It was a most lament- able event and the responsibility should be located by the authorities, TuE Chicago Krenng Post presents o picture of Myron W. Reed of Denver with the information that ho has just beea elected to congress. The Post is out of date. Reed was nominated, but declined two months ago and Lafe Pence was nominated in his place and elected. A GREAT sensation was caused in Chi- cago by a report that an alderman had resigned. Chicago nldermen have sui- cided, have been jailed, defeated and assaulled, but the records of the city do not reveal that any of them ever re- signed. Of course, it was soon found to bo a falke. IN ANY compromise that may bo reached between tho city and the Union Depot company the council 1s bound to protect the interests of Omaha. The people will not submit to a surrender of contract provisions which make it pos- sible for other ronds to enter the union depot on reasonable terms. THE grout prairie fives by which the farmers in the ILlkhorn valley lost thousands of tons of hay ana much other property are to be deeply de- plored. It is hard luck for a farmer to lose the profits of o year’s work in this manner, and public sympathy wiil be extended to the untortunate sufferers. The utmost caro should be taken to pre- vent the starting of such dangerous con- flagrations. THE letter of General Pield to Gen- eral Weonver pluinly reveals that the vopulist candidate for vice president sympathized with the democratic party throughout, and it is probable thay when he saw that his election was im- possible ho qaietly populists to vote for Clevelund and Stevenson. That is, of cou'se, only natural, since Field was a general in the confederuts army, AT THE lust session of the legislature of this state o law called the valued policy law was passed.

Hosays: *“The time has arvived wheu the Amorican farmer must couse his efforts to neutral- iz0 the low pro- s going price of his whent by alarger quantity, He from bad to worse, and each eflort to extricate Limself bv that meuans sinks him deeper in the mire of failu I'ho only proper course lies in a reduction of acreaze and production to the de- mand of domestic consumption and a normal requ ient for exportation,” Undoubtedly this plan would produce the desived resuit, but what move profit- ablo use could the farmers put their land to than that of raising wheat? However, it is an exceedingly intorest- ing question that is ve by Sacreta Rusk and should be carelully considered by the wheat producors of the country. ducing sed AN ATIACK ON PENSIONS. It is plain that the democrats are got- ting ready to muke an attaek on pen- sions. Intimations of this purpose are found in the utterances of the party or- gans, which discuss the pension system wessive burden upon tho people and point out that it costs this country more than any nation of Burope pays for maintaining its standing avmy. The Philadelphin Record says: “It is time that the people of the United Sta should seriously consider what may be done to check this frightful drain upon the public purse, which outruns all cal- culations for providing needed revenue and threatens the cvedit of the country. The task of reduction i purely busi- ness uffair, which must be met in a business way by a careful purgation of the peusion lists and amendmentof tho pension laws,” The southern demo- cratic press is insisting that there must bo a ! reduction in the pension account, and, in fact, this demand comes from democrats in every country. The veteraans therefore be ge section of tho of the country may prepared not only for the cessation of all pension legislation, but for changes in thoe pension systam when the democratic purty en- ters upon full control of the government. It will undoubtedly be one of the first nets of that party to reduce tho pension lisis, and when this taslke is begun it is to be cxpocted that it will bo prose- cuted unsparingly. With the southern element of tho democracy dominating legislation the men who preserved the union and their descendants can look for very littlo consideration, Deserv- ing vetorans or the widows and orphans of such will appeal in vain to a demo- cratic congress for recognition, while many worthy persons who ure now re- ceiving the bounty of the government will have their little monthly allow- ance, so necessary to thoir subsis cut off, Grant that theve is some warrant for the demand that the pension lists shall bo purged, the danger in committing this task to the democratic party is that it wili oot boe fairly and justly poer- formed. No platform expressions of ro- gard for the union soldiersand sailors ean wipe out the fact that thero is no wpathy with them on the pirt of the element which controls the democracy and very little in tho party generally. It will not attampt to quite destroy the pension system, but it is very likely to get as closo 1o that it will dare to, and in the cutting down proc2ss it is in- ovitable that many worthy pensioners will suffe The design of the demo- eratic party in this direction is alveady being made known, and it is not to be doubted that within the next two years 1t will Be put into effeet, —_— THE WEST IS INTER sweepi as TED, In an article on the improvement of transportation fucilities on the great lakes the Now York Commercia! Bulletin says: “That climatic conditions in- terpose o bacrier to the realization of the drexmn of a great water- way of intornational commerce throuzh the and the St Lawrence is no reason fo: underestimating the fmportance of what can actually be doue by mouns of imorovement in like trans- portation to bring the great western fields of vogetable, wmineral and animal Inkos | production into closer communication | with tho murkets of the world " Itis no less important to the west than to the east that transportation fa- cilitios on the great wator route should be improved, for the greatest problem of the timo is that of choap marketing of the products the country.

For all time to come the routo will be the cheupest outlet for the products of the west, and thointarest of the western farmer in the improvement of this route will never abate. ean no con na of the value of the water keeping down transportation charges is found in the compotition be- tween the Erie canal and ths vailroads vetween Buffalo and New York., The difference between the pool rates and the tual rates which been eh o by the railways, which is about 81 cents a bushel, is the amount that the canal tho sup An example routes in have has been \ ding to the intendent of publie works, This saving, ho says, has been made upon every bushel of grain that went to New York, whether it went by rail or by water, The amount of grain :d at ths port of Now Yori all the various transportation routes from May 1 to December 1" lnst i time during which thoe canal was open, wis about 110,812,180 bushel by which s thut the saving in freight rates on aceount of canal com- petition was over $4,000,00. The influence of ths lake transporta- tion route in chenpening vates is much important than that of the canal. Without it there would be practically no timit to the rates that would bo im posed upon the shippar by the railroads. ‘Phe west has a deep and permanent in- terest in the improvement ot transporta- tion facilities on the groat Tue New York Erouing Post has an articleon the *Unhallowed Uso of the Press,” in which President Harvison is charged with having bribed the news- vapors of his party by appointing their editors to ofice.

Although theso men have been working about ma- cuinery for yoars, they have been compelled to throw up their hands and acknowledge that they do not know what is the trouble wit tho steam plaut in the basement of the city ball. Yesterday they tackled the large pump, taiing it down and cleaning ail of the part Then they thought they had everything in ship shape, but when tne machine was put together and the steam was turned on tho same troublo existed. In fact, tho largs pump would notlift the two elevators when the steam was turued into the compound pressure chamber, The members of tho special committoe of the council are all at sea over the matter and do ot know which way to turn, though they say that when they report to the ccunoil they will advocato the application of somo radical measure, T'ho elevator man Is almost beside himself witn joy over the turn which affairs have taken, for with the dificulty that exists with the pumps, the elevator question has been lost sight of for the time.
