At the same time, according to The Lenver Republican, the Utah extension of the Rio Grande road is to be built at the common expense to on the Central Pacific, thus giving a through route from Chicago to the Pacific coast entirely indepen- dent of Union Pacific road.

Instead of making political capital for the tuture with a view of repealing the high Tlicense law, the nullifiers will unite all the law ubiding people, re- law and order. Ivstead of a modified license law they will get absolute pro- hibition, It strikes us that the second the liquor interest in the council law. I they will reflect ' seriously upon the effect their courso will have upon law abiding people in other seo- tions of the state, where the high license bill has been quietly enforced, they will reach the conclusion that they are only arousing an intense p e- judice against Omaha which would prove vory injurious to our future growth, without doing their cause the least good, - RAILROAD COMPETITION. “The railroad organs are divided at the present time over the que the value of competition as a protection to the interests of the public and the interests of the corporations, The re- cent ruinous war of rates between the trunk lines of the east has drawn from the New York Tribune a labored article, advisiug government protec- tion of railroad managers against the cupidity of ovposing corporations, while a number of monopoly organs the railroad question and assert that ‘“‘competitian can and will pro- tect the whole duminion of commerce.” This last remark is used as a text by the Omaha Republican tor an edito- rial in which it argues against the re- striction of corporation abuses, either by a railway commission or by na- tionul legislation, both of which it is convinced would be equally injurious, as curtailing the power of the monop- olies and preventing a free and fair competition between public carriers, There is no word in the whole railroad vocabulary so misleading as the word ‘‘competition.” In ordinary mercan- tile life it means the free and un- bridled rivalry which exists between business men in the sale and exchange of their commodities. 1t acts as a stimulus to trade and a protection to producers and consumers, restricting avarice and forbidding ovpression. Through competition in business, the farmer is enabled to sell his produce where it will bring the highest price and in refurn to spend his money where he can obtain the largest amount for the least expenditure. Such competition is unknown on rail- roads. By their very constitution the greater proportion of railways are mo- uopolies possessing a franchise whicl tuables them to hold and operate a constitutional in all its provisions by therefore, sustain the authorities in its enforcement lot the consequences The overwhelm- ing majority given to the liquor deal- ers’ ticket last spring has created among this that this tempt to nullify the laws that restrict the liquor tradfic, even when by this nullification they endanger the public schools by withholding the license [ g ¥ public.

In business the result of competition is to lower the prices of commodities to purchas- ers, In railroad management the re- sult of competing lines is to maintain prices for transportation. In busi- ness, a customer may sell his goods to whom he pleases and bargain for a better price among a number of firms who are competing for his trade. The railways, by pooling all earnings, or by secret agreements to maintain schedule rates, make it a matter of Iittle difference to shippers by what line they transport their freight to market, Railroad competition is a delusion. It has no existence except when broken agreements of the managers force on] other linesa warof rates which end in stronger compacts and the practice of greater extortion upon build competing roads under the most solemn promises that actual competi- tion should take place between the rival lines. In every instanco at the end of a few weeks, or at most a few years, the consolidation or pooling of the competing lines have robbed the public of the benefits which they than ninety years after the adoption of national constitution, the occasion has arisen for its werious discussion. In dealing with it we have none of the ordinary lights and aids, for ithas never bean made the subject of legls- lation or congressional debate, or of judicial consideration. Jurists have given 1o special study to it, and our judicial writers have invariably slur red it over with a passing allusion, The shot uf Guiteaun brings it up as absolntely now topie of great sig cance, for study and _discussion, effect of this is scon in the vast var ty and general crudeness of the com ments which it has evoked. Even the most careful student of it is likely to find occasion to revise his first impres- sions. To say that it has no real interest at this time is puerile, and to maintain that it is a matter of minorimportance is foolish, The very language we are compelled to use in in! ng the subject reveals its P impor- tance. The president is at this mo- ment unable to discharge the powers and duties of the executive office, and it is no performance of his official functions to set his name even “‘with a firm, clear hand” to a document brought to him by the secretary of state. So far as consideration of the subject involved or approval of the document is concerned, 1¢ is the act of the secretary, not of the President. Gen. Garfield may be able to resume the duties of his office before there is any urgent prossure for the perform. nncezf specifie exeeutive acts, but thls very statement assumes that heis not now able to perform them and is not performing them. That such 1s the fact is a matter ot common knowl- edge and entirely beyond dispute. Considering the slow progress the president is making, thereis no as- surance whateve that it may not be- come & matier of urient necessity that oxecutive acts of the highest im- ortance should be performed before e is in a condition to give them the requisite attention and to exercise his indispensable functions in connection with them. It is not for the cabinet or any member of it to attend to these duties and to_obtain the perfectory signature or the listless approval of an invalid, when such is regarded as technically ‘“indispensable.” That is not a discharge by the president of the powers and duties of his office. We have hitherto maintained, what we believe cannot be successfully dis- hoped to derive from their contribu- tions, Left to themselyes and to the opera- tion of the law of ‘“‘railroad com- petition” the corporation mana- gers will strain the dividend pay- ing power of their roads to the utmost at the expense of the purses of the public. The regulation of ral- road tariffs by law affords the only quarrantec of protection against the arbitrary exactions and extortions of the monopolies. ThisYis a remedy which lies in the hands of the people and they will be accountable only to themselves if they refuse to exercise it for the common benefit. CouncitMeN who want to nullify the state liquor license law are talk- ing flippantly about the consent of the goverwed. Thay say the Slo- cumb law has been passed without the consent of the governed and therefore the people arc not bound to obey its provisions, This talk about th2 consent of the governed is all bosh. In a government ruled by ma- joritics through representative bodi called legislatures the governed give their consent to all the laws enacted by their representatives when they elect them. This consent cannat be withdrawn at pleasure. No matter how ob- noxious the laws enacted by the peo- ple's representatives, as they bind all citizens alike until they are repealed by another legislature or declared void by the courts. If every law that does not meet popular approval could ba ignored or nullified at pleasure this country would soon relapse into a state of anarchy, ——— ion of . = Vice PRESIDENT ARTHUR is being conched for presidential duty by his most intimate friends. In view of the probabie vacancy in the office of the president, the question has been discussed among the vice presidont’s counsellors as to his method of taking the oath should the president die. Precedents have been looked up and iv was found that in the case of Vice President Tyler there was a lapse of two days after the death of President Harrison before he took the oath, In the case of Vice President Fillmore there was a lapse of one day. 1In the case of Vice President Johnson the oath was administered almost imme- diately after the assassination, It is to be hoped that the emergency which would call the vice prasident to the chief magistrate's post of duty will Mussissierr planters are learning frem experionce that small plantations well cultivated are better than large plantations po rly farmed, In twenty years the number of plantations in the state has nearly doubled.

