JifB.Y WHO tlKl'ItKSKfiT ltKAS. The speech of Chnuncoy M. Dopow nt the dedication of the convention hall nt Minneapolis contains many peed points , nmong which IB the following : "Tho history of our organization , It3 mon nnd its measures of the past , nro n part of its claim to popular support. The demo cratic party , neither through the mouths of its orators nor the uttcrancos of its conventions nor the editorials of its newspapers , over refers to n democratic statesman slnco General Jackson , with ono exception. " The exception referred to by the speaker is Grover Cleveland. Ho is the only man who la over pointed out as standing for anything in particular , though nn ofTort has somotlmos been made to magnify Senator Hill by refer ring to the uncompromising quality of his democracy , It is significant that republicans are nblo to point to so many distinguished men as representatives of the principles and politics of their party , while the democrats hnvo but ono man who represents nn idea. The idea of which ho is the chosen exemplar is only n vnguo ono which no man can dofliio. Ho fltands for a profession of reform pur poses , but the good faith of that profes sion is doubted even in his own party. Mr. Cleveland's candidacy is bused upon the assumption that ho is greater and bottqr than his party nn assumption that is hotly resented by the element that glories in Mr. Hill's robust and aggressive democracy. Evan if the ox- president may bo said to stand as the representative of a worthy purpose it certainly cnunot bo said that ho repre sents his party. The distinguished re publicans named by Mr. Dopow stand for republicanism , for what it has done and for what It proposes to do , nnd so Intimately nro the records of tholr indi vidual lives inwrought with that of the organization to which they belong that at the mere mention of tholr names the gront deeds of the republican party come trooping to the mind in nn instant. The strong contrast between the two organizations In this respect accounts for the fact that a majority of the people plo who think nnd reason are identified with the republican party. Firm in the belief that what It has done and is doing under the leadcirshlp of such men is the boat evidence of what It will do in the future , they refuse to accept mere prom ises from tlio democracy. If it were not for the readiness with which the thoughtless seize upon promises nnd rc- linguish the substance for the shadow , It would hardlv bo worth while for the democrats to look for a. presidential candidate. A VALUAHbB UNDOltSEMUNT. The South Omaha Live Stock ex change has unanimously endorsed the Nebraska Central project. The resolu tions adopted by that important busi ness organization are explicit nnd un qualified in approving the proposition. They express the opinion that an ox ten sion of the territory from which the packing industries of South Omaha can draw their supplies is essential to their future giowth and prosperity. Terri " tory which ought to bo tributary to this packing center is now practically Inac cessible owing to a lack of railway facili ties , and this condition of a flairs would bo remedied by carrying out the Ne braska Central project. It would enable South Omaha packers to obtain supplies which now go to Chicago nnd other packing points , thus largely Increasing the business of the former nnd advanc ing the prosperity of the Magic city. In view of this the exchange urges all persons interested in the growth of the packing industries , which comprehend the progress and permanent prosperity of South Omaha , to support the propo sition. * This endorsement ought to have great influence throughout the county , for it is presumed that every citizen desires the continued growth and prosperity of the paciting industry , by far the most important in the county. . Unquestiona bly whatever will advance the interests of South Omaha will also help Omaha The welfare of the two cities is practic ally Identical. The growth of the for mer must inevitably contribute to the progress of the latter. The endorse ment of the Nebraska Central project by the live stock exchange is , the ap proval of thoroughly prnctlcafmonwho know the situation and what is necessary to improve it. Their judgment will have weight with other intelligent and progressive business mon and ought to Imvo an inlluonco with everybody who bollovcs that Omaha should bo released , so far as its railroad fnoilltlos are concerned - corned , from the domination of a single corporation which has never shown nny concern for the progress and prosperity of thia city. HAKIAU AB ' STATES. Bills were puehod through the houao of representatives on Monday , under a suspension of the rules , for ndmittlng the torritciios of Now Mexico and Ari zona to statehood. Legislation of this ldnd.ul the present session of congress has boon expected , bills having boon in troduced for the admission of all the territories and a strong pressure brought to bo.ir in favor of such action. The people of Now Mexico have boon especi ally urgent , presenting the claim which the last connua justifies that the terri tory has n , population gro.itor than that of the st.itca of Idaho nnd Wyoming combined and throe times that of the state of Nevada. Tlio objection has been that this population ia made up of nn Incongruous muddle of races , and that but a small proportion of the voters understand thp American political sys tem. Unquestionably this objection ima lost n great deal of