THE SCHOOL ELECTION.

The election of three of the five can
didates on the non-partsan ticket to
the school board is substantial and
gratifying victory. 1t is an evidence
of the growing sentiment among the
voters that the maniDulations of ward
caucusses and political conventions are
detriment to the schools, impairing
their usefulness by substituting par
tisanship for that unity of action so
essential to the growth of our educa-
tional system.
The election of Messrs. Martin,
Points and Poppleton, will elevate
the tone and character of the
board. They possess every de-
sirable qualification to manage
the great and growing interests of the
schools. A corporation handling half a
million OF the peoples money every
year requires the careful and econem-
ical management of trustworthy men
men who are above the petty squabbles
of politicians. and whose character and
standing in the community lnsures
1.-The greatest good to the greatest num-
ber."
The result of the election IS a rebuke
to the politicians who sought to drag
the cause of education into the gutter
the stalwarts that the voters will not
tolerate political bias in the board OF
education.

vital principiesp Will Mr.. Cleveland
yield 30 Mr.. Hill in New York, or will
the governor, with the prestige OF VIC
tory on his side and the certainty that
he has. the support of the large ma
jority OF the working democrats
of the state with HIM, surren-
der to the ex-presidcntp These
men we'll understand each others am
bitiou, and both have strong and
earnest following. Will either step
aside TO give the other free way TO pur-
sue his ambition, and If not what is the
chance OF the party in New York get
ting tog ether? Who will make the
necessary concession for party unity in
Ohio, Mr.. Thurman or Mr.. CampbellY
And will Mr.. Randall, who sees clearly
the necessity OF getting together, go
over to the camp of Carlisle and Mills or
they enter into an alliance with the
champion of protection in the demo-
cratic ranks? BY what process OF
political alchemy are these discordaut
clements OF democracy to be brought
together and continued in a permanent
union? Unfortunately, neither Mr..
Randall nor the SWs suggested the
method.
But it is not difficult to understand
what they would require in order that
the party should ''get together" They
would demand that 1T abandon the posi-
tion taken in the last campaign. In
other words, that Cleveland, Carlisle
and Mills should come to them.
This is undoubtedly out of the
question. All present indications
are that it is the intention
of the leaders who still dominate dem
ocratic opinion to maintain the position
in which Mr.. Cleveland placed the
party and fight the next presidential
battle on the st. Louis platf )rm. The
recent address of Mr.. Cleveland in
New York clearly pointed to this, and
he is still acknowledged very generally
as the party's chief. 1t is not at all
likely that any circumsJanc ces will arise
within the next three years to change
this intention, for in any event it can
not be abandoned without giving
up all there is of the democratic
cause. The party has no other
principle to fight for than that
of a radical change in the fiscal policy
of the government. AS to all other
policies ii proved itself in it's four years
of power to be incapable and inefficient.
Assuming, therefore, that the party
must and will adhere to the position it
held before the country, it can get to-
gether' only by the surrender OF Mr.
Randall and his following to the con-
trolling element under the leadership
of Cleveland, Carlisle and Hill. Are
they likely to make such surrender?
| We think not.

THE prompt response of the cities of
America to the cry for help from the
calamity-stricken regions of Pennsyl-
vania is tribute to the generosity Of
the people of this country. Within
twelve hours after the news of the ter
rible disaster was confirmed Pittsburg
had relief trains and provisions on the
way to Johnstown. Within fifteen min
utes sum of five thousand dollars was
raised in Cleveland, and it's disburse
ment was Immediately put into the
hands of the citizeus' relief committee
at Johnstown by telegraph. The legis-
lature of Connecticut quickly raised
twenty-four Thousand dollars. New
York raised sixty thousand. Phila-
delphia, Cincinnati, Boston and Chr
cago have likewise taken immediate
action in the work of relief. The duty
of rendering aid and assistance, how
ever, has just begun From every state
and territory generous contributions
may be expected. ~ Ifimoney can wipe

THEY CAN NOT COMBINE.

