Tun Cleveland democrats of Now York
are fearfully onrnged and threaten to
make Washington's birthday memorable
for democratic profanity. Their rage
Is vain , however. Mr. David Dennett
Hill will culu.brato another victory for

occasion in spite of Cleveland , the mug

the Empire state. The medicine Is made

TllK bteel beam trust having dis

' it enriched all who were connected with
It , A moro soulless and exacting m in-
opoly never existed and the amount of

price it hits maintained for stool beams
has been nearly double what was necos-
liiry to a. legitimate profit , as Is clearly
ihown by the present -irlco ( , and it wtm
enabled to choke off all competition and
to largely prevent the consumption of
Imported beams. The duty on steel
bourns was materially reduced by the
now tarHY and u reduction of the price
became necessary In order to moot the
competition of imported beams , The
duty of $ t0Q ! | Is still unreasonably high ,
but the dissolution of the trust Insures a
very great saving to builders , the de

Governor Thnyor retires from the ex
ecutive oflico this day and James E.
Hoytl will resume the position which lie
vacated ton months ago.
The people of Nebraska , regardless of
party , will feel grateful that the contest
over which this state has boon torn up
is at last settled , and settled In accord
ance with the verdict which the people
fCBtlorcd at the election of 1800.
This Is a government of majorities
nnd it should bo the bonst of ovary cltl-
xon of the great republic that the decree
of the m tjority oxprossoil through the
ballot Imx Is respected a > the edict of
the sovereign.
It Is gratifying that General Thnyor
has voluntarily surrendered the plnco
ho hold without waiting for an olllclal
copy of the mandate of the supreme
court. It was the manly and honorable
thing to do under the circumstances ,
and relieves not only Governor Thayer
but the republican party from the
oillum which would naturally have at
tached to any attempt to keep IBoyd out
of olllco by resorting to legal techni
calities.
lll.A IXK'S tlKChlXA TIOX.
The Associated Press has given to the
public : ti copy of the letter addressed by
Secrota-y Ulnliio to Chairman Clnrkson
of tlio national republican committee ,
declining under any circumstances to
allow his naiiio to go before the national
republican convention as a candidate for
the presidency.
This announcement has been antici
pated by those who are familiar with
Mr. Blatno's physical condition. Mr.
Ulnlno's health has been shattered for
several years past , and domestic alllic-
lions have materially augmented his
debility.
Mr. UlaiiiG doubtless realizes that the
runublictin parly will during the im-
Dending campaign require of its stand
ard beared exertions which will tax his
mental and physical capacity to the ut
most tension. Feeling unequal to the
task that will devolve upon a presiden
tial candidate , however popular" ho
might be , Mr. Blaine deems it his duty
to apprise his zealous and enthusiastic
friends and followers that ho cannot
"outer the lists as their loader even if the
nomination woio unanimously tendered
him.
him.Mr.
Mr. Blaino's declination will cause
sincere and lioartfolt regret1 } among
republicans everywhere. No man since
the days of Ilonry Clay has had such a
11 rm hold upon the hearts of the great
mti'-s of his followors.aud no man of either
party in our times could arouse greater
enthusiasm. In the west , moro than
any other part of the country , the
Plumed luiighl has always had warm
admirers and boats of devoted friends.
OCH IIIIITISII CltlTlCS.
The correspondent of the London Times
in Chill continues to supply that paper
with misrepresentations regarding the
pdlcials of the United States in that
country , nnd the English newspapers ,
with u few honoranlo exceptions , still
flnd fault with tlio course of this govern
ment toward Chili. It is not uncommon
to hear the complaint made in England
that there is an unfriendly fooling
toward that country in the United
States , and the conduct of the English
press is certainly well calculated to
create and to justify such a feeling. Its
uniform practice into disparage and flnd
fault with urotty much everything of
an international character that is done
by our government , and this is done , not
in the Hiiirit of kindly counsel , but with
a malicious purpose to lower this coun
try in the respect of other nations. If
it could fairly be assumed that the Eng
lish newspapers represent the intelli
gent public opinion of England , rather
than the Interests of the capitalists and
manufacturers , it would have to bo con
cluded that in no other country in the
world is there HO much unfriendliness
toward the United States.
British criticism of the course of the
government of the United States in the
Chilian matter has boon gratuitously
insolent. It could lind nothing to com
mend in the good temper , the patience
and the forbearance of this government
under circumstances of'a very trying
and provoking character , but the de
termination to insist upon a proper and
full recognition of our rights is charac
terized as bluster and swagger. No
peonlo in the world have less right than
the English people to condemn those
qualities , but it is grossly unjust to say
that they were exhibited in the least
degree by the government or the pcoplo
of the United States. A candid read
ing of the diplomatic correspondence
will compel the admission that there is
not a suggestion of bluster In any of the
communications sent to the Chilian
government , unless a llrm adherence to
just demands can be so regarded. It is
equally true that the president' ' ! mes
sage to congress contained nothing of
this character , unless in&isloncn upon
the duty of the government lo protect
its citl/.ons and maintain Its honor and
dignity can fairly be held to bo bluster.
It Is true that preparations for possible
war were pushed with the activity and
vigor which the circutnbtaiice.s boomed
to demand , but any other country would
have done likewise under similar con
ditions. It was the part of wl&dnm and
exerted a wholesome inlluerco upon the
controvury. It is also true that the
people , being heartily in accord with
the government , when hostilities
