THK decision of Governor Buoharmn

stood tha.t Governor Buchanan will bo
nominated by the pooplo'd party , which
will hold its convention tomorrow , and
the platform he has announuod ought to
be entirely acceptable to the now party.
With four tickets in the Hold , und so
popular u man as Buchanan at the bond
of one of them , the republican ; ) ought
to stand some ohanco of winning , There
li every reason to expect that the gov
ernor will draw extensively from the
democrats , and na the pooplo's party in
Tennessee was largely recruited from
tl.o democracy , it wou'd ' seem that the
latter cannot nlTord to lose iv great many
more without the danger of being

Teuncdsee.
TX MISSOURJ.
The republicans of Mtssourl.undor the
leadership ot Major Warner , their can
didate for governor , are making n vigor
ous und nggrosslvo campaign , nnd it is
believed by those who tire well Informed
regarding the situation that the chances
of republican success on the stnlo ticket
are good. It Is n noteworthy fact that
the democratic load in Missouri on the
stnto ticket is falling off much faster
than It Is on the national ticket , The
democrats carried the slate in 1830or
president by 55,000 and for governor hi-
fi 1,000 , while four years ago the veto for
president was nearly 20,000 and for gov
ernor only a little over 13,000.
This very marked decline in the
democratic vote in state Issues is duo to
the fact that the people have become
dissatisfied with the prolonged domina
tion of one party and there is a very
general fooling that the material inter-
oats of the stnto would bo promoted by a
change. Intelligent democrats concede
that the continued control by their
party in the state is in some roapocts a
disadvantage , nnd it is be loved there
are many such who , while voting for the
national candidates of the democracy ,
will go with the republicans in state
isbuos. The republicans of Missouri do
not expect to carry tlio state against
Cleveland , , but they are hopeful , and
apparently with good reason , of electing
their stale ticket.
The republican candidate for gov
ernor , Major Warner , is very popular ,
particularly with the old soldiers , of
whom Missouri has a largo number , lie
is milking his campaign almost wholly
upon state issues and the testimony is
that his canvass is proving to bo very
olTcctlvo. At any ratd tlio advices from
Missouri are very reassuring for the re
publicans so far as the state ticket is
concerned , and such a victory this year
would go far toward making the state
republican on the presidential ticket
four years hence.

It pleases the orators and press of the
democratic party to make n great deal
of nolso about the "robber tariff , " and
the claim is persistently put forth that
the present protective tariff law has in
creased the cost , of necessaries to the
American people. Tlio claim is utterly
false , as everybody knows who keeps
oven an approximate account of his ox-
pon&cs.
Lot us sco how tha facts agree with
democratic statements. In 1889 blankets
cost $ ! 215 a pair , but by October , 1890 ,
they had fallen to S-1.09J , and the fol
lowing year they dropped to $3.70.
Boots that cost $3.27 a pair in 1889 , fell
in 1890 to $3.07 and the next year they
wore down to S2.78J. Calico dropped
from 7i cents to GJ cents and then to C
cents. Carpets fell from 77J cents to 72 }
In 18)0 ! ) and the next year they could bo
bought lor COJ cents. Cotton hosiery
fell from 25 ! to 201 ; cotton thread from
C to 44 ; Il.-vnnel from 39 } to 34J ; gingham
from 101 to 8J ; linen from 48 } to 42 } ;
rubber boots from S3.10J to $2.7HJ ; sheet
ings from 8 cents to Of ; shoes from $3.45
to $3.00 : granulated sugar from 9 } ton }
cents ; brown sugar from 8 } to 4 } .
Woolen clothing , which has been es
pecially pointed to by the free traders
as an article that must go up under pro
tection , has fallen decidedly since the
McKinley law wont into effect. Almost
everything that the poo'r man 1ms.to
Duy is cheaper now than over before ,
and the reduction is still going on under
the tariff law which the democrats say
is cruelly robbing the pockets of the
people. Nothing could bo more absurd
than the cool assumption of the loaders
of the democratic campaign that the
common people have not sense enough
to know the difference between truth
und falsehood concerning matters which
are directly and forcibly brought to
their attention every time they open
their purses to pay n , store bill.

