IT HAS been discovered that all the

STATISTICAL TESTIMONY
The Miporliitunilont of lha bank do-
pnrtmont of Now York , who ! a demo
crat , a short time ago mvlo ratblto n
Btntnmentof the savings Kink deposits
n that state , which showed n not In *
ronso In IS'Jl of nearly Sll.UTO.OOlt. Ho
ias now completed another report show-
ng the Increase of dopuMU in the sea to
Milks nnd the greater amount of the ro-
ourco.s of these banks since the present
arid law wont Into effect.
The later statement is for the qunrtor
ontllng Soitoinbor ) U , 1S02 , and comparl-
on ia made with the report for thoquar-
or ending Soptenibor 27. 1890 , just bo-
ore the MoKlnloy act became a law.
JYom this It appears that there haiboon
an Increase in the deposits of the stuto
> anks of over $18.00J,000 , and an In-
roaso of resources exceeding S'J 1,000-
K)0. ) In view of the fact that four fifths
of the banking capital of the state
s invested in the nntlonal banks
nnd that most depositors use these
mnks , the showing of Increase
n the roJourcos anJ deposits of the statu
) ankis remarkable. Liter statistics
ogarding the savings binks are also
lichly interesting and instructive , it
) olng shown that in olghtcon months
inco the tarllT act wont , tnto operation ,
or from January 1 , 1891 to July 1 , 1892 ,
ho deposits in savingo banks increased
nearly $ ! ti,000,009 ( , the enormous aggre
gate at the latter date being , in lou'id
nimbors10111,000,000. . In the meantime
there was a largo investment in building
uid lo\n associations , dorlvod chlolly
rom the wages of labor.
No more conclusive evidence could bo
plvoti of the highly prosperous condi
tion of the working pooploof New York ,
and they are not inoro f.ivorod than
these of other st-itos. The rolatlvo in
crease of savings bink dopojits in Mus-
snchusolts has bdon as gro.it as in tlio
hnplru st'Vte , and doubtless the same is
true of i'ennsyiv.inla , Ohio , Illinois and
other states whuro ni'vnuf.icturing is
extensively carried on. Such a condi-
.ion of all'iiirs is indubltablo proof that
abor has been well employed and well
Mid during tlio p\ t two years , anil no
candid man will pretend that this lias
not boon in larpe measure duo to the
silmulaling effect upon industries of the
low tarilT l.vw. Under the opor.ition of
that law many now minuf ictui-ing os-
: ablUhments have boon started and
itlicra have boon enlarged , making a
lomami for labor and thyroby tending
to niaintiin wages.
In the distinctively agricultural states
ills nosiiblu that the condition of pros-
purity , as shown by the havings of the
[ > oople , nuy ba somewhat loss gratify-
,11"- , but it is a fact that hero in Ne
braska , for example , the deposits in all
classes of banks a-o very much larger
than they wore at a corresponding
period twojoars ago , and there is no
reason to doubt that the same is true of
Iowa nnd most of the other agricultural
states. That this condition generally
prevails is not lobe accounted for on tlio
scorn of extraordinary thrift umong the
people , or of the practice of unusual
economy. The workingmen of America
have , us a whole , undoubtedly lived as
well during the past two yo.irs as in any
previous period. It is duo to the gen
erally active employment of labor at re
munerative wairos. as shown by all
available statistics , and for this a largo
moiisuro of credit must go to the exist
ing tariff law.

