This means that a corn is assured. Reports hitherto made have been most choering in this respect, and now that the worst dry spell of the summer has been ended in vefreshing rains bofore any perma- nent damage resulted, the farmers may propare their cribs to house a bountiful yield. Reports are also coming of grat- ifying harvests of small grains. In Adams county one man threshed the fall wheat cut from a thirty-acre field last week, and the yield was 1,020 bushels, or thirty-four bushels to the acre. At the present low prices, this singlo field’s viold is worth $632.40, erop nnks whic cial stross did have yielded to the finan- not fail.

It s ble that at the worst not move than one-third of the banks that have closed their doors within the last two or throe months will turn out to be absolute fail- ures,and there will be comparatively few cases in which depositors will be large losers. Of course the notes of all these banks aro jJust as securo now as when thoy were issued—a feature of the na- tional banking systom which, if gon- erally known, is not so well approciated as it should be. Under theold state bank currency system the case was quite ¢ ferent. The holder of a state bank note could never be entirely sure of gettir its face value and when the bank failed that put an end to its notes, except in rave cases where they were redeemed at asmull percentage of their face value, but such instances were r: indeed. The national bank note is not affected to the sli as socu ro- are proba ms itest extent by the suspension or failure of the bank that issues it.

This is cortainly reas- suring and the care and caution which have enabled the banks to make such a showing is to be commended, but it may not be out of place in this connection to observe that there is anger of the s0me ( banks carrying their conser tism to such an extromo th sound and legitimate business in- terests will suffer. There is a manifest tendency to do this which it would not be wise to encourage. The banks should not only now, but at all times, refuse to lend their support to uncertain or speculative undertakings, but it ir a great mistake to withhold aid from established enterprises that are on a sound basi CLOTURE IN THE SENATE, 1t is reported that Mr. Cleveland is urging upon democratic senators who agreo with him on the financial question the necessity of adopting some cloture rule which will enable the majority in the senate to reach a vote on questions within'a reasonable time, It has been the ruleof the senato since the begin- ning of the government to place no restriction upon debate. A before that body may be discuss minably and it is such discussion be stri subject matter, nor re question »d int ry that ly confined to the there any rule not necess; is limiting the number of times which a senator ma question. o y address the Senate onany uch restrictions would of o in time exhaust the powers of an obstructive minority to prevent action, but as they do notexist such a minor- ity, if it have the endurance, may talk a question to death, as has been done often in the senate This principlo of unrestricted dobate, which has always been maintained by the scnate, itis said the president ro. gards as being the greatest obstacle in the way of a speedy repeal of the silver purchasa law, and it is certainly an ob- stacle of no small proportions, Having this to stand upon the free silver senators may talk a yoar if they ave dis- posed to, or through both sessions of the Iifty-third congress, in opposition to a measure repealing the Sherman act. Tho two Nevada scnators, Jones and Stewart, would be good for at least a of speeches each, and doubtless the Colorado senators, Tellor and Wol- cott, conld be counted upon tor as many The senators from the other sil- vor states would do their leval best to vival those from Nevada and Colorado, while Peffer of Kansas and Allen of Ne- braska would help to swell tho free sil- ver chorus as often and as voluminously as possible, It is easy to see, therefore, that & small minority of determined sen- ators may with the right of unrestricted debate utterly defy and eventually defeat the majority simply by talking, and as to the free silver men in the senate it is by no means cortain that they are in a minority, On the contrary, it is prob- able that when the time comes for them to develop their strength it will be found that they constitute a majority, In any event it is not likely that the senate will depart from a rule which it has always observed and which has grown to be regarded as a distinguishing and highly important characteristic of seore more. that body. Attempts to establish cloture in the senate have been made in the past, notably ono dur- ing the session of the Fifty-first congress, when the republican majority desired to pass the federal elections bill, but such attempts have met with littlo support. The last attempt was vigor- ously fought by the democrats, and such of them as made & record at that time the original systems, by which the prop- orty of railways was in the same manner and by the same bodies as the property of private individuals is as- assessed sossed, have been found to be unsatis- factory. The pernicious influence ex- erted by theso great - corporations served to shift upon others the burdens which in justico they ought to have borne. To rem- edy these defects new legislation has been enacted in many states providing for soparate nssessments of railway property by state boards who are sup- posed to be removed from the domina- tion of the railway corporations. While improvement has been noted under the new regime, the railways have not ceased to employ the same methods as formerly in order to escape taxation. In some seetions they have succeoded in sceuring control of the state boards, in others they have fought the assessments inch by inch through the courts. In Kansas they are at the present moment making a legal contest against the new valuation. In Indiana they are gather- ing strength for a supreme struggle this fall. The situation in Indiana, as described by a correspondent of the Chicago Herald, s substantially this: Up to 1890 the property of the thirty-five rail- rouds having trackago within that state was assessed at less than 370,000,000, A new tax law and 4 new assessing board the following year brought on a change that was no less than a veritable revolu- tion. The valuation of the railroad property was raised to $160,809,000, and kept at that figure for 1892, The rail- roads protested. They went'to law and the ultimate d ion of the United States supreme court is not expected until the coming October term. The taxing officials, however, have taken the statements of the railroads and have constructed from them some very in- teresting returns to support their contention that the railroads have at last been put upon a proper and just taxing basis. They find that the mileage within Indiana of the roads traversing that state constitutes 37.7 per cent of the entire mile They, therefore, assume that the carnings within the state Lear the same ratio to the tc carnings and find the surplus carnings have been as follows: 18 20,5115 1890, $35,280,923; 1891, $56, 3,626, 31 other words, five In profits would have equaled the entire 37 years valuation sessed before the new law went into effect. In’ these figures they find the justification of the increase of 150 per cent in the assessment of 1800 over 1889, The mothods employed by the rail- roads in Indiana in fighting the pay- ment of taxes do not differ from those that have been universally witnossed. The plea of poverty has always been a standing argument, but it had little weight bofore the Indiana board. 1If it is raised again this year the railway officials will have their attitude toward the World's fair passenger traflic hurled back at them. They prodicted that the new law would compel them to reduce their working foree and they inveigled their employes into joining in a formal protest that its enforeement meant idlo- ness and poverty to them. b these threats were groundless was soon proven when the law went into effect without causing the discharge of a singlo employe. Tt seems that the time has come when the thread-bare compluints of the railway officials have ccased to be a source of alarm to honest public ofticers, When the railroads learn that theiv persistent efforts to evado taxes do nothing but draw upon them a greater persistence of the people, they may possibly conclude that the wisest plan is to bear a fair share of the public burdens and that their profits lio in incrcased business rather than in evading just taxation, TaE people of Cuba, according to what appears to bo good authority, do not de- sive independence of Spain nor annexa- tion to the United s, but merely o fuir measure of home rule, and this has been promised by the Spanish govern- ment. It may be that a majority of the Cuban people do not want to be od from Spain, but if home rule is anted them it will undoubtedly be the first step leading to ultimate indepen- dence, and if that be attained then would arise the question of annexa- tion to this country, with powerful influences favoring it. Thero is & strong sentiment in this country that Cuba ought to bo and ultimately must boa part of the United States, but it is kept in vopression for obvious reasons, An movement hore to promote annexation would bo regarded by Spain as un- friendly. But Cuban independence would be immediately followed by an American movement in behalf of annex- ation that ght prove to be irresisti- ble. Spain is growing weakor year by year, and it would that the time cannot be remote when she will bo too decrepid to retain nold upon her most valuable colonial possession, should soom THE unenviable reputation which the people of Denver have been gaining for themselve by their demonstrations upon the silver will not im- proved by the most recent example of theirdack of respect for law.

