Ouly a few days ago New York entered complaint with the inter-state commis- sion that the railvoads were diserim- foating in favor of Baltimore as a corn ,exporting port. Philadelphia is now calling upon its citizens to improve its barbor facilities if they wiil stop the drift of that city's trade to rival ports. A TRUST TRAGEDY. The dramatic suicide in Paris of M. Rocherau, one of the officials of n great finaneial institution which had been drawn 1nto close relations with the French copper syndicate, will attract world-wide attention to this combina tion for controlling the copper product of the world. It is perhaps the most gigantic monopoly ever ereated, since it is the only combination that has thus far succooded in obtaining control of the world's supply of a useful metal and for a long time controtling the of it the world over. The operations of this syndicate extend vears, but it is only within the last two price over saveral yearsthat it developed into a monopoly of universal extent. A history of this extraordinary ring cannot find place here, and it will be sufficient to say that it secured full e trol of the copper product of the United States and took complets command of the markets of the world. Itraised the 1- price of the metal from time to time uontil it had reached a value before unknown and which if it could have been sustained would have assured the combination cnormous profits. This was done for months, but the syndicate found it- its extreme self unable to perpetuate price, which experienced the fivst break in the latter part of January, which has since been followed by al declines, the fall in less than two months being nearly ninety dollars a ton. The chief cause of the decline wus the steady grrowth of the supply in excess of the de- mand. The miunes for whose output the syndicate had contracted were worked to their fullest capacity, and the pro- duet began to accumulate in the hands of the ring until the excess reached one hundred and twenty thousand tons. On top of this came the withdrawal of Eng- lish buyers from the market and a de- cline in the market value of syndicate sceuriti The course of the monopoly seemed to be hopelessly downward, the hecame alarmed, holders of securities and there was a run on the bank of the Comptoir des Compte. The institution met all demands upon it and averted a threatened panic, but the fact that one of its principal officers hastened to blow his brains out proves that he regarded the situation as desperate. Although the collapse of this monopoly would bring loss to a great many eople who hold its securitios v those in which it is interested. from the standpoint of the general welfare it would be a matter of congratulation. It will possibly be saved, however, from going to pieces by the friendly action of the American copper interests in ducing the contract price to the syndi- The concern of these interests in the continuance of the syndicate can readily be understood, the concession they have made showing that it has been an exceedingly profit- able thing for them. Cheaper copper ought to ba the outcome of this experi- ence, since the monopoly cannot other- wise restore the demand and work off its surplus stock, re- cate twenty per cent. REPUBLICAN METHODS. In two states of the union, West Vir- ginia and Indiana, there v condition of affairs essentially unrepublican. West Virginia gave its electoral vote to the democratic candidate for president, but the vote for governer was in favor of the republican candidate by a small majority. The returns of the county clerks leave no doubt of this, and the legislature having refused or neglected to canvass the returns, the evidence of the returns from the county clerks should be admitted. But when General Goff appeared on March 4, the day designated for the installation of a new governor, with the evidence of his elec- tion and demanded to be sworn 1n, the executive in possession, surrounded by a body guard of his friends, as if pre- pared for any hostile demonstration that might possibly be invited, refused to recognize the claim of the governor- elect. At the same time the president of the senate, on the ground that a vacancy existed in the gubernatorial office, appeared and demanded to be recognized in conformity with the con- stitutional provision temporarily de- volving the auties of the gubernato- rial office on the president of the sen- ate in case of vacancy. But Governor Wilson would not admit that a vacaney existed and refused to surrender the office. There was never a cloarer c of usurption, yet the usurper is still in power. The righiful governor, Gen- oral Goff, has tak. legal steps to ob- tain his rights, but it is by no meaus as- sured that he will secure them from a court vhat is entirely in the hands of his political enemie: The determina- tion that the government of West Vir- ginin shall not pass into vepublican con- trol at this tiine is doubtless shaved by all democratic officials in the state, the judiciary included. The situation in Indiana involves a conflict between the republican gover- nor and the democratic legislature, in which the latter attompts to deny the se governor his coustitutional right to make certain uppointments. Among the many high-handed acts of which In- diana democratic legislatures have been guilty, none ed this in reckless disregard of law, usago and the publ interests, and the motive is confessedly partisan. Of course the governor vefused to submit to such reanted interference with his hts, and by way of retaliation the majority in the legislature proposes an- other piece of gross injustice in refus- ing