Tug World-Heraldheadline says “Tho 0Old Plume isStill Waiving in Minneapo- 1is.” That seems to bo the case, THERE i8 much more than the differ- ence of four years between the adminis- trations of Harrison and Cleveland. Tue question for Omaha to decide is whether on June 16 she will allow a gang of ward strikers to control elec- tions. WE CAN stand floods, grasshoppers and tornadoes, . but Nebraska pleads to be spared another congressional term of misropresentation by Bryan. AN T0WA school tencher reccived a proposal of marriage by telegraph lhst woek. She answered “Yes’ by tho sume method. Towa girls are progres- sive. SAY no more that hero worship has died out in this country. James G. Blaine has been tho idol of a great part of the republican party for sixteen yeurs. TO DATE not a single valid objection ‘has been raised to the Nebraska Central proposition. Tho nttacks upon it are inspired by mossbacks and inimical railroads, ‘Wge SEE a great deal in newspapers about the dynamics of tornadoes. Peo- ple are usuaily not so much interested in theldynamics as in the damantics of tornadoes. MR. LOCKNER was an unwelcome figure in the meeting of tho kickers. The latter had nouse fora man who wanted to reason with them., They were not there for that purpose. MISFORTUNES never come singly. Blaine’s resignation was followed in rapid succession by a tornado in Ne- braska, a flood and fire in Pennsylvania ard a railroad collision in Kentucky. The astute and defiant New York Sun for ono day lust week made no reference to David B, Hill, We take it that Mr, Dana is getting ready to make his quzdrennial flop for your uncle, Ben Butler, Tue Buffalo Courier has made the im- portant discovery that it was the demo- cratic conselence that spoke at Syracuse, Inasmuch as this scems to imply that the democratic party has a conscience it is not entitied to much consideration, THE anti-bona people think they ought to establish o newspuper to nid their efforts. This shows that they aro practical and sensible men. There are several days yet in which to get an in- fluential organ on its feet before the election that will settle the matter. OUR wsthetic contemporary down the streot makes tho following unique an- nouncement: **The Union Pacific struck Michael O'Rourke at 2:30 yesterday aftornoon below the Sarpy line.” Or- dinarily this point of contact would be considered a fatal one, but it issaid that the injured man will recover. THE chairman of the anti-bond meet- ing said that the people should hold on to its power to vote bonds so that it would be prepared to vote them for some truly great enterprise when the Yime came. Arguments and facts seem to be wasted upon men who cannot recognize the city’s great opportunity in the Ne- braska Central entorprise. THE men who managed the anti-bond meeting were not in search of knowl- odjze or just conclusions as to the results promised by the Nebraska Central pro- ject. If thoy hud beon they would huve listened to those who wished to present the othor sido of the case. lntolerance of the views of opponents never wins the approval of fair-minded people. — Jupae HOrEWELL has issued a man- dato to the effect that in the future when an attorney has a r estute ~mo tgage for foreclosure he will not bo apyointed special muster commissioner. poe will his partoer nor any other pel son connected with the firm bo ap- pointed to this position. Future appli- cations wust state that the special was- ter.is not in any way iuterested in the sale, This order will be favorably re- coived by lawyers of the better cluse who believe that mortgagors should not be deprived of their rights. AT MINNEAPOLIS. The political interest and attention of the country centerat Minneapolis, where the tenth national convention of the re- publican party nssembles today. The first ropublican national conve at Philadelphia, June 18, 1 nominated John C. Fremont for presi- dent and William L. Dayton for vice president. At that ‘time the total electoral vote of the country was 206, while in tho electoral college of 1892 there will be 444 votes. During this period the executive department of the government has been in republican con- trol twenty-eight years, leaving out of consideration the defection of Andrew Johnson. 1t has leen a period of most remarka- ble progress. Thirty-one states voted in 1856, while now there ave forty-four. The totul popular vote at tho former period was 4,033,967; this year it will ap- proximate 12,000,000, The population of the country more than doubled in the thirty-six years, while its foreign and domestic commerce, its manufacturing industries and its agricultural develop- ment have been enormously increased, making a record of material progross and prosperity unequalled in the his- tory of any nation, ancient or modern, When the republican party nominated its first presidential candidate the goy- erament was practically bankrupt. ‘Three years later we borrowed money at various rates running tio to 12 per cent, interest to pay the expenses of the con- gross thon in session. Wo sold our bonds at 90 cents on the dollar, bearing 6 per cent interest in coin. We had come, said Senator Sher- man in his recent speech in the senato, to a condition of absolute financial col- lapse. Today the