Freight rates are high thoao days. IK IT is true that the Chicago audience And gallery nominated Lincoln in I860 , It la the only good thing a convention gallery over did. A QRKAT many distinguished demo cratic leaders nnd papora would lilo to nnd something to take that bad taste out of their mouths.

THE dead , tired fooling which por- V/'Jes the editorial pages of the New fork Jlerald and the Sun slnco the ' 'claimant's" nomination demands the use of some popular spring tonic. THIS election of Johnson Brigham , ed itor of the Cotlar Rapids Republican * as president of the Iowa League of Repub lican Clubs was a most happy choice. Mr. Brigham is u scholar and an orator. WITH reference to the city hall furni ture job , the council is just now giving sn object lesson to prospective boodlors. The effect of tbo council's notion is to demonstrate that honesty is the best policy. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ IT is very evident indeed that the city hall furniture contractor must abide by the contract specifications or move his atuff out of the building. The city offi cials do not propose to bo trilled with in this matter. IT WILL , bo Interesting for Editor Dana to note that the Atlanta Conslilu- lion , also , is supporting the Chicago ticket.

Tnic democrats Boom to bo very glad that Mr. Clarkson has rut I rod from the chairmanship of the republican national committee. They will probably bo equally glad when his uuccossar retires. AH a matter of fact the democrats are always glud when any republican retires from any position. tiKUHASKA AND THE SU'OAlt TIIUST. The prospect for n moro oxtonnlvo cultivation of the sugar boot In Ne braska Is good. The development of this young Industry In thlo state has boon very rapid during the past few years nnd has attracted wide attention. Two largo factories are turning out sugar of the highest quality from the bocts grown upon Nebraska soil , nnd the possibilities of sugar making being lim ited only by the possibilities of beet growing , it is evident that the business may bo extended indefinitely in a ru- glen so admirably suited to it as Ne braska Is admitted to be. It has boon shown by reports from the Agricultural department that among the samples of boots received from various states the highest coefficient of purity was found in those from Nebraska. The proportion tion ot sugar In the beets grown in this state Is It per cent greater than In these of Germany , and the natural produc tiveness of our soil Is such that it gives the boot groworn hero a great advantage in the competition with these of the old world , who are obliged to report to ar tificial fertilizers to an extent which offsets the dllToronco in the cost of labor. The sugar factories of Nebraska are turning the products of her boot ( Jolda into roflnod sugar , and doing the work well. This Is as It should bo , and the manufacturing facilities should bo ex tended with the growth of the boot growing industry , as it doubtless will bo. Touching upon this phase of the subject , the Now York Comwrchil Dutlctin has the following : In commenting upon the question , now bolng agitated by these who huvo taken up the culture ot sugar boots in Nebraska , whotbor they ougbttooroctratinorics as wall as fnatorlos'for the production of raw sugar , or the latter only , VVlllott & Gray say , In their "Statistical : " "Wo do not like to BOO the opportunity for prolltablo ooot root agrl- oulturo In nearly every state In the union lost to our farmers by tbo present Undirected efforts. Abandon the effort to build up the industry oy ocot root sugar refining anil limit It to boot root sugar agriculture , and It must succeed , " If the growers of boot roots and the manu facturers of raw boot root suear In Nebraska will ngreo not to oroot refineries , Wlllott & Gray declare that the sugar trust "will con tract for It" ( raxv boot root susar ) "now at tbo market v&luo of similar sugar at the time of delivery In 1893 , and will commence work ing their larsa rollnary In St. Louis just as soon ns a six months' supply can bo givan thorn from any or all of the boot root produc ing states. " The journal quoted labors under a slight misapprehension upon ono point. It UHSumos that the idea of erecting ro- flnorios in Nebraska haa not yet been put into actual practice , whereas the truth is thit : all the boots grown in this state arc made into rafined sugar hare. Elsewhere in the sixmo editorial the Commcrci'aZ fiullelin says : Wo do not bollove that the beet root growers and raw sugar manufacturers of Nebraska will accept this ad vino. In fact , there is no greater monaco to the success of beet root sugar culture in the United States than the sugar trust Unless the raw sugar manufacturers shall bo able to put their sugar upon tbo market ready for consump tion they will bo at tbo mercy of the sugar trust. Thcro Is now but ouo buyer of raw sugar in the United States , and the farmers of Nebraska hava but to observe the history of the Standard OU trust to coo