The recent conflict between citizens of
Wyoming and nn nrined force of in
vaders organized by stockmen gave the
now stnto nn unonvlnblo notoriety
throughout the country , but ullimnto
peed may result to Wyoming from the
discussion which that occuronco has
raised regarding the system that Is
responsible for it
Wyoming Is dlstlnctix-oly n cattle
state. The stock business Is the para
mount industry thoro. Comparatively
few men have contioiled Iho great
ranges of the state , and they have tint-
urnlly antagonized the conditions which
threaten the curtailment of tholr priv
ileges. The result bus bcon to retard
the progr.oss of settlement in Wyoming.
The feeling of the cattlemen Is expressed
in a sentiment ascribed to the secretary
of the Board of Live Stock Commission
ers , to the effect that "thoro are too
many men and too fo - cattle in Wyom
ing. " The increase of stock farms , duo
to the advent of u'considerable number
of settlers in certain districts , is re
garded with disfavor by the cattlemen ,
and it is claimed "thai the Introduction
of this new element into the situation
oxer ted tin important Influence in the
p'-octpllution of the recent unhappy ,
ovotrts.
The fm'fiation AyCi which has boon
giving close nnd careful attention to
Wyoming affaiis , in the July isstto
discusses the significance of the late
conllict , with conclusions not favorable
to the system which made it possible.
The AIJC points out that while there tire
but bovan states in the union larger
territorially than Wyoming , that state
stands forty-thiid in population , in
which respect it is also behind all the
territories. Yet the state is known to
have gieat resources , which nro not
only undeveloped but unexplored , with
the exception of coal , and tilt-o a. greater
available water supply and more irri
gable land than nny ether western state ,
with the possible exception of Montana.
Still it does not produce enough for its
own needs , and its agricultural character -
actor remains almost wholly to bo
worked out in the future. The reason
why Wyoming has not tulvaneed as
othorn states have is in the fact that
she has followed one industry almost to
the total exclusion of all others an
industry , remarks the Aye , "which
occupies the boil with cattle instead of
men , and , therefore , deprives the state
of the labor , the genius and the
aspiration of a large , growing and ad
vancing population. "
There can bo no doubt thnt the luno
is nt hand when the cattle business of
Wyoming must bo adjusted to now con
ditions , and when this is accomplished
the state will roali/.o ti greater progress
and u larger measure of prosperity than
it has yet known. With the develop
ment of all her resources , instead of eon-
lining the enterprise nnd energy of her
people to ti single industry , Wyoming
bhould in a few years take cqun.1 rank
with Colorado , Montana and Idaho. The
first practical stop to the attainment of
this position must bo the utilization of
her ample water supply for reclaiming
the arid lauds , of which it is estimated
thnt 10,000,000 acres can bo made avail
able lor agriculture.
KOT A I'AIITISAX I OXTHOVUllSl'
Not qulte nil of the newspapers
friendly to Graver Cleveland are dis
posed to make political capital for their
side out of the deplorable tragedy at
Homestead. The Now York JZvcniny
P < W , for example , makes a bitter attack
upon the strikers and sneers viciously at
their theory of worklngmon's rights ,
concerning which it says : "It is to bo
hoped that when the time comes for
maintaining them they will not bo re
stricted to operatives In iron mills , but
maao general , so that , for instance , if
the hired men on a farm or a cotton
plantation are not satisfied with their
wages , or if their employer discharges
them for any reason , they will have the
right to seize the farm and commit nn
assault upon the farmer's family. " The
Now York Sun , another journal which
happens now to bo a devoted advocate
of democracy , has this : "Thoro is noth
ing now to prevent the strikers at
Homestead from opening the great Car
negie plant on their own account. They
nro in full possession of the property ,
they hold their title from the governor
of Pennsylvania , and it only remains for
them to capture Carnegie and his part-
iiorb and force them to work as slaves in
managing the business. "
These nro only specimens of the senti
ments expressed by democratic news
papers upon this subjuitt. It is simply
absurd to argue from the Homestead
trouble , ns some have tried to do. that
the republican party is arrayed against
workingmen nnd that the democratic
party is on their sido. It is the rankest
domngogistn to hut up such n claim.
