T B IR 1, Y A. 11, Fith, Manager Daily Ciroulation, P. 0, Box 485 maha Neb, Tu land speculators at the state capi- tal are as quiet as mico. Breax up the dives. They are coss- pools of vice, and resorts for crooks and desperado. Tur democratic party without the Trish vota is like the play of Hamlet with Hamlet left out. Ir is now very definitely announced that Attorney General Powers will not bo a candidate for renomination. This As sad news but Nebraska will survive the calamity. Taey have some muscular political kickers down in Alabama, The inde- pondents madea gallant though almost hopeloss fight in Mobile and Birmingham. This is a healthy condition of affairs. Mr. Boyv's proxy ou the national democratic committee has returned and an ovation to the ‘*‘extinguished leader' ot Boyd's opera house is now in order. Nr. James Oreighton will take pleasure in presiding over the grand demonstra- tion. [ — WE are not at all surprised at the pro- nounced preference of Miss Susan B. Anthony for James G. Blaine. A horrid old bachelor like Grover Cleveland, who prefers a buxum widow to a youthful and handsome maiden like Susan, is not fit to bo president of the United States. Evexy well managed business house has its mionthly balance sheets and its quarterly and semi-annual inventory. The city of Omaha, in its corporate affuirs,has been atloose ends for years, There is meither inventory nor balance sheet from which the corporation managers could obtain euch imformation as a prudent business man would require in the con- duct of his affairs, The city has valid title in real estate which is held by pri- vate land grabbers and railway compa- nies, and there is a lamentable lack of eystem in the management of its chattels and moveable property. City offifials incur debt for building materials, furni- ture and supplies, and there is no check upon reckless expenditure, extravagance and waste. This state of affairs should not be allowed to continue much longer. Bome measure should be devised by the council to enforce economy, order and responsibility, No license to sell liquor should be granted to disorderly houses, This is both the letter and the spirit of the law. Had it been carried out from the start, when the high license law went into ef- fect, every den and dive in Omaha would have closed its doors long ago. Mayor Murphy 1s on the right track in refusing to grant license to an infamous resort, and the community will sustain him. There is no doubt whatever as to his right to reject an application for licenss when he knows the applicant to be dis- reputable and his resort is notoriously a dlsorderly house. There is no ne- cessity whatever of a protest from cltizens against llcensing such dramshops. The supreme court of this state has pa ed upon this question in two or three in- stances and its ruling has always been that the power to issue license is entirely discrectionary with the licensing board. The board was created by law for the protection of communities and law abid. ing people will sustain it in the exercise of its'discretion forthe suppression of dens and dives. Tax flarry overthe Texas cattle fever in western Nebrasks and Kansas, has subsided and there is & feeling of great relief, not only in this state, but in the whole country, that it was a false alarmn. There is really nothing strange about the appearance of disease among such vast h-daole.llhnmmflng on the plains. It would indeed be strange if great herds of cattle mingling together aad exposed to the inclemency of the weather and changes of climate, should always remain healthy, They combat the severest winter storms without shelter and often without food, and suffer the torrid heat of summer with- out & wholesome or even & euflicient supply of water. And when in the perpetual struggle for existence some animal, afflicted with do- sease, mingles closely with the healthy, itis but natural that among the thousauds that come in contact with the deseased animal some of weaklings are in con- dition to take the infection. Just as #00n bowever as the proper precaution is exorced and the desessed animals are either killed ‘or isolated, the danger of THE WIDOW BUILER. General Butler is still laging low and keeping his own counsel. His refusal to oome to the front and throw down the gauntlet to the Sttting Bull, of Buffalo, is csuslog disaf- “Plumed Kaight” and foction among his ardent admirers. Bat Bon Butler is a man of brains and he does not teel disposed to play monkey to pull anybodys chestnuta out of the fire. He is yet in & brown study over the great political conundrum of the campaign, Can General Butler carry any one state on his anti-monopoly or his iabor plat- form! Tho antl-monopoly cry is mainly directed against rallroad extortion usurp- ation of land and the control of legiela. tures. The Iabor question covers high wages, short hours and the general betterment of workingmen, This question is & vary large and a very important one; it con- cerns every man in the