The plaintiff was there, and identified the

Steps are being taken by the off 'ers
Of the Nebraska Fsrmerss' Alliance
towards a complete reorganization OF
that body. The changes to be made
are In the line Of concentration of
energy. Inactive Alliances are to be
discontinued, weak organizations to be
combined, and all working bodies
are to be rechartered while the field
work Is to be extended Into every
county In the state, with q view to in.
creasing at once the local strength and
the general Usefulness OF the body In
Nebraska. This Is az It should be,
and Secretary Burrows has Issued q

Through the influence Of the Alliance,

Of which a majority of the member,

views formulated In the Alliance

much needed legislation. While every

which must after bs carried at the
expense of the central portion of
town. There Is a constant call for
heavy expenditures in grading and
repairing the streets In the outskirts
which greatly decreases the amount
available for making the best built
and most populous parts of Omaha
healthy and respectable. Large de-
mands are made on the general fund
compared with which the amount
returned for taxes on real estate and
personal property Is In most cases
small.
IT we intend to permanently improve
Omaha We must go about 1t in q sys.
tematIc manner. The most thickly
settled and heavily tax paying portions
ought to be frat improved. When
the streets In the outskirts and addi-
lions are well built up and demand
large outlays of money, 1t will be time
enough tc expsnd It. But in the
meantime the board of public works
and the city council should devote the
principal part of their attention to
making improvements In those por-
lions of the city where property can
bear the expense of the assess.
ments. When the section between
Ninth and Twenty.second and Jack
son and lard streets have been
thoroughly graded and paved, 1t will
be time to talk about improving other
portions of Omaha.
OF course, ever In the additions, the
streets ought to be kept p~assable, and
the sidewalks maintained. That goes
without saying. But concentration

TIE Massachusetts Legislature has
adopted q resolution certifying to the
ability, public services, and integrity
Of the late Cakes Aames, and asking
the congress- of the United States to
take similar action. MI. Ames was
q member of congress during q stormy
period of our national history. He
was sincerely and firmly devoted to
the cause of the Union. In the rec.
ords of the several congresses that sat
during his term of public service, his
name will always be found among
those who voted not only for the
maintenance of the Union, It's armies,
and Its various defenses, but for
the measures deemed radical and
extra hazardous by many who
thought that the end of all things
was near at hand. Mr.. Andes was q

MURAT HALsTED is still ssnguine of
republican success In 1884. He says:
"Several times several persons have
said that the republican party was
played out and that the democracy
had the future tied up in an old silk
handana handkerchief with q little
snuff on 1t, but several times the
prophets of the passage of political
power from those who believed In the
Nation of,the United States, have been
proven FALSE"
When General Grant, as president,
had disappointed the expectations of
his best friends, and became the boss
of the bosses, and was reelected to
the presidency, Notwithstanding his
mistakes, which were multitudinous
and manifest, the people at large,
feeling that he was a man whose ser.
vices In time of trouble had been SO
great that he should be forgiven for
many sins In the better days he had
helped to produce, rebuked the rag
calls about him by the election of q
democratic house of representatives
and 10 democratic governors in states
that had been republican.
This was a pretty heavy blow, enc
yet the democracy have not come into
the unqualified possession of unlim
tied power. No man has since thu
war been elected president who wa
not at once an Ohio man and a repub
licsn.
We feel warranted, therefore, IL
saying to Mr.. Roscoe Conkling, tn,
great lawyer, and Mr.. Howard Car

they should not despair of the repub'
lie. The republican party will carr,
