HOW the country towns of Anamosa and Council Biuffs would have the laugh on the city of Omaha if C. . Scott should bo aceidentally cleeted to con- gross. WHEN the democrats announce pub- licly that they will carry Illinois this yoar, titey lnbor under a gricvous error that the American people is o race of marines, Tk presence of many oratore from abroad in o state does not accomplish much in compn with the value of thorough organization and irequent local meetings, supplemented by the powerful agency of standard newspapers. ison ALL citizens will observe the request for a meeting at the mayor’s office at 3 ». m. today to take action in the cholern gituation. It is of utmost importance that a representative gathering of citi- vens bo present to advise with the Board of Health at this cris] T'H1S 18 no time to stand on legal tech- nicalities. If the council does its duty it will appropriate a sum suflicisnt to clean the city thoroughly, and the peo- ple will back the members in that act, which is something the peonle are not ready to do very often. Tie magnificont and worthy dedica tion of the great tin plate factory at LElwood, Ind., on Thursday will serve to illustrato the fact that only a few months ago democratic newspapers were saying that “*no tin plate has been made or will be made in America.” THE incorporation and thorough or ganization of the Western Art associa tion in this city was a most worthy act In the love for art and appreciation of works of art Omaha has an enviable rep- utation and it is a great satisfuction to learn that this city is leading the west- ern cities 1n this matter. Tne Reading railway claims that its business has been unprofitable, but that does not explain why it should attempt to make up its losses by raising tho price of conl. The real resson is that it virtually has a monopoly on coal, and by defying the law it will make up its losses most ensily on coal. M. QUAY 15 no saint, but the attempt of demoeratic papers to tind his “fine Italinn hand” in every loeal polit- ieal complication in Pennsylvania is as silly as the ciy “It was the James brothors” heard often twenty years ago when three robberies occured on the same night in places hundreds of miles apart. THe proposal to incorporate thoWost- ern Art association of Omaha is wise. The plan suggested for securing a fund to continue tho art school ana purchase works of avt as the nucleus of a collec- tion in this city appears foasible, The character of the gentlemen intrusted with carrying this project into effect gives assurance of its success, PORATION'S nerve is colossal. the Pullman Car compan which has fought payment of its taxe in Towa for seven years and has at last been compelled to pay after great cost to the state. Now it comes up and promises to pay promptly in the future if tho back taxes for seven yearsare remitted. The poverty stricken condi- tion of the company is probably its justifleation, Tur crop bulletins issued from the weather bureaus of several western states are of an encouraging character for the greater part, though in sorce localities corn is not sufficiently ad- vanced to insure its safoty from frost Fora woek past the tomperature has been soveral degrees below the uverage in the greater portion of the corn belt, but no killing frosts have been reported It is now estimated that the corn crop in this state will fall 15 per cent below thatof last year., As lust yeur’s crop wus vory lurge this fulling off is less than has been generally oxpected and the fa: mers are well satisfied with the outlook. Fair prices are now promised and the new crop, with the addition of a portion of last year’s yield that is still in the hands of the farmers, will bring 8 largo amount of money into Nebraska { *he gov this fall THE A DISAPPOINTING PARTY. In his speech at the opening of the republican Omaha wocek, Governor McKinloy#aia that one thing about the party is that when it does got into powoer it is disappointmont, and to honest and well menning democrats a humilinting disap- pointment. The eampaign of 1800, said not, was a pile of woes which were to_follow the doings of the Fufty- first congress, anl notably the tar law. The democracy woa the pre diction of these woes, by alarming the people and pledging the party 1o tear upe root and branch all this ovil legis- Intion. Fverobody is familiar with what the party has undertaksn to do by way of carr put this pledgo When the house of reprosentatives of the prosent congross assembled the great caumpnign in st democratic democratic majority in that body was | bound by promises made on the stump and in the party platforms to do certain things, [t had told the intry that the MeKinloy tariff law was an outsage; that tho rates noeded thorough revision and luction all along the line; that the currency of the country was insufficient in volume; that bounties on sugar-grow- ing were unconstitutional and should be instantly repealed; that ocean mail piy was a steal: that the aspartments of the government were honeycombed with coreuption and vecking with frand; that tho Fifty-fiest congress had been most reckloss and extravagant in expsndi- ture, and that the duty of thu new con- gress was to move at onee nnd with all its power against all theso abuses and wrongs, This great democratic major- ity claimed in soason and out that the people had given it that mission. What is the record? Thoe soie effort of thoe great democratic majority in the presont house to lessen the burdens of taxation they