Saym Ravpare’s “noble tarfl reform measure'’ reduces the tarifl’ §2,000,000, and knocks off' §26,000,000 annually from the interual revenue. Mr, Randall is a tarilt roformer for monopolies only. Tie smoke of factories and forg nd the whirr of mills are the atmosphere and music which every enterprising eiti- zen of Omaha will welcome to our midst Industrial activity means mercantile and domestic prosperity. A Brzz saw should be provided by the county commissioners for James Creigh- ton to tackle the next time he flies into a rage over the impudence of any man in questioning his assessment. A new board of county commissioners shofld also be provided to protect citizens who are witnessos for the state from insult at the hands of the shi Mr. GLADSTONE maintained remark- able vigor during his Scotch campaign- ing tour, but the wear has finally pro- auced a demand for rest and he will re- ‘mamn a week at Hawarden for needed recuperation, before meeting the clectors of London, Every friend of Ireland will hope that he may in that time be thor- oughly re-invigorated for the resumption of his great work. SENATOR INGALLS, if he is not misrep- resented by a Washington paper, is not a hidebound moralist. He is quoted as saying, in reference to the measure be- fore congress prohibiting pool-selling ~ud book-making at horse races in the strict of Columbia, that such a law ought not to be enacted, for the reason that “evervhady knows tnat horse racing urally encourages betting, and people arightto do as they please with money.” Upon this theory of the right of the individual to employ his money at his pleasure, of course any form of gambling is defensible, and ought to be tolerated without restraint or hindrance. But without discuss- ing the moral feature of the matter, it may be observed that horse- racing is a logitimate sport that may be properly encouraged, and the objection to pool-selling and book-making in con- nection with it is that they have a ten- dency to corrupt it as a sport and to turn tho race-courses of the country into mere gambling avenues, with the inevitable effect that races are determined accord- ing to the interest of the parties to them m the pool-boxes. The best results have been obtaned in courses where public betting was not permitted. TEN years ago, the publication of an item announcing thata New York mu. seum was about to send out a skilled bunter in search of a good specimen of a buftalo would have been received with shouts of laughter throughout the west. To-day it excites little comment. Then the country was swarming with herds of ison. Dukota and Montansg alone annu- ally sent tens of thousands of robes to the eastern markets. Kansas, Indian territory and Texas furnished an ample supply for hunters. The Platte and Republican rivers of Nebraska still contained large herds. To-day it is stated on good authority that there are not now more than from fifty to one hun- dred buffaloes in the whole of Moutana, outside of the National Park, where there are probably from 200 to 300 head. Hun- tors lic in wait outside the limits of the National Park, waiting for the animals to cross the line, when they lose no time in dispatching them as soon as possible, A ampede may oceur at any time, which may result in all the buflaloes now in the park leaving, and if such were the case, very few, if any, would escape. Skins of buffalo heads are now valued by taxi dormists in Dakota st $50 each, from which 1t may be assumed that they have given up all hope of procuring any more. Tue American buffalo is practically ex- tinet. A few small herds are still romu. g across the border in Canada, but of the bundreds ot thousauds which once hold possession of our prairies and dark encd our plains in their wild stampedes, searcely & handful remsin within the profecting lines of the Yellowstone Park ' | tion | Neglocting An Important Question. | There was point in the suggestion of Senator Hale, made in the ¢ of a speech in the senate on Monaay, that it ell if president to time to the ¢ leration of ters and urse would be w the were devote ons certain comparatively minor m | give 1y to the greatun ated | commereial field that is to the American people, but the president might very properly reply that there is litl use in employing his time in such study pt ns a mgtter of personal informa majority of his party it th powerles more st he oper when the eat 1 ress care nothing a h be n interest in it wod down by a profound z the commerce of the that constitute a zation | in cong 1« ject, and awaken g party is not wei de regara country. The elements majority of that political neither comprehiend nor care for the con ditions and necessities of American com merce, while the leaders in congress are continually engaged in a “fight to the finish™* to determine which one has the greater skill and shrewdness in tarift tink ering, with the sole object in view of per: sonal political advancement. The aver: congressman has no nd the boundar and the menship of them is narrowed to dhe wishes of a constituency, or in its widest to the demands of a section. This has been largely true of the democrac, for half o L but it is more conspu uously the fact now than ever before in the history of the party that it has no great and trusted Jeader of broad national statesmanship. The contentions of Ran dall and Morrison, for example, are, in the most gencrous view that can be taken of them, nothing better than the battles of politiciuns struggling for personal su premacy. It is a brazen mockery for such men to prate of their devotion to the pledges of party or the welfare of the country, when every move they make is )ly designed for theicindiyidual ad- vantage. Morrison heing up, the one study and effort of Randall is to drag him down, and thus the party is continu ally in a state of warfare waged by self- king factional leaders, Every intelligent manufacturer and merchant in the country knowsthat there is u vast and growing ¢ommerce in =the southern half of the Liemisphere of