Althouch the house quite surprised itself
by passing a resolution calling for the sub
mission of a constitutional amendment vest-
Inc the election of senators In a direct vote
of the people , wo may rest assured that the
senate will conblder the matter much more
I deliberately. The danger Is not sulllclently
Imminent to ruffle the plans of existing sena
I torial candidates.
Ex-Senator Ingalls Is perfectly candid
about his retirement from public life. Ho
did not give up his position In the senate
voluntarily , but only after a bird struggle

that , but ho has remained In retirement In
voluntarily and would bo the last to let an

In the press account of the proclaiming' of
the now Hawaiian constitution It Is stated
that tliorci wns no military display whatever
nnd that the men on the United States war
ship Philadelphia were not landed for the
reason that the Hawaiian government thought
It best not to give Its enemies thechaiico
to say that the change was muda whllo
United States troops wcro present to in-
tlmldato the royalists. This Is a very pretty
explanation , but It ilves ; the Impression that
the men on the American warship are at

After the renunciation by the United States
at the Interference of th American minis
ter In the original change from royallsm to
republicanism It would be folly to repeat
the offensive performance. The American
niou-or-war wcro sent to I In wall to protect
American Interests and not to support uno
Kovernmont or the other. Had men been
landed to Intimidate royalists during the
proclamation of the new constitution thn
United States government would liavo haJ
something more to disavow. *
Considerable discussion Is being had In
different parts of the country ni to the neces
sity of readjusting the status of the regular
nrmy In order that H may bo bettor pre
pared to facilitate the work of federal pro
tection to Interstate commerce. It Is ad
mitted on nil sides that the recent action of
President Cleveland In calling out United
States troops In the flrat Instance to prevent
the Internipllon of railway trafllc between
the states constitutes nn extension of the
functions of the army. Whether or not
the president was right In so doing the fact
stares us In the face that If the precedent Is
to hold sooil the federal troops will no
longer be confined In their duties to guard
ing frontier forts and overawing the Indians.
In order to meet these new conditions sev
eral proposals have been advanced that have
received the approval of different government
authorities , both civil and military. One
Is that the existing troops bo redistributed
throughout the counliy , with the object of
protecting the railways held specially In
view. It Is argued that the danger spots
nre most generally In or near the great
cities , where the railway facilities are cen
tered , and that If they are taken care of the
strategic points will ho covered. The minor
outlying posts xhould , therefore , be aban
doned , and all the soldiers that can possibly
be spared should be massed In the neighbor
hood of the largo cities , so that they can bo
quickly drawn Inlo service. Another nnd
allied proposition Is to double or treble the
regular armjso as to enable it to occupy
nil the ground covered nt present , nnd man
n large force at the exposed points of our
Interstate railway system. The increase In
the nrmy would be for the express purpose
of affording federal protection to Interstate
commerce without the Intervention of the
civil authorities , state or national , With
It might comea redistribution of the forces
should that appear to be desirable.
All these plans , it will be noticed , pro
ceed upon the hypothesis that the out
breaks of lawlessness which recently re
quired the federal authority for suppression
are to be constanlly recurring , nnd that the
United States troops are to bo repeatedly
summoned to put down Insurrectionary mobs
who may bo obstructing railway trafllc. They
tibsume that the government will prefer to
deal with labor troubles among railway em-
plojea by the use of the military rather
than by supervision and regulation. This
assumption is manifestly unwarranted. It
would transform our government Into a
mllltaiy despotism instead of a government
of law. It would Invite further outbreaks
Instead of repressing them. It would mean
tint congress has confessed Its Inability
to deal with the problem , and had handed
It over In despair to the army. If the
federal government Is to protect Interstate
cpmmerco It must do so by peiceful. means
Itcrort to the nrmy must be had only In
cases of direct emergency. Interruption of
trafllc must be prevented by regulating the
relations of railway employers nnd em-
plojes. Provide a method by which dif
ferences can be amicably settled with Jus-
tlco to all parties concerned and the services
of the regular nrmy will be altogether super
fluous The expedience with military rule
which we have just had should teach us the '
