THE prophecy of Pope Leo that a war cloud will soon gather in Buropu is per- foctly safe. War always has ten chances where peace has one in the lottory of European politic: I7 18 not alone in Omaha that juries require discipline. A Chicago jury re- contly failed to bring in a proper ver- dict because the judge refused to order liquor and cigars for their entertain- ment. THE increase in the capital stock of qhe South Omaha Stock Yards company 10 #6,000,000 indicates the expansion of alocal concern that is certain to become in a few years the gieatest of its kind in the world. I1 18 ovideny that Adlai 1. Stevenson does not know that the campaign is onded. e is still making speeches about the ‘‘force bill,” which was dropped long ago by every other demo- crat in the country. THE latest news from 1imin Pasha is that he is still alive, despite the report that he was dead. Imin has been dead and alive so many times that he ought tobe able to answor some interesting theological questions REDUCED cost of production always cuts down the price of a commodity. | For example, in 1885 aiuminum was worth $90 a pound, but it can now be had for 70 cents u pound, and is being put to practical use in many ways. This, of course, is an extreme case, but it illus- trates the principle, It 158 said that Colonel North, the “nitrate king,” has so much wmoney that he does not know what to do with it, and that ho thinks of investing in min- ing 1nterests in this country, As coal mining is now sounprofitable, according 10 the testimony of those who control it, perhaps he had better invest in Ameri- can coal mines and relieve the poor coal barons from impending ruin. THE United States fish commission has for several days been distributing small fry from thiscity to various points in the state for stocking the public waters, which encourages the hope that the labors of the state fish commission will soon begiu to show practical re- sults. Perhaps the time is not far dis: tant when Omaha’s supply of finny deli- cacies will not be entirely imported from Chicago. TaE Liberator Building society scan- aal in England is almost equal to tho Panama scandal in France. In some re- spects it is even worse, for the millions of dollars stolen in Kugland robbed the poor of their savings aud did not great- ly affect tho rich, while the great Panama deal involved both rich and poor. It begins to look as if public trust and public robbery were closely allied in Francoand England. THE Mexican government, it is said, proposes to make an effort to secure emigrants from Europe, in the event of this country suspending immigra- tion. Moxico can offer some induce- ments to immigrants, but very likely she would have an experiencs similar to that of Canada in the business of pro- moting immigration. Most of the peo- ple who accepted the opportunity to go Mexico would eventually find their way into the United States. It 18 customary to invite all of the functionaries of the royal household to o full-dress dinner on the occasion of the queen’s birthday, and although the late Lord Tennyson was regularly in- vited for forty-two years hoe never at- tended. He was comfortablo in the loose and ill-fitting garments which he habitually wore, but would doubtless have been very miserable in a dress suit, He was ubout as far from being a dandy as our own Joaquin Miller HON, PAUL SCHMINKE, whose death is chronicled from Nebraska City, was one of the best known and respected Germun-Americans in this state. He was highly esteemed among all classes: of citizeus, and at various times oc pled positions of honor and trust with marked ability and commendable fidel- ity. He had been repeatedly elected to the state senate, and was at the time of his death mayor of Nebeaska City, to the growth of which town he had con- tributed very largely by his enterprise and public spirit.

