TUB Introduction In congress of bills
confer on states the powers exorcised
previous to the original package do-
iislon promises to loud to an endless
unount of restrictive legislation. If
iongruss should see fit to extend to the
Itates the power to exclude what the
: ourt holds to bo an article of interstate
xmimorco , why should It not Include
> ther articles as well oa liquor ? The
lalrymou of Now York are already do-
minding the right to exclude olcomur-
ftirino imported from othnr states , nl-
ihough the article Is under federal regu
lation. The local butchers who
have In various states attempted to
txcludo dressed beef by u system
> f rigorous Inspection laws may bo ox *
poctod to plead for exclusion of western
packed meats. Other state interests
vill undoubtedly demand Uko proteo-
Slon should congress inaugurate the now
lepurturo. In the end wo shall have
Chinese walls erected around the states ,
Interstate commerce circumscribed by
jitolorant legislation and the freedom
' ( trade chocked by Injurious laws.
CAL'Ct'S DICTATION.
It is not an edifying fact that n large
number of republicans in the house ol
representatives confess that they voted
for the tnrllT bill In obcdlonco to caucus
dictation. They did not believe the
measure an a whole to bo for Iho bcs
interests of the country nnd wcro nnx
lous for Its amendment and modlflca
lion in many respects , but yet thoj
gave It their support because the
caucus had BO ordered. Some o
thcHo republicans undoubtedly fee' '
very strongly that Iho hill Is In ninny o
Its features an unjust and oven danger
ous measure , for It Is said they will en
dt-avor to secure amendments to It ii
the fionnte , but they had not the Indo-
pomlcnco to assert their conviction !
against the demand of the caucus and
perform their duty In the direction ol
what they believed to bo In the public
Interest and for the general good. Tlili
may bo necessary to party discipline , but
it in not honest statesmanship , nnd it
tends to destroy the confidence of the
people in the integrity and sincerity ol
their representatives.
The truth Is that the substitution ol
the party caucus for the deliberate judg
ment of congress , which has como into
practice of Into years with respect to all
important questions , cannot bo regarded
as ji safe system for promoting wise legis
lation or one tending to elevate Ameri
can statesmanship. Its effect is to enable -
able a- cabal of politicians of either
party to exercise despotic rule over the
opinions and consciences of others , and tc
take from men their right of independ
ent action according to tlioir convictions
and ECIISO of duty. Unquestionably
there arc circumstances in which it is
desirable that the representatives of a
party shall bo united nnd harmonious.
Conferences and consultations among
members of the parties in congress with
reference to questions of organization
and policy are admittedly necessary.
But this docs not require or justify a
system which compels men to sup
port every party measure brought
forward , regardless of the interests they
represent nnd what they believe to bo
for the general welfare , or accept thonl-
tornativo of party ostracism. If the cau
cus bus become the despotic power which
it would boom to bo from the confession
of many republican congressmen , then
there is no chance for elevated and inde
pendent statesmanship while it survives ,
and the country must receive its legisla
tion from the hands of the mere poli
ticians , guided by their selfish ambition
and contioiled by the least worthy of in
fluences.
fj vooi.isa.
The proposed addition to the inter
state commerce act , introduced in the
hemito by Mr. Dawes nnd into the house
by Mr. Gear , providing for a system of
provisional pooling between competing
lines of railroad , will doubtless bo ap
proved by the busine&s public and by
railroad men. it proppses to allow
agreements appoitioning the carriage of
competitive trnlllc , so that each compet
ing line shall carry a reasonable
share , but without relieving common
carriers of other provisions of the act ,
affecting the jurisdiction and authority
of the commission and courts under the
law , or permitting the divorbion of trall'ie
consigned by shippers over any specified
lines. Such agreements must bo filed
with the interstate commerce commis
sion , which bhall have power to annul or
modify thorn if in operation they tire
found to contravene the provisions of
the act. It is very generally con
ceded by those who have given
careful attention to the subject that a
plan of legalized pooling is desirable ,
and it is contended by the most experi
enced and conservative railroad men
that in no other way can frequent and
ruinous rate wars bo avoided. The ex
periment is certainly worth a trial in
the interest both of the bu ineos public ,
which desires settled rates , and of the
railroads , which are subjected to seri
ous loss from frequently recurring j-oii-
IHcts. The system proposed by the bills
introduced in both branches of congress
appears to bo amply guarded against
abuse and yet sufllciontly broad tosouuro
the best results from an honest appor
tionment of competitive tr.ullio.
THK KKM31L1111 Al'l'IlAK DISMISSED.
The supreme < jourt of the United States
has declined to interfere in the case of
Kommler , the New York murderer who
is under sentence to bo put to death by
electricity. The only hope of the con
victed man is now in the clemency of the
governor , and it is not at all probable
that ho will interfere with the wutenro.
Few criminal eases have commanded
such widespread interest as this , wholly
by reason of the now penally of death
by electricity which Kommlor will
bo the first person in the world to suffer.
Extraordinary efforts have been made
in his behalf , not only In the courts , but
in working upon public faontimenl. Some
of the most influential papers in Now
York have persistently opposed the In
fliction of death by electricity as being
both cruel and unusual , and a great deal
of public sentiment has boon developed
against the now law. After all the
ordinary efforts for saving the life
of Kemmlor had been made
without avail , the now law was
attacked on the ground that it was un
constitutional in that it prescribed a
cruel and unusual punishment , the con
stitution of Now York containing the
same language as the federal constitu
tion in this relation. The court of ap
peals , the highest tribunal of the state ,
after very careful deliberation decided
that the law was not liable to the objec
tions made by counsel for the prisoner.
Thereupon reparations wore begun to
curry out the sentence , which was to
have been executed in the first week of
the present month , but a day or two before -
fore the time arrived a writ of habeas
corpus was obtained from the federal cir
cuit court which deferred the execution
of the sentence and an application was
made to the supreme court to review the
decision of the Now York court. The
ground of this application was that the
tttuto statute violated the federal consti
tution. To this the attorney general of
Now York replied that there was no federal -
oral question involved , nnd this view was
sustained by the decision of the supreme
court , which says in effect that the whole
matter of urescrlblug a form of punish
ment rests with the states , and that there
was nothing lu the decision of the court
of appeals 6f Now York to justify federal -
oral Interference.
The importance of this decision docs
nol and with the Kcmmler case. The
question of substituting death by elec
tricity for hanging Is very likely to bo
generally agitated In the event of the ex
periment in Now Yorjc being sue-
ccssful , as undoubtedly it will be ,
and it is well to have It settled
that this form of punishment maybe
bo prescribed without danger of
federal Interference. It is pretty well
understood that the persistent eflort to
overthrow the Now York law has boon ,
largely influenced by the electrical com
panies , and they have .now nothing left
to Work upon but public sentiment. If
death by electricity shall prove to bo
less cruel than by hanging public senti
ment will at once approve it and Its prac
tice will soon become general.
nv TIIK H.IXVS OF
Our city council is composed of ten re
publicans and eight democrats. With a
clear control of the council these repub
licans nro in honor bound to prevent the
removal of republican officials except for
cause. They are equally in honor bound
to prevent by their votes and influence
the substitution of a democrat for a
republican ofllcer whoso time has
expired , unless ho has proven himself to
bo Incompetent or dishonest. But seen
of these lepublicans , ChalTeo , Wheeler ,
Shrivor , Olsen , MoLcario. Davis and
Blumor have doliberaloly entered into a
corrupt combination with the democrats
to Indel out Iho municipal palronago lo
spoilsmen and play into the hands of
boodling contractors.
It is an open secret that this combina
tion of the council was secured by down
right bribery and is held together by the
cohesive power of plunder. It has been
publicly charged that certain members of
this combine wore bought u hen the pres
ent council organized and this scandal
has been ignored by the council because
a searching investigation \\ould not only
break up the combine , but land some of
its members behind iron bars.
The desperate cllort which is being
made by the junta of conspirators ,
known as the Broatch Tammany club , to
foico the appointment of Uirkhnuser as
chairman of the board of public works
is only Iho forerunner of a general raid
upon the city treasury and Ihe tax-
pay ore.
Why should any republican in Iho
council enter into n combination with
democrats to depose Major Balcombo
and substitute ti man as utterly inex
perienced in publicworlcs as Birkhausei11
Why do these republicans besiege the
mayor to displace Major BalcomboV Is
it not manifest that they want a pliant
tool in charge of our public \\orlcs in
place of a man who will protect the pub
lic interests ?
Why should the business partner of
Councilman Blumor bo delected of all
other men for this position ?
Is there not scandal enough already
in the notorious ownership of certain
councilmcn1 by franchise corporations ?
Is the city to bo sacked and its taxpayers
pillaged by men who wore elected to
take caio of ils hftorests and manage its
n flairs. Must the citizens of. Omaha
band themselves together lilcujLho citi
zens of several largo eoMern cities that
have been infested and robbed by
boodling city and county officials.

