Tun railroad employes had a bill be fore the Wisconsin legislature to make their companies liable for accidents to Iho employes , ruid the democrats , under the control of the corporations , defeated the bill. Of course the democrats now regret it. Hut it is too Into.

Ho is now in Chicago again , but bo Is not saying a word on that Ktibjoct NO'OXK has over seriously doubted that Harrison would carry Illinois , but it was at ono time apprehended that Governor Fifer might bo defeated by Judiro Altgold , the democratic candi dato. However , the Into advices from that state show that the Lutherans are giving Altircld the cold shoulder and this ensures Fifor's re-election. Tins heart of Chairman Hnrrity is eoro.

In designating October 21 ns the dtiy on which the pooploot the United Status should colobrnio the discovery by Col umbus of the now world n , proper regard wns hnd for the conflict in reckoning tlmo between the ' ' " 'old and now styles , or the Julian and Gregorian calendars , It wns Indeed upon October 12 , M92 , that Columbus discovered land , but the JOOyonra which Imvo elapsed slnco then could not bo fully rounded out under the now style of reckoning until October 21 , 1892. Today , therefore , is the true quadrocentonnlal nniilvorsary of the discovery of land by Columbus , The national observance of this day , for it Is mudo a national holiday by act of congees - gees ? , will bo ono of t'to ' most inomor- able events in the history of Iho United StatoA It will bo interesting and appropriate at tills tlmo , when thn popular mind is so largely engrossed with this subject and lluds in it a welcome relief from political controversy , to tuko a gUxnco at the record of the voyage which hxs : had such wonderful robtilts for mankind. It was on the morning of Friday , August 't , 1102vthat Columbus , having received the sacr.uncnt , led his llttlo company of 120 souls to his Hoot of three vessels lying at anchor In the roids of Salto/ , near I'alos. Two hours Kiforo noon the anchors were hoisted on bo.ird and th-j voyage , progimnt with consequences in finitely boyoml the most d irlng dreams of anybody engaged in il , began. Columbus Iiul : boon "ongapod at Pales for olovoti weeks in organising his company - pany , equtppiiu the vussols and Pitting out the expedition. Great dilllculty was encountered in procuring soamun and it was found necessary to olTor liberal in ducements in order to got men to join the expedition. Indeed , ns a last re source , force was cinployod , the comple ment of the crows being ultimately made p by impressment. Tins a proportion f Iho common seamen who went on this nest important of all voyages of oxplor- tiou was composed of refugees from ustico and captives of the press gantr. The llireo vesjMs comprising Uio ( loot vcro named tlio Santi Maria , the Pinta nd tlio Nina. The llr&t was the Hag- hip of Columbus and w.is a decked craft. The others wcro caravels , or undecked 'oatsof ' small s'r/.c , specially lltlod for xploring in she ,1 waters. The Hoot vas supplied with jirovislons lo last a oiir. On September 0 , thirty-four day-4 ftor leavinir Pales , the tiny llcot left ho Canary isles , having made only a ricf stop there , tis Columbus was in- brined that a Portuguese Hoot of three iion-of-wur was approaching the Canar- os. Apprehensive of being intercepted weighed anchor and .stood vwnytotho west , leaving behind the ast land on the margin of Iho uncrossed leop. It is recorded that many of the ailors wept , and thnt most of thorn wore nil of forebodings of disaster. Colum bus quieted tlioir fears and stimulated horn with gorgeous pictures of the ivoalth about to become theirs. On September 1C the vessels entered ho bull of trade wiuus and two tlay.-j atcr came into the son of seawocd now cnowu as the Sargasso. On the lth ! ) a ounding line was paid out from the lagship , but no bottom was found , at oven 200 fathoms. On the 20th a change sf wind from cast to southwest iiiopir- tort the seamen , who had feared that ho east wind , which had blown steadily fp to that day , was constant and would prevent thnlr return. A storm oc curred on September 23 , and tlio crow nsihtcd that the expedition Hliould bo given up , but the gale soon subsided , mu Columbus reassured his conipan- ons. On October 1 Columbus calcu- alod that the lleet was 70S leagues from .ho Azores and would discover some and in Iho Ktist Indies in forty or fifty , uoro leagues. On October 7 the Nina loistcd the land signal , but the sup- ; joscd discovery was found to bo a cloud. The various crows , which had been nanifostlng some irritation , now became turbulent and plotted to thro-v the lead ng olllccrs overboard ana to return , but 10 overt act was committed. On O tobor 11 tlio Plnta took in a block of rudely carved wood , while the Nina found a thorny branch with rod berries. When night came down the course , which had boon west-southwest , was changoil to due west , ami after vespers olumbus doubled tli3 watch and o fered ns a prize to thu man who first sighted land a silken doub'.ot. ia addi tion to the sum of 10,000 muravodis , equivalent to about $110 , oll'ored by Isa bella before the float Hailed. At 10 o'clock Unit evening the nilmlial saw light. lie summoned two of the ship's oilleors , ono of whom also saw the light , four hours later , or at 2 a. m of Fri day , October 12 , 1-19U , a gun w.is fired from the Plntx This wai the night signal for discovering Innd. The dis covery on board the Piuta was mudo by Hodrlgo Triana , a common Bailer , Tlio pri/.o was subsequently awarded to Co lumbus on account of sighting the light , thougn Triuna first saw actual land. At dawn the land was soon to bo heavily wooded and crowds of darlc- Kklnncu nativcH were observed. Mo-its were lowered from the lleet at sunrisa and Columbus and these whom ho had designated to r.ccompany him wont to the land. The admiral wns the llrst to stop upon the ba.u'.h and when all were InndeU they knelt down and Kisjoil iho ground and thanked ( ijd. The royal banner was then unfurled and ( . 