Dr. E. N. Potter, as we learn from a trustworthy source, has ac- cepted his election to the Bishopric of Nebraska. This sudden translation of the newly elected president of Hobert col- lege plunges that seat of learning again into a perplexity from which it seemed to have found a satisfactory escape. The Diocese of Nebraska ig, however, to be congratulated with little or no reserve. In the unfortunate disputes with refer- ence to Dr, Potter's administration as president of union it was not and could mot be denied that he had rendered the «college very substantial service in excit- ing interest and raising money in its be- half. The qualities demanded for work of this kind are those cuiefly required of a bishop of the Protestant KEpiscopal church in a new state like Nebraska, which is for most purposes a Bishopric dn partibus. It is not to be doubted that the new Bishop P'otter, who will be the fourth of his name and kindred in the American Episcopate, and the third of those now living and excreising epis- copal functions, will give his diocese an energetic and successful administration, The only serious element which threatens is the possible restriction of banking accommodation throughout the country, as the result of the financial disturbance at the monetary centres, This accommodation merchonts have been accustomed to rely upon, and as capital is largely locked up in assets not at once realizable, a restriction of credit is & serious matter, If, in Wall street, wvalues continue very low and confidence only slowly returns, this stringency in money may result in serious embarass. ment. But, with the expectation of a bet- ter condition of things, the hopeisa reasonable one, that the ordinary busi- ness facilities which the commercial community have a right to expect, will be afforded to them, The restriction which has thus far taken place in loans has been enormous, but it has been re- sponded to in a manner that is astonish- ing in view of its suddenness. 1t speaks well for the general soundness of trade, that a change so violent has been brought about with casualities so fow, “This consideration ought largely to in- #fluence the growth of returning confidence which recent events have done so much to retard, Beyond the distrust which prevails, it is difficult to designate what element of prusperity is needed in the prospects of the country. Low prices are by no means an unmixed evil. Specu- lation has had @ severe check, and greater chances exist now for making money legitimately than almost ever be- \ N G858 5.5 g THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK. In spite of, gloomy forebodings and commercial stagnation the most acute observers and best informed financiors of this country take a hopefal view of the business The decided increase of failures in the United States and Canada for the quarter ending with July 1st was by no mesns unex- pected. - The depression in trade and in- dustry has been well nigh universal for nearly two years and the terrible shrink- ago of speculative securitics very natur- ally contributed to the extraordinary liquidation, But after all, the disturb- ance was in the main of a local character, chiefly confined to Wall street stock job bers. The disasters to legitimate com- mercial enterprises have been surpris- outlook. ingly few. This opinion is fully confirmed by the report of Messrs. R. G. Dun & Co.'s Morcantile Agency covering the firat six months of 1884, According to this report there was in that period an increase of 873 failures as compared with the first six months of 1883, or about 18 per cent. The total number was 5,010, The increase in the amount of liabilities was from $66,000,- 000 to $124,000,000, or 88 per cent. Of this increase of liabilities, however, §48,- 000,000, or 83 per cent. are chargeable to the city of New York, and only $18,- 000,000 to the remainder of the country. In other words, the increase of liabilities in the first half of 1884 over the first half of 1883, outside of the city of New York, has been from £55,000,000 to £67,000,- 000, or only about 22 per cent. instead of 88 per cent., whichis shown with New York included. It must be remem- bered, also, that this is but a rough com- parison, Only the amount of liabilities is given, or can be given. The result might be quite different could we know the net assets of the insolvents, or the terms on which liquidation has been or is to be effected. There 1s little reason to doubt that with this more complete com- parison, the extent to which the very great increase of liabilities shown in the reports has been csused by the recent troubles in Wall street would appear more marked than it now does. Itis true that prominent financiers, great promoters, and mer in high posi- ‘tions have been forced to ruccumb ; it is equally truo that the shrinkago in tho wealth of many rich men has been very great. Butit is a fact that, to a great oxtent, the disasters of the year have been confined to the wealthy class, and with but little interferenco with legiti- mate traders in moderate circumstances, The panic which we have passed through has been well described as * the rich man's panic.” It is a matter of signifi- cant moment that, considering all the violent fluctuations that have occurred, the enormous shrinkage in values, and the severe restrictions which monetary institutions have found it necessary to enforce, that failures have not been more numerous. So that, instead of being de- pressed by the figures, thereis yet comfort to be found in the fact that the rank and