Conservative members of congress begin to see the folly of heeding fanatic clamor, and there is good ground for the belicf that the bill will be shelved, at least for this session. THE BEE today prints a crop re- port from some seventy counties in Ne- braska, which Is gratifying in the ox treme. While the average yield of corn and oats will not equal the crop of last year, there willbe an abundance. In some parts of the state rains have not been s frequent as were wished, but the soil of Nebraska, which retains its moist- ure, provented parching and baking. Compared with other states, Nebraska stands well to the front this year as in the past, and a “erop fallure™ is out of the question, Corn is king in Nebraska, and it proposes to hold its throne. POLICY. that Presl STRATIV] Tt it is true, as reportod, dent Harri congress urgl the adoption of the scheme of trade veciprocity with the countries south of the United States pro- posed by Secretary Blaine, this is to be made the policy of the administration than of an individual member of it, and e nce would ng rather be vel Very little attention might be by the countries interested to the dis- cussion of this matter so long as it is ad- vocated only by the sosvetary of state, but as soon as it shall be adopted asan administration policy it may be vedted to receive s consideration from the southern countries. There ap- ox- pears to be little reason todoubt that the president favors the general plan ted by Mr. Blaine, but it is not so certain that he will at once announce this to the country in the form of a mes- sago to congress, owing to the fact that the lar both houses ar cr number of republicans in e not friendly to the pro- y. Only one pub- esentati ged himself to support th und while ther veral prominent sen- ators who have, the majority not favorable, or at any rate do not think it expedient to attempt to earry the scheme into effect at it Undoubt- edly th sident has been advised not to the matter at this time, and he may conclude that this would be the wiser course, deeming it sufficient for the coun- try to know that the proposed poli pproved by the administration. Meanwhile My, Blaine continues to in- sist that the course he suggests is the only one that promises any real tages to the country, and unquestionubl y his views ar uning adherents. In his last letter to Senator Frye, Mr. Blaine presents a most plausibleargument in de- f‘-nv of his position. He points out that long been anxious to procal relations of trade the United State: id e finds in the y now proposed in the tari bill sugar a remarkable changoe of opinion from that which t failure of r with posed p lican re leading e hasso far ple scheme, > are are ) pre press is advan- enter with iprocity ome Spain years ago. He saysthe only danger of our not sccuring antag 8 treaties now is the possible balief of the sugar producing countries t rar, that I are anxious for free su y patient waiting they can secure all they desive without money and without price, submits the question, rinly pertinent and worthy of careful consideration, whether we shall pay for all the sugar we import in cash o reciproeal arvang ment by which a large part of it paid forin pork and best and flour, in lumber and salt and iron, in shoes and calico and furniture, and a thousand other things. In short, snys Mr, Blaine, wll we pay for it all in cash or try friendly barter in part? and he thinks the latter course thehighest formof pro- tection and the best way to promete trade, seek a Unquestionably it is desirable that we shall pay for o part or all of the sugar andany other commodities we import ith our products of the farm and fac- tory. Everybody must agree to that proposition. But the difficulty is that the facts are not of a nature to justify belief that the results of the poicy pro- osed by Mr. Blaine would be such as he anticips They are of a charncter to suggest that the saving toour peoplo of nemrly sixty million dolla of sugardutics would boa greater bene- fit to them than the trade likely to be obtained from reciprocity under the con- ditions urged by Mr. Blaine. The total value of our exports to our southern neighbors last year was not equal to the amount paid by the people of the United states in sugar duties, and while it is undoubtedly true that we might under more favorable conditions than now exist materially enlarge our exports to the southern countries, it is very questiona- ble whether the plan of the secr tary of state would produce the results which could alone justify its adoption. It is probable that we are alvendy send- ing to the southern countries very nearly as much of our food products as they would take under nay eircumstances, and our manufacturers eannot compete in South America with thoss of Europe. OF THE ELECTION BILL. ence in the senate of theelc d by the hot the cor mittee on privileges and elections is not to be regarded ns necessarily improving the chances for this tion at tha present session, It hassimply taken the yular course, the fact that the biil was kept so long on the table no indi- cation of any general hostility to it among the majority party in the senate, The elections committee of the sen- ate had veally had the subject under consideration for a weak be- 1 agroed Al amendn Itisunde t these will materially simplify and modify the measure, removing somo of the features to which the stoutest ob- Jjection has been made. For example, the domiciliary and jury features ave to by Icen ont, and it has been agroed to CHANC The refe tion bill pa S 2 to sing it fore the bill was veferred and ha to it modify very distinetly the character of the offenses under the law and the puz ishment precevibed for them, In othor vespects the house bill will undergo im- portant changes intended to rendsr it less obnoxious. The probabilities, however, are against any action being taken on the bill by the senate at the present session, wheth. the committee having it in charge shall conclude to report it or not. Senator Teller, who is a member of the elections committee, expresses the opinion that the bill not be reached at this session, It is true that the Colorado senator is hos- tile to the proposed legislation and will doubtless exert all his influenco to keap tho bill out of the senate, but there arve good reasons why it may not be found practicable to bring it for- ward, s well as some for concluding that the opposition will be strong enough to keep the measure in commit- tee during the present session. The ex- pectation is that the tariff discussion will continue at least six weeks, and it may bo the end of September bofore a vote 1s reached. In that case it is res sonable to suppose that few senators would be willing to enter upon the con- slderation and discussion of a measure n has drafted a messago to | which ould cortainly ocenpy another six weeks and raight run on until the date for the meoting of the second session of congress unless the majority should adopt a rule wrtailing debate. It is highly probable that when the tariff matter is disposed of most of the will be found ready 1o go home and very unwilling to remain, But nside from this is the senators fact that a considerable minority of republican s ators are not friendly to the proposed legislation, believing that it {s not ex- pedient. These will be st '»-n"fl\‘-'u d in their position, and perhaps numerically also, by the petitions that are going to the senate from southern ropublicans and northern business intorests protesting against the election bill. 1t is plain that the republicans gen /in the north { are not heartily in sympathy with the proposed legislation, and coupling thi fact with the distinet opposition of southern republicans, on the ground that the legi ion would certain harm to the republican cauw south, it is reasonable to that republican senators wil tho wisdom of at least for- ring action, Even if an elec- tion bill became a law A it could not become op sessional cloctions of this year, so sncy demanding ne- ion, It scems pretty sa lict that there will be no chung year In the laws regu- lating federal elections, Ee—— THE excuse given by the Union Pac for the recent reduction of its world force was that business had fallen away As a matter of fact, the company is doing more business than in inits history.
