It is well known that as Omaha goces the country goes. TWO0 members of the Georgia legisla- ture fought a duel last week, using re- volvers as extinguishers of each other. The fight took place in total darkness, which accountsfor one of the party get- ting hit. Bisior NEWMAN preached a sermon in Chicago Sunday which created a grent sensation in both religious and political circles. In preachers, as well as every other respect, Omaha takes no back seat. MEMBERS of the fair association pro- pose to visit St. Louis and obtain a few pointers looking to the conduct of a creditable horse and cattle show. There isn’t the slightest doubt that they will learn something. JEFF DAVIS is writing a magazine articlo ontitled, “*Does the Majority Rule?” Everywhere, Jefferson, except in the south.

He walleges that the people he met were sober and smiling, In the summer it is too warm for the hot blooded and chivalrous southerner to need stimu- lants, but in the winter we think he takes his toddy pretty regularly, at least he has considerable of a reputa- tion thut way. It must also be borne in mind thay Mr. Grady is running for congress and he finds it pleasant to give the people & littie tafly iu his paper. THE LOUISIANA PLAN. The northern republican congress- men who went down to the Third con- gressional district of Louisiana to assist the republicans there in the recent election for a member of congress, had an interesting experience of the demo- oratic method of eampaign in thatquar- ter. Thereis really nothing very new in what they saw and heard, for south- ern democratic intimidation and vio- lence are repeated at almost every election, but it is none the less important that this latest evi- dence of the spirit and meth- ods of the southern democracy shall receive the.wildest publicity. It is de- sirable that the country shall be given the fullest possible information as to the way in which citizens are deprived of their constitutional rights in the south, and the rule of the minority is 1aain- tained in localities of that section by means of the revolver and bludgeon, Oneof the visiting congressmen to Louisiana is Mr. Rowell, of Illinois, and in apublished interview that gentleman gives some of his experionces in the Third district of that state. Personally he and his associates were well treated, but they immedi- ately discovered that their errand was a hopeless one and that republican de- feat, although the republicans are in a majority in the distriet, was certain. This was due to the fact that the demo- crati¢ regulators were thoroughly or- ganized and were actively prosecuting their work of terrorizing the colored voters. It is the testimony of Mr. Rowell that in numerous parishes these voters were being whipped and otherwise intimidated, while the democratic spenkers were persistent in inflaming public sentiment on the race issue. M. Rowell saw the lacerated body of the colored United States supervisor, who had been brutally whipped by the reg- ulators, and he states that ho was in Iranklin when a colored man was whipped by regulators for distributing republican tickets among the cglored voters. There were daily reports of sim- ilar occurrences from the bulldozed par- ishes. Almost every white demo- crat carried a rovolver, and the shooting of Jacobs, the white re- publican deputy sheriff, was done, Mr. Rowell says, simply because he was attending to his duties as a sworn officer of the law and endeavor- ing to protect voters 1n their rights. Such was the condition of affairs that enabled a democratic minority to clect its candidate to congress by about five thousand votes over the republican can- didate. Iuis butone of numerous ex- amples supplied by congressional ole tions in the south, suggesting and giv- ing warrant to the demand that there shall be legislation looking to - the prevention of such wrongs against the whole people and such violence to our political system. It is experience like this in Louisiana that will soouer or lster compel the most conservative to agree to a course on the part of the government that will at least insure the rights of the majority in the elec- tion of representatives in congress. It may not be possible to solve the race problem by legislation. The preju- dices of men may be curbed and restrained. by law, but they can not be removed. There is the power 1 . the govern- ment, however, to compel obedience to its laws or punish those who will not obey, and if it is to stand without im- pairment of its functions and its au- thority, without losing the confidence of the people in its ability to protect them, without a surrender of national sovereignty, such outtages as those in Louisiana cannot much Ionger be tolerated. THE SCHOOL TEACHERS MECCA. The disposition of certain members of the bourd of education toward fur- ther extravagance in the matter of sal- aries crops out at nearly every mecting. Omaha teachers are beuter paid than nine-tenths of the class in the country, and they always have been especially ‘favored in the matter of light labor and pleasant surroundings. ’l‘In-,( ty 18 regarded as the school Mecea by p2ople all over the u'ut, and competent instructors can be obtained for the asking who will be glad to accept half the money now paid present incumbents. Still there seems to be a continual agitation on the salary mat- ter which speaks exceedingly 1ll for certain members of the board. L) In Wiscousin, Michigan, Illinois, Missouri, lowa and in fact all western and northwestern states it is entirely safe to estimate that the