P. FEIL, Notary Public, Tin observance of the Washington inaugural centennial cut a wide swathe in the bank clearings of the mercantile cities of the country last week. Omaha, despite the holiday, shows up an in- crease as compared with last year. ToWA is ambitious to become a great sugar state and wants government aid to develop the sorghum sugar industry. It may be questioned, however, whether the business can be made profitable, in comparison with corn growing and cattle raising, for which lowa is pre- eminently adapted. CONGRESSMAN DORSEY proposes to entertain a number of his brother con - gressmen this summer with a trip through the west. Tt istimely that men who represent the country in congress should acquaint themselves by a por- sonal visit with the progress of this section of the country. MANAGERS of western railroads have been summoned before the inter-state commerce commission, at Washington, to answer certain questions as to the methods of paying commissions on the saleof tickets. Interesting revelations may be oxpeeted when the commission applics the thumbscrews to these officials. —_— Mi. ANDR i is said to have contributed fifteen hundred dol- lars to help along some striking work- men. This would ordinavily be looked upon as a highly meritorious act. The fact, however, that thesc workmen were the employes of an iron mill in compotition with his own puts a novel aspect upon Mr. Carnegie’s practical sympathy with workingmen, PRHIADELPIIIA i8 seriously consider- ing the plan of building underground conduits and compelling the varions telegraph and telephone companies to string their wires through them at an annual rental to the city. With New York, Chicago, Philudelphia and other lending cities of the country insisting on underground wires, the time is not far distant when Omaha will follow their example. Iris constantl ated that the building of lines west of the one hun- dredth meridian is for the present nt least to be abandoued. Dispatches from ‘Wyoming, nevertheless. bring the in- formation that vival railroads are dis- puting every foot of the territory in the heart of the Rockies. The truth is, the ronds already in Wyoming dare not for a moment relax their vigilance for fear that a competitor will cut into their territor Tue farmers and taxpayers of Platte county are to be congratulated upon having a phenomenal county troasurer. He has voluntarily paid into the treas- ury a surplus of fees collected, The good example of Platte county’s tre urer should be followed without delay by the treasurers of every county in Ne- braska. For it follows as an axiom that what is true of Platte county is likely to be true of other counties, and the y wuke up all along the line nd an investigation of the ree- The incorporation of an English com- pany with a eapital of a million for the purposo of developing the beet sugar fndustry at Welllleet, Nebraska, wili attract universal attention, It is the evident purpose of the company to en- guge iu the industry of beet growing and sugar manufacture on a scale suffi- cient to insureits success. It is claimed that the sandy soil and water power about Wellfleet are admirably adapted tothe business. [f the prospect is as promising as the company would have us believe, Nebraska will gain a most important industry. DAKOTA evidently enjoys a high rat- ing in the centers of finance. The re- ceut sale of territorial bonds was with- out precedent in the history of the public eredit of that or any other terri- tory. University bonds drawing inter- est at four per cent running twenty years, but payable at the option of the territory after ten, sold at a premium of threo and one-half per cent. Other four per cent bonds commanded a pre- mium of five and one-quarter per cent, The active competitipn for the purchase of these bouds is eyidenee of the confi« dence of fuvestors in Dakota’s publio credis and varied cesources. A NEBRASKA IDEA EhSEWflERE.' It should be very gratifying to every citizen of Nebraska to know that the observance of Arbor day, in the states which have wisely imitated her exam- ple, has this year been more general and zealous than ever before. There is evidently a growing and widening interest in this Nebraska idea which gives assurance thatata not very re- mote time it will have become extended to every state in the union, and will commana the enthusiastic inter- est not merely of scattered com- munities, but of every commun- ity where there is a pre- ponderance of intelligence, refinement and the finer and gentler sentiments. It is no longer the practical benefits to be derived from this annual tree-plant- ing which alone commend the observ- ance, but the beauty, the poetry, and the refining and ennobling influence of the “idea” have impressed themselves upon the people. Arbor day has been found by those who have given it proper observance, to be an occasion on which all can