The Omaha View.

This extract from the platform OF tho
harum-scarum. higgledy-pigglcdy Peoples
party reads like Il Mugwump manifesto
directed against the Democratic Govern
ment OF New York or a passage from u seq
mon OF PARKHURsT or DIXON:

That is good Mugwump doctrine The
people are going to the devil They are
inisgoyeming themselves frightfu!!y. They
insist Oh clecting to Office the men they
want to administer their affairs, and on re-
jectipg those they do not want. Clubs and
leagues must be established for their
regeneration. They must be taught to vote
for men and policies they do not want.
They must confess that they do not know
how to govern themselves and must call in
their critics to do tho governing for them.
They must find somebody better than they
to manage the job. They must consign their
old leaders to ignoniny and give up their
old craftsmanship. They must abandon their
old system OF balloting and adopt the
unperverted Australian system. SO
that they cannot cheat each other.
Every man must hold himself us bet

The Significance Of Stevenson.

Our highly esteemed contemporary. the
Pittsburgh Dispatch. prints solemn,
ethical. historical and political article upon
Tho Significance Of STEVENSON" and is
moved almost to tears thereby. Coca

rary, as In the nomination OF PENDLEroN
In 1864. and In the action taken at Chicago,

the party" We are then informed that
tho solo Significance OF STEVENSON as u
candidate Is as q representative of the
spois Democracy" and that the lin
vention OF pretexts to reduce CLEvE-
Lands civil service reform pledge to
Il nullity were shallow but effective:
and SrEvENsoSs elevation to the rank
of yice-Presidential candidate is the trlb-
ute OF the party to its effectiveness.
How is it that the somewhat thick and
vaporish air OF Pittsburgh breeds spirit SO
difficult aud ilnlcal? Mr. PENDLErOS. who
was one OF the greatest friends Of civil SER
vice reform. and the tltular author OF the
Civil Service act OF 1889. is condemned by
our beautiful but bilious con. temporary. and
at the same time Mr.. STEVENSON, ono OF the
greatest foes Of civil service reform, Is
warned of the premises.
Without attempting to make these SEEM
ing deadly opposites kiss. it is enough to
remark. for the benefit OF this erring but
esteemed contemporary. that Mr.. STEVEN
SON Is the representative OF the whole De-
mocrncy Just because no Is the representa-
tive OF the spoils Democracy. There Is no
ether kind OF Democracy. thank heaven !!

That Is tho view OF tho people which the

III the Union generally. according to
THIS Pcope's party. The majority Of the
people IN this city arc so base and vile in
tho Mugwump estimation that it Is infn-
nous to allow any ono concerned In the
management Of their party to sit on the
Grand Jury. If u man belongs to the Tnm-
many Hall General Committee he must be
held disqualified for such honorable service,
though that committee represents the polit-
icai convictions and desires OF the vast ma
Jority OF tho voters Of tho city. Democratic
government in Network according to PARK
HURST and DIXON. is government BY tho
devil and tho minions OF hell" and us its
principles are the same here as elsewhere
in the Union. it must be devilish always
and everywhere. as the platform OF the
Peoples party says.
1t is well that the Mugwump Nelp York
Times is now able to look upon this Mug
wump picture OF our political condition rs
presented by the Omaha lunatics. 1t
sees 1t in new light, and thus discovers
why the picture has always been "ridicu-
lous" in the eyes OF "all men OF
sense" 1t sees why Mugwumpery is
hateful to the people. They do
not want to be depicted us knaves and
scoundrcls simply because they insist on
governing themselves in their own way
and not in the way of their traducers AS
the Times says. 1.-The conditions and the
Government of the country are what the
people have made them"
These conditions and this Government
the Democratic people will not now suffer
to be perverted and subverted by Force
bill and by negro domination. That is their
determination. and they will not be swerved
from it by either the assaults OF enemies or
tho folly Of supercilious allies.

