Frequent complaints roach Tun BKE
from passengers on trains and from res
idents of towns in this section , that it is
impossible to yet a copy of Tuu Bui :
from resident news agents and train
newsboys. The claim set up by the lat
ter is : "All holj ; " and then ether
Omaha papers are olTercd instead. In
some instances , when the would-be pur-
'cha'.er insists on getting a copy of TUB
BIE : , it is forthcoming , but train news-
hoys deal them out sparingly , and when
their supply is about exhausted it is
their practice to force ether Omaha
papers on passengers who would not
buy any ether than TUB BKIJ if it could
bo had.
THIS BKI : urges upon everybody the
importance of malting complaint to this
olllce upon failure to got TUB Ban of
news dealers and newsboys. There is
no reason why a full bupply should not
be kept for all demands.
All local news iigonts handling Tun
Biu : are expected to furnish subscribers
the daily , including the Sunday edition ,
at twenty cents a week , and all refusals
to do so should bo reported to this olllce.
Friends of Tun BUB who send com
plaints of failure to purchnso TUB BKU
on trains will ulouso bo particular to
give tliitc. railroad and number of train
on which such purchase could not bo
iiuulc. Give us your name in order that
wn may usk necessary additional par
ticulars.

WITH all the clamor and indignation
ngninst the county commissioners no
I body outsldo of tlio political rut has
boon talked of for commissioner. If
wo tire to have a ohango it should bo
mtulo by the selection of men who have
business capacity to administer the
affairs of the county ,
IK TJIE scramble among the men whc
want to expound the law as justices ol
tha ponce , the barnacles who have boon
running cost-mills for years are most
prominent. The business men of Omaha
as much ns anybody , are interested in
weeding out this class of shysters nnd
cormorants , but when they are once
nominated it will bo very difficult tc
beat thorn ut the polls. There are hall
a dozen reputable justices of the peace
now holding office , and the party coiv
vontlon should give thorn preference.
UALLY AROUND
A grand rally of railroad republicans
is to take plnco next week at Hastings.
The call for this patriotic nssemblngo
has been standing at the head of lliood-
Itorlnl columns of the organs that hnvo
two IVa engraved on their barrel , for
more than a month. The mnglc names
of John Mt Tliurston and Brad D
Slaughter are attached to this bugle
blast , nnd that moans that the boys will
not Do excused for being absent. John
and Brad have served notlco that : v full
representation of clubs Is desired' , nnd
that is a guaranty that everybody will
bo full before the rally is dispersed.
The most suggestive part of
the call is a request to the del
egates to send in their names"
earlv to John Mi , which of course moans
that the sender will receive an inter
state commerce ticket by return mall.
But what does this rally portend ?
What grave and momentous problems
ire to be wrestled with nt Hastings. It
s in accord witli the eternal fitness ot
things that the clubs should rally
around Thurston , just as ether patriots
always hnvo n right to rally around the
lag and an appropriation. But what in
the name of goodness does Tlutrston
want with his clubs in Itastlngs on the
day before the state convention ? Wo
they propose to.roconstruct the supreme
court , or is ! Brad Slaughter going to
8suo commissions fur each and all of
, hem ns deputy United States marshals ?
John M. Tliurston is a good deal of a
practical joker , but ho certainly hns
not called this rally of his clubs for a
quiet poker gome in which clubs are
trumps.
To a man up a tree this rally round
Thurston is suggestive of some scheme
that is to materialize about the time
the convention has concluded its work.
Possibly Thurston fears that the state
convention will not bo able to raise a
quorum or find anybody willing enough
to preside. Tills is merely speculative
on our part , but it is well enough to
keep the people of Nebraska fully In
formed as to the precautions which
Thurston and Slaughter have taken to
prevent the democrats from capturing
the state convention next Wednesday.
J'UHLIC SCHOOLS f.V UTA2I.
Among the suggestions contained in
the annual report of the Utun commis
sion is one advising congress to pass
laws for the establishment Mid control
of a public school system for the terri
tory. There is no question about the
constitutionality of such n course.
As outlined Dy the commission , their
Droposed educational scheme contem
plates a free school system , to bo main
tained by the territory itself out of the
public funds of the territorial treasury.
Tlio power of congress to establish free
schools in Utah can not bo culled
ia question. Public schools , as
much as any ether agency ,
would prove a valuable auxiliary
in the solution of the Mormon question.
At present education in Utali outside of
sectarian schools whore Mormon doc
trines nro taught , is under the control
of various Protestant denominations
who carry on the work so far us prac
ticable , but their saopo and inllucnco is
limited. The "bishops , " "elders" and
apostles of the Mormon church have
o.Norted all their influence to neutrnluo
their good effects. In the 01153 of a
general school system conducted as pro
posed by the commission , that is to
say , under the control of federal
authorities , the bad influences of the
Mormon dignitaries could bettor bo
counteracted and mndo harmless. A
congressional act covering the recom
mendations of the commission should
by all means bo passed , oven though it
bo viewed entirely in the light of an
experiment. Some remedial legisla
tion is necessary , and no batter could
bo suggested than that which would
afford the people of Utah the privileges
of free , non-sectarian education.
A WOltD OF JTVlKiVr.YO.
The republicans of this county have
it within their power to elect their
whole ticket in November if they make
no mistake in selecting their candi
dates. The criminal negligence and
recklessness which the democratic
county commissioners have shown in
the management ot our county nllairs
is n powerful lover for displacing them
and giving republicans control of
county affairs for the next two years.
But this man if os t advantage may be
lost by blunders In the selection of un
popular or unfit republican candidates.
All things being equal , Douglas county
is democratic , aud republicans can only
hope to win by an excellent ticket with
candidates whoso records are clean.
Honest republicans will not vote for
unclean men and men who are known to
have boon derelict to any trust.
It is our desire to eeo a ticket nomin
ated that all republicans and law-abid
ing citizens can conscientiously sup
port. For this reason wo are impelled
to caution the party against a blunder
which is liable to cause disaster. Wo
refer particularly to the candidacy of
Sheriff Coburn. The unwritten law
which hns limited the tenure of county
olllcinls to two terms should not bo departed -
parted from.
Mr. Coburn is , however , laboring
earnestly to break the record , because ,
