ENGLISH mobs have boon holding high carnival lor a few dnya past. A politi cal meeting In that country without a riot and a few broken heads is not a complete success. MANY of the delegates to the Coll- otim convention are still in the city , and it is pleasant to hear their words of prniso for Omaha and tlio entertain ment which they have received. THK price of hogs is still rapidly climbing skyward and it Is predicted that $ (1.00 ( lioga will bo bought hero in Omaha in a few days. This is dis couraging for the calamity party.

Some weeks ago n resolution was In troduced in congress providing for an investigation of the 1'lnkorto.i detec tive Fystom , with n view to ascertaining 5ta character and whether any action Is necessary by congress to regulate its operation in the various atulea of the union. The resolution was referred ton committee , and nothing has olnco been heard of it. The donlornblo occurrence at Homestead , I'enn. , for which the em ployment of the Plnkorton mercenaries appears to bo directly responsible , will undoubtedly direct the attention of con gress to the proposed investigation and prompt action is to bo expected If it bethought thought that the matter Is ono of which congress can properly take notice. It is remembered that the objection was raised to the resolution at the tlmo of its introduction that the subject was outside the authority of congress and could only bo dealt with by the states individually , but if this position bo sound it does not necessarily prevent an investigation which would onnblo the country to obtain a correct knowledge of the syHlem under which bodies of men are recnUlcd by n private agency , amii'il with deadly weapons and sent on demand to any part of the country. The public has no knowledge as'to whether tlio Pinkerton system has a , legal stntua or Is operating independent of nil law. It is obviously important to know how this is , and what is the re sponsibility of an agency that holds itself ready at all times to furnish a force of armed men and send them to any point in the country where they may bo called for. It is porlinont to Inquire whore the authority Is derived from which permits a few men to maintain u private army available at all times for police or other service in any state of the union. It is desirable to know which of the states , if any , has given to this detective agency the right to go whore it will and hire and arm Irresponsible men for the purpose of invading other stale" , usurping the functions of the local authorities and ovorawoing anil shooting down citizens. The public most naturally desires in formation on all these points , and it ought to have it. The congress , repre senting the whole people , is properly regarded as the source from which the information should bo provided , and it has at its command the best means for securing it. It nriy not have the power to suppress the system or regulate its operation , nut it can ascertain its methods and express an opinion as to whether or not it is a system hostile to the rights of the people and dangerous to public peace and order , and if it bo not competent to do more than this the people will then know how to proceed. Manifestly something must bo done. Toleration of a system which can pro duce such a state of affairs as exists in the I'ittsbnrg iron districts must inevit ably encourage the organization inovoiy part of the country of bands of armed mercenaries , until the country will swarm with men ready at a moment's notice , at the instigation of anybody who can pay them , to trample on the rights of the people and commit outrages in the name of law. The bloody business at Homestead is certain to arouse popular hostility to the Pinkerton system as it has never been aroused before , and there will bo a demand for action to suppress the hystom which will not b6 ignored. TIII ; HKMocn.icv AND .1 j'o/f//ov i'ufn r. The democratic platform contains no moro impudent declaration than this : "Tho democratic party is the only party that has over given the country a foreign policy consistent and vigorous , comuolling respect abroad and inspiring confidence at homo. " It is not necessary to review the entire history of the demo cratic party In order to show the false proteiiM ) of this claim. It will bo quite sufficient to refer to the record of the last democratic administration regardIng - Ing a foreign policy. It wan during that administration that the controversy aro&o respecting the rights of the United States in Samoa. England and Germany were endeavor ing to obtain the control of the Samoan islands , involving a preponderance of inllnenco in the Pnelilo ocean. Tlio policy of Germany had been especially aggressive aud there was imminent danger of the success of her plans. The United States protested