The great mass of voters will discriminate more than ever between clean, capable men and tattooed candidates who haveno character. A TEXAS8 preacher has denounced the Christian Bndeavor society as un Christian and harmful to the cause of religion. It would be intoresting to ob- tain that wild ranger’s idea of religion and Christiunity. THERE is no logic nov connection in the speeches of the populist candidates ju this state. They cite a wholo string of abuses, having no connection one with another nor with any party and charge them all to republican legis- lation. STANHOPE, the IHerald correspondent, is still consuming microbes with ease and audacity, but is becoming alarmed because of a threatened epidemio of typhus fever.

Hero are the Board of Public Works and the county commissioners | eilly Tiotding their sessions two days gad of time. No one is so base as to ate that Saturday’s convention proximity of election have any ang to do with iv. No ciTy in the state is making moro rapid progre;s than South Omaha, and |the confidence ci-he™people in the fu- vv,uro of that bustling towrm was never grzater than now. There is substantial ground for the feeling, since the Magic Civy is backed by a great industry that is sure to stoadily grow as the territory which contributes to it deyelops. —_— IF YOU employ a doctor you expect to swallow his medicine and follow his ai- rections about your diet. If you hire a lawyer you will heed his counsel and let him conduct your case in tho court. If the tepublicans want Tue BEE to help elect their candidates they should heed its advice and nominate wen whom an honest paper can commend without stul- tifying itself. FRroM almost every city in the coun- try come reports of preparations for the celebration of Columbus day, October 21, Aro the schools of Omaha getting ready for that event, which is but three weeks distant? Wae must not show a lack of patriotism on this occasion, which promises to be one of the memorable ©elobrations in the country’s history. There is still time to prepare if no more be lost. WiILL Saturday’s coavention do its duty? That is a question which is in- teresting thousands of votors in- this county who want to vote for republican - candidates, but will not sacrifice the in- terests of this city and covaty by send- fog boodlemen and irresponsible - shystors to the legislature. Give the - wepublicans of Douglas county clean and " able candidates for the legislature and eounty offices and they will be elected. — IN SELECTING candidates for the leg- . fslature the delegates to the Douglas eounty couvention should not make thelr selections by wards. It is immaterial in what part of the city any member lives so long us he is available. In con- flning se'ections to the respective wards and ratifying the choice of 4 majority of ward delegations the convention really puts it within the power of five delegates 10 uame n member of the legislature. ~ This practice almost invariably results in inferior tickets. Another suggestion Tuk Bex ventures to make is the selec- Ly tion of several represontative working- men for the legislature. A ticket made up of lawyers and tradespeople will not - draw from the class that has most of tho votes to deliver in November. DEFAMERS OF NERRASKA. The capital of the populist party in Nobraska consists largely of defamntion of the state. The candidate of that party for governor, who has received his | highest political honors at the hands of this people, is making his campaign upon statements which if recoived credence by rest of the country would repel from Nebraska both capital and population. Not a word for the magnificent material growth of the state during the past twenty yeirs, No exprossion of gratifieation for an almost unprocedented agricultural development within a period of less than half the life of a generation. Not an in | commendation of the progress in every- thing thet conduces to the intellectual | and moral advancement of the people. | No word of praise for practical achieve- | ment in every |)irnv||m\ which hardly any other state in the union can boast of having attained in an oqual period and which none has surpassed On tho contrary, columns of ealamity lamentation, It is proclaimed to the country that the ors of Nebrasku hopelessly burdened by mortgage indebtedness; that thoir crops do not repay them the cost of production; that they are suffering from a scarcity of money; that they are the v of railroad oporess’on and the extortion of the and that prosperity is on the decline instead of advancing. Such in outline is the picture which the popu- list leader in Nebraska draws of tho condition of tho peoplo of this state, one of tho greatest in its agricultural capa bilities among the sisterhood of states, whose fertilo acres yield annually erops of greater value than the product of all the silver mmes of the United States, and which still offsrs opportunities for the industrious and thrifty nowhere ex- cetled. Tgnosing the great hody of facts which show the geieral progress and vrdsperity of this people, the populist candidate for governor cndeavors to justify his defamation of Nebraska and its people by citing exceptional m- ples of failure ors, and it is by in such with | the utterance are ims usurer, or distress among no means certain that ha does not some have recourse to exaggeration. pretends that all tho farmers in Ne braska are prosporous. There are men onguged in agriculture in this state as inc stato who are indolent, thrift- impractical, and such men could not prosper under any circum- stances. 