Let the investigation bo relontless and searching, whatever be its results. DEADWOOD is determined to have a first class hotel. Deadwood needs noth- ing olse half so much. This oxplains why her citizens will contribute $20,000 in cash to any person, firm or corporation that will put up a $100,000 earavansary. Deadwood 15 nothing if not enterprising. GOVERNOR THAYER will not suspend tho officials of the Hastings insane asy- lum, but he consents to the closest possi- ble investigation of the accusations made against them. As it is to be thor- ough and immediate the governor’s posi- tion will not make much difference in the results, WouLD it not be good sense and good policy for the city to donate to tho board of edueution for the Farnam school the adjacent portion of Twenty-ninth streot which has been abandoned? The Far- nam school site s too small. The build- ing will shortly requive enlargement, and this tract of land is much needed. SOMEBODY is wofully neslecting his duties in repairing unpaved streots. It is difficult to fix the blame in a city gov- ernment whero responsibility shifts it- solf so readily. Most of the unpaved stroots are disgracefully out of repairsas a result of rocont ratns, and some city of- ficial should take a hypodermic inje tion of activity in placing them in pas- sable order instend of a 10 days’ leave of absence. THE bill of the newspaper which printed shoriff sale and foreclosure no- ticos in Kansas City last yenr reached the handsome sum of £40,000. Kansas City has suffered more from the reac- tion of the last four years than Omaha, but sho is recovering. Kansas City en- torprise never sleeps, no matter what adversitics come upon hor poople. She now has a fund of $1,000,000 at the dis- posal of vesponsible committee to be used in securing manufactovies. FOREIGN railways ave as enterprising in the pursuit and as eager for the cap- ture of what answers there for tho dollar as those in America. The **Holy Coat,” claimed to be the seamless coat of the Savior is to be exhibited at Trave, August 22, The Rhine railways are aid- ing the church in spreading tho an- nouncement and are prepaving to carry, 40,000 pussengors daily to the great re- ligious gatherings which attend the public exhibition of the sacred relic, THE new warchouse law will greatly affect the grain shipments hereafter, Tho railwavs already seo that if it is adopted, instead of rushing the greater portion of the small grain to market im- mediately after harvest and shipping most of the surplus corn in January, the shipments will be scattered throughout the year. The surpius will be more roadily handled and instead of running empties wost to bo filled by trainloads the merchandise cars sent west will re- turn loaded with geain and a better equilibrium of tratlic will be forthwith established ACCORDING to reports received Washington, the delay in ar closing the sealing s poachers to take 20,000 fur seals, and this is quite as likely to bo under as above the number slaughtered. Anticipating thav an arrangoment for a close souson would be made, the poach- ers made haste to secure all thoy pos bly could, killing indiscriminately, and it is probable they took more in the brief time allowed them for operation than has been taken in this way in any previous season. But they all should by this time have recoived warning to stop soal killing, and at any rate the worst that can be done this year has boen ac- complished. It suggests what would have happenod if the proposal for a modus vivendi had failod, justifying the opinion of experts that the seal would have beon nearly exterminated by the and of the season if the poachers had scen allowed freo way. at anging for pason enabled the NEBRASKA'S YEAR If all signs do not fall, tho year 1891 will be one of the most memorable in its contribution to the material prosperity of Nebraska. Two yoars ago this state produced the largest corn erop in its his- tory, but in other respacts the agricul- tural results of that year wore not ex- ceptional. The promise of the present year is highly favorable for nearly all crops, and if it is realized the aggre- gate value of our agricultural resource with the enhanced pr n to pro- vail for the noxt yenr, undoubt- edly be very much than was that of two ago There has been com= plaint from portions of stato of too much rain and in tho corn is reported to be backward, but it is quite impossible to have a season of absolutely perfect conditions, and if the average is higher than usual we should be satisfied. This is certainly the case with rogard to small grains, and thers is little renson to fear that it will not prove to be so with respect to corn. A duplication of the unprecedented crop of 1880 is not to be expected, but undoubt- edly the crop will be larger than that of last year and it is assured that every bushel of it will represent more monoy for the produc: There is but one condition marring bright outlook for Nobraska'’s pro- es, and that is the transportation rates. If these wore reduced to a point which would still leave a fair profit to the Hs the farmers of this state could look forward to the ensuing year as almost certain to bring them a mensure of prosperity greater than they ever ro- alized in any preceding year. Tuis is snt requirement necessary to ronder the promise of the year entirely clear and shadowless, and it would seem that the state board of transportation would see the wisdom of giving this mat- ter its earnest attention without further delay. There is no valid roason why this transportation ques- tion should not at once receive the consideration which its eroat importance in relation