It certainly is not at nil to the credit
of the democratic party that the violent
outburst nt Homc&toad has been intensi
fied by the intemperate and foolish
utterances of the domocr.itlc press. The
affair is too borious to bo treated from a
partisan standpoint.

There is a hint to the Nebraska
farmer In the wonderful growth nnd
ptorient nnignliudoof the dairy intercuts
of what Is. Known as the Klgln district in
Illinois. When the Klgin Board of
Trade watt organised in 1872 only twelve
fuctoriofr wore represented. The product
that year was HO.T.'U pounds of butter
and ! ) ! ) , : ! f)0 ) of cheobo , L-ist year the
number of factories had incronbod to270
and their output was 2r > , OQUOJi ! pounds
of butter and ( ) .2i2-ll)2 ; ) pounds of ohoeso.
The value of the butter was S0,27201.87 /
and tl'tit of the cheese wan $ H)8GliO. ) ! ) ) :
But this Is not all , for the milk marketed
from this district lust year timountod to
$2-IOO)00 ( ) , making n grand total of
$0,171,101.1W aa the product of tv single
year.
year.Wo
Wo do not know the extent of the ter
ritory embraced in the Elgin district ,
but however largo it maybe it is evident
from the llguroa given that the dairy
interest must bo n loading one with the
farmers thoro. In Nebraska the dairy
buslno ! . * has never commanded the nt.
lontlon of the farmer * to any consldor-
tiblo extent. With unlimited grazing
lands ami good shipping facilities the
farmers of this stuto have nmdo very
little progi odd iu the direction of butter
ranking , a binitto's Ihnt is safe nnd sure
nnd requires but small outlay of capital.
To bo strictly Independent the farmer
should have numerous sources of income ,
nnd this Is one potiico thatcan never fall
him entirely under the most unfavorable
ronuMHous. There nro very few butter ,
makers In the t > tnto who employ scien
tific methods nnd appliances in their
dairies very few , in fnct , who give the
subject any serious attention whatever
This is clearly sliown by tno condition
in which their product often reaches the
Omaha market. It is moro essential in
the dairy business than in tiny other
that neatness should bo ot served
throughout the whole process of making
nnd marketing , nnd the maker who does
observe this prime essential is sure to
build up a reputation which will result
in increased demand nnd fancy prices ,
for his product. Instances of this could
easily bo pointed out by any one ac
quainted with the butter market in
Omaha ; but they nro too rare , nnd the
farmer should learn the important les
son that a prlmo artlcln is always In do-
tnand at good prices , while an inferior
article not only hurts the individual
producer , but has u damaging effect
upon the market generally.
It will take time to develop the dairy
possibilities of Nebraska. It will take
time to learn the business , which re
quire ? careful nnd intelligent manage-
incut , and the needed equipments for
successful butter making will no doubt
come slowly and by piecemeal. But
there is undoubtedly profit in it , and the
time will come when the splendid d'liry
possibilities of this state will bo devel
oped and when one farmer In a hundred
will not bo selling his dairy product for
double the price received by the other
ninety-nine.
TAKK CAKK OP 111K YlSlTOItS.
There nro many strong reasons why
Omaha bhould make tin effort to outdo
herself in hospitality on the occasion of
the mooting of the Nobles of the Mystic
Shrine , August HMO , and the visit of
the Knights Templar , who will stop ho re
at that time on their way to their tri
ennial conclave at Denver. It is ex
pected that the guests will number in
till at least 23,000 , and as they nro people
ple who tire accustomed to being well
taken care of it will bo necessary for
our citizens to moot , the demands of the
occasion in the best manner possible.
So far as the Shrinors are concerned the
local temple of the order has done
effective work in the way of prepara
tion , but its executive committee says
that the pcoplo of Omaha will have to
bo called upon for not less than $10,000
to properly entorUin the Knights
Templar. It is as important that the
latter should bo agronably impressed by
their treatment at the hands of the citi
zens of Omaha ns that the Shrinors
should bo handsomely entertained , for
they represent a very largo and influen
tial body of men. If this city is to make
a bid for the triennial conclave six years
bonce this is a Hue opportunity to begin.
