A SOUTHERN journal says that ‘‘the west no longer invites settlers as in former years,” and that ‘‘the most tempting field is in the south.” This is an encouraging view for the south to take, but it is not supported by the Tacts. THE interest of Mr. Cleveland in the New York senatorship suggests the idea ‘that he intends to run the country and malke its laws for the next four years to suit himsolf. If he carries out his plan it will bo a great disippointment to Tammany.

ORGANIZING THE LEGISLATURE, The contest over the organization of the legislature which is to convene at noon tomorrow is actively in progress at the state capital. Neither republicans, populists or democrats are in position | to organize either of the two houses without combining with mambers of one of the two opposing pwties. The demo- orats aro miking a desperats effort to organize both houses against the repub- licans, With this end in view they have made overturss to the | independents for combining their forces and holding them together until the Unitea States sevator shall be chosen. Such a combination, if “tod, would fully justify the ch that | the populists were nothing but cats- paws to pull democratic chestnuts out | of the fira. During the campaign the they Had any greater adinity to the to tho repablicans. They were equally bitter in deaouncing both m- ocruts than of the old parties, aithough most of their campaigners 'took great pains to pour ail their shot and shell into the ro- publican party. The excuse for this floreo worfare upon the republi- | can party that the populists | wero ayed against the party in | vower and uot ngainst the party out of | power. Now that the democratic party it about to resums nitional control the tables are turned. No honest populist will contend that the thied party can Gt by coalition with the pa‘ty in The populists have not as much loveland in pr power. o hopy for from Grover U the direction of their pacu ine issuzs than they have from the republi- cins. They certainly havo much less to hop» for from tha dem ts in tho legislature when it comes to the enactment of iaws for wh | the populists are contending. The democrals will agreo to deliver the solid support to the candidates upon | whom the popul can for speaker and clerks of the two houses, They ave willing to give them the lion share of or even all legislative patron- re from postmisters and sergeants. arms down to pages and spittoon clean- ers. But they never will vote with tho populists when it comes to o maximum rate bill, the anti-free-pass bill or any | other 1adical vestriction of railvond cor povations. They are w.lling of courss to trade off all the smail ofiices for the United States ship just s an yer will trado off his pawns and minor pieces for the queen. On tbe other hund the _ plotting, scheming and trafiicking on the part of republicans to capture the lower house is not in the interest of the party or of good government. Up to the presant it is being engineered in the interest of the combinution between the raiiroad lobby and the jobbers and contractors’ lobby. Whatadvantage will the republi- cans gain for their party in organi agree ing the legislature if it can oniy | be necomplished by cor deals and pledges to assist corporations in Jefeating legisiation thut the people want and that the party has pledged itself to enact? The puirty that elects the oflicersof the legislature will become responsible for its work. Unless tho ropublicans can elect anupright and unpurchasable man as spanker by the unbought votes of independents who dosive to redeem their own pledges wo the people that elected thewn the party will be doomed to disaster in the next campaign. It is safe to say that the keynote to | the election of a republican senator lies in this divection. 1f tho republicans show a disposition to resort only to hororable means in the organization of the legislature and in the senatiorial contest they stand a fair chance of elect- ing a senator by the help of independ- ents. If they ave simply bent on carry- ing out the old policy of jubbery and robbery which has been so disastrous heretofore they do -not deserve success and they ought.to fuil. THE PACIFIC ISLANDS Foglish emissiries are endeavoring to | cronte a feeling in the Huwaiinn islands against the United States. The to ereafe opposition to closer cou relations with this conntry, espec where the exclusive nseof e as a naval station figures as a iden s | consider- ation to be granted tothe United States. But this is not the only ground upon which the indictment of Great Britain rests. Notice has lately been taken in Washington of newspaper articles and other evidence showing that strong cfforts are being made to divert the Huwaiian trade from San Irancisco. The attacks upon the United States are believed to have their orvigin in the desire of Great Britain to exclude this country entirvely feom theislands. Much is made of the idea that this country has designs upon the Hawaiian istands, and as evidence the fact is pointed out that this government has declined to join England and France in a treaty by which each binds itself not to take pos- seasion of the islands, Another point used in the secrot cam- paign of the agents of the Fnglish gov- ernment is the indelinite design of the item of $250,000, which did no¢ appear in the naval estimates, but was a part of the last sundey eivil appropriation for and that is enough. The feoble old king who presides over these islands prefers American protection, hut a8 it is not the policy of our government to seck new territory he iadisappointed. Great Britain hias established a protes tory over his domiin and he i3 thereby shut out from all the ndvantages which ho and his people might gain through American 1nfluenc How much longer will the Unitad States allow Great Britain to go on in her work of gathering in the islands of the Pacific? Has she not territory enough already? HOLD UP YOUR RIGHT HAND. Every metboer of the legislature and | every state official will ba required to hold up his right hand and take the fol- lowing oath of office prescribed by the | constitution: 1 do solemnly swear that [ wi constivution of the United St constitution of the state of Nebr 11 support t and the and ska will faithfully discharge the duties of the oftice T hold according to the best of my ability. and that at the election at which 1 was chosen to fill said office T properly influenced in any way any elector, and have not accept have not im the vote of | will 1 aceept or receive, directly or indirectly any money or other valuable thing from any corporation, company or person, nor any promise of office for any official actor influence (for any hold on any bill, How many members of the legislature can conscieatiously say that they have ken this solemn oath without mental veservation and with the honest inten- tion to earry it out in spiritas well as in letter? vote I may give or with Lution or appropriation) AMENDING THE PATENT LAW. It is announced that the commissioner of patents is going to work, when con- gress ronssembles, to urge the passage of some one of tho bills which have been reported by the houss and sonate committees on patents. He is not con- fident of success, buv to have passed the bill introduced by Senator Platt of Connecticut, extending to trade marks used in inter: merce tie provisions of tate com- xisting law regarding trade marks used in foreign countries. The courts overturned the law as it applied so far had no constitution thority to enact such legislation. tor Platt and the commissioner of pat- ents believe, however, that congr power to regulate trade-marks used in interstate commerce and that this will ally accomplish all that is ne in a trade-mark law, as few articles of importance mado for consumption within state lim A more claborate bill than that of Senator Piatt has been reported to the house, but there is swmall probability that any astion will bo taken on it. It is understood that the commissioner of patents will recommend to the houso committee that a provision be insertod in its general patent bill for settiing rress interference cases in the courts without reawrring the commission- or to pass upon them at all. This is & reform which the commissioner has long favored, because nearly ail inter- forence cuses ave appealed from that officer to the courts, and he regards the oxamination of them by ths commis- sioner as a neodless duplication of labor. He has no power to compel witnesses to proceed properly and his docisions are of less foree as precedents than formal adjudications by the courts The patent laws undoubtedly need ro- vision or amendment, but in order to do thisas proposod in the house bill would probably require more discussion than there will be time for during the present congress. There oughtto beno difficulty, however, in passing the simple measure introduced by Senator Platt. It is in- toresting to note in this connection that the inventive genius of the | American people seems to grow with progress of the country.

