ONTJIKSK bright morninga the sap phires in the floor of the union depot nro very bewildering and dazzling to the oyus of the unwary stranger. PECK'S mournful liguros truvo the democracy a quick boost "through the slaughter house" and are now hastening it toward that "open grave" of which Honri Wattorson so wisely spoko. " li THE owlish Boston Journal observes | H ' that a good candidate to not nominate is j the ' 'good follow , whom everyone calls i | by his first name , " etc. But wo fear the Journal will bo shocked ug.iin this year.

THIS Sioux City papers talk a great doul about Omaha receiving u secret re bate on hog product rates to Chicago. There IB probably nothing In this story | for the South Omaha packers are certainly - tainly as earnest in the fight against Chlcngo injustice as are Sioux City packers. . THE Labor day parade was a success and reflected credit upon the committee of arrangements. Popular interest in the holiday was. shown by the largo crowds that wituessod tho.parade. The celebration was crcditablo in every re spect and Labor day has Increased its claim to public favor. Io\VA will see a grand carnival of joint debates this year. All the con gressional candidates will bo at it and it is now being rapidly extended to all the electors and all the Bin to ticket candi dates. If it keeps on , by election tirao we shall see every schoolhouse ablaze with the light of kot-osono lamps and oratory. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ THE municipal saloon project In Sioux Falls has been killed by the city fathers. The only slr.uigo thing about it is that Bunh an idea should have been enter tained at all. The evils of prohibition rum may bo great , but the notion that they can bo cured by moans of n , "ro- Bpootablo" saloon managed by the municipality is simply absurd. THE anniversary , of the battle of Sedan was celebrated Sunday by the Germans of this city In an appropriate manner. Their joy over the result of 'thatlmttlo Is not because of the victory over the French alona , but on account of the lusting pcaco it assured to Ger many and all Europe. There Is no na tion or people more poaco-loving than the Germans. l ( < GENEUAL WEAVEH ia making n tour | | of the riouth , and every whom ho goes the democratic papers publish before bin arrival some of his famous antl- rebel speeches delivered just aftur the Avar , when ho was u loyal republican.

It will not ho n dim- cult inattot * to impress upon the public the great Importances ot Nebraska's rep resentation nmonff the stit3 oxhlbita of the Efo.xt Columbian exposition. Wo cannot afford to lasr bnhind slhtar states In this regard. Unfortunately there is a species of political crnnkUm that foodB on iv wholesale dotr.ictlon of this and othoi * wo'itorn states. These slanders have done moro to retard our material growth than any other aotlvo inlluonco. They attack us at u vital point. Pros pective Investor * do not go to the trouble of invtHUu'rUlns the true condition of things. They simply pass ever nnd go on to localities whoso people delight in sounding the praises of their stnto and in m tklny it profitable for capitalists * to invest with them. For these reasons and many others the Nebraska oxhibtt at the World's fair must show to. the people of this country that thld stnto is the pardon spot of eirth : ; that Nebraska corn has no equal ; that her small yniln of all kinds is as good as any ; that her crop aeroi : > ; o is Increasing larpaly every year ; that her producer are prospering while tliotr land increases In vuluo ; that she has many tiiitlllod acres yottvwaitin e the nlowsharo and that shu oilers uuo x- ainplod inducements to immigration. J/ittlo is known of Nebraska tminufuo- turos. Wo must show to the world what wo make and the llmttloss possibilities of this state in all branches of industry. In short , our resources nnd our products of whatsoever nature must bo put to the front. It is the greatest opportunity" ever presented to the stato. from 1880 to 1890 the population increased ever KM percent , un uchiovomont won by indi vidual effort on the part of the citl/en's of tills state. Uut the conditions are such that a still greater increase in pop ulation and wealth inuy toasonably bo oxpooted during the present decado'i In order to do this , wo must toll the worla what wo have within our 70,01)0 ) square miles. There are thousanJs of people in the United States who believe that Nebraska is ono part desert and the other part savage , with hero and there a clvill/.od settlement. Wo must toll them the facts. The revelation will open