There Is a prospect of a deadlock be

If the president tries to take care of all
the democratic congressmen who fall to got

The employes In the street commissioner's

Strange , Is It not , how closely President
Cleveland's statement of his position on the
tariff question coincides with the well known
attitude of Sen itor Hill. If Senator Hill Is
no longer a democrat , what Is President
Cleveland ?
Omaha has a now corporation , organized

That white- handkerchief wrapped about
Chairman Wilson's head when ho made the
report of the confoienco committee to the
liouso was owing to neuralgia and not to
that tired feeling. This explanation Is due to
Mr. Wilson and his admirers.
Wo always admire enterprise , but when the
Omaha fake mill tries to create a sensation
by the pretended dlsco\ery of a Kansas
Bender murder den on the Dodge street
school slto , just because n few Indian skele
tons have been dug up In tlmt primitive
burial ground , enterprise goes altogether too
far.
Senator Allen In his supplementary report
on the sugar scandal deals some of his spec
ulating assoclatct some rather sharp blows.
Ilul ho still expresses a wonderful confi
dence In the Integrity of the great majority
of senators. It must take a great deal to
shake Senator Allen's confidence In his fel
low man.
Characterizing the president's letter to
Chairman Wilson as "very extraordinary" Is
putting It rather mild. If the president
wants to communicate with congress , the
constitution pro\ldes for transmitting his
recommendations direct to that body. In no
place , however , does It innko the chairman
of the committee on wajs and means Uio
representative of the house for this pur
pose or the official messenger of the pres
ident. A message to congress would have
had the same effect and have been moro In
consonance vlth the general usage.
The handsome little souvenir of the recent
trip through Nebraska towns gotten out by
the Commercial club ought to bo one of the
most effective features of these business ex
cursions , designed as they are to promote
more cordial lelatlons between Omaha whole
salers and their customers. The Illustrated
story of the Journey Is a permanent re-
mlndor of the occasion , and serves to keep
the Omaha market constantly before the
eyes of bu > er In the tributary territory.
It should be made a regular adjunct to fu
ture excursions undertaken by the Commer
cial club for similar purposes.
It wilt certainly do no harm to discuss
annexation at this time. Omuhu and South
Omaha are bound to consolidate their city
governments sooner or later. Had South
Omaha consented to the proposal when It
was submitted to Its voters , both cities
would liavs reaped material binefUs from
the arrangement. The advantage to Omaha ,
now that the finances of South Omaha Imvo
reached a deplorable stage , would not bo no
marked at present , but they won'd neverthe
less bo substantial , A canvass of the annexa
tion sentiment will Inform us how the people
of the two cities stand ou this question
today.
ttKsroxmnir.tTr KOH
The whole nltn of the president' * letter
endorsingtlip Wilson bill ns passed by the
house and ttm whole burden of Chairman
Wllson'n speech explaining the failure of the
conference committee to unite upon a tariff
measure was npptrontly Intended to throw
the blame for dls.igreemcnt upon the demo
cratic numbers of the senate and to shield
the democratic members of the house from
any Imprecations that might be directed
against them. The president and the demo
crats of tin ? house are unquestionably con
vinced In their own minds that they alone
are In the right In this matter and that they
have the unquallllcd support of the demo
cratic rnnk nnd file. The bill of necessity
had to originate In the lower branch of con-
grcua and It Is therefore more natural to
look ankatice nt any amendments mailo by
the semtc , whoso authority over revenue
measure.In ! generally regarded as subordi
nate to that of the house.
The SL-natc will , of course , Indignantly re
sent the Implied censure with which It Is
thus attempted to brand It anil In self-de
fense will neek to throw the responsibility
upon cither the piosldent or the house. So
far as the claim of superior powers over
rovonu" legistttlon on the pirt of the house
Is concerned , the precedents are practically
all against such a contention. The only
advantage given the house over the senate
by the con tltntlou Is the privilege of origi
nating all bills for raising revenue , but the
very same eluuse adds that the senate may
propose or roncur with amendments as on
other bills. Notwithstanding objectlonh
urged from time to time , the .senate has
ah\as freelj proposed amendments to such
blllH. often transforming the entire character
of the measure , and the house has accepted
or rejected the amendments lust as It would
did the > deal with any ordlnaty subject of
Icglslitlon Because the provisions of the
Wilson bill happened to have priority over
those of the senate bill In point of time gives
them no precedence for recognition by the
conference committee. When the conference
stage of legiblatlon Is reached the origin of
the particular matter In dlsputo cuts no
figure whatever. ' Under the law the senile
has the same legal right to insist upon Its
amendments as the house has to Insist that
the senate disagree.
