This is well enough in its way, but it should be preceded by the disinfee- tion of New York politicians. They smell ranker just now than the rags. Jay Gouvrp flatly declines to arbitrate on the differences between the Missouri Pacifie and its employes. Gould is evi- dently a bear on M. P. stock. When the market has been depressed sufliciently to suit his purpose, the trouble will no doubt be settled GERONIMO d from. This time he has met € nd r option of unconditional surrender or a fight 1o the death. Geronimo'’s braves prefer the former but the Apache chief at last accounts was hesitating over the choice of death in the ficld by the bullet or a hemp neck-tie on an Arizona gal- lows. New additions to Omaha are being platted every day, but we hear of no new factories being established, To maintain real estate values in the residence por- tions of the city there must be steady em- ployment for an increasing hnmber of wage earners, Industrial development in Omaha will be the real estate owners’ bonanzas, SECRETARY MANNING'S illness threat- ens to disable him permanently. It rumored that he has handed in his resig- nation to the president, fecling that he can no longer perform the important du- ties of chief of the treasury department. This is to be regretted. Mr. Manning has made a good seeretary of the treasu He brought to the oflice long experience in matters of fin; clear head, good judgment and firmness in the performance of lus duties. Iris to be hoped that the choice of members of the board of education will be made this year on an unpartisan ba: The school board has nothing whatever to do with politics, and politics should be entirely discarded in the selection of members. If the central committec would agree to make no nominations and to leave the choice to a meeting of citizens irrespective of ty, that would be the most desirable method. Next to that, a momination through concerted action of the two committees would be most satis- factory. There should be no seramble for positions in the board of edu and the candidates should not be ms party issue. Mg, LAMAR has decided that the subsi- dies paid by the Central and Union Pa- cific railroads to the Pacific Mail are not “‘necessary operating expenses,”’ and can not therefore be deducted from the gross expenses in order to arrive at the net 25 per cent which is payable to the treasury «of the United States. This is sound. The subsidies which the Pacific Mail extorted as the price of not comveting with the Pacific roads were simply blackmail. During the last nine years the Union Pa- cific has paid the steamship company $354,000 and the Central Pacific about £500,000. Mr. Lamar advises the treas- ury department to enforee the collection of this little balance. SeNATOR HOAR succeeded in prevent- ing the Van Wyck amendment to Ed- munds’ resolution from coming to a vote by raising the point that it was out of order, as it changed the rules of the sen- ate without the usual notice. This was a great relief to the senatorial st for star chamber etiquette. The senator from Nebraska ventures to express the opinion that had his rcsolution come to a vote it would have passed. The crusade against the secret session has gained und rapidly since the day when Mr, munds expressed his horror atthe bare suggestion of considering nominations in open sossion. Ir now appears that Mrs, Stanton did mot write to Miss Cleveland in depreca- tion of low-necked dresses; that Miss Cleveland did not in return prescribe the limit of upper nakedness; and that Sena- tor Logan has not published a mili movel; ull of which leads the Philadelphin JBeeord 1o say: “‘Congress isso slow in got- ting down to its work that thejversatile Washington correspondents of the news- papers ure exercising their exuberant fan- «©y in furnishing an expectant public with mews. While it may be fair gume to worry the senator from Illirois, 1t is not fair to badger the ladies. They are enti- tled. ut least, to that eandor of criticism swhich has n basis of truth to rest upon.” SENATOR VAN Wyck bravely cast his ‘wote against the Edmunds resolutions re- garding the right of theysenate to ques- tion the executive in respect to removals, Many other senators on the republican gide would have done the same if they had dared to voice their real sentiments. The attempt to ballyrag the president was purely for political effect. It was doomed to defeat from the start. The question involved had been settled yonrs , and the decision was not in favor of . Edmunds’ position, When My, Oleveland declined to be eross examined * that should have ended the controversy. Phere was nothing more to be gained by ing the matter. The object of the iry which was to place Mr. Cleve Qand’s prowises of adherence to civil ser- ‘wice reform in contrast with his perform- mnee 1n the matter of removals was then meoured. To carry out the programme * and to place the senate on record as as- serting a right which neither the consti- 0 nor precedent gives it was a lish piece of bravado. . As Senator Van k sententiously remarked, * burat powder. Chamberlain's Defection. Mr. Chamberlain has finally handed in his resignation, and Mr. (ladstone’s cabinet loses an important element of strength in Josing the great radical leader, 8ix months ago mo student of English polities would have believed it possible that the premier wonld advance a seheme for Irish pacification