B be floc Lost, but not fo Now I the time for the New York Herald to renew its appeals for a popu- Iar loan. 1t will take at least two days for any intelligent person to inspect the entire exhibit on the state fair grounds. Omaha never does things by halves. ““Byerybody who visits Omaha during state fair week will have to admit that fact. After congress looks after the defieit it will find a place to put any surplus it , may discover in Colonel Spalding’s Ha- " waiian cable scheme. England n not have a chance to take the Ameri yachting cup away from us, but it is apparvently getting in its revenge by taking our gold away from us. Well,{ie Cornell boys who went to Fng- land te participate in the great Henley regatta didn’t refuse to row. Tl didn’t mind being beaten half so much as they would have had they run aw: Should we really have another issue of United States bonds to replenish the gold reserve, Senator Peffer would ex- perience a chill from which it would be highly doubtful that he would ever re- cover. If there 1s any one who still ente doubts as to the extent and popularity of the wheeling habit among all classes of people let him turn out and see the bieycle parades in Omaha this week and be undeceived. = The Atlanta exposition and the Ne- braska state fair will both be open to the public this week. Strange eoinci- dence that two such greatest shows on earth should be open to all comers at the very same time. The Washington eorrespondent of a Bt. Louls paper is trying very hard to ex. plain how the talk of a third term for President Cleveland originated. He wi not have half the difficulty in predicting Bow the third term talk will end. The St. Louls Republic, speaking of the democratic nomination for president, -again iterates: “For 1806 a western man or bust.” Further repetition is un- necessary. The consummation of the Republic's wish never was in danger. This year, as usual, nearly one-third of the appropriation for the National Guard encampment goes to the railroads, And among the railroads the bigger share goes to the rond with the bigger pull with the state oflicials in charge. Governor Holecomb is not going to per- mit his econtemplated participation in the Chickamauga dedication exercises to stop him from taking in the state fair at Omaha. This is eminently proper. The governor should give the preference to Nebraska. ] It was the Union Pactile road that led off in the $5 blanket rate for state fair business. The liberal policy of the Union Pacific under a receivership has beeome warked. Under the guldance of Uncle Sawm's court the people are given benefits that could not bave been ‘Wruug from the old regime, THE IRRIGATION CONGR. The National Trrigation congress which convenes in Allmquerque this week will be attended by representa- tive men from nearly every state and | territe west of the Missourl. The fir frrigatfon congress, held in Salt Lake City fonr years ago, emphasized the fact that ivrfgation is the true solution | of the problem of populating the arid plaing and valleys on both sides of the Rockips, The saceess that has attended the limited but ¢ frrigntion sy tems of California, Utah, Idaho, Colo- rado, Wyoming and New Mexico has demonstrated beyond a doubt the fens ility of converting the millions of [ acres of public and private lands that | still remain sterile into fertile and pro- ductive that will provide Accordin gated land irms and orchards food for ndditio) million to the last census, the irr of the United ates com- prises 1,781 acres, estimated in value over $300,000,000. Nowhere in fen has irvigntion produced more results, than in Utah, which before the advent of the Mormons was a veritable desert, unfit as habitation r man or beast. Within less than a ffer of o century a great part of that desert wus converted into a land of milk and honey, yielding an abund- ance of nearly every variety of grain, fruit and vegetables for iorve than 100,000 peopls Among the impor digeussed by the are he Wright 1t questions to be irrigation congress Irrigation Law™ of California, which was used in part by our last legislature as a model for 1 ierigation law. Like all this law has its defects as advantages. One of its is the promis of bonded who under well as its dangerous featuns and limitless sidies to speculntors construet irrigation canals, A test case is now pending in the federal courts to test the validity of this Iaw, under which over 000,000 in bonds hs alveady been issned and disposed of. Another question of moment that will be a topic of discussion in the con- 1y division of interstate waters, This question affects the peo- ple of Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming and Colorado tn common. The head waters of the Platte and its hranche mify through the two Rocky moun- n states before the main body of the am traverses Nebraskh It becomes serious question what propor n be rightfully ap- tion purpe gross s st nvery tion of the water ¢ propriated for ivr the people of Colorado and Wy The division of interstate wate not merely an internal American issu but is hound sooner or later to becou an International question.