against the course of the Huroponn powers in the interest of the rlghu of this govern ment and of HH citl/enn in Samoa , lint this is as far as the Cleveland adminis tration wont. There was a prolonged discussion which promised no practical roHiilts , and it was not until the Harri son administration came in and took decisive stops that the mutter was brought to an honorable and satisfactory conclusion , securing home rule to Samoa and a guarantee ) of protection to all American rights and privileges thoro. The conduct of the Hoping sea con troversy was another striking o.vnmplo of the "consistent and vigorous" foreign policy of the democratic party. It would bo dllllcttlt to lind in the whole history of diplomacy a weaker and moro bungling and humiliating treatment of a most important issue than was that of the Cleveland administration in this caso. It did not go HO far in its timid and vacillating policy as to 'quite destroy the American position , but it did impair it , and had that administra tion baon continued In power wo should prob.ibly have nothing now to contend for. Everybody familiar with the hiw- lory Dt this controvory will rumumlior the humiliating nttltnd ; In which the country w.is placed by the feeble olTorts of Sourol'iry HnyarQ and the arrogance naturally as-mined in the clrcitinstimuos by the Mi-itish government. It was with a sense of slmino that American cltlzons wore compelled to confess that either our case was inde fensible or that the administration was incapable of defending it , The situa tion was bpocdlly changed , however , after the Harrison udmlnibtr.itlon took hold of the controversy. The Hrltlsh government did not long maintain its supercilious hearing , and thn result was that it agreed to bubmll the questions in controversy to arbitration and entered - torod Into an arrangement to put u slop moan while to poaching in the waters over which the United States claims jurisdiction. It need hardly be naid that thacourjo pursued by the Cleveland nilminstation [ could never have secured - cured these concessions. In no respect was the Irvst democratic administration loss worthy of commenda tion than in the management of our in ternational relations. Novnr in our his tory was the diplom tile department of llio government conducted with loss consistency and vigor than under Presi dent Cleveland. Never was our foreign policy less worthy of the dignity and honor of the country. It could not bo otherwise with a president who came into thnt great ofllco wholly ignorant of international relations and w'th ' a aooro- tnry of state who , while not lack'ng In the knowledge necessary to the duties of that position , was wanting in the linn- ness , the courage and ttio essential hearty sympathy with American inter ests which are necessary to create and carrv out a consistent and vigorous foreign policy. The failure of the Cleve land administration in this respect left an opportunity for its successor which it has improved to the gro.it advantage , to the honor and to the entire satisfac tion of the country. IIVMTrni \ , sfAxmr DO ABXT ; Henry M. Stanley , the unionist candi date for parliament in North Lambeth , one of the most populous districts In London , has been defeated , his liberal competitor having a-jcurod a majority of 1'iO , which is a reversal of about (500 ( votes since the last election. The fam ous explorer's defeat Is doubtless duo In some measure to his American antece dents. Ho was not English enough to suit the electors of the district. "Go back to America ! " was ono of the cries of the mob that brobu up the meeting on the occasion when ho and his wife were assaulted and had to lloo to cheapo bodily injury. Mr. Stanley is not a poli tician and did not know how to handle an English mob as Henry Ward Boeohor did in Liverpool thirty years ago. Even Mrs. Stanley's tact and charming por- Hu'iahty could not save her husband from defeat. No doubt there were numerous causes for the hostility to Mr. Stanley. The memory of the famous rear-guard episode has not yet died out in London , and this may have prejudiced his case. At all events his stormy can vass has boon a failure and ho will have to give up his now ambition. The disappointment of the explorer's English wife will naturally bo groat. It was by liur wish that ho stood for parliament. She wished him to turn his face away from Africa forever. Pos sibly this political disaster may again change the course of his lifo and turn his attention once moro to exploration and discovery. Ho hits the heroic qual ities of a general but lacks these neces sary for the successful politician. n.itiisn rni ; inxit The bloody conflict now in progress between the workingmen recently em ployed in the Pittsburg iron industries and the Pinkerton police cannot