its original force within the lust two your * * , or elnco the production of facts by the census allow ing that Now Mexico had made rapid progress in popular education and also in material growth. Very good reasons uro given why the territory should bo given statehood , and a candid study of itb resources will remove any doubt as to the ability of its people to maintain s atato government It ia said to bo now realizing n quite vigorous develop- inout. Arizona is in n fur loss favorable con dition for htntobood. Iu population nt thia time dooa not exceed 70,000 , or less than half the number required under the now apportionment for u representative ' in congress , and Ita'resources are not such aa to invlto n rapid increase of pop- ilation , n largo part of the territory > oing arid nnd worthless for agricultural purposes without irrigation. The poo- ilo last year adopted n stnto constitution ind nro practically unanimous for state hood , but this does not prove that they nro in condition to support n state gov ernment , nnd there is n reasonable jround of doubt on this point which ills , ho duty of congress not to Ignore. It is n sound principle to make states of the territories ns soon ns the conditions warrant doing BO , but when there is n question na to the ability of a people to nssumo the duties nnd obligntiona of statehood it It wise to wait. This np- pcara to bo the situation regarding Ari zona. zona.With With rogaid to Oklahoma nnd Utah , for the ndmlsalon of which bills were in troduced early in the session , it la not probahlo that nny action will bo taken liy this congress. Still Oklahoma haa a much bettor claim , BO far na population nnd resources are concerned , than Ari zona , while Utah is in both respects far in advance of Now Mexico. What the chances of Now Mexico nnd Arizona will bo In the senate Is uncertain , but in nny event there will bo no now slate ad mitted before the proaldoutinl election. It ia doubtless safe to predict that at the election of 1890 the only portions of the country whoso people will not bo nblo to vote for president will bo the District of Columbia and Alaska. TltK SOUVMt.lU HALF DQLLAItS. The proposition to issue souvenir half dollar pieces in the sum of five million dollars , the amount asked from the cren- oral government for the World's fair , has occasioned considerable debate nmong financial authorities , since it in volves several important questions re lating to the possible effect upon the treasury. A bill prepared by Represen tative Duborrow of Chicago gives the secretary of the treasury the option of two methods of issuing the half dollnr pieces to bo used for admission fco pur poses at the fair. Ono method is to pur chase five million dollars' worth of sil ver bullion by the issue of treasury notes and the coinage of the bullion into souvenir pieces. This hus the advantage of making no draft upon the cash bal ance in the treasury , for the printed paper would pay for the bullion. It Is urged In opposition to the plan that it would bo strictly a flat measure , be cause the paper would have no basis of coin or bullion after the coins had been issued , slnco they are to bo moro sou venir pieces not intended for general circulation. Another proposition em braced l > y the measure is the coinage of the worn fractional silver currency In the treasury by a suitable appropriation to cover the cost of coinage. The objec tion to this is that it would represent a reduction of the cash balance in the treasury by just the amount rocoined , since it is BO mueh available money in the treasury as It now stands. The only serious question raised in treasury circles is whether the coina is sued under either of the pinna proposed will actually bo in demnna as souvenir pieces , or whether they will ultimately find tholr way back into the hanile of the government. But there appears to bo no Borlous opposition to the idea of isBuincr the coins asited for and it is probable that the llrst of the two plans suggested will bo adopted. THEY ARE TRUK TO HILL , . The delegates to the democratic na tional convention from Now York who were appointed by the memorable Feb ruary convention remain true to the cause of David Bennett Hill. There have been reports of defection nmong them. Before the May convention in the interest of Mr. Cleveland's candi dacy it was said that some * of the Hill delegates were manifesting a disposition to abandon him , and since that conven tion it has been alleged that a number of them were certain to desert the cause of Hill before the Chicago convention assembled. They wore prepared to go to Flower , to Whitney , to Gorman , the various reports stated. There was no truth in any of them. The evidence of this is In the action of n mooting of the delegates hold Mon day evening , at which it was resolved to adhere to the pledge to present the name of Senator Hill to the national convention nnd to "voto for him until ho is nominated or ns long as ho will permit his nnmo to go before the con vention. " Seventy of the seventy-two delegates were present , and there was but ono vote against the resolution. The regularly chosen delegates from Now York to Chicago , whom it is not seriously doubted the national conven tion will seat , uro thus shown to bo solid for Mr. Hill and determined to consider no compromise so long as ho is in the field , the question of his remaining there to bo decided by himself. The senator made no mistake in the selec tion of his supporters , so far