His repeated claim that the killing of the old people wus theact of other had many beliovers, and such felt more or loss pathy for the unfortunate man, fact that be was convicted entirely on circumstantial evidence also brought him sympathy from those people who think that & human life ought not to be putin jeopardy upon that sort of evi- dence.

Let us hope the awful punishment inflicted will be re- ibered by the viclously disposed and will restrain them from acts of violence nst their fellow mo: GETTING TOGETHER. It was tne late Samuel J. Randall who advised the democratic party to “‘get sther.” An illustration of the idea was furnished when ex-President Cleve- land and Governor Hill addressed a democratic meeting from the same plat- form. The appearance in such relation of these two distinguished exponents of the doctrines of democracy is by no means, lLowever, to bo regarded as conclusive evidenco that they have got together in the sense conveyed in the admonition of Mr. Ran- dall. There is no reason to suppose that the sentiment of these democratic lead- ers toward each other is any more friendly now than it was before the meeting at which they were both pres- ent, and all the world knows, through the conflicts of their support what that sentiment has long been. It doe not follow from their being together on the same platform counsellors of democratic n that either will be any less zealous in his efforts heveafter to defeat the pros idential aspirations of the other. That the together this occasion simply demonstrates that both realize the desperate character of the battle in which the democracy of the Empir state is now engaged, and the necessity of bringing every force and influence to bear in order to save the democratic ticket from overwhelming defeat. A few days ago, speaking to a New York democratic club, Mr. Cleveland said that united and persistent work was neces: to win. His language v not the speech of confidence. His ad- dress at Thurs ¢’s vatification meeting was hardly more encouraging to his part If Mr. Clovelund were the first of optimists in politics he could not fail to be disturbed by the outlook for the democracy in New York. A largo part of the independent vote, which for ears has been reli- ably democratic, will this year be cast ainst that party. Even more serious, perhaps, than this is the revolt ef Ger- man demoerats against the methods ot Tammany. A few days ago Mv. Her- man Oelrichs, long prominent as aleader of the German democrats, resigned us member of the democratic na- tional committee wholly as a pro- test against the arrogant domin- ation of Tammany. Mr. Oelrichs will be supported 10 his vevolt by thou- sands of German ats to whomn the cause of Tammany hLas become in- tolerable. The repudiation of the demo- eratic ticket by Lieutenant Governor Jones may be a less sevious fuctor in the situation, but it is not altoge ther unim- portant. There are still other condi- tions making strongly for democratic dofeat in New York, This the situation of affairs made an imperative demaud on Cleveland and David Bennett Hill to allow their hostility to slamber fora fow hours while they should plead for their party, but everybody understands that only u desperate exigency could havo brought them together., As to what they said on this oceasion, if it can be i fairly judged fromthe telograph reports, thero is nothing in it to arouse fresh en- thusiasmin the democracy of the Empive | state or to win votes for the party or deaw back to its support those who } declared their purpose to rebuke the »us political ‘methods of Tam- me - wiped 1s y ¢ came on al domoe is thy irover dung | SOMEWHAL AT SE The democratic leaders are not a unit in their views as to what should boe done by the next house of representa- | issue involved in the tariff bill passed b, | ant el tives rogarding tho tariff and silver. It is plain that a great deal of discussion and caucussing will nocessary in order to agres upon a plan of action, and to whether the tariff or silver shall have precedence.

