The republican committee is not composed of fools and liouco thla report is a simon pure fabri cation.

The only rooruiis of any importation or Quantity cpmq from the latter class , ns can bo dnmonstrutud to anyone's satisfaction who inqulios into tlio matter. IOWA re publicans are iiwlly uidnd rather than harmud by the existence of that party , a fact which Harrlbon'a plurality In that etuto will clearly prove. ironn rii\o AHOVT OMAHA. Omnha never concerns herself about the clomostlo or political affairs of Lin coln. Omnha papers never meddle with the strictly local political controversies of Lincoln or Lancaster county. Not so with the Lincoln papers. Nothing hap pens In Omnha that docs nol furnish food for slanderous and malicious com ment or exaggeration nnd downright misrepresentation. Ono of the Lincoln papers , for instance , goes out of Us way to discuss the canvass of Judge Scott , and assorts that ho wns elected last fall to the bench in spile of the violent op position ol TUB Br.n , when In fact ho owed his election to the iictlvo support of Tin : Biu : The Lincoln paper , founded with the money contnbtitcd by public plunderers who scnndalfrod the early history of this state , ventures to lecture Omaha about her duties in the congressional campaign and extols Dave Mercer ns a shining example for young men who start front hymhlo beginnings nnd gain enviable prominence In the higher walks of life. . This Is in accord with the eternal fitness of things. The standard of political morals at Lincoln 1ms nnvor risen nbovo the capper and oil-room stool pigeon. The Idea that the rising generation of young mon in Nebraska should emulate the example of con- eclcncclcss politicians who do not scruple to polbon the well-springs of our free institutions by helping to debauch the representatives ot the people coulu only emanate from mon Bleeped in cor ruption. It i& to bo hoped for the good ofNobiaska that few young mon will "prostitute their talents to such bnso ends. Omaha will scarcely fool grateful for the compliments bestowed upon her pot house politicians by Lincoln papers , whoso good will toward Omaha lias yet to bo exhibited. Our kind friends at the state capital bettor not worry too much about Omaha or her candidates for ' congress. Sl'tllXUKlt'tt HiCKIKSS Congressman Springer , chairman of the house committee on ways nnd mc'ins , is doing hla boat to disci edit the democratic party with the intelligent people of the country. Holding , as ho does , a very responsible position among the party lenders , his utterances are given an importance they would not otherwise possess , nnd when ho makes ucli reckless statements a * ) he did at Detroit a short time ago and at Mat- eon , 111. , on Tuesday , they cannot but ; ) rove damaging witn fail -minded mon o the party ho roprobonts. Mr. Springer talked about the nnnu- ncture of tin plate at Mattoon , and ho iiad the oflrontory , in the face of indis putable fncts , to declare that the busi ness of making tin plate could never bo luccossfully carried on In the United States. Other democrats and demo cratic organs have insisted that the re ported production of tin plato in this country was exaggerated and that no uch progress had been made as was ilnimod , but it remained for Mr. Springer to assort that the Industry is ilready n failure hero and that there is no possibility of making it a success. It , voulil bo very comforting to the scores of Welsh manufacturers who have closed their works and to the thousands of Welsh workmen who are idle if they could accept as authoritative the opin- on of Mr. Springer , but they will hardly bo disposed to do &o. They know that tin plato is being made in the United States , and as practical mon they bo- iovo that the business can and will bo successfully carried on hero if the tariff , hat it , necessary to protect and foster it is maintained. The Welsh workmen who are leaving thuir native land to como to this country for employment do not have any doubt of the ability of the American people to establish this indus try on a firm foundation and to expand it until it is capable of meeting the demand mand of the homo market. The Eng lish papers that deplore the decline of the1 tin plato industry in Wales do not express any doubt that the businobs can bo carried on successfully hero , though they eagerly hope that the democrats will win this year and lane off the tariff that is responsible for the present con dition of the Welsh tin plate industry. In this direction Mr. Springier oilers them all thooncouragemont ho can. Ilo assures the foioign manufacturers of tin plate that if the democratic party is clothed -with the power of legislation at the coming election It will "speedily put an end to the existing order of things by either restoring the duty on tin plato to whore it was before the passage of the McKinley bill or else removing it en tirely. Undoubtedly the democratic party would take no half way stop , but would throw open the American market , by far the greatest in the world , to the free admission of Welsh made tin plate. It would without hesitation swoop out of existence the plants that have boon started in this country , confiscate the capital invested in them , and throw out of employment the workmen who are engaged In the industry , in order that foreign manufacturers might enjoy tin- restricted this great market and exact what they plunsod from the American consumer. The position of Mr. Springer in this matter is consistent witli the attitude of the democratic party over since the re publican policy of protection was Jlnt adopted , thirty years