Till' LEGISLATIVE TtCKETS.
The county conventions of Uio ropub-
i'can nnd democratic parties have been
called , and within flvo clnya the candi
dates for the loglsVillvo and county
ofllccs will bo known , As usual , there
s n surplus of decayed politicians push-
ng themselves to the front nnd demand-
iig recognition. Lacking the vllnlqual-
fications for the positions to bo filled ,
hey are all the more determined , by
look or crook , to force themselves on
the people mid sink thonxsolvoa uud the
ticket.
Questions of paramount Importance to
, ho commercial , Industrial and proiluo-
ng clnssus of the state will como
up for solution in the next leglshi-
urc. Those include the readjust
ment of local rates of transporta
tion , reform of the revenue laws , so that
an honest assessment ol taxable property
shall ho made ; the enactment of \varo- -
louse lav , nsa preliminary to the esltib-
Ishmontof a permanent homo innrkofc
or grain ; protective measures against
usury ; election reform ; the abolition of
coolllces ; the passage of laws compoll-
ng state , county and municipal treas
urers to cover Into the treasury all
eesor Interest received for the use of
ho public funds , and retrenchment in
, ho expenses of the government ,
The successful solution ol these prob-
oins calls fora higher average typo of
ability than that possessed by former
eglslatures. A majority of both bodies
should bo men of commanding1 ability to
vhom the general welfare- the stale is
ibovc party advantage or personal gain ;
iicn who will devote their time and.
.alcnts to accomplishing1 "tho great
est good for the greatest number , " and
secure the enactment of measures that
vill accelerate the development of the
esourccs of the state and increase the
irospei-lty of the people.
Douglas county must take a loading
> art in procuring these essential ro-
orms. As the leading county of the
state it should set an example of patri
otic activity by sending to the legislature
oputablo representatives of its varied
ntercsts. The coming conventions have
i grave duty to perform. Tlio fact that
ho democrats have a meagre majority
n the county must not bo taken at a.
Iccnse to impose characterless schem
ers on the voters , nor can the republi
cans expect success unless they sit down
on tricksters and political tools and
lominato first class men. The inde
pendent vote controls tlio balance of
lower in the county , and should either
: onventlon abdicate its powers to the
ward roustabouts , its nominees are fore
doomed to defeat.
In view of the vital Issues involved it
jehooves the leading men of both parties
to take an active part In the primaries ,
; o cxoreiso their influence in the con
ventions and secure the nomination of
men wlio will reflect credit on Douglas
county and the state.
SAMPLES FKOM THE CENSUS.
The census bureau is giving out in
stallments of the returns at frequent in
tervals , grouping cities and towns of
various states in a way that does not
lack interest , if it lackssystem. . The
latest announcement covers a 6coro
of cities of the smaller clns3 in'
West Virginia , Indiana , Illinois ,
Texas , Nebraska and Wyoming. This
combination of widely separated com
munities furnishes an opportunity for
an interesting comparison of the gro\vth
of the various sections.
Each of the six states mentioned in
the list has been prosperous after its
own fashion in the past ten years. With
Wosc "Virginia it has been an awakening
to opportunities among which genera
tions have grown old nnd passed away.
With Indiana and Illinois it. has boon
the steady growth of old settled manu
facturing and agricultural communities.
With Nebraska. , Texas and Wyoming it
has been a story of rapid development in
new and untrodden lines , under the
given impulses that prevail in all now
countries. In all the states the growth
has been creditable , but the percentages
rise steadily all the way from the
Alleghanies to thn Rockies. It is the
pulse of the west that boats fastest.
The growth of the smaller cities and
towns ol Nebraska , ns far as announced ,
is entirely satisfying to state pride. It
ranges all the way from fifty to live hun
dred per cent , and shows n healthy
development which promises to go for
ward without a halt for years to come.
Nebraska lias yet a fjrcat deal of grow
ing to do in all directions before her
people begin to realize the limit ol the
possibilities that lie within her Boil ,
climate and extent of territory. But
the census indicates that she moves
with firm and hopeful stop in the right
direction. The flgurps show that Ne
braska and the wostnro at the front of
the procession.