Members of the house having been chosen upon the in | other questions. the last congress, in the opinion of this leader it is the duty of the democratic | members to act according to the verdict passed by the people in choosing their representatives, As usual with demo- crats when talking of tarifi revision, this gentleman had no suggestion to make as to details, but he was entirely certain that tho first duty of the democratic majority in the house is to bring forward a measure rovising the tariff, and until this has been accomplished the silver question should be kept subordinate. Another leader, also from the south, was equally confident that the silver question should atleast be given a position of equality with the tariff. He did not expect the would be able to enact into they might pass on they should go on and pass bill providing for the free and unlimited coinage of silver and one revising the tariff, and he had no doubt the former would be given precedence. This much appears to be pretty assured, that the next house of sentatives will do little more than act upon these questions and provide the appropriations necessary to run the government, and the probability is that the silver men, who have suffictent strength to as they will insist upon giving sil- ver as much prominence as the tariff. [t is possible that the result of the elec tions in the states where free and unlim- ited silver coinage is an issue may be such as to somewhat 1 the ardor of the advocates in congress of that policy, but the passage by the house of a free coin bill may undoubtedly be re arded as a foregone conclugion. It is by no means certain that such a measure could be got through the senate, though the silver people are figuring upon being able to do that. At any rato tho pos- sible effect ofsuch legislation will be discounted far in advance, so that if a bill should pass congress providing for free coinage it would not be likely to do any serious harm. As to tarifi revision it isnot at all likely that anything the democratic.ways and means committe of the house may do will be cencurred in by the senats, so that the manufactur- ing interests of the country need borrow no trouble on this score. On the whole the promise is that the work of the next congress will not be particularly inter- esting or important. democrats Inw, any either subjec measure + but n well epre doubtiess do please, €00 e INCOURAGE THE BOARD. Each day at 11 o'clock the secretary of the Board of Trade and the grain deal- ors of the city meet in the chamber of commerce to trade in gi Although the movement in gri small and there are no flouring mills, and malt houses or other enterprises for creating a large local demand, the grain men are making very fair headway in bringing Omaha up to a grain market. It now behooves other business to encourage and assist the board by meeting with the grain men at the opening hour, Theve th 1 congregate daily for an interchange of views on the trade outlook, and discuss projects that will stimulate commercial intercourse with Omaha by the people of the section naturally tributary to her. Secrotary Nason has feed and milling men of the city to visit the board and buy grain on samples offered there. The heavy contractors and largor liverymen might likewise find it to their interest to go to the open board to make contracts for grain and hay. In time the commis- sion men in other lines of farm, orchard and grain products can mak this a rendezvous and 30 by a little united effort the open board can become the important conter of trade in Omaha. Lot every business man give this subject attention and haveit understood that the Chamber of Commerce s business head- quarter men requested the likewise TrE morbid curiosity shown by all classes, sexes and conditions of people in connection with the Neal execution suggests whother it is not desivable to lopt the system prevalent in some other states in executing murderers. In Ohio, for example, when o murderer is sen- tenced to death he i3 removed to the penitent at Columbus, and he is there on the appointed day between mid- night and morning. The law specific- ally prescribe who shall witness the execution, the number being few, and of course the public has no opportunity to gratify a morbid curiosity.

The bureau of statistics in the troasury department deals in the figures of tho officials of our ports of entry and else whero who have direct supervision over the foroign and domestio commerce. I heir ro- ports are as accurate as the statements made by banks since the officors are accountabie to the department for customs dutios, ete., upon the figures they return. The annual report of tho chief of the Bureau of Statistics which avpeared today, has been more eagerly anticipated than prob: ably any other report ever issued by thut bureau, sinco it gives tne first official indication of the actual working of the new tariff law and for that reason the report will cut an important figuro in the pending state campaigns. It can be atated positively, however, that it will not be circulated as a democratic campaign docu- ment. It is the best argument that could bo mado in favor of the new tariff law and makes ridiculous almost every assertion that has been made agaiust the tariff now leviel With a design to answer the many questious propounded by men in all political parties, the report covers the eloven months that tho new tariif law hins been in operation. In the first place it shows, for the first time in the | history of the country, that the percentage of exports has reased much faster and more than the imports, and the impc admitted free of duty aggrecate nearly 48 per cent The percentaye of increase of goods admtted freo of duty was 1355, mostly ou sccount of sugar. The last half of tho eleven months shows a greater increase in the growth of than the fivst half, show that the longer tho law it ates and giving the assertions tuat if we passed tho McKinley taviff bill wo woulid ruin our export trade. It has greatly helped it and s with reeiprocity building it up far beyond the fondest hopes.
