The Episcopal Convention.

The General Convention of the Prot
estant Episcopal Church closed its
triennial session in New York Thurs
day with special service, at which
the pastoral letter of the House of
Bishops was read. The proceedings Of
the conventions have attracted q good
deal of attention, but they have not
really had great deal of public inn
portance, for the reason that the con-
vention did not have great deal that
was very important to do.
The revision of the Prayer Book has
seemed to have great prominence, but
that was largely because it occupied
most space in the newspaper reports
and also because ii requires q great
many parliamentary formalities. ex-
tending over at least two conventions,
to authorize even the minutes verbal
or typographical emendation. OF the
amendments which were begun six
years ago and will not be completed till
three years more, by far the greatest
part are such as would not have been
needed II the original American revis-
ion In the last century had been more
carefully edited. Others restore certain
features that were omitted at that time.
for one reason or another or for nn
reason, and few are simply designed
~ kTcdlcF cI6StICjtys e0p0cI8llY
in the daily offices. There has been no
change made that in any way involv-
ed question of doctrine, although the
general direction of the revision has
shown that the old "low church" party
has almost disappeared as an active
force, and 1t Is probable that only those
who know their Prayer Book very well
will notice the differences In the new
Standard Book that is to be issued
after the General Convention of 1892.
In this as well as in matters of prac-
tical legislation the General Convep-
ton seems to have been characteristics
ally conservative and 1t is not recalled
that anything was adopted that had
been the subject of any special "agita4
iion." Thus good many questions
that had been much talked about In
advance had but scanty consideration
in the convention, but were deferred
for three years more on the generally
sound principle that Legislation need
not anticipate acknowledged require
ments. The fact is the Episcopal Church
is apparently in a very healthy and
vigorous state, and, as its constitution
anu canons seem very well adapted as
they are to the needs of growing
organization. the General Convention
has no doubt done wisely in letting
them alone.-PhilddetI Times.

poses to put the unearned increment

One Country, One Language.

Justice Gray, Of the Chicago Court
of Appeals, has just delivered an opin-
ion which effectually tllsposes Of the
right of the City Council to expend the
city's money for advertising In the
German language.
This a move in the right direction.
IT is time for general removal of con-
cessions of this sort to nationalities
throughout the country. English is
the language of the United States, and
there is no good reason why our foreign
born population should Be catered to In
matter that only delays their assim-
Hating the manners, customs and con-
ditions of life in Americr.
The strenuous efforts that are now
being made by the Governments OF
purity of their own language and to
enforce it upon their subjects, to the
exclusion of the languages and dialects
of their neighbors. puts an ethical as
well as political Significance upon
the movement to make the English
language exclusively the public and
legal medium of the United States.
And fairly examined, 1t will be found
that there is nothing Of nativistic or
anti-foreign tendency in such limita-
ton. Intelligent Germans, leaders
among the best foreign element in the
Republic. conceed this. They willing
ly admit that the best incentive to learn
our language can be found when it is
made the only medium of recording the
laws and the public business of the
country.
Such exclusion is educational, in that
it induces the requirement of English
on the part of many FOREIGNERS who,
should the concession of transacting
public business into their own language
at the expense of the State remain in
force. would forever keep themselves
in ignorance of the best features Of ex-
istence under the Republic.
The future. nationally speaking, calls
for one country, one people, one lam
guage and one Government, and thus
will be realized the fine motto Of these
United States: e .Piuri6us Unum.-

Wool and Hides.

Mr.. J. r. McFadden OF Silver Lake.
North Dakota, sends the Republic one
of the Hide circulars distributed in the
Northwest by the Republican national
committee. 1t claims thats.As result
of free trade" hides lell In price from
II cents in 1872 to a in 1859. II this
were true, it would follow that the
price Of wool during the came period
has been regulated by tariff tax or its
absence. Now wool has been taxed up
to so cents pound during this period
and the price declined from 81 cents IL
1872 to 80 cents in 1857. Here is a loss
Of 81 cents on pound OF wool. That
is, one pound OF wool had lost more in
price than the price of three pounds
of hides in 1872. So that il the farmer
had the money lost by the declinein
wool since 1t was protected" /" hec could
afford to give away his hides, even il
be got nothing back in the way OF
cheaper shoes and harness.
If farmers would invest twenty-five
cents in comparative price list, they
could see for themselves how absurd
are the falsehOods the Protectioniss
politicians tell about the effects oftariH
taxes Oh prices. But there does Hs,t
seem to have been twenty-five cents,
worth Of such information In the hands
of auy one else the issue would have
been souarely jpinted on hide prices
and the Republicans put to confusion
with the fact that during the period Of
their own selection, the decline in
..protectedn wool has been six times a.
great, pound for pound. 40 the decline
In free hides.
There is no trouble at all about beat
ing the Republican party on any issue

sYMpArHYFRou A NEW QUARTER.

