The bnnkruptry bill reported to tl
honsc from Hie Judiciary committee , f
n substitute for tlio Nel on bill whit
paasod the senate at the cxtm sessloi
Is n modification of the Torrey bill an
retains nil the essential features of tli
latter. The inensnre 1ms brun give
most careful coiisldnrntlon by the hotif
committed ami while It is likely to li
amended to some extent In the lion ;
It Is expected to pass that Iwdy In Bid
stnntlally the form In which It cam
from the Judiciary committee. The all
of the committee tins been to make th
bill as liberal as possible and the con
inlttee suggests In Its report that If !
has erred at all It Is In going too far 1
this direction.
In reference to the Nelson bill th
house Judiciary committee felt that 1
does not fully meet the Interests of th
country. That measure has no ndequat
provision for anything but volnutnr ,
bankruptcy nnd Is generally so defeellv
that It has failed to receive thu aj
proval of any of the commercial bodle
of the country. At the extra session o
congress the senate sulKtlinted It for th
Torrey bill , ome of the senators wh
voted for It doing KO not because the ,
thought It the better measure , but Ii
older that bankruptcy legislation migh
be furthered. As the situation nov
stands there Is favorable promise of s
national bankruptcy law being eiiartei
at the present session of. congress
There Is no doubt that the house bill , o
as It Is commonly designated , the lion
derson bill , will pass the house at ai
early day. In the senate It would com- -
up as a substitute for the bill passed b ;
that body at the extra session and prob
ably would be sent to n committee o
conference. As everybody Is aware wlit
has given attention to this .subject , tin
vital point of controversy Is in regard t <
Involuntary bankruptcy. There Is verj
strong opposition , in and out of con
gress , to legislation that would glv <
creditors the power , whatever the re
strlctlons upon Its exercise , to forci
debtors Into bankruptcy. The Nelsoi
bill , as we have already ald , has in
adequate provision for anything bu
voluntary bankruptcy , while the I lender
son bill makes provision for both vol
notary and Involuntary bankruptcy
The conlllet between house and senat.
will be chieily In respect to this and li
remains to be si-en whether the opposi
tion In the latter body to the luvolun
tary provision Is still as strong as here
tofore tdiown.
Thu business Interests of tlio eonntrj
were never more anxious than at thl >
time for the enactment of a uniforn :
bankruptcy law and they want a law
that will stand. This subject has beer
agitated for llfteen years or longer ami
every important commercial body in tin
nation has urged congress year aftei
year to exercise the power given it bj
the constitution to "establish uniform
laws on the subject of bankrupteie.-
throughout the United States. " Th :
state laws oiv the subject operate un
fairly and unjustly and the onl.v
lemedy is to be found In a uniform
national law , which will deal justly tc
both creditors and debtors. It is no !
to be doubted that such legislation
would have an excellent effect upon tht
business of the country.

The cabinet crisis In Japan has passed
and a new ministry lias been installed ,
with Marquis Ho at Its head. The re
turn to otllclal service of this dis
tlnguished oriental statesman gives as
suiance that wNo and cousurvatlvr
counsel will prevail in the government
of Japan. Ito is an exceedingly able
man , with n Jarger knowledge of the
affairs of the' world' than any other
Japanese statesman. lie is a progress
ive man , who believes in promoting tlir
commercial growth of Ids country and
keeping free from conflicts and en
tanglements with other nations
which would interfere with Japan's
advance commercially. lie Is an
ardent friend of tlio United States
and our cordial relations with Japan
will suffer no impairment while he Is
In power.
The situation In the far east imposes
grave responsibility upon Japan. She
must be prepared to resist any designs
nf European powers In that quarter hos
tile to her Interests or which may
threaten a diminution of her power.
In order to maintain her position she
must have a large navy and Japan's pol
icy In this direction Is comprehensive.
The conditions that confront her are of
11 nature that calls for the wisest states
manship In their treatment and the
ministry formed by Marquis Ito Is un
doubtedly representative of the b.-st
ability available. It may be counted
upon to llrmly oppose any European
aggression In that portion of the world.
K HAVANA
There Is nothing surprising in the out-
hurst of Spanish hostility to autonomy
that occurred in Havana. The 111100111
promising antagonism of that clement
to the Sagnsta policy has baea-well un
derstood and the wonder is that It was
so long held In restraint. As General
1'alma , tlio head of the Cuban junta In
the United States , says , the Spaniards
in Culm detest the natives of that Island
and believe the only course to pursue
toward them Is that which Weyler
iidopted. Offering the Cubans conces
sions these Spaniards regard as In the
last degree humiliating to Spain , as
well us n most grave political blunder.
They consider the Cubans totally unlit
for riolf-government nnd regard them a&
not simply an inferior race , but a people
ple unworthy to have the privileges of
clvlll/.atlon , The recall of Weyler and
the inauguration of the policy of au
tonomy aroused the Indignation and
wrath "of the Cuban Spaniards to an In
tense pitch and the pent up anger had
lo break out. That It has not exhausted
Itself In destroying the property of news ,
papers favorable to autonomy may 1m
safely assumed and while the authori
ties state that no further trouble Is ex
pected the spirit manifested shows that
the danger of another and more formid
able outbreak Is present.
It appears that the situation Is re
garded at Washington as not calling for
nny action on tlw part of this govern
ment , but some measure of precaution
might he wise. There are conceivable
drciimstanees that would require our
government to act and It should be pre
pared to do so. The Spaniards In CubA
hate Americans only less Intensely than
they hate Cubans nnd the life and prop
erty of American citizens In Havana
would not be safe In the event of an
outbreak of Spanish passion and vie
lence. The talk of Intervention under
existing conditions Is of course Idle , but
Spanish hatred could not be allowed U
vent Itself upon American citizens Ii
Cuba without calling for very vigorous
action on the part of the Pulled S Intro
Therefore n few war ships convenient ! )
stationed would be a proper precaution
to which Spain could make no reason
able objection. The spirit of tin
Spaniards In Cuba Is such as to warrau
our government In being ready for a
possible exigency ,

