In some towns of the state , notably
Boatrho nnil Crete , the bualncss raon
hn\o entered nctUoly Into the campaign
against prohibition. By organization
and by the exercise of their personal
Influence they are doing excellent work
in Impressing upon public nttenlion the
piiietleil fncts vhtch demonstrate the
great injury to the prosperity and. pro-
gicaa of Kobraska that would result
from the application here of the policy
of prohibition. Wo uro credibly In
formed that many business men In the
towns named , and elsewhere , v\io \ have
hitherto favored prohibition , arc now'
among tno most active in opposing it.
A careful study of the debates on this
questlonhas convinced them , ns practi
cal man , thut they can expect nothing
from prohibition but disaster to
their material interests , with , the
oquiil certainty that the policy
would prove to bo ns great a
f nil uro hero , whciovor not supported by
public Miitimont , as It is comlusnoly
shown to bo in Kansas und lo vn. They
realUo thut it would bilng about nn
enormous aggregate decline in propcity
values , that Itould produce general
business stagnation , that it would check
the growth of population , and that in
every dhoctlon touching the material
welfare of the state its olTout would be
most damaging' . This has boon the un-
questioniblooxpeiioncoor allstates that
have oq > oriinontcd with prohibition , and
there Is no reason lo suppose that it
would not boropoited In Nebraska. It
is already c donlthat it nould bo , for
the appiohension ot the possible success
of the piohibltoryamcndment iscaublng
a \ast amount of capital to bo withhold
from investment , has curtailed
business in almost oery depart
ment of enterprise , and is keeping
people out of the state. If these things
are taking place now , simply from n fear
that prohibition may bo successful , what
is reasonably to bo expected If that
policy should bo ictoilous ? "Why , that
the idle capital awaiting the resulc
would seek investment clsowhcio , that
all business operations would bo further
restricted , and that thousands of our
people would go to other states. No
man who gi\os nny weight to the argu
ment of facts and experience can doubt
thcso would bo the consequences of pio-
hibllionln Nebraska.
The business mon of every city and
town in the state should see the 1m-
poitancoof concentrating' theireuoigy
undiniluonco to avert this threatened
danger. They should organiro clubs
where this question could bo fre
quently discussed and \vhich would
bo centers of Information and in-
Huenco. An irnmonso Bor\lco
to the cause of anti-prohibition can bo
done in this way , vastly moio than It is
possible to accomplish by individual
effort. The next four weeks ought to
witness a great increase in the \lgor of
the campaign against prohibition , and
especially is it incumbent upon business
men every where who bolio\o this policy
would bo calamitous to the material in-
toiests of the stale to throw the weight
ot their influence against it. Thfs they
can most effectively do by organisation.
THE V/020K1' LY IDAHO
The republican \ictory in Idaho wai
not unexpected , though the majoiity In
dicated by the latest returns is some
what larger than was looked for. There
was no good reason why the democrats
should have entertained any hope of
carrying the now state , but nevoi theless
they did have such a hope and mndo a
very vigorous fight , with the result of
showing moro strength than the repub
lic ms believed they would. The details
of the contest yet to ho obtained will
perhaps show to vlrat extent the Mor
mon vote figured In the election , and how
it was cast , hut the inference is that it
was not largo and that the republicans
gotns much benefit from itns the demo
crats. This element in Idaho appears
not to have been well pleased -with the
democracy , and since it could not con
sistently support the republican party
the conclusion must bo that very few
Mormons voted.
'lire contest for the United Stutos son-
atorahip was instrumental in giving
vigor i.nd interest to tlio republican'
campaign , and it Is likely to continue to
keep upali\cly commotion in Uro parly
until a selection is made. Delegate
Dubois and Governor Shoup are caridr-
datcs , hut both are from the southern
part of the state , while the party is
plcdcedto elect ono senator from the
pan-handle , or northern Idaho The
candidate from that section is Judge
Clagott. All three stumped tire stuto ,
and \ \ hllo each \\as re illy laboring1 In
the Interest of his senatorial ambition ,
thoolTectof their combined efforts -was
very good for the party.
Thus the two states admitted into the
union Ly the present congress have
shown their gratitude by casting their
vote for the republican paity , and vlll
incroa&o tire republican majority in the
national senate by four and in the
house of i-oproscntativos Ly t\vo. The
example of these slates may properly bo
commended to the emulation of all the
other new common wealths whoso ad
mission Into the union was duo to the
favor of the republican party. There Is
doubt as to only ono ot these , Montana ,
which really ought to bo as safely re
publican ns any of the others if political
gratitude had any weight. However ,
the republicans have moro than a fight
ing chance in that Btato. There are no
moro state elections to bo held until N6-
vombor 4 , and the record thus far made
Is altogether encouraging toropubllcans.

