A CRISIS AT HAND. Omsha has reached a stage of growth that demands a eystem of pub- lic works aod_public improvements that will run fnto the hundred thou- sands. If this money is judiciously expended by houest men, Omaha will not only grow into.a largs gity within a few yoars, but ehe will become the most desirable voint in the west for permanent investment. Our city debt compared with the debt of other cities of the same population is very moderate. Whatever faults we may find with our present city government, nobody ‘can charge it With dishonesty or reck, less extravagancs;~ The design of the framers of our new charter was to give. Qmahs better city government than she now has by rafsing the stan. dapd of councilmen and jntroducing other reforms.

In anarticle on the proposed ship railway across the Isthmus of Tehuan- tepec in The North American Review for March by James B. Eads, the diss tinguished engineer,discustes the pro- ject with a clearness and' fairness of spirit that challenge attention. He admits that “if a caml were equally practioable st Tehauntepec, o intelli- gent American would hesitate a mo- ment to give it tho . preference over any other route; but,” he adds, “are 93 | the immense natoral advantages of figures! Ten millions of net eatnings would represent twenty per cent. on an investment of fifty millions, “ten per cent. on an investment of one hun- dred millionsand eight per cent. on one hundred ‘and twenty-five millions. The Chizago, Burlington and Quincy company owns and operates 3,197 miles of railway. This includes the ‘main line between Chicago and Oma- ba, te B. & M. in Nebrasks, and all the numerouns branches in Ilinols, Towa, Nebrasks and Missouri. Ac- cording to General Manager Touzslin, who is good authority on the cost of railway constractiun, $20,000 per mile is a liberal estimate for building and equipping suy rail- way inthe west. At that rate the actual investment in the C., Bi& Q. rallroad would be £63,940,000, Call and we have nearly 16 per cent. met earnings for the past year. Nownsa ‘matter of fact the sul to the C.

Where does this enormous sum of ten milliohs net eatnings come from? It joomes directly out of the pockets. of the patrone of the roads, and thess pa- trous are for the most part the farm- ers of Jowa, Nebrasks, Kansas and Missouri. When these farmers aro taxed ten millions & yéar for the bon- efit of this grest corportion,, they atuzally ask themselves whether the declarationy of such men as Mr. Touzalin'‘ade ' before legislatures, asderting that it ‘would ‘be ruinous to tho ‘railroads to reduce their tolls, are based ! pon ‘fack.' | | Nobody ‘wante to ruin the railroads because the probperify of the covatry is more or less bound up in thelr prosperity, but it 1s Both just and rossonable st fhe patrons of corporations chartéred and sbsidizod by ‘our national and state legislatares should insist that theso_corporate monopolies {shall be content with aix, eight or ten per cent et _jncome on their investment, especially when the wiillionaires who own theee roads turn around and ln- vest their strplus wealth, ground out of the people, in government bonds at three and a half per cent.

The Tehuan- tepec crossing is 2,334 miles nearer American ports on the Pacificand At- laatic or gulf coast than the Panama crossing—a consideration of over- - whelming welght from an Awmerican point of view. The Panama route would never ve eubject to oar control or protection; its exposed - situation wonld place it, in time of war, at the mercy of those nations having power- ful naviee—an element of power in which we are deficient. But the Te- hauntepec railway would be an infe- rior work; its eastern terminus would be on the Costzacoalcos river, thirty miles' from the gulf, and its wsetern terminus would be -on the jsttied channel of the lagoon on the Pacific side, fourteen miles from the coast, thus rendering it susceptible of easy defence by torpedoes. or vessels of war. The writer refers to a four rail rail. way near Washington Oity on which loadod -canal boats, weighing 300 tons, ate lifted and transported for several hundred feet from the Potomae river to & canal thirty feet above it, without difficalty—the very principle snvolved in the proposed Tehauntepec ship railway; he explains that the elastic nature of wood and the bracing of well-built ships by the timbers that hold their sides together woul2 pre- vent all'danger of sagging or bursting of the sides In transit; that there would be no tortion from turning ocurves, as the road would ran iu ctraight lines, each change in direction being effected by powerful tun tables, long enough to carry the ship and tar; that the maximum grades would be’ only ' one foot in = hundred; that there would be no straining of & ship in transite, as there would be ‘twelve ‘rails ' and fifteen hondred wheels, and it “would be easy to tribute and cqualizethe weight of the woéesel on the railt,’ wheels and the earth 50 s to avold all danger of giv- ‘ing away.