One proposition is for congvess to cede to the respeetive states the il Iands that remain unsold on ondition that the states shall use them in promotion of plans for their ir tion. Mueh ean be said both in favor of and in opposition to this proposition. It is doubtful, too, whether the con gress of the United States ecan be in dueed to view the subject from the same standpoint as the irvigation con s At all events, the recommenda- tions of the latter wi'l be entitled at least to respectful consideration. coneern RAGE IN SOUTH CAROLINA. The men who control the constitu- tional convention of South Carolina, now in session, frankly avow their in- tention to so change the constitution of the to disfranchise fully one-half the citizens. The convention is controlled by the Tillmanites and these are uncompromising in their demand for suprema Representative Elliott said in a recent interview that the ¢ n will be deminated by one iden, that of suffrage, “how to keep the great mass of ignorant negroes from voting and not conflict with the federal judiciary and the con- stitution of the United States.” Sen- ator Tillman, who is chairman of the committee on rights of suffrage, is in favor of a plan similar in its general features to the one adopted in Missis- sippl, but he goes somewhat farther. He would not only have an educational lification, but also a property quali- fication, urging in bebalf of the latter that it would disfranchise nine-tenths of the negroes. As it would also, how- ever, disfranchise many whites, it is not likely to be adopted by the conven- tion. The Tillman plan, it is d, leaves out all of the conservative fea- tures of the Mississippi constitution and would simply mean a determination of the list of electors in the state by the placemen of the governor. This las been particularly emphasized by the public declarations of Tilhman on the stump that they would, in the Mis sissippl plan, get rid of the negro vote, but that no white man would be dis- franchised except for evime—a result im- possible of accomplishment by clean and bounest methods. Fhe Mississippi constitution and laws provide remedies Ly appeal and otherwise both to vindi- cate and blish the right of any citi- zen to vote, us well as to attack any illegally registered votes, but the Pill- manites do not propose that there shall be in the constitution of Seuth Carolina any such safeguards. It Is said that as against these vielent remists there are many conservative men who would wish an educational qualMfication fairly applied to both races, feeling sure that the vesult would wholly abolish the negro majority and any immediate fear of it, and at the same time act as a stimulus to the white lvuen thus disfranchised, the muwmber {any | with cisms which att thought there was his re noune did not s THE OMAHA DAILY BEE{ 'MONDAY, SEPT f whom Is varlously estimated from 2,000 to 15,000, and would act also as an incentive to a greater public interest In the large development of the public schools e Dasis of eitizenship. To a plan of this kind there could not be objection on the part of fair- minded men, but those who advocate It are in so small a winority that they re not likely to have much influence the convention. Other plans re- Inting to the suffrage have been sug- gested, but the indications e that uothing will vecelve serious considera tion which does not contemplate the disfranchisement of a very large ma jority of the negro vote There has been some talk of granting suffrage to women, but it is believed there is no chance of this being don As lllustrating the extreme attitude of the South Carolina politiclans who are laboring in the cause of “white su- premacy” it is interesting to note that it has been proposed to incorporate into the new contsitution a provision making negroes fncapable of holding office, and it is said that certain able lawyers in the state are confident that this can be done without contravening the fifteenth amendment to the federal istitution, on the assumption that the ht of suffrage does not include the right to hold office. BRITISH BITTERNESS. American people will not take fously to heart the British eriti- est the bitterness of dis- appointment. hey admit that the owner of Valkyrie had some ground of complaint and they do not deny his right v from the race if he really such peril to his yaeht and her erew as he asserted in giving sons for withdrawing. American newspapers have vigorously condemned the conduet of the exeursion boats,which it seemed impossible to control. But when {hie question of sportsmanlike con- duct is raised and Americans are de- (1 as not being true sportsmen we are ready to debate it and to submit to any impartial teibunal whether in the J yachtsmen low themselves in all respects as true sportsmen as the owner of the Valkyrie and those associated with him. Wao might, if necessary, go farther than this and assert that In every interna- tional sporting event between English- men and Americans we have shown at least as much vegard for the requir ments of true sportsmanship as the Brit- ish have, It himen to boast of their love of fair play, but yhody familiar with sporting ters knows they bave not alw fled this claim. Making eve to withdrs cos- sion to Dunraven as a generous and hon- orable sportsman, it is to be said that he manifested in withdeawing his yacht a spirit more of pique than of anything se, and he did not improve his claim to be considered a true sportsman by re- fusing another opportunity to settle the question_which is the faster yacht, the Valkyrie or the Defender. It was a re- grettable fiasco, but not of such serious consequence as to warrant bitterness of feeling on either