It affords 0o more geound for controve than that famous utterance of Grover Cleve- tand—"*I'ho soil rewaius in its place.” | and A DEMAND FOR ACTION. Somo weeks ago a resolution was in troduced in congress providing for an investigation of the Pinkertoa detec: tive system, with a view to ascertaining 1d whoether any action is ne by congress to regulate its operation in the various states of the union. The resolution was referred toa committec, and nothing has since been heard of it. The denlors rurrence at Homestead, Penn., for which the em- ployment of the Pinkerton mercenarios appears to be directly responsible, will undoubtedly direct the attention of con- gress to the proposed investigation and prompt action is to be expected if it be thought that the matter is one of which congress can properly take notice. It is remembered that the objection was raised to the resolution at the time of its introduction that the subject was outside the authority of congress and could only be dealt with by the states individually, buv if this position be sound it does not necessarily prevent an investigation which would enable the country to obtain acorrect knowledge of the system under which bodies of men are reeriited by a private agency, armed with dendly weapons and sent on demand to any part of the country. The public has no Knowledge asto whethier the Pinkerton system b logal status or is operating independent of all law. It is obviously important to know how this is, and what1s the ve sponsibility of an that holds itsell ready at all times to furnish a force of armed men and send them to any point in the country where they m called for. It is pertinent to inquire where the authority is derived from which permits a fow men to maintain a privato army available at all times for police or other service in any state of the union. It is desirable to know which of the states, if any, has given to this detective agency the right to go whero it will and hire and arm irresponsible its character e o agency v be men for the purpose of invading other states, usuvping the functions of the local authorities and overaweing and shooting down citizens, The publie mos urally desires in formation on all these points, and it ought to haveit. The congross, repre senting tho whole people, is properly regarded as the source from which the information should be provided, and it has at its command the best means for sccuringit. It may not have the power to suppress the s its operation, out it methods and express opinion as to whether or not it is a system hostile to the rights of the people and dangerous to public pence and order, and if it be not competent to do more than this the people will then know how to proceed. Manifestly something must be done. Toleration of a system which can pro- duce such a stato of affairs as exists in the Pittsburg iron districts must inevit- ably encourage the organization ineve y part of the country of bands of armed mercenavies, until the country will swarm with men ready at a moment’s notice, at the instigation of anybody wiio ‘m or regulite ascertain its can an can pay them, to trample on the rights of the people and commit outragesin the name of law. The bloody business at Homestead is cortain to urouse popular hostility to the Pinkerton system as it has never been aroused before, and there will be a demand for action to suppre ed. to the system which will not bé ignor CY AND 4 POLICY. THE DEMOCR FOREIGN The democratic platform contains no more impudent declaration than this: “The democratic party is the only party that has ever given the country a foreign policy consistent and vigorous, compelling respect abroad and inspiring confidence at home,” It isnot necessary to review the eatire history of the demo- cratic party in order to show the false pretense of this claim. It will be quite suflicient to refer to the record of the last democratic administration regard- ing a foreign policy. It was during that administration that the controversy respecting the rights of the United States in Samoa. England and Germany were endeavor- ing to obtain the control of the Samoan islands, involving a preponderance of influence in tho Pacific ocean, Tho policy of Germany had been esneeially aggressive npd there wus imminent danger of tho success of her plans. The United States protested against the course of the Kuropean powers in the interest of the rights of this govern- ment and of its eitizens in Samon, but this is as far as the Cleveland adminis- tration went. ‘T'here olonged discussion which promised no practical results, and it was not until tho Harri- son administration came in and took decisive steps that the matter was brought to an honorable and satisfactory conclusion, securing home rule to Samon and a guaranteo of protection to all American rights and privileges there. The conduct of the Bering sea con- troversy wus another striking examplo of tho “consistont and vigorous” foreign policy of the democratic party. It would be diflicult to find in the wholo history of diplomney u wenker and more bungling and humilinting treatment of #1most important issue than was that of the Cleveland administeation in this case, It did not go o fav in its timid vacillaving policy o quite destroy the American position, but it did impair it, and had that administra- tion been continued in power wo should vrobably have nothing now to contend for. Evervbody familine with the tory ot this controvery will remembe the humiliating attitud» in which the country was placod by the feeble efforts of Secrotary Bayard and the us his. rrogance naturally assumed in the eircumstunces by tho British gbvernment It was with a sense of shame that American citizens, were compolled to confess that either our cuse was inde- fensiblo or that the administration was incapablo of defending it. The situn- tion was speedily chunged, however, after the Harrison administeation took hold of the controversy. The British government did not long maintain its supercilious bearing, and tho result w that it agreed to submit the questions in controversy o arbitration and en terod into an arrangement to put a stop meanwhile to pouching in the wuters over which tho United States elaims Jjurisdiction. It need hardly be waid THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: "LHUR that the course pursued by the Cleveland administation couald have se- cured these conce: never fons. tie administration less worthy of commenda- tion than in the management of our in- ternational relations.

