Senator Vest of Missourt made a epeech in the senate on Monday in which he departed from the mensure under consideration long enough to dis- cuss partisan politics a little. He said that he was for tariff reform and that it was not his purpose to bow to the will of democratic convention to be held av Chicago. He held himself responsible only to the democrats of Missourl. The tariff and not the silver question was, in his opinion, the chief issue before the country. “We won upon it in 1890, he said, ‘‘and the ene- mies of the MeKinley act can win upon it in1892." There is an apparent inconsistency in the senator’s remarks on this subject. When ho says that he will not bow to tho will of the national convention of his party he scoms to imply very plainly thac he is in doubt as to what that con- vention will do about the tariff question. 1f he entertaing a doubt of this kind it is not easy to see how he can be 8o positive that the democratic party could win by making thetariff un issue and waging & war upon the McKinley act. He de- clares that he Is responsible only to the democracy of his own state, He is loyal to what hoe believes to be the highest in- terest of the democrats of Missouri—for he does not mention the people who are not democr: But will not other lead- ers of his party feel obliged, upon the same grounds, to stand by what they conceive to be the interests of their re- gpectivo states? Not all demoerats are free traders, und there are somo states in the union where even the democrats most loyal to their party need a groat deal of whipping in to keep them from supporting a protective tariff. If it were not for the fact that protection happens to be distinctively a republican measure it would be favored by a very large number of democrats who now op- pose it upon the general principle that democrats most oppose whatever repub- licans approve, It is not by any means certain that the demoeratic party will be a unit in oppo- sition to the McKinley tariff law. It is true, as s, that the parties are move evenly divided upon this than upon the silver issue, but it will be found as the contest progresses that o very large number of democrats will refuse to be counted in favor of free trade. Comparatively few men are so devoted to their party as to lose sight of their porsonal interests, and it is ab- surd to suppose that a personal interest in the protection of home industries is wholly confined to one political part; That democrats have very generally followed the line of policy laid down by the platforms of theiv party is undenia ble, but it is not to be assumed that they will always doso. Senator Vest even seems to be in doubt as to what the Chi go convention will do in regard to this question, which he thinks is the only one upon which an issue can be made. He says that he is responsible only to the democrats of his own siate. Will nov other leaders of democratic opinion throughout the country be governed in like manner by local considerations? Missouri democrats undoubtedly want free trade, but it is an unfortunate cir- cumstance for the party that influential interests in other states would squarely oppose the adoption of this policy hy the democratic national convention. It will be adopted, witbout doubt, but will it win tke solid support of the party? Of course there are some republicans who for personal reasons do not favor tho present taviff law as a whole, but the divigion in the democratic ranks on this subject will be much more serious than it can possibly be among the republicans. If it is true, as Senator Vest says, that this is tho only issue, it 4is evident that his party is at a disadvantage. AN ATTACK ON RECIPROCITY. The speech of Senator Turpie of In- diana in the United States senate a few days ago, attacking the republican policy of reciprocity, is perhaps to be re- garded as foreshadowing the position that will be taken by the Chicago con- vention regarding that plan for increas- ing the foreign commerce of the coun- try. Of the spcech of the Indiana senator it is suflicient to say that its only significauce or importance is the added evidence it supplied of the oppo- sition of the democratic party to reci- procity. It presented no argument which has any force when arrayed against the practical results of the appli- cation of the new commercial policy, nor has any democrat who has ventured to attack reciprocity been able to present -any valid reason for his opposition. The two democratic leaders most prominent in public attention have ex- pressod themselves regarding reci- procity. In his now almost forgotten speech at Elmira, N. Y., some months ago, in which he attompted to define his position respecting the tariff and the silver questions, Senator David Bennett Hill declared reciprocity to be a *‘sham and a humbug.” Mr. Cleveland, in his address to the democrats of Ihode Island, was not so plain end unequivocal in his eriticism, but what he said left no doubt that the policy does not enjoy his favor, Every democratic convention of the year has had something to say hostile to reciprocity. It is, therefore, entirely safe to predict that the national democratic convention will untagonize this policy and that the party will go into the presidentisl