Were tliu two committees left to them
selves to work out a tariff bill acceptable
to the democrats In both houses of con
gress It Is altogether possible and quite probable -
able tiiat they would have been able to &trlke
an agreement. The Intrusion of the president
Into the councils of the confeiymcc commit
tee , however , gave the representatives of the
house , i sciibe of added Importance and un
doubtedly made the rcpicscntatlves of both
houses all the more determined to uphold the
bill as agreed to by their house Yv'lth the
president on their Hide the house conferec.s
must have felt that the responsibility had
been taken from their shouhUn > nnd as
sumed by the chief executive. The senate
conferees must likewise have acted ab If the
responsibility for disagreement no longer
rested upon them. In presuming to endorse
the Wilron bill and to condemn the senate
amendments President Cleveland has volun
teered to bear the responsibility for dis
agreement and for the failure to enact u new
tariff law which Is likely to result. In this
ho has Elmpllflcd the situation for both the
senate and the house.
SUM , IIAIll'lAU O * 7HTN.
Mr. Cleveland never lets go by an oppor
tunity to tell the public that ho Is un
friendly to trusts nnd combinations. In his
latest dellvciancc he takes occasion , while
endorsing a policy regarding sugar which
Is known to bo perfectly satisfactory to
the rollnliiB monopoly , to remark that no
tenderness should bo entertained for trusts
and that he Is decidedly opposed to grant
ing them any opportunity to further their
peculiar methods. In his inaugural ad
dress ho used very plain and vigorous lan
guage In denouncing what he described as
Aggregations of capital and kindred busi
ness Interests , declaring that they are for
the most part consphacles against the pub
lic welfare , that they are hostile to the
American sense of fairness , and that It is
the duty of the government to protect the
people from the oppression and exactions
of these combinations.
In these utterances Mr. Cleveland knows
that ho Is playing upon a popular chord.
Ho Is In harmony with an almost universal
sentiment. Hut the question Is pertinent
whether ho is sincere , and It Is simply fair
to .seek an answer In the course of his ad
ministration In regard to the trusts. What
has been done by way of attesting the pro
fessed desire of the president to relieve the
people from the exactions of monopoly and
from Its Interference with free competition
In trade ? The last republican congress en
acted an anti-trust law which la still on
the statute book. It was adopted after care
ful deliberation and thorough discussion.
Has the present administration made any
adequate effort to enforce this law ? So
far as the public Is aw are the only cuso
brought under It was against the Sugar trust
In connection with Its absolution of the
rellncrles in Philadelphia. This cuso was
decided adversely to the government In
the lower court and an appeal taken. It
Is possible that something further will bo
done with It during the term of this ad
ministration , but by no means certain , for
the Sugar trust Is an Inlluence at tVash-
Ington. But why halt at this ono case ?
There are other combinations within the
purview of this law ami some of them
might be found less vulnerable than the
sugar monopoly. Why not Institute pro
ceedings against some of the lesser trusts
and give the law a broader t6st than it
has jet received ? The reason for not doing
so Is doubtless to be found In the fact that
the astute corporation lawer whom Mr.
Cleveland made attorney general does not
look with favor upon the anti-trust law.
He has pronounced It defective and In-
adeqaute , and very UUely he has convinced
the president that It Is so , and therefore
It would bo a waste of time and money to
proceed under It against the tuists.
Thcro U a way , however , in which Mr.