The failure of the Cleve- land administration in this respect left an opportunity for its successor which it has improved to the great advantage, to the honor and to the entire satisfac tion of the country. WHAT WILL SIANLEY DO NEXT? Henry M. Stanley, tho unionist candi- date for parlinment in North Lambeth, one of the most populous districts in London, has been defeated, his liberal ness, heart competitor having sscured a majority of 150, which is a reversal of about 600 votes since the Iast election. The fam- ous explorer’s defeat is doubtless due in some mensuroe to his American antec dents. e was not English enough to suit the electors of the district. *“Go back to Ameriea!” was one of the cries of the mob that brobe up the meeting on the oceasion when he and his wife were assaulted and had to flee to pe Mr. Stanley is not a poli- know how to handle Ward Beecher sarsago. kven ese bodily injury. tician and did nov an English mob as Hen did in Liverpool thirty ye Mrs. Staniey’s tact and charming per- sonality could not save her husbund from defeat. No doubt there were numerous causes for the hostility to Mr. Stanley. The memory of the famous rear-guard episode has not yet died out in London, and this may have prejudiced his ease. At all events his stormy can- vass has been a failure and he will have to give up his new ambition. The disappointment of the explorer’s Iinglish wife will naturally be great. It was by her wish that he stood for parliament. She wished him to turn his face away from Africa forever. Pos- sibly this political disaster may again change the course of his life and turn s attention once more to exploration and discovery. He has the heroic qual- ities of a general but lacks thuso neces- sary for the successful politician. BANISH THE PINKERTONS, The bloody conflict now in progress between the workingmen recently em- ployed in the Pittsburg iron industries and the Pinkerton police cannot fail to arouse the people of this country to the fact that the employment of armed mer- cenuries is at varianco with the spirit of our free institutions. In a repablic like ours there can be no place for bands of brutal hirelings mustered by corporate monopolies under protoxt of defending theiv property from mob 1 The rights of property of the humblest individual are vic as sacred as those of the most mighty corporation. Carnegie’s groat steel works are entitled to the sam: protec- tion at the hands of the civil autho ties as the property of any citizen of Pennsylvania when nenaced by riot or outlawry. Carnegio and his iates had the right to call upon the civil authorities of Pennsyivania to protect their works from intrusion by their late employss. It was their duty fivst to call upon the sheriff of Alleghony county and the constabulary, and if the sherifl’s force ass were inadequate to cope with the assailants then they shoula have called upon the governor of Penn- sylvanian to supplement the sherifi’s force by militin. If the militia of DPennsylvania were overpowered then” tl governor of Pennsylvania would be in duty bound to president of the United States eral troops. This is the only legal method of pro- teeting property rights under our form of government. Every attempt to re- sist mob violence by Pinkerton mere naries is a subversion of the law and has time and agmn proven iwselfl to be an ncentive to bloodshed. Ours is n gov- ernmoent of law and order. The Pinker- ton mercenaries aro a relic of feudal barbarism, They are unrepublican and undemocratic. They must bo outlawod and banished from this land by acts of congross and by stuto legislation, I upon the for fed- PROOF OF PROSPERITY, The business failures in the United States for the first six months of the present year number 5,503, as against 6,074 during the sume period last yoar, showing a decrease of 571, The total linbilities of all the failuves of the firat six months of this year, ending on June 80, are $62,000,000, while for the corr sponding period last year th #02,000,000, which shows a decreaso of #10,000,000. the state of Nebraska during the six months just ended the total number of failures was 117 and the total liabil- ities were $060,056, During the samo period last year there wore 202 failures in this stato and the total liabilities were $1,236,800. In 1890 there during the first six months 202 failures, the samo number as in the correspond- ing period of 1802, but the liabilities y were wore were somewhat smallor, being only 100, It will bo seen that these figures show u murked improvement this year in the prosperity of the stuto. They do not indicate merely tho pros- perity of those who are engaged in trade, for it is a recoguized axiom of busiuess that the prosperity of the teadesmun deponds upon that of the people at large.

Thé) Average for the first half of this year 1s only a little over $8,000, which is mugh smaller than that of most of the stutes in the union. The failures in Canada'“and Newfloundland for the same peripd average nearly $1,000,000 each, the total amouny of lia bilities being $8.28¢ The figures presented prove that the country is going forward and not back- ward.

Jobbing houses report that collections wore never so good with country mor- chants and some of the country banks have offered 6 per cent money to cortain responsiblo business firms 1n this city. There is every evidence that Nebraska farmers aro able to pay and are paying their debts. A prominent firin in this city, in lieu of borrowing 6 per cent money offered by somo of the savir banks in the state, has sold its bills ceivable, farmers’ § per cent paper, to country bankers at par. Two or three years ngo most of the country banks would not touch such paper, and the fow who did took itat 10 per cent and 15 per cent discount, If there is any stronger proof than thisof the prosper- ity of Nebraska farmors, Tne B is yet to learn of it. re- THE city is threatened with another damage suit for injuries received froma dilapidated wooden sidowallc.
