THE MUNICIPAL CHANGE.

lO'u1OrTOW bne CITY RoNcfohhohs
changes hands. Mayor Boyd will lay
down the office which he has admin.
istered for the past two years, and
hand over his duties to Mayor Chahe.
In the other executive departments OF
the city there will be no change.
During the past year we have had,
for the most part, an excellent admin.
istration, so far as the business affairs
Of the city have been concerned.
There has been no jobbery. The city
officials have been clean handed; the
contracts have been well let, and, so
far as we can learn, honestly carried
out. The general business has been
we'll administered and the financial in.
terests Of the city carefully guarded.
The only place where there has been
fault to find Is in the police depart
ment.
1t will be hoped that the chan &c
will be for the better, and that the
good work which Mr.. Boyd has done,
so far as it relates to the business man.
sgement of our city affairs, will be
continued. Under bis administration
public improvements were inaugurated
in Omaha, and the people have pro.
vieed for their continuance. We want
ell the improvements that can be had
With the mean at hand, but we want
to pay TOR them only what they are
worth. We want honest measure
ments Of contracts, square work and
substantial materials. And to ensure
all these we want . city government
that will exercise q watchful supervis.
ion over the expenditure of every dol.
lar dlsbursed from the treasury.
The finances Of Omaha are now In q
first class condition. Our taxation per
capita Ia less than In any city Of our
sizs In the country. During the last
two years our bonds have been placed
at unusually favorable terms in the
eastern markets, and there 10 every
reason to believe that these conditions
can be improved on In the future. Our
credit Is now high, We want to main.
tain 1t.
The changes In the council are more
sweeping than In any other depart
ment Of the oily government. The
coming council promises to be q good
working body. Tae newly elected
members are, with scarcely an e1oep.
tion, able and respected citizens and
practical men,. Six of the
best members Of the old body
hold over and the president of
the old council has secured an
election to the new. We can con.
idently expect earnest and solid work
from the new body, and we believe
that the interests of the city will not
suffer at their hands.
The coming two years Of the new
administration are likely to be Of IN.
common Importance to our city.
Omaha gives every promise Of being q
large and substantial metropolis, the
future distributing point tf the trans
Missouri country. All our public I'm.
provements must be made upon THU
bAaIs. There must be no more tenn.
porary tinkering with our streets.
We want no moro wooden sidewalk
laid down In the business portions Of
Omaha. TIE FIRE limits ought at once
to be further extended, and the buid
log Of frame stores and houses
stopped In the central section of oul
city. With cities ~ with men moth
ing succeeds so we'll a. success. And
the rapidity of the future growth Of
Omaha will be largely dependent ubon
the mAnner In which her present dc.
velopment IL handled.

The practical consolidation OF the
Wabash Pacific with the Missouri Pa
cifc is a significant fact to the history
Of railroad development, and 1t de.
serves the careful consideration Of
those who think that state control is
able to dictate the conditions Of rail.
road management. We take it for
granted that all desire to see the rail-
roads succeed, and any state legislation
which would prevent the successful
arrangements of the roads in this
state would be an injury both
to the corporations and to the
commonwealth. Yet here Is a
gigantic railroad system, with $500
miles of road, running through fertile
districts 10 four rich and growing
states, which no management has been
able to make q success Of, simply be
cause, big as It Is, 1t Is not big enough
to hold Its own In Its location against
the rivalry Of larger and better equip.
ed corporations, and there was absolu-
tely no choice between merging 1t into
the Missouri Pacific system or running

Dispatch.
There Ia Q great deal Of practical
bosh In these comments upon the con.
solldation If the Wabash road with the
Missouri Pacific. Every railroad
manager knows why the W..
bash Pacific has not paid. The
road has been worked by gigantic

eaten up by constructions rir O., its
stock mercelessly watersd and its
earnings weighed down by such I'm

that all the pooling and oonsolid ,ting
ever devised cannot redeem 1t, OF
make 1t pay q decent income on its
stock. There has been no lack oil
money made out Of the Wabash sys.
tenn. Tae trouble is that 1t has gone
into the jeans of stock jobbers and
not Into the pockets of Its stock holders.
II the minority Of the stockholders Of
the road could tell their story through
the press it would very soon show how
the most profitable properties ian be
handicapped by fraud and b!ed by
sharpers. 1t is the %silliest nonsense

failure of the road to pay on Its pres.

A Curious X ose bush.

Near Bishop Creek, rancher owns
rose,bush which is curiosity to
flower experts. It's thrifty bush and
blooms freely, producing flower
which is not of very fine quality, but
when possesses the singular habit of
sending a green stem from the center.
In other words, the parent stem is con.
tinucd sometimes to the distance of 4
foot from the flower. No second buds
have vet been formed on the extension,
but the fine green leaves coming out of
the mass OF red make very beautiful
flower. 1t is possible that, by observa-
ton of the habits of the bush and cul.
tivation, it may be forced to produce
buds on the outgrowing stem; and If
this could be done succession of
roses, as though strung on the stem,
would be the result A French fiori.
eulturist once proluc Il green rose,
which was nOthin more than the effect
the change arising from gradually
forcing the peculiarly of a bush which
showed natural tendency to form
leaves in thick punches, and this bush,
rom its present habits OF growing,
might be forced INTO a chain of
flowers.