appropriations for the payment of salaries of public ofcials during the next two yeuars. These examples serve to show to what excesses rockless aud unserupalous par- tisaus may go in the effort to maintain their hold upou power, and suggest that our republican institutions may yet re- quiro stronger safegunrds than at pre ent. There was much for the American citizen to be proud of in the recent transfer of the nationa! administration from the control of one political party to that of another without the least friction or irritation, or a moment’s halt in the buziness of goversmont, butsuch conflicts as those In West Virginis and Iudiana must 1mpress all intelligent men that our system of republican gov- erument is not yot perfected. — THE death of John Ericsson, the fum- ous-enginser, brings to u peaceful close 1 markable career. No man of this century equalled his work in advancing and perfecting stenm navigation. A designor, inventor and bhuilder. a gen- d a ius of unlimited resources, he produc war vessels ¢ such power and destruc tiveness that the monarchies of the old world were patrons of his workshop in New Jersey. His name 1s inseparably linked with the annals of the rebellion. When the confederate ironclan Mer mae was earrying destruction to the union Heet off Hampton Roads, Krics- son's monitor came to the rescue and fought the greatest naval battle of the war. The sinking of the Merrimac produced a storm of joy in the h and the builder was hailed as a for by the people and the government. The ss of the Monitor was the birth of 4 in naval construction, After i devoted himself to no! sa e anew that time sson the construction of ironclads and nu- merous uscful instrumants for naviga- tors, and sank to sleep in his workshop at the ripe age of cighty-six. NE ity counerl has wisely decided to limit public works this year to the needs of the city and the condition of tho treasury. There is no necessity for crowding paved streets into sparsely settled sections and imposing bur- densome taxes on property owner: Eighteen miles of pavement were laid last year, but the work was rushed for the benefit of contractors, and newly graded stroets were paved before th earth settled and gas and water mains laid and sewer connections made. The result of this haste will soon be visible in sunken trenches and countless rut The amount appropriated for public im- provements this year is about one-half that of last year, but if economically oxpended and wisely distributed, it will accomplish as much good as double the sum wasted on hastily constructed and poorly inspected work. UTIE OMAITA complains that the city council of Omaha is not treating the expressmen of that city doing busi- ness in Omaha fairl, There are two sides to this question. Expressmen living in Omaha are obliged to pay a license. Tt is no discrimination, but eminently proper that South Omaha ex; pressmen should be similarly licensed if they do business on the streets of our city. The fact, however, aptly illus- trates the absurdity of a separate municipal government for South Omaha. That city should long ago have been absorbed as a part of Omaha, and it is but amere question of time when the business relations of the two cities will demand for economy’s sake a consolidation of corporate interests, SoME men never know when they are well treated. They mistake indifference for sympathy, assume a melancoly coun- tenance and meekly pose as martyrs. Lx-Governor Dave Butler is the leader of this class in Nebraska. Having in- duced a previous legislature to “‘ex- punge” the record of his impeachment, he appealsto the presentone to compen- sate him for the expenses of the trial— an even 350,000, Such rugged gall is too rich in resources for the climate of Pawnee county. It should be trans- planted in a museum and framed with beveled g S8. OMAIA’S importance as a grain ship- ping center is looking up. Within the vast thirty days fifteen hundred cars of corn have been shipped from our city to Duluth. With the elevator capacity of our city increased and a system of state inspection for grading Nebraska's corn and other products introduced, the prospects of making Omaha one of the leading grain markets of the west would be most promising. COUNCILMAN KASPER'S investigation into the records of the police developes the fact that there is more beef than brains on the force. The evident ambi- tion of the freshmen is to gather into the jail the largest possible number without seriously straining their intel- lectual bump or exevcising ordinary horse sense. Bone and muscle should not be the only qualification of a police- man. DAKOTA'S contribution of a leather medal to Bill Springer is a homely tribute to lofty riotism and self-sac- vifice. Springer trifled with the proud spirit of the Dakotas till the country kicked him into action, and the sou- venir he received appropriately re- counts in letters of gold his glorious deed The Dakotans have a touching way of rubbing irony on a sore spot. the state of for affairs at the county poor farm is with the commissioners, and especially with Tite responsibility Chairman Mount, who has been and is the stand-by of the superintendent and matron, Mr. Mount and a majority of the commissioners have ignored all complaints and shielded the manage- ment in its unsavory methods. THE county commissioners are get- ting deeper and deeper into the mive. The trouble over the iron work in the new vaults, the wretched construction of the new county hospital and the grave charges against the management of the poor house indicate that the board of county commissioners are grossly remiss in their duties.

