Tl outlook is peuorally rogmdcd as piomi ing by our retail merchants , while tl jobbers coatiuuo to wear smiles. The proslilonttftl election xnllbohold two weeks from todny. The CRtnpiiign thus far has boon less domonetratlvo nnd exciting than any national content within the memory of the oldest voter , n condition for which sovornl reasons nro ndvnncod. Mr. Hlnino stiggoBts that it may bo accounted for by the growth in population and the consequent ab sorption of the public interest In vast commercial nnd llnnncinl operations , or it mny possibly Indicate ] a subsidence in Iho future of oxlromo partisanship. Another suggestion is that the general adoption of .reformed ballot laws has rendered los ? necessary old campaign methods , white still another is that the majority of voters are this year to a far greater extent than uiual thinking for themselves. Atanyrato the campaign has boon exceptionally free from oxclto- mont , and it appears probable that this will continue lo Do the case , except per haps in spots , to the ond. What is the outlook ? is n question which millions of voters are asking. It is a question very dlfllctilt to answer , owing to the complication arising out of the unknown voting strength of the third party and the uncertainty regard ing the result of the fusion of that party and the aoinooiwy in certain states. It appears to be the vlow of the man- ngers of the two great parlies that the contest will be decided by the votes of Now York and Indiana , and hence their olTorW are being larycly concentrated upon those ttnlo. There aro-111 votes in the electoral college , an incronso of forty-throe alnce the election of 1888 , and the successful candidate must bavo at least liL' , ' ! . The state * that voted for Harrison in 1SSS ea t IWI votes , but this year thoj will have 1MO votes on account of the now apportionment under the census of IWIU. The stales that volod for Cleveland in ! 8SS had IDS votes and tills year they will have 175. The now slates to cnsl their olector.il votes for the first tlmo are : Idaho , ii ; Montana , : ! ; North Dakota , . ' ! ; Soutli iXilcota , 4 ; Washington , 4 ; Wyoming. - ) ; total , 20. It may as wi-ll ho coui'otled at the out set that the di'inocru'-s will got the 15 ! ) electoral votes of the solid south. This loaves 28j voles in the north to bo di vided between the parties , and in order to be chosen by the oTeetoral college Mr. Cleveland must capture 01 of those. If ho carries Connecticut and Now .lersoy , as ho did four yours ago , this willjgivo him 10 , leaving 18 votes to bo bceurod elsewhere 'n ' the north Should lie cirry Now York and Indiana ho would have If ino.-o voles llian nocjasary , and Wisconsin , to which Uio democratic managers are looking hopefully with New York , would give him just the re quired number of vote * , for election. The 14 voles of Michigan will bo divided , but it is impossible to say what number each party will gel. Conceding to Mr. Harrison all the states ho carried four years aero except New York and Indiana and only half the vote of Michigan , it gives him 1)1 ! ) voles , leaving thirty-two to bo se cured in order to bo elected. For those the republicans must look to Iho now states with" twenty votes , Now York with thirty-six and Indiana with liftoon a total of spveiity-ono votes. Upon this showing it will bo seou that the ro- iiublicaiis can oleot their candidate if they carry Indiana and seventeen of the votes of flio now .stale's , or if Ihoy carry Now York and lo o Indiana and all the now states , while-liould tHey carry both Now York and Indiana they could spare nineteen votes beside- , those of the slates which will vote for the first tune this year in a national oloclion. Obviously as between Iho republicans and the democrats the situation is moro favorable to the former , but hero arises the unanswerable question as to the pos sible results of pnnulifat and democratic fusion. In any event , however , there is nothing In the outlook lhat ought to discourage the republicans , though the Hitnnlion domnnds lhat they permit no abatement of