THE Chicago Board of Education has knocked out a boodling contract given to a school furniture trust, and this affords ground for the belief that the said trust was guilty of gross negligence and foolish over confidence. That board of education snould have been looked after. It 18 admitted by Goldwin Smith that “the Canadian Pacific railrond has, by its political attitude and conduct, made itself especially obnoxious to Ameri- cana.” This isa frank admission and its truth is so well known in Canada that there should bo no objection to the proposed retaliation. THE failure of the Leeds Land and Improvement company at Sioux City with linbilities of $500,000 indicates that & reckless spirit of speculation still pre- vails in some quarters, notwithstanding the general tendency toward conserv- ‘atism. The time for forced booms in real estate has passed. ALONG with the wreck of William Tell’s arrow and George Washington's hatchet goes the great desert of Sa- hara, which has been shown by recent explorations to be watered by rains and productive of luxurient grasses. One by one the idols are being shattered and the old beliefs swept awuy. GOVERNOR MCKINI has appointed three delegutes to represent Ohio in vhe ship canal convention at Washington on January 12, This indicatas that Ohio does not propose Lo bo u pussive witness of the effort that is being made ‘in behalf of an enterprise in which she has a deep interest. The convention ought to be composed of representatives from every one of the states bordering on the great lakes and those of the west whose products go to the seaboard by the lake route. If the preliminary agita- tion had been commenced in time this would have been realized. REPORTS from the various charitable institutions of the city show that during the holiday week the poor and helpless ‘people of Omuha were abundantly pro- wvided for. The distribution of charity has become so systematized that there 18 no longer any excuse for the existence of the ohronic tramp and beggar.

The vegular annual agitation in favor of the improvement of tho Irio canal is now in progress in the state of New York. Governor Flower urged the im- portance of it in his recent messugo to the legislature and some of the news- papers, notably those which ate not in favor of the ship canal idea, are calling upon the lawmaking power of the stato to do something to mike the canal useful. But it wou!d be much better if all this energy were directed toward stimulating a public sentimont in favoe of the decp water- way from tho lakes to the sea. Expori- ence has shown that the state of New Yorlk will not keep the Erie canal even in & fair state of repair, to say nothing of deepening it and enlarging its locks, a8 is now proposed. Thoe commerce of the country has entirely outgrown that little ditch and the insignificant 2 ton boats that navigate it. It can not be made a successful competi- tor against the powerful railroad cor- porations. Concerning the latter the New York Zimes says: *They are al- lowed to encroach upon the piers in this city set apart by law for canal boats and to hindor seriously the discharge of their cargoes. They monopolizs the elevator facilitios at Buffalo, and 1t is alleged that they charge exorbitant and unlaw- ful rates for tne transfer of grain to canul boats. It is lknown that they re duce their grain rates during the season of navigation so as to deprive tho canals of their fair share of the traflic and put | them up to recoup their losses after the | close of navigation,” This is the condition into which the Erie canal has now fullen. The railroad corporations and the elevator monopoly have killed it. The people of the Em- pire state refuse to support it in accord- ance with the needs of the time, and even if they were to consent to the im- vrovements now asked for, it would not be oapable of meeting the grow- ing transportation demands of the present, 10 say nothing of the future. It may be that another yearor two of Erie canzl exporience will be required to convince the people of the utter use lessness of trying to make that small diteh a formidable competitor of the rail- roads; but why not squarely fave the plain truth that the canal is no longer adequate to meet the demandsof the great lake commerce, and that a ship canal must take its place. What is noeded is & more perfect aporeciation of 1T DOE: | of | board of directors of the Omana | vecognized on all | ste of | other important factor | g bod,; the rl«nslom\wrl> of tha country nml the l growth of the commerce of the lakes. Tt is nseloss to talk about the expense ‘ of an enterprize upon which such vast | interests depend, for that expense must sooner or later be borne, and every year | delny will take money out of the pockests of the people for which they never can receive a return. ORGANIZE A CHAMBER OF The decisive vote by COMMERCE which the new Board last Monday is nds ns an emphatic endorsement of u radical chango of pol- | icy on the part of the men at the helm of the board. 