Address P. O, box 2334, Omaha tax-payers do not have to go THE TRADE SITUATION, The present depression in commeroial circles is due mainly to speculation and over-production. Railway securities have been oxpandad by watering the stock and by fraudulent manipuiations until they havebecomes o inflated that their act- ual value is not more than one-half of the quotations. Investors, becoming aware of this fact, have gradually stopped put ting money into any class of securities subject to the variations of gambling. The result has been that the big holders of such securities have been obliged to come down. The probable shrinkage in railway securities alono during the Jast sixty days has been equal to two billion dollars, Tt is a natural consequence that such an enormous shrinkage in any commodity causes a general depression in values. The overproduction of all classes of man- ufactured articles, more especially of iron, is largely in excess of the demand. The industrial situation has also become somowhat blocked. An unusually large number of operatives have been thrown out of employment in the coal and iron districts of Pennsylvania and in the New England factories. In some instances the manufacturers have made a roadjust- and other elements that desire to rally under Butler's standard. The evident object is to compel the democracy to en dorse that nomination in June or take the risk of defeat. The chances are that they will tako that risk. e THE LABOR QUESTION. The question is mow being raised in the cast whother this country shall have protection against imported labor as well as against imported wares and commodi- ties, Some months ago when a large number of Italians and Rusgian Jews en- tered into active competition in New York, a revolt was raised among the freight handlers and dock hands in that city against this cheap imported labor. For weeks thero were riots nearly overy day in the streets of New York, but finally the excitement subsided, and the Americanized imported labor became enough to demand higher pay than they at first received, Matters were then equalized. And now we learn that simi- lar labor troubles have arisen in the Connellsville coke region of Pennsylva- nia, War has been declared by the min- ers and laboring men of that section against the Hungarians and Slavonians, and the cry has gone forth that *‘they ment of wages. Slight reductions have been made, and the workers continue. In other instances the capitalists have thought best to close the doors of their factories. This is the worat feature of our system, The manufacturing mo. nopolists, who make fortunes in times of prosperity,and when everything is boom- ing, close the doors of their factories when there is no longer any profit in the business. Having pocketed the profits He has | of & prosperous season, they care no sian longer for their operatives. Rather than continue work and give them a chance to bridge over a dull period, even though there is no money in it for the employers, they throw them out until affairs brighten up. When it comes to a question of loss, it is the workingman who has to stand it in nine cases out of ten. As to the general outlook there is no danger of a panic. Our currency is of the most stable character, and is worth one hundred cents on the dollar. There is a general stability so far as real cstate values are concerned. There has been an immense cutting down of debt municipal, state and national. There can be no such panic as ocourred in 1873, For a time it may be close work for busi- ness men and for manufacturers of all classes. A good season, or a good har- vest, or a resumption of work in the factories, will bring everything out in good shape. A war in Europe, which is not unlikely to break outat any time, would immediately revive com- must go.” A manifesto has been issued which charges these people with crowd- ing out the miners and laborers who are ostablished, and good citizens, from employment and homes, It is charged that they are extremely filthy in their habits, and live on what the American people cannot eat. Their habits grow worse the longer they stay, until they can no longer be endured. Their morals are said to be the lowest of any Cauca- race, and their intelligence lower than that Jof the Chinese. Only about five per cont can read and write, and they will not become naturalized cit. izens, but with all the cash they can save they finally return to their own country. ““These people,” says the manifesto, ‘“‘are degrading American labor,are an in- jury to our