Conserva- tive estimates placo the value of the crops this year atnot less than $100,- 000,000. Add to this the value of the hogs and cattle, the products, and other sources of revenue to the and the sum total will figures greator than have ever wlized in single year in the history of the state.

A revival in all departments of enterprise would seem to be inevitable. It will not come in the nature of a boom, nor is ii desirable that it should, but will have a steady, legitimate and healthy growth. The next year ought to witness, and doubtless will, a consid- evable addition to the population of Ne- braska and a lavge inflow of capital secking investment. No wostern state offer: inviting or favorable oppor- tuniti Nowhere is there greater cer- tainty of good crops to reward the indus- try of the farmer, and the country of which the chief city of Nebraska is the motropolis possesses boundless possibil- ities.

In the acrimonious porsonal contro- versy between the commissionar of In- dian affairs and the officials of the Cath- olic bureau of Indinn missions at Wash- ington, THE BEE takes no interest. So far as the country at lavge is concerned it is & matter of no consequence whether the commissioner contracts with the Catholic bureau or with the teachers of the church schools. Naturally enough the *eader wonders why a burenu of Catholic Indian missions should be maintained in Washington a thousand miles from the nearest Indian tribe, He apprehends, however, the institution is there for the purpose of securing gov- ernment aid for its missions among the Indians from congress and the Indian department, and that so far this hus been legitimate, He does not earo to o into the subject farther in conneetion with this paetieular burean or to inquire why there should not also be a Protost- ant bureuu of Indian missions. The great fact that this government is annvally donatin, half a million dollnrs to the several religious denomin- ation for sectarians purposes is the one which ever American s interested, Whether Commissioner Morgan dis- eriminates in favor of Protestanism or Catholicism in the aistribution of this monay importanca than the knowledge that the United States gov- ornmont is violating the principles of the constitution in awarding public funds toeither Protestants or Catholics or both, The government should courage missionary endeavor among the part of the effort f their should puy one nversion to any re over is of less on- savages civilization, but it not dollar toward their ligious dogma, Protestant or Cath The evangelization of this raco is tho business of the churches and they should pay the cost of it.

The government must ate tend Lo its logitimate business and relig- ious instruction is entirely out of its line. The appropriations for Indian educa- tion have increased from $20,000 in 1877 to $1,842,770 in the fiscal yeoar 1801 During this period, the Indian depart- ment in its anxiety to imorove the con- dition of the wards of the government, has encouraged the religious tions to in their A systom of contract schools has grown up and unquestionably has accomplished much good among the Indians. government probably had no suspicion st advancemont. churches and seck to denomina- education, The that it would sea the day when it should its liborality the warring of christianity or that the amounts would rench ormous propo in #0 brief a period.

When creeds collide and churches become involved in con- tests for cash or converts, the avarice of humanity, the ambition for power, and the hatred of fanaticism are all likely to manifest themselves. The fact that some denominations recoived largo and others small sums awakened jealousies and brought upon congress a flood of discussion of the merits of religious or- ganizations whict in this country was never before experienced. The Protestants woere dissatisfied bo- use the Catholics were educating the larger numberof Indian children and recelving the greater partof the con- tract school fund from the gov- ernment, The Catholies, on the other hand, wore keenly alive to any sugges- tion of danger either in congress, the Indian oftice or the field, to-the systom they had organized and the government was helping them to maintain. The secular world looked on with disgust and marveled at the feeling wh Christians exhibited over the subject and decided that the circumstances were a conclusive proof and striking il- lustration of the evils of uniting church and state even in so small a dogree. The newspapors of the country partici- pated in the interest which the sects had aroused and Indian education be. came a topic of every day discussion throughout the union. The sccts were temporarily succossful at lenst, and congress put a rider into the Indianap- propriation bill directing the interior department to expend no than $535,000 of this year’s appropriation in the support of the contract or’sectarian schools.