will be seen that the losses and gains here
noted nearly counterbnlsnce each other.
SO that tho Giadstonlons will enter
tho third days fight with only the net gain
Of nine. or but ono moro than the eight
secured on Monday Their failure 10 carry
on Tuesday many metropolitan districts
which were won by the moderates In the
| London county election is doubtless due In
part to tho fact that the last-named
contest took place on Saturday. the
only day In the week In which 1t Is possible
for workngmen to poll their full vote.
But this explanation Is not altogether ade-
quate. The ability evinced by the Unlonists
to hold their own in tho Rroaser part OF
the metropolis indicates that the London
ers care much less about the bestowal
OF home rule upon Ireland than about the
extension OF the powers OF their own local
government. Mr. GLADSTONE hos repeat
eddy been warned that he could not sweep
London II he laid exclusive stress upon the
home rule plan. but he refused to listen to
argument upon this subject.
An inspection Of the boroughs and metro
politan districts contested on Tuesday
shows that Mr.. GLADSTONE failed to
recover many Of tho Nonconforlnists
who In 1886 voted for Unvnist cam
didates. although. to p!ense thom, he
demanded tho sacrifice Of Mr.. PARNELL.

has been checked by the Gcplornblc spectacle
presented by thu warfare between the fac

in n political contest. 1t must 10 acknowl-
edged thut II tho enemies of Ireland had

to discourage friends and repel waverers
In England. they could not have hit on any
more effective than that which has been
exhibited in that unhappy country during
the last few days.
A net gain Of only nine seats at the end OF
the first two days does not promise the Glad
stonians proponderanco over tho Union
lists in Great Britain. The prospect now is
that IL Mr.. GLADSTONE obtains a majority
in the next House OF Commons. he will be
entirely dependent fol- it on tho Irish

The Silver Question.

Our usually confident Mugwunp contem-
porary. tho NeT York Times. views with
despair tho possibility that tho House Of
representatives may be led to the deter
mlnation OF the money controversy by q
decisive vote In favor Of free silver:
IAN ATTEMPT tn pass the Senate Free Coinage bill by
the Democrats in the House would he practically con
spiracy TO dcfea; CLEvEiISn and Srkrrssps. II tho
Democratic majority gives Mr. i,ssisos coinage
bill to Veto It will pretty certainty give him his Gel: ia.
cate OF election with IT,"
1t is undoubtedly wiser not 10 pass the
bill: free silver is Il dclusion: yet we are so
nenr to 1t under the present law compelling
Che Treasury to invest in silver bullion
four millions aild n half every month, that
th- present bill will only hurry US on lit
tie toward ali already inevitable state. But
to conclude that the passage of such a bill
will resemble n conspiracy. and will pretty
certainly result in defeating the Chicago
tickot and electing HARRISON. seems to be
drawing very large consequences from an
inadequate starting point.
Tho free silver men are already bound 20
do their level best against both the great
parties. They know that both CLEVELAND
and HARRISON are unchangeably in favor
OF Keeping the currency on its present gold
basis. II either OF them was President when
free silver bill was passed, nobody doubts
that the bill would get square veto.
What then can HARRISON gain from his
vetoiEg the present bill. and what can
CLEVELAND lose ly it?
Besides. it should not for moment be
forgotten that the silver question forms
but II subsidiary and comparatively unim-
portant point in the national con-
troversy that Is to be decided by the
election Of November. The one con-
trolling and a!l-beittling issue Is that
Of the Force bill. with its twin objects
of Negro Domination in the South. aud
Federal interference and management OF
the elections everywhere. The success OF
HARRISON and the Republican party means
tho prompt enactment and the steady, re-
lentless enforcement of this odious. tyranni-
cpl. revolutionary measure. The success
Of CLEVELAND and the Democratic party
means the preservation OF white mems
government in the South and of State cleo
tions in the whole country. That is the
supreme question, and when such subject
Ia to DO voted upon. the problem OF having
silver standard few months sooner or
later must sink into insigniticance in the |
Judgment OF every intelligent citizen.

