This spirit has been manifested everywhere along the extended trip of President Harrison, and it will charactevize the and tho welcome he will ve- farmer glad. SEEDING is finished in the northwest, the acreage is greater than ever hefore, and the outlook for a splendid crop was never better — GOVERNOR BOYD's example thould be od 1l good citizons. Obedi- ence to law and respect for authority are essential to good government. ACCORDING to the best informed European correspondents, continental Europe waits in a hushed expectancy of apprehension upon the results of Ru sia’s huge financial and political opera- tions. The recent utterances of the Gor- man emperor have not tended to remove this feeling. THE judicious reform instituted in the army under the present administration, by which the life of the private soldier has been relioved of some of its former most obnoxious features, have had the effect of decidedly decveasing the num- ber of d tions. The American privato soldier, who does his duty, is now better treated than are soldiers of any other country, THE progress of reciprocity confounds those who have persistently declared s impracticable. Spain, Bra- zil, Venezuela, Guatemala and San Domingo have entered into agroements with the United States. Canada, Guiana, Trinidad, Barbadoes and New- foundland desira to make reciprocity agreements. Such a record of success in half a year with a policy confronted by many difficulties, ought to silonce the most inveterate opponents of the admin- istration, E— THE chief of the government bureau of statistics expresses the encouraging opinion that corn will not go below 40 cents a bushel when the new crop is gathered, and he makes no condition as to the size of the crop. **Iam satisfied,” says Chief Statistician Brock, “that the home needs and the export trade will not let the price go below 40 cents.” If this opinion shall be verified the farmers of Nebrasku and Iowa have anear future of greater prosperity than thoy have en- joved for a long time. It ls porbaps unnceessary to suggost to parents having children attending the public schools to see that the little ones do not fail to participate in the reception of the president at the high school grounds. Doubtless the children can bo depended upon to claim all their privil- eges on that occasion. It is desirable for the credit of the city that eve 'y child in the schoolsshall be present, and besides the ovent will be a memorable experience to all who ticipate which cannot fail to exort upon them a good influence. 1t will make a lasting im- pression on the young minds of the greatness of the presidential office which will have its effect in making them loyal and patriotic citizens, —_— I¥ THERE is one class of public ser- vants who more than another deserve special consideration from the govern- ment it is the railway mail service om- ployes. These men, upon whose fidelity and efficiency the success of the postal service most largely depends, ave in constant peril while in the porform- ance of their duties, and in case of a serious collision or other dis- astrous accident to a train on which they are engaged they have little chance of escape from the cramped and crowded carsin which they work, This has been shown in two recent acer- dents, in one of which four postal clerks were killed outright, and in the other soveral were seriously injured. Congress has been repeatedly petitioned to pro- vide for employes of the railway mni} service who become disabled, and for thé familios of those who lose their lives when in the performance of duty, but all solicitation and argument have failed to gocure the desired legislation. The matter will undoubtedly be urged upon the attention of the next congress, and 1t Is to be hoped with botter succesa THE OMAHA DAILY BERI yWEDNESDAY MAY 13, 1891 COME Tu tho chief magistrate of the | St will bo the guest of Without regard to party affil- iations the peonle of this metropolis and tens of thousands of visiting eitizens of | Nebraska and Towa will give him hearty | and earnest w With a common | reverence for the office and respect | for the distinguished citizen who oceu- pies ity oll men and all classes will unite honor to Benjamin Har- The of this republic is the hichest office on earth because it represents the sovereign will and authority of a nation of freemen.