rcomcd imminent signified their readi
ness to go to the support of the govern
ment , but there w.is nothing of the nature -
turo of bluster In this popular expression
of patriotism ,
The American people are not greatly
concerned about Brltlsiroplnlon. They
are entirely capable of taking care of
their own affairs at homo and abroad ,
and they do not oxpoot or particularly
desire to please England , They have u
pretty accurate conception of the mo
tives which inspire British criticism
and they do not expect to avoid U so
long as the United States continues to
make commercial progress against
British competition. But if England
desires lo cultivate the friendship of the
people of the United States , as English'
men uro wont to assort , such Insolent
and unwarranted criticism ns the press
ol that country has recently so freely
indulged In c umot reasonably bo ex
pected to do otherwise than militate
against the growth of friendly feeling.
There Is no longer any doubt us to
where Mr. lloger Q. Mills stands and
what ho Intends to do. IIu hns clearly
stated his position and purpose , and the
announcement will not Improve tbodem
ocratic situation. Mr. Mills does not
bollovo in any compromising or lompor-
Mny policy regarding the tarilT. Ho Is
for war , not upon parts of the law , but
against the whole of it , nnd ho will ac
cept nothing less than this. IIo looks
upon the proposition to attack only cer
tain features of the tariff as amounting
to a surrender of tlio democratic posi
tion , and ho will not bo a parly to such
a plan. It will bo entirely usolo for
Mr. DavlJ A. Wells or anybody else to
now plead with Mr. Mills to allow the
Sprlnt'cr policy to prevail. Having de
clared himself and proclaimed what ho
regards as the duly of the party , the
C'orslcana statesman is not the sort of
man lo rolroat , or whiil would bo practi
cally the same lliing lo permit Ihoso
who oniorlaln opposite views to put
them in effect without it contest.
Mr. Mills will'undoubtedly bo hoard
from in the house at an early day. The
program of the ways and means com-
mllleo has been made out according lo
Iho Springer plan , and the work of car
rying it oul will probably bo onlorcd
upon this wcok. The start will bo made
when Iho ways and means commllloo ro-
purls the hill to put wool on ihe free
list , and this will bo Mr. Mills' oppor
tunity. In the meantime those who are
opposed to the Springer policy of attack
ing the tariff by separata bills are
causing the ways and moans committee
some anxiety and embarrassment by
threatening to bombard it with resolu
tions instructing the committee lo re
port bills putting various articles on the
free list. An indication of this design
is seen in the resolution relating to agri
cultural implements.
It is altogether probable that the
Springer policy will prevail , but Mr.
Mills will bo able to rally a strong mi
nority of the democrats of the house in
opposition to it , and if ho brings to the
contobt which ho proposes to miflce his
usual earnestness and vigor ho can make
the dominant faction feel very uncom
fortable. The olToct of his attitude
must bo to perpetuate and perhaps in
tensify Iho dissension in Iho democratic
ranks and to cirry it Into the national
convention , whore , from all present in
dications , there will boonoof the hottest
and bitterest conflicts over had in a
political convention.
TJIK VIADUCT VA'SAFK.
THU BEK has repeatedly expressed
the opinion that the Sixteenth street
wooden viaduct should bo replaced with
ono of iron and steel upon stone piers ,
The principal reason for urging Iho
change has been that the present struc
ture is not adequate to the traftle which
would naturally pass over it and is.now
in urgent need of repair. These argu
ments in favor of an entirely now via
duct are strongly reinforced by the re
ports of experts who have re-examined
H < within the last few days and who
agree that the wooden bridge is unsafe
for travel and is a menace to the lives of
the thousands who are daily compelled
to pass over it either in their own vehi
cles , on foot or in the motor cars.
Although olTorts uro now being made
to strengthen the bridge , nud it may bo
made reasonably safe for ordinary
travel , it is useless to atlompt lo patch
up the structure so as to relieve the pub
lic from a reasonable- apprehension of
danger. The city engineer is convinced
that heavily loaded motor trains tax the
.strength of the spans to the danger limit ,
and ho will recommend that an ordin
ance bo passed regulating the movement
of motor trains upon the viaduct. This
is proper , but it is a mere makeshift.
The principal thoroughfare of the city
of Omaha is Sixtoanth jtroot. It will
always bo the tralllc street between
Omaha and South Omaha. It will be
absurd as well as dangerous to insist
upon continuing to use this long , nar
row wooden bridge. Thoio is no way to
Oi-capa rebuilding the viaduct. It should
be as wide and strong as that on Tenth
street und the council ought not to
delay tlio ordinance compelling the rail
ways to replace the present structure
with ono ample for the future growth of
the two cities. The injury and death of
ono train load of motor passengers would
involve Iho city in damages far beyond
the cost of a now nnd thoroughly sub
stantial viaduct. The responsibility is
ono of which the city should bo relieved
without delay.
KANSAS CITY Is to have a $2,000,000
federal building. The Journal prints a
.cut of the design , and states that Super
vising Architect Edbrooko will shortly
visit Kansas City to examine the silo in
person. It Is to bo hoped Mr. Edbrooko
may 11 nil time to como to Omaha also.
There are some people in this city who
would bo pleased to point oul some de
fects In his design for the Omaha bulld-
TIIK committee appointed to select a
spcnlfor to present Oinaha'o claims to
tlio people's parly at St. Louis for the
national convention will do well to select
an orator who is neither an active par
tisan politician nor a railroad atlornoy.
Tin : residence slieots on which light
travel only is expected , and which are
ordinarily clean and passable , are being
rapidly ruinnd by constant dirt-hauling
in heavy vehicles. There must bo some
thing done to abate the nuisance.