'olumbus tool ; possession of the laud in the name of tlio orowu of C.istilu , ono of the iu heritancuB of Isabella , which had paid sovon-olghlhs of the expanse of the ox- peuition. The idl-itul , oaj ot tlio Bahama group , Columbus named Sin Salv.ulo. ' . The natives gaaod at the strnngu speetucte in fright nnd sllonce. Columbus obsjrved that Home of them were yjlil anuloti , aud learning by hlgns that tlioy had oblalnol the oriin- mauls from a country lo the south he seized uevoa of the native * and sailed away southward in quest of tha gold. In the soaroh he discovered others of the Huhami Islands and Haytl. The oxpalltlon returned to Pales March 15 , MO.'I , eovoa months and twelve days from the date of departure. UN A SULIO A prominent Omaha business man on holng nskod to explain why tlioro is less building thuu ueuul in the city at pres ent replied that lie hud r.tkcd himself Iho snmo question nntl had como lo the conclusion that the falling off wfts tluo to n , tondonoy among the people to save their money nud await developments. Ho pointed to the remarkably Inrgo ninoiml ot money on deposit In our banks ns proof that this is nn era of ac- cumulatfon in Omaha nnd that Iho wealth of the people Is being hoarded In niiUelpatlon of Improved opportunities of Investment in the future. It cannot bo denied that real estate and building transactions Imvo decreased of Into , whllo the general activity In business circles embracing enterprises estab lished In the past has Btoadlly increased. It Is a peculiar feature ot the present lifo of the city that whllo there Is it , steady growth in the capacity and pros perity of the industries already ostnb- lishod and constant Improvement of property everywhere , there tire few noV investments of any kind , Perhaps it would bo too much lo ex pect the city to keep up the extraordi nary pace by which it has progressed in a comparatively few years to a conspic uous position among the commercial centers of the west. It Is natural that a period of long strides should bo fol lowed by ono of loss vigorous advance ment. But while the appa-ont progress it * lass marked than formerly the sub stantial growth goes steadily forward. Speculation is at a low ebb hero as else where , but In tlin accumulation of wealth the ciVlzons of Omaha never have made greater progress th.in at present. Tlio savings of the "common people" that is the wage earners and all who are not engaged in business enterprises requir ing continuous investment of capital nro greater now than ever boforo. In almost every community there are periods of booming activity 'followed , through the operations of a natural Inw , by periods ot comparative quiet. Out. it is bettor to uivo a steadyund healthy growth with a constmt accumulation of wings than a dozen "booms" by which ho spirit of speculation and oxtrava- nneo is encouraged. Those who nro nest competent to form a just opinion n the subject believe thut the apparent iiactivity of which some complain is bye o means tin Indication of relapse or t-ignatloii. mower Tin : UTATK. Tlio highest duty that devolves upon ho voters of Nebraska in the election of , hls year is to protect the state against ho injury that Wuiild result from the uccnss of the party whoso mlsrcpro- dilutions have retarded its progresp uriiig the past two years. Kvory intcl- igei.l business man knows that great larm has been done Nebraska by the lorsistcnt assertions of the new party icop'.o that Nebraska was not prosper- us , that her farmers wcro suucring rom : v heavy burden of mortgage in debtedness nnd wcro otherwise op- iressed , and that agricultural prod no- ion was unnrolitablc. It is true that otwithsttinding these false statements Nebraska has advarccd , because people , vho Imvo taken the trouble to investi gate discovered that the conditions wcro eing misrepresentedbut agront many , undoubtedly , who have been looking .vestward . for investment and settlement lave been influenced acainst Nebraska jy these calamity statements and have- jono elsewhere with tlioir capital and hoi" industry. The populist leaders , with most rock- ess itidilYoronco to tlio material tutor ials and welfare of Nebraska , tire still lending out their cliargos that the pi-o- ) lo of the state are hopelessly debt- iiidcii. and that there is littio real iirosporily among Ihoui. They not only declaim these statements from public platforms and through the columns of their organs , but they tell hem lo Hie correspondents of cast- urn papers , where they can do the nest harm. It is dillicult to properly characterize men who will thus defame i state and imperil its welfare in order o promote their political advantage , but no patriotic citizen will iiced to bo , old how to derxl with them. To entrust o such men the administralion of ifl'airs would bo an act of stupendous folly. Nebraska is nrosporous , and Iho con dition of her people as a whole will com pare favorably with that of tlio people of .my . other