The earnest four years' work of Nebraska's fearless senator to break down the barriers which monopoly neys, posing as popular represents had erected in the upper house n[(nu gress to obstruct all remedia \mm (‘)nmpnuhhvp u! nw rights of the people as against the arrogant aggres- sions of the tak-shirking and land-grab- bing corporations has made a broad and deep mark on the records of the pres- ent session of congress. Almost alone ho has borne aloft the banner of opposition to the railroad lobby and has preached a vigorous crusade agamst the wrongs of monopoly oppression and the laws behind which the corporations have bulwarked themselve The record of the senator is open to all. It has been made in the full sunlight of publicity, and it comprises his chief claim on the suffrages of his constituents for a re-clec- tion to the senat The Obnoxious Senate. Not long ago the Bay State ciub of Bos- ton banqueted a number of prominent democrats, nmong whom was Governor Hill of New York. The governor had participated in the ceremonies attending the unveiling of the statue of Daniel Webster at Concord, New Hampshire, where he had made an address landatory of the greatexpounder of the constitution, and thereby had the wore surely com- mended himself to the men of M wchu- setts, who without regard to party honor the lion whole ac- the memory of Webster. He w: of both oceasions, and on the quitted himself with credit. It is worth while to note the opinions and course of Governor Hill, who is un- deniably one of the very strongest men to-duy in his party, and whose influence is very sure to be widely extended during the next two years, Simply as a politi- an he is v much superior to N (o) W, and being more decidedly partisan than the presidentis very sure to grow in the cem of the great body of the party. It is apparently a safe forecast that he will be aprominent figure before the next national demo- cratic convention, and he is not the sort of man to permit anyjpersonal considc tions to interfere with his chances. He may be grateful for the moral and mate- rial aid extonded by the president in the eampaign which made him governor, and which was given none too soon, but he will not be moved by it to make any sac- rifices. There is renson to believe that with the masses of the New York democ- racy he is stronger to-day thanis Mr. Cleveland. Governor Hill is ¢onse- quently a very interesting person. The salient feature of the speech of Mr. Hill at the Ray State club banquet was his deprecation of the confirmatory power of the United States senate. His declaration of opposition to this power was important as voicing the growing fecling of hostility with the democ- racy to the upper branch of congress, which has had a notable development since the democratic administration came into power. Mr. Hill is too careful a politician to make any mistake in a matter of this kind. He has un- doubtedly felt the party pulse most care- fully and knows its direction. The sen- ate is an obstacle to the unchecked exer- cise of executiye prerogative in the dis- tribution of patronage, and Mr. Hill and the democrats who agree with him—a very large majority of the party, it is not doubted—would abolish this senatorial power, and leave to the president the untrameled right to appoint all public utive selection— appointing them, as the governor stated it, in recognition of faithful party ser- vice, and not upon merely sentimental grounds. In other words, 1t ought to be the privilege of a president to foist upon the public service, without any right of inquiry or objection on the part of the representatives of the poople, any number of Higginses, Thomuses and men of like ilk, who are com- mended to him as having rendered faith- ful party service, which seemingly is the chief if not the only requirgment which democrats like Governor Hill would de- mand, With no intention to at present discuss the matter, we refer to the views of Goy- ernor Hill merely to note the drift of democratic sentiment in a very important direction. The country has seen a long established right of the senate 1o demand certain information relative to removals from and appointments to oftice ch lenged and combatted by a democrati administration, and later the democratic governor of the greatest e in the union, 1 a speech to a democratic assem- blage which he knew would reach demo- cratic attention in every soction of the country, proclaims opposition to the exer- cise of confirmatory power by the senate, and counsels the withdiwwal of a pre- rogative given that body by the framers of the constitution as a safeguard to the public service. Com- ing from aman of less consequence in the party than Governor Hill, such a proposition might not challenge atten- tion, but as his carcful utterance, made with an obvious purpose, it is worthy of something more than a passing consid- eration. Evidently the democr: has not abandoned all ot its destructive ten- dencies. Emm——e— They Do Not Pay. Thero 15 another general freight war betwoen Chicago and Missouri river peints and the competing roads are slashing tariffs as i a cut of sixty per cent in rates was the merest ohild’s plav. Rates on connccting systems are becom- ing demoralized, and