J. m. Johnston, for nearly twenty years
connected with this paper, patriotic cit.
izen, . brave and modest soldier,
an able, careful and conscientious
writer, has at last succumbed to death
after long and painful illness. Hosts Of
friends will mourn his loss while
admitting that the hand Of death fell with
the guidance Of mercy, In shortening the
sufferings Of one to whom activity was
vitality essential and death without terror.
Mr.. Johnston was fearless In the ex-
preston OF his opinions and though
courteous and gsntlemanly In all his
words and action, bis contempt for fraud
and hypocrisy, and the keenness OF his
wit and satire made him, In his prime,
the terror Of reckless and blatant political
speakers, whose Inconsistencies, false
logic and faults of oratory were held up
mercilessly to scorn and ridicule. Yet
no man ever had moro kindness for the
weaknesses Of his fellow men or could
have been more careful In the use Of biz
pen.
Mr.. Johnstons was very familiar face
upon our streets, upon which his duties
KEEP. him, and was much liked by the
many who knew him and viii
now mis- him. His life has beer
one Of earnest work and modest devotion
to duty, and death closed loyal RECORD
In all the relations of his life. He wa
faithful, honest and true (; and bring
good passports to the gates at which HI
now knocks. Peace be with him.

to the truth as they saw the truth,
belongs equally to all Americans.
They labored and wrought in the in
terest neither of party, nor state, nor
section. The pilgrim fathers were
the loyal subjects OF King James, and
so remained to the end Of their lives,
instilling like loyal spirit into their
immediate posterity. We OF to-day are
to think Of them only as the pioneers OF
civil liberty on this continent, in the
triumph OF whose work all share alike,
and in commemorating that work it
made no difference from what state or
section the orator came so long as he
showed just and adequate apprecia-
ton of the true character of the pill
grims and what they accomplished. In
this regard the selection of Mr.. Breck-
enridge proved to have been eminently
judicious. His address was intelligent,
thoughtful and eloquent. He said moth
ing to which any friend of civil liberty
the world over could not heartily sub
scribe.
Equally unworthy is the objection to
Mr.. O'Rellly on the ground that he is
an Irishman. He is now an American
citizen, in full sympathy with the prin-
ciples and the institutions erected upon
the foundations laid by the Pilgrim
Fathers. He is a scholar, a poet OF
merit and good repute, and no man
in this country or elsewhere can
be justly presumed to APP
preciate civil liberty more highly than
he. What matter whence the singer
comes if he but sing in harmony with
the best thought and impulse and as
| piration of his timer OF what concern
| is the nationality of the poet if his verse
speak truth and be imbued with the
| spirit of right and justice? We ven
ture the opinion that the poem of Mr..
O'Rielly was in every way worthy of
| the occasion.
The action of the pilgrim society in
| the selection of its orator and poet is to
| be commended rather than criticized.
| 1t was an example of broad and liberal
spirit in consonance with the event cell
ebrated, and the emulation of which is
| to be desired. And as to both orator
and poet, they fully justified the wis
| dom of their selection.

THE New York World frankly tells
the people of that city that they will
not secure the worlds fair with talk,
and that is about all they have done
thus far. They have been agitating
the matter more or less fov three years,
and yet, says the World. the only sub
stantial pledges volunteered are SUBJ
scriptions of ten thousand dollars each
from newspaper and clothing firm.
This is quite characteristic of New
York. That greedy metropolis is al
ways ready with wide open arms to en-
brace whatever, it can get. but
it will not pay for any
thing it can induce others to
pay for. In the present case it hopes by
an aggl essive pushing of it's claims,
aud by professions of liberality, to in
duce congress to select that city for the
exposition and make sufficient appro-
priation to assure its success, when, as
usual, it will give no more than shall
be absolutely necessary to meet possible
contingencies and will complacently
gobble the profits. But Chicago prom
ises to lead the eastern metropolis a
very lively race, and if the contest
should be narrowed to these two New
York will have to put up generously to
secure the prize. The western city was
never more in earnest than in this mat
ter, and that, with the support of the
west, means a very vigorous and de-
termined fight.

