SENATOR PEFFER and his senatorial commission of agricultural experts are coming to Nebraska to investigate the orop situation. The senator could hardly have selected a more opportune time. Crops are looking splendid and the Ne- braska zephyrs are more enthusiastic than ever this season. THE surplus in the county treasury would scarcely seem to justify any ex- tensive plans for building wings to the court house and we doubt whether the people of Douglas county are in any humor to vote bonds for a project that does not promise to increase the prop- erty values of this count IF, AS George Alfrea Townsend re- cently said, old ideas must be displaced by new ones in future political cam- paigns, how is the country to be recon- ciled over the discussion of the inoome tax, state bank currenc, xes on tea and coffoe and free whisky and tobacco?

The Nicaraguan canal is the greatest enginecring enterprise of modern times, and its completion will mecessitato a complicte rearrangement of the commercial pathways of the world. {Its influence on commerco will be even more marked than the completion of the BSuez canal. To the United States the canal will be of vital importance, and this country cannot consent to any for- eigh interference with the enterprise. sts. | congress will meot | all THE SITUATION INPROVING Advieos from all quarters are to the offect that the financial situation fe im- prov and while the rvestoration of confidence cannot oxpeeted to come at onco there are some sub. tial 1 ons for believing that mditions continue to grow botter. The fact that within the next three months with the special ohjeot of ng whatean bo done to reliave the financial situation is admitted on all hands to have a somewhat reassuring Of course there is un as to what congress may do.

There are several other circumstances which have contributed to an improved feeling, among them a decline in the number of commerc failures durin the past week and an inereasod fore demand for grain. The fall in the pr of wheat seems to have made the oppor- tunity that foroign morchants were w ingr for and they are sald to have nego! ated for many millions of bushels, which will be shipped as as tho facilities for doing will porm Another important the growing conviction that the worst has been experienced, and while busi- ness has received a shock it has on the whoio not been so severe as was appre- hended. he natural conelusion from this is that in the main the business of the country is in a healthy condition and that really good has been done in the weeding out of weak. mismanaged and inflated enterprises. Some such, doubtless, there are still, but legitimato enterprises are safer for the wining out of those that have been extinguished. There is reported, also, as having a favorablo tendency, urning feeling abroad favorable to American securities. This is not very pronounced, but any change in this direction must have a reassuring influence. As already remarkedyit is not to be expected that thero will be an immedi o restoration of e« )nfi('l‘ll(, from a condition of ¢ such as that the country isexperiencing must be slow and gradual. Frightened capital does not casily gain its equanimity. The rule in financial cireles is likely to be for some time one of more thun ordinary cantion and conservatism, and perhaps it is a very good rule, since it is prob- able that all the weak, inismanaged and unduly extended concerns have not been eliminated from tke business of the country. But it is reasomably cer- tain that the worst of them have been, and while the results are bad enough they havo been less disastrous than was feared. So far as the resources of the country are concerned they remain unimpaired. The currency of the country has not de- clined in amount or depreciated in pur- chasing power. There has simply been a general contraction of credits, which will be relieved with returning confi dence. There seems to be a brighten- ing outlook for every legitimate and well estublished business. INVESTIGATING THE RAILROADS. The federal grand jury at Chicago has begun an investigation of railroad man- agement which promises to be the most thorough cver undertaken by the Tnter- state Commerce commission. It is undeor y will extend 10 pa and that it has been instituted only after a very careful and diligent study of the situation by the commissioners and At- torney General Olney. It is said also that a similar investigation has been conducted in another jurisdiction, and indictments have been returned against prominent railroad men. A larg numb of rai officials and tho chairmen of several traffic and = passenger asscciations have been summoned to appear before the grand jury. It appears t the com- mission has of late received many com- plaints of both passenger and freight diseriminations, which it has been quictly looking into, with the vesult of instituting these procecding 1t is eaid that the attorne al has deter- wmined that the investigation shall bo full and thorough, and the suddennosy with which railread officials were ap- prised of it is reported to have caused no little constornation. It would scem from these statements that at last the interstate has gone about tho its duty in a ises somo practieal results, and tho pub will await the outcome of the investigation with very great intov- est. Hitherto the practice of tl wmission bas secemed shaped to give tho railrcads the greatest possible oppor- tunity to escape respensibility under the law, and it is well known that they have invaviably boen ableto ao this. Reing amply warned of impending daa- ing, they were enabled to make all neces: pr tions to avert it. It is, thovefore, gratifying to know that in the proceedings now bagun a proper and necessary has been ob- servaed by the ¢ ission, so that if it has ¢ gainst the roads there will be a botter chanee of establish thom, No one ought to be better informod than Attorney General Oluey as to how to cond ains covpor tions in order to make an investiga- tion thorough, and from the reports it would appear that ho has gone to work according to his best knowledge and with a determination to make the inquiry as complete as possible, If this be done there is roason to ex- )nwl that a rumber of railroad officials us parts of the country will be required t) suffet: the pains and penal- ties of the law thoy have violated. That there has been widespread di gard of the provisions of the interstate commerce act does not admis of a doubt. Itis perhaps not too much to say that there is not a railvoad in the country which does not persistently violate the law in both freight and passenger dis- erimination, and the immunity they have enjoyed has rendered some of the more commission performance of that prom- some seerosy a tendency to | | on state bank issuc THE OMAHA UESDAY, DAILY BEE: rockloss managers or subsrdinate offi ‘ of the school hoal in order to save an olals hold in violating the law. yoars or more thore has been prac tically no effort made to enforce the in , and with re provi for tion it he For this the » Measuro responsi- decisions which powers of the on remedied by which were in- fons » in a large t the tly curtailed the but this has be nts to the ) give the commission all the authority necessary toa thorough in- {on, and which it is will prove sufficient.

