This is not all. When Mr. Yost ap- plied on Saturday lust for permission to Tie BEE'S train, he was given to understand that he could do so by pay- ing one-fourth of the expense.. So much in b that b for nearly nid ( per train to connect fiyer, and offered to pay one- thicty pay st dollars per day one-guarter offered ench, Iy o pay entire shows that no scheme to ago and went clear 2ks ga use on that score. The most contemptible part of this gossip is the inuendo thata compact has between the editor of True Bee and the Burlington manager, that Tue BEE should be lenient to railroads in general and the B. & M. in particular. Such a compact was never thought of. The Burlington road has fixed its charges at thirty dollars a any and THE BEE has bound itself to pay this charge in legal tender. There no favor in that, is there, any more than there is in purchasing a thousand mile ticket over the road for its can- vassers at thirty dollars. It is purely a Dbusiness trausaction, open and above board, and the railroad people expect no favors in return and are not likely to get any. BEGIN REFORM AT THE ROOT. A workingman, whose letter we print elsewhere, takes Tie BEE to task for daring to have an opinion of its own on the proposed Australian plan. We are told that our criticism of the scheme will be disappointing to the labor organ- izations which have taken up this re- form, and Tue BEE isadmonished to adopt the views on this subject held by the organized and unorganized labor of the country. We respectfully but firmly decline to play the humbug and arrant hypocrite, no matter what other editors or politicians may say in the premises. We recognize Henry George as a true friend of labor and an earnest reformer, but many of his pro- posed reforms are utterly impracticable, as applied to our political system. The famous author of the Breadwinners and Progress and Poverty may be a Moses to lead the children of toil out of the wi into the promised land of milk and honey, but it will take more than forty yeavs for him to accomn- plish the task. For our part, we do not propose to de- lude workingmen by falling in with every visionary scheme that may be temporarily popular wigh them. We prefer to codtinue as we have in the pust, in giving them our views of better government in the light in which, with the experience of the past we are able to see it. The Australian way elections may leave the ward bummer and ticket peddler out in the cold on election days. That may to some ex- tent purify our olection machinery. But the worst abuses in our political system will not be reached by the Aus- walian plan of voting. You cannot uproot the American plan, with its rot- ten methods, you can banish the bummers, heelers and venal ward politicians from the caucus and the primary. There is where most of the corrupt work is done. So long as our nominating machinery remains under the control of rings, combina- tions of contractors, and boodliug oftice- holders and oflice-seckers, there is very little chance for thorough voform. [t is all very well to leave a place on the tickets for independent candidates, but what chance have independent candidates in a national campaign when the inteuse partisan excitement favors the yellow- dog candidate of “our party” over any honorable and honest cundidate of the opposition, and leaders of all the great parties are equally determined to stamp out candidates who hold aloof from any party? Tie Beg has for years advo- cated electoral reform. It was largely wstrumental 1n securing the enactment of the law regulating’primary elections. Thnat law is still defective in many os: sontial particulars. If our primary elections can be purified and divorced from corrupt influences there will be very little trouble 1n purifying our reg- ular elections. Without rigid regula- tion of primary elections all proposed reforms in our election system are dus- tined to prove dismal failures —————— PRISON LABOR.

The cffects of the en- forced in York upon sieal mental condi- tions of the prisoncrs has been marked. A large number have their health, and numerous indic of approaching insanity have been i ported. A policy that produces such results is crucl. Minnesota has also had an experience similar tothat of New York, with re- sults not less unsatisfactory. The legis. ature abolished the contract system witheut providing something to take its place, and during the past vear the penitentiary convicts in that state have been in enforced idleness, The L prison inspectors, who have just mad a tour of observation,find that the policy pursued has been demoralizing, and the slature will be advised re- store the contract system or give em- ployment to the prisoners on state ac- count. All the testimony of experience is strongly against keeping prisonors in idleness, not merely on the of cconomy, but for the reason also that it isa hardship and injust to the prisoners, tly intensifying their punishment. does S0 idleness prisons the pl New and very lost tions to seore are FOOD ADULTERATION. The belief that food adulteration is widely practiced is sustained by the re- port of the commissi i but that official give urance that there is little danger of injury to health from the adulterations, most of them being of o harmless character. In the opinion of the commissioner the only objection to the use of many of the imi- tations is that deception is practiced, the purchaser not receiving what he pays for and isentitled to get, while the dealer in pure and genuine articles s subjected to the disadvantages of an unfair competition. It is not questionable that this double injustice is widely prevalent, and there ought to be no difference of opinion as to the desirability of legislation to remedy it. Granting that the adulterations are generally harmless, that fact does not warrant those who deal- in imitations domanding for them the price of the genuine article, and in all cases where this is done both the buyers and the honest dealers are wronged. The remedy is to be found in requiring that adulterated articles shall be sold under truthful representations as to their com- position, A bill with this abject is before con- gress, but so strong is the opposition of the powerful interests concerned in food adulteration that it may not become a law. State legislation on the subject has also been attempted, but we are not aware that it has been anywhere cessful. At any rate the investig of the commissioner of agricultur that adulterated food is sold where, suc- ations show every- THERE are 1ndications that the New York politicians may make trouble for the next admiuistration, Ixpressions attributed to prominent republicans in that state show they ave apprehensive that General Harrison will act upon his own judgment in making appointments in New York, regardless of the wishes or suggestions of the politicians, in which event it is estimated they will spare no effort to embarrass the admin- istration. “We know all about the western combination against New Yorlk,” one of these politiciansis quoted as saying, “and il it succeeds good bye in 1802, The party will split be- uween east and west, and Harvison will godown if renominated. He will go down, too, if he acts, as we fear he will, in making appointments to suit himself and not his party here. Cleveland tried that and the same result awaits Mr, Harrison.” Both of the factions in New York are said to entertain this feeling, though it is strongest with the Platt following. General Harrison has an- nounced that his policy will be to pro- mote the unity and harmony of the re- publican party, and he will undoubtedly be disposed to give all fatr and proper consideration to the party leaders in New York, but if he foreed to choose between submitting to arrogant dictation and a course disappointing to these leaders, theve ean be no doubt as to which alternative hs will adopt. As to the future, these New Yorkers ought to see that the empire state will not play so important a part in the next presidential election as it did in the last, so that threats of what may be done four years hence need have no present terror for anybody.

But the inhabitants of the national eap- ital are apparently too jeatous to allow Washington to be used as the name of a state. They have alveady entered a protest thai such a designation would tend to confusion. It certainly will be novel and interesting, when the ques- tion of naming Washington Territory comes before congress, to note what action will be taken in the matter, as it is more than probable that the post- oftice authorities will also take a hand in the battle. citizens on- GOVE tion to th his messag ADAMS parting injunc- rislature of Colorado has a word to say about the levying of taxes and the spending of the people’s money which the legislature of Nebraska can well take to heart. “You will be thanked or condemned by the people,™ Governor Adams, “just in proportion as your public ac- tion in influenced by the sentiments of frugality or extravagance.

The officials of both roads deny that they have in any way contributed to embarass the Sioux commission in its endeavors to negotiate with the Indians. They attribute the authorship of this report to rival railroad corporations in Dakota who are trying to injure the Northwestern in the eyes of congress. Whichever statement way be true, the facts nevertheless are clear that the railronds have altogether too much to y with regard to the opening of the ux lands.