to the intercsts and welfare of Nobraska demands for it. As Tk Bee has herctofore said an abundant harvest will emphasize the demand for lower rates more than ever, and although this demand may be ignored for a time, it must finally bo heeded. Why not give it attention now 50 that when the havrvest comes the pro- ducers of this state can have the advan- tages of reduced rates? The promised conditions are most favorable to action of this kind, tho party in powor is pledged to give the producers lower rates, and the authority of the board of transportation is unquestioned. From every point of view a grave mistake will be made if rates are not reduced bofore the growing crop is ready for market. Large crops in Nobraska this year will mean not only an immediate in- crense of prosperity for every interest in the state, but the beginning of a new ern of progress thot will bring a large pormanent addition to the productive forces and the wealth of the state. They will not only place our produc in a position to relievo themselves of a considerable part of the burden of 1n- dobtedness which has been oppressing them for the past fow years, but will fur- nish such reassurance of tho capabili- ties of Nebraska as cannot fail to at- tract both population and capital. Tho fullest benefits to our. farmers of good crops will not be realized, however, un- loss transportation rates shall be made more favorable, ana while nature is do- ing so well for our farmers the trans- portation board should not fail of its duty. s cer will larger yoars some the sections nas the one ur THE W4 An obseure weekly newspaper at Lin- coln, which claims to represent the farmers of Nebraska, has the infinite as- surance to attack the merits of the new warehouse law and presumes to say that itsadvantages to tho farmor are doubtful, because of the expense incident to its enforcement. The sole cause of this exhibition of spleen, for it is nothing but spleen, is the fear on tho part of a narrow minded ed- itor that possibly Omaha may profit somewhnt by the workings of the law, and THE BEE receive some cradit for advising farmers and others of the ben- ofits to bo derived therefrom. The most serious difficulty which has presonted itself to the Nebraska farmer asido from the question of grain rates, has been the unfairgrading of Nebraska grain in the Chieago markets, and so in the markets of the world. All grain ex- ported from this stato passes an inspoc- tion and, of course, the cost of that in- speotion is paid by the producer. If the inspectors aro appointed in Nebraska the cost of inspoction is not incroased and the farmer will bo directly benefited by a fairer grading of his product. It is all nonsense to say that the warehouso bill will impose new burdens upon the farmer. On the contrary it raises an cmbargo which, by low grading, has ser- iously opprossed Nebraska grain grow- ers. Under the new law the inspection 1s mado in our own elovators instead of those in tho eastern markets and wo should have a standard which all grain dealers will accept and on which pur- chases and sales will be made. The farmer now pays the storage charges, either in the reduced prico paid for his grain by the local dealer, or indirectly to the eastern warehouse men, While paying these charges ho realizes no advantage from the storage in improved markets. He is forced under the ut system to soll his product either from want of granaries or to meet prossing necessities REHOUSE LAW. stord ro pros regardiess of the condition of the mar- ket. Ho isat tho merey of the dealers in Chicago vorner the vl harvest shipments o ut the marke with ove He must take the price offered him whother it bs remuns tive or otherwise, dor the new law a systom of ware- veceipts is ostablished which be- who may ¢ shipmonts, hous: come negotiable credits tobo used oit in muking salos direct or as colluteral for loans at bank. A similar law is in reo in Tlinols, New and other statos, and its advantages are acknowl- edged by intelligent people everywhor Thoe new law not only enables the furmor to market his grain at will, instead of boing forced to ship at low prices whon York his judgment and experionce assures him a better market later fn the year, but it builds up local grain storuge cen- ters and will eventually make of Omaha tho grain market of the west. Any man too blind to see the advantages of the now systom of handling grain, is either a knave or an ignoramus and it matters vory little which. His opinion in either case is worthless, Tne Ber will continue to point out the advantages which are certain to ace crue if the system is adopted. Tt will urge local alliance leaders to abandon a part of their politics and their vagaries so as to give this pre tical subject attention. If the farmers do not care to pay storage to their local elovator men they ean build their own elevators and warehouses and save to themselves both storage and insurance. There is more to be gained by taking advantage of the warehouse law than in listening to the platitudinous cant of king delegates without business sense or honesty. also SENATOR SHERMAN. The Ohio republican platform com- mands tho patriotic sorvices of Senator John Sherman, and at the recent stato convention the distioguished statosman was reived with enthusinstic manifes- tations of esteem. Yot Senator Sh man has enomics among the repub! ans of Ohio who would be glad of the op- portunity to retire him from public life. He has not boea able to satisfy every- body. and some of thosa whoso resent- ment he has incurrod are relentless. There are aspiring politicians who think he had enough of honors and ought