Omaoha should he in fu!l druss during the month of May, WHY SHOULD RICHARDS BE AVENGED? When Judge Post was triumphantly elected last November in tho face of rwhelming odds in one of the most desperately contested campaigns ever fought in this state the glorious repub- lican victory was eonceded by friend and fou alike to be largely, if not chiefly, due to the exertions made by THE BE | But Richards and his fanatical ghost dancers were not content. In fuct most of them would have preferred to s Bdgorton elected so a8 to be able to pro- claim that Tne Bee had no influence and that Dr. Mercer, at the head of the state central committee, was a wretched imbecile, Instead of sinking their griovances and porsonal animosities for the good of the party in the impending campaign, which is to be no walkaws these political Pharisees have for four months kept up a frenzied wal about Richards and ranted themselves hoarse about a commonplace politician who fell with scores of others in the political cyclone that swopt the state in 1890, Instead of directing their fire at the common enomy they have kept up a concerted fulisade upon THE Ber and hurled ciubs, brickbats and stones at its editor. The battle cry of the ghost dancers is that Richards must be avenged. What ishe to be avenged for? Is hoto be avenged for défeating the party and himself by forcing the prohibition ques- tion upon the state at a most criticai time? Is ho to be avenged for his culpa- ble neglect to take possession of the field early in the summer right after ho was nominated and before the discon- tented republican farmers had gone over bodily into the allianco camp? Why did he go on that junkoting tour to Boston and defer the opening of the campaign from July to September? Is Richards o be avenged forlosing popu- lar support by his cowardly straddle of a vital issue when it was within his power to save the party from disaster and himself from defeat by a simple dec- laration that if prohibition d ho would enforce the constitution and laws and if it was defeated by the people he would not sanction a prohibito atute in defiance of the popular decrec? Is Richards to bo avenged because he recklessly disregarded the advice of sincere friends to make a personal can- vass in Omaha and at least satisfy personal assurance voters who afraid to trust him on the prohibition question? Douglas county gave Rich- ards over 6,400 votes, the wonder is that ho received half that nnmber under the circumstances, But Richards is to be avenged because he is a great leader and done great things for the republican party. When was ho a leader and where? Richards has never served in a legis- lative body and has never held a state ollice. e has never been tried in any capacity except that of chairman of the state central committee, True, the re- publicans carried the state by 25,000 majority when he was chairman, but what does thot signify? The state would have given Harrison 25,000 major- ity even if there had been no state cen- tral committee. It did not require a wonderful genius to act as chairman of that committee when there was perfect harmony in the ranks and the 50,000 rapubiican farmers were all ready to tall in line on clection d What then has Richards ever done for the party? Without personal mag- netism, lacking the essentlal gift of fluent speech and without expevience in public hife, what could he do that thou- sunds of ordinary men have not done and could not do? What did Richards do for the party last fail? What did he do to savs Judge Post? But Richards must be avenged at all hazards even though by so doing not a vote is to ba gained in the impending campaign and the party is to be torn up to gratify a set of politieal body snatchers who are trying to resurrect him for no other purpose than to foment discord and contention on the eve of a momentous struggle that will tax the entire strength of the party to its ut- most. If Kichards isto beavenged why not avenge Dorsey, at whose slaughter Richards sceretly connived, and Tom Benton, whose success he bitterly lamented? Why not avengo Harlan, who fell on the same d and Connell, who fell on the sume battle field? Why do not the republicans of Towa indulge in ghost dunces over their defeated gov- ernor and state ofticers? Is this the time for republicans of Nebraska to force dead issues and dead politicians to the front and relegate live, earnest and active republicans to the rear? THE SILVER STATES, In a speech in the United States son- ate last week, Senator Teller of Colo- rado threatened that if the republican party stands for the gold standard the four silver-producing states will not hereafter bo able to net in co-operation with the eastern republicans in the sen- ate or any other body. Although the senator disclaimed any authority to speak even for the people of Colorado, he ventured to imply that unless the re- publican party through its representa- tives at Minneapolis shall respect the demands of the silver producers and those intevested with them the people of the silver states would repudiate the party. Senator Sanders of Montaua did not agree with the Colorado senator, He suid that Montana, next toColorado, is the largest producer of silver and her people are deeply interested in the sil- ver question, but he was certain that Montana will not change her political identification in any spirit of petulance or for any purposes