The pcoplo generally do not and can
not realise how extensively Omaha is
being advertised by moans of the numer
ous conventions and meetings of varipus
kinds which tire bringing so many people
ple hero this year from nil parts of the
country. Every newspaper in the land
has kept.tho name of this city before its
readers for many weeks and will con
tinue to do so all summer. The visitors
who have buon hero huvo gene away fa
vorably impressed with the city and its
people , and it should bo the common
aim of all to see that those who are yet
to come shall be equally well pleased.

Notwithstanding the seom'ngly hearty
nnd slncoie assurances which the Tam
many democrats havo. given of their
purpose to support Mr. Cleveland in
good faith , the friends of tlio ex-presi
dent manifest a fooling of distrust.
They do not propose to lonvo the whole
business of looking after- the campaign
in New York to the present democratic
machine , which is in the hands of the
men who swore allegiance to the cause
of Hill , fought against Cleveland with
till tholr might at Chicago , and are on
record as having declared that the ox-
president could not cat ry Now York.
Orokor , Cockran , Flower and the rest
have since confessed loyalty lo the
ticket , the niiino of Cleveland has been
cheered by Tammany , and to all out
ward appearances harmony prevails in
the rnrtkb of the Empire state democ
racy , but the loyal supporters of Mr.
Cleveland nro not confident th'at these
manifestations are sincere and trust
worthy.
Accordingly they propose to keep up
the organization which was effected at
Syracuse. The provinipnnl committee
is to continue- existence and to take
such part in running Mr. Cleveland's
campaign as the regular committee may
permit or UH it ohull find opportunity
for. The loading spirits in the move
ment against Hill < lo not believe that a
stnto committee controlled by the men
who made the light against Cleveland
at Chicago can bo safely depended un on
to support the candidate they opposed
with that degree of interest and loyalty
necessary to win in Now. York this year.
They do not believe that the men whom
Hill placed in centiol of the democratic
machi'to can bo trusted to run the cam
paign honestly , in spite of the promises
and protestations of Grokor and the
democratic bosses. They fool that these
men at least need watching , and that in
order to keep them in line there must
be a guard sot upon them , The Syra
cuse provisional committee which
demonstrated its Inlluonco at Chicago
can moot these requirements most ef
fectively , and therefore it is to bo con
tinued in existence , with an established
headquarters aud the usual campaign
machinery.
That there Is reason for tlio distrust
which ttiis action implies is not to bo
doubted. The professed change in the
disposition of Tammany since the Chicago
cage convention very few pojplo believe
to be sincere , but if It bo .conceded that
NO far as that political organization la
concerned it will keep its pledge of n
loyal Biippor of Mr. Clove-hind , there are
still members of the democratic state
committee outside of Tammany and not
nt all subject to iU commands who could
work to compasa the defeat of Cleveland
without in the least compromising that
organization. As a matter of fact , the
bitterest opponents of the ox-president
were not Tammany men. Those nro the
follows whom n7p provlsional committee
will need to ' < corr"n.n eye on. It Is an
interesting atnHusttuctivo fact which
this action ilHyipscs. It shows that
j thoio Is no roalaWJrmony or conlklonco
between the doTTiooratlc factions in New
York , and that nil the professions of
harirony made since the Chicago con
vention have failed to effect n
sincere union between the warring ele
ments o the Empire state democracy.
The plan of continuing the Syracuse
committee may proWto bo' wise , but it
would seem that Iho distinctly Implied
lack of confidence in the honesty of the
regular committee charged with the
duty of running the campaign could
hnidly fail to have an otTcct unfavorable
to the cultivation of harmony. It would
not bo nt all surprising if it should result
in arousing a spirit of resentment.
flXTKXl ) THK I'lllK LIMIT.
Omaha will surprise herself this year
by the number of superb and imposing
private i evidences that are Ivelng oreeled
in various parts of the city. Those
elegant and substantial structures
would do credit to any city in the coun
try. They nro nearly all constructed of
stone , brick , tlio nud plate glass , which
goes to show that wo have p'tssed out of
the era of costly bulloon frames.
