nado a creditable record in public life
Jut ho will not bo re-elected , because tin
onditions which contributed to his sue

lassachusotts was not so much ulTeclei
y tlio landslide of 1800 as most olio
lie other states , but the inlluencos
lion at work were strong enougl
iioro to reduce the republican vote
'
bout 50,000. This year , it'is reason-
bly to bo expected , the full vote will be
iist , and in that case t'io ' republicans
ill carry the st'ito by a generous
lurality. There is no evidence of any
jrious disalToction in the party , and if

ill elect its ticket.
The attitude of the democrats ol

more direct rebuke of the southern
ml western wings of the party than

bould bo of equal intrinsic value , and

noy of Massachusetts to silver

) 'tn , in view of the general attitude of
lie democratic party regarding civil
jrvlco reform , is tlio arraignment of

ig made appointments in the census bu-
twu subject to the civil service law. Of

The National Civil Service Reform
; ague hold its annual mooting in lluf-
ilo yesterday. There was the usual
uslnoss , an address and the report of a
: mimtUoo on the condition of the fed-
nil civil service and operation of the
aform law. That law has now boon in
porntlon about eight years , and much
reater progress has been miiilo
i reforming the borvico than
as seriously expected by the
ipportors of the measure when
' . wtm enacted , but still the
'ague ' llnds causes of complaint ,
ho time may never eomo when this
iiinot bo done , and yet it is certainly
to have a system of olvil service
reform In tlio United States that slit
bo us frco from causes of complaint as
the system in England. Atanyrato
American citizen would care to iidtv
that tli is country Is incapable of cniulr
ing English example in this matter ,
that it is loss practicable to effective
carry out such a reform under t
publican than under monarch !
institutions. It may be admitted th
there are reasons why the process of o
tending the reform should be stowi
hero , but whatever results have bet
attained in England ought to bo ult
matoly reached hero , if popular sonl
mont continue to sustain the policy.
It is pleasing to find the annual n
dross to tlio reform league acknowlod ;
ing that President Harrison's seloctli
of civil service commissioners was
strict conformity to tlio spirit of the pin
form upon which ho was elected at
to his own professions and pledges as
candidate , but the value of tills ncknow
edgomont is greatly reduced by the su
sequent attack on tlio administration ft
permitting the decapitation of HO mar
democratic postmasters. What is r
marknblo in this connection is that tl :
reformers appear to attach no itnpo
tanco to the great improvement thath :
taken place in tlio postal service , due i
no small degree to the more inlcligoi
and olllcicnt mun put into the set"
ice under the present admlnlstratioi
The most serious complaint , howovo
Is with reference to the refusal of th
president to extend the reform systoi
to appointments under the census b ,
reau , and this is made to justify an a
tack on the accuracy and trustwortb
Iness of the census which suggests a d <
sire on the part of the special commlttc
of the league to furnish the democrat !
party with ammunition.
The complaints of th/ reform loagu
are really not very serious or importan
while its admissions of the progress thu
has been made ought to satisfy over
reasonable man who understands th
diflicultics which have been In the wn
of advancing tlio reform. The preson
administration merits the heartiest con
mendation for what it has done in tli
extension of tlio reform and in givin
the policy a stronger claim to populn
favor and support. It can justly bo sai
that In no other respect has Prosidon
Harrison been more faithful to his ow
and his party's plcdires.
NOTWITHSTANDING the financia
stringency which has retarded indus
trial development in every section c
the country , the statistics of now enter
prises in the south during the thin
quarter of the present year show a vor ,
gratifying progress. The number c
now industries established during th
past thrco months is stated to havi
boon one thousand , which is bu
llttlo loss than for tlio correspondinj
quarter of last year and consider
ably larger than for the same period o
1881) . The industries established embrace
brace a great variety of enterprises , am
perhaps the most remarkable fact ii
connection with these statistics is tin
statement that 120 railroad companic
have boon organized , promising ni
extraordinary development of the trans
portation interests in the near future ant
also indicating the faith of capital ii
the growth of the business of tin
south. Perhaps the most gratifyiiif
feature in southern development is tin
establishment of machine shops am
foundries. In view 01 the rapid indus
trial progress of that facction it wouli
seem inevitable that the domination o
the party of free trade cannot bo mucl
longer maintained.
A QUESTION has boon raised in Okla
homa regarding the right of the government
ornmont to enforce the attendance of In
dinn children at schools , which promise :
to bo a serious obstacle in the way of ed
ucating Indian youth. The last congress
gross gave the Indian department nu
thority to compel the children of In
diniib to attend school. Under this law
n boy was placed in Chilocco school noni
Arkansas City. The father of the bo
instituted habeas corpus proceeding *
and the court hold that tlio detention ol
the boy against tlio will of his parents
was illegal. The Indian ollico propose *
to make a trial case of this in the hope
that the higher courts may sustain the
congressional act. For the sake of the
Indians it is hoped that the Indian olllcc
is right and the Oklahoma judge wrong.
ALL the independent nominees for
jaunty olllces In Dakota county except
Iho county commissioner , have hitherto
Lieon rampant , rod hot democrats. Da-
nota county may bo regarded as a vindi
cation of Congressman Bryan'.s theory
that the democrats and independents are
twin-sinters.