The licensing bill Introduced In the British
parliament by Lord Kandolph Churchill Is
one of the most noteworthy measures of the
present session. The plan of dealing with
the liquor question , which is suggested for
England and Wales , Is evidently modeled In
part on the Gothenburg system , which has
been successfully carried out in Sweden. Tlio
fundamental principles of this system are a
great reduction in the number oflltnior shops
and a corresponding Improvement In the
character of these licensed , a provision that
the sale of food shell bo nn inseparable ad
junct of the sulo of liquor , and the delegation
of exclusive authority over the licensing to
local authorities Lord Knmlolph proposes
that every county In England shall bo di
vided into licensing divisions , for each of
which a committee of the county council \vill
be appointed mutually to net ns n licensing
commission. Their powers as to the sup
pression of licenses and the selection of li
censees will bo absolute anil llnal. The bill
itself , liowcx cr , suppresses the mostnumcrous
elasrf of licensed houses. There are tit present
tinco impoitnnt classes of licenses for the sale
of liquor to be chunk on the premises. These
uro the publican's or spirit retailer's license ,
which authorises the sale of all liquors ,
whether distilled or fermented ; the beer
house license , and the wino license , taken
out by the keeper of a hotel or eating house
It Is the Innumerable beer houses which Lord
Kamlolpu would destroy at a blow. It is
true that any person now holding u beer
house license may apply for u publican's
license ; but , as this would imply the posses
sion of a Inrpcr capital , an Improvement in
the character of the house anil quality of the
beverages sold could bo relied upon. The
licensing commission will be authori/cd not
only to determine how many licenses shall he
issued in a given division , but to regulate the
hours of opening and closing mid the struc
ture of licensed houses. A fcatmo of this
bill , \vhich has no analogue in the liquor leg
islation of the United States , is the provision
for compensating the present holders of li
censes , who through the operation of the pro
posed law would fail to get their licenses re-
neucd. This provision will bo vehemently
opposed by the English prohibitionists , but it
is certain , on the other liund , to bo supported
by a majority of both political patties ,
though thcio will , no doubt , be a difference of
opinion regal ding tl e principle on which the
amount of compensation is to bo ascertained.