told the peoplo they were unnecossarily bewring was dircsted to u change 1 not more than haif a dozen itoms out of the 3,590 embraced in the tariff law. The great body of the law was not attacked atall. Is it not en- tirely fair to say that either the charges mado against the McKinley bill were false or the house signally failed in its duty to the people? This majority went to work with the assurance to the coun- try that it would cut down the exponses of the government $100,000,000 or more. It proposed to show that its chargo against the “billion dollar” congres was woll founde 1 and that its denunc ation of republican extravagance was Just. But here again it failed, for it made avpropriations oxceoding by over $140.000,000 those of the first session of the preceding congress, among other things passing a river and harbor bill which earried larger expenditure than any other moasurs of the kind in the history of the govermant. Tho rec- ord of the houss of rep-eientatives of the present coagress, extending over a period of more than eight months, with an overwhelming democratic majority, does not show a singlo promise of the democratic party redeemed or any effort made to redeem one, with the sole ex ception of the pledge to give the coun- try free and unlimited coinage of silver. What is true of the presont demo- cratic house of represontativesis equally true of every other democratic house sincé 1875, Allof them huve disuppointment, and the explanation is found in the fact that the democra 3 a party well-defir heen a has no settled convictions and d poliey rezarding any pub- which is at this time an issuo before the people. Tt is divided on the tariff, on tho currency, on the re- monetization of silver, and it is united on nothing but the purpose to kesp one section of the country sylid for the de- mocracy by depriving the colored citi- zens of their right to a free and unre- stricted ballot. lie question IN THE PIVOTAL STATE Last week Mr. Cleveland made a brief visit to New York city, in re- sponse to tha summons of Mr. Whitney and other party managers. Oa his de- parture he stated that he hal basn suc- cessful in the object he hadin view. Immediately aftor the departure of tho candidate Tammany hall held a meet- ing and adopted resolutions pledging that organization to labor earnestly for democratic success. On that oceasion Mr. Bourke Cockran, who made the memorable specch in the Chicago con vention opposing the nomination, deliv- ered an address in support of the demo- cratie candidates, The object of Mr. Cleveland in his hurried visit to New York from his Massachusetts resovt is thus made plain. It was to reconcile Pammany and the “‘anti-snappers,” and it would seem that this was accom- plished. Such a reconciliation means the sur- render of Mr. Cleveland and his friends. It signifies that the cindidate.has given apledge to Tammany that the patron- age, in the event of his election, shall be controllad so far as New York is con- cerned by that organizition. The sil ation had becomo serious and was grow ing steadily more s0. Senator Hill had not made a sign as to what he intended todo. The men who had fought the battle for Mr. Cleveland’s nomination wore disaffected because they had not recoived the attention which they thought they deserved. There was un- cortuinty regarding the real sentiments and intestions of the Tammany leaders, Whitney and Dickinson found them- selves unable to do anything because they had no authority to muke ple dges that would be binding. Nothing short of the personal assurancoes of Mr. Clove- lund would do, and hence he was brought from Buzzard’s By to meet in secret consultation the men whom he has most haartily hated for yeurs und to muke a with' them that wou'd insure their support. No other rational explanation ¢in be given of the appearance of Mr. Cleveland in New York and the action of Tammany im- mediatoly following. Everybody who knows anything about that political organization knows that it is not in the hubit of giving something for nothing, certainly never twice to the same bene- ficiary. My, Cleveland has been favored once by Tammany and failed to recog- nize his obligation. Tammany does not intend to allow this to oecur again, and therefore, as all the signs clearly indi- cate, it hus exucted from the candidate such pledges with regard to the control of the federal patrounge in New York compact OMAHA DAILY BEI THURSDAY S PTEMBER, 15, ‘ty as will justify it in supporting him. | democeatic party i Golorado has been [n other words, M- C oversh dowing naxioty presid , has surrenderad to Tam- many and accepted the tarms of that zution as the price of its support. Just how much this will improve the smocratic situation it is difficalt to de It is to by oxpacted thut it sy 1o harmonizs the democracy of the IS npire stato, but it also muy have the effect to drive from the support of Me Cleveland a great many independent voters who ecannot approve such n bargain, ns well as those people who ars not willing to sye the fedoral ofices in tho chief city of the union handed over to the control of the most, upulous politieal oeganiza- tion that ever had an existence in this countr, Thera can bs no doubt of the inordinate nmbition of Mr. Cleveland to be again president of the Unitod States, and it is evidont that he is prepared to go to almost any oxtremity in further- ance of his ambition. Such being the case, what beomss of the claim of sturdy honesty which his supporters make in his behalf ?