zeal and olTort in the cam paign. It in wise lo recognize the fact that it is a close fight and must bo kept up vigorously lo Iho end. ii OF .iMWtir.ix cm/as. / A wonderful industrial growth in the citlot , of the United States is shown by Iho series of reports now being issued by the census bureau. It appears that the total product of Iho manufactories of Now York , Philadelphia and Chicago fur Iho census year of 18 ! ) ! ) was $1,0(50- ( i > 00,000 , compared with 81.040,200,000 in 1880. The product of these three cities is greater than the aggregate manufac tures of the Unltod States as reported by the census of ISfiO , and the increase in their products from 1880 lo 1800 was nearly as great as the increase in the whole country from 1B70 to 1880 , While Now Yorl : still retains the su premacy as a manufacturing center , the increase has boon greater in Chicagc than anywhere ol.ie. The Increase in population and in nuiiiufactiiroa in tin thrco cilie ininieil has boon as follow : during Iho Ion years lhat have elapsed slnco Iho lasl eoiisiis : Now York , popu laliou tIO.02 pur cent , manufacture' .r > G.iO : per cent : Chicago , populatloi 118.58 per cent , manufactures MRS per cent ; Phlladolphln , ponulillon SIt.O per cent , manufactures lis.ol per con t It will bo foon Hint Chicago's percentage ago of growth in'pDpulation and iniinu acturesis enormously in oxcassof tha of the groat. casturn cities with whic comparison Is made , The census ligurc concerning the growth of manufacture in all of the western cities show thn tlioy are m vkiiig raplu advancement T11O-.0 of Omaha , published n few duy a.o , proved Ih il this oily is not an o.\ Hot , to the gcnur.il rule thai the wcslor cities are taking grout btiidos in mam fat-luring industries. It ibilillleiilt to roallzy that the nvuu facturing industries of the United State nrn htill in their infancy , but this is see to bo tlio case wlion comparisons ar presented like thoto given nbovo. 1 three cities are now turning out mor manufactured products than the whol country did thirty years ago , it is clen that the industries of the United State .aro dost Uuul to altnin enormous propo tlons. Conditions now exist whic i-o favur growth us much as those of 111 10s pist. The population of Iho country s- increasing prodigiously by s10 year yea 10 and with tlio ino'onsed population ar ( 'rowth in wealth will certainly con nn onlnrgod demand for manufactured products. In the nature ot things the manufacturing will bo chiefly done In the oltlcB. Their production of articles needful to supply n multiplying population - f tion will steadily Incronso to moot the demand. It will bo so in Omaha as well as in other cltios which are natural sources of supply for a wldo territory. thnt is daily becoming moro thickly peopled , Every now manufacturing in dustry adds to the population of the city by creating a demand for workmen , and increased population moans en larged business in every lino. In the city of Buffalo the vnluo of manufac tured products has Increased from $42- 900,000 In 1880 to S00400,000 in 1800 , and the population has Increased 100,000 In the ton years. Does anybody doubt that the industrial growth noted is the primary oauso of tlio increased popula tion ? The same rule holds good every where , and will apply as well to Omaha as to any other city. AtWUT MOIlTaAdU IXDUltTEDXKSS. The facts presented In Tin : BisE of Monday regarding mortgage Indebted ness wore a complete and conclusive refutation of the repeated populist as sertions on this subject. The statistics given were collected with great care from olllclal records , a source of information mation to which the traducers of Ne braska have not gone , and Ihoy can bo accepted with unquestioning confidence by all who are interested in this much discussed and grossly misrepresented subject. The truth which tlieso facts vouch for is that within the past three years there has boon a groattlocroasoinlho amount of mortgages filed ; thai there has boon an increase in tlio value per acre nnd a largo decrease in the amount of prop erty mortgaged ; that Iho debt incurred ins boon reduced to a considerable unount ; that Ihe mortgaged properly is > vorlh moro than twluo Iho amount of ho debt , and lhat there has boon a toady decline in the per capita of debt ncurrod. Il is shown that the mort gage indebtedness of Nebraska is but itllo moro than one-half of what il has boon assorlod lo bo by Iho people who ire seeking lo discredit this state , and ivhoso misrepresentations during tlio ) ast few years have done il tmnioasur- iblo damage. Wo commend tbeso stalistics to the : aroful perusal of all intelligent and 'air-minded mon. It could bo wished that the farmers of Nebraska owed less noney ; that all of them owned their possessions free of debt , as many of them do. But Ihoy are by no means as a class in the Impoverished and distressed condition in which the calamity howlers represent them to bo , and the great uody of them do not need any such ' 'relief" as it is proposed to provide by sub-treasury and flat money schemes. Wo make no hazardous statement when wo say that Iho condition of the farmers of Nebraska will cotnparo favorably with that of the producers of any ether slalo in Iho union , wlillo Ihoir oppor tunities , under judicious and conserva tive legislation affecting their interests , are equal to the best. Danger lo their interests and to the general prosperity lies in approving the inisroprosontalions of demagogues whose motives and aims are wholly solflsh. H'lWAT KUI > 1 > 1\ ' . Europe looics to India as one of its greatest sources of wheat supply , and it appears from a recent report of the De partment of Agriculture at Washington that the product of India for 1892 is the Hiunllcst harvested since 1SS1. It shows u falling off from last year's crop of o'.io3l,0'JQ ( ' bushels , or 21 per cont. The uvoracro is reduced by moro than 2,000- 000 acres , and the yield per aero is only 8.4 bushels. This would bo considered rather a small yield in the United States , and is considerably bolovv the average reported for Nebraska this year. It is intorosling to nolo that the stal- islician of Iho Department of Agricul ture finds reason to believe that there is lilllo probability of an increase in wheat produclion in India , The fad that there has boon a largo falling off in acreage in that country this year , and the additional fact that tiio yearly average of acreage has been constantly growing smaller sineo 1885 , would seem to justify this boliof. This is of consid erable importance to the American farmer , for it indicates thai ono of Iho most formidable coaipolilors of Ibis country in the wheat market of Europe is not likely In the fuluro to moot ilt : share of Iho world's wheat demand. The demand naturally increases from year to year and must bo supplied from omo fiourco. The American producl ian bo made as great as need bo , nnd no matter what Iho ciomand may bo it will bo mot by tho" American farmer if he can bo 'reasonably certain of fair prices , If the shortngo in India is as great m staled this year it is to bo expected thai an improvement In the European market kot will soon bo shown. A UlCAI , MANUFACTUHKU'S I'/BHTf. The head of ono of the largest maun facturing concerns in Omaha nays Ilia ho has bis plans Hindu for extensive ad ditions to his factory in case of the election tion of Ilnrrlbon , but that the enlargement mont will nol bo mndo if Cleveland b elected. This is purely u mutter of busl ness with him , nnd partisanship ha nothing to do witli it , A removal of tti p otoutivo tariff upon Iho articles prc ductid bv tills firm , would expose it t foreign competition , which it could nc at present withstand , and under sue conditions an onlargomonl of its faoil : tics would not bo thought of , if , induce' it should bo able to continue business n all. all.This This is only ono instance among man by which the pculimonls of business mo concerning the tariff uoslion tire show in u practical way. There are otht manufacturers in this city , and union them bomo llfo-long democrats , who ar not u lilllo disturbed by the possibilit of the triumph of free trado.

