What a high opinion Ignatius has of himself and his political associated ! Tote to sure , Mr. Donnelly was not present at Philadelphia in 177ii , nor did ho see the convention that framed the federal constitution in 17S7. But how does this convention compare with the conven tions th.it nominated John U. Fremont , Abraham Lincoln or James A. Gar- llold'r1 WllKN will wo ever hoar the last of the U,0JO,000 ( tramp fake ?

One hundred and sixteen yo.ira ago today the fathers of the American re public declared their Independence of Great Britain and proolalnuJ a solf- evident truths that all 111211 are oro.UoJ equal an.l are endowed by their G.'cator with the right to life , llborty and the pursuit of happiness. July 4 , 1770 , there was laid Hie foundation of a now repub lic , destined to become the greatest na tion of the north and to exert an inllu- once upon the world in behalf of the rights of all peoples Infinitely greater than had ever been exorcised by any other nation , ancient or modern. This consummation w.is not the result of an impulse. It was the outcomn of a purpose deliberately formed and born of long years of tyranny , opn'osslon and wrong. Patiently the colonists had berne the abuses heaped upon thorn by Britisli kings and parliaments , appealing again and again for a redress of griev ances , only to have their toquosts treated with contempt and the wrongs from which they suffered increased. They were disposnd to bo loyal subject ? , but thla sentiment found no appreciation from the rulers of England and gradu ally it was destroyed by the force of accumulating oppressions. Then ensued the mightiest undertaking ever essayed and accomplished by men The courage , the patriotism and the sublime devotion to popular rights which distinguished the nction of the men who challenged England's power and for seven years battled against it until their purpose was attained are without parallel in human history. It is unnecessary to point out the magnillcont results of that action. These are before us , the wonder nn.l admira tion of the world , appealing to the pride and loyalty and patriotism of every American citizen , "und giving assurance that the republic , if the admonition and counsel of the men who founded it bo not disregarded , will eventually become the foremost nation of the earth in finan cial and commercial power , as it is already in its influence upon govern mental policies. No American who will rollect upon.wlmt has resulted from the action of the men of 1770 can full to fool that the people who enjoy the fruits of their courage and sacrillco cannot nay too much homage to their memories , and that the proper observance of the anniversary of the Declaration of Inde pendence is ono of the highest of patrio tic duties. Omaha will celebrate the day as she has never done before. The arrangements assure the finest parade ever soon here , or perhaps anywhere west of the Mississippi , and the night will bo illumined by a brilliant display of fireworks. The interest and enthusiasm of the occasion will certainly make it memorable in the city's history and will give Nobrii'jkuns another rotibou to. bo proud of their chlof city. IIAItMONl" IX A'KW YORK. Mr. Cleveland ought to pray to bo delivered from his friends. The Now York Times , which is his greatest organ , demands that Lieutenant Governor Shcehan shall bo bounced from the democratic party and that Chairman Murphy of the New York democratic state committee shall suitor the suuio fate. The 'limes s-iys that they are both "political blackguards. " Governor Flower , who belongs to the same Tam many bet , is not summarily ousted from the party by the paper quoted because , to use its own language , "It doesn't matter about Flower ; ho doesn't know any bettor. " It is pleasant to observe these signs of harmony and brothorlv love in the dem ocratic party. Tiio Cleveland men in Now York have claimed all along that there was nothing but solid unity in their state and that every democrat there was enthusiastic for the ticket. But "Billy'1 Sheohnn and Edward Mur phy , who have u largo inllucnco in the Empire state , are now mentioned an suitable men for expulsion , and the Now York ! /I' I'IM , which is certainly the most devoted if not the most powerful advo cate of Mr. Cleveland , is responsible for the suggestion that these strong chief tains of Tammany bo road out of the democratic party. As to the case of Governor Flower , who is excused on the ground that ho doosn't know any bettor , perhaps that is a matter requiring in vestigation. The governor should bo examined with the view of ascertaining whether ho really doijs not know any bettor than to bo unfriendly to the ox- prosldent. It Is evident that the democratic har mony in Now York is open to suspicion. 11IS3IAKf'/v'S aTTMUDK. The latest reports bay tlrvt Prince Bis marck has put hinibclf completely out of imperial favor , and that ho has como to bo regarded as a firebrand menacing the pencil of Europe. The suggestion that ho may bo p-CBOcutuu : doubtless is without foundation , since any such pro ceeding would cull out a popular resent ment which the government might IIml exceedingly troublojomo. The recent enthusiastic dumonstr.itlo.is by the people ple on the ox-chancellor's progress through Ctornviny shows In what great esteem ho is still hold , an-1 It would un doubtedly bo dangerous for the govern ment to .iilumpt to punish him for his uttarancos however irritating and mis chievous they miy bo. * The fiMiikness with which Bisnrirck has orltk'isod the CJUMJ of the govern muni w.is very likely imprudent. . Tlionuip'jnir li'is doubtless known all along that "tho man of bloj.l an.l Iron" did not adiini-j his nnthods , but this would not have miUorotl hid Bis.n.irclc kept quiet. It will bj rotnjinbjrod that u bho.'t tinu ujyo he g.u'o u Gorman iiowsiupor an oUjnJud intjrvlow , in which lu crltloisod tliu fo.