A VOTI : for Grounso is u vote for con- Borvativo , business HUe admlniatration of the affairs ot state. Tun question is , will Governor Boyd's "personal and confidential" letter land him in the noxtctibinot. THI5 fivo-dollar hog Is n , itid object for the contemplation of the populist ghost dancer , for It means loss of votes. VOTKKS who have not registered ehould hoar In mind the fact that they have but two more chances , Friday and Saturday. IT MIOIIT ho a pretty good idea to have a. solid republican north , not tie's- ossary for victory but only as an cvl- tlonco of loyalty and common sense. GOVKUNOU BOYD ns a letter writer cannot bo said to ho n. total failure. Unlike Cleveland , however , ho says just what he mo ins und moans what ho says. TUB favorite itloa of most of the popu list loaders of this state is to pay their riobts with wildcat money or free silver nnd receive for their produce gold only. WK IIAVI : a now weather prophet in this city , Mr. Bassior having returned lo Cincinnati. Thus far , however , wo can see no improvement in this beastly weather. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ , T. STKKUNO MOIJTON is to ho in town this week. All good democrats should Attend his meetings and hear him "do up" Bryan. It is said to ho worth the an tire price of admission. GOVKHNOK MCKINLUV is making the greatest campaign of any speaker in the country nnd is attracting the largest audiences. The governor ia somewhat interested in this election , himself 1890. OYSTKHS are now soiling ut 0 cents ] ior can in Omaha , which is not caused hv the McICInloy law. If , however , they had advanced to 75 cents per can , ot course it would bo caused by the MoKinloy law. DON'T fall to vote for the iimondmonts to the constitution. Nebraska should have an olcctivo railroad commission nnd the bciiool fund of thu state should ho loaned out to the school districts with which to build school houses. EUCLID MAUTJN is about the most transparent campaign mumigor in ex istence , ns Is proven by his attempting to call the ghost of the prohibition question up from the grave. And Euclid doesn't ' look like a ghoul-makor. To JIB sure , there ia sotno evidence in NobrnsUu politics that the independents uro slightly inclined to permit thoiu- Bolvoj to ho used by the democrats , hut It Is not eo sure that they love Governor JJoyd enough to vote him a cabinet , po sition. TUB sickly attempts by certain demo crats hereabouts to revive the prohibi tion issue as an element In this cam paign depress the ordinary mind pretty much as decs the humorous Hashes of our uncstucmud contemporary down tlio Btroot SOUTH OMAHA'S October record of stockyards receipts was the best iaonth' allowing yet made by those ynrt'a The receipts for October of lubtyour , which had been the groitest , wore 78,000 hnad of cattle , while October of this year shows OO.uOO head , a gain of 152,000. This beats the record for inurouso of tiny r other stock yards in the country , CIIAIHMA MAHTIN'H clarion note of i warning that u. republican legislature moans prohibition in Nebraska , stampr. . that sagacious gentleman us u born po litical loader.

Would thiu there were nioro brainy loaders like Mr. Murtla. novunxon novrsa It has boon known for toino time th it Governor Boyd f.ivorod ( jiving Iho democratic vote of Nobram | to the Weaver electors. Weeks ago ho ox- prc cd himself to thin olTcclln an inter view , nna It Is understood that ho ha ? at every opportunity urged the expedi ency of such action on the part , of demo crats If there has boon any doubt as to the position of Governor Ujyrt on this matter - tor U will ho removed by the publica of the circular letter , printed elsewhere - whore in Tin : BII : : , In which ho coun sels democrats to. support the Weaver electors In o.-tlor "lo take Nebraska out of her accustomed place ia the republi can column. " lie urges that to do this will not ho an abandonment ot principle , hut , on the contrary , "a definite stop toward victory nnd the ullimato triumph ol Cleveland and Stevenson and the principles they represent1' Governor Boyd also ndvispt democrats to ho loyal to the candidate * of tholr party for the legislature , "particularly so whcro there is a possibility of olcc lion , " but ho says nothing about loyalty to Morton , Bryan , Do ino un.l oilier c.in- d'dntes ' for stale ofllco or the national legislature. The solicitude of the governor ornor regarding the legislature , which will elect u United States senator , Is too broadly suggestive to escape attention. There aio democrats in Neb-ask i who agree with Governor Boyd In rog.ird to supporting the Weaver electors , but there is a very considerable number who believe too strongly In democratic prin ciples to stultify themselves by voting for the presidential candidate of a party whose doctrines they are uncompromis ingly opposed to. There are democrat * In Nebraska who will not bollovo with Governor Boyd that the principles of the deniour.icy c.in bo couso'-ved and promoted bv voting for other than the roprcMjtitillvosofituuli principles Those sincere and conscientious democrats will not bo inllucncoJ by the ivppjul of Gov ernor Boyd , while as to those who are in agreement with the governor they did not need his counsel to induoo them to compromise their principles and stultify their conscience' . Governor Boyd has shown his hand , and it disclose ? the f xct tint tlio United Slates senate or a place in the cabinet ib the stake he is playing for. iin ; M.iAur.u'TUui In the list of American cities Omaha stnndx tenth in Ilio number of luindh employed in manufacturing en terprises Among twenty-four cities engaged in manufacturing there were 1-111,12:2 ! ) persons employed in 1803 ns a < rainst H3-jlo7 in 1880. This shows an increase greatly in excess of the in crease in population , whether the in crease in population be confined to the cities or distributed throughout the country. 