The work I8 beginning early and it is to keep up at a rapid gait until Novem- ber. Town must re-elect its republican representatives in congress. The fake mill established in Omaha by the Burlington rallway organ gets its inspiration exclusively from two sterling democrats. One of these is president of the Burlington railvoad depository and the other is the chief proprietor of the South Omaha stock yards, which Lave been made the politi- cal’ annex of the railroad democratic machine operated in the interest of Majors.

THE GO' D “FSERVE GROWING According (o the latest treasury state- ment the goll reserve had inerensed to $38,000,000. Deing still $42,000,000 bhelow the amount leld under preceding ad- ministr since the resumption of specie payments for the redemption of legal tender notes and other paper obli- tions of the government. During the first twenty days of September a ¢ cided imp hent was shown in the re- ceints from enstoms, the amount ported at New York, which collects tv thirds of the customns duties paid into the treasury. beiug nearly double the amount collected during the first twenty ¥s of Angust and alse cousiderably excess of the Dis for the e pond- ing time in September of last . It is also stated-that gold is steadily reach- ing the treasury from the banks in ex- change for suwall hills, though this move ment is not on a very extensive scale. The treasury gold is now about $5.000,- 000 above the lowest point to which it declined, and this increase has taken nlace within 1v than two months, It is therefore®a very simple matter to estimate, if the improvement should continue at the rate of the last few weeks, how long it will be until the serve is fully restored. Without any drawbacks it will require abont a year and a half, and it is quite possible that the reserve will not be back to the $100,. 000,000 point during the term of this administration. This for the reason that in the first place the rate of in- crease for the last few weeks is not likely to be maintai and in the se ond place it cannot reasonably be ex peeted - that there will be no outflow of gold during the next elghteen months, The indications are that Europe is not going to buy so largely of us this year as usual. Nhe will need a less quantity of our wheat than for a number of years, and it is probable that we shall uot export there more of our provisions and dalry proilucts than In past years With inereasing imports under the new tariff it is by =2 means unlikely that s i Wige-earners, i of this 5 there 7 row SB tions e ro- 0 in v | taln a gold reserve of $100.000.000.

It was good pol; David B, il t t New York He is a conr democracy of the Kmpi present in need of men who can infuse some soirit and nerve into it. Not in a number of years has (he party been 8o démoralized and so lacking in confi. dence as it is now. When an ambitious politician like I declines a renom ination for gov; and out of a dozen men who in ordin clinstanees would jump at the prize uot one fornd veally w to aceept the nom- ination, fhe desperate condition of the party is plain, Yet the indomitable David B. into the arena without single indiention of fear or honelessness and arouses the convention to enthusiasm by a ringing appeal, which, although not quite in harmony with his senate utter. ances and therefore more or less self- stultifying, was still in its tone al spirit wl the oceasion needed. No. body knows better than Mv. Hill how serious is the situation of his party in his own state, and nobody appreciates more fully than he the importance of the stake that is to ought for in this gn. To have acknowledged any distrust or doubt would have been immediately i aid, like the thoroughly practical politician that he is, Senator Hill had only words of cheer and encouragement for his par But the rank and file of the party will hardly be affected as the convention ms to have be Ly his appeal for harmony. The thousands of men who L have suffered privazion and hardship during the past year and a bhalf through lene: for which the democratie pol fey of tariff reform is responsible, will not generally be persutded by the talk of Mr. Hill that they ought to continue to support the party that caused them loss of employment, depleted savings and suffering.

A — SYMMETRY IN THE ARMY From the riicle from the Wasliihgtor the New York Sun which we reprint serespondence of it 18 to he seen that the agitation for still further changes in the distribution and organization of the army has not yet been quieted. Not content with the recent order which abolishied some dozen of the far western posts and transterved their g the vieinity of the lavger cities, and from western departments to « n departments, speculations are being had low the ¥ ure addi recruits expense the risons to N to wost, The argnment that is new advanced is thnt what the army needs is synme- ty of organization. It pains the minor attaches of the War department at Washington (o be required to ud dress the commanding officer major general, particularly when other major genernls who lold positions. They also think it compel the two s major generals to perform dutics similar to those performed by I8 of fnferior rank Under existing arrangements, ovders go from the commanding general diveetly the department commanders, who are o oxecute them, without any inter mediary red tape. These officials think it would look much better to have them prss fivst through the hands of division omn and then down the line wherehy symmetry might e pre served. The slishiment the division organization would, of course incidentally reauire the transfer of still soldiers from the creation of a Department of the South and perhaps the aboliti western departnients. AL this is excollent enl speculation, but there are no | tical objects 1o be gained by stickling for symmetry in the army. The present | \nization seems to fulfill s purpose satistactorily. Wy not let well enough alone? a8 enst at the s of [ ns a there e tw 10 is wrong nders, the re-es of of wost to mor cast, u of one of the food for theoveti or, Secrotary of W mont must have pected numerous protests to e made atnst the gy order abandoning cer- o western posts aud b fortitied himselt against them.

Nevertheless some hardship is portended for the peop iding in the vicinity of tije wilder Indian tribes, who may take the evacuation of posts to besdp fovitation for them to instifiite outhrenks against, the defenke- less settlers, It is to be hoped such a turn of affaivs may be averted or ¢l the may soon rocallod tem porarily to deal with a serious situation. Vo troomn be Later reports from the scene of the cyclone that traversed northern Tows and southern Minnesota on Friday list prove that the fivst aceounts of the ruin wrought i its wake were by 1o menns exaggerated. The condition of the sur- viving inhabitants of the wrecked towns calls for outside assistance.