find pleasure, which may be made to appeal with delightful and improving effect to the sentiment and tho imagination of both young and old, and the fruits of which are an ever-present and permanent in- centive to maintain the beautiful and interesting observance. In New York and other states Arbor day this year enlisted the interest of the school children more generally than ever before. And this is growing to be the most delightful feature of the day— the grand army of American boys and girls in the public schools of the nation devoting one day in the year to setting out trees, under whose shade and shel- ter they and- their successors will find pleasare and protection in the years to come, while contributing to practical benefits of immeasurable value. Arbor day was indeed a great conception, and Nebraskans have the rightto feel proud of having given it to the country and feel gratitied that the “idea” has taken firm root in many states and is annually spreading. VERY SMALL BUSINESS. The attempt to deride and villify Governor Saunders because he has seen fit to take an active interest in post- office location 1s very small businiss for great newspapers to engage in. Gov- ernor Saunders had as much right w go to Washington as Judge Crounse, John B. Furay, Jim Creighton and John A. Harbach. He had a right to go there as a citizen, either in his own interest or as a representative of other property owners who are interested with him. He has a right to remain therve as long as he fecls able to pay his hotel bills. His presence at Washington is not an offense against public morals or a menace to good government. He may even go so far as to take din- ner with the president and play peek- aboo with the president’s grand-daugh- ter, who happens also to be his own grand-child. And so far as Omaha is concerned, she ought to feel proud of tho fact that one of her honored citi- zeus enjoys u relationship o the presi- dent and his family. We have exhibited a great deal of pride because the father of one of our citizens was at one time a partner of the father of General Grant in the hide and harness business, av Galena. We have even thrown up our hats when this Omaha citizen was taken into partuership by President Grant’s brother as post trader at Fort Laramie. ow has it como to such a pass that a man who has been governor of Ne- braska for seven years and United States scnator for six is to be lam- pooned and blackguarded because he has free entre at the white house? And one of the blackguards who is con- stantly flinging mud at Governor Saun- ders never refers to him excepting as Pather-in-law Saunders, as if it were a disgrace that his daughter had married the son of Benjamin | And this conceited and greedy booby has the insolence to intimate corruption and dishonesty in connection with the senator’s course in the postoflice loca- tion. Were he a manly man with a grain of common decency in his make: up, he would realize Yhat he1sthe last mun to talk about the greed of Father- in-law Saunders. How about Father-in-law Crounse Was he entirely disinterested when he joined Son-in-law in calling that post- oftice meeting in a city in which he does not reside? Was he guilty of reason when he went to Washingtont o help his son-in-law sell one-fourth of the Planter’s*house block to Uncle Sam for two prices,and at the same time was trying to double the value of his rookery across the street? If the shoe fits one father-in-law, why is it a misfit on the other? And why should a man who helped to obstruet the erection of a sity hall for three years kee up his howl against Senator Saunders and others hecause the postofiice has not been located within sixty days after Harrison had become president. Some people never know how small they ap- pear until their measures have been taken in public vie rrison. 11E OHIO MAN. The Ohio man was once, and not very long ago, a powerful factor in national affairs, but he appears to have entirely lost his grasp. At any rate, the present administration scems disposed to get along without him, With the exception of the appointment of Mr. Halstead, no citizen of Ohio has received preferment for any important position from P dent Hurrison, unless the office of sec- ond assistant postmaster-general be classed as important. Tk is not due to the fact that Ohio men have been less modest than usual in urging their claims to con- sideration. They bave been quite as ardent in seeking office as those of othor states, The explanation lies in the fact that the factional conflict in Ohio has made it necessary for the ad- ministration, both for its own peace and asa suggestion to harmony in that state, to iguore the claims of both fac- tlons, It appoars that the politicians aro boginning to worry over the situ- ation, whioh showa the wisdom of the edminlstration’s course, for only in this way oan they be brought to osi- JEE: TUESDAY