The telegraph polo nuisance to which this city has submitted for so many ycnrs is actually growing from bad to worso. There is not another city of equal population" ! ) ! 'America thnt pre sents Buch a forest f poles and danger ous network of overhead wires ixs Omaha. It was expected naturally that tlio pro spective talcing down of telephone poles would bo preceded by the taking down of the unsightly telogrnph poles , at least on the principal thoroughfares. In- , Blend of lhat the council lias , by resolu tion , crnntcd a permit to the telegraph company to replace Its poles on Farnam street with larger poles , carrying moro wires , and the work is now being dono. It would scorn as if tlio pcoplo of Omaha had no representation in the council. There is nothing that a fran chisee ! corporation asks for that it does not got and there is nothing thnt the people want that they can got at the hands of the council without the consent of Iho corporations aim contractors. Why should not the telegraph com pany bo willing lo do for Omaha what it has done in other loss pretentious cities ? Why shouhl thuy porslsl In ob structing our principal business thor oughfares with monster poles and on- dnngor our business blocks and the lives of our firemen by stringing numberless wires which can nnd nupht to bo placed under ground ? Is there never to bo any relief from the wire nuisance ? IT WAS a master stroke of wolitlcnl nbillty which prompted the republicans of Davenport to secure n speech from Mr. Cnarlos Foster , secretary of Iho treasury , last Saturday evening. Dav enport is the city of Iowa which is most interested in a Bound currency , for its savings banks are by far the largest and most numerous of any city in the state. Secretary Foster made many re publican votes by his exposition of the wildcat plank of the democratic plat form nnd by pointing to the republican party's snfo record on money. There is also at Davenport , as in every city in Iowa , a great increase of the republican veto Ibis year by reason of Iho return of anti-prohibition republicans to their party. This is going jto bo a great year for republicanism Iowa. THE prospect now , is that the next council will bo noHinprovetnont on tbo present council. 'JQur'taxpayers appear lo bo allogethen indifferent , but the franchised corporations and eonlrnclors were never moiuj , aclivo. , The boodle candidates are getting substantial aid and spending coi'bordtion money very freely in the saloons , while Iho very few decent men who have been nomi nated arc liable tq bo''snowed under. In any other city but corporation-ridden Omaha there would bo an uprising of the taxpayers and business men to purge the city by presenting citizens' nomina tions for councilmen in every ward that lias no choice between notoriously dis reputable or dishonest candidates with a party label. MH. POYNTBU was elected to Ihe state senate as an anti-monopolist and the indepondontsonalo elected him president pro loin. lie was elected on a pledge that bo would work for the passage of a law making it a penal olTonso for any public ofllciul to accept a free railroad pass. Instead of living up to the pledge Poyntor rode on passes anil charged mileage up to the state and oven asked the railroads to give him passus over lines east of the Missouri rivor. .Now Poy n ter wants to be elected to congress on Iho slronglX of his fidolily lo anil- monopoly principles. Comment is un necessary. _ True republicans of Council Bluffs an nounce for tomorrow the greatest rally of the campaign. Sonalor Allison and ether leaders will spoak.

Engineered and directed "by the most cotorlouR political hacKs nnd chrouio onieo- seekers , m most of the western stains , it continues to exist solely for the purpose of detaching enough republican votes to make democratic success possible , 'inoro is no more chance of getting anybody but Mr. Cleveland elected presldout if the election should ouco ire to the house than there is of electing Weaver by the popular vote of New York. Men who wont to help the demo cratic party had bettor do so openly and UKO men. answering for it to the world'nnd ttolr consciences. 3. The republican party is not dead nor dying , ns some fanatics imagine. Stronger than over at tbo cast , because of democratic fusion iu western states wltu men whoso ob jects the eastern democrats profess to detest ; stroncor than over in all manufacturing states because of the wonderful growth of manufactures slnco the now tariff was adopted ; stronger wherever patriotic feeling is found because of the splendid conduct of the administration in foreign affairs , its defense - fenso of American honor , its reciprocitv troalies , and its success In opening foreign mantels to American meat products , the grand old party is making such n llctit ttat its adversaries bogm to desrmir. This nt least recent events make certain , that the republican party cannot bo put on tlio shelf , but will live to triumph whenever the people comprehend that nothing else can save the country from free trade , wildcat money and the domination of a south made solid by fraud. 4. The so-called people's party was born of bad crops and ignorance. Many who road only ono bide catnn to believe that the repub lican parly had created all monopolies , plun dered and impoverished the pcoplo and re duced the land to starvation. Tbo crops of ISfll paid off mortcragos bv the thousand ana ovorv mnu emancipated from debt began to look facts in the face and saw what lien had been told him. Calamity wallers tiavo not boon gaining votes since the bad harvest of IbOO , and it is up hill work for thorn this year , with the evidences of unprecedented prosperity rolling in every day from official and other souices. It is a good tlmo for those who have been used by the democratic party ns Its tools to ask themselves seriously if they have not been so used long enough. To be cheated once is about enough tor most Americans. The practical , hard handed nnd hard headed mon of tlio west must speak for themselves and say whether they care to bo used as cats- paws in another election. s or MA' The serious features of the campaign have clven way to ceil iln victory for Ilarrlnon and Id-Id In 11 UK a merry aspect to thu columns of Inu New York Tilbtine.
