Our eceentrie butamuing contempor- ary with tvo headsand four ears, is wor- ried about flwum,nu salt, Inm its ca- pacily of the famer’s gurdin, itfears this daty adepessing effect on the grangersintonsts, Letus so. The objection to the duty onsalt rests on the fact that thelaw returns ninety- nineper centol itto the packerswhen the salt isusel tocure beof for export. This, it is ““the best thing for the big four that has come their waysinco the trust was formed.” The World- Herald declares: Mats dessel in Omaha packing houses are now mtailed in the shops in Lonton at the same price they arsoldto theconsimers in this city, The big fourwill now be able sIy's, to sl them in Englnd cneapr thin Omata, Things have come to apretly pass when Englishmen can buy American made goeds cheaper thn Americis can, Inother words, the low duty on salt usedin preparing beef for export males Omuha beef exceedingly cheap in Lon- don. What isthe result? Plinly,a growing marketfor Omaha beefacros thewater, anl consequently a livelierdommd at home for the cattly of tho westernstock-grover and a better market forthecornof thewestern farmer on whichthe attleare fitted. And this confors the triple blessing of stimulating the mark forOmuha. dressel beef, for cattlo and for cwhn. Under these highly encouraging cir- cumstances, the doubleender will find nobody toshare its anxiety on the subr ject, Growing markets memn growing prices for the man who works orsells, and consequent prosperity for pickers and employes, stock-raisers and farmens, THE PE That hard-w \SION IN POLITICS, el political issue, the soldier’s pension, isgetting tobe the ex- clusive pssession of the domagogue. Thepeculiar thingabout it is that the menwhotry hardest to coin itinto votes are frequently thoso who had nothing to do with the the pension ispurely political, Here, for instance, is the democratic opponent of McKinley in Ohio, who knows of the war of the rebellion, like the war of the revolition, only as a matter of history, not having talcen partin either, Yethe has the cheelk to try to influence the oldsoldiers against McKinley, the gallint veteran, because congress did not puss the servico pen- sion bill. Replying to this impudent thrut, McKinley said, with great feel- ing: If the soldiers of my distrietprefer John G. Warwick as their representativeto me, in God's name et them goand vote for him. I did whatwas rightand the best under the circumstances. My record is made up and I'woula not chnge itif Tcould T showed my devotim by four years and abalf of active service, and I don’t propossto play thederna goguenowto catch a single vote, That is the sentimentof amananda patriot. Th orepublican party hus said thatevery sick or needy sollier, or hiy widow ororphan, shall weceive a pension as the tributeof a grateful country. It is tolay oxpending one hundred and ten millions a year in fulfillment of the promise. Andthewar was oer aquar ter of a cntuly ag Candidates who ask for votes on the growd that they will favor further ex- tensions of the law appeal to asenti- ment very different from thatof pitriot- ism, which is a4 sentiment not set down in any respectible pricelist. ‘Ihe man who talks pensions for the votes there are in it is geierally a demagogue of a cheap varlety, PRESIDENT HARRISON The prosident has returnel to Wash- ington from his western trip, which was undoubtedly asourceof loth pleasure and Instiuction to him. He has seen v portion of the couwntryof which he had before possessedno personal kunowledgeo, and he has witnessed the evidences of wostern energy anl enterprise of which he had previously only hewrd. He los obtained new assurance, also, of the great popu- lar respect in which' the presidential office is held, and found abudant evi dence of the loyulty and patriotism of the people, He hus learned thatdevo- tionto the government is as goneral aud- hearty inthe wost a3 in wy other soction of the union, md that western people are ws cordial and lospitablens those of any other portion of the country. Such an oxperience camot but hawve been highly gratifying to President Harri: son, The teip hasbeen notable in anothoer respocts that of furnishing now evidence var ad whoserelation to j of theability and tactof the presadent intalking tothe people. This charac- torlstic was madé manifestin the presi- | dontial campaigen, when General Harri- son was subjected