This step by the Burlington in adyance of its competitors will neces- sarily force the other companies to en- deavor to meet and surpass this enter- prising road. But the Burlington offi- cials announce that they will not be surpassed, and thus still another ad- vance in western railroading will be accomplished.

Buy a Settlement. Edward Atkinson, the alleged political cconomist, who is prolific of opinions and suggestions upon a number of public questions, has evolved a plan of settling the fisheries controversy. He proposes that the government buy and annex the maritime provinces of Canada, and thinks the United States could afford to puy fifty million dollars for those pro- vinees if they could be purchased for that amount. ~ Having hecome our prop- erty there would of course be an end to all dispute regarding fishing rights in the contiguous waters. The author of this scheme may find some satisfaction in the fact that it has received quite as much consideration as it deserves from the public press, but he ean hardly have found much that is fattering in the character of the opinions expressed. The very general view is that it is utterly impracticable. There has been a good deal of expros- sion in the marithme provinces of the Dominion within the past year or two favorable to anuexation to the United States, which is very likely the source of Mr. Atkinson’s idea, but it is by no means to be regarded as certain that if the consent of the people of the proyv- inces 1o atransfer of allegiance was sought n majority of them would be found ready to give it. In the hard ex- perience they have had for a year or two past these veople have felt at times vory bitter toward the Dominion gov- crnment, and while in such temper huve talked freely of revolution and anne tion, but were the question of perma now It is out that General given Sparks will seek re-clection tocongress.

SULLIVAN arrived at Manchester yesterdny, and was received by an immense crowd of people. Mr. Bullivan noticed, perhaps, that there was no gate money received from the vast throng. Where could Jay Gould have been, that he did not improve this opportunity of paying his expenses? — Oun special New York correspondent says that there is u good chance for Omaha to secure the national conven- tion. The most serious objection to he urged is that Omaha cannot accommo- date the vast crowd that will be in at- ——— tendance. There is a difference of Misleading Statements, opinion on this question, and the com- An - irresponssible and sénsational newsgatherér some weeksago sent from Los Angeles, Culifornia, a dispatch to the Boston Globe in which he stated that dispel all feurs concerning lack of hotet carpenters were getting ashigh as$5.50, plasterers #6.00 and brickluyers 87.00 per day, and went on to state hundred more mochanics could find profitable work in Los Augeles at that dat The Los Angeles Trilune complaing bitterly of this mischievous dispatch, und says the consequence is that hun- dreds of carpenters are rushing to that city only to find shat they arce not wanted at any price.

The projectors of the Nicaragua canal have not been idle for some time past, and now that the outlook for the Pan- ama cunal has become mniore hopeless than ever before, the American project is not unlikely to have a boom. It is re- ported from Washington that the com- pany getling ready to make a vigo- rous attack upon congress for an appro- priation. If this is true there has been achange of purpose, and one that may not be to the advantage of the immedi- ate promotion of the enterprise. | It has been understood that the canal was to be built, if at all, wholly by private cap- ital,and that the company would ask nothing from the government beyond a franchise that would secure to it gov- ernment protection. We are di posed to think that thi is still all intended that s to be asked of congress. If it should nspire, however, that an appropria- tion is necessary to enable the company to goon with the enterprisc, it is cn- ¢ safe to predict that the project will have to be indefinitely postponed. There would probably be noserious pop- ular objection to congress grauting the company such a franchise as would as- sure to it government protection, but there will be a very gencral unwilling- ness to give the enterprise any financial aid from the national treasury. There has not been in the last twenty years a more unfavorable time than the present to seeure popular approvai of any new scheme to get money out of the public treasury. The projectors of the Ni some two years ngo obtained from the Nicaraguan government valuable con- cessions, and last spring a con- struction company was formed, which has just held its first meeting in New York. Tt has been unaerstood that preparations for preliminary work were in progress, the company having suffi- cient money on hand for that purpose, and it has been stated that the intention was to begin actual work next February. The total cost of building the canal, it is now estimated, will not exceed $65,000,- 000, and the claims put forward in be- half of the project arc certainly of a most promising character. If it can be demonstrated that they are reasonably sure of being realized, there ought to be very little difliculty found in securing all the private capital nec In view of the almost inevitable collapse of the Punama scheme, it is apparent that now is the opportunity of the Nicaragua project. The Dairymen's Convention. The Nebraska Dairymen’s association will hold its convention in Omaha on the 13th, 14th and 15th of next month. The programme arranged gives assur- ance of an interesting and profitable The subjects to be talked practical oceasion. about are of a thoroughly character, and those who them are fully qualified by their know edge and experience to do soin a way both entertaining and instructive. The promise is that the convention will be largely attended, and we may here say to all concerned in Nebra: dairy in- terests that Omaha will be glad to wel- come them. The local committee ap- pointed to make arrangements for the convention can be relied upon to per- any | | form the duty with intelligence and thoroughness, so that all who may attend the convention will find ample preparations for their satisfactory en- tertainment. The Nebraska Dairymen’s association has already accomplished excellent work in promoting and improving the daivy interests of the state, but as yet these have notadvanced far beyond the first stage of development, and the pos- sibilities that lie beyond are immeasur- dle. So fur as the dairy industry of Nebraska is developed, however, it will compare favorably in results with that of any other state of the union. Many of our farmers brought with them the kuowledge and experience acquired in the east in the work of the dairy, and have increased both since they became Nebraskans Therefore, our people know as well as any others what is choice in the products of the dairy, and such products are to be obtained in Ne- braska of a quality not surpassed in the famed dairy sections of New York and Ohio. But gratifying as is the progress already made, there is room and will be a demand for a vastly greater develop- ment. Our dairymen need not be satis- fied with being equel with the best; the; should seck to excel all others. re is every incentive to this, for the of Nebraska yields grasses and grains unsurpassed, and a vapidly grow- ing population within the state and around it assures a demand for every pound of the product at a profitanle pr Theve is no pleasanter and few me remunerative oceupations than a well managed dairy business, and the field in Nebraska is very far from being fully occupied, We have no doubt the com- ing econvention can do much to stimu- | late and advance this very important industry, in the growth and improve- ment of which every one of our people is interested. | even e A PERIURER has been convicted in the United States distriot court, by u jury of twelve men. Itis tobe hoped that this verdict ill have a healthy effect, us there is altogether 0o much perjury in our courts. In this case, however, as it no doubt often happens in others, the guilty man appears to have been the victim of bad advice. In fact, the evidence ndduced shows that he relied upon his advisorina civil suitand made @ false, without wding the statementscontainedin them, Such stupid carelessness is hard to excuse.

It has been pretty thoroughly demonstrated, however, that cars can be successfully heated by steam with- out materially reducing the motive power, and the chief question now ap- pears to be the adoption of a uniform stem that will cnable the cavs 'of one company to be coupled with those of another.