credit of the United States is as high as that of uny other country in the world. For these great and beneficent results, which have placed this republic in the front rank among the nations of the earth, the credit is largely due to the policy and principles of the republican party. That party has maintained the protection of American industries, has been the con- sistent friend of American labor, has kept the currency on a sound and stable basts, has encouraged the development of commerce and agriculture, and has upheld the financial credit of the gov- ornment by carrying out faithfully every obligation. The republican national convention of 1892 will ineet under conditions highly favorable to republican success in the presidential election of the year. Stiil adhering 1o the polizy and principles which bave contributed so largely to tho unparalleled progress and pros- perity of the country, the party wiil go into the contest for tho presidoncy backed and sustained by the record of one of the ablest, cleanest and most patriotic administrations in the history of the government. It wiil have nothing 10 defend or apoiogize for in the work and the achievements of the Harrison administration. It will go to the coun- try with the unquestionable claim that avery department of the public service has been administered judiciously, honestly, and with reference to the best intorests of the whole people. The laws have been faithfully exe- cuted, the commercial interests of the country have been promoted, the dig- nity and rights of the government have been maintained. The nation is stronger in the respect of the world than when the present republican ad- ministration came into power and the security of every domestic interest is better ossured. With such a record, and with the assurance that republican suc- cess next November will mean a con- tinuance of the wise policies which have produced such magnificent results, the rapublican party can enter upon the im- pending campaign with aggressive zeal and high confidence in the achiove- ment of a glorious victory. LHE EXPOSITION. The Nebraska Manufacturers exposi- tion will open next Saturday, and every- thing ought to be in reaainess by that time. This can be done only by very active work from now on, which will probably have to be continued day and night. At this time the preparations are not 5o well advanced as they should be, and the time is short in which to make up for delays. Wo would urge upon manufacturers who have taken space to loso no more time in getting their displiys on the ground and arranged, so that when the day of opening comes everything shall ba in order. It will be unfavorable to the popular success of the exposition if when the opening time arrives it is in- complete and muck work remains to be done to perfect tho exhibit. It is al- ways important for an enterprise of this kind that 1t shall be ready at the adver- tised time. The people expect it and if they are disappointed are apt to become indifferent. To insure success in the mattor of public patronage it should open with all its attractions complete. It is still practicable to attain this with the Manufacturers’ exposition, but vigorous and incessant work will be necessary, The practical men who are interested in the success of this enter- prise understand what this means, and it is rousonably expected that they will it once ceed with the wask with ail the vigor and energy necessary to its no- complishment within the required time. I this be done there need not be adoubt regarding the popular success of the ox- position. WHAT 1S CRIMINAL CARELESSNESS! It is difMicuit to determine what con- stitutes criminal carelessness, but in dealing with such a shocking occurrence as that by which two persons were in- stantly killed and several injured on the Council Bluffs & Omaba motor line an effort should be made to define the point ut which culpability begins, The testi- mony of the passengers goes to show thut the train was running at an unusu- ul'y high rate of spocd as it approached the bridge where tho futal accident oe- curred. This is bovrne out by the fact wbut it was bebind time und that un- other train wus waiting on a side track for it to pass. There were three im~ portant things which the conduetor and motor man certainly knew. They knew that they were running fast, that the bridge was just abuad and that the track was not suited to the requirements of Ligh speed. Whether these facts show ! gers in various ways. THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: criminal carelessnoss or not is a question that ought to be carefully considered. There are not many places in the city wheroe the derailing of car would be likely to cause fatal results, but caroless- ness may endanger the lives of passen- The street rail- road tracks are not suited to spurts of speed such as are froquently witnessed. "The people want rapid transit and it is necessary to maintain a good average speed, but fast running on cortain stretchos of track will always be at- tended by risks which judicious passen- gers do not 1ike to be subjected to, and they will be especially averse to it if they cannot feel assured that the cars are in the hands of careful men. The terrible accident to which we