what their future will bo if forced to sell their sugar to the sugar trust only. This is very good counsel from an able source. Tbo sugar trust will eagerly covet the raw product of Nebraska , and if the present rate of increase in beet culture hero is maintained it will soon bo a product worth reaching for. But there are no signs of any tendency on the part of the Nebraska farmers to play into the hands of the sugar trust. There is no reason why they should do so. As matters now stand they have nothing to gain by seeking to place the refilling business entirely In the hands of this giant monopoly , There Is plenty of money and enterprise < in this state to provide as many sugar refineries as the growth of the beet producing industry may demand , and the local pride of our producers will load them to encourage the homo manufucturor rather than to promote any interest of such an octopus as the augar trust. The time may not bo far distant when the sugar refineries of this stiito will bo among Its greatest industries. Nebraska for Nebraskans , and may the sugar business grow ! ItUUUis FUIt TUB 110MKSKUKERS. Two homeseoking excursions will come to Nebraska this year , ono on August 30 and the other on September1 27. It is a common practice in ovecy now and fresh settlement to present highly colored inducements to eastern people who are seeking to bettor their condition , and notunfrequontly a severe penalty Is paid for excessive booming when the deceived homesookor pulls up his utitKos and moves away , leaving these who have expected to become sud denly rich by inflated real estate values to mourn and find fault with the hard deoroas of fata. Nebraska passed beyond the experi mental period many years ago. Among the states west of the Mississippi it ranks as an old common wealth. It is not a field that invites the adventurer. It otTers no inducement to the devotees of happy chance. There is no such thing as gambling upon the future of this stato. With this jilaln Blutomunt as an introduction , THK UKH vantuios to suggest thut the thousands of cltl- citlzuns of Nebraska who have friends In the oust cannot butter show their In terest in them than by asking them to join one of these homcaooklng oxcur- oions and tuke a look at this state , in- vobllgating ita vast resources and esti mating its unlimited possibilities. It is a curious fact that millions of eastern people whose nmteriul condition could hardly bo worse than it is nro wholly Ig- norantof the opportunities hero olTored them , if they have heard of these op portunities they have imagined that some one. was trying to practice upon their urcdu.ity. ' Thorn Is u vast amount of room , n No- bninUu. Tiiuro Is ample space for the farmer , the tradesman and the manu facturer. It la not necessary that thu homesoekor should bo n moro tiller of the boil. With ouch yoar'a development of tbo rich resources of the state a wider field la opened for every form ot human activity. Lot the cltlzena of Nebraska Invite their eastern ( Honda to join one of those / * homcBoeking excursions nnd pay them a visit. In any ovunt it can do no harm , and perhaps it may effect a great improvement In the condition ot Bomo who nro now struggling for existence in the thickly populated oast. . Visitors are always welcomed hero. T1JK SKI } ' SKCttRTAtlV Uf STATK. General John \V. Foster was yester day appointed secretary of state by President Harrison and the nppolnt- mont was promptly confirmed by the sunnto. General Foster's diplomatic experience fits him for the position. Ho luis boon minister to Russia , Moxlco nnd Spain and had .a great deal to do with nutrotintlng the reciprocity arrangement with the lattoi' country. Ho has also represented the State department in the negotiation of other reciprocity agree ments , and no ono has a moro thorough knowledge of that policy. Ho has been under the present administration the diplomatic attorney of the State department - mont , und In that relation has proved himself a most nblo and useful olllcial. General Foster is said to bo entirely fa miliar with every phase of the Boring sea controversy , and as the arbitration is near nt hand his counsel will bo Im portant and valuable. Besides his ox- tonslvo experience In diplomatic affairs , the now secretary of state is a lawyer of superior attainments. Ho enjoys the full confidence ot the president and la in complete harmony with hla views on all the subjects with which the State de partment has at present to deal. He is to bo credited to Indiana , although for a number of years a roaldont of the Dis trict of Columbia. The State department under the pres ent administration has received a larger share of the attention of the president than has boon usual. During the pro longed illness of Mr. Blalno the affairs of the department wore closely looked after by President Harrison , and it is a well known fact that a great deal of the correspondence in the Boring sea matter ter- and the Chilian controversy eman ated directly from the president. It