salaries, as a rule, are at least from twenty-five to forty per cent below those paid here. Tho regular salary list for the high school proper is twenty-six thousand dollars a year. No similar institugion in the United - States pays such an amount of money to the number of teachers engaged in regular school duties. In this statement regard is had to the efMciency and number of the teachers employed. There are (our hundred and seventy-five pupils in the bigh school, and it is snfo to say that ench one costs the city fifty-five dollars a yeur for tuition. This amount is lurger than that paid in many of the leading colleges of the east. There is not the slightest necessity for the board to even contemplate a further increase of pay for any teacher, whether regularly or specially em- ployed. THE TREASURY CENTENARY. One hundred years ago to-day the United States treasury department was organized, Alexander Hamilton, the first secretary, having boen appointed by Prosident Washington September 11, 1789, nine days after theact creating the office passed congress, This act created also the offices of assistant sec- retary, controller, register, auditor and treasurer, The task which Hamilton, still & young mun, assumed, was 4 most important and difficult one. The financial affairs of the govern- ment were in an émbarrassed and badly mixed condition, the busi- ness affairs of the country, though re- covering from the effects of the war, wero far from being prosperous, and the national credit was extremely low., The exigency demanded the highest order of finaucial abilivy, and noap- 1889, pointment ever maae by Washington better demonstrated his shrewd judg- ment of men than that of Alexander Hamilton as secretary of the treasury department at its organization. Having shown himself a statesman of the highest powers and & man of excel- lent military qualifications, Ham- ilton showed in this new capacity ability as a financier which soon attracted the attention of the world, and which car- ried the country safely through the try- ing exigency. TIn this position he estab- lished a fame which is still undimmed and took rank with the greatest mas- ters of the science of finance the world has produced. It is said that no department of the government with the exception of the postoffice department, grew &0 rapidly as the tremsury dopart- ment, and the most casual comparison of the operations of the treasury depurtment now with one hun- drod years ago will easily show this to be the fact. Something in the nature of a celebration of the centenary of the organization of this great department will be held by its present officials and employes, and it will be a very nppro- priate thing to do. MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING. The newspapers which have been making so much ado about the appar- ent increase of the public debt during July and August will be likely to find in the simple and sufficient explanation of the secretary of the treasury reason to regret their hnsty criticisms and conclusions, The fact is that the debt was largely reduced during the first two months of the current fiscal year, the reduc- tion, according to the secretary of the treasury, amounting to more than three times that for the same months of last year, or in round numbers twenty-one million dol- lars. The form of treasury statement now made by the department gives the amount of debt less the cash in the treasury,and, as the secretary expians, any increase of cash in the treasury shows an apparent increase of the debt, and disbursements for any purpose other than the purchase of bonds at par value show an apparent incroase equal to the amount of such disbursements. Equally satisfactory and sufficient is the explanation of the secretary of tho treasury regarding the increase in dis- bursements for July and August over the same months last year, which, with the increase in the amount of premium paid on bonds for the sinking fund as compared with last year, the purchase of bonds having been much larger, ap- pear to have increased the debt, while in reality having nothing to do with it. In a word, the operations of the treasury for the first two months of the present fiscal year make a better showing in all respects than those of a like period last yeal Ivis not easy to see how the news- papers which have been making this matter a text for eriticizing the treas- ury and the administration can avoid acknowledging that in their eager de- sire to find fault they have misled their readers and done an injustice which thev might easily have avoided. It is to be expected, however, that such of them as have not the manliness and honesty to make such an ac- knowledgment will endeavor by distorting the facts to justify their misrepresentation. The simple truth is, that the administration of the treasury thus far has been capable, counservative and satisfactory to the country, and all attempts to make po- litical capital out of it against the ad- ministration must fail. There has been shown a proper concern for the finan- cial interests of the country at the same time that the interests of the government were adequately guarded, and there isno reason to apprehend that this policy will not be maintained. T John in which thousands of lives were lost, is becom- ing an almost torgotten incident of the past, while the Cronin murder, which occurred at a previous date, and wherein one man was mysteriousty re- moved, is still the seusation of the hour. This would indicate that it is not the magnitude of a disaster