This the or- firing the first gun in the campaign to | gans of that vote have promised, ussur- ing the democracy that the election of Hill would be impossible with Miller against him. But in any event the chances will be largely in favor of the republican candidate, for if Hill be re Jected there will be thousands of his de- voted followers who will refuse to sup- port any other candidate, whether he shall be the preference of Mr. Cleve- land or not. With a most available candidate, and a platform framed to suit the vast in- dustrial interests of New York, while speaking clearly and explicitly on all public questions; with the party har- monious, confident and well or- ganized, and with the opposition fretted by doubt, division and disaffection, the political situation in New York as it is at present revealed, warrants the ut- most coufidence in republican succ s0 far as the battle for the state admin- istration is concerned, and it would be most remarkable if winning in this the party should not also win for the na- tional ticket. All the reports that come from New York regarding the trend of the political current are in the highest. degree reassuring to re- publicans, even candid democrats admitting that there is little hope of their party carrying the state this year, and that it must make a brave ©ffort to offset this probable loss by car- rying some of the western and north- western states. Mr. Cleveland, how- ever, has settled the fate ot his party in those states by his buncombe retalin- tion message, conceding that before that there was the least possible chance of his carrying any one of them, and from now on democratic effort there will be as sheer a waste of time as would be republican effort in the south. ‘Without New York the very best the democrats can hope for is one hundred and sixty-eight electoral votes, and the very strong present indications are that they will get no more than the assured one hundred and fifty-three of the solid south, be formally opened by the republican league of the state on September 8.

COUNCILMAN ALEXANDER has his eyes open to the immediate necessities of the city, and his resolution to inves- tigate the methodsof disposing of gar- bage in other cities with a viewof build- ing a crematory in Omaha is timely and judicious. THE KANSAS CI1Y board of trade and ‘business men generally arve giving the railroad managers some very plain talk with regard to their new departure in resuming the slow coach passenger train service between Chicago and the Mis- souri viver, But Omaha is always will- ing to submit to any 1njuryand injustice at the hands of the roads rather than assert herself and protect her interests. E——— PRINTING montbly publications of the council’s ordinances at the rate of 8100 per month is a senseless piece of extravagance. Very few copiesof these ordinances find their way into the hands of citizens. Andas the ordi- nances are published in the official paper, there is certainly no excuse why the city should go to neediess cxpense of reprmtlng the same a month or six weeks after their appearance in the press. Generous Contributions. A couple of weeks ago Colonel Brice, chairman of the democratic nationa campaign committee, was ill at ease and made public avowal of his feelings. A chief source of his trouble was the fact that there was a rapidly growing de- mand upon him for campaign litera- ture and no means were being provided with which to meet the demand. About the same time Mr. Watterson, who is also personally concerned in the man- agement of the campaign, publicly ex- E—— ETHE Keeley Motor company for the fortieth time called upon the courts of Philadelphia, last week, to force Mr. Keeley to forthwith disclose the secret of his discovories and to take immedi- ate steps to patent his inventions.

It seems, also, that this liberality on the part of the president was emulated by several members of his cabinet who are in u position to part with a year's salary without distressing themselves finan- cially, and that better still, Chairman Brice and Congressman Scott each doubled the contribution of Mr. Cleve- ENGLISH merchants are just awaken- ing to the fact that their railroads need looking after in spite of the stringent laws in that country against discrimina- tion.

It is a very handsome beginning. But of course this sum is a bagatelle. It would not suffice to meet the de- mands for the campaign of the single state of Néw York. Perhaps twenty times the amount will be required to effectively carry on the work of the can- vass in all the states where the cam- paign' managers shall deem it necessary t0 expend money.

