Till1 ; joint dobuto BOIISOU has begun in Iowa and tbo news of discoveries of natural ( jus is receiving very little at tention by tbo patriotic Ilawkoyos. Tun Nobrtmkti udvortlsinp train is in Illinois attempting to repair tbo in juries tlono tbis stuto daily by tbo calamity upocchcB of tbo dmnagogicixl populists. Tins is not an oIT your ; noitbor is it a year for political yellow doRS. Tbo great mass of voters will discriminate inoro than over between clean , capable man and tattooed canuldatcs who bavo no character. A TEXAS preacher has denounced the Christian ISndoavor society as un- Cbrlstian and harmful to the cause of rollfrion. It would bo intorosltnjj to ob tain that wild ranger's idea of religion and Christianity. TIIBRB is no logic nor connection in tbo speeches of tbo populist candidates in this stato. They cite a whole string of abuses , having no connection ono with another nor with any party and charge thorn all to republican legis lation. STANHOIM : , the Herald correspondent , is still consuming microbes with case and audacity , but Is becoming alarmed because of a threatened epidemic of typhus fever. IIow provoking it would bo to escape the cholera and ale of some commonplace disease like the fever I OMAHA Is paying some attention to politics , but moro to business. This fact is plainly shown by the tabulated clearing bouse reports compiled by Brndstrcot's. Omaha loads the whole country by far , showing an increase of 0.1 per cent over the corresponding ' week oMnst year. WHAT in the world is going to hap pen ? Here are the Board of Public JVorks and the county commissioners altylioltUnjj their sessions two days md of time. No ono Is so base as to jito that Saturday's convention proximity of election have any ing to do with it. jn the state is making moro rapid progrocs than South Omaha , and 1 tbo confidence c. * th'ovpopplo in the fu- Ituro of that bustling towtr-was.jioyor Vrcator than now. There is substantial ground for tbo fooling , since the Magic City is backed by a great industry that is auro to steadily grow as the territory which contributes to it develops. IF YOU employ a doctor you oxpoot to swallow his mediuino and follow his di rections about your diet. If you biro a lawyer you will hood bis counsel and lot him conduct your case in tbo court. If the lopubllciins want THE UKK to help elect their candidates they should boot Its advice and nominate tr.on whom an honest paper can commend without stul tifying Itself. PHOM almost every city in the coun try come reports of preparations for the celebration of Columbus day , Ootober 21. Are the schools of Omaha getting ready for that event , whioh is but three woolis distant ? Wo must not show a lack of patriotism on tbis occasion , whioh promises to bo ono of the memorable celebrations in tbo country's history. There is still time to prepare if no moro bo lost. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ \VlLii Saturday's convention do its duty ? That is a question which is In- torostlng thousands of valors in- this county who want to vote for republican candidates , but will not sacrifice tbo in terests of tills city and county by send ing boodlomcn and irresponsible elij'fltora to the legislature. Give the republicans of Douglas county clean and able candidates for tbo legislature and county ofllcos and they will be elected. IK 8KI.KCTINQ candidates for the leg islature the delegates to the Douglas county convoiitlon should not makothoW eoloctions by wards. It is immaterial in what part of the city any member livns so long us bo [ s available. In con fining selections to the respective wards ami ratifying the choice of a majority of vrard delegations the convention really puts it within the poworof five delegates to nntuo a member of the legislature. This practice almost Invariably results In inferior tickets. Another suggestion Tin : BEK ventures to make is the seloo- tl < ) ti of sovontl representative workingmen - men for the legislature. A ticket made up of lawyers and tradespeople will not draw from the class that tins moit o ( the votes to dolivur in November. OF The capltil of the populist party In fobraska consists largely of dofnmatlon of the stilo. The candidate of thitt > arty for governor , who hns received bis lighost political honors at the bands of his poonlo , U making bis campaign ipon statements which If received with credence by the rest of the country would repel from Nebraska both capital and population. Not a word for the nngnillccnt material growth of the stnto during tbo past twenty years. No expression of gratification for an almost unprecedented agricultural development vltbln n period of loss than half the Ufa of a generation. Not an utterance in commendation of the progress in every thing tlip.t conduces to tbo Intellectual and moral advancement of the people. No word of praise for practical achieve ment in every direction which hitrdly my other state in the union can boast ) f having attained In an