Hornronrs pile on horror’s head.” The elements are determined to wipe the last vestige of Johnstown off the face of the earth. Tt wbing conundrum in Chicago just now is, “Will Sullivan Squeal?” Much depends on the manner in which Kilrain handles his dukes. Tue great blocks which promised to rise around the new postoffice site have not yet materialized, even on paper. It is supposed they are: now waiting the rosult of the Union depot question. THr appeal for additional aid for the Johnstown sufferers indicates that some of the collections have been glued to the collectors. It is hardly possible that the two million dollars, or more, collected throughout the country hus been turned in and expended. THE county commissioners now pro- pose to raze the old poor house and so end the squabble over its possession. This recalls the incident in the life of P. T.Barnum, when that great show- man notified his partuer that he pro- posed to shoot his half of an clephant whose joint ownership had been a con- stant source of dispute. IF ANOTITER jury is to be empaneled at the cxpense of t his county to try the Brennan-Ragan bogus claim for con- structing the city hall foundation, the sheriff should be directed to place the jury in the center of the ruin, for which Brennan & Co. have drawn $38,000 of the city's money, and keep the jury on the grounds until it has reached a ver- dict. Tug large and enthusiastic audience whnich witnessed the graduation of the High school class evidenced the extent and warmth of the popular feeling for Omaha’s favorite school. Young and old viea with each other in honoring the fortunate fifty, who furnished grati- fying proot of intellectual progress, and of the thoroughness of our public school system. The class was an honor to the city, to the teachers and to the mem- bers. e discovery of fraud and crooked- ness in paving material and workman- ship emphasizes the demand for honest, competent men for inspectors, The fuct that the paving specifications have been ignored proves that the inspectors were totally incompetent or wilfully negligent of thoir duties, There has been too much political and personal favorivism in the selection of inspect- ors, and it is time to call a halt and place none but honest men on guard. The State Development association adopted a timely resolution to the effect that among the evils affecting the good name of Nebraska abrond is the pres- ent unsatisfactory and unreliable sys- tem of assessment and taxation. The resolution was unanimously and enthu- siastically endorsed, reflecting full well the sentiment of lending business men, If the association would take it upon itself to agitate taxation reform until it can create a strong public feeling throughout the state in favor of a radical change 1n our revenue laws it will ren- der invaluable service for Nebraska. MR. Frep NYE hankers after more notoriety. He has issued a bombastic challenge to Tie B: to compure cir- culations between one of its daily edi- tions and his sample-copy balloon, accept such a challenge would be si making one’s self supremely ridicu- lous. We refer him, however, to the figures adduced from the census of eity subscribers served by carrier delivery. That census was taken with greny care during the past month, when sample copies of Mr. Nye’s sheet were being distributed on trial without stint. And yet we find by the returns of the can- vassers that THE Dei delivers fi papers to regular subscribers by carrvier in Omaha for every copy of the Repub- lican delivered by ecarrier in the same terrvitory. In view of this significant fact, Tiie BEE leels content to let Mr, Fred Nyo keep his boomlet up until it bursts, like many another bubble, JUSTICE BALKED. Now York again demonstrates its in- ability to adequately punish political rascality. - The decision of the state comptroller that there is no money in the treasury to defray the expenses of the trials practically ends the cases against the boodle aldermen and adds another to tho long list which have made the democratic ad- ministration of the Kmpire state a stench in the nostrils of the country. Nover since the palmy days of Tweea was there such a riot of corruption and extravaganco as marked the entrance of Jake Sharo into the politi- cal whirlpool of New York in 1884, He bought the city officials like so many cattle and securad a franchise for a street railway on Broadway over the veto of the mayor and the united opposition of press and the people on the street affected. Other corporations offered the city princely royalties for the franchise, but Sharp preferred to shower his favors on the aldermen and their hackers, It the cheapest and ensiost way to defeat oppo- sition, and he succoeded. Such flagrant disregard of honov and deceney and mu- nicipal rights roused popular indigns tion, and Sharp was driven to the peni- tentiary and finally to the grave. Of the twenty-five men participating in the rascally conspiracy, throe have gono to the higher courts, one is in juil, two are cut on bail and the re- mainder are in exile in nada and elsowhere. From beginning to end every effort was made to shisld the culprits. D followed delays. Sympathy ha justice. The courts and prosecuting at- torneys ignored public demands for vrompt trials, and frittered aw resources of the state in farcic tompts to redeem the honor of the city. Friends of the corruptionists made their case their own and succeeded in forcing the question quictly into poli- tics, and electing to office men pledged to leniency. The election of Colonel Fellows as prosccuting attorney wus a substantial victory for the boodlers, and the result shows that they were not mistaken in their man. No honest attompt was made by him to remove the obstacles in the puth of justice. On the contrary, he in- creased them by permitting witnesses to escape and delaying trial under vari- ous pretexts until the public became disgusted and indifTerent. The decision of the state comptroller in refusing to turn over the money voted by the state legislature to defray the expenses of prosecution, is the last act in the conspiracy to give the boodlers their freadom. As a specimen of politico-legal jugglery, it is worthy. of a place in democratic cumpaign liter- ature. The intent of the law could not be misconstrued, but that vigilant of- ficial discovered that the act limited the use of the money to the prosccution of “persons holding office under the laws of the state within such county.” None of the boodlers were in office, therefore none of the money could be used 1n the prosecution of men for crimes committed previous to the passage of the law. The outecome of the scandal is a dis- grace to the city and state. It encour- uges public rascality and places a pre- mium on ofticial dishonesty. UNDER NO OBLIGATIONS. General Manager Kimball is quoted by a local contemporary as dec that it is a mistaken opinion that the Union Pacific is under any obligations to build a union depot in Omaha. Mr. Kimball certainly cannot have been correctly roported. Nobody knows better than he that the Union Pacific railway company has never cairied into effect the contract made with this city with regard to transfer facilities. 