.1 QIT.STWX OF
A decision of the question regarding
the authority of the interstate commerce
commission to order a reduction of
transportation rates will boawnllcd with
great Interest The report of the com-
nlsalon sent to the semite in the early
mrtof last month , regarding rates on
oed products between the west and the
irlnulpal distribution centers of the east ,
, ho public has boon made familiar
with. The commission expressed the
opinion that any rate or greater
. imrgo from the Missouri liver
.him seventeen cents to Chicago and
twelve cents to the Mississippi , cast side ,
was excessive , and that the rates should
bp so reduced and adjusted , and that a
reduction of two cents should bo made
from aH stations west of the Missouri
river In Nebraska and Kansas. This re
port was followed up by a notice from
.ho commission to a largo number of
railroad companies" its purpose to
nako an order huxcd on its findings , and
olTcrlng the companies an opportunity
to be heard and to present reasons why
such an order should not bo made. The
icaritig of the arguments was begun on
the eighth instant.
Mr. A. R "Walkor , formerly a incin-
jcr of the national commission , and now
chairman of that almost forgotten organ
ization , the InloHtato Commerce Hall
way association , appeared us the ropro-
jonhitlvoof seine twenty-live railroad
companies and &ubmitted an elaborate
printed response , in the nature of an ar
gument , as a reply to the notice issued
jy the commission. This contained a
motion to dismiss the pending proceed
ings for want of jurisdiction. It
was urged that if the conclusions
of the commission were carried into
ollcct the results would very largely re
duce tha earnings of railroad companies
engaged in the transportation of grain.
Taken together , the argument of Mr.
Walker declared the result would bo
simply enormous , and it was held that
tlio proposed order in every part relates
to the rights of cltl/.ens. "It should bo
unnecessary to call attention to the fact , "
siyH : the argument of Mr. Walker , "that
under our constitution no citi/.on can bo
deprived of property without duo process
of law. " Regarding the status of the
commission , Mr. Willkor contended thai
It is somewhat anomalous and uncertain.
Many of its acts are quasi judicial , al
though in some respects the nature of Us
functions is purely administrative. lie
held that no order should bo made by
the commission upon the present record
for the reason that a proceeding in
tended to result in the announcement of
an order by the commission must bo
based , on its inception , either upon a
complaint instituted by seine
known and reputable person , or
upon a determination of the
commission itself to investigate the matter -
tor in question , and that the curriers in
terested must bo distinctly apprised of
the complaint in advance of the investi
gation and notilicd to miiko answer and
bo heard thereon.
A similar line of argument , demurring
to the jurribdiction of the commission in
the present proceedings , was submitted
by other attorneys for the railroads. The
other bide was presented by several at
torneys , among them G. M. Lumbortson ,
esq. , of Nebraska , who appeared at the
request of Governor Thaycr and en be
half of the Fanners' Alliance of this
stale. The argument of Mr.'Lambert-
son is paid to have made ho strong and
favorable an impression that ho was re
quested to have it printed- for distribu
tion. We have heretofore spoken of the
importance of the issue thus made re
garding the jurisdiction of the inter
state commerce commission , but it is to
bo observed that the position of the
railroads , so far as they are
represented in the argument ol
Mr. Walker , is not so extreme
as was threat oned when it was first pro
posed to demur to tho'jurisdiction of the
commission. The impression then con
voyed was that it was the intention to
deny the authority of the commission
under any circumstances to order a re
duction of rates. The decision of the
question now under consideration , al
though it refers only to the present pro
ceedings , will doubtless determine the
full Bcopo of the authority of the com
mission to regulate transportation rates
and the conditions under which it may
do so. _
WrBnAMTIOiY.il. SlLVKIt COKFEKKNCE
The joint resolution introduced in the
United States senate by Mr. Teller
looking to an International conference
to adopt a common ratio between goli
and silver for the purpose of establish
ing the international use of bimetallic
money and securing n llxlty of relative
value between those metals , follows ap
propriately the action of the senate in
passing the conference silver bill. It Is
moro than probable that the proposed
resolution will bo adopted by congress ,
as it is not apparent that any good rea
sons exist for opposition to it. It is well
Intended , whatever may bo thought o ]
the chances of It nceompllshlngany prac
tical result. It is doubtless proper that
a movement for the purpo- eonlorn-
plated in the resolution should originate
with this country. At any rate it ia uot
likely to start with any other.
{ Ixporionco with International coafor-
oiR'cs for the purpose of adopting a
common ratio between gold and
silver and establishing blmot-
ullsm does not encourage
the hope that anything practical will
come of another olTort In this direction.
Saventl such conferences have been hold
none of which did anything to advance
the cause of blmotallsm. The llrst of
those , convened in Paris in 1807 , recom-
me'nded the establishment of the single
btandnrd of gold , with silver as a sub
sidiary minor coin. The conferences ol
1873 and 18S1 were bomowhnt loss un-
fuvorablo to the cause of silver. Thob
ou'oct was to bring to the attantloa of
the European nations that had partially
demonetized silver the fact thut it was
for their interest to join us in nn attempt
to ro-ostnbUsli the legal'equality of the
metals. It the pjoplo in ouoh nation ol
Europe hud b3on alive to thalr own In
terests the whole matter would have
boon settled within a short tlmo after
187H. But neither of the two leading
nations , England and Garmany , was
then ready to do her share. The con
ference of 1878 operated , however , to
call a halt la Germany's demonetization
and the Gorman government , having
refused our invitation in 1878 ,
uont delegates to Paris in 1881. She , ns
well as Kngland , was then BUfllclently
alive to the situation to offer substantial
aid in the work-of joint interest. Un-
ucstlonnbly the work of education has
ilnco proceeded bravely in Eng-
and and Germany. The report two
years ngo of the British royal com-
nisslon on gold and silver showed that
mbllc opinion was was growing steadily
nero favorable to sliver. Tlio silver
ncn have now n hundred votes in the
louse of commons , a small minority , it
s true , but still n largo gain over a few
cars ngo , two members of the cabinet
ire arrayed on tliolr side , and the rising
onclors of economic thought In England
ustaln their cause. In other European
tales the interest in sliver is maln-
alned.
These facts are certainly not without
ncourngemont , but they are the result
f years of agitation , and they sug
gest that it requires u prolonged
ffort to induce nations to adopt
a new monetary policy. Still
ho situation Is undoubtedly clearer and
nero promising than nt any previous
imo in the hint dozen years , and our
low silver policy may have a very great
nlluonco in stimulating the growth of
mbllc opinion in Europe in favor of
lilvor. At any rate the uroposal of an
ntornational conference for tlio purpose
ndicatcd in the senate resolution up-
> oars timely and there is at least a posl-
jllity that it may have benulleial re
sults ,
BROATCH displays a remarkable
amount of nerve in declaring that ho is
not a vote eorrunlor , in face of the fact
hat his pals , noting under his instrue-
Ions , have distributed boodle among the
warding houses of every ward. Kolls
of from ten to ono hundred dollars have
jocn scattered with a lavish handtho only
restriction being that every vote shall
> o secured regardless of expense. "What
arrant hypocrisy to Haunt in the face ol
the people of Omaha , who are thor