It is an open question whether the
T.unmany ratification mooting in Now
York on Tuesday night was not really a
meeting designed primarily for the
glorillcation' Senator David B. IInl.
lie secured the honors , at all events ,
and il * . Cleveland only shone by re
flected light. Tlio meeting appears to
have been shrewdly planned to m-tko a
bensatiou by showing that Tammany
had only boon lying quiet in order to
nourish its strength for a burst of en
thusiasm for the democratic candidates
that should frighten all of the repub
licans out of the city. Tlio tiger was
lot loose In all his terrible ferocity , nnd
pandemonium was liberated at the same
timo.
timo.A
A great deal will bo made of this
meeting upon the protonbo that it shows
the democrats of Now York to bo har
monious and the Tammany men to bo
absolutely beside thcmbolvos with en
thusiasm for Grover Cleveland. Well ,
it was high time for something to bo
done. The Cleveland managers had
boon fairly humiliating themselves before
fore these foes of the inflated prophet
for several weeks in their efforts to
brinLT about some kind of a demonstra
tion that could bo passed olT for genuine
enthusiasm. Now that they have got
the demonsration ! they should not fail
to make it go as far as possible.
This Tnmmany ratification howl will
cost thocltix.onhot Now York something.
It could only have been procured by
purchase. Nothing could bo more certain
tain than that pledges have boon made
by tlio Cleveland men which will make
tlio power of ( ho tiger inoro secure in the
metropolis than it is now. Last year
the friends of good government in Now
York thought they hud so mo ro ison to
hope for escape from the grip of Tam
many , but the indications now are that
this powerful organitllon has taken ad
vantage of the alarm of the Cleveland
managers and soeurod concessions by
which it will bo still more /Irmly / In
trenched.
As to the offcot of this lu'inufauturoJ
unthubhibm upun the election , that te <
mains to bo soon. Noboiiy can tell
whether thu knillnjrof Cleveland will bo
abandoned or not.

ous false pretenses is in reality inspired

Henry Spriok la an upright man of

who lias made farming in Nebraska a

people in both houses of the loglelutura
and hu > j always cast his vote conscien

The attempt to bent Spriok by charg

only a trick. Henry Spriolc Is a torn-
porato man. Ills success in life Is
largely duo to his sobriety. But ho is
not a prohibitionist , and oven If ho was

Don M. Dickinson , chairman of the
democratic national campaign com
mittee , 1ms mndo an imporlnntdiscovory.
"Tho force bill issue , " ho says , "has
turned the tide in the south nnd is a
power in the northwest , where commer
cial interests quickly feel anything af
fecting the prosperity of the south. "
Few people wcro before aware that
the force bill Is really recognized as an
issue at all in the northwest. What
ever may bo eald about It by campaign
ers who rcceivo their ammunition from
the democratic national committee , it
hr.s no inoro Interest as n subject of
discussion among thu people than an
abandoned bird's nest. And itis by no
moans true that commercial interests
in tlio northwest are in any manner de
pendent upon the kind of southern pros
perity that would bo promoted by
absolute demniT ith % supremacy in that
section. Tlio Interests of the northwest
nro less closely intorwovnn with these
of the Fouth thin the interests of tlio
east , and tlio two sections have no com-
11011 purpose that could bo subserved by
iho permanent formication of old fash
ioned botirbonism in the states which
lire now making so much noise about
'nngro domination. "
Tlio force bill is not nn issue ; there is
no force bill now and it does not appear
that there is likely to bo one. But so
long as democratic intolerance exists in
the soutli it will bo resented , and politi
cal turmoil will continue. The force
bill agitation in Iho bouthorn slates has
no bettor purpo-jo than to intensify old
prejudices and keep the south solidly
democratic. What possible interest
can the northwest have in that ? The
logic of Mr. Dickinson's argument is
that the northwest has a commercial
interest in the successor the light which
the south is waging against "negro
domination'1 because the triumph of
democratic intolerance would maku the
south prosperous. History proves that
prosperity cannot bo promoted by the
absolute and intolerant ascendancy of
such elements as compose the southern
democracy , and it needs no argument to
show that contrary conditions have pro
duced [ Treat prosperity in the west and
northwest. Whv , then , should this part
of the country wish to encourage the
south in the furious assertion of its pur
pose to continue the practice of a policy
that has brought nothing but evil in the
past ?
It iho northwest were supremely
selfish and wholly wedded to sectional
interests it might wish to see all of the
robt of the country in Iho position which
the solid fcoutli occupies , for it is plain
that the southern loss of immigration
and enterprise has brought gain to this
portion of tlio United Stitc-3. But that
is not the altitude for a loyal people
who are intnrcstoJ in tlio common pros
perity of the country.