or deed that gives it an abiding place in the minds of the people, but rather the manuer in which itoccurs, and more than all else, the mystery which may It is an inherent charac- teristic of human nature to find out what it does not know, and to mittempt to solve problems that seem incapable of solution. The possibility of an exhaustive research being rewarded by bringing punishment upon some one, as will possibly be the re- sult in the Cronipg case, is a strong additional incentive to leave nothing " undone whereby a mystery may be cleared up. The truthtulness of the saying that “murder will out” has come to be almost unquestioned. The whole world is against him who takes the life of another, and it may be safely stated that but few men who commit murder succeed in wholly coy- ering up their crime for a great length of time. Tue addition of Colonel John A, Cockerill’s name to the world’s fair committee of New York indicates that the metropolis is awakening to the fact that something besides money will be required to make the fair a success, As Colonel Cockerill has been able during the past fifteen yeurs to transform the Cincinnati Knguirer, the Baltimore Sun, the St. Louis Post-Dispalch and the New York World from obscurity and 1inancial bankruptey into great and valuable papers, it is at onee ap- pavent that his brains can help out New York as no other. man’s could. Western men like Mr. Cockerill take a leading position wherever they may lo- cate. As a newspaper man Mr. Cock- erill stands unrivuled, and one who is a success in this line need have no fear in grappling with a world’s fair, or for that matter with anything else. ———— Trig importance of the ten-hour sys- tem which has been put into offect at the Union Pacific shops is by no means inconsiderable. The incrense of time will add nearly thirteen thousand per month to the pay-roll of the nine hun- dred wen which it affects. Tuis in- crease in tho ,volume of money which will be disbarasd almost wholly within the city will'gtiieken the local business pulse and Hopelerate the ourrent of trado. Tho mechanics, artisans and laborers who réceive the direct benefits of the incregsed hours and pay, form an important factor in Omahn’s best cit- izenship, anfl Any movement that tends to improve their conditions and add to their good fortunes is most sincerely welenmed by all classes. THEreport now current that the pres- ident will suggest in his message to the noxt congress an abolishment of the in- ternal revenue system of the country cannot be true. Taxes from this source amount to about $130,000,000 a year and could not wholly be spared from the finances of the country. Authorities on the subject say that ‘nb more than §75,000,000 a year could bhe dispensed with from the revenues. There are both democrats and republicans who favor the abolition of taxes on tobacco, which produces $30,000,000 a year. Other re- ductions could be made which would bring the amount up to the limit of $75,000,000. It is more than likely the president does not contemplate & more radical change than is here indicated, although southern people would be especially pleased were he to recommend the abolition of the whole systom. Tuoe B. Alliance eastern & Ms B‘(Lnn%!on from into the coal fields of Wyoming will not stop there. The indications point to a move in the direction of the Black Hills. Rapid City is probably the prospective point for the present. Where the road will next push forward will depend largely on circumstances. The opening of the Sioux reservation and its early settlement promise a wide field for the Burlington’s enterprise. It is quite llkely that the road will take advantage of the opportunity, and by extending feeders through this section supply it with coal from eastern Wyoming, as well as share in the general traffic. Tne New Orieans Zmes-Democrat has recently printed reports on the condi- tion of crops in all of the southerh states. The yield of corn will be un- usually large and the rice crop of Geor- gia as well as that of North and South Carolina wiil be nearly up to the aver- age. In other portions of the solth, however, there seoms to be a gene falling off, not only in the rice crop, but the cane crop as well, Taking one ection with another, a fair general crop seemsassured, apd the general finan- cial situation will not be materially impaired by the south’s agricultural out-put in 1859, JOonN L. SULLIVAN is located in what is known as the *‘Pat Collins” district of Boston. It hds a reliable democratic majority of 7,000, and there is a disposi- tion on the partof Irishmen. of whom the district is largely made up, to run Sul- livan for congress. It istherefore mani- fest that Sullivan’s declaration of inten- tion was not made wholly without sagacity, and it may be that the na- tional halls, which in ancient days re- sounded only to the tread of great men, will receive one more of the curiosities in statesmenship so fre- quently founa there in these days. It takes West Virginia democrats a long time to count Governor Goff out. The zlection took place ten months sfnce, and Goff was entitled to his seat six montis ago, but the counting of the vote 18 not yet finished. Average dem- ocrats are poor figurers, except on counting out, where they capture the palm. If they have to take ten montls todo it in the case of West Virginia, it is probable that the state is really very largely republican. CABLEGRAMS give considerable prom- inence to the news concerning the defi- ant. attitude of the German empire towards Russia.

