Tt is estimatod that this fund will aggre- gate at least $10,000,000 when the school lands of that st re all disposed of. GRADUALLY but surely that Anaconda monopoly, the Standard Oil compan draws its relentless coils about ever rival in the field. After a year's skill- ful mancuvering it now secured entire control of and absorbed its most formidable competitor, the Manhattan Oil company. The Manhattancompany built immense refineries at Townsend, Walkens and other points throughout Ohio, and sank millions in its struggle with the Standard. The property trans- ferred by the deal is valued at $15,000,- 000. This gigantic monopoly is likely to have its own way herveafter, and the public must endure the consequences of Mr. Olney's failure to enforce the Sher- man anti-trust law. IT MAY as well be understood first, last and all the time that the impeachment trial now in progress before the supreme court isa judicial inquest into the con- duct of the state ofticers charged with misdemeanors in office by the legisla- ture. It is not so much a question whether they have committed felonious aots either individually or collect- ively or in collusion with others, but whether they have conducted and managed the business of the state with reasonable care and used due diligence to protect its moneys, property and other inter In other words, whether their conduct in the discharge of their functions has shown them to b> honest, faithful and trustworthy. 218, AMONG other important propositions for the future guidance of the party to be considered by the national republi- can committee at Louisville next week is that to base the representation in the next convention on the vote cast in the respeotive states, instead of the present system. The chief argument advanced in favor of this change is that reliable republican states shall not be outvoted in the national conventions by states that are absolutely certain to cast their electoral vote against republican candi- dates. For instance, it is unfairand un- reasonable to lot Texas with her 100,000 democratic majority cast thirty votes in the republican national convention while Towa only casts twenty-six votes and Nebraska sixteen. THE Lincoln organs of boodlerism and jobbery still persist in aseribing the im- peachment proceedings against state of- ficers and ex-state officers to personal and partisan animosity and hostilitv to the city of Lincoln. Will theso papers be good enough to print particulars, point out who among the members of the leg- islature or influentiul partisans outside of the legislature hadeany personal grievance aguinst a single one of the mon charged with misdemeanor in office, and which of the three parties has a claim to origina- ting the proceedings, or can truth- fully pretena to have all the credit for exposing the fraud committed in the state institutions and trying to vindicate the law by the Impeachment of derelict officials. [t would also be interesting to have a bill of particulars furnished that would sustain the allegation that any- body favoring impeachment proceedings or removals for misdemeanor oxpects these thing s to be done at the expense of Lincoln or hopes thereby to tarnish the good name of the city and its reputable citizens. — IT HAS been remar that the his- _tory of the Russian treaty affords a very striking example of what appears to be a grave fault in existing institutions. This refers to the fact that it is possible for the senate to ratify & tr without giving that arrangement the publi ity that i8 demanded by the people. *“The more obnoxious such an international agreement is,” the Boston Advertiser, “the more temptation will there be to withhold the treaty from the publie, that it is possible that the nation may be pledged to most flagrant entangling alli- ances without any knowledge on the part of the people for weeks, months, perhaps years, aftor the bargain has been made.” “‘Manifestly,” further says that paper, “such a course is full of danger, and the instance afforded in the present case is only anew and strong argument for the discontinuance of the executive session at least in times of peace.” The intelli- gent popular sentiment of the country is unquestionably opposed to all secret business on the part of the senate, the abuses and dangers of which make it a real and serious evil. It is & praotice wholly unrepublican. ed observes BETTER OUTLE1S PRODUCTS. Bome time ago the presidentof the ! | Great Northern railway said in public address that the wheels of com- | merce ave clogged by overproduction, | the facilities of transportation being in- sufficient to take the nereasing products to market. [t was stated that millions of bushels of t and barrels of flour were awaiting shipment at Chi- | cago and Duluth, while many of the great milling ¢ompanies beyond Lake Michigan are sending a hall two-thirds of their output divee to Buffalo by water, and the limit to all this traffic is found at pro only in the warchouse room at Bufalo and rail facilities castward Moreover the ontlook for package freight castward and westward is be yond anything ever known before.

They present forceful argument that can made in favor of the proposed canal around Niagara falls, ing the lakes with the scaboard, compel the conelusion that or some other practicable and @ quate plan for giving increased facilities transportation must be provided in the not remote future. It is apparent that the existing and projected railways cannot move the great v of western products promptly to the sea hoard, nor they promptly tr castern fr to the w heen suggested that an immed of relicf would be found if the of the Eric canal were improved and the alled Belgian system towing adopted in that waterway.

On November 1, according to the report of the secretary of the treasury, the volume of money in circulation was in ronnd numbers $1,600,- 000,000, It has increased since and prob- ably at this time isat least $1,625,000,000, or about $26 per capita. Yet from all quartors there come reports that money is close, although there is no extraordi- nary activity in business or in specu- lation to make it so. The legitimate demand for money does not appear to be greater anywhere than is usual at this With normal conditions money ought to be at present both abundant and cheap. What is the explanation of the fact that it is notso? It would seem th the only rational one is the f ing of uncortanity in financial civelos as to the future. Nobody knows what the next will be or what will be tha future policy of the government, (. tain assurances have been given by the secretavy of the questionably with that they shall but circumstances may will compel a chan The fact is apparent to everybody that the conditions which led up to the treasury complieation have not changed, and so long as this is the case it will be dificult for financial interests to feel complete confidence in the future. It is understood that the ident has de- termined to call an e session ot con- gress in September, chiefly for the pur- pose of taking action upon the financial question.