The penitentiary organ at Lincoln
has come to the rescue of Sheriff Co
burn. 1t ridiculcs the point raised by
TIE BEE with regard to the tender
care and attention betowed by the sher-
iff on John Lauer and the Beechler-
King woman in the following fashion:
AS 1t happened that these two prisoners
were acquitted by the jury it is possible that
the people Of Douglas county arc not suffer
ing in their minds because the sheriff, with
out drawing on the treasury of the county,
allowed them some little aleviations of their
Jail fare at the expense of their friends.
1t has generally been understood that an
accused person is to be considered innocent
uutil proven guilty and that their detention
in Jail Is for safety and not for punishment,
and that they are entitled to such lenient
treatment while incarcerated to await trial
as may be consistent with the strict obliga-
tion of the sheriff to keep them in custody.
AS usual, the organ of the penlten-
tiary bosses exhibits dense ignorance
in dealing with Omaha affairs. John
Lauer did not return to the sheritf's
custody after he was acquitted. His So
journ in the Jail was during the period
following the shooting of Mrs. Lauer as
an imagined burglar. He had been
tried by one jury and found guilty of
manslaughter. A man convicted of
murder in the second degree is not sup
posed to be innocent while in the Gus
tody of the sheriff. Least of all is he
expected to be given the freedom of the
Jail and placed in charge of the jailor's
books and have supervision over the
other prisoners, most of whom were
only charged with petty offenses.
AS to the Beechler-King woman and
her carriage rides while under grave
suspicion that she had killed man the

70 WHOM BELONGS TIE CREDIT?
The great majority of falr-mnded
men in this country give Mr.. Blaine
the credit of having prepared the way
for the conference of the three Amer.
icas. But his right to this honor is not
unquestioned, and among those who
question it is the democratic candidate
for governor of Massachusetts, eX-Con-
gressman Russell, who in the last house
OF representatives was member OF the
committee on foreign affairs, to which
the bill providing for the congress
was referred. In recent speech
troduced into the house by Mr..
McCreary, Of Kentucky, ana after
having been reported favorably
from the foreign affairs committee
was passed. In the senate amendments
were made to it, and on its return to
the house the speaker appointed on the
part of the. house three managers, of
whom Mr.. Russell was one, and who in
sisted upon the original bill. This was
conceded by the senate, aud the bill
having been returned to the house sub
stantally as it was passed, it went
to President Cleveland, received
his signature, and became a law. There
fore, in the view OF Mr.. Russell, it was
distinctively n democratic measure, and
Mr.. Blaine is entitled to no credit
whatever in connection with the con-
gress.
Doubtless Mr.. Russell states correctly
the history Of the measure providing for
the congress, but it does not in the
least degree initiate against the claim
made in behalf OF Mr.. Blaine. The
truth is that the democratic house
of representatives, in passing the
bill providing for the Amer
lean conference, and the demo-
cratic president, in signing it, simply
gave tardy acknowledgment OF the wis
dom and expediency of project which
Mr.. Blaine seven years before, as Sec
retary OF state in the administration of
President Garfield, had proposed, and
which at that time the democratic lead
ers without exception denounced as a
scheme which would endanger the peace
OF the country. This outcry against the
proposal of Mr.. Blaine, shared in, it
must be admitted, by some timid re-
publican capitalists, unauestionably
was the most potent inilu-
ence in inducing President Arthur to
discountenance the project, and it will
hardly be questioned that this hostile
action of republican administration
had an effect unfavorable to Mr.. Blaine
when he became candidate for the
presidency. But the idea had taken
deep root in the public mind, and de-
liberation upon it developed its wis
dom aud the far-reaching states
manship that prompted 1t. The appre-
heusion OF exciting European hos
tility vanished under the argu-
ment, every year growing stronger,
which demonstrated the necessity of
cultivating larger and closer CONNER
cial relations with the other Americas,
and it was only when tho feeling in
favor of an international American
conference had become almost univer-
sal that the democrats in congress came
TO the support OF the idea. AND even
after the bill providing for the con-

AN INSULT no THE PRESS.

The managers of the Y. NJ. G. A..
convention, which is now in session in
this city, have exhibited a very narrow
minded spirit in dealing with the press.
This is n metropolitan city, and not a
mere village where money has to be
subscribed to enable local paper to
publish the proceedings of a conven-
tion.
The very building in which the con-
vention has assembled is Il monumental
proof of the unstinted liberality of the
Omaha press toward the Y. M. G. A.
The publishers of all the established
dailies have contributed not only in
advertising space and unpurchas-
able editorial appeals for contribu-
tions to the building fund,
but also have planked down their
money individually both to the build
ing fund and for the maintenance of
the institution.
In contrast with this generous spirit,
the secretary has taken it upon himself
to single out one of the Omaha dailies
for special favors and peddler of this
paper has been given the monopoly of
the convention floors, while other news
papers have~been insolently refused in
formation concerning the makeup of
delegations.
If the directors of the Y. M. G. A.
approve this narrow minded and un-
christian-like proceeding, they have
struck n blow at the growth of the
association in this state which they
cannot counteract by any quantity of
tracts and official circulars.
We say this not because we care a
straw about the official Y. M. G. A.
organ or its possible influence in super
seding THE BEE anywhere with any
class of people. We simply resent the
course pursued as an insult to the
Omaha press, which is capable of pub
fishing all the news without bonuses
or guaranty OF papers to be sold or cir
culated
