Yet the discouraging re- ports sent out may be no more nor less than oxaggerations to affect wheat spec- ulation. chigan EMBOLDENED by the success of Mass: chusetts, Ponnsylvania and Rhode Is- land, the people of Kunsas are preparing to throw off the galling yoke of prohibi- tion. The time is considered ripe for agitating resubmission. Tne boavd appointed to arbitrate the differences between the Union Pacific and the engineers and firemen, is com- posed of men thoroughly competent to weigh the claims of both sides and ven- der a just and satisfactory decision. ¢ motor company promises to have s road in operation by July 4. That should be a big enough attraction with- out any further demonstration on that day to bring out every man, woman and child in Omaha to see the phenomenon. AND now the county commissioners are confronted with abill of two hun- dred und fifty dollars a month for rent of the ramshackle poor house. Hascall spread his net with characteristic sly- ness, and the commissioners with their eyes wide open walked into its meshes. COUNCIL BLUFFS haslet the contracts to pave a number of her residence streets with brick. This will give Omaba the opportunity of judging the worth of brick for paving purposes. It is only on light trafiic streets, however, that brick can be safely laid. THE repair of the aprons at all street crossings has been ordered, and should be attended to immediately. - The un- sightly wooden aprons, splintered and broken, ure not only a menace to life and limb, but are apt to give strangers a poor impression of our stroots. WicmTA and other towns of south- western Kansas are calling loudly for railroads to the north, which shall re- lieve them from the exactions of Kan- sas City. They look to Omaha for help because Kansas City has been a false friend to them erippling their industries and retarding their growth. A MANUFACTURING company has just been incorporated iu this city for the purpose of making electric motors, cars, and other electrical appliances, which in time gives promise of develop- ing into an important establishment. Omaha is evidently pushing her way to the front in the manufacturing line. —— THE designers of the union depot ap- parently exhausted their skill in sketch- ing the viaduet approaches, In strength, beauty, breadth and length, elegance of detail and prospective cost, the vinducts display a versatility of im- agination never equalled in these parts. The depot itself is a mere annex to the old cowshed, It bears no comparison 10 the union depot av Kansas City and Denver or even the Northwestern depot at St. Paul, —r—— IN reply to the circulars sent out by Govornor Larrabee, of ITowa, to several thousaud shippers aud jobbers of the state for the purpose of eliciting their views as to the effoct of recent railrond legislation, the answers received have been quite satisfactory. Less than fourteen per cent of the shippers are reported to be opposed to the gover- nor's policy, the majority being well satisfied with the rates as fixed by the railroad commission. This would clearly indicate that the people of Towa sustain their governor in his de- termined fight for equitable rates and fair treatment. Since the operation of the new turiff sheots on probation the railroad agitation in lowa has guieted down, and the guestion gives promise of & permanent and satisfactory setile- went. STATE DEVELOPM Nearly every nctive progrossive com- munity in the state is represented in the development convention now in ses- sion in this city, Itis a gathering of men who have helped place Nebr: in a proud position among the states of the union. The objects and aims of the convention arc to devise ways and means to protect and improve the com- mercial interests of the state and en- courage the settlement of Wo country. The progress of the state during the past ten y has been nar 'rom a population of four hundred ana fifty-two thousand in 1880 it swelled to seven hundred and. forty thou- sand in 1885, and to-day contuins not less than one million and a quarter people. - ‘Lhie ““desert’ has dis- appeared, if it ever existed outside of the maps, and in its stead are thousands of thrifty settlors, comfortable homes and scores of enterprising towns. Five thousand miles of railrouds traverse nearly every county, against eighteen hundred miles ton ve baye multiplied and every business shows a marked Agriculturally the development of N, braska has been equally rapid, rising step by step until she now ranks fifth among the corn producing states of the union. Last year the improved acreage auggregated nine and a half million acres. of which four and a quarter million acres were planted to corn. Thirteen and a qudrter million acves yet remain unimproved, an area larger than Connecticut, Massa- chusetts and Delaware combined, or Vermont, New Jersey and Rhode Island, and capable of supporting from two to three million people. There’s no better evidence of the progress of Nebraska than the record of Omaha’s advance in a decude. With a scant thirty thousand population in® 1879, it has grown to an active, enterprising city of one hun- dred and twenty-five thousand people. Its manufacturing and commorcial strength wus thon a mere fragment of what it is to-day. Stock yards and packing houses were net thought of, pavements and sewers and waterworks were still a dream, and the town drifted rudderless with the current. To-day forty miles of paved streets penetrate every section of the city. Titls have been levelled and hollows filled, and sixty miles of sanitary and surface water sewers lnid. A magnificent sys- temn of waterworks supplies every want in that line. Sixty-four miles of elec- tric motor, horse and cable street railways connect su- burbs with the busin center. Omaha has sprung in five years to third rank asa stock market and packing center, having four of the largest pa ing houses in the country, giving em- ployment to tivé thousand men, and ro- quiring an average of eightcen million dollars a month in 1888 to handle the business. Twelve banks, with over five millions of capital, attend to the finan- cial