He would make a strong head for the republican ticket in that state, ——— Tue Now York Sun says itis an un- written law of the democratic party, which has passed into one of its tradi- tions, that no democratic aspirant is eli- gible for the presidential nomination of the party unless backed and sustained by the delegation from the state whero he tives. In proof of thisit cites numer- ous historical precedents, The purnose is to show that Mr. Hill Las & very good | chance of securing the nomination, New York being a pivotal state, and Mr, Oleveland no chance at all, The sug- gestion of it is thut “favorite sons,” who believe themselves to ba presiden- tial possibilizies must be careful not to go to Chicago without the support of the delegations of their owu states Governor Boies must not lose sight of this important requirewent. DISCREDITING When Mr. Blaine he MR. BLAINE. announced, several weoks ago, that was not a candidate for the presidency, and that his name would not bo presented to the republican national convention at Minnoapolis, the groat majority of republicans regardsd the announcement as docisive. Men having confidence in the candor and political intagrity of Me. Blaina could not @ less than believe that in declining to longor parmit himself toha considered a possible candidate of hi sincere, party he was To doubt or guestion this, to assume that there might bo an occult motivein the declination of M was to be expected of his political op- ponents, but not of men of hisown party. Four years ago Mr. Blaine declined to be a presidential candidate and the party accopied it unquostioningly. Why should there be any less o e now in the sincerity of his declination? There is not among the masses of the party, but a fow self-secking politicians, holding positions of more or fluence to which they have boen mis- takaenly olevated, do not hesitate to dis- credit the sincerity and integrity of Mr. Blaine by porsisting in the demand that be shall be the candidate of his party and implying that there ave conditions under which he would accept the nom- ination. The men who are doing this may not realize the magnituds of the wrong thoy are doing the distinguished leader to whom they profess such loyaity and friendship, or the possible injury to the party from tho unwarrantod reflection thus cast upon one of its foro: most men, In the eagerness of their ambition for personal political advance- ment they may not see that in diseredit- ing the sincerity of Mr. Blaine they are doing what may impair his influence in the coming campaign and what is oven now furnishing capital to the enemies of the vepublican party. But thought- ful republicans, anxious only for the sue- coss of the party in the national contest of this yoar, see in the persistont effort of cortain politicians to make it appear that Mr. Blaino may be forced upon the party—in other words, that he may be induced to stultify himself by accepting a nomination under certain conditions— only danger to the republican cause, Among the professed friends of Mr. Blaine who are thus discrediting him is Mr. J. S. Clarkson, chairman of the re- publican national committee. Through his paper, the lowa State Register, Mr. Clarkson has been steadilv urging the repubiicans of Towa to send a delegation to the Minneapolis convention instructed for Mr. Blaine. That paper of March 1 contnins an article headed *‘Blaino or Harrison—Which?” that concludes follows: ‘*‘Towa is for Blaine and it the power to make him the next presi- dent of the United States. Why not in- struct for him at the state convention and thus remove all doubt as to the re- sult of the campaign in the state and nation?” Now what is the real motive of Mr, Clarkson in this matter? He does not believe that Mr. Blaine will be nominated. He knows as well as any man that Mr. Blaine’s declination to be as considered a candidate was flnal and conclusive. Heo understands perfectly that under the circumstances Mr. Blaine could not honorably nomination, accept a But if Mr. Clarkson can induce the vopunlicans of Towa to instruct their delegation for Mr. Blaine it will be in a condition to be manipulated in the in- terest of any other candidate from whom Mr. Clarkson might havo reason to hope for valuable political consideration for himself. The republicans of Iowa, however, will not fall into the trap that Mr. Clarkson has set. He has no claims upon them, There is no reason why they should look to him for admonition or confide in his counsel. As alender he has always led them astray, and in the exigencies of tho party in recent years he has been no help to it. His past course is in no small degree respon- sible for the decline of the republican party in Towa, and it is entirely just to measure his clnims to present consider- ation by the record he has made. The republicans of lowa should send to the national convention an untrameled deles- gation, free to vote for any candidato whom the majority of the deloeate lieve to be the most available, which cannot be manipulated in the in- terest of any self-seohing politiciun, CONSTIT TONAL AMENDMENTS., The present congress will probubly immortalize itself by voting to submit several amendments to the constitution of the United States for ratification by state legislutures. One of these will un- questionably be an amendment provid- ing for the election