There Is no danger whatever that the
contention over the de facto and de
functo police commission will cmbrol
this city In riot , bloodshed or disorder.
'There Is no disposition on the part of
the mayor and council to precipitate a
coutllct with the bogus reform police
board. The only exidbltlon of force in
view Is the installation of policemen b >
the old board In the rooms occupied bj
It In the city hall while every member
of the force Is needed to patrol the city
nnd protect Its citizens from footpads
and burglars.
While Judge Scott's decision leaves the
reform board without any legal exist
ence , Mayor Moores nnd the city council
upon whom devolve the duty of provitV
ing for the government of the lire am' '
police departments , will take no steps
to dislodge tlio board except throng ]

In the contest between the Denvei
newspapers and the Denver department
store trust , the sympathies of Thu Kec
are emphatically with the newspapers ,
This is n free connit'y and every busi
ness man engaged In private enterprise
lns an inalienable rlglu to tix the price
of Ids wares , just as every individual
American citl'/.en has the right to
llx the price of Ids labor or services ,
It would bo a most arrogant s'ssump-
tion for any newspaper to attempt
to dictate the price at which a mer
chant whom It patronizes shall sell ids
goods and for the newspapers of any
city to combine for the purpose of forc-
ng an arbitrary reduction in the price- "
of goods without reference to their orig-
mil cost or the conditions under which
they are sold would bo justly regarded
as a high-handed outrage.
In trying to justify themselves In re
fusing to submit to t'ne demands of the
lepartmcnt store trust the Denver
papers are , however , decidedly off. in
the comparisons they make between
liemselve.s and the Omaha , dailies.
They assert , for example , that the
Omaha papers are Inferior In quality
and quantity to those of the Colorado
capital. While the question- quality
s something to be decided by this pub
lic , the quantity and variety of news is
measurable. AVitliout disparaging our
Denver contemporaries , The Hoe ven
tures to claim for itself superiority in
> oth and its claim in that respect can-
lot be successfully controverted. Flar-
ng cartoons covering acres of space do
lot constitute news and this class of
natter is the only feature in wlflch the
Denver papers can truthfully claim to
nitrank The Bee.
The assertion that It costs one-third
nore to print a paper in Denver than in
Omalia Is equally fallacious. This may
ie true of some Omaha papers , but it ift
lot true of The Bee any more titan It
s true that the Associated Press chargt-
for Omalia Is ' > 100 less per week for
; uch paper than It Is In Denver. While
he Associated Press carries the di.s-
mtches over f > 00 miles more of wire lo
ionvor than to Omalia , the charge to
aeh paper In Denver is only ? 17. per
veek , while Hie rate for Oimilm is $ MO
ler week for morning papers , instead 'or
; " ! " > , as represented by the Denver
mpors. The special cable news service
of The Bee alone costs almost half as
nucli more as the Associated Press
service and no Denver paper attempts
o duplicate it.
On the other hand , the Denver papers
nadvertently make n mistake to their
llsadvantugo in quoting the advertising
atos of Tlie Bee as10 cents per agate
quare , when as a matter of fact the
verage yearly contract rate is 70 cents ,
t may also be of Interest to our Denver
ontemporaries to know that Omaha
business men pay The Bee's rates for
idvertlslng cheerfully , because they
viiow they are getting full value In re-
urn.
By the change made In the diplomatic
Hisitions to which Kdwin II. Conger of
own and Charles Page Bryan of 1111
mis had been appointed , assigning the
ormer to China and the latter to
Jrazll , the president turns a neat trick
n diplomatic circles. The only objec-
lon to sending Mr. Bryan to China wan
lecause of the demand for a more ex-
erlenced man to represented the United
States In a position where serious coin
dications are likely to arise at any mo-
in-lit. The transposition ought to silence
It further objection.
The complaint of a California criminal
gainst u Sail I'Vanelseo newspaper par-
hilly vindicates the much-maligned

