The splendid crops of lust your, which were marketed at an advanced price that ggve a good marg of profit, enabled the western farmers to pay off many miilions of indebted- ness, to make needed improvements and generally to materially better their condition. Tho large crops of the present year, though considerably less in quantity thun thoss of 1891, have had the effect to lower prices, but not to sntirely sweep away profits, the state- ment of the calamity people to the con- trary notwithstanding. T'te farmers of the wost will not get as much money for their products, taken as a whole, 1n 1892 as they did last year, but there is no probability that they will lose on an thing they have produced.

Then would come the neeessity of providing for the redemption of the fiat currency and the »eonle would be given a long and bitte lesson. in the folly of stimulating an artificial prosperity by Hooding the country .with paper promises to pay. Doubtless some would profit by such a plan, but they would not be of tho pro- ducing or luboring clusses, who were compelled to sell their toil and its pro- ducts for a steadily depreciating cur- rency.

POses, west o ob- the the THE MONETARY CONFLRENCE. It has finally been arranged that the ationul monetary conference, lled at the instance of the government of the United States, will mee Srus- els, the capital of Belgium, November The matter of selecting a place ap 5 to have been the subject of consid- erable discussion, though why any one point should have been regarded as os- Ily preferable to another is not quite aprarent. There was porhups a little stronger and better arzument in favor of London than of any other Ruro- pean city in the fact that for the object of the conference it is desirable to exert as much influence as possible upon Brit- ish public opinion, and obviously- this could be best doneif the conference ware held ia the English capitul, which is also the world’s financial capital, but undoubtedly the English people will be given full opportunity to study the de- liberations of the conference. President Harrison said in his letter of acceptance that we may not only hope for but expeet highly beneficinl resuits from this conference, **When the result of the conference is known,” snid the president, **we sball then be uble intelligently to readjust our tinan- cial legislution to any new conditions.” ‘This hoveful view of the president is not shared very largely by financiers, who cannot lose sight of the fact that past conferences with practically the sume objects us the one to meet did not accomplish anything, and although it may be granted that the conditions have somewhat changed, it is not clear ihat they are more favorable w an in- Lernational arrangemont regarding sil ver, Thore have been within the past year o two some encouraging signs of W growth of public opinion in Eagland in fivor of bimetallism, but there is no influential sentiment favorable to silver among tho financiers of Great Britain whose judgment would have a controll- ing weight with the government, and there is certuinly no reason to expect from Mr. Glpdstone any encouragement for a luvger use of silver. As to the coutinental countries of Europe, none of them hus recently shown suy disposi- tion to promowe the cause of silver. Germany is controlled in this matter almost absolutely by the position of gland, and hev leuding financiors are opposed 10 any chunge in her finauciul poliey. France sppears to bo perfectiy satistied with the existing state of things. She i enjoying greater pros- perily than any other Kuropean country DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, and under such circumstances will not be aisposed to try any financial experi- meont. Austrin has for some time been preparing to get on a gold basis and can hardly be expected to do much to ad- vance the cause of silver. The other countries that will participate in the conference--there are seventeen in all -will have very little influence upon the deliberations. From this view of the situation, there- fore, it would seem that little is to be expected from the conference,of a prac- tical character, but whatever the result it cannot be entirely without value, for we shall at least learn from it the cur- rent opinion of the European world on this very important subject, and this should enable us, as the president has 1id, to intelligently readjust our finan- al legislation to any new conditiona, When the conference shall have com- pleted its deliberations we will know definitely whether we can hope for an international agreement vegarding sil- veror must deal with the question of a silver currency independently of Eu- rope. ORGANIZED CHARITY., In every city there are some people who have to be helped during the win- ter season, Some of them are victims of accident and misfortune andothers are in distress on account of thriftlossness and dissolute habits. It is very diffi- cult, if not almost impossible, for people who are disposed to relieve the dis- tressed, feod the hungry and clothe the naked to ascertain who is or is not worthy of their charity. Quite often thoy are imnosed on by vagabonds and professional beggars of both sexos, while the really meritorious poor, from modesty or a lack of physical force, are obliged to suffer and go unaided. It has been the experience of all great cities that the greatest good to the greatest number of worthy poor can only be done by o systematic and organized charity. Iv was to meet this requirement that the Associated Charities of Omaha was recently incorporated by a number of prominent citizens who have interested themselves in organized charity. The plan of the organization iz todo chari- table work under a system that wili in- sure relief to those who are needy and worthy. Itis a well known fact that many who would cheerfully and gladly give for worthy objects are often at a loss to determine whether those seeking aid are deserving of help. 1t is a part of the duty of the Associated Charities to investigate all cases of want and to direct the money contributed into proper channels. The mewbershin of the or- gunization has not come up to the pectations of its projectors and they de- ire atl charitable people in Omaha to come forward und nid in vhe work which they have undertuken. Those wishing to promote the success of this worthy undertaking are requested to send their names and subseriptions to the treasurer, Allred C. Kennedy, in the Board of ‘I'rade building. The board of directors desire to plan the winter’s work at once and it is very important that all who are willing to co-operate should immedi- ately communicate with the treasurer. A DISCOURAGED COMPI 1TOR. The advantage which the republican varty derives from the tariff issue is due in some measure to the fact that Iingland, the chief commercial rival of this country, is profoundly stirred by the prospect of a continuance of the present protective tarviff in® the United States. It is a natural inference, and ouo that will oceur to the mind of every man who gives attenticn to the subjéet, that o policy which gives us an advant- age over our most formidable rival and cuuses complaint on her part must bo higlly advantugeous to us. Tho present attitude of the British press shows that the protective policy of this country is regarded with great apprehension and that the success of the free trade democ- racy in' the approaching election is earnestly hoped for by all whose inter- ests are staked upon the prosperity