closer inspection OF lead ores because it
was believed that silver ores were
brought into the United States under
the guise OF lead without paying the
proper duty attaching TO them. 1t
could hardly be expected that the sec
retary of the treasury would counten-
ance manifest violations of the revenue

THE CITY HALL STONE.

1t is to be hoped that the council
will reach decision with regard to the
color and quality OF the stone to be used
in the superstructure of the city hall
building without further delay.
In the first place Mr.. Coots should
not be left in mid-air with nothing
more than mere resolution of the
council to proceed with the work. He
should have contract, duly signed by
the mayor, with specific provisions as
regards the material he should use and
time-limit when the building should
be under roof
In the next place, Mr.. Coots should
know within the next forty-eight hours
what stone is required for the SUPER
structure, so that he can make his con-
tracts for it with the quarrymen, and
begin on the basement walls next week.
II the council cannot find time at its
regular meeting to reach conclusion
as regrrds the stone, a special or ad-
journed meeting should be held to dis
cuss the merits of various building
stones and arrive at choice. In any
event the architects should be con-
suited as to the color and quality of the
stone they would recommend.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN THE NEW
STATES

Not the least important question
which the people of the new states will
determine next Tuesday is whether
women shall be given the right to vote
and hold Office. In all these states the
suffragists obtained recognition in some
form, and they naturally await the
verdict of the popular judgment with a
great deal of anxious interest. 1t does
not appear that the advocates OF suf-
frage for women are aggressively active
in the campaign of any of the new
states, but they are doubtless doing
great deal OF quiet work, the effective
ness of which can only be known when
the votes are counted. 1t is the best
opportunity the suffragists have had,
and it is to be presumed they are not
neglecting it.
The constitution OF South Dakota
grants women school suffrage, and pro-
vides that the first state Legislature
shall submit the question of full woman
suffrage to the voters. the constitution
of North Dakota provides that women
may vote for all school officers and on
any question pertaining to school mat
ters, and may be eligible to
any school Office. 1t also pro-
vides that any legislature may extend
or restrict suffrage, to take effect when
ratified by the voters. The Montana
constitution contains this provision:
"Upon all questions submitted to- the
vote of the taxpayers of the state, or any
political division thereof, women who
are taxpayers, and possessed of the
qualifications for the right of suffrage
required of men by this constitution,
shall equally with men have the right
to vote" The Washington constitu-
tion grants school suffrage to women,
and submits full woman suffrage as q
separate article to be voted on along
| with the constitution.
Predictions regarding the result Of
the voting on this question can have
| but little value. The concessions made
| to the sutfraglsts by the constitutional
| conventions of the new states were only
secured after hard struggle, and the
votes in all the conventions were very
close, a large minority in every case
being opposed to granting suffrage to
women. The sutfragists could certainly
have no more favorable field to work IN
than the new states, and if they fail in
these they can hardly hope to succeed

Convention Echoes.

The excitement attending the immediate
work of the convention has subsidized, and on
the whole the ticket nominated is eminently
satisfactory. An occasional sore head, how
ever, is to be found. The chief talk centers
upon the probable action OF the delegates Sc
lected to attend the state convention. AS
stated by The BEE this morning, the delega-
tion goes to the convention instructed for
Judge M. b. Reese, but the fact is cited that
Lancaster county, once upon time, in-
structed her delegation for Nj. l.. Haywood,
Otoe county, for district judge and that
when the time came but one OF the delegates
remembered the instruction of the convcn-
ton. One of the shrewdest politicians of the
city opincs that twenty of the thirty nlne
delegates, elected to do the will of the county
at the Hastings convention, will remember
the precedent rather than the instructions
given. The friends of Reese, however, pro-
pose that the instructions shall be grated
INTO the credentials AS they put it, the in
tention is to prevent monkey work If possible.

PRIMARY ELECTIONS.

