That state is still to boe placed in the doubtful column. recent municipal some The New York Sun is trying hard to work up a boom for Senator Gorman of Maryland as a presidential candidate, If Gorman has aspirations in that direc- tion he should induce Mr. Dana’s paper to desist. In the character of a War- wick the Sun has beena conspicuous failure, I1 would seem that there ought to be no trouble in gelting a supply of men fit for service in the American navy, but It appears that the men not to be had. There is in this ot a cogent ar- gument for a merchant marine whero men could be instructed in seamanship with a viow to entering the navy. Tue United States consul at Stutt- gart, who is in Washington on leave of absence, says there is no doubt that the German government will very shortly remove the restrictions on American hog products. So confident is the feeling that this will be done that preparations are being made for the handling of a large trado. AN ANTI-TRUST bill has passed one branch of the Illinois legislature which makes it a conspicacy to defraud for any person, corporation or association to be- come a member of a combine to regulate the price of anything produced in the stato. If the measure b law, as it is expected to, it will be disastrous to the decision recently reached by tho farmers’ allinnce of Illinois to sell no wheat until the price got up to $1.25 a bushel. comoes MR, GrorGe TICKNOR CURTIS, the distinguished New York lawyer, says of the New Orleans grand jury proceed- ings that it is the most lamentable fail- ure of public justice that has ever oc- curred in this country, and the worst of it is that the failure is excused upon the most abominable doctrines, Unques- tionably this refloets the nearly univer- sal sentiment outside of New Orleans, The imbecility of this proceeding is an fndelible reproach to the country. NEBRASKA is o very liboral contrib- utor to fire insurance companies. In tho years 1888, 1889 and 1590 the pro- miums paid to insurance companies by the citizens of this state aggregated $5,5647,080.04, During the s period the amounts paid forlosses by fire aggre- gated to the insu 6. Deducting from this sum 15 per cont for commissions to agents and there is still a surplus of over two millions and u half to bo divided among the insurance com- panies. In Nebraska has contributed over 800,000 net profit to the fire insurance companies every year for the lust three No wonder this is regard ed as u very profitable in- surance field to the vnderwriters, no other words, years, The ts of our city council made fools of themselves and bolittled the city by passing a stupid resolution that they will not recognize Governor Thayer in his capucity as chief exceutive of the deniocr state at tho presidential reception. In the first place such a resolution is su- premely silly in the face of the decision of the supreme court, and fn the next place it is not material whether the council recognizes the governor or not. The reeeption is tendered by the citizens of Omaha to the president and the councilmen are merely a part of the procession. Thoy have nothing to do with G Thayer nor he with them, If Governor Thayer comes to Omaha, he will receive the courtesy which is due to the position he oceupies, even if by so doing the recep- tlon committeo will incur the displeas- ure of (louncilman Morearty and his lemocratic colleagues, vernor THE OMAHA DAILY BEE MONDAY MAY 11, 1891 CINCINNATI 15721801 Nineteen years ago thismonth a large body of republicans, disaffected with the | policies and methods pursued by General not very great in amount, probably not exceoding ,000,000 in imports and ex- ports.

There is some uneasiness in eastern financial circles over the steady exports of gold, which, it is apprehended, may tinue for se al months. Sinee the beginning of the year over $32,000,000 has gone ubroad, and nobody can pre tend to know whether a much lar amount may not be exported before the FEuropean demand coases, How much of adrain can the country stand with- worst abuse, out dunger of disturbance to domes- | fusing to pass appropriations for officials tic business in conseqonce of tho | that are absent from the city or for contraction that would result swork not don from the loss of gold? With the possible exception of France, the Unitéd States has the largest stock of gold of any country in the world. According to of- ficial figures the goid in the country on the first of the current month amounted to $689,405,000, of which 80,000,000 was ir the vaults of the treasury. The current production of the mines is about $32,000- Mavor CUSHING ought by this time to ve pretty well satisfied that the peo- ple have had enough of Morrissey.
