A MACEDONIAN ery, “Come over and help us,” has ngain arisen from Kansas, but it asks only aid to rid the state ofits burden of rich harvest. THE spectacle of a be sing o note for $40 to attend the New York Christian Indeavor meeting is only an illustration of the familinr fact thatzeal and honesty have often no necessary connection. HONESTY I8 the best policy. If the Nebraska republicans are honest in the selection of their svate ticket they will carry the state. The people’s party has no just claim on prosperous Nobraska. MR. STEVENSON has at last received that letter from Cleveland and the pub- lic is anxious to know whether it was the bluefish, Ruth or the ‘“‘present inef- ficient mail service” which caused its delay.

Wyoming is distinctively a state. The stock business is the para- mount industry there. Comparatively fow have contiolled the great ranges of the state, and they have nate urally antagonized the conditions which threaten the curtailment of their priv- ileges. The result has been to retard the progress of settlemeat in Wyoming. The fecling of the cattlemen is expressed inn sentiment ascribed to the secretary of the Board of Live Stock Commisgion- ors, to the effect that “there are too many men and too few eattle in Wyom- ing.”” Tho increase of stock farms, due to the advent of a considerable number of settlers in certain districts, is re- garded with disfavor by the cattlemen, and it is claimed ‘that the introduction of this new element into the situation oxerted an important influence in tho precipitation of the recent unhappy. everrts, The Irvigation Age, giving close nnd careful Wyoming affuirs, in the July issuo discusses the significance of the late confiict, with conclusions not fayorabie to the system which made it Tho -1ge points out that while there are but seven states inthe union larger territorially than Wyoming, that state stands forty-third in population, in which spect it is also behind all the territori Yet tho state is known to have great resources, which are not only undeveloped but unexplored, with the exception of , and also a greater available water supply and more irri- gable land thanany other western state, with the possible exception of Montana. Still it does not produce enough for its own needs, and s agricultural char- acter remains almost wholly to be worked out in the futur The reason why Wyoming has not advanced as othern states have isin the fact that she has followed one industry almost to the total exclusion of all others—an industry, remarks the ge, “which occupics the soil with cattle instead of men, aud, therefore, deprives the state of the labor, the genius and the aspiration of a large, growing and ad- vancing population,” There can be no doubt that the time hand when the catue business of Wyoeming must be adjusted to new con- ditions, and wien this is accomplished the state will realize a greater progress and a largor measure of prosperity than it has yet known. With the develop- ment of all her resources, instend of con- fining the onterprise and energy of her people to a single industry, Wyoming should in a few years take equnl rank with Colorado, Montanaand Idaho. The first practical step to the attainment of this position must be the utilization of her ample water supply for reciaiming the arid lands, of which it is estimated that 10,000,000 acres can be made avail- able for agriculture. NOT A PARTISAN CO. ROVERSY. Not quife all of the newspupers friendly to Grover Cleveland are dis posed to make politicul capital for their side out of the deplorable tragedy at Homestead. The New York Lvening Post, for example, makes a bitter attack upon the strikers and sneers viciously at their theory of workingmen’s rights, concerning which 1vsays: It is to be hoped that when the time comes for maintaining them they will not be re- stricted to operatives in iron mills, but made general, so that, for instance, if the hired men on a farm or a cotton plantation are not satisfied with their wages, or if their employer discharges them for any reason, they will have the right to seize the farm and commit an assault upon the farmer’s family.” The New York Sun, another journal which happens now to be a devoted advocate of democracy, has this; *There is noth- ing now to prevent the strikers at Homestead from opening the great Car negie plant on their own aceount, They ave in full of the property, they hold their title [rom the governor of Peunsylyania, and it only remains for them to capture Carnegio and his part- ners and force them o work as slaves in managing the business,” These are only specimens of the senti- ments expressed by democratic news- papers upon Lhis subject. It is sitaply absurd to argue from the Homestead trouble, assome have tried to do. thut the republican party is avrayed against workingmen and that the democratic party is on their side. It is the rankest demagogism to set up such a claim. It certainly is not at all to the credit of the demoeratic party that the violent outburst at Homestead has been intensi- fied by tho intemperate and foolish utterances of the democratic press. The affuir is too serious to be treated from a partisun standpoint. NEBRASKA'S DAIRY INTERESTS, There is a hint to the farmer in the wonderful present magniwde of the dn of what is known as the Elgin district in Ilinois. When the Elgin Board of s organized 1o 1872 only twelve represonted. The product wug 80,784 pounds of butter of cheese. Last year the number of factories had increased to 270 and their output was 25,006,052 pounds of butter and 6,232,492 pounds of cheese. The value of the butter was 6,272,501, 87 and that of the cheese was $408,500, 86, But this is not all, for the milk