1t is expected that the now directos | will infuse vitality into the board and make it what it origina'ly was designed to be mercantile association for the promotion of the intorests ot our bers and the estab!ishme a produce exchan With these two objects dily in view, and with the hearty ctive co-operation of our wholesalo | merchants and grain dealors, the direc- | tors and officers of the Board of Trade | will find a broad field for building up the commerce of Omaha. Heretofore the | enorgies of the board have been scat- | tered and freguently wasted by under- taking projects ontirely outside of its province. Side by side with the Board of Trade, two other organizations are exerting n wholesome influence for the promotion Omaba’s growth. The Nebraska | Manufacturers and Consumers associn- tion has within the past year createld almost a revolution among Nebraskans in favor of patronizing home industry and production of miils and factories in Omaha and every other city in this state has been stimulated and incy and ndustries have been established in 1a and other towns by the impetus given o the homo industry movement. The Omaha Builders’ exchangs is an- in promoting the growth of Omaha, In stimulating construction with Nebraska made ma- terials and encouraging enterprises that give employment to largo numbers of | workmen in the building trades. T'he time is ripe for the amalgamation of the membership of the Board of Trade, the Manufacturers’ association and the Builders' exchange as one to be known as the chamber of commer This wili make a body of 500 representative merchants, manu- facturers and builders, whose combined influence in promoting great enterprises would be almost irvesistible. While each of the three component organ tions within the chamber of commerce would have its own field of activity, their strength united in favor of any project would bocome a power for good that has never before been felt in this city. Ono reason and the chicf reason why Omaha has been held back in her race for commercia) supremecy has been the lack of concord and co-operation. Whenever any great enterpriss is at- tempted our most influentinl business men have been pulling apart instead of | pulling together as they do in Minne- apolis, Danver and Stoux City. A chamberof commerce will tond to harmonize discordant cluumns, fortify and strengthen th against for- midable competitors and vitalize overy artery of trade and industry. Above all things it will bring togothor all our live, wide-nwa'ce business men and fam- ilinize thom with our weak points and our strong points, our wants and our resources. of Trade were eclectod | jobe it of and sed PROGRESS OF A GREAT WORK. Tho friends of popular education everywhere will find gratification in the fact that the work of university exten- sion is making steady progress. At the national coaference recently held in | Philadelphia it was shown in an im- pressive und instructive way the remark- able and encouraging measure of success alveady achievod by a movement of re- cent origin and at its inception of very doubtful prospects. It is a fact familine to those who know | anything of the plan of university ex- | tension that it has been operative in Eugland for several years, and has un- doubtedly exerted a powerful influen in raising the intellectual level of the community. [t originated in the recc nition by liberally educated and thoughtful men of tho necessity, or, at loast, the groat desirability of enlar ing the mental horizon and stim- ulating the intellectual activity of the great masses of the people, wio, t00 much absorbed in their daily labors, had failed to build upon the basis of the knowledge gained in their early life, or to keep abraast with the rapid and con- stant developmonts of modern thought. In view of these conditioas, it was de- termined to make an effort to bring these people, already educated up: to a certain point and not lacking in intelli- gence, within the scope of the higher ture of which the university is the natural center aud most authoritative oxponent. These people being unable to go to the university it was decided to bring theuniversity to them, and by the organization of local education at cen- ters under university direction to open up & popular channel of communication with the most enlightened thought of the day. The movement, which had been car- ried to great success in Ilngland, where iv originated, met with gre favor as | soon as it was instituted in this country, The people for whose benefit it was | projected showed a gratifying. intor- | est in the wo Wherever it was | started there was at once ex- hibited a general poupular solicitude for its success. It gained ground rapidly in the eastern cities, in many of which it has been pushed with earn- estness and vigor. It has made greut \ progress in Philadelphia, and it has \ gained steadily in Rhode Island, Wis- | consin and Kansss. In each instance | the impulse was given und the move- | ment has been molded by the leading educational institutions in those states. Brown university in Rhode Island and the state universities in Wis- consin and* Kansas have been in- strumental in cirrying university edu- | cation to the people, and in fact the sympathy and assistance of nearly every | | loose | sent a satisfactory plea under I character of | seen that this will | York leading college and university in the country has gone out to this movement, | aund the men to whom it owes its phe- ‘l % - nomenal nuwo-.‘m ia the main the hard-worked wmhulhu!h' members of facultios andfe professions. 1t is time that Nebraska had begun 1o show some interest in this method of extending - popuiar education. This stute has a well appointed university and there is no why it should not take up this work of university ex- tension and give the peop'o of this state an oppogtunity to avail them- selves of it.