Trustworthy information from every
slate in which the populist party has
been regarded as a formidable factor in
the political situation shows that it is
rapidly on the wane. Such is the report
from Idaho and Colorado and from
the two Dakotas , in all of which states
former republicans who identified them
selves with the now political movement
nro returning to the old party. A des
perate ofTort is boing1 mndo by the pop
ulist leaders in those stales , aided by
the democrats , to check this disintegra
tion , but it goes on , and these best in
formed ro/raiding / the situation believe
that the success of the republicans in
these states is asvjrod. In Kansas tlio
republican outlook is improving daily ,
and no candid man familiar with the
situation in Nebraska will question that
the now party Is weaker by thousands
of votes llmo it was two months ago.
The ponulibt campaign , begun BO ag
gressively immediately uftor the Omaha
convention , is drawing to a close with
steadily diminishing interest. The
principles of tlio now party , having
boon Butmiitlcd to the calm judgment of
the people and intelligently discussed ,
have failed to commend thomsnlvos 13
thousands of thoughtful men who impul
sively allied themselves with this move
ment from a sincere fooling that homo
political dopartu-o was necessary in
order to reform certain admitted evils.
Confronted by indisputablefnoU demon
strating the prosperity of the country ,
the cal unity cry has ceased to have in-
lluonce witli men who are willing to bo
convinced by facts. Subtroasury and
Hat money bohomos elnnot thrive under
the light of rational inquiry and discus
sion , and the oxpjsuro of the imprac
ticability and folly nf such expedients
has induced thousands of men to ab in-
dim the party of which they are the
cirdinal principles.
Thus the pretentious und demands o
the populists , having boon shown in the
one c iso to bo without foundation and
in tlio other foollbh and dangerous , the
now party has been steadily losing
ground , and but for the anomalous
fusion with the democracy it would
nowhere bo a formldnblo factor in the
political situation , Tlio drift away
from it is still going on , nnd there i
every reason to bollovo that IV will bo
accelerated us the day of election draws
nearer. H iving fulled thus far to prove
its claims or to justify Us principles in
a word , having given no valid reason
for Its existence , it will not bo more suc
cessful in the brief time that remains of
the campaign in convincing the honest
and patriotic farmers and worklngmen
of the west that they can bo benefited
by ovHfturning existing fiscal and finan
cial policies and substituting for them
ho reckless nnd ImfJrncllcnble gohomos
vhlch the populists p roposo.
Till ! Salt Lake ' /Wfwiir suggests Hint
'the ghost rtntico In'tho ' west ought to
bo given up , " nud remarks that every
irofcsslon of strength which General
Weaver mndo whon,1io started out on
lia campaign has turned to ashes , ex
cept , possibly , in 16" or throe mining
tales. As to WoaVdr's position regard-
ng silver , the 'JWmnc expresses the
opinion that ho is { Wtj a friend of that
nolnl , and that having boon nn original
treonbackor ho would do away with
> oth gold and Mlvor ns money nnd sub
stitute for them nn irredeemable paper
uirroncy. "How the solid hnnt money
non of western slates can sloop down
and worship with such a man and such
a creed , " rainnrks that paper , "is one of
these things that would bo Inexplicable ,
except that wo know that this year the
iholcra has been raging , storms have
) eon roaring on land and sea , the earth
quake has boon upon the march , vol
canoes that have been a long time ex
tinct have begun to smoke , and the
loarls of mon nro perturbed in the
Biuno ratio. " Undoubtedly General
Weaver , wore ho in a position to do so ,
