THE erratic genius of the cryptogram, Mr. Ignatius Donnelly, is trying now to expluin why he thought wheat would be worth 81 per bushol and why he urged farmers to hold their wheat. ATTEMPTS to load down the Nebrask a Central proposition with unreasonable rostrictions should be abandoned. The people want the question of subsidy sub- mitted solely upon its merit ENFORCING observance in Sunday Sioux City upon all classes of business s a means of compelling the city govern- ment to reopen the saloons has not thus far proved an unqualified success. THE Third district elects Loran Clark and Atlee Hart as delegates to the na- tional republican convention and in- structs them for Harrison. In Nebraska, as elsewherc throughout the union, it is a Harrison year. INDIANA gives her delegation to the democratic national convention instruc- tions with a string tied to them. They are to support Cloveland as long as he scems likely to succeed, then to bob up with Governor Gray. THE county commissioners will prob- ably pass upon the Nebraska Central proposition on Monday. They will have had it under consideration for four weels by that time. In all conscience this ought to be suflicient. Tune Wyoming cattlemen who are under an escort of a detachment of United States troops were never hapnier over a successful round-up than when they reached the railroad and knew that danger of the revenge of the rustlers was finally over. THERE must be no avoidable delay in the matter of public work. Alveady the city authorities have wasted time and valuable time. We should now be ready to enter upon extensive paving, sewer building and grading enterprises, but the contracts for the work are not yet awarded. Now a long pull, a strong pull and a pull all vogether for mill- ing-in-transit rates, the abolition of the bridge arbitrary on Towa shipments, the reduction of the Texas differential on stock, and tho Yankton railroud. On these things hangs the immediate commercial prosperity of Omaha. —_— Tue State Board of ansportation should see to it that the warehouse bill is self supporting. A deficiency bill for weighing and other services before tne legislature, would bo an unmixed evil, tor it would probubly bring about the repeal of the law. High priced oflicials with nothing to do are a luxury which the grain business of the state cannot ask the logislature to pay for. — THE Nebraska Union Veteran Repub- lican club of Lincoln, forwarded to Con- gressman McKeighun as a matter of courtesy, n copy of resolutions protest- ing against voting $100,000 for the Grand Army of the Republic encampment at ‘Washington. The distinguished dema- gogue from the Second Nebraska dis- trict uses the communication as an ex- cuse for a letter written in a sneering if not absolutely insulting tone which the ex-soldiers of Nebraska ought to re- member, ONLY twice in the histery of this country has a *third” party movement turned the scale in a presidential elec- tion. In 1844 James G. Birney, as the candidato of the liberals, took away enough votes in New York from Clay, the whig candidate, to give that stato nud the presidency to the democrats. In 1848 Van Buren, at the head of the free sollers, returned the compliment by drawing away enovgh demoerats Lo en- able the whig candidate to pull through safely, Third parties are just as liable to hurt one old party as the other, be- cause ordinavily a third party forms erely a convenient carval for the dis- satisfled of both the groat parties and when it is opened on election day they do not stampede either old party or carcy off any twophies on their own horns, AMERICAN DIPLOMACY. In no reapect has the Harrison admin- istration been more suceessful than in the' management of international rela- tions. The great contrast presented by its record in this particular to that of the proce ily explain the efforts of its opponents to deprecinte the resultsof a diplomacy that has maintained the honor and dig- nity of the nation, and will be always conspicuous in the history of the coun- try for its ability, firmness and patriot- ism, The most noteworthy attack yet made upon this spiendid record of the admin- istration is contained in the Indiana democratic platform, which denounces the diplomacy of President Harrison and Secretary Blaine in the Chilian and Bering sen affairs ns being “a weak and demagogical foreign policy, which has exhibited the American people to the world as a bully toward the waak and a truckler to the powerful.” Nothing short of the most rancorous partisanship could prompt a body of Americah citi- w to vecord such n judgment s this upon a course that was ne to the defense of American rights outraged in tho persons of our sailors wearing the uniform of the republic, and upon a pol- icy which compelled the British gov- ernmant to recognize the fairness of our nosition and conceds the most important of our demands. When the Indiana democerats framed this denunciation of the diplomatic work of the administra- tion they must have forgotten that many members of their party in congress heartily approved the action of the pres ident regarding Chili, and that when war with that country seemed imminent confederate veterans were eager to man- ifest their patriotism by offering their to the government, thus attest- ing their approval of the course of the administration. In the Bering sea mu ter, also, the policy of the president was approved by democrats in both branches of congress and democratic senators voled to ratify the arbitration treaty and the convention renewing the modus vivondi. There are some democruts, therefore, whose public record, be it said to their eredit, is a standing rebuke to the judgment of the bitter partisans of Indiana upon the diplomacy of the administration. The management of our international relations during the past three yours has commanded tho unqualified ap- proval of all intelligent, fair-mindéa and patrioti No other admin- istration since the days of Jefferson and Mudison has encountered so many diffi- cult questions of foreign policy, and it has been justly said that never, not even during those administrations, have the problems presented bren 8o triumph- antly solved as they have been by Harri- son and Blaine. Where others failed they have succceded. The difliculty with Italy has been settled and friendly relations between the two countries fully restored, without the slightest im pairment of the dignity or the tradi- tional pol of this government. In the trouble with Chili the stand taken by the administration was firm, but no government having regard for its vights would under the ecircumstances have been more patient and forbearing, Not to have insisted in piain terms on full redress for the unprovolied outrages of which our sailors, weaving the national uniform, had been the victims, would have subjected us to the merited con- tempt of the world. In the Bering s controversy there has been no surrendor of any claim asserted by the United States, no concession which in the least degree compromises or weakens the posi- tion of this government, and it was the determined stand of the administration that brought about a renewal of the agreement for the protection of the im- portant seal industry until the guestion of property rights