necessity of legislation that will forever and
finally prevent Its recurrence.
1HC JIHAD TAX HrhL , ,
The Bee has no disposition to criticise
Congressman Melklejohn on the score of his
bill to check immigration , but it strikes us
that Its provisions nro crude and impractic
able. The levy of ? 100 head tax upon every
man. woman and child that wants to mi-
Erato to America would exclude the most
thrifty and desirable class of Immigrants ,
such as farmers and domestics. Very few
farmers who have even small families could
afford to pay a bonus of $100 for the privilege
of coming to America , and It Is safe to say that
not one out of a hundred respectable house
servants could command any such sum. On
the other hand , the most undesirable Immi
grants , the anarchists , would readily find
somebody to advance them the necessary
head tax. The clause In the bill that re
mits the proposed head tax for all Imral-
srants that have relatives in this country
or are vouched for by native or naturalized
American citizens would make the head tax
Inoperative. Steamship companies and im
migrant agents would experience no diffi
culty In procuring the necessary vouchers
nnd invitations to como at from CO cents to
? 1 per Immigrant , possibly even for less than
half a dollar. The wholesale trafllc la im
migrant certificates would be very profitable.
As n matter of fact there Is no occasion for
the proposed head tax and will not bo for
years to come. The stream of immigration
Is almost as tlry ns the Republican liver In
one of the drouth vears. There are more
aliens leaving this country than are now
comlns and the cuncnt of migration Is not
likely to change until there Is a general b t-
terment In the condition of American pro
ducers In the field and workshop.
nv 'ini : t-vsATE.
The friends of the anti-option bill In the
seiuto Bc'm disposed to force the fighting
for the measure. When the bill went to the
sonalo It was laid on the table , Sjnator Hoar
having expressed a deslrp to speak on It.
This was more than two weeks ago and the
supporters of the bill , becoming restless. It
was taken from the table and referred to i
the committee on agriculture There was not
a dissenting vote on the motion to do this ,
which Is regarded as an Indication favor
able to the measure , since In the last con-
giess It wns reffrred to the committee on
Judiciary. It is Bald that If the bill had
b ? ° n sent to the latter committee at this
tlmo the adverse report would probably have
been by n majority of at least blx ngilnst
live , whereas In the list congress thioa
different icports were made and a majority of
the committee was not united upon any
definite proposition.
A favoinblo report on the bill at an early
day Is foreshadowed by the easy triumph of
Its advocates In referring it to the committee
on agriculture All the members of the
committee except two ore knonn to favor
the measure and all of them who wore mem
bers of the last congress voted for the anti-
option bill which passed the senate In Jau
nty , 1S03. The two members of the commit
tee who do not favor the bill will not bo able
to throw any serious obstacles In the way
of nn early report and doubt Is expressed
whether either of them will c-jro to take a
conspicuous part In opposition , A favorable
ro'iort Is expected this week , which will
put the bill In position for consideration nt
the beginning of the short session In Decem
ber , should its opponents bo able to prevent
Its coming to a % ote. This they may do by
protracted debate , but Senator Washburn of
Minnesota , who Is championing the measure ,
Is of the opinion that the opposition will not
show anything like th bitterness and reso
lution they manifested In the last congress.
Then the Louisiana bcnntura made a most It
determined fight against anti-option legisla
tion , but other men uovr reprcstnt that state ;
In the senate , nnd ono of them , Mr Dltnrh-
nrd , voted In the house for the nntl option
bill. This Is n source of weakness to the op
position.
The well Informed Washington correspond
ent of the New York Commercial Bulletin ,
which In not friendly to the proposed legis
lation , says that the present situation and
the unanimity with which the senttc allowed
the bill to go to the committee on agricul
ture arc much more favorable to Its pass
age next winter than has heretofore ap
peared to be the case. He says Its oppo
nents can probably rely upon the
veto of the president , buteven
this would not bo decisive If the sennto
should cast n two-thirds vote for the bill.
The house did not give quite two-thirds on
Its passage In that Irady and would probably
show n heavier negative vote In support -of n
veto , but- this correspondent suggests that
the situation Is such that the opponents of
the bill can hardly afford to refrain alto
gether from n "campaign of education"
against It. Evidently the passage of the bill
In the senate may bo regarded as assured ,
and It Is very likely to bo done at the pres
ent session.

