THE BEE PUBLISHING COMPANY BWORN STATEMENT Btate of Nebr O “CIRCULATION etary of T oleninly swe: DALY BER for 1803, was as George I T Publishing comp: he netual o the week cn follows: RGE and subseribed y of January, 180 NP, B TZECHUCK Sworn to he in my presence (his 7 (8eal] = Average Cir ubl alation for December, THE only comment that need now be made upon that awful story of riot and murder in North Carvolina is that it would have been a good story if it had been true. THE St. Louls Globe-Democrat s that the browers' war in that city “has reduced the price of beer from 5 cents a drink to 5 cents a drunk.” St. Louis ought to be a paradise for tramps. THE citizens of Buffalo are modest in their estimates of the city's population. They figure that the increase in 1892 was about 25,000, or over 500 a week. The railroads must be pretty busy moving people into Buffalo. THE house has made no mistake in its choice of speaker. Mr. Gavin is not only a marked improvement on Elder, but promises to compare favorably with any man who has ever occupied the speaker’s chair since the state was ad- mitted to the union. THE legislature convened one week y. The amount charged axpayers for the first week, excluding the adjournment, is fully $1,000. So far the people have got nothing for their money, but the corpo- rations and the lobby are satisfied. THERE is only one thing that will satisfy the people with the legislative deadlock, and that is the defeat of all combines und conspiracies to thwart legislation in their interest. Let the committees be organized with the sole view to expedite the enactment of laws to which members of all parties are pledged and all will be forgiven, if not forgotten. & THAT portion of the financial measure agreed upon by the house committee on banking and currency which proposes to reduce the tax on national bank circula- tion will not meet with general popular approval. There can be no reasonable objection to allowing the banks to issue notes to the par value of the bonds they deposit to secure circulation, but this ©oneession is all that they can fairly ask. The tax of 1 per cent a year on circula- %ion is not onerous to the banks, and unless it can be shown that the people would derive some benefit from reducing it, it should remain where it is. IT wouLp scem that the democrats of the present house are not disposed to recognize the demand of the Chicago platform for the repeal of the law tax- ing stato bank issues. A proposal to do this, made to the house committee on banking and currency, was rejected by the very decisive vote of 11to1. Rep- resentative Havter of Ohio introduced at the first session a bill in conformity with the demand of the platform, but it has not been heard of since and probably will not be until the next congress, if then. The views of eastern democrats are having some weight now, and they are not favorable to a restora- ency. THE indications are that the repub- licans in congress will be found practi- . eally unanimous in opposition to the im- mediate repeal or suspension of the sil- wer purchase law. This seems to be a fair inference from the substitute offered by Senator Aldrich to the McPherson resolution for an immediate suspension of the law, the substitute proposing a suspension after July 1, 1804, it in the meantime there should bs no international agreement re- gavding silver, the treasury 0 keep good its gold reserve by the sale of bonds. Of course if the republicans _decide upon this course that will do away with all chance of silver legisla- tion at the present session. AT A canal mass meeting in New York the other day resolutions were adopted which point out how the railroads have brazenly possossed themselves of priv- dleges to which they have no shadow of aight in order to cripple the Erie canal. They have seized upon the canal termin- als, ignored the state grain clevator law, forcing canal grain to pay nearly double the rate allowed, monopolized the wharves at Buffalo and New York, occupied the canal boat steps with their lighters, taken posses- sion of l)mpox-t that has ocost the state millions of dollars, and in fact Tvprhmd to their own use about all the available facilities provided by the state for the effective operation of the canal, which is their competitor for freight from the lakes to the seaboard. This is an old story retold, but the friends of the canal seem to be & little more indignant now than usual, and ps they will insist upon having DATLY BEE. | | unqualified approval to the 8800 | | tion | Nebraska City gi | feoiin | holp but squeal, o should | THE DEMO-REP, COMPINE The mouthplece of J.

There is no truth whatever in the assertion that Rosewater sought to dic tate any compact between certain repub- lican senators and the independents. If such a compact was proposed or made he was no party to it. He did, however, protest against any combination by re publican senators with corporation democrats, either for a division of patronage and spoils or for packing the senate committees. He did advise several republican senators to vote with the independents in organizing the senate and thereby to frustra scheme by which all de is sought to be defeated. This position every honest and reputable repiblican will uphold. The Mortonian organ says: sitvation was fully e was seen that it was “ choice between rvadical legislation, | dictated or controlled by Rosewater, or conservative legislation in which all would be interested.” This lets the cat out of the meal tub. Who canvassed the situation? Was it canvassed by the un- bought rvepresentatives of the peo- ple or the corporation - bosses and their rotten crew? Where | was the situation canvassed? Was it canvassed in railroad headquarters at Omaha orv in the oil rooms at Lincoln? Who says that the legislation Rosewater favors is radical? And what legislation will the corporation dictators graciously consent to in which all would be inter- ested? Perhaps J. Sterling Morton, Charles H. Gere and the demo-reps of the hoodle and monopoly combine can enlighten the people. lation *When the nvassed it THE FRENCH CRISIS MORE The political situation in France, which for weeks has been putting a tre- mendous strain upon the republic, has become more aggravated and serious, and the possibility of a revolution seems more threatening than at uny time since the Punama scandal bogun to receive ofticial attention.

This is a grave in the republie, for it is very apt to cavry with it, at least to the French mind, the belief that Carnot may be himself in- volved in the scandal.

It was stated on the floor of the senate a fow days ago that in Ala- bama and Georgia, for instance, the of- ficiuls make use of the quarantine laws to rob shipmasters. For example, a vessel will ge n sixteen or cight- een miles of Mobile, when there is no danger of eholera or anything else, and some person entively ignorant of his duty will go on hoard, burn some sulphur in a tin vessel, -call it fumigating, nd charge the vessel with very heavy fees.

It such Tue youn; the state of Washington is yet v but ifs people ave fully alive to *t that it has possibilities before it and that one of the most important steps toward its development the building of good voads. THE BEE has received a communication from the chairman of the islative committee of the road organ- ization in Lewis county in that state, | containing some information concerning the work that is being done there in the tion of public road improvement. The organization has sent out letters to all of the property owners in the county and has received hundreds of replies which indicate a lively popular intercst in the enterprise. The subject will be brought before the legislature and an energetic offort will be made to establish a tem of road construction that will meet the demands of the time. It is proposed that the roads to be built in cach county shall constitute a system and that a general plan to that end shall | be made at the outset. The plan pro- vides that a part of the work of construc- tion and all of that of repairs shall be done by the people, the cost to be b in proportion to the benefits, but that counties and townships may issue bonds up to a cer- tain amount. It is contemplated that by this means the roads may be built now and paid for in part by future genera- tions who will receive benefit from them. There can be no doubt that this is the only practicable plan. The great cost of constructing such roads as are now needed cannot all be borne by those who build them. To attempt to do this would mean simply temporary road building. It may be found that there are weak points in the preliminavy plan of the Washington people, but they can be cor- vected as the work of organization pro- ceeds.