agricultural state in the union. But sue would bo moro prosper ous were It not that she has been grossly itml unwarrantably misrepresented. It is time that an overwhelming rebuke were administered to these who are guilty of this , and if Iho opportutuly to do BO js not improved there will bo dun- ger of Nebraska going backward. If the popular verdict in November is an endorsement of tlm calamity statomonls wo must expect that Iho whole country will accept them as true , and there can bo no doubt as to what the ctlect of thai would bo. SUKaKXTIVH TO fill' t'AllMUK. While Iho advo/atos of free Irado in Iho United Stales are prosecuting their first campaign upon a platform squarely nnd unequivocally representing their policy , the greatest free trade country in the world is beginning to show nn in clination to t'ocodo from that uolloy. Lord Salisbury was not Ignorant of the sonlliii'jnls of the KngUsli puoplo upon this subject when he said a few months ngo that tlio only hope of England in tlio sharp competition of our limn lay in Ihu adoption of protection , iOvon the London 'J'uncs , the hist journal that would bo expected to entorlaln the fdoa of relinquishing the old free trade pol icy , has lately published several articles f.'otncontributors in which the urgent need of some lorm of protection for the depressed agricultural interests of Eng land Imvo boon strongly sot forth. One writer in that journal says : "It cannot bo too often repeated that not much more than half the area of wheat la grown In England now as compared with the acreage annually grown half n can- lury ago : tJ52,000 ( acres in 1888 Imvo been reduced lo 2,220,000 in 1892. At twenty-eight bushels per acra a low enough avonisro that moans 40,000,000 bushels which might he grovyn at homo now purchased from abroad , and Ifi90- , 000 acres of good English wheat hind thrown out of Ullage.1 Tlio same writer says thai England "will Hhortly bo dependent for at least nine months' supply out of the twelve upon foreign food Bluffs. " As a remedy for the slnto of things complained of It is proposed to f jR a farmers' Icnguo for securing protection to npriculluro. Tlio Belfast -iY jj , i-Y > Hrr , commenUng upon the same Sjftijoot , says : "Land jroos out of llHaW I6r.nl production of food decreases , fimcrs ( _ pot away to other counlrlos , IsOjKrcrs rush into elites and lowns , the rjifiil illslrlcls nro de populated , and Klio population must , clonoml upon foro/gn supplies. Free trade is the cnusu fif the trouble , nnd the remedy wllljfbo found in Iho modi fication of iho flsobtr&vsloiTi. & " The American po"oplo do not concern themselves much nbottt English affairs , nnd comparatively few In this country keep themselves informed In respect lethe the Industrial and social problems by which the English people are con fronted. The free traders are trying to take advnnlngo of this tnrillTorauco and Inckot information mid hope to Inau gurate their favorite policy before It bo- comus generally understood in thld coun try lhat Iho snmo policy is producing disaster and discontent in free trade England. If there is any nation ou the earth thnt can flourish with gates thrown onoii wide to eompolUors it Is Great Hiit.nin. In lhat country industries thai have been established for many years tire backed by untold millions of wealth. Moreover , these industries Imvo the ad vantage of having controlled the Ameri can market long before competition on our part was deemed possible. lJut for Iho protective policy that has boon en forced by the United Stales Uriltsh con- Irol of the markets ot this country could never have boon shaken oil. In recent ycurs , and particularly since the full force of the McKlnloy tariff law began lo bo fell , llioro has bcon a growing fooling of dissatisfaction in England and an increasing conviction that free trade is no longer conducive to the welfare of or people. The quotations which wo invo presented relate only to ngrlcul- ural products , but it is well known that ompliiinlsof industrial depression have eon rife in England for moro than near oar past , and have be-on especially igorous during the past summor. The subject is full of interest and uggcstion for the American farmer. The decline ot agricultural interests in jrcat Uritain under frco trade must ommand attention nnd serious rellec- ion ou Iho part of the agriculturists of ho United States. The farmers of this ountry are nrospering under n nrotoc- ivo ItirilT while Ihoso of England are lonfcssouly suffering under free trade mil clamoring fos proleelion. The nb- upt and sweepitjtr Change proposed by he frco trade democracy , of which Srover Cleveland- the chosen ox- implar , would bo fraught with danger o a thousand interests of this country nd the interests ofj ! the farmer would lot escape. TIIK Now VorkbiS'un has invented this now battle cry ft | its , own use : "No brce bill ! No feu oral inlorforauco with lections ! No frco' ] trade talk ! " The ast of these prolcstlntr exclamations is iddresscd to the domocnilic party and ims a ring ot ' sincerity- about it , but the ivarning com'el too. lale. Having made Is bed the democracy must lie in it. Tin : president of the Milk Dealers as- oclation declares that "tho inspection s a fnn-o all around and the officials know it. " If Ills sluloraents are lo be relied upon il would bo a good idea to nslitulu it reform while public appro- iiension is aroused on the subject of ittro food and wholesome living goner- illy. _ i'rotrutiim 1'iiyn. ttliiliC'lJemucrat.
