THE 10WA ALLIANCE. It was a long and hard fight that the conservative element of the lowa Farm- rs alliance waged against the efforts to teansform it into a political machine, but they have won, and the victory is most creditable to their judgement. Two years ago an unsuccessful attempt was made to carry the alliance into poli- tiesand the nonpartisan element believed then that their victory would be do cisive, but the politicians in the organi- zation were not to surrender so eusily. They renewed the fight and were as- sisted by emissavios from the Southern allinnce, which organization desired to swallow up the Towa alliance and mako it a part of that political machine. For more than a year the contest between the nonpartisan and political elements of the Iowa organization has been waged with great vigorand earnestness, and for o time it seemod that the pol ticians were to win. As usual the wore the noisiest and professedly the most confident, but there was quiet and offective work being done by the intel- ligent and conservative men of the al- liance, who do not believe in sub-treas- ury und fint money schemes, and when the trial of strength camo theso were found to bte 1in the ma- jority. The farmers allinnce of Towa s thus distinetly committed in opposi- tion to the impracticablo demands of the Ocala platform and against having any relavions with the political machine salled the Southern alliance. The Towa organization has again declared to the world that it is not in politics, and in this it hus done well. The defeated element, true to their disorganizing and destructive pur- promptly withdrew from the allinnce and went over to the south- ern body. They will there find con- genial company, and the Jowa alli- ance will be a more peaceful und use- ful body without them. It is cally weaker, but it has gained in in- fluence, In refusing to be the instru- ment of any political party, and in re- pudiating the wild schemes promulgated at Ocala, it has commended itself to the respect and contidence of in- telligent men of®all clusses. It has shown that it is controlled by judicious men who cannot be seduced into the support of any of the foolish vag and reckless expedients that issue from tho braing of demagogues, and such a showing will be of incalculable benefit to the farmers of Iowa. Its tendency will be to restore whatever confi- dence they have lost by reason of partisan misrepresentation, since it wili reassure those who have financial relations with them that they are an honest and conservative people, who do not want to utterly disorganize and de- moralize existing conditions. This ac tion has set & most oxcellent example to the alliances of other statos, and if these organizations are to be maintained the example must be generally followed. CULPABLE NEGLIGENCE. The public business of Douglus county has been conducted in a very haphazard sort of manner, It is a shame to county ofticers and especially to the board of county commissioners and auditor that abusps in thi divection have gone on uncor- recied for years, The indifferent bookkeeping of the oficers malkes it well pose, numeri- ries t the meeting and see to | the | THE OMAHA DAILY | nigh impossible to getat the exact status of any particular fund. It is very | clear that some of our county offi far concerned about re drawing their salaries than about forming tneir duties efficiently The report of the special committee appointed by the Real Estate Owners’ associntion to examine the county cords in connection with the bridge bond sinking fund is a fearful arraignmoent of the county officiais for their culpable negligence, thei indifference to the welfare the tax yors | of Douglas county and their open viola- tion of tha plain letter of the law gov | orning transfors of funds. According to this report “the records in the offices of the county clerk and the county treasurer are and have been kapt in a very loose and imperfoct manner, partly on account of the law regulating these matters and partly because of the incompotency of some of the officials. Besides this, there b refusal upon the part of the officials to keep the cords which the lnw directs. The com- mittee found but little system or method | of keeping the records of the two offices referred to, and would recommend that a radical reform be brought It is certainly the duty of the county | auditor to check lawless appropri and transfers of the various funds. ity comptrollor guards the city from raids by the council and halt when an illegal expenditure is pro- He keeps the accounts of the I funds and informs tho city ofli- cials when the same are exhausted and calls attention to proposed violations of the law in making transf Wh should the county auditor not do like- wise? The county clerk keops no record of any one fund which will enable him to show a completo history of such fund. The county treasurer depends upon the warrant stubs and canceled warrants, but has no book to which he ean refer at once for the condition of any fund. The county auditor is little move thana clerk for the board. The records have not heen cavefully preservod and us a consequence the expenditure of $12,182.96 in connection with the bridge cannot be accounted for. The county auditor says no explanation can given which will throw light upon this fund. Furthermore there is no v rant either of iaw or senso for diverting a sinking fund created porposoly to puy a bonded indebtedness to any other pur- po: This is & bad showing for our county government and illustrates the necessity of arvadical reform in the methods of dispersing funds, of collecting them and of accounting for receipts and expendi- tures. @A $12,000 discrepancy is bad enough, but it creates a suspicion that further investigation may reveul other deficits of larger sums, which is worse. ors are more por ver ns been about.