The miles 'of decaying blocks nv& the

regardless of first cost , Is the cheapest in

tical unanimity , petitioned for substan
tial material.
THE pot poodle of Billy Broatch responds

fanity are mixed in equal proportions.

OTIIEU LAXDS THAT OUUS.
There are strong symptoms of impending
disturbance In Eastern Europe , It appears
tlmt Kussln is preparing to semi her Bluck
Sea fleet into Turkish waters for the purpose
of enforcing her recent Ccmand for the im
mediate settlement cither In cash or in terri
tory of tlio 187" wur Indemnity , amounting to
over 5150,000 , which remains still due her l > y
the sublime porto. Moreover , the czar has
within the past thrco months presented five
batteries of Krupp guns and 100,000 repeatIng -
Ing rifles to Scrvla ; and finding that the Bel
grade regency was debarred by the state of
its finances from complying with Ills demand
for the call to arms of the national militia ,
ho persuaded the Ilosklcr sjndlcato to issue
n Servian loan of $10,000,000 iu its favor.
Mysterious munmuvers are also reported to
bo taking place on the lower Danube by the
largo flotilla of steamers belonging to the St.
Petersburg Gargarin navigation company ,
which , although founded ostensibly for com
mercial purposes , continues a dependency
*
of the imperial navy. Uor is it
possible to regard with indifference
the repo.rts of serious affrays and sanguinary
conflicts at ISrzcroum between the Armenian
and the Mu.tsclmnn inhabltunts. During the
last few yours moro than -10,000 Mahometans
from the Caucasus , who have served their
tlmo in the Uusslan army and therefore still
to the czar's forces have
belong reserve , set
tled around Erzcroum and in other portions
of Armenia near the Russian frontier. Being
followers of tlio prophet , it was impossible
for the sultan to exclude them from Ottoman
territory. These unwelcome guests have
been ongiijjed In frequent quarrels with the
agricultural Christian population among
whom tUoy dwell. The Turkish troops inva
riably take p.irt with their fellow-believers
against tlio Christians , and the result is thai
constant appeals are addressed by the
wretched Armenians to tlio great powers o
Europe for protection against Mussulman
cruelty and oppression. Kussla , which claims
a sort of spiritual protectorate over the Mil
tan's Christian subjects , is now threatening
once more to intervene la their behalf as she
did under similar circumstances in Hulguria
in the war of 1S77.