aa relates to the question of loyalty and dovotloa to his interests. These men represent the nggroaslvo , fighting element of the Now York democracy , and their deliberate ) resolve to firmly adhere to the man of their choice for president so long ns ho shall ask ihoir support will Imvo u decided Inlluonco. It is a distinct mmouucomont of unchangeable hostility to Mr. Cleve land , nnd it will tend for ono thing to confirm the opinion of Mr. Wuttorson and other lenders that it would bo fatal to the party to nominate either of the Now York candidates. It gives re newed assurance of a hard and bitter flglit at Chicago , with the probability that whatever the result the Empire state will be most promising lighting ground for the republicans. IT IS reported that a deal has-boon practically closed by which the Illinois Central bocomoa the owner of the Louisville , Now Orlotina & Toxaa rail road for ? 25,000,000. The deal will bo a good thing for the atato of Illinois , it la claimed because it will increase the cnrnlngs of the Illinois Central , upon which thb atato receives 7 pur cent. THIS order from the War department which sends fourteen troop1 ! of cavalry from the Department of the Plutto to the scene of the cattle war in Wyoming scorns to Indicate u determination on the part of the government to prevent any further lawless ncta in tliat quarter. There lias of latcu bpun n lull In the hostilities there , tinCU ia expected that they will bo resumed in.n worse form than before upon the opening of the roundup season , which la noweWson.t hand , tlccon scones of bloodehod Wyoming \ have shown that vigorous measures nro nocoj- sary to repress the warlike spirit of the mailers nnd the ca\tlo owners who have taken the wnr Into Choi" own hands. Doubtless some IHes'shcrlficod ' In recent encounters botwdon' ' 'these ' men might have been Btivod1 If'tho troops now Ordered into Wyom'lh'Jj had boon on the ground n few weolts ago. The force that has boon ocdorcdjjthonco ought to bo fully adequate to juoot all emergencies. Tim earl of Lonsaalo is the most prominent patron of prize-fighting In England , nnd ho is also n patron of thirty- eight church livings. When ho is not too busy with pugilism ho is considering the claims of preachers who wish to bo appointed ns aplrltual guides in those numerous parishes. Lord Lonsdnlo appears to boll man of diversified tastes and abilities. In this country tie could hardly bo n patron o'f the prize ring and the church at the bnmo time. THIS oil kings evidently fool that the sufferers nt Titusvillo have some claims upon their sympathy. John D. Rocke feller , the president of the Standard Oil company , has authorized Iho relief com mittee to draw on him for $100,000.

Mr. Dopow is evidently in perihelion just now. BOSTON is profoundly shocked bacauso Bishop Phillips Brooks persists in wear ing a bob-tailed coat. This excitement is akin to that aroused by the mustache of Chief Justice Fuller. HohlniK Ills Ilrrnth. IVilmIe ( ! ) > Jii < l 2'lmc .

"One UrciU , Unalterable , 1'lnal Fact. " New York Suii. The proposition to nominate Grover Cleveland - land Is to oloot a democratic candidate with out the vote ot Now York. Now York's thirty-six electoral votes republican - _ publican , and a republican coos Into tho" whlto house on March < 4,1803. Now York's thirty-six electoral votes domocratlc , and the uoxt president is a democrat , providing ho runs well elsewhere. It Is the situation of 1834 and 18S3 un changed , except so far as the vote ot the now states maUos tbo task of the democracy a little harder now. The margin afforded by the now states naablos republican cipherers to figure out a possible combination by which tboy can lese Now York and oloot their man nevertheless. But Hiero Is no arithmetic that enables the democracy to dlsponso with the thirty-six votes of the Emplro state. They are abso lutely essential to democratic success. You may twist and turn the numerals of the table of states until your head swims ; this ono fact remains. You may pllo rainbow on rainbow until tbo western sky looks like Joseph's coat ; this final fact remains , To lese Now Vork for tbo democratic can didate Is to lese tbo election of 1893 ; and the proposition to nominate Urover Cleveland is a proposition to go Into the battle with Now York's thirty-six iadlspeniablovotes thrown away In advance.

Casper Mountain is about twenty mlloi long and six wldo and Is all slaked off into claims. Under the rules of the Casper Mountain min ing district n locator can take a claim 1,500 long by 000 foot wide and has 120 days to sink a discovery shaft. Most of tbo loca tors ot the best claims are poor men and de velopment goes nboad on a limited scalo. The llnd of last week is bringing to tbo field a great many men of capital , but tbo minors are so olatca over the last ilnd that they bold tholr claims a litlto high at tbo present so capitalists , not famil iar with mining , nro inclined to wait , think- Inir that the minors will get tired of mining ' .vltn their rude appliances and will lot thorn In on reasonable terms In a short tlmo. Several prospects bavo changed bauds tbo' last week and options have boon secured on no loss than fifty claims. Tbo town , is full of strannoN and times are lively in Caipor. Eadsvllle Is 7,000 loot above the sea and is coming to tbo front with all tbo glory and roar of u wido-a-wakecamp. Great things may bo expected nf Casper mountain when the mining properties got capitalists ahold of thorn.