would not hesitate to opprovo legisla
tion to destroy both the money metals
uid give the country nothing but a
sapor currency , as Jerry Simpson and
other populist loaders propose shall bo
done. The financial sohomo of the now
party , however , would inevitably lead
Lo this result , and it is astonishing that
the people of the silver states who nro
supporting it do not sco this. It is no
lobs surprising that they do not see that
in supnorting Weaver they are helping
to the success of Cleveland , who is an
uncompromising enemy of silver. The
blindness and folly of the silver slates
people in this matter is ono of the
stranpo and pu//.ling features of the
campaign.
ACCOIIDINO to the report from Omaha
published by the American Hanker in
its last week's report from Omaha
"collections in tlio interior of Ne
braska continue good , and it hns been
a long lime since any complaints have
been heard regarding this subject. "
The financial reputation of Nebraska
ai.d the whole of the largo territory in
which our jobbers and bankers do busi
ness is of the very highest character.
Reports similar to this have boon heard
bore for many months past. The farmer
is paying for what ho buys of the coun
try merchant , the latter is remitting
promptly to the jobber and bank obliga
tions are mot in a trimmer that refutes
the charge that the people are suffering
from hard times. The political force of
these facts , in view of tlio questions now
demanding the verdict of the people , is
simply overwhelming. All arguments
designed to prove tli t the country is not
prosperous are worsoj , than futile. The
uniform report of Verood collections"
presents the truth in the simplest and
most convincing wnv.
THE mechanic and artisan labor to
produce many articles that the farmer
must buy. ' 'it ' is to their intorosflo'got
tlio highest , possible price for whatever
they produce. The farmoron , the other
handproduces foodstuffs that the laborer
nuibt buy and it is to tlio interest of the
armor to got the highest possible price
for Ills products. The business interests
of the two classes arc by no moans iden
tical. This fact was conclusively shown
when the Knights of I/ibot * aupnarod
before the last state legislature and de
manded an eight-hour law. The farmer-
lawmnkois gave them what they wanted
but exempted farm hands from the pro
visions of the law , which has since boon
adjudged unconstitutional because it
sought to accord to ono class of people
a benefit denied to another class.
ONI : of the best signs of the times in
Omaha is the fact that there are very
few men out of employment practically
none at all who are capable and willing.
It IB stated by a gentleman connected
with one of the South Omaha packing
concerns that his firm finds it dillicult
to secure suflloient help in some depart
ments , and lie attributes this to the fact
that there is a general demand for labor
and very few men out , of employment.
The enlargement of the business of the
packing houses and s'.ook yards hns
within the past few months given om
ploymcnt to a largo number of mon in
addition to tlie former force , and in
creased activity in the building trades
in this city lias caused an increased do
maud fur both skilled und unskillui
Inbor.
Tun citizens of Omaha and Douglas
county must not forgot that Tom Ttittlo
wants to bo county commissioner. Tut-
tie was elected two years ago to tlio
council because the republicans of tlio
Fourth ward were not satisfied with
Wheeler , who had mndo himself
notorious us a moinbor of the old com
bine. Instead of carrying out his
pledges Tuttle has boon ono of the
worst mon that has held a seat down in
the council during. JLJio past two years.
To elect him now to the position of
county commiflslone j'ould bo putting a
faithlo'wposs and jobbery.
Three dishonest corniniBsionors can do

