THE RANK AND FILE WANT HIM, The logic of the situation would obvi- ously scem to be the renomination of Mr. Harrison, says the Philadelphia Ledger, o journal of independent tenden- cies, “for the reason that the rank and file of his party are well pleased with his administratio Our Philadelphia coutomporary then proceeds to pointout whevein the administration has com- mended itself to the approbation of the party. Its foreign and domestic pol has flicient, honorable, dignified and public spirited. No great question of national or international concern has vemaned unanswered by it, und tho answer given has been, with rare or no ption, sagacious, just and decisive. *With regurd to the two chief ropubli- 1 issues, financial and economie,” says the Ledyer,**President Harrison’sloyalty is unquestioned and unquestionable, Ho is the uncompromising supporter of an honest currency and of a protective tar- ifl. The people generally have found his administration satisfuctory. and it is ot unnaturally asked why a public sec- vant who, in the highest and most re- sponsible position of all, has proved himself to bo faithful and competent, should bo set aside and his place given 10 another without hisexperience in the lontial oflice, and whose qualifica- tions or disqualifications are unknowa to liis countrymen, stion to be determined at the Minneapolis convention is whether the wiil of the rank and file of the party or the demund of a few selfish politicians is to be regarded. The former has been generally and strongly expre t no reasonable doubt can ex specting it. Havrison is unmistakably the choice of the masses of the ropubli- can voters, who are interested only in a cupablo and an honest administration of the government, without regard to who nay be permitted to distribute the pub- lic patronage. These intelligent voters have not reached their deeision through ny deceptive or misleading influences. I'hey eawe to it us the resull of u care- ful study of the work of the adinistra- tion.

A professional workingman, who parts his numo 1 the middle, demands an agreement from the cers of the company that they will pay reasonablo wuges and give prefer- enve to citizens of Omaha and Douglas county. That sounds very reasonable, but when this man s that the Union Pacific imported 15,000 Chinamen to build their road and #sks “what is to hinder the Nebraska Central from b in ing an army of Chinamen to Omaha and paying them £15 per month?” he arouses the suspicion that he has been retained by the Union Pacific or som poration interested in def petition. The Union Pacific did not import Chi- namen into this country and was not built by Chinamen. That charge can only belaid at tie door of Leland Stanford and his Central Paeific railrond. The Union Pacifie bridge was buily by white labor and it is not likely that the Ne- braska Central would be built by Chi- nese labor. The Union s might have roadil brought Chinamen to Om in 1871 when the bridge was built, because at that time there was no embargo on Chiness immigration, Bat now there is a law against. the importa- tion of Chinese that would effectually hinder the Nebraska Central from im- porting Chinese labor even if it were disposed to do so. of town they k¢ south sid ropre- snteal will help squa Six- W existing roads will have to re- s becanse of the Othier working men are asse othor cor- wing com- 2aci This Chinese bugbear is only one of the many preposterous objections which aro being raised to keep Omaha bottled up and hinder her natural growth at the eritical time when she has reached the turning point thav will assure forever her commercial and industrial suvrem- ucy or leave her forever at the merey of the monopoly that now controls all the avenues of commerce in and out of Omaha, T00 LATE FOR DISCRETION, Ex-Secretary William C. Whitney, who has just roturned from Europe, has disappointed the managers of the anti- Hill convention to be held in Syracuse by declining to preside over its delibara- tions. Moreover, Mr. Whitnoy says that be is in no manner identified with the movement and has no opinions to ex press on the subject. This looks hke a shirking of responsibility, cousidering that the ex-secretary is ono of Mr. Cleveland’s staunchest friends, but it shows him to be wisa in his generation, The political futuve of every man actively concerned in that convention will be extremely cloudy. It is intoresting to note that the full significance of this anti-Hill convention scheme is just beginning to be appre- cinted by the democratic party at large. In the western and southern stutes the movement has generally been regarded as a personal matter betweon Hill and Cleveland that might give the nomina- tion to some western or southern man, and its disturbing effect upon the party orga tion has heen little considered. Porhaps Mr. Whitney pereeives what that effect will be and does not wish to be concerned in any proceeding that seems to menace the intogrity of his party. But in any event it is too late now for the discreet and conservative members of the varty to alter the situa- tion. The Clevelaud men in New York stute declare with much warmth that they will have a delegation of their own at Chicago. Their attitude is reasonable enough, considering the treatment they have re- ceived at the hands of the Hill men and the fact that their candiaate has a very lucge majority of the delogates thus