This quality is of more importance than his profe any political creed. If the legislature mal a half of the hattle for good government will be won at the outset. ion of BY MONOPOLIES. One of tho largest and fattest monopo; lies in the country is the elovator ring at Buffalo, which has a profit out of about all the grain that goos to New York froin the west. This ring is now greatly disturbed over the prospect that a ship eanal will be built to connect the great lakes with the sen so that grain and all other products s west can be sent through Lc without breaking bulk. L. other powerful monopolies it hus newspaper organ, and the, Buffalo Couricy seems. just now to ba overtaxing its strength in its efforts to prove that the ship canal project is not feasible, The most absurd of all the argumonts put forth by the journai named is the grave and solemn ion that i much as grain in transit isliable to heat and spoil it is necessary that it should be aired by being hoisted into the clo- vators whose interests it so zealonsly represents. This idea has struck Tur Bt as supremely ridiculous, but it has also the authority of one of the most ¢ perienced grain dealers of Omaha for s ing that grain would go to the s p much more safely without than with the service of the elevators, as it would be less liable to injury if kept in bulk in 0PPOSED tide water e many s 4l the holds of good vessels than if it wore | taken out at Buffalo or anywhere else. This would be the case in warm weathor especially, as ship’s cargo i3 below the water line and is therefore kept ata cool and even temperature. It has beon demonstrated that grain shipped down the Mississippi in b 5 much less frequently damaged than tha t shipped by rail. It does not need to go thro anolevator and whether orn is transTipped into cavs or canal boats at Buffalo it is only subjected to which would be avoided if it we through to the seu without being dis- turbed, As to the argument that the proposed ship canal would by expenusive, thit is entively without force when it is romem- bered that it would save an enormous sum of money that is now wasted, some of it in elevator charges at DBuffulo. What the peoplo want is cheaper trans- portation, and they are willing to pay for ity that is to say, thoy are willing to put their money where they know that it will bring them good returas in due time. Tt is to be expacted that the ele- vator ring, the Vanderbilt roads and evory other intorest that would suffer by the carrying out of this project will fight 1t Dbitterly, but that should only make ‘' its success the more certiin. amplo wate the Atlantic is nanded, and it is grat- ifying to note that all the great and r section of the country which it would directly affoct is rapidly becoming awak- ened to its importance. we: An POSTAL TELEGRAPHY, Postmaster Genera! Wanamaker sub- mits another convincing argument in his anoual report in favor of a postal telegraph system, but there is vory small probability will make any impression upon the prosent congress. What the sentiment of the Fifcy-third congress may be on this subject it is useless Lo suriniss, but if the party coming into power March 4 next carrios out its promise to regard the wishes of the people it will give the country postal telegraphy. It is not to be doubted that the great majority of the people desire it. The postmuster general is entively correct when he s that™the govern- ment will never properly do the postal work committed to it until it connects eleotricity with the service, and theve- fore he advocatas the utilization of both the telegraph and the telephone. characterizes as an antiquated anomaly the existing method for all postal com- munication, when o wire and a telegraph instrument for the neoded quick mes: sages might connecy the major part of the postoffices. A large part of tho mails must always be trausmitted as at legislation thoy | oil- | | room gang will be of the utmost impor ird and block | and | Noman should bo placed | all | much | good start | ippod from the | a as- | vay to | unfortunately | that it | Ho | presont, *‘but thero is another consides nble part that secks quicker transit that ‘ does not find convenient the 10,000 rail- rond telegraph offlces, often distant [ from villages, that doos not find tho | telegraph tariff within the roach of | working people.” The plan of the post- | master general does not contem- | plate the ownership of telegraph lines | by the government, nor an increase of foderal offices or officors. It does not re- quire any outlay of eapital by the gov- orninent. It simply proposes that the government shall make a contra soma telegraph company to connect postoflices by telograph or telephone, commencing with the most important | ufices dnd proceeding gradually in the der of probable usefulness. Tho tele- | graph company would perform the sorvice with its own operators for a fixed sum per message, which sum the postoffico department would charge the publie, adding a sml chargo for livery. The advantages of such a system h been so ofton presented that the public | ought to be catively familisr with them, Postal teiegranhy contemplates a very much cheape ico for all who should | desire to uso this means of communics tion, and better vice. It would reducoe the average cost of telograpbing by at least | it would insure the promptest possible delivery. It would enable a very much er number of people to use the tele- graph than now do so. It would benefit to all