file of legitimate business men have with- stood a #hock go severe. They have not only been able to respond to their obliga- tions promptly, but are in a shape to take advantage of a revival of trade, which must certainly soon follow. Re- calling the depression which has existed for nearly two years, it would seom that a conditionof preparedness had been reached by the mercantile community for the events which in the last six months have occurred. If there had not been a gradual restriction in the volume of trade, a slow but steady decline in the values of almost every asset, and an un- defined yet existing apprehension as to the future, the events of the last fow months would assuredly have brought about troubles almost unparalleled, This view of tho case is best illustrated by a comparison of the prosent state of things with the condition that existed in 1873, The panic of that year was like a thunderbolt out of & cloar sky, while the panic of 1884 has come as if expected, and hence was more or less pro- vided for. Taking it altogether, the results of the six months will not be considered wholly unfortunate if the lessons which have been taught have their proper effect, and if the legitimate business of the country is not more interfsred with than at pres- ent appeurs, The injurious effect of recent events to commerce will be materially lessened by the possibilities contained in the promise of the growing crops, and the hopes en- tertained that a year of great production will be vouchsafed to us, There is as much money in the land as there was six months ago. The troubles have been confined to narrow limits, as compared to the wide-spread ratio of success possible to those who pursue the legitimate paths of enterprise so plainly marked as availa- ble in this vast country, No wide-spread desolation has swept over us, and there is moro to be hoped for from a year's progress and natural growth, supple- mented by enormous immigration, and the full use of tramsportation and facili- ties of communication, than is to be fear- ed from anything that has yet ocourred, The trade of the conutry has not been materially interfered with, the internal indebtedness of merchants is not exces- sive; and the ability to absorb and pay for goods, the basis of all legitimate trade, was never greater than now. The apprehension which has existed has caused stocks of goods, in the hands of retailers, to be brought down to a narrow limit. The low prices which prevail for all classes of staples, the cheap living which the poor ought to be able to com- mand, both in the way of food and cloth- ing, ought soon to bring about a revival of business, and a larger demand for the products of every kind. uvirimurm, and that expenees of business OMAHA DAILY BEE-~TUESDAY JULY 8, 1884. and llving ought to be adjusted to sccord with this decline, This procoss has al- ready made some progress, and while competition is severe, and values decrens- od, there is still likely to be a fairly prof- itablo demand for merchandise and man ufacture, with greater ability than ever to supply the demand, and some certain- ty of safoty in transactions based upon legitimate needs. Under such circum- stances it seems possible that the halance of the year will have within its results more satisfactory than the [first six months have brought. NorwrtnstaNpiNG the fact that the California delegation is emphatically pro- nounced against Judge Field, a deloga- tion of outside skirmishers from Cali- fornia, composed principally of his mon- opoly friends, are endeavoring to have his name presented to the democratic national convention. Among these skir- mishers is John P, Irish, who is a carpet- bagger from lowa. Judge Field's sup- porters, although having no voice in the convention, have passed resolutions to the effect that the recent ‘‘affront” offered to him by the California democratic state convention was not an expression of the democratic party of that state. These resolutions will go for nothing, as no man was ever set down upon more severely and unaniwously than was Judge Field in the California state convention. His monopoly tendencies were too well- known to be overlooked by the monopoly- ridden people of California. Tur Springfield Republican says that college degrees are getting tbo cheap to be valuedvery highly, as the honors of our colleges are allotted by boards of trustees, made up of the butcher, the baker and the candlestick-maker, and such bodies of course make up the high- est kind of an academic court. Then, too, the power to grant degrees exercises a powerful fascination for the men in- trusted with it, and they sometimes re- sent suggestions to the effect that econo- my in the distribution is desirable from every point of view. This i a big coun- try, its colleges are many and struggling and the temptation to advance the mate- rial interests of institutions through the more or less open barter of degrees is not always resistod. All these causes and many more combine to make honors in- deed easy, and reform in this matter comes very slowly. BRAVE KATE SHELLY. The Medal Voted by the TowaZLegisla- ture Presented to Her before D00 People. Booxse, lTowa, July 4.