[ The republican state eentral commit- tee. which meets at Lineoln todny to | formulate the conditions under which the state convention is to be held, is | charged with a grave responsibilit 1ts netion will, ina great measure, de termine whether the party shall continue in supren for the next twi e be swept from power and place by the | tidal ve of popular discontent. There are those in the state committee who resent the action | of the anti-monopoly republican confer- | enco as an impertinent intrusion and | unwarranted interference with the | prerogative of the committee. They look upon its demand for an early con- vention as a threatened bolt. These | members apparently ovetlook the fact that the republicans of Nebraska are confronted by a popular uprising that | must be placated before it is too late. 'hey also seem oblivious to the fact that a convention in the first week of July is not an early convention. In a majority of the states conventions | are to be held during the present month and comparatively few state conventions | will be held later than the early part of | Jul Candidates for state offices have alrealy been nominated in several states, The Illinois and South Dakoka democ- racy hold their state convention today, and the republicans of those states will follow suit son after, The Iowa republicans will hold their te convention on June 25, the day thatthe conference commit- tee originally had agreed to recommend as the latest date for holding the state convention, It is therefore manifest that the decla- ion of the conference in favor of a r convention not later than July 8 is not at variance with the customs of the great part] in other states, so far as relates to the time of holding conven- tions. MAKING HIMSELF SOLID. Councilman Chaffee has made a per- emptory demand for the head of Bal- combe and the appointment of Birk- hauser as chairman of the board of pub- lic works. Wnat business has a republi- can councilman to ask for the appoint- ment of a demoerat, and why does Chaf- fee want Birkhauser of all other men in Omaha? Are Chaffee and the Seventh ward to monopolize all the appointments and sinecures? It was O Italian ~ hand that gave the city hall plans to a Seventh’ ward architect. Chaffeo engineered the Dodlin nite job and dictated a Seventh for superintendent of the city hall building. Chaffee substi- tuted Inskeep, a Seventh ward striker, for John Butler as sergeant-at-arms of the council, and the new plumbing in- spector is also credited to the yellow pine broker. Now Birkhauser, who lives next door to his bosom friend, Van- dervoort, in the Seventh ward, is to be given charge of all our public works, for which he is about as fit as he would be for performing on the trick mule in the ciren Mr. Chaffes is a ver, provider for the politic own ward, and the roustabouts with whom he is as- sociated in the Tammany club. But why should the mayor play into his hands, or appoint anybody at the dictation of the combine, of which Chaffee is the tail and Broatch the head?

Cyrus C. Turner, the seeretary of the Liquor dealers’ na- tional proteetive association, is in Lou- isville or somewhere in the south or east. If anyhody eise in Nebraska is acting for Tlor or Turner they have not been heard from up to date, The only parties who have shown any disposition to antagonizo prohibition arve the bankers und merchants of tho prin- cipal citios and towns who desive to p vent commercial stagnation and a land slido in property values. Their right to organize in defense of their property in- terests and business can hardly be called in ques tioj But the Y)rnhihhhm ecampaignors will continuo to stigmatize them and every- body whoopposos prohibition as “friends of the saloon,” “‘rum hoodle and “whisky bloats.” It is the prerogative tor day saints to send over) ¢ to perdition who doos. not swallow their nostrum and claim for themselves the monopoly of all the virtues. SILVER LEGISLATION UNCERTAIN. Congressman McKinley does not be- © it to be by any fneans a sure thing t a silver bill will be passed at the ant sossion of congress, though he thinks thero ought to be legislation on the subject bocause thero is a general de- mand for it. Thero have been recently expressed opinions to like effect "from other members of and the downward course silver market within the past weok has been trued as indi- eating that the operators in silver had become convineed that the chances are against any legislation, The subject continues to bo discussed in the senate and the house will enter upon its consid- eration probably during the present woek, but the conflicting views in both houses are no nearer to being reconciled tian and # seems obvious from what is said by members of congress that the chances of reaching an agreement or effecting a compromise have not im- proved. congress, of the ol over, If there is a failure of silver legisla. tion the vesponsibility for it will be on tho advocates of free coinage, who in- sist upon a poliey which the conse tive judgment of the country disap- provos. There would not ba the slight- est diffeulty in securing legilation which would provide for the employ- meat as a currency basis of the entire silver produet of the country, and which might lead ultimately to free coinage, if experience demonstrated that that policy could be safely adopted. The country is prepaved to accept a note currency based on silver bullion to the full amount of the sllver product of the United Statos, as is practically provided for in the bill to be considered in the house, but all who take an unselfish and unprojudiced view of the questionare con- vineed that free coinage is, at this time, inexpedient, would be dangerous to our financial system, and would inevit- ably bring disaster to all interests. The carefully prepared and elabor- ate arguments of the advocates in the senate of unlimited coinage have not only failed to remove this conviction, but rather have strengthened it, because they have been unable to show that there is the least necessity for their policy, or that it would be any more of- fective in improving the position of silver as a money metal than would its employment as bullion as the basis of a paper currency under the liberal conditions that have been proposed. ‘In the one caso we should invito the world to unload its surplus silver upon us, which it would assuredly make haste to do, while in the other we should simply utilize our own product, avoiding the danger of having any of our gold withdrawn in payment for foreign silver and giving the country a safe and acceptable eurrency for all do- mestic purpos The bill agreed on by the confer- ence committee of the two hou and upon which the house will be asked to take action, goes as far as it is prudent to go at this time in dealing with this question! It provides for using about tho entire silver product of the United States as the busis of a note currency. It would afford amplo protection to the silver interost of the country and would incrense the currency annually to the amount of at least thir! million dollars, It would effec ual and healthy advance in the market value of silver, ultimately, there is overy rcason to believe, carrying it toa