Johnson , who packed the primaries and

Johnson's activity ln politics has been
for revenue only , ffiUl property owners

The first two Ouys of registration in Now

tbn corresponding days ot IbbS , thu totnl
number being "U'JOU. ' ) A pionortlotiuto in
crease was recorded in tJrooUlyn. The re
sult was uoraldcd throughout the country
ns ovlUonco ol uncommon democratic nativ
ity , nnd the precursor of victory. The doiu-
ocratio national commltleo rejoiced ex
ceedingly , and the republican muimgors
\\ero col responding dcpiosscd. The gicnt
strength ol tnu democracy lies in Now Yoik
mul Urooklyn. The registration occuriug
earlier in the cities than in tbo eouiiti-\ ,
where republican majorities are Invariably
rolled up , gave the domocrac ) cause for
momentary pleo. Now republicans rejoice
and democracy is glum. Keturns from reg
istration in the country districts last Satur
day show an iucicnso proportionately as
giealus thut of the big cities. Some dis
tricts have registered inoro names than tbeio
weio votei cast in IbSS , and , with few ex

The arrest of canga of democratic repent-
oi-i in Albany , Troy nnd Uticn In signilluant.
It ahoiTs thu desperation ot tboClovotanditos
and the vigilance- the republicans. Ono
or iho culprits had rogisloied Ht tyvelva
different pluces , and the others at two or
more. Tnoy were arraigned before fedoml
coininlssiouors and hold for trial. Twenty-
two additional warrants have been issued.
The decision of the courtfof appeals to the
effect that judgoaot tbe statocouits tmvo no
legal right to sit on election day opd issue
mandamuses against inspectors hns created
no cud of gossip , and is variously commented
upon by democratic nnd republican lawyers
und politicians , Tno Herald says the decis
ion U unfortunate. ' Hitherto when the elec
tion olllctirs hnvo icfusod to receive the Imllot
or any person olloritig lo vote an uppoal lay
lo tbo court , which would order the ballot to
bo teccivod 11 it appeared that tbo applicant
was entitled to voto. Now , with thu state-
courts closed on election day , the voter do-
nlod at the polls muat lese his vote unless ho
cnu succoosiiilly applv to the fed oral court. "
In view of the power thus placail ou partisan
Inspectors , it is prooablo the United Stales
court will sit on clootlon day and give citi-
i"iis effective assistance in exorcising their
lit'hU.

Iho election were to lj held tomorrow there
would bo no lack of iunda if only tint amount
now to tno ciecllt or tbo treasurer of tno
democratic state commiltoo in various banks
in this cuy wuro to bo used , Tbo appeals
tbnt have gone out recently were only for
tlio purpose of gelling soiuo of the rich
Clove land democrats , who did a largo amount
or talking bufoio Mr. Cleveland wus nomi

the congressional nomlneo In tbo Fifth dis

Andrews had Di-en a big surprise lo his

experience in political campaigning , but was
showing himself to bo a great general nnd
was Invading MclCclghan's strongholds in a

chore expresses himself as thinking that it is
doubtful whether many Uuroneans will visit

says : "It is certain , however , that the
United Slates nt tbo present moment , Is tbo

Alcblson Olobo : Mrs. Benjamin Harrison ,
who died Tuesdav , was what all women
should bo ; a thoroughly domestic woman
who loved her husband nnd children bettor
than n show or display before the world.
Kansas City Star : Mrs. Harrison was
worthy of her predecessors ; n beautiful L-X-
umplo to these who may succeed her. She
lived her life end mot its ovorv call with the
two qualities which make life nil il mav bo ,
love : md courage , and these to life's end.
Chicago .Mail : Woids faintly portray the
virtues of so noble and ttuo a xvauiau , who
amid every exacting scene of lifo was au ex-
umplo for all good uivea and mothers ono
whom llattery could not reach and ono whom
tbo honors of earth could not loucb with
van it v.
Minneapolis Tribune : As n homo there is
llttlo doubt that bo Harrison hoiro wa
worthy to stand ns a typical American home ,
Btid in thoio domestic qualities which give
borne its power and place in American lifo ,
Mrs. Harrison was worthy of bar place as
tUo first lady in tbe loud.
Minneapolis Times ; Thorn will bo many
eulogies pronounced on tbo character of the
true woman who bai gene , and they will all
bo deserved , but they u 111 but focblvnssunga
bis erief. The imtion looks on in profound
sympathy , but it can do litllo olso. I'resi-
dcnl Harmon Is alone with nis dead ,
Chlcnco I'osl : Death hns once more in
vaded the white house to take nvvny Its mii-
Iross , bul for President Harrison was re
served the unique grief of encountering u
great loss nt a time when bis mind was
racked and his nervous enorgics engrossed
by the strain of n presidential struggle.

Tlmt the winter of ' 59 was full of blixzirds aivl so
much snow fell that all the

them as well as tailors do and in most cases they fit bet