nqual porlol uid which none has surpassed On the contrary , columns of calamity amontation. It Is proclaimed to the country that the farmers of Nebraska ire hopelessly burdened by mortgage- ndobtodnoss ; that their crops do not repay thorn the cost of production ; that they are suffering from a scarcity of nonoy ; that they are tbo victims of railroad oppress'on and the extortion of the usurer , and thai prosperity is on .ho decline instead of advancing. Such .11 outline is the picture which the popu- 1st leader in Nebraska draws of the condition of tbo people of tills state , one of tbo greatest in its agricultural capa bilities among the sisterhood of states , whoso fertile acres yield annually crops of greater value than the product of all tbo silver mines of the United States , tnd which still offers opportunities for the industrious and thrifty nowboro ox- colled. Igno.'lng tbo great body of facts which show tbo general progrosi and urosporlly of this people , the populist candidate for governor endeavors to justify bis dofuin ttion of Nebraska and its people by citing exceptional exam ples of failure or distioss among farm ers , and it Is by no means certain that in such cases ho does not sometimes liavo recourse to exaggeration. Nobody pretend ? that all tlio farmers In Ne braska are prospnrous. There are men engaged in agriculture in this state as in every nttito who are indolent , thriftless - loss and impractical , and such men could not prosper under any circum stances. If the supply of currency wore live times what the populists Tisk for this class of farmers would still bo in debt and still bo str.igglors behind tbo army of progress. Notlting that the government or any otbor power might do would keep those.poonlo out of the slough to which their lack of every quality necessary to success has doomed them. But taking the people of Nebraska as a wholn they are as prosperous as those of any ether agricultural state in the union , and enjoy as many of the com forts and advantages of life. They have been favored for tbo last two yearo with good crops , upon which they bavo re alized a fair margin of prolit , and not onlv hnvo they been enabled to cancel a largo amount of indebtedness , but they are materially richer by reason of tbo increased value of jhoir binds. There are very few farms in Nebraska that would not sell today for moro than they would have brought a your ago , and but for tbo calamity cry tb U has bson kept up by self-seeking politicians for the past two years they would bo worth still moro , because there would bo a greater demand for thorn. The oll'eot of dis paraging and discrediting Nebraska be fore the country , has thus boon a posi tive pecuniary dnrnngo to every farm owner in the state. It is inconceivable that the intelligent and patriotic people of Nebraska those who take pride in what has been achieved and have faith Ir tbo destiny of tlio state can fall to resent the un warranted and injurious misrepresenta tions of the populist loaders. They must under stand that the success of tbo candidates of tbo now party would bo _ regarded by the country as a vindica ; "tloiTofIhoij disparaging statements , and hardly anflWng cotild happen that would bavo worse consequences for Ne braska than this. It would bo a warn ing to capital to keep nw.iy from this state and an admonition to everybody seeking homos in the west to look for them elsewhere if they would bo pros perous and happy. ' 111V IU\\'A \ \ QAMl'AlUtf. Advices from Iowa present a favorable outlook for the republicans. They will undoubtedly regain most , if not all , of the congressional districts lost two years ago and there is not a question as to the election of tbo republic in presi dential electors. The delegation from Iowa in the present house of representa tives consists of six republicans and flvo democrats , and there is good reason to expect that in tbo b'ifty-third congress the number of democrats from that state will not exceed three , and it is qulto possible that tbo republicans tiny nmko a gain of four. The republican canvass , while not characterized by much noise or excitement , is being vigorously pushed and effective work is being done. The democrats are also at work , but they are not exhibiting tlio earnestness and enthusiasm whioh distinguished tbo stuto campaign of last year. Governor Boies is making appeals on the calamity plea , but this is not so influential as for merly , bacuuso the people as a whole are prosperous and there Is the testi mony of tbo governor himself , glvon only a few months ago , that such is the COEO. In his message to the last legis lature ho said ; Never In the history of Iowa bavo her people plo boon blcsiod with more conorul prosper Hy tbau they now onjoy. * * * \Vltuin- crenaea prices for thu products of our farms tins como u substantial advance in tbo mar net value of the agricultural lands of oui stato. A marked Imputus bai boon given U tlio upbullillug of our cltlos and towns.