No preceding \dministration accomplished so much in so short a time for enlarging the trade and promoting the material welfare of the country. President Harrison has had a distinguished career as well in the military as in the civil se o of the nation, and he has shown in his public utterances exceptional ability and judg- nt. His addresses to the people on his present journey have been raro ex- amples of the speech-making faculty, abounding in sound common sense, thoughtful suggestion, and patriotic sentiment, expressed in language that makes them models of choice and im- pressive English. Omaha welcomes the chief mogistrate of the republic with all the earnestness of westorn logalty, patriotism and hos- pitality, and extends to President Harri- son and his companions the groetings of a people who yield to none in their love of the union and the flag. SHALL THE SEALS BE SAVED? 3 y Blaino has very correctly sald thut the question whether the seals in Bebring sea shall be saved from ex- termination is one wh interests all mankind. To this country it isa ques- tion of very great importance, since the destruction of the seal industry would mean the loss of a lurge amount of reve- nue to the government. England is only less interested than the United States in the preservation of the indus- try, which is a source of profitable busi- ness to a considerable number of her peo- ple. The seal catching senson is close at hand, and it is known that an un- usually large fleet of Canadian vesscls has been fitted out to poach in Behrin sen. It is apprehended that if this pur- pose is allowed to be carried out, with no more effort than has been made by the government of the United States in the past to prevent it, the slaughter of the seals will bo so great as to vory nearly destroy the industry the coming scason. The’ only effective remedy, un- less this government shall be dis- nosed to adopt more radical imeas- ures than heretofore and take the chances of a rupture with England, is in an agreement between the two gov- crnmonts for a closed season. This i strongly urged by those who are famii with the prosent condition of things at the sealing grounds. A pronosition to establish a closed sea- son has been under consideration; and 80 far as the public is informed may be still, but the indications would seem to be that the government of the United States not now disposed to a to it, it was so a months ago. The impression pre- vai that the proposition for a season’s suspension of seal catching originated with tho British government, but this appears not to be the case, It is stated, on the contravy, that it was first submitted by the government of the United States as much two months ago, and that the delay in ae- copting it was on thoe part of Lord Salisbury, When the British govern- ment at last indicated its willingness to agree to the proposition our ment was compe to consider whother the assent had not cogie too late to be of any avail. It has been reported since the departure of President Harrvison from Washington that he was still in favor of establishing a closed season, but if o it would appear that he had changed his mind or is yet in doubt, and will t until he has re- turned to Washington to decide the matter, It is & matter of small consequence from whom the proposition o stop for a | time the killing of the seal first came. If such an arrangoment is necossary | though fow govern- to prevent the practical extermina- tion of the seal, it ought to be made, oven if the government should | hoodlumism have to make good to the compang ha ing the lawful right to take seal what- ever loss or damage it would suffer from the suspension. If all the trustworthy opinions are not to be ignored the in- dustry is in groat dang and every reasonable and practicable effort should be made to save it. There will prob- ably be definite action taken very soon after the president returns to Wash- ington. AN ASSININE 10WaA ]l’ll'l. Mr. Clarkson’s Des Moines Register is, to use an indelicate expression, making a commodious nss of itself. We in- formed by that great oracle that “‘chaos now roigns in Nebraska. The decision of the supreme court in regard to the ineligibility of James E. Boyd to bold the office of governor has,” wo are told, ‘“caused great embarrass- ment to the people of Nebraska and especially to the ecity of Omaha. Mr. Boyd held numerous offices in that state, and every official action that he has taken void if the national supreme court upholds the decision of the Nebr: court, As mayor of Omaha he approved the acts bonding that city for enormous amounts, and signed the bonds as mayor. The bonds are now illegal, and endless and costly litigation will result thereon. \s governor, he approved and vetood acts of the legislature, all of which of doubtful legality. All his pointments are void, and all Nebraska is now in confusion and doubtful as to ulti- te results. The veto of the maximum ght rate bill is nullified by the ineli- is now I tion the legality of Mr. Boyd's official acts whether as member of the le ture, delegate 1o the consti- tutional convention, mayor of Omaha or governor of Nebr How many men bave occupied seats in congress from which they were ousted? And who has ever undertaken to tion the legality of any hill that became alaw by their vot Who has ever questioned the validity of a pardon by