of revenge. *When- ever the time shall arrive,” said Sena- tor Sunders, *when the people of the silver-producing states, dissatisfied with existing conditions, shall proceed to in- quire how they can best subserve their public interests by political action, they will determine their identity and identi- fication soberly and with the modesty of tearful duty.” 1In a private conversa- tion Senator Dubois of Idaho is veported to have characterized the implied thrent of Mr, Taller as simply ridiculous, For months the two Colorado senators have been manifesting, at every op- portunivy, their intemperate zeal in be- half of silver. They have denounced sident Harrison because of his stand inst the free and unliwited coinage THE OMAHA DAILY of silver, and to the extent of their ability and influence they have endea vored to create division snd discord in the republican party on this question. They have not succeeded in doing any injury to the president or in impairing the harmony of the party, and in tho bitternoss of chagrin one of them, who has been honored by the republican party certainly to the full meas vre of his deserts, now calmly and deliberately threatens the loss of the votes of the silver es to the republican party if it shall refuse to adopt the policy which the silver producers demand. Tho war- rantablo inference is that Mr. Teller is prepared to desert the republican party if his warning is not heeded, and as it assuredly will not be it is perhaps safe to expect that the senior senator from the Centennial state will be outside the ropublican breastworks aftor June7. Whether he is or is not will not be of very great importance. Colorado will give her electoral vote to the candidato of the Minneapolis convention, and thero is reason to expect that every other silver state will do the eame. verybody understands that the people of those states are deoply interested in the silver question, but it is not to be believed, even upon the testimony of Mr. Teller, that they are so blindly and inordinately selfish as to regard the question of free silver coinage as being to all other considerations affecting the prosperity and welfare of the nation, and to be willing to sacrifice to this one policy the republican party and all that it stands for. Lven with- out the ussurance of the senators from Montana and Idaho there would be no doubt that Senator Teller hus misrepre- sented the republican masses of the silver states. COURTESIES AND COURTESIES, A local manufacturing establishment with a large wholesale trade pays thou- sands of dollars to the railways for froight shipped all over the west. The rgo to the Pa : coast on the line of goods shipped by this firm is $500 per Lo sions asked the Union Pacific Railw compuny for passes for representativ They have been refused, however, under tho pretext that the company could not afford to lay itself linble for violation of st 1. This firm has on divers occa- ay tho interstate commerce act. Other large shippers have had the same expe- rience. The courtesy of a trip pass fora bunting excursion is not granted, al- though it may be requested by an estab- lishment shipping whole train loads of merehandise. An uttorn at law, the salaried licitor of several franchised monopol is selected by a county convention favorite candidate for the honor of rep- vesenting a political party as a de to u national convention. The attorney has never shipped a pound of freight over the Union Pacilic railw: 1t is possible that he has never bought a rail- road ticket from that corporation. His duties at the national convention are of a character which can in no wise affect the interests of a railway corporation, Yet the managers of the Union Pacific volunteer to furnish a palace car for 63 delegates from Omaha to Kearney and return. The delegates themselves do not find it necessary to apply for passes. The good natured corporation managers appear anxious to present these dele- gates and their friends with passes to Kearnoy and return. They have even gone to the trouble of mailing the passes to the delegates and the attorney has politely informed them on what train they will be honored and the time of its departure. These two pictures carry their own moral. The business man who contrib- utos cash to the treasury of the railway company isnot accorded the slight cour- tesy. The politician is given free trans- portation over 400 miles of road and the corporation sceks to impress upon the politician the fact that it is more than pleased at the opportunity to ren- der him this distinguished service. Further comment is unnecessary, He that runs may read. The Union Pacific railway is not out of politics, and it never will be so long as it can hold up the merchant and the farmer by distrib- uting pasteboard bribez to members of conventions and tamper with state boards of transportation and members of the legislature. 