HAMILTON county will make Gover- nor Campbell wish he had never become a democrat beforo and aftor election. The split in the party so far as Hamil- ton county, Ohio,is concerned is irrepar- able. THERE is probably no significance whatever in the fact that the capitalist of the newspaper syndicate which pro- poses to run a New York and Boston paper in Chicago is named Green and obtains his capital by inheritance. HARVESTERS are scarce. All the im- plement men in the west agree that they have been unsble to secure enough binders to supply the demand. In view of the large number of binder manufa turies this is rather remarkable and suggests the possibility that the manu- facturers are simply working off old stock preparatory to a reorganization of the trust with a view to manufacturing but one kind of harvester, TAST winter an act was passed by the legislature providing that the road- houses and saloons within the three wile limit should be compelled to pay a license of 500 per annumn, and placed upon the commissioners tho duty of pro- viding for the collection of this license. There are probably fifty saloons within the territory named, but thus far no licenses have beon issued. What do the commissioners propose to do about it. CALIFORNIA protests against being shut out of the chiofship of the depart- ment of horticulture at the world’s fair and offers through the state hoard of trade to be satisfied with the selection of any one of four gentlemen named, These aro J. De Bath Shorb, a viticul- turist of Pasadena; Frank Kimball, an all vound fruit grower of San Diego; Elwood Cooper, an olive grower of Santa Barbara, and George A. Fleming of San Jose. This is something like business and the board of control may give the goldon state another chance. Tue state of Alabama last year pro- duced more iron ore than Pennsyl vania. A decade ago the southern state stood seventh in the list of iron- producing states and the output of Pennsylvanin was twelve timos as large as that 8 Alabama, These facts illus- trate the wonderful growth of the latter state in this branch of industry and suggest the possibilities of the futuve. From the census figul the indications are that the future centers of iron pro- duction will be Puget sound on the Pu- cific coast, Birmingham, enst Tennesseo and North Carolina in the south and the Pittsburg region in the north. SENATOR CAREY of Wyoming, who has been traveling through the west, takes a hopeful view of the political out- look from the splendid condition of the crops. Ho remarks that farmers have stopped talking politics and have bogun to talk business, und that they are be- g ioning also to look with distrust upon those professional politicians who are willing that others should toil and spin | while they wear the purple and fine hinen. Years of bountiful harvests and general prosperity are not favorable to democratic victories or the growth of new purties. These prosper on poor crops and commorcial depression. FASY VIOTORY The Ohio republicans ought to win an and signal victory this year. The situation is altogether in their favor. | The dissensions in the domocratic ranks | ave 50 serious that it will hardly be pos- sible to harmonize the party. The bit- ter feeling manifestod at the state con- | vention clearly demonstrated that the | factional hostility is too bitter to permit | the party to “get together.” There are tens of thonsands of democrats who will not support Governor Campbell on per- sonal grounds, and there are other | thousands who will withhold their votes | or give them to the ropublicans because of the attitude of the party regard- ing silver. Moreover all Ohio demo- crats are not opposed to the tariff. There is a very considerable element in the y that favoes moderate protec- tion, and these will not endorse by their | votes the platform enunciation regard- ing the tariff. For one reason and an- other it would not be surprising if the democratic defection in Ohio this year should reach 50,000, but whether it may s to he as- ’ OUGHT TO BE 4 i | on be republican success appes sured. The issue on the democratic side is the record of Governor Campbell’s ad- ministration. This is shown by the speech of the governor to the conven- tion after the nomination which was almost whoily taken up with a defense of his administration. The ropublicans will not avoid this issue, and they will be able to show that the aims of Governor Campbell will stand a great deal of correction. They will arraign the governor for the strictly par- tisan way in which he has used tho pub- lic institutions of the state and the de- moralizing effects of his policy regard- ing them. His boast of economy will be shown to be groundless, and he will be justly held responsible for the infamous gerrymander of the congressional di tricts, which he had the power to pre- vent. So faras this of the gov- ernor’s record is concerned, therefore, the republicans of Ohio could desire