wants of the metropolis, and the wealth of the people is shown in jonul bank deposits, aggregating ight and a. half million dollars. Ninety factories, with six million dollars capital, employ six thousand five hundred hands, requiring four bundred thousand dollars a month to pay them. Twenty million dollar invested in buildings during the four y Bighteen million dol were paid to farmers for stock last ye: and three and a hall million bushels of grain hundled. The jobbing interest of the city amounts to over sixty millions a year, divided between two hundved and seventy-seven firms, and twenty- eight hundred business firms represent the retail trade of the city. Fifty pub- lic schools employing two hundred and sixty wachers, besides a scove of private and denominational schools, look after the intellectual interests of the rising gonevation, and eighty-six churches at- tend to the spiritual needs of all, This is a composite picture of the metropolis which bids welcome to the representatives of the business intorests of the state. It isacompact counter- partof the growth and development of Nebraska. To proteet and increase the interests of both is worthy of the best efforts of the convention. sk clous, incrense. the last FORAKER RENOMIN The Ohio republic aominated Governor Poraker on the second ballot. He is now serving his second term, and in naming him for u third term the republicans of Ohio have disregarded the precedent of both pur- ties in that state, THe exigencies of the situation, however, seemed to de- mand the stalwart and vigorous lender- shipof Foraker in the coming cam- paign, and although there were half a dozen excellent men presented to the convention, and the governor had said that he did not desire the nomination, after a complimentary vote to other candidates he carried off the honor by a majorl which clearly showed how strong the necessity for his leadershiv was felt to be. Governor Foraker represents young vrepublicamsm of Ohio, and this was en thusiastic in his favor. It gave no heed to the third term objec- tion, and it insisted that Foraker had no right to refuse a demand of the party after it had twice honoved him with its support and confidence. This evidently impressed the governor, since for some time before the convention he was silent, and thus tacitly left the issue in the hands of his friends. Those opposed to him, as they saw tho trend of affairs, sought to draw Congress- man MecKinley into the field, but he declined to allow his name to go be- fore the convention. He is a candidate for speaker of the next house of repre- sentatives, with prospects not the least favorable among those whose aspira- tions are 1u that direction. No repub- lican in Ohio is more popular than Major McKinley, and had he eonsented to go before the state convention as a candidate for goveruor it is quite possi- ble he would have received the nomina- tlon, and perhaps made a stronger can- didate than Foraker. Under the cir- cumstanees, however, he took the proper course. The failure to induce McKin- ley to vun left the field clear for Foraker without the slight- cst effort om his part. The gov- bruor has some eucmies, but his course TED. n convention re- the in this matter appenrs to have been en- tirely fair and honorable, and the full party strength ought to rally to his support. No ome can quastion that he has made an able exccutive, and the thrice-necorded honors of his party should win him friends rather than make him enemies. The campaign in Ohio promises to be exceedingly vigorous and intoresting. Just now the demdorats are not ha monious. y are divifled on the tarift question, but it is probable that they will “get together” by the tims their stato convention moets in August and prepare to make a Nard fight for the stat The indicati re thay ex- Congressman Campbell will Dbo the gubernatorial candidate, w which ever Governor Foraker will a foeman more worthy of his steel than was the democratic candidate of two yoares ng The advantages of thé situation ave with the republicans, it no seripus dis- affections oceur, but obviously this is a danger not to be lost sight of. TOO MUCH SIDE-SHOW. There is danger that the movement to organize and perfect a week of at- tractive amusement in Omaha for next fall will be overloaded with side-shows. Division and destruction ave threatened. Catch-penny affaivs nre springing up and individual greed usurps the public good, It will not require extraovdinary ex- ortions to bring large erowds of people to Omnha. The civy itself isa perma- nent attraction to the people of this and surrounding states. The main essentinl to success i unity of action—a working together of all forces for the common weal. It will not do to scatter the attractions in the four corners of the city. If we are to have races and other amusements at the fair grounds, nnd a so-calted expo- sition at another part, it is important that the managers should ork in har- mony with the “*Merchants’ Week” as- sociation. Unless they get together and formulate n aetinite plan of action, the vesult will be unsatisfactory 1f not inju- rious to the city Three years ago the fait tion operated separately. advertised the Omaha and exposition, thoy were tirely distinet in location and prices The vesult was that visitors were deceived and expressad their contzinpt for tho gouge game in plain words, A repetition.of that plan will keep thous- ands away from the city this year. Theve is no renson why a week of amusements cannot be carried toa sue- 1 close in Omaha. In addition to a grand central exhibit at the fair grounds, a variety of public displs should be areanged for the cyenings. The success of a feeble imitation of the Mardi Gras, organized on short no- tice three years ago demonstrated what can bo accomplishod by organiza- tion and definite purpose, Great sults can be gained this year by similar energetic action. It 18 not necessary that the older heads should do the work. By placing the working dotails in young, enthusiastic han 1 sup- porting them with counsel and means, surprising results can be accomplished.