The dlfforonco In the cost of a well-
built and highly finished frame house is
but a trillu loss than a bric'c house with
stone trimmings. The brick house will
not merely outlast the frame , but cre
ates nn impression of permanency
which adds vastly to the npuoaraneo of
nil cities built of brick.
And this suggests the propriety of
extending our lire limits. As compared
with Denver , Kansas City or St. Paul ,
Omaha appears 10 great disadvantage ,
bcciuso tn'eso cities are solidly built up
in brick and stone. St. ljattl is in the
heart of the lumber region , while every
foot of building lumber has to bo
brought from a distance of from 400 to
500 miles to Omaha. The advantage of
building of bricic must be apparent.
Every dollar wo pay out for brick will
circulate at homo , ana the moro
brick wo use the greater will bo the ex
tent of its manufacture. In other words ,
if wo increase the demand fo" brick wo
will stimulate brickmaUing , and that
will be followed by a reduction in the
cost of home-made brick.
TIIU boot sugar industry in Nebraska
is in its infancy. It is but a question of
time when it will bo ono of thq most
valuable resources of the state. The
obvious reason for this is that the soil
and climate of , n largo part of this state
are peculiarly favorable to the produc
tion of the sugar Beet , nnd it has been
conclusively demonstrated that the Ne
braska grown btdW are not excelled by
those cultivated in nny other part of the
world. It is alsd' ' a demonstrated fact
that the growing of sugar boots can bo
made very profitable. Those considera
tions insure than steady progress of the
industry. In view of this prospect it is
obviously desirkbtp that Omaha shall
take an active intoiost in the question
of establishing he'i'b ono or more sugar
refineries. This city ought to do a
largo share of the refining of bugar
produced in Nebraska , and undoubtedly
cun if it shows the proper enterprise.
Indeed , Omaha might in time become a
sugar refining center , drawing supplies
of beets from contiguous btntos whore
the ' -aising of them is contemplated ,
thereby building up a most important
and profitable industry. This is a very
practical matter to which our capitalists
ought to devote serious attention.
WHAT has become of tbo ordinance
regulating the inspection of telegraph ,
telephone , electric light and railway
motor wii 08 ? Months ago the council
created the otllce of city electrician , but
for some reason which nobody yet has
been able to explain the ordinance de
fining the powers and duties of the city
electrician has boon pigeon-holed.
Meantime the wire nuisance continues ,
and life and property are endangered
constantly by the deadly wires that are
planted promiscuously over and acrobs
our thoroughfares and in contact with
our buildings. There can bo only ono
rational explanation of the fnilur of
the council to do its duty in the premises ,
and that Is the pressure brought by in-
torebted corporations , and especially the
electric lighting company , which draws
817o per year per lamp for lights of
2,000-candlopowor , when they may
readily substitute lamps of 1,000-candlo-
powoiso long as there is no inspection.
By TIIK end of this year ten commodi
ous school buildings costing in the
neighborhood of $300,000 will bo com
pleted for the accommodation of the pa
trons of our public schools. No city in
this country of equal population will bo
able to boast an equal number of mag
nificent school buildings , and no city in
the country will excel Omaha in the
efficiency of her public school system.
That fact alone ought to draw to tnis
city hundreds of enterprising and Intel
ligent people wha pslro to locate in a
city that offers Jti ucemonts to enter
prise and eapltnU.cpTnmorclally nnd af

Ho took a bold stand ngninst usurious rates of
interest , declaring that if elected to the olllco
of treasurer tie would not deposit ndollarof the
county money In any bank that would charge
the people a greater rate than the legal rate
of Intorcst , 10 per conl. Within thirty days
thereafter nil the banks In Pawnee county
had lowered the rate of interest to 10 per
cent. At tno last election Mr. Wortham was
re-elected by on increased majority und the
republicans in his county , and many of the
loading citizens outside of Iho party , nro in
favor of his nomination for slate tioiuurer.