which the head of the Birmingham radicals would refuse to follow on the ground that it was too advanced. Mr. Chamberlain, like Mr. Morley, had always been eonsidered the ardent advoeate of radical methods in dealing with the Irish problem on the line of cor tion and home rule, while even in his own party Mr. ( stone’s conservatism 1 the same dircetion was amatter of frequent comment. Events wve caused the political separation of two men who oughtto have united forces in securing a settlement of the troubles in Ireland. Naturally a whig, with strongly avowed prefercnces for a gov- ernment along the lines of English tradi- tion, the premier b been forced by growing public opinion into a policy psed by the entire aris of Great Britain and which runs counter to the sentiments of all sticklers for the maintenance and development of impe- rial rute. Mr. Chamberlain, on the other hand, bas for years held aloft the banners of advanced radicalism. Ile has op- vosed the hereditary elacs on all they hold most dear. He has advocated the widest possible extension of the franchise to the masses, the destruction of entail, disestablishment of the church and division of the landed estates of the gen His democracy has been open and unblushing. With the ad/ance of radicalism in the liberal anks, he was looked upon in many quar- ters as the natural successor of M. Glad- stone in party Tis defection at the pre: ud on such an issue v on the grounds of dis- appointed ambition. He felt slighted at the humble office to which he w signed in the eabinet, and he seems de mined to ruin what he was not permitted to rule. Mr. Chamberlain may like S son succeed in pulling down the structure of the liberal (,..\hnul but like Samson he may pe in the ruins. His day seemed ne hand. He had a large and an enthus following, who admired him for brilliancy of his attainments, and spected him for his outspoken convie- tions. But his desertion of the govern- ment in its struggle for Irish rights may indefinitely postpone the dream of his political life. Laberal England, which, after a century of struggles, has succeeded in securing home rule for itself through an enlarged franchise, haslittle sympathy for the class whichis working strenuously to fasten the chains of English landlord- ism and English leg ion upon Ireland. The men who have been for years yearning for the opportunity to acquire farms in England will not support those who are straining every ne the Liberalism in England is the nat- ural ally of reform across the channel. It is so by common hopes and common endeavors for common The expe- rience of the past, which taught Mr. Gladstone, has educated his party. Mr. Chamberlain will not, he cannot succeed in turning back the tide. If he stands in the path he is much more likely to be en- gulfed in the wa A Nice Job. The attempt of the advocates of the Cinnabar & Clark’s Fork railroad bill to rush that measure through the senate without reference to a committee was very properly defeated. The bill is a job which needs thorough ventilation. It proposes to grant the right of way through nearly fifty miles of the Yellow- stone Park under the pretense that the route is necessary in order to reach the Cinnabar mines. As a matier of fact the aim of the projectors is to obtain a monopoly of traflic and travel into the park by u franchise which has been con- sistently denied to other parties. There is a nearer and a better way to reach the mines over shorter surveys which lie cntircly outside of the res vation limits. The national p: has been set aside for national purpos “The policy of the government is to pre- serve it from intrusion and desecration for the use of the public. Largeamounts of money are to be spent inimproving its roads and making its scenic features in all their romantic beauty availuble to those who visit it. Corporation speculat- ors should be warned that the boundaries of the park must be the limits of their enterprise. To invade the park by rail would be taking away the charm of its seclusion, to injurc its forests and drive away the game along the line of route. ‘Fhe Cinnabar & Clark’s Fork road 1s a job projected in the interests not of mining industry, but of railroad stock jobbers. It is not demanded by the interests of the scction which it proposes to serve. A shorter and an easier route can readily be found, and the profiles ave now on file in the company's portfolio. What the jnvaders of the park are after is not wineral, but monopoly. They are cry- ing public interest in order to mask their private schemes, The committee on ter- ritories will doubtless see that their bill reaches a safe pigeon-hole in the commit- tee roowm, The Pow:lerly Circular, The associated press has given publicity to a ‘‘secret’ circular directed to the Knights of Labor of America by General Master Powderly, Taking it for granted that Mr. Powderly is quoted correctly, which is by no means certain, we will comment upon it as it appears to an out- sider. The key-note of Mr, Powderly’s cireular is paticnee and conciliation. He commends to the Kmghts patience and forbearance as the most eflective means of sceuring the objeets of their order He urges a conciliatory course between dissatistied workmen and their employers and s strikes as a means of settling disputes wherever they can be avoided. Mr. Powderly, who is cool and clear-headed, evidently fore