IN ALL the arrangements for the dis- play of our industries, whether on the strect or on the exposition grounds, South Omaha products should be given due prominence.

Itis very ovident that the prince never heard of Mr. Sumpson of Omaha. of the Sioux commissioners at Crow Creek, coupled with the growing reluctance of tho In- dians to sign the treaty, argues no bet- tor smecess for the commissioners than at Standing Rock. IN se1TE of all efforts to displace the wooden sidewalks on Farnam and Doug- las streets before the 1st of September, there are still a number of business places disfigured by plank walks. The owners are nearly all mossbacks and non-residents. THE national greenback party will Told its convention in Cincinnasi on the 12th iustant.

Assuming that the four hundred dis- abled veterans draw their pay regularly, the average amount of each pension paid once every four months istwenty- eight dollars and sixty-nine cents. Ir is admitted that the democratic parade at Lincoln was a grand success, and it is conceded that the democratic state ticket is made up of respectable men. But nobody outside of an insane asylum will for a moment contend that there is a ghost of a chance to beat Gov- ernor Thayer for re-election, even if all the bar'ls in Nebraska were tapped. Di. GEORGE L. MILLER has allowed himself to be interviewed as to demo- cratic prospects this fall. But it is very poor comfort that he holds out for Cloveland. **He will win, but only by the hardest kind of fighting steadily maintained,” is a sorry edmission for the doctor who comes directly from democratic headquarters in New York. — Tue democrats of the Fortieth sena- torial district of Kansas have nomi- nated Hon. S. 8. Reynolds to represent them in the upper house of the Kansas legislature. Mr. Reynolds will be re- membered as a stalwart anti-monopo- list who represented Butler and Polk counties in the Nebraska senato of 1883, with signal ability and unfiinehing fidelity to his constituents and the peo- ple. If Mr. Reynolds is elected we can safely predict that he will be found true as steel and firm as a rock on the vital 1ssues that concern the producers and industrial classes. E—— THE house committee on private lands has taken the Maxwell land question in hand and will immediately propose such legislation as will relieve innocent set- tlors in that territory from the injustice of the Maxwell company. From all re- ports the people of that district are law abiding and were stirred up to defend their homes only by the policy of evie- tion adopted by the company. To turn such settlers out of house gnd home is odious to all principles of equity and foreign to our American ideas of right and wrong. It is therefore proper for congress to take up the settlement of the question and extend to these set- lors whatever rights they are justly en- titled to enjoy. In the meantime both the Maxwell company and the settlers have refrained from acts of violence and are willing to submit the question to the arbitrament of congress. ger vivalry 10 | an The question aving the domain of politics, both parties in con- gress will be controlled mainly by the consideration of party advantage on the Pacific coast. Anticipating At invaded the rejection of the the demoerats are charging the yonsibility the » amend- ments. They claim that as originally submitted to the senate the treaty wo! have been accepted by the Chinese g nment. It is suflicient reply to th say thatthe leading democratic pupers of California pointed out some of the defects which the amendments cted, and unquestionably the treaty was improved by these changes, though not to the advantage of the Chinese government. There will be a very general feeling of relief when this somewhat perplexing question, which should be treated solely on business principles, is finally sottled. on sena senate o The September States, Two states, Vermont and Maine, hold a general election this month, the for- mer to-morrow and the latter ore weck from to-day. Vermont is so securcly republican that the democrats make v little effort there. Twoy a the republican plurality was over twenty thousand in a total vote of fifty-seven thousand, and nobody expects it to be less this year. The democrats, howeve have been somewhat hopeful of Muine, and therefore have made a very v ous canvass in that stat They have sent a number of speakers there, and it was at one time proposed that Mr. Cleve- land himself should visit the state with a view to invigorating the zeal of the democracy and perhaps attracting to its ranks whatever wavering element there may be. On the part of the r publicans the campaign has been under the leadership of Mr. Blaine since his return, and very little activity on cither side had been manifested pre- vious to that. The tariff and the fish- evies questions have been the issues chiefly talked about, in both of which the Maine people are very much in- terested. 