whic in-the very nature of things they ought to have a liberal share, but of which they getonlya very small part. England, rmany and France command nearly the whole of it, and every year their grip upon t immense t e, whiclris grow- ing with wonderful rapidity, becomes stronger and surer. Every year the diffi- cuities and obstacles which shut out the Ame n merchant and manufacturer from this commerce become more nu- merous and harder to surmount. Every year there is more urgent demand for the ontlet which these great markets would afford for our surplus products. But the alleged statesmen of the eountry—con- spicuously just now the democratic states- men—utterly fail to comprehend the exigeney or the possibilities, and go on in the same old beaten path with nothing before them but images of themselve: This matter, than which there can be none more important, has been dinged mto the ears of congress for years, and al- ways with thesame result. The present congress will but follow in the tracks of its predecessors. Wherefore should the president give time to the study of a subjeet upon which in all likelihood he will never be called on to pass judg- ment? Anew and a wiser generation, with the sugmented pressure which n greatly increased demand for new mar- kets will make upon it, may be expected to estimate this question at its full value and deal with it practically wonld I'he democ solicity organi age democr thought or int ies of his ! of the best scoy se A Thin Mask. Mr. Randall’s tariff' bill is a very thin mask behind which the democratic ¢ pion of the great industrial monopol trying to pass as a revenue rcformer. Having succeeded, with the aid of thirty- four of his party, in defeating the effort of Morrison to reduce tariff taxation. Mr, Randall was forced to disclose his hand, and to suggest what, in his opinion. would meet the pledges of his party and the requirements of an overtaxed people. he result bill which Pig Iron Kelly might have drafted with no inconsistency to his record as the father of protection. It proposes to reduce the internal rey- enue 00,000 in order to prevent that amount of reduction in tariff imports, to increase the free listto the extent of a willion dollars and to reduce duties to an equal amount, Two millions of tarifl reform and twenty-six millions lifted from tobacco and rum sums up Sam Randall’s prescription for the decrease of overtaxation from which the country is suffering to the tune of 85,000,000 a year, Mr. Randali holds his seat in congre: through the money and the votes of mil- lionaur monopolists ~ whose vast fortunes have been acquired by the stum- ulation of an exorbitant tariff and the indirect tax which it imposed npon the public, His personal and pofitical inter- osts are involved in preventing any legi lation which will reduce the treasury sur- plus by reducing the duties on iron, salt, fish, lumber, blankets, tools, sugar, knit goods and other articles used by the farmers of the west. Those intercsts he proposes to further still more by reduc ing the revenue from tobacco and liquors and maintaining the tarif on food und clothing. It is & very thin g which Randall is using—so thin that conceals nothing, His tax reduction bill has unmasked him as a bogus reformer of the high tariff breed and the cnemy of all genuine and equitable tariff reform, The English Elections, The first of the Fuglish elections will be hela on Saturday, but the number will be s0 small that no inferouces can be drawn from the results, On Tuocsday next the great borougnbs will begin to cast their votes on the momentous i of Gladstone and home rule or Salisbury and coercion. By the end of the wec the question will be decided, It is quite impossible 1 advance of the polling to predict the probable result of the great contest. Observors like Justin MeCarthy contess thomselves at sea and predict a close election.

Mention has heretofore been made the fact that the New York Society the Prevention of Vice had begun « sade agamst tl garette v of for cru- indecent advertisements ndors, and the action has had its effect in inducing all putable dealers to suppress the offensive pictures This sort of advertising has had a great growth in the past two or three yoars, and it was lugh time that long-offended deceney should enter a furcible protest against its continnance. Referring to this matter the New York Times observes that indecency in adver- tising i< by no means confined to prurient tastes, and it notes that a clothier in Brooklyn “has discovered that an an nouncement of sudden death startles peo ple, and has made use of this discovery by cmploying death as an advertising This ingenious draper sends about the city a wagon rrying in vlain view a stuffed re representing a with the legend in large letters, “drop dead,’” fol lowed by announcements relating to his busimess. This is altogether the most outrageous advertising expedient we have ever heard of, but in nearly all of the he country there are of- fensive methods employed by a ¢ of merchants, showmen, and deplers of one kind and another, to attract attention to their business, which public sentimont ought to array itself ngainst so strongly that the lawmakers would be foreed to stamp them out by enactments earrying lieavy penalties for their violation. No reputable and f-respecting man will, of course, adopt such of adverti nd those whe of doing so are not entitled to tion. In the : of ng this objectionable advertising, popular reprobation can be by the refusal of self- people to patronize man who employs medium, " corpse cities o ass se business methods capable leni- or consile for suppr shown respeeting business here are 1 ing which ar more serviceable in attracting people whose patronage is de- ble than the methods which are, i nearly all the large cities, an offe public decenc d to cultivated taste, and the better class of merchants employ no other. For the most part, the columns of the widely cirenlated newspaper is the sufficient and the surest medium which the