The appeal of Mr.. Samuel j. Randall
to the democracy, echoed by the New
York SIN, to ''get together" prepara-
tory to the next presidential contest, is
doubtless judicious, but those who make
it can hardly fail to realize how nearly
impossible will be compliance with the
appeal. Unquestionably the democratic
party will have to be harmonized and
united if 1t hopes to be restored to power
in 1892. 1t will have greater odds
against it at that time than have con-
fronted itat any presidential election
since 1872, and will require all its
strength. AT present it is certainly
not united, except so far as all demo-
Gratis agree in regarding the course OF
the administration with disfavor. There
are two factions In New York, each as
ardently opposed to the other as to the
republicans. The same is true of Ohio,
representing the free trade element OF
the party In his desire to be a candidate
for governor, is antagonized by ex-Con-
gressman Campbell as the repre-
sentative of the protection ele-
ment. The party is not mar
monious in Pennsylvania, and
generally throughout the northern
states there is lack of unity SO marked
as to fully warrant the appeal OF the
democratic protection leader, Mr.. Ran
! dali.
How, then, shall the party ''get to-
getherY' Who will make the conces-
sion or surrender, necessary to unite

THE SOURCE OF FLOODS.

1t seems singular that Pennsylvania.
Southern Ohio, Maryland, West Vir-
ginia and the District of Columbia
should have been simultaneously Wis
tied with tremendous floods, which have
caused vast and deplorable loss of life
and property. Why those great water
courses, the rivers Susquehanna, Patap-
SEQ, Potomac, and, to but a slightly
less degree, the Allegheny, Schuylkill
Monongahela and Lehigh, should all at
once roll down volumes of floods,
submerge cities and towns, sweep
away warehouses and build
ings, and drown hundreds OF
human beings, can not be explained
on the theory of excessive rain fall.
There was but little snow fell last
winter in the central portion of t he
eastern states, and that has, long ago,
been melted off the hills and disap-
peared. Whence then the vast amount
OF water which burst forth so suddenly
last Friday night, over such a peculiar
area as that in which those rivers take
their rise
river, the visible outlet to the sea of
four of the greatest lakes in the orid.
Superior, Michigan, Huron and Erie,
does not carry off one-sixteen hun
dredth part OF the surplus water, that
which is not disposed of by evaporation
and natural absorption. This estimate
is easily arrived at; and, being SO,
leaves it an open question: Where does
that surplus water go?
The tendency OF streams, east of the
Rockies and south OF the Forty fifth
parallel, is south; the outlet Of the great
lakes is the only exception; it flows to
the northeast, and it may be possi-
BILE to find therein a reasonable
solution of the problem. Everybody
knows that the crust OF the earth, in
stead of being solid IS as porous as a
loaf Of bread; and the existence of vast
underground bodies OF water and large,
swift-howing streams is also we'll known.
Taking n map Of Pennsylvania, 1t will
be found that the band OF territory
southeasterly, and at right angles to
the centre line of Lake Erie will in
clude the source OF every one Of those
rivers, which have been doing such
damage since last Friday, as we'll as
the known subterranean rivers OF that
region. A line drawn at right angles

THE forthcoming sale of the Mime
apolis g. st. Louis railroad now in the
hands of receiver to satisfy the claim
of bondholders, is of more than passing
interest to Omaha. The road, as its
name implies, was originally intended
to be a short line from Minneapolis to
st. Louis. The project, however,. has
not materialized. The proposed line
has been built from Minneapolis to Fort
Dodge, and is operated in conjunction
with other roads to Des Moines and ST..
Louis. If it be sold at chancery sale it
is likely to cause spirited competition.
The Rock Island has been striving for
some time to get possession of the
Minneapolis q St. Louis. But the fact
that the 800 system is anxious to So
cure foothold in southern Minnesota
and in Iowa would indicate that the OPP
portunity will net be lost for this trunk
line to gain possession OF the important
feeder. The impression prevails that
the $500 is heading toward Omaha.
Should that system absorb the Mime
apolis & st. Louis, the task would be an
easy one. and q new and continuous out
let for Ncbraska's products would be
opened from the Missouri river to the

THE increase in the area of cultivated
land in the United States grows apaee
each season. This is especially true of
the newer states and territories whero
settlement is rapid, and new fields, al
most equal to states in their aggregate
area, are reclaimed for agricu lture.
Statistician Dodge, of the agricultural
bureau, has carefully estimated the area
of tilable land that has been increased
during the past ten years. In 1879 the
four principal crops, corn, wheat, oats
and cotton, occupied one hundred and
twenty-eight million acres. In 1899
this area had increased to one hundred
and sixty million acres. This increased
breadth more than equals the entire
area of Maine, New Hampshire and
Vermont. If the expansion of agricul-
ture continue at this rate the absorption
of all virgin arabic lands is a question
of but a comparatively short time.
