The new post, Du Chesne, in Utah has been given $25,000 to provide temporary quarters for the troops, comprising eight companies re- eently ordered to that cantonmont. — BEeLvast 1s quiet, but it isfeared that it is the peuce that comes of temporary exhaustion and not that which follows eonquered hates and burned-out ps sions.

Mg, CLEVELAND isn't reading news- papers at present. He is engaged in the much more enjoyable business of ecatch- g trout and entertaining his mother-in- law. But if he wore keepng himself posted on current opinion he would find something of surpussing interest in the Now York World of last Monday. That journal having been charged by a Gal- weston paper with a desire to throw Clevelaud overboard and push Hill to the front as & presidential caundidate, the World roplies bluntly that “if a state | eonvention had to elect delogates to-day 's it would unanimously endorse Mr. Cleve- Jand's admnistration but eloot Hill dele- es.” 1t asserts that the friends of ernor Hill control the party organiza- tion in New York completely, and ex- presses the beliof that bo can make him- solf invincible in the next state conven- tion. There can be no doubt that the World describes the present situati eorrectly. Will Colector Magone be able to turn the tide? It is extvowely problvmatical.

The midile of August always marks the height of buwilding activity in Omah: rccounted for by the difficulty ex- enced eve spring 1n obtaining brick. The brick-yards fail every year to carry over from the fall before enough brick to till the contracts which begin to accumulate in the spring. As a conse- quence building is delayed except whe provision has been made for brickmonths in advance of constraction. Just at present the most important baildings in Omaha have only commenced to get under full headway, viz: the new Paxton building and the two bank build- ings, which will be the largest on Farnam street.

W Omaha needs, and needs badly, is an es- tablishment for muking brick which will start in with capital cnough and plant enough to accommodate the public, and break the monopoly which controls the briek business in this city. Such an in- stitution would meet with a gencrous support.
