Biin SrriNaer still declares that he has no disposition to serve on the com- mitteo “‘on expenditures of the depart: ment of justice,” This is sad, but we presume Gleorge Bliss and the other star route attorney will excuse Mr. Springer. St. Pavr is putting on airs because her jobbers are importing teas and trinkets from China and Jagan direct. Omaha began direct importaticns trom Japan years ago when Yost was postmaster and we have not considered it worth bragging about.

It) yields: gas, salt, mud / and pretty much everything except water. 1t, however, yields food and drink to the barnacles who are employed to do the boring. They will continue to bore through to China. TriparTITE alliances are all the rage. It is announced by cable, since the new alliance was formed in Omaha by the railroad kings, that the crowned heads of Europe have become similarly affected. A three-cornered alliance has been formed between ltaly, Germany and Austria, which was one of the objects of the recent visit of the crown prince te Rome. Ir id -nnoune;d that the_ ;hndnrd 0il company is negotiating for the Old Brooklyn Navy-yard. This indicates that the Standard people have designs on the government. Next they will want our valuable navy.—[New York World. Now we understand why the Associ- ated Press has so much to say about our rotten navy. It is a bear movement of the Standard Oil monopoly to buy up the Txv free and full discussion of the causes of desertion by men who are in the army and by ex-soldiers cannot fail to have a good effect. If army officers are not fully posted on all the causes of desertion they will now have an oppor- tunity to inform themselves and remedy the abuses. A private in the regular army may not feel at liberty to present his grievances to an officer, but when the chance is afforded him through the press, without exposing him to annoyance and persecution, he will speak his mind freely. —_—_— Five years ago any journalist or pub- lic man who dared to assert that monopo lies were the greatest menance to Ameri- «an institutions was promptly put down o8 o crank or a domagogue. Now the gountry is full of oranks. Last week Judge Ingersoll, not Bob, in pleading the claims of a citizen of Ohio against the Standard Oil monopoly said, among other things: “*This is the case of a little individual standing up for his rights, More than one hundred years ago, a little band of ple stood out boldly and declared that my should not be taxed unleas they had & voice in the government which made the levy. The result was a great revolu- tion, and the birth of these United States. A r mnegro of St Louis stood up ly fou his rights, The case was brought into court, and the country 'was shaken by a contest that ended in the liberating of the slaves, the expend. ing of vast sums of money, and the loss of s of loyal lives.

W YEAR. The advent of the new year opens up a vast field of speculation. We are in the midst of an era of commercial inac tivity and industrial depression which usually fcllows a period of unusual pros- perity. In the midst of peace and plenty there are thousands in the industrial conters who are without employment, and without means of subsistence. The west alone, with its marvellous produc- tiveness, has withstood the eflects of de- pression, The fortile prairies of Tllinuis, Towa, Kansas and Nebraska still afford ample means to feed, clothe and house every man and woman willing to work. Compared with the states on the Atlantic seaboard this section of the country has certainly been blessed with prosperity. And so ofar as we can look ahead, the future promises to bring greater prosperity to the west than ever. Immigration is still pouring in, and our villages, towns and cities still continue to grow and improve. The presidential campaign may still fur- ther depress trade in the east, but we are not likely to feel its effect west of the Mississippi. Our grain and cattle will find a ready market, no matter what the outcome of the presidential contest may be. Omaha especially starts out on the new year fwith brighter prospects than she ever had before. During the year she has hada wonderful growth, but the coming year will eclipse anything that has ever been known. Contracts are al- ready made for public improvements in- volving an outlay of half a million dol- lars, to be bogun early in the spring, and it is safe to predict that more than double that sum will be expended next season in grading, paving, sewerage and other improvements. More solid build- ings will be erected this year than dur- ing any three years previous. Fully a million dollars will be expended during the coming spring in the establishment of stock-yards and packing-houses. And Tur Bek, as usual, proposes to keep step with the music of progress. It does not intend to rest upon the repu- tation achieved as the most widely read and most influential newspaper in the Missouri valley. While proud of its position iv is conscious that it must con- tinue, in the future as it has in the past, to spare no effort to give to its patrons as good a newspaper as can be produced with the means and talent at its com- mand. A