If President Cleveland desires to compliment the fourth estate he could make no more fitting chol C. P. Huntington says that he fears nothing so mueh than that a return of good times may bring about another raiirond boom. Inasmuch as Mr. Hunt- ington made his money out of railroad booms and knows how to turn them to his own pecuniary advantage he is the last man who ought to be g id of their return. Hon. John ©. Watson of Nebraska Oity is a railrond attorney of good abil- fty. Ilis appointment as Nebraska at- torney for the Missourl Pacific will prove quite as advantageous to the ad as it must to Mr. Watson.

George G Missouri the e democrats refuse to follow mple of their llinois compatri- ots in ealling a state convention for the sole purpose of expressing themselyves upon the money question. This must be disheartening to the gr Missouri sllver lights such as Bland and Stone, The people who know them refuse to take their advice. Such being the case why should the people of other states hold the pleas of men repudiated by those who should be the first to follow them? President Cleveland's former law part- or, Mr. I'rancis Lynde Stetson, hs been once more heard from, this time from London, where he is on busin connected with the United States bond contract and incidentally dining with the American ambassador. If Mr, Cleveland were only able to ma! and all of his friends former law part- ners he would not be asked by so many employment seeking statesmen to pro. vide for them with appointment to pub- lie office under the federal government. While we do not subseril thing that Governor Altgeld says con- cerning the late supreme court decision I the Debs case, there is a good deal to every- more truth than poetry in Altgeld's declaration that appointments to places on the supreme bench have of recent years been made at the behest of corpy ration magnates. It was notc when Stanley Matthews was given the seat vacated by David Davis, and it was equally true regarding the selection of the late Justice Lamar and two or three others we might fously so Silver, we are told, is the poor man's money and f this reason demands special consideration at the bands of the government. Copper was once the poor man's money, but it ¢ xd to be such when the wage worker rose above the eondition of a serf. Let the wage worker continue to progress as he has in the past and the thue will not be far distant when gold will be the poor man's mouey. It Is the poor man's money now when he comes to buy the pecessaries of life, and It Is most em- phatically the money of the poor man who has saved up a few hundred dol- lars after many years of toil SLEADING COMPARISON: Michael G. Mulhall's contribution to the current number of the North Ameri- can Review has created a sensation among political economists as well as manifest destiny enthusiasts. Mr. Mul- hall has compounded and expounded the contents of the national census for 1800 in a most scientific manner. De- ductions therefrom are very flattering to the pride of the Ameriean people, While such gibberish as foot-tons and horse-power encrgy is not as intelligible to the average American as dollars and dimes, there is some gratitication in the fact that the comparisons made by Mr. Mulball between the condensed energy nth census ken bodily out of the ele today th | they woere salable in any shape. hall's estimate of the earning ecapacity of American wage workers is of cour equally misleading, beeause based upon the pay rolls for 1880, when wages were much higher and labor was in demand. Mr. Mulhall's concluslons there fore to be discounted by from 30 to 50 per cent. Bven then the people of the United States will have good reason to be proud of the comparison with other natlons. Uncle Sam is still rich enough to give every one of his children a farm. Mul are ERENCE. n finance min- THE PROPOSED CON The replies of Europe isters to an inquiry regarding the posi- tion of their respective governments as to another international monetary con- ference may be accepted as somewhat reassuring. The German government is not unfavorable to a conference, ad lering to the position announced by the chancellor in the Reichstag and Prussian Diet. The Spanish govern- ment is digsposed to second the wish of the United States, which means that it will send delegates to a conference if this country does. The government of the Nethe nds is favorable to a con ference 1l the Belgian government is prepared to give the matter earnest consideration. Only Russia takes no inte the matter, that country, having a gold hoard of upwards of 500,000,000, being apparently fully sat- isfied with the existing conditions. There is, indeed, nothing in the re- sponses boyond the assurance they give of the willingness of most of the gov ernments to participate in a monetary conference, but this is by no an unimportant fact, and the friends of international bimetallism are certainly warranted in deriving some encour: ment from it. Tt is something to know that Buropean governments are not indifferent to the matter, Mr. William €. Whitney, who was otary of the navy in President Cleveland’s first administration, and who is in favor of international bi- metallism, said on his veturn recently from Europe that he found the canse of bimetallism very strong in England and making headway in Germany. The testimony of so careful and intelligent an is worthy of respectful consideration, and it is supported by convinein . The addr re- cently sent to the British chancellor of the exchequer by merchants and bank- ors, expressing apprehension that any change in the mone system of Great Britain would ri in serions con- sequences to the commerce of that coun- try, was an admission that the Dbi- metallic cause is growing, while so far as Germany is concerned the proof of its progress there Is very strong. M. Whitney urged that it would be good policy for this country to put aside the silver question for a time, instead agitating for a policy