THE BEE PUBLISHING CO,, PROPY' B. ROSEWATE,R Editor, A. 1. Fitch, Manager Daily Circulation, P. 0. Box, 488 Omaha, Neb. e The Omaha Zrcelsior, Clement Chase's new social paper, made its appearance on Saturday. It is a bright and clean paper, and prosents a very attractive ap- pearance. That it will succeed there is no doubt, for it it has the social field all to itself, and there is a demand for such a journal in Omaha, Mr. Chase has cer- tainly made a hit with his initial num- ber. It does not matter who advocates the rights of the workingman and his eleva- tion through propor and lawfal methods, whether it be a tailor in the workshop or an enthusiast like John Swinton, he is entitled to proper recognition and respect. If Bon Butler nas anything to say in the interest of the workingman he should be accorded a respectful hearing. Tue New York Journal continues on the tidal wave of success. It now has a circulation of 110,000, and this has been accomplished in less than two years. It certainly is an unparalleled record. The Journal is one of the brightest and wit- tiest papers in the world. It isthe sparkling champagne of American jour- nalism, and occupies a field exclusively its own. Tue democratic party in Nebraska, as elsowhere, has the happy faculty of blundering. There are ten chances to one that the democrats will utterly fail to realize that they are largely in the minority in this state, and cannot hope to succeed oven against the weakest of ropublican tickets unless they present candidates whom anti-monopoly republi- cans can consistently support. J. Sterl- ing Morton as candidate for governor simply means the re-election of Dawes. Tur Lancaster county democrats have instructed themsclves to support state treasurer Sturdevant for re-election, Mr. Sturdevant was unfortunate in being # member of the board that leased the school lands to land-grabbing syndicates 1f Mr. Sturdevant " voted no on the Keith county leases, 80 did Governor Dawes. But they should have voted louder. Nobody heard of their vote until after the citizens procur- «ed an injunction in the courts, It isa case of Old Dog Tray with Sturdevant and Dawes, They trained in bad com- pany and got burt. Eusewnere we publish a letter from Mr. P. C. Himebaugh, which was origin- ally directed to the Omaha Zepublican. The editor of that paper, it would seem, took exception to the article which ac- companies tho lotter, and went clear out of his way to lampoon Mr. Himebaugh for attempting what he regarded as an impractical reform i the matter of municipal reguiation, Such criticism is entirely ancalled for. Mr, Himebaugh simply desired our Omaha oflic to follow in the footsteps of the mayor and council of Minneapolis, If law, order and decency can be enforced ina city of 100,000 inhabitants, the same result can be accomplished in a city with half that population, At any rato there was no excuse for blackguarding Mr. Himebaugh because he asked the Omaha papers to republish the rogulations recently pub lished by the authorities of Minneapolis, Tur pornicious eflect of tho conviet Iabor contract system upon free labor is well illustrated by the disasteous compe- ‘tition that has resulted in Joliet, 1llinois, between free labor and the penitentiary convicts, A large wire-drawing estab. lishment which is in direct competition with the prison contractors,who pay only fifty-five cents perday for labor, has been obliged to reduce the wages of its opera tives, Of course the employes of this wire-drawing factory are indignant over this reduction, but they should remen/b.r that their employers have in this instance been obliged to meet the competition of the prison contractors by reduction of wages, or olse abandon their bus- iness in which they have invested a great deal of capital, The laboring men of Illinois, who are thus put on an equal- ity with penitentiary convicts, should make a vigorous protest againet the con- tract system, which destroys the value of their labor; and manufacturers, whose business is virtuslly ruined, should assist them iv the movement in every possible manner. Manufacturers and workingmen are alike interested in the abolishment of the prison contract system. It has been done away with In many of the lhm', but it ought not to be allowed to coutinue any longer in any state of the | plimented by the glowing tribute from union. 