poliijy for establishing trailo reciprocity
li.-twcen llio ITnltudHtnt" ! * and lli ether
countrlos of thh hcmi jitiern , The plan
of Mr. lluiino. Is tlio very film-
plo ono " of granting commer
cial consideration only to tlio o
countries whMi will give us conijien-
sntory concos lens , This appears IMI-
tlroly fair , and It onnol bo questioned
that ho prctjonta his u 3 in u way that
very plausihlo. Thus In the case
of Cuba sind Porto Uieo , from which this
country obtains about ono-hnlf of Itsfitip-
ply of suffar , ho would i-ctuso to admit
this sufftirto cur nuirknts free tmlessour
products were admitted frco to
these AVost India islands , and
ho would apply this policy
generally to .American countrlos. Mi * ,
lllaino thinks u serious liiiHtiiko wits
nmdoivhcn woroinovcd thfc duty on oof-
fco that wo did not exact n concession
from Hriizll for the free admission Into
Hint country of out- product * , and ho
doc.sn't want lo BOO thut mistalco re
peated. In view of the fact tluit the
United Slates Is bj'fiiitho largest put-
cluiscr of the imyar of Cubi : and 1'orto
lUco It is possible that the pollc.v pro
posed by Mr. lllaino could ba success
fully cnrriud out with'rospaut to trndo
with tho5o Islands , but there nro
obvious considerations which war
t-lint u doubt whether such
reciprocity is at present practicable.
The rovcnuo necessities of tliojc islands
make perhaps the strongest of those
considerations , and another of hardly
less force is the fact that as to many of
our iminurauttfcd ) products wo cannot
offer us favorable terms as the foreign
iniinufacturofd who now got nearly all
the tradu of those markets ,
In his letter to Senator Fryo Mr.
Dlaino says that while ho docs not doubt
that in many respects the pending
tarill bill is a just measure
and that most of its provisions tire In ac
cordance with a wise policy of protec
tion , yet "thcro is not a section or a line
in the whole bill that will open a murket
for another bushel of wheat or another
barrel of pork. " It Is in this respect
that the measure is particularly weak.
What the agricultural producers of this
country ' need is not duties upon pro
ducts of the farm , but markets for the
sale of their products. . As Mr.
Hlaino correctly states , our for
eign market for breadstulTs Is
gi owing narrower. The competition of
India and Russia In the European mar
kets is every year increasing , so that vo
nro gradually losing ground in the old
world. The time has como when wo
must seclv an outlet for our broadstulTs
in the countries south of us. The theory
upon which Mr. McKliiluy framed his
tariff bill is that wo do not need to
trouble ourselves about any other mar
ket than our own. I3uild up the homo
market , was the argument of McKlnloy ,
and American farmers will not find
it necessary to look abroad for
buyers of tholr products. This sort of
talk may sound patriotic , but the intelli
gent farmer knows it is not practical. It
Is asorioua condition that confront him ,
the pressure and severity of which sire
not alleviated by the theories of such
protectionists as Mr. MeKinloy , however
plausibly presented. Whether the pol
icy proposed by Mr , IJlalnowould ac
complish all that is claimed -for It miiy
bo doubted , but His unquestionably supe
rior lo tlio policy which the secretary of
state declares it would bo a grave error
to adopt ,
SENATE DHnA.TK.
The several conferences of republican
senators to consider the question of
adopting a. rule limiting debate In the
senate indicate a determined purpose
among these who favor the innovation
to hivvo such a rule adopted , if possible.
But the republican , senators are not unan
imous In support of the proposition.
Several of them , among whom is Mr.
Edmunds , liavo thus far vigorously op
posed imy change from the timo-
honorcd practice of the senate of
allowing unlimited debate. These
senators insist that there should bo ono
body in which legislators should bo al
lowed absolute freedom of discussion ,
that the maintenance of this privilege
in the senate since the organization of
the government has never worked In
jury toanylntorcst , and that it is a wise
and proper practice which ought to bo
continued.