The City Hall Furniture Deal.

Tlio unf > rgiving and traitorous act of the
city council in contracting with the ICotclmm
Furniture company of Toledo , O. , to supply
the furniture to equip the city hall has ere-
iited the wholesale indignation of thousands
3f Omnhii residents , moro especially has the
resolute ire of the trades union people been
iroiisod to n pitch of dotertninntion to resort
to strenuous work , if It becomes neces
sary to have Omaha furniture deal
ers consummate this sale. When con-
loring the fact that our homo doal-
jrs submitted the lowest bid , it loads to no
isloimhmoat to know that the wookworkcrs
leolaio their intentions of accomplishing ,
.vita . thoholp of many others , nn undertaking

ustly entitled to it.
Wo mil nu immediate halt to this "red
ape" scheme , and urge every true lover ot
lonio Industry to combine with their fellow-
non in the struggle for that which is honor-
iblo nnd just.

I'liey Murder anil Itiirn In Leo County ,
MAIUAXN-A , Ark. , Sept. 20. Band of riot-
) us negroes have almost taken possion of Leo
: ounty , Arkansas. The Hilling of Tom
\lillor.a white man nnd agent for J.A. Frnnlc ,
> V the rioters and strikers has precipitated n
icrious state of affairs. Tno indications for
lotno time , indeed , since the reduction of the
n'lco for picking cotton has boon inaugurnt-
id , have been Unit there would bo trouble bo-
ween the blacks and whites. Cotton picking
ins been suspended In Leo county for several
lays nnd the pickora hnvo refused to worker
or SO cents per hundred pour.ds. On Satur-
lay last an nrmed gang of about ono hunurcd
i eg res ' took possession along the roadside
ending' J. R Frank's plantation. The
igent of Mr. D'rank , Tom Miller , mot the in-
'uriatcd neirroos nnu tried to dissuade them
'rom their riotous intentions , Imt tho.y shot
n in down without u moment's warning.
They proceeded on their way , cursing and
ibusiug every white man they met , nud
hrotttonlng all their property with uestruc-
ion. When the readied tno plantation
mown as the Park place , the houses of Ilond
md Terrell were sot on lire and burned to the
; round and afterwards several others in the
loighborhcod mot a similar fate. The dum-
/nstratlon en the part of the blacks has
irousod the entire country and the sherllT
md Mr. Itoud with u posse ot lifty mon are

It seems that the rioting negroes wcro

oundcd them in the cane last night. No cas-

BEB. I The ease of the State of Nebraska vs.
Edward . llutclilnson , charged with mur
der , was called in the district court before
Judge Field this morning , but it created little
interest in the city , llutclilnson came Into
court loaning on the arm of his sou , E. W.
Hutchtnsou , Jr. Ho looked haggard and
careworn , but little worse , however , than ho
did the morning of his capture , when ho sat
with bowed head before the stove In police
headquarters. Ho appeared to talio hut llttlo
interest in the proceedluir.s , whluti thus fur
have been of a formal nature. Ho pleaded
not guilty to the indictment , ami the work
of empanelling u Jury wns begun.
There are a host of wi'ticssos already sum
nioncd on thu case. The state has issued
subpoenas for thirty witnesses , while the de
fense nMts for twenty-nine. The defendant's
witnesses nro mostly trom Saunder.s county ,
four residing In Lancaster and four in Cass.
The chief witness for the state Is Miss
Lou Hire , but she has not yet been sub-
pu'imed. In fact she has left thu city. She
was formerly employed as a trimmer at iho
millinery establishment of the Thornburn
sisters' and on the night of the murder was
In thu adjoining room. Deputy ShoriiT Me-
Karl and is at present in Kansas looking up
ho. whereabouts.
Tlu del nso will bo insanity , and the old
neighoors of the defendant will be called in
to testify to his actions. After committing
tlio deed Hutchnmon ran down the .Uiih-s ,
past u policeman , nnd It was not until almost
a week afterwards that , ho was captured by
Marshal Mellck in bed at his homo near
Memphis , Saunders county , where ho had
been hidden by his family. It is not probaiilu
that a Jury will ho secured before tomorrow
noon , but the trial will bo finished by the
end ot the week.
Miss Hlcc , it Is alleged , know moro of thu
relations existing between the defendant
and Mrs. Green than anyone else , and her
testimony on that point Is desirable. Mrs.
Green's brother , Augustus Gilbert , wns in
the bath room when the shooting teen place ,
and the state will have to rely a great deal
on his testimony.