NATIONAL BANKRUPT LAW. Since the repeal of the old national bankrupt law, which was enacted at the outbreak of the war and served its pur- pose in i‘s day, a general desire has arisen in commercial circles for a new law that would meet the wants of the present day. Time. Such a bill hasbeen framed by Judge Lowell, of the United States New Eng- land circuit, and is now before both houses of congress. Judge Lowell is perhaps as competent to deal with the question as any man in America. He was district judge in Boston during the entire time that the last national bank- rupt law was in operation. He hasa familiar knowledge of its merits and de- focts, and hia draft of a new bankrupt law aims to retain what was good in the old law and to correct its defects. The bill now pending in congress em- braces 106 sections, covering, with the index, seventy-six printed pages. It is the work of much study, long experience and freqlient revision, Since its first in- troduction in the last senate by Senator Hoar it has been materially modified in soveral of the most objectionable partic- ulars and will probably now receive a sanction of the majority in congress. The bill defines all the words and phrases used in bankruptcy which have been heretofare in dispute, or which in the na- ture of things require to be limited by a apecific definition. The courts are given jurisdiction and powers substantially as thoy were under the former bankrupt law, but they are explained with a great deal more care, to prevent litigation. In- stead of registers in bankruptoy, paid by fees, the bill contemplates the appoint- ment in each congressional district of a commissioner in bankruptcy, at a salary of $2,000 a year, and a supervisor in each judicial cirouit, at an annual salary of $3,000, who shall have a general over- sight of the supervisors, assignees and clerks. Any person having provable debts ex- oeeding the amount of $500 may file his petition as voluntary baukrupt under the bill. Three or more creditors, whose debts aggregate not less than $200, or, it his creditors are less than twelve in number, then not less than one-fourth of his creditors, having debts to that amount, may file a potition in involun- tary bankruptey. The property exempt- ed from the operations of the decree is the necessary wearing apparel of the bankrupt, and of his wife and children, his uniform, arms and equipwents, and such other property as is exempted from attachment by the laws of the United States or in the state in which the bank- ruptey proceedings are instituted; and the court may allow the bankrupt, in addition, a sum of money, not exceeding §600, if his circumstances require it. Bankruptey procoedings under the Lowell bill will cost less than under the old law, chiefly by the abolition of fees. The register, whose office was often worth $15,000 a year, will receive but $2,000, irrespective of the amount of business which comos before ham, The United States is reimbursed by the $00 feo charged each bankrupt at the outset, and 1 per cont of the gross amount of money realized from the assets in excess of 500, or one-half of 1 per cent when the debtor makes a composition. There are other charges for printing and afli- avits, but the intent of the bill is to re- Aace a8 far as possible the cost of bLauk rupt proceedings to the bankrupt estate. An important provision of the bill is that the bankrupt must apply for his dis- charge in wot less than two months, nor more than six after the adjudication. This is to meet the old evil of bankrupt proceedings indefinitely The rights of creditors are guarded by requiring at least a three-fourths major- protracted. ity in value to accept a composition. Preferences and conveyances in fraud of croditors can b prevented under the bill, . In Nebraska wo already have a very stringent laws regulating insolvency and assignments, but in many other states there is no protection for creditors against dishonest debtors and fraudulent transfers under the name of assignments. A national law that will afford proper protection to the commercial classes at the least possible expense, is certainly needed, and should be enacted by the present congress. LICENSE FOR REVENUE, At the last city council meeting of Denver an appropriation ordinance was passed disbursing over $700,000. This was at least $250,000 more than would be received during the next fiscal year from taxation and all other sources. The utmost amount that could be raised from all sources was estimated at $450,000. To meet the emergency the mayor recommended the passage of a just and equitable license ordinance, from which a revenue might be obtained. Such an ordinance, which had been under consideration for some time, was accordingly passed. By its provisions licenses are to be imposed as follows. Traveling salosmon. . Fire Insurance companios ifo Tnsurance companios Tolegraph companies. . Tolophono companies. Banks and hanking....... compnnies. ... ... District Mossenger compan- $ 100 per quarter 500 per annum 500 per annum 2,000 per annum 1,000 per annum 1,000 per annum 1,000 per annum 150 per annum 1,000 per annum 100 per annum . 