BookwALTER is making more reputation out of his scheme for a village of farmers than he ever achieved in politics. THE board of trade and other organ- izations of the state are pushing the harvest excursion enterprise with com- mendable zeal, CHICAGO'S reputation as & summer re- gort is seriously impaired by the state- mont that apples were literally baked on tho trees last Sunday in an orchard on Ninety-first avenue. NERRASKA CITY enjoys the marked distinction of being the only city in the state which will have an exposition this year. An exposition at Nepraska City cannot be anything but a success. THE fine Italian hand of the Ameri- can book trust is perceptible in tho se- leetion of text books under the free text book law, throughout the state. The bonk trust is not only active but shrewd. THE independent party is entitled to the credit of infusing new blood into the volities of the state. Old timers look in vain for familiar names in the lists of county delegutes to the Hastings con- vention. —— “ANYBODY can be mentioned for the presidency,” romavked Chief Justice Fuller to a Chicago reporter: and it must be admitted that the chief justice is a living proof of the truth of the statement.

Thelr constituents are, however, a little more determined. Hence .when a boodiing scheme was about to be carvied 1,000 taxpayers marched into the council chumber to entor thelr protest. The council was alarmed ut the demonstration and every single member took his consclence at its word and hustily departed to escape the influence of a public sentiment with lusty lungs and determined heads and bands. An uprising of the people is sometimes necessary to the protection of the interests of the public aud people heresbouts would do well ponder well over the ovent at City and govern sowe of their future plicial acts accordingly. some to Kansas L BUSINESS ON A CASH BAS Those people who get together and the platform udopted by the convention which met at Cineinnati wo start the movement known by thd name of the peopie’s party, have probab given very little intelligent conside tion to what that platform with regard to money. The convention demanded that legal tender tronsury notes be issued in sufficient to transact the busi- ness of the countr on o cash basis, such notes to legal tender in payment of all debts, public and private, and when demanded endorse proposes Cincinnati volume bo by the people these notes shall be loaned to them at not move than 2 pex cent per annum upon non-perishable products, as indicated in the sub-treas ury plan, and also upon real estate with proper limitation upon the quantity of land nand amount of money. How many farmers who have given their 1 to this have taken the trouble to ana- lyze it in order to see what it really means and what it would lond to? In the first place, treasury notes being only promises to pay, for it is presumed the advoeates of th monetary policy do not intend that they shall edeemable, their proposed would simply be a substitu- tion of government for individual eredit, and it is not elear how this would enable approv proposition now be i issue o the country to do business ona cash basis. We should simply be using the credit of the govcrnment, repre- sented by its paper promiscs to puy cush, instead of individual eredit, represented by checks and drafts, One form of eredit would give place to another, and as individual credit is the root of all credit, how long could ment eredit maintained when thore was no lonror individual credit. But if this consideration is too plex for the averige fiat money and the scheme, perhaps the no ditficulty in understanding what an of currency cqual to the transactions in cash of the entire busi- ness of this country means, How many thousand milliors of dollars would suf- fico for the purpose? It is estimated that the volume of business transuctions last year was not less than ten billion dollars, 92 per cent of which was done with and drafts, that is, in- dividual crodits, which it is proposed to doawny with, When the government flonted about four hundred millions of greenbacks it required $2.50 nominal of them o buy either a gold or sil- ver dollar. What would happen if 25 or even 10 times that amount of treasury notes were issued by the gov- ernment? How long would it be before such a currency beeamo #s worthless as vern- be com- advocate of sub-treasury y will have issuo ehiceks confederate serip was even before the overthrow of the confederacy was as- sured, and what would be the effect on the credit of the government with such a load of paper to carry? And the farmer and laborer would be the great- est losers from such a state of things. They give tho best they have—their labor and the produets of their labor—and they ought to receive for it the best money, but they will not do this if there is money of differing values, for then the best is taken out of the channels of trade and from commerc uses and hoarded by those who can have accum- while it also finds its way to ulations, lands where it The farmer or workingman who be- lieves he would be benefited by more money provided in the way demanded by the Cincinnati platform is deceiving himself. The farmer when he sells his wheat is required to give a full bushel in measure. He should reccive, and the buyer should be required to pay him, a full dollar in value. When the laborer porforms a full day’s work he should re- ceive his pay in dollars as full value. Thero could be no surer way than that proposed in the Cincinnati platform for bringing disaster to both the agri- culturist and the laboree. THE BEST OF ALL I\VESTMENTS. A writerin an enstern journal says that the American farm is a treasure aud always will be. Farm land is more wanted. desirable property today, he declares, than railvond stocks. It isa better in- vestment than town or city propert, “Tho next wave of wealth,” says this writar, “bringing thousands of millions of profit to those who invite it by invest- ment, will be over the farms. The farmer s going to be tho citizen of prospority and conse- quence, and he is going to rule in public affairs.” It would cortainly soem that the time is at hand when the owner of u good farm will be the most enviabla of men, and if ho knows how to get the highost results out of his possession, will pursue the most profitable of any branch of industey. All signs indicate a prolonged ora of prosperity, possibly to be inacfinitely extended, for the in- Uigent, industrious and thrifty Amer- an farmer. All investigation leads to the conclusion that the day of low and unprofitable prices for the products of agriculture has gono by, Everywhero the growth of population is far more rapid than the increaso of cultivatod lands, and while no limit n bo set to the former it is but a quastion of time In when the lutter will be exhausted. all probability Europe will never produco sufticient grain to supply the wants of its people, and as long as the United States produce will be a market for it there. But this will not be perpetu The time will come, and in the opinion of some it is not remote, when this country will produce no more than her own people can consume, but it would scom certyin t in any event the furiner will hereafter get good prices for all that he grows, uch a prospect should have a con- servative influence upon the agricul- tural class. It should impress upon the farmers of the country the desirability especially of keeping the monetary sys- tom of the country on a sound and stablo basi and of avoid- ing every financial expedient or expori- ment which might havo the effect to de- preeiate the purchasing power of any part of the currency or to impaiv the eredit of the governm The farmers of this country exercisea great influence which their enlarged prosperity will in- crease,, aud it is of the highest import | THE OMAHA DAILY BEEy f ot good principles ance that they exert it in beh government and wise, just that will operate equitably for all clusses, LOOKING TO STATEHOOD.