side. KA T0 THE FOR Nebrask n truly point with pride to the magnificent exhibit of her natural and industrial resources now conecen- trated at the state fair grounds, Few of {he older states east of the Mississippi an excel or even mateh the products of the farm, orchard and dairvy which Ne- braska farmers, dairymen and stock- caisers have collected and placed on xhibition. In the production of sugar beets, only Californin and Utah ean make any comparison with Nebr: : md that comparison would show to the credit of Nebraska in point of quality if not of quantity. The dairy products of this state will nk with those of Ohio and New York in every respect and few of the great attle-raising es are in position to compete with Nebraska's live stock in the markets of the world or on any fair grounds. Nebraska's pre-eminence as the corn country has long been established. This year's exhibit of the great staple more firmly intrenches it in the front rank among the principal corn-raising re gions of America and the world. With only a two-thirds crop cents a bushel, the corn product of Nebraska for 1805 will yield twice as much money as the product of all the Colo- rado silver mines during the same year. The manufacturing and meehanical industries of Nebraska are still in their infancy. And yet exhibits of the products of Nebraska stories, mills nd workshops canuot fail to ereate gratifying surprise among those most familiar with the extent of their opera- tions and the variety of the materials which they work up into finished ar- ticles. While Nebraska has been under the weather for two years past and handi- capped by the most severe drouth that has ever afflicted its people, the fertility of its soil and the plenitude of the re- sources at Its command have never been so prominently and strikingly brought into public view as they have at the exposition on the state fair grounds this year. In this exhibit we find the strongest incentive for faith and confidence in v growth, its boundless possibilities and its assured prosperity. What it has accomplished with 1,000,000 population in 1895 is only a forerunner of what it will accomplish in the years to come with steadily increasing population and accumulating wea'th developing its vast natural resources and utilizing the advantages of location in the heart of the American continent. Ex-Judge Maxwell has been officially notified of his nomination for judge of the supreme court by the late populist convention. But the populists know as much about probable acceptance as they did befoft| they eame together in state conventign. There Is only one man who can tell whether or not Judge Max- well will run, dnd that is the judge him- self. The biggest thing the Nebraska rail- roads ever did for Omaba is the an- nouncement of 4 blanket ra from point in. Nebraska to the state fair of $5 for the round trip. I'rom points whe the regular fare Is less than $§5 one fare for the round trip will be charged. Any m at Benkelman, in'the remote corne the state, ean ride to Omaha and return for $5. This means that the railroads want to the state falt made a howling success, We venture to say that none of them has rolling stock enough to handle the people their liberal rates will attract to Omaha. see Visitors to the state fair are cordially invited to inspect the decorations and illuminations of The Bee building. They are invited merely to glance at the outside of the building, but to step inside and admirve the handsome court, which has been specially deco- rated for the sion. The court is reached on the ound floor, through the main entrance. No one who comes to Omaha this week can afford to de- cline this invitation to view in The Bee building a gem of the decorator’s art. oc Land Commissioner Russell's notice to the effect thatpeople furnishing supplies to the penitentiary for the feeding of the inmates must have his assent las been taken down from the pub- lic prints. This does not mean that Russell has abandoned the starvation experiment, but merely that the an- nouncement w causing unpleasant criticism, When Senator Thurston learns what a commotion his stomach-ache caused in this neck of the woods he will forever forswear green corn and watermelon. A senatorial stomach, until it becomes soned under Washington rules, re- quires careful handling. Wao have the opinion of piano experts that a performer’s touch is not im- paired by the use of the typewrite That is all very well. But where are the typewriter experts who that typewriting skill is not affected by piano playing? Keep it before the people that the railrond fare from any point in Ne- br to the state fair and return will not exceed §5. The result of this con- cession will be that Omaha cannot hold the people that will come here next week. W. J. Broateh vouclies publicly that every word utfered by Judge Scott is true. Now who ‘will vouch for the veraeity of Broateh? Perhaps Ike Has- call. Politienl Humor in Town, San: Francisco Call. One of the humors, of politics is reported from Towa, where it is said that a joint re- publican convention of two counties was held in the woods, neither of the two countles in interest having given conseat to its being held in the other. The chairman sat with o foot in each county, and the delegations were divided by the line, Division of Utnh. The announcement is made, apparently with authority, that whether the democr: or republicaus’ carry Utah one of the United States rs will be a Mormon and the other a Gentile, and that both will be Usilver men. This statement will tend to divest the Utah election of the main inter- | est which it had excited in the minds of the people of the country at large. ° May Bou Outnt.