their eyes and finally wo may induce - duce many of them to bacorne citizens of this sin to. A merchant who expects to prosper must advertise his wares. A state that expects to grow must show to the world her advantages and resources. This id what the World's fair is for. The duty of the state is plain. THK FIRST JD.ll' OF SCHOOL. Today the doors of the public schools of Omaha open to receive the children , and the preparations of the past week will end with the entrance of the pupils upon their work. This djy is not with out peculiar and pleasant feelings for these who have long since loft the du ties and tuslcs of the school , as pupils eras as teachers , while to the child it is a day of feverish excitement and glad an ticipation. There nro millions of men and women in America who would glvo almost anything to fool again the satno ecstatic thrill of delight us in the old days when the school boll called them away from vacation and to their studies. The schools of Omaha today would bo revelations to the school masters and pupils of two or throe decades ago. This city takes especial pride In its schools , its buildings , its teachers , pupils and entire educational system. And as the result , our schools have reached a degree - greo of excellence unsurpassed by the schools of any other city in this country. There uro sixty school buildings herewith with an enrollment of nearly 30,000 pupils and 300 teachers. The reason this city has such good schools lies in the fact that our appreciation uncj pride in the schools have taken tho. practical manifestation of line buildings , strict scrutiny of applicants for positions , and high salaries paid to the teachers. It is a fact that Omaha is the Mteea of public school touchers , because of the salaries paid and the conveniences and liberality of the school system. The end , object and actual elToct of this system , with the splendid , loyal backing of the people of Omaha , has been and will bo moro and moro to produce - duce trained men nnd women equipped with the best weapons for life's work ; to render the in intelligent and honor able citizens. THK NoimiwEai' AXU CANADA. The address by Joseph Nimmo before the commercial convention at Grand Perks was a flho argument in bohnlf of American interests. It appears , says Mr. Nimmo , that the entire trade of the United States with Canada id loss than one-fifth that of the arid region with the rest of the union. The arid region of the United States Is the most pro ductive region in the world so far us mineral wealth is concerned. Its chief products uro gold , silver , copper , load , cattle , horses nnd wool. The value of exports of precious metals froti' that re gion during the latest year of compiled statistics was as follows : Gold , $33,175- 000 ; silver , $75.117,000. The imports into the arid region are almost ontlroly of an agricultural char- actor. The value of agricultural im ports into Canada from North Dakota during last year amounted to $20,000- 000. The'so imports were ehiofly from the Btatcs bordering on the arid region on the east and consisted nrinily of wheat and Hour. The faot that Montana is a great mineral producing state , while lor ) agricultural production is limited , nnd that North Dakota is not n mineral atato , while Bho lias great agricultural resources , may bo taken as proof that commercial oxohango between the two countries would bo advantageous. Mr. Nimino says : "North Dakota farmers must all bo fully aware of the fact that by abolishing the protective duties on their various products which I liavo enumerated they would encounter a very liugo Canadian competition not onlyln their own markets but ulso la the nwrUottt of SU Paul , Minneapolis and Dtiluth , while they would scouro uo reciprocal market of any considerable value in Manitoba. " This 14) ) undoubtedly a fair atiUomont of the case. "Under existing circum stances , " sayw Mr. Nimmo , "froo trade would bo a vury grout bonolit to Munl- toba , but exceedingly disastrous lo the agricultural interests of thu American northwest. " "Tho population of Mon tana , " ho snyp , "is now about 150.000 , which I think is tn excess of the popu lation of Manitoba , and I think that no Intelligent person In the northwestern section of the country can entertain a doubt that the growth of Montana In wealth , in population and in commerce will bo much moro rapid thiin that of Manitoba. " The substance of Mr. Nimmo's argu ment is that free trndo between the United Slates and Canada would bo damaging to our interests. Ho Is un doubtedly right , and wo do not bollovo that