fail to arouse the people of this country to the fact that the employment of armed mer cenaries is at variance with the spirit of our frco institutions. In a republic like ours there can bo no place for hands of brutal hirelings mustered by corporate monopolies under pretext of defending their property from mob violence. The rights of proportv of the humblest individual are as sacred as * these of the most mighty corporation. Carnegie's great steelworks works are entitled to the sanu protec tion at the hands of the civil authori ties as the properly of any citizen of Pennsylvania when menaced by riot or outlawry. Carnegie and his associates had the right to call upon the civil authorities of Pennsylvania to protect their works from intrusion by their late omployos. It was their'duty llrst to call upon the sheriff of Allegheny county and the constabulary , and if the sheriff's force wore inadequate to oopo with the assai hints then they should have called upon the governor ol Penn sylvania to supplement the sheriff's force by militia. If the militia of Pennsylvania , were overpowered then' the governor of Pennsylvania would be in duty bound to call upon the president of the United States for fed eral troops. This i the only legal method of pro tecting property rights tinder our form of government. Every attempt to re sist mob violence by Pinkerlon merce naries is a subversion of the law and lias time and again proven itself to bo an incentive to bloodshed. Ours is a gov ernment of law aud order. The Pinker ton mercenaries are a relic of feudal barbarism , They are unropublicnn and undemocratic. They must bo outlawed and banished from this land by acts of congress and by state legislation. or The business failures in the United States for the first six months of the present year number u , { > 0.'l , as against 0,07-1 during the same period last year , showing a decrease of 671. The total liabilities of all the failures of the llrst six months of this year , ending on Juno 110 , are $011,0(10,000 ( , while for llio corresponding spending period lust year they were $ ! ) U,0IO,000 ( , which shows a decrease of $ , 'i,000,000. ( ) In the stnto of Nebraska during the six months just ended the total number of failures was 117 and the total liabil ities were $0iOll [ > 0. During the same period lust year tlicro were UOU failures in this Htnto and the total liabilities were $ l'JiOIOO. ; ! In IB'.IO there were during the llrst six months " 02 failures , the same number as In the correspond ing period of 1S02 , but the liabilities were somewhat smaller , being only $7-13,100. U will bo soon that thot-o figures show a marked improvement this year in the prosperity of the stale. Thuy do not indicate merely the pros perity of these who are engaged in trade , for it la a recognl/.od axiom of InisinobH that the prosperity of the tradesman depends upon that of the people at large. It must bo so , for ho lives upon their patronage , and HUO- coeds or falls according to their ability to p : y their bills. When they are obliged to retrench In the matter of ox- poiibes , or cannot pay for what they buy , the tradesman becomes br.nkrupt. A natural law so plain and sunplo that no intelligent man can fail to comprehend it contro u the relations existing be- twnon the genoraijHublle and the trades man. Upon thls'iipnint there can bo no need of arcumon ' ' . It is worthy of jjo'lti that the liabilities of the failures ln"Nubraska ? average very small. Thi VorngO for the 11 pat ' half of this year is'only a little over $8,000 , which Is ufui-Ji smnllor than that of most of the states.In the union. The failures in Canada''and ' Newfoundland for the same per piT aver.tgo nearly $1,000,000 each , the total nmounj , of lia bilities being $8.280,005. The llguros presented prove that the country Is going f6t'ward and not back ward. It must bo rcmomborod that business enterprises ate constantly mul- tinlylng and therefore the total number of failures must inevitably incrcasn or else the condition of llio country must bo admitted to bo steadily and rapidly improving. Headers of this paper nro aware that there is an Increased acreage of all cereals in Nebraska thlfl year , that the crops promise well , ana that the condi tion of trade is bolter and collections easier than over before. In Omaha there Is an immense increase in the job bing trade especially , and the prospects for a largo fall trade wore never bolter than now. Facts and llguros nro very eloquent sometimes. They are always worthy of moro attention than the Idle vapor- ings of the Idealists and drenjnors who , paraphrnsinfr'-n line of Alexander Pope to suit their own purpose , declare that "whatsoever is is wrong. " It is not true that the country Is going to the dogs. TunitE are many straw * indicating