The republican will not be respongible for the failure of legislation demanded by the people to curb the rapacity of corporate greed. 17 18 a curious fact, and one that will surprise most people, that of the $3,000,- 000,000 worth of crops estimated to have been produced in this country in 1892 the largest item is $750,000,000 worth of | hay. This affords some idea of the enor- mous live stock interests of the United States. IT18 a promising sign of the times that the governors of various states are touching upon the subjeet of public roads in their recommendations to the lawmakers. Some have said much and some little on that topic, but it is clear that the importance of doing something in the direction of road improvement is generally recognized. THE lightni rod swindlers, after working the trustful farmers of Towa for some time, have crossed the Mis- souri and commenced operations in Ne- braska. One farmer near Fremont has been taken in to the amount of $150, and doubtless there arve others who have been swindled, but are ashamed to com- plain. The proper way to deal with a stranger who offers something for noth- ing is to let him alone. REPORT is current at Lincoln that the combine that finally divided the spoils in the senate was formed by the use of a liberal distribution of corporation boodle. Whether this is true or not will be de- veloped when the senate commitees are named. The corporations know no party. They were just as willing to let the demo-reps organize in their interest as they were to let the demo-pops do so. All they want is the privilege of pack- ing the committees and block all legi: lation that doesnot meet their approval, Ir 18 surprising that less than two dozen persons should have attended the annual meeting of the State Historical society. It would seem as if twice that number from Omaba alone ought to have felt interest enough in the work of the society to lend it the encouragement of their presence, The compilation and preservation of a record of the state’s history is important because of the great value it will have for future generations. Material thut may now be gathered with little difficulty will soon be hard to find. The records preserved by historical societies in the older states are now of immense value, and the same will be true of the cords of Nebraska a few generations hene ALTHOUGIH last year was one of profit to many railvoads, thivty-six, with 10,5608 miles in operation and #368,000,000 in stocks and bonds, went into the hands of receivers.

This means an in- ‘ease of just 50 per cent in the outlay 1at is contemplated to be made duri the present year at the expense of the taxpayers of this county. The cstimate of this year's county di bursements is made up of the following items: 40,000 ) 2000 W £517,000 m with the expendituves of 18 1 be found -that the estimate for 1893, slusive of the sinking fund, contemplates an increase for the general fund of over 35,000, for the road fund of over $20,000, for the bridge fund of over ,000. Then there is $25,000 for the insane fund and $40,000 for the hospital and an inerease of $3,500 in the soldiers velief fund. It is very questionable whether the taxpayers of this county will endorse any increase whatever in the expenditures of the county during the present year over the year 1892, If the commissioners have Dbeen able to pay off nearly $70,000 of old debts during 1892 and start out this yeur with 000 in the varjous funds, they certainly can manage the affaivs of the county this year without adding 50 per mt to their estimates. Our county xpenses are already as high as they ought to be, and unless the board has in view some much needed permanent im- provements there is no reason why it By compar should draw any move out of any fund | this year than last yea THE DIC If Mr. Cle: he made a mistage in the attempt to in- fluence the democrats of the New York legislature in the choice of a United States senator, it is because his faith in his own political judgment is superior to all conditions and circumstances. F'rom the day-t became known that the present legislaturo of the Empive state would elect a democratic success to Senator Hiscock, the name of Ed- ward Murphy, jvr., the chairman of the democratic state committee and for years one of the most active of party workers, became prominently identified with that po He was the avowed choice of the faction of which Senator David Bennett Hill is the chief, and which embraces the aggressive demo- crats of New York, without whose as- sistance Mr. Cleveland could not have carried the state. Although admittedly not an ideal man for the highest logislative body in the nation he had done valuable scrvice for the party in the presidential campaign and thereby established a claim to what- ever reward there was in sight. What- ever his velations to Mr. Cleveland may have been he was loyal to the cause and the dominant element of the New York democracy appreciated that. Moreover, David B. Hill wanted him as a colleague in the national senate, and this was a potential fact in his favor. The an- nouncement of the candidacy of M, Murphy was the signal for opening the mugwump battes upon him, aided by a few demoeratic guns of small caliber. The pecial friends of the president-elect joined in the attack, and finally Mr. Cleveland himself was in- duced to commit himself in opposition to Murphy. Everybody who knows. thing about practical politics saw that this was a blunder, and it is not miti- ated by the claim that Mr. Cleveland is still a private citizen and entitled to all the privileges of eriticism and sugges- tion as such, It was not con- cern for the party or the public interests that led the president- elect to intermeddle in this matter, but rather his anxiety to secure a senator from New York who would be in all circumstances a supporter of the administration and a foil to Senator Hill. Mr. ( land based his objections to Mr. Murphy, not on personal grounds, but on the score of a lack of exporience in public life, forgetting that he himself had no more experience than Murphy in public afMairs when he was elected g« ernor of New York, a position of not less responsibility than that of United States senator, The course of Mr. Cleveland forced a square fight between the democratic fac tions in New York, and the one of which he is the acknowledged head has suf- fered defeat. The democra legisla- tive caucus nominated Muvphy for sena- tor by a practically unanimous vote. It was a signal victory for Hill and the machine and it demonstrates conclu- sively that the anti-Cleveland element of the w York democracy is still the dominant element. What effect