MAY 7 1889, mako poace with each other. If they can be forced to harmon- ize there is overy reason to believe the administration will give Ohio all the recognition she can reasonably claim, but harmony there must be. It is os- sential not only in order to prevent any issue between the administration and any element of the party in Ohio, but it is absolutely necessary to enable the re- vublicans of that state to win in the election of next fall, which wili be an extremely important contest, involving the election of a United States senator to succeed Senator Payne. The repub- licans of Ohio are making a very sori- ous mistake in quarreling among them- solves, and the disciplinary policy of the administration regarding them is eminently wiso THe fact t cretary Noble, at the banauet of the Spanish-American commercial union in New York, took the ground that in order to build up trade with South America it will be necessary for the government to sub- sidize stenmship lines, suggests that this is the policy which the adminis- tratiog may urge. Auother speaker on this occasion, indeed, went so as to say that he violated no confidence in stating that the president is in favor of granting government bounties to steamship lines, but no man’s aun- thority should be taken as to the president’s views on this subject. The obvious conclusign, however, is that the subsidy question is likely to oceupy prominent attention iu the next congress, whether by instigation of the administration or not. he forces in favor of steamship bounties are evi- dently mustering for the conflict, and such expressions as werve made at the Now York banquet of the Spanish- American commercial union must be regarded as the notes of warning. It is well, therefore, that the public mind shall begin to prepave itself for a vigorous discussion of the subsily question. ADVERTISEMENTS in ready-made, hand-me-down newspapers are worth no more than street dodgers and cir- culars. Papers that are given away are seldom read and hardly ever appreciated. As advertising mediums they are a sham and a fraud. This is well known to expert busine: men who have made a study of adver- tising mediums and explains why somo papers in these parts that circulate their papers by throwing them into the front and back yards of people who do not want them cannot procure patron- age for their advertising columns at any price. Merchants who pay money for printers’ ink want to see results, and they usually keep themselves well informed as to where their investments will bring largest returns. THERE is probably a good deal of truth in the report that the Sioux are ready to give up nearly eleven million acres of their reservation lands. From all appearances, little opposition will be made to the signing of the agree- ment to be laid before the Indians by the Sioux commission. The new bill 18 eminently favorable to the Indians. Tt grants them even more than what they have demanded. Barring unforseen emergencies, the reservation will be opened for settlement by the president within a comparatively short time. The lands of the Sioux are well adapted to the rasing of corn and stock. They are thoroughly watered, and compare favorably with those in the best agri- cultural counties of Dakota.

OFFICIAL RAILROAD INSPECTION. — Druggists Who Sell Whisky on Sun- day—New Enterprises Springing Up — Notaries Public, Su- preme Oourt, and Notes. 1020 P Streer, LiNcoLy, May 6, Some gentlemen from Plattsmouth were in Lincoln, to-day, who unfold a scheme that now tickles the imagination of the citizens of that place. In aword it is this: Kngincors report thata canal can be built from Codar creek, fourteen milos wost, into the city that will provide a water power that will rival _the noted falls of St. An thony at Minncapolis; and, moreover, the initiatory steps have been taken for its con- struction, In conversation with Tk Bee ropresentative the gentlemen stated that the B. & M. railroad company stood ready 10 aid the enterprise, and would co-operate with the city as $00h as it could run erincors over the route to further test its practicability. There soems to be no doubt in their minds but that it would prove to be a winning venture, and that it wonld realize before cold weather. With water power they sen- sibly arued that there would be opportu nities for manufacturing establishinents without a rival in the state. It is learned, also, that the canal can ve constructed with little more expense than the average price per mile of railway construction. Cap italists stand ready to back the cntorprise, and it is understood that as sonn as prelun inarics can be arranged, the permancnt sur vey will be made and work commenced. It is quite provable that the metropolis of Cass county has a bright future before her. At least “Poor old Plattsmouth will not bo the cry wuch longer.” LINCOLX BUREAU OF Trre OMAmA s, } Change of Route.