marketed from this district lust year nmounted to $2,400,000, making a grand total of $,171,10L.93 ua the product of a single year, We do not know the extent of the ter- ritory embraced in the Elgin di triet, but however large it may be itis evident from the figures given that the dairy interest must be a loading one with the furmers there. In Nebraska the dairy business has never commanded the at- tention of the farmers to any conside able extent. With unlimited gi \zing lands and good shipping fucilities the farmers of this state huve made ver) little progiess in the direction of butter or men which has been attention to possible. possession Nebraska rrowth and v interests cattlo | | \ making, a business that is safe and sure and requires but smail outlay of capital, To be strictly independent the farmer ghould have numerous sourcefof income, and this is one source thatcan never fail him entirely under the most unfavorable conditions, There nre very few butter makers in tho state who employ scien- tific methods and appliances in their dairies—very few, in fact, who give the subject any serious attention whatever. This is clearly shown by the condition in which their product often reaches tho Omaha mavket. 1t is more essential in the dairy business than in any other that neatness should be oteerved throughout the whole process of making and marketing, and the maker who does observe this prime essential issure to build up a reputation which will result in increased demand and fancy prices for his product. Instances of this could ensily be pointed out by any one ace quainted with the butter market in Omaha; but they are too rare, and the farmer should learn the important les- son that a prime article is always in de- mand at good prices, while an inferior article not only hurts the individual producer, but has a damaging effect upon the murket generally. It will take timo to develop the dairy possibilities of Nebraska. It will take time to learn the buginess, which re- quirc® careful and inteliigent manage- ment, and the needed equipments for successful butter making will no doubt come slowly and by piecemeal. But there is undoubtedly profit in it, and the time will come when the splendid dairy possibilities of this state will be devel oped and when one farmer in a hundred will not be selling his dairy product for double the price received by the other ninoty-nine. TAKE CARE OF 111E VISITORS, Thers are many strong reuasons why Omaha should make an effort to outdo herself 1n hospitality on the oceasion of the meeting of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, August 13-16, and the visit of the Knights Templar, who will stop here at that time on their way to their tri- enninl conclave at Denver. It is ex- pected that the guests will number in all at least 25,000, and as they are peo- ple who are accustomed to beinir well taken care of it will be necessary for our citizens to meet the demands of the oceasion in the best manner possible. So faras the Shriners are concerned the local templo of the order has done effective work in the way of prepara- tion, but its exceutive committeo says that the people of Omaha will have to be called upon for not less than $10,000 to properly entertain the Knights Templar. It is as important that the lutter should be agresably impressed by their treatment at the hands of the citi- zens of Omaha as that the Shriners should be handsomely entertained, for they represent a very large and influen- tial body of men. 1f this city is to make abid for the triennial conclave six ars hence this is a fiue opportunity to begin. The people generally do not and can- not realize how extensively Omaha i being advertised by means of the numer- ous conventions und meetings of various kinds which are bringing so many peo- ple here this year from ali parts of the country. Ilvery newspaper in the land has kept the name of this city before its readers for many weeks and will con- tinue to do so all summer. The visitors who have been here have gone away fu- yorabiy impressed with the city and its people, and it should be the common aim of all to see that those who are yet to come shall be equally well pleased. CLEVELAND MEN DISTRUSTFUL, Notwithstanding the seemingly hearty and sincere assurances which the Tam- many democrats have given of their purpose to support Mr. Cleveland in good faith, the friends of the ex-presi dent manifest a feeliug of distrust. They do not propose to leave the whole business of looking after the campaign in New York to the present dewmocratic machine, which is in the hunas of the men who swore allegiance to the cause of Hill, fought against Cleveland with all their might at Chicago, and are on record as having declared that the president could not carry New York. Croker, Cockran, I'lower and the rest have since confessed loyalty to the ticket, the name of Cleveland has been cheered by Tammany, and to all out- ward appenrances harmony prevails in the ramks of the Bmpire state democ- racy, but the loyal supporters of Mr. Cleveland ure not confident that these manifestations are sincere und trust- worthy. Accordingly they proposoe to keep up the organization which was effected at Syracuse. The provisional committeo is to continue in existence and to take such part in running Mr, Cleveland’s campaign as the regular committee may permit or as it shail find opportunity for. The leading spirits in the move- ment against Hill do not believe that a state committee controlled by the men who made the fight against Clevelan1 at Chicago can be safely depended un on to support the candidate they opposed with that degree of intorest and loyalty necessary to win in New York this year. They do