is altogether probable that the prcsidant will continue to devote a great deal of attention to the department and to per sonally direct its utterances upon all matters already under consideration or which may hereafter arise. Himself an able lawyerwell versed in international law and evidently having a taste for diplomatic discussion , President Harri- risen will undoubtedly continue to glvo close attention to our international re lations and to glvo direction to the for eign policy of the government so far aa ho has authority. In view of the very successful manage ment of international affairs , largely due to the attention and interest of the president , the country is warranted in expecting that the excellent record al ready in ado will bo maintained , regardless - loss of who is at the head of the Depart- montof State , and this without disparag ing in the slightest degree the experi enced and nblo diplomatist who now oc cupies that position. General Foster is in every way qualified for the important duties of secretary of stato. Indeed , there is probably no man in the country bettor equipped for them , and unquestionably he will fully maintain the high standard of the loading cabinet ofllco. STBVBKSOK HAS Alf ISSUE. The democratic candidate for vice president , Adlal E. Stevenson , has an issue which 'ho considers to bo more momentous than all others. It is the so-called force bill , the measure intro duced in the Fifty-first congress provid ing for free und fair federal elections in every state of the union. Mr. Stevenson has boon interviewed by a representative of the New York jSuii , to whom ho said that while the tariff issue is more important than the faUvor issue , moro Important than both is the ' and force . " 'despicable dangerous .bill. This , in the opinion of the gentleman whoso political distinction rests upon the fact that ho put some 50,001) ) democrats in fourth class postolllcos in the place of republicans , is the main issue , and ho remai ked that "it is so far-reaching in Its consequences that its importance cannot bo over-estimated to the people of the southern states and to the people pleof the country. " Ho declared that sucli legislation wouiu destroy the peace , prosperity ana happiness of the people of the south , and assorted as a fact of personal knowledge that the negroes in the southern statea are us well treated as the whites on election day , und have little if any cause to complain. The reason for the professed fear on the part of the democratic candidate for vice president and some others of hU party that in the event ot republican success there might bo legislation ta so- euro every where a free ballot and an honest count Is found in the plank of the republican platform which domanda "that every citizen of the United States shall bo allowed to cast ono free and un restricted ballot in all public elections , and that such ballot shall be counted and returned as cast , " and which de clares thut "the free and honest popular ballot , the just and equal representation of all the people , as well as their just and equal protection under the laws , are the foundation of our republican institu tions. ' ! la there anything alarming in this ? IB there anything Jn the demand and the declaration that any patriotic citi zen , honestly desiring that every ether citizen , while or black , shall bu aecuro in the enjoyment of the most essential und valuable right of cltl/onshtp , can not cnuorauV And if it bo a fact , us all well-informed men know it to bo , thut 1,000,000 of cltlzeim are not permitted to freely oxorcUo this right , guaranteed by the constitution ot the country , is it not the duty of the political party which has always Insisted upon a , free and honodt ballot to take notice of the fact unit to demand thut the wrong 1 > Q remedied ? The republican party would bo faithless to it * character and ita tra il it lout ) if it were to ignore the fact of a largo body of citizens bolng deprived of their sovereign right of suffrage at every federal election , and the party will forfeit Us claim to the confidence ami support of patriotic and fttir-mlnded citizens whenever it shall cease to have the courage to denounce und protest ' against an injustice which mpnaeos 're publican institutions nnd is n reproach to the nation. Mr. Stevenson will hardly succeed , even with the valuable a latanco of the Now York SuitTii making itio so-called force bill a lending Issue in the cam paign. The democratic party tfill not bn allowed toovadntho Nsuo U husmnda against the system of American protec tion and In favor of free Undo , or lo dodge the fact that a very largo ma jority of the party are willing to debase I ho currency by opening the mlnta of the country to the free and unlimited coinage of silver. No subterfuge will bo permitted to Interfere wjth the full discussion of these Issues , and it matters - tors not which of thorn Is regarded ua the moro Important. The force bill may do service for the purpojo of keeping