1t exists in Nebrasks, but the next legislature should take decisive steps Y ed from an Omaha dive to the position of towards its abolishment, DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY. The democracy of Nebraska, for al- most the first time in its history, is in a position to render an important rorvice to the people of this state, The nomina tions made by the republican party tor state officers do not commend themselves to the rank and file of that party as en- titled to their support. The revolt against the debasing methods employed bosses is very general by corporation within the republican party, and if the democracy has the wisdom and the cour age to unite with the anti-monopolists in the nomination of a ticket which commands popular confidence an effective rebuke will be administered to disreputable parly leaders and the stato government will be placed in safe hands for the next two years. The golden opportunity which now presents itself will, however, be lost if the demo- cratic party refuses to respond to the sentiment which was 8o emphatically ex- pressed in the elections of 1882 and 188 Two years ago 17,000 votes were cast for the anti-monopoly ticket and it is safe to say that fully five-sixths of the anti-mo nopolists were formerly republicana, These men revolted against corporation bossiem, and they braved all the batteries of calumny and abuse in upholding their principles. They did not oppose republican candi- dates because they were republizans, but because they were monopolists. It is folly to invite these men to unite with the democrats in support of any candi- date whose past record has been that of a monopolist. There can be no success- ful union of the olements oppcsed to James W, Dawes and other obnoxious candidates upon any ticket headed by a monopolist or one whose career has been identified with monopolists. Now J. Sterling Morton is a man of splendid abilitier, and he would undoubt- edly grace the governor's chair or any other offico within the gift of the people of Nebraska, but Mr. Morton has no natural aflinity with anti-monopoly principles so far as they apply to the regulation of railroads. His honest sentiments were expressud time and again through the columns of the Chicago Zimles and the Omaha Perald, \1\1;‘,:{” his relations with the Burlington a¥e broken off or still exist is immaterial. He cannot convince the people ¢f Nebraska that tho change of heart on this vital issue of anti-monopoly is sincere. 1t would be impossiblo for any true anti-monopolist to champion his election excepting as a last resort. His defeat, oven if he were ondorsed by the anti-monopoly convention throughsome dicker,would be aforegone conclusion. and he would carry the whole ticket with him. It would be a repetition of the Beach-Hinman cam- paien of last year. Mr. Morton may not realize his own weakness as an anti-mo- nopolist, but we admonish his friends and admirers to reflect before they plunge their party into another foolhardy cam- paign. The figures of two years ago should be suflicient. In 1880, when the total vote of Nobraska was 87,345 Thomas W. Tipton, democratic candidate for governor, received 28,167 votes. In 1882, when tho aggregate vote of the state was 89,068; J. Sterling Morton received 28,562 votes, or 3556 more than Tipton. It will be remembered that Morton made a brilliant canvas of the state. There was no per- sonal or political war waged against him as there would have teen had there beon any probability of his election. If ho were nominated this year on a fusion ticket, he would be bombarded by 150 papers and fifty speakers, Instead of an aggressive campsign against public wrongs and personal corruption and, in- competency on the republican ticket, it would be a defensive campaign to oxplain away Morton's monopoly utterancos and personal connections with the railroads in the past. The out- come can ho easily foretold, The Ber 1s nota democratic paper, and does not propose to dictate to democratic conven- tions. Its only aim and object at this time is to exert its influence in bahalf of an honest and vigorous adn of our state affairs and the selection of legislators who will carry out the lettor and spirit of the state constitution with regard to corporations and public carriors, 1f the opposition can unite on men whose past careor affords a guaranty that these 6, stration objects will bo carried out in good faith the Brr will give them its oarnest support, 1f the democrats commit the unpardonable blunder of putting in the field candidates whom we cannot cousistently recommend Tur Brk must decline to becomo a decoy for that larpo class of voters who have in the pust relied upon its advico in political affairs as safe and sound, _— YSERE" HIM IMMEDIATELY, The republican state convention paid a deserved tribute toa mont worthy and ofticient officer in the manner of the re- nomination accorded Hon, James W, Dawes, for the governorship. The polit- ical scayengers wore at work doing their utmost to compass his defeat und the manner of his renomination was only a slizht indication of the high appreciation the republicans of Nebraska have of his mwgnly and Llhuemy. * The editor of the Un.m)m Ber bas evi- denily been “'seen” by Messrs. Dorsey, candidate for congross in the third dis trict, Willard, candidate for state treas urer, and H, H. Shedd, candidate for heutenant-governor, or some of their friends. Tue Ber annouuces, through ita editorial columns, that these mon are all right, and that it will be satistied with their election, The other republi- can tominees should *see” the editor of Tuk Bek at once, if they want the sup- port of that paper.—|[ Blair Pilot, Governor ihwu must feel highly com.

