WY oMING has the distinction of being the first state in which the right of suf- frage is granted to women. It is a speci- men of sentimental brie-a-brac, intended to ornment the state’s political mantel- picce.

Howe's former record is to favor anything that will bring votes to him, THE Denver News sings merrily that “the day of the west” has come for the democracy, and that “western demo- crats are sick of following New York to defeat,”™ Just where the regeneration will begin, the News wisely refrains from enlightening those sickly western democrats, ————— THE school census of Omaha for 1890 shows o total of twenty-four thousand five hundred and twenty children, an in- erease of four thousand two hundred and soventy-soven over last year. Theen- torprising loyalty and activity illustrated by the figures is the best guarantee of Omaba's steady growth. THE rato on corn from the Missouri river to Chicago will be lowered from twenty conts to seventeen eents, Asthe corn crop is about all out of the countr the relief afforded by this reduction wiil be of littlo consequence. Yot if the rate holds for another year the farmers of Nebraska will be largely benefitted. SPECIAL attention is directed to our Washington letter in this issue. A brief bul comprehensive review of the important work done by congross is given, together with a forecast of what may be expected of the present congross. Always interesting, our Washington letter this morning fairly bristles with timely and reliable information. ‘Wrri the premium on gold advanced to two hundred and two per cent, the prosident of the Argentine Republic has authorized the issue of bank notes to the amount of one hundred million dollars for the purpose of relieving the financial situntion. And just as fast us the hun- dred million irredeemable paper cur- rency goes into circulation gold will ad- vance inproportion and times will be harder than ever, When people learn that you cannot create wealth by law the howl for fiat monoy will cease. THE SILVER QUESTION SETTLED. There being no doubt that the presi- dent will sign the silver bill “which has passed both houses of congress the ques- tion may be regarded ns disposed of for the present. The silver bill is distinctly a vopublican measure. In both the sen- ate and the house it encountered demo- cratic criticism and opposition, all the democrats voting upon it in eithe olng on record against it. In the senate the bill was passed by a party voteof thirty-nine to twentysix and in the house the vote on the measure one hundred and tw two to ninety, The people of the coun- 5 from this how little sin- cority there was in the professed desi of the democrats to incroase the eircula- tion and enlarge the employment of sil- verin the currency. We ha heretofore said that the bill is doubt falr a compromise a8 it wi ible to arrange, and the general rding it shows it to be 8 1l but the extremists on both sides, The act is to take efl thirty day from and \fter its passags, so that be- rinning about the middle of August the Uni States treasury will take all the silver offered to it at what the secretary finds to bo the mar price up to the limit of four and a half million ounces a month, Tn payment the treasury wi ortificates, or trens ury notes, which will be a legal tender for all debts, public and private, unless otherwise expressly provided for in the contract. These notes will be redecma- ble on demand in coin, gold or silver at the otion of the secretar and be reissued whenever thoy come Into the treasury. When held by any national banking association such nofes may be counted as a part of its lawful reserve. The compulsor, wgo of silver dollars under the present law will cease when the new act goes into operation, and the secretary of the treasury is only required to coin ench month two million ounces of the silyer bullion purchased into stanaard dollars until July 1,1891, and after that to coin only so much as may bo necessary to provide for the redemy- tion of silver note The tr is not requived to purchase under any cir cumstances fourand f million ounces cach month, but only so much thereof as may bo offered at the market price, not exceeding one dollar for three hun- dred and nty-one and & qua g It is possible that in any month veral conse ve tity offered at the market price may less than four and a half million oun this act the ent produc- ut in- is reason- tho pre 58 1 pression stactory to regt | issue « may 86V or 18, ot be It is expected that under treasury will absor b the p tion of American mines, t crease in the production ably counted upon. At vailing mavket price of silver per ounce the purchase of fifty-four million ounces annually would require the issue of notes to the amount of fifty- six million four hundred thousand dol- lars; with silver at par the maximum issue of notes under the act would be sev- enty million dollars, There hasbeen a t reduction of the number who be- 1en the enlarged useof silver in the currency was first proposed in the present congress that the inflation would be detrimental and dangorous, and very few now contend that the addition to the reulation which the new law provides for will beunsafe. Whether it will result in so large a measure of benefit to the general business of the country as many unticipate time alone can determine. some There has been no recent circumstance of greater importance as indicating the restless condition of Kurope than the announcement in the latest dispatches that Emperor William had decided to shorten his voyage and return to Kiel July2l. Onlya very grave state of af- fairs would have induced the emperor to abandon a cruise just entered upon and from which he was known to anticipate very great pleasure, and it isentirely safe to conclude that his decison was not made without a most earnest appeal from the home governmont. William has shown himself aman not casily disturbed by political events apd he turns reluctantly from the pursuit of pleasure, so that his course in the present case indicutes an extraordinarily presing and imperative demand upon him, The causes named for the interference with imperor Willinm's v are the gravity of the situstion in the Balkans, the increased prospect of trouble with France, and the agreement with 4ng land regarding a division of territory in Afri t of these sources of un- easinessand apprehension ischronic,and with the addition of a few new compli tions it is not now in its essential char- acter different from what it has been for several years, The counflicting interests of Austrin and Russia in the Balkan pe- ninsula, and the determination of Rus- sia, manifested openly and insidiously, to increase its power theve, soems likely to continue a cause of disturbance and a menace to the peace of Buropeso long as anything remains for Russia to desire, Tho di wy that at the coming conferencd n Emperor William and the ozar the resources of diplomacy will be exhausted in a final effort to harmonizo Austrian and Russian rela- tions inthe Balkans. Doubtless no one expects that the objectsought will be attained, and in the almost certain event of failury how much longer can the sit- uation remain in the condition of the last two years? The abdication of Prince Ferdinand, which is thought to be probable, with a subsaquent revo- lution in Bulgaria, it is said will not be allowed to involve an immedinte European war, but this is looking at the matter from the German point of view, There is ameas- ure of reassurance in the peaceful ex- pressions of leading Russian newspa- pers, but the czur gives no sign, while there is a report that his advisers are urging upon him that the time is oppor- tune for war. The result of the im- perial iuterviews which are expected to take place about the middle of August will be awaited by all Burope with the keenest intorest, The schemes of African coloni- zation are vesponsible for the new misunderstanding with France, nty- | | extent, months the quan- | THE OMAHA DAILY BEF, MONDAY, JULY 14, 1806. which is not likely to prove particularly serlous, The French government ob- jects toan artiele in the convention be- tween Germany and England regarding the division of territory in Africans in- torfering with the Frenchelaim to the Upper Niger and s leading to the future extensionof the Anglo-German spheres of influence from the Niger to the Nile, This may be amercly capri- fous objeetion, but it is obviously not o grave and formidable a matter as to en- danger the peaceful relations of the two countr Tho situation in enstern Curope is, however, threatening, and continued peace or an early war may be determined by the imperial conforence tobe held a month hence, 8, THE intercsts in Germany which do- sire the repeal of the law prohibiting the importation of American pork ap- pear to be pres: their upon tho attention of the government very earn: estly. Thoey urge that Germany canmnot produce pork enough to satisfy hor own wants, and that the price has risen so enormously that poor peaple cannot buy pork.