The semi-annual statement of County
Treasurer Irey , which has Just l 3cn made
public , is of more than ordinary Interest
to the taxpayers of Douglas county. In
many respects the exhibit made by the treas
urer Is more than satisfactory. In spite of
the general business depression and lack of
activity In the real estate market the collec
tion of county taxes has been as prompt
during last year as it had been during the
preceding year. The only drawback ex
perienced In the collection of taxes has been
by reason of the recent Judicial decision re
lating to the assessment of special Improve
ment taxes. This decision has not only
caused a stoppige of special tax payments on
the part of property owners , but also a with
drawal of capital usually invested at tax
sales. It is perfectly natural that any at
tack on the validity of a tax levy tends to
weaken confidence In tax titles. That there
must be additional legislation relating to pub
lic Improvement taxes before we can hope to
make any hsadway In their collection is as
self-evident as is the fact that no more pub-
HQ Improvements can bo undertaken , in
Omaha until wu can feel sure that the taxes
levied for making these Improvements will
.
bo collectable.
The disbursements of the county treasurer
for the six months ending July 1 aggregate
over $300,000. This includes the school dis
trict funds and amounts disbursed through
village treasurers as well as the redemption
money paid for city taxes of Omaha. Of
the $350,000 disbursed directly $111,485 23 were
contributed Into the state treasury. The
state tax for the entire year aggregates
.
$1CS,000. Deducting therefrom $70,000 ap
portioned to Douglas county from the state
school fund this county pays $98,000 toward
J the maintenance of state institutions and ex
penses of state government. It should bo
,
borne In mind , however , that the state pays
the salaries of our district judges and the
official stenographers. Computing six of the
seven judges as properly chargeable to Douglas
.
las county and we have an aggregate of $24-
000 c a year that might properly be deducted
from the state tax , leaving $74,000 as the not
state tax for the 3 ear.
The balances on hand on July 1 aggregated
? 370,4G3 87. Of this amount $55,053.11 is in
the general fund and only $608.30 outstand-
Ing in warrants against this fund. Therol
were $30,547.45 in the bridge fund and only
$24 outstanding against that fund. The
largest fund In the county treasury on hand
at this time Is of course the fund set apart
for paving county roads , which represents
the proceeds of $150,000 of paving bonds.l
Inasmuch as the county is draw Ing 3 per cent
interest on the surplus in Its treasury the
accumulation of over $370,000 In ready funds
is no disadvantage.
As a whole our county finances nro In very
fair shape.
OERMAKY MAY IlKTALIATE.
The Information that great- Interest Is
felt In Germany regarding the proposal to
levy 1 a discriminating duty of one-tenth of
1t 1c cent a pound on sugar from countries
that t pay an export bounty Is quite credible
and It is easy to bellovo the statement
that there is talk of retaliation. In the event
that this proposal prevails. Germany exports -
ports a large amount of sugar annually to
the United States. It Is an Important Item
of her commerce with this country and ono
which her sugar producers would feel the
loss 1 of. The proposed discriminating duty
would probably destroy this trade , or at
any rate greatly reduce It , a result which the
German people would naturally feel disposed
to show their displeasure with In some form
of commercial retaliation. It Is said that
0e 0a duty on American petroleum has been
suggested , but there are other wajs in
which Germany could retaliate , ns 'by re
storing the embargo against American hog
products.
It Is well understood that the chief reason
why the German government revoked the
regulations which kept our hog products
out of the German markets was the appre
hension that a continuance of that discrim
ination' would lead this country to discrim
inate against the sugar of Germany by sub
jecting It to a duty. ' This government had
vainly appealed to the German government
for jears to remove the discrimination
agllnst American pork , but as soon ns the
rl
present tariff went Into effect , with its
reciprocity clause , the protest of our govern
ment against what It regarded ns unjust
treatment received attention nnd Germany
removed the objectionable restrictions. It
did this In splto of a strong opposition on
the part of the farmers of that country ,
who feared the competition of American
pork and who undoubtedly would now wel
come a return to the former condition.
There can be no question that If the German
government were to re-establish the policy IIh
III
of excluding American hog products It would I
bo nn extremely popular move with the t
b
farmers of that country. bb
It la stated that the German government b
desires that nothing shall occur to prejudice
the good relations between the two countries , tifi
and It | s not likely anything but very grave fis fia
neeosslty could mar this good feeling. s
B'
Doubtless this Is true. It appears to bo B'n
the disposition of Kmpcror William to cul- Is '
tlvate friendly relations with all countries
nnd there are obvious reasons why he should
espesclnlly desire to maintain such relations
with this great commercial power. Hut
neither the German government nor the Ger
man people can reasonably bo expected to of
complacently accept a policy on our part that
would bo very damaging It not disastrous
to a valuable commercial Interest ot Ger
many and continue to accord to us the same
consideration given Under different condi
tions. The fact ought to bo recognized that
la possible for Germany to Inflict damage
upon our trailo with that country without
Injury to herself , and If wo adopt a policy ho
Inimical to her interests wo must expect