as he says , ho needs u vindication.
The question is , Shall the republicans
ot this county jeopardize the success of
their wliolo ticket to gratify the am
bition ot tiny man ? Mr. Coburn cannat
say truthfully that THE BEE lias boon
unfriendly to him , or has treated him
unfairly. On the contrary , we have
ninny times ignored complaints against
him nnd refrained from censure where
ho or his subordinates have shown par
tiality to criminals nnd apparently
sought to thwart the ends of justice.
Wo need only to rotor to the Indul
gences granted to John Luuor nnd the
touddrnoss exhibited toward the Boooh-
lor-King woman. Iu the latter case
the whole community was scandalized
by the froe-and-cusy way iu which the
sheriff permitted this woman to ride
about the streets while she was under
indictment for murder.
The studied silence ot the World-
Jferald ut this titno means simply that
its guns are boiug double-shotted for
use against the republican ticket in case
Coburn Is placed at Its head.
The question is , ahull the republican
parly onlor Iho campaign handicapped
by Mr. Coburn. There are ether dead
weights that the party cannot afford to
load up with , and It is * to bo hoped the
majority of the convention will not
commit the folly of on to ring upon n , do
fonslvo campaign , in which the repub
lican press is to ho given the tusk ot
apologizing for Its candidates.
Boss HUMS in Maryland rooolvos a
staggering blow by the desertion ot the
Young Moil's democratic club ol Balti
more. For yoara the state has boon
ruled nnd hurried to rula by the Gor-
mnn's and Illgglnsos. Every attempt
to redeem it nntl vitalize the character
ot the ofllcoholders was crushed by the
all-powerful party dictators. They
brooked no opposition , rotusod recog
nition to the young element ot the
party and contemptuously spurned the
demands for reform. The resolutions
adopted by the seceding club indicate
the growing distrust which the arro-
Bunt party managers has created. They
declare that the voice ot the people is
stilled atid that the interests ot the
state are subordinate to the solllsh
schemes ot the ring. They further do-
eltiro that they will use all legitimate
uioiins to defeat a tlukot born of fraud
and fathered by avarice. The club is
composed ot a largo number ot Influen
tial young men. In joining forces with
the republicans their example will have
great weight with disaffected demo
crats , und is certain to hasten the
downfall ot bossism in Maryland.
NKXT to the hypocrite the demagogue
is the most despicable of creatures. The
editor of the Ioublo-ondor belongs to
that species. When the postolllco site
was uudor discussion , and lie was laying
the pipes to got eighty thousand dollars
out of Undo Sam for lots ho owns in
Planters' house square , ho yelped him
self hoarse about sol fish schemers , and
howled night and day about the damage
which the city was sultoring by the
delay which prevented tlio immediate
erection of great business blocks in the
neighborhood of the Planters' house.
Now that Hascall and ether candi
dates for re-election nro tossing the city
hall contract back and forth under uro-
tense that they want to help homo
labor , this public spirited- citizen , who
is always building groal , hotels , opera
houses and air-castles , but never builds
anything , is in accord with the mounte
banks and endorses the move whiuh ho
knows will again delay the construction
of the city hall. While Unscall is bid
ding for votes lie is bidding for sub
scribers among the working classes ,
whoso conlldenco and patronage ho has
never been able to got by his hypocriti
cal pretenses of sympathy.
ACCORDING to a decision just rendered
by the supreme court of Now York , the
owners of elevators in any building are
common carriers. The suit in which
this decision was rendered was brought
ny a passenger who had ooon injured
by an accident to the elevator , duo to a
defect of the piston rod , which , the
owners claimed , no possible cure on
their part could discover. The court in
deciding for the plaintiff hold that they
occupied the same relation towards the
passengers they curried as do stage or
railroad companies. The fact that the
owners ot such elevators do not exact a
charge does not seem to enter the ques
tion. The decision murks a de
parture from the fundamental principle
that governs the liability of common
carriers. By the same course of reas
oning the owner of any building would
bo liable for any accident that might
befall people while ascending or de
scending an ordinary stairway.
THE action of the warden of the state
penitentiary in discharging throe Wyo
ming convicts without the consent of
the authorities of the territory , is an
unwarranted proceeding. There was
no justification for the action. The
state agreed when Jho prisoners were
received to provide for their mainten
ance at a certain price , and was in duty
bound to keep thorn until the authori
ties "f Wyoming could provide for them
elsewhere. The law did not authorize
their discharge , because they were not
subject to the lawb of Nebraska. Instead
o ( turning them over to the territorial
ollloials tlio warden a umed the power
to discharge thorn , oven without the
usual papers , and arrogantly ordered
thorn out of the slato. The action of the
penitentiary olllcinls should bo inquired
into by the proper authority.
RIVALS for tho-capital prize in South
Dakota should cheerfully bow to the
verdict of the electors. The bitterness
engendered by- the contest should bo
buried , and a common olTort made to
lay a broad and deep foundation for tlio
now common wealth. The avenues of
enterprise nnd activity nro continually
broadening. Millions of acres of fertile
land will soon bo ndddd to the cultiva
ble area of the now state. This moans
a large inllux of Bottlers and material
progress. If the unsuccessful towns
will turn their attention to those invit
ing channels of trade and ox pond on
them a fraction of the moans and energy
wasted in the recent contest , the profits
in growth and prosperity will far ex
ceed the benefits of the capital location.
A UXITKD STATUS judge in Iowa has
decided that railroad companies have no
right to suspend the operation of nonpaying -
paying brunches. Tlio franchise
granted to build the road carries with
H the duty of keeping it open for pub
lic use. If sustained by tlio supreme
court the decision will have a salutary
effect. It will prevent railroad man
agers from punishing communities lo
cated on brunch lines for the ollonsivo
acts ot railroad commissioners and
chock in the future thp building of rail
roads from nowhere to nowhere.
TtiiiiiK is n dilTerenco of opinion as to
the date upon which Judge ( Jroff's sue- *
cossor , to bo chosen at the November
election , will uMsumo the duties of his
olllco. Judge Douno is of the opinion
that the man chosen to succeed Judge
GrolT will not enter upon his duties
until January , and that the present
three judges will have to attend to the
buainobsof the courts until that time
unless Governor Thayer appoints a man
to till the vacancy lu the interim.