A comparison of the lifo insurance business in the two countries illustrates this. Of the total sum of $12,000,000,000 of life insurance in force in the world at present the United States has $5,500,000,00). In 1830 Great Britain had five times as much life in- surance in foreo as the United States, tho business in this country having been computatively in its infancy at that time. But in 1890, after thirty years of continuous growth, this country had $1,203,000,000 in force, while Groat Britain had only 33,503,000,000, a portion of which had bsen uaderwritten by American companies. Between 1880 and 1890 the amount of life insurance issued in this country exceaded by $1,500,000,- 000 that of Great Britain, including Canada. The explanation of this is to be found in the greator activity and encrgy of tho insurance meu of this country and tho botter ability of Amorican citizens to bear the expense of insur Por- haps the latter ciuse is the chief one. In Great Britain the proportion of peo- ple who can afford to pay for insurance is much smaller than in this country. In Great Britain the very rich and the very poor prodominate. The former care little for life insurance and the lat- ter cannot afford it. In America the majority are in moderate circumstances and ean bear the expense of life insur ance in a modost way. It is with this class that the underwriters do the bulk of their business. Considering that lifo insurance had its origin in Eagland and was carried on in that country long bo- fore it was introduced into Amoarica, it swhat significant that it now flourishes so much mora extensively here than in the country of its birth. The causo of the difference is explained by the facts above stated. is som A DESPERATE INDICTMEN T, Having proven to its own satisfaction that the cholera was divectly causad by the protective policy of tha republican party the Chicago IHerald nov apolies wtself to the task of proving tht protec- tion isa twin brother to slavery. It must bs fought, according to that paper, as slavery was foaght, and it must be ut uprooted and destroyed. “Protectionism,” says the Heprdld, “has baen tried, convieted and condemned. It is incorrigible. It has retreated into the last ditech. Liko a tiger at bay, like slavery at bay, it cannot safely be reasoned with or exhorted. Tt will not, it cannot reform. It cannot be modi- fied. It cannot, it will not restore to anafllicted people the millions that it has stolea or the lives that it has taken, This remarkable indictment of pro- toction, absurd as it may sesm, is pra- sented with the utrost sosriousness. Theargument is simply overwhel ming. We had hoped that the IH:rald would ¢l Lo the cholera charge, which wis certainly dumaging enough, but it has abandoned that altogether and now undertakos to show that protoction is the real twin to slav it must ba crushed as slavery was cru shed. We still bolieve that it was a great mistake in our wild-oyed Chicag o con- temporary to abandon the chotera ar gument. It is too lat e now to prove that protection caused slavery, but it would be impossible to find a more favorable time for the charge that it caused the cholera scourge. What the fres ti ers need is an argument that will pre- sent the republican protective policy in the most revolting light possible, and there is nothing wovse than the cholera. To ba entirely serious, what does the intelligent reader think of the casoe which the advocates of free trade are making out against the protection of American industries? In its who'e his tory the democratic party nover has been reduced to such desperato straits hefor Mg. D. H. WHEELER wants to get back into the city council and is work- ing day and night to g nendorsement at the hands of Fourvh ward republicans. Wheeler was shelved two years ago use he had forfeited the confidence and support of his constituents, He had his placa in the council an uuxiliary to his business and allied him- self with the old Tammany Twenty- eightars whose moembership was chiefly made up of boodlemen and wurd heolers. While he was posing #s the “watch dog of the trensury” he never serupled to help tax-eaters and contractors. Mr. Wheoler is competent but not Lrust- worthy. Wae do not why the re- publicans of the Fourth ward should again foist Mr. Wheeler upon ourcity government. 800 Tug demoeratic conyention at Pueblo, Colo., wus 80 demoralized by the seating of a large number of Weaver delegates that all of the Cleveland men bolted, leaving the people’s party in control of the fleld.