commerce, and a blot on the commonwealth not to be endured. American labor as well as American manufactures must be protected.” Here we have substantially the same complaint against white immigrants from southern Europe thathas been made by Denis Kear- ney and his followers against the Chinese ou the Pacific coast. And this brings us to the question, where is the line to be drawn? If any one class of peo- ple who come to this conntry to better their condition can underbid the labor of another class by reason of being more frugal, in food and dress, or by being ob- stenrious and able to save by living in wretched squalor, and subsisting upon what others would throw to the dogs, are they to be driven back? Can we estab- the expense of paying for such adver- | morce in this country to a wonderful de- | lish by any law or by any system of police tisements. There is at least one paper in Omaha in which a tax-payer may ex- press his views on public affaiia free of charge. Kexrucky judges donot hold enviable positions so long as Tom Buford is at lib- erty. It will be remembered that he killed Judge Elliott a fow years ago on account of an adverse decision in a law suit. He was sent to an insane asylum, from which he éscaped, and it is now re- ported that he is out gunning for Judge Pryor, We advise the judges of Ken- tucky to increase their life insurance. Dowx in Yazoo the compliments of the season were passed between a number of colored men and white gentlemen on Christmas. It is the first time in the history of Mississippi that the colored man’s revolver went off before the white man's shot gun. The city council of Yazoo was called as a coroner’s jury, and they came to the conclusion ‘that this lit- tle quarrel, in which several gentlemen were killed, was due to a mere difference of opinion. 1IN his lecture on America Oscar Wilde states that the national game of this country is euchre. This shows that Oscar did not learn very much about America after all. He has done the United States an injustice in giving euchre the pre-eminence over poker. Oscar for- gets to montion anything about the bunko game, to which he was introduced in New Yerk by Hungry Joe. It is very likely that he was a loser at poker, as he was at bunko, and hence he intentionally omits mention of those games. EE——— BuALL it be peace or war? That is the question which agitates railroad men in gree. By retrenchment and economy the commercial interests of our country have been shaped so as to avert a general tinancial crash, Quite a number of the heaviest bnsinoss features in the large eastern cities have been due not so much to the depression of trade as to themania for spoculation. ~ As a rule business men who have attended to their legitimate dealings, and not meddled with outside ventures, are safe. And these men are not by any means despondent of the future. The west has no reason to grum‘yle The causes of the temporary eastern de- pression do not materially affect the busi- ness conters of the west. Here we are more dependent upon agriculture and live stock. Our farmers, as a class, are better off now than they have been for years. This, of course, infuses confi- dence among trades people. It is also a noticeable fact that there are compara- tively few heavy business failures in the west. This is very likely due in a great measure to the fact that our far-westera merchants are remote from the great speculative centers of the east and have had little or no opportunity and but slight inclination, if any, to dabble in risky stocks, Waink Iowa has drawn no eapital prizes in Carlisle’s Christmas distribution she cannot complain of being entirely left out, Mr. Kasson has been assigned to the committee of ways and means; Mr. Cook on elections and expenditures; Mr. MecCoid on judiciary; Mr. Henderson on banking and currency and expenditures in the state department; Mr. Pusey on coinage, weights and measures, and pub- lic buildings and grounds; Mr, Wilson on pgriculture and Pacific railroads; Mr. Weller on agriculture and war claims; this part of the country, as well as the Mr. Struble is on territories and pensions; business men. That the Towa pool is near its end, everybody concedes, The only problem now iswhether the tripartite pool will take the place of the lowa pool, or whether we shall have two pools, and Mr. Hopburn on patents, and Mr, Holmes on invalid pensions and enrolled bills; Judge Murphy on railways and canals and rivors and harbors, This assignment is not only very gratifying to Judge Mur- B WAk Ol Fabas.