1t is o matter of record that the city of Omaha issued two hundred thousand dollars in bonds nearly twenty years go for the purchase of the present Union Pacific depot grounds. These grounds were donated to the road, to- gether with two hundred and fifty thou- sand dollars in bonds issued by Douglas county, conditioned on the maintenanco of proper traas- fer facilities to carry on the term- inal business of the Union Puacific at Omaha, The managers of the road pledged themsclves and their company to build a grand union depot at Omaha that would accommodate all conneeting roads. nce these bouds were issued the interest alone aggregates three-quar- ters of a million, or a total of twelve hundred thousand doliars, principal and interest, levied on Omaha tax-payers to secure transfer [acilities which the Union Pacific up to this date has failed to provide. In the face of such an exhibit Mr. Kimball will havdly dare assert that the road is under no obligations to build a dopot for Omaha. Incidentally wo may as well vemark, that adding insult to injury the Union Pacific not only has failed to give us the depot we have long since paid for, but actually cxpended the proceeds of the quarter million of honds voted by this county in the erection of a union depot on tho other side of the river, to boom Sidney Dillon’s roul es- tate speculations near Spoon lake. It is very disagrevable to recall this chapter of “ancient history,” but it is very pertinent at this time. Tre oration of Hon, Edward J Phelps, ex-minister to Bngland, bafore the Phi Beta Kappa ussociation, of Hai vard college, touching on the nocessity of a distinctive American policy in in- ternational affairs, will ato consid- erable interest both 1n Amevica and in Europe. It is quite evident that My, Phelps leans strongly toward M Blaine’s ideas of a definite and positive policy in dealing with foreign nations and with naval power sufticient to back it up. Whatever faith Mr. Phelps puts in the efficacy of arbitration as a means of settling international difficulties, he cvidently believes that arbitration is effective only in the settiemeont of com- puratively unimportant disputes. Where the lion ana the lamb come to- gether to diseuss qucstions of principle or honor or where the blond has been stivred and passions arvousad, the only arbitration the liop is likely to listen to is when the lamb submits"to his will of scandals | or falls & prey to his superior strength, As a last resort, Mr. Phelps does not believe that arbitration for the present, at lensty 48 practicable. Mr. Phelps, by his experience as minis- ter to England and as a_close observer of continental polities, is certainly in a position to speak authoritativelyon the subject. His plea, therefore, for a fixed American policy is likely to strengthen the faith of our statesmen in the course which they have already outlined in that direction. ON EVERY hand there are evidences of industrial activity throughout the state. Progress and push aré the watch- words, Scores of energetic towns are aglvortising their resources and offering tempting inducements tooutside capital. Factories of various kinds ave under way. others are at work reducing the products of the farm to a marketable standard, There is no boom in the building line, but a steady substantinl growth in hoth city and country. The activity of new railrond companies has had a noticoable effeck on the older companies, and they are preparing to winch out in self-defense. The Bur- lington oxtension from Alliance to the Black Tills will be pushoed forward this season. The Pacific Short line is mov- ing westward at a steady gait, and the Missouri River, North Platte & Denver pives ovidence of life by placing sur- veyors in the field. In the south and southiwest there is very little railroad building, but several companies are ready to move forward if tho usual financial inducements areoffered. The outlook for a prosperous year is a cheer- ful one, and if the present favorable coundition continues, 1889 will rank with the best in tho history of the state. To HAVE bled the Omaha and Coun- cil Bluffs Bridge company for thousands of dollars for fancied injury to property while 1n fact tho bridge has immensely benefitted it would have been a gross in- justice to the company. The damage suits which were pending in the distriet court ha xeited no little publie in- terest, as their outcome has had con- siderable influence in shaping the fature course of groat public improve- ments in this city. The verdict of the jury in the Hoagland-Bridge case in- volved thevefore an 1ssue that was vital to the futuare growth of the city. The jury found that no damages were sus- tained by the plaintiff by reason of the erection of the bridge. Had the ve dict been otherwise it would nave di: couraged enterprises on a great scale in our city, and would haye set a bad precedent for the future development of Omaha. A COMBINATION is reported to have been made in Ohio for the purpose of fighting the Standard Oil company There is nothing new in this. Lver since the groat monopoly was organized and entered upon its eaveer of crushing out competition, theve have periodicatly been established companies with re- ported millions of capital-to fight the Standard. The umform result k Bowover, that after a brief struggle the warring companies have fallen into the capacious maw of the monopoly, they were designed to been, as in most ¢ a6, and it will be simply following prec- edent if the new combination shall in a short time pursue the usual course. With one or two hundred millions of capital and alrrost unlimited resources, the Standerd Oil company is in o posi- tion to wage a v vinst competitors decidedly unprofitable to them. AL B8 THERE were two conspicuous political events in the career of the late Simon Cameron which marked him as a leader of extraordinary power. One was the influence he exerted in favor of the nomination of Lincoln in 1860, and the other the defeat of Blaine in the na- tional convention of 1576. In all prob- ability had Cameron favored Seward in the former year that statesman would have been nominated, and it is equally likely that had he mnot opposed Blaine in 1876 the ‘‘Plumed Knight,” who then received that title, weuld have carried the convention. In the former cas e unauthorized friends of Mr. Lincoln were reported to have made a deal with Cameron, but the only evidence of it is the fact that Lincoln made him secretary of war. ight against Blaine in 1876 ver, was openly made, and 1t was in consequence of it that Hayes became the candidate. 0 H he Tue celebration of the glorious Tourth in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, this year, will be extraordinary in 1ts character and marked by no less an event than the assembling of o state constitutional convention. The time is near at hand when the strength of the various senatorial candidates will be accurately known. Pettigrow ‘amp- bell, BEdgerton and Moody are the most prominent aspirants. Tt looks mightily as though Pettigrew will be suc ful, but as to which of the other three will be chosen is doubtful. Moody would be stronger if ho had not provoked the sus- picion of the farmers by his connection ith the Homestake Mining company; dgorton has been vacillating, while Campbell is overbearing, and it is diffi- cult to estimate which of the three stands highest in popular estimation. PAnrties who made such a howl over the delay in the selcction of a postoflice site and sought to vouse u riot over the postoftice location will now discover that their hue and cry was delusion and a snare. Our dispatches from Washington confirm what every intel- ligent man must have foreseen, that at the very be ay only have a base- ment exeavation befors the snow flies. It will take weeks to clear the title and condemn the property taken by right of eininent domain, and it will take six months at least to prepare plans for the building. a THAT Seeretary Tracy, of the navy, is & thorough business man has been demonstrated more than once since he has taken charge of his department.

