The comtituentsof the Flon, Thomas B. Reed have made answer to the demo- cratic assaults upon his course as speak- er of the houwso of representatives by re-elocting him to congress by a lagely inereised plunlity, For eight months Mr. Reed has bsen the tar ot for more vindictiveabuss and relentle: vituper- ation than was ever showered upon any other public mum o our history. Ho has recelved, he himself said in his speech at Portland last week, much in- diseriminate praise and much indiserin- inate blame, and the one was just as muchdesorved as the other, He has been freely and vigorously denounced 88 & usurper of power, exercising arbi- trarily authority for which there was 1on the bien extolled as heroie figures annals who mangurated a revolutionized the ive procedur gavdlos both indiscriminate praise and indisceiminate blame, Speaker Roed has gone stoadily forward in the performance of his daty, adhering steietly to the course marked out by the revised rules and approved by the majority of the house, He has never lost his temper nor faltered when the storm of denunciation broke upon h nor has he presumed upon the praise of friends todo more than he conceived to be his duty. Ho has offended o fow mom- bersof his own party, but only in the consistent observance of the rules which the majority had established and competent at any time to change, Those who criticize the coursaof Spealcer Rocd should be eandid enough to confess that it would ha impossible without the concurrenes of the party in control of the houss, and whilo it may e concedo that his influ- ence was greater than that of any other man in determining that course, the responsibility for itis shaved by every sublican of the house of representa- tives, ITow far it hus been vindicated by resulls every eitizen may decide for him- f from a fair and just consideration of the record. The people like o manof conrage and firmness in the perfornance of dut, unquestionably, M. Reed is such a man. His uble and fearless leadeor hip of the re- publicans of the house fs recognized by the party everywhore, and his tion will be gratifying to all republicans who believe in the brave and manly as- sertion of the principles of the party. So far as his constituent 0 concerned, the course of Mr. Reed, as speuker of the louse of ropressntatives, has been splendidly vindicated, and republicans evergwhore will heartily them upon the result, — "HE secretary of the beem somewhat slow in information regarding Car com pefition asked for by a the senate some tims ago, that he is just entering upon an inv gation of the most important matter in- volved in the inquiry makesit probable that there will be no legislation on the subject at the presentsession. Mean- time it appears that Canadian companies have not been in- different to the situation and are prepared to evade or avoid the consequences of a decision against them relative to the use of the eonsular seal system. Their ropresontatives at Washington say that if the system of sealing merchandise at Canadian points for Ame 1 delivery is stopped the goods will be brought to the American border and there soaled. This would doubtless enable them to hold the traflic 50 far as any present aathority exists to interfere with them, so that the matter would have to become one of special legislation, Ttis not likely that the subjeet will receive any more attention at the present session of congress thun las already baen given it. — INVIEW of the crowded condition of the high school and the fact that pupils were turned away for want of accommo- ition, it is clear that temporary ex- pedients must he resorted to, Bids for the proposed brick school show that the structure will cost at least twelve thousand five hundred dollars.

POSTMASTER ~ GALLAGHER will be sadly missed from the federal building. His retirement will seriously discom- mode the Tammany gang and council combine.