1'osslbly the increase in the number of manufacturing employes has not boon HO great in Ilio umall towns and rural districts as in the cities , but the increase in the cities alone has boon ( ! 0. < ,0)0 ( ) , which is nearly n quarter of the whole iiiimlw employed ton yoar.s ago. Tlio aggregate product for the twenty- four cities named in this ropo"t was $ ; ! 2,0-)0,000 against $1,778,000 in 1S89 , an increase of nearly SI ! per cent. As tlio increase in the number of hands was about 75 per cent there is an increase in the value of products per hand in bpilo of the fall in prices of all commodities since 18SO. Thohu figures glvo seine idea of the wonderful growth of the industrial enterprises of this country during the past ton years. Tlio increase in indus trial products is greater in the cities than in the country , but it is evident I that the gain during the past ton years has boon large. In n comparatively few cities the train is reported at $1,1712,000 in value , not considering differences in prices , and thi.s IB about one-third of the entire product of ton years ago. Tno aggregate increase will probably bo about 50 per cent , leaving out the dlffot- oncch in prices. It needs no argument In addition to plain statements of facts to show that the industrial enterprises of this coun try are prospering wonderfully. ' Such growth ns is shown by undeniable sta tistics must bo taken as conclusive proof t that the industries of the United Stains are malcing great progress. It is Im possible to predict what tholr future will he , hut It cannot fail to bo prosper ous if the growth of the past ton years is continued. It is gratifying to note that Omaha Is ranked as tenth among the munufncltir- ing cities * , according to the number of hands employed. Considering that this city is still very young the position which It occupies in this respect Is not ono to bo ashamed of. Its standing will bo groatlv improved during the next , ton years und the census of 1000 will plnco Oin.iha very high in tlio list of manufacturing cities. A 01/K.sr/oA / * vun I'ui' At the beginnligof the campaign the populist loaders profossoa to bollovo that they would got some electoral votes in the south. It U now ub o * lutoly certain that they will not do so. General Weaver nays they would carry two or thrco states there if they could ' gotn fair count , hut that is just what they cannot got. The domocr.illo managers - agors In the south intend to glvo the electoral vote of that section solidly for Cleveland , nud undoubtedly they will accomplish it. The j opulists are now hoping to carry bovoral western status , with the aid of democratic votes. Sup * pose they do tills , what good will the party get out of ItV This is a question which every Intelligent member of the people's parly should ask himself. General Weaver cannot ho elected , No matter how many western states ho should carry ho cou'd not bo chosen president this year , Tlio success of Weaver electors in a number of western states might throw the election of presi dent into the house of representatives , where Weaver would have but two votou and Cleveland would bu chosen. The democrats in abandoning tholr electoral tickets to support the populist electors ' understand this , and therefore they urge that u vote for Weaver In tlio states whore the democrats uro largely In the minority is u vote for Cleveland. What possible advantage can the now party tyu derive from helping elect the deuu- cr.allc candidate ? Ilow wohld the popu list fnrmora bo moro benefited by having Mr , Cleveland president than by having Mr. HtirrisonV It might bo personally gratifying to the cuidldntos oftlio now party to got the electoral vote of sev eral slate ? , hut there would bo no ad vantage in this , for having received democratic aid it could not bo claimed as a populist victory , The fact is thiit there Is nothing what ever in thin conloJt for the poonle's party , so far as the national ticket Is concerned , and It Is simply being played as n dupe by the democrats In tlio west , whllo Iho southern wing of the democ racy lias practically kicked It out of the political arena , it must be that thcro are men In lliu third p.irty who will not allow theinsolve3 to bo used as demo cratic catspaws rin ; STAKH or run r.ntMKit. NJ class of the ucoplo luivo really inoi-o al. stake in Iho pending political con test than tlio farmer * of the country. If the do mo mill i' policy regarding the larlir.should prevail its Incvltalilo ofToel In | crippling the industries of the coun try woutll ho to turn an army of tnon employed in those industries into ngrl- cultural producer5. . With the opening of the American market to the nearly unrestricted competition of Kuropoau manufacturers , which the democratic policy contemplate : ? , there would neco/ > - stinly follow a docadotico of our manu facturing IndtHtrips. The vast munlm- of moil which this state of things would throw out of employment , having no- who.ro else to go , would to a very largo extent seek In hocotuo agricultural pro ducers. What was Bald hy Horace Greeley nearly fifty years ago , when the democratic party was endeavoring lo de stroy the system of protection , is equally applicable to the .situation now , with the added foroo derived from the enormous increase In our manufacturingIndus - 1-106. Said Greoloy in ISM : "One hundred thousand artisans and la borers [ The number would now ho many limes greater ] discharged from our ruined faclorios , after balng some time out of employ moat , at a wasteof millions of iho national wealth , uro : il last driven by famine to engage in other avocations of course , with