country directly or indirectly, But is there any definite party issue in it ! Is it not matter of economic arrangement dependent’on the prosperity of the country, crops, produc. tion, trade, aud very largely indeed on conditions that cannot be regulated by the action of congress or legislature? The working men of this country are all voters; they have a direct influence in shaping the govornment; they are better off in that respect than any others on the face of the globe. Tho American gov- ernment is as nearly as possible a govorn- ment by the people if the penple will only take an interest in their own welfare, voti intelligently for their own good and not suffering themselves to be led aside by political intriguers and designing knaves. The workmen of the United States have the right of combina- tion and can regulate their own action to a very large extent. But the workingmen are not united in support of any party or candidate and probably never will be. Every party the field makes them fair promises and every candidate from Blame to Saint John assures them that he is the workingman’s friend. All the party platforms exhibit the most intense interest in the welfare of the workingman and each promises him hich wages and perpetual prosperity. But the intelligent workingman who does not expect to pull himself to heaven by his bootstraps, knows that no man or party can insure him higher wages by platform r esolutions, and no president can guarantee prosperity, that depends uponso many conditions which are entirely beyond his control. Mr. Butler's nomination as a labor can- didate will affoct the contest to the ex- tent of dividing the interest, but his elootion, if it were possible, can hardly affect the interesta of the workingmen, except as a protest against present polit- ical parties. Like the prohibition can- didate, the labor candidate would be the embodiment of a new idea in politi- cal affairs, if, indeed, it can be called new, seeing that we already have its effect and substance in the well-known national formula, “The good of the many.” But every man with a thimble full of brains must see that Ben Butler has not a ghost of a show to become president in 1885, The aati- monopolists greenbackers and working- men may shout and work for him but they will not carry the electorial vote of a single state. But even if they could carry the states of New York and Das- sachusetts they would accomplish no good either for themselves, the country or the widow Butler. At best they could prevent a choice by the peojle and throw the election into the house, That would simply make Grover Cleveland president and John A. Logan vice prosident. What advantage would that be to Butler and his supporters! It seems to us that the contest might as well be squarely fought out botween the two old partios and let the country decide which to have supremacy in ional affaire. Tue attempt of over-zealous republican papers to counteract the influence that may be exerted by Harper's Weekly and its present editor, George William Cur- tis, by reproducing cartoons and edi- torials that appeared in Harper's illua- trated publications during the war period, isa mere waste of time and space. Thore is hardly a leading newspaper in the country to-day that can look back to a perfectly consistent political career of & quarter of a century, Wise men change, fools néver. Newspapers are conducted by mon and unless men are inspired they wre liable to err. 1f the Harpers of to- dsy are to be lampooned for edi- torials and cartoons they published 1 more than twenty years ago the New York, Chicago and Oincinnati dailies that are quoting from the musty files of 1861 and 1862 would hardly enjoy a reproduc- tion of what they published during the same period or since then during the campaigns of 1872 or 1870, While we do not approve the course of Geoorge Wm, Ourtis as & supporter of the demo- cratio ticket in view of his personal par- ticlpation in the nomination of Blaine and Logan, we cannot approve the coarse and stupid abuse to which he and the paper he edits have been subjeoted, — Joux Keuvy dispatched a shrewd politician to the interior of New York to ascertain the exact state of facts with re. gord to the presidential outlook. His observations are presented to the public through the Now York Atar, and that Ppaper sums up his conclusions in the fol- lowing brief but significant editorial: ““The views of our special correspondent, to be found in his lotter from Saratoge, published this morning, make uncom- monly interesting reading. He has been contagion is everted and the raveges of ; visiting the western and central counties the “‘plague” are confined vlllhnnrovi Biwits, ?!Lhu state in the interest of political information, aud his well-cousidered con- | New York 7times are a most clusion is that the country will be made to endure another four years of republi- can rule, under the leadetship of Blaine, This is no trifling estimate, It is based on oareful atudy