campaign with a platform declaring against it, ‘The republican party 1s fully prepared to welcome such an issue. It has all the argument and all the facts on its side. Its claim that reciprocity has been a notable success can be substantinted by roforence to practical results that are beyond' dispute, and if testimony bo wanted regarding the influeance it has exerted in the interest of American commerce, the governments of Germany, Prance and Austria-Hungary can fur- nish it. Nothing can be more ‘certain than the fact that the adoption of this policy was vory largely instrumental in inducing the governments of Germany and rance to revoke the regulations which for years had kopt our hog pro- ducts out of the markets of those coun- tries, and to make other Important and valuuble concessions respecting the im- portation of American ugricultural pro- ducts, European statesmen have frankly acknowledged the wisdom of the United States in adopting reciprocity, and European governments have done honor to our example by proposing to follow it. The addition to our foreign commerce, directly due to this policy, alrondy amounts to many milliors of dollars, and there is every assurance of o vastly greater increuse in the future. It is a distinctively American policy, aggressive and far-reaching—a policy entirely consistent with the protection of American industries and American labor—and if maintained it will inovit- ably place the United States far in ad- vance of every other nation in commer- cial power, It is hardly questionable that a large majority of the intelligent voters of the country are in favor of reciprocity. It appeals tothe interests of the agricul- tural producers, in whose behalf it was conceived, and it claims the support also of the manufacturers and of those who labor in manufacturing ndustrics. 1In short, every producing interest in the nation that coutributes to the commerce of the world is concerned in the main- tenance and success of this policy. It isinimical only to the system of freo trade, and it is for this reason that it is opposed by the democratic party. THE FOOD FISH SUPPLY. When an Omaha man orders a fresh fish for his Friday dinner he propably does not often ask himself or anybody. else whoro it was caught. He is protty sure that it did not come out of the Mis- souri river, if he stops to think about it, but thet is only a nogative. As o mat- ter of fact the trout or whitefish that graces his tablo and tempte his appe- tite is almost certain to be a product of the groat lakes, and in most cases it will be found to have como here from Chieago. Very few people know that the fisher- ies of the great lakes are the most ex- tensive in the world. 'They extend over a shore line of 8,500 miles. According to statistics from the census bureau the catch in these lakes from 1880 to 1890 was over 1,000,000,000 pounds, which yielded the fishermen move than $25,- 000,000. About 7,000 people are engaged in the business of catching fish in these lakes, and the total investment in fish- ing property 1s not less than b Since 1880 lake trout have increased in these waters G4.62 per cent. The re- turns show a decrease in the whitefish catch of 28,59 per cent. This decrense is shown in all the lakes except Lake Su- perior, where there has been an in- crease. Herring are more plentiful than any other variety of fish, and great numbers of them aro marketed every year. The great decrease of trout and whitefish in some of the lakes has occa- sioned alarm among the fishermen, but this will undoubtedly be remediad by the efforts of the fish commissions, which are taking steps to replenish the wate.s that have been depleted. The whole country that depends upon the great lakes for its fish supply will be in- terested in the work which the commis- sioners are doing. THE ANARCHIST AND TRE MAN. It is interesting to note that the Chi- cago anarchists are appealing through their friends to the 'abor organizations of the country for release from prison. The public has not yet forgotten the shocking crimes of these Haymarket assassins and it scems absurd vhat they should ask for influence in their behalf from the very men most interested in having them punished. Members of labor organizations have already suf- fered enough in consequence of the violent demonstrations and. criminal acts of the anarchists, Unfortunately these mon who defy law and order and make war upon society have allied themselves with organized labor and have set themselves up as champions of the interests and rights of tho toiling masses. It s not strange, therefore, that honest and law-abiding working- men have thus been made the instru- ments of scoundrels who have nothing in common with them and who have only. sought the shelter of their organizations in order to more successfully carry on their crusade against the established order of things. The respectable labor ovganizations of the country now fully understand the purposes of the an- archists and realize that they are enemies to honest labor in so far as they are foes to society. There is good reason to hope that the anarchist has had his brief day in this country. He certainly cannot stand alone, and if the labor organizations ignore him he will soon sink out