SOUTH DAKOTA'S DIVORCE LAWS, The state of South Dakota has won n unenviable notoriely by reason of the laws of that common- wealth, l'or the last two years every husband or wife who desired to annu the marringe contract and could not pre: the law lived, or wait for they re- to Hou h ason divoree of the state in would a verdict wished to move their p lace Dakota, whore cient to enable from the their wish which compelled longer they 10 than do, would of residence a briel habitat pplicants for a rele: matrimonial S ol ithout much regard to the their complaint. This casy method of severing the marriage bond has been a prolitable thing for the courts and lawyers of South Dakota, but it has been a reproach upon the state. Ivis greatifying tonote that the people of South Dakota have begun to realize thatitis desirable to have reform in this respect and to get into line with bo “the sentiment of other portions of the country in reference to this very impor- tant matter, No less than four bills have been introduced in the legis- lature proposing changes in the statutes relating to divorce, most of which attack the resi- dence foature and proposs that the term shall be lengthened toa year. One of these meusures providas that no person shull begin a divorce suit before having been a bona fide resident of the state for one . and if the cause of action shall have oceurred outside of the state the term of residence shall be two vears. It is perhaps not surprising to find that there is a considerable oppo- sition to any change, but there is reason to hope that those who are hostile to an amendment of tho laws relating to di voree will be fu‘nnd to constitute s small & minority that their influence witl not have unr' effect in determining the question. At a time when the gen- eral sentiment of the country is taking positive form against loose divorce laws South Dakota cannot afford to occupy a position antagonistic to the gen- eral trena of public opinion. There is a general movement for more strin- gent legislation on this subject of divorce. For years the popular sonti- ment has been growing that the annul- ment of the marriage contract was too casily accomplished. No one who is familiar with the facts will doubt that there. has been ample justification for. this feeling. Every consideration affecting the soc welfare demands that there shall be veform in this direction, and thero is less reason for tolerating loose divorce laws in a new community than in an old one. South Dakota should as speedily as possiblo rid herself of the repronch that she suffers in this respect by so amending her divorce laws us to have them 1n accord with the best statutes of the older states for the protection of the marriage relation. COLORADO is to have a great beet sugar convention on June 18, and to judgo by the interést that is taken in it, something will be accomplished 1n be- half of the beet sugar industry in that state. The governor of thestate will ap- voint twenty delegates, each chambor of commerce in the state will send ten, the Denver Real Estute and Stock exchange ten. and each city and town having a population less than 5,000 will have five, each county ten, and each agricultural society will be entitled to ten, It will be be a large and gen- eral representation, and it is evi- dent that the « people of Col orado are decidedly in earnest in thewr efforts to promote the sugar beet indus- tr, Itis said that the Oxnards, who have two refinerics in Nebraska, con- templated putting $500,000 into a factory at Brighton, Colo., but will do nothing until they know what congress is going to do about the sugar bounty. This is one of the principal subjects that will be considered by the convention, In the meantime, what is Nebraska doing? The beet sugar industry is an important one in this state and there is as much reason for action here in respect to the sugar bounty as there is in Colorado. THERE is only one certain way of making and keeping the city clean dur- ing the coming summer, and thatis for the muaicipal authorities to do the work themselves pnd not leave any part of it to be dona. by individuals. Ex- prionce has amply shown that in most cages property owngrs and tenants will not obey the .daw in the mat- ter of removing''diseuss breeding refuse and vegy few are subjected to the penalties for such neglect.

The general feeling seemed to be that with an adequate system of quarantine, under national control, there would be no nocessity for shutting off immigration fora year, though it might be expedient to authorize the president to order a temporary suspen- sion in the event of the danger of a cholera invasion becoming sevious. THE project of constructing a canal from Omaha to the Platts river is looked upon with much interest by the laborers of this city, many of whom are now out of work. Itwill require a great deal of laborand will give needed em- ployment to a large number of men. The important question is, when is the work 1o be started? Judging by the business push that has always ch B: terized the men who have organized the canal company, to say nothing of their | well known financial ability and stand- ing, there can be little question that they will carry out the plan. The sooner the work everybody will be pleased. THE BEE has for years contended that the janitor costs the taxpayers of Omaha too much. Jomparative figures presented else- where in this issue prove tho fact. most twice ns much is paid to janitors in Omaha than is paid them in other cities of Omaha’s rank. There is no reason why school janitors should receive bet- ter pi in buildings owned by private citizens. A Great Truth in a Fe Washington News.