This is not now a problem as to the Chinese alone, but with nearly all foreigners. There are Irishmeu who come to this country willing to live upon food that the American laborer rejects and willing to live in houses in which Americans would not stable their cattle. here are Germans, Scandinavians, Bohemians, Polanders, and people of all racos and all climes crowding into our labor market, against whom the same complaint might be made. Tt is not the question of morals, nor of education, nor of naturalization, that is at the bottom of the outery against cheap imported labor. Dennis Kearney and his followers would not insist that the Chinese must go on ac- count of their ignorance or their low morals, or their refusal to vote at elec- tions, if it were not for the fact that - the Chinaman enters the labor market at a greater advantage over the white man, because he can subsist on less costly food, dress in cheaper clothing, and work more hours than the white man for the same money. 1t is the conflict between cheap and high labor, and not between high and low morals, or between education and ignorance. To protect American labor and to keep up high wages it is no longer sufficient to exclude foreign man- ufactures by a high protective tariff, be- cause a high protective tariff begets man- ufacturing monopolies and over- produetion, which in turn forces a suspension of manufacturing and keeps thousands of workmen unemployed dur- ing certain seasons, High wages for six months and no work for the balance of: the year is worse than steady employ- ment atb low wages all the year round. To maintain wages at uniformly fair rates there should be ns obstruction to com- meree hy extravagant tariffs, At present our factories are over-stimulated, and when they produce more than they sell in America, they must close their doors until their products are consumed. Meantime the unemployed laborer, the farmer and other consumers, are paying two prices for everything they wear and for the materials out of which their houses are built., How uNaRATE all these woman suffragists are! Hore is Senator Lap- ham, of New York, who champions. their cause and goes on the record in favor of the sixtoenth amendment, but the lead- | g evs of the woman suffrage movement are not at all pleased with him. They actu- ally say that Lapham has become chair- man of the woman suffrage committee in the senate for selfish ends, 'They say he had the committee created in order to give his son a place as a clerk at six dol- lars & day. Now we understand Mr, Lapham. He ovidently has an eye to business when he shouts for woman suf- frage, — I'uk thing that most n&ihm the people where they have adopted township organ. ization will require the election of new county officors.

The best way Bill Springer can resent that insult is to resign. A HEARD FROM- From The New York Times, Senator Van Wyck has embarked upon his promised investigation of abuses con- nected with the railroad land grants. The senate adopted yesterday his resolution calling upon the secretary of the interior for information in relation to indemnity grants which might have been or were included in the original grants. Mr. In- galls, who is the recognized defender of the railroads and of the interior depart- ment against assaults of this kind, ob- fictud to the language of the preamble to r. Van Wyck’s resolution, but his dis- satisfaction was removed by transforming some of its assertions into mere allega- tions. There is a very general de- mand for some more precise and com- plete knowledge than the public now has of the history of the land grant opera- tions of the interior department, and while it may be true that Mr. Van Wyck is over-suspicious, it is oqually clear that Mr. Ingalls rather prejudices his side of the case by his marked readi- ness to meet and deny any and all allega- tions of irregular or improper methods in that department. From the New York Star. Senator Van Wyck, of Nebraska, wants to know how much it costs the government to tail in making out its case againat the star-route conspirators. Sena- tor Van Wyck has a perfect right to know this. And so has everybody else. T%he Current is the title of a new weekly sixteen-page publication in Chi- cago by Bdgar L.

There is some apprehonsion that Ben Buttler may make trouble next year in the presidential fight. That he will be in the field there seems to be no doubt, and if the outgivings here are not mis- leading he intends to knock at the door of the democratic convention with a labor party nomination in his hands and threaten to be a third entry if he is not taken up by the democrats. In a recent interview here he gave an intimation oft such intention. Thero is to be a.big din- ner in Boston early next month which is to be given a turn in the line of Butler's ambition, but if the programme indicated is prefigured, the boom to be started is ikely to prove a dismal failure, for while there are some democratic influence ready to' urge Butler if he remains inside the democratic _lines, they are equally ready to out adrift from him if he begins any political trickery. Butler claims that he has more points of strength than.any. other candidate, that whatever he will loose in the white vote of the soutlfy. he will more than make up 1n the vote of the negroes who have a traditionary. regard for him:as their best friend; that he con- trols more Irish votes than any other public man; that he represents-the anti- monopoly, anti-English, anti-aristocratic sentiment in the country, and that he is enough of a manufaoturer to give confi- dence to the business classes, Moreover, he has the support of the remnants of the old greenoack organization, which though now disrupted retains all of its old: an-- tipathies and prejndices. These form politioal reasons, itis claimed, why, in the light of expediency,. he should re- ceive tho nomsnation. 1t is safo tosay that Butler will not get the nomination, andiif he does not, the expense of run- ning as an independent candidate affords the strongest reason why he will not so run.
