A proposition has been submitted to thie rlain captalists and speculators to establish compating gas- works in Omaha, provided the city will grant to the incorporators a fifty- council by ¢ franchiso for ercceting and operating The conditions under which this franchisc is asked are very tempting. The projectors agree to furnish to the city of Omaha and the inhabitants thercof gas at price not to exceed ono dollar per thousand cubic feet, with a reduction of ten per cent on 1L hills paid before the tenth of ch uth. It is an established fact that the sup- v of gas and water as well is in itself municipal monopoly. Competition is 1 followed by combination, and the only check to the exuctions of these monopolies is the intervention of mu- nicipal power. The ms object of tho promoters of the competing gas ompany 18 to procure a valuable fran- chise. 1f theiv company ever becomes a formidable mval to the e company, it will either sell a vrolit or consolidate two plu n eithe they will enrich themselves withont materialy benfitting the public.

If the city is obliged to take its s from the present company for o fixed term of y «d price, the taxpayers cannot get relief by giving a franc nother company.

It is a notorious fact that the railroads | throw every obstacle in the way of the of relinble information und do everything in their power to the news from the o in proportion to the gravity of the acei- dent. This is o false and foolish policy. It is best that the wuth of a disaster be learned at vather than to have conflicting rumors, often to the preju- transmission ne s once dice of the railrond, spread abroad. Officials, moreover, owe u duty to rela- tives and fricuds of the injured to relieve their suspense with reliable unication t possible news and to put them in com with the victims at the earlic moment. If railroads persist in ignov- ing these resonable demands the l¢ latures of the vrrious states will sooner or later be invoked to grant the sury powers to enforee then.

In the reprosentod present parliament these parties ure divided n as follows: Conservativos, i5: froe con sorvatives, 21; centre, 107; national liber: 42; freisinnige, 085 domocrats, 10: socialists 10. A majority of the body is 108, This can be attained by a coalition of the center eithor with the two conservative parties or with the two “liberal” parties, or with tho froi- sinnige or socialists. A union with the fre sinnige and democrats falls 13 short of a majority. Tho old cartel counts 133 mem bers, and would require, therefore, tho sup vort of almost the entire freisinnige groun to rotain power. This has been thought of by some organs of the middle parties, but meets with small favor among either ultra-con- servativos or liborals, It 18 not probablo that any group of partics can secure a majority without the centre, 8o that if 1t ro mains united it is mastor of the situation. Its obvious interest demands union, and it leader, Windhovst, is among tho ablest men in parbamentary life In former timos this party has had its price, and no doubt will have it now. It 1s the general opinion here that the conservatives will pay a larger price in concessions to tuo Catholica than the uberals will be disposed to do, and that the government will thus procuro a steady, though dearly bought support. But, on tho ier hand, the majority of Catholic voters would profer to go with the liberals in theiv foreign and finanolal policy, and thoy sharo Neither Catiio more of this ernment’s soc lic nor other s want paterual, but meddlesome, policy.

These peo socis ple, whose intelligence i so great, who aro cssentialiy o natlon of thinkers, have asked themselves 1f military strength and prestige are worth the dire priv. tion they suffer, and 1 suifering, pay for them.
