Resu omission in Kansas.
Lenrenlporth Standard.

IItUNDWWUTUT
The feeling IN favor of resubmission of
the prohibltory law or the calling Of con-
stitutional convention SO that we can have
high license instead of mock prohibition is
growing all over the state. 1t is especially
strong in the larger cities, not, as many will
claim, because the lawless elements predom-
mate in them, but because the evils OF the
present law are there more glaring.

WHERE DID THE MONEY GO?

Bank as Busted.
Frank b. johnson and his attorney, have
returned from Sidney.
They report that they found the bank, Of
which Chat Morgan was cashier, had COM
pletely collapsed. The only money on hand
was what had been turned in by depositors
the morning Morgan killed himself which
amounted to about 500, ana n few bills Of
credit. II is believed that something like
5000, of individual deposits, all the negot-
able securities and every thing else in pos
session Of the bank will be lost in the wreck.
Mr.. Johnson says that great injustice has
been done HIM in reports to tho effect
that he was Morgan's partner in
the business. The only connection
he ever mad with the bank was in loanlng

A NEW FORM OF SPECULATION.

That conservative trade journal, The
New York Commercial Bulletin, has
sounded the alarm in calling attention
to the dangerous phase of current spec
ulation now cropping out by the deal
ings in trust certificates. Within the
past few weeks the large profits of the
sugar trust, the substantial character of
the Standard Oil trust, and the promise
OF large returns from the lead trust have
had an influence to bring these and
other trust securities prominently be-
fore the market. In consequence they
have become tempting bait and have
eagerly been sought after for specu-
lative purposes little short of craze.
There is danger in this buoyancy which
indicates confidence in the eff
cacy of trade combinations to
swell profits, and holds out
such great inducements to form
trusts of all kinds. AS we'll pointed
out, the rapid growth and multiplica-
tion OF trusts is in itself dangerous and
demoralizing to legitimate business.
When, moreover, speculation is added
the evil becomes ten times worse. For
the very moment that trust certificates
controlling great industries are made
the pawns of speculators, it is but
question OF a short time when important
departments of trade will be subjected
TO all the disturbing influences of stock
manipulation for speculative purposes.
When, moreover, it is notorious that the
trust is no more nor less than secret
combination under the absolute control
OF small ring OF manipulators, who can
nix everything to their advantage and

ATTEMPTING TO BLEED THE CITY.
There is a chance for delay of two years
longer in the building of the city hall. There
is suit in the courts for fourteen thousand
dollars by the Brennan Bros, which may
last for this length of time if carried to the
highest courts The fact that it is a matter
of record that the Brennans accepted what
the city gave them under protest, and at once
brought suit for the remainder, is one of con-
siderable Importance at the preset time.
The foundation, which the new architects
desire TO have removed is the evidence in
the case. Upon the foundation the Brennan
suit rests. If the suit lasts for two years the
foundation will have to remain as evidence
for the same time. The better way out is
compromise that will result in the with
drawal of the suit. it.-Republican.
Some money Is due the Brennans GER
tainly. 1t will be a good idea to settle on the
amount and secure the withdrawal OF the
suit, II they will rebate interest on their
claim it ought to be paid. The city owes it.
and it should not delay public improvements
trying TO dodge its debts.
Thisis brazen attempt to bolster up
claim which everybody in Omaha
knows to be founded on fraud. The
manifest object is to bleed the city
under pretense that there is great dan
ger Of further delay in the erection OF
the city hall.
1t is transparent piece of juggling
jobbery that should be nipped IN the
bud. The assertion that the city hall
ruin must be preserved for several years
just as Brennan & Co. have left them
until the courts have reached a
final decision upon their bogus
claim is simply preposterous. A
boy OF twelve would know better.
AS wei! might we contend that the
South Omaha viaduct, which In falling
to pieces injured several workingmen,
must be preserved in its wrecked condi-
tion, if any one of the injured persons
should see fit to prosecute personal
damage suit in the courts.
And why should any paper advise the
council, with such absurd threats, to
pay fourteen thousand dollars more
to the Brennansp Is it not as
plain as the nose on mans
face that Frank Johnson, who controls
the utterances OF the Republican, is be-
hind the screen trying to work the city
in the interest of the claimants2 No
body will deny Mr.. Johnson the right
to invest his money in newspaper VEN
lures any more than in any other Wild
cat speculation. Nobody win contend
that Mr.. Johnson must coniine himself
to the business OF money lending at any
rate of interest which contractors for
public works are wiling TO pay.

A CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.

EDITOR BULLETIN: AS the pre-
sent constitution seems to be an un-
savory morsel for very large ma
jority of the best people throughout
the islands, and appears to be the
sole cause of our trials and tribula-
tions here, why would it not be adj
visable TO have new constitution
carefully and considerably drawn
up, then call n constitutional con-
vention and put it TO vote before the
whole people. Then it will be
hailed as constitution by the voice
of the people and satisfactory to all
concerned; and will command that
respect and veneration which the
present one, born in hurry and
jumbled together, can never COM
mand. Then again it would be
looked upon by other powers with a
kindly eye rs the dawn of peace and
friendly feeling which should and
can be made to shine again AS of
yore throughout the kingdom. And
then what n splendid opportunity it
will give those very pious and most
devout followers of the mighty dol
lar to atone in measure for the
great sin they committed when they
pressed the constitution in its pre-
sent unsatisfactory form upon a
''too friendly and magnanimoLs
people. +" JUSTICE.

interests Of the country, which
means, TO 4 large extent, sugar, is
helping to bring the country TO his

which places money getting first and
foremost in the land, and getting it
from sugar is not Christian pro-
cess, because it cannot OF will not
pay fair wages TO the tiller of the

To any planter that will vote for
his pocket. because that is what he
is here for, we would say, that you
'may he successful in your enterprise

the same sordid views remain with
you, curse TO yourself and your
posterity, and that the poor man
with higher views of life is noble
man TO you and yours. IL is right
TO protect property and commercial
interests when they run parallel with
the right, but the time has come IN
the history of this country, when
rights that should bc dearer 10 every

rights subservient TO commercial in.

HORRlD MANUSCRIPTS.

A contributor to the Boston
Writer, arguing against plea for
longhand contractions, says, ut is
certain that every editor has 'declin-
ed with thanks, or tossed into the
waste basket, 4 manuscript that
would have been printed could it
have been given To the compositors
without an hours labor at revision. "
The evil referred to by implication
in this extract is much more griev-
Gus in small towns than in large
ones, for in the former the editor
has to write articles as well as edit
those of other people. One Of the
severest strains on the editor Of q
Honolulu newspaper is caused by
the necessity laid upon him. and
which has to he met in the intervals
between other duties, of not only
whipping outside contributions into
literary form but standing by To
translate their hieroglyphics to the
compoSitors. Pale scrawling with
hard pencil on ilabby paper, capitals
sown broadcast where not needed,
reckless photography, dashes for all
kinds of punctuation marks, con-
fractions that have to be marked for
spelling out, attempts at picturesque
diction where plain language is
wanted, and profusion of pen
flourishcs that obstruct the neces-
sary process OF revision, are some of
the tribulations mingled with such
ahominations as RS that look like
ma proper names written studiously
obscure, manuscripts rolled instead
of folded land verbosity indicating the
conceit that there is nothing better
than "your obedient servants" lucu-
brations TO "fill the paper" which
send the editor dazed and half blind

hours of labor than anybody else

Thought from Young Men.

Professor Henry Drummnnd, whose
Natural Law IN the Spiritual World"
made SO much stir in the void, is de-
scrlbed to be tall. slim, fair young
man, with trim mustache and we'll
fitting fr0ck coat, and resembling an
officer of the guards rather than lec-
turer at a university" 1t seems to be
surprising to many that he should not
he elderly, spectacled, shabby aud
cranky, but tho reasonable mind will
admit that the present is just the era
to expect sound judgment aud pro-
found thought from young men. In
other ages young men gave their youth
to folly exclusively and were not IN a
state of health at the age of 80 to see
clearly or moraliZe effectively. Seventy
years or SO gave man author ty as a
philosopher, but the modern system of
college athletics Keeps mans phys
cal health strong while his mind de-
velops, so that. unless our collegians
are wllfully vicious, the coming cen
tury should produce a finer set of
minds and bodies than did ancient
Greece.