inferior skill and at an inferior price. The farmer , gardener , grocer , lese them as cus tomers to moot thotn as rivals. They crowd the labor markets of those branches of industry which wo are still permitted to pursue , just at the time when the demand for tlunr products has fallen olt and the price is rapidly de clining. " liven with a steadily growing homo market , under the policy of protection , a great many fanners complain that the reward of their industry is not satisfac tory. What would it bo if several hun dred thousand moro porsor.s , now en gaged in other Industries , were to take up farming ? It ought to bo perfectly obvious to oyory intelligent farmer that if the protootivo policy were abandoned and our industries crippled , as they cer tainly would bo , the effects could not b otherwise than disastrous to his inter ests. Ho does not want an extension of agricultural production but an enlarging homo market for his products , and in order to secure this ii is necessary to foster manufacturing industries. This brings tlio producer and the consumer together , to the advantage of both , and It secures the development of all the re sources of the country. No cxton dod argument , can bo needed lo fehow the farmer of ordinary intelli gence that a disproportionate develop ment of agricultural production would bo injurious to his interests. In lowering ing- the price of his products it would reduce - duce the value of his lands , and such a process would bring ruin to thousands. Nobody who has any knowledge of the subject will question that the farmer's best market is the homo market. Ninoty-fivo per cent of the products of f the farms of the United States is con sumed in this country. The time is not remote , if wo continue to develop our manufacturing industries , when our own people will consume all that our farms produce , and neither tlio price of our wheat or of any other product will bo s determined by a foreign market. Then i the farmers of America , who are now as a clnsi the most prosperous in the wor'.d , will have no concern about the condition of Kuropoan crops , and no solicitude as to any thing except that the seasons shall bo so propitious as to enable them to meet an assured demand. The stake of the American farmer in the pending contest is not less im portant than that of any other class ol the people , and his interests and wel- faro clearly demand that the American system of protection shall bo preserved. IT SIMWIS rather odd that the railroad ollicials should welcome the present geneT oral rain because it will make the coun try roads muddy and prevent the farm em from hauling their grain to market. The railroads tire all blockaded on c' count of the extraordinary movcmon it itn oT grain and the cur famine is the mos borloiid over known. Nobody seems able to explain why the farmers uro rushing their wheat lo market at such a rate when prices are so low , but iho wheal continues to como and the elevators a it all prominent mnrkot points are full t to overflowing , whllo millions of bushel Is are on the railroad tracks awaiting movement , AUGUSTUS LOOKNIHI Is OI10 of the best men nominated on the republican legislative ticket. Ills army record of thrco years' honorable eervlco under Sheridan and the position ho occupies as senior vice commander of the Grand Army of the Republic Cuslor post af ford ample proof that ho is respected und esteemed among his old comrades of the war. Mr. Loul < nor has , however , other things tocommend him besides his war record. Ho is a man who has inude what ho bus by hard work and honest dealing , lie cannot bo tampered with and will if elected faithfully serve the toilers and taxpayers. Till : moro candid democrnU admit that thu country is prosperous , hut deny that ro publican policy has anything to do with producing the prosperity. They insist that tlio country Is prosperous in spite of the tariff. This is simply ub- aurd , as nnyho'dy may learn for himself by Investigating the facts during the * lust fifty years of the country's history. Before the warSujplor the domocr.Ulo tariff loglslatto | rt that porloj , the financial nnd Industrial condition of the country was dorl&tfbxl by President Bu chanan to bo doplotxtblo. The national treasury became bankrupt , business was prostrated , Jcommnrco was stagnant , labor was unemployed , all enterprise was at n standstill } and when the gov ernment was 'it Itist. compelled lo bor row money , for thb revenues were not sulllclcnt to moot thoioxpondlturoo , It was forced to pay as Ulgh ; as li ! per cant per annum. That was the time and such were the results of a tariff for revenue only , and the detnocr.itio pxrty now de mands that the country shall go back to that policy. M \.iou PAUDOOK entered upon his .luties an county commissioner on No- vcn.ber 1-1 , but ho drew pay for the whole month of Novombor. Ho has been absent from more lmn one-third of the commissioners' mootlngs but has always drawn pay for full time. With ' such a record the taxpayers of Douglas county will scarcely want him to servo another term. Wo want men In o/lloo / who have but ono master to servo and will devote their whole time to the duties of tholr olllco. IT IS gross carelessness for parents to allow their children to ntloim the funeral of a child who had died of diph therin , and the action of the principal of the Webster street school In sending homo those children deserves applause for ils promptness add caution. Dlph- that la is too dreadful to bo trilled with in any way. ' IT'S A game of grab aH around for the Kerns and the McKoighans In Ibis slate. 13ryan goes inlo Mclvoighan's district and swcarn that the latter is a democrat , Then in gratiludo McKoighati advises populists to vote for Hryan instead of for their party nominee.