the danger of harmful and wasteful conflicts merely for the sake of testing the strength of the order. He realizes that the Knights of Labor have become an un- wieldy body, which, above ali things, needs diseipline and level headed direc- tion. It is a very easy thing to get up a strike, and quite another thing to foot the bills. But even if the Knights were fully prepared tor a long and exhausting siege, they are not yet sufliciently disciplined to refrain feom all violence. They cannot restrain the unthinking elementin therr order from making strikes an occasion for forcible interference with property rights and disturbances of the peace. It is for this reason that Mr. Powderly warns the Knights of Labor to be careful abont admitting new members, He foresecs clearly that designing politi- cians, marplots. gpics and monopoly cap: pers will enter the ranks for selfish pur- poses or to create discord and turmoil inside of the order. In cautioning the Knights"against roor- backs gotten up by agitators who love a fight for the sake of a fight, Mr. Powderly expressly warnsthe brotherhood against acting upon reports that a gencral strike has been ordered either for the pur- pose of redressing grievances or enforeing the eight hour law. He shows that st are war and that war injures all con- cerned, and adds that while the motto of the order is, “‘An injury to oneisthe con- cern of all,” it is not wise to injure all for one. Arbitration and not force, says Mr. Powderly, is the tribunal before which Knights must lay their troubles. Their success as Knights will be in proportion to the general use of this court. It is cheap, available and effective. It stops mo work, closes no doors, bringg no want to the door of home and family, and excites no bitterness. It does not menace the peace of society or inflame the passions of employers or employes. These are brave words from a brave man, Register. The registrars have now opened their books and will sit for purposes of tration in the ous preeinets for a week to come. The places where voters may be registered wiil be found in the notices published elsewhere in this issue. Itis highly important that every qualified voter in Omaha should see to it that his name is properly on the The law makes registration a prerequisite for casting the ballot. It will not do to trust to the old lists. Many names are being erased. The only sure method to prevent disfranchisement is for voters to person- ally visit the registrars and see that their names and residence are correctly listed. The coming eloction 18 to be one of the highest interest to all citizens and tax- payers of Omaha. Six city council and three of the board of education are to be chosen. It is of great moment that every taxpayer shoula have a voice in the choice of the men who are to govern the city for two years to comne. Upon the selection made will depend to a very large degree the welfare of Oma- ha and of her citizens. More than a mil- lion of dollars will be expended between now and 1888 in public improvements in this city. This large amount will be dis- bursed by order of the city council. Whether it will be disbursed honestly or not depends largely upon the choice of the electors of Omaha at the polls. Register; and register early. Do mnot take a friend’s word that your name ison the list. See to it in person so that there can be no possibility of mistake. It will be a diflicult matter this year to swear in votes at the polls. Every citizen should therefore be sure to register in person be- fore the books are closed. Tae musical festival which is to be given in the Omaha exposition building in the month of June promises to be a great success in every respect. It will be the most brilliant musical event that has ever occurred in Omaha, and it will at- tract the attendance of people from all quarters of Nebraska and western Towa. It will be one of the best advertisements that Omaha has ever had. The conductors of the enterpise, Messrs. C. D. Hess and S. G. Pratt, of Chicago, have been guaranteed $8,000 by the exposi- tion company. It is now pro- posed by the company to solicit sub- scriptions to cover the guaranty, but not to call for the payment of the subserip- tions unless there is a deficit in the re- ceipte, and in that event the assessment would only be pro rata. Under the most unfavorable circumstances the deficit could not be very large, and hence the pro rata assessments upon sub- seribers would amount to but very little. But there is no doubt in our mind thatthe receipts of the festival will largely ex- ceed the guaranty. We believe that they will foot up over $12,000. The call for subscriptions is simply to cover a contin- gency, and a tvery remote one at that, We hope, therefore, that our citizens will not hesitate to subscribe to this public en- terprise, as the managers of the exp tion building deserve the most liberal public support. IN an article yesterday relating to the tax-fighting methods of the Pullman com- pany in Wisconsin, Tennessee and other states, the BEE stated that it believed the Pullman Pacific Car company paid no taxes in Omaha. This is a mistake, ns we find upon investigation that the com- pany has regularly paid taxes in this city for several years, and whatever causes the Pullman company may have for re- sisting taxes in other states it seems to have no ground of complaint in Ne- braska.