is d od by a court of arbitration. The democratic party could make no greater mistake than to assail the for- cign policy of the Harrison administra- tion, which hus conducted every contro- versy with such firmness, wisdom and ity that the honor of the Ameri- name has been upheld and the rights of its citizens protected, while equal care has been taken not to trans- gress the rights of others. can THE GRAIN BUNIN As this newspaper has persistently urged for a yenr past, Omaha can be- come the most important grain distrib- uting center west of Chicago and south of Minneapolis, Situated as we are in the centor of a most fertile grain pro- ducing region, with ample railway facil ties and the necessary capital to conduet operations, nothing but our own indif- ference and railway discriminatiouns can prevent Omaha from taking vhe place she deserves as a grain market. While the general business community has been negligent, fortunately for the city there have been a few earncst members of the Board of Trade and a number of grain men spariog no effort to bring this city into such relations with the grain business as must inevitably result in muking Omaha a great grain contor. In Thursday’s Bie we referred to what hus aiready been ,accomplished and found cause for congratulations and hope. As was stated there, the chief obstruction now to b removéd is that of diseriminations in rates. Since the article was written the an- nouncement has* been wmade that the Missouri Pacific will make a milling-in transit rate upon a basis different from thav desired by our own people. The otion is significant nevertheloss and may give us sncouragement to hope for what is needed in this direction from other transportation lines centering here. The Union Pacific now makes the concession which we demand. The Missouri Pacific meets uz half way. The other lines cannot hold outmuch longer. We can afford to keep up the fight for our rights with a reasonable prospect of early success. When this concession is made ship- pers from tho interior will be able to forward grain to Omaha to pass through elovators here, to be inspected and 1o be weighed and offered for sale heve with- out running the risk of paying two local ratos. The result will be that grain men can operate in Omaha just as well as in Chicago. This involves large ele- vators and a system of warehouse certifi- cates Following these wmost nuturally IN. ling administration will read- | will come mills and malt houses. In | short, when this concession is socured, | we can begin in earnest to build up a grain market which eventually will bear a similar relation to our general commercial interests as is now sustained by the stock yards and packing houses of South Omaha, This result is worth working for. —_— report of the house committee on foreign affairs, recommending a joint commission on the et of Mexico and of the United States for the purpose of arranging a reciprocity agreement be- tween the two countries, is a tribute to that policy from an unexpected source. Itie proposed that the president shall invito the government of Mexico to designate three commissioners, who shall meot a like number representing the United States, to negotiate u trenty whereby greater reciprocity in the com- mercinl relations between Mexico and the United States shall be established. 'he report of the committes says that “if, instend of discriminating duties, un- restricted veciprocity prevailed between this country and Mexico, there can be no doubt that the exercise of a little en- terprise on the part of our manufac- turers and producers of food would soon give them absolute control of Mexican murkets.” 1t is not to be deubted that this view of the committee is correct, and at any rate the desirability of mak ing an effort to enlarge our commercial relations with the neighboring republi and to secure a larger share than we now have of the markets of that coun- try will hardly be seriously disputed. It it nearly twenty years since a reciproc ity treaty was negotiated with Mexico and failed owing to the opposition of a democratic house of represenatives, and the i0ss during that period to American munufacturers and producers hus heen a large amount. The Moxican govern- ment has several times since manifested a disposition to enter into another treaty, and it is altogether probable that if an invitation to do so is extended by this government it will be accepted. THe THE opposition in the senate to the Chineso exclusion bill passed by the house will probably defeat that extreme measure and result in extending the present law ten or fifteen years, Sena- tor Sherman urged that this be dono and opposed the house hill as being against the spirit of American civiliza tion and contrary to all that had been recognized as the rights belonging to overy man of every race and clime. Ho also denounced it as a violation of the treaty with China, and declared that any nation which violated a treaty un- duly and without cause would be re- garded as acting against the civilization of the world. Several democratic sena- tors are not in sympathy with the polic; involved in the bill passed by the house and will udnoubtedly vote to continue the present law, on the ground that the more radical measure clearly violates our treaty obligations, is unnccessary, and woula doubtless have results that the country would come to regret. There are important American interests in China which ought not to bo left en- tively out of consideration, but aside from this it is felt that the United States cannot honorably take the course pr seribed by the extreme measuve of ex- clusion passed by the house of represent- atives. There is politics in this ques- tion, but republicans in both branches of congress have not allowad this fact to biunt their sense of duty. Tt is very probable that the house bill wiil fail in the senate, and that a conference com- mittee of the two houses will settle upon some less drastic measure. A SPECIAL committee of the New York senate has investigated the Read- ing combine, and ina report says it is constrained to declare that the combin- ation is contrary to public policy and in- jurious to public welfare, as it undoubt- edly placos in the hands of a corporate combination the power of regulating or advancing the price on one of the chief necessaries of life to any extent deemod advisable. The consumer of coal, suys the report, whether for domestic or busi- ness purposes, is entirely at the morcy of the corporation, inasmuch as the price to be paid for conl will entirely depend upon the views entertained by the uu- thovities of the combination as to what is or may bo for their best interests. The committec did not recommend any new legislation, expressing the belief that the combination can be reached by existing law in case it should become necessary by reason of any action on the part of the combination inimical to the public interast. Authority was given the committee to sit during the recess of the senate so as to be ready to cause proceedings to be brought against the combination if it should advapce the price of coal or do anything else to the injury of the public, thus providing pro- tection for the poonle, not only of New York, but of the country at large.