It Is too soon after this utterance , made not for political effect but ns i truthful statement of the condition : then prevailing , to ronuw the calamity cry. oven If In Uio meantime the fnrmors of Iowa had not boon again favored with peed crops , and oxpont It to have Influ ence with intelligent people. But thu democrats have no other capital. Tlio populist party does not appear to bo receiving any consideration ns a fac tor in the contest. The republican situ ation scorns to be entirely satisfactory and a largo majority for the national ticket is confidently predicted. TK cfrr JIAIJ , i Tlio Investigation Into the crooked duals and jobs that are nnid to bavo boon perpetrated by coimcllmon , con tractors and the architect In the erec tion of the city hall building bids fair to become a disgraceful farco. The con troversy that led to the sham Investiga tion arose at first through the letter In which Mayor Bcmls caltod the attention of the council to glaring defects In the building , the neglect of certain con tractors to live up to tbo conditions of their contracts and Incidentally to the Inck of diligence in the supervision over tbo work on the pirt of the architect. This totter provoked Architect Ueln- dorff Into a counter communication to tbo council which was decidedly Inpult- lug to the mayor. It not only called in question tbo voracity of Mayor Bomls but also impugned his motives. Now , if this had boon purely a personal quarrel between Bomls and BoindorlT tbo taxpayers of Omaha would regard It with Indifference. But when George P. Homis in the discharge o < his sworn duty calls tbo attention of thn council to what ho believes to bo detrimental to the taxpayers and damaging to tbo city's interests , tbo controversy becomes n maitor of public concern. The ratiyor may be misinformed as regards tbo charges of collusion between councilmen - men and contractors ; ho may fail to prove that the architect distanced his competitors by agreeing to divide a portion tion of his foes between bis partner and certain members of tbo council , and it may bo iintruo that the building lias not boon constructed in a good and workmanlike nnnnar according to the specifications. But tbo motives of Mayor Bemis cannot bo impugned. It is n common saying that who re-thoro is niich sinoko there must bo some lire. L'ho smoke about the city hall building vtw very thick before the lirst stone was aid in the foundation and it bus been growing in density as the building ap- iroachcd completion. It is the dtitv of tbo council to clear ho skirts of such members as have been smirched by connection with the letting of the contracts and construction of the building. It is the duty of tbo commit- oo to ascertain whether the building is lefectivo , and if so whether the fault is vith the architect or with tbo con tractors ; whether the defects are the result - sult of incompotoncy , negligence in su- lorvinlon or collusion. The taxpayers of Omaha had a right ; o expect that this inquiry would bo con- luetod fearlessly and iinp.irtitilly until every vital point was probed to the bot- om. Any otbor course would only load .o tbo inference that the charges con cerning city hall construction are true. 1'ho action of the committee in ab- uptly refusing to continue its inquiry unless tlio mayor disclose the names of ill his informants is , to say the least , n Blunder. The mayor may have tbo very jest of reasons for withholding these lames. All that should bo asked of iiim is to produce the evidence and point out to the council the defects in plans or n tbo workmanship on the building. If : bo mayor decline to furnish uny proofs the committee can proceed through expert - port builders to ascertain whether the architect's plans are defective or whether tbo contractors have boon cheating. No other course will satisfy our oitix.ens. COSDIrlu s CONTRASTED. The American eommbsionors of Im migration who have boon investigating the causes of the unusual tldo of for eigners ( lowing to thjs country of late have found thr.t tiio largo Jewish immi gration' from Russia is duo to persecu tion and tbo system of espionage which prevails in that country , a fact which is very generally understood already ; but the general cause which holds good in nil parts of ISuropo is stated as follows : "Tho superior conditions of living in the United States , higher wagns , fewer hours of labor and the exemption from the exactions imposed by foreign gov ernments upon their citi/.cns , such as military duty , burdensome taxes , and regulations involving freedom of move ment and personal liberty , and the gon- ural belief that the United States pre sents bettor opportunities for rising tea a higher level than are furnished at homo. " This is doubtless a correct statement of tbo cuso and is worthy of particulat attention at this time , when olTotrs arn being put forth by political demagogues to convince the laboring classes of this country that their downtrodden condl tion cries aloud for the remedy whioh free trade offers. The investigation of the commissioners in regard to the untlcl patod immigration of tin plate worker * from Wales brought out some facts ol present interest. Commissioner Cross , who gave considerable attention to thit subject , was informed by the representatives tativos of the manufacturers that the tit plate workers of Wales would give the Unltod States the hardest light HIO evoi had in the Hold of manufacture and trudo. They told him that the men would