It would also create a not le shrinkage in truth- fulness on the part of the ownoers of the estates. TO ALLAY a misapprehension that has obtained it may be settled that there is nothing either in the constitutions or statutes of the United States which r quires the president to give any specified notice of the calling of congress.

A strict observ of the rul of legitimate banking would have pre- vented the failure. It 1s stated that Omaha’s banks have on hand more than 10 per cent in cash with which to meet tho demands of de- positors. When it is considered that the comptroller’s official statement shows that tho average resorve in west- ern mational banks is from 25 to 28 por ecent the solidity of the Omaha banks will be easily understood. The United States mm-un._v for the district of Nebraska confirms the views expressed by THi Brk to the effect that if the transfer of the prison contract to ‘W. H. Dorgan was illegal, as it is fully te“avud to be, the property used in tho peration of the contract can be seized by tho state to protect 1tself from losses imposed by Mosher's peculations, THE worst thing about the collapse of the old Ford theater was the fact that its dangerous condition was well known to the officials thargo of the build- ing.

In the language of an Omaha real estate man, *‘the future is not very promising unless providence romes to our rescue with a fow well or- dered funorals.” HAYER has taken it upon himself to sound a bugle note of warning to the republican party to fight shy of Benjamin Havvison, Why this alarm should be sounded three and a half years before the presidential elec- tion can only be explained on the ground that the old general has for a number of years been a constant sufferer from po- litical nightmare. First his “black beast” was Rutherford B. Hayes, but Bince tho death of IHayes ho appears frighte: it the apparition of Harrison, Well, r Mr. Harrison is not in Governor Thayor's w f the inestimable benefits thatitis ed may result from the World's s that it may stimulate the con- struetion of a propor ship canal which would bring the Atlantic seaboard into connection with Chicago by way of the great lakes.

The lakes arve alveady traversed ny vessels of 4,000 tons burds A broad'and deep water- ‘way to the sea for ocean vessels would boa boom to transportation facilities that would not likely be relished by the railroads, but it would be a great bene- fit to the United Stutes as & whole, and &lso to Canuda. "THE RE-UNITED STATES." Andrew Carneglo may have no aspira- | tlon to enter tho lista against Edward Bellamy and Honry Goorge as a vague romancer and nebulous theorist, The owner of Homestead and si ar exton- sive industrial propertics has been to the public herotofore hypothatically a staid business man, with pr | matter-of- fact, common day views. Yet the publi- cation of his new edition of “Triumphant Democracy” promises to pl advance category of progressive specula- tions. Its closing chapter is the rital Jtopian dream which transcends the and lofty flights of the most versa- economic inventor. It is nothing than that the future is to see the United States and Great Britain again one country with a common citizenship. ‘I say that as sur asthe sun in the heavens once shone upon Britain and Ameriea united, sosurely is it one morn- ing to vise, shine upon, and greet ‘T Re-united States. “The British-Ame can Union," is the prediction which makes the text for a lengthy and what plausible story of the probability of such a consummation and the ad- vantages that would rosult therefrom. The principal considerations he adduiees in support of his belief epito- mized are, the confidence begotten by ry: the removal of all that constitutued the ocean a i between nations through the system of pid transportation and instantancous communication; the advantages of a rac confederation: the material benefits in- volved inveunion, and the immeasurable influence this great political unity and power could have in broadening and ele- the individual citizen of all he some- race similita once r.

Efforts are making in somo of the east- ern cities and at points elsewhere to ob- the approaching anniversary of national independe with something thanksgiv- jotie festivity that John Adams predicted it wonld obtain in the annals of the nation. Since its adoption, on the 4th day of July, 1776, by the unanimous vote of the congress of the colonies, the Declaration of Independ- ence has boon accopted by the liberty loving world as the best protest against oppression known to political history. It is eminontly fitting and desirable, therefore, that turning anni- versary of this momentous event should receive worthy commemoration, I cially appropriate it is that the anniver ary of this centennial year of jubilee should bo celebrated with all the fervor and enthusiasm that the occeasion is eal- culated to arou It is true that of re- cont years the observation of the day has serve ing and p: ovory character commensurate to. its quence. It is a day on the grandest lesson of otism ever recorded should remembered by the elder and taught to the younger generation. Itis nota day to bo honored in obsorvanes by b terous frolic and wild carousal. / respondent is apprehensive that there is tobe no proper reeognition of the anni- versary in this city and asks: *“Is it truo that the citizons of Omaha are going to allow the Fourth of July of this Colum- bian year to go by unobserved?" I thinks that to direct attention to llh- question will “rouse the patriotic en- thusiasm of our citizens” and that “throngh a mass meeting plans could bo formulated whereby Omaha would not be behind other large cities in the proper celebration of Independence day.” o suggrostions of TiE BEL'S corre- spondent are timely and ave submitted for the consideration of vatriotic citi- zens. cons which ANNEXATION OI NOTHING. According to the correspondent of the York Swun at Honolulu the men who deposed the queen of Hawaii and sot up a provisional government will have annexation or nothing, If the United States is not disposed to accept the territory which they have no right to offer, says this correspondent, they will look clsewhere. They do not want a protectorate from any source, they have never contemplated an independent republic and they will resist to the last the restoration of the monarchy. Their only and irrevocable purposo is an- nexation, and if this counwry does not want the islands the revo- lutionary party intends to offer them to some other count: This statement doos not harmonize with the reports from Honolulu of a few days ago, in which it was said that if the Cleveland administration rejected the proffer of the islands, as it secmed lLikely to do from the character of the instructions understoed to have been sent to Minister Blount, the provisional government would continue on and wait for a change of administration in thi country. It is possible that the latest report may not be entireiy groundle but undoubtedly the general disposition will be to regard it as in the nature of a bluffl. Nobody knows better than the men who are in control of affairs in Hawaii that the United States ow nexed by any other foreign power, have been told this in langua that it is impossible that they understand its meaning or doubt its sin- cerity. In view of this they are not at w1l likely to make any attempt to inte est another foreign power in the politi- cal affairs of Hawai It was reported a few days ago that the Navy department had ovdered a re- inforcement of marines to the war vessels in Hawaiian waters, which sug- gosts that the government may be an- icipating the possibility of some uttempt gn int nee, but the greater is that it simply be prepared, in the event of | a conflict of parties on the isl- ands, to properly protect Ameri- - interes There is manifestly a rowing anx to know what position the administration inten to finally take on this subjeet. We noted a few days ago a statemant from a responsible t Mr. They 0 80 pinin can mis souree v not ded what his action would be regarding annexation, anda it was | further intimated by the same authority that he was not opposed to annexing the islands if a majority of tho peoplo tl desired it.

Many republican editors openly condemn the ac- auittal of the impeached oMcials, while othors are content to rest the case wisk the people, whose verdict was long since made up. The democratic editors, of course, con demn the court for rendering a partisan de- sion, and predict a complete overthrow of the republican party as the result.