to a severer orleal than any otler candidate for the presi- dmey ever exprienced, and passed through it without giving the opposi- tin « single opportunity to mike po- litical capital outof his utterances. But he wasthen under tho restraints of apo- Litieal campaigrn vhich required him to Adibentely veigh every vord he spoke. The whole country was then giving the closest attention to his uatterances. sent the clrcumstances aro differ- ot the numerous talks of President rison tothe people on his western trip show the same wisetiwct and ¢ imspection, the same judicious adapta- tion of thought to circumstances, the sume folicitous prosontation of intelli- gont and instrucive ideas vhat distine guished his speeches to the sores of dolegations that paid thoir repocts to him asa endidite for the presidency tvo years ago. Nowhere in th e ten states through. which he has just passed dil heuttera sentence with which any fair-minded man could find fault,or from which the opponentsof his party conld deriveany capitil, and everywhere his remarks wore approprinte,spposite, ind sufficient for theoccasion. Voryfow men possess to an equal do- aree with Presidont Hurrison the faculty ofready and felicitous expression as a popular spenker,and it israre thathis publictalks, however bric, donot con- tain something worthy of serious consid- emtion. Hedoes not find it necesary to deaw upon an eeycopelia when cilled upon to address the peoyple. If anything was wanting to prove the practicability of an annual ex position in Omahy, it is fumished bytheresults of tlie exhibition just closed at the Coli- soum. Coveringa period of three weel publicinterest in the exhibits and enter tainments did not wane and the patron- age extended serves to show the sub- stantiol appreciation of the people. Theexposition was orgmnized too late inthesonson to maleit truly representa- tive ofthe tradeand ind ustrial interests o thecty. Despite the brief timo at the disposal of the managers, their en- ergy and ability wrought a creditable exhibit, instructive and entertaining to youngand old and profituble toallcon- cerned, Omuha’s commanding position calls for greaterefforts toprovide an amual antertinment not ouly forthe people of the city but forthe thousands in the surround ing country, The superior ac- commodations and metropolitan attrac-] tions of the city, combined with | eratic an gannual exposition, will draw thousands of people to Omaha an- nually. But there must be varietyand novelty. New features must beinvented. NMonotony is the graveyard of success. Repetitions become stale and profitless. The experience of other cities must be studied 50 s to averta possible failure. The successof two years shows that con- stant change is essential to permanency. Tho question of permanency depends solelyon the enterprise and skill of the managers. It s a matter of dollars liberally ivested in procuring at- tions and inthoroughly acquainting the people with the leading features of the exposition. But the work must be cirried foryard on higher and more ex- tended lines than heretofore, and sume- ,ness avoided. The measure of success will be in’proportion to the liberlity and well directed energy of the man- agers, THEofficicy of the federal anti-trust law isubout to be tested in the United Statescourtof Tennessee. The district altorney has instituted proceeding s against the coal exchange of that city, climing thafitis acombination to re- strict the Treedom of trade, and itsex- istencea violation of the law., Should the court sustainthe view of the district attornoy the consequences will be far- reaching and certainly beneficial tothe public. There issearcelya cily of con- sequence in the country without acoal exchange or a similarorganization oper- ating under differont names, but forthe sine end—to maintain and control prices. The spitit of combination isnot confined tothe coal business. It extends toall leading branches of industry, from the crudle to thecofin, the luxuries of the rich aswellas the scant necessaries of thepoor, In two years noless than fitty-eight important branchesof trade and manu facbure passed into the hunds of trusts, for the avowed purpose of con- tolling the product and regulating prices. Whether these orgunizations can be reached and di and the frecdomof trade involves miny weighty problems, w will roquire years for the courts to solve.

