the information that Mr.. Child had with

news.
Judge Race says the Rolfe organ did
not report him correctly. He never at
tributed to Mr.. Collins the expression,
"If was member of Congress | would
do all | could to keep the territories out
four years longer" What he did state in
his Belt talk was that Mr.. Collins had
said in his (Race's) hearing that if he
(Collins) were member of congress he
would vote to keep Dakota out four years
more unless Montana were admitted at
the same time. This is quite different
proposition, but of course nobody would
expect the Rolfe concern to get ANYTHING
right. The Judge is justly Indignant at
the outfit and if he ever again goes cam
paigning it will be only on the condition
that the organ is to make no reference
whatever to his meetings.

Sardinia, whom he represented ON a

mother OF the Duchess on the pater-

rallied early in the century to the
French Revolution, and became the
head of the French party at Genoa.

unusual mildness OF last winter and the
paucity OF snowfall left mountain, val
ley and plain without the usual moist
ure. This had the effect OF diminish
ing the spring rains, leaving the coun-
try dependent on irrigation. Even
this failed to large extent, because
the scarcity Of snow on the mountains
reduced the volume OF water in the
rivers and exhausted the minor streams.
This deplorable condition is certain
to produce great distress during the
coming winter. The farmers OF Mime
sofa and the ranchers OF Montana are
in condition to withstand the first crop
failure in twenty years, but the new
settlers OF Dakota will feel the loss of
partial failure severely. The loss to
stockmen will be enormous, as it will
force them to sell ut very low prices.
Coming so close on the disasters OF
1856 il is discouraging and financially
ruinous.

RAVAGES OF DROUGHT

1t is useless to conceal the fact that
drought has ravaged vast section of
the northwest. Nothing approaching
it has been eXerienced since the settle
ment of the country. The devastated
belt extends through northern Minne-
sofa, North Dakota, northern Wyom-
ing, all of Montana, and portions Of
Idaho, Oregon and Washington. In the
high table lands of the first two states
the grain crops did not escape its blight
ing effect, but in all the states named
the grass was practically burned to the
roots in midsummer. What littlo rain
fell in July and August came too late
for a grass crop. AS a result the hay
crop is failure and the effect cannot
fail to be disastrous to the vast stock in
terests of that section.
Montana alone has fully fifteen mil
lion dollars invested in stock on the
ranges from the Yellowstone to the Sun
river. This great district is considered
the richest grazing land in the north
west. Its nutritious grasses have at
tracted vast herds from the south and
east, and it has heretofore been an un-
failing source of profit to ranchers.
This year it is a vast sun
scorched plain. A largo num-
Der OF the small streams which
furnish water for stock and adjacent ir-
rigated fields are dry, and the only feed
remaining was that in the valleys OF
large rivers. This forced the herds
from the bench lands into the valleys,
denuding them and leaving practically
no feed to sustain life during winter.
AS consequence every beef fit for mar
ket will be shipped out, and IL, as is
generally expected, the coming winter
is severe one, the stock interests OF
Montana will be we'll nigh annihilated
Snow deep enough to cover what little
grass is left means starvation TO thou
sands OF young animals. To import
feed TO any extent is out OF the ques-
tion, as hay costs from twenty to TWEEN

tion OF this destructive blight. The

A New YORK paper somewhat jubi-
lantly announces that "the finance
committee of the worlds fair has at
last settled down to business" The
"businessl' consists in providing plan
under which the people of Now York
can subscribe five million dollars as a
preliminary guarantee fund Ito show
their interest and their good faith in
the matter of the geat exhibition" p"
This is the grand and reassuring result
OF weeks of deliberation by the mil
lionaires who compose the finance COM
mittee, not one OF whom has subscribed
or probably intends to subscribe dol
lar. While the New Workers have
been incubating this plan Chicago has
subscribed more than the amount and
has double the sum in sight 1t is
pretty safe TO predict that the proposed
guarantee fund will never be sub

LEAVE NO IooPHoL Es.

Before the council submits the union
depot and vladuct bond proposition
every sentence in the ordinance and
proclamation should be carefully re-
vised and no loopholo left. The COM
pact between the city and the railroad
companies should contain safeguards
that will guarantee beyond peradven-
turc a faithful compliance with all obii-
cations on the part of railroad and
union depot companies.
On two or three important points the
ordinances submitted to the council are
decidedly unsatisfactory. One of these
Is the proposition to surrender tho
bonds OF the city before the viaduct is
built, and to accept as the only guar
anty of good faith bond for two hun
dred thousand dollars, signed by the
Union Depot company and endorsed by
the Union Pacific and Burlington roads.
Such bond would afford no guaranty
OF n union depot. In fact. it is doubt
full whether such u bond would be
enforced in the courts, even in suit
for nominal damages. There is no all
thority in law for the Union Pacific or
the Burlington road to endorse such n
bond Granting that the bond would tie
valid as against these roads, all that we
could recover would be consequential
damages. That is not what Omaha is
after. We want the union depot and
not a damage suit in the courts.
Another vital point involved in the
dual proDOst tion is whether rhe rail =
roads would get quit claim to the de-
pot grounds and title to the lots held
in trust by Alvin Saunders, in case the
bond proposition fails by not receiving
two-thirds OF the votes polled. In
other words, the ordinance quit
for depot grounds already decided
aud requiring the mayor to deed the
lots not yet decided by the trustee only
requires II majority vote while the bond
ordinance must be ratified by two
thirds vote. The bonds may be defeated
and the depot ground ordinance may be
ratified by the requisite majority. In
that case it would become question
whether the railroad companies would
not get clean title to the lots and
lands without building either viaduct
or depot.
This is very serious problem. While
THE BEE is disposed to support the
propositions by which the bridge en-
bargo is to be raised, we want to be sure
that this city will get all that 1t bar
gains for.