not believe that the men whom Hill placed in control of the demoeratic muchine ean be trusted to run the cam- puign honestly, in spite of the promises and protestations of Croker and the democratic bosses. They feel that theso men at least need watching, and that in order to keep them in line there must ve a guard set upon them. The Syra- provisional committes which demonstrated its influence at Chicago cun meet these requiremonts most ef- fectively, aud therefore it is to be con- tinued in existence, with an established headquarters and the usual campaign machiner) That theve is reason for the distrust which tuis action implies is not to be doubted. The professed change in the disposition of Tammany since the Chi- cago convention very fow pesple believe to be sincere, but if it be conceded that s0 far as that politieal organization is concorned it will keep its pleage of a loyal supporgof Mr, Cloveland, there are still members of the democratic stute conimittee outside of Tammany and not at all subject to its commands who could work to compass the defeat of Cleveland without in the least compromising that orgunization. Asa matter of fact, the bitterest opponents of the ex-president cuse BEE: TUESDAY, were not Tammany men. Thessare the fellows whom PRE provisional committes will need to keop=an eye on. It is an interesting ang jpstructive fact which this nction djgeloses, It shows that thare s fio reARRMVinonY or gonfdehee ween the démceratic factions in New | York, and that all the professions of harmwony made since the Chicago cou- vention have failed to effect a sincere union between the warring ele- ments o the Empire state democracy. The plan of continuing the Syracuse committee may profe’to be wise, but it would seem that the distinetly implied lack of confidence in the honesty of the regular commitiee ‘charged with tho duty of running the campaign could hardly fuil to have an effect unfavorable to the cultivation of harmeny. 1t would not be at all surprising if it should resuit 1n urousing a sviriy of resentment. AXTEND THE PRE LIMIT. Omaha will surpriso herself this year by tho number of superb and imposin privato residences that ave being erected in vavious parts of the ecity. These elegant and substantial = structures would do credit to any eity in the coun- try. They are nearky ail constructed of stone, brick, tile and plate glass, which goes to show that we have passed out of the era of costly bailoon frames. The difference in the cost of a well- built and highly finished frame house is but a triflo less than a brick house with stono trimmings. The brick house will not merely outlast the frame, but cre- ates an impression of permanency which adds vastly to the appearance of all cities built of brick. And this suggests tho provrioty of extending our fire limits. As compared with Denver, Kansas City or St. Paul, Omaha appears w great disadvantage, beeause these cities are solidly built up in brick and stone. St. Paul isin the heart of the lumber ragion, while every foot of building lumber has to be brought from a distance of from 400 to 500 miles to Omaha, The advantage of building of brick must be apparent. Bvory dollar we pay out for brick will circulate at home, ana the more brick we use the greater will bo the ex- tent of its munutacture. In other words, if we incerease the demand for brick we will stimulate brickmaking, and that will be followed by a reduction in the cost of home-made brick. HE beet sugar industry in Nebraska isin its infancy. it is but a question of time when it will be one of the most valuable resources of the state. The obvious reason for this is that the soil and climate of, a large part of this state are peculiarly favorable to the produe tion of the sugar Beet, conclusively demonstrated that the Ne- braska grown beets are not excelled by those cultivated in any other part of tho world. It is also' a demonstrated fact that the growing of sugar beets can bo made very profitable. These considera- tions insure the.steady progress of the industry. Tn view of this prospect it is obviously desirable that Omaha shall tuke an active interest in the question of establishing here one ‘or more sugar This city ought to do a largo share of the refining of sugar produced in Nebraska, and undoubtedly @ if it shows the proper enterpriso. Indeed, Omaha might in time become a sugar refining center, drawing supplies of beets from contiguous states where the raising of them is contemplated, thereby building up a most important and profitable industry. This is a very ical matter to which our ought to devote serious attention. refineries, WHAT has become of the ordinunce regulating the inspection of telegraph, telephone, electric light and railway motor wires? Months ago the council created the office of city electrician, but for some renson which nobody yet has been able to explain the ordinance de- fining the powoers and duties of the city electrician has boen pigeon-holed. Meantime the wire nuisance continues, and life and property are endangered constantly by the deadly wires that are planted promiscuously aver and ac thorougifares and in contact wi our buildings, There can be only one ational explanation of the failur~ of the council to do its duty in the | and that is the pressure brought by in- terested corporations, and especially the electric lighting company, which draws 175 per year per lamp for lights of andlepower, when they may ' 'nhl\ substitute lamps of 1,000-candle power so long us there is no inspection. our mises, By 1iE end of this year ten commodi- ous school buildings costing in the neighborhood of #300,000 will bo com- pleted for the accommodation of the trons of our public schools.

