The Governor Goes to Texas,
THE SULTAN IN TROUBLE.
A Conspiracy Against Him, and His
Brother Falls in Love.


NEW York, May 22.-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE. Mail advices from Constantine
pie state that a serious palace conspiracy for
deposng the sultan was discovered In the
nick of time, and as consequence thera
have been large number of mysterious
arrests. The Times has been confscated
three times within month, and the Daily
Chronicle has been interdicted altogether.
The sultan was so unnerved by the discovery
that he sent for Sir William White and
asked for his advice. Sir William answered
that the sultan could only live in safety if he
put down his harem, not as a question Of
morals, but as matter of policy, seeing that
1t was impossible to exercise supervision over
an establishment of 300 ladies and their
households.
The man who would come to the throne IL
Abdul Hamid were deposed is his brother,
Rechad Pasha, who is virtually prisoner at
Yildiz Kiosk, for he cannot go outside the
garden gates without leave and he never
gets permission to take walk or drive alone.
Rechad is man of modern ideas, and lately
he fell in love with an English girl whom he
met boating on the Bosphorus, and to whom he
proposed marriage after weeks acquaint-
anceship. The sultan, hearing of this affair,
has npped his brothers. suit in the bud by
ordering the young lazy to leave Constants

The affair at Forest City'grew out OF
a school district election, but this was
merely the opportunity for venting an
tagonisms that have existed for years.
White men were involved on both sides,
so that it was not so entirely race con-
flict as were the affairs in Louisiana,
vet it was the demand of the colored re-
publicans that they should have the
representation they were entitled
to, and which they proposed to insist
upon, that brought on the conflict.
The accounts agree shat there was bad
temper on both sides, and that each
party was guilty of incorporate utter
ances. The blame Of this may rest
equally on both parties, but the fact re-
mains that on the one side there was
demand for simple justice, which. had 1t
been accorded, would have averted the
conflict with its resultant bloodshed.
And what is hardly less to be deplored
is the fact that no one is likely to he
held responsible for at least two cold
blooded assassinations incident to
this affair. The immunity OF the as
sassins of Clayton will probably be re-
peated in the case of those who pursued
the wounded colored man, Neely, TO his
hiding place and riddled him with bull
lets. The authorities are either in SYM
pathy with the assassins or too cow
ardly to hunt them down.
Southern democrats can not justly
complain If these events create in the
minds of the republicans in the north n
distrust OF their patriot assurances and
loyal promises. Local though these
outrages have been, when those who
are responsible for them escape all pun
ishmeut, when the authorities do not
even make an attempt to bring any one
to Justice, they must be regarded as
evidences of u prevailing spirit and sem
timent with which those who are
charged with administering the laws
and preserving the peace and order of
society are in full accord. And reflect
ing that most of those who are in au-
thority in the south owe their positions
to just such methods, and perhaps ex-
pect to rely upon them for future pre-
ferment, the explanation of their in
difference to such occurrences as we
refer to is apparent.

LEFT THEM RESUBMIT IT.

The mere fact that the proposition
to issuse three hundred thousand dol
lars of school bonds has been voted down
does not justify the board of education in
refusing to resubmit a modified propo-
sition. The lack of interest manifested
by our citizens in the proposed erection
of needed school buildings is by no
means to be taken as popular express
sion against further school house
buildings in Omaha. While it is true
that ninety per cent of the voters Of
Omaha abstained from voting last Sat-
urday, it does not follow that the peo-
pie are opposed to a rational
policy for maintaining our public
schools. 1t goes without saying that
the bonds would have carried if the
board had listened to unbiased advice.
dropped the High school addition
scheme and limited the estimate for
any new school house to thirty thousand
dollars.
The vote against the bonds was largely
one of ignorance, prejudice and stupid
idea that to issue bonds would mater
tally increase our taxes. Personal
animosity against members of the
board was chiefly responsible for the
impression created in certain quarters
that the board intended to use the pro-
ceeds of the bonds for running the
schools, when its income from
licenses and fines should be sutfi-
cient to maintain them. Fully one
third of the vote cast against the bonds
was under this delusion, whereas the
a dollar of the proceeds OF bonds except
for the purchase of school lots and the
construction of school houses. Those
who voted against the bonds on account
of high taxes were equally deluded.
There is no difference to the taxpayer
whether the levy IS made to pay in
terest on bonds or to pay rent for store
rooms and dwellings converted into
school-rooms. Rented school-rooms are
at best a makeshift and not one out of
ten is fitted for the accommodation of
teachers and pupils.
Omaha can not have efficient schools
without commodious school houses. The
erection of these buildings during the
present season is imperative. They
should be built this summer because we
will need them next winter, and be-
cause their construction will materially
help to hold US up against decline OF
building operations and lack of employ
ment for workingmen.
Since we arc to have a school board
election on the first Monday in June
why not resubmit the revised bond
proposition on the same day? There
will be interest enough worked up
meantime to draw respectable vote,
and there is no doubt whatever that
two hundred thousand dollars for school
houses and sites will be voted by large
majority.

At THE FRONT OF THE PROCESSION
A city can not stand still any moro

This can not be done by depending upon
natural advantages and waiting for for

execute projects that will afford steady
employment for workingmen and
put INTO circulation among our
merchants the enormous surplus
they have accumulated in our
banks. They have made their money
in Omaha, and they ought to keep on
turning it over, not by cent per cent
loans, but by investing it in factories,