™ tions The funds colis | seve bonds be - A FINAL APPEAL, The republicans of Omaha have nev been in better condition to ecarry this city than they are in the present enm- paign. Never in the history of Omaha has there ‘'een such intense foeling among all classes of citizens against municipal boodlers and general misrule. Never has there becn su a universal demand for a sweeping change in the council and in the city and county offices. If this demand was nomination of a e mayor who possesses the reqaisito standing among business men and does not want the office for the sake of pro- moting his private interests, he would be sure of election by an overwhelming majority. Tho same is true as regards candidates for the city council and other city offices. Unfortunately the party is confronted with the ambition of oue man who in- sists that he must bo nominated for mayor because he wants the office. This man has notoriously sought to forestall all preference for other and more available candidates by exacting pledges long in advance of the cam- paign from them that they would not enter the lists and leave tho field clear. When he was vequested at a conforenco of republicans and in the interest of the party to releaso these gentlemen and give the party u chance to choose a man whoin the opinjon of its convention can command the largest number of votes, ho absolutely refused to do so. This action alone should stamp him as unfit to be placed at the head of the city ticket. He says in so many words, **1 have man- aged to work up a corner on the repub- lican convention and I will force my own nomination because all the other candi- dates ave bavred out by their pledges to me!” This is precisely the position which Mr. A. L. Strang oceupies on the eve of the city convention, Tho question is, shall the party be sacrificed to his selfish ambition? Tue Bee has already stated in plainand terse English why Mr. Strang cannot and will not receive the support of taxpiyers and business men who want better government than we now have or he would be able to give them in view of the which ho is engaged and his depende upon the patronage of corporations that have with the eity. He knows that these eircum- stances Titk BE support his candidacy if nomicated, but will be com- pelled for the general welfare of Oma 10 oppose him from now until election. He ought to know enough to know that it would be suicidal for republicans to jeopardize their entire ticket just to give him the satisfaction of going upon the rocord as a defeated candi- date for wmayor. Would it not be more manly and honorable for him to step aside and let the convention select a man who is not handieapped us he 187 Butwhethor Mr. Strang conseuts to relieve the party from the dilemma in which he has placed it, the delegates to the republi ean convention, who are mostly untram- meled by any pledges, should not sacri- fice party success to gratify Mr, Strang’s that of any other man, If this appeal goes unheedod the blame for disaster mot by the ndidate for husiness in e contracts under cunnot ambition ¢ will rest upon them alone. | = FrRANK E Mookges’ ele | ceded by all parties.

AR R, Alleged Latent Ability. Schyler Herald (dem). As the democrats of Nebraska, by the ac- tion of their state central committee, have no candidate in the field for supreme judge, this delegates to our party the balance of power that shall decide which of the two candidates shall bo elected to an office which brings with it in course of timo tho highest judicial honors of the state., We believe it will be to the interest of ail democrats to act with dis- cretion in the matter of selecting a candidate from eithier of the opposition parties, as the; must do if they wish to vote for u supremo judge at aill. On the one hand we have Judge A. M. Post, the republican nominee, who has creditably filled the judicial bench of this district for nine years, and whose ability and intogrity as a jurist have never been quostioned, and whose loug ex- pericnce on the bench should be of great ad- vantage to him as a judge of the supreme court. On the other hand we have Joseph Edgerton, the allisace candidate, who' has had eleven years' exporience as a lawyer and who has not as yet distinguished himself to be move thau an average lawyer, although he is sald to possess a considerable amount of latent ability which only needs au oppor- tunity for its development. As neither of these parties claim to have anything in com- mon politically with the democratic pavty we deem it the duty of all democrats to car fully consider the personal qualifications of the candidates ana cast their vote accord- ingly. is to give [SRPVIEN true; new POINTS ON STATE POLITI Grant County Tribune: The democraf can't find nor think of anything to say against Judge Post, tuo republican nomines for supremo judge.