A stal- | wart said yesterday : “If the republican party wants to pit a farmer against Favmer Van Wyck for gover. nor thero aro several very vrominent dark horses that may prove available, One of theso who is by no moeams an unknown quantity in the political history of Nebraska is Lawson Sheldon, a stalwart vepublican | farmer of Cass county.

He 1s & man of in- domitable courage and spotloss integrity. He was a member of tho territorial council during several sessious, and was also a mem ber of tho state senate in 1871—tho legisla- ture that was known as the long parliament. He was one of the mombers of tho scnate that voted for the conviction of David But ler in the impeachment trial and was the only man in that body with backbone enough 1o vote for his disfranchisement, saying that ifthe man was guilty ho should receive the fullest penalty of the law and suould bo de ourred from all participation in polities. Mr Sheldon s a courteous, oducated tleman and 15 very popular among his neighbors. “lcau name other good, solid, intelligent farmers who have grown up with the stato, any one of whom would grace the executivo chair, Ono of those 18 Isaac Noyes of Doug Ias county, who resides on a farm near Waterloo.

Heisa wood speaker and un able debater and withal a modest and unprotontious gentleman.,” Mr. Eugene Moore, candidate for the office of state auditor, was in the city last evening inspecting the political fences and in quest of an ovportunity to put his boomiet mto tho republican wagon. Mr. Mooro lives in the Third congressional district where he has an extonsive azquuintance and where e says ho has received most encouraging support from leading republicans who think that tho northeast counties are entitled to one name on the state ticket. Mr. Moore says that repudlicans up his way seem to be at sea as to the head of the ticket. Iverybody wants astrong man who can take the stump and lead the party forces. A Douglas county wman” would be accoptable if one can bo bronght out who wiil get tho full vote of the party and win others from the opposition. Mr. Wortham, who now occupics the posi- tion of treasurer of awneo county, is in Owmala on a mission similar to that of Mr. Youngers, Several ades preceded his ar- rival and his boom for the stato treasurer- ship can nosw be considered in £ ull blast, Mr. Wortham was, two years ago, the caudidate for the oftice of treasurer of Pawnee county. He took a bold stand against usurious rates of interest, declaring that it elected to the oMee of treasurer hie would not deposit a dollarof the county money in any bank that would charge the people a greater rate than the legal rate of interest, 10 per cent. ~ Within thirty days thereafter all tho banks in Pawnee county had lowered the rate of interest to 10 per cent. At toe last election Mr. Wortham was re-ciected by an iucreased majority and the republicans iu his county, and many of the leading citizens outside of the party, are in favor of his nomination for state treasurer. In this connection it might be appropriate to quote the following from the Lincoln News: “In some quarters it 1s contended that a banker should not be nominated for state treasurer, and it must be aamitted that past history 1n this conunection is not speci- ally reassuring.” John Moran, a leading merchaut und demo- crat of Callaway, is in the city. Althoug! intensely partisan he does not hesitate to say that there isn’t a democrat in tke Sixth | district wh can be elected to congress, but | he believes that tho republicans can defeat Kem and he names Jim Whitchead as the strongest man for the purpose. According 0 M=. Moran the democrats of tho west end would like to see Governor Boyd nominated for re-clection. Ace | Switzler was once a Sarpy coun for congressional honors, *“He is no good down here now,” says the Tymes. *He gave a positive promise to deliver an address in Papio on the 4th. He didn’t keop nis promisc. A man who will break a Fourth of July promise will broak a poiitical pledge.

Up to dute, he has professed 1o bo for Scott whiose boom i undergoing repairs at present, Thompson is big with the idea that ms elec- tion to the national convention meant that the people called him to the front ana that they will put him 1nto congress if bo but asks the place.