The story of ono of the great stops forward
In newspaper and telegraph progress has
never been adequately told. It Is the record
of n change In methods little short of mnr-
volous nnd perhaps even mow fnr-roachlnB
In Its practical benefit nud dlroet results than
the substitution of Morso's first wires for the
pigeons nnd ponies thnt originally carried
the news of the day for all ttioUnited States ,
Though llttlo understood by many of the
mngnatos nnd workers In newspaper nnd
tclograph circles , probably because too llttlo
tnlkedof by these to whom the credit Is due ,
the facts are nevertheless of wldo and per
manent interest * To ono man's < iucit ! por-
copllon , persistent energy nnd Intelligent
grasu of n complex problem , nnd lo the pluck ,
skill und perseverance In the faeo of the gon-
d."M ridicule of a score of others , emulating
the spirit of their chief , Is to bo utributcd the
vxliitormnry "success achieved.
It wns early In is > sr > that the Idea of organ
ising1 a general system of leased telegraph
lines throughout the west for news associa
tion purpose * wna conceived with the twin
project of utilizing the typewriter for en
hancing the value nllko of the operator's ' ser
vices and the time of the wires. Do-
splto the loudly-vaunted praises of
latter day Imitators , the matter first took
definite shnpo in the olllccs of tlm Associated
I'ress , was designed for the advantage of Its
service nnd wns brought to perfection wholly
by mon Ufontlllod with the Associated I'rcss
system. The superintendent of telegraph ,
night manager for the Associated I'ress nt
thnt time us" now was Addlson C. Thomas of
Chicago , strangely enough moro generally
known for his ability nud force In strictly
newspaper work for the past seventeen
years In connvcllon with the handling of
reports of national conventions and other
world-stirring { events tthan for originating
nnd bringing to success Iho most distinctive
features of telegraph work for the news
papers a system of leased lines turning out
the news of the universe in copy so perfect
ns practically to require for publication onlv
the addition of headlines.
Prior to the now departure , press dis
patches were dealt out to the newspapers ,
great and small , at so much a word. To
save telegraph tolls everything was "in
skeleton , " that is , all small words such ns
"of" and "tho" were omitted , nnd the uows
itself on extraordinary occasions wns re
duced to the barest outlines of facts. The
result was a collation that whllo decidedly
the best known at the time , compared with
what goes into the newspaper ofllcos now-n-
days , was as dry and different as salt cod-
llsh is from terrapin stow.
Matters unproncbod n focus when General
Mnnngur William Henry Smith nnd the
board of directors of the Associated Press
decided to try for a few mouths what was
thought meraiy uu experiment the leasing
of wires for themselves from the telegraph
company. The operators selected bv Mr.
Thomas were the pick of the profession , nnd
the esprit du corps that ho fostered und their
magnificent work lightened the burdens ot
hundreds of weary telegraph editors from
Now York to San Francisco. Dispatches
were no longer "hkaletonlyed , " news was
rounded out with life and color , nnd the vol
ume quadrupled.
But the "experiment , " pleasant as were
the results , was nrovine a costly one , nnd
the operators , though paid relatively high
salaries , felt that they" worn maintnluing n
killing pace. It was nt this juncture tbnt
the application of the typewriter to the ser
vice as n solution of tlio ( juostion of ox pen so
and of the other clifllcultlcs made thu "leased
wire system" a national fixture , the use of
which is expanding from year to year.
Under the encouragement n'f the sup'orln-
tomU'nt , Operator John A. Payne of Nash
