It makes little difference. CARL SCHURZ vouches for Cleveland’s popularity in New York. Now, who wiil vouch for Shurz’s judgment on politici] affairs? THERE is no use talking about the democrats carrying I[ndiana. Tom Hendricks was the only democrut who could carry that state, and he is dead, ‘WE FEEL very sorry for Governor McKinley this morning as he reads how utterly his pet theories were de- molished by young Mr. Bryan last night.

THE engineer of the city hall in Den- ver has just been dismissed by the mayor for extravagance in the use of coal.: We judge from this that the backbone of winter is broken in Denver. ONE thing has been conclusively demonstrated by the outcome of the Ne- braska Central election. The corpora- tion bosses cannot control the votes of the wageworkers employed under them. TrE New York World is bard at work defeating President Huarrison in the same vigorous manuer aud with the same brilliant, italic type with which it elected the democratic ticket in Rhode Island. REAL estate dealers will presently oxperience a stiffening in prices of Omaha dirt. The tremendous majority given the Nebraska Central is a stimu- lant that will make itself folt not only at home but abroad. —_— THE re-election of Senator Aldrich by a vote of nearly twice as much as his opposition is a distant echo of the war In Rhode Island last March in which Cleveland 8o overwhelmingly carried the state for the republicans. — S0 FAR only one boy has been drowned In Omaha this summer. There are plenty of ponds about the city in which boys are constantly swimming or sailing on rafts. But if these pools of water are left a littlo longer they will begin to get in their deadly work in another way. IN PUTTING the new rool upon the democratic wigwam in Chicago in place of the one that was biown off a large number of posts huve been used to sup- port it, and it is said they will be very annoying.. But a democratic conven- tion always needs a good many posts. TEDMOND has evidently no mission for the Irish causo in this country. Hjs de- votion to Parnell when Parnell’s course demanded the condemnation of all true [rishmen and his enmity to Dillon and Fitzgerald. simply becausa they con- wred Parnell, are not points calculated to win favor in America, — Now that Omaha hus demonstrated that her people are determined to push shings in spite of mossbacks, croakers and obstructionists, sho will soon dis- tance her rivals nocth and south and take her proper rank us the largest com- meveinl and industrial conter between Chicago, St. Louis and San Francisco, WE Are gratified to know thav our vigilant contemporary, the i.-11., finds the result of the bond election just as it had prodicted. If it had gone the other way that sheet would also have heen able to claim with equal truthfulness tuat the clection went just as it had pre- dicted. Our lynx-eyed contemporary is very much like a ferry boat. It is al- ways in position to run in either direc- tion, —— Turk aldermen of Chicago never have had the reputation of being very digui- fied, but the following from the Herald shows that they need to bo takeuout into the woodshed and judicious'y sprouted: “At the last meeting of the eity council the aldermen forgot all ideas of propri- ety und decency and demeaned them- selves liko a lovof ragged urchins at a bootblacks’ picnie. Waste-papor bas- kets, books, coats and paper balls were thrown freely about the room and for a considerable time the wildest confusion prevailed,” R Al THE OMAHA DAILY A VICTORY FOR OMAHA. The decisive vote by which the Ne- braska Central bond proposition has been endorsed affords gratifying proof of the determination of our izens to remave the embargo which for years has been the most serious drawback to the growth of Omaha. Up to the day of election the opponents of the Nebraska Central were confident of their ability to defent the proposition. A two-thirds vote in the face of organized opposition equipped with abundant means and backed by powerful corporations is very hard to get. But the peovle of Omaha were aroused as they never had been before. They realized that they had everything at stake in carrying the bondsand could not bo swerved from their purpose by appeals and threats. True, the subsidy voted to the Nebraska Central is enormous, but it isa mere bagatelle in view of the magnitude of the enterprise and the incalculable ben- efits Omaha will derive from its execu- tion. *With the Nebraska Central as an assured fact, Omaha has not only for- ever settled herstatus asa great railroad center but has muade certain the estab- lishment of a great grain market. This means un inerease of 50,000 population in