there are prospects of a goneral shake down in all western traflic, The cause of the dispuato wus a trifling difforence in passenger traflic to St. Paul sowe weeks ago which commun- ieatod itself later to the Omaha passenger business. ‘I'hen by & natural step troight rates beoswe involved. In consequence the whole trans-Mississippl country is now threatened with a prolonged conflict betwoen competing roads, which, befors its close, is likely to involve the entire west, There is no advantage In the long run to cither shipper or consnmer in this sort of business, Publie interest demands fair and stable rates on the railroads, not a varying scale that takes a dollar one week from the cost of transporting a bar- rel of sugar, and adds that amount and half as much more in another week to cover the loss. Ralroad wars mean loss to the company and unsettled trade to the merchant, while they make little d chase ‘Lhe normal always used by retailers which to figure the tran the article and the profit to be derived from its salo. The invariable effect of the spasmodically low rates of a railroad war is to force merchants to overstock in order to reap the temporary advantage of the reductions. In most cases the supposed advantage is more than dis counted by the interest charges on money borrowed to carry the overloaded stock. — A Questionable Project Asameans of confuting the assump- tion of a tory organ in London that na- tive born Americans are not generally in sympathy with the cause of home rule, and that the agitation in this country is not supportea by American public opinion, it has been proposed to hold in New York a mass meeting composed ex- clusiv, of native born Americans to express sympathy with the Irish cause, It is said thatsuch a me eting may be held on the 4th of July, and itis the plan of the projectors to make it as distinguished as possible by securing the attendance of prominent public men ont of politics and conspicuous ministers of the gospel, the latter more particularly to demon- rence to pur rate charged is sa is from portation cost of not chiefly countenanced by the Catholic clergy. to doubt and stimul We are disposed whether such a meeting is expedient, or would be of uny to the cause of home as the sunmiption of organ is concerned, it rule. So the tory wus doubtless made almost wholly as a piece of buncombe, and there are not half a thousand of the most radical torics in London who will believe it. The opponents of home rule t Britain know perfectly well that the American people almost unani- mous in supporting the Irish cause, and thatin the very nature of things they could not entertain any difterent senti- ment, They must know this from the utterances of the American press, with- outregard to political distinctions and cer- tainly wholly regardless of considerations of Irish patronage, from the declarations of prominent citizens who have nothing to ask or to hope from the Irish vote, from the expressions of societies composed chiefly of native born Ame is, and from the enunciations of clergymen of every Protestant denomination who are Americans. We do not believe that a mass meoting in New York—which it is suggested might be followed by others in the larger cities of the country—could add anything to the force of the tes- timony already at command show- ing the sympathv of Americans with the eause of Ireland, d if this is not suflicient to satisfy skeptical English- men of the churacter of popular senti- ment on this subject in the United States mass meetings wiil not accomplish that perhaps desirable result. The expedi- ency of the proposed method is also ques- tionable, Have we, as a people, any duty mn the matter which requires that we should proclaim our opinion in the way proposed? Would it be a legitimate and proper proceeding for the American peo- vle, as native born Americans, to thus formally and systemat in a controversy with which this country has no direct interest as a nation, except as it affects a sentiment or princivie in which we believe? Isit, in o word, well for us to meddle, in the manner sug- gested, with the political afiairs of other peoples? And if there is neither necessity nor undoubted expediency to justify us, ig it not probable that tho cause of Ire- land would be quite as likely to lose as to gain by the proposed proceeding, whi many Englishmen now well dispose nd might regard as unwar- The Fre The Omaha freight bure no doubt will be, of grest assistance to the merchants of this in forreting out and bringing to the attention of the railrond managers the continued diserim- inations which are beiug made aguinst Omaha by roads operating in the state. ‘The bureau and its commissioner pos: a great advantage in being backed by an eficient railway law on the statute books, will enforce itself if the railroad n be, and rs discover that the ma- to compel an enforcement of its provisions is at hand, Oma- has now reached a stage when asks on behalf of her merchants is a fuir field and no favors.

The pres- ence of Mr. Haas in Omaba representing a number of Chicago capitalists who de- sire to transfer their stock interests to South Omaha secwms to have stirred up a genuine hornet's nest on the board of trade.
