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.

we shall see every schoolhouse ablaze

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

they can bo cured by moans of n , "ro-
Bpootablo" saloon managed by the
municipality is simply absurd.
THE anniversary , of the battle of

many and all Europe. There Is no na

THE iroHbtris Fitn
It IH the duty ot every nowaptpor In
this stuto to tiwnkon ptibMc Interest in
the World's fair. 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-

whether the gubernatorial argument shall
bo Ihrce-cornorcd or not. It Is sold that Mr
Morton wants to got in , and surety the re
publican slcto of the show shouldn't object to
his making un exhibition ot his frco trade
fallacies. According to Uoneral Van Wyck ,
'Mr. Morton Is welcome to stop In , so nil that
Is necessary to lusuro the success of tbo
greatest political show on earth Is to nrrnngo
the details that Is , hi the prevailing New
Urlonns parlanuo , put up the stuff and coino
to tbo center.
Just to ndd to the Interest of Ibo campaign ,
Diunn-thc-CnnsUlution Shrador has Issued n
challenge to Tom Majors. lu sending out
this defy tbo Indopcnaeut state commluoo
has couched It In Unguogo befitting the
emergency nnd the mnn whom they propose
to throw Into the brenau. Shrador Is ono of
the proatojt calamity howjcrs In tbo stnto ,
and the challenge starts out with this doleful
wnll : "Wonro on the voriro of an Impend
ing revolution , In thu citlos nnd towns
lockouts nnd strilcos threaten the peace of
society. Labor Is everywhere discontented ,
Stagnation in business confronts us on every
band. Crlmo nnd pauperism uro rapidly on
the Increase. Capital is concentrating Into
the hands of the fow. The rich nro growing
richer , the poor growing poorer. Mort
gages cover the faro of this rlnhost of all
lands. The cause must bo discovered and
understood. "
Congressman ICotn thought ho was a
smooth man and his trick to decclvo the re
publicans by advertising \VhltohcadlospcnK
nt his meetings was quito cute , considering
the source. But Matt Liaughorty caught
onto the llttlo rcd-hoadcd roosier's pamo and
called him down. Ko.n must olthor tote fairer
or back down.
Uonoral Van Wyck stands squarely upon
the platform of the people's party , but ho Is
not a communist. At Grand Island the
other night bo had occasion to leave his
room temporarily nnd wbdn ho returned ho
found two men comfortably snoozing in his
bod. To this the general wns opposed on tho"
ground mat It xvas a combination for
purposes of monopoly , the two sloupors hav
ing evidently entered into a cons piracy to
oppress aud defraud the weak.
The "Dlsclplos of Harmony" of Peru have
organized nn orchestra , with the editor of
the Peru Gazoilo as secretary. Tbls or
ganization has nolhtng to do with politics.
tiown in Nebraska City they refer to Billy
Bryan as Young-Man-Afrnid-of-Wntson.
Tbo Crete Vidotto Is ono of these papers
which doesn't ' bollovo in culling har h names ,
and so it refers to Rip Snorlor Bill Deoa ns
the "lily of the valley farmer. " William's
friends will appreciate that.
Tbo republicans of Clay county hnvo
raised a campaign fund of $1,500 und nro still
adding to it. And they haven't a field us wldo
ns two states from which to solicit subscrip
tions , nor have they the aid of a "populnr"
newspaper.
The republican editors of tbo Fourth con
gressional district will got together at Lin
coln Thursday , Then look out for trouble
In the enemy's camp. " " "
According to the Plattsmouth Herald Mor
ton and Goring will recelvo moro votes in
Cass and Otoe counties than will young Mr.
Bryan. The old line democrats have it infer
for Iho youthful opostlo of free silver and
calamity.
Tno Lincoln Sun asks this question and
then makes a lot of foolish statements : "How
many republicans In Nebraska do not know
how they will vole on governor until tbo
railroad managers decide whether to throw

Sun might just as well have rung in Van