ville. Tenn. . lirst made himself proficient in
employing the instrument to transcribe the
now.i dispatches as they were rattled oil nt
what was supposed to bo the phenomenal
gait of forty words n minnto. Then others
of the staff learned , and contests for prizes
offered hv Mr. Thomas soon madeall the
men exports ; the lirst cash prize being captured -
turod by ( Jcorgo K. Allhnnds of Louisville ,
thn second bv R H. Williams of Pittsburfr ,
familialIv known as "fatty Williams. "
The \ \ hole matter was clinched by an in
genious device , tno personal invention of the
superintendent , for which letters of patent
worn Issued to him by the United States gov
ernment. This was the feed guide. Press
dispatches being furnished in common to a
number of newspapers in each largo city
huvc frnm tlmo immemorial been necessarily
taken on manifold tissue paper with carbon
fchoots between. How to handle such a
cumbrous bundle in n typewriter wns n
'
pu//lo ; but the familiar 'tin slide , "tho
Thomas feedguidinow attached to every
telegrapher's machine , made the method
clear as Columbus' explanation of how nn
egg could stand on und. The important
fact should bo noted that John Payne's beau
tiful work , nnd Hint of Individuals nt
widelv scattered points who had before-
ham ] , moro or loss unsuccessfully essayed
the foal accomplished by him , was wholly on
a single copy of dispatches. No manifold
was ubod or could bo used until the inven
tion of the feed-guide , and it is simple
effrontery , not to say idiocy , ttiat would
seek to dispute the record : ills , briefly , thnt
mouths beloro any ether organisation the
Associated I'ress had in operation on n leased
wire system ot its own a brilliant corps of
typewriter telegraphers dolntr for the news
papers of America what had never before
been thouRht ot , much U-SH nndurinkcn.
Thu exact truth is that the ilrat .successful
plan for brlnginir the typewriter Into gen
eral usu for telegraph purposes was con
ceived within three days after iho Asso
ciated Press leascd-wiro service .started. Air.
Puvno wns withdrawn from his regular
work In the Associated Press onlco nt Nasli-
vlllo , and his expenses and snlurv paid
whllo ho visited , "machine" in hand , tlio
Associated Press offices at Washington ,
Now York , Philadelphia , Baltimore nnd all
the larger cites cast and xvost of the Allo-
Chnnles. The purpo.o of thn tour was to
give the Associated Press operators a chance
to see for themselves the possibilities opened
UP. am
It wns thus thnt concerted action was se
cured on the part of what ptovod to bo n
compact body of pioncors , nnn thnAssoclatod
Press succeeded where before .failure had
boon uniform with others aad even with
Itself. The Introduction of tno muchinn
opened up a now Hold for its usefulness for
the benefit of the telegraph editor and pronf
loader , Tlio old style manifold , or moro
familiarly known to nowspuper imm as "tho
flimsy , " was abandoned for tbo cheap
whllo paper , nr.icllcally the xamo ns
print p.ipor except whiter uud of finer
texture and light weight. This paper was
made especially for Iho use of the Associated
I1 res3 under the personal Miporvlslon of Mr.
Thonia , who lint suggested the mnchlno
manifold paper and gave nn order for Its
peculiar manufacture , which miido it possi
ble In produce n * nigh as thirty copies at ono
writing. Thin paper wns manufactured ox.
pn'Rhly for the Associated Press bv Mrs-
VVndn of Chicago , who is thn daughter of the
Inventor of manifold paper , nnd who has for
yunrs carried on thu buninoaa.
If it were piiniPlo to genuinely dispute
with the Atfftockiii'd I'ress Iho honor for thu
inception uf thu typewriter service ,
the Htntcmont would Ha duo that a
Mr. 1C. P. Porter of Chicago Hrst used the
typewriter in making single copies of mca