havo referred will not be lightly passed over and forgotten’ by the public. The oitizens of Omaha have a right to ask for a thorough inquiry into the matter, 10 the end that tho responsibility may bo placed whero it belongs and timt further fatalities of like nature may be averted. WHAT IT MEANS FOR OMAHA. The success of the Nebraska Central project means an expenditure of notless than $6,000,000 by that company, a large part of which would be paid to labor liv- ing in Omaha, This money would go to our rotail merchants in evory.branch of trade. Inaddition to this would be the expenditure of a considerable sum in the aggregate by the railroad companies that would enter this city over the Ne- braska Central for necessary facilities. Will any reaonable man question that Omaha needs this outlay and would be very materially benefited by it, to say nothing of the value and advantages of the permanent improvements which it would give the city. As a matter of practical business, can it be wise to re- jecta proposition which contemplates distributing seversl millions dollars among the working people of Omaha, and thereby helping all branches of business in the city? It is true that the community is asked to give a consideration for this, but the consideration is not so large as to be out of propurtion to vhe benefits certain to acrue, nor such as to prove a burden upon the people. From every practical point of view, the Nebraska Central project commends itself as a safe way of relieving Omaha from its dependence upon the arbitrary will of one railroad company, and thereby giv- ing a newand vigorous impulse to the city’s progress and prosperity. Our people have been working for years for the very things which the Nebraska Central proposition will give the city, and it is surprising that when the op- portunity to got what we have so long asked for is at hand there should be raised any opposition, except from those who are interested in the corporation whose monopoly of bridge privileges is threatened. A CURIOUS state of things exists in Sioux City. The property owners are trying in vain to induce the mayor to license the saloons on the ground that they are now only partially closed, but the mayor refuses to do so'and declares that he will enforce the prohibitory law of the state. The significant thing about the situation is the fact that while the mayor says he will go right on en- forcing the law the saloonkeepers go right on selling rum. Whether he labors under the delusion that prohibi- tion prohibits without enforcement, or whether he really thinks that he is en- forcing it, the fact remains that Sioux City does not go thirsty. The property owners apparéntly think that the liquor sellers ought to pay for the privileges which they enjoy. The latter are per- fectly willing and even anxious to do this for the sake of avoiding the annoy- ances which attend the pursuit of sur- reptitious liquor selling. THE anti-option bill passed the house of representatives by a large majority, though hardly two-thirds of the mem- bers voted on the measure. Itis a dis- tinet and decisive victory, however, over the speculators. The fate of the measure in the senate is somewhat un- certain, but it is thought that the proba- bilities are favorable to its passage by that body, in which event there is doubtless no question of the bill becom= ing a law, since the president would un- doubtedly respect the nearly unanimous demand of the agricultural producers of the country for this legislation. The speculators may be expected to make a vigorous effort to defeat the measure in the senate, but their failure in the house, where they brought all the in- fluence to bear they could command, will count against them in tle upper branch of congress. The outlook for this legislation is certainly improved. e THE views which have been expressed by this paper regarding the prevalence of mob law in the south are not in the least modified by the fact that a negro was lynched the other day at Port Jervis, N. Y,, for an assaulv upon a woman, So faras mere provocation is concerned the Port Jervis case was similar to those in the southern states, except that some of the latter are sup- posed to have been founded upon sus- picion or mere accusation, The lynch- ing in Port Jorvis is vigorously con- demned by the more respectable people of the town and there is a fair prospect that somo of those concerned in it will be brought to justice. Publizsentiment in the north does not encourage sum- mury exeoutions by mobs, and therein lies the difference between the north and the south. THE fallicg in of another soction of the corridor in the north wing of the county hospital is a fresh reminder of the insecurity of that building. The contractor engaged in putting in sup- ports to prevent the whole structure from tumbling down says he is pushing the work as rapidly as practicable, but in view of what has just taken place it would seem thut greater care might have been exercised. Evidently a ca- lamity there is still possible unless bot- ter precautions are taken than appear to have been adopted up to this time. —_— Tue Iowa state prison contractors are having trouble with the state and refuse to sign u contract for & short period, wishing longer time.