Cleveland can uhovv the sincerity of his
professed hostility to the trusts , and that
U by recommending to congress such legis
lation as he may deem adequate for their
suppression. Tills would bo In the line
of his constitutional duty , and ho can do
It at any time. It Is not necessary for
htm to withhold such recommendation for
his annual message , U would bo as much
In order now as In December. Let Attor
ney General Olney frame a bill that will
correct the defects which ho claims are
In the cxIsUni ; law and the president trans
mit It to congress with a recommendation
for Its early passage , and undoubtedly con
gress would promptly respond , because men
of all parties are In favor of such legislation.
Moreover , It would bo a creditable thing
to the administration , which thus far has
extremely llttlu that It can claim credit
for , and also a uood service to the party ,
which Is sorely In need of anything that
can commend It to popular regard. Hut
nothing of this sort Is to bo expected cf
Mr. Cleveland. He may really feel that the
trusts ore bad for the people and ought
to be suppressed , but ho Is not troubling
himself about them. The people have
learned to regard his repeated denunciation
of trusts and combinations as one of his
numerous platitudes.

The terms In which Mr. Cleveland and
Mr. Wilson have arraigned the democratic
senators bcforo the country , In effect charg
ing them with dishonesty and duplicity , It
would room must bo regarded by those sena
tors an so offensive and under the circum
stances so unnecessary that they cannot ,
with a due regard for their self-respect , fall
to resent the Imputations. lit his reference
to the sugar schedule the president speaks
of Incidents In connection with this feature
of the tariff bill that have aroused "a
dnrocratlc animosity to the manners and
minlpulatlons of trusts nnd combinations"
and BIOS ho shares In this feeling. The
president could hardly have stated moro
plainly his conviction that the Influence
of the Sugar trust was exerted upon demo
cratic senators and not without effect. If
his language means anything tliin Is Its
meaning , and It It sweeping In Its Implica
tion , applying with equal force to every
senator who supported the sugar schedule
of the senate tariff bill. Mr Cleveland
ought to know something about this. Ills
secretary of the treasury was moro than
( nice In consultation with representatives of
the Sugar trust and has been shown to have
had a voice In the framing of the sugar
schedule , If Indeed he did not suggest It us
It now stands. It Is possible that ho may
have done this without the knowledge of
the president , but scarcely probable No
body believes that Mr. Cleveland himself
was approached on this subject by any mom-
tier of the trust , but there Is good ground
for the Inference that he was not unaware
of what had been said to Secretary Carlisle
b > Mr Havemevor , the president of the
monopolj , and that he did not object to the
action of the secretary of the treasury In
connection with this matter. It Is there
fore fair to assume that Mi. Cleveland does
not speak without Knowledge when ho refers
to the "manners and manipulations of trusts
and combinations. "
The remarks of Mr. Wilson , chairman of
the ways and means committee. In the house
are even moro offensive and dimaging than
the Implication of the president. Ills state
ment was that the democratic conferees on
the part of the senate were not
free to act according to their personal
oplnlonn and Judgment but were fettered
by the npprelionslo'i that there were forces
In the senate pov erful enough to resist
successfully the passage of any bill v. lilcli
did not make concessions to great corpora
tions and trust interests. Here was a direct
charge that some of the senate democrats
j > re In the control of a trust , and the subse
quent reference of Mr. Wilson to the Sugar
trust leaves no doubt as to which one was
meant. It seems that the senate democratic
conferees sadly confessed to those of the
house the subjection that they were under
to the democratic allies of monopoly In the
senate and that but for this an agree
ment could have been reached without
dlfllculty. There Is In this something of
a reflection , also , upon the Integrity and the
rensa of duty of the senate conferees which
It may bo assumed they will hardly regard
with entire complacency. It docs not put
them In an enviable position before the
country.
E\ > SpeakEr Heed , In his caustic reference
to the president's nnalgmnent of the senate ,
said : "If he has made a righteous charge
thelt characteis are blackened , and If ho
has made a false charge It Is for them to
see that Justice Is1 done for the truth of
history. " The present Indications arc that
the democratic senators will bo found stand
ing together In resenting the Imputations
cast upon them by the president and the
chairman of the ways and means committee
It Is perfectly obvious that to recede from
the position they have taken would be to
confirm and Justify these Imputations , which
would be more fatal to them politically than
would bo the defeat of tariff legislation
through their action.