merchant can use for muking known the attractions of his business, nd this is no less the ease with respeet to all kinds of legitimate amusement, as most of the better class of mar r' admit. But, in any event, inaccen tising ought to be suppressed, and re spectable people will wish that the crusade against it may become general and eftectiv What Did It Prove ? While looking with contempt upon Read and his deportment the board felt that an tion would relieve them of any possible charges of collusion and set at rest any doubts which might exist as to the jus- tice of the assessment of the men who had been accused of tax evasion. The result of the meeting yesterday proved the wisdom of the board's decision. it proved conclusively and beyond the possibility of successful con- adiction that the men named by Read had to an individual turned in a truthful assess- ment of the valuation of thelr personal prop- erty, and that in many instances they were assessed more than in common justico they should be taxed. More than this, the inves tigation showed further that the wealthiest class of citizens pay thewr full proportion of taxes.—Herald, The only scintilla of trath in this com- ment is that the commissioners looked with contempt upon Read. It is also true that the board is anxious to make the middle class of tuxpayers, and especially the Kaights of Lubor, believe that they were honest in acting as equalizers of taxation, The remaimder of the state- ment is an insult to common itelligence. The whole proceeding was a huge fa from beginning to end. The conduect of the commissioners shows them to be cither incompetent or dishonest, or both. Most people who have watehed their performances of late will conclude that both will fit them best. Tiom the outset they neverin tended to equalize the taxes bt to re- duce them for some of their own favor- ite Read's personal conduet cannot be considered in connection with this im- portant question of shirking. He may bo a very bad man and a tax-shirker himself, but that does not justify men who count their wealth by the hundreds of thousands in evading their taxes by making ridienlously low returns, The “eentempt,” which we are told the com- missioners had for Read, does not stify the disgraceful browbeating and oulldozing to which he was subjected in their presence, They were sitting in the capacity of & court of inguiry, It was their manifest duly to eite the parties gainst whom complaints were . and not sneak behind Read and pre that Le was the person at whose orde rehants and taxpayers were called to dance attendsnce upon them.

Sibl sroderic ated in your lato upon this subject, I beg you kindly to wd to grant me a little more of your space, in order to reply to some of their statements, and express myself a little further in favor of tariff reform, prefacing my remarks with the assur- ance that I will no more impose such an infliction upon you and your readers. These gentlemen (Mes and S.) seem to have sli stood me, as in my former letter I did not advoe: free trade,neither did I advocate a whole sale reduction of the tariff. I simply said that I believed free trade would come in the course 5f time, and that as a preparatory measure or a step in that direction a wholesome tariff reform could be inaugurated at the present time. Be- lieving as I do, that trade or commerce isas much subjeot to the laws of nature as is the health of the community, and that all interfering with, damming Jor bolstering up of the free course of trade is inthe end injurious and mischevious, I therefore advocate less protection or more freedom in commerce as a benefi- cial measure caleulated to promot extend trade. Lrotection in my opinion, tends to contract trade, wher on the otiier hand free trade tends to expand it. Protection may be a necessity in a new country or small colony, in order to make it n country, but in a large country ke this, which has arrived at full manhood, and is able to compete and compete sue- cessfully in many of its industries with any other country, wherem, then, is the good of having such industries clogged m_their growth by a high tariff, M. Sibley suys, ny frec-thinker, even an iron protectionist, deny that free is a forerunner of " starvation misery and want?” Yes, I for one deny that statemont, and I have only to point him to England, which has now enjoyed the blessings of free_trade for forty years or thereby, during which period of time her trade has quadrupled in extent, and wages have more than doubled. The expansion of trade does not tend to lower wages, but rather to ad vance them. Again ke says, “‘competi- tion with cheap Inbor (Chinese) is one of the gravest and m aggravating cases we have had to deal with as a nation.” Well, with regard to the Chinese, say that I for one (and I t speak for the most rabid free trader) would not shed a tear—unless they were tears of [joy—should they take their de- parture from these shores instanter. But when we come to consider the labor ques- tion we are at once confronted by the 'y, what constitutes cheap labor? Who ean define what is cheap labor and what is dear labor. Itis very much a relative matter, for what one man may consider good wages another wun muy consider very poor wages; another thing the Jue of wages con- sists - very much in thewr purchashing Suppose one man to earn §3 y under a high tariff, and it costs to live, and another man rns 2 o day under a low-tariff rate, and 1t costs him just ¥1 to live, they each save a dollar a duy of their w but the man who saves the $1 under the low turiff, is considerably the richer man of the two, simply because his earnings have the most purchasing powe: Then aguin this so-called eheap labor is not such a curse to the country as protection- ists nssert,for there nterprises which have y undertaken and com- sans of comparatively cheap to-day, and always have been, of great utility and benefit to th communit Enterpr which prob ably could'not have been omplished but for the compuratively low price of labor.