the next five years, It means the in- fusion of renewed confi dence and il- ity. It menns that the year 1893 will witness greater business activity in Omuba than we have ever scen in this city bofore. While Tie B s not given to vain- glorious bonsting it may justly claimthe credit of being an important factor in what it sincerely believes to be the greatest victory Omaha has ever achieved for her permanent prosperity. A VARIETY COF ESTIMATES, There is a confusing varicty of esti- mates of the probable strength of eandi- dates in the Chieago convention, There will be 900 delegates in the convention, 80 that 600 will be necessary toa choico under the two-thirds rul One Cl land estimate gives him 581 votes, 225 opposed und ninety-four dountfuls another places his voto on the first bal- lot at 500 and Hill’s at 260, the rest being divided among the other | candidates. Several [Hill estimates have been issued, the latest of which at hand gives him 816 votes on the first ballot and Cleveland 47 the other: being distributed to Palmer, Carlisie and Bojes. An apparently disinterested estimate, made up at Washington, gives Cleveland 421 and Hill 18: The signidcant fact about these est1- mates is that even those mado up by the friends of Mr. Cleveland do not allow him the necessary two-thirds, while he is conceded a majority on the first bullot by the Hill supporters. here is no doubt that Cleveland will go into the convention with a support approximat- ing pretty closely to two-thirds, and the question will very likely arise whether the principle that his prevailed in democratic conventions since 1856, that a candidate who has a majority of the votes is entitled to the nomination, shall bo respeoted. The probability is that no regard will be paid to this prin- ciple, and in that case the failure of Mr. Cleveland to secure the nomination on the first ballot would very likely be fatal to his chances, for the reason that he will doubtless show kis full strength at the ortset. Tho latest estimate of the friends of Mr. Cleveland of his vote on the first ballot, 500, cannot be re- garded in the circumstances as warrant- ing confidence in his nomination. As to M. Hill, hg simply has no chance at all and probably knows it. Reports of com- binations are beginning to come in, and the prospect is that there will be one of the most interesting fights in the his- tory of political conventions, OUR PACKING INTERESTS, The importance of the immense pack- ing interests at South Omaha have long been understood and appreciated by those who have studied the sources of this community’s prosperity, but they are destined to exert a still greator in- fluence upon the expansion of trade and manufacturing industries here. The growth of Omaha must of necessity be enormously stimulated by the rapid extension of the vast packing interests. Following closely upon the announce- ment recently made that Swift & Co. of South Omaha had commenced work on improvements in their picking busin t would increase the capucity of their establishment fully 25 par cent, comes the news of still further enlargement by the same enterprieing firm. The total capacity of their works is to be increased 100 per ¢ant, necessitating the employ- ment of from 1,800 to 2,000 men. These additional facilities will enable them to handle 3,000 beeves a day. The people of Omaha, and all whose interests aro contered here, have reason to rejoico at this prosperous outlook. A REMARKABLE ADMISSION, The New York Zim:s 1s a pretty thorough purtisan newspaper and has not of late years missed miny opporiunities tosay o word against the candidates und policies of the ropublican party but the renomination of President Har- rison has placed it in an uncomfortable position. Knowing very woll that the business intorests of the coun and the thoughtful people genorally are pleased with the administration of M, Ha son, it cannot very well find fauit with his candidacy for another term, but as u means of showing thai it has not lost fuith in Mr. Clevelund it puts the matter in this way: **Oae thing is per- foctly plain to every sensible observer, and that is that a canvass for the presi- dency with Harvison and Cloveland as candidates would veduce the disturb- ance to business to the lowest bossible amount, und would, in fact, practically prevent uny serious disturbance what- aver.” “The significance of this will be appre- ciated by all who know how ardently the Zimes ndmives Mr. Cloveland. For some years that admiration has been almost beyond expression. It has amounted to a sort of idolatry, arnd the numo of the ox-president has been put forward on all occaslons us one to be spoken reverently. But now this great prophet of reform is named side by side with President Harrison, and the re- wurkablo admission is made that the canvass of the republican candidate will not disturb business any more than that of Mr. Cleveland would. But this extraordinary admission has a meaning that oxtends bayond the pe sonality of the two men. The Times is afree trade papes if thers is ons any- where. President Harrson stands for protection. Are we to understand that this great organ of Cleveland, and free trade regards tho protectivo policy as one that will bs viewed with com- placency by the business interests of the country? 