L} IT is announcea that the dividends of the cotton mills throughout New Eng- land for the second quarter of the year will be larger than those declaved for the first quarter. The result is most en- couraging to the cotton industry.

Mexico has within ber borders the eloments of national greatness, und the growth of the federal power is nov the least encouraging sign of her prosperity. Instead of a number of small states continu- ally jealous of each othor and often ongagsd in actual warfare there is a gennine federal government, with power to pass laws and to enforco its decrees, and as a result Mexieo s on the bigh road to prosperity and to the us mption of her rightful place among the nations of the world.

Thero has been no breach of the pasge by freedmen, no eftort to overturn exlsting nstitutions, no threats against the security of life and property.

At any rato the rosult of the election will lavgely determine the future of that country. Though by no means friendly in most re- spects, the German and Russian govern ments are united in an attempt to bullioze uhe little republic of Switzerland, which the; accuse of having offered too el freedox of action to anarchists and other political couspirators. In his dread of tho nihilists tke czar regards Switzerland as the nest in which are hatched all the conspiracies against uis lifo, and his goveroment insists that Switzorland shall deliver up all political fu- gitives from Russia or drive them beyond her borders, Out of complacency tothe ezar the ierman government is almost as brutal in 1ts demands upon the Alpine republic. The spivited reply of Switzerland entitles her to the continued respect and sympathy of all liberal governments, The congress of the republic declares that, while Switzerland will faithfully tulfil all her intornational ob- ligations, she will not consent that Germany shall exercise any anthority over residents within Swiss territory. In gi z asylum to potitical fugitives from every country the epublic, at the same time, will not perinit her hospitality to be abused by those who would male her soil a center of criminal in- trigues agaiust the heads of friendly govern- wents.

It is a dark picture that Kmperor Francis Joseph draws of the condition of affairs in continental Europe.