nothing better on whith to ms a campuign. They will not confine the solves to this, however, but will force the aemecrats to discuss national i and in this also, the advautage is with the republicans. No party can carry Ohio on an anti-tariff and free coinage of ver platform. The insincerity of the Buckeye democrats is on a par with that of their Towa brethren in the matter of making a sweeping denunciation of the appropriations of the last congress, and at the same time professing to desire liberal pensions for disabled soldiers and sailors and their widows and orphans. Of the $170,000,000 incrense in the appropriations of the last congress $113,000,000 was for pensions. The re- publican party has not professed an in- terest in the old soldier and then denied him just consideration, as was done by the last democratic administration. It has kept its promise, and the amount of money required to do this constitutes two-thirds of the increase in the appro- priations of the last congress. The republicans of Ohio have every- thing on their side in this campaign, and possess tho very great advantage of being well organized and entirely har- monious, It is sate to predict a signsl republican victory in Ohio this year. ssue n- sues THE REAL ESTATE OWNERS. The promoters of the Real Estate Owners’ association are gratified at the success which has thus far attended their efforts to interest the owuers of veal property in an organization more general in its character than either the board of trade or real estate oxchange, It is essentially the people’s association. Its membership is lavger than that of either of the old organizations, and it is no close corporation, The man with a singlo lot who buys a share of stock has just as much influence as the million- aire, in proportion to his investment. It in nowise conflicts with the plans or pur- poses of eithor the board of trade or real estate exchange, but is intended to supplement their efforts for the upbuild- ing of the city. There is a vast amount of work in this dependent upon public spirit and organized enterprise. Ilach of the sev- eral organizations will find plenty to do and all working together for a common purpose will make their usefulness felt. To achieve complete success the Real Estate Owners’ association must have the moral support and the substantial recognition of the people at large. Thus far o gratifying interest has been mani- fested, but other citizens must onlist and contribute cash to bring about many de- sired rosults. The oflicers are devoting their time unselfishly to the associution. They do- sorve the support of the community. Let the people rally about them and en- able the organization to accomplish its beneficent purposes. DAMAGING TO Mit. CLEVELAND. The democrats of two of the most im- portant states that hold elections this year, Iowa and Ohio, have declared in favor of the free and unlimited coinage of silver. This is a damaging blow to the prosidential aspirations of M Grover Cleveland. When some time ago Mr. Cloveland gave renewed testi- mony of his hostility to free coinage the intention undoubtedly was to influence the action of the democrats of these states on this question. Obviously it was felt to be important that the west- ern demoeratic constituencios should un- derstand that the ex-presidentand claim- ant was still standing where he had stood during his administrations as to this quostion. These constituencies wore s00n to express themselves, and it was desiruble that they should have the counsel of the leader. The result shows that the counsel was without effect. It is true that in the Ohio democratic convention 800 votes were t against the free coinage plank of the platform, but it is by no means to be assumed that all of these votes rep- resented hostility to the policy. Itis more probable that the demoerats who | voted this way did so from w conviction that it would be 1mpolitic to take a po- sition on the question at this time. At any rate the democracy of Ohio, as ' of lowa, stands committed to the free and unlimited coinage of silver, and in thisit is in accord with the sentiment of the southern wing of the party. The fact is now entirely clear that the controlling forces in the THE OMAHA DAILY BEE | democratic party are in favor of opening the mints of tho country to the silver of the world, The demociats of the south and of the wost are entirely harmonious on this question, and they will dictats the action of the next national conven- tion. What chance will there be, then, for M+, Cleveland? He has made a servation that may enable him to stand on a free coinage platform a year hence, in saying that the conditions at that time may bo such to warrant experimenting with this policy, but hoe could not do this without the cortainty of losing New York, and that state will b absolutely nocessary to democratic success next vear. It is entirvely plain that N no longer has the firm hold upon