—The medal voted to Kate Shelley, lowa’s Grace Dar- ling, was presented to her at the Ogden this afternoon in the presence or about 3,000 people. Gov. Sherman was to make the presentation speech, but was unable to be present, and it was made by Mr. Walker Given, his private secre- tary, Afterremarks by the Hon, J. A, T, "Hull, secretary of state, who intro- duced Kate Shelley and gave a short sketch of her heroic deed the night of 6, 1881, Mr. Given made the presenta- tion speech as follows : The governor is unavoidably detained elsewhere and I am directed to act as his agent in presenting to Miss Kate Shelley the medal of honor awarded by the gener- al assembly. Already the story of hero- ism pictured on this medal has been told in many lands and in many tongues. Safe in her home that wild July night, yet with anxious fear for others, Kate Shel- ley heard the cracking of the pilot-engine through the trestlework near and knew at once the double need of help for the men in the wreck and warning to the coming express. Forth she went into the night and the storm, making Ler way amid sheets of fire and bursts of horrid thunder and roaring wind and rain, across tho valley and on over tho high, long bridge, with no footing but the skelston timbers, no light but the flashing of the clouds, the tempest above and the flood beneath, struggling on her perilous way to call help and signal the overdue ox- press. A danger bravely met, and tho laurel-wreath was gainod for an humble home. The legend of Kate Shelley s rogistered with the deeds of Ida Lewis and Grace Darling, and proves her equal to the heroines of history, brave as the Maid f Saragossa, with a devotion generous aa Florence Nightingale, and a motive to compare even with the Venetian maid, Arnaude de Rocas, Glorious in history is tho courage of these gentle spirits— tho bravery of woman when tho seli- dovotion of her heart is inspired to heroic action. Tiue boyond the mean- ing of the poet is it, that *‘the bravest are the tendorest, the loving are the daring.” This medal, picturing Kate Shelley's deed of herotsm, and stamped with the lowa coat-of-arws and the laurel wreath, is now presentrd as the offering, not of persons or of classes, but of the state s representing all the people. And to Miss Kate Shelley we can only ay: Accopt it and may the best of bless- ings go with it. Kate Shelley returned thanks through her old teacher, Prof. J. D. Curran, of Angus, who replied to the presentation speech in well timed remarks. The med- al is a heavy gold one costing $260, The design on tin face represents Kate ocross- ing the DesMoines iron bridge amid storm and lightning flashes, and above are the words in blue enamel: **Heroism, Youth, Humanity.” On the obverse is the following inscription: *‘Presented by tho state of lowa to Kate Shelley, with the thanks of the Generall Assembly in recognition of the courage and devotion of & child of 156 years, whom neither the terror of the elements nor the fear of death could appalin her efforts to save human life during the terrible storm and flood in the Des Moines valley the night of July G, 1881, C—— Wei do Meyer.

Inangnration of Iowa as a Total Ab- stinence State, How They Set 'Em Up for the Last Time Before the Dawn of the Eventtul Fourth and Prohibition, Dex Moines Leader, July 4, Twenty-nine years ago to-day the first temperance law in Iowa went into effect. It was known as the Maine law. Subse- quently, ““cs a sop to the Dutch,” in the language of a republican representative in the legislature, the law was amended 80 a8 to _permit the manufacture of ale, wine and beer. From that time to the present the question of beverages has been ever present in lowa, and ever troublesome. It has been the bete noir of politics, the red flag shaken out before each election, Two yoears ago an election was held to determine whether the state constitution should absolutely prohibit the sale of anything in thé shape of malt,; vinous of distilled liquors. The prohibition amendment was adopted by a [large majority. Subsequently the the supreme court set aside the amend- ment, and last winter the legislature enacted a prohibitory law, which went into effect last night at 12 o'clock. As this article is neither argument nor prophesy the record of legislation on this topic may close right here, THE HISTORIC DAY, began quietly enough in Des Moines, although there was a good deal of curi- osity manifested on the streets. Knots of men gathered in the hotels, saloons and other places of public resort, discuss- ing the probable result of the movement, but there was no especial excitement. A noticeable fact was that during the day there was less drinking than usual. Up to 6 o'clock in the evening a majority of the saloon keepers reported their sales had been less by the drink than usual. The bottle trade, however, was enor- mous. One Walnut street saloon passed over the counter between noon yester- day and 12 last night, 211 pint bottles of spirits, THE BREWERIES were full of patrons most all day. Long before night every cask had been.filled and shipped to customers out of town. After the four o’clock trains left not a packago couldbe had. It must have been a very thirsty day for our country cousing, Thelbreweries kept on hana only enough of the liquor of GGambrinus to supply their retall demand, and to- day will tind most of them without a gallonin stock. Several, and perhaps all the brewers are preparing to turn their breweries into cider works, although some have applied for county permits under the pharmacy act. THE SALOONS, drove a thriving trade over the bar last evening. It seemed as if the entire city had become suddenly athirst. Among thecustomers were not a few farmers that had come to the city to a sort of watch meeting, to see the law go into eflect. As early as noon some of the larger saloons were out of some favorite brands of the exhilerating fluids, but that