It stands by the official record - of the board. emem———— ‘WyoMING has taken the bits into her n mouth and proposes to make a way ‘lpto statehood despite all obstacles. Jovernor ‘Warren has just issued a calling for an election of logu! constitutional convention September, and the people of the ‘state have entered heart and soul 1nto _the project. There is but one thing fhat stands between Wyoming and tatehood, and that is the requisite jopulation. But where there is a will here is a way, and with push and 0 :yomng will ere long overcome THE RAILROAD OUTLOOK. There are threatening signs in the raflroad situation. We rocently pe- ferred to the attitude of the Cnlm&n & Alton company, regarding the proj d reduction of lumber rates between Chi- cago and Missouri river points, as likely, if adhered to, to bring about a general rate war that would seriously menace the continuance of the inter- state commerce railway association. That corporation has not yet taken any action, and it may have concluded not to doso. Another source of complica- tion is the reduction made by the Bur- lington & Northern in order to meet the rates of the Canadian Pa- cifie, and which may eventuate in compelling other roads to a like course. But the most serious matter is the withdrawal of the Southern Pacific from the transcontinental association, and its reported determination to make independent rates. As this company has becn the mainstay of tho association it is easy to understand what the - effect of its withdrawal must be. The associa- tion will doubtless go to the wall, and all the transcontinental lines will be compelled to reduce rates on through business. The Chieago Tnbune says of the probable consequences of this action that first the Santa Fe road will have to come down in its high charges or it will get uo Pacific through business. Then the Central and Union Pacific will have t0 do the same thing or they will get nothing but local business. Finally the Northern Pacific, however reluctant it may be, will have to follow suit. The reduction of through rates will neces- sarily require that local rates be re- duced, so that apparently we are on tho eve of a general cutting down of freight rates on the transcontinental lines. This situation of affairs intensifies in- terest in the Canadian competition which is responsible for it, and to the investigation of which a senate commit- tee is now addressing its attention. The obvious fact is that this compettion is proving to be a serious matter for the American roads, but on the other hand it is assumed to be beneficial to ship- pers and to the people. How extensive the inroadsof the Canadian Pacific on American commerce have been is shown by the fact that, in the teansportation of the single article of tea, the foreign corporation last year increased its business thirty-seven per cent over the previous year, while the loss of the American roads in this one commodity was twenty-mine per cent. The Canadian Pacific also very ma- terially increased its business in the transportation of wool, while there was a large growth in its west-bound traffic. It is reckoned that eighty per cent of the total exports of cotton goods from the United States to China will go over the foreign line this year. The business thus Canadian Pacific will not allow to pass out of its hands with- out a_struggle, and if it finds it neces- sary to make still lower rates than it has done, in order to retain the traffic, it will undoubtedly do so. One of its officials is reported as saying, with re- gard to the proposed action of the American roads: “They threaten all manner of things in the way of reduced rates, but they forget that we will meet their rates,or those of anyone else. ‘We haven’t worked up our per cent of business for the purpose of giving it away.” The Canadian road enjoys cer- tain advantages which enable it to carry on a competition of this character without suffering the loss that American roads would incur. It is quite as much a public as a private corporation, having been practically built by the Dominion government and designed as well for a military as a com- mercial highway. Its receipts by way of gifts of money, land and credit are unexampled in railroad history. It is exempt from federal and provincial taxation for all time, and in one way and another enjoys so many advantages that 1ts fixed charges per mile are said to be less than one-half of the average tixed charges of the American transcontinental roads for in- terest on their bonded debt alone. This formidable competitor is now seeking to enlarge its opportunities for commanding traffic by applying for the privilege of carrying merchandise in bond between ports of entry or delivery in the United States, or through Cana- dian territory, the application awaiting the decision of the secretary of ghe treasury. If