In the Matter of Matthews.

The reasons given by President Glove
land for the appointment of Matthews,
the Albany colorcd man, to succeed
Frederick Douglas rs recorder of deeds
in the District of Columbia, are in the
main commendable. 1t was perhaps in
the fitness of things that the Office which
had been acceptably filled by a colored
man of republican principles should be
handed over to another colored man OF
democratic principles. 1t may prove,
also, good stroke of policy from po-
lItical point of view, though certainly
there is no present warrant for an
expectation of this kind in the express
sions of the democratic politicians. APP
parently, however, Mr.. Cleveland was
actuatcd in the matter by the view that
such an opportunity for q democratic
president to recognize the claims of the
colored man, and thereby if possible i'm
press n lesson on his party which it is
very much in need of, ought not to be
ignored, and to this extent his course
was proper and his motives to
be commended 1t would be gratifying
result il Mr. Cleveland should be able to
lead his party particularly whore 1t IS
solid, to feel as he processes to regarding
old relations and the new order of things.
Every good citizen would hail with salts
faction a substantial evidence that the
democracy of the south are disposed to
accord to the coorcd man, regardless of
his political affiliations, the rights and
the cons sideration that are due him rs Il
citizen. IT Mr.. Cleveland could succeed in
bringing this about nothing else he might
do would be more to his honor. There is
ground here, however, for skepticlsm.
But the merit of Mr.. Cleveland's pro-
fessed motives in this matter cannot
properly be considered in connection
with the question whether his course
was legal in reappointng Matthews after
he had been rejected by the senate, re-
garding which there is still good deal
of discussion IN the District. In the re-
ported interview with Mr.. Cleveland this
feature of the matter is not referred to,
and it is evident that the president is
entirely satisfied in his own mind that he
has made no mistake. The well-informed
Washington critic, however, makes out
Il very strong case against the president,
and suggests that serious real estate
complications are likely to result-a pos
sibility that is causing great annoyance
to parties interested. If the position of
the critic should be shown to be correct.
there will be nobody to excuse the blum
der of Mr.. Cleveland in Difference to his
professed motives

AnImmense Magnet.

Electrical World: When the great
iron tower 1000 feet high, was proposed
some time ago for the Paris exhibition
of 1880, many engineers doubted the
feasibility of the project, judged from
their point of view. However, Nj. EItlel
went at the project ard evolved de-
sign which was chosen and which 1t is
proposed to execute. On the eve of ac-
plishment, however, a French savant
comes forward with timely warning
of the fearful consequences which the
building of the tower will entail. He
says that the enormous blocks of iron
running north and south would become
polarizeu, and that this polarization will
soon invade the whole column. Then
who knows whether the four lifts, with
their continual friction, will not increase
the magnetic influence hundred fold.
In this ease all articles for mile round
will be attracted to the tower, and will
adhere to it as needle does to magnet.
Then all the houses in Paris will suffer
from st. Vitus'S dance, and being grad
ually drawn toward the Champ de Mars,
will finally find themselves stuck to the
tower. AS for locomotives entering
Paris, it will be impossible to stop them
at the various termini; they will rush
through the city and dash themselves to
pieces against the center of attraction.

The Only Alternative,

Omaha business men are confronted
with the question whether they shall
tamely submit to being barred out from
Il trade territory which is legitimatelY
theirs, or whether they will take efficient
means to compel the Chicago & North
western system to give this city the facil
tiles and the trade to which it is entitled.
The rich and fertile Elkhorn Valley lies
at our doors. Tho people are anxious
and willing to do business with our city
We have the facilities present for meet
ing their wants, the goods and the trans.
pOrtation lines. A single line of road
stands in the way, and by
a steady and persistent discrimination
against our merchants, divcrtS the
erpart OF the trade into the hands OF
Chicago traders Against the obstacle of
high rates and poor service our business
men have battled with more or less sue
cess by selling at little or no margin and
by patiently pushing their trade in the
hope of making it extensive enough to
demand consideration from the railroad
company. The time has come when
patience has ceased TO be a virtue and
other means should be adopted.
The business men of Omaha owe 1t to
themselves to take prompt stops to secure
an Independent line into northwestern
Nebraska. There are capitalists enough
and means enough in this city to
successfully float the enterprise. For
such line connected with no other sys.
TEN, but built and operated by Omaha
men in Omaha's interests, liberal induce
mcnts could doubtless be secured from
the cities and counties through which it
would pass.
If the Chicago IL Northwestern railroad
refuse to meet the demands of our mcr.
chants for fair treatment this move should
be the only alternative.

A County hospital.

The action of the board of county COM
missloners in making arrangements to
submit the question of the erection of
city and county hospital to the people ut
the fall election will meet with general
approval. The urgent need of such an
institution has been felt for several years
past. Our county poor house, which is
used as an insane asylum, work house,
lying g-in-hospltal and paupers' home, is
wretchcdly unfit for the purpose. The

part of the commissioners TO appoint
committee of physicians to pass upon

which in their judgment will best meet
the requirements of advanced sanitary
science.