made no especial difforence. Tho reporter was in the back room of one of the largest establishments in town, in- terviewing the proprietor on the situa- tion. Said he, in answer to a question as to the amount of stock he would have left. ‘I have sold over #wo barrels since yesterday, a large part of it by the cask and jug,” pointing to a pile in the cor- ner. The reporter began to inspect the la- bels, but the proprietor objected to ‘‘giv- ing away" his patrcny, and the scribe saw only one on a four-gallon cask bearing the address of a prominent attorney in Des Moines, an ardent prohibitionist. “I've only half abarrel or so left,” said the saloon man, “‘prime old rye.” Just then a barkeeper came in with a decanter and said, ‘‘we’re out of brandy.” The vessel was filled with whisky and re- turned to the bar. A gin decanter was filled from the same barrel while the re- porter remained and whisky flasks inum- erable. THE EXPRESS COMPANTES had their hands full. Each car leaving tho city looked like a pottery on wheels. The Keokuk train distributed 68 pack- ages between that city and Ottumwa. The Rock Island west bound train took away 112 packages, varying in size from a modest looking gallon jug, labled “‘gas- oline” to a full sized beer keg honestly marked. The Northwestern, Wabash aad all otnor routes also carried away their quota of tanglefoot, It is by no means a wild estimato to say that one thousand packages of malt and spiritous liquors were carried out of the city yes- terday, The Winterset & Indiancla trains were well loaded. The favorite marks on the jugs for the branch was *‘castor oil,” THE CITY was policed by two hundred specials, half of whom were employed by the state, and Hawkeye insurance companies, which put on one hundred policemen to guard against fire, and the mayor had engaged an equal number of specials. Many of the latter were reported to be drunk be- fore midnight and the town was reason- ably quiet, although there was more drinking during the night than was ever known in Des Moines before during the same number of hours. The saloons closed at 11:30 all over the city and in Sebastopol, —— Be Oareful of the Babies, If your children are threatened with croup or any throat difficulty, apply a few drops of Thomas' Felectric Oil.” It r the nicest medi- cine for the little ones that we know of, on most every hody and everything. Saint and sinner alike came in for their share—widow Butler/and the bachelor's association not excepted, Lew May and Nat Smails say it isa libel upon them for they do know which way the Congregational church is located from Eno's hotel. The sacred cow made up a very interesting part of this proces- sion, though some of the boys say they did not see just whore the cow came in. The Fremont normal and business college, the laying of the corner stone of which constituted one of the most strik- ing features »f the day, is the outgrowth of a determination on the part of our best citizens to have a first class nornal school under local management, and in 10 respect subject to the dictation of state politicans; least of all, the Lincoln ring. It is a fact which needs no further proof, that appropriations to atate insti- tutions of whatever nature must all pay tribute to Lincoln lobbyists. Several years ago F'remont made an effort to get an appropriation for a normal school, but as usual got left. But now sho has passed that crisis, and being of sound mind and body, has determined to put her hands into her own wallet and own and control an institution fashioned and conducted on business principles, It will aim first of all, at supplying the kind of education most in demand—good training for business life, for public school teaching, for industrial, art and other practical purposes—and next at making the expense of such training as little a8 is consistent with wholesome living and thorough teaching. The cere- » mony of laying the corner stone of this institution as conducted by the Odd Fel- lows, in full regailia, was attractive and imposing. The building is three stories in height besides the fourth siory roomin the tower. From the ground to the extreme top of the tower will be about eighty feet. On the ground the building measures 74 feet from east to west, and 60 feet from north to south,and fronts gouth toward Military avenuo. It will contain, when completed from top to bottom, twelve recitation rooms, besides the art studio, and music department, principal's recidence rooms and office. All arrangements for the boarding of students will be in other buildings. The walls of the main build- ing are now half finished, the corner stone having been laid on the top of the basement wall at one corner of the east extension which had been left for this purpose. The contractor is determined to push the work to completion in time for the opening of the fall term, October 21st. The building, when completed and furnished, will represent about $20,000, and the site, covering over four acres, the gift E. H. Barnard, is worth at least $2,000 more. Other buildings now pro- jooted for the use of professtvs and stu dents, and intended to be finished before the school opens, will cost over £5,000 more. Last evening a red hot meeting was held to organize a Blains and Logan club. E. A, Barnard was chosen president;(; Marshall, 1st vice president; Wm. K 2d vice president; C. Driscoll, 3d vice president, V. S. Hay, 4th vice president; Ross Hammond, recording secretary, and J. W. Lovo, corresponding secretary; C. H. May, C. D. Marr, James Kilburn, Geo. H. Forney and H. W.