of sight. He is not a friend of lavor; on the contrary, he 18 an enemy to every interest of the honest laboring man, The anarchistic notion that the work- ingmen must be uplifted by killing the capitalist is pretty thoroughly oxploded in this country. Our labor organiza- tions as a rule are controlled by an in- telligent conception of the relations be- tween tabor and capital, and whenever they cousider themselves aggrieved they will quietly appeal to the public senti- ment and let theanarchists alone. They can lose nothing by such a course. souT) PROGRESS. There have been rare examples of a substantial and permanent prosperity more remarkablo than that of South Omaha. The report just submitted by the special committee of the Board of Trade shows & material growth in the compuratively brief period of eight years which certainly warrants the title of Magic city, There is now claimed for South Omaha a population of 12,000 and a business amounting to $50,000,000 annually. The packing industry, which supplies this business, has been growing steadily from year to your, and it is certain to increase in the yeurs to come if the supply territory which should be tributary to South Omaha is made accessible, The only difficulty to be overcome is that of in- adequate rallroad communication with portions of the contiguous country where ment supplies are to be had, which now g0 to Chicago and other packing points. This is the one great obstacle in the way of South Omaha attalning to second place as o packing center, and thersby doubling ite business, its population and its wealth. Anopportunity is presented to remedy this diffoulty, and the people of South Omaha may safely be counted upon to declare almost unanimously in WORKING- the succoss of which would give that city the railrond facilities it requires. The material pragrss of South Omaha must always cowtribute to the pre perity of Omaha’" The commercial in- terests of the two cities are inseparably connected. They' are, in every prac- ticnl sense, one commynity, and it is un- doubtedly only a question of time when they will be under one municipal government. At any rate the people of Omaha rejoice in the growth and pr perity of the younger community and will deny them no ald necessary to pros mote their future dtivancement. THE republicans’ 6f Olio cannot com- plain that they Lidve not received ade- quate recognition, at the hands of the representatives of the republicans of the rest of the country assem- bled at Minneapolis. With Governor McKinley as permanent chairman of the national convention and ex-Governor Foraker as chairman of the committee on resolutions the Buckeye state has certainly been duly honored. The se- lection of Governor McKinley, which was made without tho least contest, was a marked compliment to that distin- guished republican leader which is un- derstood to be due to.the general recog- nition of his fairness and imvartiality. He is a pronounced supporter of Hurri- son, but the friends of other candidates knew that as chairman of the conven- tion he could be relied upon to treat all sides fairly, and it is entirely safe tosay that the result will show this confidence to be well founded. Chairman McKin- ley will be faithful to the candidate of his choice, but ho will take no unworthy advantago of those who prefer another candidate. Tt s in place hero to ob- serve that he is fully equipped for per- forming the dutios of a presiding officer, and no man would be more likely to firmly hold the, convention to vhe busi- ness in hand. THE suggestion thag in a certain con- tingency tho Hill support in New York might go to William C. Whitney, who was secretary of the navy in the admin- istration of President Cleveland, implies that in tho event of Hill withdrawing from the contest he would have no influ- ence in determining who his supporters should pue forward, for it is hardly prob ablc he would selcet, Mr. Whitney s his volitical legatee. That gentleman is too closely identitied with Mr, Cleveland to be acceptable to Hill under any eircum- stances. There is said tobea very friend- ly feeling in Tammany toward Whitney, however, and it is just possible that con- ditions might arise which would lead that organization to give him its sup- port. The chances of this, however, are oxtremely small and remote. THE council hug authorized the city attorney to settle the 810,000 suit brought by Liziie Richards for in- juries received by falling through a de- fective sidewalk, the ’plaintiff having agreed to accept $2,500; No doubt this is a good settlement for the city, and the taxpayers have redgon to, congratulate themselves upon. gatting off so easily, but it should be borne1n mind that it is easier and better inevery way to prevent such accidents than o pay for them even on such favorable terms, The un- safe walks in this city ought to be at- tendad to more carefully than they are. A large amountof work in that line could be done for $2,500. THE trades assembly of Chicago has decided that there is too much water in the beer sold in that civy. If itis the same water that Chicago uses for drink- ing purposes there would seem to be some ground for complaint. BLAINE made a coup d’etat. But Mr. Harrison has made a coop for votes.