1T the supply of currency wore five times what the populists nsk for this class of farmers would still be in debt and still be str. behind the army of progress. Nothing that tho government or any other powe do would koep these poople out of tho slough to which their of every quality necessary to success has doomed them. But taking the people of Nebraska as a whola they are us prosperous as those of any other agricultural state in the union, and enjoy as many of the com- forts and advantages of life. They have been favored for the last two years with good crops, upon which they have rve- alized a fair margin of profit, and not onty have they been enabled to cancel a large amount of indebtedness, but they are materially richer by veason of the increased value of their | There are very few farms in N ska that would not sell today for more than they would have brought a y , and but for the ealamity cry tha kept up by self-secking politicians for the past two years they would be worth still more, because there would be a greater demand for them. The offect of di paraging and discroditing Nebraska be- fore the country, has thus been a posi- tive pecuni 10 every farm owner in the state. It is inconceivable that theintelligent and patriotic people of Nebraska—those who tako pride in what has been achieved and have faith ir the destiny of the state—can fail to resent the un- waurranted and injurious misrepresentas tions of the populist leaders, They must under stand. that the success of the candidates of the rew party would be | regarded by the country us a vindica- | tion of - their disparaging statements, and hardly anything couid happen that would have worse conséjuences for Ne- uska than this, It would be a warn- ing to capital to keep away from this state and an admonition to everybody <ing homes in the west to look for them elsewhere if they would be pros- perous and hapy cases mes Nobody ory loss and see ATHE 10WA Advices from Lowa present a fl\vumhln outlook for the republicans, They will undoubtedly regain most, if not all, of the congressional districts lost two yeurs ago and thero is not & question as to the election of the republican presi- dential electors. The delegation from Towu in the present house of representa- tives consiats of six republicans and five democrats, and there is good reason to expect that in the Fifty-third congress the number of democrats from that state will not exceed three, and it is quite possible that the republicans may make u gain of four, The republican canvass, while not characterized by much noise or excitement, is being vigorously pushed and effective work is being done. The democrats are also at worlk, but they are not exhibiting the earnestness and enthusinsm which distinguished the stato campuign of last year. Governor Boies is making appeals on the calamity plea, but this is not so influential as for- merly, because the people as# whole are prosperous and there is the testi- mony of the governor himself, given only u few months ago, that such is the case. In his message to the last legis- Iature he said: Never in the history of Iowa have her peo- ple boon blessed with more general prosper- ity than they now enjoy. * * * With in- creasea prices for the products of our farms has come @ substantisl advance in the mar- ket valuo of the agricultural lands of our state. A marked impetus has been given to the upbuildivg of our cities and towns, An ora of vrosperity has come to our manufac- turing and wining lodustries, * * = Wherever we turn in every branch of indus- try, trade or profession in which our people are engaged are to be seen unmistakable evi- dences of the gencral prosperity with which we are blessed . It is too soon after this utterance, made not for political effect but asa truthful statement of the conditions then prevailing, to renuw the calamity | ence with intelligent | ation secoms to be ory. even {f in the meantime the farmers of Towa had not bewn again favored with good crops, and expect it to have influ- prople. But the democrats have no other capital. The populist party does not appoar to | bo receiving any consideration as a f tor in the contest, The republican situ- entirely satisfactory and alarge majority for the national ticket is confidently predicted. THE CITY HALL INVESTIGATION, The investigation into the deals and jobs that aro said to have been perpetrated by councilimen, con= tractors and the architect in the erec- tion of the city hall building bids fair to become a disgracaful farce. The con- troversy that led