I see no reason why the publication of the respective lists of circulation in Omaha | should be put off to April 5—more than three woeks. The conditions of my deposit with Mr. Yates arc that the comparison of Omaha, South Omaha and Douglas county shall be concluaed witnin thirty days, and that of | the state within forty days. Each of my propositions requires that twenty days be glven for verification. That means that | your eity and county list must be published within nine days from l urday, so that time is given me for verifying the World- Herald list within the thirty days. T don't | propose to keep £,000 tied up when you haven't put up $1 of forfeit on your side of the controversy. We shall publish the South Omaha list Saturday if you don't print the World-Herald list before that date. But, mark you, under the conditions of this contest you have no right to say on what day T Bee shall pub- | lish its city or county list. You claim the | largest circulation in Omaha, South Omaha, | Douglas county and the state. I have of- fered you great odds under a forfeit of $5,000 deposited in certified checks. (1 is for you now to make good your claim, 1. olish your Iists for Omaha and Douglas county and give me time to verify them. If I fail to publish Tur Bre's lists and give you the op- portunity and time to verify their correct- ness, T forfeit my money and leave to the World-Herald the field to the paper having the largest circulation, which is worth 50,000 to the paper and will not cost you a penny. With nothing to lose and everything to gain, you ought not to ask or expect me to consent to any change of the conditions, It should not take more than three days to copy and set up your Omaha list under proposition ¥ No. 1, in which I offer to mateh every paying subscriber to cither of your daily editions in the city of Omaha with two subscribers for ‘Tue EVENixG Bes. When that list is pub- lished you can follow with the remaining names of subscribers in this eity and county. Now proceed to business or take down your sign of largest circulation. There is nothing further to talic about. E. ROSEWATER. TRADE conditions in Omaha continue to show gradual improvement. A GREAT many people are watching and waiting to seo what the state senate willdo with the house maximum rate bill. THE anti-railvoad pass bill in the state senate has breathed its last. How would it do to get up a substitute in the house and call it the anti-conductor's- check bill? THE law limiting indebtedness of pri- vate corporations is zood and must not be tampered with.

The Kan: legislature has voted an appropriation for the encouragement of sugar bect culture, which goes to show that the Kansas populists are not in ac- sraska populists regarding the propriety of state aid to develop sugar heet production. On this question we bel the Kansas populists are | right. As a principle, viewed from the theoretic standpoint, it is wrong to tax one class of citizens for the benefit of another class, even if in the end the whole commonwealth profits thereby. But from a practical standpoint tine spun theories of equity must give way to hardpan business methods. There is no | such thing as equitable taxation. Peo- ple who have no childven are school tax for the benefit of thos have children to educate. People who never ride ina carviage are taxed for streot pavements which they never use and men whe don't own a foot of land pay | road ta The citizens of Omaha have | been taxed and will continue to be taxed for one-eighth of the 200,000 and inter- est for which the state was bonded for the relief of the drouth suffere nd there isno end to inequitable taxation of one class of citizens for the benefit of another class, The only pertinent question about the sugar bounty is whether Nebraska, with all her advantages of adaptable soil and | climate; will be able to induce capital- ts to build twenty or thirty sugar re fineries within the next five years with- out a bounty, so long as other states are offering bounties and other inducements and so long as Germany and Austria are paying bounties upon all sugar exported to this country. Sugar beet culture in Europe has been extensively developed by bounties and tax remission. European sugar beets are cultivated by pauper labor and this fact alone makes compe- tition ruinous unless some aid is given to offset it, at least during the period while the industry is still in its in- fancy. SUGAR BE we ng who pa; xes, BUILDING-LOAN RESERVE FUND. Nebraska has in the neighborhood of seventy building-loan associations. Their aggregate assets amount to $3.000,000. This sum represents the vings and earnings of at least 4,000 shareholders, nearly all of whom are heads of families and wage workers, and it represents also less than fifteen years growth of this important economic movement in the state. At a reasorable estimate cach 21,000 accumulated means ahome ovthe improvement of one, so | the Nebraska associations have enabled 3,000 members to secure homes of their own and improve their condition in lif It is obvious that an interest of such importance, possessing limitless pos bilities for public good, deserves the earnest attention of lawmakers and the zealous care of state officials charced with the supervision of building-loan associations. Not only should they be held within proper limitations, but their methods of operation and their expenses. should be carefully watched, so as to check instantly every symptom of specu- lation and prevent reckless squandering of the funds entrusted to them, Mutuality of interest being the basis of buildi loan associations, it is the duty of the state banking hoard to see to it that every reasonable precaution is taken to prevent the per ion of that vrinciple. The board is given ample dis- tionary power under the law, not only to prevent the speculative element from imposing on confidence reposed in building-loan associations, but to require such guards as will place them on a | firmer foundation. To this end associ- ations should be required to open and maintain a reserve fund. If managers of associations fail to realize the impor- tance of providing against 1c bad investments of the is necess s through it is properly the duty ate to require it. No argument ary to show the wisdom of pro- viding for contingencies inseparable from business. Souad business policy demands it. Every solvent financial institution is prepared for ordinary emergencies avis- ing in the course of business.

