OMAHA looks to the Douglas deloga- gation in the legislature to see to it that the proposed charter amendments are not mangled beyond recognition. THE movement of the pugilistic clubs to form a combine deserves to be warmly encouraged. It would have a tendency to make prize fighting unpopular. THE lobby at Lincoln has been strengthened the past week. me is short, and there are bills to be defeated, pigeon-holed or stolen. There is busi ness on hand for the trained lobbyist. IT 18 not at all surprising that the little fish in the Nebraska democratic pond have commenced to roil the poli ical water For more than four years they have had nothing buv water to drink THOSE northern cities that have been suffering from blizzards and snow block- ades are deserving of sympathy. Omaha has escaped that kind of affliction this winter, having had ouly one storm of any severity. The climate of this part of the world is about right in the long run. THE sorvices of the police have been required for the protection of the Chi- cago switchmen who are threatened by the strikers, but the chief of police re- fused to allow his men to do guard duty if any Pinkertons were employed. That was the right course to pursue. The Pink- erton system is pretty thoroughly crushed out now and should be dis- couraged everywhere. EI1GHT persons lost their lives in Chi- - cago last Monday by the falling of a brick wall which had been left standing after a fire. It now appears that the wall was known for months to be in a dangerous condition, and yet the city Yuilding department paid no attention toit. Ifthis was not a case of criminal megligence of the most™flugrant kind it would be hard to find one. THE fame of Nebraska as a sugar beet state has reached Holland. Two hundred families will sooun set sail for America, bound for our western border, where they will engage exclusively in the cultivation of sugar beets for the Nebraska sugar refiner These Hol- landers are expert beet growers and they will not only maké monoy, but will enrich and enhance the value of the land they cultivate, THERE was nothing significant in the speech of Emperor William at the ban- quet of the Brandenburg Diet, but his statement that he proposes to establish a state of things with which all Ger- mans will be content was sensible. If he succeeds in doing this he will prove him- self a wise ruler, but it will hardly be possible to bring about a state of popu- lar contentment by increasing the mili- tary establishment. THE action of the State Board of Health of Indiana in ordering all of the es in that state to clean their sircets and alleys may not cause the local authorities in those towns to cities and villa make any special effort in that dir Tlinois ¢ tion. THE legislative bill to provide for a bounty on every ton of sugar beets pro- duced in Nebraska comes up for final discussion in the house this evening. mined. This ow and that is _to induce every farmer in Nebraska to grow sugar beots. It Is primarily in tho | interest of the agriculturalist and secondarily in the interest of the whole state.

There is great interest felt as to what will be the attitude of the incoming ad- ministration re ing the general question of annexation, embracing the acquisition of both H 1 and Cana- dian tervitory, The public expross umed to have an inti knowledge of the views of the presid elect on this and other matters have ms m within the | given the impression that Mr. Cleyeland 10 bill, and it ought to |eig v Wisely and well as by a con- | | CLEVELAND AND ANNEXATION. \ | | i | | | strongly in favor of incorporat- ing the Hawaiian islands as a part of the | territory of the United States, and also | that he believes the time has come when | this country may properly extend encouragement to the annexation sentiment in Canada. The idea conveyed by these persons is that it will be a feature of the policy of the next ad- ministration to promote as far as possible the “manifest destiny™ doctrine, which contemplates the ultimate extension of the United States over the entire North American continent and the absorntion of whatever “‘outposts” it may be found expedient or desirable to possess. If these expressions were known to be authoritative the country would ha reason to expect a period of aggressive cffort to enlarge the ional power through territorial acquisition. The inaugural address of Mr. Cleve- land will, it is understood, contain such reference to this subject, par- ticularly Hawaiian annnexation, as will very eclearly indicate what is to be the policy of the administration on the general question. There is reason to be- lieve that Mr. Cleveland will not an- tagonize the proposition to annex Hawaii, but that he will recommend a thorough inquiry as to the sentiment of the people of the island, the financial and commercial conditions, and such other matters as it is important and de- able that the country should have an accurate knowledge of before decisive action is taken. It is stated that Mr. Cleveland advocates a commission, com- posed of men having a knowledge of Ha- waiian affairs and of American politics and commercial interests, whose duty it shall be to make such an investigation as will put con- gress in possession of full data for a sar comprehension of the various com- plications likely to follow in the train of any action this government may take. He will ask delay in action, it is said, in order that the reasons for and against the proposal to annex the islands may be reviewed by the executive and his ad- visers with due care. It will not be doubted that Mr. Cleveland and his sec- retary of state will cavefully guard American interests, but as these are not now menaced, as so far asappears are not likely to be, there is no demand for precipitant action, while there are most cogent reasons for adopt- ing a careful and deliberate course. If it be the desire of Mr, Cleveland that this be done a democratic senate will undoubtedly comply. No harm can come to any interestof the United States from waiting for a few months to ac- quire all the information which it is de- sirable to have before- taking final action. On the contrary such a course would exert a moral influence to our ad- vantage, and when wo did act we should do so0 with the approbation of the world. As to the question of Canadian annex- ation, while it may be true that Mr. Cleveland is not unfavorable to acquir- ing a part of the territ of the Dominion it is not to be pected th he will make any dircct referenco to the subject in his inaugural addr There would be obvious impropriety in his doing so and it is sate to say that there will be no reference to the subjeet, except possibly in the most indirect way, in what the president-elect will say to the nation at the time of his inauguration. If he has any design of promoting the cause of annexation among our northern neigh- bors it will be developed through the policy of the administration in dealing with the commercial relations between the United States and the Dominion. For years efforts have been made in cong nk of our diplo- matic representatives at the principal courts of Burope to that of ambassador. It has been urged in behalf of a change that our ministers were placed at a d advantage by reason of their inferior rank to the representatives of most other countries, but there has always been suf- ficient opposition to defeat proposals to create ambassadors. Finally a sort of | compromise has been reached, an amend- ment to the diplomatic and consular ap- propriation bill providing that the United States minister to any foreign country may be raised to the rank of ambassa- dor whenever a diplomatic representa- tion of an equal grade is sent by that country to Washington. The initiative in making the change in titles is left to other countries, but it is believed that the more important nations will gladly send here representatives of the higher, It is thevefore probable that during the incoming administration the United States will have ambassadors at the prineipal courts of Eur with per- haps some gain to the national dignity. ress to raise th THE appesl of Princess Kaiulani for just consideration at the hands of the | American people will find a friendly sponse from all those who believe that #irl and the people whom sho : Shif{Bas como o this coun- try to plead her cavse chinations of a band of napirators who rive hey of has done nothing £ invalidate, and the the republic of the scheme ich u | ming this o e A bl | ment for the clec | vote of tho people.