FOIIEIQX
Tlio threats coming from Europe of a
policy ot commercial retaliation against
the United States , in order to express
the dissatisfaction of foreign govern
ments and people with the tariff policy
of this couatry , Is not likely to create
any alarm among those who will intel
ligently consider the subject. In the
first place , In order to make such n policy
at all effective , It would bo necessary for
the principal manufacturing nnd com
mercial nations .of Europe to unite in it ,
and this is entirely impracticable , if not
utterly olmpossslblo. Upon what terms
could. England , Franco and Germany
enter Into an arrangement to wage a
commercial warfare against the United
States ? At prcsout the fiscal policy of
each of these countries is hostile to the
interests of the other in quito as great
degree ap the policy of the United States
is claimed to bo antagonistic to the
futorests of all of them. How
shall they adjust their trade rela
tions so as to enable them to make com
mon cause against the United States ?
Obviously there would have to be ma
terial concessions nil around , an aban
donment in Important particulars of a
part of the policy which each country
1ms adopted us a measure ot protection
against one or nil of the others , as well
ns for purposes of revenue , Is It reason
able to suppose they would do this slmplj
for the purpose of declaring their ells
satisfaction with the policy ot this coun
try , n portion of whoso products they
must have , and of which they now ttilto
uo uioru than they actually ueod ? Could
hey adopt n course of this kind without
crentlng such a popular protostns would
pccdlly compel them to recede from It ?
Germany nnd Franco already disc-rlm-
nnto against the United States to tlio
extent of excluding ono of our most hn-
lortiitit products. They can do no more to
ho Injury of this country unless they are
villlngto increase the hnrdsihlps
and privations ol their own people.
n Germany there ia now a vo-
icmont popular demand for the nbrnga-
Ion of tlio regulations which keep out
American hog products , the effect of
vhlch Is to.doprivo tons of thousands of
German homes of tlio use of meat. Will
lie people tolerate an increased tax
ipon their bread or other necessaries of :
vhlch the United States supply a p.irt ?
Vs to Franco , she buys nothing of this
country that she could dispense with
vlthout greater Injury to her people
, lum would result to us from -the Inn oC
ts sale to her. l-'nglaiul cannot venture
ipon retaliation without renouncing1 her
) ollcy ot half a century , nnd this her
statesmen are not at all likely to do ,
ivcii if her paoplo wore Avllling to ac-
coptdearcr bread , moat , andother .things
is the price of retaliation.
The utterances of curtain European
icwnpapors In favor of a commercial
varfare ngnlnst the United States do
lot reflect public sentiment nor
ho sober judgment of the Btates-
nen who control the policy ot gov
ernments. They speak only for the
naiiufcicturers who see in the policy of
this country a reduced market for their
iroducts. JMibtless In this they are
lot mistaken , but the remedy will note
> o found in retaliation. If found at all ,
t must bo in so lowering the cost of pro-
luctionas to overcome the dllTei'eiice
vhlch the higher tariff of this country
ins created. And this is the course
nest likely to bo pursued.
irro.if/iV0 SHOULD no.
Gold deposits of great value and extent
isivo been discovered in. the Medicine
3ow range of mountains in the heart of
Wyoming. This is not surprising. The
lew state which lies on Nebraska's
western boundary has long been known
.o contain immense deposits of natural
wealth. But this fresh demonstration
of the fact , flashed upon the country with
-he dramatic interest .
- always uccoinp.iuy-
nj the discovery of gold , should arouse
, ho people of the new state to asen&o of
the duty they owe themselves and the
latlon.
Statehood was conferred upon Wyotn-
.ng , notao much because she deserved
t as because it was btlieved she would
deserve it if she had a chance. It was
expected that the recognition of Wyoin-
.ng andother territories as sovereign
states would lend an immense impulse
.o their development. Clothed with the
lionor and dignity of political inan-
: iood , it is now to bo expected
ihat their paoplo will display
the virile qualities of energy and ambi
tion that belong ; to it. About Montana ,
Washington and the Dakotas there need
bo no concern. They are already well
advanced in population and the develop
ment ol their resources. But Idaho and
Wyoming yet remain very largely to bo
carved out of the wilderness.