NOTHING would suit the people of Omaha better than w visit from the supervising architoct of the treasury. A personal inquiry into the needs of the local postoffice, and a view of the loca- tion for the new federal building, ought togive him an adequate idea of the facilities requived. In cass M, O'Rourke decides to come to this eity, nothing should be omitted that is caleu- latod to assist him in effecting the pure pose of his visit. A GREAT many people in Nebraska would be pleased to know the nature of the private agreement by which W. H. Dorgan holds the prison contract. Others would like to kuow the terms of the agreement between Dorgan and the State Board of Public Lands and Build- ings by which he is permitted to operato the contract without putting up the bond required by the statutes, "HERE is something a little suspicious about the complaints of the insufliciency of the appropriations for the support of the state institutions made by the islature. The complaints come only from the men who have always stood as the apologists or the defendoers of the vings which have long preyed upon the state legislature. Tn the meantime, none of the state institutions have. yet been closed up. THE decision of the federal court upon the proceedings for an injunction ro- straining the State Board of Trans portation from roducing froight r under the maxima fixed by the new law is awaited with unusnal interest by per- sons in all parts of the state. It is the commencement of a legal fight which will end either in. the overthrow of the law or in its complete vindieation. THE agrecment reached by the wests ern railvoads upon the question of excur- sion rates to the World's fair auring the month of August will reduce still fur- ther the rates for passengers travel- ing from Omaha to Chicago.

Very fow persons who have observed the course of the financial disturbance which has diminished values to the amount of hun- dreds of millions, have looked deep enough into causes to discover that the holders of securities in which this shrink age has taken place brought it about themselves in order w got b ver cent for money. The reason why castern people have not thought of this is probably because they are so near the cea- ter of disturbance that thoy are unablo to get the situation in perspective, conse- quentiy cannot discern causes so_accurately as the clear-sighted statesmenwhose lives have been spent in the midst of people who produce silver which they know is worth £1.20 an ounce and are obliged to sell it for 0cents.
