The friends of education eve: should arouso themselves and prompt action to secure at the W fair a proper and wdequato exhibit of the educational organization and devel- opment of the United States. The expo- sition will not be complete without this and there is 1o time 1o be lost if edusi- tion is going to be given its just show of consideration, A PROMIST G OUPLOCK Tho increa the the Cudahy Packing company from $750,000 to 300,000 means a great doal to South Omaha, where the prineipal plant ol the great company is estab- lished, Muuy hundreds of thousands of dollars have bsen expended by the Cudahy concern in £Huth Omaha, and this large increuss in the capital stock indicates that the end is not yet There is good ground for the belief that the leading men cngawed in the meat busi- ness regard South Omaha as the coming conter of that business in the United Statea The geeat growth of all the packing concerns there auring the pust fow months gives color to thisview, and the fact that the South Omuaha meat companies ure now doing a far groater business thun they did last yoar at this time, while in all other packing centers the business is fulling off, goes 10 show that the meat business in tue Magic City is makiog rapid gmns over that in other pluces Porhaps it is not & matter of much with the e s0 in [ ek pital st of snsequenco whether South Omaha takes sccond o even first rank as a meat packing centor, The magnitude of the business done is of first importance, ana the question supr o is tively insigr it.

In twelvo states tho penalty is the forfeiture of all the interest, and in namely, New York, Arkansas and O:egon, tho pon- alty 15 tho forfeiture of both princ and interest. In live states the contvacy is forfeited, and in ton the intercst above the lexal vate is null and void. In three stat Nebraska, lowa and Now Jorsey, the interest and costs aro forfeited for usury, and in Kansas and New Hampshire respectivoly the for- faiture is double and thrice the excess of interest.

Last winter a number of nignt sehools were opened and met with great th ttendance being greatly in excoss of the anticipations of those who were responsible for the enterpriso. It is now proposed, properly, to limit the attendance to children not under the age of 15 years, All unde: that should be pupils in the day schools, for it is neither neecssnry nor expedient that childeen below that age should be 50 occupied that the Annot take advantage of the opportunities offered by the regulur public schools. There appears to bo u tendency among children who are able and willing to work to neglect the day schools and attend those which are only open in the evening. This may bo due in gome dogree to the wishos of parents and guardians who are uncommonly thrifty, and who believe that children should be made to pay their own way as soon us they are strong enough. The advantages of the night school bLavo been amply demonstrated by e ence, not only in Omaha but in 'y city whero they have boen estab lishea. Thoy ave chiofly useful to thoso who for various reasons have been pro- vented from attenaing the schools in theiv childhood and have grown up in ignorance. Mo this cluss they should be confined, and every effort should bo made to induce adults who need education to attend these schools which are opened to them during the leisure nours of ng. suceess, common GOOD CREDIP IS PROFITABLE. In the weekly report of the local man- agor of I, G.

When the McKinley Vll was boforo cougress the democrats held that it woula immeasurabiy iucroase the revenucs, but after cightoen Moutbs of trisl 1t is found thatit turas in less than expected. Froe sugar and high duties upoa cortain articles which protec: tion has caused to be manufactured in this cou \ bave cat down tho impords of duty paying goods to the minimum, Something of the Resonrecs, To berin with, the domocrats aro pleaged 10 place wool on the freo list aud to materi- ally reduce the duty upon certwin woolen #00ds, which must reduce the revenues v loast $40,000,000 o yoar, Other reductions are expocted ta further reduce tho revenues LY £50,000.000 or $60,000,000 & vear. The gemocratic party will repeal tho sugae ounty, however, and this will save from 4,000,000 to $16,000,000 avnaaily, This will redued the total loss of revony 10 between §36,000,000 and §40,000,000 o year. The aeficit under the brescut laws is ostimated at from §40,000,000 1o § 000,000, stioutd notking be done in tho way « legislation raising or reduveinz tho revenues 1t will oo soen that if the democrais make £00( their promises in repealing the MelKin- loy law they must at the samo time mako pr visions for raising at least £100,000,000 morn revenue annually. It is conceded by demo. crats that thero are aro only two methoas of meeting this contingency. One is by adopt- ing a direct incomo tux, which will" compel everyone who bLas an incowe, from whatever sourco, to pay a certain tax to the governmont. Tuo mintmim in- come which shall pay a tax i ired at any where between £2,000 aud §,000 annuul Tho othor plan is to' adope Kagiana’s airect tax law, which compels all persons payinge m bill or givine a check or draft or order for $10 and upward to use an internul revenue stamp representing 1 per cent of tho transac tion. . Both of these meLnods are 50 unpopu-~ lar that they will mect with n storm of public indiguation when proposed by the predominatiug party 1 cougross, incroasing the Whisky Tax, It has been suggested that the tax of 9) conts per gallon on whisky can be raised to $1 or §1.25, butsince tho distillers control the politics of certuin atates they will riso in 8 vody and forco their representation in courress to muke rebellious opposition. 1t is being intimated by ccntrolling democratic spirits here that somo important pension legislation mav be a resultof the threat- ened shortage in the reveuues. The demo- crats frankly confess that they have not over 12 per cent of the soldiers’ vote and 1n some localities not over § per csnt, and it is their veliet that they can, by making heuvy reductions in the pension pay- mouts, gain more voters than they would lose, by reducing the pension list, as it is held by them that thera is strong opnosition in the republican party to tho present heavy peusion payments. It has been ostimated hat the pension payments for the fiscal yoar ending Juno 30, 1504 will aggrexatothe enor- mous amount of $185,000.000. The democrats say they can codify tho pension laws, that is, repeal all of those on the statutes wnd puss u single and simple one-—-so as to save at least §100,000,000 a oar and not do an injustice Lo any vensioner that would be aceompiished by payiog a pension of$12 a month o Luose who wwere disabied in action or the wiaows of those who lust their lives upon ke field, or of those who were disabled 1 action and have subsequently died.
