THE 10WA REPUBEIOFNS, The republicans of Towa are getting ready for another state campaign, and they are manifesting a commendable disposition to cut loose from the influence that has handicapped the party in the past. Theexperience of the republicans last year ought to have taught them that in order achiove -success they must rid themselves of the prohibition load which for years has been a heavy burden upon the shoulders of the party. Every intelligent student of political affairs knows that the cause of republican deféat in the last two gubernatorial campaigns in Iowa was the fact that the party was commit- ted to the support of prohibition. In the presidential contest of last year the republicans cut loose from prohibition, 1d the result was a signal vietory that fully vindicated this position. The state was carried for the republican ticket by a decisive majority, showing that on | a clean *fight where distinctive re- publican principles alone are in- volved the majority of the people of Towa ave in favor of those prineiples. The party will make a fatal mistake if it fails to profit by this lesson. It has been most amply demonstrated that it can expeet only defeat so long as it con- tinnes to defend prohibition and make that policy a party It has begn vanquished in two state elections on this question and theve is every reason to believe that it will be defeated again if it undertakes to make prohibi- tion a cardinal part of its policy. It cannot offer any better 1 for doing this in the coming state cam- paign than it had to present in. the last two. The results of prohibition have not improved. There is noevi- dence to show that its operation is any better now than it was two or four yoars ago. On the contrary the probability is that it could easily be demonstrated that itis mewe generally inoperative than ever before, simply for the reason that popular sentiment has grown steadily more hostile to it. The more intelli- gently and carvefully the people have | studicd this question the more con- ved ll\-) have become that the polic, 1l to the al we '[.An and this has lod many who are not opposed to to antagonize tion. The number of this class is large, and while thoy with the general principles of the | publican party they will not that party if it assumes the ship of prohibition. To unquostionably a republican state whene r its voters are upon to render a verdict on republican poliey and principles, pure and simple, excluding all side lican purty of that state can win on a straight platform which rec the cardinal principles of the | it cannot be certain of success on any | other.

By the time impeachment has beon voted that sheot may bo expect it was chiefly instrumental in forreting out the frauds and pointing the way to the removal of the delinquent officors READY FOR IMPEACHMENT. The conelusions of the advisory com= mission composed, of eminent counsel to whom the legislature had submitted the testimony taken by its investigating committees, have fully borne out the views held by THE BE on the duty of the legislaturo to institute impeachment proceedings against the members of the Board of Public Lands and Buildings. The proof of complicity with dishonest contractors 1d corrupt methods was overwhelming the in the state house ar incontestable evidence of eriminal ligence and malfeasance. lmost every department of the state had for yea ynducted with reck- less disrega business methods. Many of the t ions of the hoard ¢ manifestly designed to con- tractors in perpetrating frauds upon the state with the sanction and full knowl- f the custodians of public property disbursers of the state’s funds. Such a deplorable condition of affairs makes it ineumbent upon the legislature srely to vindicate the law, but the management of state stitutions out of the hands men who have shown themselves untrustworthy by the process which the constitution provides for such con- tingencies. The preliminaries in this political pr ave been completed and the climax will be reached when the two houses in joint convention vote resolutions of impeachment and ign the delinquents before the highest judicial tribunal of the state. In taking this action the representa- tives of this commonwealth must divest themselves of all pavtisanship and be in- spired solely by the desire to purify our ge the state house of corrupt influenc This is the high- st duty that representatives of the peo- ple to their constituents and they re expected to discharge it without altering, regardless of political conse- nal friendships. records s been o of assist and in- owe A STRIKING CONTR: "he figures presented in the European cablegrams of THE BEE relative to tele phone charges in France, where the bu: iness is under government control, will serve to remind Omaha telephone sub- seribers of the fact that the extortionate rates to which they are obliged to sub- re enormously in excess of the cost of the service rende They have known this well enough heretofore, but the contrast between French and Amer- $s0 great that whenever a com- parison is made it produces renewed and increased indignation, In French cities of over 25,000 inhabitants the private subseriber is charged a rate equal to about $40 a year.

The French fur- nishing telephone service at this rate, and it is rected that the charges will be reduced as the system is extended. [t cannot be argued that our system more expensive than that of ‘France, for the American system has been copied in that country, as it also has been in Germany, where the rates ave about the same as in France.

A measure provid- ing for a reduction of telephone rates in this state has been introduced in the legislature, but there is no prospect that anything will come of it.

That gentleman has already necom- plishod a greatdeal in this dicection, and he has mBnifested an interest and zeal in promoting the work in he is engaged which it is mani- fostly the dtitY of the government to appreciato and-support. As stated by our contemporany, he acted for a long time mainly upen his own responsibility and without the: support of the national government, bat having been given an official status and d the recogni- tion of the European governments, it is reelv to be hoped he will be permitted to re- | main where he is and continue the work he has shown himself so well qualified to perform. The secretary of agricul- ture under the last administration spoke in the highest terms of the results that had been achieved by the work of the department’s agent. The good results of the corn propaganda, he said, conducted at a comparatively slight ex- pense to the department, are most readily shown by reference to the figures of our export trade. So long corn was used in Europe exclusively as cattlo feed its export from this country de- pended entively upon the abundance of the crop and the corresponding depre- slation in price, which made it ch even for that purpose only. But if are the exports the with those 1890, of ag which corn ve beon as great as in the year just clapsed, it is found that whereas in that year the price at point of shipment was 55 than cents, the price in 1802 was maintained at an average of over 9 cents, an advance of aboutt 33 per cent. While other causes may have had a part in effeeting this result, it was in no small degree due to the carnest efforts made in recent years to introduce corn to the people of Europe as a suitable food ior human beings. According to the estimate of the seeretary of agriculture the money value to the corn growers of the United States from the enhancement in the price of export corn amounted to £10,000,000, It is possible that within the next four years this sum may be increased four or five times, and if the present secretary of agriculture can contribute to this re- sult by encouraging the movement for extending the use of corn as human food in Europe he will have accomplished a most important service to the country. R PRIVIL One of the prims reasons why an effort should be made to'secure stopover pri for Omaha' during the World's fair is that many tradesmen for whom this city is a natural buying point will otherwise be tempted to make their visit to the exposition both a business and a pleasure telp. They can buy as cheaply in Omaha as in Chicago and in many respects it avould be to their ad- vantage to place their orders here, but oven if they realize this fact they are likely to make:purchases in Chic as a matter of cbnvenience if they are denied the privilege of buying tickets which _will permit them to stop in Omaha. It is the aim of ev business man not only to secure new customers, but alsp to hold those which he already has. There are many business men in the west who have long maintained commercial relations with this city, and who will naturally wish to stop heve when they go to the World's fair. It is reasonable to suppose that the stopover privilege would cause many to do so who would not otherwise. No effort should be spared to secure that privilege for thiscity. It will not be conceded voluntarily by the railvoad companies, but properlydirected work on the part of eur business men may be the means- of gaining it. The Commercial elub may be able to do something In this'direction if the advan- tages tobederived thereby are estimated at their real value. we past said the exports com for of iculture, fiscal year ly in last STOPOV lege: The people do not want the legislatir, adjorn be the state hows: purged of d The people will cheerfully bear any taration the legislature may impose on them if the Tegislature will only do its duty fearlessly and regardless of all pressure to has been from ot lobby. corpo- 5 of Massachusetts a fow days ago of an unusual compliment.