OTHER LANDS THAN QURS. The Parnell commussion was created by the tories for the sole purpose of crushing the Irish nationsl leader, and staying the progress of home rule. 1t was inspired by forgery, built on fraud sud packed in the in- terest of Ireiand’s cuemies. The original purpose was to prove thut Parnell was the author of the Times’ letters, but the judges conveniently extended the inquiry into the whole honte rule movement and the ramifi- cations of nationalist societios throughout the world. F'rum the incoption to the present moment the witnesses have been the hired tools of the govérament, dissipated adven turcrss spies ind forgers. Nover was such an avalanche of perjury poured outina civilized court. Characterless wretches were publicly hired to bolster up a lost cause and degrade public men in the eyes of the world Such a conspiracy naturally foll of its own weight. The rise and fall of Pigott as the main factor in the trial clearcd the atmosphere of a deluge of Hes, and practically ended the e 50 far as the verdict of the world is concerned. The dismay of the tories is wide spread. Crushéd by the collapse of their main props, theg are now resorting to every expedient to prolong the agony, hoping that relief may come from some sour On the other hand, the Parnellites propose to stretch their advantage to the full limit. Having driven thewr ewemies to death and retire ment, they will mow probe the conspiracy to the bottom and expose its malignant wicked ness. Ina few days the defense will begin Hundreds of unpurchased witnesses are ready to testify to the courageous manhood and houorable motives of the Irish leaders. The result can hardly faii to drive the tories from power, and bring about the long desired and long deferred peace and concord between the Lrish and English people. The statement of the first lord of the British admiralty, made in the houss of commons, that it is the intention of the gov- ernment to greatly iner its naval force by the addition of a number of first-class men-of-war, cruisers aud torpedo boats, at a total cost of over one hundred million dol- lars, and his appoal to the opposition to treat the proposals in a patriotic spirit, is interest- ing and significant, It is undoubtedly a fact that the British government lias been some- what negligent for a number of years regarding the condition of the navy, as well as the coast defenses of England, but tho awakening has some other urgent reason. 1t will be re- membered that the speech of the queen in the assembling of parliament, in speaking of the friendly relations with other countries, observed that waile it was -hoped these would continue, the possibility that they might not was recognized. The proposed ex penditure of one hundred million dollars in increasing the naval power of England, taken in connection with the recent utterance of the queen, is certainly suggestive aud s nificant. Italy is facing a threatencd erisis. Signor Crispi, who a short time ago resigned the premiership, has the urgent request of iing Humbert formed a new cabinet, which has been accepted. But it remains to be seen whether Crispi, great statesman as he un- doubtedly is, will be able to mend matters. The difticalty is financial Italy's credit was long ago exkausted in the markets of the world, and 1t has been unable for some time to negotiate looans except upon usurous terms. Annual deficits have accumulated year by year so emormous a burden of obligations that the payment of in- terest alone has coustituted for some time the chief problem of the kingdom. The population of Italy is about 30,000,000, and these 30,000,000 of Italians pay in round figures taxes to the amount of $330,- 000,000 a year, or nearly 12 a head. Of this amount about $70,000,000, or $2.33 per head of the total populution, is required by the army and navy. Noristhis all. There were at 850 men of the army; and the navy comprised thirty-seven linc:of-battle ships, including eleven wronclads, besides seven ironclads and twelve cruisers on the stocks. This is the army and navy-on a peace footinz. In war, Italy expects to be able to put 2,500,000 men into the field, all more or less trawed to warfare, How caun a nation which devotes $0 large a proportion of its people to the un- productive pursuit