this vesult may have upon the incoming administration s problemati- cal, but it is not to bo expected that either of the New York senators will go out of their way to promote any public policies which Mr. Cleveland himself may originate or to wanifest particular intevest in the friends he may desire to rveward, Neither Hill nor Murphy owe the president-elect any obligations, while they may justly olaim that he is their debtor, and having proved them- selves to be the masters of the democratic machine in New York they will hardly fail to command in congress an influence commensurate with thelr political power in the Empire finances I ing to the r, 88 | submitted by the chairman of the finance | 50,000 | oo | | Toyally land does nnt realize that | | to profit dietator of his party, has encountered one decisivo defoat, This shows that he fs not invalnerable and it may be the fororunner of many more be presidential term is ended. BENJAMIN F. BUTLER. One of the most remarkable and inter- esting Americans who attained national distinetion during the past third of a century is dead. Benjamin F. Butler, who achioved o gencrons measure of suc- cess as lawyer, soldier and politician, was for nearly twenty-five years, bogin- ning with the opening of the rebellion, a unique figure among the prominent ors of that period, commanding during a portion of the time a degrec of popular atten- tion and interest accorded to few others, It can be said, perhaps, of most sues cessful men that circumstances made them, but if this were true in some measure of General Butler, no one who | will study his characteristics can doubt that he possessed the qualities which make circumstances. He was a poli- tician of local fame before the war and | had given promise of notable suceess in the political avena, ' The war car ried him into military life and | he spoedily made his presence felt there by an intrepid exer of those mental resources which distin- guished him. He was not intended for a great military leador, but he did good service as a soldier, and there was never a doubt as to his patriotism and cour- age. Of all the union generals he was probably the best hated by the southern people, but that fact detracted nothing from the respect of the people he served and estly. In politics General Butler a most vavied carecer. He political lifo as a democrat and in the memorable Charleston con- vention of 1860 voted fifty-two times for Jefferson Davis as a candidate for the presidential nomination. After the war he was a republican and was elected to congress by that party. His ea in congress was the most notable pavt of his life, marked as it was by a cou ous avowal of opinions, great ability in debate, and remar intellectual His republicanism most aggressive kind and was the most active of the srevs appointed by the house of repr sentatives to conduct the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson, Subse- quently he consorted with the democratic, the greenback and the labor parties, manifesting in this an inordinate am- bition for political honors which he was prepared to follow whevever it might i him. General Butlor was distin- yuished in his profession and unques- tionably possessed in @ high degree those litics of mind which are to great success in the general ce of the law. He was resource- ful, shrewd and skillful, rarely allowing an opportunity to clude him or failing by the mistakes or oversights of an opponent. In the practical affairs of life he had more than ordinary sagac- ity. Altogether Benjamin F. Butler was & man who, if he did not make any great or lasting impression upon his time, was useful to the nation in the day of its greatest peril and deserves to be remembered as a loyal and patriotic citizen. had begun re- sources. he 1- DIAN COMCETITION. The report sent out nearly two weeks ago, that it was the intention of the president to issue a proclamation curtail- ing or abolishing the privilege now joyed by Canadian railroads of por merchand the United States free of duty, under a system very advantageous to the foreign roads at the expense of the American companies, as yet lucks confirmation It isnot to be doubted that the pre: dent takes a very lively interest in this sub; , to which he referred in his annual message as one of great im- portance. He then said: “We should withdraw the support which is given to the railroads and steamship lines of Canada by a traffic that properly belongs to us, and no longer furnish the carnings which lighten the otherwise crushing | weight of the enormous public subsidies that have been given to them,” but in the same connection he implied that there was a question as to the power of the treasury to deal with the matter without further legislation. It has been understood that the seeretar of state and the treasury have been refully looking into the whole subject, h a view of carrying out the line of policy indicated in the president’s mos- sage, but it would scem that no con- clusion has yet baen reached. ‘With regard to the question of further legislation, late advices from Washing- ton indicate that any movement de signed to throttle competition is certain to encounter a very vigorous opposition. The first step in such a movement, if it be made, will be a proposition to repeal the consular seal- ing law, under which the Canadian roads are permitted to carry merchan. dise in hond to points in the United Statos, enabling them to obtain a very | large amount of traffic that would other- wise eome to American road This sm has been move ov less vigorously | attacked for several ye: one argu- ment against it being that it resulted in a loss of revenue to the government, but upon investigation this was found not to be the Another argu- ment urged against the existing condi- tion is that the Canadian roads are able to and arve constantly evading the inter- state commerce law, and this is practi cally admitted by the Intesstate Com- merce commission, though no positive proof is offered that such is'the case. Finally it is urged that in allowing the foreign corporations the privileges they enjoy, they being liberally subsidized by the Canadian government, an injury and injustice are done to American rail- roads which it is the duty of our gov- evnment, in the interest of its own peo- ple, to remedy. Referving to this sub- ject, the Interstate Commerce commis- sion suggests thut there should be relief for American carriers, but it says that whatever remedies may be adopted should be selected with due regard to the welfare of the Americun shipper and passenger, as well as to the carrier, and of our interior cities and towns, as well as our seaports.

