No more petty exhibition of partisan spleen wus ever shown in congress, and never was action prompted by such n motive more utterly profitless, for by no possibility can there be any political capital devived from it. Another bill will be immediately introduced and promptly passed that will meet the ap- proval of the president, so that the oheap democratio tacties will work mno harm or embarvassment to the parties Interested in the measure. S THREAT RETALIATION. Tt is a serious reflection upon the wis. dom of American statesmanship that it has aroused o widespread spirit of retal fntion ngninst the United States. There is not a reasonuble doubt that the re- cent reports ding a general de- velopment of feeling {u European coun trios favorable t0 a commercial war upon this cauntry have some founda- tion, Confirmatory dence scen in | the uction of the French senate in pute ting a heavy duty on corn, which it was plinly avowed was in- tended to mean s continu anco of the poliey of that country to- ward American po The ostensible reason for the action was the necossity of protecting the French farmers, but the intimation of the organ of the erament th there might be which the duties he removed made suficiently pl ‘motive that prompted them. There has been no pronounced indication that such o feeling exists in Germany, but there is little prospect of the country taking any steps to modify the restrictions poses upon the of our pork products, while in Eng- land there isa promise of more rigor logrislation for extending Amorica me This spirit of commercial hos- tility exists even more strongly in M ico than in European countries, and in spite of the influence of the Pan-Amer in ereating afriendlier feeling between the United States and the countries of South America, there is great danger that insome of the latter the t will sooner or later de- velop.

The class of statesmen who believe that the United States can advance and prospor regavdless of the west of the world are responsible for the growing spitit of commereinl hostility toward us, They ure perhaps steong enough at prosunt to put their ideas into effect, hut they will give way to wiser and broader men nfler the country has had a some- what lon losing exporience under thoir poli LEGISLA (IVE It is not at all probuble that there A1RADING, is any unde nding between republi- cans and democrats in thesenate regard- ing nroposed logislation, The regort has been frealy cireulated from the national capitol that it was tacitly un- derstood between the democrats and the republican advoeates of the free coinage of silver that the former would make ro factious opposition to the tariil bill wpon coundition that the latter would lead o fight for the post- ponement of the federal election bill. The free coinage ropublicans deny that any such arvangement exists, and their denial will not be doubted in view of the fact that someof them are known to be strongly in favor of additional leg- islation for regulating federal elections. Thoy may be more earnostly devoted to frec coinage, but the reported und standing would not help their cau since it involves only the tariff. As to the demoovals, it is quite possible that a portion of them would forego factional oppo- sition to the “tariff bill in or- dor tosecure the postponementof the election measure, but it is not atall likely thatall of thom would do so. The farilf issueis the one of greatest im- portance to the demoo and the rep- resentatives of that party cannot afford to surrendor any partof the position they have taken regarding it. There are cogont weasoms, therefore, for boe- lieving that no such wnderstanding as reported has been or will be reached. Still a postponoment of the federal election bill is not improbuble, Not much has baen snid of an anthoritative character regarding the views of repub- lican sonators upon this monsure, but it is not doubtod that a mujority of them favor the policy. It s not necossary, however, to conclude from this that all who rogard additional |‘u;,r\‘ ous as de- sirable will deem it expediont to force this issue at this time. Thore are sov- eral considevations which must have an influence upon the minds of republican senators. The republican press ot the country is not & “unit in support of the proposed hill, The masse of the republican party have not shown that they are in sympathy with the moasure. The interests likely to be affected by such logislation are notal- togather political, und those should re- ceive soino consideration, Little atten- tion will be given to the threats of the domocrats, eithor ws to what they may <o in opposition to the measure or what wight happon if it should bocome a law, Dbut conservative republican senators will uot ignore the sentiment in their own party regarding the proposed legislation, and the fact must be woll known to them that this is by no means unanimous in favor of it — MUST OVERTITEOW CONSPIRATORS, Thé' repuolicans of Douglas eounty must grapple hand-to-hand with the oath-bound band of political janissaries and conspirators who huve ranged them- selves under W. J. Broateh. It has be- in the | overnment of that | importations | THE O BEK, FRIDAY, LY JULY 11, 1896 come the supreme issue of thoe hour and involves not only the life of the party but good government in this city and county, It is aquestion whether cormorants, jobbers and tax-eaters in league with boodling contractors shall be permitted to control all party machinery, dominate all parties, control all nominations fill all the offices with their co-conspira- tors, dictate the course of our city coun- cils “from the star-chamber, and send their confederates to represent th county in the legislature, The fiat must go forth today that | | onth-bound clubs cannot rule the repub- lican party, and that treachery shall not be held at a premium. Conspirators and * jobbers must be stamped out or else the party must disband. REFERRING to the third-party move- ment in Iowa the Washington Post says: ““The leaders of the movement do not expect to earry the coming eloction, and they do not intend that the republi- cans shall. A third party at the lowa polls next fall of any considerable strength, and dreawing this strength wholly from republican sources, will have the inevitablo effeet of assuring to the democratic party | of that state a general and deci | victory.” The policy of the politi- cal prohibitionists of Towa com- | mon to their class everywhere. They always and everywhere pluy into the lands of the democratic party whenever they can no longer dictate to the repub- lican party. They have dome this in every state in the union where they have had any strength, they did it in the presidential campain of 1884 and wounld have done soin the last campaign if their candidate, who had been a good repub- lican, had not refused tobe a party to any sfeh scheme. They will do it in Nebraska at the very first opportunity, The polit prohibitionist is a free- | booter veady at all times to doduty where he thinks there is the best prom- ise of reward. Thoroughly disloyal and untrustworthy, the most mischievous ele- | ment in American polities are the poli- tical prolibitionists. is THE laws of Nebraska governing the practice of medicine, surgery and ob- | stetrics provide noadequate penalty for malprac: ven the provision requir- ing registration of physicians is prac- | tieally a dend letter. It is sufe to say | that scoves of physicians ave practicing | in the state without having filled with the county officers the documentary evi- dence requived by law. The penalty for non-compliance isa fine of twenty dollars | for cach offense. As a consequence Ne- braska affords a profitable field for medical quacks and charlafans of ovory grade: The death of o woman through neglect to provide tho ordinary remedies in cases of laboris a orime against the state and against hu- manity. It is not the first instance in Nebraska whore the folly of faith heal- ing has caused death, and robbed child- ren of their pavents or pavents of their children, and that tooin instances where lives would have been spared hac phy- sicians been employed. If deluded or credulous people are misled by this spe- cies of fanaticism, it is the duty of the state to nrotect them, and if the present laws afford no adequate punishment for faith healing imposters the next legisla- ture should remedy the defect and pro- vide quarters for them in the peniten- tiary or the lunatic asylum, where they properly belong. S IN the death of General. Clinton B. Fisk, the country loses a man who hus vendered conspicuous service in military and civillife. Born in New York, his early life was spent among the pioneers of Michigan, where he laid the founda- fion of a successful mercantile career. Removing to Missour] in 1839, he organ- ized a regiment of union volunteers at the outbreak of the war, and his gallant and meritorious-services in the field soon placed him in command of a brigade. Since the war General Fisk has been identified with many important educutional projects. To his entenprise and generosity isdue the establishment of the Fisk University at Nashville, Tenn.,, while his zeal contributed materially to the successful management of several northern colleges and seminavies. Gen- eral Fisk took no active part in polities, Although nominated by the prohibition- ists for governor of New Jersey in 1856, and for the presidency by the same party in 1888, it was against his will. He did not sincerely believe in political methods as a promoter of temperance. He lucked the courage, however, to publicly declare his convietions, and quietly permitted his fool friends to use his name as a tail for their political kites. General Fisk's ca- Foor on the whols was marked by distin- guished services to his country, o broad generosity toward the poor and a human- izing charity that did net stop to count the cost. AT’ TION is directed to the provis- ions of the primary election law, printed elsewhere, The object of the law is to prevent fraudulent voting, and to pro- tect parties invoking its provisions from illegal voters. The penalties imposed on fraudulent voting at regular elec- | tions apply to primaries, and judges and clerks ave clothed with diseretionary power to reject the ballots of voters who | can not satisfactorily answer the ques- | tions propound; If the Tammany Aesperadocs attempt to run their gangs from poll to poll as they did lust fall, the law will be enforced to theletter and fraudulent voters vigorously prosecuted. The tools of the combine should there- fore study the law and govern them- selves accordingly. It will suve them a term in the penitentiory — ASSURANCES are again sent out from Washington that the Omaha postofiice is progressing: that in fact the prelimin- aries are as well advanced us in Mil- | waukee, and that the city has been prac- | tically favored.

Kansas City Globe, The Omaha Republican has come out un- equivocally and emphatically in favor of pro- hibition. The Republican is not so much act uated by principle as the fact that Twe B has long naintained that under high license the best temperance resulls cau be obtained, and have been under that system. in Ne- braska.