As n conscquonco the project was once moro

In ISWhltelaw * Held of the Now York
Tribune wrote William Henry Smith ,
gnncrnl manager of the Associated Press ,
that tin had an application from ono Wcllnor ,
nn operator , who claimed to have n cede
which ho could use In connection with the
machine and thus double the cnpacltv of the
wires nnd furnish it typewritten copy. On
receipt of this letter Wllllnm Henry Smith
ntonco tclogrnphod Mr. Held to send on his
man to Chicago. Wellnor , after repeated
ufTorla In ttio Associated Prt s' Chicago
onlco to make it "n go" gave It up as ho had
to .stop the wlru to change thu manifold
books , etc. Again the stylus had n victory
over the machine nud held Its supremacy
until ISSri.
Mr. Wyckoff of U'vcliofT , Soamnns &
Benedict , of Now York , on hearing thnt Iho
machine was being talked of anew by the
Associated Press , cnmo to Chicago , nnd
called on Superintendent ThomAt nnd made
a bid for the trade. Ho was Irformed that
the typewriter wns thrown out l.earlv ten
years before , nnd had remained out on ac
count of ccttnln defects ; bntttmtlf ilia Type
writer company would invent nn
appliance for holding nr.d fcodlng
the manifold books , the Associated
Press would make n contract for fTi.iXK ) or
fn.UOO worth of machines ns n starter , Mr.
Wyckoff said ho believed such an Invention
could not bo made , hut thnt thuv would put
their experts ntork , Thomas then visited
Now York , Hartford , Conn. , nrnl ether cities
where writing machines nro innnufnctuicd ,
nnd lit thu shops his suggestions
were carried out for numerous changes
In the machine to perfect them for press nnd
tolccraph work , the object being to prevent
n monopoly of any certain writing machines
In the Hold , opened for their use. Thn
result was that the Kotnington , the Cnll-
grnph , the Smith nnd other machines were
soon pressed Into active soi vice throughout
thn land.
In the morntmo ! u dovko wns studied out
by Mr. Thomas nnd patents applied for.
Immediately n Job lot of Thomas' fcod guides
was made in Chicago nnd rushed through to
Washington , Haltimoro , Now V/irk , Phila
delphia .nut nil other eastern and west
ern cities. Machines were ordered and
the now departure started notwithstand
ing the protests and discouragements of the
Western Union nnd the pro ] ml lees
ol old-tlmo operators. Then It w.is thnt the
stylus mot Its Waterloo. Today the U cstern
Union ottlcos are illlod with typewriters , nnd
In your telegraph room is heard the elicit of
n dozen machines recording thu special
dispatches to Tin : Bin : , where years ago the