At a low estimate fifty thousand tons
of hard coal are consumed annually In
Onraluu The present price is nine dol-
laisn ton , but the average cost per ton
during winter is fully ton dollars , mak
ing an outlay of nearly half u million
dollars n year for hard coul. If wo add
to these figures the amount of soft coal
consumed for heating , Idtchon and
power purposes , the total outlay for
fuel In this city oxceoda two million dollars
lars annually.
Hard coal is essentially the fuel of the
houro. Its slow burning qualities irnd
cleanliness nrako It n winter necessity.
Yet tlio manner in which the product Is
manipulated by dealer * , commission ron
and railroads , the prlco places itboyond
the roach ot thousands of people. It is
a luxury which hundreds of people can
enjoy but sparingly in this city , and
hundreds cannot afford.
From the moment it leaves the
mhro until , it is delivered to
the consumer , it is controlled
by combinations. Competition is do-
stroked. The average consumer In the
west could not buy it at the mines. It
must pass through the channels of the
various combines , each of which derives
a profit , while railroad rates nro so ar
ranged as to pro\cnt consumers from
dealing with jobbers at distant points.
Between the railroads and the com
bines , consumers nro compelled to pay
excessive prices. The open rate for
cat * load lots from Chicago to
the Missouri river is three dollars
lars per ton. The quoted prlco
In Chicago is five dollars per ton. Tlf ty
cents per ton is charged for drayage in
this city , making the apparent cost of n
ton of hard coal in Omaha eight dollars
and a half. But the cost Is far less , as
is shown by tire fact thut the local deal
ers offered to furnish the city and county
with anthracite at a fraction less than
olglrt dollars per ton. If the dealers can
furnish the city and county -with coal at
that price , it is evident the average con
sumer pajs ono dollar per ton moro than
a fair profit on the business.
Coal is a staple article. No commod
ity transported by the railroads in such
vast quantities offers less risk. Despite
the facilities for loadingmoving und un
loading at destination , the rate from
Chicago to the Missouri river is double
that char-cod fiom the urines to Chicago ,
a greater distance. To the dealers in
Oinnha there is no risk. Huslnessbolng
done of a cash basis , there nro no bad
debts to collect from the paying pur
chaser. The conclusion is Inevitable
that a three-dollar freight rale , gauged
by cost on service and risk , isurrjust and
exorbitant , and the local retail price ex
cessive and unwarranted.
KANSAS Cnr appealed to the rail-
roadsfor reduced coal ratosnnd the Alton
promptly responded with a cut of fifty
per cent. This example of corporation
foresight is commended to the Oimrha-
Chicago roads as ono they cannot
emulate too soon.
IN ; the history of Omaha there is but
ono Instance of reduced transportation
rates on coil from which consumers re
ceived a hone fit. The time is ripe for
another reduction of the exorbitant tolls
on this great staple.

Tor tuooilRlnor the recent revolt lu the
canton of Tlclnu , Switzerland , wo must go
back tolSTS , when the conservatives trained

having obtained a majority of 0,000 , at the
ballot box. This preponderance , which In
vlovvof thosmill population of tbo canton
was very marked , -would Invo assured to thu
conservatives n longtcnuroof power hid they
pursued a moderate course They proceeded ,
however , to net upon the doctrine that to the
victors belong tbo spoils a doctrine which
ha * seldom been adopted hy the Swiss , cither
in the federal or cantonal administration. Not
only did they thrust out of otllco every radical
who was removable , hut In some Instances
they seem to have infringed rlgbts guaran
teed by the federal constitution , for en nppcil
to the federal tribunal the canton was com
pelled to pay an Indemnity of SV0,000 ! , to cer
tain extruded cfllcoholdors. The rail icals had
other and graver causes of comphlrit. Sorno
members of their party vvoio shot In an
afti ly at Btabblo , nnd It vvas asserted nnd
widely believed that tbo assassins wcro nc-
quitted because they wore partisans of the
conservative govoinmorit. Then , although
the Ucasuror of tbo curton proved a defaulter
and lost5175,000 of the cantonal funds In
speculation , the conservative authorities
nude strenuous efforts to shield him from
punishment. What most contributed , hoiv-
over , to weaken tbo conservatives was their
abolition of trial by Jury. Perceiving that
their majority was in danger of extinction ,
the conservative * In 1S31 revised
the contonal constitution of TIcino ,
abolishing the thirty-eight electoral di
visions which had pievlously existed , andsub-
stltutmg twcnty-oiio ne\v divisions , so
adroitly tterrjinindcred that nt the last elec
tion 12,000 conservatives elected soventy-
seven members and 1.2,100 , radical * only thirty-
live members of the cantonal legislature. The
radicals thereupon petitioned tbo cantonal
legislature to permit n so called referendum ,
that Is to say , an nppeal to tbo people , who
should bo called upon to say by their votes
whether tire former thirtj-cight electoral di
visions should not bo restored. 'Ibis request
was icfused. In accordance with constitu
tional forms the radicals ought then to have
addressed the sntno demand to the federal
council , bjt tbis they deemed it useless to do ,
because that body , which ondrivois to ob
serve neutrality between conservatives and
radicals , has iepcn.tc.lly avoided acting upon
similar petitions. The radicals preferred tbo
rougtr icmcJyof a revolution.
In spite of the wide belief in regard to the
value ot Equator-ill Afilca to Europe in
powers , theroaro public mon in Great Brit
ain who do not look upon England's asquisi-
tions with any groat' degrco of satisfaction ,
and who , In fact , maintain that they are not
worth havlrifj. Sir 'John ' Pope Hennessey ,
who was nt ono tltno govcrnor-ln-chlef of the
"West .Africa settlements , has frathoioJl a
formidable array of facts la rcfcrouco to the
slow progress which chartered companies
have made la promoting cultivation
and advancing civilization , and to
the unsuitablens3 of the central
plateau of Africa to European
cultivators , cither as overseers orv orlrinon.
Many of ttroso statements are tikcn fiom the
best authorities on tbo subject , including
oven Mr. Stanley ; and when collated they
certainly show lh.it there has boon much ox-
apgeration in the talk about commercial
and colonial advantages. It is held by sorao
of these pablic mon that England's policy as
far as Coiitr.il Africa Is concernol should ba
a policy of masterly inactivity ; that , having
secured sphere" ) of Influence , she should lot
her competitor * convert their paper sphcios
into pajliiff dominions , wait till she could
profit by the result of their experience , and
turn her attention In the meantime to the
seaboard and not to the Interior. There can
bo no doubt that the possession of Delagoa
bay would bo worth rnuclr to England The
existence of the South African republic is nn
obstacle to the development of England's
South African possessions ; but the British
element in tbo Transvaal Is beginning to so-
euro a preponderance not only in wealth and
