THAT conceited British colonel who | demanded the lowering of the stars and | stripes on an excursion stcamer as the price of his compar vory properly stationed at Kingston, Here it was two v is | several prominent newspap: | stop depending upon TR T UNMARA AGAINST A NEW YORK MAN. The position taken by the Rocky Moun- tain News agninst the nomination for the presidoncy by the democratic part 1892, of Cleveland, Hill or any other 3 York man, and its appeal to the demo- Ly give the and south haps somewhat premature, but it will incite ssion of & matter which a considerable number of demo- in to chanca, is pe o west crats believe to be of the very g st importance to their party. The suggestion that the democracy should look elswhere than to New York for its next presidentinl eandidate is not | original with the News, It was ve foreibly presented some months ago in magazine article and fully a yeara in the south urged the same idea, advising the to st for its next ratic candidate for the presidency since 1864 has been taken from New York, and George B. McClellan was essentianlly a New York the y dem party to look W andidate, v man, The fact that but one of these was elected and he was afterward defeated, | losing New York, has convinced many that it time to | that state for its presidential timber and to attempt to make a breach in the western strong- | hold of ropublicanism by taking the | demoeratic candidate from that section. | here are several cons ons or theories, more or less forcible, urged in | support of this view, but the con- | fronted by conditions so formidable as | not to be ecasily overcome. The most important of these is the fact that there | is no democratic leader in the west who has availability as a presidential candi- date, and the south may ns well be left out of the question, for it will be a great many years yet before a man from that | section ean be elected to the presidency. | Another of the conditions is that Now is absolutely necessary to demo- ¢ success, and is likely to be for a thoughtful democrats are long time to come, so that it is of the first importance to con- sult the wishes and satisfy the demands of the democracy of the Empire state, So long as this is done New York may remain in the doubtful list, with the chances a little in favor of the democrats, but whenever a national convention shall ignore the wishes and demands of the democracy of that' state, distinguished for arrozance and rapacity, the effeet would very likely be to pluce the chances largely in favor of the opposing party. The democrats of New York have for so long a time had pretty much their own way in dictating and their defeat would certainly produce widespread indifference and more or less defection among them, selecting a candidate outside of New York, it is obvious that the appeal of the News and those who think with it will be futile, for the reason that the democratic party is already committed to the renom- ination of Cleveland as the only availa- ble man who represents its controlling principles and policy. Every demoeratic convention, state or congressional, held this year, has given most distinet utter- ance'of loyalty and partiality to Clove- Th land. most influential organs of the part; th two or three exceptions— and the sinecrity of the democracy of these not altogether unquestion- able—are unqualifiedly in favor of the renomination of the ex-president, and we do not know of any party lender, north or south, except Governor Hill, who is opposed to making Mr. Cleveland again the democratic presidential stan- dard bearer. The desire of the News to see the democratic party relieved of the domination of its selfish and unpatriotic New York wing is most commendable. That domination is quite as harmful and dangerous as the influence of the south- ern element of the party. But the democracy will not be able to throw it off s0 long us its success depends upon the thivty-six electoral votes of the Empire state, and this it is likely to do for some years to come. is SION BILL AGREED ON. The pension bill agreed on by the con- ference committee and passed by the house is a compromise measure, but the scnate conceded much less than the house. It s simply a dependent pension bill, the house having yielded itsdemnnd for a service pension, and its estimated cost will bo no greater than the mensure was passed by the scnate and amended by the house by add- ing pensions for servico and age. The senate members of the con- ference committee announced at the out- set that under no circumstances would they agree to the demands of the house, which would have imposed upon the gov- ernment additional pressing obligations to the amount of fifty or sixty willion dollars and the alternatives being thus presented of abandoning these demands or allowing pension legislation to fail, the house conferces wisely decided to make the surrends The bill pass the senate and will ved i public approval.

The wholo _trouble Is due toa gang of malicious squaw men who played upon the super- stitious rs of the Indians, telling them fhat the whites were surrounding the reservation and inciting them to re- | Dbollion for the sole purpose of wreaking vengeance on the settlers and stockmen.