There will not only bo no legislation in
this congress Intuudud to generally affect
pensions , but no opportunity will bo missed
In the house to cast oJlom upon thu policy uf
pensions. There may be some general penMan -
Man bills passed by the soua'c , but not in
much Interest will bo taken by that body us1
usual , on account of the well known fact that
'
It Is next to nn Impossibility to got ur.y gou
oral loKNlntion through this houso.
Thotirst tlmo the mace , the emblem of
uuthoi'ity , has boon brought forward In the
present congress was In iho house the ether
if ay when un ex-Midler was making an appcn
for a hearing in the interest ot u genuriH ,
pension bill. The hoiuo had wasted a
number of days ! n the discussion of the
rules und had como to what was in effect u
deadlock. Democratic members had howlud
themselves hoarse , and m.ulu their arms
tired In halting their lists at eucl
other nnd at thu republican side ,
whoa ftlujor 1'icklor of .South Da
kola nroso and asked In a very temporuia
tone nnd modest manner if It would not bo D
good time to take u rest on the discussion of
tlio tulu ? and glvo consltluratlon ton general
pension bill , the merits of which were so
plain on its face us lo Invite no unnecessary
dubato ,
The moment ibo word "pensions" passed
his lips Duck Kllgoro of Texas , the howling
i-x confederate , wno nuvor mitsos an oppor
tunity of rising nnd declaiming agalnsl pen
sions , sprang lo his foul and yelled an ob
jection. It was unnecessary , however , for
that gonllctiM'i to enter n protest , for more i
than 101) men on the democratic si , o begun to
( { roan nnd iminnur , "oh I oh I oh ! " Again
and r.galn Major I'ickler attempted to appeal
to ihu reason of the house if not to the pity
und charity of tlioio who had the power to
bestow assistance to the veterans , their
widows und orphans , but In uvury cffurt his
words were urowuod by n chorus
from the democratic side , where thuro
were jeers , ridicule und the very picture
of dlsKiist us each ono exclaimed "Oh1 oh I
oh ! " The scene wns or.o which would hava
stirred thu blood in any patriot's heart.
Alter a.persistent and patriotic appeal to
thu house , which met with the most cordial
sympathy on tbo part of every republican
nnd a few democrats , but with tlio ridicule
of n gtoat number nnd n largu majority of
thu followers of Crisp und Mills , thu attempt
to lix u day for securing the consideration of
the pension bill was abandoned , and for o
moment at least the last hope of pension
legislation was dulcatcd.
Tlm-n Itllln In THO MniitliH.
Attention was Iho other day called to the
fact that although Iho prosoutJscsblQn of con
press hns consumed two inoiilns bill Ihrcu-
bllls had boon adopted by the houso. There
nro now nearly tiUUO , bills upon tha records (
of the clerk's document room nnd Iho
pecls nro ibat thu entire number of measures /
which will bo introduced ut the present
session uf this house will exceed by 'J.OIU or
: IOUU iho number introduced into the previous
congress , und there are these who believe
that Iho aggregate of bills which will bo in
troduced in the present House will number
over 15,000. Utibually the percent of the
bills introduced in congress which become
Inw.s vniios from I ) lo ' .I , and Ihoro have not
been more than 10 per com of Ibu aggregate
measures proposed which have become laws
In the last congress about & pnr
cent of the hills introduced were found
upmi the statute. ; when thu term expired.
It looks now that them will not bu U per
cent of the bills proposed in this congress ir.
law when the term expires on March I , Ib'.ll.
In the matter of the introduction uf bills in
congress the democrats nro proving them
selves us demagogical us they aio in pro
claiming upon the hustings during their
campaign , when all sorts uf promises are
made but none fulfilled , It hns been the
policy of the democrats for many years to
simply Introduce measures and promise llnal
action but by prearrangement lo ilulo.it Hunt
action , there bolng n doublu nlm in Ibis
policy. In the first plaro it contemplates an
oxpundlluio of public funus to enforce mojt
of the legislation of congress. In the second
place n creat mauy members are enabled to
retain a hold upon their constituents by cons. , \
tlnuall.v promising them this nnd thai locls-x '
Union , Iho consummation of which would
deprive thorn of most ot their political cap-
ital. "
Some of the bills which have bean intro
duced since this session convened in Docuin
her last huvo boon upon the calendars of
congress fo- many years. Some of thorn , for
private pension legislation , have received
favorable action at the bunds of the pension
committees , and have appeared every Iwo
years for moro than u decade. It would bo
easy to secure llnal action upon a large
number of tbeso bills , but by continually
promising legislation , and caretully prevent
ing It , the demagogues arc enabled 10 nitnlu
their hold upon these directly intciojted.

A proposition has been made In congresi