There are hundreds of thousands of democrats in the eastern, middle and western states who believe that it would be most unwise to repeal the 10 per cent tax on state bank issuesif the effect would bo to restore that currency, and no ra- tional man ean doubt that such would be the effect. Nearly the entire suppors of the proposal to from the south, where 1t is advoc : nearly every leading paper and one or twao states have adopted legislation pro- viding for a state bank currency in the event of the tax being repealed. It is worth while to remark, also, that the most vigorous advocacy of repeal comes from states which have not been solie- itous in the past to maintain their finan- cial integrity and whose sccurities donot now stand highest in the market. While there is uncertainty as to what the next congress may do regarding this tax, and also as to whether the president is in favor of ropeal or hostiloto it, um-.- m to believe that the chances are ¢ against the tax being x-vp«mlml. It has been said that the plank in the democratic national platform demand- ing the repeal of the tax was submitted to Mr. Cleveland before being intro- duced and rveccived his approval. This is questionable, but whatever may have been the first impressions of the presi- dent on this question it is entirely within the probabilities that more thor- ough investigation may have convinced him that it would not be well either for thematerial interests of the country or the welfare of his party to open the way for a flood of state bank currency, which could not be maintained at uniform value, and from the inevitable deprecia- tion of a large part of which all inter- ests would suffer. Of courss there will be an effort made in the next congress to carry out the demand of the platform of the dominant party and it may be ex- pected to receive a considerable support, but this will bo chiefly made up of tho representatives of the southern states, and thero would scem to be hardly a possibility that a bill conld pass either house of congress to repeal the tax on state bank issues. Such a measure would of eourse encounter the opposition of the solid republican vote, and this, with the democratic opposition, would be sufficient to defeat it. Even if repeal should be favored by the administration it is very questionable whether it (,uuld suceeed. 'here does not appear to be, thn‘,r(_\» fore, any very substantial reasons for ap- prehending the vepeal of the 10 per cent tax on state bank issues by the next congress, so that the Ohio republicans are not likely to find this question par- ticularly ser able to them as a cam- paign It is probable that their opponents will ignore it in their plat- form and in the canvass, ISSt issue, WHO IS ENTITLED T0 THE INTEREST? At the beginning of the present month there was over $300,000 of school money in the hands of the city treas- urer. This money is not lying dead in tho vaults of the eity hall, but is doubt- less earning interest in the city treas- urer's bank, or some other bank, Right- fully and legally every penny of interest derived from the school fund belongs to the school fund, and should be accounted for by the treasuver. But Mr. Bolin ventures to inform the school board that he has tak al advice regarding the school fund and his lawyers have dis- oovered technical flaws in the law which, in their judgment, prevent the board from earrying out the provisions of the charter that require the tren urer to ce surplus public funds on deposit in designated banks und turn the interest paid by the banks to tho eredit of the fund from which it was [t w, we cannot comprehend why M Bolln should find it ne sary to seek adviee outside of the legal department of the why he should seek to turn to his own adventage technical de- fects, if any d) exist. Mr. Bolln is drawing £0,000 a year as city treasuver, and the city pays all the for running his oftice, This is year more than the state tr ives for his serviee It 36,000 a year enough to command My, Bolln's services then he should not have aceepted the office, It was well understood change was made from sommissions on collections to $6,000 a year that the object was to do away with speculating in public funds on the part of the city treasurer, and give the city the benefit of the intercst. As a matter «f law no treasurer has over drawn a penny of interest legally, and if the Wisconsin precedent were followed up in Nebraska the city and county as well as the state could recover hundreds of thousands of dollars in back interest. In must be borne in mind that the city treasurer was made ex-officio treasurer city, or when the 400 & year and - | nically defective | fied 1f not compelled to take steps for believed | | board will oxten salary, fing Mr, Wolln seoms dis | posed to ignore that fact and has, in ad- Qition to the $400 a month ealary, had the use of the sehool money as an addi- | tional perquisite., This is & manifest | violation of the spirit if not the let of | the law. The Board of Education can no longer pormit this abuse to continue, Even if the law recently passed is tech- the board will bo justi- of interest on tho funds which the treasurer has handled, unless he voluntarily yields to the demand | mada by the board. In doing the commit no injustice to Mr. Bolln, but simply protect the interests of the taxpayers and patrons of the schools. the recove THE possibility that a new product may be advantageously added to the