granted, it will add matori- ally to the advantage of the for- eign corporation and correspond- ingly draw from the traffic of American roads. This matter of Cana- dian competition presents a problem in the railroad situation which has become decidedly serious and may >rove trouble- some. gained the THEY CAN NOT COMBINE. The appeal of Mr. Samuel J. Randall to the democracy, echoed by the New York Sun, to “‘get together” prepara- tory to the next presidential contest, is doubtless judicious, bui those who make it can hardly fail to realize how nearly impossible will be compliance with the appeal, Unquestionably the democratic party will have to be harmonized and united if it hopes to be restored to power in 1892, 1t will have greater odds against it at that time than have con- fronted itat any presidential election since 1872, and will require all its strength. At present it is certainly not united, except so far as all demo- crats agree in regarding the course of the administration with disfavor. There are two factions in New York, each as ardently opposed to the other as to the republicans. The same is true of Ohio, where the son of Allen G. Thurman, represonting the free trade element of the party in his desire to be a candidate for governor, is antagonized by ex-Con- gressman Cawpbell as the repre- sentative of the protection ele- ment, The party is not nar- monious in Penusylvania, and generally throughout the mnorthern states there is a lack of unity so marked as to fully warrant the appeal of the democratic protection leader, Mr. Ran- dall, How, then, shall the party ‘‘get to- gether?” Who will make the conces- sion or surrender, necessary to unite sod harmonize the demecracy upon vital principtes? Wili Mr. Cleveland yield to Mr. Hill in New York, or will the governor, with the prestige of vie- tory on his side and the certainty that he has the supportof the large ma- jority of the working democrats of the state with him, surren- der to the ox-president? These men well understand each other’s am- bition, and both have a strong and earnest following. Will either step asido to give the other free way to pur- sue his ambition, and 1f not what is the chance of the party in New York get- ting together? Who will make the neceseary concession for party unity in Ohio, Mr. Thurman or Mr. Campbell? And will Mr. Randall, who sces clearly the necessity of gotting together, go over to thecamp of Carlisle and Mills or they enter into an alliance with the champion of pratection in the demo- cratic ranks? By what process of political alchemy are these discordant olements of democracy to be brought together and continued in a permanent union? Unfortunutsly, neither Mr. Randall nor the Sun suggested the method. But it is not difficult to understand what they would require in order that the party should *‘get together.” They would demand that 1t abandon the posi- tion taken in the last campaign. In other words, that Cleveland, Carlisle and Mills should come to them. This is undoubtedly " out of the question, All present indications are that it is the intention of the leaders who still dominate dem- ocratic opinion to maintain the position in which Mr. Cleveland placed the party and fight the next presidential battlc on the St. Louis platfhrm. The recent address of Mr. Cleveland in New York clearly pointed to this, and he is still acknowledged very generatly as the party’s chief. It is nov at all likely that any circumstances will arise within the next three years to change this intention, for in any event it can not be abandoned without giving up all there is of the democratic cause. The party has no other principle to fight for than that of a radical change in the fiscal pol of the government. As to all othel volicies it proved 1tself in its four years of power to be incapable and inefficient. Assuming, therefore, that the pavty must,und will adhere to the position it held before the country, it can “get to- gether” only by the surrender ot Mr. Randall and his following to the con- trolling elemeat under the leadership of Cleveland, Carlisle and Hill. Are they likely to make such surrender? ‘We think not. THE SCHOOL ELECTION. The election of three of the five can- didates on the non-partisan ticket to the school board is a substantial and gratifying victory. Tt is an evidence of the growing sentiment among the voters that the manipulations of ward caucusses and political conventions are a detriment to the schools, impairing their usefulness by substituting par- tisanship for that unity of action so essential to the growth of our educa- tional system. The election of Messrs. Points and Poppleton, will elevate the tone and character of the board. They possess every de- sirable qualification to manage the great and growing interests of the schools. A corporation handling haif a million of the