any governor who m be found in- eligible for some r How could any bond once issued and passed out of the hands of the city be invalidated by the fact that the mayor or city clerk who signed them was found, years after- wards, to have been disqualified from holding the office? But it is scarcely worth while to dwell upon the absurdity of the assertions made by Mr. Clarkson’s home organ. It that concern is to be the mainstay of the republican party in Iowa in the coming campaign the party will have to put somebody at its helm wno is en- dowed with at least ordinary horse sense, ques- THE PROFOSED BOND ELECTION. The most important problem with which the council is confronted is the question of holding a special election for the issuance of public improvement bonds and bonds for the purchase of grounds for parks. Under the Australian system special clections are expensive luxuries. The expense is estimated at about $20,000. That, of course, includes the cost of election booths, which will be needed hereafter at every elec- tion and therofore cannot be properly charged up as a special clection expense, On the other hand, it is manifest that a standstill on public works will be a det- riment to the city and leave hundreds of workmen out of employment during the season when they ought to have work. It is also a question whether it would be good policy to hold back with the voting of bonds until November when money will be in active demand and bonds cannot be marketed as they could in the summer—if they could be marketed at any price. This differ- ence in the availability of funds for the spring of 1892 may more than offset the expense of the special election, Moreover it is almost certain that any bond proposition voted at the genoral election in November will not carry by a two-thirds vote of the total number of votes polled. Thousands of voters who are interested in the political contest will not take the trouble to vote on the bond question, If then we are bound to gqto the trouble and expense of a special election next winter, why not do so now and reap the bevefit that would accrue from keeping up improvements that would employ our workingmen and put money into circulation at a time when it is most needed? —_— OMAHA has been more fortunate than most of the cities of the country caping uny of the serious visitations of the epidemic diseases which widely pre- vailed, with uncommonly fatal resalts, during the winter and spring, While the mortality of nearly every large city was largely increased, that of Omaha was about normal. The appeurance of one or two cases of smallpox need cause no publie alarm, but it is the duty of the authorities to use precaution to guard against the spread of the loath- some, though not necessarily dangerous Among the most healthful ies of the country Omaha continues in in ¢ every disease, the first rank and ve close to the head. —_—_—— Tue killing of a little boy who was Jumping op and off the motor cars should suggest to the company 1o instruct em- ployes to exercise the sharpest vigilance in keeping children away from the cars while in motion.

A couple of colored Lincoln dudes gave a very pretty double transformation act in police court yesterday morning. They were arvested Monday on complaint of the Lin- coln authorities. Both men were flashily attired in the v noisiest suits they could find, with silk tiles and swell top coats, but they don'tlook that way now. It secms that they circulated among the colored waiters of the capital city and took orders for suits, requiring a deposit of a fev dollars in ad- vance. In this manner they collected $75 or #30, and then proceeded to blow in the money on clothes for themselues. Yesterday a ropreseutative of the victims came up from Lincoln, and after a conference with the prisoners decided to take everything they had and let them go. Thus it was that the nobby suits, shining tiles, gold-hended canes and umbrellas were turned over to the Lin- coln man, together with the few dollars that yet remained, and the erstwhile dudes were again arrayed in their old clothes, which for- tunately for them they had not discarded. Such a ‘cruel reversion of fortune was enough tomake an angel weep, but the unfeeling horde of court room loungers just opened their faces and laughed in wicked glee as the two Lincolnites faded hastily from view. e QUINN'S QUE T, Professional Workingman Sent Delegate to Cincinnati., The special meeting of tha Central labor union held last night was decidedly hvely, It convened at 7 o'clock and adjourned two hours elater. The purposos was to decide whether ornot as an organization it would send a delegate to the industrial conference that convenes at Cincinnati next Tuesday, This movement was opposed by & number of the members who argued that the conference is to give birth to anew political party and the union by its constitution is probibited from™ going into politics. The men who took this view of the case were in the minority, and were compelled to nurse their defeat. John Quinn, George W. Willard and . W, Browster were placed m nomination. Quinn was the man who was strongly in sympathy with the scheme to send a delegate and was elected. He will go, but he will pay his own ex- penses, as a resolution to appropriate $100 to Lelp him along was snowed under by a large majority. as e Secks Vengeance Only. M. G.
