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.

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 :

Hot , to the gcnur.il rule thai the wcslor
cities are taking grout btiidos in mam

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.

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.

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.

Kcw I'uii : 'Ittbtinc ,
Such ropublicaiu as nro still criviiiK aid to
the democracy by supportlne fusion or poo-
pic's tickets at the west , are bound , ns honest
men , to look sijuuroly at certain facts which
recent oven Is make plain.
1. Southern democrats who pretended to
go into the jpooolo's party luivo generally
abanuoncu It. Throughout Iho cast nnd
south , democrats nro Btatlug , with tbo abso
lute certainty which comes only of power to
control elections by fraud , that ovorv south
ern state will vole for Air. Cleveland. They
mny possibly bo mistaken , but experience lu
Alabama and Georgia this year , and in Iho
southern states generally for lifteen years
past , indicates that , votes in thut section are
llltoly to DO counted before they are cost.
t ! . The people's party at the west is not , as
many hoped it would DO , a parly of the pco
plo. 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.