He went through tho experiences of the ‘“‘field, the dungeon and the escap togetuer with that of recap- ture. Since the war he has faithfuly served the state in various civil offices.

The State Journal with its usual disregard of truth insists that the Beemer contract provides that all over the 40 cents per day, not . necessary for the maintcnance of the convicts Is to be returned to the state. The contract is printed in another part of this paper. It was drawn with the purpose of conveying that imprassion to the non-critical reader, but It does not provide for the return of any part of that 40 conts per day. The contract says: “The state is to pay me 490 cents per capita per day for each prisoner confined in the penitentlary. I to account for the same as hereinbefore provided. To “account” for money is mot to pay it back and nowh-re in this eontract is it provided that any part of jhat 40 cents per diem shall be turned Into the state treasury.

Auburn Granger: If we remember rightly we never heard Land Commissioner Russeil make but one campaign speech, and in that speech he told the audience that it elccted he would be a faithful republican official.

S SOBER TALK ABOUT THE CUP. Chicago News: Contests of this nature should cease until both sides can promise to exercise common sense nd not shiw a childish touchiness and foolish quickne pick up trifles. The cup stays in Ame where it has been for many years, but chting club’s pleasure in it Is spoiled. Minneapolis Tribune: Defender comes of the contest techn ly a winner, but not under conditions entirely eatisfactory to the American people, whose champion she was, There is hardly a doubt of her ability to win under perfectly fair conditmns; t efore her triumph without a thorovgh test of the respective auplities of the two ve cls is a disappointmenft. New York Press: But the great point of the race is this—that the Yankee boat, crip- pled, whether by chance or fault, almost thrown out of the race by the accident, came forth from what | seemed @ hopeless predicament and sailed such a race as never before sen. There can be no more glorious and inspiring proof of Defender’s superiority than that long, that all but victorious, stern chase, after the casualty of the start, In the most remarkable race that was ever sailed by any yacht. Kansas City Star: London papers attrib- ute the unfortunate collapse of the America’s cup match to' the ‘“‘unmannerly mobbing of the soverelgn people over the water, who, having planked down dollars for a spectacle, insist upon having a good look at anybody's cost or inconvenience.” The evidence "Is overwhelming that the boats nearest to Val- kyrie at the start were fully half a mile away and surely a mile of clear water is enough for a small boat to maneuver in Dunraven's fellow countrymen are only mak- ing a bad matter worse by unwarranted at- tacks on the American people, the fairest portsmen in the world. Denver Republican: The most rational explanation of Lord Dunraven's conduct in withdrawing Valkyrie I from the race Thursday is that he knew his boat was un- able to cope with Defender. The excuse of threatened interference given for his con- duct is puerile, and if presented by the own- ers of the american craft would be laughed to scorn by the English press. There is a great deal of humbug about the pretense so constantly made that the English have a higher standard of ‘‘sportsmanship’—what- ever that may be—than any other people, and Lord Dunraven's action will go far to dispel that silly delusion, we trust. St. Paul Ploncer Press: The Englishman, it is evident, goes off mad, although what he is mad about is not disclosed. In an inter- view Thursday night is re- sorted to have said that he had heen subjected to an insult from the regatta committee of the yacht club. The resources of the Associated press are equal to almost anything, but they have not yet heen able to find out In what this insult con- sigts. The plain conclusion is that the Eng- liskman has lost his temper, and with his temper the courtesy and fairness which befits both his rank and his character as a sports- man, St. Paul Globe: It appears to be unques- tioned that, when the line was crossed, there was no other craft within half a mile of Valkyrie. Her owner declined to let her go over the course for no better reason than out he | which all good ¢ | expres | glamor | that movement a more s: that thers might be Intorference It is a position ol and like. Tt hespeaks the petulance of a man ac customed to have his own way or draw out of the game.

Chicago Delaware Tribune: i £ Senator fair Gray reputation a lawyer, but he is not smart enough to make the American people believe that under-certain circumstances two and one make two, and not three. He says he cannot admit that the nomination of Mr. Cleveland next year would be a nomination for a third term, but only for a second one.