his party that he once had, and there is no reason to suppose that he will recover what he has lost. The free discussion of other leaders as presidential possibili- ties is significant of a widespread ton- dency to cut loose from the ex-president, and this is very likely to grow. The free coinn declarations of the lown and Ohio democracy have ¢ ainly di- minished the chances of Mr. Cleveland for ngain leading the democracy in a national campaign. as A CONTRIBUTOR to the controversy regarding the preference of Mr. Lincoln in the mattor of the vice presidency in 1864 points out the interesting which has a great deal of rele that the convention of that year was not a republican convention but was called a union national convention. The dele- gates consisted of *‘war democrats” as well as republicans, and cortain of the :ded states were roprosentod. This necessitated, in the view of the writer, the nomination of a war democrat for the second place and therefore procluded wholly the nomination of Hamlin. This is certainly plausible, and the writer who presents it adduces very zood testi- mony in support of it. But there is still sidence to conclusively show that . Lincoln was partial to Johnson, although ho was undoubtedly well pleased with his selectlon. CREIGHTON college is one of the edu- cational institutions of which Omaha is justly proud. The meople regret the de- parture of its late president, Father Fitzgerald, who is not only a most ex- cellent man, but a thorough organizer, a good educator and a gentleman who wins the sympathies of his students. The rules of his order take him to another position as president of St. [gnatius col- lege, Chicago. In his place, however the Omaha college receives Rev. Father Hoeffer of St. Louis, a man in the prime of life, of great energy and scholarly at- tainments. He will take up the good work where his popular predecessor left it and push Creighton college onward in its career to a foremost position among the educational institutions of the west. THURSDAY, August 20, will be a red- letter day in Omaha. On that occasion the grain men of Nebraska will be the guests of the Omaha board of trade. Long before that date it is expected the Omaha grain exchange will be formally opened and the visiting dealers and warehousemen will be initiated into the methods of the new grain market. TWhe live stock shippers will probably visit Omaha at the same time. It will bea great business convention and do much to encourage that good fecling which should exist between the business men of the state and those of Omaha. THOSE two public spirited gentlemen who resigned from the bourd of directors of the Omaha board of trade to enable the organization to replace them with grain men and further the enterprise of building up a great grain market here, deserve the commendation which their public spirited and unselfish action has drawn from the business public gener- ally. It may be remarked that the bus- iness men referred to are among the most industrious and energetic members of the board of trade. FINANCIAL encouragement to mavu- factories should be given sparingly and turn for definite benefits, Man- 5 who come here for bonusus instead of business ave not the style ot business men who are iikely to succeed. The expenso of removing a successful plant and reasonable encouragemont in the wayof locations at minimum cost are about all that the citizens should be expected to contribute toward establish- ing such enterprises in Omaha. It 15 ouly fair to state in connection with the fact that Dr. Gapen is drawing two salaries that the doctor called the attention of the council to the conflict between the city ordinance creating the office of city physician and fixing the salary at $2,400 per annum and the charter provision for a commissioner of health at $2,000 per ammum in a com- munication to that body several weoks ago. .

The smoke consumer selected may be the best, but inasmuch as most of the several hundred devices for con- suming smoke ave of doubtful utility this one should be thoroughly tested be- fore it is purchased, OMAHA'S mining exchange has boen organized. Thore is no good reason why it shall not become an important factor in the business of the city.

GOVORNOR THAYER will no doubt ac- cent the suggestion of the Omuha board of trade 1n rogard to the appointment of state grain inspector. The inspector should be an experienced grain man and not a politician, e — Wit new blood injected into the hitherto sluggish veins of the Omaha board of trade more activity may be ex- pected in that organization. THE Montana excursion will be ar- ranged for, nad the best business men in the city only will feel that they are in- vited to participate. o1 t1 to 26 are the dates fixed for the Omaha exposition. Now iet everybody join hands to insure success to the enterprise, OMAHA’s schools should not be an- nexed by purchase, sale or exchange to the American hook trust.