On the ether hand it is contended that
the right of unrestricted debate may bo
abused to defeat the will of
tlio majority ; that in - its exor
cise u minority , however small , if it have
the physical endurance , may "talk to
death" any measure proposed by the
majority , and that it is a potential
moans of obstructing and retarding busi
ness. Another argument is that with
the present largo membership of the
semite It is unreasonable to continue a
practice which may have been entirely
unobjectionable when the senate was
a small body. Besides , tlio character
of the senate 1ms undergone
u , change. Formerly senators wore
as a rule content with a , reasonable dis-
cusslon of questions , but of hvto years
the lillbustorLn ? spirit has entered the
upper housa gnil threatens to bo as ob
stinate and mischievous thcro as it hud
boon until the present session in the
lower branch of congress. It Is this
menace which suggested the adoption of
u rule limiting debate in thcHonato.
The most important consideration In
volved In the question so for as the party
in control of the bemito is concerned is
ono of policy. Is it judicious to make
the proposed departure under existing
circumstances , when It may bo con
strued as a proceeding- intended solely
to servo ix.partlsan purpose ? Iho gen
eral public tal < o very little interest in
the average senate delate and ordina
rily the great majority ol people would
not care whether discussion wore free or
restricted. They concern thoinsolvus
generally only with the votes.
Hut it iseasy to BOO that
under present circumstances it
would bo possible for the minority party
in congress touinko political capital out
of an innovation of this kind. Mean
while , however , it la pertinent to oak
how the majority hope to make the pro
posed chan o ? There bolng freedom of
tU'bntonndnn ' uiiffstt cloil right to fili
buster , obviously llio minority may
carry on nn cndloiH fight against the
proposed now rule , or nt any rate hoop
up the struggle as long nsonoof them
has the physical strength to ba in his
phico ' In the senate and talk. The ma
jority ' may safely count upon n long- and
miluou * task , even If unanimous , before
j't
they will Iw able toiulopt u rule limiting-
dcb.ite. The Indications , however , nro
that the attempt will be made , that be
ing i : understood to liuvo boon the decision"
of the last conference of republican sen
oa
ators.

The question has been asked wlmt
right has Mr. Gilbert to hold the olllco
of city gas Inspector , in view of the fact
that ho is a non-resldunt of Oinnhannd
is a citizen of Sarpy county. Tim Itais
can only utis ? cr this question by quoting
the charter provision relating to muni
cipal olllcew. Section 17 of thochiirter
re-ads us follows :
The mayor and council shall have power to
cro.ito any olllco or rmploy nuy nguntthoy
jnny dt'Oia necessary for the ovoriimuntand
beat interests of the city , anil to prescribe
and regulate the duties , powers and compen
sation of all onirerH , KgiMiU nml servants of
the city not hciviii provided for. But all
such njcnta , oflicor.i and servants , employed
or appointed under this net , so fur ns prac
ticable , must be qualified voter * of said city.
DTho only rational construction that
can ho placed upon this provision of the
charter is that every municipal olllfor ,
elective or appointive , must boa. resi
dent of the city and a qualified voter in
the city at the lime of his appointment ,
unless the position requires skill or pro
fessional experience which no citizen of
Omaha is known to possess. .
tn ether words , if nobody in Omaha
was qualllied to perform the du
ties of gas inspector , the
mayor and council would have the
right to appoint a non-resident
to the position. But when such non
resident is appointed ho would bo ex
pected to reside within the city limits of
Omtilnt , and qualify himself for citizen-
whip within six months after lie receives
his appointment.
Nobody will contend that Mr. Gilbert
was the only person in Omaha qualified
for Iho duties of yas inspector nt tlio
tjmo of his appointment. Ilonco it fol
lows that his appointment was in viola
tion of the charter. Assumlny that Gil
bert was Iho only man in Omahuqualllied
for the place , when ho was appointed ,
his failure to qualify as a voter by his
continued residence outside of Omaha
nnd outside of this county is a deliunco
of the law and makes it the duty ot the
mayor to supplant him with a qualified
elector of this city. 1'his is the plain
inton't of the charter under which the
mayor ntul council are managing mu
nicipal affairs.
TUB Indian la becoming- object of
prime interest to political parties in the
now states. Under "tho severally law
the Indian taking iv farm and hoeing
his own row becomes H citizen of the
United Stntos , with all the rights and
troubles which folio win its" wake. The
number entitled to vote at present is
comparatively light , but it must bo re-
mouibored that , the law lias not been in
operation many years. The reduction
of tlio Sioux rosarvatlon w.n the moans
of inducing- several hundred out of a
total of twenty-live thoiruntl In
dians in South Dakota to take
up farms. Others must follow
from iieeosalty , as it is tlio policy
of the government to compel thorn to
work by steadily reducing their rations.
