Douglas county will be the battle ground of the campaign this year and the outcome in this county will determine the fate of the republi- can patty in the state not only for this yenr but for several years to come. Thoughtful republicans everywhere realize, that it is almost imperativeto th te ticket bya man who either h. 'om Omaha or the confidence and respect of our citi- zens to such un eminent degree as to assure him support from all clements of our population. Will Douglas county republicans throw away the opportunity for naming and electing the next governor, or will they allow solfish schemors and reckloss leaders to divide the party at the outsot by sending a mob to Linco!n instead of a compact, harmonious delegation that would command attention and exert in- fluence? Will Douglas county republicans in- vite dissension and disaster, or will they for once discard all factionalism for the suke of success? The caucuses of Saturday indicate a disposition in many of the wards to re- tire the professional delegate and bring to the front a class that has up to re cently kept aloof from caucuses and con- ventions. We trust that the advent of this new element moans botter things for the party. In some wards there is, a manifest attempt to thrust elements of discord into the convention and endeavor to prevent a union of all the factions in favor of Judge Crounse, who stands head and shoulders above any other candidate in point of ability and vopular confidencoe. This latter statement does not disparage the abili- ties of men who after urgent requests have pesitively declined. st possesses howeve AMERICAN WII PORTS. The exports of wheat from the United States during the past fiseal year have been 224,831,483 bushels. The quantity exported last year was only 106,000,000 bushele, and tho greatest amount sent abroad in any year previous to the last was in 1881, when the exports were over 186,000,000 1 Itis estimated that in spite of the unprecedented exports of last year there 1s now 50,000,000 bushels Deat in this country that has been od over. The highest price touched for No. 2 red winter wheat in New York during the fiscal year just closed was i August last, when it went up to 81 per bushel. In March it began to cline rapidly and in June the highest price obtainable was conts per bushel. It is predicted by close ob- servers of the conditions which govern the market that the large yield of this foreshadowed by the government ports, together with a surplus of 50, 000,000 bushels left over from last year, arily result in placing upon the market a supply of American wheat far oxceeding the foreign and home de- mands. This must mean reduced prices to the farmer unless there is a change in the conditions both at home and abroad. The outlook for a good corn market is more favorable. The crop will be a fair one, and notwithstanding that a consid- erable quantity of old corn remains on hand the greatly increased foreizn de- mand is likely to hold pricesup to a fair figure. The consumption of American corn in Burope is steadily and rapidly incrensing, and it is to be expected that it will continue to do so as a result of the enlightenment of the poorer classes there 28 to its merits an article of food. In this vespect corn hes an ad- vantage over wheat. hols, year a8 THE PINKERTO) It is entirely natural that the Pinker- tons should defend their business, and it wias to be expected that having had ample notice of an investigation by a committee of congress they would make at least & plausible statement of their case. They have shrewd lawyers in their service and they are able to com- mand the friendly opinions of others whenever needed. They are thus at all times ready to meet any inquiry that may be proposed regarding their opera- tions. The statement submitted by the Pin- kerton brothers to the judiciary com- mittee of the house of representatives was cavefully prepared, but none the less it is subject to criticism. The sertion that the oy selects the men employed in strike work with great care and only after a full investigation of their character and antecedents is at least questionnble, while there can be no doubt of tha fact that untrust- worthy men have been so employed. We bolieve it can be shown, also, that the statement is not true that Pinkerton men have never wantonly or recklessly fired a single shot in any of the strikes in which they have been employed. If we are not mistaken there have been several instances in which the people have been fired upon, with fatal effect, by these so-called detectives without ient provocation. It is true that none of them have been convieted, but the explanation of this is not diticult. The ramifications of the Pinkerton de- tective systom are very thorough, With regard to the force sent to Homestead, the Pinkerton brothers say that they contracted to furnish the men only upon the condition that they were to be sworn in as deputy sheriffs, The statoment to the committee further says: “They did not go into the state of Pennsylvaniaas an armed body or force, and we should not have permitted or assented to this, There was no in- tention or purpose whatevoer of arming them until they were on the property of the company at Homestead, and until and unless they had beor sworn in as the sheriff’s deputies.” It is also stated that the ‘men were instructed that they should not bo armed unless previously deputized by the shesiff. It all this be vrue no attention was paid to the orders of the Messrs. Pinkerton, for the facts ave that the force sent to Homested did invaae the state of Penn- sylvani body, ing no authority from the sherifl, that they ddnot wait to reach the property of the Carnegie company before being arwed, and that iu an sttempt to enter the proverty they fired upon the works ingmen with Winchester rifles and Killed #ix of them, The specious plea of the Pinkerton suf as an armed attorneys in behalf of the system the, are hired to aefend will not mislead the intelligent judgment of the American people. Nobody questions the right of individuals or corporations to nrovide for the protection of their property, but thisisto be done inthe regular way, agreeably to the prescribed forms of law. The existence of this right does not warrant the employment of an armed force recruited at large by pri- vate parties and acting independently of the law, ns was undeniably the caso with the body of Pinkertons sent to Homestend. The suprege court of Pennsylvania has declaved such a hody to be practically rioters, and this is the proper view to take of it, the opinion of the Pinkerton attorneys to the contrary notwithstanding. The statement of the Pinkerton brothers to the committee of the house of representatives will fail to convince the American peopis that tom of armed mercenaries is one that ought to be tolerated. THE ISSUE WITH CANADA. When the president shall have ap- proved, as undoubtedly he will do, the legislation of congress which provides for securing reciprocal advantages for the citizens and vessels of the United States in traffic through Canadian waters, there will be created an issue the result of which will be awaited by the people of both