Take Wyoming , for instance. A single
through railroad skirts its sou thorn boun
dary. Its chief justice still makes his
way three hundred miles on horseback
over the primeval mountains. Its great
mineral resources , asoxtenhivo and ox.-
haustlcss as those of Pennsylvania , and
as varied as those of Mcxifo , are un
touched and but partially explored. The
census returns its population at sixty
thousand , though nearly twice as many
were claimed when statehood was pend
ing.
How different is this \Vyoming from
the Wyoming that is to be , if the active
men who can make her future do their
duty. When the now state is ironed with
railroads , when settlers have been at
tracted to tlio rich agricultural
valleys , when the natural streams
have been inudo to do duty
for purposes of Irrigation , when gold ,
silver , coal and. oil have boon brought
from the earth , when cities and towns
have boon built up wherever the in
creasing demands of trade and industry
shall call for thorn , then will Wyoming
hnvo emerged from the wilderness and
begin to asbiuno the proportions of the
great stute she is fitted tube.
To hasten this splendid development
is the present duty of Wyoming.
Western communities go forward or
backward with startling1 strides. Ne
vada , admitted under circumstances
somewhat similar to "Wyoming1 , lias
made progress backward , and furnished
a , text for the democratic press of the
cast to sneer at the new states. L.ot
Wyoming keep stoi ) to the inspiring
music of the west and go forward with
out delay with tlo development of her
great possibilities.
HOLL.
The total number of men furnished to
tlio union army In the civil iVar was a
little less than two million eight hundred
thousand , the aggregate reduced to a
three years' standing being two million
throe hundred and twenty thousand ,
Two hundred and seventy-nine thousand
died in the service , and there were ono
hundred and ninety-nine thousand deserters -
sorters , these two making together four
hundredandsovonty-olghtthousand. Do-
ductingthisnumbor from the number who
served three years loaves 0110 million ,
eight hundred and forty-two thousand
as the number ol veterans at the close of
the war. Assuming that not more than
fifty per cent have since died , there are
now living a little over nine hundred
thousand of the men who served three
years in the union army during the re
bellion.
The annual report of the commissioner
of pensions , just completed , states that
at thoeloso of the last fiscal year , Juno
HO , there were a fc\v \ short of five hun
dred and thirty-eight thousand pensions
on the rolls , of which tliroo hundred and
ninety-two thousand were army invalid
pensions. Under the disability pension
act passed in Juno the claims received
down to September 30 numbered four
hundred and sixty thousand , or half the
estimated number of the surviving vet
erans ot the rebellion. Adding those
to the Invalid pensions gives a
total of eight hundred and fifty-
two thousand , or within sev
enty thousand ol the whole number of
old soldiers osthmtcjl to bo now living.
Yom this it wouldrnmrtar that the limit
of claims under the Tno\v law has been
nearly reached , JHH\ that whllo the nuni-
) or of these Is already considerably
jreater than the lih-gM esllmalo bcloro
holawwos enacted , \ho prediction that
ho claims would reach three-elimrters of
a million will not bo Verified. It would
seem that at the vui-j-joutalilo they cnn-
lot go beyond flvo hundred " 11U flfty
housaml , and they are very likely , alter
borough and cnrefuf investigation , to
all one hundred thousand below these
figures. At any rote there is excellent
cason to believe that Jhls just and gen
erous legislation by ; republican con
gress in behalf of the old soldiers ,
ccognizlnjr , In the language of the com-
nlssioner of pensions , "a higher oblign-
lon of the people to their disabled vcler-
mtthun ) was ever formulated Into law
before , " will not prove to bo such n
Iraln upon the treasury as its democratic
opponc ills have figured out.
The pension roll of the nation Is largo ,
nit every dollar that Is paid out to a
leborving1 veteran , or to the willows and
orphans of the men who preserved the
union , is a Beneficent disbursement that
elluots honor on the country. To the
upuhlican party belongs sill tlio credit
or this expression ol the gratitude of
the American people.
