Obviously, there- fore, the party that sottlost tion, if it shall devolve upon one party for solution. will have a difficult ana perploxing to perform The agitation of this subject is beine renewed, and a olausible excuss for anxiety regurding it is found in the fact that the immigration for eight months of this v nding with Auzust was L than that of the entiro prece ing year and would have been stiil greater but for thie restriction imposed by the pesident’s order. It is appre- nended that for obvious veusons the number of immigrants will be greatly incronsed noxt year if somo stronger cheel than is providod by existing law be not put to thew coming. Bverybody realizes the impostance of the question nd thero is w protty goneral anprecia- tion of thedifficulties that surround it,but undoubtedly o wise and satisfactory so lution will be found without making any wido ov radieal departure from tho polic which has prevailed from tho founda- tion of the government, and which has been the of growth and development. raco laws to one peoples ns shore is quos- wer wreat source national THE NV At lust States senate, Hon. troduced o ’Q session TESTION. of the John Sherwan in- proposition, which is still pending. to vepeal what is known ns the orman silver act, providing for the purchiase by the government of 4,500,000 ounces of sitvor bullion monthly. Me. Sherman also made a speech in the sen- ate in which, referring to this aet, he said: T can say mysell that there ar possibilitios in the fature iu et t that law which would make me ns anx- ious to repedl ibas T was reluctant to vote forit. * * * In the fiest place it has disappointed our stations in one particular- purchase of largo sums of silver, including the who American product, did not stop the de- cline of silver. That shows, therefore, that the decline does not occeur from here, but that it occurs from causes ubroud.” In alate interview S stated that he was sull in favor of re- pealing the act and should be glnd to forward a movement looking to that end. Ho zaid that the act had for some time been a source of embarreass- ment, and if it continues on the statute books it will prove ns annoying to Me, Clevelund’s administeation as it has proved to President Ilarrison’s, The house stood in the way of the repeal of tho act at the last session and Senator Shep- man thought that would be the dificulty at the coming session, unless the demo- cratic leaders who favor repeal can per suade the majority in the house to agron to the proposition. It wou!d scem that this might bo done in view of the fact that the demoeratic platform denonaces “the republican legislation known as the Shorwn et of 1800 as o cowardly makeshift fraught with possibilities of in tho future, which should muke all of its supporters, as well as its | author, nnxious for its speedy repeal.” | With this utterance of the national con- vention in favo: of the repaul of the sil- ver luw, and such leaders us Carlisle and Hill eoinmitted to it, the demoerats in the house will hardly be able o jus- tify themselves in u refusal to suppo-t o provosition for repeal.

This new ocean mail viee, now only vartially established, 18 being carried on undor contracts with the government which cannot be nulled, though a acmocratic cong could declina to appropriate the money required and thus subject the govern- ment to ucticns for recovery in the court of cluims by the steamship com- panics with which agrecments have been entered into.

Petty purlis: in the Board of Lducation, trivial as it may seem, af- fords proof of the soundness of tho posi- tion long ago taken by THi Beg in be- half of a nonpartisan board, composed of men who have a deep interest in the welfare of our public schools. There anpears to ho no good excuso for the deluy in maici provision for the relicl of the schools from the over- crowded conditios that has for some time been a source of annoyance and n just cause of compinint. It was prom- ised months ago that the Central school would soon 1y for uso and that the overcrowdad condition of the High school would be relieved. Tt now ap- poars that nothing is being done in that direction and that there is no immedi- ate prospect of uny action. No explanation of the causes which have ocensioned tho delay in tho work upon school buildings will bo satisfac- tory to the people. Allof the parties to the various disputes nnd squabbles by which progress has been hindered have exeuses of their own by which somebody else is shown to be to blame: but the fuet remains that such personal matters have no place in the deliberations of school board and the average citizen is not concerned in them. What the peo- plo want is action, intelligent, unselfish wnd encrgotic action in beha!f of the highest public 1nter There ought to be un end of personal disputes and petty polities in the Board of Education. sts. ANoTHER wesk of the ragular winter packing season ut South Omaha has sur- passed the record of the corresponding week lust year, while all of the other pueki conters have had a decided falling oft. Thero is every prospect that the business of the local houses will continue to increaso throughout the season and that a long stride toward second place will be taken du ing the coming year. 1t is significant that while this increase is going on here thero is large decrease overywhere else.

At least the lizures representing these personages have disappeared from the city hall and the minds of the councilmen arve now trunquil. No doubt they are pie- turesque and interesting in their way, but they are not representative of the ty or the state. TALK about Smith, Jones or Brown domniation, the Taylors run things in Ohio.

The more the democrats and_independents in some of the countics iu the southern part of tho state try to expluu the peculiar cir- cumstances pointing Lo the allezed promises aud pleages made between thom prior to election, the more conclusively do they establish the faot that such a tie-up actually existed. It now dovelops that tnere was such @ deal in York county, but it was upset at the fast minute. C. L. Meissner, ono of the democratic nominees for the house, has made o statement for tae purpose of rely iug the public mind of the imprassion that Mr. Price, one of the inaependent nomiuces, publiciv offered the support of the inde- vendent members of the legislature for Mr. Dryan for United S-ates sonator provided the democratic legislativo ticket in that county would be withdrawn. Mr. Meissner suys that while Mr. Price did not mako that statement personally in public, tho offer was made ata private meeting at which both of the gentlemen named were presont. The proposition counts for nothing in tnat case, for the democratic tickel was ot withdrawn and the republican nominees, Messrs, IKeckley aud Johnson, were elected, dut 1t simply goes 1o show that such a deal was_attempted by the aemocrats and inde- pendeuts in some of the counties of the stato, und lends color Lo the assertion that it was successful in certain localities ana that there are independent menibers of the legislature elect who are pledged to vote for a democrat and will uot support an independent for the senate, ady as good us fore counts it has set his tho senato, votes to do Judge Shields says that the senatorial out- come will devend, on tho parsouanel of the candiaates and the personal feeiing of the members of the independent party, who were formorly republicuns and democrats, toward tho partics that thoy left. *I think thal the democrats, or some of themn at loast, feel very friendly toward Paddock, for he wasn't so very wuch opposed Lo them on the tariff and on somo other watters, and I believe that he wouid be more salisfactory to our party than uny other republican could ba, He' voted agaiust the McKinley bill, or a part of it, aud be is not rezarded as o very stoep pro- tectionist.” Aad now comes auother legislative con- test, disputing the right of ¥'red Newberry of Hamiiton county to the seat to which ho seams 10 be entitled by one plurality on the faco of the returns.