people’s money every year vequires the carveful and econom- ical management of trustworthy men— men who are above the petty squabbles of politicians, and whose character and standing in the community 1nsures “‘the greatest good to the greatest num- ber.” The result of the election 1s a rebuke to the politicians who sought to drag the cause of education into the gutter for personal ends. It is a warning to the stalwarts that the voters will not tolerate political bias in the board of education. Martin, THE SOURCE OF FLOODS. It seems singalar that Pennsyly Southern Ohio, Maryland, West ginia and the District of Columbia should have been simultaneously vi ited with tremendous floods, which have caused a vast and deplorable loss of life and property. Why those great water courses, the rivers Susquehanna, Patap- sco, Potomac, and, to but a slightly loss degres, the Alleghany, Schuyliill Monongahela and Lehigh, should ail at once roll down volumes of floods, submerge cities and towns, sweep away warehouses and build- ings, and drown hundreds of human beings, can not be explained on the theory of excessive rain fall, There was but lLittle snow fell last winter in the central portion of the eastorn states, and that has, long ago, been melted off the hills and disap- peared. Whence then the vast amount of water which burst forth so suddenly last Friday night, over such a peculiar ares as that in which those rivers take their rise ? 1t is well known that the Niagara river, the visible outlet to the sea of four of the greatest lakes in the world. Superior, Michigan, Huron and Erie, does not carry off one-sixteen -hun- dredth part of the surplus water, that which is not disposed of by evaporation and natural absorption. This estimate is easily arrived at; and, being so, leaves it an open question: Where does that surplus water go? The tendency of streams, east of the Rockies and south of the Forty-fifth parallel, is south; the outlet of the great lakes is the only exception; it flows to the northeust, and it may be possi- ble to find therein a reasonable solution of the probiem. Everybody knows that the crust of the earth, in- stead of being solid 1s as porous asa loaf of bread; and the existence of vast underground bodies of water and large, swift-flowing streams is also well known. Taking a map of Penusylvauia, 1t will be found that the band of territory southeasterly, and at right angles to the centre line of Lauke Erie will in- clude the source of every one of those rivers, which have been doing such damage since last Friday, as well as the known subterravean rivers of that region. A line drawn at right angles from the center of the south shove of Lake Erie will pass directly through Johnstown. g Lake Erie is oypt three hun dred feet higher than Lake Ontario, into which the Niagara dischavges; and its bottom is higher than thg sources of the above- enumorated rivgra., 1Is it not only possible, but probable, that either the overplus enused by the melt- ing snows away up at the headwaters of Superior, or some more southerly obstrudtioh, has cansed a sudden concenttatioh of water under northwestern Pennsylvania, and hence the disasters. It has been suggested that it was not the rainfall or surface pressure which cause the sudden burst- ing of the dam above Johnstown, but that the swelling flood beneath up- heaved und broke it down. May there not be something in it? At least, the theory 1s worth investigation. Tne forthcoming sale of the Minne- apolis & St. Louis railroad now in the hands of a receiver to satisfy the claim of bondholders, is of more than passing interest to Omaha. The road, as its name implies, was originally intended to be a short line from Minneapolis to St. Louis. The projoct, however,, has not materinlized. The proposed line has beeu built from Minneapolis to Fort Dodge, and is operated in conjunction with other roads to Des Moines and St. Louis. II it be sold at chancery sale it is likely to cause spivited competition. The Rock Island has been striving for some time to got possession of the Minneapolis & St. Lo But the fact that the “*Soo™ temn anxious o s»- cure a foothold southern Minnesota and in lowa would indicate that the op- portunity will net be lost for this trunk line to gain possession of the 1mportant feeder. The impression prevails that the *‘Soo' is heading toward Omaha. Should that system absorb the Minne- apolis & St. Louis, the task would be an easy one, and a new and continuous out- let for Nebraska's products would be opencd from the Missouri river to the Atlantic seaboard ponse of the cities of ; for help from the stricken rogions of Pennsyl- vania is a tribute to the generosity of the people of this count Within twelve hours after the news of tho ter- rible disaster was confirined Pittsburg had relief teains and provisions on the way to Johnstown.