The prosent tory government of Engiand may justly claim that it has passod not a fow measures hitherto associated with liveralism, anda that it is prepared to pass many others since home rule is the only proposal (except, of course, proposals looking to church dis establishmout) against which tho govern- ment is decieively pledged, and it is the only proposal which draws a dividing lino that the electors can understand, The liberal leaders are, moreover, far too deeply pledgod to their programmo of 1836 to rocede from it now. No ono suspects Mr. Giadstone of any wish to doso, He said in 1556 that he had given the rest of his life to tho solution of this one problem, and ho has consistently refrained from grappling with any other. He is sometimes for caring too little about new questions. Everyone knows that his whole enthusiasm is still given to this one enterpriss, and that ho would account it no less a defeat to drop it before election than to bo beaten upon it. Among the other men prominent in the lib eral party there are understood to be some less interested in the home rule schemes than he is, and loss sanguine of successfully work- ing them out. But the wish, should any such wish exist, to throw Ireland asido, would be at onzo checked by two conside tions. Tho first is that the nationalist party I probably hold in the next houso of com mons the balance of power. According to present calculations Mr. Gladstone will have a majority over the tories and liberal union ists of from forty to cighty. As tho Irish uationalists (reckoning in both Mr. Parneil's little band and the larger section) will reach eighty, and as they would of coutso oppose any English ministry which did not offer home rule, a liberal ministry could not take or retain office excent upon thoso terms. ‘The other consideration is not less material. Although, as has been said, the rank and file of tho English tiberal party aro not deeoly interested in Ireland, thero aro many among the local leaders as well as some act men in the house of com mons who care heartily for Mr. Gladstone's programme of 1886, and would refuse to fol- low any liberal minister who should recedo from, or seem to bo trifling with, the policy runment for Ireland. Thesc are v whom the alliance between tho nationalists and Enplish liberalism will be maintained. ‘heir energy and their convic tion ke them an important forco. It is, tuerefore, safe to conclude that although thero obvious contrast between tho warmth and profusion of the spooches made about home rule in 7, and the refe ences to the same subject now, the topic will spring into life when the dissolution,of par- linment takes place, and will bo the main issue which the voice of the clectorate will demand. is an The czar is the only potentate left in Eu- rope who can plunge his country into war of tis ows motion and when no other person in his dominions concurs with him as to the ne- cessity of war. Next to him in this respect, but with a long interval, comes the emperor | of Germany. insome respects Germany is the most advanced couutry ot Europe: in every respect Russia is tho most backward Nevertheless in this respect of delegating tho power of declaring war toa person chosen, not for merit, but by inheritonce, the two countries aro very much alike. I the kaiser were really bent upon having a war, is is hard to see what conservative force there 1s 1 the coustitution of Germany that would out him from having his way. Neverthe- s, public opiuion in Germany, though not organized to tho oxtent to which it is organized in countries politicalls ern, has a very great weight, would be a very strong and almost coor moral opposition to any headlong act of the emperor. In Russia there is no public ovin- ion at all. The nearest thing to it is the opinion of the military class. and that is not likely to oppose the opinion of the czar when his wish is for war. A formal treaty of alliance with Russia, therefore, such as France has now under consideration, would boa very unfavorablo sign for the peaco of Jurope, sinco it would more or bind France to back up the deeisions of a man of hot temper and of weak judzment, who, so far as W1s own country is concerned, is wholly wrespousible. In the interest of Europe it is 10 bn hoped that the ‘understanding” reached at Cronstadt may not be converted 1nto such au alliance. less Tho life of tho emperor of Austria is the most important in Europe. The emporor is the bond of union of the most remarkable agelomeration of nations 1 the world. His con is dead, and the imperial succossion is not likely to be accoptable. The death of Francis Joseoh would almost certaialy cause an explosion of the questions that cluster in the Balkins, and affact tho poace of Kurope. Whether tho empiro might not be dismem- bered would bo a question of the utmost gravity, Sinco tho primacy of Austria in ermany is atan end, the Austrian-Germans have | lost the senso of domiuion, and there is @ feeling that it would be a good thing for them to be united with the Gorman cmpire as Bavaria 1s. The Bohemisus, Hungariuns and eastern tribes might become as inde- pendent as thoy pleased. The ezar would bo succeeded by his son, and the Russian em, pive stoadily move ou its appointed ways. ho kaiser would bo succooded vy u regen and the ewpire at onco be at peace, undis turbed by any ircegular individual enorgy. “Tho king of Italy has a fine son ready for tho throne.