Wira everybody agreed as to the nes cessity of putting the ecity in a thor- oughly clean condition the question of securing the money necessary to do thi which it is estimated will not exceed £10,000, ought not to present an insur- mountable difficuity. In the meantime the authorities should firmly and im- partially exercise the authority given them to compel all persons to put their promises in a satisfactory sanitary con- dition and keep them su, and if this be done it will go far to solve the problem. A fow arrests and fines of property own- ‘ors und householders who neglect their duty in this matter would be very likely to have a salutary effect. OF ALL the heavy eares and burdens resting upon the president of the United States the greatest is occasioned by the serious illness of Mvs, Harrison, whoso condition at last accounts was pro- nounced very critical. The president is constantly at her bedside, and though he looks after such matters ns urgently require his official attention, he is giv- ing his thought and care almost wholly to his wife. Tho sympathy of the Amer- ican people will go out to thesinking patient, to the troubled president and to ail the members of his houschold in this time of anxiety and apprehension. Wirar iospived idiot prompted the democratic party’s attempt in their platform to revive all the miseries of state bank money and wildcat currency republican ingenuity has failed to re- veal and democratic shrewdness is ashamed to confess.

While the latest diaguosis would, to a large degree at loast, dispose of the theory that Mrs. Harrison may ve suffering with caucer of the stomach, her most intimate friends fear that somo othor disease of equal quality has fastened itself upon her.

He can take the and figures, do his own figurivg and his own conclusions, “for the way is s 1 that a wayfaring man, though a demo- crat, may not err therain.’ The beet sugar factory that the Oxnard company built at Grand (sland was originally planned to be built in Califoraia, but boforo the plans were executed the officors of the company were approached by men from this state who urged thom to locate here, and as 24 inducement they informea thom that the state bounty would positively bo retainod. Tne Oxnard people being favorably im- pressod with the state and the inducoment of the bounty concluded to canyass the situ- ation. Taey were met on every hand with with the assurance that the bounty would be retuined, leading citizens all over the state assuring them that such was the sentiment of tha people, even the state oficials pledging .thomselves that tho bounty would not be repealed, and so the mpany finally concluded to chungo th location from Califormia to * Nebraska, where sugar was 11§ conts to 15 conts lower thau it was in California, aud what was the result?! After thoy had luid down over 1,000,000 in Nevrasks the next legislature ignored the people’s pledgos and ropudiated their contract under the protense of pro- tecting tho people from a mouopoly, while the fact is that the Oxnard compuny is dis- tiuctively an anti-monopoly company, being the only company in the United Statés that does pot pelong to tho sugar trust. 1 am advised by Mr. d.G. Hawmilton, sccrotary of the Oxnard company, that his company provosed building ten factories in this state, if tho bounty had not been re- pealed, but that they positively can- not and will wot, buld unother factory unless the bounty is rostored. The restorntion of the bounty then means ten sugar factories for this state, it means tho 1nvestment of % cool §,000,000 to build them; it means the cultivation of 50,000 acres of boots; it means an influx in popu- lation into this state of at loast 25,000 people to do tho work; it means that o farm that now oulv supports ono family will support ton families; 1L means thut the farmer, 1n- stead of raising corn that will only roturn him to$16 per acro, can raiso beets that will cturn bim $10 1 $50 por acre, and in- stead of paying the freight on his corn to reach tho oastorn markets and then paying freight buck axain on bis sugar, he can pro- duco bis sugar right here st home, and if there is any freight to bo paid “lot Lhe other fellow pay the freight.” It also means an incroase 1n farm valuss of from 5) to 200 po cunt wherever a factory is located ; it mouns employment for tuousands of dependent women and children who cannot earn as much at soything olse; in_ short, it means spending $1 to make 810; it means Nobraska to the front!

The repub- licans have been wonderfully successful in showing the farmers that fusion was only intended by the democrats to use their co- operators, the farmers, to pull the chestnuts out of the fire; that the farmers were to vote oftices for’ democrats und that roally none of the agricultural interosts were to bo elevated.