the prosperity of the Nebraska farmer. Jobbing houses report that collections were never so good with country mer chants and some of the country banks have oiTorcd 0 per cent money to certain responsible business firms in this city. There is every evidence that Nebraska farmers are able to pay and are paying their debts. A prominent firm in this city , in lion of borrowing 0 per cent money offered , by somn of the savings banks in the state , has sola its bills re ceivable , farmers' 8 per cent paper , to country b'.inkors tit par. Two or three years ago most of the country banks would not touch such paper , and the few who did took it at 10 per cent and 15 per cent discount. If there is any stronger proof than this of the prosper ity of Nebraska farmers , Tin : Biu is yet to learn of it. THK city is threatened with another damage suit for injuries received from a dilapidated wooden sidewalk. It is remarkable - markablo that alter , all the effort which has been made to induce the authorities to put the sidewalks of the city in safe and Diissablo condition they continue to pay little or no attention to the matter. Such neglect and indifference rogardipg a demand In which every citizen is in terested is simply culpable. Wooden sidewalks at the , baft are not what a city like Omaha shouTd'havo , at any r.xto in the business and moro p6pulous portions of the city , but so long'as they are , ro- rotained'they should bo kept in safe .ana passable condition. A lioun complete and perfect job of bank looting neve- was done in this country than th.it by which the National Savings bank of Buffalo , N. Y. , was brought to ruin. It now appears that an examination of only one-half of the pass books reveals defalcations amounting to nearly half a million dollars. Thus far only the trilling sum of $33,000 has been turned in , in money and property , to off set the stealings. The rascals would have carried elf the building if they had been loft alone a little longer. THK inspector of the Board of Health reports that out of 100 samples of milk inspected twenty-one foil below the standard. This is a largo proportion of inferior milk , and' though it may not necessarily imply that the article below the standard was unwholesome it shows that a largo number of dealers are not dealing honestly with tlioir patrons , thus defeating ono purpose of the in spection regulation. Tlio remedy will doubtless bo found in a stricter enforce ment of the regulation. CITY ATTOII.VP.Y OONNHUJ is on the right track in endeavoring to recover the lands on the river front which llio Union Pacific lias unlawfully seized. The only conditious under which the company can legally hold any of tlio lands donated by our city or by our citizens - zons uro that these lands shall bo de voted lo trackage , union dopot. nmchino shop and transfer purposes. The com pany had no right to dispose of those lands to the water works or any other corporation. THK health of Omaha appears to bo exceptionally good. A record of sovonty-llvo deaths in a month in a pop ulation of 1-10,000 is a showing at this season of the year that it is safe to say cannot bo surpassed by any city in the country. Thoro''aro ' ether localities that boa'st of their healthful climate , but the evidence furnished by the morluarv record of Omnhpcprovos that there is no more hoallhfil ; clinmle anywhere in the country than'wo have here. Tin : wheat and tyo harvest has com menced in the southern part of tlio stale about as early as usual , but the corn har vest will be late Ihruughout Nebraska if the needed hot'woathor does not come soon , Corn is doing bolter In this stale than in Iowa , owing to moro favorable conditions liero in'tho planting season.

No\y it is for the property owners on the various strools to cheese between lake pitch and overllow asphalt on the streets to ho paved with asphalt tun. The cheapest is not always the bust.

MIIK-KU'S : emphatic denial of the rumor that ho had left the republican party to identify himself with the poo- nlc'a movement ought to set that matter at rest , The motto of the now party seems to bo "claim everything and everybody. " TltKlin nnpcars to bo no doubt what ever as to the immediate construction of the Ynnkton it Norfolk railroad. The contracts for the grading have been signed and tlio dirt will begin to fly before the close of the present week. AT Till- : risk of being considered world ly , wo wish to remark that wo hope that the most successful endeavor of the Omaha Christian Endonvorors in Now York will bo to secure the next national convention of thnt body at this place.

It could not be otherwise. How can wo expect n class which has never known what it is to work for n living to leg islate justly for a nation of people who are compelled to work lor a living !
