The latest candidate for this honor is Mr. Mervine Thompson, a Cleveland pugilist. The fact that he is an Ohio man is greatly in his favor, as its a cold day when an Ohio man gets left, Tar Mortonian democrats in Nebraska are in deep mourning. J. Sterling Mor- ton, chairman of the state democratic committee, has resigned. Having be- ocome convinced that he could not run the democratic party in this state, ho has concluded to let it run itself. Henry Broww, a colored man aged 121 years, died yesterday at Niagara, Ontario, to which place he escaped from ‘Virginia when he was a youth of 55 years, Of course he remembered all about George Washington, He actually saw Washington, and this reminiscence ‘was a great consolation to Mr. Brown in his old age. TrE oleomargarine manufactur- ers have testified before the inves- tigating committee of the New York legislature that oleomargarine butter is perfectly harmless. Well, of course. The guests of Kansas Oity hotels need no longer have any fears about eating oleomargarine. THERE is a tide in the affairs of women, at well as of men, which, taken at the flood leads on to fortune, Miss Fortes- cue, an actress of but little account, ‘who was receiving a u‘-ry of $16a weok, sailed into notoriety on account of her ‘breach of promise suit against Lord Gar- moyle. Sheis now playing to crowdad houses and her salary is $250 a week. 15 TaE latost advices concerning the cat- tle plague in Kansas are to the effect that it is not the foot and mouth disease, but genuino epizootic apthre. The veterinary ployer and employo, or master and ser- vant, form one of the most interesting and important elements of common law. It has always been held that the master is bound to exercise toward his employe or servant due care and diligence in pro- viding a reasonably saie place at which to work; that machinery and appliances must be in good and safo condition; and that provision must be made against ex- posure to danger while in the discharge of duty. There is placed upon the em- ployer a much greater responsibility than 18 generally supposed, but it is by no means too great. The iaw holds him strictly accountable for negligence, the result of which may bo porsonal injury to thoss in his ser- vico. Itis alsoa principle of common law that whenever the master delegates to any officer, servant, agent or employe, ponents of the bill had shouted that he would vote for it if Robinson would only stop talking, tho twister of the British ion's tail sat down. Mr, Robinson’s el- oquent oratory, however, did not carry the bill through, It was defeated by an overwhelming vote. The democrats op- posed the pensioning of Mrs, Meikleham on the ground that it was contrary to the teachings of Jefferson himself to creato a civil pension list and unwarrant- od by the constitution. WANTED—~A FEW FUNERALS. Omaha never will be a great city until there are a few more funerals among her old moss-backs and obstructionists. Thousands upon thousands of people who came here to locate during the past twenty years have been driven away by this class of selfish, short-sighted and the performanceof any duty which real- ly devolves upon the master himself, then the person thus delegated is acting by authority and in the place of the mas- ter, and the master is liable for his acts or his noeligence. Notwithstanding these well established common law principles, which are founded upon justice and right, railroad companies are almost in- variably endeavoring to evale these re- sponsibilities in these matters, The practice has become quite com- mon among the railroads to require a man, upon being employed, to sign a written agreement releasing them from all liability for personal injury from acci- dent caused by the negligence of a fellow employe. Such agreements, however, are not worth the paper they are written on. This has been demonstrated very clearly by the result of several lawsuits based on these very points, A case has just been decided by the supreme court of Kansas which defines very clearly the relation of master to servant, with reference to responsibility for negligence either by the master or his servant, In this case the cemmon law principles have simply been reaffirmed. A foreman or boss car repairer of a railroad company was put in charge ef three subordinate car repairers, whose duty it was to repair cars while standing on the track in the yard of the company in which trains were to be made up at St. Joseph, Mo. The company left everything concerning the work of re- pairing the u.ru, the control of the sub- ordinate employes, and their protection while at work, to such foreman or boss repairer; the foreman directed a car to e set on the track at a particular place for the purposo of being repaired; he then ordered two of his subordinates to go under the car for the purpose of re- pairing it; these employes took with them the tools necessary to make the re- pairs, and while they were engaged in re- pairing the car, other cars pushed this car along upon the track in such a man- ner as to cause the car to break and narrow-gauged property-holders. They have not only stood in the way of pro- gress, by asking exorbitant prices for their unimproved lots, bat have always blocked overy scheme of public improvement. The failure of the proposed Iarnam street grade is due entirely to the lack of public spirit and hoggishness of these ob- structionists, Omaha needs and should have at least one great thoroughfare that is not cut up by railroad tracks, and affords an outlet to the country west by easy grade. The fact that Farnam street is laid out in uniform width the whole length to the city limits, and there connects with a straight road clear to the Elkhorn river, makes that street of all others the great outlet to the west. Farnam street to- day is the principal business street of Omaha, and the establishment of the THE DAILY BEE~OMAHA, TUESDA RESPONSIBILITY OF EMPLOY. ber had already entertained the house |and had convinced him (Sabin) that such The relations existing between em- | for half an hour.