1t is hardly to be oxpected that o majority of them will vote in favor of any surrender as to cither of these issues, and it is therefore a little difficult to understand upon what the democrats base a hope of carrying Maine this year. They have a popular candidate for governor in Mr. Putnam, who was a member of the commission that framed the fish- eries treaty and who is fully committed to the Mills bill, but if he were much more popular he could hardly, under existing circumstances, overcome the | that nearly thirteen thousand republican plurality of two years ago. The strong probability is that both Vermont and Maine will show a con- siderably inereased republican vote. SEmTe——— The Stana and Deliver Policy. The Kansas state board of railroad commissioners has been called upon to adjudieate a peculinr though not an uncommon complaint against a railroad company. The citizens of Tyrone, a little town in Seward county of that state, have preferred charges agninst the Rock Island, setting forth that the road has conspired to ruin the town and build up a rival started by the company. It is alleged in the petition that officers of the Rock Island demanded that the town site of Tyrone and other grounds be given to the railround. To this the people of Tyvone demurred, when the offieials built up another town five miles back and refuse to operate the railroad to Tyrone, the present terminus of the line. This is probably the first case of the kind brought directly to the atten- tion of the Kunsas railroad commission- ers. For that reason it will be watched with great interest. In Nebraska sev- eral cases of such action -on the part of railroads is on record, notably that of Wymore and Blue Springs. The evil complained of by the peopls of Tyrone is an old one. The highway- man’s trick of holding up a new town and making 1t “stand and deliver” is not confined to Kansas nor to the Rock Island. It has been successfully prac- ticed by other roads in every western state ns well. Many u town and city in Nebraska can attest to its sorrow the blood-money which lronds have wrung out of it. It was give, give, give, and threats of ruin if lands, bonds and subsidies were not immediately forth- coming. Whatever may be the merits of the Tiyrone ease, it is fortunate that the people of Kansas are going to make a test of this species of blackmail. Thero are rights to which towns along the line of arailroad are entitled and which semi-public corporations must respect. It will therefore be in line with the duty of the Kansas railroad commis- sioners in the Tyrono case laid before them to define such rights, and to sug- gest, 1f necessary, such legislation us will secure towns dependent on rail- roads, immunity from their extortion. EEEese——ee——— Butlor in Active Service, The reappearance of General Benja- min F. Butler in the politicul arena is an event of some interest. 1t is certain + ¥ give aspice aud flavor to the cum- paign, should ven if the efforts of the general | extend beyond Massachu- | seits, whick no other man could supply. | Butler's intelleotualindividuality is not less 1 1 than his physical. Heo isa i personnge all round, and the in any circumstances interesting an always command an audienc 1 has the ability to say sharp and clever things. Nobody will deny that he has brains, The difficulty intorferes with his usefulness is, thut nobody believes he has any con- fiemed convictions or principles. His political career has been more cheelk ered than that of any other man in the country. He has been in nearly all parties and an extremist in each. He was the most radical of dem¢ s be- fore the war, subsequently acted with the republican party, and four y ngo was the presidential candidate of the labor purty. In these scveral polit- ical or party relations General Butl exhibited a zeal that interested the country, but he could never dissipate the general belief that his zeal always had primary reference to personal ad- vantage. wk fore ¢ for the gener rs n service G veturning to active politicul weral Butler has taken a po- tion hostile to the democratic party. His chief labor will be to defend the policy of protection, and it is not to be doubted that he will exert some influ- ence with the working wmen of the country. He opened his cunvass in Boston last Friday and scoved some tell- ing points against Mr. Clevelund and the Mills bill, Referring to the fish- or stion Geaeral Butler suid he rreed with the president that the bill ving him power of retalintion was a poor bill, but he thought it nec y for the