THE OMAHA DAILY BISMARCK IS BACK!

One Grand Ovation. From Friedrichsrub to Berlin shere was a ser ovations to Bismarck at eve ry station past which his train to the city where the greatest tr his career had been achieved. Beginuing with the episode of sentation of flowers by the young w the town where Bismarck fng with large and cheering assemblages along the eatire route to Berlin, and culminatiog in the grand receptica by the Immense multitude in the al. the day was one which must have gratified the exchancellor to his heart's content, fully convinced him of his unshaken upon the 1 beloved people It was a fitti of his declining days and to the number of wonderful popular demo ns which have held during his illustrious career 1n his pecial hooor. In spite of all that has been said and done within the vast few years, showed the aged public servant that his nameand fame were dear to the hearts of his fellow citizens, and that in Berlin which owes so muct r greatness to hir there were none who could outrival him in the estimation of its mhabitants nor rob him of their unbounded love. The emperor, by the graciousness of his reception 1o Bismarci, aroused unbounded eathusinsm, and after fheir meeling every- wherever William abpeared ‘the shouts of approval and zood v:ill were deafening. 1is Effect on the German Peopie. The widespread effect of the reconciliation cannot be doubted. Its full cfect eannot at the present time be appreviated. It cer- tainly has donea vast deul towards the unity and strength of the empire. but Bis- marck’s age precludes the likelitood of any further active participacion by bim in man politics, and perhaps the most I able explanation that has ye been given for the emperor’s initiative in restoring the friendliest relations between himseif and Bismarck is that Germany's ruler recog- pized the fact that Bismarci’s days are numbered, and he has eanceiled the past, with all its bitter fecling, beforeit is too late. Cl acing each othe rmth, whose si s of phs of the pre- nen resides, continu- id long been es- cellor von Caprivi has kept himseif well in the backeround during this recep- tion, but from all that ean now be observed the event must surely strengthen his tion. Those who have been most loualy clamoring for his downfall are disconcerted, and what is left of the opposition to Ca- privi seems so inconsiderable as hardly ment serious consideration. posi o D Hls COMING, Phiezmatic Berlinese Kapturonsly Welcome the Man of Blood and Iron.

Thede- frienry In thE reveunues for the month to uummw Mills of Texas to a place as a member of the senate commitiee on finance, to continne during the absence of Senitor McPher- son, -has occasioned some comment. Diligent inquiry fails to develop that there was any _motive for the charge except that found in Mr. Me- Pherson's enforced ansence on_account_ of his heaith. Thers is a probability that, Mc- Pherson’s absence bemz prolonsed. and as the committee is likely to be called’ upon to wake up very acducus duties in connection with the tariff bill and the finances of the country, it was thought wise to fill the com- mittee’s ranks, and. Senator Mils was se- lected because of his. fan v with th subjects to be considered torough many years experience on the ways and meanis Commitiee in the house. Repuslicans are quite concerned over the change, as they regard Mr. Mills more pronounced leaning toward free trade than Mr. Pherson. The fact is also noted that Senator Vance is absent from the city on account of his health, which has been so poor asto pre- clude his attendunce upon the sessions of the senute and the meeting of the committee during the greater part c congress, It is thought probable it may be necessary to ob- tain a substitute for him.
