He claims to embody agreat principle and will con- tinue to feed the wvotersof the Second district on visionary prowises, Ox¥ commendable act of the tarift con- forence committee was the rejection of the senate amendment providing for a customs commission, It was proposed to create a permanent body consisting of five membors, not more than three of whom should be of the same political party, whose duty it should be to investi- gate everything connected with the operation of the tarifl and annually re- port the facts, with their opinion thereon, to congress. The first cost of this commission to the people, in the salary of its members, was to be thirty- five thousand dollars a year. There is no necessity for such a body, congress havingall the means now at its command for obtaining informution regarling the working of the tariff, and the conference committee did the proper thing in re- Jeoting the provision for it NOT GOOD AUTHORITY. Judge Marcus A. Kavanaugh of Des Moines, an suthority on the decrease of crime in Towa on account of statutory prohibition, quoted by ex-Governor Lar- rabee at the Grand Island debate granted, on Saturday Iast, nineteen pe | mits to nineteen of the druggists of that ecity to sell whisky and other intoxicants which the “trade” of the capital eity of the Hawkeye state demands, 1t is granted, of course, by the court that not one of the nineteen licensed men will violate the lawsof the state by illegal sales, but not a man who isfamiliar with the liquor trade of that state but knows that euch and every one of them expects toviolate them, and will violate them. Tnasmuch as the prohibitory laws of lowa provide that a permit camnot be granted to a firm,at least the law has been so construed by the courts of the state, it is very evident that Judge Kavanaugh violated the laws himself in granting the permits, Wh then shoufd not the vecipients of his judicial favors follow suit and violate the laws in fact as wellas in spirit ? Following isa list of the druggistsa- loonists granted permits by Judge Kav- anaugh John C Huegl Loper, C. B, Harlan, H. W. , D. B. Burnes, Harry Coe, A, O. TeMi w C wrence, Webb Souers, Walter Scott, Norman Lichty, (.un go F. I "“’)M_‘, :fifi,“;;;.’,r G Mpeer= T Baker, John A. Sand- hnlm. Alf Hummer, James H, Loper, Alvin G. Hammer, C. H. Ward, It will be noticed that all the permits are granted to individuals, Not one of them to an incorporated company or to a fiem, yot a careful oxamination of the rist advertisers in the Des Moines newspapers reveals the fact that not only firms but incorporated ompar Ap a henefit from them. Was not Judge Kavanwgh cognizant of that fact before and at the time he granted them? Most assuredly he ws but he whipped the devil around the stunp just as all other officials huve done who are charged with enforcing prohibition in Towa. The internal revenuelaw requires that every person’s name who will be inte ested in the profits arising from the sale of intoxicants shall be written in the ap- plication for a special tax stamp, and it is very safo to conclude that at least thirty persons are, and will be, inter- ested in the profits of the above named nineteen druggists, and that the appli cation for spe tax stamps on file in the rvevenue collector’s office at Des Moines will bear Tur BEE out inits conclusions, Judge Kavanaugh’s action in granting the permitsn not be an infraction of the prohibitory laws of Totwa, but in view of Supreme Court Justice Given's ruling, he gave the permit beneficiaries the ben- ofit of all doubts as to the real meaning of the law, and sot an example of prohi- bitory violation that wholesale and re- tail dealersin Des Moines will not lose sight of norsoon forget. It is en open socret in Des Moines that Judge Kava- naugh's brother has for years been run- ning a bar room where you can buy whislcy by the drink or bottle in the s ond largest hotel in Des Moines and has never been disturbed, for reasons best lcnown to the vigilant prohibition offi- cials. A COMMENDABLE EXAMPLE. A notable convention was held at Fort ‘Worth, Texus, on the 25th inst, It was a gathering of reprosentative manufac- turing and busivess men, brought to- gether for the purpose of devising ways and meuns to promote the manufactur- ing interests of the state. Over the door of the convention hall was the sig- nificant motto: “God gave Texasthe raw material; let Texas use it. " The importance of this convention lies in the fact that it sots an examplo which may be followed with profit and permanent benefit by the states of the west. Texas pro- duces wool, cotton, beef and hides in enormous quantities. The bulk of this raw product is shipped to other states hundreds of miles distant, where it is reduced to a manufactured product, after which it is saleable in the markets of the world, A considerable portion of this manufactured product is brought back to the state and consumed by the people, thus imposing a double burden— the cost of shipping the raw material and the return of the manufactured pro- duct. Inastate possessing all the cs- sential elements, this double burden is needless and onerous, and the convention declared in favor of such changes inthe organicand statutory laws of the state as will “exempt the leading and most important manufacturing industries from all state, county and municipal taxation fora period of ten yoars,” Nebraska produces corn, wheat and other products which are sent to market intheir natural form. There is no rea- son why the state should not follow the example of Texas and reduce the bulk of its products to a manufactured form be- fore shipping it out of the state to mav- ket. The advantage of reducing bulk and saving large sums in the case of transportation s well illustrated by the Omaha stock market, Until the lished and the packeries built and operated, stock growers were compelled to ship to Chicago. Now the stock growers of the west find a ready market in Omaha, realize top prices, and eflect a large saving in time and incidental expenses. The packeries secure a margin in reduced bulk, Whatis true of stock, applies with equal force to the manufacture of corn into various mercantile commodities and wheat into flour. It isnot necessary for the state to offer bountics, asit has for the production of beot suga The sev- eral enterprising citios of the state may bo depended on to give the necessary en- couragement, The question of manu- facturing enterprise, however, hasnot received the considevation it deserves, Its importance to the state and com- munities is inestimable. Every fac- tory designed for the consumption of the raw material raisedin the state not only opens a home market but estab- lishes a permanent source of employ- ment for labor, thus doubly contributing yards were estab- to the prosperity of the com- munity, A dollar saved is a dol- lar earned. An institution which reduces the weight of the raw product without reducing the market vulue bon- e ZLher efits the producer, the manufacture! workingman and the community. Asthe chief city of Nebraska, Omaha is induty bound to exert itself.

The republicans of Nebraska in the open- ingof their campaign, in tho First district at Plattsmouth, evigeel a vigorous and healthy condition, With the alliance on the right hand and the prohibitionists on their left hand and mugwumyps in the rear, the repre- sentatives of the pegple battling for God and thoright, the fupdimental principle of true republicanism, proseuted an undaunted front to their democratté vpponents, who, but once mathird of a century have tasted of accl- dental victory in national politics and repre- sent in state politics an unknown quantity; buta quality that will not bear the scarching es, But if the s0 far as congress is concerned it will not be well to rely upon any further appro- priation, for the obvious reason that the revenues of the government for the next two or three years are not likely to war- rant it, but the people of Chicago must be impressed with the necessity of promptly meeting the obligations have entered into in connection with this undertaking, and the greater the enthusiasm they manifest from now on the better the effect will be in reawak- ening the general publicinterest. There can be no doubt that this has suffered a very great decline by reason of the con- tentions an d consequent delay for which the Chicago people alone are respon- siblo, but there is still faith in the en- ergy and enterprise of Chicago, and if her people will from nowon do their whole duty inadvancing this great na- tional project there will be mo diffi culty in restoring interest in it through- out our own country and doubtless creating abroad a much move favorable sentiment toward it than has yet been shown.