Senator Allison’s romark that the crops aro good in Towa this year is politically of much significance. Republican prospects and the crops move together. As the buzzard beto- kens carrion, so a democratic victory tells of hard times and industrial gloom. D gmgmente Perverse Producers, Denver Sun. The Towa farmers are an obstinately and wickedly pervorse set. Governor Boics told thom some months ago that thoy lost $8 an acre on every acre of corn they planted. But they have gone blndly to work and planted 700,000 more acres of that plebian variety of grain this year than over before. Ohio's Political Elements. Cincinnatt Commercial. Wo are ready to acknowledge that the worst, elements of the Ohio democracy have been arrayed agaiist Governor Campbell. But that is not suflicient reason for his elec- tion. The best elements of Ohio citizenship are in favor of McKinley—a sontiment that stands for socinl peace and prosperity. LR A Henry Watterson on Dave Hill, Loutsville C wrier-Journal, The editor of the Courier-Journal has not the smallest personal dislike of Governor Hill. If the governor and hig friends are sat. isfied with the episode referred to, assuredly Mr. Watterson has no desire to disturb their equanimity. In the meantime, however, he does not rezard the governor as & probable, perhaps not even a possible, democratic nom- inee for president in 1802 and for the follow- ing reasons: Thesn reasons condensed are: 1. That thero is a widespread feeling, unfounded though it be, that Cloveland was defeated by some doal in New York with which Hill was connected. Those who beliove this may be turned from following after Cleveland, but they will not support Hill. 1n 1880 the party relinquished Samuel J. Tilden. But it did rally to John Kelly. The cases now and then are, of course, not parallel, and yot there is likeness enough to make the one serve to point the moral of the other. 2. Governor Hill is not in sympathy with the great democratic movement for tax re- form. Whore be stands now, that tho issue be universlly accepted by domocrats and made explicit und clear, 15 still doubtful, but during thestrugele, when there were encmies inside the party, Governor Hill was the enemy of progress. Governor Hill will be felt in the next demo- cratic convention, but on the side of destruc- tion, not of creation. He may hope to dofeat Clevelund and make New York decide tho final result. This must leave the governor in the unpleasant role of a managing politician —cold, unfecling, vengeful and narrow—un- cqual to the requirements of the hour or the inspirations of his party and the peoplo— morely a selfish, short-sighted man, incapable of sacrifices, or geuerous impulse, or large conceptions of any sort. Governor Hill is not o likelihood for the nomination. For any hope for that he must show himself a better man than the country thus far believes him to be. Governor Hill knows as little of public affairs and men oS Cloveland did on coming to the presidency, but is said to be a bright man. In that case he may yot profit in time by the kindly, though unpleasant counsel given him. e LIKE His M : HER MADE, James W hitcamb Riley.

Lixcory, Neb., July 16.—[Special to Tur Bre.]—Shortly before 1 o'clock this morning the fire department was hurriedly cailed to Eighth and P streots by a blaze in the feed ana salo stablo of .. W. McFadden, immedi- ately ning the Tremont hotel on the south, When the firemen arrived the stable was a mass of {lame, and their efforts were centered on saving the hotel, which was in most imminent dacger. The tnflammable 1 terial caused a terrivly hot blaze, and it was with diffeulty the firemen could work. The fire was undoubtedly of incendiary origin, and was started at the foot of an en- closed stairway the south yard of the hotel and which winds around Yo the eastside. As the stairway was onclosed all the way, it acted as a chimney for the flames, which entered the east door of the hallway and fol lowed it all the way to the north end of the hotel. The heat was so intenso that the paint all the way was melted, and the furniture and mouldings blistered and discolored by smoke. The guests of the hotel had very narrow! escapes. The flames raging in tho hallway on the second story provented those in the rooms on the third floor from getting out, and a half dozen or more were rescued in their night clothes by the firemen and taken to the ground on laaders Those in the second story rooms were also in a dangerous preaicament, and one man, & railroader, who had retired a few hours pre- vious after a long run, came near being suf- focated. He was so sleepy that he had to be rolled on the floor before he could be awak- ened. A number of others haa narrow es- capes, and singed moustaches are the fashion at the