But he is no worse than many others who have been in the deal for what they could make out of it. THAT Reform club banguet continues to be.a source of trouble to the demo- crats. BE. Ellery Anderson, the pre: dent of the club, has made an oxplana- tion that does not explaln. IHo says that Speaker Crisp was not invited to spenk because ho does not sharo the sentiments of the elub, and it is also de- slaved by Mr, Anderson that the speech of Mr. T. L Johnson of Ohio does not voice the sentiments of the club. But the fact remains that Mr. Crisp was not ailowed to speak. THE first annual meoting of the Ne- braska Swate League of Local Loan and Building Associations was in every re- spect a success, and the discussion of various topics of interest to the membars will greutly promote the purposes of the organization. The building apd loan associations of this state have done a great denl toward enabling the wage workers to provide themselves with homes, and their intluence in encour- agiog the accumulation of money by people whose incomesare small is o pub- lic us well as a private benefit. It adds to the wealth of the state and stimulates the development of its resources. Ouv- ganization is always a source of power, and the state league seems to bo doing a groat deal for the permanent success of the loan association system. CHICAGO socialists do not take kindly to the recent gift of a million and a half by P. H. Armour for the endowment of & great industrial institute. At a meet- Ing of the new Question club, which is eomposed chiefly of socialistic agitators, Armour was soundly berated us u rob- ber no better than Jesse James. Oue of tho speakers before the elub declared thit Armour steals, lawfully and upona magnificent soale, and hus become n mil- licoaire merchant vrince, but his bene- ~ factions will principally benefit the rich, _&eoslnce the poor cannot avail themselves » of his college. This may in part be true. Bat theroare hundreds of wage workers who desire to improve, to acquire a bigher industrial education, and will avall themselves of the institute and can- not fail to profit by it.

Although repablicanslack four or five vores from having a clear majority in the legislature there is a fair chanoce of electing a republican successor to Sen- ator Paddock. Three differonht ways are open to bring about this result. 1. The republicans can steal half a dozen members of the legislature by trumping up claims for parties that are not elected, just as the democrats are trying to do in Douglas county. 2 They can get hall a dozen veual democrats and independents by the use of boodla and promises of patronage. This boodle and patronage would doubt- less bo cheerfully contributed by aspi- rants for the senatorship and the rail- roads and jobbers who are ahxious to control the legislature in their own in- terest, 3. By prevailing upon populists who were formerly ropublicans to join with ropublicans in organizing the leg- islaturo and electing a senator on con- dition that the republican party will discard disreputable leaders, overthrow bossism and redeem the pledges made by the party to give the people relief from exorbitant railrond rats and an honest and economic ad- ministration of state affairs The first and sccond methods of eap- turing votes to elect a senator is natu- rally fayored by unscrupulous partisans and political highwaymen who engage in polities for what there s in it. Stealing o legislature is a pastimo in light to ongage just s they would in a game of poker or rou- lette, There are others who would not like to have their names connected with a plot to steal the legislature, but, like | the congressman in the ‘“Toxas Steer,” 1 see nothing wrong in any corrupt deal =0 lovg as they can truthfully boast that they paid honestly for every vote they got. The rank and file of the republican party of Nebraska is not in sympathy with any scheme to either steal or buy the senutorship. They beliove in u free ballot and an honest count. They de mand that the will of the pooplo as ex- pressed by majorities shall be respected, let the consequences be what they m: Thoy look upon stesling or buying of a legislature, under whatever pretext, asa | eriminal assault upon the ballot box and | a menace to vepublican institutions. The only legitimate and honorable mears by which a vepublican can and | should be elected senator is by coneili- | ating 1ndependent members who have strayed from tho fold or deserted the | party because they believed the party had gone on its principles and be- | come a power of oppression in the inter- st of corporate monopolies. This class of independents wo feel confident will be found numerois enough in the legis- lature to give the republicans a coutrolling majority whenover they become convinced that by so doing they will be abla to come back to their con- stituents with wholesome legislation for tho benefit«of the producers and with onforced economy in state institutions that will reduce the burdeus of taxpay- ers cenerally. Sucha program would receive the | cordinl endorsement of the great mass | of republic THE The ann TOWA RAILROADS. report of the lowa rail- | giving the returns of the rmlrond companies doing busi- ness in the state for the year ended June 30, 1892, i3 just published. It con- tains interesting information regarding | the capital, indebtedness, encnings und expenditures of #he say thav tho veports of the compu- nies full far short of supplying the information necessary to ensble them to comply with the full requirements of the law. The commissioners state that the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific companies absolutely refused to furnish the data called for by the board, and | hence a complete and correct statement for all the roads in Iowa could not be made, the commissioners presenting the best approximation they could of the data the companies noted refused to furnish. The conduet of the corpora- tions which' thus put themseives in defiance of the law, the provisions of which are explicit and unmistakable, cannot be too strongly condemned. | When men in control of great railroad interests that exist by virtue of public favor and are justly responsible to the public, manifest such a spirit of lawless- ness they set a very dangerous example. The people of Iowa have the right to demand the information which the law requires, and if, as seems to be the case, tho railrond commissioners have not the power to enforce the law the next legislature should clothe them with the necessary authority. Thirty-seven roads reported to the commissioners a mileage of 26.877.19 miles. The total stock issued and out- standing of these corporations amounts to $472,151,200.08, and they paid stock dividends during the year amounting to $11,850,124.67, which was 2.57 per cent on the capital