It is neb likely , however , that there will
bo a radical change in the customs of the
tribe while Sitting Dull and other retired -
tired cut-throats ara a power In the
council of the tribes. Mig-hty few of
them will from choice exchange govern
ment rations for work with the privilege
of voting. But It is bound to'come , and
politicians nro already cultivating ac
quaintance with Lo for mutual advan
tage and profit. Judged by Nebraska's
experience with Indian voters , the
South Dakota contingent is not likely to
astonish the country by their zeal for an
honest ballot nn'l a fair count. The
strain will fall on the candidate's pock-
otbook.
THE order has gone forth among the
corporations to cut down expenses. Following
lowing- the example of the Union Pacific ,
wholesale discharges have been made by
the Chicago roads. The cause of this
sudden spasm of economy is given out to
bo reduced earnings , but it is a signill-
cant fact that the corporation gulllotiuo
falls on the poorly paid workingmen ,
while the high naluricd ofllcials escape.
Behind this pretentious show of "hard
times" lies a deep laid schema to hood
wink the public. It Is nothing less than
an oltort , by wholesale-discharges , to
check the ngitntlon for reduced
rates under federal and state laws. 'Hut
it will not work. During the month of
May , with cut throat wars and rates re
duced to bed rock , the corporations oper
ating between Chicago and the Missouri
river , showed an average increase over
the corresponding month last year , rang
ing from ten to sixteen per cent. When
the railroads exhibit such a remarkable
incroiibo during a strife conceded to have
been the most disastrous war in fifteen
years , it is ovido'nt that the present cur
tailing of expenses isa deliberate attempt
to manufacture public scntii'nent against
the order of the Interstate commerce
commission for reduced rates. It is tlio
old plea of poverty in a now aru.
IN the destruction of human life the
Minnesota tornado has no equal In the

"When the area of the country traversed

Tltn school elevens in Salt L.nko City
and Ogden resulted In a grand victory
for the friends ot .tlio frco school. The
fiI
liberals : swept CTurythlng , by minorities
larger 1 ; than In the February olrctlon.
The result forcibly confirms the decline
of Mormon puwpi" ' in the chief cities of
the territory. ( it deposes the church
from municipal control and places the
public | school system in the hands of Its
friends. Under Mormon rule the BO-
callud public schools were nothing more
Ct
than annexes to the church. The trus
tees were elected from districts , but
by 1 a species of gerryman
dering 1I that would send a
blush to Indiana , the Mormons suc
ceeded In shutting out their opponents
and managed thu schools so as to con
tribute to the growth of the church. As
a consequence , other denominations
were compelled to maintain schools.
Practically thcro was 110 system of pub ?
lie schools under Mormon rule. The
election of liberal trustees murks a nota
ble advance in the cause of education in
Uluh ns well as the steady divorcement

1S the church from the control and man
agement of temporal afTiilrs.
TIIK protest of the meeting of work-
ingmcn at ShelHeld , llngland , against
the proposed American tariff can only
bo regarded as a piece of impertinence.
It cannot bo doubted that the demonstra
tion was inspired by the cutlery manu
facturers of that city , but whether such
was the case or not it was a proceeding
tlmt is not likely to do them any good.
The proposed increase of the duties on
cutlery may bo regarded by a majority
of the American people as unwise , but
they will none the less resent this for
eign meddling with an affair wholly
their own.

The great debate on high license vs prohi
bition nt tlio Beatrice Chautaiuiuu on last Sat
urday and Holiday exceeded the expectation
of the most enthusiastic and sanguine. Thou
sands of people went to hear gifted and tal
ented men discuss the pro and con of this im
portant question and worn not disappointed
in the result , Some oC the ablest speeches
made in our st ate for years were delivered
there. The most notable feature the dcbto
was the number of facts bucked up by statis
tics taken from olllcial records that could not
L disproved that wore presented by Uoso-
water anil Webster. The prohibition advo
cates took the only cotirso left them , that of
uiMpuig anathemas and abuse upon the supporters
.
porters of high license. These gentlemen
should loura that a few facts and ligurcs
taken from reliable records are worth
more hi n debate of this kind than
nil the abuse and vituperation at tlio
command of even n Sam Small. Such
an argument as the prohibitionists endeav
ored to advance , may gala applause from
t these whom logic and reason will not reach ,
' unt nuy unprejudiced i mau or woman who
listened to that debate or will carefully road it
c.iu draw hut ono conclusion , and that U that
the prohibs were badly worsted" their own
ground and they did { not , with their impor
tant speakers , bring forth ono argument to
prove that tholr position ' .vas tenable.