which, If sueccess- ful, would be prejudicial to this coun- try, but of course there is no bility of inducing the free silverites to do this. They don't want internations bimetallism, but American silver mono- metallism. Meanwhile the outlook for an international monetary conference, perhaps during the present year, is still favorable, A VIGOROUS FOKEIGN POLICY. The chairman of the republican na- tional committee has been giving his opinion as to what the position of the party should be in 1896, and, among other things, says it should declare in favor of a orous and enlightened with respect to our lations with foreign nations. What is meant by this is implied in the de ra- tion that “the navy must be increased, the Nicaragua br it under the jurisdiction of the United States and aling stations ac auired wherever practicable.” Th suggestions, which contemplate an ag gressive on the part of the United States, to the abandonment of that conservative policy which has been observed the foundation of the government, are recelved with hearty approval in certain quarters, and there is reason to believe that a very de- termined effort will be made in the next republican national convention to com- mit the party to the idea that the time has come when the TUnited States means obserye course sinee to foreign territory, wherever it can be plausibly urged that such a policy is essential to our political and commercial advantage, There is almost unlimited scope for the operation of a policy of this kind and the first step having been taken he would be a very wise man who uld say where it would stop. The absorption of Hawail would stimulate the appetite for more outlylng territe There is a e element of our people who think Cuba ought to be brought under the jurisdiction of the United States and there ave better reasous why would not yield millions if | of anal constructed, Hawaii | should rench out and extend its power | we should absorb that island than the Sandwich group. There is other terri- tory in both the Pacific and Atlantic that might be of politic: and com mercial advantage to us and an ag gressive policy could not leave this out of nccount.

BRINGING THE TURK TO TERN The insistence by the representatives of the powers that recently submitted proposals for reforms in Armenia to the Turkish government upon an imme- diate answer will be approved by all clvilized mankind. There Is no res son why any further toleration or favor shoull Dbe shown the Porte in this matter. The out- rages committed against the Ar- menians ave been proven by evidence which the Turkish government could not deny, and the demand for v shown to be imperative. The p were submitted we 2o and an mediate answer should then insisted upon, for since that menians have been subjected to cruelties and persecutions. For land, France and Russia to permit ther delay in instituting the required re. m owas im have been time the Ar. forms would be to make themselves a party to these erimes against civiliza- tion and humanity. What ought to be done and what uitimately must be done is to take Ar- menia entirely out of the control of Turkey and either give it independence or place it under the protection of the powers, the former, of course, being the preferable plan. It is almost am ing that the Christian powers of Iu- vope allow the Armenians to remain subject to Moslem authority and liable at any tin to become the vietims of Moslem hatred and barbarity. That such a conditlon of affairs canuot last forever is certain. The reforms pro posed by the powers will work an im portant change in the condition of the unfortunate Armenians, but the remedy will not be complete, MAHA'S OPPORT NITY. The abundant rains that have blessed this state during the past week |have infused new vitality into the arteries of comme! mot fail to stove confidence in Nebraska's abilit to keep step with the gradual mareh toward prosperity which has manifested itself in the industrial of the country within the last d While we shall not be entirely out of {the woods with regard to the great staple that constitutes the backbone of Nebraska's productions before the mid- dle of September, the outlook for a full corn crop was never more favorable at this time of the year. At cents a bushel Nebraska's surplus corn product will yield $40,000,000, or $10 per capita for the entire population of the state. When fed to live stock the corn crop will double or treble in value. It re uives, therefore, no excessive stretch {of the imagination to predict a return of better times in Nebi Just as soon as the harvest is safe. As the metropolis of Nebraska, Omaha is not merely the financial cleaving I ouse for the state, but also the clear- ing house for the greater 't of all the products shipped out of the state. The bulk of all the cattle, hogs and sheep raised in Nebraska ave handled at the South Omaha stock yards and con- verted into meat products in the packing houses. A very large percentage of the hay and grain crops also find their way to market through On el cators and produce brokers. At no dis tant day Omaha will be in position to mill the bulk of the grain product of Nebraska in cereals, starch and flour- ing mills. These mills do not neces: rily depend upon the Platte river canal. | They can be operated at a profit, canal or no canal, provided the necessary capital can be found to embark in milling enterprises and provided fur- jther that a direct outlet into Omaha | from South Dakota is secured. A direct railrond to Yankton and more liberal treatment at the hands of the railronds | th re now operated exclusively in the | interest of Chicago and against Omaha | would do for the milling interests of |Omaha what the stock yards and pack ing houses of Sonth Omaha have done for the live stock interesrs. ere tide in the cities as well as of men wl the flood leads on to fortune. ‘The hopeful outlook for an early resumption or prosperity should reawaken Omaha busi ness men to their opportunities.