of the situation after conversation with the representative men of many localities. And really it seems that something very unexpected must turn up to avert Democratic diss- ter in November.” T thirteen chapters on Union Pacific which we haye reproduced from thq intercsting compilation of facts with which the readers of Tie Ber are for the most part familiar, The stupenduous frauds that comprise the annals of Union Pacific from the day it was controlled by credit mobilier free booters to the reign of the railroad wreckers by whose manipulation the bankrupt Kansas P'acific was consolo- dated with the Union Pacific system, have become as familiar to the people west of the Missouri as household words. Their repetition would havebeen superfluous ex- cept that they fully confirm what has been charged by Tur Ber, and recklessly de- nounced as malicious and false by the subeidized monopoly press, and notably the Omaha Republican. Coming from one of the most iufluential and reliable journals in the American metropol theso chronichles of fraudjand dishonesty will bo accepted as indisputable facts by all candid and disinterested men, Tur 8Bioux City Journal echoes our sontiments with regard to the fast mail service when it indulges in the following comment: The so-called fast mail train runalng from Chicago westwarahas been in oper- ation for several months:. How many people in Jowa and the northwest are conscious of any material advantage therefrom? The initial hurrah is all over and forgotten. The fast train itself is forgotten. 1t will puzzle nine out of ten perions, if they will thoroughly canvass vhe matter, to find a single partioular in which they have been benefited by this no-called fast mail train which runs out of butnottoward Chicago. Even the Chi- cago daily morning papers, for whom the fast train serves the purpose of a special carrier, have ceased their lavish lauda- tion of it. Probably it was too evident that they were the only interest specially benefited. On the other hand, there has heen little attention given by the post office department to the connections of mail routes and to the readjustment of timetables by which the mailsmight be carrted more rapdly. OxAHA is becoming famous as a great center of reform. The following compli- mentfrom one of the leading dailyies of wicked Kansas City will be appreciated : The people of Omaha got rid of their magyor recently because he was in the habit of getting drunk and accepting bribes from gamblers. But they are not yet content. They continue to advance on the path of reform. The chief of police has ordered ‘‘Mother Hubbard” dresses off the street, and all persons wearing them will be arrested. The next thing will be an order prohibiting ladies from using paint and poxder. Mr. Blaine has gone back to work on his book. Volume I was for the of capturing the nomination. ‘olume IT will probably ha for the purpose of catohing the election. Mr, B to have learned a new use for the histori- cal pen.—Chicago News, 1f Blaine is as successful with the sec- ond volume of his history as he was with his first, his venture as a historian will not have been in vain, Caxrer HarRISON, the spread eagle re- form mayor of Chicago with 12,000 sa- loons at his back, has gone to Albany to inject some reform into Cleveland’s let- ter of acceptance.

Prohibiton in Maine, Boston Advertiscr, *‘Maine Additional legislatlon, al- in the supposed direotion of greater stringency, has modified the original act, but the prohibitory principle runs through all these unactments, It is now sought to incorporate the prohibitory idea in the fundamental law of the state. and citizens are to vote on this proposed constitu- tional amendment in Beptember next. After this long period of trial, the opera- tions of the prohibitory law in Portland are 8o unsatisfactory to its friends that a committee of e Law and Or- der league presented sn address the other day to the mayor, declaring that the law is ‘‘very imperfectly en- forced," and asking that the officlals may be *‘constrained by the courts” to do their duty, if nothing else can move them to neo that the law is carried out. Moreover, the leading republican nows- paper of the city asserte that the non- enforcement of ~ th is & ‘‘notorious” “‘publio scandal.” Here, thereforo is cumulative evidenco thav prohibition is u failure in the motropolis of the stato. Yot lna fow weeks the voters will be asked to give the princi- ple a solemn indorsement by amending the constitution to give it room. These frank admissions of the breaking down of the law are neither new nor surprising. 