The demand tohave Canadian railroad competition regulated. of which not much has recontly boen heard, has not hoen abandoned, A short time ago the attorneys of Port Huron elevators filed with the secretary of the treasury a Qrief that the entire system of grant- the oads of Canada the pr f transporting fre in bond be tweon points in the Uni ates be re- . A similar request was made nearly o year ago, and the matter has been & good deal discussed since. One of the arguments urged in justification of this request is that the Canadian go ernmeut declines to reciprocate by fusing to allow adian grain to be stored 1n and distributed to Canadian territory under similae conditions, Sen- roduced askin 0 resc ion which will doubtless be ¢ upon the vy of s yreport to the senate by hority mevchandise in bond and goods of origin are permit- tod to I forwarded between the Atlantic 1 Pac of the United States over th lian P cifie such morchandise being tran W Vancouver,and whether and or Cullom | in the sen adopted, ¢ the tre what n domestic ports Can vailway ~shippad or no neh nsportation trans- shipment on ent with the ory is consist- 1is matt portanee tothe | northwest, and it that o the aetus lowed (€ porting materinl im- of th Lty d WL expression” ve luce is e irable ofr vding al- of trans- 1d hould author- not the safety of s0 it has interfere with th e act.

Both tions are unquestionably deriving great benefits from this competition, and the independence they enjoy by reason of it from the exactions of American lines thoy will not surrender without a very hard struggle. No one questions that the alien corporations doing busi- 5 in the United States should be sub- Iy 80 far as that business is concerned, the law regulating domestic rond but it is not doubted that this is practi- cable without destraying the compet tion, Itis not probable that anything decisive will be done regarding this matter ab the presentsession of congress but the information desired of the tary of the treasury should be obtained. $00- sore- THE OHI0 REPUBLICANS. The republicans of Ohio have held their state convention, the most inte esting feature of which was the appea ance of ex-Governor Foraker, who mad a most concilintory speech, counseling that all past differences be forgotten and forgiven. The governor, with most uncommon magnanimity for a politician, assumed all blame for what has taken place to the detriment of the party, and offered himself a willing s e 10 those republicans in the state who feel that they must have a vietim. All that Mr. Foraker said w com- mendable, but the difficulty will be to make the men who have tried the ex- governor inthe pastand found him want- ing believe that iv was said in good faith, The course of Foraker has beon a very costly one to the republicans of Ohio, and the mischief it has accomplished will not be repaired by concilintory speeches, purticularly from him. The dis- affection it created gave Ohio to demo- eratic control, and the task of rodeeming the state will be a very difticult one. Nor will it be rendered less so by the active participation of Mr. Foraker, Ho has ned a character for untrust- worthiness in his politieal relations with individuals which he cannot remove with smooth words, and tho: whose confidence he has tritfled with, attho prompting of his ambition, are not likely to ho greatly impressod by the apparent minity of his assumption of all me for thegurty's disaster, do from tho results in the congres- sional districts political affaivs in Ohio this year will pos no very great in- tevest, The gerrymander effected by the democratic legislature, the third or fourth in the history of the state, which was arranged with a view to reversing the political standing of the delogation in con s, wives prculine interest to the ssional contests.

SENATOR FRYE ON RECIPROCITY. An extract is published from a letter of Senator Fryoin response to that of Socretary Blaine velating to reciprocity with the southern countries, Itis plain that tho senator does not regard the plan of the with absolut favor, and his line of soning is en- titled tful consideration. R forring to the amendment to the ta bill proposed H®Senator Hale as doul s includi the arvticles which the secretary of state believes the in republics will receive free from this country in compensation for Senator F romarks that the dificulty is that the amount of sugar to be wived from th would be comparatively consumer of would benefit it.

The allof themarenot in demand and such are would very small figure in comm and in re- ducing the surplus of our products. The free admission into Cuba of Ameorican flour would probably not make an addi- tional demand for than five million bushels of our wheat, if so much. As tothe South Ameriean states, it is ensy toexaggorate tho value of thosem k for our breadstufls, the fact being that the more progressive of them longer need to import lavgely of food produ The Argentine Republie is an exporter of breadstuffs and eattle, and its rapidly expanding agricultural . but seeretary to thov s free sugav, » state suar to the su named fact is, there cut o our no »s promise that within it will bacomas one of the ive competitors of the United afe most States The more extendin the more pear carcfully this problem of our southorn trade is studied difticult its will ¢ he long-established comm policies of those eountrie. business alliances that botween them and can solution , and the closs huve grown up Furopean countries, it be changed in a day, nor ave the nstanc such as will allow us to dictate the terms upon which a chango shallbe made, Trade rociprocity be- tween the United St and countries south of it is something to be hoped for and worked for, but it is doubtful if the practicable way to achieve it is the ome urged by Mr. Blaino. ASPHALT PAVING REPAIRS. A formal complaint has boen made by one of our puving inspectors against the use of asphalt that has been taken up on old paved strects for the repair of other streets that are to be kept in good con- dition by the Barber asphalt company under its cont h the cit; While there may be no specific pro- vision in this contract that prohibits the use of second hand asphalt it stands to reason that such material would not be equal in weare to asphalt that has never been exposed to the clements and wear and tear of travel and traflic. The convenicnes and comfort of our citizens demand that the best materials shall be used, and that streets shall not be blockaded by the repaiving gang months. The fault peimavily 5 with the property owners them- selves. They should have insisted upon a ten or twenty years' guaranty in- stead of a five years’ guaranty. That would have given us an eight or ten inch conercte base in- stead of a six-inch base which, at the present time, has shrank to three inche of concrete and three inchesof gravel. Were the company required to lkeep the pavement in fiest clwss condi- tion for ten or twenty years it would take great pains to lay asubstantial base and cover it with a coaling of asphalt that would stand the wear and tear of ten sars” traffie, As it is the cheaper pave- mont becomes the dearver in the end. But that does not justify the use of in- forior material for repaiving, On that point there can be no issue. SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENCY, If the new board of education proposes tomake a change in the superintend- eney of our public schools it must have assurance beyond question that the change will be for the better. The pat- rous of the public schools do not demand and will not approve the substitution of any man for Mr. James unless he be kknown to possess superior qualifications as an educator and greater executive ability. Such a a man can only be found in city la than Omaha. It is one thing to command a company aud another thing to e i i ordivision, A man who has never had supervision over more than fifty or seventy-five teachers in some city of thirty or forty thousand population is liable to break down when he is called upon te organize and supervise the schools of a city thut employs two hun- dred and fifty to three hundred teachers, and is steadily growing. 1t would be just as sonsible to place tite editor of some country weekly in charge of Tne OMAHA Bger as to importa man from Topeka to tuke charge of the schoals of Omahba, Mpr. James has his friends and his enemies, but it is conceded by all that our public schools vank with the best in the country, They are the pride of our citizens and should be kept up to their present standard of efliciency:.
