JAMES DONNELLY, Secretary. Lixcows, April 8 1869, Froxall the large centres of com- merce comes the intelligerce that the great business boom has been checked. Itappewrs that it was no « eady fire that was kindled, and over which we warmed ourselves, but a flame of sbavings that has died down after a few months’ blaze. The trou- ‘ble has been that we have heen in too great haste to get rich, expecting to vide to prosperity at exprees rate. During the days of depression al c'asses suffered so much that they caught at the first signs of increased Jrosperity, sud resolved to make up for lost time. But upfortunately the business boom was started by railway Kings on a epeculition, snd our seem- ing prosperity was consequently arti- fical. These capitalists gave large or- ders for rails and iron snd steel, which buoyed up the market so that they © uld unload and make money by the operation. The result attained is that fistitious values have been created and yrices for eversthing are far above what they should be. Many saw what the consequence of all this would be, but the majority of people were slow t> believe that it was wholly due to the managers of monopolies that high prices had been reached. They learn the truth sll too late, and as a conse- «quence failures in several citier, notsbly in Louisville, Ky., and Milwaukee, Wis., bave been heavy. Although the temporary infiation has heen checked the decline in many im- ortant branches bas not yet reached the required point, and this must come Lefors we can ressonably hope for stability in trade. Whether the check that has been given the busi- news “boom” will be lasting or not rests solely with us, for cach is re- quired to see that he live within his means. There is much in the present tendency taward extravagance to remind one of 1he state of busiuess in 1866, but the Jesson of the past five years ought to make the Americau people more cau- tious and vent a recurrence of commercial disaste: Tee Ohicago Tribune of Tuesday contains the following significant edi- torial: Gov. Oullom, and all the other can- didates for the republican nomination for governor, and all the candidates § rascretary of state, for treasurer, and for lieutenant governor, may ss w.l.llnl:o‘:u-dmlwfico ;h-t ig for any purpose the duly and regularly ap- pointed delegates from this J..n& o refused admittance to the state convention, then the nominations 1hey may reoeive from such a conven- t on will not be worth the paper on which they are recorded. No candi- Gate nominated by a state convention which shall deliberately refuse repre- seutation to the regular delegates of the 47,000 republican voters of this eounty, will be able to command a majority in _any onme of the by wards and tweaty mice townships of this county. Such a #icket will b so generally repudiated #hat it will require a search- warrant to find the few men who will dere to offend public decency by vot- ing for it. Let for places on that state ticket take notice, now, and make up their minds as to what » nomination for a stats office will be w rth with the republicans of Coek couuty left out.

THE SMELTING WORKS STRIKE. ployed in the Omsha smelting work is tors entails serions loss on them and the enforced idleness of nearly two hundred working men, de- prives mot only the mem who are in the strike of their earnings, but aleo eeriously affects the business of our merchants, who depend on the pa- tronaga of these working people. On the one band, the men engaged in this strike maintain that they are under- patd, and cannot, in view of the re- cent rise in the price of provisions, clothing and _rents, make both ends meet at the wagas paid by the smelting works proprie- tors. On the other hand Messrs. Balbach, Mead and Nash maintain that they ars paying all they con af- ford to, and would keep their works closed for the season ratber thaa sub- mit to the demards of the strikers. Now, we have a suggestion to make to the parties to this deplorable contro- versy which we confidently believe would, if acted upon, putan end to the strike without impairing the rights of the workingmen to remunera- tive wages or force the pro- prictors of the smelting works into a concession that would be humiliat- ing. We suggost that this controversy batween capital and labor be sattled by arbitration. Let the workingmen select cns man to represent their interest, the smelting works pro- prietors chosse snother > represent the'r interests and let the two arbitra- tors choose a third. Submit all the points et issue to these three men and let their decision be binding on both the workingmen end the emelting works proprietors. This is not only a legitamaie but a fair methol of settling such issucs, and if oursuggestion is prompt- ly acted on the smelting works will be in full operation within the mext torty-eight hours, and the men who are now on a strike will bs at work.

Philadelphia Enquirer, Rep. We believe that if there ever was any danger of the nomination of the ex-presideut there is no longer any. 1t all depended upon Pennsylvania's solid vote, and that it will not receive. The third-term movement is like a burst balloon, orlike a tub withont a bottom, or a barrel without hoops, the Philadelphia delegates to Chicago has, in giving expression to the will of the overwhelming majority of the Re- publican voters, destroyed it. Gen- eral Grant has now presented to him the greatest opportunity of his life— to withdra — Ratlroad Legisiation. In a comprehensivearticle upon the railroad situation and upon the im- perative necessity of regulating the carrying trade of the country by pru- dent sand wholesome national legisla- tion, the Philadelphia Press says: Thescatteredrailroads of thecountry are gradually falling into another of a few vast systems. They are thereby rendered more efficient in their work- ings and more useful to the public, But with the corrective influence of competition withdrawn, jthey are left in the undisputed possession of & mighty and irresponsible power. They are able to appropriate to themselves the entire profits of a rising market, to withdraw facilities from one point in favor of another, to change the course of trade and make the-value of prop- erty and the price of commodities de- pendent on their policy. State laws are necestarily utterly ineffective in controlliog roads traversing perhaps s dozen states. A wise and moderate national nil:dond dlaw, which will en- ly supersede the fragment and ineffective control wmgn?:n:.?n at- tompting, is imperatively demanded There are clearly defined evi's to be remedied, and no sgency short of ths restraining hand of the national gos- and reach across the oceans. — The New Parliament.