The distinctive feature of French politics
today is the prominence of Jiscal matters M.
r.lelinc , the protcctlauLst loader , Is finding un
intense opposition tb his policy developing
among the silk sind' woolen manufacturer- ,
who , with other victims to the French agri
cultural interest * , hro now sending their
protests thick .mJ fast to the capital.
Another clement ot' difticulty , too , Is newfound
found among the socialists and radicals who ,
in the chamber the other day , demanded that
duties bo laid upiii foreign labor , as well as
upon foicign lood products and raw ma
terials. While -piotcetlonists have full
) ewer , in the face ol thU growing opposi
tion , together w ith the complications caused
: > y the German treaty , it is not unlikely that
discussion and infraction during the next
year will effect a settlement which will not
favor cxtlusively one gt cat interest us against
mother. The fact that the prosperity of
Franco laigoly depends upon her foteign
tr.ulo will not long bo lost sight of. On the
other hand , if the present protectionist
u'ogiammo reaches consummation , the
United States of America aio not HUcly
to iccclvc any favors The French farmer
tins as llttlo Itkingfor Ametican food produi ts
is his German Inothcr ; and that American
igicultural ( inteicsts arc likely to sufter is
cci tain in view of the fact that the French
.uolcctionist . movement ilorivcs its strength
fiom the farming interests. The fundamental
ininciplo of M. Mclinc's fiscal scheme is a
combination ot a maximum and minimum tar-
ff. The minimum will lu thu teal tariff for
the protection ot homo inteiests , while the
n iximum rate is designed especially for such
i nation us "refuses to give us the same ad
vantages which itaccords to other counti ics ; "
which is interpreted by Melino us meaning
that Franco will ictaliato against any coun
try , not necessarily in kind but in anything
; hit the Fionch tu\ gathering power can
touch.