THE LEATHER INDUSTRY.

The establishment of extensive tan
neries at or near this city is only a
matter of very short time. Any en-
terprising capitalist who may take this
branch of industry in hand is sure OF
making his Investment very profitable.
The market for vast quantit les of
leather is at our very door, and the raw
material can be supplied cheaper here
than it could in any of the eastern
leather factory centers. An average of
one thousand beeves' hides are shipped
daily from Omaha all the year round to
eastern factories, where they are con-
verted into leather to be resold to the
trade between the Missouri river and
the Pacific coast. If only one-haif of
the freight charges for conveying the
raw material to eastern factories can be
saved there will be very broad mar
gin in favor of Omaha as against
the eastern factories. The fact that an
extensive boot and shoe factory is about
to be established here by Mas
sachusetts syndicate affords guaranty
of home market for leather, and it is
safe to predict that one boat aud shoe
factory, no matter how extensive its
plant may be, will not supply one-tenth
OF the demand for leather product of
the region tributary to Omaha.

RIFLE COMP EIITION.

The infantry rifle competition OF the
Department of the Platte closed on FRI
day at the Bellevue range. BY unlver-
sal consent it was in every respect the
most successful of its class which has
been held since the inauguration OF
such contests. The arrangements,
both OF camp and range, were far in ad-
vance of all predecessors. Colonel
Henry's unremitting work OF the past
four months, gave range affairs and
competitors alike pleasant surround
ings, and field for competition which left
little If anything to be desired. The
commissary and quartermaster depart
ments did their full duty. The weather
alone was at times troublesome.
The result is shown in the scores
made, which mark another advance in
the steady improvement in rifle prac-
tice since the target season" became
an annual feature of army routine. The
team selected for the division competi-
tion is one which may be depended
upon to do credit to the department. AT
both fixed distances and skirmishing
the work done by the highest marks
men evidenced the value of the careful
preliminary post practice and the merit
OF the government rifle.
Ten years ago the average veteran
soldier in the regular army would have
been puzzled in an emergency to make
a score which is often made to-day by a
six months recruit. The capacity OF
the Springfield rifle, its merits and de-
merits, were known to few. Its use in
time of peace was practically restricted
to the manual and occasional drills.
Accuracy in firing was not expected,
and it was rarely found. To
Colonel Blunt, as much as to any
other one man, is due the
change IN affairs which to-day makes
every soldier in the army familiar
with the use of the rifle or carbine,
and which by the annual competitions
in departments and divisions culminat-
ing in the great army match gives hon
orable incentive to faithful work in the
various military garrisons and to skill
in front of the butts.
The Department Of the Platte was one
of the first to enter warmly upon the
work of rifle practice, and although
!aboring under many disadvantages by
reason of small garrisons, shifting COM
mands and incessant fatigue duty at new
posts, has more than held its own from
the start. 1t has been fortunate in its
inspectors OF small arms practice, and
| in none more so than in Colonel Guy V.
Henry, who for the past four years has
devoted all his energies to the improve
ment of the work of the various regi-
ments under his charge. The Bellevue
range, admittedly the best equipped OF
any IN the country, is very largely the
result Of his efforts, and the steady ad-
vance in efficiency in rifle firing of Off
GERS and men throughout the depart
ment is due in no small degree to his
untiring energy and soldierly en-
| thuaiasm

THE seizure of the Black Diamond
has stirred up considerable excitement
in Canadian shipping and political Cir
cles. However, it is nothing but turn
about and fair play, and a retaliation on
Canada for OBTAINING and confiscating
number of New England fishing smacks
for violating the three mile limit clause.
Canada has had a taste of her own med
icine and evidently does not relish it.
The truth is, the seizure of the Black
Diamond for tresspassing on the seal
ing grounds off Alaska has many pre-
cedent. In 1887, seven English schoon-
ers were boarded and their seal cargoes
confiscated by American revenue Of
ticers and the year previous three Can
adlan sealers were similarly treated.
The seal fisheries grievance Is by no
means a new question SO that Canada
has no valid reason for faring up at the
fancied wrong.
