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.

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

ast of these prolcstlntr exclamations is