In this connection it might bo npproprlato
to quote thu following from the Lincoln
News : "In some quarters il is contended
that-n banner should nol bo nominated for
stale treasurer , mid it musl bo udmitled Hint
past history in this connection is not speci
ally reassuring. "
John Moran , n leading merchant i.nd demo
crat of Callaway. is lu the city. Although
Intensely partisan ho does not hoMtnto to say
that thoie isn't a democrat In Ike SKlli
dislrict whl can bo elected to congress , but
ho believes that the republicans c.ui defeat
ICem and ho names Jim \Vhitehead as tno
strongest man for the purpose. According
to Mr. Moran the democrats of the west end
would like to see Governor Doyd nominated
for re-election.
According to the Popilllon Times , Senator
Switzlor was once a Sarpjr county fnvorito
for congiossionnl honors , "Ho is no good
down hero now , " says Iho Times. "Ho gave
a positive promise to deliver an nddross In
Papio on the 4th. Ho didn't keep UU
promise. A man who will break a Fourth of
July promise will break u political pledge * .
Ho who cannot be ? trusted in the lltllo affairs
of life can searco bo rolled upon to faithfully
represent a people iu public place. "
The republican congressional convention of
the big Sixth dlslrlct will bo held at Chadron
August 10. If the right man is named ho
will be tholirsl congressman for Ihnt district
and KOMI will bo once moio u plain private
citizen.
The latest nnd most startling local rumor
is that Delegate Thompson has cono'Into
training for tno congressional nomination.
Up to date , ho has professed lo bo for Scott
whoi > o boom Is undergoing repairs nt present.
Thompson is big with the Idea thnt ins elec
tion to the national convention meant Unit
Ibo people called him lo me front ana that
they will put him into congress if ho but
asks Iho plnco. Ho denounces thoio who suy
that his election was an accident.
Mr. S. M. Wolbach of Grand Island , a
leading democrat of central Nebraska , wns
in Omaha the other day and was not. averse
lo talking politics.
"No , " snld Mr. Wolb.ieh , "tho people's
party Is not going to neil n very lioavy vote
in Hull county bv placing Weaver an < t Van
Wyck at tha head of the national and state
tlckols. The Independents of Hal ! are not

"Will Governor Boyd bo ronomlnalod by
the democrats ? " the reporter Inquired.
"I don't l < now , but I have boon told thnt
Mr. lloyd would not ba a candidate for ro-
election. "
"In casn Mr. Uoyd does not enter the race
whom will your pony bollkoly tonnmlnatel"
"The two men 1 hoar mentioned are Krnnic
Ireland and a man who live * In Grand
Islnnd. "
"You refer to Mr. S. M. Wolbach , I sup
pose I" bnid the reporter , rnllavlnirlho gentle
man of the embarrassing sltuaiion ,
"Yea , ho Is the man I moan. "
"Will you bo In III"
"I am not an olllco seeker , " said Mr. Wol-
bach , "but If the boys want me to IMUIIO iho

people could persuade such millionaires us
I'nut/L-r of the World and Carnegie of the

palace and more evenly divide up his prollts
with his workmen , it would bo well. Of the
iwo Iho uomocrnUc editor of the World is
much the more pompous nristocrat.
Philadelphia Enquirer : Ono reform

Ilomeuoad riots. Laws that will prevent
the employment of Pinltorton dolectivos
armed with rillos nro iioedod. The llrst con
llict at the Carnegie stool wonts was brought
on by the nppearance of the I'Inkortons.
i'hoi were not essential. They wore pro
vided for the use of the company , nnd their
badge of authority was ono bearing tno
name of the company , with the word "watch
man" added. They were not olflcers of the
law. They were private watch men , armed
with deadly weapons.
Now York Sun : There Is nothing now to
prevent the stiikdrs at Homestead from
opening the great Carnegie plant on their
own account. Thov are in full possession of
the property : thev hold their title from the
covernor of Pennsylvania " , and it only
remains for them lo" capture Carnegie nnil
his partner * und torco thorn to work ns slaves

as if It wcro not enough that IhU black nnd