slier and the artist who made the

The case of the South Dakota olllce-
lolder who committed suicide to escape

The organization of the "Immigration
Protective league" In New York Is one of the
signs that the LoJge- Immigration bill will
not bo passed without an earnest protest.
\moiiR the members of this association arc
native-born as well as naturalized citizens
of prominence In both parties. At the sug
gestion of IHon. William iJlurlteCockran ,
ircsldent of the league , It la proposed to
lold a mass meeting In 'New ' York at an
early day against the Lodge bill or any other
measure In restraint of Immigration. The
senate will vote on the dual passage of the
edge bill on the 17th lust. , but there will
> o tlmo enough to make an effective appeal
o the house , among the members of which
) ody no little change of sentiment has
akcn place on this question.
At a rreetliif ; of the league on Friday
afternoon last a letter was read from Mr.
William Lloyd Garrison of Ilnjton , who
earnestly urges that memorials bo sent to
congress without delay to protest against
'tho Inhuman , un-American policy of ex
cluding Immigrants. " A long list was also
ead of newspapers of large circulation
hroUgliout the country which have ex
pressed their opposition to the Lodge hill.
Although the German Immigrants would bo
affected less probably than those of nny
other nationality by the passage of this bill ,
t -creditable to the liberality of our Gcr-
ran-born fellow citizens that they are gen
erally opposed to the measure , and that to
heir efforts Is chiefly duo the agitation
against Its passage.

The original object of the free gift enter-
rlso was doubtless praiseworthy , In that It