These are considerations that make the problom very perplexing, and as there are &éveral millions of our people in tho Borthwest and New Eng- land who are most directly interosted in this subject and_are nearly unanimous against radical inlerference with Cana- dian competitiony the chances of further legislation on the subject cannot be ve- garded as very promising THE WAY OF THE TRANSGRESSOR The most important event in railroad circles lately reported is the withdrawal of the New Jersey Central Railroad company from the Reading combine, Hoveafter that road will be operated in- dependently, as it was before the agree- ment between the Reading and the Le- high Valley was entered into. This action is due to the fact that proceedings are pending for the appointment of a receiver for the road, and the forfeiture of its charter upon the ground that it had entered into an illegal combination with the Reading Notice of the dissolution of this agreement has been sent to Chancellor McGill, before whom the proceedings were pending. with a plea that the railroad company be given an opportunity to prove the good faith of the withdrawal in order that the pro- coedings for a receivership may stopped. The New Jersey Central has been an important factor in the great coal deal, but if its withdrawal was the only reason for anticipating the breaking up of the combine there would be good ground for the belief that such a desirable result would not follow. There is, however, a strong feeling among the best financial and railroad authorities that the combine cannot t much longer. Before the severance of the New Jorsey Central's relations with the Reading was announced, it was clear that confidence in the future of the alliance had been severely shaken. The fall of Reading shares from to 50, suid Bradstecet’s several days ago, “has been attended by a good deal of bearish activity, the basis for which is the express belief that the combination of anthracite producers under the con- trol of the Reading cannot be main- Lt- ing.” Again the journal quoted said in the same arti arrangement forred to in last week's issue of Brad- street’s , by which the Reading manage- ment has obtained financial and othe assistance from a Philadelphia moneyed corporation, to which it practically intrusts the management of its coal produciug interests, is cited as an indi- cution that avenues formerly open to it have been closed, and that the financial power which originally stood behind the combination is changing its position.” Perhaps it is not best to be too hopeful that the combine will at once be broken up, butitisapparent that it is beginning to totter, This 1ot becanse it has faile to make money, but because it is im- possible to maintain confidence in any corpor which carries on business tion of law and in dc sentiment. be in contray ance of publi SECRETARY RUSK senate states positiv has unofficially stated several times of that plenro-pneumonia has been stamped out of this count 1t has beenachieved at the cost of five years' work and has proved exccedingly the country to such a cost. cattle have disease hm report to the 1y, as the secretary to b profitabls carry out the wor ted with this 50 successfully By means of the tem _ put into practice by !-wt-n‘(‘ll\ Rusk foreign countries have been compelled to acknowledge that they had no longer any excuse for the exclusion of Ame attle and beef and our European mu has b wonderfully improved in consequen A short time ago England sot on foot an as to certain reported cases of in cattle imported from this and there was som k of ex clusion, but of late little has been heard of the matter.

In addition to these there are many dealers present for the purpose of joining the association and profiting by the di ion of subjects relating to their business. The number of implement dealers in the state vapidly increases with the growth of the agricultwal population and the demand for tools with which.to cultivate the soil and harvest the erops. Ts it not plain that the manufacture of such arti- cles must become one of the most impor- tant industries in the state?