president to act under that bill in order to show that be is in earnest. “If he will do that,” said Butler, “he will show that his paper is the messago of a statesman and not of a campaigner on the stump,” a sentiment quite in line with the now nearly universal opinion. General Butle very like to in- et into the c at deal of matter that w Iy interest- ing to the democracy. is THE opinion of Judge Fairall sitting as chancellor at Towa City in the case of the Rock TIsland against the lo state railway commissioners mevely ve- afliing the decision handed down a few weeks 0go in the Minnesota cuse. [t is in effoct that the state board has no constitutionul authority to establish common carr which were i cov their operating ex- wd fixed ges. The puling in the Minnesota se was that a com- mon e is entitled to a fair re- muneration over and above its neces- sary expenses. With this doetrine no reasonnble person will fnd fault. Railronds are entited to fix rates sufti- nt to pay a faiv interest on the mone, actunlly invested. But western rvoad are not honestly built and fairly talized. This point the learned jud evidently Consequently unfair advantage is taken of the people by railronds in exacting an interest on an inflated capitalization of fifty thou- 1d dollars a mile when in renlity the ad can be built and equipped for fifteen thousund to twenty thousand dollars a mile. It is just here where nine-tenths of the trouble be- tween the railroads in their relations with the people spring The con- struction companies and inside rings in ailrond corporations are making big money out of every mile of road built and saddle the load on the backs of the peopie. Let the actual capitalization of railroads be determined, and let the law as propounded by Judge Fairall he applied, and no one will begrudge these rates for ' overlooked. st | need of a polic | Canada that will keep a eertain class of common carriers to earn 6 per cent on their capital invested. Froy all reports the Deep Water con- vention at Denver was not a most har: monious gathering. It heeame app: ent from the beginning that the Texas delegation was split into two factions which was made ovident by the many acrimonious and personal debates, cul- minating finally in the submission of a majority and minority report on resolu- tions. The majority report adopted by the convention recommended the im- provementof Avansas bay. The minorit report was content to leave the selec- tion of & harbor to a board of competent engincors. In the wrangle and tussel, the delegates from the other states were mevely spoctators, leaving the Texa people to fight it outamong themselves. The sober reflection of the Nebraska delegates, especially the members from Omaha, echoed the sentiment of the convention outside of the Texans. Dr C. W. Conner, one of Nebraska’s dele- gates, well stated that it was the opin- ion of u y that as the United States was to furnish the money, she should have something to say about the selection of the deep-water harbor. But this did not suit the majority of the delegates in the Lone Star state, and the conven- tion humored them by submitting to their dictations, DEFINITE information of the manner in which Drummers’ day will be cele- brated during fair week is now given, and if the programme is carried out as arranged, a great treat is in store for visitors to the eitv. So many traveling men from all parts of the state have en- thusinstically esponded to the invitations of the committes in charge that the present arrangements surpass the original plan of the project. The large number of jobbfig and manufacturing houses in the city have also taken & great interest in the affair. In fact so many applica- tions have been received for space in the procession that it has been found necessary to limit the number of displays of morcantile firms. Tuking it all in all, drummers’ day promises to be a novel and enjoyable feature in the week's celebration, and one that will prove a great card in drawing people to the city.

The Lincoln fambean club assisted in the out- door exercises and fully 150 people were in the line of march. The showingz made was very respectable and did the boys of that ward especial eredit. Enthusiastic cheers ereeted the paraders now and then, At the conclusion of the parade Erb's hall was ked with hearers, who listened to W. H., Woodward and J, L. Doty on the issues of the hour. Woodward’s subject was “The Laborer Is Worthy of His Hire,” and Doty's, 1 ho Submission Question.” The speakers wore frequently applauded as they drove a spike into the democratic fortress, At the conclusion of the e: s a vote of thanks was tendercd to the Lincoln flambeau ab for its attendance and efforts to make the rally a success.