To the Editor of The Bee win you kindly
answer the following questions regarding
the holding and conducting of primary cleo
tions:
Can primary elections be held in one place
in each ward only, or can they be held in
different localities in a wards
Must list be kept of parties voting or
mott
Under whose direction can primary elec-
tions be heldl
Between what hours in the day must the
polls be open9
If two polls are running at primary cleo
tion, as was the case in New York the other
day, who decides which is the ticket elected !
X.
The regulation of primary elections
Is left with the regular committees OF
the respective parties. The intent OF
the law is to prevent fraudulent voting.
Committees can designate one or more
polling places in each ward, appoint
three or more judges and clerks, who are
required to take the oath administered
at regular elections. They must make
a record OF all votes cast, and in case of
challenges they are required to admin
lister an oath, compel the voter to swear
that he Is qualified elector in the ward
or district, and make record OF the an
swers to all questions propounded.
Fraudulent voting at primaries is apeni-
tentiary offense. Fraud and dishonesty
IN making the returns subjects
the judges and clerks to fine of $500 or
imprisonment in the penitentiary for
one year, or both. The polls must be
opened at II m. and close at p. IN.
1t is impossible for two rival polls to
be run at one place. The polling place
designated by party committee cannot
be changed, except by that committee,
and any al ompt of outsiders to open Il
rival poll renders the participants liable
TO arrest.
The law applies to primaries in cities

THE vigorous denunciation by the
National Firemen's association OF over
head wires, particularly those carrying
high potential currents, possesses new
interest for the people of Omaha. The
change from horse power to electricity
on street car lines, added to the motor
lines already in operation, will cover
the principal streets Of the city with a
network OF wires and jeopardize life
and limb. An underground system OF
motive power Is out OF the question. 1t
has been tried in number of cities in
the west, and not only failed, but in
creased the electrical dangers tenfold.
No relief from this eyer-present danger
can be hoped for until the storage bat
terry system is perfected and the weight
OF such batteries reduced to a mini
mum, SO that every car can carry its
power OF propulsion within moderate
space.

SILVER SMELLING IN THE EAs

SILVER SMELLING IN THE EAST.
The closing last week of the smelling
works of e. Balbach g. Sons, at Newark,
N. j., indicates that the silver
refining industry cannot be protitably
carried on at n point more than two
thousand miles distant from the ore
producing districts OF this country.
The New York Times attempts to lay
the blame for the suspension of the
Newark works upon the secretary of
the treasury. The paper states THAT
the instructions issued by the treasury
department with respect to the i'm
portation of silver-lead huxing ores
from Mexico were almost as valuable
to the Colorado carbonate ring as de-
cision in their favor on the main
question would nave been. Such de-
clsion, which is still expected in the
west, could hardly have had "A more in
furious effect upon this Newark firm,
for the firm appears already to have
been driven out OF business, while the
large sum invested by it in the works is
idle and may be wholly lost. This
money was invested because the firm
relied upon the government to sustain
ruling that had repeatedly been
affirmed, and under the shelter Of
which a considerable industry had been
developed. The loss of e. Balbach &c
Sons will be the gain of the
combination of Colorado carbonate
mines in which Mr.. Blaine has a
pecuniary interest, but we do not sup
pose that the injured smelters IN New
ark will find any consolation in this"
The only consolation which the New
ark concern can derive from any source
is that their location for the business in
which they attempted to permanently
engage had grown TO be too far from
the source OF supply and an inability to
successfully compete with similar insti-
tutions located in close proximity to the
mines. The Newark smelter was the
oldest OF its kind in the United States,
and while it had no rivals to contend
with, its operations were successful,
The smelter at this city created COM

Ignorance as a Qualification.

The policy of excluding reading and think
ing men from the jury box seems to grow
like an evil weed. 1t is a very dangerous
growth, certain, unless restrained, to sooner
or later orlng trial by jury into disrepute and
dsfavor. Too much care cannot be exercised
in the selection Of jurors in important cases.
especially in those in which the question Of
life and death is involved, but care should be
exercised in the way of choosing men of
ascertained intelligence, and not IN the way
of choosing those of no intelligence. Ignor-
ance should not be, as it is apparently to be-
come, the chief qualification of the model
Juror.