of arms to be able to pay taxes! The altornatives presented a tional pankruptey, and not remote, or a wa- terial reduction of the military and naval establishments. The policy to which th government feels itself bound secms to place retrenchment out of the question, and increased taxation will doubtless be the consequence. How long the people will quietly tolerate an increase of burdens it is impossible to say, but they ave alveady rest wve, Altogether the Italian government is in a condition that may without exaggeration be described us desperate. The abdication of King Milan, of Servia, in favor of his son Alexander, may lead to omplications between the Eu- ropean powers. It is said that the situation is regarded with despondency i Austriau official circles. Every effort has been made on the part of Austria to keep King Milan up to the task of kingship, and his abdication causes a fear that Scrvia within a short time will be fully under the Russian wing. Ot course such a situation may casily pre- cipitate a crash in any event, and certainly will if Austria is encouraged by her allies, Germany and Italy, to interfere against KRu sian ascendancy at Belgrade. As for King Milan bimself, he has boon for years the scandal of royalty. The differences between King Milan and Queen Natilie were can mostly by the dissipations of the king. match between them was a lov fair. King Milan was only when, in 1575, on a visit to Russia, he mat Natalie, the daughter of the Russian colonel, Keezko, They were married in October, 1875, and until the beginning of 1377 he was devoted to her, but from that date he bezan, it is said, to neglect her, and soou his alleged some new c The af- infidelitics were the talk of the country. In 1882 he became king and at once set to work, it is said, to find some pretext for a divorce, in order that he might marry thelprincess of some reigning family. The queen formed rival schomes against the king for the sake of her son, to whom she wished to sceure the succession to the throne, Many attempts were made to patch up a truce bitween the couple, but without success, and the queen finally left Servia, She went to Russia and while there the king made an’ unsu asful attempt to steal her son. he moved to Germany and there, through theaid of Bismarck, the king obtained posse: of the boy. The king's first application ¥ot a divorce was refused. The second attegpl at separation was more successful, and @Giybber 24, 1833, the king re- ceived a decree of @ivorce. The new king of Servia is @ lad in his thirteenth year, He s said to be an exceptionally bright, good boy, but the chances now seem to be that by the time hecomes lo yearsof discretion there will be no Serviggor bim to rule. 1t s reported that the death of the king of Holland is againfltninent. Several times within a year siuitar reports have obtained, but in each case the king rallied and ap- peared to regain his health, He may do so now, though it is represented that his condi- tion is worse than ever before. The death of King William III would be an event of no little significance in Kurope, and might lead to very important resuits. Those most in- telligently informed regarding the possiblo conscquences believe that it would be very Likely to preeipitate-a war, arising from the probable scheme of - Germany to scquire @ domination of territory she is thought to covet., Lo any event the dewmise of the old king would be regaried by European poli- ticiuns with & great deal of interest. - L To the young fare Pozzoni's Complex- ion Powder gives fresher charms, W the old renewed youth., Try it.

It has destroyed itself and from the tpmb of infamy into which it has plunged itsclf there can be no resurrection. The “Thunderer’ of England now belongs to history, It has lost honor, power, prestige and profit, and it will perish unlamented at home or abroad. Its place as a newespaper has long been bet- ter filled by more widely read and more suc- cessful journals; and it can now go down with all its iustrous achievemens of its better days without uny taking pause to note or re- gret its fall, and the great leader and the great cause which it attempted to overthrow by desperation in erime will emerge from the contest with victory hastened by the mad- ness of their focs.