50~ NEITHER CLEVELAND NOR HILL, Mr. Henry Watterson, whoso views regarding democratic politics are always entitled to respectful consideration, ad- heres to the opinion he expressed some time ago that neither Cleveland nor Hill ought to be nominated at Chicago. His judgment is that New York cannot be carried by either of thom, und as that state is absolutely necessary to demo- cratic succeas the candidate must be a man who can unite the party there. The preference of Mr. Watterson is Senator Carlisle, who ho justly is pre-omi- nently and originally identified with the issue of tariff reform, Mr. Cieve- lund and the younger generation of re- formers having followed his lead from tho beginning, but he would be satisfied with any one of the several men who are talked of as possible candidates. As to Mr. Cleveland, the Kentucky editor rejects the idea that he is the only dem- ocrat in America worthy to be followed. “To say that he is,”’ remarks Mr., Wat— torson, “‘is to confess a kind of vassal- age, to abandon freedom of thought and choice, and in short to puta dog collar on a great party,” The democrats of Kentucky have not yet expressed themselves regarding a presidential candidate, buv if Mr, Watterson voices the general sentiment of the party in that state it is safe to say that the delegation will at least not be instructed for either of the New York candidates, But it will probably be found that a majority of the democrats of Kentucky are favorable to the ex- president, and that the representatives they send to Chicago will go prepared to cast their vote for Cleveland unless they bocome satistied after there that it would be inexpedieut to nominate him. The indications are that 8o far as Hill is concerned he will not be seriously discussed at Chicago, but that the question will be Cleveland or a candidate outside of New York. There cun be no mistuke as to the drift at pres- ent, and if the New York enemies of Cle: nd hope to defeat him their only chance lies in making & combination on reaching some other candidete than Hill, who must also be of agfjfipr state. It is true that only ton stages, have held demo- cratic conventions, "and that of these only three have ffstucted their dele- gates to the natiapal ponvention to vote for particular canfiidates—New York for Hill and Rhode Tslfnd and Kansas for Cloveland—but in.the seven others pre- ference for the ex-president wos dis- tinetly and stronffly ‘manifested. That the democratic conventions of a major- ity of the thirty-four ‘states yet to be heard from wiil he favorable to Mr. Cleveland, though fhey may not instruct for him, is highly probabie, and it is now generally conceded that he will have a majority of'the delogates to the national convention, if not the two- thirds necessary to nominate. New York, of course, holds the key to the situation. If the enomies of Cleve- land in that state can convince the dele- gates from other states that Lo cannot carry New York he will be dropped, but not for Hill, who, whatever may be said of his availability in his own state, has none elsewhere. Then will arise the serious question of finding a candidate who can unite the party—one who can harmonize the warring factions and in- fuse some interest and enthusiasm into the party—and it hardly need be said that this will be a source of almost im- measurable perploxity. ——— THE most extensive tin plate plant in the country will go into operation next week at Fllwood, Ind. The owners, who are represonted to have abundant eapi- tal, expect to turn out 2,500 boxes of tin plate per weel, and eventually tho es- tablishment will give employment to 500 tin plate makers. The ovening of the factory is to be mado the occasion of a public demonstration, in which Gov- ernor McKiuley and others will partici- pate. Itisinteresting to note in this connection that a dispatch from Swan- soa, Wales, states that owing to the de- pression in the British tin plato trade the proprietors of a number of the larg- est factories in Wales intend to erect works in America, Undoubtedly as soon as the Welch manufacturers be- come satisfied that the tariff on tin plate will remaia many of them will erect plants in this country or invest in thoso alieady erected, and there is rea- son to believe that a large part of this business in Wales will be transferred to this country in the next five years if the tariff is not disturbed. In that event it is absolutely cortain that we would have cheaper tin plate than ever before. The outlook is now favorable for growth of this industry, and republican suceess next November will undoubtedly ve it a very groat impetus, The New England’stat somewhat to boasting of their blue Amorican blood. ‘Tt 'fs & badge of infe- riority in somo of those states not to ho able to trnce a pedigres to the carliest colonial days. Noevertheless of a total population of 4,700,743, the census shows 1,142,539 to be of foreign birth.

Furthermore, the foreign born population - has incronsed greater ratio during the last decado than the native born. 1In 1880 the whole number of the former in New England was 793,612, The increase in ten yes has been or 43.94 per cent, while the native born increase in the same states for tho same period has been 341,450, or 10.62 per cent. Since 1830 the native born popuiation has increased 46.93 per cent, but the foreign born during the same period increased 273.01 per cent. aro given an s Tug Union Pacific railway company is out of politics. Of course. Nevertheless, the Union Pacific railway company manifests interest enough in the state convention to see to it that the Douglas county delegation does not count the ties between Omaha and Kearney. It is the duty of the mayor to enforce the ordinance requiring wooden motor poles to be replaced by iron posts. JIf we must have the trolley motor let us at least have a uniform and decent looking line of posts on our business thorough- fares.