voluntarily work for roducoc wages to make the light against this country successful , their interests bolnfc where their homos are. But the com missioner states that if the present do morallzation lu the Wales tin plate in dustry continues , thousands of mukon will como to the United States Booking employment. Those ofHcinl statements are at varl a n co with the repeated declarations o the free traders of our own country , wh ( say that the idea of establishing a til plate Industry hero in competition witl Walog is an absurdity. The Wolshmoi themselves evidently perceive , not enl ; that serious inroads upon their tradi have already boon made by tlio American can manufacturers , but that they have ivory i very unpromising future before them Not only are many of their men nov thrown out of employ men t , but tbosi who still remain at work will have tc make common cause with their employ rs by accepting reduced wngos In order o avoid bolng compelled to leave homo n Hoaroh of worsT This state of things ocs not hold o/t much bopa to the vago earners ofValos , and , no doubt , hey will growwonry _ of sacrificing liomselvos upon the altar of free trade on ? before the young tin plate industry f this counlr/jijas boon crushed out by uoh a mlsoramo system of competition. Vorklngmon miyit hnvo something bot- or to hope for | ( they are to preserve heir manhood at all. Tlio problem Involved in the immlgra- Ion oJ skilled labor from Europe , If In- cod it presents a problem at all , will uivo to bo loft to the future for solution. S'o doubt If sovor.il thousand tin pluto vorkcrs should como here now they vould bo un.iblo to find employment , ut If the development of this industry n the United Slates proves to bo like hat of other Industries hero that have Town to vast proportions from small oglnnlngs , it will not bo long before ho law of supply nml demand will ad ust the matter. For tbo present the ubjoct is chlolly Interesting for the 11- ustratlon which It affords of the bone- Its accruing to this country from pro * ccllon to homo Industries. TllK I'ATIt TO VlCTOlir. Tbo success of the republican ticket n tbis county will depend upon the class f men nominated by its convention bother or the legislature and county olllcos. 'lie nomination of any weak man voako'is the whole ticket. It is to the ntercst of every candidate that hlsasso- latcs on tbo ticket from top to bottom hall bo men of unimpeachable character ind rccogni/.od capacity. Every non- nittty and every black sheep put upon ho ticket drags down the cootl men on bo ticket. This cannot bo too strongly mpros ed upon the convention. Another fact Is that this paper can xort no inlluonco in favor of honest and 3apablo candidates if in tbo same breath t recommends men who are notoriously itshoncst , disreputable or incompetent. L'be paper that perverts tbo truth about non and measures for partisan ends vields nointlncnco with thinking ncoplo. On tbo contrary , Its support is a positive ujury to the cause it osnouscs. Its miiso does not inspire confidence and ts censure carries with it no weight , Tbo only safe course for the party is to enlist popular support not merely by the H'lneiples it advocates , but by the merit of the mon it seeks to place in olllco , IT HAS boon demonstrated by the luincrous jolntldfebatosln Nebraska dur- ng this campaign that moro volubility , iliough it may bewilder the minds of .hose . who nro incapable of thinking , does not moot the requirements of those vbo are seeking intelligently for , ho truth. Some very "talky" men are low on tbo btuuipifor tbo democrats and bo independents , .but their talk does not satisfy people o discernment for the rea son that it lacks logical consistency and HMotical comuipnsotiso , , without which t becomes moro wordy harangue and convinces nobody. The ropuDlic.xns are 'laving the debates all , their own way so rar as-argument' is concerned and are presenting facts and conclusions to the ) eoplo in su ii a manner as to carry con viction. The plain truth is that they , iavo the truth on their side and have only to present it in plain terms without subterfuge or evasion , while .heir opponents arc forced to employ the irts of tbo sophist and the demagogue. [ t is a great mistake to suppose that the Intelligence of the masses , though they nay not themselves bo skilled in con- Lrovorsy , is not keen enough to detect ind discard what is false and accept what they Know to bo truo. When tbo results of those debates are made known at the polls it will be soon that the popu lar judgment has not boon swept from its moorings of practical common sonso. TIIKHK are many people in Omaha and elsewhere in the west who have per sonal friends in tbo cnolora-slrlckon city of Hamburg. To such the appeal in behalf of relief for the suffering there will como homo with peculiar force , and no doubt the request for contributions that has boon published in tbis paper will result in placing a largo sum of money in the hands of the gentleman who has boon authorized to receive it in this city. But the contributions for this worthy cause should not bo conllnod to those who are inlliiuncod by the tics of birth or kindred. An awful calamity has overtaken the people of Hamburg and their distress must appeal to the charitable impulses of tnoir fellowinen of all nationalities. Tlio contributions need not bo largo enough to make any individual giver tbo poorer , hut they should bo numerous enough to aggregate - gate a handsome sum.