to the sham investiga- tion arose at first through tha letter in which Mayor Bemis called the attention of the council to glaring defects in the building, the neglect of certain con- tractors to live up to the conditions of their contracts and incidentally to the Inck of diligence in the supervision over the work on the pwrt of the architact This letter provoked Architect Bein- dorlTinto a counter communication to the council which was decidedly insult- ing to the mayor. It not only called in question the veracity of Mayor Bemis but also impugned his motives, Now, if this had been purely a personal quarrel between Bemis and Beindorft the taxpayers of Omaha would regard it with indifforence. But when George P, Bemis in the discharge of his sworn duty cails the attention of tho council to what he believes to be detrimental to tho taxpayers and damaging to the city’s interests, the controversy becomes a matter of public concern. The wayor may be misinformed as regards the charges of collusion between council- men and contractors; he m il to prove that the architect distanced his competitors by agreeing to divide a por- tion of his fees between his partner and certain members of the and it may be untruoe that the building has not been constructed in good and workmanlike manner according to the specifications. But the motives of Mayor Bemis eannot be impugned. Tt is a common saying that where there is much smoke there must be somo five. The smoke ahout the city hail building was very thick hefors the fiest stone was laid in the foundation and it has been growing in density as the building ap- nroached completion. It is the duty of the council to clear the skirts of suech membo have been smirched by connection with the letting of the contracts and construction of the building. It is the duty of the commit- tee to ertain whether the building is defective, and if so whether the fault is with the architect or with the con- tractors; whether the defects are the re- sult of incompetency, negligence in su- pervision or collusion. The taxpayers of Omaha had a right to expect that this inquiry would be con- dueted foarlessly and impartially until every vital point was probed to the bot- tom. Any other course would only lead to the inference that the charges con- cerning city hall construction are true. The action of the committee in ab- ruptly refusing to continue its inquiry unless the muyor disclose the names of all his informants is, to say the least, a blunder. The mayor may have the ve. best of reasons for withholding these names, All that should be asked of him is to produce the evidence and point out to the council the defects in plans or in the workmanship on the building. [f the mayor decline to furnish any proofs the committee can proceed through ex- pert builders to ascertain whether the avchitect’s plans are Jdefective or whether the contractors have been cheating. No other course will satisfy our citizens. council, CONDITIONS CONTRASTED, The American commissioners of im- migration who have been investigating the causes of the unusual tide of for- eigners flowing to this country of late have found that the large Jewish immi- gratior from Russia is due to persocu- tion and the system of espionage which ails in that country, a fact which is v generally understood already: but the general cuuse which holds good in all purts of urope is stated as follows: The superior conditions of living in the United States, nigher wages, fewer hours of lnbor and the exemption from the exactions imposed by foreign gov- ernments upon their citizens, such as military duty, burdensomne taxes, and regulations involving freedom of move- ment and personal liberty, and the gen- oral belief that the United Stutes pre- sents better opportunities for rising to a higher level than are furnished at home.” This is doubtless a correct statement of the case and is worthy of particular attention at this time, when effotrs are being put forth by political demagogues to convince the laboring classes of this country shat their downtrodden condi- tion cries aloud for the remedy which free trade offers. The investigation of the commissioners in regard to the antici pated immigration of tin plate workers from Wales brought out some facts of prosent interest. Commissioner Cross, who gave considerable attention to this subject, was informed by the represen- tatives of the manufacturers that the tin plate workers of Wales would give the United States the hardest fight she ever bad in the field of manufacture and trade. Thoy told him that the men would voluntarily work for reduced wages to make the fight against this country successful, their interests being where their homes are. But the com- missioner states that if the present de- moralization in the Wales tin plate in- dustry continues, thousands of makers will come to the United States seeking employment. These official statements are at varis ance with the repeated declarations of the free traders of our own country, who say that the idea of establishing'a tin plate industry here