Statistics show that the male - popula- tien of the civilized world is falling far- ther and farth behind the female, Aceording to the last British census the oxcess of women and givls over men and boys in Great Britain is about 900,000, an increase in 10 yoars of nearly 200,000, The German census of last December places the number of females about 600,000 above that of the males in the lom of Prussia, or ncarly three times the twenty years ago. The 1,000,000 more femalos males in the whole G In Sweden and Norway the “'weaker se o in the m jority by 250,000, in Austrin-Hungary by 600,000, in Denmark by 60,000, and in overy European country they outnumber the males. In the United States, Can- ada and Australin the males are in the mujority, though not largely so, the es- timated excoss of males in this country being only 1,100,000 or 1,200,000, It is plain that but for immigration, which furnishes a much greater number of men than women, the latter would soon be in the mujority here. There is a large preponderance of females in New England and in some other sections of the United States, and if immig to lly de- crease undoubtedly the surplus of males would soon disappear in the whole coun- try, In king o e than rman empire, now ation were materi less civilized countries, where women are lightl smed, it is other- wise, India having about million more men than women, while the males largely in China. obvious deduction is that the highor ciy- est six preponderate ilization 1s most favorable to the increase | of the female sex, and this suggests the interesting question whether eivilization is doing the best thing for the world in producing this result.

Hon. John €. Watson finds upon fur- ther inquiry and conference with leading lawyers in the state the opinion very prevailing that cannot logally be elected in Novembor of this ye Judgo Samuel M. Chap- man very cleavly suggests in a letter to Mr. Watson that the safer courso is to aoandon the idea of including tho office of governor in the call for the state con- vention, and others agree upon the gen- eral proposition, 1t may bo announced that the project is dead. This is vight. The republican party eannot afford to give assent toa prop o- sition which is clearly without war of law It will not permit itsell to drawn into the error of holding a fruit- election and involving the stato in further legal entanglements over tho office of chief exceutive. Itis perhaps unfortunate in view of the compli tions developed since last election that there is conatitutional method for correcting an error which makes it pos- sible for n man who was not acandidate before the people at the election to be legally entitled to the office, Neverthe- less this is the situation in which our organic law places the state, and it is clearly the intent of the constitution that no vacancy shall occur in the office of governor throngh any technical over- ght on the part of the people.

Should they be so foolish, their candidate will have the empty distinc- tion of the nomination only. The repub- licans cannot afford to ignore the ac- cepted interpretation of the law merely to checkmate the opposition. It would be an aflirmation on the part of repub- licans that Governor Boyd is an alien and that Governor Thayer is not entitled 10 the off It would be anticipating the decision of the supreme court of the United States, which would be indelicate and ridiculous, The accident will prob- abl, a precedent has already been established which would have the effect of tling a similar controversy without delay. The issue is dead. It need not be dis- cussed further. PROFITS OF STREET RAILWAYS The city of Toronto, Canada, owns and operates its system of street car transportation. Private corporations have been invited to make propositions for the leasing of the lines for a period of thirty years on an agreed tasis of $800 per annum per mile rental, a percentage of the gross receipts and the payment of $1,400,000 for the road in addition to suming a mortgago indobtodness of $600,000. The proposition also involves a chango to an electric systom. The most advantageous of three prop- ositions now heing considered is that Iknown as the Kiely-Everett tender. The Toronto Mail veduces the proposition to figures and makes up a table computed upon a trackage of 80 miles for the first 21 years and 100 miles for the last nine years. The company is to invest $2,000,- 000 the first three years, $3,000,000 dur- ing the next 18 years and 10,000 during the last nine years, or $8,500,000 during the term of the lense, It Al culated that 75 per cent of the receipts will be used as operating expenses dur- ing the first two years, 70 per cent dur: ing the third, 65 por cent during the fourth and 55 per cent during the re- maining vears, According to the caleulations of Mail the estimated receipts will be 000 per annum the first throe years and will steadily increase until they reach 2,750,000 the thirtieth year, the total receipts for the thirty years amounting to the enormous aggregate of $40,500.- 000. The city will receive as rental and from its percentage upon the ceipts of the company $124,000 annually the first three years and $382,500 the thirtieth year, or $6,734,100 for the entire term. The total surplus of earnings exclusive of oxpenses, cost of management, intere on investment and possiblo loss by con- version of the system of electricity,real- ized by the company under the proposed > 15 $16,071,500. Toronto has an estimated population of 180,000, It would add to the value of the estimate given above to be informed upon what basis the growth of the city is calculated This is not at hand. Nevertheless tho figures reveal in most graphic manner the enormous val- of exclusive feanchises wo street rail- way corporations,, It is probubly safe to assert thut in growing cities of equal population in the United States the franchisesare fully s valuable us in Toronto, Theshewing contains in itself a startling comffntary upon the gener. osity of western gities in voting street car franchises without reserving either the vight of royfifsion, rental or a per- centago of the receipts.