Towa will get all the money it wants or needs, and that, too, on the very best terms, because its securities ave known to be of the highest order. lown is beyond the reach of permanent injury at tho hands of railrond. nm ry corpora- tions, or of their servants or tools But slander will react on the' slan- der It is not in human nature to be lied nbout os the people of lown have bheen lied about by railroad cranks and feel kindly toward the lhars, eranks though they he. The vice of these miscrable slanders is that they produce irritations and tend to excite the prej- udices of the people alnost to as un- reasonable s piteh as that to which the sjudices of the corporations have run., There is thus fomented the ascerbity of strife, where there should be calm dealing. What the corporations above all thingsnecd is_just what the people of Towa are most disposed to give them —rensonable, conservative, generous, catmont. But here are the corporations stirving up strife by ob- streperous, malignant and slanderous assaults upon the people. Such a pol- icy is folly, madness, imbecility, and especially it is so even from the stand- point of the railrond corporations. There is no use in ndying words about the matter. The people of Town are irrevoeably committed and resolved to enforee “the policy of the legal con- trol of railways,” to use the language of the republican platform, which is v statement of the purpose of nine-tenths of the voters of all parties. The rail- road corporations may not likeit. They do not like i In the history of the world no selfish despot has willingly yielded power. But that doesn’t make any difference as to the fact, the corpo- rations have got to come down to a plane of responsibility under the law. Whether thev like it or notit is insanity to dash themselves against the stone wall of fa To refuse to recognize the stone wall, and to hasten their rush against it with the impetus of passion is only to hurt themselves the more in the collision. . And the corporations have got to yield o the law not only in lowa, but’ also throughout the west. Public sentiment in Towa, as emphatic as it is not so as in_some other weste § The resolutions s late Towa republi g i are moderation itself compared with those of the Nebraska convention, The demoer convention of Missouri the day spoke in terms even more vigorous. The same feeling is abroad potentially in Kansas and Minnesota. he next legislatur of 1 the s, which already have railrond legislation practically as stal- wart as iowa., will enact laws far more stringent. They will do this justas sure as fate. There is nopower on earth to prevent the speedy subjugation of the Iroad corporations to rigid ac- countability before the law throughout the west. And what are the railvoad corpora- tions, or those who are empowered to sp for the cocporations, doing to meet this day of judgment which is surely and swiftly coming? Are they deporting themselves to affect favorably the mind of the people, who are at once prosecutor, judge and jur, Oh, no; nothing of the sort. They are slander- ing Iowa, slandering everybody who does not stand for the policy of railroad superiority to public contrel or irre- sponsibility before the law. ft is very seldom that the party who isstanding before the bar will smite in the mouth of the judge, and then will expect favorable judgment. et el shrodebiny The Talent Out of Luck. ew York Mail and Express: The racing season of 1888 at Monmouth park will remain green in the memory of race-gooers for many years to come. No such reversal of public form in racing has been ev known. Favorite after favorite have gone down todefeat. Im- itation race horses have beaten the cracks. Men with wide experience,and with facilities for obtaining useful in- formation, have found their knowledge worthless. A man who knows little of racing went to Monmouth park on Sat- urday and picked five winners out of six, He named Paragon to defeat Siv Dixon, and sclected Maroon and other such chances, and was successful every time. No sane person with any knowi- edge of racing would have done this, Turfmen and veteran race goers would have laughed at anybody who selected Paragon in his erippled condition to de- feat Sir Dixon, What happened on Saturday has hap- penad on nearly every day of the Mon- mouth races, and happened again yes- The safest way to name the winn is to put the namesof the horses in a hat and pick out a name at random. Owners, trainers and jockeys can not account for the in and out run- ning of the horses, The thoroughbreds have not only depleted the pockets of the general body of race-goers, but have almost ruined a dozen he ow No reliance can be placed on p vate trials or public forms. Mr. Jen- nings has had enough, and will sell Dunboyen and his other race horses, Appleby & Johnson are thousands of dollars—some say #60,000—behind the season, and will sell all their horses. Mr. J. B. Haggin, a loser of more than $50,000, by the erreatic running of his horses, will sell twenty of them in ten days or two weeks. Captain S. Brown will reduce his stable, and if his ill luck continues will retire, These are only a few of the heavy losers, The mishap to the horses in the Pittsburg stable alone would muke a very inter- esting column of reading, and ther seems to be no end to the misfortunes that continue to crowd on the horse- men. Look at the once all powerful Dwyer stable. It is a wre The owners of it, Michael and Philip Dwyer, are ut- terly unable to win a race at Monmouth Park. Hanover, Pontiac and Inspector B. are on the retired list. The three- year-old horses that are not under hos- pital treatment are not able to win the price of their feed. The magnificent collection of two-year-old horses that cost a fortune eannot win _a stake, and the list of forfeits keeps piling up into the thousands, When the Dwyers gota horse fit to run they placo thelr woney | on him, and he finishes last, or far from | front. If the brothers were not sports- men of the gamest sort they would | tire. They do not contemplate this, however.
