Section 15, article 5, entitled “Kxeou- tive Department,” of the constitution of Nebraska, provides thatevery bill passed by the legisiature before it becomes a law, and every order, resolution or vote to which the concurrence of both houses may be noc ¢y [excapton questions of adjournment] shall be presented to the governor, If he approve, he shall sign and theroupon it shall bacome a law; but if he do not approve he shali return it with his objactions to the house in which it shail have originated, which house shall enter the objections at large upon 1ts journal and phoceed to recon- sider the bill, I apon reconsideration three-fifths of elected to both houses vote bill becomes the menbe in favor of its passage the o law, In conferring the veto power upon the s of our constitu- the precedent es- governor the feam tion simply follow tablished the federal constitution, which confers upon the chiaf e 1tive of the nition power to vato any bill massed by congress. The object of vest ing this power in the chief exocutive is to interpo unconsti- tutional, hasty and reckless logislation. It is the sworn duty of every president and y wovernor to exercise the sonscientiously and foarlessly instance where he believ mensura to bs an infraction of tho constitution, or whonover in his judg- ment any measuve is decwad to be in- jurions to the public welfare. In the recent debates batween General, Van Wyek and Judge Crounse, Van Wyck publicly volunteered the pledge that he would approve any bill that the legislature might see fit to pass. While this pledge evidently made with reference to railrond regulntion it was nothing more nor less than a bold bid for votes by i promise to ignore and nullify by L bacrier against of ev veto pow in evory any has wi the plain mandate of the constitution. General Van Wyek was educated asa law- ver. He knows cnough law to know that it would hahis sworn duty if elected rovernor to interpose his the legislature should bill puss which he believed to be unconstitutional any or inequitable. The constitution em- powers the legislature Lo establish rea- Wble maximum freight rates, but it would be the sworn duty of any governor to veto any maximum rate bill which upon examination he should find to be unreasonat In striking contrast with noral Van Wyek was the answer of Judge Crounse asked whether hoswould sign any itroad bill the logislature might seo He declarved that if elected up to his oath of office. He would earefully examine every bill first and if it was feamed in conformity with the constitution and its provisions were just and reasonable it would have his approval—an | not otherwise. No man who considers his oath of ofice binding, and desires to main- tain the ehecks which the constitution has placed in the way of hasty or ill- i ed legislation can do ovherwise. ai Van Wyek’s promise that ho dallow the logislature to go un- ed if he were eclected governor sto what extremos he 1s resorting to popular clamor. fit he would live o enact in order to cat SOUTHERN DEMOURATIC INTOLERANCE. The statement of Mrs. Lease, the Kan- sus populist lender, regarding the treat- ment of General Weaver and herself by southiern democratic mobs is undoubt- edly a wholly truthful version of the cowardly outrag Tho attempt to palliate these manifestations of intoler- wice by cluiming that the mobs were composed of young men and boys is Qisposed of by Mrs. Lease, who says that in many instances prominent men were leaders in tho disturbances; in some cases organized party clubs. It is per- fectly obvious from what Mrs. Lease suys, and all the circumstances sustain her, that the indignities shown the populist candidate for prosident were not the result of a spontaneous outbreank of the spirit of mischief, a5 the demo- cratic apologists for tho outrage claim, ro deliborately pre-arranged, the s selected and the program car- ried out nccording to form, It is alto- gether absurd to suppose that boys would engage unprompted in disturb- ances of this character, and it is en- tir fair to assume that such non- voters ns were engaged in the outrages wero not only inspired by the demo- cratie politicians, but werve assured im- munity fron punishment for any conse- quences that might vesult. Mrs. Leaso very properly thinks that these outrages ought to be resented, and she says that if a vote for Weaver will be in effect a vote for Cleveland it is the duty of populists in thse north and west to vote for the republican cand. dates, [t ought to be plain to every telligent man in the populist party that a vote for Weaver 1 have no other effect than to aid in electing the demo. tic candidato, Thera is no possi- ility of the election of the populist cun- didate, but the choico of W tors in the normally republican might throw the clection of pr into the house of represontatives and thus insure the choice of My, Cleveland. This is why Me. Speinger advised the democrats of Kinsas to vote for the pop- ulist electors and Governor Boyd gave similar counsel to the democrats ot Ne- bras! Rormer republicans who have iden- tified themselves with the new party should seriously ask thomselves whether they are proparod to assist in making Mpr. Clevelund president in view of the fact that the dominant element of the democricy-—the elemoant which con- trolled the national convention and would control the national administra stites ident tion—is still us inteasely sectional in foeling, and as intolerant in spirit asit has ever been. No democratic leader or organ has uttered a word in reprobation of the outrageous treat: ment of General Weiver in the south. Is such & manifestation of bitter sun hostility to ba allowad to pass ed while mon of the north and west play catspiw to the party guilty of it? 13 intoierance of this kind to be meekly forgiven by the people who presecved tne union in order that free institutions should not perish from the earth?