to step aside for some other man. There are others who are hostile to his financial views and would like to remove from him the op- portunity to oxert his strong influence in shaping the poli of the govern- ment. The legislature to be elected in Ohio this year will choose a successor to Senator Sherman, and because of the elements in his own party opposed to him there is greater uncertainty re- garding the choice of a republican legis- lature than there is of the election of the republican state ticket. The mal- contents understand that if a republican legislature 1s chosen it will almost cer- tainly re-olect Senator Sherman, and hence they are likely to cast their votes for democratic legislative candidates. Those farmers who are identifying them- selves with the third party movemont, mainly bocause of their opposition to the financial views of Sherman, are protty sure to cast their votes for democratic candidates. The republicans of Ohio can better afford to loose their state ticket than to allow Senator Shorman to be sacri- ficed. Heis of far more value to the party in the national senate than Maujor MeKinley could possibly be in the office of governor. They may be able to win the battle, but just now it appears to be probable that they will loose the legis- lature, and if they could be advised by the party at large they would concen- trate their greatest efforts upon legis lative candidates. To replace Senator Sherman with a democrat, particularly if he should be of the Brice standard, would be a political misfortune not alone for Ohio but for the count Senator Sherman needed where he is. and there has perhaps never been greater need for him there than there is at This is roalized not only by republicans evecy- where who appreciate his great ability, but by others who are not in sympathy with him politically. The New York Evening Post says of him: *Inripe ex- perience as a public man, in proved qualifications for the senatorship, in ob- vious fitness to render the state effective service during the next few years in that office, no Ohio republican is for a moment to be thought of in compari- son with John Sherman. If the sober judgment of members of the party throughout the vountry could be pronounced, it would prove all but unanimous in the opinion that the best intorests of the nation dictate his re- olection. Nay, more; even those demo- crats who most strongly oppose his position on the taviff will concede that if any republican is to be choson, he is the man who ought to have the piac The caso is so plain and strong that there is no room left for argument.” Testimony of this kind regarding the claims of Senator Sherman, from a journal which is uncompromisingly hostile to his tariff views, and which probably could not be induced to say as much for any other republican, ought to have greut weight with Ohio republic- It avtests the commanding position which Senator Sherman ocou- pios as a statesman and the groat confi- dence that is folt in him by thoughtful men outside his own-party, and surely Ohio cannot afford to permit such a man to be retired at 1 time when the demand is most urgent for the ablest men in con- gress of sound financial views. The most vital part of the Ohio contest, viewing it broadly, relates to the sena- torship, and upon this the republicans of that state should concentrats their greatest zoal and onergy. This they will do if they vegard tho best judgment of the party elsowhere, has is ans.

THE Douglas street grade is again de- layed by the inexcusable blundering of the board of pubtic works, which failed to advortise for proposals according to law. The costs of the blunder will not be charged to the salary account of the chairman of tho blundering board, however, It is hardly faif for the chairman of tho board of public works to shift the responsibility of his own blunders to the shoulders of his séeretary, who ontered upon his duties June 1. The advertise- ments were inserted in the official papor June 2, 8, and 4. IF the city council will maintain its present gait, it will redeom many for- mer faults. It is lately attending strictly to business. THE BEE rogrets that it cannot' say as much for some other branches'of the city goverdment. A NEBRASKA stock growor is now en- route to Liverpool with 600 head of stock fed upon Nebraska corn. This is the style of advertising which convinces the world that Nebraska is the best state in the American union.

New York Recorder (rep.): William Me- Kinley’s address in accopting the commission of the republicans of Ohio as their standard bearer i the campaign of 1801 is an olaborato exposition of the record, principles and aspi- rations of tho republican’ party. New York Times (mug.): “‘Brag said in the old adage, “is o good dog, but Holdfast is a bottor.” Tho republicans of Ohio, with the cvident consciousness of opening the campnign of 1802, started out yesterday with “Brag” and left *Holdfast t0 follow as he chooses.

Boston Advertiser (rep.): The Ohio re- publican convention is attracting much at- tention this vear, not because of uny doubtas to the result, but becauso the nomination of Major McKinley is Ohio's protest against the unfair gerrymandering by which the states- man was oeaten at the last election. Chicago Inter-Ocean (rep): In William McKinley is embodied to an ideal extent all that 1s distinotly republican. Every drop of his blood is republican.

It is not probable that their experiences under the law have changed the convictions of the Ohio voters. Phitadelphia Record (dem): In nomimat- ing Mr. McKmley for governor the Ohio re- publicans have dono the obvious and proper thing.