Tremont today. The livery stable was completely gutted, and twelve horses and one mule burned alive. Among the horses destroyed was Bob Mitchell’s $600 stallion pacer, four head be- longing to the Liucoln bottling works, one horse belonging to the Globe white lead works, one to Arenson Brothers, grocers on South Ninth street, two horses belonging to McFadden, and three transients ownod by farmers who had put up their animals for the night, The mule belonged to John Noland. McFadden estimates his loss at 500, with no insurance. The building wus owned by Georgo Smith, and is insured for $1,200. The damage to the ‘fremont hotel, owned by Bob Smith, is about 500, Mcladden saved his buggy and harcess in a peculiar manper. A man came along last evening with a fino buggy and put his horse up. He objected to letting his vehicle stand outside, fearing it would rain, and McFadden accommodatingly shoved his own outside to make room for it. As a consequence the stranger's bugey, along with threo other vehiclos, was burned. BATTLE CRREEK BANK AFPAIRL J. F. Tetdgens, a weaithy farmor of Madi- son county and director and vice president of the Farmers and Drover's bank of Battlo Creek, Neb., was in the city today endeavor- ing to secure such a settlement of the affairs of the bank as would enablie that ivstitution to reorganize. Teidgens camo forward at a critical time, advanced £5,0)0 in an effort to pay off the demand of depositors and has ex- erted himself in other ways to preservo the eredit and character of the bank., An iuves- tigation showed that Mr. Maxwoll, as presi- dert, and in general charge of the bank has, however, so exhausted the resour of the institution to meet demands upon him por- sonally and as a member of the firm of Max- well, Sharpe & Ross company that there seems 1o be no other way than to place the bank in the hands of a recoiver. From the best information that can boe obtained from the banking department itis thought that sufficient, assets remain 1o pay the depositor's claims but that little, if any, will remain for the stockholders. BURNED WITI GASOLINE. The dwelling house at 2043 J street, nceu- pied by George H. Kingham, a carpenter, was badly damaged by fire at an early hour this morning. Mrs. Kingham is away from home, and her husband has been doing the cooking for himself and children. This morning he attempted to start, & firc in tho gasoline stove, whon an explosion occured, the burniugoil flying al! over him. All his attention was devoted to putting out the fire on his person, and by the time he had suc: ceeded the room was enveloped in Mr. Kingham was painfully,but not serivusly burned. The house is owned by Lash Broth- ers, and the damage is fully covered by in- surance. Mr. Kingham loses about $300. THEY DON'T HITCH, There has been a little hitch between the state board of agriculture and the local asso- ciation. The board wishes the awphitheater at the race track enlarged, and claim that this comes under the contract with the ex- position association, which agreed to make necessary improvements, This work the as- sociation declines to do, claiming that unnecessary, and was 10U A0ng the sp cations of the contract by which the fair was to located here. AN INSANE SON. Considerable excitement was created at the Burlivgton depot this morning by the queer actions of a well dressed young wman accom- panied by an elderly gentleman. They ar- rived this morning from Omaha, where the oung man has been undergomg treatment at the St. Joseph hospital. The elderly man’s name is John Ryan, and the young man is his son Patrick. ‘I'ne young fellow was a school ar Exeter last winter, and was prostrated by an attack of the grip. Ho became insane, but judicious treatment partially restored his reason and his father was taking him to his home at Exeter. At the depot his queer actions causod a crowd to gather round him when the young mun grew excited, then violent. He was taken tothe sta- tion by OfMcer Malone and confined v_lulll the train left. After his incarceration in a cell he kept up a continuous howling, more like?| a wild beast than a human being. His poor father told the story to the officers with the tears stremming down his choeks. WETURNED TILE GOODS. Miss Sadio Vick was arrested last evening on a warrant sworn out by (. C, Warner of 2343 U street charging her with the la Iy of some dresses from the family where she had been employed. 1t is stated that pact of the goods taken were found in her possession and the balance at her home, She returned the goods, and as Mr. Warner did not care 10 prosecute she was rcleased on payment of the costs. adjc AN INQUEST HELD. An inquest was held this morning over the remains of Marion W. Ubl, who died Sunduy from the effects of a builet wound in tho bead.
