doubt but that its scope will bo enlarged and its importance- bo duly magnified. TG both olllcers nnd men In the cavalry service , the competition cnn not fail to bo of great value. Not alone will it ralso their efficiency , but will kindle that enthusiasm and that esprit do corps which so much distingushcs the foreign service. The competition ol the infantry rifle practice just closed atBullovuo has boon eminently satis factory , and there is every reason to be hove that the marksmen in the cavalry will distinguish themselves in no less degree. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ E3HGKA.T10N to the United States has perceptibly fallen oft" within the p.ist few months , contrary to general expec tations. For the month of July the number arriving at Castle Garden was less than twenty-five thousand , just four thousand short of tlio record for the corresponding time last year. The cause of this diminution is traced to the great efforts made by various countries to divert emigration to their own col- onios. England offers extra induce ments to her immigrants to go to Aus tralia or Canada , while Germany is actually sending out her stir plus popula tion to colonize her possessions in Africa. The tempting offers of the South Amor- ionn republics have drawn thousands of Italians in Unit direction and the chances are tha America's record for the year will sliow a marked decrease all around. PHILADELPHIA presents some inter esting figures touching on the number of arrests ma4o | n that city for the year ending Juno 11889. . It appears that the decrease as compared with the twelve months' , preceding was no less than eight thousand five hundred. The reason for this ! improvement in the moral tone of tlio people is credited to the operations of high license. Under the old systota of low license , an ex ceedingly largo number of saloons flourished , especially in the poorer riuartors of the city. The operations of high license cut down fully one-third nnd raised the standard of the saloons now in operation. There may , of course , bo other grounds for explaining Lho diminution of crime in that city , but the ono in question is certainty the most reasonable. THE success of the Gentiles In carry ing the municipal election in Salt Lake is of moro than local Interest. It is the first time in the history of the city that the control of its affairs will pass out of Mormon hands. Although numerically in the majority , the anti-polygamy laws tmvo disfranchised so many Mormons that the victory of the Gontlles was al most a foregone conclusion. There is : onsoquently great cause for rejoicing , is it indicates that Salt Lake , for the present , at least , is not to bo dominated by church influence , which has been juoh a powerful factor in retarding its jrowth and importance. Judging from the effect ot Gentile supremacy in Og- lon , Salt Lake is likely to experience a revival in business and to push its way rapidly to the front. CiTiiiS are now learning the value of franchises for street railways and like privileges , and many nro adopt ing the policy of selling thorn to the highest bidder , or exacting a bonus for certain rights and grants. This by no means indicates that by the sale , such nities part with their right of super vision and control. On the contrary , the charters granted to corporations and syndicates for a valuable consideration bind them under greater restrictions Lhr.n when such franchises are given for the asking. The determination of Cleve land , O. , to exact a bonus hereafter for flghts-of-way on the streets of that city will bo watched with interest. A largo revenue from various sources will inure lo the city's bojietit without in the least affecting the legitimate profits of com panies holding subh franchises.