Woe are informed that certain of the Ne- braska delegates to the Minneapolis conven- tion intend to ignore the positive instruc- tions of the state convention that they use every endeavor to have Edward Rosewater vplaced on the national committes. It true, this is dishonoravle and disloyal to party. When thoy accepted their positions as dele- gates thoir honor was pleaged to carry out the expressed wish of the convention. There could be but one consideration upon their act should they forfeit the honor they pledgod. It a delegate is without honor he invariably shows it when the time comes that he may advance the instructions of his convention. If he Tfall then in his duty in one pacticular he will fail another time in a wore vital one. Such a man is unworthy of the confidence of his party and will receive merited condemnation every time. It isnot a questiou as to their likes or dis- lLikes—whether they are frionds or foes of Rosowater- They have accepted a trust; to betray it is treachery. Moreover, Mr. Rose- water will prove a valuable member of the committee, the peer of at least a majority of that body; ana he would gain prominence there—the people would know ‘‘who is the membor from Nebraska;” a fact whioh ap- pears shrouded in mystery at the presenv time, No, gentlemen of the, delegation, vhe can- vention spoke its will; you are but the in- struments to seo it executed.

Willlam Hall, a Union Pacific brakeman, a married man, had becowe so enamoured of a young lady in this town that his autentions became offensive and he was ordered by a brother of the young lady to cease his visits, This angered him 0 much that ho threatenod the life of the brother and made one unsuccessful at- tempt to waylay him. In the meanume Heary Corey, & respectablo youog man of this city, was paving some attentions to the young Iady and to him Hall transferred his threats of vengeance. He plaged tho hold-up game on Corey, and with two rovolvers pointed at his head do- manded that his attentions to the lady be stopped. Corey was not easily scarod, and on Friday night of last weok took thoe lady tosn entortainment in the country. Hail was waiting for them on the road and started to climb into the bugey, brandishing a revol- ver and saying that he would kill the lady aud thon make way with himself. The toam became frightoned and ran away, leaving Hall fn tho rond. Coroy finally stopped the team, roturned the young lady to her home aud started with the sheriff to capturo Hall, but ho had vanished aud cannot bo found. There are some fears that he will return secrotly and injure the interested partios, ana a sharp lookout is being kept for him.

The War department of the United States has decided to take precautlonary steps to prevent, if possible, further bloodshed in the eattlo rogions of Wyoming. An order has just boen issued from the hoadguartors at Washington directing four- toeu troops of cavalry, now stationed in the department of the Platte, to prooeed at onos to the tuteriorof the stawe of Wysming and tako up summer camp. This movomont has been construed to mean various things. Somo havo surmised that thostato was about 10 bo placed under martial law, whilo others have taken it as an indicatlon than anothor Desporate war betweon the rustiors and the cattle kings was about to broak out. Six woop~ from Fort McKinuoy and two troops from Fort Robiuson have boen ordered to tako up a position on Powder river, while six troops from Iort Niobrara will establish a camp botween old Fort Fotterman and Fort Casper. The facts with regard to the situation are just these: The War dopartment has be- oome convincod that there is still danger of bloodshed in Wyoming, and the approach- ing roundup season may witnessanother out- broak and great bloodshed unless steps are taken to guiet the feeling that now prevails botwoen tho rustlors and the owners of the largo ranchos. ‘C'his movement of troops has in view a doublo object. The government wishes to vrevent blondshod and is de- termined to put a stop to the cattle war, and in addition tothis tho soldiers have to go somewhero to get target practico and to take their annual march. It is boliecved by the military authorities that tho presenco of a largo body-of troops iu the cattlc districts will have a quieting offect, and in case it becomes necessary %o take active stops to quell another cutbreak, the troops wili be close to tho scene of dis- turbarce. The department is convinced thav there are n number of thieves up in that region who are agitating s bitterness and are at the head of the lawlessness thet has terorized portions of thestate. Those thieves will be watched very closely and avout the first break they make thoy will bo taken in by the powerful arm of Uncle Sam. Ono of the officers at the headquarters was asked @lay 11 ho thought tho stato of Wy oming would be placed under the martial law and he roplied that he did not think it would be necessary to adopt that measure. *“I'hore is one thing you may depond upon, however,' ho said, “the government is not goig to put up with lawlessness out there any longer, ‘I'hat business has got to come to au end, and my opinion is that if you watch matters closoly you will sec an emigration from Wy- oming of some of the partios who have been busy stirring up tho trouble.” The troops ordered to Wyoming will start for their camping places today or tomorrow and will push right through to the localities where it has been decided to locate them, Full equipment for an all-summer stay will be taken along. i g0 e Caught His Foot ina Frog.