It is said that should it be cap- tured the independence of Hawaii would be at an end. Itis urged that if the station is ceded to the United States it will become territory where the queen’s writ will ba powerless, whore conspirators and defaulters can find wer of the highest court in the te, which as a county officer he can- ~ mou afford to do.

In tho northern part of the state the yield was twenty-five bushels, in the central twenty-eight and in tho southern twenty-seven, the average for the state being twenty-six bushels per acre. The total product amounts to 137,540,285 bushels, or S0,441,775 bushels | less than the crop of 1891, Owing to the inferior quality of the corn the price | has averaged 85 cents per bushel, which | | isless than the price obtained during the two previous years.

A large and cultured audience greeted Bishop Newman at the First Methodist church yesterday morning. The subject of his masterly discourse was *“he Great Con- vorsion." Tt related to the wonderful con- version of Saul of Tarsus The eloquent speaker gave a very enter- ul's early life and edy ing up the persecution of The strong admivable wth in elo Paul's bitter hatred of the Christians and his fic e deter minatic ta extinguish the last of the followers of Jesus Chivist were all dwelt upon by the speaker. The march of the persecutor to Damascus was wrought into 8 magnificent A paint- taining review of ¥ 1 1o his ta the Chistians, traits of his an sharactor wore sot e W fng. The bishop's familiarity with the land- scape along the way made it an easy watter for him to call up many interesting seones in succession aud picture to his auditors the impressions that were probably experienced by Sanl of Tarsus as he hastene ancient city of Damascus toward the to slaughter the last of the Christians, r ul's e rkable conversion the bis Woomany aluable lessons, He held that true conversion did ot make man unna it simply threw him in hae mouy with nature. Jesus Christ was the most natral man that ever live A sinful wiar was like a planct thrown out of its orbit, a shooti tar i fact. The centrifugal force had gained the mastery and away ho went through space with danger and de struction ahead, Christianity would lay hold of this shooting star, t teamp of the universe and return him to his orbit where he might o > and sorenity The speaker b cre was mo such thing us total depravity for the human race, People might be totally depr d but never totally depraved, Christ would nev have come to this world {o save & race totally do- praved. The § i some streaks of goods was such a thing patriot, the kind parent and the h ness man were examples of natural good- ness convers! o Christianity simply developed these virtues and made man a hetter patriot, a kinder hushand and father and a better and wore upright busi ness man. - Wiaen a preacher invited his hearers to nature and - become Christians At he was mak- ing a mistake, Naure was holy, and the closer one got to it the more he would love the things of God and the more he would bs like Christ “Some people think you must take a man build him all over again,” said the v order to convert him to christianity. That is a mistake, In rvestor- ing the rulns of ancient cities 1o theiv fore mer beauty and perfection every stone and arch that is found standing is preserved in its natural position and the work of restora tion takes these fow remaining bits of the ruins as a | s the reconstruction, Just 50 in the work of o human nature into the likeness of « wtural, God st busi n handon tho bishop thow to given features must remain as a s lo work of restoration. The man who has been given to good natured laughter all his life will, after his conversion, laush on and will probably shout for Joy, while the brother of mild mond may sit seren through the hours of worship never openini hi but enjoying the feast of God just the same or even to a greater degree than his noisy brothe In closing the bishop dre markably vivid picture of the final hou the o cution of Piul at Rome.