in competition with Waules is an absurdity, The Welshmen themsolves evidently perceive, not only that serious inroads upon their trade have already been made by the Ameri- can manufacturers, but that they have a very unpromising future before them. Not only are many of their men now thrown out of employment, but those who still remain at work will have to make common cause with their employ - crooked | ors by accepting reduced wagos in order to avoid boing « ,A]mllnd to lenve home in search of wor! This state of things does not hold ogt much hops to the wage earners of ‘Walas, and, no doubt, they will grow woary of sacrificing thomselves upon the altar of free trade long before the young tin plate industry of this country ! Has been crushed out by such a miserabfe'systom of competition. Workingmen must have something bet- tor to hope for {f they are to preserve their manhood at all, The problom nvolved in the immigra- tion of skilled labor from Kurope, if in- deod it presents a problom at ail, will have to be left to the future for solution. No doubt if several thousand tin workers should come here now thoy would be unable to find employment, but if the development of this industry in the United States proves to be like that of other industries here that have grown to vast proportions from small beginnings, it will not be long be the law of supply and demand will ad- just tho matter. For the pres the subject is chiefly intoresting for the il- lustration which it affords of the bene- fits aceruing to this country from pro- tection to homo industries. ATH TO VICTORY, The success of the republican ticket in this county will depend upon the elass of men nominated by its convention hoth for tho legislature and county offices. Tho nomination of any weak man wenkens the whole ticket. Tt is to the interesy of every candidate that hisasso- ciatos on tho ticket from top to hottom shall be men of unimpeachable character and recognized capneity. Lvery non- entity and every black sheep put upon the ticket drags down the good men on tho ticket. This cannot be too strongly impressed upon the convention. Another fact is that this paper can exert no influence in favor of honest and capable candidates if in the same breath it recommends mon who are notoriously dishonest, disroputable or incompetent. The paper that perverts the truth about men and measures for partisan ends wields noinfluence with thinking veople. On the contrar, nt , Its support is u positive injury to tho cause it esnouses. Its praise does not inspire confidence and its censure carries with it no weight. The only safe course for the party is to enlist popular support not meraly by the principles it advocates, but by the merit of the men it seeks to place in office, It 1HAS been demonstrated by tl numerous joint debatesin Nebrasia dur ing this campaign’that mere volubility though it may bowilder the minds of those who are incapable of thinking, docs not mect the requirements of those who are seeking intelligently for the truth. Some yery *“‘talky” men are now on the sturipfor the democrats and the independents, but their talk does not isfy people of discernment for the rea- son that it lacks logical consistency and practical common souse, without which it becomes mere wordy harangue and convinces nobod, The repubnlicans are having the debates all their own way so far as argument is concerned and are presenting facts and conclusions to the people in sud a manneras to carry con- viction. The plain truth is that the bave the teuth on thewr side and have only to present it in plain terms without subterfuge or evasion, while their opponents are forced toemploy the arts of the sophist and the demagogue. It is mistake to suppose that the intelligence of the masses, though theoy may not themselves be skilied in con- troversy, is not keen enough to detoct and discard what is false and accent what they know to be true. When thoe results of these debates are made known at the pollsit will be scen that the popu- lar judgment has not been swept from its moorings of practical common sense. THERE are many people in Oma and elsewhere in the west who have per- sonal friends in tho cholera-stricken city of Hamburg. To such the appeal in behalf of relief for the suffering there will come home with peculiar force, and no doubt the request for contributions that has been published in this paper will result in placing a large sum of money in the hands of the gentleman who has been nuthorized to veceive it in this city. But the contributions for this worthy cause should not be confined to those who arve influenced by the ties of birth or kindred. An awful calamity has overtaken the people of Hamburg and their distress must appeal to thoe charitable impulses of their fellowmen of all nationalities. Tho contributions need not bo large enough to make any individual giver the poover, but they should be numerous enough to aggre gate a handsowme sum. Mayor BeyMis ought to be able to ‘*‘nail down” some of those rumors and turn them into positive facts, Before and After.