Passing from the sublime to the ridiculous, we would like to know whether Van Wyck is a political scaven ger, and if not, why not7 Perhaps Mr, Dawes’ estoemed friend is not aware of the fact that Governor Dawes did call upon and “see” the editor of this paper at Tie Brr office the day after ho was nominated, and after away disconsolate, On the other hand Mr. Shedd never came near the editor of Tir Brr, and Messrs, Willard and Dor- sey did not seek a spocial Interview. But Benjamin Franklin following in the foot- ateps of the founder of the defunct Blalr Zimes, imagines that candidates must subsidizo their supporters and buy off their opponents. 1 Benjamin I, was at the helm of Tix Bex he would have to bo “scen” every twenty-four hours during the entire campaign, and then he might ellout if he was not watched very closely. Talk about political scavengers who have to be “seen” and your mind instinctivey turns toward such repro- bates as Frank Hilton, 700 SMART. Forr Omana, Sept. Tthy 1854, Editor of Tig Beg, In answer to my (uestion —Is a soldier allowed to vote ? you refer me to sectious third and fourth of article fourth of the constitution ¢f the state «f Nebraska. Sec. 3, Art. 4, of the constitut on of the state rends: ““The supreme court shall have appelate jurisdiction only, except in cases relating to revenues, mandamus, quo warrants, habeas corpus, and such cases as may be tried beforo it; and both the supreme and district courts shall have both chancory and common law jurisdiction, and section fourth of the same article has reference to judici- ary only. Wil the editor of the Brr pleaso explain. Respectfully yours W. B. Ovzrrox Mr. Overton is a vory smart aleck, If ho had the constitution of Nebraska why |, didn’t he consult it in the first place. In tho second place, aftor he had got an intelligent answer from Tusz Bzk, why does he take advantage of a technical mistake in order to make our answer ap poar ridiculous? . Tis Bes, in answering his question, did rofer to section 3, of article 1V, but this was a typographical error. The sections quoted are in article VII, headed “Rights of Su‘feage,” in- stead of article Y. Any intelligent per- son who has a copy of tho state constitu- tion could have informed himseli on that subject without imposing on the news- papers. Tur Bek is always accommoda- ting, but when wo are asked to explain why this question of sufirage is not in tho article on judiciary, we are forcibly reminded of the noage ‘‘that!a fool can ask questions which it would puzzle a wise man to answer.” Crry Treasurer Buck has disposed of $455,000 in short time bonds. These bonds are payable five years hence, and aro issucd to moot the cost of that por- tion of the pavements that is to be paid for by tho owners of the adjacent prop- erty. Now itis well known that the owners of such property may at their op- tion pay the entire paving tax as soon as it is lovied if they do not wish to avail themselves of tho privilege of paying in five yearly installments. Many of our heavy property owners who own perhaps more than one-half of all the lots within the paving district in tho business center have, wo are Informed, paid their paving tax in full rathor than pay soven per cont, interast on the unpaid balance. If onehalf of the $455,000 levied as paving tax this season is paid in by the property owners the city treasuror will have about $237,000 on hand for five years. The question is what will wo do with that money’ The property owners havo cut off their soven per cent by paying the taxes in ad- vance, while tho city is paying five and six per ocont on the bonds. How will the city raise the monoy to make good thisinterestaccount? At five per cont 6n $225,000 tho interest on tho short time bonds would amount t0 $11,250 per annum or £15,000 in a period of five years. That amount can- not be lovied against the property as a paving tax where the owner has paid his taxes in full. It cannot be levied against the property whose own- ors pay seven por cent intorest on thelr unpaid paving tax and it cannot be legally taken out of the general fund. 1t sooms to us, therefore, that the treas- urer should be rejuired to reinvest this surplus from time to time in other short- time paving bonds, when this can be done, orin bondsof the United Statesup- on which the city could realize av any time, As it is now the city treasurer has a large sum on hand to deposit in the banks from which thecity derives no ben- ofit, while at the same time we are pay- ing five and six per cont on bonds, Itis the duty of the mayor and council to re- quire detailed reports from tho treasurer a8 to the amount actually on handin each fund, and whensver there is a surplus in any fund that is not needed, and could be " | safoly invested in interost-bearing securi- tioy, the tronsurer should be directed to 8o invost. This policy is dictated by sound businees policy. Coxvier labor by contract is simply slave labor, which should never be al- lowed to compete with free labor in this freo country. The mnext legislature of Nobraske should take the first stops to abolish convict labor by abrogating the lease of the penltentiary.