-olya policy of the omuro. ' . Ho s ild , umj.i ether things , thitaftar Wi Hum's fruillosj visit to the war at Narva he consented toC.uinjjllorOinrivl'd groj.tjjt error the broikln , ; of every link that bound Gnrmuny and Uussln. Then followed a pollcjy of friendliness ta the Poles , thro.itoning Russia with u Polish legion in the event of war , and with a now kingdom of Poland In oisu of Russian dofoat. The ubsrtlvo Interview with the czirut Narva WM i njullaljly foi- lowed by the Emperor \VIUI am'u visit to England , and by the uoirolluUou of tha East African treaties , which could only bo rogurdoil in an unfriendly dontonstra- tlon uguiust Russia. All this naturally resulted in the visit of the French llact to Cronst.ult. it jforrlng to the in inner in which ho had bion driven from olllco , Bismarck expressed a very slljiht opin ion of the abilities and chur.ictoi * of his successor , Count vo i Clprlvl. This candid arraignment of what ho believed to bo the mlsUkos of the gov ernment naturally aroused the resent ment of thoomporor and his chancellor , and they have lost no onpoi'tunltv to lot it bo known th it they uro Intensely bitter toward the nvin whoso great genius and Indomitable will created the Gorman omplro. This fooling is doubtless - loss natural in the circumstances , but the emperor and C.iprivl ought to see that they will not help their cause by relentlessly pursuing Bismarck , and to undertake to punish him for his utter ances might imperil the empire , for it is evident that Bismarck enjoys a degree - greo of popularity at least us great as that of the emperor himself. As to the wisdom or uroprioty of the ox- chancellor's course opinions will bo dlvidod , but his right to erltitHso the government will not bo questioned except by those who are the objects of his criticism. Perhaps the worst that can ho said of his conduct is that it betrays a weakness which ho was not supposed to have , that of disparaging others as a means of commending him self. But no one will doubt the loyalty and patriotism of that wonderful man , whoso place in history neither Emperor William nor Cliaucollor von Caprivf can hope to rival. The man who es tablished Gorman unity and whose statesmanship for years completely dominated Europe may bo silenced , but ho will still bo the grandest character that Germany has produced. A suauKSTiux 'io TIIK Among the thousands of visitors now in Omaha there must bo many who have never before had an opportunity to see this part of the great west , and no doubt a majority of the southern and eastern delegates to the people's convention have no personal knowledge of the western country. They have read about it and perhaps they have cherished the idea of visiting it some time , but they have never done so before. ' Most of those visitors uro interested in the convention and will devote their time to it while its sessions last , but It is hardly to bo supposed "that they will nil start for homo immediately upon its adjournment. Many have como long distances into a country that lias here tofore boon as a sealed book to thoin , and now that they are hero it is to bo hoped that they will take a good look at Omaha and the great state of Nebraska , not to mention ether cities and states worth ribitlnjr , which may bo reached at small expense of money and time. When the convention is ever the vis itors will bo at llborty to give a little attention to ether matters , and it will bo natural for them to ask themselves and ono another what conditions and causes have conspired to produce a great and prosperous city like ours upon a spot that was beyond the con- lines of civilization only a few years ago. Lot thorn look at the sources of this growth and development before returning to their distant homos. A short trip into the interior of the state will bo pleasant at least , and possibly it may bo prolltable. The citizens of No- braslca are hospitable and \\ill welcome them wherever they go. A little time devoted to sight-.seeing and investiga tion in Omaha and the surrounding country will not be wasted. THKUK can bo no bettor campaign ar gument for the republican party than the commercial report of the R. G. Dun agency for the fiscal year just closed. It says : "A llscal year , never matched in the whole history of the country in industrial production , in magnitude of domestic changes or foreign trade , has just closed. The imports for the year have been about . * ; i3H,000,000tho increase at Now York in Juno ever last year being - ing about 18 per cent. Exports from Now York gained 15.4 per cent and the aggregate for the year has boon about $1,027,000,000. R-ulroiid earnings have been the largest in any year thus far , and clearings in Juno the h'.rgost ever known in that month , exceeding last year 8 per cent , and for the whole year the largest ever known outside of New York. Failures for the half-year have boon oCOi ; , ngaiiibt 0,071 in 1601 , and lia bilities , $02,000,000 , against i)2,000i)0 ! ) ( ) ) , and , on the whole , about the smallest for live years. In spite of low prices additional works are going into opera tion , oven in the iron manufacture , and yet more In woolen and cotton. More over , the crops of this year promise to bo very satisfactory , and the new half- year begins with excellent prospects. " What brighter prospects could this na tion have in material prosperity ? Why this Omaha convention ? Thrun iif u Klnil.