stock. The total indebts edness outstanding of these corporations is $602,459,023.92, The total stock and debt amounts to $1,1534,610,822.95, un in- debtedness per mile of road of $42,200.09. The total cost of construction and equip- ment to June 30, 1892, is reported to be $804,566,620.70, which would leave the capital, in oxcess of cost, $240,043,603.25 on the entire lines, 26,877 miles, an excess of $3,92604 per mile. The report says that this = may be due to a eertain extent to depre- ciation of securities during the construc- tion of the roads und qther causes that cannot now be fully ascertained. The gross enrnings from operation for the year amounted to $161,215,169.50 and the operating expenses to $105,013,- 07 leaving the income from opera- tion $56,215,110.13, From this amolnt there is to be deducted for various ac- counts $41,576,189.81, leaving a net in- come of $19,917,47267. The dividends paid on $472,151,200.03 of stock amounted 1o $11,867,204, 67, The commissioners call attention to the relatively smull number of cars that huve - train brakes and automatic couplers, and say: ‘“'During the traunsi- tion period from the old link and pin couplgs to tue awutomatic coupler, the | for national quarantine there rsilver, which porcentage of accidents, as the reports show, Is largely inoreased. It could hardly be otherwise, and as the cars of overy railroad in the country run over every other rallroad, it em- phaeizes the demand on congress for immediate legislation.” The num- number of employes killed on the rail- ronds in Towa during the year was eighty. fourteen in coupling and un- coupling cars, and the number injured 587, 196 of them in coupling and un- coupling cars. The commissioners ex- press the hope that bafore the final ad- journment of the present congross a law will be passed determining tho time when railways shall be supplied with safety appliance suspending immigration. In the first place it is to bo said that such a policy is not absolutely necessary as a procaus tion against the introduction of cholera, nor is it by any means certain that it would bo effective for that purpose. As was said by Mr. Schwab of New York bofore the joint congressional comunit- tee on immigration, so long as our northern and southern fron- tiors offer a passageway through which the poor ana oppressed of other nations can enter the United States they will continue to come. If this govern- ment should suspend immigration it would bo necessury, in order to make the suspension effective, to establish a win of guard houses along the Cana- n frontier, and this is neither prac- able nor des ble. Canada wants immigrants, and it we attempt to shut them out she will offer them a hearty welcome. There would thus be trans- ferred to Canadian ports an - extensive business, and we would notbe able to keop all of the immigrants going there out of this country. Another consideration that has been urged as an objection to this policy is that of our treaty obligations, and 1t1s not without force. Our government has stipulated with most of the countries of Europe to receivethe subjects of foreign powers who do not belong to the classes excluded by our laws, and there is ght in the suggestion that after having done this it would not comport with the dignity and honorof the United States to adopt a policy of total exclu- sion. Of courso if the proposed legisla- tion shouid be adopted nodiscrimination cun be made as to nationalities. Euro- pean governments might concede the right of this government to put a stop to immigration, but there is no govern- ment in Burope that would not indignantly protest against having its people singled out for exclu- sion from this - country. We should thus be compelled to keep out people whose coming has hitherto been en- couraged—notably the Germans and the Scandinavians—and for whose industry there 18 an unfailing demand. Doubt- less we could get along for o year with- out them, but there is no imperative reason why we should do so. As a practical question the suspension of immigration could not fail to have an effect more or less scriously detri- mental to the foreign commerce of the | country, and this would react upon do- mestic business, There is not the slightest doubt that cholera can be kept out by an eflicient system of national quarantine. The wboard cities of Burope are applying vigorous sanitary m. res for pravent- ing an ourbreak of cholera, and if con- gress will muake adequate provision will be very little danger of a cholera invasion. It certainly does not furnish a justifiable pretext for the proposed radical de- parture from a policy which has the sunction of a century of practice. FAILURE OF THE C ) B, Nobody will be surprised at the ter- mination of the international monetary conference without any practical result, for although it adjourned to reassemble in May, there is very small probability that it will meet again. It was a proper thing for Senator Allison to say before the breaking up of the that its deliberations have useful, bat except as supply- ing additional ovidence of the insuperable difliculties in the way of un international ment regardiag was scarcely required. iv would be very hard to point out in what respect it has helped toward a solution of the problem. 1t has served to make doubly sure the assurance that Buro- peuan countries which areon a gold basis have not the least disposition to change and that there is no serious desire on the part of any of them to extend any help to the United States in its efforts to secure an enlarged use of silver, None of the expedients sug- gested in tho conference would have given this country any relief, ana the general feeling evidently was that we shoula be left tostruggle with the sil- ver problem ulone. It i3 not at all likely that the Clevelund administra- tion will give any countenance to the conference, so that it is quite safe to predict that this lnst effort to bring abont an interua- tion arvangement regarding silver is at an end, and it is altogether correct wo speak of it asa failure. The American delegates should perhaps be credited with having done all they could in the circumstances, but it is now obvious that from the outstart their cause was hopeless, It is already announced that the silver men in congress will at once resume the agitation for free and unlim- ited coinage, but they must roalize that they will do so under greator disud- vantages than heretofore. - The effect of the failure of the zonference upon the market price of silver will be noted with interest. erenco been THE census of Philadelphia just com- pleted places the population of that city at 1,142,653, The recent school census of Chieago, computed at the standard maximum, shows an aggregate of 1,438,000, or over 200,000 in excess of the census figures of 1890.