countries with un- common interest. In order to understand the true char- acter of the question involved, it is nec- essary to say that by article xxvii of the treaty of Washington, concfuded May 8, 1871, it was provided that¢ ns of the United States should have the same right to use the Canadian canals that recorded to the citizens of Canuda. language of the article is ths government of her Britannic r engages to urge upon the government of the Dominion of Canada to secure to the citizens of the United States the use of the Welland, St. Lawreace and other canals in the Dominion on terms of equality with the inhabitants of the Dominion; and the government of the United States engages that the subjects of her Britannic majesty shall enjoy the use of the St. C! IPlats canal on terms of equality with the inhabitants of the United States.” The obvious purpose of this article of the treaty of Washington was to give the people of the United States the same right to use the Domin- ion canals that was accorded to the peo- ple of Canada, and for this concession the United States granted what was deemed to be equally valuable privileges to citizens of Canada in American waters. As was stated in the house of repre- sentatives a fow days ago by Mr. Blount, chairman of the foreign affairs com- mittee, Canada has utterly failea to re- spect her obligations under this article of the treaty of Washington. On the contrary, she has for years exacted trib- ute from American vessels in clear vio- lation of the stipulations of the treaty. As was stated by Mr. Hity, another member of the foreign affairs commit- tee, “‘American trade is subjected to just ten times the burden to which nadian trade is subjectea in passing. through the Welland canal. Twenty cents a ton is lovied upon all; and when the 2o has passed through, if it goes toan American port, nothing is heard of this toll, but if 1t goes to a Canadian port for export 18 cents is handed back.’? In th's indirect way, said Mr. Hitt, for every $5,000 paid 1n cargoes going to Cunadian ports $50,000 is exacted from the grain raisers and shippers of our country. A heavy burden is thus im- posed upon the commerce of the north and northwest. The object of the legisla- tion by congress is to apply to Canadian citizens using our canals the same rule which they apply to American citizens using Canadian canals. There appears to be a disposition in Canada to resent the action of this gov- ernment, but how general 1t is remains to be developed. The probability is that after serious reflection, having become convinced that the United States means all that expressed in the legislation the Dominion government will conclude that the wiser course is to ccede to the demands of this country and make good the treaty obligations entered into more than twenty years ago, and which have been faithiully ob- ed by the United States government, It is pertinent to remark that party or political considerations are not involved in this issue. Men of all parties agree that the time has come to compel our northern neighbors to respect the treaty rights of American citizens or take tho consequences. e e DEVELOPMENT OF THE NORTHWEST, The jobbers of this city penetrate ns far north as the province of Manitoba and sell their goods to its people who, although 1,000 miles away, are gen- erally regarded here as not very dis- tant neighbors. In the eastern part of the province of Ontario, where the weulth and business enterprise of Canada are centered, there is a strong feeling of hostility to the United States, which is based upon no botter ground than the fact that American manufacturers and traders, particularly those of the western states, are able to compete with the manufacturers and merchants of eastern Canada for the trade of this great region. To this focling of jealousy is largely due the present attitude of Canada concerning veciprocity with the United States. The capitalists of eastern Canada wish to maintain their hold upon the business of the central and western portions of the Dominion. The money and the politicul power of Canadaare centered in the east and nothing but the selfishness and greed of the eastern Canadian capitalisis stands in the way of the establishment of reciprocal trade relutions which would bo advantageous both to the peo- ple of Canada and those of the United States, A movement is now on foot in Mani- tobu in favor of reciprocal arrange. ments which will enable the people of that, province to profit by the proximity of American markets and sources of sup- Py to the southward. A convention is s00n to be held in which there will be ropresentatives from Manitoba and from stites on this side of the liae, and the object is to discuss reciprocity and to endeavor to bring about relations which DAILY B TUESDAY, | &t will bs mutually advantageous to the citizens of both ddutitries. The area of Mgnitoba is about 120.000 square miles. It is remarkably produc- tive of cereals and, has also groat min- eral wealth. Its dévetopment, even under unfavorable condffions, has been wonder- ful. In 1881 there were only 62,000 pao- ple in the entire province; now there are | 170,000; in 1881 tKere' were only 128 pub- lic schools; now there aro nearly 800. In the same period the increase in grain production has bean from 1,000,000 bushels to 43,000,000 bushels. The growth of the flotir milling capacity and the railroad facilities has been at about the same ratio. The people of Manitoba naturally desire closer relations with their neighbors on this side of the line. Reciproeal arsangements that would be mutually advantageous would be wel- comed by them. To the states near the border, and even to Nebraska, closer trade relutions would be -equally wel- come. Itis reasonuble to expect that the time will come when the enmity and jealousy of castern Canada will no longer be able to defer the day of reci- procity, A common interest will at length prevail and both sides will be gainers, —_— IT 18 rather significant, in view of the fierce attack of the people’s party upon national bunks, that their number in this country is really aecreasing in pro- portion to the number of private banks. In many cases natipnal banks are boing changed into private banks and the reason for this is very cloar. There is not the onportunity of making money in the national banks which there is in the private banks on nceount of the rigidity of the law under which national banks are conducted. There is no chanée for the speculation and dishonesty so often indulged in by private banks. But against tho latter the populists have nothing to say. This shows their 1gnor- ance, or duplicity, on this subject. WEALTH can purchnge no immunity from the perils of the sea, nor from any other dangers that beset mankind. W, K. Vanderbilt and his millionaire ghiests, who very narrowly escaped bs- ing sent to the bottom with the floating palace thnt was run down by a steamer in the fog, fared no better than thoy would if they had been a crew of fisher- | men. And for once in their lives they knew what it was to go scantily clad. TaE World- Herald wastes a half-page of its white paper in attempting to prove Thomas H.