classes of the population. I'his is not a mere conjecture. It finds authority in the experienco of England and other Buropean countries whero postul telegraphy prevails. Especially in England is tho testimony most conclu- sive as to the advantages and general benefits of the system. Its effect has boen to vastly increass correspondence among the people, and it has bocomo a sourco of revenue to tho government. There is no reason why the postal telegraph systom cannot be made equally successful here, and with this practical consideration aisposed of there romains no objection 1o the s is worthy of serious attention. ought to be a very earnost exprassion of public ovinion on this subject,which has very closo relation to the interests and 1 welfare of the whole people de- o very much s CONTINENTAL FREE TRADE, According to Mr. Lrastus Wiman, whoso testimony 1n the matter is wor- thy of considerate attention, Canada is ready for continental free trade. scouts the idea of annexation as being unattainible within a quarter of a cen- tury, even if then, and only to be brought about by revolution or consti- tutional means, neither of which conditions he thinks can hap- pen. Contineutal freo trade, how- ever, he regards as at an early possinility, without sori- | ously interfering with existing pro- tected interests, and he looiks upon such policy as containing the greatest ad- antages for both the Dominion and the United States. As to FEugland he be lieves she would consent tv continental free trade because of the vantages that flow to her from the de- velopment of the United States com- pared with the meagro results that have fellowed the arrested development in | her own possessions on the sams conti- man has for y been a pe nd most intelligent advocats of but it is by no meuns ap- he has succeeded in con- considerable number of in Canada that it is need for the progress and dovelopment of that country. the preceding nor the present govera- ment of the Dominion has given any in- timation of a desire to make any | very great departure from the pres- ent economic, policy of the coun Tho platform upon which Sir John | MacDonald made his Inst campaign did not contemplate any such thing and the parent that vincing any the ruling clas what they be a l | repaicold onosndd they havo beon liberal U with | | that the building interest, [in a fMourishing condition. | the development of the sta one-half and | om that | There | He | | sion it will be volume of busingss has boon proportion ntely groat, Zfflmlnnl and early har- vests gave the ' fitemars the moeans and the tims to buffd.pew outbuildings and patrons of the Tibor dealors this year, Collections hia¥e been remarkably good and purchasersof lumber have in alarge number of cases ffhid cash and taken ad- vantage of the dlscount, As a rule the country deala"ake in good shape finan- cinlly and are not compelled to ask for | extensiéns. Relerence is made to the charge that the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley railroad is discriminat- ing againgt Omuba and in favor of St. Paul on lumber rates and it is stated that the local dealers are ignoring that roud altogetier, The showin de for the lumber trade in this city is upon the whole remarkably good, and this has a special significance as indicating particularly in the small towns and rucal districts, 18 The bost and growth of upon which is chiefly dependent is found in the fact that the re constantly and rapidly add- ing to the number of their buildings and that they are able to pay for the lumber required for that purpose. 1y o8t vroof of the prospe gricultural inte T future of Speaker Crigp depends lnrgely upon whethor an extra session of congress is held or not. If Mr. Cleveland refuses to call an extrn ses- inferred that heis op- vosed to Crisp, und that an orgamzed opposition to him will be formed before the next regular session. He will almost certainly be elected if an extra session is called. This, at least, is the state of the easo uccording to a demo- cratic congressman who is supposed to know what be is talking about. 1t will hardly bo creditable to Mr. Cleveland to refuse to call an extra session for no better roason than that of his supposed personal animosity toward one man, and we are not quite | ared to believe that he would go so far as this to defeat the present speaker SECRETARY FOST hold out the assu and business intor continues to wnce to the financiy sts of the country that there is no reason for alarm as to the condition of the treasury. The outflow of gola during three woeks has reduced the government supply only $4,000,000, and the secretary does not anticipate a continuance of vold exports at the recent rate.

The controlling classes aro the manufacturers, the railroad cor- porations, and the capitalists, and eo far as appears these are practically a unit in favor of muintaining the exist- ing aconomic poticy, moditied only as to its beaving upon natural products. The American neople would not be s isfied with a trale arrangement that | went no further than Canada nas thus far shown a willingness to go, It is not alone the manufacturing industries of the United States that are concerned in the question of freer trado with the Do- | minion.

Tue St. Louis Lumberman, one of the leading journals devoted to the lumber business, has an article concerning trade in that line in Omaha which shows that the lumber dealers of this city have | done a prosperous business during the past year.