Notwithstanding the fart that every gov-
cuiment of Enropo ptoclaiins its desire for
icacc , the possibility ot war still overhangs
: ho gre.it powers. Each ono is increasing Its
mnnments. Tills Implies that behind the

serious mcnau * * . Therd are no sj mptoms of
icgotiutions looking to better understandings ;
lope tor that .scorns , for tlio moment , to huvo
icon abandoned mid the manifest disposition
s to stand pn'p.ned for the worst As usual ,
Russia's brute aspirations for aggression are
, lu > ihof ! source of danger , and Emperor Will-
am is evidently in nn mood to apply the Mud
of salvo by which his grandfather bo long
averted conflict with that power. His plucky
utterances at IConigsbcrg uro a plain Intima

i'horc can bo no settled peace in Europe

nnd Russia Is placed in such a position that

The International prison congress will meet
n St. Petersuurg'in'.luno , by Invitation of
the czar , and Ihero Is an impression that the
meeting can only result In u fiasco. It is sug
gested that any discussion of prison abuses
would boa reflection on the management of
Peter and Paul and ! ought to send the con
gress to Siberia . , Any condemnation of
cruelty , and any ivvjniimendatlon of modern
methods of sanitation and discipline , would
: ondumn Uussian'jfjjjthods | severely , anil
tiring the police UQWJI upon the conference.
[ f the czar would 'Only * throw the prisons
In Hussla and Siberia open to the com
mission and let them report full result *
of their unrestricted interviews with
prisoners , the world would learn , nt least ,
what prisons should not he. Mr. Konnau
ias bceu a sufficient prison reform commis
sion for Russia already. But the czar Is not
pleased with Air. Kcmmn , and as It is not at
nlljlkcly that ho will engage their oxpoit
services In such a tour , thu congress will not
bo likely to Uvirn much In Hussla , and all the
world knows what a hopeless task it is to
teach the cvar anything. This congress 1 }
qulto an important body. Its membership
a from twonty-Uvo sovereign states , and
numbers some three huulrod , mostly speclal-
stu , Its provident Is the prince of Olden-
burn , With this congress will raect'tUo ini i
tcnmtlon criminal law union. This body 1
smaller limn the Other , and is largely com
posed of Jurists nnd professors from the con
tlncntal universities. Its aim Is to determine
the principles upon which society shall act it
its dealings with criminals.

Bismarck did not decline a dukedom because -
cause ho felt that ho was too poor to keep up
the position of a duko. Ho is very wealthy ;
there uro few Germans richer than ho. Every
promotion with which Kalsor Wilhclm I.
honored him was accompanied with a splen
did gift In money ; moicovcr , Bismarck has
made many piolltnblo investments. Ho owns
largo gra/lng lands and beautiful farms ; ho
Is interested financially in several prosperous
distillei ies and paper mills , and ho is ono of
the owners of the largest wood sawing con
cern in Europe. His income from nil sources
must bo enormous. Ho is today n much
i Ichor man than the German cmpeior in
fact , William II is comparatively poor. His
grandfather was by no means wealthy ; ho
was generous and ho cared for money only ns
u means of gratifying his inclination. His
grandson appears to have Inherited many of
the old gentleman's characteristics. But the
gieatest honor the young kaiser conferred
upon Bismarck was that accorded when ho
guvo Bismarck a portrait of himself ; this is
regarded In Germany ns the highest dis
tinction which a sovereign can confer upon u
subject.

The greatest operation by brigands lately
has been achieved by a Tonquicso band near
Haiphong. Two French gentlemen , M.
Koquo and M. Costa , had been captured by a
chief , Lun-Ky , and wcro permitted to cheese
between having their heads cut off nnd pay
ing a sum as ransom. The French president
tit Dong-trien nt the entreaty of the prison
ers , advanced to the brigand's stronghold
with u escort of marines carrying the ransom.
When they had reached the camp Lun-Ky re
quested the president to como up to tno fort
with only a priest , who acted us Interpreter ,
Und men sufficient to carry the ransom. That
was in live chests , nnd consisted of 10,000
in money , 100 pieces of silk aud 13 watches.
The brigands first objected to the quality of
the silk , but , on being assured that it was
the best that could ho procured at Haiphong
at such short notice , allowed it to pass. The
captives wcro then released and the brigands
retired. Lun-Ky is described as being only
'M years pf age , and to have behaved with
great insolence to the French president.
While the ransom was being examined the
president was surrounded by 400 brigands ,
kneeling , w ith their rifles ready to llro at
the least signal.