The committed on suffrage of the New York

carried on by tho"li > Hv'ocates of woman suffrage <
frago last wlnt'r 'fn" ' which a number of
women of social ijIsU/ictlon were enlisted ,
has , therefore , beep fruitless , and the failure
Is In no small dtgicoJduo to Women. The
opposing movement , ' the organization of
women who did not , want the suffrage for
themselves , quite .matched the oiganlratlon
of the suffragist ) ! , and- besides the fact was
made plain that the greater number of
wives and mothers and sisters throughout
the state wore lthcr absolutely Indifferent
or else opposed to the proposed amendment
*
to the state constitution. Of course the
convention Is jet to net upon the reports
of the committee , but the result Is not at
all doubtful. The action of the committee
will bo approved. This defeat of the woman
suffragists may not bo decisive. They will
undoubtedly continue to agitato. Hut the
blow will bo very damaging to their cause , If
It is not fatal.
Nothing Is left now for Mr. Debs but to

struggle longer at present.
It is natural to suppose that the private

Stromsburg News : Jack MacColl for gov-

of the republican state papers The News
has no particular choice for this or any
other ofllce. but wants to see a straight , up *
right republican nominated , and does not
care what his name will be. While this Is
a republican year It will be well to mention
that no dissensions should be tolerated at
the coming state convention , nnd that the
choice for candidates , should be unanimous ,
as the republicans cannot afford to split up
on any of the candidates Let there be
harmony among the republicans this fall and
victory will perch on our banner.
Judge Kinkald still continues to bo ono of
the leaders in the race for the republican
congressional nomination In the Sixth dis
trict , Like all other men the Judge has his
little peculiarities and a number of stories
are told at his expense. The Judge is a great
handshaker , Just like Grant , Before ho was
elected to the bench the judge was practic
ing law at O'Neill , and ofllcing with him was
another man , who chanced to step out one
day and on his return found the judge en
gaged In earnest conversation with one of
his clients. Hearing some ono enter and
without turning to see who it was , the Judge
mechanically extended his hand and said :
"Good morning ; how ore you ? Just take
a chair and I will be at leisure in a mo
ment. " Whllo at Chadron the other evening
the judge shook hands with one man five
times and still retained the gentleman's
friendship.

Grand Island Times' : It may lie a little
previous to address the gentleman from
Dawson county by the title of governor , but
the press of the state may ab well accept
the Inevitable and accustom Itself to the use w
of a title which will be most worthily be
stowed ere the Ides of November draw to a
close. Those who nre watching the current
of political winds whisking every straw In
the direction of Jack MacColl realise full well
that a r > clone of popular approval will land
that gentleman high and dry In the guber
natorial chair. So far ns the republicans of
Nebraska are cancel ned the fight for the
nomination at the coming convention hns
narrowed down to a choice between MacColl If
and Majors. MncColl has the almost solid
and unsolicited support of the republican
press , and the level-headed men who mould
public opinion are coaching their favorlto
In a manner which speaks volumes for his
success. In fact MacColl Is extremely liable
to be nominated by acclamation on the first
ballot.