parity with gold, with- out seriowsly disturbing the financial sy tem. In short, it would secure all the benefit wdvantages which it is pos ble to pr the danger wte of free coinage without ind disturbances inevitablo to that policy. Tt is desirable that the country shall have legislation that will enlargo the use of silver asa basis of cur- rency, but the failure of such legislation would ho less unfortunate than to adopt free coinago PROGRESS ON THE TARIFI" BILL. From such information as the Wash- ington correspondents are able to obtain cding the progress tho senate com- mitteo is making with the tariff bill, ther good reason to expect that the measure will bo ready for submis- sion to the senate not later than the end of the present month. With regard to what is being dome in the matter of changes in the house bill not much can be learned, the members of the committee being naturally and properly reticent on the subject, The room in which the committee works is not only locked, but guarded, and tho scerecy of the pro- ceedings would seem to be cavefully maintained by the members of the com- mittee when not on duty. Statements ina general way indicato that a good mauny changes have been made in the line of lower duties than those proposed in the house bill, but to what extent these embrace ar- ticles upon which lower duties would ba of substantial benefit to the people is not known. Reductions in the chemical and metal schedules are desirable, but the senate will need to carry its downward revision much farther than this to sat- isfy the demands of the country for re- lief from tariff taxation. It is reported that the senators from the iff reform states of the northwest, while professing to favor lower du- ties, are giving very little en- couragement to Senators Allison and Aldrich, the republican members the finanee committee who are undc stood to be making the fight for a reduc- tion of duties. These scnators are said to be unfavorable to any increase in the wool duties over the existing law, or any incrense in the duties on woolen goods except where it may be necessary to equalize conditions, but although they unquestionably in this view ropre- sont the great majority of the people of the west and north- west, the other senators from those tions ure said to give them little port. Spoecial interests which are s ing to draw an dncrensed tribute from the people are represented in the senate as well as in the house, and it is to be apprehended that combinations may be mado in the former which will prevent such a reform in the tariff as the pre- dominant sentiment of the country calls for, It is not necess 5 of sup- wry, however, to aban- don the hopo that the more conservative and unselfish among the republi- cans of the senate will be able ¢ through that body w tariff bill aif r con the measure It is still to ally ont from unc leration, sved that there is on the repub- de of tho senate sufficient honest statesmanship and sincere regard for the pledges of the party not to ullow so ob- jectionablo and indefensible a measure us the McKinley bill to be inflicted u now e b lican outhe country. It must be that there ave republican senators who under- stand that no greater burden could be placed upon the party in the congressional campaigns of this year than to have to defend the tariff bill passed by the house. One of these senators is quoted a ng: “Wo prom- ised to reduce taxation, not to increase it. We must fulfill our pledges or lose the next elections.” The welfare of the republican party and the highest inter- | ests of the people requirve the reduction of tariff taxation. It is possible for t} senate to subserve both, and it is still to be hoped it will not fail to do so. For fiendish ingenuity and premedis tation, the attempt to wre train on the Union Pacific tracks near k a passengor the v is wishout a parallel in the hi tory of Omabdk The object could not have been robMery, for had the wreck- ors succeeded, itywould have been impos- | sible to loot:the train befere assistance arrived from Omaha and South Omaha.

The people of Nobras re to be congratu- lated upon their escape from an_ extra session at this junction. It ought never to have been called. There was no popular demand for it and nothing suggestive of a popular demand. In the political situation in Nebraska an extra session could not, in tho very nature of things, settle the questions which ave up before the people, but on the contyary could only tend to confuse and postpone a settlement, There is profound popuiar dissatisfaction in Nebraska with the mauner in which the government of the state has been controlled, especially with reference to transportation corporations. The republican party is re- sponsible both for the legislation of the state and for the administtation of the laws, and the foeling is entertained by thousands of re- publicans in N ka that the organization of the party has been manipulated and steeved out of direct and sympathetic service to their interests, the intorests of the great mass of the community and of the public generally. The farmers especfally had therefore made uncompromising demand that the organiz: tion of the party this year, and the admini: tration of the state government should un- equivocally be brought to the service of the people and that the railroad question should be settled on this basis, And this demand had brought on an issue, involving the time of holding the convention, the declaration of the platform and the characters of the candi- dates. . It was a foolish thing to suppose that a cail for an extra session of the old legi could allay such revolt within the party, to say nothing of the popular agitation, or that it could take out of the impending political aign the resolute purpose of the peopl: ishment of that gonts immediately cliosen by the people with a view to present conditions, could be of any avail; and for such a purpose ted last year, uvder diffe: and whose sands aro running low, was obviously incompetent. It was in- competent, in fact, and under the civcumstan- ces of popular distrust it was impotent in any event. But so far as the rapublican party is con- cerned the revocation of the ion defines its opportunity. Its opportunity is merely to meet, honestly and promptly, the popular need of a political party in Nebraska, Phat need is for a party which in its organi- ation, in its purposo and in its control is de- voted to the interests of the public, and not to those of the railroad corporations or any other concern. What the republican party of Nobraska in the present exigency must do above all things is to demonstrate its respon- siveness to the popular demand, to reassuro the masses of the party by the ring of the platform and by the character of the candi- dates nominated. Aud to this end tho very best thing that the ty can do, now that the call for an extra session is out of the way, is to call an early convention. Meet the situation boldly; meet, it promptly; meet it candidly and honestly and fully. A call foran early convention now will be the sign that the party is ready to meet the people, lature ele ent condition: S YUT WODME A3 The German empr her husband when he go circles this summer.