agricultural list is that should attract the attention of experimental stations and agricultural institutions in the west. Canaigre is a plant with a root resembling the sweet potato in shade and dimensions, and contains tannie acid in large quantities. It is indigenous to parts of New Mexico, Texas, Arizona, southern California and some other arid regions. The root has been found so valuable for the us of tanners that it is thought highly probable it may become a general sub- stitute for bark, which annually be- comes searcor and consequently more oxpensive. Tanners who discovered the value of canaigre have since had forces of men digging the plant in its wild state. This has led to extensive ex- periments at its cultivation in New Mexico. The Irrigation Age says that one of the largest European firms that have been dealing in the root have already planted 320 acres of it in the Pecos valley, and predicts that within another ix months at least 2 ,000 acres of canaigre will be grown in that valley alone. At 310 per ton the better tracts of wild canaigre yield from $100 to $200 per ton, and it has been shown that this yield of tenor twenty tons to the acre can be approximately doubled by proper cultivation and irrigation. In- vestigation and experiment might dem- onstrate that the cultivation of this valuable evop might be localized in other arid regions of the west. At any rate the attempt is worth trying. one The Crop Prospect. New ¥ork Times. Very little of the last crop remains in farmer’'s hands, On the whole, therefore, the crop _outlook is- pretty good. The only dark spot is the reduction of the yield of winter wheat, but the effect of the loss is counteracted in_parc by the fact that the visible supply of wheat is grenter by about 40,000,000 bushels than it was a year ago. oy pgse s Good Quatities of Kicklag.

With singular unanim- ity, however, the masses of the people seem to hold the contrary viow, and the peoplo must be regarded as the court of iast appeal in the years to come. Chadron Citizen: The verdict generally is that the state officials ave either guilty of looting the state tre: or were very cire- less in looking afte s connected with their several offices, There is 1o question but that the stats ofteh been compelled to pay outrageous prices for supplies pur- chasca for the different stato institutions, and the trial just had, while not convicting anyoue, will have a tendeney to put a stop to agreat deal of the bavefaced robbery that has been going on. Stuart Ledger: The decision is prise. 1t is to be hoped that the they have had will do them good as well as other public servants, They are not ex- onerated from blame, though acquitted by the court, i s of a large per cent of the voters of Nebraska. It is appareut that tho affairs of the state were not conducted in the manner a s ful busin man_does his own affairs. State oRicials should at least good, ordinary business men and they should conduct the affairs of their offices with the same tact and interest ¢ would their own private business. Norfolk Journal: The decision, although a divided one, and an acquittal ou techni grounds by a majority of the court, will be en by the people of Nebraska as in effect a condemnation of the negligent acts of the ofticers who have so narrowly escaped the righteous punishment they should have re- ceived. Perhaps it was unnccessary for the court to pass sentence of exclusion from office holding for all time to come, for even if they continue to hold on to the positions they have been permitted to retain in dis- grace there ought never to be a time when their offense will be coudoned by the people by an election to any ofice, however insig- nificant. Tobias Tribune: Reviewing the whole proceedings from its inception down to and including the verdict of the court, it gives little cause for rejoicing, especially in the nks of the republican varty. The record is not very creditable to the ofiivers who have accepted the trust and confidence of a great party, for although acquitted, their carclessness and loose methods of doing business, and the frauds and corruption growing out of it, not only throws discredit upon themselves, but the party to whom thoy owe their existence. The republicans of Nebraska do not countenance or_condone such conduct on the part of their ofiicers and it 15 with a clouded face that they turn the soiled leaf. Niobrara Pioncer: Perhaps the republic: party can combine with democracy to lift it from disgrace. It is not the purpose of the Pioneer to speak illof the majority of the supreme court in degiding the impeichment cases. But Nebraska is certainly in the hands of the devil when two men of a sacred office decide that the three state officers did their duty suffciertly to retain them in power. Last week this journal criticised Mr. Rosewater for meddling with the supreme court in its decision. But this week it is sincerely of the opinion that Mr. Rosewater knew what he was driving at. the people ever wanted to do their duty they should pegin this fall to the end that Justice Maxwell be retained. The Pioneer has heml disposed to believe him too ag term. But the danger of oxperi with tritlers is such that Maxwell see only availabic candidate unless Judge Reese can be sccured and positively elected, It is not so much a matter of party politics as availability; but it takes politics to make good that availability not a sur- cking up Democratic Opinions.