PO/.V7V * O.V AlJim.lMf.t J'Of.TTIUS. The gubernatorial race is beginning to bo interesting. Two or tbroo now "possibilities" are said to have sprung up lu Omaha on the presumption that Dr. Mercer has withdrawn 'iron ) the Held. Hon. Lorenzo Crounso Is talked of as a dark horse , but If General John C. Cowln would ncccipt the nomination ho would carry oil the prize almost without opposition. _ A rumor has gnTiie'd co'nslaorablo currency among the politicians to the effect that Senator Ptuldouk has declared ho will not be a candidate for ro-elsotlon. This rumor Is a little wild and lacks confirmation. There is a possibility that it hud its origin in the fact that o new republican dally biu-boeu started nt Ucatrico which , old Dame Humor- says , was born lor the exp'ressl'purposdto lighting the senator in his own home. , The starting of the Nova nt Beatrice over the grnvo of the Dally Democrat has removed - moved from active r.uwspipor work ono of the brightest editorial writers in ttio state , Cicorgo P. Marvin. Now , however , Marvin can uovoto all his titco and attention to in- Hating his boom for the democratic nomina tion for lieutenant governor. The republican congressional convention of the First district has boon called to moot at Nebraska Uity , on ThursJny , July 2S. The aspirants for the nomination now have cnly a little ever throe weeks to fix up their fences , and they will probably not bo scon In Omaha so frequently until after the light is over. _ Frank \V. Boggs of ISlnir , who has been appointed register of the Nollgli land ofllco to .succeed Judge Robertson , has been a clerk in the land ofllco and his appointment Is therefore In the Una of civil service reform. Senator Collins of Gage county , whoso career in the last legislature is well Known , has left tbo Independent party and joined the democrats. Tbo two leading candidates for the inde pendent congressional nomination in tbo Fourth district are said to bo I. D. Chamberlain - lain and William II. Uoch. The spoils-hunting democrats in the First district who huvo been depending on Bryan to glvo thorn n ] ob "when the democrats como into power , " nro grief stricken because they realize that , should Cleveland bu elected , Bryan will have no influence with the administration.

The free silver democrats nro not at nil Im pressed with Mr. Bland's ability ns n loader nud n movement was on foot today to tnko the generalship of tbo light out ot bis hands. It Is urged thnt Mr. Bland has none ot the qualities of n loader on the floor ot the houso. Ho Is intoloinnt of all opposition and tins come to regard himself so completely ns the only nnd original author of Iron silver legis lation among the democrats that bo regards with Impatience the suggestions of other nnd younger mon who hnvo como Into tbo house Einco his timo. ll s conduct during the Inat frou silver fight topothor with his vnry passionate and Indiscreet utterances regarding Sneaker Crisp after tbo Bland bill was defeated have niiide him objectionable to the speaker and his friends nnd the free silver men therefore bollovo that It will bo the wiser policy to keep Mr. Bland himself as much In the back ground as possible.

The new lender of the silver movement will bo Mr. Pierce of Tennessee , n congress man comparativolv young in experience , but quick ana energetic , well sullied lu parlia mentary tactics nnd of sufficient popularity nmong all bin colleagues te become their recognized lender. Ills resolution of Saturday to amend the bouse rules so that tbo bill may bo passed by a majority instead of n two-thirds vote , shows thnt ho proposes to play n bold game nnd stake the whole issue on ono throw. It was reported today that the republican in em bers ot the house would offer no opposition to the bill , as they were desirous of having their democratic associates put thcrasolvos aqtmroly on rocora ns favoring free silver. But this report is denied by General Tracy and ether anti-silver loader ; ) . It is true thnt n number of the republicans wish to sco the domocr.its placed in nn om- barnsslng position before the country , but ox-Sponkor Heed Insists thnt the principle of opposition to free silver is very much more important than nny temporary advantage which may bo secured by placing the opposi tion "lu the hole. " Mr. Hood's influences are likely to prevail , as they are in line with the well known desires of President Harri son , so that tbo silver mon will not bo able to count upon the assistance of the republi can minority.