500 per annum 500 per annum 300 per annum 500 per day 50 per day 500 per annum 300 per annum Eloctric Light companies. .. Mercantilo agoncies. . Oil companies. Sircus and Menageries. Sido Shows e Furnishers of steam hoating Restaurants selling liquor. . Street Ruilway companioa.. 25 per car Toams T 5 per annum Whether this license system will be the means of supplying the deficiency re- mains to be seen, but it will help out ma- terially, Of the $722,000 included in the appropriation ordinance it should be borne in mind that $316,000 is a city debt of ten years’ accumulation, and the object, therefore, seems to be to make the licenses oventually pay this debt, which will probably be put into the shape of b per cent ten year bonds. It will be seen that the Denver license ordinance has been carefully prepared, and in most cases the licenses have been imposed upon persons or corporations well able to pay. In fact, the amounts required from fire and life insurance companies, telegraph and telephone cor- porations, banks and banking, gas, oil, sleeping car and street railway compa- nies, and*circuses, are very low. Any of these can well afford to pay the license. The schemeis in every way practical, and could be put in successful opera- tion in Omaha, Perhaps the figures for Omaha should be made a little lower, but that we could obtain a very handsome revenue for the city there is not the least doubt. The mattor is at least worthy of serious consideration by our city council. It is a rather curious thing, however, that the Denver city council perpetually tabled the liquor license ordinance, and the inforence is that the whisky olement predominates in that body. Denver can take a lesson from Nebraska cities in the matter of liquor license. In Omaha at $1,000 per year for saloon licenses, about §00,000 is obtained for the school fund, Itisindeed singular that Denver should have omitted in its license sys- tem the very business, of all others, that should be taxed the heaviest. The only question with our council would be whother some of the institu- tions, that will hereafter be compelled to take out a license in Denver, can be le- gally taxed in that manner under the oonstitution, There is no doubt about the legality of the question of licensing drummers, traveling shows, circuses, pat- ent light dealers, and street railway com, panies, but some of the others are proba- bly exempted under our present statutes, THE HUNTINGTON SCANDAL, The publication of the famous Central Pacific Huntington letters has stirred up astorm of indignation among all honest people from the Pacific to the Atlantic coasts, The outspoken and independent papera—among them the San Francisco Chronicle, which made the exposure of the letters--insist that congress cannot allow the matter to go by without a thorough investigatien of the Credit Mobilier and the wholesale corruption of congressmen by Huntington and his partners. Huntington's manipulations, a8 confessod by himself in his correspond- ence, throw far into the shade the opera- tions of Oakes Ames and his Union Pacific Credit Mobilier. Men who were supposed to be above suspicion have been brought out as prominent figures in this latest wonopoly scandal. Huntington throughout all his letters acknowledges that he has mainly occupied himself in bribery in order te gain his ends. Con- gressmen who succombed to his tempting baits are called gentlemen, and those who were inclined to hold out are brandedas d ~d hogs, With Huntington bribary is & fine art, Those who stood in the way of the Central Pacific were punished with defeat if they came up for oflice, and those who assisted the gigantic monopoly were rewarded with oflice and woney, Huntington and his associates defeated| Bijon Hills, on the line of the Chamberlain, the Texas Pacific, the rival to the Cen tral Pacific, subsidy in land or bonds— thus strength ening his company and weakening hi enemy—Huntington precured an assign ment from the rights and equities to the Southern P cific. Mr. Huntington is now endeavor ing to induce congr Texas Pacific grant forfeited. Mr. Hunt ington, however, will probably find that he has blocked his own game, and he will not bo able to gobbie up the Texa Pacific land grant. The probability i that if congress does its duty, the Texa: Pacific land grant will be annulled an the land restored to the public domain, possessed of Huntington is certainly cheek, that would do hoaor to his satani majesty, to persist in asking for this im- mense subsidy, when he guaranteed that the Southern Pacific was to be buil without any subsidy in lands or bonds, Congress has been branded by him a a venal and corrupt body, and it must now, regardless of party, remove th stigma by exposing and punishing th guilty ones, After offering to build the Southern Pacific through without any Texas Pacific of all its to declare the 1f congress proceeds in this Springfiel Yankton railwa; Sixty honses have been built ing the it thre of the rgo Building association, The manufacturing interests of Sioux Falls are in a robust condition, A machine shop 8| and a door and sash factory are among the promised institutions.