of the English maaufacturers. The Liver- ool Echo says that **tne Welsh tin plate industry is ruined,” and adds: *“On Suturday soveral additional proprietors connected with the Welsh tin plate trade closed their works in consequence of the depression in the British trade caused by the operation of the hMcKinley tariff act. The mills are stonped at sixty tin plate works in South Wales and it is estimated that upwards of 10,000 workmen are thrown out of em- ployment. A large numbor of operat- ives, with their families, sailed on Sut- urday for the United States, where new mills are now being erected by Welsh proprietors.” This is a very strong argument in bo- half of our protective policy. It is not the purpose of the advocates of protuc- tion to cripple nnd impovevish the in- dustries and wageenrners of England, but if they suffer incidentally from the eaforcoment of that policy on the part of this country, iv cannot be helpad. The same paper quoted above hus this: **Undoubtedly, failing the success at the presidential polling of Mr. Cleveland, who has pledged his party to & revenuo turiff, the future of British manufac- tures and of all the subsidiary industries depending upon them is dark indeed.” Such utterances prove conclusively that England has taken sides with the democracy and that the republican volicy of protecting the interests of Awerican manufactories and wage earners is regarded with great disfuvor by our neignbors across the sea because it gives us an advantage over them in the market. This 1s the hest possible proof of the wisdom of protecting homo industries ae a meaus of promoting our own success in the fierce competition in which we are engaged. Great Britaid has no just cause for complaint against our tariff policy. She has ulways sought to destroy our induse tries. From the earliest days of this re- public to the pesent 1t hus been openly avowed by Euglish statesmen that American manufacturing interests should never be permitted to thrive. This country has been looked upon by Enghshmen as a market and not as a source of competition. It now appears that “the American manufac- turer, encouraged by a protective tariff, is competing so vigorously und effec ively against the manufacturers of Eng- land that the latter are filled with alarm and are taking a lively interest in the OCTORER 4, 1892, offorts of the demooratic party to estab- lish free trade. No'man could ask for better evidence than this of the effect iveness of the present protective policy as o means of prdfiidting the interests upon which the peospority of this couns try largely depenils, .« ——————— WHY THEY, (OME HERE. The emigration from the port of Glas- gow for the eight months ending on Septomber 1 was ‘as follows: For Aus- tralia, 48; for Oanada, 1,056; for the United States, 20,087, Considering that Glasgow is n British port and that Aus- tralia and Canada aro British celonies it is somewhat significant that only one- teath of the emigrants from that place should have sought homes under the British flag, while nine-tenths come to the United States. It is well known that Australin and Canada are desirous of securing immigrants, but they are novertholess setfing their faces toward this country, dnd are Increasing our population by millions every vear. Those who come from Great Britain are but a small fraction of the total number of foreigners who are seeking our shores and making homes for themselves under our flag. To those wholook for the reasons underlying this proference for the United States it will reudily appear that our free institutions and superior advantages for gevting on 1n life are the prime attractions, Foreigners are not ignorant of the fact that the American people are the most prosperous and independent people on searth. Tho knowledge of this cannot be concealed from them, notwithstanding that every effort is made to dissuade British sub- jects from seeling homes in this coun- tey. There is abundant room for them in the various British provinces; but they seem to prefor America and free institutions. Most of all thoy prefera country in which the interests of the poor man are protected and promoted by laws oespecially suited to his needs. A very large proportion of the immi- grants are of the wage earning class, but they aro ambituous to save money and join the producing cluss and in a short time most of them will be land owners. A very large propostion of them will settle in the boundless west and apply themselves to the devolop- ment of its v resources, This is what comes of protecting the interests of our own people. It Increases our population and our producing power and thus contributes steadily to the weelth of the coantry. In the future us in the past this policy will be fruitful of good results and will enforce the admi- ration and emulution of the world. st STOP THAZ NONSENSE, The Board of Ilducation has made an-’ other exhibition of its Juck of good busi- ness sense and law knowledge by mak- ing a formal demand upon the city council for the $21,000” which had been contributed from the school fund toward the erection of the' eity hall building. The roason assigned for this demand is that the rooms which had been set apart for the Board of ‘Ilducation in the city hall building are not exactly w he members and officers of the board would like to get. Now we should- like to know what right the council has to take $21.000 out of the city hall fund and pay it over to the school board. The money which the board contributed four years ago toward the building was expended in the ex- cavation and foundations. The money now réemaining in the city hali funa is the surplus of the procesds from the sale of bonds voted by the people for the erection of the city hall and for no other purpose. That money cannot legully be diverted into the school fund or any other fund. The council has no right to use any of this fund except for tho specific purpose for which it was authorizea by the people. But if the council actually had the right to pay back the money which the school poard had contributed for perpetual quarters in the city building, good business sense would dictate that the request should not be grauted. he quarters assigned to the board may not be as convenient or as palatial as they expected them to be, but they are certiinly a great improvement on the present quarters for which the board is paying rent. They aro in a fireproof building and are accessible by elevator; they provided with large vaults which the board needs for the safekeeping of school house plans and documents, The new public library building will be finished within eighteen months and possibly within a year. When the library is moved from the city hall building the school board will be able 10 occupy the great chamber in which the library will temporarily be located. It is therefore senseless for the board to persist in its demand upon the council and its refusal to accommodate itself to existing conditions. Suppose the members of the board were paying the rent out of their own pockets and they had an offer of free quarters in a fivaproof building that did not quite meet the fancy of some of their subordinates, would they hesitate a mo- ment about moving?/ What right have they to pay rent with the people’s money when they would pgt,he willing to pay it out of their ownipoekets if they were carrying on a private ‘enterpriso? are Loyslty tooNaw York, New York Seibune, Mr. Clavelava has, reluyned to the city for the winter, and I8 welgomo.