The next buttle to bo fought by the state
militia will occur early in tlio spring. Major
John C. Watson advises us ttiat the next

curate history a bungling blunuor , written
with a dull quill and composed utterly with
out thought. This is all explained , however ,
when it la remembered that Mr. Watson was
court-martialed for using urofanity in his
history. The next time ho writes a history
ho may find some other widely circulated
newspaper in which to publish his rot. The
Call washes its hands of the last miserable
atrocity , and hereby resigns as the offlcial
organ ot Governor Thaysr and the state inl-
litia. The whole thing was a libel , and the
Call is thinking seriously of suoing itself and
incarcerating its editors. There is no use iu
monkeying with cold , clammy reason. Wo

with "Richelieu'1 as the nluy , und was sup

enthusiastic nudlcnco not only gave hearty
welcome to the star , but greatly enjoyed his
presentation of the character. It was a
strong , artistic nnd very Interesting per
formance , each charnctor home well BUS-
tinned from llrat to last , thus giving promi
nence to both story nnd plot ns well ns dra
matic coloring and splendid cfTcct
to the easily reached cliiniixcs. With
the advance of years , to which mny bo
coupled ripening experience , it is not dllllcult
to discern much improvement In Mr.
Keene'a work. Notwithstanding the fact
that for several years ho h.vs ocun recog
mzcd na nn iictor of great conception , rare
talent and artistic work , his superiority
showed Itself only In ono or two plays , not
ably In Kichanl HI. , which press and public
pronounced his mnstcrplocu. Uut ho hns
broadened his field , proved Ilia caiubllltlos
of encompassing everything in tlio line of
tragedy , and next to Edwin Hooth is un-
douutedly the greatest tragedian in this
country to-day. That his "Kicliollou" will
compare favorably with tlio "Uichcliuu" of the
Nester of thu stage will bo admitted by
everyone who witnessed last nfght's per
formance. Its Impression upon the audience
wns niiiilo manifest in repeated outbursts of
applause and u curtain call at the end of
every net. Mr. Kcone's comprehension of
the character , wonderful throughout , was
not more intclliguntly portrayed iu the action
and general expression than in the manner
In which ho inteipreU the lines , giving
proper weight to over word , corrcxt meaning
to every sontunco , nnd delivering them in
such modulation of voice an to bring out the
points and curry conviction to the mind. AH

J7 best to wash up with after work is done. It removes dirt and
grease quickly , and is easily rinsed off leaving the skin soft and
smooth. IVOUY SOAP floats , so if dropped into the water is not
lost , for it rises quickly to the top and floats like a chip. IVORY