ago. That party has antagonized the efforts to build up every Industry we have , jubt as It is how doing tow u-a tin plato. It was de feated in its past ondodvors to check the industrial development of the country ami It will bo defeated now. 11W 11VKN I'AVI ! n'lhf , II7A' . A Bontlmcnt that is by no moans un common in Nebraska and other states of the west , and upon which now political onterptiBcs like that of the people's party tuubt always depend , is thus ro- foried to by nn able financial writer in the Now YoiU A'n : Tbo bollof U current , and gives rise to much despondent talk abor buiiness , ilmt unless speculation is rtfu tbo demand for lubor and" for goods in excess of tbo supply , and tno liveliest activity U displayed in nil departments of industry , tue country is Kolnn down bill and will soon laud every body in ruin. It imgbt as well DO said tuut u man is in goc.il bealtu 6aly wnou uU bluoil is at fiivor beat , UU uorvos strung' up to tbo blithest pltcb ana bo sloops but four hours out of the twenty-four. TUoro u sure to bo a reaction in hU cftio which will lenva htm \vorso oft than bis neighbor vvho o blood ro- mnlns nt its normal tompcrnturo , wbo tnkoi lifo easily , nnd who sleeps his full eight IIOUM nnd more , nnd BO tbcro Is in ttio ctno of n country when It Inilulcoi In n period of wild speculation , ns Uront Britain IVelj aid in Argentina investment ! , This is in refreshing contrast to the position assumed by the prophets of calamity who are In favor of adopting radical measures to force the business of the country from Its present ovou pace to a headlong gallop. If they coulil carry out their plans the blood that now pulses moderately through the arteries of trndo would bo tit fever heat directly , and the process of paying off mortgages nnd accumulating1 fortunes would bo BO rapid that everybody's head would swim. It would not bo long , however , before the inoxornblo law of compensation would make itself felt ; the reaction would come nnd disaster would bo the ultimate out come of the attempt to force prosperity. The steady , even pace is best. A STttlKlXO The St. Louis Glubc'Democrat is the loading republican paper of Missouri and is recognized as one of the great republican - publican dallies of America. The re cent attempts of the bummer and bondlo element ol St. Louis to force upon the party candidates that had a few years ngo sold the party nut and handed the city government of St. Louis over to the democrats provoke the following com ment : Edwnrd A.

" TUB DK31AND 1'OK MORU * OUItRKSOr. The populist loaders continue to play upon the credulity of their adherents by .oiling them that the great need of the country is moro currency. The remedy 'or all financial and business ills , ac cording to the exponents of the now party , is to issue paper money to an al most unlimited extent and make it a ogal tender for everything. "All who ilesiro an adcrjuato increase of cur rency1 exclaim the presidential candi dates of the populists in their address to " the people.'should at once regard it as iv conscientious duty to align themselves under the banner of this great industrial and fraternal movement , " and this ap peal is being everywhere made by the candidates of the now purty. There is nothing that the average in dividual is so strongly iniluenccd by as the promise of moro money , and when the glib-tonguod ad\ocatesof inflation liictuio to him the benefits and bless ; ngs ho would derive fioin an unre stricted supply of currency ho is apt to accept it nil with unquestioning faith , especially if ho bo largely a debtor. He does not stop to reflect that however great the volume of infancy , he can obtain what ho requires only by labor or the products of labor , nor does it occur to the average individual that if by icason of an inflated currency ho is enabled to got more of it for his dtiy's labor or a given amount of products he must also jive moro for what ho has to buy. In a word , ho docs not look into the ofloctsof currency inflation oxccpt so fur ns it holds out the promise of giving him more money , and it is to bo observed that the advocates of an "adequate in crease of currency" do not enlighten tholr followers as 10 the inevitable con sequences of inflation. There has been no time in the past ten years when there was loss reason or excuse for demanding nn Increase of the currency , beyond what is taking place under existing law , than there is at pres ent. Every where in the country thorois an abundance of money for legitimate business and to bo obtained on satisfac tory security nt rates of interest lower than over before. In the cnfatoTn finan cial cunteis money is loaned at 4 and 5 per cent , and there is a plentiful supply , There is no lack of money hove in Ne braska or elsewhere in the northwest. The banks of Omaha are holding mill ions which they would DO glad to loan on acceptable security. Throughout the ptosperons portions of the slain the bunks nro well supplied with money , which can bo had for ( torn 1 to" per cent loss interest than a year ngo. Tlio explanation is to bo found in thu greater prosperity of thu farmers , many of wlioin do not now lind it necessary to borrow and are either depositors or uro paying tholr obligations with money that finds its way into the banks. The populist demand for an increase of the currency to un extent which the lenders of that party profess to regard 1B as adequate is wholly indefensible. Tbo inevitable effect would bo to depreciate the purchasing power of the money that remained in circulation , and in the end nobody would bo benefited but specula tors. The present