Louls people now that the man-of-war named after thelr city has been safely started on its way fo the great naval review at Kiel. The suc- cess of the naval demonstration un- questionably depends upon the appear- ance of the St. Louis. Tt seems that the impending departure of Mrs. Cleveland for her summer res dence has been daily annonnced for sev- eral weeks, at any rate. Now that she has actually departed from Washington the Washington correspondents will have an opportunity to keep guessing for a while on her probable return. The Bee has repentedly asserted that the train service in and out of Omaha afforded by the various railronds cen- tering here could only be improved by vigorous protests on the part of the Board of Trade and Commercial club. But these organizations have done lit- tle or nothing. Do they, too, wear the brass collar that adorns the neck of the rebate shipper In the abstract the resolution of the elty attorney looking to possession of the water works by the city Is not far out of the way. Suppose, however, th city should be compelled to take the | water works this year under appraise ment, how could it pay for the property ?

The last con but a proposal to do the same with beer met with small support although it was urged that an additional x of half a dollar a barrel on beer would not affect the consumers of that beverage | the politicians were not willing to run the risk of antagonizing the large hrew ing interest of the country, which Is ible of exerting a great deal of in fluence. It is hardly probable that a proposition to tax beer, which Is protty sure to he made, will command greater favor in the next congre the s than in last one. Another proposal is to restor ten and eoffee to the dutiable list, plae- ing such a moderate duty on these arti- cles as it is believed would not bear seriously upon consumors, It is esti- ed that from 5,000,000 to £230,000, 000 annually conld be raised from these sources, and it is urged m advocacy of a duty on tea that it wonld tend to giv American consumers a better article than they now t. Importers say that now this country s the dumpin eround for the poorest quality of unsalable elsewhere, and they pre to think that a duty would remedy this, or at any rate greatly rveduce the amount of such t coming here. But to put coffee and tea on the dutiable list would be an assault on the “free breakfast table” which would encounter a very formidable opposition, so that it is very doubtful whether a proposal of this kind would be seriously entertained by cor It neither of these plans for raising shall be found practi cable the only other thing to be done is to revise the present taviff law in the divection of hizher dutics on certain articles and the transfer of other arti- cles from the free to the dutiable list. But will the next congress make such a revision, and if it should do so, would Mr. Cleveland approve it? That the t house of representatives, with its ge republican majority, will propose changes in the taviff law with a view to in the of the govern ment is to be expected, but the repab- licans will not have control of the te. It is possible that a few con- itive democrats in the latter hody, like Gorman, Brice, Murphy and Smith, would join with the republicans in in creasing certain duties, but it does not seem at all probable that any measure for this purpose could pass the senate, and if it should the president would be compelled, in order to avold self-stulti- fication, to veto it. “There is thus presented a very serious dilemma, out of which may come trouble and embarrassment for the treasury quite as great as it has experi- enced during the last two years.

The Cordage trust is again in trouble, Some two years ago, after a big specula- tion in the stock, which carried it up to an extraordinary price, the discovery was made that the trust was not solvent and it passed into the hands of celvers, Subsequently it was reorgan- ized and for a year and a half had been carrying on business upon an appar- ently sound basis, though as now ap- pears it has been all the time practically insolvent. A few days ago the corpori- tion again passed into the hands of re- ceivers, on an application which de- clared that it had defaulted in the | ment of $10,000 and was not able meet its obligations. The president s vice president of the company made davits acknowledging the insolvency the corporation. It Is now proposed to again reorganize, or in other words to put the trust in a shape to repeat the operations by which it has for a number of years been defrauding the public for the benefit of the sharps and sharks who manage it. The proposition for r organization is very plausible in its terms, as all such schemes are, but noth- ing is more certain than that the trust, when again operated by the men who have twice manipnlated it into insol- and who are pretty sure to again control it, will resume the former policy ices. past two years lave given the monopolistic combinations a pretty hard xperience, but now that business is reviving they are preparing for mare J. 8.

There is no ambiguity about the plat form adopted by the republicans of Ken- | tucky. Its declarations are not lacking in either clearness or force.

IRVINE. OMAHA, June 6—To the Editor of The Dee: T regret exceedingly that The Bee has | felt called upon to attack the character of Rev. Alex F. Irvine without making the in- vestigation T requested, and after being called upon by such representative citizens as Willlam Fleming, W. H. Alexander and F. W. Ober, who expressed to you their full confidence in him. Many of us in Omaha know Mr. Irvine to be a self-sacrificing Christian man, who is devoting his 1if2 to work among the poor, for which he receives the meager compensation of but $500 per year, $300 of this being paid by the Mission board in New York. In order to do work upon the bottoms among the submerged of Omaha he resigned a position under the Church Extension so- ciety at §1,000, and accepted half that s He also declined a call to the Central Pres- byterian church of New York City as as- sistant pastor at a handsome salary, so that your charge that he is in Christian simply for the money there Is in it Is proved to be an error. When in New York City recently T took occasion to make inquiries about Mr. Irvine and fully satisfied myseif that he Is worthy the confidenc2 and support of this commu- nity. The whole matter gone over in youl ticles was fully investigated by a committee of | prominent New York business men at Mr | Trvine's request, while.h» was at work in that city, who a re me that nothing could be found to throw a shadow upon Mr. Ir- | vine's character, and that he had done for his wife and family all that could be ex- pected of any man. The letters printed by you are written by persons comparatively unknown, and in order to do full justice T urge you to communicate with the following persons with reference to Mr. Irvine, and then publish their replics in full in both your morning and evening editions. Morris K. Jesup, banker and philanthro pist of New York City; Dr. A. F. Schauffler, superintendent of the New York City Mis- sion; Dr. Howard Duffield, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, New York; Rev. Wilton Marle Smith, pastor of the Central Presbyterian church, New York; or any of the officers of either of these churches. C. A.

His reputation may be assailed, but if he has character he will be able to maintain his reputation. There has been no disposition to at- | tack Mr. Irvine or to blacken his repu- tation. If anything, The Bee has been | very considerate in refraining from un- fayorable comment which it might have made concerning his peculiar actions as a husband and father, and in suppross- ing some charges that reflect seriously | upon his manhood. and other to resent It was the misfortune of Mr. Irvine that he entered the law courts of Omaha just as soon as the statutes would permit to seek a divorce from a defenseless wife 1,500 miles away upon charges that carried upon their face tlie suspicion that they were trumped up to get rid of a marital partnership that nad become di \ble.

He held that any saloon_keeper, ostensibly running under the provisions of the mulct law, must prove tho sufficiency of the petition authorizing tho county auditor to issue certific: The sa lcon men are thus compelled one at a time to prove that a majority of their fellow citizens want them to run their places It will be a practical impossibility for them to do this in most of the counties of the state. It is even doubtful if they can do it in Woodbury county. This opinion, from the highest court, apparently puts an end to all pretense of the satisfactoriness of the law.