Some time ago Mr. Cleveland said at
a reception given him by a democratic
club in Now York city , referring to the
conflicts in the party : "I do not know
.that there have boon any differences "
It was a disingenuous assertion , for no
one know bolter than Mr. Cleveland of
the disaffection in tbo ranks of the de-
mocracv. particularly in hib own state.
but it was accepted by the organs of the
candidate as an assurance that ho was
personally in harmonious relations with
each faction of the party. At u Itttor
date there was a statement from the
chairman of the uomocrntic national
committee that whatever differences of
choice or of opinion may have existed
prior to Iho Chicago convention they
wore completely done away with , and
this also was heralded as evidence that
democrats wore forgetting that there
had over been any differences. But no
body knew batter than Mr. Ilarrity that
such was not tlio cage , because ho was
oven at that time cudgeling lit * brain in
connection with Mr. Whitney to devise
a way to placate some of the dis
gruntled democrats of Now York.
A plan was finally adopted which gave
prominent recognition to some of the
most ardent friends of Senator David B.
Ilill , but if the arrangement pleased
those gentlemen , as it would soain from
their acceptance il did , it produced an
enlirely different effect upon HOIIIO of
the men who wore conspicuous in their
opposition to Hill , The state of mind of
some of thrt 'anti-snappara , " as dis
closed in recent interviews , shows that
there are very pronounced differences
among the democrats of the Kmplro
state , und the men who are now doing
tha ( .vigorous Kicking are thoio who
most actively and zaalously championed
Iho oiuso of Mr. Cleveland. The Borious
oharuclor of tha situation will be appre
ciated when it is staled Unit Mr. Charles
A. Dana makes a personal * appeal to
William U. Gruco and Charles S. Fairchild -
the " " loaders to
child , "antl-simppor" ,
"suppress , or at least to conceal , the
bitterness which they are now manifest
ing toward the lion. William C. Whit
ney und tbo du'y constituted managers
of the democrat o canvass. " Mr , Dana
warno thorn that the course they are
pursuing is calculated to injure the
democratic course.
"If either through mortllled vanity , "
nays the editor of the Sun , "or through
jealousy of other loudom chosen in pref
erence to themselves to order and con
duct the democratic canvass , they per
sist In exhibiting themselves na the
original promoters of Mr. Cleveland's
candidacy and Iho peculiar proprlolora
of his political fortunes , they will render
democratic success difficult if not im
probable. " The trouble is that Grace ,
Kali-child , and the other "anti-snap-
pars" are disposed to resent the uncere
monious way in which they were turned
down and tihcohan and others of the
friends of Hill put forward. It is a nat
ural fooling , but the treatment is what
they might have expected , Mr. Whit
ney is a very practical politician , and ho
understood the Importance of placating
and using the lighting men of the party.
That Mr. Cleveland was In full sympa
thy with the plan which relegated
Grace , Fall-child and their associates to
the background is not to bo doubted.
It is questionable whether these gen
tlemen will hood the admonition of Mr.
Dana. * They have not received voryro-
spoclful consideration from him. In the
past and they may fool that ho is in
some measure responsible for the treat
ment they huvo received at the hands of
Mr. Whitney. At any rnto they do not
hesitates to lot It bo known that they are
fit present very much dlssatldffed and it
remains to bo soon whether they can bo
whipped into lino. This and other cir
cumstances in the political situation in
Now York make the outlook for ropub-
llciiu success in the state very promising.