Mr.. ANDREW CARNRGrK'S ideas on the sub
ject OF dealing with strikers are origina
and in some degree scientific We read il
an editorial essay In the World that there Ii
war at the Homestead Works. and the en-
and fortified their property in order tina,
they may pour scalding water on their dis
charged workmen il an attack Is made
upon them" CARNEGIE" the World adds
"lives In baronial castle In Scotland, his
native land"
This subtle vituperation Is directed
against a man who. according to the World
should INTERESTINGLY permit dissatisfied
lnborers to destroy his mills and smash his
machinery. This heightened and public.
spirited journal holds that Mr.. CARNEGIE
has committed gross outrage in taking
measures to prevent his discharged work.
men from burning down the structures at
Homestead. and wrecking their contents. by
way Of protest against being denied a
higher rate Of wages than that which other
laborers are ready and anxious to accept.
We think that Mr.. CARNEGIE has adopted
none but humane and enlightened methods
for protecting his property. and for pro-
tecting such workmen rs are anxious to ex-
change their present condition OF idleness
for one Of such occupation as the conditions
Of trade admit OF. Instead Of providing
muskets and bayonets or shell and shrap-
mel for defence. Mr.. CARNEGIE has set up q
vigorous pump and plenty OF hose and wa
ter. He has q search light on tower, 80
that no firebug can apply the torch to his
buildings in the night time: and all around
about tho high fence that encloses his prop
erty he has strung barbed wire. charging
the same from dynamo with just suffi-
Gent number OF volts to make it exceed
ingly repulsive to the touch.
For this tho World holds him up to public
execration as scoundrelly foreigner
who has placed his heel on the throat
Of American labor. No one will dispute
tho right Of laborers to organize and
protect themselves as intelligently as they
may: but the law Of supply and demand
cannot DO transmitted by artificial obstruc-
tons; and 80 far as American labor is con-
oerned. We have yet to soc that American la
borers ever burned or destroyed the proper
ty of an employer. ever wrecked the trains OF
a railroad out OF enmity or revenge or ever
committed any OF those gross and heinous
outrages which have marked the constantly
recurring struggle between the employer
and the employed. Invariably. within our
observation. the rioting and destruction
have been done by the alien. the lawless.
and the criminal. while American labor was
staying at homo and attending to it's own
business. And il Mr.. CARNEGIE doubles up
any intruders with his electricity. or douses
them with his hose. no sensible man will
condemn him for the act. or villify the lnde-
pendence and resolution that enables him
TO protect his property and his rights.

goes far to show indirectly that in 1885 there
man named wilfrid Murray. and that his writing was
somewhnt like that OF Mr.. Hurbert. unless are 70
that the latter had then started this double
with a view to future contingencies. which seems
somewhat OF an iElprobability:

SIR: With regard to the existence Of the
man Wilfrid Murray. whose name occurred
frequently in the Hurlbert case. will you allow
me to make statement which should 60 far
toward proving that there really Is or was
such man? In the year 1885 1t CHANGED that
Mr.. Hurlbert and !. who are old acquaint-
ances. were both stopping at the Hotel Cocu-
mella. in Sorrento. in tho month Of June. On
day shortly before the 18th. date which I
am able to fix. we were talking together in the
afternoon. and the conversation turned upon
peculiarites Of handwriting. Mr.. Hurlbert
then spoke Of ,Wilfrid Murray by name. and
mentioned the fact that he was often not able
to distinguish Murray's handwriting from his
own He also gave a short description OF the
mans appearance. from which gathered that
Murray somewhat resembled him. This con-
yersation having taken place years before the
question Of Murrays existence had any i'm
portance. ought think. to be made public in
Mr.. Hurlbert's interest. l am. sir. your obe-