Hcvo that so beautiful n city should exist

The members of the Ilellef and Aid society

when they were informed that the $17.85

city , was the receipts of u Sunday entertain
ment. A meeting was held specially by the
members yesterday to determine what they
should do about the matter , and it was unani
mously voted to leturn the money to Mr.
Lawler , and the treasurer was so instructed
to do. Ono of the members , in speaking of
the matter afterwards , said : "It is better
for the poor to starve and the sick to die than
to receive money gained.In such au unholy
manner. "
NOT X I.OVU FFAST.
A person who was present at the conven
tion held Wednesday afternoon and evening
at the cull of o\-Govornor Butler as the pee
ple's champion , J. H. Ciiuldoclc , secretary of
the state assembly of the Knights of Labor ,
nnd O. E. Hall of the grange , pronounced the
event us u icgulur "monkey uud parrot uf-
fuir. "
"It appcara , " said ho , "us if this self-con
stituted committee , drafted a set of resolu
tions and came Into the meeting of about
eighty delegates and demanded their adop
tion. These resolutions culled for the organ
ization of a now political party. After this
was presented n minority resolution was p re
sented by Mr. Cameron opposing the creation
of a now party. This surprised the callers of
the convention.who stated that they weionot
prepared to act on it , as the other resolution
was unanimously passed by the committee. By
u cunningly laid scheme it had been decided
earlier in the session to delegate the discus
sion and settlement of all resolutions to n se
lect committee of live previously picked out
by Hall. As a result a hot discussion followed
niid Cameiou's resolution was denounced by
the democratic members ns being in favor of
republicanism. A , Craddock , seeing that the
scheme for which ho worked so hard was
about to fall , arose , and claiming to represent
the Knights of Labor and the workingmen of
Nolnaska , demanded In their name that the
lirst resolution bo passed. Ho declared that
lie was u stiito officer of the Knights of Labor
and spoke iv ith authority. Ho arraigned the
republican party as the cause of all the Ills to
which wo are heir. Ho charged it with de
feating the bill lor the adoption of the Aus
tralian systenl of balloting at the last legisla
ture.
"Councilman Joseph Burns arose at this
luncturo and said : 'Mr. Chairman , I too am a
ICnight of Labor , and us such and a working
man I wish to enter my protest against
the adoption of the resolution first intio-
duccd for two reasons :
" ' 1. Because it puj ports to bind the
Knights of Labor of this state to a sot of
resolutions gotten up without their knowl
edge or consent'
" "J. Because to no man have the laboring
nen ot Lincoln delegated the power to so
jind thorn. There uro 5,000 Inboi ing men in
Lincoln and 10,000 moro In Omaha , besides
the thousands of others in the state who have
10 knowlcdguof this convention , much less
nivo nn authorised delegate hcio , and you
certainly cannot and should not pass thla
resolution purporting to mislead them nnd
place them in u wrong light after election. '
"Craddoek jumped up at this juncture and
attempted to bridle Burns' toiiRtio by do-
louncing him as an interloper nnd not a dcle-
pito qualified to speak in the convention.
"Burns Inquired if therowas not an Invita
tion extended to all Knights of Labor to at-
send this convention , and Crnddock being
struck dumb for un answer , Burns took his
llenco for consent and claimed the privilege
o speak.
" 'Sit down I' came a chorus from demo
cratic throats. *
"But Bums did not sit down. Ho do-
nnndcd by wnat authorltj Crnddock and other
nombors of the order assumed the power and
ight to haul over thu laboring men of No-
nasku to homo now party without their
cnowledgo or consent.
" 'Am I hero as n state officer ! ' said Crad-
lock. , ,
" 'Do you ns such,1 asked Burns , 'charge
the republican purtv with the defeat of ttio
egislatlvo bill fuvoi ing the Australian system
ot balloting ! If jou do , you Btuto a false-
lood , us ttio democratic senator fiom Douglas
county formed n combine against It. '
"Tho democrats present rose to a man nnd
demanded that Bums bo suppressed , buttli.it
gentleman , In tha name of tuo thousands of
voikingmcn unrepresented demanded that
10 resolution ho passed endorsing something
.hoy had not seen.
"This Hklrmlnh wns the preliminary of a
mttlo that lusted until 1 o'clock , Tha ropub-
leans present saw the trap Into which they
vcro being led nnd were Indignant that they