A Case of Horse Stealing—Rescued Her Lover-How He Fooled the Money Loaners—Other Lincoln News. Lixcory, Nob, Oct. 11.—[Special to Twn Brk.|—Commissioner Jenkins has recoived from the new sugar manufactory at Grand Island samples of the first sugar made from beets in Nebraska, The samples are of both the refined and unrefined products and thero isa pleasing delicate tasto to both that s very grateful to the palate and which is not to be found in thoordinary cane sugar, The unrefined sugar is brown and very molst and will not be put on the market unless thero should happen to arise s demand for it, The rofined sugar is & snowy white product, looking exactly like granulated sugar, but possessing none of the flintlike qualities of that saccharine substance. Commissioner Jenkins is_delighted with tho specimens sent him and now feels as though he had trivmpled over the unbeliev- ing who had branded him as the “beet, sugar crank'’ on account of the enthusiasm ho has manifested in his pioncer efforts to havo this great industry establishedin N ebraskn, Mr. Jenlkins says thatn careful analysis of tho white beet has shown it to be rich in saccha- tine substance, and this is thé reason hie has championed the introduction of the sugar beot. The state of Nebraska is mainly of the earticr geological formations peculiarly fitted for the raising of beetsand will not need re- newing nor manuring of any kind for years on account of the substance drawn from the soil for the formation of sugar. The commis- sioner firmly belioves that the raising of beets will ina very few years be the great agricul- tural industry of the state of Nebraska, "ho comnissioner says further thit the vegetables are hardy, as neitter the in- tensely hot weather of the past summer or the heavy frosts of this fall have affected the lieal thy appearance of the leaves, The specimens of sugar given tho commis- slonerare to be perenially preserved in the state museum, WAS ITE EATEN BY CANNIBALS? The friends of A. J. Cudney, the mission- ary, are fearful concerning his fate and hardly daro breathe their suspicions as to whathas become of him. Mr. Cudney was a well known leal missionary heroof ro- markable gifts. He was a man of natu genius, finely educated and remarkably bandsome. Early in life hodevoted his ex- ergies to the clevation of fallen and degener- ato humanity. He made friends and ad- mirers inall clisses of society by his irre- sistible magnetism and never was known to use his abilities only for the ennobling of his felow men. A year ago he decided to go to the South Sea islands and preuch to the Cannibals there the doctrine of Christ he so dearly loved and served. Since then reports concerning his death have been set afloat, and as no word has been received from him since he lefta year ago, his friends here are fearful that the worst fate that can happen to @ missionary among man-eating savages has befallen tho talented Mr. Cudn OASE OF HORSE STEALINO. A colored man named Mike McClutcheon was arrested this morning by Detective Ma- lone on the charge of stealing a horse and wagon. The thefts of which he is accused occurred several weeks ago, The horse was stolen from 8. K. Holmes' farm, west of the city, and the wagon from a man named McGuire, living in the north part of the cif No trace of the stolen articles could be di: covered until this morning, when McGuire saw IMcCutcheon drive wp near the postofice, He called Detective Malone and informed him that the wagon in the colored man's pos- session was the same one that had been stolen from him. Malone asked MoCutcheon to accompany him to the police station, but the supposeil thief retused to go and he had to be dragged to that place. The darkey claims that he bought the horse and wagon from some strange moan whose name he does not know and whom lLe never saw before or since, RESCUED HER LOVER. September 24 Frank Williams, a well known tin horn gambler, was arrested on the charge of gambling and he pleadedguilty of thesame, He was given the alternative by Judge Foxworthy of either payinga fine of ®50 or leaving the city insideof twenty- four hours. He chose the latter punishment and disappeared. But he could not stay away from his “solid girl”’ and he returned aday or twoago. Hewas promptly arrested and ‘thrown into jail to board out his fine of #0 and costs. The fallen woman who loves him could not endure the thoughts of her “lover” pining away in a prison coll and the police say that it was through her that a writ Bl abeas corpa was iikued tHis MGPDIE and he was released to havea hearing of his case «before the district court. HOW AIKEN GOT THE MONEY, Joe Aiken has fallen into the nands of the officers on the charge of getting $1 under false pretenses from Mead & O'Brien of the town of Davey. It is said that Aiken repre- sonted ho owned a large corn crop, any amount of hay and innumerable hogs, and se- cured the loan on these representations, Mead & O’Brien declare he is not worth any- thing and that his representations to them were false. They thercfore demand that ho be punished. The casols being renovated in Justice Brown's court, MORE INJUNCTIONS, The filing of the injunction of Grove D.

MoNTREAL, Oct. 14.—[Special Telegram to T Bee.]—A meeting called by the mayor last evening to consider the advisability of tendering a reception to the comte de Paris was a very lively one.