Temperato Temperance. Ainsworth News The Lincoln Call is not law or gospel, neither is it right when it sayd prohibition is right. Nuither the Call nor any other paper should dictate the food taken into tho body of any man, much less prosume to decide upon the kind of beverage usod at the tablo of any citiren. If to prohibit the use of boer, wine, cider, ale, porter, gin, brandy, whisky orany other article is right, then it is vight to prohibit the use of coffee, tea, tobaceo and numerous other foods which shorten lifo Whenusedto excess, Any one who relies upon the license law as the only means of re. striction is not sincere in his effort to restriet the abuse of intoxicating beverages. High license is undonbtedly a ctor in tho matter of restriction, but without gilt-edged security for the proper observanceof temper- ance legislatiol in the shape of bonds, it _is powerless to restrict Tho ebraska law provides that any person selling deinks to minors, forfoits 35 for the first offense. It also provides fora fine of 0 for selling to a drunkard, insane person oranIudian, and 100 is the flne imposed for selling liquors on Sundays or election days, The liw also provides thiat when any porson shall become a county or city charge by roa- son of intemperance, a suit may ba institutad on the bond of any person licensed who may have been in the habit of giving intoxicating liquor to the person so becominea public charge. The law also provides for windows unobstructed and against treating, In fact, the law covers every point and gives the per- son objecting to the use of liquors every op- portunity and advantage over the saloon- keeper. Expericnce las demonstrated that our present legislation is wise and for the best, as results in prohibition states testify that there is more drunkenness under the prohibitory law than underthe present Nebraska law but the main objection to the prohibitory law is the fact that the innocent are punished whilethe guilty arc allowed to continue in debauchery. Show us a prohibition town and we will show you liquor used in excess by thesame class who make drunkards in o town where restriction prevails, Though many arguments may be advansed against the present Nebraska liquor law, much more can be truthfully said agawst prohibition, Uponone policy all good people can agree, and that is the organizing of public senti- ment against drun) Too much energy has been in abusing the man who sells that on which men may get drank, while there has boen two much in- dulgence shown for the man who gets drunk, The strongoest ¢ in preventing men from becoming drunkards during the last genera tion has not been the enactment of laws to debar them from buy ink, but the grow- ing realization that they cannot afford to be- come drunk—that it now means for the min- ister the forfeiture of his pulpit, for the law- ver the loss of his clients, for the physician the dwindling of his practice, for the con- gressman the visk of his seatin the capital, for the business man tho shaking of public confidence, for the laboring man the danger of *losing his job.? The chief aim of all good citizens in this matter should be to make drunkenness constantly more and more odious and thus less and less common; and this mustalways and everywhere be the work of education and training in far greater measure than that of la: b RAILROAD Gossir, . Meeting of the Central Traflic Asso- ciation in Chicago. Cnicaco, Sept. 9.—(Special Telegram to Tur Bee.]|—Tolay’s meeting of the Central ation was the usual informal ¥'s session, in which the various sub- Jects are apportioned to the proper commit- Chairman Blanchard, however, had d a complete history of the new bill of lading, which he read. All the facts have been pulished, but Chaivman Blanchard con- cuded with the opinion that tomorrow would be the cruciul day and that in the afternoon hewould submit aveport which would embody the opinions of each of the astern rouds. T'he opinion left on the minds of the mem- bers was that Chairman Blanchard would tomorrow reco umend eitber the disconti ance of theuseof the new bill of lad that an-eurly conferenco with vhe shippers be held, for the purpose of agreeing on an wmended uniform bill, id one of the members after the meet- ing: **We, who are using the new bill of lading, are fecling keenly the offect of the shippers’ boycott. To et down to brass tacks,we can’t stand the discrimination much longer — nor will we. The frank, Wabash aud Big are doing an unprecedented busin and_the rest of us arconly getting the through business which cannot “be turned from us The Lake Shore road has notified Chairman Blanchard that it will discontinue the use of the new bill of luding unless all lines use it and half a dozen others of us will follow the example of the Lake Shore tonight.” 2 During the day the Grand Trunk gave its ultimatum to Chiairaman Blanchard on the bill of lading matter, Itwas that it would use the new form if every other line castbound from St. Louis, Peoria and Chicago would use it o Rock Island being a rond cast, bound from Peoria, President Cable was scen. Hesaid: “We will havo nothing to do with this new billof lading unless it is amended in a manner satisfictory to the shippers. We all wanta uniform’ bill and when one is drafted satisfactory to all con- cerned, it will undoubtealy be put into effect on allroads in the country.” In the wminds of the Central Teaftic people, this sc to settle the matter. Ttis expocted no rer effort 1o brin Trunk, Wabash and Big Four into line will be made and that the majority of lines now using the new bill will discoutinue until it can be satis- factorily amended. In today’s meeting of the Western Freight association, the Rock Island and the Alton gave r expected notices of reduction in rain rates from the Missouri river to Chicago of 19 cents on wheat and 17 cents on corn and:om the Missouri to St. Louis of 4 centson wneat and 12 centson corn, The motion to reduce the rates as above was voted down and the two roads gave notice under the rules that they would make the ductions on September 19, It is expected that other roads will take similar action to- morrow.