DepuTy Labor Commissioner, John Jenkins, declares himself as opposed to long=range newspaper controversies, and will appear before the Knights of Labor of North Platte to explain the objects of the state labor bureau. There is no doubt that an understanding will thus be arrived at that will be mutually beneficial, Tue Northeru Pacific and the Cana- dian Pacific railroads are racing to see which can cover the most of the north- west country in, the shortest period of time.

P Qutrageous Railroad Domination. McCook Gazette, Another straw has been lmid upon the camel's back by the local managers of the B. & M. The caucus of Thursday was but a repetition of what has been witnessed beforo by our long suffering peoplo when the polit- al plans of Mr. Campbell in regard to some petty precincts or school distriot ofcial needed to be satisfied. This time it took the form of opposition to our present efficient sheriff, W. O. Russell, who had in some man- ner incurred Mr. Campoell’s enmity, and con- sequently the round house and gravel train must be called into requisition to consummate the defeat of his delegates in the caucus. One hundred ana fifteen men wero voted in an unbroken line, being obliged to pass through an alley way formed by Harmon and Archibald on one side and Rogers and Bankson on the other, and under the eye of these officials they depositea their ballot. Blame not these toilers for the deed. They had wife and babies at home, and winter is not far ofl. While inwardly thoy rebelled agamst the indignity, the thonght of dear ones at home impelled them to submit. One five specimen of mental and physical man- hood was especially brought to our notice, He had expressed himself as Russell’s friend. He was sent for at once and ordered to vote *right,” and as he approached the polls in charge of an ofticial he tendered the ballot they had placed in his hand with a down- cast eye and trembling voice, while the oicials nudged and winked at each other 1 glee. We have no objections to offer to tho candidates that were success- ful on that day. It is their apparent cood fortune. Our, only protest 1s the in- human manuer in which it was dono. God pity the poor, who are abiiged_to Lsten to the crack of the slave driver's® whip. Some of the employes were cute enough to switch ballots even under the eyes of the watchers, and thus voted for the man of their choice. It would scem that if a man works for the B. & M. for $1.08 per day in the round houss, he shoutd have the poor privileze of voting for his friend if he chooses. It George W. Holdrege would give his officials orders to keep out of precinct and county politics, and allow us to choose our own school directors and other ofcials, the people would rise up and eall him blessed. As it is, enemies are bewg create every year to the road that sbould claim us all s friends, and w ould do 80 if such spoctacles as this could b forever banished.

MoxTrEAL, Sept. 10.—[Spocial Telegram to Tur Bre.]—Father Sentonne, of Notre Dame, has {ssued a pastoral donouncing the Knights of Labor and labor day. The lat= tor, ho says, was for the hoad of the church to condemn. Labor day, in 1ts pro ent shapo, was nothing more than a rovival of paganism, and was similar to thoe fotos organized during the French revolution, when the Goddess of Liberty was the su- preme ruler and God and religion were ban- ished. Catholics could not too strongly con= demn sucn celebrations, dovoid, as the, were, of the religious aspect which should accompany them. There was an invading spirit tending to mark such events of & purely lay character which should and must be stommed ero 1t went too far. If they began by arbor day and thon want to labor day, they would soon find that religion would be entiroly hanished from the gather~ ings of the puolic - e Drug St urglarizod Colo., Sept. 10.—[Spock Tho drug store at thi burglarized last night and tho groater por- tion of the goods taken.