For many years Alf Sorenson was the ma- aging editor of Tk OMans Bee, He and Mr. Rosewater hud some trouble and Alf, who was considered one of the mostable news men in the west, weut from Tux Bre to the Herald, then to the Republican, and drifted to Salt Lake, where he was editor of tho Times. But Sorenson was not so angry at Mr. Rosewater that he could not give his old chief justice, and in sumwing up Rose- water ano Van Wyck, he says: “‘Rosewater, who had helped Van Wyck to ascat 1n the United States senate, suon learned the vrue character of the man. Ho found bim to be dishonest politically and un- grateful, but as the principles that woro ad- vocated by Van Wyck were those upon which Tue Omana Bee had been buiit, Mr. Rosewater continued to support him. Mr. Rosewater, we believe to be au honest anti- monovolist. Mr. Van Wyck is not and never has been. e bas been anti-mouopolist for ofico ouly.

General Leeso was acknowledged to be the best attorney general for the peoplo that Nebraska has ever had. Iu the last republi- can couvention that placed bim in nomina- tion, when the railroads of the state endeav- ored to kill him, General Van Wyck was a member of the Otoe county delegation,which voted against his renomination, After the convention the editor of the Pioneer saw General Leese 1 the Capital hotel and asked him to explain why it was that Van Wyck, who pretendea to be an_anti-monopolist, did not vote for his remomination. All thay General Leese could answer was, “Will you answer the question !

Y. Oct 3.—Two paintors, engzaged 1n repairing the cables and guy ropes of the cantilever bridgo across Niagara river yesterday, had swung a slender scaffoid 200 feet above the stream on which to do their work. They were both Canaalans, one from Montreal named Joseph Graves and the other named William Gamet. At last they engaged in a terrific hand-to- baud struggle, in which Graves nearly lost his life. Who started the quarrel noone kunows, but Gamet lost his temper, grabbed 4 hatchet aud threatened to brain his com- panion. Graves grasped his wrist, but Gamot was the stronger, aud pressed him to the edee of the scaffold, threatening to burl him 1nto tho river. ‘o suvo himself from falling Graves loosened his boid on Gamet's wrist and grasped at a rope. Threo quick, sharp blows were rained upon hiin by the onraged assail- ant. Two fell on his back and one split open his scalp back of the left car. He staggored, lost his hold und fell, but was caught be- tween the guy ropes, where he lay out of reach of the oiher. Witn the blood streaming from his cuts, Graves climbed hand ovor hand up the cables 10 tho oridge floor. Gamet followed, hatchet in band. Here other workmen interfered. The wounded man was borne to the Canadian shore, whero surgeons were summoned and dressed his wounds. 1tis doubtful whether ho cau live.