The State Board of Transportation Should and Must Do Its Duty to the bducers of This State." The following expressions of opinion the Nobraska situations have been recaived in response to Tie Ber's roquost very politician in thestato is vitally interested in theso lotters, They are well worthy of ciro- ful perus on INominate Good Men. Bearuice, Nob., Juno 21.—[Special to Ty 1 have read Mr. Rosewator's editor rdof May 28, entitled “Tho Path to Salvation.” There s no doubt that the ro publican party has in somo rospects failod to keep full paco with tho noeds of tho times, and to redoom its pledges in somo important particulars, and the rude shaking up that it received last fall was a wholosome lesson, by which, I trust, the party will protit. he fauits of the republican party, ever, have been thoso of omission and' not of commission. Thore has beon the failure to adopt some moasures and to do some ucts which its platform had pledged, or which the progross of the ago demanded. There should, undoubtedly, have beon, for instanco, an wot of congress establishing postal telegraphy. Thero should have beon tho very promptost and extromest measures to put down “trusts'’ and all combinations to nit production . and increase tho cost of liviny The question of tho transportation of tho great staple products of the country should Lave been handled foarlessly, promptly, but cautiously, to the end that justice should be done alike to the people and to the railronds, the producer, the carrior and the consumer, for their riglits are equal, their interests are identicul, Thus in some particulars tho re- publican party has lageed somowhat, vot I think it will be found that the main ‘support of these and all mattors of reform have come from the republican varty, and that the fail- uro to adopt tho same has been owing to the almost solid_opposition of the democratic party. Ou the other hand all the good legis- lation of the past thirty vears has been the work of the republican party, the result of many a hard fought political * battle before tho people and in the halls of legislation. I do not apprehend danger of tho dissolu- tion or ultimato defeat of the republican ty in Nebraska, or in the nation. That purty coutains tho great bulk of the bran and brawn of the progressive element of the people of the United States. Its failure to meet all pledees and its temporary defeay have ulike been the result of apathy. There has been failure to attend tho primarios and to secure the nomination of the best men to tho legislature and to all offices, The party machinery has in many instances been al- lowed to et into the control of inferior and unfit men who have used it to further, of courso, their owr solfish _ends. The remody for this sonal attention and_attendance at the prima ries; see to it that good men are nominated and then support them at the polls and aftor- word let there bo a_healthy public opinion that will make it impossible for a representa- tive to betray his constituents and afterward live in the community he has misrapresented und all will beright. I do not think it would be advisablo to call an extra session or the logislature. In fact, I have not yet been able to concoive of a con” dition of things that would justify the call- & torethor of that body. Its assembled as- sininity was a menace to all the business and material interests of the state, from the evil effects of which we shall bo fortunate, and should be devoutly thanikful, 1f we recover in ten years. Its final adjournment caused a thrill of satisfaction from ocean to ocean, and a sigh of relief that shall not for some time cense 1o reverberate down the corridors of time. No, aow't lev us have any mora of i Wo should have, must have, and surcly will have such action by the stato bourd of transportation as will give fair rates of freight on farm products to eastern market and on the main staples from caster mackets to our doors. This is demanged as well in the interest of the people as of the railroaas. Neither of the maximum_ froight bills before the legislature last winter were in the interests of the people of Nebraska. The net result of cither of these bills, had it bocame law, would have been to increnso the cost of getting our farm produce to Chi New York, or other markoets outside of brasku, and to increase the cost of gotting all kinds of merchandise from thoso oastern markets to Nebraska. The fact was that the logislature did not know anything at all about what would be the practical result of the adoption of tho bills in question, nor were any steps taken to obtain any information on the subjoct. No comparison was mado of the schedules in those bills with the existing schedules. The legislature simply “went it blind.”” The con- stituencies were supposed to insist on a max- imum froight law and the memoors would vote for one, good, bad or indifferent. The question was not’ taken up until most of the sossion had been fooled and frittered away and thero remained not sufticient time for the in- telligent consiaeration of a measure of such importance. Atthat stage 1t would have been a much better plan _to have appointed a commission to thoroughly investivato the subject and formulate o schedulo for the con- sideration of a futuro legislatura or for adop- tion by the state buard of transportation, There is o ground for the starting of a new party. Great parties cannot be made vy the process known to dissatisfied and dis- gruntled politicians, but for the foundation of such a party thero must bo some great li ing principle” denied by existing partics, a principle, too, that appeals to human nature, to all men altko. Such was the great prin: ciple of human liberty, of ovposition 10 the spread of slavery, that called the republican party into existouce, that enlisted the ablost minds and warmest hearts in its cause. The provosed new party, farmers’ alliance, indopendent or people’s party, stands on 1o such ground and itis simplv'an azerogation of the elements of discoutent engendered by the monetary stringency of tho times, and being such, & good crop and good prices and the good times that will surely follow will melt it away like frost beforo a July sun.