1t has been a subject of ve- falsifiers or deceived. litioal sagacity, comy the side of prohibition, man is there, generally, presumed to be & “rummy,” or a repub. lian backslider. Legislatures, have given as a rale, what was asked in the way of more rigid enactments, though it is mot many yoars ago that, as reported the committee which was engaged in framing an act supplementary to the pro- hibitory law, sat round a table having on it whiskey as well as drafts of a proposed “‘reform” enactment., Aside from a body of conscientions prohibitionists, there has been large force i political prohibitionists, afeaid of the *‘balance of power” men and most vociferous defen ders of the liquor law. Public sentiment in Maino is undoubt- urpose laine seems edly against an unrestrioted sale of liquor but it has not been committed to the p hibitory principle with sufficient zeal and determination to insure an enforcement Party lines have{ with been drawn, the republicans, with po-}mens h p'umg themselves to | loose and beltad, will be exhibited until A license law | the apectators will be uncertain whether of the present law, What 1 true of Portland is true of any considerable town in the state. There slight difficulty in procuring liquor, and occasionally de- vices ot an amusing sort are used for ont- witting officers who appear with search warrants. But it would be safe to con- tract to obtain liquor, in any quantity up to a barrel and at an hour's notice, in p'aces of any importance throughout the state, With reasonable qualifications, it is prudent to lay down the principle that laws above the level of public conviction on given subjecta are really hindrances to the end in view. A stringent license law could be enforced in Maine, because the state practically accepts that decree of restriction; but as the Portland jour nal mentioned says, it is a ‘‘notorious fact” that the law which in theory sub- stantially wipes out the liquor traffic is persistently ~ disobeyed by officers and private citizens alike, As the matter stands, if there were less law, there would probably be less liquor in Maine. Thoe excessive strinzency stands in the way of enforcement. Whe multiplication of statutes simply result in new methods of evading the prohibition. The adop- tion of a constitutional amendment would probably do no more’towards put- ting an end to sales than reading the riot act. The liticians, however, have gone 8o far that they dare not stop. The Significance of It. Irish World. The great mass meeting in New York in which the Irish-Americans of the me- tropolis of America entered their protest against the nomination of Grover Cleve- land, is bound to be productive of far- reaching results, For years the aemo- cratic party has been accustomed to look upon an Irish-American as having no right to vote any but the democratic ticket. Acting on this the dewmocratic party did not think itself under any obli- gation to take Irish-American sentiment into consideration. Over and over again has it placed in nomination for state and local offices men who were known to be anti-Irish in their sentiments, The nomt nation of Charles Francis Adamsfor Gov- ernor of Massachussetts isa case in_point. What the democracy of Massachusetts did in nominating Adams has been done in a more or less insuliing manner in every state in the union. Democratic voters of Irish extraction rolled up democratic majorities. This was what was expected of them. No matter who was the nominee or what was the platform, the Irish-American voter was given to understand that ‘‘he munt;” to use the words of Senator Ker nan, “be found fighting in the front ranks of democracy.” Now, the Irish-American mass-meeting in New York has served notice on the democracy that for the future it will not be safe for it to rely upon this kind of unquestioning allegiance. Tt told the democratic leaders that links of the chains that have so long held Irish- Americans in political bondage have been melted in the white heat of indignation that has been aroused all over the land by a presidential nomination that has |y, been dictated by a contemptible faction of pro-Anglicans, who, though they have never cast a democratic vote, haye forced aments pro and_oun, and _speci- "oF the “Mother Hubbard,” both they are in a court of law or & dressmak- er's eatablishment. = e — Making War on Condore, The Chilian government has declared & war of extermination against the con- nors. It offers a rownrd of &) for every condor killed, The hunting of this bird of prey has, under the circumstances, he- come a profitable business, though it seems doubtful, if one considers the as- tounding powers of the bird, and ita won- derful habite, that the government can or will ever succeed in destroying the species at any price. A southern paper, in speaking of the matter, says: *‘Shoot- ing the condor on the wing is almost out of the uestion, for it sails at an altitude far beyond the reach of the human eye, and roosts on peaks immsasureably above the clouds, It has been seen at altitudes of 20,000 feet. It haunts the whole slope of the Andes—not only Chili, but Peru, Patagonia, and Bolivia. Latterly the birds have so increased so as to form a veritable scourge—nothwithstanding the fact that the female lays but two eggs at a time, and that condor hunting has been a regular and lucrative calling for more than a century.