circulation is over $1,500,000,000 , or nearly $25 per capita , and it is being increased us rapidly us the growth of population nnd business requires , or us can bo dona with safety. Even us it is , it IB the opinion of able financiers that ilia expansion ot the cur rency now got 'An cnhnot bo continued much longer wH'bnut incurring the danger - ger of iollrlngg1d ( ? nnd sending it to a premium. The" Spuliat lenders are mis leading Sholrundiioronts on this ques tion , and In no other respect nro the principles and flo'i/iawls of that party so dangerous to thtngonornl welfare. The adoption of the1 currency policy of the people's party ftguld Inaugurate an era of disaster to then material interests of the nation unprecedented in our history. IT is gratifying to know that Iho charges of irregularities in the manage ment of thd state hospital for the insane at Hastings have boon shown to ho with out foundation. No public institutions are oftcncr subjected' to such , chnrgos than asylums for tlio insane , the accusa tions usually proceeding from dis charged inmates with lively imagina tions. In this case the charges came from a discharged oniployo , and the re sult of the Investigation shows that Uioy wore gioundless. ND kind of public In stitutions need moro careful , judicious and humane iiiiumiromentUmn hospitals for the insane , and it is ugrooablo lo learn that the Hastings asylum Is con ducted In a manner that cannot expose It to just criticism. r seems to bo a good prospect that tlio Western Art association of Omaha will soon bo incorporated and fairly started on a career of prosperity and usefulness. The capital stock is to bo $25,000 , divided into 1,000 shares , and us over 200 shales wore taken at the meeting Tuesday night it looks ns if tlio whole number would bo easily disposed of. If successfully carried out the plans will result in the building up of an insti tution that will reflect great credit upon this . city. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Tun report of the health inspector in regard to filthy I'alrlos ' on Cut-off island suggests the need of systematic milk In spection in this city. Without this precaution tlioro can bo no hocurity for public health , as it is well known that impure milk is always dangerous. Other diseases besides cholera are often bred at the sources of the milk supply , and if the dealers in this important article are loft to themselves some of them will bo sure to violate the laws of health. TUB latest Nebraska weather crop bulletin says that a greatly incrpased acreage of fall wheat is being sown in this state. This is a result of excellent crops of this important cereal In various parts of the state this year and indicates that a belief in the advantages of di versified farming is becoming general among those who have hitherto de pended almost entirely upon corn. Now that Dave Mercer has become a candidate for congress the question is , does ho propose toehold on lo the chair manship of the county committee and trade away all tlio candidates on the state and legislative tickets ? In other words , is the republican national , stale and county ticket to bo bacrifioed to the vaulting ambition of D"avo Mercer ? are almost as many loose planks in Omaliu sidewalks ns there are in the national democratic platform.

The Llvo Issue club began its fall and win tor series of fortnightly meetings last evening ut the L-iningor galloiy. President W. F. Maxtor made a foiv felicitous remarks about the work done by the club in the past three yeais anjl thought tbo outlook for the now your briffinnt with promise. And then Mr. V. ( J. Striclilor , the ullmnco candidate of the people's ' party for lieutenant governor diiected the thoughts of the gontlomeu pres ent toward the principles of tba party of which he is so slioug an exponent. In the past years all the oluglos nnd isms have had an airing ut thu hands of the members of the club una their invited friends , and it seemed especially In keeping with the policy of the cldb that the principals of the alliance should have a hearing nt tbo bauds of ono of its friends. The speauor staled by way of introduction that ho was not present to attack the party afllliatlons of any of the gentlemen present , but would simply set forth the faith that was in the people's party and rapidly truce the history of tbo movement which occupies so much tno attention of the thfnkeis of America today. With inteijections and sweet cnjollngs , as "dear brethiou " " friends " " , "my , "dear com rades , " "men of the republic , " "citizens of America , " ana the like campaigning terms , he presented an ideal picture of the republic. under the oonollcont sway of the alliance. Ho said that theplatlorin of the people's party could bo readily stated in thrco planks , the coinage question , transportation , which means the government control of railroads , and tbo assumption by tbo government of tbo railroad lauds granted lallroadsiu the years past and allowing these lands to bo assumed by the citizens of the country. Although attractively urosonted , there was Uttlo in Mr. Stnckler's resume of the prin ciples ot the people's party which has not been heard from every calamity howler and populist in thn country. A clever talker , fresh from the hustings , the speaker was quite nblo to Interest his teaiors lor on hour , aud the speech would malio a good campaign document for the alliance party. After u short recess the question was dis cussed by a number of the members , some of Mr. Strloltlor's theoiles being quite ex ploded , especially his assertions logardliig tU6 coinage of silver.