and his brilliancy ns a pcpnlar epcakct .u
high an opinion must be held as when he
made that marvelous lour of the union , rous
ing ncople everywhere with his earnest and
clashing eloquence , but he no longer Im
presses as a great man nor as one of iilghc : . !
slncirlty. Ho Is showing narrowness or >
rltatlonnl obstinacy , cither of which had been
detrimental to hl < i ambition and muet be hurt
ful to the prospects ot the movement ho rep
resents.
"The persistence withwhich ho clings to
1G to 1 , as If that wcro not only the solitary
tenet In the democratic creed , but the axis
of n revolving cosmos , betrays cither Hryan's
Incapacity to comprehend Hryanlsm or a
dogged disposition that refuses to acknowl
edge what Is presented to hli cyos nnd those
of every other Intelligent man In the coun
try , whether for or against the Chicago pint-
form of the new democrats.
"Consider what Bryanlsm real Hryanlsm.
means. That word sounds now In the United
States for the whole battle of the mcnj
against tyrcnny nnd spoliation at the hands
of a few. It Is a declaration of war upon
plutocracy , not against ( .xoporty , but against
the aggressions of property upon the rights
of ttoe people. The imo fight has been going
M over since the strong wcro first tempted
lo cypress and plunder the weak ; that Is to
bay. ever since mankind has lived upon the
earth. Dut the appalling duration of this
war Is not n reason why It should bo aban
doned as luocloss b > 4 the victims.
"Tho euro , scientists say , Is to bo found In
the nationalization of all capital , nil Indus
try. The George philosophy says It lies In
the appropriation of land values for public
purposes. Others look for relief to legisla
tion against trusts nnd the abolition of the
protective tariff ; others turn to Christianity
and hope by moral suasion to raise the Indi
vidual above the -sin of larceny , no matter
low long sancMficd by time and usage the
'orm of theft may : be.
"Ilryan appears to believe that the free
coinage of silver at the ratio of 1C to 1 will
do It , and the Intelligent nnd educated prop
erty-owning classes of the country rise and
clamor against him In wrath and terror , as
f they , too , believed he had touched the
nitton. Also , millions of men who hope for
nstead of dread the Inauguration of n square
leal , agrco with Bryan on the principle , for
the most part , that It is better to try any
remedy than none.
"A mining 'camp ' that should rebel against
i cheating faro bank and then content
tsclfwith - changing the color of the chips
while leaving -the box and cards In pos
session of the dealer to go on with the
; amc , would have a flattering likeness to
Jryan.
' 'A sound currency Is Important. Nobody
vlll deny that , and so long ns our money
nust have a metallic basis , It Is better that
t should have two metals rather than one.
\n appreciating dollar Is as dishonest as a
depreciating one , and does more harm , for
he appreciating dollar robs those who have-
east.
"Bimetallism , by all means. It Is the
money of the constitution , and therefore
democratic , but why sixteen to one or death ?
What decree of heaven has given that ratio
a sacrcdness beyond all other possible
atlos ?
"Thereare hundreds of thousands of as
; oed bimetallism as Bryan himself who
ibjcct to sixteen to one. They believe In
loncst money , the bimetallic money of the
institution ; .but they also believe that the
question of ratio Is a detail that may well
) o left to congress to debate , and to cxperl-
nco. ( They arc nnable to comprehend why
a mere subsidiary matter of expedience and
iractlcal business Judgment should be made
ho keystone of the party arch. They find
liemsclves , though doubtful of the prac-
Icablllty of sixteen to one , still capable of
electing the robbery of protection. They
ven admit that it Is possible that -Bryan
nay be right In his belief that the remonctl-
atlon of silver would create such a demander
or the metal as to restore Us price , but
hey do not believe It. It Is a matter over
which blmctalllsts can differ and remain
good democrats.
"U'hat reason Is there" In sense , what rc-a-
on In sane politics , why Bryon should
Mad en sixteen to one , and speaking as the
load of the democratic party , declare. 'He
h > it Is not for mo In this is against me. ' Is
here not enough ground outside of the qties-
ion of ratio to draw itho democrats together
or common war against the rule of plutoc-
acy. fleecers of people ? And the main
B'ng in- the new democracy mat took up the
word at Chicago Is not sixteen to one. That
s the fly on the wheel. By magnifying It
s Mr. Bryan docs ho is doing the newdemoc.
acy IncalctlMblo mischief.
"The nomlnatlcn came to Bryan In 1835
no a frea gift , presented with flowers , music
nd an acclaim that thrilled the country ,
'ho nomlriitlon In 1000 Is being sought by
iry-in. sought lindustrlously. In ways raado
nmlllar'by men of all parties who are am-
iltious to bo president , Bryan Is revealing
ilinself as a politician.
"There are larger men in the democratic
arty than Bryan. At present they keep , or
re kept In- the rear , for his primacy Is so
vldrat that rivalry Is not Invited. But It
a a long tlmo to 1900 , and' If Bryan shall
ontlmie to reveal his limitations at the rate
c- have witnessed- within the last year , ho
vlll have to fight for the nomination for
which ho Is innvv maneuvering , and the more
ho fights for It the more likelihood Is there
thc't ' he will Iceo It.
"Tho democratic platform of 1898 demands
1G to 1. nut there Is nothing dtvlno about
platforms that they should bo the sumo
yesterday , today and forever. Democratic
platforms have altered ere now. One of
thorn pronounced the war to be a failure.
Gettysburg was the answer to that , and the
next platform took cognizance of the answer.
"Tho new ) democracy should with gladness
vlbw the hottest hostility that the parly
which defends the privileges of plutocracy
can offer , but the democratic party should
not give up the battle on an Incidental ques
tion , but fight for Its vital contention , which
Is that the men of this republic and not Its
mllllona ehould rule It. Let us challenge the
trusts and all the bencflcVirles and upholders
of the system oE favoritism in legislation of
which the trusts are- the necessary and Ilius-
tratlvo fruit , to a llfo and death conflict.
That ! a tho- duty and hearty wish of the new-
democracy.
"Tho nun whoIs of the opinion that the
demand for the free coln-igc of silver at a
ratio of in to 1 Is the teat and only way la
which thl/i challenge can bo given , and that
no citizen .who ( low not agrco with him c--n
bo allowed to light on his sldo , may be admirable -
mirablo for his earnestness , but ho Is not to

head. Dryan may , It ho chooses , stick like
an oyster to the rock of 1C to 1 , hut the
atream of new democracy will not bo station ,
ary for liU Bike , nor for any m-in'a. Dryan-

of free homesteads for Cherokee strip set
tlors.The "west side" favors Immediate ,
statehood for Oklahoma with present bounda
ries. The east , wants statehood deferred until
the Oklahoma and Indian Territory may bo
admitted as one state , believing this would
effectually retain the capital. The free silver
element opposes Immediate statehood , fear-
1 Ing the election of republican senators. Thu
Cherokee strip opposes Immediate statehood ,
deeming free homes more Important and
fearing to ask congress for too much at
once. A big split Is likely to occur and exciting -