1f so, there is no occasion for argument on this subjeot. It may be assumed that the republican policy suits all who are not opposed to it or dis- turbed by it. In other words, it may bo taken for granted that the country is plensed with the president’s adminis- tration, and not at all disposed to be alarmed by the prospect of his re- election, OMAHA AND THE STATE AT LARGE. One of the speakers at the banguet given to the Nebraska Business Men’s association remarkéd upon the growth of friendly feeling toward Omaha in other parts'of the state. There was a time, he said, whon the retail merchants in portions of Nebraska would not buy of Omahn manufacturers and jobbers, but the feeling of hostility had largely died.out and now the people of the stato generally are proud of 1its metropolis and glnd of the progress and prosperity of Omnha. This is the sentiment that ought to generally provail, because the bemefits to accrue from it are mutual, It is the sentiment which the bus men of this city have been striving to cultivate, and it is gratifying to know that they have been largely successful. Omuha appreciates its dependence upon the growth and prosperity of its sister cities and of the whole state and desires to foster the closest business relations with every part of the state. All citi- zens of Nebraska should see the mutuality of interests involved in build- ing up the metropolis of the state and strengthening its financial and commer- cial power. It is manifestly wiser to do this than to contribute to the upbuilding of commercial centers outside of the state which coula exert no influence in behalf of Nebraska interests and would dreaw from rather than increase our pros- perity. Properly considered, there ean be 1o rivaley between Omaha and any Nebraska city, and whatever there may bein the way of emulation should be entirely friendly. The people of this city heartily welcome evidences of growth and prosperity througnout the state in all departments of business. They have no feeling of jonlousy or envy toward any other community. What- ever malkes foir the advancement of Ne- braska affords them gratification. This feeling, it is most pleasing to know. is being quite generally reciprocated by the state at large, and thare is every assurance that ina short time there will be no trace anywhere of hostility to the commercial interests of Omaha, which are ideutical with those of the entire state and the growth of which must i evitably contribute to the general wel- fare. THE HOPE OF DARK HORSES. The air is full of rumo-s of deals and concessions and compromises among the men who figure most prominently in connection with the democratic nomina- tion for president, but the only thing that seems to be clear is that Mr. Cleve- land’s supporters in the convention will be far stronger numerically than those of any other candidate. Within the past fow days the friends of the Minor candidates and dark horses have begun to hope for a turn of affairs that will leave an opening for their favorites, but this hope is based upon nothing buy the prospect that the majority mny yield to the demands ot the minority and throw tho ex-president overboard. In that event there would be a rush of minor candidates for the prize snd the man havinz the strongest following among those not identified inany way with either Cleveland or Hill would undoubt- cdly be chosen. Among the new can- didates is Voorhess of Indiana, whose friends have just set on foot a boom that is attracting a grout deal of attention in his own state. They say that he can save Indiana if he is nomivnated, and that he could get the whole vote of his party in New York. The friends of Giorman ave not idle meanwhile, and Palmer, though a pronouncel Cleve- land man, and therefore not available as a compromise eandidate, is being urged strongly by his backers. Noar the bot- tom of the list is Boies of Towa, who will have a very small number of demonstra- tive and hard-working delegates. One of the influences that will be felt in Chicago is that of