On the lost dnrof Juno the government of
; ho Netherlands Introduced in parliament n
bill proposing general conscription , theologi
cal students and ecclesiastics nlono to bo
exempt from it , for eight yours for the army
and six yoara for the navy , to lie followed by
Ivo years in the landwehr. The nrmy war
rooting Is to bo thus raised to 11(5,000 ( men ;
that of the navy proportionately. In 1833 the
[ lopulatton of the Netherlands was less thnn
Tour million live hundred thousand , and It is
[ > robably not much larger than that at present.
This Includes , of course , men , women and
children , the psrfect nnd defective classes ,
and of the able bodied men 110,000 are to bo
forced into the nrmy on a war
Tootiiig. Other thousands are to
bo similarly forced into the navy.
How creat the proposed increase Is to bo is
shown by the present strength of the army on
a war footing. It consists of 00,012 infantry ,
J.OIO cavalry , 1,5 > 0 engineers , 13,010 artillery
nnd C00 [ mounted police , In all about 53,000
men , Including ofliccrs and special ser
vices. The proposed increase is over 100
percent. The great armaments of Hiisaln ,
France , Germany , Austria nnd Italy do not
so strongly suggest the terrible tyranny of
the existing political conditions of Europe ,
which permit the continuance of peace only
by a show of war , as does this example of a
little nation of much less than 5,000,000 souls ,
and that Is not actually involved with iU
great neighbors in International disputes ,
being compelled to maintain on a war fooling
nn army nearly four times ns largo as that of
tlio United States , with its population of 05-
000,000 and of practically unlimited wealth.

The homo politics of Italy are peculiar just
now , nnd the overthrow of the present gov
ernment of Crixpl , or oven its continuance in
power , might hasten a rupture lu France.
' 1'ho prime minister Is in a quarrel with some
of his- former friends of the radical party ,
who lose no opportunity of taunting him with
having become the Bismarck of Italy , rather
than its Gladstone. He has a strong majority
in the house , but not In the semite , which not
long since voted against him on nn Important
question ; and in the new election which will
soon occur his friends may not ho able to
carry the country iu his support. The party
most likely to succeed against him , If any
does , will bo the extreme liberals , uniting
with conservatives who oppose the minister
on other-grounds ; nnd there are some Indica
tions , that In anticipation of this , Crispi may
retire from the ministry , which ho told the
house a few weeks ago was a ' 'post of mar
tyrdom quite as .much as of duty. " Crispi
has passed for au enemy of France , chiefly
because ho formed the triple alliance , but
ono of the radical leaders , in a recent oration
commemorating Benedetto Calroll , the last of
a family of brothers who mostly died lighting
for Italian liberty , used such language about
Tunis that the French expect to find tbat
party , if it comes into power , no more friendly
to Franco than Crispi has been. In fact ,
however , the internal condition of Franco ,
makes all experienced statesmen doslro peace
and greatly dread war. Italy , though mak
ing great progress since 18iO ( , has'still a largo
population In cxtrqmo poverty , and of late , in
some provinces , , Indlnpd to bo disorderly.
Since tlu > chief Justice of Samoa , under the
peculiar treaty made at Berlin , is to go as fur
toward becoming the dictator of tbat archipelago
pelage as a judicial ofllcer could well go , the
appointment of a Swede to the oftleo Is prob
ably o wise , step. Thoi treaty declared tbat if
the thrco signatory powers should fail to
agree in nominatinga chief justice , bo should
bo named by the king of Norway and
Sweden. Considering how much this func
tion has to do , It is not surprising that the
treaty alternative thus mentioned has b en
actually adopted. In case of dispute as to
who is kiug of Samoa ho Is to
decide ; In case of "any difference" be
tween the treaty powers ho is to be the
arbiter and to settle it ; ho is to recommend to
the Samoan government any law ho may
think proper for preserving order and collect
ing taxes outside the municipal district ; ho
decides all suits concerning real estate , all
civil 'suits of nny kind between natives nnd
foreigners , and various criminal suits. All
this nnd moro lie is to do for $ ' ) ,000 a year ,
payable the flrst year in equal shares by the
three signatory powers , and afterward from
the revenues set aside for the Samoan govern
ment. .Although bis salary is the first lien on
these revenues , yet to remove any lingering
doubt in the chief justice's mind the three
powers agree to share lu making upanydo-
llclency.Vo shall .soon see how this rather
novel device In governmental machinery will
work in Apia.
The motto of Dr. Nanson , who next year is
to take a Journey to the north polo , is "For
ward I To victory or dotitht" It is a most
appropriate motto for his enterprise , for if ho
( jets into the unknown area far north of the
New Siberian islands , ho must work out his
own salvation or perish. It Is quite certain
that no government or private enterprise
would imperil the lives of scores of men in
the forlorn hope of carrying succor to Kan-
sen's handful of followers if they nro swal
lowed up in the unknown realms of the ice
king. All the money Nansen needs has no\\
been provided , and if ho lives his little 170-
ton vessel will enter Bourinc Sea hi Juno
next year. Ho hopas to take his plunge into
the Ice north of the Now Siberian islands in
September , and then the currents will re
licvo him of all further responsibility as a
navigator. He mart , go where ho U taken.
The plausibility wltt which ho 1ms urged his
theory that the Icqllrlft will carry him across
the pole , and the fact that some Arctic experts -
ports think hU tucQvy Is reasonable , cxplali
the important fueUbat he has Induced a gov
ernment to supply'ijioit ' of tlio money ho
needs. This is somewhat ronrirkublo , us ex