I say now as I said then, if a law is not good it may be repealed, meaning by that utterance that redress may be had by law abiding people on any law they think not good by going in for a repeal. Redress can thus be had by all bad people on good laws, and good people on bad laws, I did not propose to discuss the laws of Minueapolis or Omaha, nor did I say any good law should be repealed if not endorsed, but did say a bad law should be repealed; and I say now to t' e people of Omaha why not obey the laws, that peace, prosperity and good morals and maintenance of good laws may follow in maha as elsewhere? I am a friend to all—to everybody—as all who know me can testify ; but I say for tho good of all, that any American who is unwilling to obey the laws is not worthy of the name, and any foreigner who ignors the laws of this free land of his choice, should reform and obey the laws or return to his mother country. P. C. Hivesaven, The following is the order recently issued by the mayor of Minneapolis, which I desired the Republican to pub- lish, and which it scems to me commends itself to our municipal authorities Mavor’s Orrice, MINNEAPOLIS, Minn Aug —John West, Ezq., Chief of Police —Dr 1R: As you are well aware the public mind is at this time somewhat disturbed in regard to the alleged laxity manifested in the enforcement of cortain ordinanzes of the city which directly af- fect the public morals, more especially the ordinances relative to the sale of in- toxicating liquors, houses of ill-fame, gambiing, etc While many statementa which pass current are not well founded, and others are flimsy structures built on a foundation of truth, 1 deem it proper, although cognizant of your intentions in the matter, to call yourattention and that of the department of which you are the efiicient head, to certain provisions which among others, will oceur to you, I desire enforced to the letter. In so doing Tim- ply no censure upon the force gencrally, as 1 know full well the great amount of work which has devolved upon it during the last few months, and am disposed to credit such each and every officer with a desire to do his whole duty in the absence of proof to the contrary. Let it be understoed that all gambling houses, and places of overy description must be closed and kept closed. Nor must any specie of gambling, or game of chance for cigars or other thing of value, he tolerated, either upon the public streets or elsewhere. A strict watch must bo kept upcn all supposed houses of ill fame, and should any disturbance occur at such a place, or neighbors moke well grounded com- plaints, let them be closed as soon as possible. And let it be distinctly un- derstood that prostitutes or women of known bad reputation, will not be al- lowed longer to congregatein the upper rooms of business blocks to the annoy- anco and discomfort of respestful occu- poants, mor will they be per- mitted directly or indirectly to ply their unlawiui vocation on any public street— let such characters understand that if they appear upon the streets they must at least wear the air of respectability. To the end that no places shall sell li- quor without license, let one or more eflicient officers be detailed, from time to visit every saloon or other place in the city wherein liquor is sold or reputed to be s0ld, and ascertain not only whether or not said placeis duly licensed but whether the licenses are posted up as re- quired by the ordinances, To this end you will take the proper steps to securea full Jist of all paties who have taken out They are jucier, fresher and of bettor flavor h } genvrally, more like the apples we used to |government licenses from the interr steal back cast when a boy, than are the | revenue office for the sale of Jiquors, ete apples that come in by lox e Before 1ong | and their places of business, o sce to tho fact that this is a fruit country will be rec: it that all such partics who have not ogpized,” takon out city licenses aro prosecuted, A Kearney capitalist named Pettis put up | whoher they b hotel or saloon keepers or selling underthe dieguise ni drugyists, grocers or other calling, N to the evidence is secu to insure the convic- tion in every such case, and for this pur poso secure suitablo peravus — whethe the regular force or not drug storo and grocery, in the patrol district, wherein there is th least suspicion of wrong do any complait, formal informnl ismade You also eause it to be wetly un derstood—and hold patrolmen responsi- ble, as far as may be proper, for viola- tions on their respective beats which es- 50 their notico—that all places selling liqquor, ete , upon Sunday, or between the hours of twelve p. m. and 5 a, m. of any day, are promptly reported to you, when you witl cause proper complaiuts to be tande.

Frau Schatfer is said to be the handsomest wo- man in Vienna and the complainants be- lieved that a repetition of the offense would be fatal to the morals of youny men in the neighborhood The defense was that the lady was simply making her toilet with the window open, The judge summed up the case with great delibera- tion. “If,” said he, *‘she had looked out of the front window, the scandal would “have been public and an of- fense against the law would have been committed, but as she only appeared at the back windows the case was different.” The fair defendant was dismissed with a warning and recommended for the fature to pull down the blinds before commen- cing her toilet. e — “Hello!” wo heard one man say to any other, the other day. I didn’t know you at first, why! you look ten year younger than when T saw you last.” 1 Jeol ten years younger,” was the reply *You know I used to be nnder the weather all the time and gave up expect ing to be any better. The doctor said I had consumption. I was terribly weak, had night-sweats, cough, no appeute, and lost flesh. 1 saw Dr. Pierce’s ‘Golden Medical Discovery’ advertised, anl thought it would do no harm if it did no good. It has cured me. I am a new man because I am a well one.” ——— California Campaign Opens, SaN Fraxcisco, September 6,.—The repub- lican campaign formally opened this eveniog thronghout California,” Tho speakers include some of the most prominent mombers of the party.