The de- m==1 of this class upon the treasury will titute only a very small part of the | increase in the pension account which this bill will make. But the legisla- tion which the house had proposed was objectionable for the reason that it provided for pensioning everybody, r gardless of their length of service in the army or their physical and financial un- bloomed in Alder guleh twenty-five years ago condition, because it would operate ustly to a large number of veterans, und for the would ha gations of the gov dispose of gens | respect and admiration of his country- less potent reason that it s ineronsed the pension obli- roment. %0 an amount which under present conditions would be no extremel The passago of the conference bill and its approval by the president, of which | thore appears no reason o doubt, will al pension legislation the prosent session, and the duty of the party in control of the government to the old soldiers will have been justly and faithfully discharged. The pension ac- count of the government will be ma- torially inereased, but the money paid to worthy and needy veterans, or those who have a just claim to the care of the + oppressive, government in their’ name, will bo cheerfully provided. Tue marriage of Mr. William O'Brien, the famous Ivish leader, and Miss Raf- falo vich, may well be termed a romance in revolutfonary life, No man in Ire- land commands to & greater degree the men and of all who honor unselfish patriotism. Mr. O'Brien’s zeal in the home rule cause mnounts to a manis The indignities he has en dured, the per- secutions and punishments suffered for the cause show that he is animated by the loftiest motives, His judgment is intuitive rather than logical, yot in the most critical moments he instinctively grasps the situation and confounds the enemy. Possessing talents of high order which would readily bring him a competence, he has sacrificed all for the ndvancement of his countrymen. The bride is a worthy companion for the distinguished patriot. Born in France of Russian rents, she inherited the spirit of resistance to oppression, and for years has devoted her energies to supporting the Irish cause by contribu- tions to continental newspapers and periodicals, in which she displayed a minute and accurate knowledge of the questions and an intense admization for the struggles of the people. In addition to her literary capabilitics, wide ac- quaintance and womanly graces, she en- joys an annual incoms of twenty thou- sund dollars a year, which .is itself a most desirable acquisition to a man who is as poor as the proverbial church mouse. IT 1S not easy to understand what in- fluence or motive could have prompted the committee on education and labor of the house of representatives to decide upon reporting favorably the Blair edu- cational bill. No actionof either house party candidates that they will not sur- | of the present congress was roceived render it without a very hard struggle, | with more general popular approval than the defeat of this measure in the senate, and there was a nearly universal hope that this result would end the But without inquiring more fully into | effort to impose on the coun- the conditions which will preclude the | try legislation which it had next national democratic convention from | been clearly demonstrated the large mnjority of the people were opposed to. The author of this bill has not had the temerity to attempt to again get it be- fore the senate, but it may be that he has been abls to induce the house com- mittee to taks it up and bring it forward in that body. If such 1s the case the committee has much to answer for, and every member of it who has agreed that the bill shall be reported should be sum- marily dealt with by his constituents. We can conceive of nothing which the majority of legisiatorsand editors would regard with greater dismay than the necessity of having to repeat the discus- sion of this bill to promote mendicancy. Speaker Roed ean strengthen himself in the public regard by keeping the meas- ure from consideration at least during the present, session. EE—— WiTH its usual stupidity the Hyphen rushes to the defense of the combine, by asserting that the council has no control over property assessments. This will do to tickle the gang.

Aggie Brooks, alias Cora Pearl, the pretty and innocent appearing girl of Scarcely fif- teen , who is anxious to get aw from the soct dllen women, is truly an__object mmiseration. ' A mere child, 'she was ruined by the man she loved and driven from home. The only place where she found a welcome was at a disreputable place in this city run by a colored woman, She was seized with a terrible discase and was also shortly to be- comea mother. In this condition she was kicked in the stomach by the colored woman, who is no other than the notorious Belld McGingan, and was thrown into tho stroet to die. She was found by the police Iying in the street almost unconseious, groaning with pain and unable to wall. The only garment she had on was a faded calico dress. The officers had mo place to take her and they forced the McGingan negress to allow her to lie on one of her beds. T'he helpless girl lay there for twenty-four hours withont food, water or medicine, and had to suffer the abuse of the McGingan female, while the officers were endeavoring to find some place where the unfortunate creaturo would be cared for, as she made an appeal to the police last Saturday to save her from lier wretched life. ‘The officers appealed to City Missionary Howe and were astonished to find him turn a_ deaf They tried to get the ladies of the various charitablo institutions to do something tor the girl, but the todo so. Finally a place 'was secured for her at St. Elizabeth’s hospital where she was taken and s now Iying at the point of death. In case she dies s warrent will be sworcn out for tho arrest of Belle McGingan on the ¢ of murder. AN UNADULTERATED FA When shown the article in the World-Her- ald of this morning from_the Lincoln corre- spondent the governor said : “The statement which appeared in the World-Herald this_morning from its Lincoln correspondent touching myself, plans or in- tentions is pure fiction—an unadulterated fake.

It is claimed that the fraud was perpetrated over a year ago, but was only recently discovered. F'raser was avrested in a distant part of tho state and brought into Lincoln this morning. He was taken before Judge Stewart, who continued the case until certain witnesses from Schuyler, Columbus and Omaha can be brought here, Fraser claims perfect innocence of the affair and says that he was out of the city at the time that the frand is alleged to have been committed. Ho says that one H. Phelps is _ the chief in- stigator of the whole affair and that Phelps has caused his arrest no less than six times on various groundless charges just because hie has a deep hatred for him. 810,000 CASE OF PARALYSIS.

Thero are eleven railroad tracks belonging to the Missouri Pacific, the B, & M. and Elkhorn ailroads at this' place, the railroads owning them separately. The plaintiff is a young laboring man who was driving to Lincoln c a load of farm produce. He claims that, witl out any warning, an_engine on the Missouri Pacific tracle blow off steam, startling his horses and causing a runaway.