Kor five years tho (rish peopio have beon the vietims of prac- tically an irremovable English constabulary and judiciary, from whosn acts there was no apoeal, although thoy wero often manitostly partial, arbitrary and in contempt of justico And its ordinary forms in civilizod countries, Now, by Mr. Morley’s edict of revocation, the Irish have the samo rights and the same protection under the law as those enjoyed by their British neighbors. When tho liberals triumphed in tho recent elections 1t was commonly believed that almost the first thing done by the parliamentary majority would be the repeal of the unjust, offensive aud frequently cruel coercion act, but it was not expsoted that its operation would bo susponded, as it Las beon, prior to 1ts repeal. That its revooation was good politics cannot be doubted, in view of the peacaful condition of Ireland during the last two years, and of the other fact that it was necessary the new government should do somothing of a decisive oharacter favor- ablo to Iraland 1n ordor to bind and hold the Irish memvers, ospecially thoso of the Par- nellite faction, to it. on tho tories' own journals concede that Lord Salisbury’s gov ernment blundered when it passed the coercion act, and that it mado a serious mis- take when it neglected to repeal the law af it became manifest that 1t had survived tho little, if any, excuse it once had for its impo. sition upon the peopio of Ireland, Ttalian politics are ut present exceptionally m ting to peopleoutsideof Italy, and this for a good many roasons., Attention has been callad to the report that the influenco of the vatican is likely to bo thrown with tho ro- publican party in Italy. That party is already considerable, and 1t is very certain to grow rapiily while the present conaition of Italy continues, There 1s no question about the misery and the discontent of tno Italian people, and there are conditions that inevita- bly operate against the existing government in the public mind, even whon thera is no roason why they should do so. But in the se of Ttaly there is a veason. Itis the bur- deu of taxation that Ttaly, and this is a divect consequenes of the poli King Humbert and his advisers.

If she maintained an army ana a fleot as large as could be kept up without imposing an oxcessive burden upon her poopie, and no laager, nobody would venture lightly to assail hor or drive her into the opposing camp. And this is doubtless the course she would pursue if her govorument were pop- ular and republican and the chiof magistrato nad no interest apart from that of the people. The fickleness ot the German emperor's moods in mattors concerning the Bismarcks is one ot the most curious features of court life just now. One day the emperor blows hot and shows symptoms of desiring a recon- ciliation; the next day he blows cold and polnts a fresh snub at Friedricusruho. The secret of this changoableness is supposed to be tne division amoung the neror's ad- mivers, as well as the emperor” that he may seem too anxious. The courts of Sax- ony, Buvaria, Baden and Woimar, bosides maty membors of the high Prussi tocracy, undoubtedly favor a roconc Count Caprivi, whom Bismarck continues to ridicule aud denounce, is against @ reconcil- iation on the ground that the gov- ornment would be lowered before tho peoplo Ly the cmperor's confessing Iriendship with its bitterest antagonist. The emparor is ia- clined, independently of all advisers, to favor an outward reconciliation, at least, to save himself from popular reproach for ingrati- tude. At the same time he will not tuke the tirststep. Embarrassed by considerations of dignity and by 8 multitude of advisers, noboay can guess what ho may do next. One thing, however, is certain; Bismarck will never bo invited to return to power. Tho reconciliation would bo only for spectacular or sentimental reasons, and every court in (Germany, as well as most of the aristocracy, agree with Chancellor Caprivi that it might better never take place than boa precursor of Prince Bismarck’s return to pow oppressas send The latest correspondonce from Caleutta that has reactiod London shows that the pub- lic anxiety over the dopression of tho rupee poning constantly, ospecinlly sinco the ion of the roport that the British government will give no hint of its inten tions until after the internatiounal silver con 1 Memoriais from all classes of pub- lic officers, who aro intolerably pimched by the practical reduction in their salarios, con- tinue to pour in.