The wing of the democracy which acknowledges the leadersbip of Samuel J. Randall dwindled to very small pro- portions in tho last congress. There is some reason to believe that the Penn- sylvania congressman willhave a larger following in the nest tongress, and there are already intimations that he intends making an effort: to regain the position of leader of the house, which he long held. Mr. Randall was the first to suggest that the imperative duty of the democratic party to ‘“‘get to- gether,” and he has since said some things that have very plainly indi- eated the lines on which he would hay it got together. These will not ho ac- ceptable to the Carlisle-Mills wing, but tariff legislation 1 the new congress will probably be left wholly with the ve- publicans, thus avoiding democratic an- tagonisms on this subject. and Mr. Randall, it is intimated, will to concentrate the party on another issuc in the management of which his us- cenden cy might become eusy. There are two matters suggosted as principal features of = the plan which Mr. Randall is believed to be contemplating. One of theso ve- lates to the proposed. change of the rules, to which he has already signified his hostility. The other reférs to the supposed purpose of the ropublicans 1o adopt some measures for the bettp ulation of federal eloctions in thesouth, The aim of Mr. Randall, it is thought, will be to impress the democrats of the house with the superior importance of theso matters over revenue questions, and if he can accomplish this his ambi- tion of leadorship will be attained, for no man on the democratic side of the house is so well equipped as he to conduct a battle where parliamen- tary devices must play the most important part, Once having taken the sceptre from Carlisle and Mills, and been again enthroned as the leader of the democratic side of the house, the Rundall wing of the democracy would become the potential wing, and its chief, whom the dominant elemont has sought to humilinte and deny, three yours hence muy play & "Gonspicuous part in determining who shall be the vresidential standurd bearer of the party. There can be very little doubt that Mpr. Randall was not the least bit dis. turbed by the outcome of the last na- tional campaign, It was fought by his party on lines which he did not ap- prove, and besides he had no interest in the political success ot Mr. Cleve- land. If he should ‘again ‘come into possession of his lost power of leade ship, and more improbable things have happened in politics, the friends of the ex-president would have a formidable foe in their own party to overcome three years hence. This consideration may be fouud a troublesowe barrier in the sook g way of Mr: task he is himself, Rendall accomplishing the ved to have laid out for PHIRM 1R Gl Y. The pregident has appointed Mr. William \‘ v Phelps, of Now Jorsoy, minister t rmany. Mr. Phel turaed from@erlin last Monday, hay- ing with him a copy of the coment regarding jon renched by the con- ference of @fiich he was a member. It has hefF foreshadowed that this appointme suld be made, and while it will therefore cause no surprise, it will give very goncral satisfaction. Fow men are so well oquipped by educa- tion and long experienco in public life for diplomatic duties as Mr. Phelvs. He has been eight years in congross, and a considerable part of this time he was o member of the house commit- tee on foreign affairs. In this e he made himseif thoroughly f: with the foreign policy of the govern- ment and-nequired large knowledge of diplomatic ushge. He has also had ex- perience in diplomacy, having been minister to Austria in 1881-2, while as one of the commissioners to the Berlin conference he must have acquired valu- able insight into diplomatic methiod For at least a dozen years Mr. Phelps hias been prominent in republican poii- tics, and during this period one of the unchest friends of Mr. Biaine. Ho was delogate-at-large from N Jer- to the nattonal republican con- ventions of 1880 and 1834, in hoth of which his influence was exerted for the nomination of M. Blaine. Undoubtedly no one would be more acceptable to Germany than Mr. Phelps, whose course in the Borlin con- ference can not have failed to commend him as well to the respect of the Gee- mun government as to that of our own government. He will succeed a gen- tieman, Gec Pendleton, of Ohio. whose ability and character won the eom of German diplom: officiuls, and who has made a creditasle record.

Cropsoy, of Ogden, Utah, formerly one of Lincoln's citizens and busi ness men, It sooms that whon the strifo was on for tho location of the Wesleyan univer ity, Cropsey, who was then engaged in the real estato business here, cast net into the waters and helved those favorablo to Lincoin catch the prize, But whon the show down came—the division of the spoils— the cruel war bogan. Tnr Bek represonta- tive lit upon an open letter, addressed to Dr. Creighton, chaucellor of' tho university, dated Owden, Utab, and written by J. C. Cropsey under date of May 80. At groat length ho airs his grievance and takes oc casion to muke a number of highly sensutional allegations, which savor too wmuch of attemptod blackmail to admnit of their being repeated in the public prints, Contradicting Cropsey's denouncement comes the statement of Chancellor Creigh- ton, through his attorney, J. L. Doty, whom he 'authorizes to speak for him, Tie Bk representative having sought a porsonal in- terview with the chancelior. The chancellor expressed a willingness to undergo the newspaper inquisition, but said that Mr. Doty could speak for him advisedly. Dr. Creighton, howover, pronounced Crop- s0y’s allegations a brazen attompt at black- mailing, and with a snap of his_fingers said, 1 do 1ot care two conts for them.” Doty tells the story as follows ““Ihe trouble between Rev.