far chosen, but elear headed democrats who are not influenced by a similur resent mont have begun to see danger in the Syracuse convention, Auimosities will be intensified thereby which canunot fail to be felt in the delibaration at Chicago llway employes are | and in the suly will Yo specchos ngd resolutions i at Syracus Gl e mnblod, and 1‘. ence that wi 1 Al rover " has infln wil n wi the \ v payond ho ders of Now Yo@fl 1f both of the Now York candidat bahalf other ma ara put aside in of som it will stijl bo impos- sible to repair the damazo that will have already done N cate the follo been hing will pla- s of Cleveland if, with o fore e €0 larg gates as ho isr certain 1 have, bee the dare not noming face the music in Ny York. ation is full of interest and 18 the attgntion of country. / THE FREE SHIPOING BILL The mensuro known the Pithian s shipping bill, which has favorably reported to the house of rep- resentatives from the committee on som- mercial mavine and fisheries, is which every section of the country, whether directly affected by it or not, should emphatically oppose. The dem- ocratic members of the committea who framed this bill allowing unrestricted admission to American rogistry of all forcign-built vesselg owned in wholo or in pari in the United States, ecither wantonly or unwittingly dis arded the extonsive shipbuilding interests of the great lakes, which takoe rank as ono of the most important industeies in the country., About one-fourth of the total tonnagenow afloat under the American flag is on those lakes and has been built in American ship vards, employing Ameor- ican workmen and using Amevican ma- terfals, O late years, owing to the in- creased demands of the west for a cheap outlet to the seaboard, thos have grown wonderfully in capacity are now turning out v year alargo number of the bhast steam and sailing vessels. Millions of dollars ave invested in this young industry, which is giving work to thousands of mechanics ard laborers and providing market for the products of mines and mills, The passuge of the bill in question will admit all 1l suiling vessels to unvestricted compuoti- tion, bringing disuster to the shipbuild- ing interests of Chicago, Detroit, Mil- Buffalo, Bay City and other lake ports whore this business is now extensiveiy carried on I'he protective system that hasencour- aged the development of shipbuilding on th uited in great henefit to the people by producing alarge and splendid fleet of ships admirably adapted to the requirements of the traflic for which they were built. The free ad- mission of foreign-built ships to partici- pation in u traflic from which they are now wisely excluded would mean some- thing moro than n blow to un important American industry, for it would fill our inland sers with vpssdls unsuited to tho requirements of tha lake trado, vessels of English coosgeugtion, designed for trade upon the high p‘éx\fi and doubtless in many cases shipa that had outlived their usefulness, 7 % It is no wonder that the people of those lake cities, |1hlPfly intorested in the protection of Amegican shipbuilding, ave sending vigofous and indignant pro- tests to Washington ngainst the pussage of such a bill, is shelved \use » him and The situ worthy of the rty studious entivo fr hoen one ave o our Furopean-huilt steamoars waukee, Cleveland, lakes has re: COUNCILMAN TUTTLE'S ACQUITTAL. Councilman Tuttle has been acquitted of the charge of being interested in con- tracts with the city and in furnishing materials to the city while he 8 a member of the council. After the Mo- rearty farce this acquittal was to have been expected. And yet Mr. Tuttle was interested indirectly as well as directly in the silicon which Mr. Coots used in plastering the city hall. He was a stock- holder in the compuny that sold the si con plastor to Mr. Coots and shared in tho profit from this contract. He was an officer of the company und indirectly instrumental in having silicon selected as the material for plastering in place of the adamant plaster that had beon designated as the material to be used and for which a contract had oviginally been made by the city hall contractor. Does any sane man imagine that silicon would have been substituted for ada- mant plaster if Mr. Tattle had not been a member of the council and a member of the building committee? If not, then why was Mr. Coots compelled to use silicon? But Mr. Tuttle did not vote for this change and he tried to evade responsi- bility by declining to sign the report of the committee, which he finally did sign. Does that relieve him from re- sponsibility when the charter plainly says thut no member of the council shall be directly or indirectly interested in any contract with the city or in any material furnished to the city by any contractor? Suppose a councilman ab- stains from voting when a contract is vending before the council in which he has an intervest divecting or indirectly? Would that relieve him from the penalty imposed by the charter? Would he be less guilty of violating the provision that prohibits councilmen from being in- terested in contracts if he actually re- corded his vote against it? If this were really permissibladt would be no trouble to whip the devil areund the stump by making u tie-up soithat councilmen in- terested in one ‘wontract would muke sure of carrying any job through by the councilmen intevesed in another con- tract.