the New York mugwumps, and the alternative which they offer will puzzle the delegatos. The Kvening Post, which is a fair repre- sentative of the mugwump sentiment, warns the democrats that they cannot have the floating or independent vote unless they nominate Cleveland, *‘If they wish to drive this balance of power over tu the republicans,” it adds, “they ean find no more effective way to do so than by rejecting the man who lifted the party out of the Siough of Despond,” and more to the same purpose. Here is the devil and the deep sea again. The indupendents will beat the ticket if Cleveland is not on it, and 'Lminmany will defeat it if he is. These are the conditions that grve hope to the minor candidates aad the dark horses with booms yet unborn, It is not surprising that they are going right on with their ardless of the big Cleveland majority ulready nssured. — ALBION W, TOURGE views of an impending negro uprising are not likely to alarm the country. The fact is, while Mr. Tourgee isa man of intelli- genceand knowledge of southern affairs, his views ave those of an extremist. The race problem is being settled as all moral questions have been and will be sottled, by education. — THE Omaha Belt Line railrond has again béen returned to the State Board of Equalization us part of the Missouri Pacific railroad for assessment and tax- ation at mileugo rates. This is in di- rect violation of the law which requires railroads that have theic terminals within the limits of one county to be nssessed the same as any other real and personal property for local taxation by appointed by the president. BEIR 2SATURDAY, the precinct ns¥Wiihrs, whether the o The question is and county authorities are going to supmit to this imposture. The Belt Line il {s computed to be worth from $7,000,000 to $8,000,000. At one-tenth of its_actual value it should pay city and edunjy taxes on at least $800,000. At the #niloago rate it is ap- praised at $08,( and that portion hin the city liffits pays taxes-only on .000, o at least §700,000 less than it sbould be assessed at 10¢ city purposes, SoME weeks ago the council, acting as a board of health, took action looking to the abatement of the stagnant water nuisance in various parts of the city, but as yet nothing has been done. Owners of property on which these of- fensive and diserse-broeding ponds exist were to be ordered to fill them up at once, but they have not done 8o, and there seems to bo no prospect that any- thing will be done untit the work is taken in hand by the city authorities. Tt should not be neglected longer, for there is danger to public health in these stagnant pools, which have al- ready become warm and will soon give forth foul gasoes. A number of diphtheria cnses have been roported during the past few days, and other discases of a contagious and dan- gerous nature may be ciused by neglect of the pools of stagnant water now lying in many basins about the city. Ture opponents of the Nebraska Cen- tral might have saved their illiterate voting cattle a good dsal of trouble by letting them vote blanks. That would have counted just the same against the proposition and would have aciommo- dated the men who did no know where to put their X mark. OMAA bank clearings, like the merecury, are going up.

J''NE 18, 1392, DUN'S REVIEW OF THE WEEK Good Crop Outlook Aots as a Stimalant to Business Everywhere. SATISFACTORY TRADE IN STAPLES Reports from the Businéss Centers of the Country—Some of the Features of Week on Wall Street—Clear- ing House Statements, New Yong, June 17.—R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says: ‘The hot weather and hot polities togethor have affectea business at many points, but thore is, nevertheless, improvement both in actual trade and in prospects. Ono obvious cause is the swift improvement in the crop outlook. Tho iron output June 1 was 175,174 tons woekly, only 2.712 tons less than May 1, while unsold stocks have decreased 20,437 tons in spite of some inoroaso at tho south. Southern No, 1 is sold at $14.50 here and somo Lohigh companies are cutting prices. Sales aro large, the demand for structural sheot and bar is improving, and even in rails the wost still finds a somewhat botter mar- kot. The demand for stecl beams is still affected by the los prices, 21{ cents being noted. Np improvement is seen in copper atl1¥ cents, London speculation has hoisted tin to 22 cents, but lead 1s weakor at $4.10. ‘I'here 1s talk of a further advanco in coal, the combination requiring more for uso. Roports from Clties. Business 1s fairly active at Boston and the shoe trade excellent, though ordors wero checked by western floods. Leather is very firm.