In such case it nimp\l,y devolves those functions upon the Vice-President, to be by him permanently or temporarily ac- cording as the “‘inability” may render necessary. 5o much seems to us en- tlrely clear, We have also held that it was essential, in order that there might be no uncertainty andno chance for conflict of opimions or of action; for Congress to make the laws - “necessary and proper for cnrr{ing into execution” the powers of the office of vice president efore that officer could assume the functions of the executive. We still deem that a matter of the highest im- portance and the lack of congres- sional action in the past a matter greatly to be deplored. We deem it of 80 much importance that we should deprecate any action of the vice presi- dent in_the premises in advance of legislation®unless it should become ab- solutely necessary or of the most ur- gent importance. But we do believe that it was the intent of the constitu- tion to devolve upon him the powers and duties of the executive office in such circumstances as now exist, and it should become indispensable that executive acts should be performed and the president was unable to per- form them, the vice presidentand no other would be the ofticer upon whom their performance would properly de- volve, The reason why there is so much doubt and hesitation in dealing with this subject is not far to seck. It is one more_result of the lack of uner- ring foresight on the part of the ramers of the constitution. Their substantial failure of their purposo in the electoral system of choosing the rnsnlvut and vice president is well cnown, They never intended that there should be party nominations, and they could not foreseo the con- sidcrations which have generally de termined the nomination of vice pres: idents, It was eutirely aside from any view of the cate taken by them them that thors should be a na- tional “‘administration,” of which the vice president would virtually form no part, and with which he might not be in sympathy. It is the general recog- nition of the fact that Gen. Arthur has not been of or with the Garfield administration that made many people regard the possibility of his succession with dread and makes them reluctant to admit that he is in any case to act in the president's place. But this feeling cannot set aside the provisions of the constitution, If Gen. Gartield lives, his administration will continue, The vice president cannot displace it, and will probably have no desire to do so; but so far as the powers and dutice of the executive oftice are con- cerned, he is the person plainly des- ignated by the constitution as the one upon whom they shall devolve when the president is unable to discharge them, Xowa Croj The following condensations are | made from the August crops prepared | by John R.

With the discouraging outlaok before thrashing commenced, it is still more so in many instances where thrashing has been done, Winter Barley—Only 11 counties report the yield which plsces the aver- age at 11 bushels per acre.

Pasturcs—Ninety-eight counties, répresenting 721 townships, place the average condition at 92 per cent, a decrease of 8 per cent.

A Grapes—Ninety-two counties, rep- resenting 723 townships, place the condition at G® per cent, a decrease m prospective yield of 156 per cent.