This | Mr. Cleveland and his cabinet officers have done. Besides emphasizing his own great concern in the political con- test, the president has virtually said to all whose official tenures are contingent upon democratic succ that they are expected to giye a substantial evidence of their desive for the success of that party. They need hold back no longer becsuse of any question as to the pro- pricty or safety of ccntributing. What the president may do in this respect it equally the privilege of the humblest office holder under the government to do. The way is made clear, and those who would walk the n have but to obtain the address of the national commitiee and send on theirremittance,observing the safe conditions that it shall be as liberal as the salary of the remitter will ify and that it shall be sent by reg- lotter or mouey order. Mr. Cleveland not only wants asecond term, but he wants it very much. This isone suggestion of his ten thousand dollar contribution. Another is that he has become convineed that something very much more substantial than his luck is necessary to success. Workingmen in Polities, The printers of Omaha constituto a body of men too ntelligent to allow itself to be used for political purposes, The union is capable of taking care of the union's inter- ests, but is not doing the catspaw act for anybody, —Herald, For whom has the printers’ union been acting catspaw? What right has any paper to cast reflections on the offi- cers of the union unless there are sub- stantial grounds for so doing? Above all things why should the organ of Ne- braska democracy attempt to arraign the printers’ union or its officers for ex- ercising the right which they possess in- dividually and collectively as citizens? It is an old adage that a Bourbon never learns anything, and hence never for- gets anything. Our Bourbon contem- porary is no exception. Has it for- gotten that the printers of New York waged bitter and unrelenting war upon James G. Blaine in 1884, simply because he was supported by the New York Tribune, and was an 1ntimate friend of Whitelaw Reid? The New York print- ers, 1n fact, claim credit for the defeat of Mr. Blaine and the overthrow of the republican party, and seck to justify their course on the ground that the Dvibune, which was the leading Blaine supporter in New York, was an enemy of organized labor, and especially of the typographical union. The same course was pursued in Cleve- land two years ago by the union print- ers when they opposed and defeated the local republican ticket because the Cleveland Leader was at war with the union. This retaliatory policy on the part of the union printersin warring against candidates ¥ use papers fricndly to them were enemies of the printers is hardly justi- finble. It was clearly an attempt to punish innocent parties for the sins of their friends. But suppose that Whitelaw Rexd was candidate for state treasurer in New York. Does our bourbon contempory imagine that the printers would remain indifferent look- erson? Would they not enter a lively protest against him, and if he was nom- inated, make a vigorous and organized effort to defeat him? The executive committee of the Om- aha printer’s union may have exceeded its authority under strict union rules. They may have been too zealous in try- ing to retaliate politically upon a can- didate who sought to break up the union, but there is not a scintilla of proof that they acted as catspaws for anybody, and there is precedent for their course when theoffice involved something more than a state treasurer- ship. Right here let us remark that all this gabble about keeping organized labor out of politics is the veriest bosh. Are not all political parties constantly bid- ding for the vote of the workingmen? Do they not all claim to be the friends and saviors of the laboring man? Arve not all their platforms full of planks to catch and trap the workingman? When organized labor does take a bold hand once in a while, the demagogues and hypocrites raise their hands in horvor and cry down the men who have the manhood to oppose candidates who have shown themselves to be un- friendly to labor. The truth of the matter, boiled down, is, that the printers who are trying to apologize for the conduct of their ex- ecutive committee, have made fools of themselves in casting discredit upon their officers, and indivectly upon their union, AT A recent meeting of the cotton planters of Tennessee and Mississippi at Memphis it was resolved not to use jute bagging at present prices and to substitute staves in its place. This action was deemed necessary in view of the fact that the manufacturers of jute bagging had formed a trgt and ad- vanced the price of baggilg. In the stand taken by the planters, the trust has evidently been checkmated. If the cotton growers can succeed in finding a substitute us serviceable and as cheap as jute baggihg, it will be a well deserved punishment meted out to the jute manufacturers. At all events the trust will be anxious to compromise the ques- tion of price if it becomes at all appa- rent that the demand for jute bagging diminishes. 1f the people of the coun- try who are compelled to bear the yoke of the sugar trust, the coal trust and the like could follow the example of the cotton growers by finding a substi- tute for such necessaries, the days of trusts would soon be numbered with the past. THE Hon. Roger Q. Mills, in his Chi- cago speech a few days ago, went back thirty-two years for an example of dem- ocratic regard for the rights of Awer- ican citizens.

The Metpopolitan "Prohibition club had their regular meeting Tuesday at night Fif- teent and Dodge streets. How to dispose of certain bills and misunderstandings Incident to the recent state convention held in this city, occupied most of the evening. A bill of $50, presented by the state central commttee for puying ex-Governor John P, St. John for ser- vices as a lecturer was regarded by the club as an item coming more properly under ex- penses assumed by the state organization. It was decided not to pay the demand. The president of thecluh, prohibdion nominecteor lieutenant governor,Johu Dale, then referred to charges recently made in cortain Omuha papers alleging that the democrats rnished the funds with which to out the prohibition campaign Mr. Dale said he bad answered those charges by letter, in which he pledged himself to throw off allegiance to the pro- hibition movement, if the editors of the pa- pers in question could satisfactorily prove their assertions. By vote, the club sustained Mr. Dale in this action. Mr. S. M. Gustin, the financial manager of the club, was urged to push his solicitations in rrdul‘ to meet pending bills, The Vagaries of Insano Mind. T. B. Lathrop, the insane map peddler who was turned over to the county authorities Monday, is revolving great financial schemes in his fevered brain. He says he is worth $10,000,000, and built the first house in Omaha, He announces that when he ‘‘gets out” he intends to build a monster packing house and show the South Omaha packers how to do business. But this scheme is oc- casionally side-tracked by plans for a bank, He also declares that he has discovered the error in the books and can account for the two cents—having reference, apparently, to the two cents misllsi( from the United States treasury when the democratic administration took possession. The opinion is growing ot the jail that Luthrop's insanity has not been caused by drink, but by mental work or worry. e —— Marriage Licenscs.

The Chinese, like theirartistic broth- ers of Japan do some verv clever wood- work, a fact which is re table when one considers the awkward and clumsy tools which they use. Their saws are all like our common buck-saws, although they are sharpened like o rip-saw. The chisels are clumsy and poorly tem- pered, and the planes are large, having to be pushed with hoth hands. While at work the Chinese carpenters assume positions which are singularly awkward and would be impossible to any one but a Chinuman. In planing a” picce of wood on a carpenter’s beneh of the or- Cinary length they stand with one foot on the ground and the other steadying the wooden block while the hands are engaged in shoving the plane. Much of their work is done sitting. ibsiiodecd hati A Guileless Bride, Puck: “Jinny!” scremmed an Ar- woman fo a girl of ninete ted in a fence corner, with arapt ex- sion on her innocent young face. replied the pensive pre: “Whacher want? maiden, “Whache “Aw, jist a-j tehin'a ant-fig Well, cayn’t you find nothin® bettern 'n to do that on your vu-fllhn day?