of United States sen- ators by direct vote of the people, and another will be a proposition that the president and vice president shall be elected by a dirvect vote of the people for a term of six years, und shall be ineligi- ble to re-election. Another pending amendment introduced on January 18 by Sonator Platt in the upper branch and by Hon. William M. Springer in the house, reads us follows: “*No stato shall pass any law respecting an establishment of velizion, or prohibiting the free oxercise thercof. or use its property or credit, or any money raised by taxation, or authorizs eithar to be used, for the purpose of founding, maintaining or aiding, by uppro priation, payn ent for services, exponses or othorwise, uny church, religious denomina- tion or religious -xociety, or any institution, society or urder aking, which is wholly, or in part, under scctaricn or ecclesiasticul con- rol.” This am>ndment is being urged peciaily by the Nationil League for the Protection «f American Institutions, of which Hon. Joh1J y, formerly minister to Bogland, is president. ‘The national league has been organizing for the adop- tion of this ame \dmen: for a nuwmber of years, but it has not been formally pro- posed in congre s until now. The pros- pects are good for its submission, as the sentiment of the country is entiroly in accord with its terme and there isa wide-spread feeling that its adoption would entirely obliterate sectarianism from Amevican politics. Tae Bee is in favor of the amend- ment, not because it app-ehends any possible danger to the state from theen- croachments of the churches, but for the reason that it places in the suprems law of the land a principle expressed in deli- mte terms which isa part of the un- written but nevertheless potent liw 03 | upon which ke Amorican repub ic s THE OMAHA 1 founded.

The case was brought to oust the company from its corporate rights and franchises ob- tained from the state of Ohio. The de- cision of the court does not disturh the franchises, but it does what is far more important, from the point of view of the public interests, in prohibiting the com- pany from in any way continuing to carry out or fulfill any provisions or agreoments under the trust contracts, This can hardly fail to ba a serious mat- tovfor the company, not only in immedi- ate financial losses, but in opening the doors to unlimited competition. It isan important anti-monopoly victory, how- o, and one that is especially signifi- cant from having been won in the stronghold of this great corporation, Another important anti-trust proceed- ing is the case brought in the United ites court at Boston aganst the Whisky trust, all the members of that combination having been indicted by the federal grand jury, and a number of them have already been placed under arrvest. This action is brought under the Sherman act passed by the Fift first congross, and will probably be re- garded as The consjitution- ality of the law has already been af- firmed by a lower court, but undoubt- edly the whisky trust will, if beaten, carry the case to the United States supreme court for a decision as to the constitutionality of the statute. The whisky combination is not quite so for- midable as the Standard Oil monopoly, but from the legal point of view, if not from that of public policy, it is equally objectionable. The frionds of anti-monopoly will find reassurance in these proceedings, which indicate that public sentiment hostile to trusts and combinations is still an active force. There has been just complaint that during the two years or more in which the anti-trust law passed by con- gress has been in force, no proper or adequate effort has beon made to give it effect, but thers is reason to believe that an earnest endeavor is now o be made to enforce the law in all cases to which it will appl; In that event the present year may witness the dissolution ainst a test caso. of most of the combinations for control- ling production and price: KEEP UP WITH THE PROCLSSION. Omaha is not keeping pace with her reputation for public spirit and enter- prise. Her business organizations are positively indifferent or culpably negli- gent. It is a shame that we should per- mit enterprises dependent solely upon public pirit and indiyvidual liberality to lag for want of support. This city is famous all over the world for its push and energy, and we have advertised far and ~ide that Owmaha is a marvel in pushing every project that tends to pro- mote her material prosperity. What ave the facts? A few men are forced to wake the burden which should bo laid upon a thousand shoulders. Mossbacks sit in their homes or their offices calculating the percentage of income to capital invested and pubiic meetings called for purposes important to every citizen enlist the attention attendance of but a baker’s dozen. Ral roads discriminate against us and the protest ak that the oppressors laugh atit. Railroad builders, manu- facturers and capitalists come and go, and we barely hint to them that Omaha is the geographical center of a most productive country and they should give her resources some consideration, The people of this country believe more in Omuha than do some of her old- est citizens, It it were not 0 we should not now be confronted with the problem of what we are to do with the conven- tions and the international drill.