SOUTH OMAHA. July 20.To the Editor
of The Dee : Please answer the following
questions and oblige a subscriber :
1. How will the annexing of South Omaha
to Omaha affect the postolllce departments ,
and will this be a station to Omaha of lice ?
2 Can two postmasters hold office In one
cll > ? 13. K. M.
The object of annexation Is to consolidate
the two towns under one municipal govern
ment. When South Omaha Is annexed to
Omaha the South Omaha postofflce will become
a branch of the Omaha postofflce. There
would be no moro use for two postmasters
in one city than there would bo for two
mayors or two city treasurers. Chicago has
annexed a. dozen suburban towns that hud
sepal ate postmasters before consolidation
and have since been made postal branches
of the Chicago ofllce. Their postal facilities
lire as good If not better now than they were
under separate postmasters. They have the
carrier delivery , mall boxes and branch
olllcea that transact all postal business Just
the same as they formerly did. The facili
ties which the larger city enjoys for ex
pediting malls arc shared fully by the
branches. This will be true of South Omaha
after annexation.
There Is another point on which vse may as
well enlighten South Omaha people In this
connection. There Is a prevailing delusion In
South Omaha that a postofllce building will
bo erected there at no distant day. There Is
not the remotest probability that any tmch
structure will over bo built within tlirco
miles of the federal building now under con
struction In Omaha. New York City
with 1,800,000 population has only ono
postolllce building. The same Is true
of Philadelphia , Chicago , Huffalo , Cin
cinnati , Cleveland and otncr cities ranging
from 250,000 upward. Suburban towns rang
ing from 20,000 to 50,000 population adjacent
to these cities have never succeeded In get
ting an appropriation for a postofllco build-
in U Does It stand to reason that South
Omaha would be made an exception ? The
fact Is , that the people of South Omaha have
been humbugged by politicians with promises
they never expected to fulfill , It Is easy
enough to Introduce postolllce building bills ,
and It Is not much trouble to get nub-commit
tees to recommend appropriations tor them
just to assist some clever member to get a
renomlnatlon or re-election , when It la well
Known tlmt such appropriations stand no
show whatever of passing muster through the
liouso.
This Is on unpalatable truth and may aa
well bo told now as later on during the progress -
ress of the discussion over annexation.
Cities which expect the present congress
to make appropriations for them for the con- j
structlon or completion of new public buildIngs - '
Ings are likely to see their hopes sorely
disappointed. The house committee on pub- |
lie buildings hus reported favorably nearly
fifty bills appropriating money for such pur-
po'cs , but BO Interwoven nro the. interests
bick of thciHi t'iailt ' ( will be practically Im
possible to seourcr Action on any one of them
separate froni Ihd rest. The committeeof _
course , had trl d Its utmost to have soiiio
tlmo set apar fgf the consideration of Its
bills , but It has , been" unsuccessful , and It
has no oprortjinlt to call any of them up
during n 8U ppt/uM ) ! ) / of the rules , In fact ,
the democratic ! loaders are anxious to have
this congress ifinkfc a record for economical
expenditures and tire opposed to any appro
priations not Absolutely necessary. If they
can shove these public , building bills on to
their rcpubllcan suecessors they hope to be
nlilo to draw 4sonie telling comparisons be
tween the moneyH expended under authority
of the two congresses. As all of the fifty
cities and towns whose bills have been
placed on the calcmlir think themselves en
titled to as much attention as any other th
prospects for all nre almost equally illscoiir
nglng.