The aspiring politicians of both parties nre urging the movement. Aécording to the last Arizona had less than sixty thousand population, which is less than Idaho or Wyoming had when admitted, and it is hardly probable that congress will devolve the responsibilities and obligations of state- hood upon a population than third the required to elect a representative in congress under the new apportionment. Lt is very doubtful whether Wyoming and Idaho would have been aamitted had it been known that their populations were no greater than the census gives them, but the chances are still unfavorable to Arizona for the reason that she has not the resources which insures growth in population and matevial development. The growth of the territory in 10 years was only about nineteen thousand, while consus loss ones number more in tho same period the population of Wyoming inereased 10,000 and that of Idaho over fifty thousand.

It is not known whether or not any effort will be made for admit- I undoubtedly ask the Imission to state- ting Utah as a state, but on the score of population the territory hus a good claim, the census giviug her nearly two hundred and eight thousand, and she is having a vigorous development. The probability is that the element of the population which will be most influen- tial at Washington will prefer the post- ponement of statehood until it is strong enough to control a state government. There need bo no hurry about con- verting the remaining territories into states. It will do them no injury to re- main as they ave a few years longer. No settlement of the smelting works controversy is possible so long as the professional agitators are allowed to manipulate the movements of the smelting works employes. There are however responsible men having the rospect of the community in the mem- vership of the Central labor union. These, too, recognize the fallacy of at- tempting to do anything until the solf- constituted leaders are discarded. In the interests of the community at large it is hoped the honest, sincere friends of the laboring men and of Omaha in that organization will assert themselves and intercede for u proper settlement of the differences between the smelting works and the employes. There is rcason to believe that the interests of all parties would be properly conservod if the men cf recog- nizod character in the central organiza- tion were to tender their mediation to both the employers and the striking employes. It is possible that their efTorts in this direction would be rejected for the reason that the smelters’ organization sustains no relation to tho central labor union,although thisshould be one very good reason for accepting the proposed intermediation. One thing is absolutely certain; with Barton and Nash on one side, and self-consti- tuted, unauthorized, indiscrect and in- cendiary leadership on the other, noth- ing can be done. They cannot meot on common ground and can never agree. They are antagonistic in every particu- lar and nothing can bring thom into harmonious relations, The Central labor union might propose to select one man, Mr. Barton to select another and these two a third before whom all parties could appear and submit their proposit ions and go to the striking smolters with a pro- posal for the arbitration of the difliculty, It may not be amiss to recall the fact that although the instigators of the Manipur riots in Tudia are tobe exe- cuted by tho English authorities, Plonty Horses, who deliberately assas- sinated Licutenant Casey last winter on Pine Ridge rescrvation, was discharged beeause the American Indian riots were held to have been legitimate warfare.

Royal Baking Powder, - Strongest, Purest, Most Economical. 33 Certain baking powder makers are publishing falsified extracts from the Government reports, with pretended analyses and certificates, wherein an attempt is made to compare their baking powders with the “Royal,” or making bogus tests from house to house, l!lcirlobviou: purpose being to counteract the recent exposures of the inferiority of their own goods arising from their impurity, low strength, and lack of keeping qualities as shown by the Government chemists and others, As to whether any of these baking powders are equal to the “Royal,” the ofiicial tests clearly deter- mine. © When samples of various baking powders were purchased from the grocers, and analyzed by the United States Government Chemists and the Chemists of State and City Boards of Health, the reports revealed the fact that the “ Royal” contained from 28 per cent. to 6o per cent. more leavening strength than any other cream of tartar baking pow- der and also that it was more perfectly made, of purer ingredients, and altogether wholesome, As these powders are sold to consumers at the same price, by the use of the Royal Baking Powder there is an average saving of over one third, besides the advantage of assured purity and wholesomeness of food, and of bread, biscuit and cake made perfectly light, sweet, and pals atable —advantages not to be had in the use of the low grade, cheaply made baking powders that contain lime, alum, and other impurities, |