the south solid , but it cannot ho made to have any terror for the people of the north , The farmers , the business men and the groat-army of labor , who are deeply concerned in the growth of American industries , the extension of American commerce , and the maintenance of a sound and stable currency , will not have their attention dr.vwn away from the questions In which thuao conditions of national nr.igrosa and prosperity are Inv.olvod. But it is interesting to know that the democratic candidate for vice president , who In the event ot his election might roach the highest office In the republic , boltovos that it Is the first and greatest du.y of his party to antagonize the demand for p. froo. and honest ballot in every Bcotlon ot the country. WHIN Governor McKInley said in his Now York speech that tha bilUon-uollur congress , which the democrats say BO much about , was really a two billion- dollar congress , ho opened the oyoa of his audionco. It was a two billion-dol lar congress , ho said , because under the operation of the laws which It passed our domestic trade increased-a billion dollars and our foreign trade amounted to a billion and twenty million dollars , the ilko of which was never known in American history. The republican party can very well afford to go before the country upon such a record aa that. The democrats said that this tariff law would be prohibitive and that It would neither lot us out nor lot ether coun tries in , and ynt it ia plainly shown that this country never in its history hud such a trade before. The republican system of duties upon foreign Importa tions seems to have worked very well since the McKInley law was put into effect , and those who have studied its results without prejudice will vote for a coutinuniico of .tho same policy. THE thousands of people 'who will como to Omaha next week , most of whom will ronroin hero several days , will leave a largo amount of money In the city. This will not bo expended wholly for accommodations. Most of them will lake this opportunity to pro vide thems.olveSeW.yh manyrthings not readily to bo "pbjainod at their homos and which theV J3an'Mgot "hero moro cheaply. Hundreds of thomi will look about for the s'uporlor-barga'ins which Omaha can offer. It fa" presumed that our wideawake merchants fully appreci ate this , and that they wifl.mprovo | so excellent an opportunity to apprise the visitora of what they have worthy of their attention. Next week can hardly fall to bring large rewards to these business men who attract the attention of the people by liberally advertising their goods. Tim IVorld-HerdltllB frothing at the mouth because the authorities have , in response to a public demand , voted in significant sums of money to help moot the expense of a befitting celebration of the Fourth. Had .not the national con vention couie to Omaha on Independ ence day there probably woula have been less of an effort to make the cele bration a notable one. But an exigency has arisen and it Is th.6 duty of this city to make some demonstration In keeping with the two great events. It ia-truo there is no authority in law for the ap propriation of these small sums , and it is no loss true that there should bo pro vision made to cover the necessary ex pense of public entertainments and cele brations. THK course ot true political love does not always run smooth in the royal cir cles of Europe. The betrothal of Crown Prince Ferdinand of Iloumuniu to Princess - . cess Marie of Edlnburg is the cause of u great deal of trouble. Every day or two Princess Marie receives an old love letter sent by the crown prince to Mile. Helen Nerasco , whoso love affair with him created a sensation and a decided political disturbance in Roumanian pol itics some time ugo. American lovers have u great deal loss trouble than these connected with the royal families of Europe. AiiKANdKMENTS for accommodating visitora to Omaha during the session of the people's parly 'convention next week nro about complqte'jji , and the committee liiis no doubt that everybody will bo pro'perly taken cnVo of. Private families desiring guests -crtn secure them by ap plying to the committee , whoso head quarters ia undt/r / the Millard hotel. The Indications art ) .that there will bo moro people in Omaha next week than have over been na o before at ono time , and they will all-.bq entertained' .

Com petent judges declare that Omaha haa never uoon called upon to entertain aa grout u number ot people us will cer- tuinly visit us next week.

Every laboring man can BOO that the movement they favor would do moro damage to the worklngmon than nil the Chinese or contract laborers on earth. OMAHA has boon selected as the next meeting place ot the grand lodge of the C. S. P. S. of Ne braska , which has just closed Us session at West Point. The lodge does not moot again for four years , hut none the loss Omaha appreciates the favor shown It , and \vo can safely glvo the assurance that the city will then ho even moro attractive than it Is now.