Thrco things ought to tlud a pluco in every
American homo : Tlio sacred Scriptures , a
good dally newspaper and n thoroughly reli
able encyclopedia. The drat wo oroqulto
sure every family In which Tin : REI : Is tnircn
already en Joys ; the second It has been the
business of our lives to furnish ; the third \\o
place nt the dlspasnl of our readers from thli
moment. Eight cents n dny , with nn addi
tional fraction of n cent too small to bo easily
stateable , will hereafter cnno lo any citizen to
secure the dally and Sunday edition of this
paper for an entire year delivered at his real *
deuce , and In addition incomplete sot of the
Americanized Encyclopedia llritannica ,
which , after a careful examination , wo confi
dently bollovo to bo the raojt complete , relia
ble and altogether host work of Its kind ex
tant todny. This is nnothor Illustration of
the motto tlmt lies nt the bnso of American
institutions ! In union there is strength.
\Vo \ have simply organized the rend *
era of Tim Bui ! Into a club of
encyclopaedia buyers and obtained from
the publishers the concessions which so vast
nn organization has the legitimate right to
demand. Our reward will come in an In
creased circulation , which , again , will prob-
nbly enable n.s to secure similar advantages
for our subscribers in some other direction.
This Is as It should bo ; the publisher and
readers of a great newspaper should work
together for mutual advantage.
The work which wo bave thus secured for
our readers Is neither a msro reprint of a for
eign publication nor a baity compilation
Issued under a "catchy" title. Ills really a
special edition of tluit worlil famous work ,
the Encyclopaedia Drltaniioatprepared ! by a
stall of American scholars witli as 3clal view
to the ucediTof American homes. Not a sub
ject treated in the original "Biitamilc.V bus
been omitted ; not n word hns been left out
that by any possibility could interest an
American reader , nnd a vast amount of new
matter the wnut of which deprived the Eng
lish work of half Its iisofulncos has been
nddoJ. The title accurately expresses tlio
scu > o ana plan of the book. It is the Ency
clopaedia Iiritamiic.1 Americanized.
What the publishers have done is to ttiko
the Encyclopedia Britannica to picce.s and
rebuilt it with amendments and improve
ments. The latest or ninth edition of the or
iginal work wns compiled some fifteen yeara
ngo ; the American editors have revised it to
the present year. The original work was
crowded with minute and exhaustive de
scriptions of English towns , cities , counties ,
boroughs , minor institutions and other mat
ters of peculiarlntorest to Englishmen and to
Englishmen alone , while American subjects
were treated with- the same brevity as
French or Gorman. The American editors
have reversed this method , condensed the
articles on distinctively British subjects
within reasonable limits , uad utilized the
spnco thus gained for exhaustive dis
cussion of purely' American topics.
The original work excluded from
Its plan nil mention of. individuals ,
however famous , who were allvo at the tlmo
of Its compilation ; it says not u word of moro
than half the men whoso nnmos nro written
on the pages of modern history no word of
Grant or Sheridan , or Sherman , of Harriet
BeechorStovvo , Julia "Ward IIowo , or Eliza
beth Stuart 1'holpj , of Cleveland , Harrison
or Blainc , or Parnell , Salisbury or Bismarck.
This woful UHHUS , too , has been supplied In
the Americanized edition. A scries of 3,000
biographies , each brought down to the pres
ent year , enables the reader to leani at a
glance , the life story of every noted
Individual of the prcscilt generation.
To all' this odd a complete series
of maps and a number of well executed
engravings Illustrative of the text , and the
Americanized Encyclopedia Britannica Is before
fore you \ork inwhoso introduction to
our readers wo fool a not unwarrantable
pride.