He had again and again, wi both publicly and privately, expressed himself so, and his vote would oceasion no surprise among his friends in Minne- sota, who fully understood his views. It was very disagreeable and embarrassing to find himself opposed to his party asso- cintes, and he had withstood urgont ap- peals from many persons whose wishes he could not but regard, but he was com- pelled from a sense of duty, as woll as justice, to vote as he did. He had been urged not to vote at all, but could not play the coward, and preterred to frankly express his convictions even at the risk of censure. The Speaker's Palpit. ““The speaker’s desk,” writes a C'eve- land Leader correspondent, ‘‘is a sort of marble pulpit, behind which Mr. Carlisle sits in a great arm-chair and holds in his right hand the ebony handle of an ivory- headed gavel. This, ina case of dis- order, which very often occurs, he brings down with a thundering rap upon the board top of the marble pulpit. It sounds, when used with vigor, like the shot of a pistol, and is the term of long- winded speakers. Mr. Carlisle uses the gavel lightly, but little Sam Cox, when he gets in the chair, brings it down with all his might, and the other day when he was raising it for a mighty stroke the AR fact that it Was 2 o'clock wher, Judgs Broady arrived in thi~ city.

Une of these isa beautiful one, which he got during his last torm as speaker. It was made by a Georgia mechanic, of 110 pieces of hick- ory wood.” o ——— STATE JOTTINGS. GRAND ISLAND, The, right of way agonts of tho B, & M. have finished paying for right of way up to the city limits, Farmers obtained their own prices, A “masher” from Bitter Crook was badly takon in horo lnst week. A decoy young man proposed grade would have transformed every lot east of Twenty-second street into business property within five years. It would have made an easy and splendid | ¢, roadway beyond the new court house and enhanced the value of all the property the ontire length of the street from fifty to five hundred per cent. No sooner had the project been placed before the coun- cil than the very men who were largely benefitted by the proposed change began to set up a howl about their terrible dam- ages, As a oonsequence several sets of timid appraisers refused to serve after they were appointed for fear that they would displease some Omahog. " Finally, a set of appraisers did qualify and went to work in earnest. One of these, however, Mr. B. E. B. Kennedy, unfortunately belongs to the old moss- back fraternity, Although the law, un- der which the appraisers were acting, ex- pressly provides that they should take into consideration the benefits as well as the damages. Mr. Kennedy set him- self up as the supreme court and over- ruled the law. He figured out several thousand dollars damages cn a piece of unimprovad land belonging to his surgeons who have carafully investigated | 31810 the arm of ono of the subordinate | b,y or.in.law, noar the city limits, which the disease say that it can be easily con- employes. The injured man had noth. trolled by the destruotion of the infected ing to do with the movement of the cars animals and disinfection of the premises, ‘Whatever the disease may be it is cor- tainly bad enough,and prompt measures to check its spread should be taken when- ever it appears, Tre coming city election as usual prom ises to be a carnival for the bummers and | otherwise, was given him of the approach | =0 14 11206 boen over £80,000, whereas hoodlums, The republican primaries, with two exceptions, are to be held in saloons, and the polling places on elec- | save himself, by the exercise of reasona- the benefits are deducted. tion day have been located in saloons in all but two wards, The law prohibits the sale of liquor on election day, but the authorities not only tolerate the open violation of law but invite violence, drunken brawls and corruption, by desig- nating saloons as the po'ling places, DyxamrTe is to be introduced into the soience of war., A dynamile pneumatic gun, made of brass, forty feet long, and weighing about a ton, is being comploted | the representative of the company, t0 800 | +o4q. and instead of having hundreds of pushed against the car under which he was working; he did not know and could not have known, in the situation he was in, that the cars were being pushed against the car under which he was at work until they struck the car, no notice or warning from the foreman, or by signal bell, or of the cars; it was not in his power to provent the collision of the cars, or to ble care, from injury., At the time the foreman was present overseeing the work, and it was his duty to notify the yardmaster having control of the man- agement of the cars, when and where he was going to repair a car; no signal flags were furnished by the company or used by the foreman to designate the car that was being repaired. The court held that it was the duty of the foreman or boss car car repairer, as was almost sure to double in value, if the street was improved according to the new grade. He allowed twenty cents a yard for every yard of dirt to be removed, Pock when, as a matter of fact dirt can be re- moved for half that money, where the demand for filling is greater than the supply. With such figuring Mr. Ken- nedy's bill of damages on the street in fact $10,000 ought to be a liberal com- pensation for the real damages, when The upshot of the matter is that the appraisers have disagreed, and the whole project has fallen to the ground. Now some of the deg-in-the-manger sharks, who were vlamoring for extravagant dam- ages, are beginning to realize that they have cut their own throats. They de- serve no sympathy. The city will have asot-back on this account at least for soveral years. Instead of having a well paved street for miles we will have a mud at the Delamater Iron works.

The possibility that the tariff will divide the democratic party raises the question with the 8t, Louis Post-Dispatoh *‘as to whother tariff reform is worth more than democratic success.” But the previous uestion is this: If tariff reform is to be lodged, and civil service reform opposed, and an honest and stable currenoy ignored by the democratic party, what would succeed with democratic success? There is & well-worn adage that *‘nothing suc. ceeds like success;"” but in polities, not less than 1n business or in the work of life, all that succeeds is not success. If devotion to lower taxes, to a better sys. tem of public service and to honest money do not give a definition of demo- cracy, what does it mean and what is it here for? We pause for a reply.