Mr. Cleveland Insists tlmt the principle
of free raw materials Is dear to the demo
cratlc heart What docs the Great Oracle
mean by raw materials ? Is lumber n raw
material ? Is pig Iron a raw material ? I
so , where arc they to be found In the raw
If woo ! Is to bo free because It Is n raw
material , why should we levy an Import dut }
on furs and feathers' Why levy a duty 01
hides , so long as they are not tanned' '
Marble Is a raw material , and so nre onvx
diamonds and other precious stones vvhci
they an unpolished , and jot the Wilson
bill Imposes very heavy duties on these
articles. Eggs , not boiled or hatched , arc
nlso a raw commodity , but there Is a tax o
3 cents a do/en on eggs. Hlco Is a naturn
product , but it Is taxed In tho" raw when
In ported. And the same Is true of castor
beans , garden seeds , dates , pineapples
olives and oranges. Herrings , mixed will
another raw material , called salt , are on the
dutiable list , and so ate codfish and clams
It strikes us that Mr. Cleveland's Idea ol
putting all raw materials on the free list
Just btcauso they nro law Is decided ! )
crude. The so-called principle of free raw
materials Is an economic fiction , with ne
moio principle back of It than the levy of
arbitraly duties upon tills or that commodlt )
under pretense of a tariff for revenue with
Incidental protection.
It Is stated that the persistent leader ol
the free silver men In the house , Mr. Uland
Intends to make another effort to get that
body to consider a bill for the free .coinage
of silver. It Is said that tliero will bo no
difficulty In getting a majority of the com
mittee on coinage , of which Bland Is chair
man , to agree to report such a bill , but the
chances of getting It before the house are
not regarded as favorable under the existing
rules. Of course there Is no possibility ol
such a bill becoming a law , even should It
reach the president , and Mr. Uland's object
Is simply to help himself In his campaign
for ro-election. , It la possible the silver men
will be disposed to help him In this. He
also finds encouragement In the fact that
there Is a good deal of wild talk Just now
In congress on Jhe silver question , In which
some republicans participate. It seems pretty
safe to predict ] h vev6r , that this eleventh
hour movement In behalf of sliver , If se
riously undertaken , will be abortive. It Is
to bo presumedthat ! a majority of congress
men are quite as anxious for a rest from the
subject as the people generally are.
The policy WhFch the state treasurer ? Is
pursuing with regard to the Investment of
the school fund will curtail the Income of
the various school districts considerably.
Under the constitution the interest derived
from the Investment of the permanent school
fund nnd the rental from leased school lands
goes Into the temporary school fund , which is
annually apportioned among the various
school districts In proportion to their rela
tive school population. Now when the treas
urer Invests the permanent school fund In
unregistered state warrants the tcmporarj
school fund loses whatever Interest might
be gotten out of an Investment In Interest-
bearing securities. State warrants draw no
Interest until they are registered. While
It Is true that the Interest on state warrants
would come out of the pockets of the tax
payers In the long run , a shortage of the
temporary school fund curtails the ability of
the people to afford primary education to
their children unless they raise the f Jnds by
excessive local school taxes.
The leading merchants and bankers of Chicago
cage have telegraphed the senate and house
of representatives that "the whole countrj
demands that congress ) terminate the pend
ing tariff legislation Immediately , " This
ought to settle the question at once. Con
gress will not dare to repudiate these In
structions from Chicago. The wrath of Chicago
cage as representative of the whole country
is so dreaded that no member of congress
will venture to Incur It.

WASHINGTON , July 20 Wlillc there has
been no open developments ns to the ne
gotiations bet ween the Stnte department and
the Japanese government respecting tha
withdrawn ! of the Japanese- troops from
Corc.a , there Is ground for the belief that
over ) thing is progressing towards a happy
termination and that that happy result will
be In a large measure attributable to the
beneficent exercise of the good olllces of
the United State. ! Without reference to the
publications that have purported to give
the language of Secretar ) Grcslinm't , dls-
palch It can bu staled now that It contained
nothing thnt could bo construed Into nn nf-
front even In n ttiplomntlu sense. The
quotntlons Hint have been given wore er
roneous , and especially in the sentence that
places the president In the position of as
serting that Japan Is wnging nn unjust
war upon Corei When the correspondence
Is published It will without question be found
that the dispatch contains sincere expres
sions of good will towards both parties to
the controversy and that the government
has simply and In n friendly manner depre
cated the mnlntenincc of conditions that
threaten peace , nnd the president lias ex
pressed the sorrow ho would feel should the