Troy (Rafisas) Chie. The prohfbition smendment, and the law passed to enforce it, have traly proved fo be boomerang, and the ones who were foremost in pulilng through the amendment are now the Toudest in squealing at its enforco- ment. v. Dr. Beniley, of the Epiecopal_church, Lawrence, long & rogent of the Stats university, spoke a8 follows from his pulpit on a recent. Sunda; - “Most of this ‘congregation are doubtless aware of the fact that a tomperance law has been passed in this state, But few of you, I think, know that it absolutely forbids the uze of wine in the sacrament, with two years’ imprisoument in the pen- itentiary, and shufting np the church in which the act._was done as s public nuisance, I noed not eay to you that 1 shall go right on with our service in spito of this law. The bishop and ergy of our church have decided to pay . no atfention _whatever to any sach law. We are, under our ' ordination vows, abliged to administor the eacrament in accordance with the law and usage of this church. * If we did not do so we would be_stripped of our ministry. We are willing to render ‘unto Ciesar the things which are Ciesar's, but we still give to God the things that' are His. I say2s did Peter, “Judge ye whether we should obey men rather than God." Of one thing you may be assured, we shall never recognize for & moment the attempts of humai legislation to destroy the great sacra- ment of the Christian charch.” A minister at Topeka haa expressed a similar determination not o respect the law. It is characteristic of the orthodoxfcharches, They will come down rough-shod upon anything that doesn’t just snit their views,andinvoke the law to assist them in enforcing their notions; but when the same law pinoches them, and - interferes with some of their mummeries, that alters the caze, aud the law is infamoue. The churches shouldered that amend- ment as a thing of their own. and . They imagine t it was to Interfero with other people's business, not- their own. Now that they find they ‘are the first ones hit, a howl goes up from the pul. pit, and they declaro their inten. tion to violato the law. They placs their obligations to thetr church bigh. er than to the civil law; and rather than forego the useless mummeries and flummerles of the church, they will vlolate the law that they weré the chief instruments in forcing upon the statate books.® There are cases of sickness in which spiritaous liquors are absolutely necessary, and that without' tho loss of time in gong through tlio: forms required by la It .wis all wellenough with . these preachers, no matter at what “risk of buman life—what eared they for suf- fering or death! But when the sicred tomfooleries ot the church- were en- croached upon the thing becams just infamous'and unbesrable. So:ne mivisters cannot discharge their duties and obligations without the use of genuine fermented wine, This 15 the blood of Christ, aud there can beno substitutes. - Other preadh- erd say they willuse the f.esh joico of the grape, when they can get it, and when they cav not, they will take the sweetened water, or-a ‘decoction of sins, of some other innocent stuff, That also ia the blood of Christ.

The Catholio priest does ot admini ter'the wine to his menibers; ho pre- sonts them with consecrated ‘wafers, but drinks the wine Himself. - He gives w0 wine to others, and there is nothing ia the law to proibit him from drinking ¢, wive from &nother state, and go right shead with the sacrament tho same as befor: —_— This is from Louise Hilgen, Cedar- burg; Wisl, isnoted in a Milwaukee excharige: About two years ago I began saffering with a pain In the knees, and in & short time was lamed St. Jacobs Oil and T the trial of the first bottle, and am now perfeotly well again.