TRYING TO DOWN KECKLEY, The savage onslaught which the World- Herald makes upon Hon. Charles Keckley for the efficient work he has | done in the cell house swindle investiga- tion will scarcely taint Mr. Keckley's well-earned reputation @s an upright representative of the people. The proof of the pudding is always in the eating. | Mr. Keckley has nothing to apologize for in his past career in connection with his record on the penitentiary. He is on record as an opponent to the exten- sion of the penitentiary contract and its transfer from Stout to Mosher and his vote is recorded in the journals of 1887 against the extension. The question | naturally suggests itself, why should the World-Herald or any paper pretending to advo decent government side with the thieves and swindlers as against an honest man. “Has the Double- Ender been annexed by Dorgan? It looks that way to a man up a tree. The fact that the Lincoln Jowrnal, which has been the official organ of the penitentiary gang, by which it was nour- ished in its infancy and kept alive in later years, leaves no room for doubt that the gang proposes to down Keckley for daring to grapple with it. But the gang has tackled the wrong man this time. THE OMAHA EXPOSITION. THE Manufacturers association has closed a contract by which it secures the Coliseum for its exposition this year. This disposes of the question as to a suitable place in which to hold the ex- position, and all that remains is to make | preparations for receiving and display- ing the large contributions of Ne- braska made articles that were ever brought together. Last year the Coli- seum proved ample for the displays made in the initial exposition of the as- sociation, and although it is expected that the exhibits will be much more numerous and extensive this year it is believed that by judicious use of the pace there will be room enough pro- vided for all exhibitors. This years exposition will forcibly demonstrate the need of a commodious exposition hall centrally located in this y. The Coliseum was never intended to meet that demand, and it falls far shott of doing so. It is hardly practica- ble to use a building so far from the cen- ter of the city for the numerous conven- tions and society meetings that are held here. Their number is increasing year 1 ar, and the “logic of the situation” clearly shows that Omaha must becon an important convention city. The Manufacrurers association has for some time past contemplated a plan by which this common need could be met, but thus far nothing has been accomplished. It is probable that the magnitude of this vear’s expsition will elinch the matter, and that Omaha will have a lal and centrally located exposition and conven- tion hall within a year from this time. the legisla- to go slow about reaching conclu- sions concerning rottenness and cor- ruption in the penitentiary, insane asylums and other institutions for fear of making a martyr out of some honest man. There is not the least danger that an honest man is going to be branded as a thief by the legislature. The only danger is that a great many thieves and swindlers may be able to cover their tracks and pass themselves off for honest men. For that matter, however, the legislature is not looking for any helpor honest advice from the Journal in any effort to root out publie thieves and jobbers. That paper has always been the mainstay and, pliant apologist of all the rogues and ringsters that have ever infested the state capital. has heretofore said, “the logic of events” points to a free bridge between Omaha and Council Bluffs. The only question is, what is the best way to get it? Shall Doug and Pottawattamio counties get together and vote bonds to cover the cost of construction? The peo- ple of Council Bluffs seem to favor such action, on the ground that the benefits sure to acerue in dollarsand cents would more than offset the amount of interest to be paid on bridge bonds. It is highly probable that the interest in this pro- ot that has sprang up across the river will be viewed with favor by the pro- gressive men of Omaha. One thing is certain: If the two communities can harf | monize all interests in the direction of a free bridge its construction will soon be assured, IT 18 to bo sincevely hoped that the new penitentiavy officials will take im- mediate stevs to clean and renovate the establishiment, THE Bgk has shown that it in a filthy and dilapi- dated condition, for which there is no rational excuse. The ex-officials who ave responsible for the existing state of things merit public smnation and legislative consure, state appro- priates meney for maintaining the penitentiary buildings and for their care and preservation. What was done with the money? is REPRESENTATIVE DAVIES of Cass is entitled to a great deal of eredit for the forcible and lucid presentation to the house of the report of the penitentiary investigating committee, of which he is a member and in which he has rendered excellent service during the progress of the investigation.

The C; go plan is only an- other illustration of the growing power of an untrammeled pross, whose influ- ence for good is immeasurable. LET the legislature proceed with the work of house cleaning, If reports bo true there is dudf'if the corners of one or two other stafe institutions. If the senate and hous committ on public lands and buildings will carefully scru- tinize and check up supply vouchers of all state institutions it is possible that more erookedness may be exposed. 1f not, such inspection would satizfy the people that the state’s money has not been squandered, and such informa- tion at this time would be worth all it might cost., THE reports of legislative investigating committees made last week had the good old ring in them and the assurance they convey that there are men in the pres- ent legislature strong enough to take a firm stand in defense of the honor and integrity of the state is of the high- est value to the people. The fact should present house of rep- resentatives has no compromise to make with publie thieves and a majovity of its members have the courage and the abil- ity to maintain their ground. THERE is yet hope for New Orlean: The dispatches announce that she is done with prize fighting for all time. Recent mills have proven flat financial failures for the two sporting clubs there and the Law and Order league has de- clared war on the pugs with chances of BUC Gradually and surely the truth is dawning that there is no place in the United States for the professional prize fighter. It begins to look as if he would soon have to go to work. 188, By THE way, what does the legislature proposeito do with the public thieves who plundered the State Hospital for the In- sane at Lincoln? Ave they to be pe mitted to enjoy the fruits of their ill- gotten gains?