The now llbdrnl government of Uroat llrhaln has dona ono thing , In the nnmo of Mr , Morley , the secretary for Ireland , which hns carried Joy to the hearts ot the party and to the Irish pcoplo ; It hn * . revolted the coer cion act of 18S7 , of which Mr. Hallour , dur ing hli socrotnryslilp , made the tmMt , and the worst possible use. l or flvo years the /rlsh people hnvo boon thn victims of prac tically nil irromovabln English constabulary and Judiciary , from whoso nets tbcro was no appeal , although they were often manifestly partlnl , arbitrary and In contomntof ju&tlco anil IU ordinary forms In clvlllzod countries , Now , by Mr. Morloy's edict of revocation , the Irish have the same rights nnd the snmo protection under the law as those enjoyed bv their British neighbor. * * . When the HbornU triumphed In the recent elections It was commonly bollovcd that almost the Ilrst thing rtono by the parliamentary majority would bo the rapoal of the unjust , nITonslvo and frequently cruel coercion act , but It was not expected that its operation would bo snspomloil , as It has been , prior to its ropcnl. That its revocation was good politics cannot bo doubted , In view of tbo peaceful condition ot Ireland during the last two years , and of the other fact that It was necessary the now government should do something oC a decisive character favor able to Ireland in order to bind and hold the Irish momoors , especially these ot the l > ar- nolllto faction , to It. 13von the lories' own Journals concede tnat Lord Salisbury's trov- ormncnt blundered when it pimoil tlio coercion act , nnd that it mndo n serious mis take when it neglected to repeal the l.\w after it became manifest that it had survived the little , If any , excuse It once had for Its Impo sition upon the people of Ireland , Italian politics nro ut present exceptionally intcrcstini , ' to pcoplo outside of Italy , and this for a good many ronsons. Attention has boon c.illsil to the report that tbo Inlluonco of the Vatican Is likely to bo thrown with tlio re publican party lu Italy. That party is already considerable , and it Is very certain to grow rapUly while the present condition of Italy continues. There is no question about the misery and the discontent of tlio Italian pcoplo , and there nro conditions that tnovitn- biy operate against the existing government In the imbllo mind , even whoa tliera Is no reason why they should do so. But in tbo case of Italy there Is a rcasun. It is the burden - don of taxation that opprosso ? Italy , and tins Is a direct eonioquonoo of the policy of Ivtng Humbert and hU advlsoiv ) . Italy Is an o.irthon pot simmering with the bra s pots. The shocks that Germany nnd Austria can endure may send her 10 the bottom. Moreover it is very doubtful whether the national interest im- pnls Italy to the triple alllanco , nnd not merely the personal vanity and dynastic urn- billon of thu monarch. The best safeguard Italy could take , both for her own integrity and for tbo peace of Europe , would probably bo a freedom from entanglements with any ether power , yno has nothing to do with the revenges of franco on the ono hand , or with the Interests of Germany on the othor. If sbo maintained an nrtnv : ma a licet as largo as could Do kept up without imposing an oxccsslvo burden upon her ponplo , and no aagor , nobody would venture lightly to assail her or drive her in'.o the opposing camp. And this Is doubtless the course she vould pursue if her government were pop ular and reuubltcan and the chief magistrate lad no interest apart from that of the people. * The flcltlonoss ot the Gorman emperor's moods In matters concerning the Lilsmarcks s ono ot the most curious fuaturos of court Ifo Just now. One day the emperor blows lot and shows symptoms of desiring a recon ciliation ; the next day ho blows cold and lolnts a fresh snub at Frlodnctisruho. The secret of this chaniraablcnass is supposed to bo tuo division among the omneror's ad- uirers , as well ai tbo emperor's fear that ho nay seem too anxious. The courts ot Sax ony , Uavarta , Baden nnd Weimar , besides many members of the high Pritssl an arts- : ocracy , undoubtedly favor a reconciliation , ount Uaprlvi , whom BUmarcic continues to ridicule aud denounce , is ugalust a raconcll- atlon on tbo ground that the gov ernment would bo lowered before the people jy the emperor's confessing friendship with ts bitterest antagonist. The ompjror Is in clined , Independently of all advisers , to favor in outward reconciliation , nt , least , to save Inmsolf fioui popular reproach for Ingrati tude. At the same time ho will not take the lirststop. Embarrassed by considerations of dignity and by a multitude of advisors , noooay can guess wbat ho may do next. Ono thing , however , Is certain ; Bismarck will never bo invited to return to power. The reconciliation would bo only for spectacular or sentimental reasons , and every court In Germany , as well as most of the aristocracy , agrco with Chancellor Caprivl that it mlirlit bettor hover take place than bo n precursor of 1'rlnco Bismarck's return to power. it The latest correspondence trom Calcutta that has reached l ondon shows that the pub lic anxiety ever the depression of tno rupee is deepening constantly , especially slnco the publication of the report that tbu British government will civo no hint of Its inten tions until nftor tbo international silver con ference.