SHOULD BE CAREFULLY CONSIDERED. In the compact between the city of Omuha and the Union Pacific raiiroad the reprosentatives of the city should not loso sight of the moat vital point in negotiations. The conditions under which Omaha donated full $1,000,- 000 worth of real estate and bonds to the Union Puacific railway twenty years ago obligated that company nol only to maintain principal machine shops at Omaha, but also to continue perpetually to transfor its freight and pissenger business on the grounds donated to it The company kept faith with Omahn as ards the machine shops, but it did not comply with its obligations regarding the passenger and freight transfor. The barrier against the real union depot in Omaha has been the Union Pacific bridge. Through the influence of the late Suiney Dillon the devot at Dillonville ‘bocame the real transfer ground and Omaha was made n way station. The marvelous growth of Omaha despite all these drawhacks and the building up of the stock yards and packing industry at South Omaha forced the Rock Island and Milwaukeo roads to scek entrance at any cost into this city to enable them to compete with the Burlitgton. Their advent in Omaha under a special contract with the Union Pacific was almost simultancous with the new contract between Omuha and the Union Depot company and the Union Pacific by which vitality was given to the original agreement that Omaha was to be made accessible to every rond that connects at this point with the Union Pacilic. Now it is proposed to quit-claim to the Union Pacific all the right and title which Omaha has ever had to its depot grounds, and furthermore to abrogate that part of the contract by which the Union Pacific company bound itself to allow any connecting rvoad to use its bridge and depot facilities at reasonable rates. In other words, by canceling the contract made in 1890 the city re- leases the Union Pacific from any obliga- tion to permit the Towa and Missouri roads converging at Council Blufls to cross its bridge or enter its depot at any pri It allows the road to cancel its contract with the Rock land and Milwaukee on three years’ notice, and 1t may even without canceling the con- tract exactsuch enormous charges for the of the union depot that they would practically be excluded. All these points should be digested and considered before we surrender the last vestige of power by which Omaha may be able to sustain her claims as the real terminus of the Union Pacific, use Tr 18 reported thatv a corporation com- posed in part of eastern capitalists has been formed under the name of the United States Beet Sugar company to establish a large numbor of sugar facto in this state. As the boet sugar industry promises to become very important in Nebraska, which offers the hest advantages for it of any state in the union, there should have been no lack of local enterprise and capital to carry iton. But if the factories ave built as contemplated they will give a great stimulus to beet growing and will largely increase the volume of business in this state. The idea of distributing a number of factories about the state will doubtless produce good results by encouraging the culture of beets in many localities where they are not now produced. The sugar factories do not employ a great number of men and do not run throughout the year, but every new one added will increase the number of wage earners. It begins to look as if Nebraska were destined to become famous as a sugar producing state. THE treasury of the Associated Chari- ties is not so full thav 1t inot accom- modate further contributions, and thoe offerings of the charitable will still ba welcomed. The season isat hand when thecalls for charity will rapidly in- seand it is desirable that none who desorving shall be allowed to go awany empty-handed or without adequate help. Doubtless there ave a great many persons in Omaha who intend to ere are do something through the moadinm of the Associnted Charities for tho relief of their less fortunate fellow be- ings, and all such shouid carry out their commendable intention at once by plac- ing what they propose giving 1 the hands of the society. When want and suffering make their appeal it should meet with prompt response. § 18 like a sensible conclusion that the South Omaha people have reached in regard to the mayoralty. Since the tragic death of Mayor Miller, the president of the council has acted as mayor, and it is proposed that he shall continue to do so until next spring. This will save the trouble and expenso of a special election, and will leave the duties of the office in the hands of a man who is familiar with them, OMAHA is a manuficturing eity, and the world is hastening to recognize the fact., The author of an article on the growth of American cities in the No- vomber Cosmopolitan so deseribes it, and inspiring, indeed, is the sight of that *366” in the column of percentages of population increase in the table ol principal American cities, so far dis tancing all ovthers named GOTHAM society is all agog because Chauncey Depew did not appear at the Columbian banquet.

AL When Grover Was Me New York Commercial. There is no gieam of humor in anything that Grover Cleveland ever wrote. He is dull, stupid and soggy. The only thing that ever seemed to stir him to merriness was the contemplation of some crippled and disease- racked soldier asking his country for a few paltry dollars in the way of a pension. Ob- serve his attempts at witticism 1n vetoing scme of those applications. In vetoing the pension of Audrew J. Wilson, he said: “‘Whatever else may be said of this claim- aat’s achievements during his short military career, it _must be conceded that he has ac- cumulated a great deal of disability.” In the caso of Alfred Denny : *The number of 1nstances in which those of our soldiers who rode horses during the war were injured by being thrown forward on their saddles indicates that those saddles were very dangerous contrivances.’ And this s the case of John W, Ferris: *“The ingenuity developed in the constant and persistent attacks upou the public troas- ury by those claiming pensions, and iu the increase of those already granted, is ex- hibited in bola relief by this attempt to in- clude sore oyes among the rosults of aiar- rheea,” The country made a mistake when it chose a siulking subsuitute-provider to sit in judg- ment on the claims of men who went to tae front. [t will not make the mistake ugain, Ni-brara Pioncer. The wily politicians who have falled to find smooth sailing in either of the old partics are now ap the head of the people’s party in Nobrasia.