The competition between the railroads
and the clipper ships from San Fran-
cibco lo Now York is producing rcsulis
very favorable lo Iho shippers of tlio
Pi'.oific coast , especially in Iho line of
heavy freights. There has lately boon
a great revival in the carrying trade
from west tfl east by the way of Capo
Horn. Some of the largest and best
sailing ships now engaged in commerce
; uo these employed in what is called in
tbo cast "tho California trade. " It takes
a sailing ship about 115 days on the
average lo go from San Francisco to
Now York around the Horn. Some
times it lakes much longer , and a voy-
atro of 100 days is considered vm-y re
markable. Yet this slow method , of
freight transportation baa , by reason of
its cheapness , so extensively cut into
the business of the railroads that the
Southern Pacific has deemed it nnces-
sury to lower its rate on cerlain kinds of
goods from 40 lo CO per conl ; and judg
ing by the published schedule Iho re
duction applies to the greater portion
of the inerchandinp shipped cast from
the Pacific coast.
It will naturally bo supposed that
merchandise requiring quick transpor
tation will go entirely by rail , and that
the railroadb will inako the shippers
pay dearly for such freight. Not only
is this true , but local rates are help up
lo the highest notch and shippers are
bitterly bemoaning the lack of competi
tion in rates lo inland markets.
Tlio water routes are Iho great rogu-
lalors of transportation charges. Whore
there is a posbibilily of competition by
sea or lake or canal against the rail
roads the latter must inevitably suc
cumb. They Have always done so. The
water is free to all and offers no advant
age to the monopolist.

It is the province of every newspaper
lo supply Us patrons with Information
concerning any topic in which there is
a popular interest. In the exorcise of
this function there Is a limit beyond
which no reputable journal will over
venture. The sensational publicity
given by the World'llcmld to floating
btreot rumors , concerning the liite Judge
Clarkson , is an outrageous abtibo of ttic
license which Iho American press en
joys. It ih a cruel fake based on the
wildest theories unsupported by any
tangible proof.
The woof and web of the pretended
discovery that Judge Clarkson has do-
sorlod family und friends und sought to
defraud tliii life Insurance companies by
leaving evidences of accidental drown
ing rest tipon Iho most films/of pre
texts. Tlio more finding in the neigh
borhood of Honey Creek lake fragments
of letters and clothing tags is stupidly
coupled with a barber's story that ho
had cut off the board of a man who hap
pened to travel in that neighborhood
two wouks ago.
Judge Clurkson was a sane man when
last scon , and if ho moditate'd abscond
ing ho certainly would have talcon every
precaution to cover his tracks. Ho
would scarcely have dropped letters
and papers that wore sure to leave a

Tun decline in 1 the price of silver ,
which has fallen lower than over before ,
is causing a serious disturbance in the
financial and commercial affairs of In
dia and presents n problem to the Brit
ish government full of grave difficulties.
It is nothard lo find roasnna for the de
cline , but how lo moot the changed con
ditions which it involves nnd avert the
troubles which it threatens is not so
easy a matter. The United States Is
qulo us much Inlorostod In this subject
ns any other country , but nothing can
bo done regarding it for at least six
months. The treasury is powerless , the
law absolutely requiring Iho purchase of
so much silver monthly , so that the gov
ernment must go on purchasing oven if
that metal should continue to fall. The
situation gives more than ordinary interest -
torost to the conl'oronco soon to bo hold
to consider the silver problem , but r.s
that body can do nothing except lo
recommend a great deal may happen in
the way of unsettling financial affairs
before any practical result from Us de
liberations mny bo reached. Meanwhile
the downward course of silver offers a
lesson for the careful attention of these
who urge that the United States should
adopt the free and unlimited coinage of
that metal. Suppose that policy wore
now in operation , can there bonny doubt
that there would pour into the country
a flood of silver which our mints could
not handle in the next flvo years , but
which coming here would have tlio ef
fect to drive gold to a premium and out

to the workingmen of Omaha that ho
had sold a horse for S1CO to Undo Sam
and was compelled to give a boird that
has never yet been roloisod. This is a
grievance that all the workingmen in
the country should rise in their might
to redress. It is an1 awful hardship on a
free American citizen , but Mr. Willots
should not lose < much sloop over that
perpetual bond if ho came by the .horse
honestly. The probabilities are that
about the time he'sold lhat horse Uncle
Sam's quartormrtstors were troubled by
claimants whososhorses found their way
from the jiiyhaWkdrs' stolen herd into