When the growth and prosperity of high
license Nebraska was compa red with the ad
vancement of prohibition Kansas , Iowa ,
Maine , Vermont and Xow Hampshire by
ofllciiil records nnd Indisputable facts , Nc-
liraska was found to ho far in the lead , But
the worst black eye given the prohibi was
when it was proven without doubt that ac
cording to the population wo had in this state
n loss number of convicts la the penitentiary
nnd lunatics in the asylum than these states
w hero prohibition has been tided.
A HOME XISCISSSITV.
Luxuries become conveniences and con
veniences become necessaries as clvilivatlon
advances. Whoa the first cncyclorctlla was
published it was a luxury for the rich. The
original edition of the Urltaimica , prepared
with vast labor nud expense , was sold at $0 n
volume or $150 for the sot. Apploton's cost
Sl'JO , nud as a sot could not bo complete with
out tlio annuals to date , tlio expense was in a
few years greater than that of the Britamiica.
It was a heavy tnx on all except the very rich
but the incalculable usefulness to all literary
workers nnd others who desired available In
formation thut5l,000,000 has been sent out
of this country for the Brltannlcn.
Since the publication ol the Britamiica In
vestigations have discovered so many new
facts and changed old ones that it can no
longer bo trusted to contain n complete sum
mary of practical knowledge. In its original
form it was not enough for this country since
a great deal of its information consisted of
details ' about obscure British places and its
treatment of American topics was very
superficial.
No now compilation of a full encyclopaedic
nature has been made recently except that
which TUB BKI : has secured for its sub
scribers. The publishers of this American
ized Encyclopedia Brltannlca have preserved -
served all the valuable features of tno orig
inal , which -was unquestionably the great
est work of tlio kind over made , and have re
modeled it to suit the latest researches and
particularly to satisfy American buyers who
wish hut one encyclopedia.
An encyclopedia has become necessary In
all educated families. Thcro has been for
years a demand for a work which would sup
ply all that the IMtnnnica did , with addi
tions to date , at a price which would enable
fumlllo of moderate means to purchase ,
To use the Encyclopaedia Dritaunica as a
basis for aa improved and cheaper work Is
quite us honorable as to print and sell copies
of Dickens , Scott , Victor IIuco or Uuinas.
It is part of the world's stock of knowledge
open to the American public. Cooper , Longfellow -
follow and "Whlttler have boea reprinted lu
England inho same way.
The publishers of the Americanized Eiu-y-
clopajdiaUritannica hnvo employed the host
talent nnd the highest knowledge to edit ,
amend nnd nil out the work. To bring on
Instance homn It may lo stated that they re
quested , when the revision was lu progress ,
that THE Can designate the best authority In
Omaha to wrlto a history of the city , Other
cit'ca were looked after with the same care
und liberality ,
Soou after the announcement of the under
taking Tun BF.K investigated it thoroughly ,
nud decided that the wonc count bo made a
great boon to subscribers. Papers like the
Chicago Herald , St , Paul I'lonccr Press , San
Francisco Examiner and Denver Uepublicaa
were glad after the same examination to enter
Into na arrangement for exclusive control of
the work , The publishers admitted only the
leading and best paper in each city. Tin :
BIK , tlio leading paper of Omaha , controls
the work in Nebraska and western Iowa.
It can be obtained In that terri
tory only through THE Hun. After the t-nor-
mom vuluo of the Americanized Kncyelopuj-
diu Uritaunica became known there was a
rush of papers for the privilege. Hut only
the best were admitted and It is natural that
the Inferior ] iapcrs show their resentment by
Hading fault with the use of the Brltauulea's
material.
The copy for this addition was all made up
originally. Five volumes of the Aiaoriran
Ized are Issued and tlio other llvo will bo out
inside of four months.