his conclusions will bo disputed by any recognized American authority. A liENKFlCKiW' MUVHMEKT. A convention of delegates represent ing the local building and loan associa tions of Nebraska will bo hold at Lin coln tomorrow. The primary object of the convention is to farm u state league of co-oponttivo societies for mutual ben efit and protection , to compare methods , nnd by an Interchange of oxpurloncos simplify , if possible , existing systems of co-oporativo ondoavor. Building nnd loan associations repre sent ono of the most important economic movements of the present timo. As incentives to thrift they are unsurpassed , while ns factors In the growth and stability of u community their worth is universally appreciated. To the great army of breadwinners the principles of co-operation which they embody nnd practice afford relief from the heavy burden of rent. Authorities estimate that one-third of the earnings of workingmen - men is taken for rent. The rule npphoa to the skilled na well as the unskilled workmen , for It is a well established- fact that the loca tion and Bizo of the rented homo gauges the earnings of the occupant. The burden of rout is not only an over- present drain on Iho energies of the workman , but It also deadens the natural desire to beautify the surroundings of a genuine homo. A movement calculated to baniah the burden of rent and nt the same tlmo give permanency to habita tion commends itself to the active support of states and communities. So far from being an experiment , building and loan associations are an unqualified success. Last yoar-they added 10,000 homos to Philadelphia's building roll , nnd have in thirty years aided 05,000 workmen in securing homes of their own in the Quaker city. In Now York state co-oporativo societies represent an amount of invested capital far exceeding the deposits of the state savings banks. Massachusetts reports 110 societies with assets of ever $12,000- 000. Their development in the north' central states is amazing , Ohio alone having nearly 200,000 members and assets exceeding $50,000,000. Co-operativo building in Nebraska hns boon retarded by speculative con cerns , which , taking advantage of the popularity of the system , drummed the state , securing hundreds of victims by false promises. Notwithstanding the prejudice engendered by pleek swind ler , legitimate co-operation has made considerable heudwny. In less than a dozen years sixty associations have sprung up. They represent today $2,000,000 of assets and have built 1,500 homos for their members. The projected.stato league can do much toward spreading the beneficent principles of co-oporation. A good be ginning has boon made. By a union of common interests it is possible to 'ox- tend the benefits of co-operativo homebuilding building to every community in the state. A utato league , energetically managedcan materially aid in excluding fraudulent concerns , assist stuto oflleors in enforcing the law , and by urging fro- qucnt state inspection of all associations , insuio honesty and safety , the basis of permanent success. THUHK la u. big muss in Randall's old district in Philadelphia. Two years ago Richard Vaux was regularly nominated by the democrats and beaten by William McAleor , also a democrat , who was his only opponent. This year the regular democratic convontlon nominated . W. Kor , while a boltlug delegation mot and nominated McAleor , and , strange to say , all the democratic papers support the latter. It looks very much us if the time was ripe for an able and honest re publican to carry the district without trouble , and the mugwump Times ad vises such a nomination. For years the republicans of that district made no nomination on account of the protection ist views of the great Randall. But they are now determined to force the lighting and have all conlidonco in elect ing their nominee. THISKK is quito u fight In the Seventh Georgia district. A prominent demo crat , Soab Wrierht , has boon nominated by the people's party of that district for congress and the Atlanta Constitution is shouting with all the force of double leads for him to decline. Republicans have not much interest in that district , for in 18'JO ' they succeeded in having counted only 038 votes out of 20,000. opinion that absolute prohi bition of foreign trallio should bo pro claimed is a thoughtful and sensible ono , worthy of the man. Commerce is of trilling importance when weighed against the value of the lives of tlio American peoplo. If President Hut ri- Bon him the power to do it such a pro clamation will probably bo Issued.
