The trade clo- embarrass- ing fact that the president does not sym- patiize with the platfc d of protection as unconstitutio will not lend his influenes t tion of the policy ander which A industrios have been promoted for mo than thirty years. The democratic hotheads of the south are somowhat emburrassed because tho president thinksAt unwise to press a partisan issue upon the attention of o financiai problem of supremo tance awaits solution, though they have determined to do this. In a loss iportant matter the action of Mr. Cleveland appears to threaten embarrassment to the democracy in some quarters. He has appointed sevoral colored men to diplomatic and consular positions, and that, too, in white coun- tries. One of these is named as minister to Bolivia, another nouncement and ythe destrne- ngress when a mpor- as consul at Santos, zil, and a third as consul at Calais, France, 1t not objected that these colored men are incompetent, but down in Georgia, and very likely clsewhore in the uth, it is felt that the president has gone altogether too far in the direc- tion of wiping out the coloe line, so far as holding office is concorned, by appointing negroes to represent government in white countries, ferring to the appointment of Mr. Tay lory 2 colored citizen of Kansas City and alawyer, as minister to Bolivia, the Atlanta Constitution rogards it as o mat- ter of the importance because it social oquality under the auspic the federal government That further says of these pomntments that “‘they may cause the democrats considerable embarrassment in ce n loralities,” and it also marks: I'hie whole businessis wonder- fully suggestive, and thoughtful demo- crats will 1ook forward to the next cam- paign with doubt and apprehen Yet the democratic party has been for years telling the colored man, when bid- ding for his vote, that his chances of poli- tical preferment would bo greatly im- proved by identifying himself with that party, he had never reccived fair consic n us a vepublican, and that his highest duty to himself was toget out of the republican party and cast his lot with democracy.

Lverybody, it has been supposed, understood that the pur- pose in coupling a reciprocity clanse with the new tariff law wus to increa: our exports to other countrics with which we might enter into such an agreement by securing discriminating concessions, we in return specially fay- oring the products of those countries, If Cuban sugar were to come into the Amorican market free of duty we asked that the tariff there be so reduced to certain of our products that we should enjoy an advantage in competition with other countries. But thechicf of the bureau of statistics hus discovered that the object of this logis- lation was further to discourage im- ports, in the supposition that some nations would refuse to avail themselyes of its privilegoes. The absurdity of this view is so ious that it does not merit consideration. Equally ridiculous is the idea of Mr, Ford thut there was any force connected with this policy. The invitation to enter into closer com- mercial relations with the United States was extended to all Awmerican countries and & very earnest effort was made to induce them to do so. True the pres- ident authorized, after a | certain time and in his discretion, to disallow to countries not accepting reciprocity the advantages enjoyed by countries which did accept our inyita- tion, and under this authority Colombig, Venezuela and Hayti were excluded from the special benefits conferred by reciprocity, By this action the imports from those countries was somewhut re- duced, but such a course was clonrly necessary in justice to the countrios which made reciprocity agreements with us. The countries that gave us special advantage in their markets for equally desirable beuefits in ours we were bound to protect, aud we probably could not have made a single agreement without this provision, but manifestly there is nothing iu the uature of force about it The 1 on sound to rnments of the spocial privi- far as we s complained of the s seems havo beon 1 from ¢ o of them, so ywhment of st some other held a untries with ments, Inthe case of flour under ree- formerly Spain eontrolled nearly all . the now is of American of e burean wlatuffs and rivan production poly in the ¢ uti articles of Am o reciprocity ag s disprove this or o exports od five-fold und s of whereas Cuban that go Our tour s thore xport other articl lly our LSa mater] in 211, the und with other » satisfactory as was th duo to im- <pinined and does not in from the wisdom ciproeity prin- sgate results the rely beneficial to the silarly 8o to the agri- which it was expected chicfly to benefit.

The present congress undoubtedly will pass legislation intended for the better security of depositors in national banks by providing a more adeguate punish- ment than is preseribed by existing law for embozzlement by divectors, ofticers, or of national banks. measures relating to this matter hav JDeen introduced, one of them by Repro- ative This bill mukes it u neanor for any officer or agent of k to embezzle, abstract will- fully misapply any of the moneys. funds or eredits of the assciation and pro- vides that the penalty on conviction shall be iwprisonment, the minimum vm being five years if the sum o bezzled is 1oss than $10,000 and the max mum term fo ¥ if the ox- ceed $25,000. Persons arcested under the act shall recoive no different treat- ment or privileges while in custody be fore or after eonviction than is accorded to persons in custrdy for violation of other laws of the United State: It will be vory genarally agreed that more stringent legislation than we now have for the punishment of embezzling bank offici ble. The history of national bank failures furnishes a r ble record of raseality, and while it is not to be doubted that the propor- tion of honest men engaged in banking is as great as in any other business, the opportunity and the temptation to take or to misapply the money of other peo- ple are ¢ in this cluss of business than in any other. It is this that m id for the strongest possible safozuards that the law can pro- vide. Men who with studied delibera- tion and the most unserupulous in- genuity botray the confidence reposed in them and by their villainy bring ruin to had teusted them desery vere punishment, and what would be practically a life sentonce to a bank looter, taking the maximum te bro- vided for by the Bryan bill, would be none too havsh. That would have a doterrent influenco probable, and together with a stricter stem of examinations, which is prom- ised, there would be to expect fewer failures of national banks due to lity of ofiicials, aided by the carelessness or overconfidence of dire reci treaty with | initial countries y not been ily e r the sonndness of I'ak tl and intende tudo policy has boen ssted are agents Bryan. sum uls is de, such legislation reason the rases tors, Honest bankers will not object to such legislation. Caveful themselves to pre toet their patrons to the fullest extent, they will find no fault with the safe ards intended to secure a like measure of care and integrity on the part of others, Besides, whatever inereases the seeurity of depositors must tend to also iner e the confidence of the publie in the banks, and it is to be preswned that everybody cngaged in banking desires this. Legislation of the kind proposed has beon strongly suggested by the numerous eases of wholesale embezzle- ment by bank oflicials during the pust year or two for which the punishment provided by existing law is regarded as inadeuunt OMAHA R What was said on the subject of Omaha real estate by _ex-Governor Saunders at the Commercial club banguet desorves a wide eireulation among all who ave in- torested in Omuha's prosperity. The sentiments wossed should be brought home to every resident of the city, pu ticularly to those who are wont to grum- ble because we are not in the midst of a perpetual boom, The subject may be dry, but it is, nevertheless, a very vital one and one that merits serious atten- tion. When we hear so much of real estate stagnation we are always referred to the time of most active real estato specula- tion, Instead of making a comps of two dierent periods, just compare Omaha with other population ceaters which are subject to similar conditions. If Omaha is dull, other places are duller, If people arve dissatisfied with Omaha, wh can they do better or even as well? Watch the fortunes of the few who after having made their money in this city have been lured off by town loy booms in other parts of the country, and whether 1t were Florida, Texas or Cali- fornia, they will be found to be in a worse situation than those who have re- mained in Omaha, sticking their faith in Omaha real estate, Omaha 15 not wlone in having had suc- cessive periods of good and dull times, But it has had the great advantage of # stoady growth.
