One of the Few.
VnrE Vrimce

The new Bee building is said to be the
finest newspaper office in the world, and,
though there are several of them that we
have not seen, we are ready to believe it,
We are also constrained to believe that there
are very few newspapers in the world that
have attained the magnitude and influence
which The BEE now enjoys, in so short a
time as that which has interviewed since that
paper was started. In all branches of busi-
ness there are many plodders, many failures,
aud very few marked successes, but THE
BEE Is one of the very few.

THE Irish National railroad announces
that 1t is willing to assume all the liza
bilities for the recent terrible Armagh
disaster. What contrast this is to the
course of American railroads, which
make it rule never to settle claims for
accidents unless forced to do SO by the
strong arm of the law.

The Best Newspaper.


1t is remarkable fact, with all The enmi-
ties and antagonisms generated and kept
alive by Rosewater and The OMAHA BEE
since the first day of its publication (and
their name is legion), that 1t is the most mag
niticent piece of newspaper property in the
west The chief reasons for this is the fact
that The BEE is Newspaper, superior to
any of its contemporaries of the dominant
political faith, and that, in the main, it is
forcetul and fearless in its utterances. In
sincere and hypocritical it may be, and often
is, it is independent enough to be appreciated
by the mass Of readers

THE Alton shows very little indica-
tion OF reconsidering its purpose to
withdraw from the Interstate Com

back forgiven into the fold. With the
detection of the Alton the agreement

knocked into cooked hat.

THE railroad situation daily develops

THE railroad situation daily develops
new features of interest. The compll-
cations growing out OF the Alton and
st. Paul controversy are still uppermost.
the latest phase of the Issue being the
claim of the latter that the charges
made by the Alton were not true, and
that the action of that company in with
drawing from the association had no war
rant under the circumstances. There
certainly is some reason to believe that
tho Alton acted hastily, and that it's
course was prompted by strong desire to
| regain its independence. 1t hesitated
long about going into the association,
and we believe was the last COM
pany to sign the gentlemen s
agreement" That the disadvantages
it complains of under that restrictive
arrangement are not all imaginary is
quite probable, but it will hardly be
able to justify its hurry to renounce the
association. A strong effort will doubt
less be made to prevent the Interstate
Commerce Railway association from
| tumbling to pieces, but the general
opinion seems to be that it can not be
preserved. 1t is reported that several
other roads are contemplating follow
ing the course of the Alton and may be
| expected at any time to announce their
withdrawal. If it were necessary to Sc
| cure the Alton in order to effect the
agreement, as was understood wheu the
negotiations were pending, the perma-
nent withdrawal of that company must
be fatal to the association, and there is
not the least probability that it can be
induced to recede from the position it
| has taken.