To SO3II5 of the visitors it may seem
that Omaha has been a boom city. This
is not true. The growth during the

created by causes which had long been

authorities. Omaha rests upon a boi

of Nebraska are to bo congratulated over tbo
notion of the state convention in nominating
a ticket which can stand on Its own merits.
The candidates nro all well known through
out the stnto , and nro nil known ns men of
honor , Intogrltv nnd ability.
Valentino Republican- The republican
state ticket is truly one of great strength
and will surely load the republican party on
to victory this fall. The bcstnnd iiiostuvail-
able mon were nominated , and their nomina
tions were not dictated by unscruimlous and
designing political barnaulos.
Thurston Countv Republican : The tlokot
is generally conceded to bo thostrongosttbat
could possibly be named. It would bo bard
to find a man to head the ticket who ( s bet
ter known to the people of Nebraska or who
bus been longer idontillod with their inter
ests than Hon. Lorenzo Crounso.
Franklin Republican : The republican
state ticket is ono that every republican iu

In Lorenzo Crounso wo have a leader of na
tional reputation. The rest of the tlcltot are
man who command the respect and conli-
donco of every loyal citi/.cn of tuo state.
Nebraska City Press : The very painful
attempt of democratic organs' to brlns the
spotless reputation of , .luutro Crounso Into
disrepute , has only resulted iu showing that
no has been n faithful servant of the people
In olllcc , und ia all the years of bis onlclal
career has never once been found derelict In
duty.
Fremont Tribune : The Tribune made n
light for Judee Crounso for congress Just ton
years neo. It was convinced : it that time
that Crounso was an able and feuncss nd-
vocato of tbo rights of the people. It still
behoves and knows him to ba such and it U
n positive pleasure to advocate his cause
before the people of tbo stuto.
Randolph Tunes : fbo republican party of
Nebraska , if il over made a mistake , cer
tainly avoided repenting it this year , and the
clean tlcltot which it hns placed in nomina
tion is un evidence of Its Intention lo redeem
the state nt the coming Movomunr election to
the republican column with an old-tlmo ma
jority. Every republican in the stnto cnn
give the ticket his support , nnd this Is one of
the years when ho is going to do it.
McCook Tribune : The republicans hn o
selected n thoroughly respectable , thor-
oucbly representative and thoroughly repub
lican ticket. The contest over some of tbo
otllccs was shun ) and prolonged , but such
struggles leave no wounds In the bodies of
true republicans. The ranks uro already
closed nnd the lines uro already formed for
ono of the liveliest nnd most aggressive cam
paigns the party 1ms over conducted in
Nebraska.

Nr.w YOIIK , Aug. 10. A crucial test of the
policy of the government was imvlo yrstor-
day when Ilcldolbach Yokolbormlnn tendered
$1,000,000 In treasury notes which wore Is
sued on account of .silver purchases and de
manded for thorn $1,000,000 In gold for ship
ment to Gormnny by today's steamer. Tha
treasury ofllcinls tnndo no demurrer , but
paid out the $1,000,000 In exchange- the
treasury notes nnd the load was carted nwny
and put on tbo steamer. Tbo transaction
caused some comment , as no homo Institution
or homo banking Hrm has over in the history
of the government made n llko demand on the
treasury , and In some quarters nn Impression
provnllod thai tlio exporting llrm took this
stop , not so much to take tbo protlt on Iho
shipment , which , In itself , Is too Insignificant ,
for n bank or llrm to consider , but raully lor
the purpose ot forcing a crisis ,
Assislanl Treasurer Roberts wan nt the
subtreasury while Iho gold for Germany was
bolng carted nwav. Ho admitted that It was
tbo llrst time .such n demand bad boon mnJo ,
ullhougb gold bad heretofore been .given
partly for old nnd partly for now treasury
notes. Ho said la reply lo questions :
"No stops have beou Inkon by the adminis
tration to'prevont or obstruct the oxporl ot
gold. The government stands ready lo moot
nil Its obligations In gold , nnd will pay them
nil In gold. Its free gold balance now
amounts to$112,000,000.
By this stntomont of Treasurer IJoborls , it
is clear thai the government has already
decided on n plan to pay nil the silver
treasury notes in gold If 11 is demanded.
Vice President Cannon of the Fourth
National bank anld bo did not think that ilia
gold surplus would bo reduced at present ,
bui tliul II would bo Increased instead , as the
treasury Is now receiving gold from tbo
oastcrn banks for transhipment to tbo west ,
nnd in the wosl Is paying out currency on
account of Iheso shipments. By this slop
lasl year Ibo government Increased Its gold
holdings 414,000,000.