At Pittsburg tho demund for Hinisked 1ron is good, the prospect of wage difficultics stimulating orders, Hardware is very active and glass unchanged. At Chicago the volume of business is in- creasing in all lines, receipts of oats show somo incroase over last year, of cured meat asixth, on hors and cattle a fifth, of tour and rye two-thiirds, while of drossed beof re- coipts are double, of lard three times and of barley four times last year's, A decrease of a third is seon in wheat and _wool and some decrease in hides, cheeso and butter. At St. Louls business is reasonably good and at Kansas City fairly satisfactory, with large recoipts. The crop outlook 1s brighter at Milwaukeo and remarkably good at Minneapolis with trade bottor than last year; lumber is active, and the flour output the largest on record— 214,000 barrels, against 133,000 last year, Omaha's Trade Active. At Omaha improvement is seen in dry oods, shoes and_ hardware, and at Denver trade is very good. At New Orleans sugar is quict and steady, and monoy plenty with very littlo demand. Westorn recoipts of wheat continue at the rate of 600,000 bushels daily and the exports nearly 400,000, but the surplus to be carried over will doubtiess reach 50,000,(00.

Beforo that the market showed every disposition to drift into a slow liquid tion on the gloomy prospects for tho crops and for the railrond oarnings, which are de- pendent on them, The announcoment that a air yiold of grain, if not ono up to the best yeal prior to 1801, was in sight, caused an immedalate stampede in the ranks of the pro- fossionals who had boen endeavoring for weeks back to depress prices. Tho best support to the market came from Chicago and the west, the very quarter ‘whence the recent bearish views on the situ- ation bad boen distributed, the sharp decline io wheat emphasizing the change of feeling in regard to rallroad properties, One noces- sary ingredient was, howover. lacking, for a gouuine bull market. The readiness of the aciive traders to work on the oull sido did not supply buyers to continue the advance started on the covering of shorts, Tho bear interest wWhs large enough to serve as a tom- porary purchasing power, but when it was exhantted neither Europe nor the public seemed to bo ready to continue the work of elevating prices. London was an inconso- quential factor, selling littlo here, but buying very sparinely. Commission houses showed more activity than has been seen for s0mo weeks, but the support from that source ‘was too scattering and timid to make any impression. A rise in the exchange and gold shipmonts, which on Friday assumed largor proportions, making a total outflow of $7,100,000 for tho weok, with general anticipations of its con- tinuance, also had some effect, and realizing salos started a docline to which ronewed boar attacks gave a further impetus, Fri- day’s market was accordingly irregular and depressed, though a fairly strong uudortone, and ospecially in the granger stocks, checked any decided i prossion on_pricos. ‘I'ho westorn grain-road stocks woro the feature of the markor. R — AGAINST THE UNION. Cigarmakers Lose Thelr Label Fight' in the District Court. ‘The case of tho state against Thomas ( lispio of South Omaha in the district court is attracting considerabie attention, espe- clally among the membors of the trades unions of tho oity. Tho defondant is a South Omaha saloon- keoper, and boing in that line of business ho handlos cizase Duriug tho early vart of September, 1891, tho members of the cigarmakers union of South Omaha cluim to have discovered that Gillispio was using tho counterfoited labols of the Cigarmakers Tinion of America, They at ouce apprised Gillispio of tho fact, and in plain language ho told them that ho knew his own business. A few days later the president of the union wrote Gillispio a letter, in which ho was informed that 1f ho continued to use the unton labol on tenemont house cigars he would be prosecuted. No attention was paid to this, and on October 13, 1891, S, D. Rogers of the South Omwaba union fiied a complaint with _Justice Breen, in_which ho charged that Gillispie was violating the laws of the state by using a lubel, which ho alloged was a counterfeit of the label adopted by tho International union for its protection and the protection of the local unions. The case was' heard and Gillispie held to the district court, the judge holding thay laws of thostate of Nebraska protected the union in its label, which Was a trade mark. “The case was at once appealed to tho dis- trict_court, where Gillispio claimed that the prosecution was malicious and was in- stigated because ho would not buy his cigars at the South Omaha factory.
